Speaker 1: us watching Vladimir Putin wrestle a bear go bet because
Speaker 1: it sounds like we're trading for Rudy Gobert. Rudy the
Speaker 1: man who started coronavirus, bringing to you okay, so yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: so we're talking Bulls, We're talking I mean, that would
Speaker 1: be that would be wild the because like the bull
Speaker 1: the Bulls were a two point specialist team. I feel
Speaker 1: like towards the end um if they had Gobert in
Speaker 1: the middle and it was just they just it was
Speaker 1: like they're they're running the table with scores of like
Speaker 1: eighty two to sixty six or something, you know, just
Speaker 1: shutting everybody down. The nineties are alive in Chicago, why not? Yeah?
Speaker 1: What's good, Kenny? How are you doing? Man? I'm doing great.
Speaker 1: It's uh. It was really hard for me to sit
Speaker 1: quietly through the NBA uh draft offseason talk. That was
Speaker 1: really that was really difficult for me to just sit
Speaker 1: that out. But just two days from the draft, Um,
Speaker 1: I'm in New York City in the springtime. The streets
Speaker 1: are alive, and I think we're fully in summer Kenny
Speaker 1: at this point though, but yeah, you're fully you're right
Speaker 1: summer one day? Yeah, yeah, yeah, Listen, it's like nice
Speaker 1: out and it's about to get bad. There's only one
Speaker 1: dead rat in the wall of this building, and life
Speaker 1: is good. Man. When there's only one dead rat in
Speaker 1: the wall, you are living. Oh yeah, not bad. Wait,
Speaker 1: so is it like, how do you know? How do
Speaker 1: you know this one? Because the stink doesn't feel like
Speaker 1: too this smell. Yeah, you just get really, you get
Speaker 1: really used to like I think it's a mail rat.
Speaker 1: Just from the odor. I'm like, that's it's a dead
Speaker 1: man died. I feel like he was, you know, like
Speaker 1: sort of like the rat version of mountain climbing. I
Speaker 1: feel like they were like he's like, I'm gonna see
Speaker 1: how high I can get in this building and made
Speaker 1: it to the second floor and that was it. Man,
Speaker 1: you don't make it all the way to summit. You know.
Speaker 1: He made it to where you're at a necrotizing flesh somalia.
Speaker 1: That's like this is a yeah, maybe slightly immature, but
Speaker 1: I see maybe a little too dangerous. I'm getting notes
Speaker 1: of maybe once elaborate. I feel like things were testing,
Speaker 1: notes of pizza, notes of of makeup. Maybe Lee? Is
Speaker 1: that is that? Maybe Lee? And I'm sensing no, definitely
Speaker 1: there's a fruit. Maybe this one got into some maybe
Speaker 1: spilled nutcrackers and that's what we have given it this, Uh,
Speaker 1: just if this might be is this is this rats
Speaker 1: out too? Is that a metstrony that I'm picking up
Speaker 1: um and then meanwhile in l A we have lost
Speaker 1: the skill to identify thunder. Um. It was thundering in
Speaker 1: Los Angeles last night, Uh nobody. Miles and I both
Speaker 1: heard it, not in the same bed. We didn't like
Speaker 1: turn to each other, but we had the same experience.
Speaker 1: We were both like woke up and we're like, what
Speaker 1: the fox's happening? What is that sound? I thought there
Speaker 1: was there were like bombs going off. Maybe um my
Speaker 1: kids thought that there was somebody was taking the trash
Speaker 1: out at four in the morning. Because that's the closest
Speaker 1: we come to the sound of thunder is is trash cans. Um,
Speaker 1: So I'm moving two cans at once. Yeah, yeah, exactly that.
Speaker 1: It sounds like a two canner. It's Angelino's inability to
Speaker 1: identify weather is so so funny. It's like mombs, yeah,
Speaker 1: like like if you're on like this citizen app or
Speaker 1: like if you have like a ring cab reference like
Speaker 1: theyone hear gunshots, It's like it's just the sky. Like
Speaker 1: watching Angelino's look at weather is like looking at old
Speaker 1: people trying to like make sense of an iPhone. They're
Speaker 1: just like I don't know what I'm looking at. It
Speaker 1: scares It's both scares and confuses me. And all I
Speaker 1: know is I don't want to go outside. I don't
Speaker 1: And I'm not gonna ask anyone about it. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pretend I know what's up. Okay, okay, what
Speaker 1: does it mean when the little dots are coming out
Speaker 1: of the cloud icon and the leather app b Miles,
Speaker 1: you had the same time you you thought garbage kids?
Speaker 1: So my kids were born in l A. You were
Speaker 1: born in l A. That's apparently just a we don't know.
Speaker 1: We we know not of rain, but we know about
Speaker 1: dragging a garbage can out to the street. It's like
Speaker 1: the testing blade runner, the only way to tell if
Speaker 1: someone truly was born in l A. Like, do you
Speaker 1: no idea what thunder sounds like? So you hold up
Speaker 1: the sound of thunder and you're like, identify the sound
Speaker 1: and thunder. You're like, leave l A. You're not from here,
Speaker 1: Get out of here. Nice try, comrade. I know you're
Speaker 1: a secret agent. All right, Kenny. We're gonna get to
Speaker 1: know you a little bit better in a moment. First,
Speaker 1: we're gonna tell our listeners a couple of the things
Speaker 1: we're talking about. We're gonna keep up with Couchella, just
Speaker 1: the latest happenings, the latest revelations in how Donald Trump
Speaker 1: tried to steal that election, like that's yeah, yeah, it happened.
Speaker 1: We know it. Yeah, being told the same thing over
Speaker 1: and over again, but it is. It is pretty wild.
Speaker 1: It was more out in the open than I guess
Speaker 1: we realized. And also then a surprise character enters. I'm
Speaker 1: not a surprise character. Someone we've known was probably has
Speaker 1: his hands all over this thing, but watching someone get
Speaker 1: caught in the n John now with all this, yeah,
Speaker 1: the old John's, um. Yeah, we'll talk about Ron Johnson.
Speaker 1: It's been a while, it's been a while. We're gonna
Speaker 1: talk about people publicly distancing themselves from Trump, which is
Speaker 1: kind of a it's like a it happened the way
Speaker 1: regular is every couple every couple of months, it's like
Speaker 1: the cycles of the moon. Um. But we're also gonna
Speaker 1: talk about Ron de Santis. The New Yorker just did
Speaker 1: a profile of him that is terrifying. We're gonna talk
Speaker 1: about whether Cereal is dying, all of that plenty more.
Speaker 1: But before we get to any of that bullshit, Kenny.
Speaker 1: We like to ask our guest, what is something from
Speaker 1: your search history? The most recent thing is I was
Speaker 1: looking for good hikes in the Bristol, Tennessee area, because
Speaker 1: that is my new activity when I'm on the road
Speaker 1: and I will be at the Blue Ridge Comedy Club.
Speaker 1: Would early plug y'all weren't ready for the seventh July
Speaker 1: to night, and I was looking, uh for some dope
Speaker 1: pikes I can do in eastern Tennessee. So if any
Speaker 1: listeners have any suggestions for me, let me know. Your
Speaker 1: boy's gonna have his pack and his camel back and
Speaker 1: he's gonna be ready to rock up a mountain, So
Speaker 1: let me know where to go. How many miles are
Speaker 1: you talking? Like? What kind of elevations are you into?
Speaker 1: Like you are you the yard core with it? I'm
Speaker 1: starting to push it. You know. My goal is not
Speaker 1: to like, my goal is not to like you know, crass, Yeah,
Speaker 1: but like if you have basically my thing is if
Speaker 1: the view is worth it, I will go. I'm not
Speaker 1: looking for like I gotta pull out ice picks. I'm
Speaker 1: not there, you know what I'm saying, Like, but I'll
Speaker 1: do some bouldering. I don't want to be hanging off
Speaker 1: the edge of a cliff. I'm not best stallone, you
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. I'd like to stay on all
Speaker 1: fours at at at the most difficult. Yeah, I'll scramble,
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. But I'm not. You know,
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't want to be in peril. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm thirty six years old. So that's another thing.
Speaker 1: Let's like, let's put a thirty six year old man
Speaker 1: on a nice hike where he pushes himself a little
Speaker 1: bit but maintains his knees. I got knees to think about.
Speaker 1: Forgot needs to think about, bro, I can't be hopping around.
Speaker 1: Have you been How long have you been doing that?
Speaker 1: Have you? Have you caught some nice hikes around around
Speaker 1: this nation of theirs? Yeah, dude, m there's I mean
Speaker 1: obviously southern California. Come on, it's just like I've been
Speaker 1: going up to o Hi. That was. That was I
Speaker 1: got really into it over the pandemic, honestly, like it
Speaker 1: was one of the only ways you could safely be
Speaker 1: outside or feel safe is to go on a trail
Speaker 1: where no one's around a hike. So yeah, man, there's
Speaker 1: like some I mean, sequoias are beautiful. I found this
Speaker 1: spot just outside of Joshua Tree that's incredible called corn Spring.
Speaker 1: It's a Bureau Land Management road. It's beautiful. Man, It's
Speaker 1: like it's you know, public lands. People forget about it.
Speaker 1: You can go out there and camp for six bucks. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Joshua Tree is the most I've ever felt like I
Speaker 1: was on a different planet. Like they It is a weird,
Speaker 1: a weird place. I love it, like it's it's great.
Speaker 1: It's all just like nature. But the plant the way
Speaker 1: the plants grow at that elevation, um, look, they look
Speaker 1: like they're in the universe of Dr SEUs. And then
Speaker 1: they're just boulders that the earth spit out that are
Speaker 1: massive just all over the ground. It is very, very strange,
Speaker 1: very cool. The desert is a good reminder that, like,
Speaker 1: while we've made our lives incredibly convenient, that can all
Speaker 1: go away real fast. It's like very it's very humbling
Speaker 1: to be in the desert and be like, yo, I
Speaker 1: would be in trouble in a hurry out here. Have
Speaker 1: you been a death valley? No, That's high on my list.
Speaker 1: That's another one. You want to act like you're in
Speaker 1: some other planet. There's some really interesting sites out there too.
Speaker 1: That is where we discovered the my son has motion
Speaker 1: sickness to the degree that like he can't go on
Speaker 1: a road trip without being drama means up. Um, And
Speaker 1: we were driving through Death Valley when we discovered that,
Speaker 1: and he threw up every like conservatively every ten minutes.
Speaker 1: And we're just after a while, we just gave up.
Speaker 1: But um that that that ship starts to bake when
Speaker 1: you're in Death Valley, it's pretty great. Yeah. Um. Anyway,
Speaker 1: shout out what what something you think is overrated? Kenny
Speaker 1: A man, I'd say, like, one thing that's overrated is
Speaker 1: having a full thick hairline. I think we've got a stuff.
Speaker 1: Yeah you know what I mean, Like, yeah, my hair
Speaker 1: is falling out? Sure have I been staring at it
Speaker 1: in the mirror for hours a day trying to convince
Speaker 1: myself that what I'm seeing is not what I'm seeing?
Speaker 1: Sure all my are all my targeted ads on Instagram
Speaker 1: for anti hair loss products clubs. Does my algorithm and
Speaker 1: think I am now sixty five years old, Yes it does.
Speaker 1: But the thing is I've accepted this, bro, I'm six four,
Speaker 1: I'm a white dude. I'm funny and fun what I
Speaker 1: need hair to? Like? Come on, bro, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Yeah, Like, come on bro, like you have
Speaker 1: all the advantages. Yeah, I've had a good run. I
Speaker 1: deserve to be bald man. Let me feel a little
Speaker 1: Let me feel a little struggle, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1: So so you know, are we fighting back a little bit? Yes?
Speaker 1: Are we going to get a transplant surgery? Probably not.
Speaker 1: We're not gonna going to Turkey anytime soon. Listen, I'm
Speaker 1: not going to rule it out because there is a
Speaker 1: good chance I'll show up one day with like a full,
Speaker 1: fresh full like yeah Kale looking yeah like like I'm
Speaker 1: talking like Twisted Sister in their prime. I'm talking eighties
Speaker 1: perm I might lose my ship. I don't the doctors, like,
Speaker 1: you can't do perms on this hair, please can't you?
Speaker 1: Like I don't give up, Like I want you to
Speaker 1: shave d Snyder's hair off his head and put it
Speaker 1: on mine, like the Locks of Love situation. Do you
Speaker 1: ever look at somebody who got hair transplant and like,
Speaker 1: wonder what part of their body the hair that is
Speaker 1: now on their hairline came from? Like I had that
Speaker 1: question about Joel McHale who looks great, but his hair
Speaker 1: is not the um consistency of the hair of a
Speaker 1: normal like hairline. It's it's like thicker. He's got some
Speaker 1: real like ankle hair. Ass. Yeah, has had a ankle
Speaker 1: hair head as they usual to take it from the
Speaker 1: back of your head. Yeah, maybe some people just have
Speaker 1: like different like text your hair back there, and that's
Speaker 1: what happens. You never know. All I'm saying is if
Speaker 1: you go, if you if you do it, you gotta
Speaker 1: know where your your male pattern baldness is going, because
Speaker 1: you don't want to end up like Wayne Rooney or
Speaker 1: Lebron James to people who were pioneers in their sports
Speaker 1: being like yo, man, I gotta get in front of
Speaker 1: this ship, only to realize you're like damn everything behind
Speaker 1: the transplants going to yeah. Yeah yeah. So in a way,
Speaker 1: just like I said, I for me like growing up
Speaker 1: all because you you do. But I think you get
Speaker 1: that inherit that gene from like your mother's side. All
Speaker 1: the men on my mom's side are bald. So like
Speaker 1: I was like this it is a wrap. Uh. So
Speaker 1: I was doing those long looks in the reflection around
Speaker 1: twenty three and like, fun, what's going on. Although what's
Speaker 1: fun though is sometimes you take a picture where you
Speaker 1: you look like your hairlines back and you're like, oh,
Speaker 1: look at this angle. Well yeah, it was at a
Speaker 1: photo booth for a wedding and there was one I
Speaker 1: thought my ship was like painted on I look like
Speaker 1: Jalen Roses ship and it was just a very charitable shadow.
Speaker 1: So I I appreciate shadow, Like it looks fucking like
Speaker 1: I'm back, but we're back everything, bro, let's stop. Man.
Speaker 1: We think a chestnut hair, Kenny, I was gonna say,
Speaker 1: that's that's good for a balding man, Like you can
Speaker 1: just buzz it and then keep the beard and it
Speaker 1: looks good. Like if you got real dark hair and
Speaker 1: you go bald, it's like, I don't know, you look
Speaker 1: like it can be a little aggressive, so yeah, man.
Speaker 1: And it's also like with the transplant thing, it's like, dude,
Speaker 1: I post pictures and videos and myself constantly, like people
Speaker 1: have already seen what's popping. So if I come back
Speaker 1: with a transplant, people are gonna know I got a transplant.
Speaker 1: It's not they're not gonna be tripped. They're gonna be like,
Speaker 1: you got surgery, Like if I showed up with it,
Speaker 1: if I showed up with a dildo in my pants,
Speaker 1: he wouldn't be like, wow, Kenny's got a huge dick.
Speaker 1: Like he would be like, something's going on over there.
Speaker 1: He's got something in there, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: Lady Kenny, I would notice immediately on the on the dipper,
Speaker 1: I don't remember Kenny's peen is being a bright purple
Speaker 1: plaster and like angular, it vibrates angles, a lot of
Speaker 1: sharp angles on there. That's not the right angles the
Speaker 1: two uh. Like I I feel like that's a good
Speaker 1: sort of um line of fame that people sometimes reach
Speaker 1: where they're like, yeah, people are gonna notice I don't
Speaker 1: give a funk anymore. And they also reached that point
Speaker 1: with teeth. This is something Jamie loft Us like pays
Speaker 1: a lot of attention to that I like now can't unsee.
Speaker 1: But it's like when people hit a certain level of
Speaker 1: fame and just suddenly show up with new teeth in
Speaker 1: their head. Um, It's like it always happens with athletes. Though.
Speaker 1: It's funny because like I follow like a lot of
Speaker 1: soccer players, basketball players, and there's always like that, like
Speaker 1: that second contract, new grill smile post or like just
Speaker 1: sun my new deal. You're like, look at your big
Speaker 1: ass fake teeth. But okay, I mean you're not capping,
Speaker 1: but your teeth are capped like no other. Check out
Speaker 1: my mouth all cat all cap cat. Ok that's so funny.
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, you see, like Jeremy Piven and PCU,
Speaker 1: You're like, that is a Faulding man. You played George,
Speaker 1: you played the man who played George Costanza and Seinefel's right,
Speaker 1: what are you doing? You need all this? That's why
Speaker 1: you know. I'm just I'm waiting. That's why my thing
Speaker 1: is like a bald dude. I'm always waiting, like when
Speaker 1: science is gonna bring the like the lasic of hair
Speaker 1: restoration back. I don't want to fucking do a fucking surgery,
Speaker 1: Like I don't care enough about that, but it feels like, yo,
Speaker 1: come in here, we blast your head with a laser.
Speaker 1: You walk out with a frow. Stem cells are doing it,
Speaker 1: the white blood cell stem cell injections. You know your
Speaker 1: boy's been doing his research. Yeah see that's because I
Speaker 1: guess somehow there's more integrity and stimulating the hair that
Speaker 1: was already there than taking hair from somewhere else and
Speaker 1: putting it there. You understand, I don't know what my
Speaker 1: line is, but that's still somehow it feels like you're like, no, hey,
Speaker 1: believe in the ship. You still got ye, this is
Speaker 1: this is my front hair. Bro. Yeah. I've definitely heard
Speaker 1: from like him older you know, when I was in
Speaker 1: my twenties and like older bald men who were like,
Speaker 1: you guys are lucky man. By the time you're in
Speaker 1: your forties, they're gonna have like cured this ship. There's
Speaker 1: nobody will be bald, uh like just having done some research.
Speaker 1: But yeah, they were. They were not not happy end
Speaker 1: of the day. Progress at the end of the day
Speaker 1: all roads to just self acceptance. Ye, radical self acceptance.
Speaker 1: That was Michael, you know, living in a world where
Speaker 1: like I mean, when I was younger, I got way
Speaker 1: caught up on that ship because you know, I wasn't
Speaker 1: mature or like, uh secure enough and who I was
Speaker 1: to be like, oh, yeah, I'm a dude who's losing
Speaker 1: his hair. You know a lot of time you just
Speaker 1: want to be like, no, man, funk that. So it's
Speaker 1: something else. And then after when he turned that corner
Speaker 1: life begins. It opens up. Everything opens up. Anything can
Speaker 1: be cured with a little swag. If you take your
Speaker 1: weakness and you find a way to swag it, then
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, it's now his strength and people like, well,
Speaker 1: bald guy like carrying himself. What about coolio? He just
Speaker 1: grew the ship out on the sides and braided that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and we're like, fuck it. Yeah, that's that's something you
Speaker 1: go doing, like trying comb it over. So it was
Speaker 1: like he did, he will do that for a while.
Speaker 1: That was over the end of the road. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: then he said, fuck it, let me part the sea.
Speaker 1: And then yeah, that that's a tough like person to like,
Speaker 1: a tough position to be in when you're balding and
Speaker 1: you are known for your iconic care more than anything. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's like Joey Lawrence man, whoa, you had to go
Speaker 1: bald with it too, you know. Yeah, he didn't. He
Speaker 1: didn't make it through unscathed. He's uh, isn't he like
Speaker 1: real mega and ship? No? Yeah? Yeah, what what's something
Speaker 1: you think is underrated? Kenny? Caribbean food? Because I just
Speaker 1: say some bomb asked Caribbean food on Saturday and I
Speaker 1: just always forget what a play to. Like, I had
Speaker 1: the Branzino fish at this place called the Fat Foul
Speaker 1: and Brooklyn. I'm shouting him out because it's so good.
Speaker 1: It's like this food court under the Alamo Drafthouse on
Speaker 1: the Fulton Mall in Brooklyn. It's like where all those
Speaker 1: local vendors are set up stalls down there. It's called
Speaker 1: the Fat Foul. Oh my god, dude, it was. And
Speaker 1: it was on the Market Mall. That's it. And it
Speaker 1: was on it was on Juneteenth, and so there was
Speaker 1: like people playing kettle drums and like steel drums everywhere
Speaker 1: and dancing, and I was eating Caribbean food, and I
Speaker 1: was like, I love this city, I love this world.
Speaker 1: I'm dancing to Caribbean music while I'm eating the best
Speaker 1: brand zy know what I've ever eaten in my life,
Speaker 1: with mac and cheese and sweet plantains, and sometimes life
Speaker 1: just feels very beautiful. And that was one of those moments.
Speaker 1: I love to hear that. Yeah, absolutely, I gotta shout
Speaker 1: out to Fat Foul and Caribbean food, just Caribbean people
Speaker 1: in general, lovely folks. I know all your cultures are different,
Speaker 1: but just generally speaking, I just with the what's the
Speaker 1: true melting pot down there? You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: So many different people down in the Caribbean. And remember
Speaker 1: when we did Our Lives show in Toronto, we hit
Speaker 1: up a Caribbean spot. We had rutted protein uh in Toronto,
Speaker 1: because you know, there's a lot of West Indians, like
Speaker 1: people from the West Indies in Toronto. And that again
Speaker 1: like as you have like curries and like the influence
Speaker 1: of like Indian food, but also like just it's it's fantastic.
Speaker 1: I'm a big fan. We do allow specific UH like restaurants,
Speaker 1: specific endorsements, but only if they're in Brooklyn. That has
Speaker 1: apparently become Hey man, if you're getting LASI to check
Speaker 1: out the Lasic visions, got my vision a lot of
Speaker 1: Brooklyn specific plugs, even though we are not we're located
Speaker 1: in a place where we don't even know what thunder is. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I preted hair transplant surgery go to Turkey, which is
Speaker 1: located in downtown Brooklyn. All right, let's take a quick break.
Speaker 1: We will be right back, and we're back, and U
Speaker 1: Couchella has continued forward. Tuesday, the January six Committee unleashed
Speaker 1: a bunch of testimony um from various elected officials or
Speaker 1: election officials in contested states, and yeah, it seems like
Speaker 1: we're just getting where they're locking it in. It's like,
Speaker 1: you know, being like he knows he lost. He tried
Speaker 1: to get me to do some ship. I wouldn't do it,
Speaker 1: and then I got threatened and he wasn't coming up
Speaker 1: with new ship. Each time. He was doing the same thing,
Speaker 1: and his people were doing the same thing each time.
Speaker 1: I feel like, and this is like conjecture because I
Speaker 1: didn't read the full book. I read like a summary,
Speaker 1: but that there was that author that I think it
Speaker 1: was Trump's biographer, and he wrote a whole thing about
Speaker 1: Roy Kone, the mob lawyer that basically taught Trump how
Speaker 1: to do things. And I think, and I've noticed this
Speaker 1: in Trump's behavior, and it would be very mafio. So
Speaker 1: I think his modus operandi the whole time has been
Speaker 1: as long as you can manipulate the narrative, you can
Speaker 1: literally do whatever you want, and as long as you
Speaker 1: can afford really good lawyers, nothing will stick to you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so do whatever you want. And I think we're about
Speaker 1: to I think that method is finally starting to like
Speaker 1: we're gonna see we're gonna see is there really a
Speaker 1: lawyer so good that they can get you out of
Speaker 1: literally everything. That's what we're about to find out. I mean,
Speaker 1: his whole life, he's just been it's more a delay game.
Speaker 1: It's not that they like get him out of it.
Speaker 1: It's just they delay, delay, delay, throw uh, throw enough
Speaker 1: suits at it like that. People are just like this,
Speaker 1: we're like tied up. We're the U. S. Government and
Speaker 1: we're still like we can't we can't deal with the ship.
Speaker 1: We're like tied up for years. If we if we
Speaker 1: want to just stick after this dude who's like who
Speaker 1: died twenty years ago. By the time they get to
Speaker 1: any of this ship, he's like he's like a master
Speaker 1: gas lighter because what he just does so much insane
Speaker 1: shit that he gets people reacting to it, and then
Speaker 1: he flips it and he's like, see hysterical everyone is.
Speaker 1: They're always yelling. They're always yelling at me. Obviously they're crazy.
Speaker 1: They just pick apart everything I do. Look at the
Speaker 1: last two weeks x y Z. And then his followers
Speaker 1: are just like, yeah, he didn't do that, you're just
Speaker 1: saying he did it. It's just like insane you're just
Speaker 1: playing a video of him saying he did it right, right,
Speaker 1: that's cap um. So like now we're only as you
Speaker 1: find out, right, people like Mr Raffnsburger and Georgia and
Speaker 1: like the speaker and I believe it was Michigan. These officials,
Speaker 1: they basically like I couldn't. I'm not gonna go there
Speaker 1: with that, like I took an oath like that was
Speaker 1: just a little bit too far response to him being like, hey,
Speaker 1: why don't you give me the election? Why don't you
Speaker 1: just fucking break the lawful down? No, okay, well, so
Speaker 1: check your Facebook because people are gonna be outside your
Speaker 1: house screaming at you. And then I mean, so again,
Speaker 1: these Republicans, basically, these few like elected officials who had
Speaker 1: their hands and whether it was like the state legislature
Speaker 1: or the you know, the office of Elections in the state,
Speaker 1: they were they were apparently just barely craven, not fully craven,
Speaker 1: just just fucked up to the point that they could
Speaker 1: like look the other way for most stuff, but not
Speaker 1: to the point where many people had to break the law.
Speaker 1: And then we heard from these two women, Shay Moss
Speaker 1: and her mother, Ruby Freeman, who they were volunteering in
Speaker 1: the in Fulton County and Georgia, Like most people do,
Speaker 1: you want to go and work at your polling place
Speaker 1: because you believe, you think that this is a good
Speaker 1: way for you to you know, help your community and
Speaker 1: through voting, because that you know, that's been something been
Speaker 1: dangled in front of many people's faces. And these two
Speaker 1: black women, they were at this Fulton County polling place
Speaker 1: when suddenly they found themselves on the like on the
Speaker 1: other side of a conspiracy theory cooked up by Rudy
Speaker 1: Giuliani and co. About how they were walking out of
Speaker 1: the polling place or the state polling station with suitcases
Speaker 1: of ballots, and they spoke about how how traumatic that
Speaker 1: ship was. I said, I was just trying to help
Speaker 1: out in my community and then the president literally is
Speaker 1: singling me and my daughter out for for fucking what.
Speaker 1: And when you hear that, you're like, holy sh it.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's can you imagine, right, even being in
Speaker 1: a situation where suddenly your fucking name anybody and fucking
Speaker 1: anyone listening is fucking name starts coming out Trump's mouth
Speaker 1: and being like, this is the person that's still the election,
Speaker 1: and what the funk that experience is like and when
Speaker 1: you hear it from from those from the testimony of
Speaker 1: Shame Moss and Ruby Freeman, you're like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: like lesser people would probably cave constantly, like whether it
Speaker 1: was when you know, when you talk about these other officials,
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't mean to say that they're like, yeah,
Speaker 1: figures of for profiles and bravery from like these like
Speaker 1: you know, Republican speakers of the state legislature. But in
Speaker 1: that sense you can tell how much fucking pressure comes,
Speaker 1: like you just get enveloped in it. And that's the
Speaker 1: environment that you're still trying to be like this, I
Speaker 1: fucking have to do what's right. And then yeah, you
Speaker 1: realize there there is no limit. There are no uh,
Speaker 1: there's clearly no boundaries when it comes to trying to
Speaker 1: act out this ship for that well, it's gotta be
Speaker 1: like I can't imagine being a Republican that is not
Speaker 1: down with Trump right now, because on the one hand,
Speaker 1: in your mind you want to be like, well, hey, listen,
Speaker 1: we're always the party of law and order, We're the
Speaker 1: party of this, We're the party of limited government, which
Speaker 1: means we shouldn't even be intervening in a lot of
Speaker 1: this stuff. So you want to believe that your base
Speaker 1: is common sense somehow, But then you see like the
Speaker 1: Josh Holly, like those people are winning all around you,
Speaker 1: and so I like to do the right thing. You
Speaker 1: want to think that your base is going to stay
Speaker 1: with you, but there's a lot of evidence to suggest
Speaker 1: that they're not. So what an insane situation to be in.
Speaker 1: I mean, on both sides, right, Like, even if you're
Speaker 1: a Democrat and he says, I'm like, I don't oh
Speaker 1: if I can vote for Joe Biden, like what you're
Speaker 1: talking about, it's like WHOA, Okay, But in this instance,
Speaker 1: it really is like it the levels that they're going
Speaker 1: to should really I think serve as again just repeated
Speaker 1: reminder of really how one party is fully focused on
Speaker 1: doing away with all norms and laws that would prevent
Speaker 1: them from keeping power. At this point, law and order
Speaker 1: only means keeping marginalized people from acting up. That's that's
Speaker 1: all that That's all that means. And now they've fully
Speaker 1: just jettison the idea of like, well that means we
Speaker 1: need to live in a law abiding or or peaceful society. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: it's get the funk out the way Trump Trump took
Speaker 1: coded language and threw it out. There is no more
Speaker 1: coded language. I mean, if anything, you could say it's
Speaker 1: thinly veiled, like it's certainly not coded. Yeah, it's very transparent.
Speaker 1: And that's you know, it's to your point, Like, the
Speaker 1: reason people get upset if you criticize is because the
Speaker 1: stakes are so high. Like the other it's like, yes,
Speaker 1: both sides, but also one side is so much more.
Speaker 1: And I'm not trying to lump everyone together, but there's
Speaker 1: clearly like all parties have a thing where there's like
Speaker 1: a mainstream view. If you fall out, that's when like
Speaker 1: it starts being like, well, they're kind of like one
Speaker 1: of these fringe, fucking freak people who don't know what
Speaker 1: the fuss is going on. Um, which brings us to
Speaker 1: Ron Johnson, who is probably I mean, we give this
Speaker 1: award out a lot, but he's he is not bright
Speaker 1: for someone who is a sitting senator and we found
Speaker 1: out who like how did he get famous in the
Speaker 1: first place? He's what's He's just like, um, where where
Speaker 1: do you start? Uh? He's had terrible takes on like anything.
Speaker 1: Let me just even just I'll just we'll do a
Speaker 1: random thing where I'll just say, I'll search his name
Speaker 1: with the word abortion. Uh, he says, Ron Johnson tells
Speaker 1: pregnant people to suck it up and go out of
Speaker 1: state for an abortion if they want one. That's the
Speaker 1: That's like sort of his repeated thing is like there's
Speaker 1: no such thing as a human. It's just like, suck
Speaker 1: it up if you're poor. I don't know. Ron Johnson
Speaker 1: is just like such a shitty stepdad named too, Like
Speaker 1: that's for sure the name of the guy banging your mom.
Speaker 1: And he's got that. Ron Ron having a real moment
Speaker 1: right now, Ron, who's probably gonna be the next president
Speaker 1: A little. Yeah. Ron is definitely a parrot head. He
Speaker 1: follows Buffet on tour. He definitely has a battery powered
Speaker 1: Margharita blender that he has on him at all times.
Speaker 1: He definitely is hooked on some sort of opiate and yeah,
Speaker 1: and then his views are just informed by everything I
Speaker 1: just told you. So he's out here, Uh, you know,
Speaker 1: he's in the spotlight losing his religion because the committee
Speaker 1: comes out with a text exchange from his chief of
Speaker 1: staff and this guy Chris Hodgeen, who is like, um,
Speaker 1: I believe Mike Pence is like legislative director, like his
Speaker 1: like main like policy want guy. And there's like this
Speaker 1: back and forth where the chief of staff is saying like, hey,
Speaker 1: I got this like alternate slate of electors that I
Speaker 1: need to give to that Ron Johnson has to give
Speaker 1: to V. Podus and the guys like what are you
Speaker 1: talking about. He's like, it's these alternate electors and Pence's
Speaker 1: staff members like, do not give that to him. And
Speaker 1: this was on the day of January six. This is
Speaker 1: like and as right before this ship is getting breached.
Speaker 1: These are the text messages being exchanged, almost being like hey,
Speaker 1: I can give him this thing that looks like the
Speaker 1: electors from this other state. But even though the National
Speaker 1: Archives received those things as part of the certification process,
Speaker 1: and the Archives note that these are bullshit electors. These
Speaker 1: are not the ones that were actually certified, Like there
Speaker 1: was no need to have a conversation about it. But
Speaker 1: clearly Ron Johnson was like, gotta get this in their hands, man,
Speaker 1: gotta get gotta get Vpotus on this. So we have
Speaker 1: them accusing the two election officials in Fulton Fulton County
Speaker 1: of uh of like stealing ballots and like doing some
Speaker 1: shady ship with actual ballots. Uh, and like that's complete bullship.
Speaker 1: But then we have them on the day when the
Speaker 1: thing is being certified, trying to put fake votes in,
Speaker 1: like trying to put votes that were not representative of
Speaker 1: the electoral results in the hands of the vice president,
Speaker 1: like the just the exact thing that they're accusing everybody
Speaker 1: else of. Every time if a Republican accuses somebody of
Speaker 1: doing something, you need to immediately investigate that Republican for
Speaker 1: that thing. Anyone anyone who's like that guy is a pedophile.
Speaker 1: It's like, oh, I have to say, the amount of
Speaker 1: pedophilia like that must be happening in this country with
Speaker 1: like the way that their accusations flow. Damn. I mean,
Speaker 1: Rudy Giuliani loves to throw that one out and we
Speaker 1: all saw him on bow Rat two fully ready to
Speaker 1: go to town with the teenage girls. So that's like,
Speaker 1: you know, what are we doing here? Constant figures even
Speaker 1: like in the Southern Baptist Church now like that we're
Speaker 1: finding more and more out about. But don't start telling
Speaker 1: the evangelical said about where the predators might actually be
Speaker 1: in their own churches. But again, this is all part
Speaker 1: of the playbook. Just be like, I don't know, it's fine. Like, like,
Speaker 1: I think so many people clearly were like, we're doing
Speaker 1: some wild, illegal ship, but if we win, he'll be
Speaker 1: president and nobody's going to see the inside of a
Speaker 1: jail because that's we're all counting on this ship to
Speaker 1: work so well. And I think they thought he's going
Speaker 1: to be president forever. Like I honestly think there was
Speaker 1: a thought of, like, we can rig this things to
Speaker 1: where Trump just keeps being president and then we just
Speaker 1: groom his his predecessor and we just keep going down
Speaker 1: this path. The what the wild thing is after this
Speaker 1: comes out, like this testimony comes out in the hearings,
Speaker 1: many people in the press were like, what the fuck?
Speaker 1: What y'all have these text messages from Ron Johnson's chief
Speaker 1: of staff, so they caught his ass on the hill
Speaker 1: right after this ship comes out, just to try and
Speaker 1: ask him, like, yo, fam, what's up with what we
Speaker 1: just heard? You were trying to put these fake collectors
Speaker 1: and in Pence his hands, and he handles it like
Speaker 1: the most panicked goon you've ever seen, trying to take
Speaker 1: a fake phone call. And you can hear him get
Speaker 1: called out by the reporter you know about what your
Speaker 1: chief of staff was doing with the alternate slates of
Speaker 1: the doctors. You're not. I can see your phone. I
Speaker 1: can see your screen still continuing to be able phone.
Speaker 1: Thank you change. Can you explain what happened there? Why
Speaker 1: was your chief of staff even offering this to device?
Speaker 1: Qua story just said. It's a non story, guys, is
Speaker 1: complete non story. This is a complete uh you see
Speaker 1: me alone. It is one of the worst attempts. I've
Speaker 1: seen some bad attempts at uh fake phone calls I've done.
Speaker 1: I've performed given really bad performances, occasionally handing over the
Speaker 1: top performances where I'm like overdoing it, oh man. Other
Speaker 1: times where I just have the phone press there and
Speaker 1: I'm just like they won't notice, they won't notice. And
Speaker 1: he was doing the he was doing the underacting, the
Speaker 1: very naturalistic. He had that phone so far out from
Speaker 1: his ear. The reporters like, bro, I could see her
Speaker 1: lock screen. What are you talking about? Like you can
Speaker 1: not even put it straight on your face and do
Speaker 1: the thing. You know, I'm on a fake call when
Speaker 1: I go like this na for real? Yeah, and I
Speaker 1: go I'm sorry, I gotta take this. I go naw,
Speaker 1: and I'm saying nah on my way out of the room. Uh.
Speaker 1: He couldn't even do that. I mean, listen, I I
Speaker 1: don't hate the game. This is what I do when
Speaker 1: I have to take a dump. In New York City
Speaker 1: is I walk in a bar and I'm like, is
Speaker 1: this the right bar? All right? I'm here, I'll order
Speaker 1: us drinks and then I go use the bathroom and
Speaker 1: I come out and I go, oh, a different bar,
Speaker 1: My fault, sorry guys, and I leave. So I get it.
Speaker 1: It's a great tool. But poor Ron Johnson, though again
Speaker 1: he was like also a big iver Mectin fan, Like
Speaker 1: I said, it's hard for me to remember everything because
Speaker 1: just think of every bad policy. He keeps for it
Speaker 1: harder than anyone, to the point where he's like, we
Speaker 1: all might be horses. Nay, I don't know. But they
Speaker 1: caught him again, man New Raju caught him again around
Speaker 1: the Capitol and pressed him again, being like, okay, so
Speaker 1: then what's up? Like who gave who gave you this ship?
Speaker 1: What is like? What is the deal here? And this
Speaker 1: guy sounds like like me at thirteen getting caught smoking,
Speaker 1: like one of my grandma's cigarette butts or something like.
Speaker 1: I don't know. It flew into my mouth. Some staff
Speaker 1: in turn, you know, he said, we got you know,
Speaker 1: the the vice president needs this or whatever, you know,
Speaker 1: and I wasn't involved. I don't know what they said,
Speaker 1: but you want somebody from the house delivered to a
Speaker 1: staff member in my office. My chief of staff called
Speaker 1: the vice president, Hey, we got this, uh, and the
Speaker 1: Ice president said, don't whatever. We didn't about the identity
Speaker 1: of this person or person do you want to ask about?
Speaker 1: This is a complete non story, guys, he's a making
Speaker 1: non story. The best stand. If this were if this
Speaker 1: were a real committee, they would be asking I wasn't
Speaker 1: the capital security? You know who's in charge of that security?
Speaker 1: This is a total partisan witch hunt, uh, and is not.
Speaker 1: I was not involved in this at all. You know,
Speaker 1: where's always walking to I feel like he's trying to
Speaker 1: get his steps in on this day that he should
Speaker 1: be laying the fun I don't know, I mean, what
Speaker 1: did it saying? I don't like who? What do you
Speaker 1: mean you don't know who gave it to you? It's
Speaker 1: not your staff. You're blaming your staff. And it's such
Speaker 1: a different intern my interns, like the vice president needs this?
Speaker 1: So okay, which interns? Which intern? That's easy? Say same
Speaker 1: the intern? Since when is it a sign of incompetence
Speaker 1: to have incompetent staff that? When is that a reflection
Speaker 1: of me as a person? What do you mean? Mom?
Speaker 1: What do you mean? Who gave a child cigarettes to smoke?
Speaker 1: Why does that matter? Why does that matter? Did I
Speaker 1: have the cigarettes? I smoked the cigarettes. We're we're just
Speaker 1: one intern away from having the entire integrity of the
Speaker 1: US electoral system overturned, because apparently if an intern suggests
Speaker 1: someone does something like the fucking senator has to do
Speaker 1: has to do that thing? Right. You know what I
Speaker 1: really can't stand about these magat people more than you
Speaker 1: know everything is they've made people like Mike Pence look reasonable,
Speaker 1: Like Mike Pence is the hero of this story. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I know when he's not doing shit, No exactly, but yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like how Mitt Romney had a moment. It's like,
Speaker 1: I don't want Mitt Romney to have a moment. Stop it.
Speaker 1: I mean, he's I mean speaking of Mike Pence though,
Speaker 1: like this guy really we're talking like, oh, I wonder
Speaker 1: what he's gonna do. You know, it looks like there's
Speaker 1: a lane clear enough for him if he can just
Speaker 1: you know, stab his old boss in the bag. And
Speaker 1: he had a chance to be like, yo, what do
Speaker 1: you think about the president and all this like the
Speaker 1: lies or whatever, and this this this hearing goes. You know, honestly,
Speaker 1: I've never seen a president lie more than Joe Biden
Speaker 1: and got it. I mean, he has no chance, like
Speaker 1: anybody tells you he has a chance, deluded by like,
Speaker 1: you know, the I think there was a time when
Speaker 1: donors were powerful enough that they can like get like
Speaker 1: push someone into relevancy. But we like that's just not
Speaker 1: the case anymore. I I really hope that a lot
Speaker 1: of billionaires are spending a lot of money on him
Speaker 1: as a candidate, because he is has no fucking shot.
Speaker 1: Absolutely no. He was probably in a debate Trump be like,
Speaker 1: why don't you kiss my ring? Mike, I will, but
Speaker 1: like that doesn't mean anything, and okay, so when you
Speaker 1: do that, now just but then we can move on
Speaker 1: to a reasonable debate. Because I'm an American, I resp
Speaker 1: act a former president. Okay, okay, now we're done. Oh
Speaker 1: you wanna put my foot in your mouth? Too. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'll deep out the wink to He's funny about it too.
Speaker 1: Is Trump absolutely sons his entire like all of his colleagues.
Speaker 1: He sons them in front of his base, and then
Speaker 1: they try to act like these people they respect Trump
Speaker 1: because he treats this like wrestling's He is a professional
Speaker 1: wrestler as a president, and he just he just comes
Speaker 1: out and delivers dis tracts and people go crazy. They're
Speaker 1: not going to respect you, Mike Pence. He had people
Speaker 1: on January six trying to hang you. There were people
Speaker 1: trying to find you and hang you from a gallow.
Speaker 1: Kenny and Kenny, I gotta tell you the person I've
Speaker 1: never seen anybody hang like the President. Joe Biden's leaving
Speaker 1: the American people hanging. So boy, I mean, I almost
Speaker 1: changed my name to Mark Curry because I was gonna
Speaker 1: be hanging with Mr Cooper anyway. Shout out Holly Robin
Speaker 1: and Pete real real wonderful woman, real wonderful woman. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, and this is all happening in the backdrop
Speaker 1: right where like now, like Fox seems to be showing
Speaker 1: a little bit more of the Chance six stuff. More
Speaker 1: so because I feel like they're like, man, if we
Speaker 1: treat it like the like album that you don't want
Speaker 1: your kids to listen to, guess what they're gonna go
Speaker 1: and find a way to listen to the album even
Speaker 1: if you know, even like it's bullshit, you need to
Speaker 1: waste your time. They're clearly are like funk. If they're
Speaker 1: gonna look somewhere else, they better just here at least
Speaker 1: are fucked up commentary on it, And you've heard some
Speaker 1: things be somewhat favorable times. At times, you know, you
Speaker 1: have the odd analysts being like, I think he probably
Speaker 1: crossed a line there and charges maybe realistic and like
Speaker 1: that's the most extreme thing you'll hear, and then they
Speaker 1: shot this person out. But while all this is going on,
Speaker 1: like the GOP is like they're they're spending a lot
Speaker 1: of their energy trying to like pretend what's happening in
Speaker 1: this January six thing is nothing to look at, while
Speaker 1: also trying to figure out, you know, aside from rat
Speaker 1: fucking the next election, how to bring in potentially turn
Speaker 1: out a few more voters. But while this is happening, right,
Speaker 1: you've got people like dr oz He basically disappeared any
Speaker 1: mention of Trump from his socials, from his website, nothing
Speaker 1: the words like, there's not even a thing that he's
Speaker 1: like endorsed by Trump on his website. So he basically
Speaker 1: once he got out the primary, he basically Mariah Trump,
Speaker 1: you know, just being like, oh, I don't know her
Speaker 1: that I mean, this is this is part for the
Speaker 1: course for someone in the swing state, because you can
Speaker 1: only ride the Magawave so far before you're like, this
Speaker 1: is what it starts getting toxic if I if I
Speaker 1: stay on a little bit too long, is too hot,
Speaker 1: So that's sorry, I'm too high, too high, so that's
Speaker 1: like clockwork. Then you have the funking one of the
Speaker 1: organizers of the January sixth rally, one of the fucking
Speaker 1: people who put this ship to together the rally for
Speaker 1: him to speak at. She basically is out here saying
Speaker 1: Trump is washed. Uh this woman, Amy Kreamer. She said,
Speaker 1: quote Donald Trump is disconnected from the base. It's time
Speaker 1: for those of us in the movement to get back
Speaker 1: to basis, back back to basics, back to our first principles.
Speaker 1: We were here long before President Trump came along, and
Speaker 1: we're going to be here long afterward. Which is disconnected
Speaker 1: from the base. Does that mean not racist enough, that's
Speaker 1: usually what that means in that context in a way,
Speaker 1: or not dumb enough to back mob Brooks. We talked
Speaker 1: about mob Brooks, he you know, from Alabama, one of
Speaker 1: the silliest motherfucker's in Congress, who wore a body armor
Speaker 1: on January six, but was like, yeah, but I just
Speaker 1: did that because you know, I forgot my tech fleece
Speaker 1: in my car. I just need to be warm. That's
Speaker 1: why I had this ballistic vest on. She was a
Speaker 1: big supporter of his, and that race just ended, and
Speaker 1: we talked about how Trump abandoned mob Brooks's ass and
Speaker 1: left him just out there in the cold. And as
Speaker 1: a result, Mitch McConnell's pick who the you know, the
Speaker 1: the mainstream or not mainstream, but that old school GOP
Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell wing backed this other candidate. She won. So
Speaker 1: I think this Amy Creamer woman is a bit in
Speaker 1: her feelings about that, but also at the same time
Speaker 1: more willing to be like what the funk like people
Speaker 1: are being like, man, she doesn't hit anymore. That's kind
Speaker 1: of like what it's it's starting. The subtext feels like
Speaker 1: when people say stuff like that, it doesn't hit the
Speaker 1: same you know, let's take a quick break and then
Speaker 1: we'll talk about the big, the big schism that's happening
Speaker 1: right now mega, because De Santis is also kind of
Speaker 1: distancing and de Santis as scary as fun man, like, yeah,
Speaker 1: so let's let's take a quick break. We'll be right back,
Speaker 1: and we're back and yeah, so it seems like De
Speaker 1: Santis is not is like going out of his way
Speaker 1: to not like seek Trump's endorsement, like to endorse Trump
Speaker 1: really like they're just like, yeah, they're cool, but like
Speaker 1: it's yeah, he's kind of like Drake trying to get
Speaker 1: out of his young money deal. Yeah, you know, he's like,
Speaker 1: thank you so much, thank you so so much. Up
Speaker 1: until this point, I feel like I may be able
Speaker 1: to put my own shingle out and see what I do,
Speaker 1: see if how Pop and I can get with just
Speaker 1: my name not attached to this. And that's that's that's basically,
Speaker 1: in so many words, what the people around Rond de
Speaker 1: Santis are saying that he isn't interested in seeking Trump's
Speaker 1: endorsement for for re election in November. So I think
Speaker 1: that's if that's true, that truly shows like he's trying
Speaker 1: to he's trying to test the brand. He wants to
Speaker 1: see if the brand is strong enough without Trump and
Speaker 1: being in a state like Florida that already gets you
Speaker 1: a lot of conservative cool points and the fact that
Speaker 1: he can. All he does is NonStop culture war bullshit
Speaker 1: and like no governance. They love that even more. Umah,
Speaker 1: and yeah, so it makes him a very scary Yeah,
Speaker 1: the New Yorkers just did this profile on him. Uh
Speaker 1: that is you know, it's humanizing in the way that,
Speaker 1: like all profiles tell you a story where like the
Speaker 1: person is the protagonist in a sense because you like
Speaker 1: find out how they grew up and ship like that.
Speaker 1: But he it's also as far from humanizing as a
Speaker 1: as something in that format can get, because even like
Speaker 1: his high school friends and like his college friends are
Speaker 1: all like, yeah, he's like kind of a creep. He's
Speaker 1: like just like real distant and like we'll stab you
Speaker 1: in the back the first chance he gets, and like
Speaker 1: it doesn't really seem to believe in anything, but but
Speaker 1: they're all like, but he's so fucking smart and creative
Speaker 1: and like you cannot funk with this man, Like it
Speaker 1: really like I walked away I was like, Oh, this
Speaker 1: is this is the guy people people were always like
Speaker 1: think about like the worst case scenario when like a
Speaker 1: smart version of Trump comes along. This is the mother
Speaker 1: sucking terminator, isn't he? Harvard and Yale, Harvard Yale undergrad,
Speaker 1: Harvard UH Law School. Um does all the homework, like
Speaker 1: knows the angle to take that is like closest to
Speaker 1: the truth for whatever he can like bend into a
Speaker 1: like outrageous talking point. UM. I remember when, like at
Speaker 1: the very beginning of the pandemic, when I was like,
Speaker 1: you know, doing essentially like oppo research, like trying to
Speaker 1: figure out like what like was there any shred of evidence?
Speaker 1: Where was all of this? Like the pandemic is overblown,
Speaker 1: Like don't listen to the science ship coming from And
Speaker 1: like the very closest I could come to finding any
Speaker 1: scientific backing was this ebidemiologist at Stanford who basically said
Speaker 1: that the best the government could do was like just
Speaker 1: let people run business as usual, wait for a vaccine. Um.
Speaker 1: It's you know, it's been pretty thoroughly debunked, but he's
Speaker 1: still at Stanford. He apparently had tenure UM and he
Speaker 1: still stands by it. But the profile opens with De
Speaker 1: Santa's reaching out to that guy like around the same
Speaker 1: time that like everybody else was like, you know, trying
Speaker 1: to figure out this thing. He reached out to that guy.
Speaker 1: The doctor talks to him and is like, you know,
Speaker 1: this dude not only like reach it, like found me.
Speaker 1: He has read all the literature, like not just the briefs,
Speaker 1: the actual literature, and has like like has the most
Speaker 1: pertinent questions that you would have if you've read and
Speaker 1: understood all that ship. Um, it's just he he doesn't
Speaker 1: give a funk about people's lives. Like that's the impression
Speaker 1: you get. He cares about power and that like single
Speaker 1: minded focus from day one, from when he was like,
Speaker 1: uh like I think they even have quotes from he
Speaker 1: was on like a team that made it to the
Speaker 1: Little League World Series. He uh like even the people
Speaker 1: back then are like, yeah, man, he's it's real, real motivated,
Speaker 1: really single minded. Very um yeah, his team, but his
Speaker 1: teammates in college, like because he played college baseball, We're
Speaker 1: all like, it's not a good teammate. Uh, not a
Speaker 1: good guy, but really smart and like really motivated and
Speaker 1: but most importantly, like the thing that really scared me
Speaker 1: the most is that he doesn't give a funk about
Speaker 1: public opinion, which is the thing that truly freed Trump
Speaker 1: to be Trump. He's like not going to That's the
Speaker 1: difference between Trump and like every other politician. They all
Speaker 1: worry about public opinion at a certain point, and like
Speaker 1: he just doesn't doesn't give a funk like that. He
Speaker 1: seems to be working with his own internal barometer. Um.
Speaker 1: He's also not older than the invention of door knobs.
Speaker 1: He was born his se he would destroy Joe Biden
Speaker 1: in an election, like he would rinse that motherfucker. If
Speaker 1: it is just like Biden versus him, like that, that's
Speaker 1: not gonna It's not gonna go. Well, the Democrats need
Speaker 1: to be thinking about what they're going to do with this,
Speaker 1: And I think this is kind of where I'm sure
Speaker 1: the GOP is at this crossroads to think, like, Man, okay,
Speaker 1: do we jettison from Trump because we might have something
Speaker 1: into Santis here. Yeah. I used to think that was unlikely,
Speaker 1: and now I'm starting to think that's at least a
Speaker 1: story that we should be paying attention to, because it
Speaker 1: might make sense for them to start thinking to Santis.
Speaker 1: I mean, he's he sounds like if Ted Cruz hadn't
Speaker 1: melted yet, right, Yeah, Like he's like charismatic Ted Cruz.
Speaker 1: He's not charismatic. That is one detail the guy's like
Speaker 1: when you meet him in person, he can't even like
Speaker 1: talk to you, Like he can't even stay on subject.
Speaker 1: It's just like he is like a like a turn
Speaker 1: He's like a machine that is built for public office.
Speaker 1: He's aloof and like a complete like asshole in person,
Speaker 1: but like when he gets up, like just in terms
Speaker 1: of like how he positions himself, he's very you're what
Speaker 1: it sounds like just with a couple you seeb improv classes,
Speaker 1: he might be really something to mess with because he
Speaker 1: can improve like Trump, because that was Trump's biggest thing too,
Speaker 1: is he loved to improv. And I think that helped
Speaker 1: this appearance that he's not like another politician where I'm sure,
Speaker 1: but at the end of the day, they love the
Speaker 1: Santis for the culture warship, not the Magataz well, and
Speaker 1: I think I think here's here's something that's maybe hopeful
Speaker 1: on the side of it is if he if he's
Speaker 1: gonna publicly basically say Trump ship, I don't need him. Well,
Speaker 1: if we know anything about Donald Trump. He's gonna come
Speaker 1: after you. And it's it is very if you're not
Speaker 1: with me, you're against me. It's not gonna be like,
Speaker 1: oh fine, well don't get my endorsement. See how you do.
Speaker 1: It's like, oh, you know what, my endorsement will guess
Speaker 1: what you're I'm now your opponent. Yeah, I guess who's
Speaker 1: running not on the Republican ticket. That's exactly right. So
Speaker 1: that's what I'm hoping. This is definitely split, you know,
Speaker 1: and it's happening on both sides, but the Republican Party
Speaker 1: is just like like fracturing right now. Yeah, that that
Speaker 1: would be great if Trump also ran, if they both
Speaker 1: ran for That's why I mean, we talked a few
Speaker 1: weeks ago about how he was talking about announcing on
Speaker 1: the fourth of July his candidacy because he wants yeah,
Speaker 1: because he's he really has an eye on the field,
Speaker 1: and he's like, fun, man, I don't know IF's NICKI Haley,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to go toe to toe with it,
Speaker 1: it's Rhonda Santis. But these are younger people who have
Speaker 1: followings in significant like regions of the country that you
Speaker 1: need to win an election, and that you know that
Speaker 1: may be factoring all into this. But you know, at
Speaker 1: the end of the day, like you're saying, Jack, I
Speaker 1: think the thing that's scary, Like I didn't realize he
Speaker 1: was a nihilist, you know, Like and he believes in nothing,
Speaker 1: and he's in the Lincolnberry pancake. He gets the Lincolnberry
Speaker 1: pancake when he's at Eyehop. Yeah, yeah, it was pigs
Speaker 1: and blanket, but that's his order. And he believes in nothing.
Speaker 1: And I think that's also very frightening too, because that's
Speaker 1: kind of like that level of like, oh, yeah, I
Speaker 1: have no boundaries in my my naked pursuit of power
Speaker 1: and however that comes. But I do think that's why
Speaker 1: that side of the aisle is is what I'm hoping,
Speaker 1: why I'm hoping for a great fracture is because no
Speaker 1: one on that side of the aisle has an actual
Speaker 1: idea of a greater good anymore. There might be a
Speaker 1: few people that we don't talk about, but this like Core,
Speaker 1: this Maga Core, these are all just opportunities. It's like
Speaker 1: an ethno state, and they will, yeah, they will tear
Speaker 1: each other apart. This was all at pursuit of power.
Speaker 1: So many of these maga people Q and On whatever.
Speaker 1: If you think about Q and On people, A lot
Speaker 1: of people in Q and On we're kind of like
Speaker 1: losers before. I mean, I don't mean to be like judgy,
Speaker 1: but like they and then they get big in this
Speaker 1: world and now they have power and they're like, well,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to give that power back. I'm not
Speaker 1: going back to no YouTube views. I'm staying at this
Speaker 1: twenty million or whatever the hell I got. Well, and
Speaker 1: then they use there a lot of very real sense
Speaker 1: of like economic losers who you know, much of this
Speaker 1: country has been treated like ship by the country and
Speaker 1: like giving up for dead and that those people, Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's desperation there. That's why, like I think we're in
Speaker 1: such a dangerous position is because like the only thing
Speaker 1: that is offering a alternative to the mainstream like well,
Speaker 1: we're gonna like get Wall Street to you know, keep
Speaker 1: the economy propped up, and then you'll keep getting uh,
Speaker 1: like you know, mainstream Democrat or mainstream Republican like plans
Speaker 1: to help you out. Like that ship has gone and
Speaker 1: the only people who are offering an alternative are fascists.
Speaker 1: Like that, that's not a good position to be. It,
Speaker 1: Like the left needs to hurry the funk up and
Speaker 1: figure out what we're gonna do, because that that they
Speaker 1: they're they're already like they're they're well, their game plan is,
Speaker 1: their game plan is simple, their play is very easy.
Speaker 1: It's just like, hey, everything they say is bad is
Speaker 1: not actually bad. They're saying it's bad to scare you.
Speaker 1: I'm the only one brave enough to say this. Allow me.
Speaker 1: And basically it's just like, don't worry about this ship
Speaker 1: because it isn't real. And that's like relieving the people.
Speaker 1: They're like, oh, thank god. And then so many of
Speaker 1: these people were left for dead, talked down to by
Speaker 1: the left. Coastal ladism is a real thing. As someone
Speaker 1: from Missouri, you know, there's only so many times someone
Speaker 1: can refer to you as a flyover state before you
Speaker 1: throw two middle fingers up and go, okay, I guess
Speaker 1: I'm not for you. Then, and and so these people
Speaker 1: speak that language. It's your significant you matter. You've been
Speaker 1: screwed over by these people. Nancy Pelosi is worth a
Speaker 1: hundred fifty million dollars. You think she cares about you.
Speaker 1: And they point to a very valid critique of the
Speaker 1: democratic establishment that it's a bunch of hypocrites that are
Speaker 1: super wealthy and disconnected, and it's a very appealing candidacy
Speaker 1: if you don't have critical thinking skills, if you are
Speaker 1: not highly educated to where you understand the intricacy of systems,
Speaker 1: and you just go, Okay, I'm being spoon fed something
Speaker 1: that makes me feel significant. I mean, and it's all
Speaker 1: emotion and it's all but it's the other people keep
Speaker 1: telling me it's someone to do with structural racism or
Speaker 1: some ship. I don't know, that's I don't, I don't.
Speaker 1: I'm not interested in that world. Understand that. I understand that, right,
Speaker 1: And again that's why it's like here's there's there. There
Speaker 1: are a few ways to look at how to make
Speaker 1: your life better. And like you're saying, Jack, the people
Speaker 1: who are offering fascism and violence seem to have a
Speaker 1: flashier brand at the moment than basic human like needs
Speaker 1: being met. Nothing then the like like John Fetterman literally
Speaker 1: is like the closest that they've got to like somebody
Speaker 1: who won a major election and like at least supported
Speaker 1: Bernie Sanders. Like other than that, like there there's not
Speaker 1: a whole lot on the national on the national stage,
Speaker 1: right now. Um, and the Democrats will continue to make
Speaker 1: that the case, uh like as currently constructed. Well, speaking
Speaker 1: of being spoon fed something that makes you feel good,
Speaker 1: is cereal dying? Um, that's a great question because Angela
Speaker 1: Pogan at The Takeout, one of our favorite food blogs,
Speaker 1: just like wrote this article like sounding the alarm, which
Speaker 1: was saying, we can't let cereal die? Is what the
Speaker 1: name of the pieces? And you know this is there's
Speaker 1: there is significance to cereal, right, I think, as she
Speaker 1: points out, like it's like making serious like one of
Speaker 1: the first things a child ever learns to make for
Speaker 1: themselves almost like the first intricate meal that you ever
Speaker 1: make is like overpouring a bunch of fucking cereal and
Speaker 1: spilling a cart in the milk, and you're like, yes,
Speaker 1: I am on my way to being adult. Um. But
Speaker 1: she points out to the fact that like, you know,
Speaker 1: Kellogg's like just splintered off into three different like subgroups
Speaker 1: for their business because like they need to get sales up,
Speaker 1: and cereal apparently has just become it's just in an
Speaker 1: it's in a decline. Um. It's it shows that most
Speaker 1: people they're opting for other things more portable k fast
Speaker 1: options like a breakfast bar or something like that. In sixteen,
Speaker 1: there was like a like an analysis done that estimated
Speaker 1: sales of cold of cold and hot cereals to total
Speaker 1: ten around ten billion dollars, which was seventeen percent less,
Speaker 1: uh than what they did in two thousand nine. And
Speaker 1: then that like basically they projected a steady decline all
Speaker 1: the way into and it's been holding up. And they're
Speaker 1: pointing the fact that's a convenience I portability play a
Speaker 1: large role and why people have begun turning away from
Speaker 1: the classic breakfast option. And as he points out, another
Speaker 1: research firm surveyed consumers back in fifteen and found out
Speaker 1: that thirty nine of millennials said cereal was inconvenient because
Speaker 1: you have to clean a dish afterward. And I'm like,
Speaker 1: that's factual, that's us, that's us. I'll just set it
Speaker 1: out the box if I have to, al Right, whatever
Speaker 1: whatever they make, uh, the what's that blender vitamins, blenders
Speaker 1: out of cereal companies need to give those out and
Speaker 1: then you you can just like a cereal bowl made
Speaker 1: out of that, a cereal spoon made out of that,
Speaker 1: and then they'd be golden because like that ship, you
Speaker 1: just like put it in the sink and put a
Speaker 1: little water on it and just everything slides right off
Speaker 1: of it. Granted it's probably like giving us all cancer
Speaker 1: thirty years from now, but that's my blood type is
Speaker 1: plastic doctors exactly. Um, I don't know, like we we
Speaker 1: still have you know, five or six box of the
Speaker 1: cereal at any given tild but that's and that's the
Speaker 1: thing that she's pointing out, like adults, are we going
Speaker 1: to embrace cereal again because we can't just count on
Speaker 1: the children to keep cereal alive? Are we gonna? And
Speaker 1: she did point out in Cereals that there was an
Speaker 1: uptick because a lot of adults were home and they're like, yeah,
Speaker 1: fucking I like cereal, Like I got a minute, I'll
Speaker 1: eat a bowl of cereal. But then that's that sort
Speaker 1: of trend is dying off again. Cereal is dessert, like
Speaker 1: basically like that that's how I treat you. Did I don't,
Speaker 1: I don't have a bowl of cereal and be like
Speaker 1: and now I am on my way to a healthy
Speaker 1: day the way I once did. Like that's for sure
Speaker 1: one one big thing that has improved my uh, you know,
Speaker 1: cereal like made me more likely to eat cereal now
Speaker 1: is like lactose free milk. I didn't realize I was
Speaker 1: lactose intolerant or or like, you know, I'm probably like
Speaker 1: lactose intolerant. But does it Like I I felt like
Speaker 1: taking a nap every time I ate cereal, And then
Speaker 1: I started getting lactose free milk because our kids are
Speaker 1: lactose intolerant, and um, now I can. I can eat
Speaker 1: cereal with abandon. Um wow, look at you. But I
Speaker 1: don't because it's a big wraw she like soup in
Speaker 1: your belly, like right after you eat it. It doesn't
Speaker 1: it doesn't feel great. I haven't pulled a box of
Speaker 1: cereal off the shelf and put it into my cart
Speaker 1: since probably. Wow, So you're the problem. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: I like, I like. I like savory. Look, I like
Speaker 1: savory breakfast when I eat cereal, Like when I was
Speaker 1: really eating it, I was like in college, and I
Speaker 1: would be so high and it was the easiest way
Speaker 1: to get calories that didn't involve heating food. So like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I would eat a like a salad mixing bowls worth
Speaker 1: of like a half box of rice crispy treat cereal
Speaker 1: right before class, not knowing how nutrition worked. But since then,
Speaker 1: I guess I continued for five years after that, and
Speaker 1: then I finally got my ship together. Yeah, I see
Speaker 1: headlines like this. I'm always like, do we have to
Speaker 1: save it? Like the reasons the other day, the reason,
Speaker 1: the reason we're moving on from it is because there's
Speaker 1: better things. Like for breakfast this morning, I had a
Speaker 1: cereal adjacent item. I had a bowl of City's yogurt
Speaker 1: with blueberry vanilla granola mixed in it, which is like
Speaker 1: basically just like, hey, it's cereal, but less sugar and
Speaker 1: more probiotics, and you'll actually feel full because of the yogurt.
Speaker 1: I didn't know about some part of the problem, yeah,
Speaker 1: part of cereal traders out here. I mean never I've
Speaker 1: never been a hot breakfast or a quick breakfast. See
Speaker 1: for me, I like savor. If you're gonna offer me breakfast,
Speaker 1: I don't even I don't even mean pancakes, Like I
Speaker 1: don't like give me salt, you know, thank you shout
Speaker 1: out to my blood pressure. But I put cereal that
Speaker 1: for our kids. I put a small like mixture of
Speaker 1: like four cereals. One that's like somewhat sweet with like
Speaker 1: a bunch of other like more healthy cereals. I put
Speaker 1: that like down while I'm making the eggs. I I
Speaker 1: never consider like, okay, you've had breakfast, but like that's
Speaker 1: that's something that will keep them occupied, because if they
Speaker 1: don't eat within like a half hour of waking up,
Speaker 1: it's uh, it's bad. Just hit me. There's a reason
Speaker 1: for this, maybe because millennials are having less kids. Only
Speaker 1: one of us in this chat has children, and one
Speaker 1: with the cereal cereal you got cereal juice, You know
Speaker 1: what I mean. It's like for tired parents. It really
Speaker 1: cereals for tired parents. That's exactly. You can't tell your
Speaker 1: teacher I didn't feed you. Now, so here's go to school.
Speaker 1: Please get out of my face. And I mean if
Speaker 1: if we go away back right because we talk about this,
Speaker 1: we're talking Kellogg. You know it was anti FAP material,
Speaker 1: don't you as The reason that I serve it to
Speaker 1: my kids is because I can't keep them off themselves,
Speaker 1: you know, just constantly pounding unless I give them unless yeah,
Speaker 1: corn flakes, That's what that was the original thing that
Speaker 1: he was like, you got to feed them, not spicy bland,
Speaker 1: shitty tasting cereal or else they'll just be masturbating all day.
Speaker 1: It's like, I don't know, man, maybe your whole culture
Speaker 1: is fucked up and you need to look at something
Speaker 1: besides whether the food you give them tastes too good.
Speaker 1: It's like it's like when one guy. It's like when
Speaker 1: one guy is accidentally revealing his secret. It's like, you
Speaker 1: all know how if you eat a tasty breakfast, you
Speaker 1: just jack off all day. We all do that, right?
Speaker 1: We gotta stop this. Every time every time I have
Speaker 1: an avocado toast, I just beat off three times. I
Speaker 1: can't have this. It's with me. Please some more shredded
Speaker 1: cardboard please? Yeah? Anyway, Yeah, there is definitely some line
Speaker 1: goes up ship. Like the whole idea that cereal is
Speaker 1: like dying off is like it's down year over year.
Speaker 1: It's like, yeah, well, maybe, like it's still going to
Speaker 1: be a thing. It just won't be like it won't
Speaker 1: have an entire aisle of the grocery store. It will have,
Speaker 1: you know, a little section where people who still enjoy cereal,
Speaker 1: like they'll still be able to make money off of it.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be fine. Could you imagine though as a society,
Speaker 1: we just a full stop reject cereal, like within the
Speaker 1: next ten years, like and then we never saw a
Speaker 1: cereal in the United States again. I mean, now there's
Speaker 1: is way too powerful for that ship to happen. So
Speaker 1: who's drinking milk? You know what I mean? Like that's
Speaker 1: part of it too, Like yeah, now I'm like, go
Speaker 1: hand in hand, I'm off that I drink like I
Speaker 1: I put oat milk and mocoff. You know. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: you know because more, you know, as we learn more,
Speaker 1: I'm like, damn, my eating habits will catch up to
Speaker 1: me of eventually. And like when you look at like
Speaker 1: the rates of like things like calling cancer and stuff
Speaker 1: like that, and now that relates to certain things diets
Speaker 1: and stuff, I'm like, shit, yeah, maybe at a certain
Speaker 1: point you gotta take that part seriously, but not now
Speaker 1: because the world is too stressful. So I will eat
Speaker 1: a block of cheese every day. Yeah, dude, let me
Speaker 1: tell you what's not dying a block of cheese. Although
Speaker 1: don't we still have like record cheese surpluses too in
Speaker 1: the in the country, So yeah, send it my way. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean, they might let you into one of those
Speaker 1: caves where they keep all that cheese. So to the dome, Yeah,
Speaker 1: right to the dome. Cheese to the dome, Kenny, such
Speaker 1: a pleasure having you as always? Where can people find you?
Speaker 1: Follow you? I always have so much fun. Thank you
Speaker 1: for having me, man um. I have not looked at
Speaker 1: Twitter since uh Wilsonith slaps Chris Rock and so don't
Speaker 1: I don't good for you. I mean, if I still
Speaker 1: have an account and i'm I'm probably gonna deactivate it.
Speaker 1: But I'm just telling Instagram is where I'm at now,
Speaker 1: That's where I'm popping. I want you to follow me
Speaker 1: on Instagram. If you're gonna follow me, it's at Kenny DeForest.
Speaker 1: I post clips in my stand up. But this is
Speaker 1: the thing, I don't post it daily. Everyone's like, you
Speaker 1: gotta post something daily, doesn't even matter if it's good.
Speaker 1: And I respect my followers more than that. So I
Speaker 1: actually need your help. I need a little word of
Speaker 1: mouth on my Instagram. Tell your friends like, hey, he's
Speaker 1: a comic. He post caption videos, but he only posts
Speaker 1: them when they're good, and you'll kind of forget that.
Speaker 1: You follow him for short stretches of time, and then
Speaker 1: something will pop up in your feed and you'll be
Speaker 1: like so grateful that he doesn't post it every day
Speaker 1: and it'll be a nice treat and you'll be like, oh,
Speaker 1: this guy, I like, I'm so glad he posted one
Speaker 1: video this week because it's actually good and it's not
Speaker 1: a half baked premise because he's trying to trick the
Speaker 1: algorithm into giving him a career. Okay, so follow me.
Speaker 1: I will not inundate you, and then tell your friends like, hey,
Speaker 1: this guy, it's he's not too much. You won't have
Speaker 1: to mute him. That's pretty cool like that. Yeah, Kenny,
Speaker 1: is there a tweet or something on social media anywhere
Speaker 1: that you've been enjoying? I have in on a huge
Speaker 1: rabbit hole of this YouTube series called The Soft White Underbelly,
Speaker 1: and I don't know if you guys have heard of it,
Speaker 1: but it's incredible and it's his photographer whose studio is
Speaker 1: on skid Row. And the long and short of it
Speaker 1: is he always believed that a picture told the whole story,
Speaker 1: and he did this series of photographs of people across
Speaker 1: the United States, and people had follow up questions and
Speaker 1: he was like, you know what, maybe I should interview people.
Speaker 1: And because he's on skid row. He interviews a ton
Speaker 1: of unhoused folks, um, he interviews prostitutes, he interviews pimps,
Speaker 1: he interviews drug addicts. It's people that are sort of
Speaker 1: on the fringes of society. And his whole thing is
Speaker 1: I am non judgmental. So these people really open up
Speaker 1: to him, and he pays them for their time. So
Speaker 1: you it's it's it's a good nice thing. It's like,
Speaker 1: doesn't feel exploitative. You know, this unhoused person is getting paid,
Speaker 1: but they're giving you an insight into how you end
Speaker 1: up on skid row or how you end up a
Speaker 1: drug addict. And it's like he I heard him in
Speaker 1: an interview say he hopes that his show is like
Speaker 1: a crass course, crash course and empathy, and I would
Speaker 1: say that he is succeeding. Man. It's really fascinating. Some
Speaker 1: of them are hard to watch, but it's really cool.
Speaker 1: I think what he's doing, So I highly recommend you
Speaker 1: to check it out. Awesome Miles, Where can people find you?
