Speaker 1: I meant like some shady ship. Francesco. We're going to
Speaker 1: get to know you a little bit better in a moment. First,
Speaker 1: we're gonna tell our listeners. Oh boy, a couple of
Speaker 1: things we're talking about today. We're gonna talk about the
Speaker 1: radical in the White House, Joe Biden. He's gonna get
Speaker 1: things done with some loving stretches strategy. We're gonna talk
Speaker 1: about Don Jr's how he's what's on what's that site
Speaker 1: called cameo? Cameo? Right, he's on Cameo. I'm acting like
Speaker 1: I haven't already paid the money to get. Yeah, we're
Speaker 1: gonna talk about why the Second Amendment is a white
Speaker 1: supremacist tool. We're gonna talk about Naomi Osaka. We're gonna

Speaker 1: just not wearing a mask, all of that, plenty more.
Speaker 1: But first, Francesca, we like to ask eric guests, what
Speaker 1: is something from your search history that is revealing about
Speaker 1: who you are? Yeah? See we do this. People forget
Speaker 1: about that I didn't do. Yeah, but see this is
Speaker 1: this makes it more honest because you can't even prep
Speaker 1: You gotta just tell us what is actually in your
Speaker 1: search history? Okay, this is and I think I deleted,
Speaker 1: but I was just double checking that truffle butter actually
Speaker 1: means the thing as gross as I thought it meant,
Speaker 1: and as inappropriate and sexual and unpleasant. And then I
Speaker 1: was like, why did Nicki Minaj have to do a
Speaker 1: whole song about this, Like why you didn't have to
Speaker 1: go there? And I'm not going to get into a
Speaker 1: Nikki versus Cardi, but card team Cardi obviously, And I
Speaker 1: know some people think that they're different, but like you,
Speaker 1: it's um And so I was that I did the
Speaker 1: boomer thing, which is for sure a lot of us
Speaker 1: are like, what does this mean? Again? I thought I
Speaker 1: knew truffle butter. You know, it's just very like, what's
Speaker 1: truffle butter made of? Yeah, I water isn't so so yes,
Speaker 1: I did that. I literally just looked that up last night,
Speaker 1: a propos of nothing, just me. I don't know why
Speaker 1: I thought about it. Also, yes, it's a very dangerous
Speaker 1: practice to have anything remotely like trouffle butter happening. Please
Speaker 1: please read up. Please be safe out there. Wait why
Speaker 1: is it danger? All right? So I'm just gonna read off.
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna stumble headlong into this. As you wanted
Speaker 1: to know, oblivious, so off Urban Dictionary. It is a
Speaker 1: combination of fluids from having anal sex and intercourse, referencing
Speaker 1: to the color and texture of thick substance that forms
Speaker 1: after having both anal sex and the direct penetrate. Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm a very serious correspondent. I want everyone to know
Speaker 1: I've covered really important issues from fracking in Oklahoma to
Speaker 1: abortion rights in El Salvador and I am employable. Uh,
Speaker 1: but Israel is still in apartheid state. But also I
Speaker 1: do not look up things like truffle butter and Jack.
Speaker 1: Why did you have to read no? But you know no,
Speaker 1: Miles is correct, Like you should be very be careful
Speaker 1: because there's a lot of pH balance in you know
Speaker 1: that that cannot be disrupted and there's a there's a
Speaker 1: delicate ecosystem. Is what I'm saying going back and forth
Speaker 1: is the health danger? Ye? Okay, okay, Ten out of
Speaker 1: ten doctors would say do not you don't don't, don't
Speaker 1: not do that? Okay? What is what something you think
Speaker 1: is overrated? Francesca um urban fictionary is overrated. I'm embracing
Speaker 1: I am. I love that. I love that my career
Speaker 1: is overrated. Um overrated. Chris Hemsworth's body, Uh huh, you
Speaker 1: like why it's again too much? Too much thing, Like
Speaker 1: it's just he's huge, And he was like he he
Speaker 1: posted the instagram you know of him on the set
Speaker 1: of Thor and he was like kind of joking that
Speaker 1: he wasn't flexing, And I was like, I don't even
Speaker 1: know what that body would look like, not fleck like
Speaker 1: it doesn't. I don't even know if you can't not
Speaker 1: flex when you're that huge, And how do you get
Speaker 1: how do you move? How do you take a shower?
Speaker 1: How do you do anything? I believe in you know,
Speaker 1: a healthy work I mean workout regiment, you know, you know,
Speaker 1: get right with your body, get some whatever, do you know,
Speaker 1: do what you need to get some muscles. But like
Speaker 1: that's a little much, well too much. Four arms are
Speaker 1: the size of my calves. It's like alarming when you
Speaker 1: look at this photo. But this is what you're talking about,
Speaker 1: the one with him and Tyke Away. Yeah, he looks
Speaker 1: like he looks like Gaston from you know, Beauty and
Speaker 1: the Beast. He has straight up Disney proportions, which is
Speaker 1: a little okay cool. Um. I hope that he's got
Speaker 1: non consensual Disney proportions that that, but that we've god combo.
Speaker 1: I've always thought that like Arnold Schwarzenegger in the eighties,
Speaker 1: Sylvester Stallone like those, and this Chris Hemsworth built like
Speaker 1: it's more for the guys than it is for Like
Speaker 1: it's like dudes who don't want to admit that they
Speaker 1: like looking at that, but they're like it's very much
Speaker 1: for men for sure. Yeah, I for men to not
Speaker 1: want to go to the gym ever again. People people
Speaker 1: are looking at them, they're like, oh man, I gotta
Speaker 1: work out. At what point could you even look like that?
Speaker 1: You know, you know how much work it would take.
Speaker 1: Are you fighting fanos later at the fucking barbecue? Why
Speaker 1: do you? Why do you need to get that size?
Speaker 1: But hey man, I love seeing those videos too where
Speaker 1: people funk with people with muscles that big because they
Speaker 1: can't reach certain spots in their back because of their
Speaker 1: muscle mass. So like they'll do this thing, or they'll
Speaker 1: put like a post it that says some ship and
Speaker 1: they're like, yeah, to be completely defeated by a kick
Speaker 1: mason right, And you're like, yes, you see, you're not
Speaker 1: flexibly too massive, and you do prefer the beasts body.
Speaker 1: That's that's more in the beasts, the for beauty and
Speaker 1: the beast. You're talking a yeah yeah. I was just
Speaker 1: wondering if it's going to mean yeah, yeah beast. When
Speaker 1: he he became a human, it was like the first
Speaker 1: time I felt like feelings as a as a thirteen
Speaker 1: year old, I was like, oh my god, he's really hot,
Speaker 1: Like you know, no, other Prince really did it for me,
Speaker 1: but he was just like damn, like his body gets
Speaker 1: like carried all limp because he's just like he's all
Speaker 1: tired because he's about to die. Anyway, I love the Beast.
Speaker 1: I don't know what the I am post beast body.
Speaker 1: I don't need, you know, just just a little chisel.
Speaker 1: You don't need to be huge. I don't really get
Speaker 1: what you do with all that muscle mass other than
Speaker 1: lift other weights, Like do you just is that your
Speaker 1: if your life is just lifting heavier and heavier things
Speaker 1: and that's your job. I get I guess I get it,
Speaker 1: but just on a day to day level, that feels
Speaker 1: like too much and unnecessary. Yeah. I was always a
Speaker 1: fan of the Ron Perlman Beast right then that that
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that poster so much Main just like
Speaker 1: eighties Main. Yeah, it looks like he was like a
Speaker 1: roadie for Poison. Like the way the hair is like
Speaker 1: sort of you know, feathered and tees. It's very hair metal.
Speaker 1: He's always in the front row like, yeah, you guys,
Speaker 1: you know our groupie. Yeah, Beasts, he's really chill. Every
Speaker 1: hair metal band should have a groupie named Beast, for sure.
Speaker 1: I remember when Tyson came out of prison and like
Speaker 1: had the second act of his career and people were like,
Speaker 1: he's actually two jacked, like he lifted too many weights
Speaker 1: in prison, and like it's not good for his boxing career.
Speaker 1: My brain has gone to that multiple times as a reason,
Speaker 1: like I don't need to work out. Yeah, you don't
Speaker 1: want to get too big. I wouldn't exactly, it's a
Speaker 1: perfect excuse. I don't want to scare anybody. You can't
Speaker 1: Kevin Durant can't put on all that weight. It's gonna
Speaker 1: suck his gangs long and slim. It would suck my
Speaker 1: game up of sitting on the couch exactly. It seems uncomfortable.
Speaker 1: What is something you think is under did Hot in
Speaker 1: sower soup is underrated? It? I just got really into
Speaker 1: remembering how good hot and sour soup was, and then
Speaker 1: I made finally tried to make some last night, which
Speaker 1: was really good. It was complicated and all this, but
Speaker 1: it's always seen as like it's like a appetizer or
Speaker 1: side or whatever, and or like it's free with the
Speaker 1: with the lunch menu, the hot and sour soup, But
Speaker 1: it's so fucking good. Love and I like vegetarian hot
Speaker 1: and so our soup, but just like the bamboo shoots
Speaker 1: and the tofu and it's just so good on top
Speaker 1: finish it off. How where does the viscosity come from
Speaker 1: when you make it? It's definitely corn's uh meal, corn
Speaker 1: starch kind of make a little slurry type thing. First.
Speaker 1: I didn't do it for this one didn't call for it.
Speaker 1: I think it was it was out of like a
Speaker 1: you know, modern cookbook or whatever, but it definitely felt
Speaker 1: I was like, man, I need the gooey, like, where's
Speaker 1: the but it was the flavor was there, the labor
Speaker 1: was very much there. I think I order it whenever
Speaker 1: it's on a menu. That's just how our roll like.
Speaker 1: It's something it's a flavor that if it's available to me,
Speaker 1: I want to engage in. But there's nothing worse than
Speaker 1: getting some whack ass hot and sour soup where like
Speaker 1: it was phoned in it's not sour enough. I feel
Speaker 1: like that happens a lot where it's not a vinegar,
Speaker 1: because that's giving. Yeah, it's the vinegar, and they put
Speaker 1: lime juice in it also, and apparently tamarind, which I
Speaker 1: couldn't find, but it was still really good. Yeah, like
Speaker 1: there's no tofu in it. It's just kind of slop
Speaker 1: and you're like, this is Whispy's this is the bottom
Speaker 1: of the barrel. But yeah, everyone, yeah we should. It's
Speaker 1: just very good. That's a very random one. But yeah
Speaker 1: it's underrated and you made your own and it was successful.
Speaker 1: It was good. But I don't ever check how long
Speaker 1: recipes are gonna take, so we ate it like eleven o'clock.
Speaker 1: I am the world's slowest cook. You just like triple
Speaker 1: any recipe time, and yeah, that's very adorable. You should
Speaker 1: be a sux chef. My wife is like, oh, you're
Speaker 1: gonna tonight, Okay, great, you're I'll order. Yeah. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: just she she knows she's not gonna eat during normal
Speaker 1: waking hours. But I tend to sometimes overestimate my ability
Speaker 1: to pull off the recipe and like the time that
Speaker 1: it says, like in the things like yeah I should
Speaker 1: take about two hours, I'm like, okay, and then I'm
Speaker 1: to find myself being like, all right, so dinner is
Speaker 1: gonna be in about forty five minutes, and I'm saying
Speaker 1: that at but yeah, I just would I don't read well,
Speaker 1: I'm the person that's like, uh, it's like if tech support.
Speaker 1: I'll read something and I'm like I got this, and
Speaker 1: then I'm like, I don't got this. And when I
Speaker 1: watch the YouTube video, can't watch the YouTube video. I'm
Speaker 1: two board, Like I'm impatient. So I just skipped the
Speaker 1: part of the recipe that's like let it simmer for
Speaker 1: forty five minutes. You know, I just don't like I
Speaker 1: have the ingredients, but no time anyhow, right right, yeah,
Speaker 1: speed it up. All right, let's take a quick break
Speaker 1: and we will be right back. And we're back, and uh,
Speaker 1: let's talk about Joe Biden. He is going to get
Speaker 1: things done with this whole obstructionist Joe mansion, Kristen's Cinema
Speaker 1: arm of his own wing or of his own party. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's he's got a plan. I don't know who these
Speaker 1: people are or what version of America they're rooting for,
Speaker 1: because they don't want fifteen dollar minimum ways, they don't
Speaker 1: like most policies that benefit like anybody except their donors.
Speaker 1: Kursen Cinema was like shell skip Town when they were
Speaker 1: voting on the forming of the January six Commission, and
Speaker 1: I was like, I had a family thing to go
Speaker 1: to and you're like, oh, okay, what what are we doing? Now?
Speaker 1: We're gonna let these two people continue the minority rule
Speaker 1: that's just blocking everything in the Senate. So again, I
Speaker 1: just read this headline. It says Biden uses new strategy
Speaker 1: to convince and moderate Dems. And I was like, okay,
Speaker 1: I wonder what kind of pressure we're talking? What's going
Speaker 1: on here? This is apparently what he did. Put a
Speaker 1: statement out that just said this, and I I think he
Speaker 1: tweeted this out in the third person, which was quote,
Speaker 1: Biden only has a majority of effectively four votes in
Speaker 1: the House and the tie the Senate with two members
Speaker 1: of the Senate who voted more with my Republican friends.
Speaker 1: Hold on, Biden, why are you why are you switching
Speaker 1: it up to first person? Then? Okay, whatever, I mean
Speaker 1: that came from his account, not that's why he said,
Speaker 1: my Republican friends, anyway, how do you open PDF? But
Speaker 1: his whole thing is, you know, the filibuster reform could
Speaker 1: go a long way, you know, in situations like this
Speaker 1: when you're not just saying, hey, can you get to
Speaker 1: two thirds? Can you can you hit that number? Or no?
Speaker 1: Because then we can just let this small group of
Speaker 1: Republicans just completely stall everything out from voting rights to
Speaker 1: any anything on Biden's agenda. And so I'm just really
Speaker 1: curious what he thinks he's gonna achieve with this new
Speaker 1: tactic of essentially just going like, guys, come on, when
Speaker 1: the stakes couldn't be fucking higher, when everyone's like, you know,
Speaker 1: if you funck this up, like, chances are you're gonna
Speaker 1: lose everything in the mid terms if you don't come
Speaker 1: with real results, because the people who held their noses
Speaker 1: and voted for you were expecting it, you know, at
Speaker 1: least maybe a modicum of the things that you said
Speaker 1: you do to you know, come to fruition. And now
Speaker 1: just sort of like, I don't know, man, fucking legal
Speaker 1: weed and d C. I don't know if I'm for
Speaker 1: that anymore. Jack, And You're like, what the fool the
Speaker 1: fun what are you doing? And so, yes, we're finding
Speaker 1: ourselves in a very frustrated position where now Kirsten Cinema
Speaker 1: is coming out and saying the filibuster quote protects the
Speaker 1: democracy of our nation and is meant to create comedy
Speaker 1: and encourage committee, encourage and encourage senators from both parties
Speaker 1: to work together to those who say that we must
Speaker 1: make a choice between the filibuster and X, I say
Speaker 1: this is a false choice. First of all, the tool
Speaker 1: is not to protect democracy. Have you read any of
Speaker 1: the cool fucking BuzzFeed or Vox, any fucking articles it's
Speaker 1: like the buster. Yeah, how racist is the filibuster? But
Speaker 1: I guess you know, go off, Yeah, I love the
Speaker 1: idea that the filibuster is fine. It just we need
Speaker 1: to be better. It's like the idea that like, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: like the look, the justice system in this country is fine,
Speaker 1: all right, Yes, it's designed to marginalize poor people and
Speaker 1: black people. But just make sure that you're not poor
Speaker 1: or black. Just you. Yeah, no, no, very simple. You
Speaker 1: alter your behavior, slash skin color, and uh you know,
Speaker 1: everything will be hunky dory with you. I don't need
Speaker 1: to reform anything. The old guns don't kill people. I
Speaker 1: kill people absolutely, philosophy absolutely no. And and the real thing,
Speaker 1: I mean, the Senate. This is when you realize just
Speaker 1: how fuck the Senate is. The Senate is the most
Speaker 1: undemocratic body in this country. It is not representative, of course,
Speaker 1: and that it can get like undone by this bullshit
Speaker 1: old rule and held up by two pp pole who
Speaker 1: do not represent the majority of the country. That like,
Speaker 1: you've got Raphael Warnock in their elected you know, trying
Speaker 1: to make good for Georgians and like pass something like
Speaker 1: HR one the in the Voting Rights Act or um
Speaker 1: whatever it is, the For the People Act. Yeah, And
Speaker 1: meanwhile in his own state, they're like passing all these
Speaker 1: rollbacks to voting rights. I mean, and this is this
Speaker 1: is that like bind that is total b s. And
Speaker 1: so I'm happy that Biden is at least saying naming
Speaker 1: He's not naming people by name, but he's kind of
Speaker 1: naming mansion in cinema. But it also is a sense
Speaker 1: of it's from a place of powerlessness when I think
Speaker 1: he does have more power than that. He absolutely does, um,
Speaker 1: whether it's campaigning, whether it's in those states, whether it's
Speaker 1: executive orders. I mean, come on, just there is an
Speaker 1: argument to be made to just go forth with something
Speaker 1: like the For the People Act and then fight it
Speaker 1: in the court. Are we gonna have courts standing on
Speaker 1: the side of voter suppression. I don't know, Like maybe not,
Speaker 1: Maybe the courts will actually be better than the Senator
Speaker 1: is at this point. God, you can only it's it's
Speaker 1: it's also really difficult to fathom, right, like when you
Speaker 1: see all the states enacting all this aggressive voter suppression
Speaker 1: that they can't even see like if even if they
Speaker 1: gave a ship about partisan politics, like you're gonna let
Speaker 1: them play like this, like you're cool with that, Like
Speaker 1: what what version of reality are you operating? When you're
Speaker 1: just like, yeah, that's fine if you know one can vote.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't, I don't care, Like is that
Speaker 1: is that really what your worldview is? Because that's what
Speaker 1: it seems like. And then when you see that kind
Speaker 1: of whatever cynicism or nihilism or whatever these people are
Speaker 1: going through, or just the fact that they don't care
Speaker 1: because they just want to be the most famous person
Speaker 1: in Arizona and West Virginia, respectively, that it's just like
Speaker 1: what I could do something, or I can just fucking
Speaker 1: I don't know, just say what I need to get
Speaker 1: some more corporate donations and stay on this another six years.
Speaker 1: All right, Let's talk about where the Trump family and
Speaker 1: the Trump Org are at the moment, a k A cameo.
Speaker 1: They're on cameo saying I'll read whatever you want me
Speaker 1: to four or yeah, I feel like, that's a lot
Speaker 1: of cameos to pay off the millions in legal fees
Speaker 1: that they are probably incurring a lot of birthdays. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's what I said that even on Tucker Carlson. Do
Speaker 1: you remember in Arrested Development when Carl Weathers showed up
Speaker 1: and there's that fight at the bar and they cut
Speaker 1: to like a new sequence and Carl Weathers is clearly
Speaker 1: like a con man type guy and he's like, Yo,
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm looking at fifty dollars in legal expenses
Speaker 1: and he holds up like an aluminum foil to go
Speaker 1: swan of food and it's like, you're just like, this
Speaker 1: guy is just a con artist. This is the way
Speaker 1: Don Junior one on Tucker Carlson. He was like, we're
Speaker 1: looking ahead millions in legal fees. I mean, come on, Tucker,
Speaker 1: it's like we're being prosecuted legally or something. Yeah, So
Speaker 1: cut to our man on cameo looking all kinds of unhealthy.
Speaker 1: I'll leave it there and I'll feel with everything you
Speaker 1: could hope for in a greeting from Don junr has
Speaker 1: bad improv negging, lib slander, taking shots at CNN ages
Speaker 1: um like I'm not it almost feels like a Stefan
Speaker 1: sketch because this has everything and I'm going to play
Speaker 1: one of them where uh, you know, try to keep
Speaker 1: up with wherever this is headed, Peter, this is Donald
Speaker 1: Trump Jr. I'm told that you're turning older than dirt,
Speaker 1: and I'm not that sorry about that because I'm also
Speaker 1: told that you're a serious lib. Fortunately for you, at
Speaker 1: least you have a family that has the sense to
Speaker 1: not be a lib and that they're full of Trump supporters,
Speaker 1: so that's pretty awesome. I've also heard about some of
Speaker 1: your fetishes, so you may be as sick as some
Speaker 1: of the people in the Biden family. That's just me.
Speaker 1: Who am I to judge? But I hope you have
Speaker 1: a good birthday regardless, and I hope your family rides
Speaker 1: you like sea biscuit, have a good one. Man. Uh huh.
Speaker 1: He's got that puffy look of like either a body
Speaker 1: that's been floating face down in a pool of water
Speaker 1: and has discovered like a week later, or somebody who's
Speaker 1: got a three day bloat. He's definitely or a cocaine bender.
Speaker 1: But you know, we alleged who knows if they he
Speaker 1: has that kind of money, if he's out here begging
Speaker 1: for five It's something else to see. Again, I really
Speaker 1: hope this is a true indication of their financial desperation
Speaker 1: and not just like him being like fucking man, like,
Speaker 1: I just need money. If I can just create some
Speaker 1: extra play money for my hunting trips, I'll just do
Speaker 1: it here or whatever. But it's those those pauses, even
Speaker 1: he's like, so, um, your your families are It's just
Speaker 1: there's there's a there's a just a quality to it
Speaker 1: that I'm I'm quite enjoying. No, they absolutely need money.
Speaker 1: He's wearing a Trump like hotel shirt that it's all
Speaker 1: that's left is just the boxes and boxes of lime
Speaker 1: green um Polo shirts that no one's gonna buy. And yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean they're probably hauling stuff away and the on
Speaker 1: the like on the other side of the camera. I
Speaker 1: love this. I love the idea that this happening. I
Speaker 1: want now, I want us to pull resources into a cameo. Obviously,
Speaker 1: nothing that he said is his own, like our his
Speaker 1: own words, like riding you like sea biscuit. That was
Speaker 1: clearly something they told him to say. You could get
Speaker 1: him to say anything, but that was like an incest
Speaker 1: thing wasn't it. He was like, you're into weird fetishes,
Speaker 1: and I hope your family rides you like see I
Speaker 1: think they're saying like giving him a part time Oh okay,
Speaker 1: I think it's incest because you know, my dad wants
Speaker 1: to ride Ivanka like right see daughter, right? Yeah, But
Speaker 1: it does seem like they he'll he'll say anything. It's
Speaker 1: good to see that his his career is in such
Speaker 1: a good place because think about the other things you
Speaker 1: could do for five do you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Is there I mean, is there a a clothing deal,
Speaker 1: a podcast deal, a book deal? Like what? There's so
Speaker 1: many other things you could do to get that money,
Speaker 1: and that's not there. Like this is not really a
Speaker 1: way to connect to people either. You know it's not.
Speaker 1: But maybe it's also like, oh I am a celebrity.
Speaker 1: That's the other way of thinking about it is like
Speaker 1: you know, you think you're a celebrity. But like even
Speaker 1: I was looking into not to be back to sex
Speaker 1: in the City, but I was looking at like how
Speaker 1: much Christopher No charges? He's big? Mr five thousand dollars
Speaker 1: see knows is worth? Knows is worth? Ice cube? Whoa?
Speaker 1: You know, some people are swinging for the fences. Carrie
Speaker 1: Underwood charges a thousand and for someone who like a
Speaker 1: family that is so griffty like them. I'm surprised they're
Speaker 1: not going for that level because they're so shameless in
Speaker 1: you know, just builking their supporters for dollars that I'm
Speaker 1: surprised it wasn't like, yeah, man, this ship is like
Speaker 1: two grand. But I maybe because the people who already
Speaker 1: donate to them at that level have already got some
Speaker 1: form of a cameo for being like, hey, thanks for
Speaker 1: being a patriot and donating all that money. You know
Speaker 1: that they don't even they're not they're not gonna come
Speaker 1: back for this. They're in litigation right now. Dude. They
Speaker 1: didn't They didn't get a photo with him. They got
Speaker 1: like maybe a cardboard cut out and like a thank
Speaker 1: you email and then another email and then yeah, donated
Speaker 1: five times more than they wanted to because they didn't
Speaker 1: un check the proper boxes, and so yeah, I guess,
Speaker 1: uh cameo. Folks don't know about that. So yeah, it's
Speaker 1: yeah again, I'm I'm loving the desperation. I hope that
Speaker 1: now we're slowly speaking to see that translate into like
Speaker 1: outcomes and repercussions judicially, um so waiting for that shoe.
Speaker 1: He uh is also like turning into Jerry Folwell Jr.
Speaker 1: Like they are becoming the same person, Like don't they
Speaker 1: don't they look identical now, which is a weird like
Speaker 1: person for him to hold up as like his life
Speaker 1: goals like a disgraced son of a legend dairy person.
Speaker 1: He's like, yeah, that disgraced from a disgraced person of
Speaker 1: a disgraced Yeah, disgraced the legend. That makes sense. It
Speaker 1: does feel like he's also doing his a dad impression. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he does do his dad with like a hand thing,
Speaker 1: which I'm sure he practices for hours in the mirror
Speaker 1: every morning. He's like, I can't get that. That just
Speaker 1: slight forward lean right that My dad nails, you know,
Speaker 1: his intonation, and that just like his the way he
Speaker 1: speaks just feels trump more trumpy than usual. He's usually
Speaker 1: kind of like I'm just here and I'm gonna, you know,
Speaker 1: riff on, Mr potato Head, and I'm gonna bring jokes
Speaker 1: that someone wrote for me, and you know, and that's
Speaker 1: like him normally, but this felt much more like you're
Speaker 1: a great guy, blah, blah blah. Trump will be on cameo.
Speaker 1: Mark my words, Mark my words. It is only a
Speaker 1: matter of time. It'll be like seven thousand and ten
Speaker 1: thousand dollars, maybe not even, but he'll be there. That
Speaker 1: will That's when we know, right, we're like, oh, we're there,
Speaker 1: We're there. Everyone's doing it. So it's bad. Everyone's gotta
Speaker 1: be there. Everyone's gonna be there. I mean yeah, because
Speaker 1: I mean you look at well because the other thing
Speaker 1: that was interesting is that this conversation about the money
Speaker 1: desperation came up in relation to the social media stuff
Speaker 1: and like how well the blog wasn't doing and whether
Speaker 1: or not he's actually going to try something that will work,
Speaker 1: and a lot of this the reporting was that he
Speaker 1: didn't want to lend his name to something that already existed.
Speaker 1: But they and like they said, he had been turning
Speaker 1: down offers, like big offers from like these conservative social
Speaker 1: media platforms that really wanted Trump to be like their
Speaker 1: marquee signing. And but the sort of reporting sort of
Speaker 1: ended with like, but that could be changing as their
Speaker 1: financial situation becomes more strained, and I'm like, oh, fuck,
Speaker 1: just give me like some numbers here, Like I would
Speaker 1: love to see an infograph of what we're talking here,
Speaker 1: like what what the bills look like every day? Who
Speaker 1: owes money? Because and then there's a ton of people
Speaker 1: who are have been in orbit of them, who are
Speaker 1: now in their own legal trouble and they're like, yo,
Speaker 1: I need you to like help me too, because I'm
Speaker 1: being investigated for a ride and with the ship so
Speaker 1: or should I flip? Yeah, imagine the boot camp where
Speaker 1: his dad who hates him, where Donald Trump Junior's dad
Speaker 1: is trying to like turn him into a viable like
Speaker 1: political successor to him, because that that has been like
Speaker 1: rumored that like Donald Trump Jr. Was going to be
Speaker 1: the second coming. But I I can just imagine like
Speaker 1: Donald Trump like working with him on his hand gestures
Speaker 1: to try to make him into like a clone of himself,
Speaker 1: but he hates him so much and also probably like
Speaker 1: you know, is such a narcissist and like hate you know,
Speaker 1: secretly hates himself. So it just seems like the worst
Speaker 1: toxic environment that I wouldn't wish on my own worst enemies,
Speaker 1: but I would definitely wish on them. Yeah, that's cocaine
Speaker 1: face also kind of looks like I've been crying all night,
Speaker 1: you know, And I don't doubt that the Don Jump Jr.
Speaker 1: Has done that. And no, it is very much like
Speaker 1: if he were ever groomed to be to run for president,
Speaker 1: Trump would be waiting in the wings and at the
Speaker 1: very last moment he'd be like Nana, no, no, no,
Speaker 1: I'm reading this comes out and he's like, I'm running again.
Speaker 1: Like that is the level of levolence and evil and
Speaker 1: also just like or just yeah, that's the kind of
Speaker 1: daddy is and he will do that. There's I don't
Speaker 1: think he's grooming anybody to be his successor. I am
Speaker 1: if if this family doesn't fail upwards, because it's hard
Speaker 1: to know how you can fail even farther up than
Speaker 1: the presidency, right, but I'm still like, man, if they
Speaker 1: actually don't are if they are not able to seal
Speaker 1: another deal that isn't the White House, I will be
Speaker 1: just floored. I will be It would be like the
Speaker 1: first time a like wealthy white elitist wasn't able to
Speaker 1: fail up And you know, oh, it'll be like NBC, which,
Speaker 1: by the way, you should give me another job. But
Speaker 1: like they will be there to catch the Trumps at
Speaker 1: some point, like someone will still be there to catch
Speaker 1: them if they can't. I think, you know that's it's
Speaker 1: a I don't envy that position. We're like, funk, what
Speaker 1: do we do? Weake? They'll take this shitty deal and
Speaker 1: we'll make so much mother fucking desperate Like they're gonna
Speaker 1: look dumb as fuck, and the ad it's it's gonna,
Speaker 1: it's gonna. I don't know what to say, but we
Speaker 1: said black lives matter, but like, oh god, yeah, but
Speaker 1: you know what, being in the black matters too, because
Speaker 1: this is a capitalist corporation, baby something, What then are
Speaker 1: we gonna do? It's yeah, it's a fucking wild ride
Speaker 1: for them, But yeah, I think when we see Trump
Speaker 1: on there, it'll be time to have like parties were like,
Speaker 1: oh we're there, We're there, daddy's out here. But to
Speaker 1: your point of like him being at the last minute
Speaker 1: tapping himself in would just be hilarious where he's like,
Speaker 1: I'm like Paul Pierce, y'all thought I was done, that
Speaker 1: came out of the locker room ready to fuck y
Speaker 1: all up here. I am. It's fully his plan is
Speaker 1: to my version of this is that like he's not
Speaker 1: grooming Avanka because like she would actually be a valid,
Speaker 1: like a viable candidate. So he's grooming like his fail
Speaker 1: son who he then will uh, you know, torpedo and upstate.
Speaker 1: He's like, so you can't do anything right, so I
Speaker 1: have to do it myself. Should be more like your sister, Bly.
Speaker 1: I like how your Trump is Alec Baldwin doing Trump.
Speaker 1: It's it's it's more like just of energy than I think.
Speaker 1: Over the years, it's just turned into a sad energy
Speaker 1: and then occasionally just becomes very hip hop, like definitely
Speaker 1: someone from Yonkers who grow up with DMX. All right,
Speaker 1: let's talk about this new book it's called The Second
Speaker 1: Race and Guns and a Fairly Unequal America. That really
Speaker 1: kind of crystallized the conversation around the Second Amendment for
Speaker 1: me in a way that I hadn't like fully consciously
Speaker 1: embraced because I feel like the way the mainstream media
Speaker 1: treats it, it's like Second Amendment conversation, the gun rights
Speaker 1: advocate conversation. It's just like treated as a coincidence that
Speaker 1: those people tend to also be the people who get
Speaker 1: furious when you suggest something as simple as black lives matter.
Speaker 1: But it's like, yeah, they're just like on the same spectrum,
Speaker 1: but they're not necessarily like fully connected to one another.
Speaker 1: And this new book by historian Carol Anderson looks at
Speaker 1: both the history of the Second Amendment, like when it
Speaker 1: was first formed and why it was first formed, but
Speaker 1: also just sort of the present moment and the the
Speaker 1: big kind of present tense news story that she looks
Speaker 1: at is Filando Castile, who was following the n r
Speaker 1: A guidelines for how to inform an officer you are
Speaker 1: legally carrying a gun like to the t like it's
Speaker 1: there's a handbook where they tell you how to do
Speaker 1: this in the n r A. He did that and
Speaker 1: was shot and killed by the cop following the letter
Speaker 1: of the law, and he was killed for it. And
Speaker 1: this was the perfect opportunity for an organization that is
Speaker 1: so horny for conflict and to be like victimized, to
Speaker 1: create a martyr who they could get behind. And they
Speaker 1: were completely silent. They wanted no part of backing Philando Castile. Meanwhile,
Speaker 1: you know, in the nineties the Branch Davidians were raided
Speaker 1: by federal agents, and you know members of that cult
Speaker 1: murdered federal agents. The n r A back to them,
Speaker 1: you know the Ruby Ridge saying, um militia movements saying
Speaker 1: they back people who murder federal agents when they are white.
Speaker 1: And her argument is that this is not an accident.
Speaker 1: The Second Amendment from the start was designed to arm
Speaker 1: white people against potential slave uprisings. And and you know,
Speaker 1: when they were writing the amendments, the Southern States didn't
Speaker 1: think that the federal government would help them fight off
Speaker 1: a slave revolt with the federal army. And so that's
Speaker 1: why they created, at least partially why they created this
Speaker 1: Second Amendment that has the everybody should have guns and
Speaker 1: everybody should be able to form a militia, so that
Speaker 1: they basically had the backing of the federal government to
Speaker 1: form uh their own military. Um. And that was like
Speaker 1: James Madison and all the Virginians and shipped. But then
Speaker 1: you know they obviously heavily implied in that is that
Speaker 1: it's only it only applies to white people. Um. And
Speaker 1: throughout the history of the country, white armed rebellion has
Speaker 1: been treated with a slap on the wrist like the
Speaker 1: Whiskey rebellion, while black armed rebellion or self defense has
Speaker 1: been treated with terror and state sanctioned murder. Or dropping
Speaker 1: bombs on the whole neighborhood. Yeah, that's she didn't talk
Speaker 1: about this in the interview that I listened to, but
Speaker 1: the details of the Tulsa race mask her. The entire
Speaker 1: thing kicked off when black residents of Tulsa showed up
Speaker 1: at a prison with guns to protect a teenager from
Speaker 1: a lynch mob, and a shot was fired. Nobody knows
Speaker 1: by who, but the very idea of a black person
Speaker 1: firing a shot stirred the mob to the organized and
Speaker 1: systematic and genocidal violence that they enacted like the next morning.
Speaker 1: It's so interesting because, like you know, Jim Crow was
Speaker 1: established soon after the end of the Civil War, I mean,
Speaker 1: the idea of segregation in a two tiered system, you know,
Speaker 1: the failed reconstruction and all that. Then we have a
Speaker 1: hundred more years of Jim Crow. And you wonder why, like,
Speaker 1: like our country is so racist, why didn't they just
Speaker 1: amend the Second Amendment, Like you would expect them to
Speaker 1: either rein in or amend or change the Second Amendment
Speaker 1: or just eliminate it altogether, because oh my god, what
Speaker 1: if black people got weapons, you know, just to cover
Speaker 1: their asses. But instead it was like now, they'll just
Speaker 1: let everyone fight one another, and we're not going to
Speaker 1: stop white mobs and everyone can defend themselves except for
Speaker 1: if you're black. This this book sounds amazing, and I'm
Speaker 1: sure she goes into the Black Panthers and of course, yeah, yeah, totally,
Speaker 1: she goes deep into that and how their whole stated
Speaker 1: purpose was arming themselves so that they could police the police,
Speaker 1: because shockingly, the police state sanctioned murder of black people
Speaker 1: goes back throughout history to when the police were founded
Speaker 1: as like slave patrols, and the way that they treated
Speaker 1: that was by execute woting their leaders and killing people
Speaker 1: and arresting people. I mean, there's so many books like
Speaker 1: this about so many specific things that just like essentially
Speaker 1: boiled down to like some big American idea with an
Speaker 1: asterisk next to it, that's the terms and conditions apply, right,
Speaker 1: just so you know, like if for to some people,
Speaker 1: and yeah, to even look at like, yeah, it's your point, Francisco,
Speaker 1: like you think if they could take it off the
Speaker 1: table at one god damn, black people won't have guns.
Speaker 1: We don't have to worry about that. Ship. But there's
Speaker 1: something about the racism in this country that's so shortsighted
Speaker 1: and just reactionary without like really considering it, and then
Speaker 1: like down the road and be like, oh yeah, what
Speaker 1: was that about. Wait that was race. Oh yeah, we
Speaker 1: didn't look. It's it's been so many years now and
Speaker 1: it's so ingrained in the culture and we're not really
Speaker 1: interested in again parsing through that and understanding the motivations
Speaker 1: behind having amendments like this or the perceived rights of
Speaker 1: things like this. But yeah, it's just it's yeah, even liberals,
Speaker 1: like you're saying Jack initially that you know, they consider
Speaker 1: this untouchable, like well, you know, in Second Amendment rights people,
Speaker 1: and you know, and it's just it's seen as such
Speaker 1: a quote unquote cultural almost religious, almost put in the
Speaker 1: same category, you know, as someone who's pro life on
Speaker 1: religious grounds, and that's obviously a separate bullshit issue, um,
Speaker 1: but like this, this sort of scene as that is
Speaker 1: super untouchable because liberals also planned to the idea that
Speaker 1: our founding fathers were good and that they were not racist,
Speaker 1: and yeah, maybe they owned slaves, but they were good
Speaker 1: people and everybody owned slaves and that's exactly what they
Speaker 1: took care of. But it's like no, and it's Okay,
Speaker 1: we're just we're given speaking of you guys asked about
Speaker 1: myths on this show all the time, and you know,
Speaker 1: the founding myth that like this country is was founded
Speaker 1: by good people and on good terms. It's like, no,
Speaker 1: we have to We're told so many myths that uphold that,
Speaker 1: and it feels, it does feel scary to unravel and
Speaker 1: begin to unravel those myths we're told. You know, Polka
Speaker 1: Hunt is totally consented to being John Smith child brat,
Speaker 1: you know, that kind of crap that like, but it's
Speaker 1: okay if we can replace it with like new ideas
Speaker 1: and we can replace it with like better aspirations, you
Speaker 1: know what I mean. I think, you know, Obama had
Speaker 1: words the best words, Uh, he really did, and like
Speaker 1: I think he began to carve out and I wish
Speaker 1: we could have someone who has actually made good on
Speaker 1: his promises, you know, to carve out this idea that
Speaker 1: we're still constructing this American dream. And it is why
Speaker 1: a lot of civil rights organizers and activists call for
Speaker 1: what they they say they name a third reconstruction, the
Speaker 1: second reconstruction being the civil rights movement, the first reconstruction
Speaker 1: being a failed attempt but you know, of of equality,
Speaker 1: and we still have to strive for that. But and
Speaker 1: it's okay, we can let go of these old myths,
Speaker 1: but not if liberals keep on conflating this ship, which
Speaker 1: is so clearly racist, with some kind of religious or
Speaker 1: foul additional untouchable principle of American nous that we can't
Speaker 1: actually reform. Yeah, and I think it's and then I
Speaker 1: think more people have to begin to see that unwillingness
Speaker 1: as like an absolute red line in terms of not
Speaker 1: wanting to vote for someone to support someone like that,
Speaker 1: because you're like, we need representatives who are gonna look
Speaker 1: with a sober eye at our history, see where we
Speaker 1: came from, to understand where we need to go. Because
Speaker 1: if you're already playing with this like obscure, oh, sanitized version,
Speaker 1: you could never solve a problem. And it's like, looking
Speaker 1: at you have a fucking X ray and ship and
Speaker 1: it's like some crayon drawing and you're like, yeah, it
Speaker 1: looks like that one red spot on the bone should go.
Speaker 1: And you're like, I wish this were a real X
Speaker 1: ray so you could actually see what you're looking at
Speaker 1: inside my chest where it is specifically what Organs. It's
Speaker 1: damaging because this other version of being like yeah, this bad,
Speaker 1: we should cut it out isn't going to get to
Speaker 1: the point and isn't going to create the sort of
Speaker 1: forward momentum in progress that we're seeking. And yeah, it's
Speaker 1: it's it is a hard thing, and we do need
Speaker 1: to keep looking at it. To your point of saying like, yeah,
Speaker 1: we don't have to just talk about how fucked up
Speaker 1: everything is. You can pivot to that and say, yeah,
Speaker 1: that was the world as it was, and this is
Speaker 1: the world as it should be. And these are the
Speaker 1: people who were moving to try and take our country
Speaker 1: and our society to the world as it should be.
Speaker 1: And this is what we're still building on. See, we
Speaker 1: want to build on this momentum rather than like yeah,
Speaker 1: thanks John Adams, sick bro, and then just leaving it there. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this argument and this kind of connecting of the Second
Speaker 1: Amendment to systemic white supremacy, just the anger and vitriol
Speaker 1: and fear tied up in the Second Amendment argument and
Speaker 1: guns rights people never fully made sense to me. It
Speaker 1: was always I was always picturing when they said, like
Speaker 1: they're gonna come for our guns, and like that I
Speaker 1: need my guns to like protect my family. They always
Speaker 1: talk about like the government coming for your guns, and
Speaker 1: it's like, what are you talking about, Like that's not
Speaker 1: even a thing that we have in our history. But
Speaker 1: I think when you connect it to the white supremacy,
Speaker 1: the fact that you know, we've talked before on the
Speaker 1: show about the fact that they know white supremacy is
Speaker 1: a lie. Like on some level, they know that they
Speaker 1: know they live on a graveyard of horrific abuses that
Speaker 1: propped them up to wherever they exist, and that black
Speaker 1: Americans have every right to demand retribution, and they know
Speaker 1: that this is this lie that every American has the
Speaker 1: right to own guns is a massive advantage they have,
Speaker 1: and that's why they're obsessed with stories about how crime
Speaker 1: ridden cities are so that they can like justify their fear.
Speaker 1: Like when when you ask people who watch Fox News
Speaker 1: what they think a city is, like, it's it's so
Speaker 1: outside the bounds of reality. They think it's odds that
Speaker 1: HBO show, yes, they did, playing out in a Starbucks.
Speaker 1: That's why, and that's why they're so outraged anytime anyone
Speaker 1: criticizes police violence. But it's why they are so like
Speaker 1: there's all that fear, all those lies, all that hatred,
Speaker 1: like holding the idea of white supremacy in their mind
Speaker 1: along with some part of them that has seen that
Speaker 1: that ship is not true. Like then they're trying to
Speaker 1: hold those together, and that creates cognitive dissonance, It creates angry,
Speaker 1: it creates fear, and it just really the the image.
Speaker 1: As I was like kind of listening to her interview
Speaker 1: with Terry Gross's substitute teacher, I forget that David David
Speaker 1: beyond Something's like Terry Gross's sub and then like reading
Speaker 1: up on this book, the thing that kept hopping into
Speaker 1: my head is that suburban St. Louis couple who when
Speaker 1: Black Lives Matter protesters were walking past their home, they
Speaker 1: stood on their front lawn holding their guns and like
Speaker 1: waving them at them, like kind of waving their right
Speaker 1: to own guns as a privilege in the face of
Speaker 1: black protesters who would be killed on site for holding
Speaker 1: guns that open like just being like, this is our advantage.
Speaker 1: Fuck you like that. That is her whole argument really
Speaker 1: kind of ties a lot of things together for me. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and go beyond that. I mean, the entire Trump presidency
Speaker 1: is an emblem, an homage to white supremacy, to the
Speaker 1: idea that if you're rich and white enough and a dude,
Speaker 1: you can get away with anything. Look at January six.
Speaker 1: I always talk about this. I'm just like, man, I'm
Speaker 1: Marshawn Washington. Many times I would be murdered. Just how
Speaker 1: close would I have gotten to breaking a window the
Speaker 1: Capitol steps had we been you know, work like protesting
Speaker 1: a war, protesting the International Monetary Fund, protesting police murder
Speaker 1: like or anything. It's just so like when we I
Speaker 1: feel like, as a white person watching the January six,
Speaker 1: like every white person, I don't know, I am half white,
Speaker 1: and I so I kind of understand this, but like
Speaker 1: must have been looking at and being like, man, white
Speaker 1: privilege really is kind of a thing like looking at
Speaker 1: because you know, people of color in this country where
Speaker 1: like white privilege is absolutely look at that. Look at that, Yeah,
Speaker 1: look at the way there's no accountability for that. A
Speaker 1: few months later, absolutely and so disheartening to witness too
Speaker 1: as a black person and Asian person living in this
Speaker 1: country and saying, see, they can fucking go and do
Speaker 1: that because they're upset that Trump isn't president. Meanwhile, we're
Speaker 1: looking at real fucked up outcomes for unarmed people, and
Speaker 1: you know, it's like everybody knows. I'm like, no, it's
Speaker 1: foolish enough to come armed to something like that. As
Speaker 1: a person class, the game is just completely different, and
Speaker 1: the sad thing is too like on the on the
Speaker 1: face of it, in history, marginalized people have more of
Speaker 1: a reason to be like, no, I need these guns, man.
Speaker 1: Have you seen what they Have you seen what they
Speaker 1: do to us? Have you seen what they do to us? Oh?
Speaker 1: Hell no? And how are you gonna how are we
Speaker 1: gonna move forward at all? When we're just kind of
Speaker 1: looking at these small issue or not that this is
Speaker 1: a small issue, but we're not really looking at changing
Speaker 1: real lived outcomes for people and just thinking like, well,
Speaker 1: maybe if the guns are gone, that could be something. No,
Speaker 1: how about you give people support, how about you give
Speaker 1: them options? How about you give them upboard mobility, Because
Speaker 1: I'm sure most people would prefer that than to live
Speaker 1: in a you know, in a cycle of fear and
Speaker 1: violence and anger, uh, and would much rather be in
Speaker 1: a place of abundance on some level or just to
Speaker 1: have some relief. That's why it's so upsetting. Things, you know,
Speaker 1: instances like Philando castile, because you're absolutely right that unarmed
Speaker 1: black people get gunned down all the time, and so
Speaker 1: what is to whine not just be armed? They get
Speaker 1: gunned down by vigilantes, um self proclaimed vigilantes. Now I'm
Speaker 1: blinking on his name. But the gentleman who was killed,
Speaker 1: the young kid who was killed last year, no right before,
Speaker 1: um George Floyd u ahmat auvery yeah, I'm at auby
Speaker 1: and former police officers and then most recently another young
Speaker 1: But it's like every time the conversation if someone had
Speaker 1: a gun, the internet conversation is, oh, but he had
Speaker 1: a gun, but he had a gun. Oh, his hands
Speaker 1: were up, but he had a gun. Then kill him
Speaker 1: on site. That's not allowed, depending again, terms and conditions apply.
Speaker 1: Like it's the number one tool for white supremacy, is
Speaker 1: this lie and being able to just enforce this lie
Speaker 1: within sort of the mainstream culture that you know, well,
Speaker 1: really only white people are allowed to have guns, like
Speaker 1: and if somebody who isn't white has a gun, the
Speaker 1: police will murder them on site like that. That's unbelievable.
Speaker 1: And like the fact that it's not set out loud
Speaker 1: like constantly like that, that is the it's a shocking,
Speaker 1: like dystopian reality that I just feel like people don't
Speaker 1: say Asian American gun ownership soaring through the roof. I
Speaker 1: do believe in gun control except for Asian elders. I
Speaker 1: think we should arm Asian aunties and uncles with a
Speaker 1: R fifteen. That's it. They're the only ones police no guns.
Speaker 1: Everyone else no guns. But Asian aunties and uncles, we
Speaker 1: arm them. They patrol. Yeah, and they tell you obviously,
Speaker 1: like how to choose a good watermelon, and you know,
Speaker 1: how to stay out, how to stay out of the sun.
Speaker 1: Very very disciplined. On the triggers, that's a bust. They're
Speaker 1: going for anything. They're like, you know, I'm gonna hit
Speaker 1: you with it real quick first. Yeah, oh no, no,
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna it's not loaded. I will smack you
Speaker 1: over the head with this stuff. It's a big gas bat.
Speaker 1: That's who I believe in army. I'm with their little baskets.
Speaker 1: They can carry them in the little front portion of it.
Speaker 1: I'm about that. Here we go, all right, let's take
Speaker 1: a quick break and we'll be right back. And we're back,
Speaker 1: and we touched on Naomi Osaka dropping from the French
Speaker 1: Open earlier this week and just kind of connecting it
Speaker 1: to the overall movement in the culture far too late
Speaker 1: and far too little. But to be like, wait, are
Speaker 1: athletes humans? Like where when labor When somebody spit on
Speaker 1: Trey Young like and dumped popcorn on an injured Russell
Speaker 1: Westbrook like that that was even treated as a thing.
Speaker 1: It seems kind of new. But the Naomi Osaka being
Speaker 1: the best and most famous athlete who is like kind
Speaker 1: of breaking new ground and just being like, I need
Speaker 1: to I need to take care of my mental health. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Well the progression of things is so interesting, right because
Speaker 1: the first she was like, look, just so you know,
Speaker 1: next week when the tournament starts, I'm not gonna be
Speaker 1: to impress um. I suffer from depression and I get
Speaker 1: terrible anxiety before press conferences. And I'm I'm trying to,
Speaker 1: you know, being a peak mental shape for a fucking
Speaker 1: Grand Slam tennis tournament because that's what I do as
Speaker 1: I do my ship on the court. I don't talk
Speaker 1: to fucking somebody from NBC Sports. I serve. I hit aces, okay,
Speaker 1: I hit the backhand and forehand. I'm not here to
Speaker 1: fucking give you a hot take on some other ship,
Speaker 1: and I hate that that's what happens in these press conferences.
Speaker 1: They've meant they take me out of my zone and
Speaker 1: I'm trying to be very conscious of that. And first
Speaker 1: she was like, y'all eat the fine. I know they're
Speaker 1: gonna find me because I'm these are mandatory appearances at
Speaker 1: these press conferences. Then the tournament came back and said, okay,
Speaker 1: but here's the deal, like, if you don't comply, this
Speaker 1: could lead to suspensions from future tournaments, um and really
Speaker 1: funck your career up. So she was essentially forced to
Speaker 1: pick between her mental health and winning the French Open,
Speaker 1: and she picked the former. She said, you know what
Speaker 1: I'm gonna I'm picking me every fucking time. And she
Speaker 1: talked about how again she was struggling with depression. The
Speaker 1: director of the French Open tournament wished her, like quote
Speaker 1: a speedy recovery because she says, you're gonna take some
Speaker 1: time because we all know, you know, anxiety and depression.
Speaker 1: That's just you just do a little bit of stretching
Speaker 1: and put some ice on it and then you'll get
Speaker 1: over that ship. That's how it works. Like and this
Speaker 1: idea that they are so disconnected from the humanity of it.
Speaker 1: I think kicked off many discussions like from what even
Speaker 1: means from a labor perspective, right, like the conditions that
Speaker 1: you're working under. Do you need to subject yourself to
Speaker 1: this if you say, my primary function is to play
Speaker 1: the tennis and that's how y'all make all your sponsorship money,
Speaker 1: it's not because I talk at these press conferences, or
Speaker 1: even just how sports journalism works, where you know, we're
Speaker 1: in an age now where you're incentivized to ask like
Speaker 1: provocative questions, to create some controversy and to to monetize
Speaker 1: that because that's sort of how they game is set up.
Speaker 1: So you know, people saying, oh, she's a millionaire, just
Speaker 1: get on with it, become the funk on, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean? Like this is she's a human being.
Speaker 1: And anyone who saw that Australian Open, that first Grand
Speaker 1: Slam she won against Serena Williams, that was an absolute
Speaker 1: shit show for her. It was disgraceful how she was treated,
Speaker 1: the ship that she went through. She was in tears
Speaker 1: winning her first Grand Slam because all of the energy
Speaker 1: went towards some other thing. I mean, it's it's a
Speaker 1: terrible position to be in, but I think yeah to
Speaker 1: to hear. Like, the other thing that's a little bit
Speaker 1: disheartening is the lack of support from like other tennis players.
Speaker 1: I know, like the Williams sisters have been pretty clear
Speaker 1: because that there was that clip that's been going around
Speaker 1: and I think it was a young Serena being interviewed
Speaker 1: and this like when she was like, you know, maybe
Speaker 1: thirteen or twelve, and this journalist was like, so you're
Speaker 1: pretty confident that you can win. She's like, yeah, I
Speaker 1: think I can beat anyone. And he's like, whoa, So
Speaker 1: you're really confident. She's like yeah. He's like what what
Speaker 1: makes you so confident? And her dad's like, Okay, this
Speaker 1: ship is over. I told you you're not doing this
Speaker 1: to my daughter. Like, if she says she's sucking confident,
Speaker 1: let her fucking say that she's a fucking athlete and
Speaker 1: if that's what she has to do to get in
Speaker 1: the zone to perform, how dare you fucking try and
Speaker 1: take her out of it? This was Serena's that sorry,
Speaker 1: it was one of the I forget which sister was specific,
Speaker 1: but is one of the Williams sisters and their father
Speaker 1: completely interrupted the interview when they began to undermine their
Speaker 1: confidence as a child. And you realize, like when you
Speaker 1: see things like this, you people forget it's not just
Speaker 1: about like, oh, they played tennis for a living, Okay,
Speaker 1: to play at that level, It's it's a whole other
Speaker 1: it's a whole other existence. It's very much a mind game.
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not that into sport, and uh, I
Speaker 1: don't know that much, but you know, I generally understand
Speaker 1: them to be team exercises. In large part. Tennis is
Speaker 1: so in your head. It is one and fifty percent
Speaker 1: in your mind and in your head. So like if
Speaker 1: you're gonna need some like space and mental clarity and
Speaker 1: meant and just like distance and not having to talk
Speaker 1: to press, it's gonna be in tennis. One. The second thing,
Speaker 1: like I she gives me hope, like Naomi Alsaka gives
Speaker 1: me hope for the future, because this is that gen
Speaker 1: Z energy of like, no, I'm just kind of not
Speaker 1: going to take the bullshit and I'm gonna I'm gonna
Speaker 1: know my own worth, I'm gonna know my own mental health.
Speaker 1: I'm not being clearly driven into the ground by a parent,
Speaker 1: which I think so many athletes are and then no,
Speaker 1: you're just not going to own this part of me.
Speaker 1: And I'm okay with that. And like the most power
Speaker 1: move in the fact that like a twenty four year
Speaker 1: old woman can pull this power move at the French
Speaker 1: Open is just well, it's so beautiful and it really
Speaker 1: does give me hope for for these generations. And it's
Speaker 1: also interesting to see because you know, the backlash from
Speaker 1: this is sort of to your point, is like it's
Speaker 1: they're addressing that there's an imbalance of power by her
Speaker 1: doing this. Yeah, and they don't like that someone could
Speaker 1: have that kind of agency and like thwart the traditions
Speaker 1: of this tournament. And I think it's it's it's the
Speaker 1: same thing like this this remember when they were they
Speaker 1: were coming at the Serena Williams Cats Suit the French Open.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean. They have a real fucked
Speaker 1: up track record of doing anything that is remotely progressive
Speaker 1: or open to letting people do what they want for
Speaker 1: their mental health or letting a woman of color do
Speaker 1: what she needs to because remember she was wearing what
Speaker 1: wasn't the cats suit for like her circulation. It wasn't
Speaker 1: like because she was like I'm out here to do
Speaker 1: this like a stunt fucking fashion show. She's like, this
Speaker 1: is actually helping me physically. I'm not what if it
Speaker 1: was anyway, you know, yeah, but whatever. I think that's
Speaker 1: what they were first trying to say, and it was
Speaker 1: just you know, it's just a completely uh you see
Speaker 1: this sort of the the powers that be sort of
Speaker 1: get this smack in the face, like how what they
Speaker 1: said no to us? But we're but we're this tournament
Speaker 1: and yeah. Again, I hope to see more tennis players
Speaker 1: back her, because that's what they need to really start
Speaker 1: to get. If they're going to get these tournaments to bend,
Speaker 1: they need a they need a like a plurality of
Speaker 1: players to say no no. I kind of agree with this,
Speaker 1: um Like, if I didn't have to do press conferences,
Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I mean, I understand the nature of doing
Speaker 1: press and things like that. So maybe we can find
Speaker 1: some happy medium where I'm a little bit more in
Speaker 1: control and I can engage with it in a way
Speaker 1: that is absolutely comfortable for me and still takes into
Speaker 1: consideration my performance. But to say for people to kind
Speaker 1: of sit silently it is kind of a bummer because
Speaker 1: this could this could be a really pivotal moment to
Speaker 1: really gain more and more momentum. Yeah, the media has
Speaker 1: so much power over these athletes because they can start
Speaker 1: a story about the fucking cat suit or whatever they can.
Speaker 1: They can turn that into a controversy that becomes a
Speaker 1: distraction that affects their ability to play, that affects their
Speaker 1: the trajectory of their career, and then they're like, wow,
Speaker 1: Serena didn't have at this tournament and show like that.
Speaker 1: So the way that they are acting in response to
Speaker 1: the naomio saka de say as and is by being like, so,
Speaker 1: how do you guys deal with it? Like basically singling
Speaker 1: her out and then asking the people who didn't drop out,
Speaker 1: so why didn't you drop out? You love us right
Speaker 1: like this is and Venus Williams response revealed the amount
Speaker 1: of like disdain bordering on hatred that like is the
Speaker 1: status quo of like that relationship. They were like, so,
Speaker 1: how do you cope with the press? And she said,
Speaker 1: for me, personally, how I cope how I deal with
Speaker 1: it is that I know every single person asking me
Speaker 1: a question can't play as well as I can and
Speaker 1: never will. So no matter what you say, or what
Speaker 1: you write, you'll never light a candle to me. And
Speaker 1: that's how I deal with it. But each person deals
Speaker 1: with it differently. It's just like fuck all of you.
Speaker 1: You are like just there to make their lives complicated
Speaker 1: and difficult and then like to have an ego about
Speaker 1: it and to like be asking follow up questions about
Speaker 1: like what what's her neal? Guys, everyone should watch the
Speaker 1: Maradonna documentary on HBO. Um I lived in Argentina for
Speaker 1: a while. I love Maradonna and the press utterly fucked
Speaker 1: him from Italy's Pressed, Argentina's pressed to everybody, and it's
Speaker 1: just such a good doc. But he always had just
Speaker 1: had the best lines coming back at the media. Always
Speaker 1: he would he would say, like, which means your dick
Speaker 1: is on the inside, which could potentially be problematic for
Speaker 1: other reasons, but you know he was that's like what
Speaker 1: he would say to their faces, you know, to the
Speaker 1: media's faces, and like, you know, his fans have like
Speaker 1: a whole song about like, you know, news media. They
Speaker 1: just he hated them and it was so funny. And
Speaker 1: it only makes it worse, obviously, because the way they
Speaker 1: cover you only makes it worse. And same with politicians,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. It's like not to say Naomi,
Speaker 1: I mean I really do like Naomi Osaka, but the
Speaker 1: she's the same as Bernie Sanders and this is one
Speaker 1: or whatever. But like Bernie is like this most zero
Speaker 1: glad handy guy. He's not gonna like give you the
Speaker 1: fluff piece, the palace intrigue, the blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 1: You know, and the media hates him also. He wants
Speaker 1: to you know, break up giant corporations and take away
Speaker 1: all of their donors, but and their funders, which might
Speaker 1: have had something to do with it too. But it's
Speaker 1: just so funny when you see people who don't play
Speaker 1: the media game. They play their game, and they do
Speaker 1: it very very very well. Just how um yeah, how
Speaker 1: fragile and how quickly that they can turn on you.
Speaker 1: And I hope this is a turning point and so
Speaker 1: they don't destroy a young woman's career and life like
Speaker 1: they have so many athletes and so many people in
Speaker 1: the public eye. Yeah, I think just whenever, even like
Speaker 1: celebrities who don't play into the tabloid ship, they love
Speaker 1: to fucking then be like now, fuck it, we'll do
Speaker 1: whatever the funk we want now person. If they don't
Speaker 1: want to fucking pose and they want to keep their
Speaker 1: life fucking private, then we'll fucking do whatever the fun
Speaker 1: we can to create pain and something. Yeah, it's a
Speaker 1: really odd relationship. And even with that Venus Williams quote,
Speaker 1: you know, you don't arrive there because you were there,
Speaker 1: like that day one that always you've been through so
Speaker 1: much ship already and you've already had especially when she
Speaker 1: came out before Serena and Serena became like the IT
Speaker 1: player and everyone's like, what happened to Vena? You know
Speaker 1: what I mean? Can you imagine the fucking seth like
Speaker 1: having to read all these stories like is Venus Williams
Speaker 1: even relevant or whatever? Yes, she is, and that you
Speaker 1: have she's just number two, like when you're just pitting
Speaker 1: her against her sister, like yeah, and like developing having
Speaker 1: to develop this skin already from you know, having to
Speaker 1: already operate an environment where they're trying to create all
Speaker 1: these wild narratives to get to whether it's to funk
Speaker 1: with you or just because it's easier, just great commentary
Speaker 1: around it. And I think, yeah, it's I'm curious to
Speaker 1: see if there's any kind of evolution in like sports journalism,
Speaker 1: especially like as it just pertains to this to see
Speaker 1: if there is a way where they can feel like, okay,
Speaker 1: we can we we can find a way to work
Speaker 1: with this. I don't know if they can, and been
Speaker 1: considering the you know, sympathy that we've seen on display
Speaker 1: from the organizers of the French Open. I don't know,
Speaker 1: but yeah, worth looking into. I just like, this is
Speaker 1: no disrespect to any player we've discussed yet. But again,
Speaker 1: as someone who doesn't follow that much sports, but when
Speaker 1: I hear interviews with athletes, I'm always like, this is
Speaker 1: boring and bad and like, how is it you know,
Speaker 1: to win? Off? All good? You know, it's really good. Yeah,
Speaker 1: how is it to lose? You know, we tried our
Speaker 1: best out there. Anyway, leave me a lot, like what
Speaker 1: are you getting? These are not this is not what
Speaker 1: they do. By the smartest thing they can do is
Speaker 1: give the most boring answers possible, which makes them look
Speaker 1: like an idiot, which again is like it's a situation
Speaker 1: for athletes, Like it's like, no, they very well could
Speaker 1: be very interesting, intelligent people who have something interesting to say.
Speaker 1: That ship will come out in their book many years
Speaker 1: after they retire because they're not gonna fucking give you
Speaker 1: what you want. Like no, and you but you can't
Speaker 1: be too interesting. Just give them a little something, but
Speaker 1: not too interesting because you have If you have big opinions,
Speaker 1: they're gonna they will clobber you for that. We have
Speaker 1: a little bit to say, if you have any shade
Speaker 1: to throw, if you have any critique, don't have a critique.
Speaker 1: Never have a critique. Which is so funny because the
Speaker 1: sports reporters and analysts, that's all they do is critique. Yeah,
Speaker 1: let them do it, that's what they do. Yeah, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean the same thing. Like Marshawn Lynch was just
Speaker 1: kind of like he had to adopt a mindset. He's like,
Speaker 1: y'all come here and I'll fulfill the thing. But he
Speaker 1: was very unequivalental and being like when I when I
Speaker 1: leave here, I don't go into looking at a Twitter
Speaker 1: or the the news to see what y'all are saying
Speaker 1: about me. I go and I live my life at
Speaker 1: home with the people that know me, that know who
Speaker 1: I am, and I don't really have to explain ship
Speaker 1: to them because they know me and I don't know
Speaker 1: what you guys want me to say, but I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna say it. I'm just gonna be here to whatever,
Speaker 1: give whatever answer I want to give. But that's my
Speaker 1: proget I showed you what I wanted to say, was
Speaker 1: what I showed you out there on the field or
Speaker 1: the I don't know, they were talking about the field, right, yeah, yeah,
