Speaker 1: at some of I've been you know, I've been lurking

Speaker 1: we're all living through will create some great art. Like
Speaker 1: people just who are hurt, who are going through it,
Speaker 1: It's going to create some great art. Just like I
Speaker 1: think there's n f T s, there's gonna be n
Speaker 1: f t s of people's panicked tweets to be like, dude,
Speaker 1: you want to buy these ones where they thought n
Speaker 1: f t s were busted? You want that one now? Well, Miles,
Speaker 1: we're thrilled to be joined in our third seat by
Speaker 1: a hilarious comedian, one of our favorite guests and t
Speaker 1: d Z Dave Girl Wants touched her arm and said, hey,
Speaker 1: you're pretty funny. You can see her on stages everywhere
Speaker 1: from California to London, Berlin, Singapore. It's Lydia Papa. I
Speaker 1: can believe it. Here I am in the house. I
Speaker 1: killed a tick that was trying to bite my leg
Speaker 1: less than trying to five weeks ago, because I'm a
Speaker 1: fucking savage out here in these streets in the woods
Speaker 1: in Tennessee. Yeah, if you didn't know, bug season in
Speaker 1: the South is real. Really, it's really real. Like, wait,
Speaker 1: how do you fight a tick? Because usually in my mind,
Speaker 1: ticks are only things you you encounter when you go
Speaker 1: on a hike, or because I'm so concrete, this bold motherfucker, well,
Speaker 1: I just I took the dog outside to play a
Speaker 1: little ball, throw around in the grass in the front yard,
Speaker 1: you know, in the down front yard. Come back in
Speaker 1: of course, I, you know, tell her she's a very
Speaker 1: good girl and that she's perfect, and I love her
Speaker 1: and she's a beautiful little angel. And I kiss her
Speaker 1: face and I hug her and I ruffle her little ears.
Speaker 1: And then I sat down at my desk and then
Speaker 1: I was like, I feel like somebody's crawling on my face.
Speaker 1: And then I see something on my glasses. And then
Speaker 1: I'm like, there's something on my glasses, and I take
Speaker 1: my glasses off. This bold motherfucking tick jumped off my
Speaker 1: dog had the dacity to jump onto my motherfucking face.
Speaker 1: Sorry with all the motherfucker's, but this motherfucker jumped on
Speaker 1: my face. And then I saw him climbing on my glasses.
Speaker 1: So I threw my glasses on my desk and he
Speaker 1: jumped off my glasses. And then I had matches on
Speaker 1: my desk because I smoked weed, and I lit a
Speaker 1: motherfucking match and then I burnt that bitch because they
Speaker 1: don't like you can try to squish them, but like
Speaker 1: they just don't squish. Like people don't realize that ticks
Speaker 1: are like they're like little tanks. They're like cockroaches where
Speaker 1: you know, you really got to want to kill them.
Speaker 1: That's how you get them. If they burn into your skin,
Speaker 1: you kind of gotta burn them out to get them
Speaker 1: to give up on it. Yeah, So I burned that
Speaker 1: bitch on my desk and was just like like just
Speaker 1: I was horrified because I was like it was on
Speaker 1: my face and then I stripped off all of my
Speaker 1: clothes and changed my clothes before we started this podcast
Speaker 1: because I was like I could be covered in ticks
Speaker 1: right now, but I know it's because I kissed her
Speaker 1: and it jumped off of her and she has meds,
Speaker 1: so like you know they'll be all right, right, but still,
Speaker 1: these guys get those tick meds. Gotta start taking your
Speaker 1: dugs tick medication. That's what I'm thinking. Like we've had
Speaker 1: people out here and like the last two house casts
Speaker 1: of like called this afterwards, I'm like, yeah, I picked
Speaker 1: three ticks off my body and I'm like, well, I
Speaker 1: told you to wear long pants. Yeah, And I'm like,
Speaker 1: if we're gonna go shooting, and we're gonna go, you know,
Speaker 1: the ranges out in the wood, so it's like you're
Speaker 1: gonna you're gonna get some stragglers, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: But Mida mass is out there also in shorts and
Speaker 1: a tank top. Because I'm an idiot. So it's kind
Speaker 1: of my fault to you thought you were safe out there.
Speaker 1: Really was like, it's the short grass, you know, it'll
Speaker 1: be fine. Nope, not fine. I got a question. What's
Speaker 1: the end game for ticks there? So they burrow in,
Speaker 1: they stick their whole fucking head into your under your skin,
Speaker 1: and that like, isn't that the thing that like, that's
Speaker 1: why I need to be so careful pulling them out,
Speaker 1: is because their whole head will come off if you like,
Speaker 1: what then are you thinking? I feel like they're like
Speaker 1: the deadbeat dudes of the insect right, Like they show
Speaker 1: up and they seem cool and they're like all beefy
Speaker 1: and they're like, yeah, man, I just need to like
Speaker 1: spend them out of your house or like take a
Speaker 1: shower or whatever, and the next thing you know, they've
Speaker 1: burrowed their fucking head into your couch and they never leave,
Speaker 1: like until they die or you get them out, Like
Speaker 1: I think they're they just their users, Like they just
Speaker 1: suck blood and then they suck so much blood they explode,
Speaker 1: like they turn into like grapes, like grapes size ticks.
Speaker 1: And then what do they do? They go back and
Speaker 1: just like they roll home and are just like worthless?
Speaker 1: Do they take the blood back to their family and
Speaker 1: just like all over it and then it's just like
Speaker 1: carry in a tick living room. I don't know. Mosquitoes
Speaker 1: at least are efficient. You know, they get in and
Speaker 1: they get out. They you don't just like turn turn
Speaker 1: your arm and like there's been one there for like
Speaker 1: a week and it's like five pounds, and they're like
Speaker 1: they need the blood for the babies because if they're
Speaker 1: taking the females that bite right on mosquitoes, ohn't know, man,
Speaker 1: what are they trying to lay eggs? Inst two ticks
Speaker 1: lay eggs and you I don't think so because I
Speaker 1: feel like I would have heard of that, right, Spiders
Speaker 1: do famous, Yeah, And that one girl was taking a
Speaker 1: shower at one time and well we all know what happened.
Speaker 1: Scratched a little bump and baby spiders came pouring out.
Speaker 1: I would cut off my fucking arm, just be like,
Speaker 1: and we're done with this arm. I don't please forever, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: I will rock that stuff from the spiders were in there.
Speaker 1: I can't. We're never doing this again. Gotta ask you, Lydia,
Speaker 1: what do you think of your goddess Dolly Parton's announcement
Speaker 1: about Taco Bell the Mexican Pizza musical. What from your perspective,
Speaker 1: what's going on there? She's a She's the queen, dude.
Speaker 1: This is so fucking smart, like honestly, like that was
Speaker 1: when the Mexican pizza came back. I was like, you
Speaker 1: can't tell me she's not a walking saint on this earth.
Speaker 1: Like we've all been missing that pizza. I fucking love
Speaker 1: that Mexican pizza. I don't even like Taco Bell, but
Speaker 1: I go there to get the Mexican pizza. Like when
Speaker 1: I heard it was going away, I went and got
Speaker 1: my last one and cried on that goddamn parking lot.
Speaker 1: And then I saw her talking about it in an interview.
Speaker 1: All that woman had to mention it in an interview
Speaker 1: was just casually. I like the Mexican pizza and guess
Speaker 1: what came back, The motherfucking Mexican pizza. So yes, we
Speaker 1: need a musical to rejoice this, like let us all
Speaker 1: sing together, we are the world. My question is this
Speaker 1: is this genius business tactics because you can only imagine
Speaker 1: what that dump truck of cash looked like? Or do
Speaker 1: you think Dolly Parton is doing this because she truly
Speaker 1: believes in it? And I'm fine either way because I'm like, honestly,
Speaker 1: I think it's money. I think she's like, I think
Speaker 1: she loves the pizza and thinks it's cute and then
Speaker 1: was like, probably said no, and then they're like, here's
Speaker 1: four dump trucks full of money, and she's like, oh,
Speaker 1: I'll sing about a fucking pizza. Mean, there's nothing that
Speaker 1: lady loves more than money and an opportunity to come
Speaker 1: up with a clever twist of words. So I cannot
Speaker 1: wait for like what look cute tongue in cheek ship
Speaker 1: she's gonna be singing about Mexican pizza. It's it's probably
Speaker 1: gonna be barely tolerable, but I can't wait. I even
Speaker 1: for a commercial. I heard she wrote the entire Mexic
Speaker 1: compete in musical in five minutes she wrote she wrote it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she wrote it on the top of the pizza box,
Speaker 1: right right, right, two crunches of it. Yeah. She's like, oh,
Speaker 1: that bite sounds like a melody. Crunch crunch, crunch, crunch,
Speaker 1: crunch crunch. She's like print ta yeah, yeah, exactly. And
Speaker 1: she's like, oh, when they're covered in sauce, it's a
Speaker 1: different sound. All right Lydia, we're gonna get to know
Speaker 1: you a little bit better in a moment. First, we're
Speaker 1: gonna tell our listeners a couple of things we're talking
Speaker 1: about today. We're talking about gen Z and the tech
Speaker 1: savvy fighting back against union busting companies. We're talking about
Speaker 1: Susan Collins. Is Susan Collins in this just general republican this.
Speaker 1: But we're gonna talk about like the the grummer rhetoric
Speaker 1: that's coming out of the right is really scary. So
Speaker 1: I wanted to talk about like why why that's so
Speaker 1: scary and dangerous? All that plenty more. But first Lydia,
Speaker 1: we do like task our guessd what is something from
Speaker 1: your search history? Okay, I'm gonna be real extra honest today.
Speaker 1: This is this is this is me being very vulnerable.
Speaker 1: I don't think it's gonna surprise anyone, but you know,
Speaker 1: it's something maybe people wouldn't talk about. I I googled
Speaker 1: yesterday because I hadn't really done any googling today, but
Speaker 1: yesterday I googled h Jesse Williams nude images the twitters
Speaker 1: and I was like, what's wrong? And then I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: he's in a play. That means it's good dick. Like
Speaker 1: they don't ask you to get naked unless you got
Speaker 1: good dick. And I never really like, he's not an
Speaker 1: unattractive man, but like he's not really my vibe, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like he sure he's got those
Speaker 1: nice light eyes, like I'm here for it, that's fine,
Speaker 1: but would never you know, I was like, what is
Speaker 1: he working? What what's going on? It didn't yield any results,
Speaker 1: but this morning on Twitter, Oh thank you algorithm, there
Speaker 1: was somebody that had you know that posted, you know,
Speaker 1: a repost of a repost. So I finally got to
Speaker 1: see that dick and god damn, is that a good dick?
Speaker 1: I did not like it might have been the angle,
Speaker 1: I don't know, but it was like I haven't been
Speaker 1: this cited about seeing a penis that I didn't think
Speaker 1: I would like since I saw Bonnie Bobby Connor Volley's
Speaker 1: dick and fucking goddamn it, what was that show? It
Speaker 1: was like a show I didn't watch forever. And then
Speaker 1: it's like he's like a fucking killer. Oh Boardwalk Empire.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I didn't know that. Yeah. There's like a
Speaker 1: scene where he's basically like fucking this bitch and like
Speaker 1: dudes come in to kind of kill him and he
Speaker 1: gets up out of the bed like literally like strokes
Speaker 1: are down, like pulls out and then fucking just starts
Speaker 1: blasting guns kills dude. He's covered in blood and he's
Speaker 1: walking on the hallway and they're shooting it from the top.
Speaker 1: So you just kind of see like a semihard dick
Speaker 1: just covered in blood, like in guns and that's my ship.
Speaker 1: So I wasting blood and guns. Just his dick is
Speaker 1: also magnetic and has a done gun. It's like we
Speaker 1: got you, you know, his balls a underneath with six shooters.
Speaker 1: It was amazing. That is a great question you you
Speaker 1: kind of posed, is what comes first when you're casting
Speaker 1: somebody who's going to show their dick, Like do they
Speaker 1: do they need to have seen the dick first before
Speaker 1: they bring them in to that role. Is it part
Speaker 1: of the casting process or has there ever been a
Speaker 1: situation where they cast someone for a role and then
Speaker 1: they're like, oh, we're going to have to recast here.
Speaker 1: That is here's where I wasn't originally in the piano.
Speaker 1: There's no nudity planned, and they're like, hold up, don't
Speaker 1: I'm gonna need you just to stay. Just like that,
Speaker 1: I should have knocked before it came to the trailer. However,
Speaker 1: I'm glad i'm here. I think there's a difference between
Speaker 1: the stage and the screen, right. I think if it's
Speaker 1: for like a movie or a TV, it's probably like, hey,
Speaker 1: there's some nudity. Are you comfortable with that? I don't
Speaker 1: think there's discussion because you can shoot it from angles,
Speaker 1: you can light it. But on the stage. On the stage,
Speaker 1: there's no lies, right, you know what I mean? You
Speaker 1: gotta have at least something that presents itself. You know
Speaker 1: what I mean. You can't draw eyeland or in a
Speaker 1: dick so you can see it from the back of
Speaker 1: the room, do you know what I'm saying? Like, there's
Speaker 1: no jumbo trauma at the play, you know, the playhouse.
Speaker 1: So I feel like in that state case, it's like
Speaker 1: do you have the acting chops? Okay, now let's see
Speaker 1: that dick that doesn't play from the stage, doesn't play
Speaker 1: from the stage. Yeah, we need to see you. Can
Speaker 1: you hit your mark please? Yes, Dick? Really, it doesn't
Speaker 1: it just you know, and it was glistening and it
Speaker 1: was all wet and shipped. It was like fucking uh
Speaker 1: flash dance, but like he was all in like a shower,
Speaker 1: but just like standing up, just like very bold and yeah, man,
Speaker 1: it looked great. I might just feel like an attraction
Speaker 1: thing there where like the right performer will be drawn
Speaker 1: to that role and the and you know, like you
Speaker 1: don't have somebody who's like nod rather rather not like
Speaker 1: what if we what if we didn't do that the
Speaker 1: whole section of the play. You know. Well, And it's
Speaker 1: interesting because like he doesn't like carry himself with big
Speaker 1: dick energy, you know what I mean. And maybe he's
Speaker 1: just maybe he's a shower and not a grower. I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't know how the thing works, but like it's
Speaker 1: like he was upset. He was like really concerned about
Speaker 1: like people an audience taking pictures of his dick, and
Speaker 1: I'm like, why bro, But I'm like, oh, because now
Speaker 1: your secrets out, you know what I mean. Jesse Williams
Speaker 1: was saying, though, you're right, he said that before he
Speaker 1: was going to do that while he's terrified. But he says,
Speaker 1: then then I I guess he was on Andy Kole.
Speaker 1: Then I saw my dick. Then I noted that that
Speaker 1: is what I asked God for. I asked to be terrified.
Speaker 1: I asked to do something that was scary and challenging
Speaker 1: and made me earn it and made me feel alive
Speaker 1: and not comfortable. So yeah, I was terrified. I was
Speaker 1: stressed out. I put my hands, my head in my hands,
Speaker 1: and noticed that I had a giant, beautiful dick. And
Speaker 1: then I was like, oh, no, we're good. Oh this
Speaker 1: is this is great. Yeah. They showed me the film
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, I do have a great hog.
Speaker 1: Let's put this on, let's do this. So yeah, man,
Speaker 1: that's that's my search history. I was just trolling for
Speaker 1: dicks this morning. I just was like, I gotta see
Speaker 1: this thing. I gotta know what the fuss is about.
Speaker 1: That's the net. What what is something you think is overrated.
Speaker 1: You know this is controversial because everybody's doing it and
Speaker 1: they love it. Travel. What are we doing? Why are
Speaker 1: we going places? Why are we even getting our homes?
Speaker 1: Like I'm I'm I'm, you know, traveling for comedy again
Speaker 1: and I went to l A last weekend, came back
Speaker 1: and it's just like I keep trying, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, and I'll it's just it's a lot, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. It's a lot. And I know
Speaker 1: people are like, I want to get the fucking now
Speaker 1: thieves and I'm gonna get walk in here, and I'm
Speaker 1: just like, man, I can't even handle it, like it
Speaker 1: just once you get out of the airport, it's okay,
Speaker 1: but then it's like you're no whole new city. And
Speaker 1: then it's like adjusting to the vibe of the city.
Speaker 1: It's just a lot. But I'm I'm I'm using back
Speaker 1: into it. But I'm I'm just I'm not a fan.
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't like to travel like I used to.
Speaker 1: I really don't. Is it because you have some like
Speaker 1: you feel like you're living in it because you love
Speaker 1: you know you ever since you moved even like I'm
Speaker 1: fucking do you think maybe because you've kind of like
Speaker 1: found it. You're vibrating at a new frequency too, So
Speaker 1: maybe the travel blood lessons I think So I do
Speaker 1: think that has something to do with it, because it's
Speaker 1: like why would I leave, Like I'm so comfortable here,
Speaker 1: Like I'm so on my element, like I love everything
Speaker 1: that's happening, and then I leave and I'm like this sucks,
Speaker 1: you know, And I come home and I'm like, thank god?
Speaker 1: Do you think? Yeah, it's also just like the number
Speaker 1: of people around. It's just like yeah, on a plane
Speaker 1: just so, and now that people aren't wearing masks and ship,
Speaker 1: it's like really full stupidity and full behaviors have come back.
Speaker 1: And I'm just like, oh so we're just like fucking gross.
Speaker 1: Just we're back to like square one, patient zero, disgusting,
Speaker 1: Like have you learned nothing? Like there was a dude, maskless,
Speaker 1: sucking raw dog took his fucking shoes off next to me,
Speaker 1: was like peeling an egg. I was like, bro, do
Speaker 1: you have a fucking sack full of tuna? Like what
Speaker 1: are you doing? Like? Yeah? Another woman was changing her
Speaker 1: baby on the seat next to her. I was like, bitch,
Speaker 1: I know that bathroom is small, but like, do you
Speaker 1: need to do we all need to be a part
Speaker 1: of this diaper changing And it was a little boy too,
Speaker 1: and you know how little boys me fucking popping off.
Speaker 1: And I was just like, yo, if I get a
Speaker 1: scored a piss over this seat, I swear to God
Speaker 1: I will pump that baby into the bathroom and sucking
Speaker 1: push you in there, like do not. I've never been
Speaker 1: more on edge than looking between the seats behind me
Speaker 1: and seeing a little baby dick and being like, what
Speaker 1: the fund is happening like this at the bathroom? This
Speaker 1: is not the bathroom, like baby fegle matter on a
Speaker 1: seat like gross? Just everybody's hey, but you know what
Speaker 1: this is what this is what the airline is doing
Speaker 1: to keep you safe. We're sanitizing every surface. You're like,
Speaker 1: do you also know somebody's ship was on this seat?
Speaker 1: Are you shampooing the carpet that covers every seat and
Speaker 1: underneath the seat? Plans are just so gross. It's just
Speaker 1: just it's also, when was the last time you were
Speaker 1: on a flight that wasn't like patched to the gills
Speaker 1: with people? Never? Never? Actually the only thing so I'm
Speaker 1: going to come out and say this, I used to
Speaker 1: be a Southwest hater. Like Southwest, I was like fun
Speaker 1: that greyhound in the sky. Whatever. You know. I'm statused
Speaker 1: on other airlines, but I've flown Southwest, like the last
Speaker 1: three times I've gone to l A just because it's
Speaker 1: been cheaper and everyone else is hiking up their prices
Speaker 1: and so I'm just like not paying for it. But
Speaker 1: I did not realize the Southwest has a whole like
Speaker 1: flying while fat policy. That's not what they call it,
Speaker 1: but that's what I call it. They call it a
Speaker 1: c O S policy. So this is just a hot
Speaker 1: tip for fatties. If you fly Southwest, when you check in,
Speaker 1: you can tell them I want to take advantage of
Speaker 1: your CEOs policy, which means that they give you a
Speaker 1: seat little card to put on the seat next to
Speaker 1: you to say it so no one can sit there,
Speaker 1: and they let you pre board, so that's in front
Speaker 1: of the a's, so you pre board with like the
Speaker 1: grandma's on the wheelchairs, and then you can choose whatever
Speaker 1: seat you want and then you put that card next
Speaker 1: to you and then no one can sit there. And
Speaker 1: so even if it's a full fucking flight, you get
Speaker 1: a seat between you, so you are the goddess that
Speaker 1: has or the god that has two seats. And then
Speaker 1: if you're a real you're a real one. You try
Speaker 1: to signal another fatty he doesn't know about it, and
Speaker 1: you will go a bit you want to sit here
Speaker 1: because ain't no one sitting in the seat, and then
Speaker 1: you make a new fat friend and then you're both happy.
Speaker 1: In your high five video, somebody was like doing have
Speaker 1: I talked about this already on the show, the guy
Speaker 1: who was like, how to make sure nobody sits next
Speaker 1: to you on a bus or like Southwest flight and
Speaker 1: everybody who walks down the aisle just like makes eye
Speaker 1: contact with them, smiles and then taps the seat next
Speaker 1: next like inviting. Yeah, and everyone's just like fucking no
Speaker 1: good yeah, or like caressed the seat that they didn't
Speaker 1: like with like a finger, like yeah, I have to
Speaker 1: just arm out, like you're just waiting for them to
Speaker 1: sit out doing the yawn. So yeah, my my method
Speaker 1: of just like not looking at anyone and hoping the
Speaker 1: you know, I always used to pretend I was sick
Speaker 1: because like I used to be mine too. Yeah, And
Speaker 1: when I was working in politics, I have to go
Speaker 1: to Sacramento so much to the capital that I got
Speaker 1: like I had a rhythm. Getting on a Southwest flight,
Speaker 1: I'd be like this, like so sick, like just water
Speaker 1: in your face. Yeah, unless it was full people don't
Speaker 1: to sit here somebody who's in a middle seat being like, oh,
Speaker 1: I feel terrible. What is something you think is underrated?
Speaker 1: All right? Man? The rumba. I bought a roomba, one
Speaker 1: of those those vacuum robots, and you know they've been
Speaker 1: around for a long time, but I'm like, like, how
Speaker 1: hard is it to vacuum for yourself? What's a big deal?
Speaker 1: Granted I haven't been a dog owner until this year,
Speaker 1: and like the ive been of owned cats and like
Speaker 1: catshoed like a motherfucker. But I always just was like
Speaker 1: on top of it, sweeping whatever. And maybe it's also
Speaker 1: because now I have a very large house and like
Speaker 1: the square footage is just overwhelming. But I was literally
Speaker 1: having breakdowns once a day because I was like, I
Speaker 1: just swept. What happened? What is I can't like literally
Speaker 1: losing my mind over keeping my force clean? And then
Speaker 1: I bought this fucking rumba. Holy sh it, man, it
Speaker 1: just gets everything like I said it to go at
Speaker 1: a p m every night. Its sucking vacuums. It's loud
Speaker 1: as ship, but I don't care because I wake up
Speaker 1: to like clean floors like every it like it vacuums
Speaker 1: up ship that I didn't even know it was there.
Speaker 1: Like I can sweep and swift for my ass off.
Speaker 1: And it's just like I feel like there's always dog there.
Speaker 1: But when I empty that little room a thing, it's
Speaker 1: just like chok full of dog here. And I'm like, okay,
Speaker 1: so I'm not a psycho, like this is an egregious
Speaker 1: amount of hair, but this thing is just making my
Speaker 1: life so happy. It's just going around, it's underneath furniture,
Speaker 1: it's just sucking up all the stuff. And I know
Speaker 1: it's like super boring, but like yo, man shout outs
Speaker 1: to roomba. They you you this is your first room
Speaker 1: because I've had I had to like set up these
Speaker 1: like training cones for it to know where it could
Speaker 1: and couldn't go. It was it was like complicated and
Speaker 1: then it can't do that. Yeah, I'm wondering if they
Speaker 1: finally figured now. I mean, they gave me basically this
Speaker 1: like little beacon thing that like you can stick near
Speaker 1: something to create like a barrier or a wall, or
Speaker 1: you can like stick it in front of like a
Speaker 1: pet food bowl and it basically will create like a
Speaker 1: semicircle arc that it won't go into and otherwise, Like
Speaker 1: the first time I ran it, it ran for like
Speaker 1: five hours and it basically mapped out my house and
Speaker 1: it creates a your house, and then you can go
Speaker 1: in and you can basically set the borders for each room.
Speaker 1: You name the rooms, and then you can say, hey,
Speaker 1: go clean the kitchen, and it just goes to clean
Speaker 1: the kitchen. Or you can be like clean everywhere but
Speaker 1: the laundry room, and it'll go and clean everywhere but
Speaker 1: the laundy room. So you can like basically specify now.
Speaker 1: But it's been like two weeks and I've been like
Speaker 1: trying all the different ship to see if I can
Speaker 1: like confuse it like, and it honestly has been going
Speaker 1: up over all my rugs. It's been going up over
Speaker 1: like the folded blanket that I used as my dog's place.
Speaker 1: Like it's only taken out one chord when I didn't
Speaker 1: like put the cord up. But like you do have
Speaker 1: to make sure like there's not a dog toy, like
Speaker 1: you know, there's a weird thing. Yeah, but other than that,
Speaker 1: like it, I mean, it's been doing pretty good, Like
Speaker 1: it hasn't gotten stuck anywhere yet. When it runs out
Speaker 1: of like juice, that's the only thing, Like if it's
Speaker 1: doing my whole house, because my house is pretty big,
Speaker 1: like it'll run it out of juice and then it'll
Speaker 1: plug itself back in and charge and then like forty
Speaker 1: minutes later, you're like, why are you starting again? And
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, it forgot twelve square feet by the
Speaker 1: kitchen and it's and it goes right back to where
Speaker 1: it left off. It doesn't just start over again. See notes.
Speaker 1: I should note I had the Room Bow, which was
Speaker 1: n version that nine nine cent store, but yeah, my well,
Speaker 1: my experience was not great, but I was probably that's
Speaker 1: why that's I heard all the terrible stories forever. And
Speaker 1: then I finally like broke down and I mean, you
Speaker 1: guys love it because I know you guys are Costco bros. Too,
Speaker 1: But like it was on sale at Costco and I
Speaker 1: was just like Costco online and they shipped it to me.
Speaker 1: It was like a hundred dollars off. I was like, hell, yeah,
Speaker 1: send me that room but I'll try anything. Uh. And
Speaker 1: now I'm like, they have a mop room ba. And
Speaker 1: so now I'm like on the prescipits, live with this room,
Speaker 1: but for a month and if it still is good,
Speaker 1: then I'm gonna get the mop one because you can
Speaker 1: basically sink them, so it sends out vacuum mumba and
Speaker 1: then when vacuum room is done, it sends out the mop.
Speaker 1: So if I can get that, yo, my life is
Speaker 1: about to change. I'm about beat. Yeah, I'm about to
Speaker 1: like win back so much wine drinking time and weed
Speaker 1: smoking time. At night. I'm just gonna be able to
Speaker 1: like chill and put my feet up on my recliner
Speaker 1: and be like, yeah, I'm about get that bitch me
Speaker 1: and two you were watching so yeah, shout outs to them.
Speaker 1: It was always so sad when I would like find
Speaker 1: it stuck under a piece of furniture and I would
Speaker 1: be devastated. Yeah it fell running out of a gerbil
Speaker 1: or something like you know. And then I have an
Speaker 1: honorary under underrated. Also like just like a second one
Speaker 1: is a long beach airport. Have you guys ever flown
Speaker 1: out a long beach airport? I have one Jet Blue
Speaker 1: When I went to New York a few years ago. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they have like the outdoor lobby there when you were there.
Speaker 1: So they have redone the Long Beach Airport. I've never
Speaker 1: been there before, but I guess I just got Redond.
Speaker 1: It's really quiet because you know who the fun flies
Speaker 1: out of Long Beach, right, Jeff Blue is in there anymore,
Speaker 1: but Southwest is there. But they have a whole after T.
Speaker 1: S A. You go through T. S A and then
Speaker 1: you know how usually come into like the Chaos Hall
Speaker 1: where like everyone's looking for, like where do I go?
Speaker 1: There's no Chaos Hall. It's just an open courtyard, wow,
Speaker 1: fresh air benches, tables, trees, and then to the left
Speaker 1: is one side of the terminal and to the right
Speaker 1: is the other side of the terminal. But like, you
Speaker 1: can literally spend your whole two hours just outside. You
Speaker 1: don't have to be in the airport. You can be
Speaker 1: outside in the fucking sun, having a beer, having a wine,
Speaker 1: having a water, whatever, and then you walk into the
Speaker 1: terminal and get on your plane. It was the most
Speaker 1: relaxing departure. I was like, yo, I'm Long Beaches out
Speaker 1: of the way, but it might be worth it just
Speaker 1: to like not have to deal with l A X Right, Okay,
Speaker 1: Like so if you if you have a flight path
Speaker 1: that is like workable through Long Beach, I would say,
Speaker 1: try it. It is awesome. It was like, yo, yeah
Speaker 1: I missed. They canceled the southwest from nashvillist to Burbank
Speaker 1: and I'm devastated. They used to have a direct flight
Speaker 1: and they don't have it anymore. And it's hard, but yeah,
Speaker 1: shout out to Long Beach. L A innovated in the
Speaker 1: outdoor malls, the outdoor high schools. According to nine O
Speaker 1: two one. Now, I wasn't really and I didn't go
Speaker 1: to high school out here, but yeah, I hadn't even
Speaker 1: thought about the outdoor airport. That's it's next level. Man.
Speaker 1: It was. It was really like I was. I was
Speaker 1: actually pleased. I was just like, oh wow, yeah, I will,
Speaker 1: I will sit in traffic to leave this airport. All right,
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back.
Speaker 1: And we're back. And so you know, the big tech
Speaker 1: has taken the idea of technological solutions and made us
Speaker 1: all very suspicious. But there are still some good things
Speaker 1: being done with technology by the people. Yeah, Like the
Speaker 1: last couple of months, we've seen story after story about
Speaker 1: corporate union busting and retaliate retaliatory firings for people who
Speaker 1: are trying to organize their co workers. But you know,
Speaker 1: like in this moment where there's a huge swell of
Speaker 1: support for organized labor, many people are finding new ways
Speaker 1: to push back and actually make things difficult for some
Speaker 1: of these companies. So, you know, they're one of the
Speaker 1: the tactics that have been used from people like you know,
Speaker 1: pushing back against places like Kroger or Starbucks or Kellogg's
Speaker 1: who have been recently in the news for their unsavory
Speaker 1: business practices. They're saying, you know what we can do,
Speaker 1: we can spam the funk out of the job listings
Speaker 1: when these companies post for you know, essentially what they're
Speaker 1: looking for is a like a professional union buster like
Speaker 1: for their company. So this is from Vice talking about
Speaker 1: in February gen Z for Change coder so Fia and
Speaker 1: Gelli says, quote, let's talk about Starbucks in case you
Speaker 1: missed it, they fired seven of their Memphis Memphis workers
Speaker 1: who are trying to unionize. They even took it upon
Speaker 1: themselves to launch an entire anti union website. But unions
Speaker 1: are good. They protect workers. A super cool website that
Speaker 1: my friends and I made that make it easy for
Speaker 1: you to flood the application pool, essentially saying like it'll
Speaker 1: this site will auto generate a ton of applicants using
Speaker 1: you know, like script with python quote. It would be
Speaker 1: a real shame if people use the website and let
Speaker 1: Starbucks know unionizing is good and they shouldn't be firing
Speaker 1: workers who try to unionize, you know, just putting it
Speaker 1: out there essentially saying, go to this website, you can
Speaker 1: spam the funk out of the thing, and it will
Speaker 1: basically put their ability to hire someone like total gridlock
Speaker 1: by like just overwhelming their inboxes with these applicants. And
Speaker 1: something similar was even happening more not necessarily that it
Speaker 1: was on TikTok and sort of getting younger people to
Speaker 1: get involved. But the s C I you, they did
Speaker 1: something where they're using technology to try and a B
Speaker 1: test some things. For example, they suspected that Chippotle had
Speaker 1: you know, some maybe some you know, some racial disparities
Speaker 1: and who they hire for open managerial positions. So what
Speaker 1: they did was they submitted pairings of names a white
Speaker 1: applicant and a black applicant with racially distinctive names. And
Speaker 1: they guess what they found out when they submitted six
Speaker 1: twenty four applications, the black applicants TEP typically did not
Speaker 1: hear back even cloth to the rate that these white
Speaker 1: applicants we're hearing back. And so even they're they're using
Speaker 1: that to sort of support greater arguments, say this is
Speaker 1: this um what based on what we found through this
Speaker 1: correspondence testing that we were doing, is that they there
Speaker 1: are some biased hiring practices. So it's it's an interesting
Speaker 1: moment because a lot of labor people have been studying
Speaker 1: like labor movements or less and this is kind of
Speaker 1: new because technology hasn't been used this way for worker
Speaker 1: organizing or pushing back against companies, and it's kind of
Speaker 1: a it is a very different moment than than usual. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that one's really brilliant because that's the sort of thing
Speaker 1: that I could see a corporation responding to is like
Speaker 1: just a very targeted like look this we ran this test.
Speaker 1: You guys failed. It's now in the media like you
Speaker 1: have to do something the like gridlock one. I'm a
Speaker 1: little bit like because I just feel like the Starbucks
Speaker 1: finds a way around that or just tires like their
Speaker 1: kids or you know, their failed suns, or you know
Speaker 1: that they can always find a way to hire. But
Speaker 1: like the the one where they like do a targeted
Speaker 1: experiment publicly that proves that you're fucking racists, like corporations,
Speaker 1: like they have to respond to that, like they're having
Speaker 1: a meeting about that ship right now, right. But I
Speaker 1: do think the twofold kind of attack though, is sort
Speaker 1: of brilliant because it does take a light of time
Speaker 1: and effort to go through applicants and to select ones.
Speaker 1: So like either way, like they're hitting them in the pocketbook, right.
Speaker 1: The internet is supposed to ease access to applicants, like oh,
Speaker 1: and it's also the internet uses you know, well we
Speaker 1: didn't see them. It's anonymity, like it's just names. So
Speaker 1: like being able to spam them with all these and
Speaker 1: then be able to back it up and say, oh, here,
Speaker 1: we're also doing this experiment that like you are racist
Speaker 1: to your point is brilliant to me because it's both
Speaker 1: you're gonna get them politically and like kind of outward
Speaker 1: facing and getting them in the pocketbook is very smart,
Speaker 1: super super cool use of body technology or whatever it's called,
Speaker 1: and along the way to you know, like with just
Speaker 1: on social media, it's contributing to just massive support for
Speaker 1: organized labor in general. You know, like you have younger
Speaker 1: people in record numbers who are now like, yeah, this,
Speaker 1: this is what we need to have something some seemingly
Speaker 1: equitable future, they said. The National Labor Relations Board said
Speaker 1: there was a sixty increase in like workers finding union
Speaker 1: elections in the last six months, so like we're seeing
Speaker 1: we're actually seeing measurable increased activity around labor organizing. And
Speaker 1: they even said, this is the Gallup poll show that
Speaker 1: this is the highest support since nineteen sixty for unions.
Speaker 1: It was it's really interesting and right now, but people
Speaker 1: between the eight days of eighteen and thirty four support
Speaker 1: unions at a rate of seventy That's really interesting. That's
Speaker 1: actually something that like I've never thought of before, right, Like,
Speaker 1: are these younger generations aware of the labor movements that
Speaker 1: have happened in the past, like outside of just like oh,
Speaker 1: that was the civil rights that you know, And he
Speaker 1: was like, no, no, no, Like, are you aware of
Speaker 1: the literal labor movements? Like are you aware of like
Speaker 1: why unions exist? I just feel like maybe some of
Speaker 1: these younger folks haven't had exposure to this because they've
Speaker 1: just been like, oh, I have this job, like it's
Speaker 1: just not a thing, you know what I mean. And
Speaker 1: a lot of people are going into more skilled jobs
Speaker 1: as opposed to just like general labor jobs which traditionally
Speaker 1: are supported by unions, you know, outside of Like there's
Speaker 1: a whole labor movement going on in the cannabis movement
Speaker 1: right now. You know, people trying to unionize, you know,
Speaker 1: all the folks, and those are all staffed by a
Speaker 1: lot of young people. It's really interesting to see this
Speaker 1: that like maybe some people just this is their first
Speaker 1: exposure to unionization and that. And I think, like on TikTok,
Speaker 1: like I'm even learning about the union history from TikTok
Speaker 1: users too. So there there's like a that dance must
Speaker 1: go hard wid My knees are a little too weak
Speaker 1: to get that low sometimes. How many death drops I
Speaker 1: busted the back of my head trying to hit a
Speaker 1: death drop. I didn't realize how you're supposed to land.
Speaker 1: I just threw my body to the ground. Kay. But yeah,
Speaker 1: this is I think it It's just like it's it's
Speaker 1: hardening to hear people who have been observing, like labor
Speaker 1: movements say, like typically workers have been way behind trying
Speaker 1: to combat union busting because typically companies are so well
Speaker 1: funded that it's just a different landscape. But now because
Speaker 1: of technology, social media, like it's allowing for a lot
Speaker 1: of you know, people to experiment with ways to try
Speaker 1: and expose things or pushed back. And a lot of
Speaker 1: this did start. If your member was back in Texas
Speaker 1: when they were talking about like doing the anti abortion
Speaker 1: bills and there was a user who was like, you
Speaker 1: can you know, spam that website to try and get
Speaker 1: people to you know that where it's like you can
Speaker 1: report somebody and they're like, well, how about we flood
Speaker 1: your website with nonsense And then that you know, they
Speaker 1: ended up having to shut the website down. So there's
Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of things going on, but
Speaker 1: it's you know, this is this is the way the
Speaker 1: youth them are getting involved. Well I'm happy to hear it.
Speaker 1: And it's cool to see technology being used for something
Speaker 1: that actually you know, not that it's not used for
Speaker 1: things that are beneficial, but you know what I'm saying, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's cool to see the kids are the kids are
Speaker 1: all right, man and tech savvy to them, like, man,
Speaker 1: you want me to do what with python? A script?
Speaker 1: I don't like snakes dog? Yeah exactly, Like, hey, I'll
Speaker 1: pick it. I don't know how to do that other
Speaker 1: ship though, And so I think we're also seeing is
Speaker 1: like young more people are at a younger age or
Speaker 1: just getting such diversified skill sets because of like the
Speaker 1: amount of information that stuff. You can like train yourself
Speaker 1: and so many things if you have the will to
Speaker 1: do it. So it's interesting to see it all express
Speaker 1: itself in this way. Yeah, that's it's also a nice
Speaker 1: counterpoint to all the gen Z is actually fucking conservative, dude,
Speaker 1: the headlines that Business Insider is coming through with. And
Speaker 1: there there's that person that MSNBC lead on who is like,
Speaker 1: I'm a pro life gen Zer and actually the majority
Speaker 1: of gen Z eight out of ten or something that
Speaker 1: person said, yeah, which later not true, putting that person
Speaker 1: on TV. Yeah yeah, all right, let's talk speaking of
Speaker 1: the ban on abortion that may be coming our way.
Speaker 1: So Susan Collins, who has been like kind of a
Speaker 1: key figure in this whole fight because she was like
Speaker 1: always the hope that maybe she wouldn't be she wouldn't
Speaker 1: vote for Gorstch or Kavanaugh or Coney Barrett because she's
Speaker 1: supposed to be a moderate Republican had so people have
Speaker 1: been asking her, what you said, that you were only
Speaker 1: voting for them because you thought they would not overturned Row,
Speaker 1: and her responses not that she regrets supporting them, but
Speaker 1: that they lied. They lied. Do you believe it? She
Speaker 1: quote if these leaked draft opinion, if this leaked draft
Speaker 1: opinion is the final decision decision, and this reporting is accurate,
Speaker 1: it would be completely inconsistent with what Justice Gorstch and
Speaker 1: Justice Kavanaugh said in their hearings and in our meetings
Speaker 1: in my office. She claims she's always been saying, they
Speaker 1: told me that role was settled law, that it was precedent,
Speaker 1: that that was that's that's done and dusted. Meanwhile, Chuck
Speaker 1: Schumer was saying things at the same time. He said,
Speaker 1: when I spoke to Brett Kavanaugh, he wouldn't answer yes
Speaker 1: to the question of whether Row was settled law when
Speaker 1: I asked him, m hmm. So he made it clear
Speaker 1: to me where he was at, and he lied to
Speaker 1: your little naive as saying, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that's
Speaker 1: that's settled. That's settled, man, So I got your vote.
Speaker 1: Good good. Watch this ship. Now it's a very you know,
Speaker 1: it's it's it's dishearten. I don't know, it's disheartening because
Speaker 1: every time like it would come down to Murkowski and
Speaker 1: Collins and like, can they will they figure out that
Speaker 1: these are bad people to put on the bench. Uh,
Speaker 1: And they never did. So now she's dealing with a
Speaker 1: little bit of a fallout. People are upset obviously at
Speaker 1: what you know, this leaked opinion is indicating, and in
Speaker 1: a horrific display of partisan terrorism, Susan Collins woke up
Speaker 1: to her side something written on her sidewalk in front
Speaker 1: of her home in colored chalk, and threatened, don't don't
Speaker 1: if I say this out loud. I don't want to
Speaker 1: secret service coming from me. But I'm gonna say it
Speaker 1: because I'm a fucking rebel. Just you know, turn this down.
Speaker 1: Turn this down. If you have people around you that
Speaker 1: you can here, okay, you're you're about to be your
Speaker 1: your heart rate is going to speed up a little
Speaker 1: bit and justin you might have to bleep this out
Speaker 1: just to protect me. But I'm gonna say it because
Speaker 1: we're brave. Here it said, quote, Susie, please maynards want
Speaker 1: w h p A, which is the Women's Healthcare Protection Act?
Speaker 1: Vote yes, clean up your mess? Oh my god. And
Speaker 1: it was written in menacing chalk. Yes. And I do
Speaker 1: want to point out that the dot above the eye
Speaker 1: is a tiny uterus. So this is very threatening. You know,
Speaker 1: there's there's not only block letters, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: and multiple colors of chalk, there's an additional iconographic This
Speaker 1: is threatening. This is very threatening using such an informal
Speaker 1: way to address a senator Sthie, for real, are you
Speaker 1: trying to set my house on fire with that talk?
Speaker 1: What is going on? So, you know, she did what
Speaker 1: any responsible white woman would do in this situation, called
Speaker 1: the police. So she called the police and said, there's
Speaker 1: something awful outside my house. Can collect DNA samples? How
Speaker 1: do we how do we get to the bottom of this?
Speaker 1: Who they tried? The cops showed up and they said
Speaker 1: all right, and they left. A city sanitation worker came
Speaker 1: and just power washed it off. And then the comment
Speaker 1: from the police was, this wasn't an overtly threatening message.
Speaker 1: So I just like the mental space of this person
Speaker 1: right to know that when you when you're out here
Speaker 1: being like, I'm convinced this person is gonna take away
Speaker 1: your rights, even if you'd maybe believe it or really
Speaker 1: don't believe it, and then seeing the the fallout from
Speaker 1: your behavior and then being like, this is awful. This
Speaker 1: is terrible. What's going on? Like the disconnect there with
Speaker 1: what you're vote meets is really wild. Let's also talk
Speaker 1: about the white woman in her neighborhood fucking chalk bitch,
Speaker 1: make a sign, cover her fucking yard and signs, tick
Speaker 1: a ship on her porch, put a fucking paper flag
Speaker 1: and it's that's shaped like a uterus, and be like, bitch,
Speaker 1: what I'm gonna have all my unwanted children on your
Speaker 1: motherfucking front lawn. Vote yes, Like I just I think
Speaker 1: we need to be a lot louder about this. I'm
Speaker 1: just like this little cute, little fucking sidewalk drawing, get
Speaker 1: out of here, bitch, Susie please please, Oh my god, Susie,
Speaker 1: comma please. That's yeah, very very threatening stuff. And the
Speaker 1: tone police are out in full force. You know, still,
Speaker 1: whether it's this or other people like Democrats been like,
Speaker 1: I don't know if Brett Kavanaugh deserves to have all
Speaker 1: this ruckus by his house, you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Like they're already advancing bills to protect Supreme Court justices. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like wow, okay, what happened to, like, you know, codifying Row. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because you're like, no, no, no, I know you don't.
Speaker 1: Don't bring the smoke to a Supreme Court justice's house. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: Because again they're revealing it's very clear what they're trying
Speaker 1: to reveal. They want to maintain the status quot No,
Speaker 1: not necessarily that they they're saying, we want to protect
Speaker 1: this overturning of Row, but they certainly don't want a
Speaker 1: reality where people are organizing in mass and voicing their displeasure,
Speaker 1: because that's the road to o Where is the power
Speaker 1: then at that point, also, it's not please or thank you,
Speaker 1: it's please and thank you. So if they didn't want
Speaker 1: to be threatening, it should have been Susie, please, maynards
Speaker 1: want w h p A, but clean up your mess,
Speaker 1: thank you. So clearly this is the work of al Qaeda,
Speaker 1: I would say, mm hmm. I mean it's just wild.
Speaker 1: You know, you have Chris Coon's and John corn and
Speaker 1: a Democrat and Republican. They're introducing the bill with unanimous
Speaker 1: support to provide extended security protection for the immediate family
Speaker 1: members of Supreme Court Justices. And you're not you're not
Speaker 1: connecting the fucking dots. But listen, there are they are
Speaker 1: but bombs with tumblers full of white wine and sprite
Speaker 1: and a fucking pocket full of chalk. You know what
Speaker 1: I mean. It is a dangerous world out here, Miles.
Speaker 1: You're right, now, you're right, you're right. No, yeah, let's
Speaker 1: take a quick break. We'll be right back. And we're back,
Speaker 1: And I want to talk about like what we were
Speaker 1: just talking about, basically the fact that when somebody writes
Speaker 1: on someone's sidewalk and chalk or quietly protests out the
Speaker 1: outside of someone's house, and it's protesting a right wing
Speaker 1: policy being promoted by white Bible thumping men like they're
Speaker 1: the reaction is to protect the Bible thumping men. But
Speaker 1: on the other hand, I think a trend that is
Speaker 1: being there's just kind of been normalized just because it's
Speaker 1: like one of many pieces of bad news, but the
Speaker 1: whole like rhetoric coming off of the right that like
Speaker 1: anybody who talks to children makes room for children to
Speaker 1: have questions or even have gender affirming healthcare or you know,
Speaker 1: messages around them is a groomer. So this guy, Jack
Speaker 1: Califano tweeted last night the groomer and pedophile thing are
Speaker 1: the clearest moment where where I thought, oh, wow, they're
Speaker 1: really they really are planning on killing a lot of
Speaker 1: people eventually, because like if you read about genocides in
Speaker 1: history like Rwanda, you know, like modern history, all it
Speaker 1: takes is like government come flicity, which not hard to
Speaker 1: imagine Trump administration and a source of information that is
Speaker 1: just like reinforcing this messaging over and over again. And
Speaker 1: Rwanda was like radio state radio. But like, I don't know,
Speaker 1: it's just we're in a really dangerous place and I
Speaker 1: don't know how it gets less dangerous before, you know,
Speaker 1: Like we we've seen story of people accosting families with
Speaker 1: kay parents and public telling them, telling the kids they
Speaker 1: need to get away from their parents because they're groomers.
Speaker 1: And in the mainstream we've seen like the panic over
Speaker 1: like the quote from a Disney call where they're just
Speaker 1: talking about spreading acceptance and messaging about like acceptance and
Speaker 1: diversity and their work, and they've turned that into like
Speaker 1: they're trying to brainwash our kids and like groom them
Speaker 1: to like victimize them. So actually, I don't know, it's
Speaker 1: like that that tweet really like struck me as like
Speaker 1: actually really true and kind of like something we should
Speaker 1: be thinking about more and not to be like we
Speaker 1: we need to be like terrified. But this is a
Speaker 1: very like dangerous undercurrent that's only getting like louder and
Speaker 1: more surface level. I feel like I think people should
Speaker 1: be more terrified. Yeah, yeah, I mean it's it's terrifying
Speaker 1: overall because this is also a smoke screen for coming
Speaker 1: from real pedophiles. Yeah, do you know what I'm saying, Like,
Speaker 1: I mean, let's let's let's really look at this even further.
Speaker 1: This is a complete you know, this is a tactic
Speaker 1: in a group of people that we know are involved
Speaker 1: in trafficking and sex rings with children. And now that
Speaker 1: it's like, you know, to kind of reapply and to
Speaker 1: sort of project this onto you know, the gay population,
Speaker 1: and to try to use sort of the widespreadness of
Speaker 1: us trying to like understand more and to try to
Speaker 1: be accepting of trans people of all ages. Right, you know,
Speaker 1: this is a scary time and we should not be
Speaker 1: going backwards and forgetting and like it just it sucks
Speaker 1: because when you use things like pedophilia, it makes it
Speaker 1: easier for people to be pedophiles, right because people to
Speaker 1: redirect that attention somewhere else. And it's like, meanwhile, there's
Speaker 1: kids that are being hurt, Like I don't want to,
Speaker 1: you know, say that we shouldn't be aware of that
Speaker 1: because that is a real problem. But like it's such
Speaker 1: a slippery slope to move into be like no, now,
Speaker 1: let's just kill all gay people because gay people are
Speaker 1: the reason why pedophilia exists, and that's that they're not
Speaker 1: the same thing that that's they're told the conflation is
Speaker 1: precisely what they're going for. And I mean, you just
Speaker 1: even look right because for all the talk of like
Speaker 1: you know, you're gonna have to vote your way out
Speaker 1: of this or whatever, I mean, do you look at
Speaker 1: the maps and how jerrymandered there are. It's most political
Speaker 1: forecasters like I don't think that I don't know how
Speaker 1: the funk the Democrats are going to get a real
Speaker 1: majority in the Senate. Again, if you look at how
Speaker 1: these maps are going out, the jerrymandering works of voter suppression,
Speaker 1: that are they even thinking about it from their perspective too,
Speaker 1: it's like the deck is getting stacked increasingly, and it's
Speaker 1: a chance of of like being able to turn over
Speaker 1: politicians at a high rate is not very realistic. And
Speaker 1: I think the other thing that people don't realize too
Speaker 1: is how gridlocked state houses are too, especially in red states.
Speaker 1: It's it's very difficult. So I think, I don't know,
Speaker 1: I mean, I think this is this is just something
Speaker 1: that generally deserves more awareness because, like, like we're saying,
Speaker 1: even with this, with how Aldo is talking about this decision,
Speaker 1: the logic is almost it's basically boiling down to it's
Speaker 1: not literally in the constitution, it's not a right, yeah
Speaker 1: Jesus Christ. So that leads to gay marriage, that leads
Speaker 1: to contraception, that leads to so many other things like that.
Speaker 1: Now some states aren't going to do it the way,
Speaker 1: you know, like everyone, but like we said, like we
Speaker 1: touched on yesterday or the day before, how this could
Speaker 1: also lead to like interest state legal battles about trying
Speaker 1: to extradite people like to say this this doctor gave
Speaker 1: abortion care to this person from the state where it's illegal,
Speaker 1: and now want to charge you with attempted murders something
Speaker 1: like that. That is another quagmire that is, you know,
Speaker 1: on the horizon as well with as with things get
Speaker 1: more litigious, and fraud and accusations of like child abuse
Speaker 1: and child murder and things like that are always heavily
Speaker 1: involved in you know, the early stages of a build
Speaker 1: up to genocide, Like the anti Semitic belief that Jews
Speaker 1: were ritually murdering children was like a big part of
Speaker 1: like blood libel, which eventually you know, led to the Holocaust,
Speaker 1: you know, and all of this would be like less
Speaker 1: concerning if we didn't live in a society where right
Speaker 1: wing violence is like tolerated and left wing protesting for
Speaker 1: human rights is equated with terrorism. Like that is that
Speaker 1: is the mainstream response, Like that's you know, we we
Speaker 1: talked about it with Susan Collins, but there has been
Speaker 1: so much right wing extremism, and like the response from
Speaker 1: the right is to like openly put like screen a
Speaker 1: documentary where they're like, this is an attack on you,
Speaker 1: like something that like amps up the rhetoric. Like Tugger
Speaker 1: Carlson had that like January six like documentary that was
Speaker 1: basically claiming that any sort of attempt to address right
Speaker 1: wing extremism is a like political act by the left,
Speaker 1: political act of like attacking, and it's just so dangerous
Speaker 1: and heading in a more dangerous direction, and there's just
Speaker 1: like nothing really pushing back on it, you know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean again, why it's even more important to begin
Speaker 1: looking in your own community and understanding, like you know,
Speaker 1: those how mutual aid is works because it you know,
Speaker 1: there are there are there's there is a possibility for
Speaker 1: a positive outcome. But the way leadership is now in
Speaker 1: this country, it's it's hard to know that. I mean,
Speaker 1: there's just like they're so out of touch with everything
Speaker 1: that's happening. Katie Porter, who's the congress congresswoman from California
Speaker 1: who regularly gives really moving speeches or like interrogates bankers
Speaker 1: or other people. She and apparently like in a closed
Speaker 1: session meeting with other Democrats, she like got really emotional
Speaker 1: just talking about how expensive like just literally bacon is
Speaker 1: at the store and how many families are looking to
Speaker 1: be like holy sh it, sandwich bread is like five bucks,
Speaker 1: Like how the funk do And now I'm on the
Speaker 1: search for something that's like under four or cereals like
Speaker 1: seven or six and a half, and she was talking
Speaker 1: about just her experience as a as a provider, and
Speaker 1: the the the and the even the stress. She fell
Speaker 1: to be like, I don't know if I can buy
Speaker 1: ten dollars a ten dollar pack of bacon when I
Speaker 1: go to the store. And apparently she was saying after that,
Speaker 1: she said it was the first time she saw her
Speaker 1: colleagues kind of connect with what she was saying, and
Speaker 1: they said, but this isn't showing that. She said. Somebody
Speaker 1: came up to another congressman and said, this isn't showing
Speaker 1: up in the polling, and she said, you're not asking
Speaker 1: the right fucking question, correct. And that's I think so
Speaker 1: revealing is that so many there's only like a handful
Speaker 1: of people that are in Congress that are like, man,
Speaker 1: this ship is so bad for normal people, Like half
Speaker 1: of y'all are millionaire, mostly are millionaires, So what the
Speaker 1: funk would you know about? Like you barely bad and
Speaker 1: eye it's five dollar blow for for bread because the
Speaker 1: five dollars nothing to you. But if you have a
Speaker 1: budget and ship's increasing by orders of like twenty percent
Speaker 1: at a time, that throws your whole fucking life off.
Speaker 1: And that's the thing that they're not connecting within so
Speaker 1: many other things that you know, like every even like
Speaker 1: n g O s that are talking about the rise
Speaker 1: of fascism in the U S. They're like, Yeah, the
Speaker 1: way to combat it would be to combat inequality. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that's it. Don't don't allow the tension people experience to
Speaker 1: be co opted by other people's narratives, say to put
Speaker 1: fascism and ship in their head and be like, and
Speaker 1: that's why you're broke. Well, I think it's so important
Speaker 1: to like people on the coasts, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: It's so easy because we do make more money people
Speaker 1: who live on the coast, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: then the rest of the country. And I think it's
Speaker 1: so easy to get out of perspective, to get so
Speaker 1: angry about the wrong stuff, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: And not that like there's right stuff and wrong stuff,
Speaker 1: but they're kind of is you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: Like you need to be aware of what all these
Speaker 1: decisions are doing and how they're impacting the people that
Speaker 1: live in the middle and live in other areas like
Speaker 1: being down here, correct, you know, it could be the
Speaker 1: other side of the city that you don't drive to
Speaker 1: that you don't see, you know what I mean, It's
Speaker 1: like you just need to open your eyes and be aware.
Speaker 1: Like being down here there South is definitely like given
Speaker 1: me a new perspective on everything, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: because there's just such a huge juxtaposition of very very
Speaker 1: poor and people who are just like not on the internet,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, and just stuff that is
Speaker 1: a little bit different. But it's there's such a divide
Speaker 1: in our country and it is terrifying. It's terrifying and
Speaker 1: it's sad. And I think we just need to be
Speaker 1: able to get over like our philosophy as a nation
Speaker 1: that needing help is bad because I think that that's
Speaker 1: that mentality extends to you know, men in the just
Speaker 1: ridiculously high suicide rates and other things like there's just
Speaker 1: there's not a culture of saying you're vulnerable in this country,
Speaker 1: and that's that's not okay because like, oh, what you're poor? Okay,
Speaker 1: how poor are you? Do you deserve this? Like what
Speaker 1: the fuck I said? I need help? I said I
Speaker 1: can't afford food, and now you're means testing this ship.
Speaker 1: I just need help or and and the shame that
Speaker 1: goes along with that and I think, and that we're
Speaker 1: constantly making people feel ashamed of that rather than saying
Speaker 1: we need to just embrace people that need help and
Speaker 1: that's fine. People need to be more open to say
Speaker 1: I mean not to say people aren't expressing that, but
Speaker 1: culturally that's still we're still not at that point where
Speaker 1: we lable yeah, and we embrace that. And there's not
Speaker 1: a full time job's worth of work to get the help,
Speaker 1: which is current way it works. You have to suddenly
Speaker 1: work twenty hours a week to just manage the insane,
Speaker 1: insanely understaffed system of the government and government subsidies and help,
Speaker 1: and all those offices are only open during the hours
Speaker 1: that you are at work, and your children, you know,
Speaker 1: are are not at school. So it's like you have
Speaker 1: to sacrifice either your own job, your child care, or
Speaker 1: your child's education in order to facilitate, like you said,
Speaker 1: getting those services. Right, there's some stuff you can't even
Speaker 1: do online. You gotta go in there. You gotta show
Speaker 1: them some piece of paper, you gotta you know, it's terrible.
Speaker 1: It's like how you suck someone to work and then
Speaker 1: you also come in here between eight and two pm.
Speaker 1: And that's how we save money. That's how the government. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then we can still pat ourselves on the back saying, hey,
Speaker 1: I signed that bill not allowed for that, but yeah
Speaker 1: but we but we we kneecap that little provision to
Speaker 1: the point that did is gonna do fun all. Don't worry.
Speaker 1: But I can help tell them for money and resources
Speaker 1: to take advantage of every break the government wants to
Speaker 1: give them as corporations and rich people. Lydia, such a
Speaker 1: pleasure having you as always. Thanks. Where can people find you?
