Speaker 1: I first knew through podcasts, then eventually being on each
Speaker 1: other's podcast. We became very familiar. We became pretty friendly.
Speaker 1: We found out we have a lot of shared interests. Uh,
Speaker 1: you might know him from you know, I don't fucking
Speaker 1: anything that's funny because this guy's an L E G
Speaker 1: E N D in our books. But I guess to
Speaker 1: start off, maybe you didn't know about him from UCB,
Speaker 1: So maybe you saw him on Guy Code. Maybe I
Speaker 1: heard him as the intern on Comedy Bang Bang. Maybe
Speaker 1: I heard him team up with Lauren Lapkiss talking about
Speaker 1: how that was raised by TV. Maybe you know him
Speaker 1: about Action Boys. Maybe you know about how you Mighty.
Speaker 1: I don't know. I could keep going, but let's welcome
Speaker 1: Long Islands, Strong Islands, very own. Mr John Gabriel. Yeah
Speaker 1: it's John Gabriel, a k A. Vanilla covered everything. Yeah,
Speaker 1: yogurt covered raisins, grossiest slash whitest food ever, yogurt covered
Speaker 1: raising It's like he neither thing tastes good. Yeah. Do
Speaker 1: you ever remember seeing those things like in a grocery store,
Speaker 1: like in the nuts section. You're like, those might be
Speaker 1: good because they look like candy, and then you eat,
Speaker 1: You're like, what the funk? I think it's like congealed
Speaker 1: fat on that's the most kids shit ever. Is Like, Okay,
Speaker 1: this looks as close to candy air cookie, Like when
Speaker 1: you're eating, like fucking I'm an Italian, so growing up
Speaker 1: eating biscotti, it's like, oh, yes, it's like a cookie,
Speaker 1: and then you eat it. It's nothing like a cookie,
Speaker 1: but it's the only thing in the capitol. I broke
Speaker 1: my canines on how hard it was. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I wasn't a baby. Yeah, that was like I remember
Speaker 1: in the early nineties, like when biscotti is like just
Speaker 1: like took over. The US were like, I guess some
Speaker 1: food executive went to Italy and it was like, hold on, man,
Speaker 1: they these things that I thought was a straight up
Speaker 1: bone and it's a fucking It's an amazing companion to
Speaker 1: a hot beverage? Is that what the BUSCOTTI is? I've
Speaker 1: never had a BUSCOTTI because I don't drink coffee. I
Speaker 1: feel like you have to drink coffee to have a biscotti, right,
Speaker 1: like typically, yeah, that's why it hits so grossly. When
Speaker 1: you're like eleven years old and and like your parents
Speaker 1: are like, well it's better with coffee. It's like, I
Speaker 1: can't coffee. They didn't give you that best part of
Speaker 1: waking up when you were eleven. No, I didn't start
Speaker 1: drinking coffee till after college until I moved to Brooklyn
Speaker 1: and I got caught up in the culture of it,
Speaker 1: like going to coffee shops and now I'm addicted to caffeine.
Speaker 1: And which culture is that? I think that's Brooklyn, Uh,
Speaker 1: Brooklyn hipster culture. You're let's meet at a cafe and
Speaker 1: you're like, I don't really drink coffee, And after you've
Speaker 1: had your like fourth iced tea from the fridge, you're like,
Speaker 1: let me just try a fucking coffee. Sorry, And then
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you're like, Wow, this ship it works.
Speaker 1: I see why every adult meets it. Wait, I'm growing strong.
Speaker 1: I still don't do I'll go and I'll just have
Speaker 1: water or tea at a coffee shop. If somebody you freak,
Speaker 1: I don't like chocolate. I don't like coffee. Get the funk.
Speaker 1: I don't even know how to relate to you. You
Speaker 1: don't know, you don't you vanilla covered and I'm chocolate covered.
Speaker 1: That's not the part I have a hard time. The
Speaker 1: difficult part is if given the opportunity to have one
Speaker 1: thing of chocolate, you would have a butterfinger that I
Speaker 1: want to write you fucking off his head. Almos fell off.
Speaker 1: I was like, oh no, I like chocolate, just butterfinger.
Speaker 1: It's like, that's say I don't like music, just record
Speaker 1: scratch yoch Man. It's a whole aesthetic texture. Wait, you
Speaker 1: didn't start drinking coffee to your after college? What what
Speaker 1: did you do to stay away in college and petamans
Speaker 1: like the rest of us. H Yeah, I had blue
Speaker 1: bookers every once in a while in college early two
Speaker 1: thousand's add of all was blue and you would wake
Speaker 1: in the morning that gel cap time released. Yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: but you can get you can kind of chop it
Speaker 1: up in a stuff parts you need anyway, the blue drip.
Speaker 1: Maybe talking about how Jews were othered in the New
Speaker 1: Testament starting with the Stony of Stephen isn't gonna right itself?
Speaker 1: That paper here we go. I was a radio TV
Speaker 1: film major, so I didn't have to do anything of importance.
Speaker 1: It's crazy that the last ten years it was weird
Speaker 1: to have radio. Like I'm like, oh, I'm so old.
Speaker 1: I have radio in my college major and now at
Speaker 1: forty radio is probably the thing I do the most.
Speaker 1: Like the new version of radio, whatever this ship is,
Speaker 1: I'm like, holy fuck, full circle, it's back. You hear
Speaker 1: that children. Don't let anybody tell you college doesn't matter,
Speaker 1: doesn't works. Has put in his degree to work. I
Speaker 1: went to theater school, and like, whenever I want to
Speaker 1: sound important, I say, oh, my degree is in communications. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: that's what I say, but it's true. I'm communicating you
Speaker 1: are you've been otherwise, Gabriel. I saw you've been been
Speaker 1: on a like a sojourn around the I went on
Speaker 1: a cruise around French Polynesia with my wife and in laws,
Speaker 1: and uh, I mean not not the ideal companions for
Speaker 1: a trip like that, but I mean, yeah, my wife
Speaker 1: is an ideal menu. I don't need to go away
Speaker 1: with her parents after having them at our house for
Speaker 1: a week leading up. But this is the most beautiful
Speaker 1: place on Earth man so far that I've seen. It's
Speaker 1: everything I wanted more than Long Island. Yeah, it's weird.
Speaker 1: It's a bunch of short islands, but it's still hits
Speaker 1: harder than even one Long Island. Polynesian culture is so interesting,
Speaker 1: the food is awesome, that everything is beautiful, and everyone
Speaker 1: references James Cameron whether like James Cameron owns something over
Speaker 1: and you realize this is where Homie came up. With Avatar,
Speaker 1: like when you like because the wildlife is so different.
Speaker 1: The ocean is so clear, and we know Avatar too,
Speaker 1: is all underwater. I guarantee it looks like Bora Bora,
Speaker 1: Huahini and all these all these islands. Because they kept
Speaker 1: talking about how much he loved because he's also a
Speaker 1: Scooba guy and ship so they were talking about how
Speaker 1: much he loves it there, and I was like, this
Speaker 1: makes total sense. Now I'm gonna rewatch Avatar tonight. After
Speaker 1: going to French, a newfound enjoyment of everything you're being
Speaker 1: in French Polynesia. I've never been in water that clear,
Speaker 1: with the exception of like a diving tank in high school.
Speaker 1: Swimming like this was just so fucking unreal. The visibility
Speaker 1: I had scuba dived with like forty sharks, like a
Speaker 1: full school of reef sharks. It was fucking terrifying and exciting. Yeah,
Speaker 1: holy sh it. Highly recommended if you have the means,
Speaker 1: get yourself to French Polynesia. I think a cruise is
Speaker 1: an expensive and dumb way to do it. There's probably
Speaker 1: way smarter, cooler ways. You'll figure it out. I was
Speaker 1: just tagging along on my in laws vacation cruise life.
Speaker 1: We all know Jackie's loves cruise life. I didn't know
Speaker 1: that that's and I'm going on my sixth one, going
Speaker 1: on my COVID cruise and this year baby ads that
Speaker 1: like Carnival put out looking for comics to perform, and
Speaker 1: it was like the worst perks. It was like, yeah, man,
Speaker 1: like you can get like a room them for like
Speaker 1: a second. There's like no talk of money. It's just
Speaker 1: like and you'll have access to the dining car one
Speaker 1: hour before you know what I mean, like and it's
Speaker 1: all like, wait, where am I getting paid in there?
Speaker 1: It's like, oh, you think the Carnival ride is like
Speaker 1: you gotta ride the elevator with people you bombed in
Speaker 1: front of, like I don't want to be at the
Speaker 1: buffet and being like, hey you said a weird Jokeler,
Speaker 1: I'm like I I don't don't make eye contact with me.
Speaker 1: He's like, man, my shifts not even on yet. I
Speaker 1: gotta go to balloon Animals and the Kid's deck at
Speaker 1: about fourteen minutes, so I got man. Well, before we
Speaker 1: get to know even better, John, let's look at some
Speaker 1: of the stories we're talking about, one of them being
Speaker 1: those damn texts that all those Fox hosts were exchanging
Speaker 1: on January six. We talked about how they were read aloud,
Speaker 1: but now we just want to watch them kind of
Speaker 1: you know, pivot and get very uncomfortable trying to explain that,
Speaker 1: you know how they very clearly saw that what was
Speaker 1: happening was being controlled by the president. But we'll touch
Speaker 1: base with the sort of their explanations there. We'll also
Speaker 1: talk about one of the insurrectionists from January six, so
Speaker 1: I didn't really know about who got to the He
Speaker 1: got to the insurrection late, but he still managed to
Speaker 1: funk around enough that he found out in a very
Speaker 1: federal kind of way, so we'll paste with that. And
Speaker 1: also the cops. Again, we have to talk about the cops,
Speaker 1: but this very specific form of copaganda, which is the
Speaker 1: arresting of the Grinch every fucking holiday season that we
Speaker 1: see and just how like pervasive it is, and just
Speaker 1: like that it's really just a low key, like you know,
Speaker 1: sig up to get kids to you know, love the police.
Speaker 1: So we will tackle that and many more things. But first,
Speaker 1: Gabriel's John g let us know something from your search
Speaker 1: history that reveals something about you. Well, pretty obvious, But
Speaker 1: the most reason why I have is short board shorts
Speaker 1: size x x l uh that never go away, go
Speaker 1: away ever. Ever hard to find, hard to find short
Speaker 1: board shorts uh in my size. So that's what I'm
Speaker 1: on the hunt for. If any listeners here are girthy
Speaker 1: individuals and have access to short, vintage looking board shorts,
Speaker 1: that's what your boys in the market force. What are
Speaker 1: you looking for? When you say it, what's what? Like
Speaker 1: not just to swim trunk, a short trunk, but has
Speaker 1: to be a board short, Like what are you tell what?
Speaker 1: It doesn't have to be, but the I want like
Speaker 1: board shorts, like I need a little stretch, I need
Speaker 1: a little shortness to show the thighs. You can't really
Speaker 1: surf in a budgee smuggler, which is what I normally
Speaker 1: wear at the beach. Is a speedo, but you can't
Speaker 1: really surfing it because it like could chafe your thighs
Speaker 1: and stuff. So I just want and I don't need
Speaker 1: to get I'm already getting roasted by every surfer that's
Speaker 1: out there as I am on a fucking ten foot
Speaker 1: foam padded board, Like it's like a fucking canoe, and
Speaker 1: I'm just wiping out in the fucking shore break. They
Speaker 1: all know I'm a kuk. So I just want I
Speaker 1: just want want to be able to uh not look
Speaker 1: not also being a speed out. Oh god, it so
Speaker 1: you want you you don't want to immediately be idd
Speaker 1: as a kok out there? I need like one yeah, exactly,
Speaker 1: I need one layer of illusion. Yeah, coming up to
Speaker 1: the water you wanted to be like and then when
Speaker 1: you might have what it takes. And then they see
Speaker 1: me in the water absolutely floundering with my nipples bleeding,
Speaker 1: they know what it up. You're an Arianna Huffington out there, somebody.
Speaker 1: So I was in Hawaii a couple of months ago
Speaker 1: and like I went to a beach and they surfers
Speaker 1: being cracking me up, man, because they always pretend they
Speaker 1: was like, yo, you're not gonna get in the water.
Speaker 1: I was just lambing the beach and enjoying myself, had
Speaker 1: a little uh cut water vaka mule or Moscow mule
Speaker 1: and drinking, enjoying myself. And then it's like surfer dude
Speaker 1: comes up, Hey, man, you want to join the class.
Speaker 1: You want to get in the water. And I was like,
Speaker 1: oh man, I can't even swim like that. He was like,
Speaker 1: you don't need to swim on like, then stop lying. Yes,
Speaker 1: you got to know how to swim, to sir, you can.
Speaker 1: You should never say to someone that says I can't swim,
Speaker 1: should go na getting the ocean. You shouldn't even get
Speaker 1: on a fucking you're you love cruising and you can't swim.
Speaker 1: I get some lessons justin Yeah, I can stay alive
Speaker 1: on the cruise. I'm not. I'm not falling off the boat.
Speaker 1: Someone just fell off. Woman just fell off the boat
Speaker 1: in Mexico, and and swimming didn't help her. She did. No, No,
Speaker 1: you're right, fair enough. Never learned to swim fall off
Speaker 1: a boat than they gonna help you. You go to
Speaker 1: argue that, bro, especially if the person who pushes you
Speaker 1: off doesn't say anything. Never let the captain. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: that's wow. She was saying something and then vanished. That's weird. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I guess maybe not. Let's check her. Maybe check the casino.
Speaker 1: She must be on those spots. That state room, the
Speaker 1: scene of a murder always. But yeah, you know, I
Speaker 1: like short shorts too. I'm thigh gang. I recently I
Speaker 1: had a suit made for myself, and I really like
Speaker 1: pants are always the hard bit to get tailored. And
Speaker 1: when I was getting fitted, the dude getting my measurements like, yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, you would probably always need to have made,
Speaker 1: like pants custom made. He's like. The seat, He's like,
Speaker 1: your waist is at thirty four, but the actual seat
Speaker 1: that you need for your thighs is of a thirty eight,
Speaker 1: so you could either go thirty eight and have them
Speaker 1: tailored down. He's like, but yeah, you would have trouble
Speaker 1: finding pants that normally fits you because and every time
Speaker 1: I wear pleated pants, the pleat is gone. My thighs thick.
Speaker 1: I'm the same. I have huge thighs, a big belly,
Speaker 1: and no ass. Pants fit me in the weirdest fucking ways, Dude,
Speaker 1: Like they hang off the back, they bunch in the
Speaker 1: thigh and like flapping in the butt. I got mad
Speaker 1: space in and look, let's be honest, I got extra
Speaker 1: space in the front too. You know, no ask, no dick,
Speaker 1: big belly, thick thighs, clear heart, can't lose it lose.
Speaker 1: I understand what I look like. You remember the Montreal
Speaker 1: expos logo that they look like a D and the B.
Speaker 1: That's how my eyes and ass look big and a
Speaker 1: big asss just don't pass me. Fucking me up. Man,
Speaker 1: you got that back porch that we love, gab, So
Speaker 1: what's something you think is overrated? Cars? I'm tired of them.
Speaker 1: I'm what they're doing our beautiful earth that uh the
Speaker 1: fucking there. They kill people all the time. I've been
Speaker 1: trying to live a more pedestrian life in the quarantine.
Speaker 1: Like in the last couple of years in l A.
Speaker 1: I was like, I'm gonna just go to more close
Speaker 1: places and I'm gonna walk more places. Are I'm gonna
Speaker 1: walk for dumb errands for both like fitness and like
Speaker 1: connecting with the city more. And it really being a
Speaker 1: pedestrian in l A really changed my viewpoint of l A.
Speaker 1: And and like when you go to all these fucking
Speaker 1: European cities that are like you can walk everywhere in
Speaker 1: Barcelona and it's like so cal has the weather. We
Speaker 1: should be biking and walking everywhere, like drive should be
Speaker 1: for only over two miles, like and if we just
Speaker 1: made it safer to walk or to bike both in
Speaker 1: like you know, there's like crosswalks every like eleven blocks
Speaker 1: on Melrose and it's like this is so dange and
Speaker 1: people just keep like, kick two lanes out of there,
Speaker 1: put an electric bus in there, give me a bike
Speaker 1: lane so that these schooner things aren't dangerous. And ship
Speaker 1: just cars in general are overrated, and they're just getting bigger,
Speaker 1: these fucking protester plowers that people are buying, like these
Speaker 1: f three fifties and ship. It's like that's just more gas,
Speaker 1: more size, harder to harder to find parking, harder to
Speaker 1: see on the road. As every car gets bigger and
Speaker 1: shipped too, it's like we're just heading in a direction
Speaker 1: where and people are like, I need the big car
Speaker 1: to feel safe, and it's like we should have to
Speaker 1: feel like it should just be safe. We shouldn't need
Speaker 1: like extra like so we're doing something wrong. Cars are
Speaker 1: fucking overrated, and I understand that they're part of the
Speaker 1: American Foundation, but so was racism, and we should get
Speaker 1: a not to equate the two, but a lot of
Speaker 1: ships that helped build America we do not need anymore. Yeah,
Speaker 1: don't have somebody come by to do a foundation inspection
Speaker 1: on the home that is the US, because oh my god,
Speaker 1: O lord, there's like crimes again. I think the foundation
Speaker 1: is a crime against humanity. I don't know quite literally,
Speaker 1: like the movie Poltergeist buried on a native burial ground,
Speaker 1: Like we're oh yeah, not to mention all the other
Speaker 1: awful ship in the less, we're just trying to compound
Speaker 1: the karmage at the point where it just makes sense
Speaker 1: what people read about the eventual demise of this place.
Speaker 1: I think to like, I mean, honestly, you know, I mean,
Speaker 1: you're from New York, come from Chicago, sorry miles you're
Speaker 1: from Los Angeles, right, that's correct. Yeah, so likely one
Speaker 1: of the most unwalkable places, one of the most cost
Speaker 1: places where I got grew up walking barefoot on asphalt
Speaker 1: that was hundreds of degrees to the point where like
Speaker 1: I used it as a right of passes and like,
Speaker 1: oh you were in sandals feet maybe, but you know,
Speaker 1: like the more walkable places. I mean, you know, I've
Speaker 1: never been to many European cities, but in America generally
Speaker 1: have public transportation. And that's our big thing, because if
Speaker 1: you have public transportation, like you said, anything over two miles, well,
Speaker 1: with public transportation, you can take that and then you
Speaker 1: can still live in a walkable city even if you
Speaker 1: have to go over to three, four or five miles away.
Speaker 1: I feel I feel like if we pitched yo l A,
Speaker 1: if we get public transit, you could look at your
Speaker 1: phone your entire commute and not risk anyone. Everyone in
Speaker 1: l A is drunk, stoned, or on their phone while driving.
Speaker 1: It's like, those are all three things that are completely
Speaker 1: safe to be on public transit. Get highest fucking look
Speaker 1: at your only You can watch a movie on your
Speaker 1: phone as you commute to work. Doesn't that sound appealing people?
Speaker 1: Because the question is, as someone who makes less than
Speaker 1: a hundred and thirty thousand dollars a year and doesn't
Speaker 1: go shop with Whole Foods, is there a chance that
Speaker 1: they might step off one of these metro stops in
Speaker 1: my neighborhood, which is always the thing that stops because
Speaker 1: fucking Beverly Hills and Santa Monica is always like the
Speaker 1: they always deliver the death blow for any like major
Speaker 1: transit project because like, we don't want people cut getting
Speaker 1: off here. Yeah, I mean, because you know we go
Speaker 1: robbing when you know we were robbing people. You know
Speaker 1: that's obvious, but still yeah, stick in shoplifting crime once
Speaker 1: the subway is built. Well, what's wild though, too, is
Speaker 1: even in l A, like statistically, I'm pretty sure like
Speaker 1: property crime has gone down, which interesting fact, but we
Speaker 1: still have you know, gotta gotta beat the drums of
Speaker 1: food they try to do fund the pot. We need
Speaker 1: to put more people out there because someone went to
Speaker 1: CBS to get food for their babies at Public transportation
Speaker 1: also blows up a little bit of the central city
Speaker 1: system where it's not as crazy to live outside of
Speaker 1: the city. If you have an easy way in, you
Speaker 1: don't have to take a one on one jam. But
Speaker 1: traffic and we're all we have insanely expensive real estate.
Speaker 1: We are all on top of each other. And if
Speaker 1: we get some fucking public transit or you know, the
Speaker 1: bus from past Altadena down, like we can all move
Speaker 1: a little further away from the city center and still exist.
Speaker 1: Like you can live in the quote unquote outer burrows
Speaker 1: of Los Angeles. I would love to live in Pasadena.
Speaker 1: I feel like, I feel like it's a huge problem solver.
Speaker 1: It's like like public transit allows also fuck Santa Monica
Speaker 1: and funck Beverly Hills for being like, we can't have
Speaker 1: poor people coming into our town. You don't give a
Speaker 1: funk when they come in to work at your fucking
Speaker 1: restaurants and ship or some complex. I don't want to
Speaker 1: be like the racist one percenter. You can go to
Speaker 1: Beverly Hills be like this would make it easier for
Speaker 1: people who work here to get here, and they'll be
Speaker 1: less cars on the road, so you can all have
Speaker 1: your white Ben's SUVs lined up in fucking on the
Speaker 1: street without having to share a park in front of
Speaker 1: crustacean when I used to when I used to be
Speaker 1: a tour guy and was driving the Rosta bus in
Speaker 1: l A. Rost You used to drive the Rosta bus, Dude,
Speaker 1: I had no idea. That's fucking wild, Rosa. Do you
Speaker 1: know how nerve wracking it was to drive down Rodeo
Speaker 1: Drive where the fucking Maserati or got damn Porsche or
Speaker 1: uh Lamborghini and my big as. I'll hit a camera
Speaker 1: all day, but I don't want to hit this fucking
Speaker 1: Rolls Royce. You may guarantee the owner of the Rolls
Speaker 1: Royce is litigious a f he is, of course the
Speaker 1: camera will be like, oh man, it's all good, bro,
Speaker 1: It's just a little scratch you good everything. Irene like
Speaker 1: to the Rosta bus. Yeah it's what because that's the
Speaker 1: other part of Beverly Hills. It's the most expensive cars
Speaker 1: where people drive worse than the rest of l a somehow.
Speaker 1: Like when I used to work at Playboy, they're headquartered
Speaker 1: out there, like right by the city, like Civic Center
Speaker 1: down there, Beverly Hills. Anytime we would go walk into
Speaker 1: Beverly Hills for lunch, there wasn't a time like you
Speaker 1: could set foot in a fucking crosswalk and have some
Speaker 1: asshole who wasn't looking turned making a right turn, just
Speaker 1: like cutting through the sidewalk, and You're like, I just
Speaker 1: need to man up, take this traumatic brain injury real
Speaker 1: quick and get a great lawsuits settlement out of this
Speaker 1: and then I'll be good. But Beverly Hills is the
Speaker 1: best place to go if you want to get hit
Speaker 1: by a lime green Lamborghini. Right these motherfucker's bottoming out
Speaker 1: going into the the fucking parking garages and ship it's
Speaker 1: like just the normal car. Like, no, then, how will
Speaker 1: they know that I have generational wealth? I'm nineteening with
Speaker 1: an inexplicable car. Uh gabore? So what's the anything is overrated? Underrated? Underrated?
Speaker 1: Oh okay, I'm gonna have to go with the movie
Speaker 1: The last Duel. It got a lot of fucking heat
Speaker 1: because yeah, it's it's mad good, it's a it's a
Speaker 1: Ridley Scott period piece. It looks fucking magnificent, it's pretty funny,
Speaker 1: and yes it does feature sexual assault, but that is
Speaker 1: the crux of the story, is a sort of like
Speaker 1: everyone telling their version of the story. And if if
Speaker 1: all these people who are up in arms about it
Speaker 1: watched it, it it lands in the right place. But
Speaker 1: it's of a time period that it were awful for women,
Speaker 1: and I think they demonstrate that in the movie. Ridley
Speaker 1: Scott is like eighty something years old and he dropped
Speaker 1: two of the biggest movies of the year. That and
Speaker 1: how Sigucci, that's fucking baller ship for eighties something you're
Speaker 1: all British guy to be doing. Also, i've been from
Speaker 1: from a studio perspective. I think maybe a terrible move
Speaker 1: like that. Maybe they're cannibalizing each other films out at
Speaker 1: the same because I remember I saw it up. That's like,
Speaker 1: was it Ridley Scott blaming millennials for the poor performance
Speaker 1: of the film or what do you say, like attentions
Speaker 1: fan or something? It was that was not true because
Speaker 1: we fucking watched four hours of Infinity War. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: what they don't understand is also it's like, no, you're
Speaker 1: not making movies for millennials, Like, that's not that's not
Speaker 1: what millennials are watching. No matter the length, you can
Speaker 1: make a ninety minute movie, but they're not going to
Speaker 1: Like I'm forty and Ben Affleck and Matt Damon are
Speaker 1: kind of old and corny to me. I love them,
Speaker 1: and I'm a huge Affleck apologist. I think he's a
Speaker 1: fantastic actor, even better director, But I like I understand
Speaker 1: that a twenty two year old doesn't give a funk
Speaker 1: that Matt Damon and Ben Affleck are in a Ridley
Speaker 1: Scott period piece. Those are all words that when I
Speaker 1: was twenty two would make me. I wasn't you know,
Speaker 1: when I was in my early twenties, I wasn't seeing
Speaker 1: good movies, but I was going to the movies. Going
Speaker 1: to the movies is even less of a thing now
Speaker 1: because it's a fucking pandemic Ridley, It's expensive and people
Speaker 1: would rather watch fucking t Everyone has fucking sixty in
Speaker 1: screens in their house. It's it's a hard competition. I'm
Speaker 1: a huge purveyor of going to see movies in the theater.
Speaker 1: It's so it's a true communal experience. But Ridley Scott,
Speaker 1: you're off base saying it's like a tension span base something.
Speaker 1: Also like all the billboards and ship. Now you know,
Speaker 1: I'm thirty five, so I love movies. I love good movies,
Speaker 1: bad movies. I'm a movie guy. I love the theater.
Speaker 1: It also doesn't appeal to me to see like more
Speaker 1: white people on billboards in a period piece, like I
Speaker 1: don't go see an all white movie, but a period
Speaker 1: piece like come on, man, I don't want to see
Speaker 1: that ship further back in time. Just tell somebody else
Speaker 1: to give somebody else the fucking mike for a second.
Speaker 1: Chances are you gonna have a way better fucking movie.
Speaker 1: The thing that Ridley Scott said was that you know
Speaker 1: that he was asked, I guess he went on on
Speaker 1: Marc Maron's podcast this is where it was said, and
Speaker 1: he was asked about, you know, like what do you
Speaker 1: think about the performance, Like was it the promotion that
Speaker 1: Disney may be messed up? And he said, no, Disney
Speaker 1: did a fantastic promotion The Last Duels Low piz Oh.
Speaker 1: He said, the bosses love the movie, because I was
Speaker 1: concerned it was not for them, but they really liked
Speaker 1: the movie, so they're advertising publicity, et cetera. Was excellent.
Speaker 1: I think what it boils down to, well, we've got
Speaker 1: today are the audience who's who were brought up on
Speaker 1: these fucking cell phones. The millennial Okay his words, the
Speaker 1: millennium do not ever want to be taught anything unless
Speaker 1: you are told it on the cell phone. This is
Speaker 1: a broad stroke, but I think we're dealing with it
Speaker 1: right now. With Facebook, there's a misdirection that has happened
Speaker 1: where it's given the wrong kind of confidence to this
Speaker 1: latest generation. I think, also, man, when a motherfucker's gonna
Speaker 1: finally learn that millennials we hain't the latest generation no
Speaker 1: more technically a millennial. Yeah. Well, I also think let's
Speaker 1: stop asking eighties something you're old, how they feel about
Speaker 1: modern culture. It's like these people were alive when they
Speaker 1: you sat at a different fucking counter than someone who
Speaker 1: looked different than you. It's like, I don't need like
Speaker 1: stop asking Marty Scorsese what he thinks about Dr Strange.
Speaker 1: He's a fucking old man who makes a different It's like,
Speaker 1: it's like going up to fucking Bob Dylan and being like,
Speaker 1: how do you feel about you know twitch DJ's It's like, dude,
Speaker 1: it's just not the same man. It's a it's a
Speaker 1: completely different fucking medium and everyone loves to Oh, the
Speaker 1: Disney Exacts loved it. I can't believe kids didn't love it. Well,
Speaker 1: no ship. If a Disney Exact left, that's not a
Speaker 1: sign that it's a zite guy, Steve, but I highly recommended.
Speaker 1: When it comes out on v o D or streaming
Speaker 1: or whatever, definitely check it out. It's it's funny. The
Speaker 1: VI this is amazing, And yes it is all white heads,
Speaker 1: but they are a lot of the best working white
Speaker 1: heads out there. Damon affleck Driver and Jody Comber. Everyone's great, yeah,
Speaker 1: but wildly white movie they're not. They're like, they're playing
Speaker 1: French Nights and they don't speak in French. So it's like,
Speaker 1: you could definitely have a brother in there if you're
Speaker 1: not gonna like in the show The Great where they're
Speaker 1: all Russian, they don't. There are black and Hispanic brown
Speaker 1: people all over the all over the show, and no
Speaker 1: one speaks with a Russian accent. Every but it's like,
Speaker 1: if you're gonna go to conceit, where to make it
Speaker 1: more palatable for modern culture, go one step further and
Speaker 1: show some other people there. But yeah, don't use like
Speaker 1: this said argument, like, well it's not like actually an
Speaker 1: accurate depiction of what was around. There's like but they're
Speaker 1: talking like they're like southeast actually, like we have Boston, France,
Speaker 1: Like what the funk is this? Oh yeah, we're in Roxbury,
Speaker 1: fucking rants near nice That Damon has a mullet and
Speaker 1: Ben Affleck has blonde hair. Might be worth it just
Speaker 1: to see those freaks, just for those costumes. All right,
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break. We'll be right back and
Speaker 1: we'll talk about like I guess, less important those And
Speaker 1: we're back, and it's time to check in on Sean
Speaker 1: Hannity and Laura Ingram, some of the people over at Fox.
Speaker 1: You know, they who had some splaining to do in
Speaker 1: regards to the now public text messages that they exchanged
Speaker 1: with Trump's chief of staff Mark Meadows on January six.
Speaker 1: And I think it was pretty clear to anybody who,
Speaker 1: you know, whether they read the text or heard Liz
Speaker 1: Jane you read them aloud, that they were the words
Speaker 1: of people who knew that Trump was in control of
Speaker 1: what was happening, that he got them to gather there,
Speaker 1: he got them to march on the Capitol, and when
Speaker 1: she really started going down, he was probably the only
Speaker 1: person who was going to be able to pump the
Speaker 1: brakes on the whole thing. Yet, even though those texts
Speaker 1: said that things like you gotta get them to do something.
Speaker 1: This is destroying all the work that's been done. This
Speaker 1: is like an absolute like this is a disaster, you know,
Speaker 1: despite those texts, later in the day we had ingram
Speaker 1: on there being like I'm pretty sure that we don't
Speaker 1: even know who those people even are. Then they might
Speaker 1: be Antifa, who famously look like boomers with substantial retirement
Speaker 1: plans and where ugg boots and you know, fuzzy may
Speaker 1: red white and blue knit hats. I can guarantee you
Speaker 1: anyone who calls himself Antifa doesn't have a roth ira
Speaker 1: a relaxed tough guys calls themself Antifa and dud because
Speaker 1: you the most in the most insufferable person who does.
Speaker 1: Though he's like, yeah, I dude, I'm Antifa, So yeah,
Speaker 1: because like fuck Trump and like all that ship. Dude,
Speaker 1: like fashions them like sucked up, like I'm antifa, Like
Speaker 1: I get like maybe you, yeah, you are diametrically a
Speaker 1: host of fascism in that sense, but you know you
Speaker 1: don't need to be going out there like that's like
Speaker 1: your set. Yeah. And anyone who is so anti something
Speaker 1: that they call themselves like, no one should. Everyone should
Speaker 1: be anti fascion. Yeah, but just like and like not
Speaker 1: to bring Q and on back up, but like anyone
Speaker 1: who's that anti pedophilia that it's on their mind that much,
Speaker 1: you gotta be like brok yeah, like like I agree
Speaker 1: pedophiles are fucking bad, like they are objectively it should
Speaker 1: never happen. We have to fight that. But if it doesn't,
Speaker 1: if it holds all your thoughts all day long, that's
Speaker 1: probably very bad for your brain. I agree so much
Speaker 1: that I go probably six days out of the week
Speaker 1: without thinking about it most of the time. It's just
Speaker 1: an ingrained philosophical value that I hold with. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't have to think about it, it's in my core. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't need to wear a T shirt that says um.
Speaker 1: If someone had a T shirt that's said, like, let's
Speaker 1: stop pedophilia, I'd be like what's making you promote like
Speaker 1: what's on your mind? Many, Yeah, I don't want to
Speaker 1: think about this show bito. Man, Like I'm actually so
Speaker 1: like against racism, you know, like it's like so bad,
Speaker 1: Like it's actually the worst thing ever, like just like
Speaker 1: against it like every time. So you're like, Okay, that's
Speaker 1: the personality you're trying on. But unlike those fine people,
Speaker 1: the people at Fox, you know, they continue to just
Speaker 1: carry water for the president and downplay the insurrection. And
Speaker 1: we're not even touching on the fact that the president's
Speaker 1: chief of staff is on a text relationship with hosts
Speaker 1: of the network that is propaganda for the right wing.
Speaker 1: Like we're not even addressing that. We're we're going one
Speaker 1: step past to be like, what the funk are these
Speaker 1: guys doing. They know it's wrong, and it's like it's
Speaker 1: even crazier that they all context ark Meados whenever they want.
Speaker 1: They can get him to say this, get him to
Speaker 1: say that, or he can say you need to say this.
Speaker 1: Uh hi, Mark Meadows here, make sure we, you know,
Speaker 1: explain that Portland is on fire so that white people
Speaker 1: in Long Island could be scared. The amount of people
Speaker 1: who have asked me about fucking like crimes in l
Speaker 1: A from my life that have no relation to Los Angeles.
Speaker 1: They shouldn't be on there, like there they've got people
Speaker 1: work Fox News, got people where my antles say, ship
Speaker 1: like hear what they're doing in Australia. I'm like, no,
Speaker 1: and why do you know? And why do you care?
Speaker 1: Get the funk out of there. Do you know what
Speaker 1: they're doing in your local township? Oh you don't know that,
Speaker 1: but you're aware that they're You think they're rounding up
Speaker 1: the unvaccinated in Australia and putting them in camps. I
Speaker 1: don't think that's happening. I'm sorry, I don't know, Sony said.
Speaker 1: But so Tuesday, you know, they had to basically put
Speaker 1: the full court press on trying to do some damage control,
Speaker 1: because yeah, those those texts made it clear. It's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: you guys knew how bad it was, you knew who
Speaker 1: was in control of it. Yet you went on the
Speaker 1: air and he said the exact opposite to spin it
Speaker 1: for your audience, because that's what you do. You lie.
Speaker 1: And this is all about optics and the worst possible way,
Speaker 1: so gaining and holding powers all that fucking matters. Yeah, absolutely.
Speaker 1: So the first thing, I just want to play Hannity's defense.
Speaker 1: He's He's got a few different ideas on like what's
Speaker 1: what's really going on here and what those texts actually said.
Speaker 1: It wasn't like I knew like it was bad. Like
Speaker 1: I'm just saying I don't know here. Let's just listen
Speaker 1: to him in his own words. In a weak attempt
Speaker 1: to smear yours truly and presumably I guess President Trump,
Speaker 1: Congresswoman Cheney presented one of my text messages from January
Speaker 1: six to Mark Meadows. Uh, surprise, surprise, surprise, I said
Speaker 1: to Mark Meadows the exact same thing I was saying
Speaker 1: live on the radio at that time and on TV
Speaker 1: that night on January six, and well beyond January six.
Speaker 1: And by the way, where is the outrage the media
Speaker 1: over my private text messages being released again publicly? We
Speaker 1: believe in privacy in this country. Apparently not. It's not
Speaker 1: my first rodeo, like the thousands of Hannity text messages
Speaker 1: released to So he's gonna go, I'm sorry, I have
Speaker 1: to have to cut you off there, Sean So so
Speaker 1: that he spun it into First of all, let me
Speaker 1: just lie and say and that's what I did on
Speaker 1: TV that night. You did not, Sean Hannity. You went
Speaker 1: out there and you were he said it was Antifa.
Speaker 1: You can watch you know, we can watch it again, Hannity.
Speaker 1: He who doesn't look, Yeah, he's he talks an audience
Speaker 1: who doesn't look or an audience who was watching man
Speaker 1: and we'll be like, yeah, he didn't say that. No
Speaker 1: he didn't. You know, he didn't shut up. Also, him
Speaker 1: bitching that his privacy was invaded by someone reading his
Speaker 1: text out loud, he does know that it was read
Speaker 1: aloud because it was subpoena evidence in the criminal case
Speaker 1: that you if you lose some rights to privacy. Unfortunately,
Speaker 1: due to our intense carceral state, you do lose some
Speaker 1: rights to privacy. Even rich white people have to deal
Speaker 1: with that ship and it's like, your text is not public.
Speaker 1: It was ready in the fucking cop What happened? What
Speaker 1: happened to our sense of privates? What happened? And he
Speaker 1: also knows that if it was something that he wanted to,
Speaker 1: you know, bash, that he would throw some private text
Speaker 1: messages up on the screen of the ship. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 1: if if that nigga will put my text messages up
Speaker 1: on the screen if like it would prove a butterfingers.
Speaker 1: You see, the Negroes in this country are some weird ship.
Speaker 1: We gotta we gotta, we can't let them vote. Now,
Speaker 1: We've got black people who don't even like chocolate. Now,
Speaker 1: this is what the Democratic Party is doing to people.
Speaker 1: You're like, just what the liberals want? This is what
Speaker 1: the liberals want. They want only butter fingers and raisins
Speaker 1: with vanilla. You know. Again, they've just been struggling with
Speaker 1: this because it was so clear he can't really speak
Speaker 1: to the material, you know, content of these texts. He
Speaker 1: has to completely pivot to what I've been a privacy,
Speaker 1: you know, because I'm used to this, because I've been
Speaker 1: you know, I remember I got caught up with Michael Cohen,
Speaker 1: who was also an investigation in some texts or leak.
Speaker 1: Then you know it's part of an investigation. He later
Speaker 1: says stuff like, you know these leaks because of like
Speaker 1: FOI requests, Those are Freedom of Information Act requests. Those
Speaker 1: aren't leaks. Those are people are uh, those are accessible
Speaker 1: to people through the Freedom of Information Act. Is not
Speaker 1: your privacy. Again, It's so wild how many like millionaires
Speaker 1: and people in power. Like the thing I always go
Speaker 1: back to, and this is a really random analogy, is
Speaker 1: as a Giants fan, Plexico Burris one time shot himself
Speaker 1: in the leg in a club and my dad said
Speaker 1: something to me. At the time, I was like, that's
Speaker 1: so crazy. My dad goes, at some point, you're rich
Speaker 1: enough to let someone else carry the gun, and you're like,
Speaker 1: that's a true and handed he could have a producer
Speaker 1: who's in touch with these people, but no, because he
Speaker 1: likes the ability to be on the text and that's
Speaker 1: where you're too close to the fucking fire. Dude. If
Speaker 1: you had a right hand person who did those texting
Speaker 1: for you, you'd be on top. You'd maybe still be
Speaker 1: considered an objective journalist. But now every story you do
Speaker 1: about Mark meadows Come should come into play that there's
Speaker 1: a major conflict of interest if you can text that person.
Speaker 1: But I mean, unfortunately for Sean, Hanny doesn't have the
Speaker 1: self awareness to realize he chedd ar bobbed himself those
Speaker 1: text messages coming out. You could have somebody else carried
Speaker 1: in for you, my man. But it is what it is.
Speaker 1: So the other thing is I haven't thought of jedd
Speaker 1: er Bob in a long I felt like that was
Speaker 1: the whole Like when Plexico shot himself, everybody was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: for all my old heads and anyway, so Sean Annity
Speaker 1: at cheddar Bob yourself. So the next thing that happened
Speaker 1: was he had Haraldo on, and sadly, Haraldo had a
Speaker 1: working set of eyes and a brain on January six,
Speaker 1: and he wasn't as like accepting because you know, let's
Speaker 1: ho what Horaldo does. He he likes to be. Sometimes
Speaker 1: they'll say the right thing. Sometimes it's a completely just
Speaker 1: most absurd, nonsensical thing. But this day Haraldo chose fucking chaos.
Speaker 1: And during this segment they were basically they had Dan
Speaker 1: Bonino on uh to basically talk about what about all
Speaker 1: the other riots that year? Why this one that they
Speaker 1: keep talking about? And Haraldos like, okay, well, let's sure,
Speaker 1: but let's talk about this specific one. For a very
Speaker 1: specific reason. This was a riot that was unleashed, insided,
Speaker 1: and inspired by the President of the United States, which
Speaker 1: targeted American democrats. And it didn't say no you can
Speaker 1: that targeted the president, no, no stop. The president said,
Speaker 1: peacefully patriotically marched the capital that's your opinion. I don't
Speaker 1: even want to go down that road. That's not the
Speaker 1: question tonight. The question is this corrupt committee. The question
Speaker 1: is why this riot and not five seventy four other rights.
Speaker 1: The question is I think the reason is, like, because
Speaker 1: of what Heraldo said, it was instigated, insighted and you know,
Speaker 1: ra rod On by the fucking president, That's why. And
Speaker 1: it was on a government properly, it was on like
Speaker 1: it wasn't like a window being broken at a Chase
Speaker 1: Bank on Fairfax, you know what I mean, Like this
Speaker 1: is like this is and that was And let's not
Speaker 1: even get into the motivations of both different quote unquote riots.
Speaker 1: The protests were stopped killing us. This was no our
Speaker 1: guy one like that. Those are two very different vibes,
Speaker 1: are two very different levels of justification in my book.
Speaker 1: And riots on one side were incited by the people
Speaker 1: who should have been protecting us because we were upset
Speaker 1: that they were killing us. And ryot's on this side
Speaker 1: were inside it by the people who should be protecting
Speaker 1: us and said like like, hey, right this way, right
Speaker 1: this way, folks, you want to oh you want to
Speaker 1: flick it up one time? Alrighty, there you go up.
Speaker 1: Please don't tag me in that though. Blue lives matter.
Speaker 1: So yeah, he you know, Dan bon Gino is saying,
Speaker 1: he's like, you're backstabbing the president. He's he's asking a
Speaker 1: very direct question. But you know you, all these motherfucker's
Speaker 1: don't have knives in their back from Trump the second
Speaker 1: Trump needs needs someone to fall on, like these guys
Speaker 1: are all gonna be fucking dead meat. Trump doesn't. He doesn't.
Speaker 1: He's already saying fuck Fox News as many times as
Speaker 1: he can't, like as soon as you, But he doesn't
Speaker 1: mean that he's right fuck us. Fuck yeah. I love Haraldo.
Speaker 1: He's like, that's not the question we're asking. The question
Speaker 1: we're asking is riots. It's like, no, not a question,
Speaker 1: Mr Hannity. And also I think Haraldo is correctly talking
Speaker 1: about the same thing. At least that's your opinion. I
Speaker 1: love that. It's like, that's your opinion, which is the
Speaker 1: loophole that all those motherfucker's use whenever they get called
Speaker 1: out on something. If if you're using the dude from
Speaker 1: the Big Lebowski defense to justify your nonsense, and like, well,
Speaker 1: that's just like your opinion, man, that's not an actual
Speaker 1: sure you may think that you might try to reduce
Speaker 1: his sort of observation as an opinion, but again, it's
Speaker 1: a hell of a drug to try and have to,
Speaker 1: you know, keep yourself in mental pretzels to be able
Speaker 1: to look at that ship on the TV and then
Speaker 1: be like, I think it's Antifa. Lor Ingram Sadly she
Speaker 1: didn't have his she didn't have as much of a
Speaker 1: she's a straight up line. It isn't as interesting. She
Speaker 1: was just like I never said any of that, and
Speaker 1: you're like, really, okay, did Laura. Yeah, it's weird. It's
Speaker 1: really weird. I mean, look at is base level. It's
Speaker 1: really fucking weird how much these motherfucker's came for Trump,
Speaker 1: like just at the basically take even take on the
Speaker 1: politics out of it, take on a bullshit out of it,
Speaker 1: like why like he don't even like y'all, He don't
Speaker 1: even like you. Because at the end of the day,
Speaker 1: they just like that the power that he has, the
Speaker 1: ability has to get everybody in step, you know, lock step,
Speaker 1: marching towards fascism and also dominance. Everyone at Fox News
Speaker 1: saw a huge increase in their popularity and like the
Speaker 1: last four to eight years, four to six years, whatever
Speaker 1: you want to call it, all based on fucking Trump,
Speaker 1: so that Trump is their money maker. And that's I
Speaker 1: not to be the anti capitalist. I don't have the teacher,
Speaker 1: but the fundamental problem with every boils down to anyone
Speaker 1: will do anything to squeeze an extra penny out of
Speaker 1: whatever there, whether it's leaving your employees in a warehouse
Speaker 1: when the tornado is coming at it, your employees pissing
Speaker 1: in water bottles, people dying in sweatshops, people fucking like uh,
Speaker 1: I will lie, I will do treason is propaganda for
Speaker 1: a president that is ruining this country. If my ratings
Speaker 1: go up one notch because my ratings go up and
Speaker 1: one not I will fight tooth and nail to stay
Speaker 1: in Senate or Congress because my stock portfolio crushes with
Speaker 1: all my slightly inside information I get like all this
Speaker 1: ship is all because everyone wants to make a dollar
Speaker 1: more just no no matter where whatever, And I'm including
Speaker 1: all my employers at the top. That person would cut
Speaker 1: my head off if their stock value went up point one.
Speaker 1: The head of turner would gladly cut my fucking head
Speaker 1: off for a centimeter of profits and like piss on
Speaker 1: you if you're on fire, yes exactly, and like that's
Speaker 1: what we all need to understand. Laura Ingram will do
Speaker 1: anything in her power to not lose her fucking day rate.
Speaker 1: Like that's what and that's just upsetting, and it is
Speaker 1: because without money it's very difficult to survive in America
Speaker 1: as well. Now when we're talking amounts of money, it's
Speaker 1: a different story, but I get it. You need every
Speaker 1: little bit of dollar you have because everyone knows the
Speaker 1: next day you can have a medical emergency that isn't free,
Speaker 1: or you can have like it's impossible to get a
Speaker 1: house because everything's expanded. Like the ship that's fucking with
Speaker 1: the little people is also making the big people worse.
Speaker 1: And then somehow they have the lack of awareness to
Speaker 1: be like, actually, every you have everything you need, Actually
Speaker 1: so you can you can kind of kick take your
Speaker 1: foot off. The gas of the is not that much
Speaker 1: more than five million, just like at that point, what
Speaker 1: to be honest, you think about it, every dollar you
Speaker 1: make over nine millions should just be taken away and
Speaker 1: given to someone who makes under fifty grand a year,
Speaker 1: every single like you, I think nine million dollars is
Speaker 1: plenty of money for anyone individual to have, Like your
Speaker 1: family is generationally wealthy, but every dollar over nine million
Speaker 1: should just get sent to somebody else. That should be
Speaker 1: the rule. Like you can't just sit there with a
Speaker 1: thousand ribs on your plate if the person next to
Speaker 1: you has no ribs. It's like you're not gonna eat
Speaker 1: off that. I want to taste the john I might.
Speaker 1: I want to taste the kind of barbecue sauce this
Speaker 1: one has and this one has. I've been collecting these
Speaker 1: ribs since fucking seventy eight, since before you were born, Junior,
Speaker 1: Tell me, and my kids will have these ribs despite
Speaker 1: no effort on their part to be a functioning member
Speaker 1: of ribs society. They're rotting. They're not even edible, these
Speaker 1: ribs that if you're waiting that long, like maybe someone
Speaker 1: else can you came, they can still they can still
Speaker 1: put them on the tongue. Yeah, I seen this, seen
Speaker 1: this whole thing a hundred times. I'm not gonna get played,
Speaker 1: but yeah, I mean, yeah, greed's a hell of a drug,
Speaker 1: and so is the ego. And yeah, what a better
Speaker 1: place for all of that to intersect than and on
Speaker 1: Capitol Hill and Washington, d C. Because you know, I
Speaker 1: think colloquially known as Hollywood for ugly people. Yeah, even
Speaker 1: in even on the fucking quote unquote good guys side,
Speaker 1: the people who care about allegedly care about their constituents.
Speaker 1: Of those motherfucker's are all just making money too. They're
Speaker 1: all in it for money. I'm so disheartened by everything
Speaker 1: that's happening in the Democrats. The right wing is terrifying
Speaker 1: and the left is disappointing. Yeah, they're like the Democrats
Speaker 1: are that person who like, you know, like you're like, bro,
Speaker 1: I would never call them up if I got into
Speaker 1: fight and I need to back up. Yeah, Like no,
Speaker 1: but look, yo, they were doing push ups and ship.
Speaker 1: You saw that video they were like doing like m
Speaker 1: m a ship. I'm like, I've seen them in a fight.
Speaker 1: They ran. They run every time. They talk a lot
Speaker 1: of ship, but they run every fucking time. And I'll
Speaker 1: have time for this ship because if it's going down,
Speaker 1: I need somebody's gonna go back to back like Batman
Speaker 1: and Robin, back to back, like Trippek and say Jack Baby,
Speaker 1: back to back like a little Chicago flavor. These days,
Speaker 1: these days, you know, Scotty's Scotty's a little he's a
Speaker 1: little Scotty. Ain't going back to back with Jordan no more. Now,
Speaker 1: no bears up for him. All right, let's take a
Speaker 1: break and we'll come back and we'll talk about capaganda.
Speaker 1: And we're back, and I just want to, you know,
Speaker 1: talk about since we're in the holiday season, it's good
Speaker 1: to take note of all the ways that the police
Speaker 1: try and you know, seed their positive stories through the
Speaker 1: media and maybe get a little bit of that year
Speaker 1: end goodwill butts. Typically there's just this one. It's like
Speaker 1: the most hack bit that police officers and police departments
Speaker 1: two at the end of the year, which is pretending
Speaker 1: to arrest the fucking Grinch. You've seen images like this
Speaker 1: fucking everywhere. There's always like there was this like image recently,
Speaker 1: like from this week coming from New Jersey about how
Speaker 1: they had to hey, they had to arrest the Grinch
Speaker 1: because he was quote disturbing the peace. Oh great, or
Speaker 1: in Texas they seized a grinch during a tree lighting
Speaker 1: ceremony because I don't know, he was had different colored skin.
Speaker 1: I don't I can't. Unfortunately, shot the grinch in the
Speaker 1: back when he was walking away with his hands up right. Uh.
Speaker 1: And then then then threw up and then threw up
Speaker 1: gang signs over his dead body, and then Pittsburgh. They
Speaker 1: also did a thing that they said there's a warrant
Speaker 1: out for the Grinch after he didn't appear for a
Speaker 1: sentencing date, and also all so, just because I know
Speaker 1: that was about a little heavy, let me dial it back, kids.
Speaker 1: They also alerted the kids, hey, kids, if you see
Speaker 1: the fucking Grinch, you know what, and he offers them candy, quote,
Speaker 1: take the candy and teach him a lesson. I'm sorry
Speaker 1: what the police are saying, take candy from a fucking
Speaker 1: creepy stranger as a weight. I don't look, I don't
Speaker 1: know what the I don't know what the point of
Speaker 1: that tip was. But they still said, hey, take the
Speaker 1: candy and turn them in. That's how you want to
Speaker 1: do it. I don't know how many kids y'all know,
Speaker 1: Like you know, we're all around the same age, so
Speaker 1: we actually grew up with the Grinch, like you know,
Speaker 1: we watched the Grinch cartoon, and then when we were
Speaker 1: teenagers or young adults, the movie came out and ship
Speaker 1: like that. I don't know how many kids y'all know. Now,
Speaker 1: these motherfucker's don't care about the Grinch. They don't like
Speaker 1: the movie is the cartoon? Now what don't don't they
Speaker 1: not the cartoon? They're coming home for a Christmas special
Speaker 1: every year anymore? Like is so like it's so outdated.
Speaker 1: I mean, I know the reacent cops are doing it
Speaker 1: because you know, they wanna position themselves as the good
Speaker 1: guys and we protect you and well protect the Christmas
Speaker 1: spear and we'll protect you until we kill you. Like
Speaker 1: I get what they're doing. All they gotta do is
Speaker 1: fucking hand out gifts to underprivileged kids. Just just do
Speaker 1: what this fucking fire department does. We don't need a
Speaker 1: fucking dumb little show of like like you know, like
Speaker 1: the military flyovers, like in honor of vets, we have
Speaker 1: eleven jets burning millions of dollars worth of fuel. It's like,
Speaker 1: take that money and give it to homeless abet fox.
Speaker 1: It's like like the fox. Here the fire department is
Speaker 1: helping parents put their car seats in their cars. The
Speaker 1: police they're beating the Grinch in the streets to help
Speaker 1: kids feel the green skin. Like God knows what kind
Speaker 1: of slurs they have for fun. I mean the fair Day,
Speaker 1: you know, what's actually funny is they actually used the
Speaker 1: word grinch like in police talk too. But again, this
Speaker 1: whole thing is like, it's not just these, it's every
Speaker 1: Like I'm just there's not a single local department who
Speaker 1: doesn't have some kind of fucking grinch fucking thing going on.
Speaker 1: And you know this whole I think pattern of trying
Speaker 1: to make cop work look really cool and fun and
Speaker 1: like adorable, even it's just like super insidious, especially because
Speaker 1: it's directed at kids. And then TikTok of a fucking
Speaker 1: cop who's got two domestic violence things on his record,
Speaker 1: dribbling back into the exactly exactly, oh he's planking. Yeah,
Speaker 1: well he fucking hit a woman at home. The other
Speaker 1: d's that's in his personal life as a cop. He
Speaker 1: did this, This TikTok is gonna make kids want to
Speaker 1: be cops. Did you see how sturdy he was getting
Speaker 1: to that pop smoke remix? Yeah, I think he knows
Speaker 1: a thing or two. Also, like, the funny thing about
Speaker 1: this too is eventually the grinch will comes the hero too,
Speaker 1: like the nigga like heat. Yeah, he did good at
Speaker 1: the end, he returned all the presence without the cops,
Speaker 1: so y'all arrest in The hero Man, y'all arrest in
Speaker 1: My My homie, the Grine. It feels it feels like
Speaker 1: correct for the police to be like, what he stole?
Speaker 1: It's like, well then he also no more information. He's great.
Speaker 1: Any stalls over the fire, you know, it's like wait, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: he's turned the corner. You know, rehab the major part
Speaker 1: of our quote unquote Christian system. His heart grew three sizes.
Speaker 1: Now we're gonna beat that ship back down to is
Speaker 1: it like to that point? It's like it started off
Speaker 1: and being like, look at this child who's different than
Speaker 1: everybody in town. Its fucking scare him off to the
Speaker 1: edge of town so he never comes back. It's like
Speaker 1: I believe it started off with you all being very
Speaker 1: not understanding of the Grinch when it was a baby.
Speaker 1: But hey, that's a whole other. That's a whole other.
Speaker 1: Hereative like to go along with this, like with kids, right,
Speaker 1: they they get these kids also in on like all
Speaker 1: this dumb stuff, like being like, hey, you know you
Speaker 1: can you can participate in you know, taking the Grinch down.
Speaker 1: They were even having like kids tackle the Grinch and
Speaker 1: pin him. So the cops could fucking handcuff him. One
Speaker 1: kid said, I thought it was cool because I got
Speaker 1: to tackle a grinch. This was like a kid who
Speaker 1: participated and like with his local police department. The cops
Speaker 1: are saying, the kiddos caught him and held him until
Speaker 1: we were able to get him in handcuffs today. Oh wow,
Speaker 1: the kiddos got him. So you know, this is basically
Speaker 1: like I was saying, Like you said, the term grinch,
Speaker 1: they actually use it. They have things like they'll set
Speaker 1: up things like a grinch patrol in like a local town,
Speaker 1: which is essentially saying, you know, wanting to beef up
Speaker 1: at presence in a residential area to sort of dissuade
Speaker 1: people from maybe doing any kind of a burglary or
Speaker 1: property crime or things like that. But even when you
Speaker 1: hear this sheriff describe like even what a fucking gross
Speaker 1: grinch would be, it's like this quote. These folks, a
Speaker 1: lot of them are drug addicts or have addictions, but
Speaker 1: they're still going to try and find a way to
Speaker 1: provide for their children. Oh my god, that's part of
Speaker 1: your description of the grine patrol is someone that's destitute
Speaker 1: and their only financial recourse is possibly like theft okay, okay,
Speaker 1: and the answer is not give that person some something. Yeah,
Speaker 1: arrest that like it's fucking it's fun. It's so it's
Speaker 1: so upsetting that the cop narrative is combative against It's
Speaker 1: always like I have to stop crime, not prevent crime.
Speaker 1: We have to come arrest someone after a crime. And
Speaker 1: it's like, yeah, it's not that this person can't afford
Speaker 1: to give things to their children or provide for their children,
Speaker 1: So let's give some stuff to their children so they
Speaker 1: don't have to steal. Is that Nah, we don't stop
Speaker 1: this motherfucker from trying to provide for their children no
Speaker 1: matter what, and let that child just go without? What
Speaker 1: about that child? What if the child? I don't know,
Speaker 1: it's not my problem. Their parent was a grade show, kay.
Speaker 1: And that's the same thing you see even reporting to
Speaker 1: like the media will even describe people as fucking grinches.
Speaker 1: He quote. It's like just random headlines you see with Grinch.
Speaker 1: Deputies arrest grinch who stole the vehicle in Highlands Ranch,
Speaker 1: uh police, real life Grinch goes on car wrecking spree
Speaker 1: and Cambridge. They just this is just like their way
Speaker 1: to dehumanize just people in general. Now, I get if
Speaker 1: people are sucking up people's ship or whatever and they're
Speaker 1: committing crimes, that's one thing. But like the Grinch nomenclature,
Speaker 1: vernacular ship to be like a couple of grines just surviving,
Speaker 1: but only in this month, where any other a Grinch
Speaker 1: who is had a bad drug attack because their life
Speaker 1: seems like it's a dead end because of every system
Speaker 1: has failed them, stole a car and the police were
Speaker 1: able to stop the Grinch. It's like, tell, give us
Speaker 1: the whole fucking story of the Grinch. The Grinch turned
Speaker 1: the Grinch because we kicked him out of the because
Speaker 1: they kicked him out of sucking Hohoville or whatever. Now,
Speaker 1: if we kick people out of society by making them
Speaker 1: live on the streets, we we're making I want to
Speaker 1: stop saying Grinch because the cops like it so much.
Speaker 1: But that's the origin story, Like that's how people end
Speaker 1: up with no other direction to go with, like like
Speaker 1: push them away, push them away, not help them, not
Speaker 1: extend to hand. And again that that goes back to
Speaker 1: the point of the whole you know, the actual book
Speaker 1: itself about the Grinch. Like I don't think most kids
Speaker 1: would know that there is a there is a redemption
Speaker 1: arc that doesn't involve police intervention. Like that is the
Speaker 1: moral of the story. The moral of the story isn't
Speaker 1: the Grinch is this terrible fucking person who wants to
Speaker 1: steal Christmas. The moral of the story is anybody can
Speaker 1: reform and start to love the things that we all like.
Speaker 1: That is the moral of the fucking story. Also, poor actor,
Speaker 1: the report, the actor who has to play the Grinch
Speaker 1: and all these names like my man, if somebody my
Speaker 1: day rate would be three million dollars to do that ship.
Speaker 1: You know, just up like the Grinch so these kids
Speaker 1: can tackle you and we can arrest you like it's
Speaker 1: the it's the rookie cop who tried to blow a
Speaker 1: whistle about the interior gangs. And they're like, guess what
Speaker 1: Brook You're you want to be? You're the grid this year? Yeah,
Speaker 1: the beat walking, the street bike cop and Grinch. Also
Speaker 1: the levels of the total pole at at the police station.
Speaker 1: And and this time we're actually gonna be showing kids
Speaker 1: how to use our police batons. Sot the PK sixteen
Speaker 1: inch baton the kids are going to be using on
Speaker 1: the Grin. So yeah, suit up, man next to keep
Speaker 1: your mouth shut. But yeah, so funk all that fun
Speaker 1: the copaganda and uh again baby, try and teach kids.
Speaker 1: So what the moral of the story is there? There
Speaker 1: there is a redemption arc rather than they called the
Speaker 1: FBI to beat the funk out of the Grinch and
Speaker 1: chase him out of who Phil? But hey that's for
Speaker 1: another time. Alright, Well, Gabriel, thanks so much man for
Speaker 1: stopping by. It's a pleasure and an honor to be
Speaker 1: able to talk that ship with you. Of course, man,

Speaker 1: first thing they did with speed Racer, and they're a
Speaker 1: collective of editors and producers that each take a chunk
