Speaker 1: exactly as my dad still says, Well, we are thrilled
Speaker 1: to be joined in our third seat by one of
Speaker 1: the greats, the hilarious, the talented Brandy Poser. Yeah, Brandy,
Speaker 1: I'm a fine girl. What a good wife I would be,
Speaker 1: but I don't want to get married. Thank you. Hey,
Speaker 1: what a good partner. Thank you so much, thank you,
Speaker 1: thank you. I think so um I could hear the Hamsters,
Speaker 1: the Kia Hamsters popping up behind you. I have a
Speaker 1: friend who I don't know if. I don't know if
Speaker 1: my boy Daniel still has the Kia soul. But you know,
Speaker 1: we all, we all colloquially referred that to as hamster car. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I know people who then, like when it became
Speaker 1: hamster car, sold it because they didn't want to be
Speaker 1: in what was known colloquially known as hamster car. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I think that campaign for us popular as it was,
Speaker 1: I think it ended up hurting the car more than
Speaker 1: helping it at all. Yeah, or people who just didn't
Speaker 1: see commercials and pure just like as like an objective,
Speaker 1: like I need a car with these things at this price.
Speaker 1: It's that great. But anyone who got bit by the marketing,
Speaker 1: they're like, no, I can't, I can't pull up in
Speaker 1: the Hamster car. Well, because also they had the giant
Speaker 1: like cardboard cutouts of the Hamsters and stuff at all
Speaker 1: the dealership there that was like a big indoor mall
Speaker 1: thing for about like a year. It was just like
Speaker 1: a giant hamster and sunglasses. Yeah, they were all over
Speaker 1: the place. That's like, that's like a doormal indormal. It's
Speaker 1: fuck you know what I mean? Bring back the Kia Hamsters. Yeah,
Speaker 1: where are they during quarantine? Or they where is their
Speaker 1: ABC multicam sitcom It's coming? Caveman got was that NBC
Speaker 1: or ABC? But oh the Hamsters better have their fucking show.
Speaker 1: Oh it's coming for sure. And as we've talked about,
Speaker 1: they were trying to replicate the Ernest Boom. You know,
Speaker 1: Ernest started as a commercial and you can't touch you
Speaker 1: can't touch Ernest though. I mean Jim Varney was like
Speaker 1: a talent unrivaled by any other. Yeah. I think it
Speaker 1: needs to start with like a local ad. I think
Speaker 1: it needs to be like the the cinematic universe of
Speaker 1: the damn Son. Where did you find those? Guy? Maybe
Speaker 1: we could Yeah, I think right now the local one
Speaker 1: is the person where the money reside, where the money reside,
Speaker 1: where the money reside. That that's probably the closest thing
Speaker 1: I've seen to like viral car sales people. Right now,
Speaker 1: all right, Brandy, we're gonna get to know you a
Speaker 1: little bit better in a moment. First, we're gonna tell
Speaker 1: our listeners a couple of the things we're talking about. Uh.
Speaker 1: We're gonna get a little speculative, Uh, speculate about the
Speaker 1: French presidential election that's happening next year. Uh that might
Speaker 1: be a preview of the election in the US if
Speaker 1: the Democrats don't get there. Ship in order, we're gonna
Speaker 1: talk about a police reform bill that got an accidental
Speaker 1: Republican vote. Uh. Some of the one sixers are entering
Speaker 1: the find out stage of the of the pro because
Speaker 1: uh and of course, uh, the world is a buzz
Speaker 1: over the upcoming Megan and Harry Oprah interview. Uh. And
Speaker 1: as we know, Harry is uh Miles's birthday brother. So
Speaker 1: we're going to talk about that. So this is about
Speaker 1: me more or less. In the end, I'd rather watch
Speaker 1: you talk to Oprah than either of them. But yeah,
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk about So there's this anecdote that keeps
Speaker 1: getting brought up that workers in Denmark make twenty two
Speaker 1: an hour. Uh. We're we're gonna talk about just that anecdote,
Speaker 1: how that came to be, whether it actually makes Big
Speaker 1: Max more expensive it does not? Uh yeah, yeah, spoiler. Uh.
Speaker 1: And we will talk about how America's terminal individualism uh
Speaker 1: funked up Philly's vaccine rollout, all of that plenty more.
Speaker 1: But first, Brandy, we like to ask our guest, what
Speaker 1: is something from your search history that's revealing about who
Speaker 1: you are? Well? Uh, the other night, the last thing
Speaker 1: that I really really searched was I was looking forward
Speaker 1: to either of you guys watched Forged in Fire. No,
Speaker 1: but I know what it is, which is the knife
Speaker 1: competition show History Channel. Yeah, I've seen it. I've seen
Speaker 1: a couple episodes, but now I'm not avid, big, big,
Speaker 1: big fan of it. And my favorite episode is with
Speaker 1: the third episode of the show ever, it's the like
Speaker 1: Viking Battle Acts episode with my dude name reu Lynn
Speaker 1: Reu is the best forgun fire competitor of all time.
Speaker 1: And I've been forcing my roommate my boyfriend to watch
Speaker 1: forged In Fire because it's the perfect like background TV
Speaker 1: show because it's like, I only like reality shows that
Speaker 1: are people at the top of their game being kind
Speaker 1: and respectful of each other's craft, which they basically have
Speaker 1: two options. Yeah, I watched I watched bake Off, I
Speaker 1: watched Great Pottery Throwdown, and I watched forged In Fire. Also,
Speaker 1: if you have not watched The Great Pottery throw Down
Speaker 1: onto HBO highly recommended. One of the judges loves pottery
Speaker 1: so much that he cries at a pot in every episode.
Speaker 1: Do you watch Repair Shop which have fixed this stuff?
Speaker 1: And yeah, like I figured that's another one, experts being
Speaker 1: like yes, and oh great work on this leather. I
Speaker 1: just want to see you be good at the thing
Speaker 1: that you put your money, your your time and your
Speaker 1: money into doing, like that's what I love. I love
Speaker 1: Forged in Fire anyway, they love the Reu episode. I
Speaker 1: highly recommend to everybody. He's a little he's a little weirdo.
Speaker 1: He built like a forge in his backyard with a
Speaker 1: satellite dish, and the cop the like fire department got
Speaker 1: called on him. But he still did really great in
Speaker 1: his episode. So how does the satellite dish? Is that
Speaker 1: just because it has a shape that makes it His
Speaker 1: forge was too small to make the Viking battle axt
Speaker 1: so he cut his satellite dish to make it bigger
Speaker 1: so he could actually be forging it on the inside.
Speaker 1: It's a hell of a thing. Okay, just I like that.
Speaker 1: Just ingenuity too, of like, fuck it, I need a
Speaker 1: bigger all right, get a satellite just looking It's funny
Speaker 1: that you say you like a show where experts are
Speaker 1: at the top of their game picking up each other
Speaker 1: in a kind way, which is funny because I'm at
Speaker 1: the other end of the spectrum, which is I like
Speaker 1: to watch experts scream at idiots and that's my fit,
Speaker 1: like Bar Rescue Boy, that early Bar Rescue like that.
Speaker 1: But all that to say, I also find their different
Speaker 1: different sides of the coin. But yes, I just like
Speaker 1: a competent person. I like bar rescue too, because like
Speaker 1: it is like a competent person coming being like I
Speaker 1: want you to succeed, and this is how to do
Speaker 1: it right. But also you're an idiot and let's let's
Speaker 1: take a second to realize racism isn't a good policy
Speaker 1: at your bar. Yes. Often often that's why the yelling happens,
Speaker 1: and it is great to see. Have you have you
Speaker 1: ever like caught yourself in a bar rescue bar and
Speaker 1: been like, wait has this bar been rescued? Yes? I have, um,
Speaker 1: but I also went because it was like one of
Speaker 1: the like a local bar, and like, yo, we gotta
Speaker 1: we gotta see what happened after Taffer came through, it
Speaker 1: was okay, you know, yeah, they're not they don't. They
Speaker 1: don't do a very good job. It is a reality
Speaker 1: TV show budget, yeah exactly. And also shows that are
Speaker 1: like about rescuing a business, they typically have a terrible
Speaker 1: record of the businesses actually pulling through on the other side,
Speaker 1: like with Hell's or Kitchen Nightmares. The Gordon Ramsey one
Speaker 1: was like five restaurants that made it a month even
Speaker 1: after he left. It's almost like the person running the
Speaker 1: place should be replaced, right, we have the emotional arc
Speaker 1: that would be great pages. And we decided to fire
Speaker 1: the general manager because so what we did is we
Speaker 1: sold your business on behalf of you. So you're liquid
Speaker 1: in this amount. We've covered some of the debt you have,
Speaker 1: so at least you're walking away with something which is
Speaker 1: more than just running this thing out until it vaporized
Speaker 1: upon entry re entry into earth. That's when they should
Speaker 1: should have like a bar reparations rescue where it's just
Speaker 1: like taking like racist white businesses and liquidating them and
Speaker 1: then giving them people color to like just be like here,
Speaker 1: you're gonna do a much better job with this. That's
Speaker 1: that's my pitch, Hollywood. Yeah, if Ilhan Omar and AOC
Speaker 1: or the president, that would be that's what's going to happen.
Speaker 1: The Secretary of Reality TV right over here, I think
Speaker 1: for listeners cannot see the shoulder shimmy that was going
Speaker 1: on when the brandy was naming herself the secretary of
Speaker 1: Reality TV. Unfortunately, see you. Now, I do love like
Speaker 1: in bar rescue shows. Uh, that's a particularly good one
Speaker 1: because it's like the stuff that they're doing wrong is
Speaker 1: always so obvious. They're like, yeah, yeah, so we have
Speaker 1: our general mat or like they gut. The owner of
Speaker 1: the bar is an alcoholic who drinks most of the
Speaker 1: booze and doesn't pay for it, uh and gives it
Speaker 1: away to his friends. Uh. Okay, what what what can
Speaker 1: we do better here? So your cash here is a
Speaker 1: pile of mole old um that says the end word.
Speaker 1: How about we replace that? Figure it out from there.
Speaker 1: I mean, also impressive that you've got this black mold
Speaker 1: pile to become sentient and racist. But it's not good
Speaker 1: for your business. No, it's not. It's not get it
Speaker 1: out of here. What if we bring in a flaming
Speaker 1: drink of some time to counter it? Brandy, what is
Speaker 1: something you think is overrated? Okay? I always like to
Speaker 1: do my overrated underrated together and this is probably slightly controversial,
Speaker 1: but um, since we aren't doing much in quarantine, um,
Speaker 1: I really have come to the position that coffee is
Speaker 1: overrated and tea is underrated. I really don't think coffee
Speaker 1: makes me crash. I don't like the way it makes
Speaker 1: me feel. I don't I don't like it. I'm on it.
Speaker 1: I'm always like a little bit I peeked too quick
Speaker 1: on it and tea. I'm always just like ride and
Speaker 1: right at the good place I can go to sleep.
Speaker 1: If you're peeking too quickly to have some orange juice,
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, no, that's like the old ecstasy peak.
Speaker 1: I was in my mouth mixing coffee and orange juice
Speaker 1: right after it, and I was like, oh, because you
Speaker 1: put the orangese and so you vombed up the coffee
Speaker 1: and then you're not caffeinated at anymore perfect. I like
Speaker 1: what you're thinking, You found a steady, a steady caffeine
Speaker 1: buzz with your tea more is how you're saying. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I much prefer it, much much preferred. I feel like
Speaker 1: as Americans we don't get into tea the way we
Speaker 1: should because we are like an agri country and it's
Speaker 1: like the one thing from Britain that I think we
Speaker 1: should have kept. Yeah, that's where Joe comes from. Is
Speaker 1: in the I think it was World War two, they
Speaker 1: were like, God, these people love drinking fucking coffee. Gross um,
Speaker 1: And that's the Joe's um. How many people in America
Speaker 1: do you think drink coffee for the caffeine versus the
Speaker 1: the bout movement that comes from Oh no, I was
Speaker 1: gonna say, I know I'm at least going to ship
Speaker 1: once today. I feel like that's a very American Oh
Speaker 1: yeah thing. Yeah, I feel not have the same effect.
Speaker 1: It just makes you have to stick ship steadily throughout
Speaker 1: the whole day. No, it just like makes you you know,
Speaker 1: your body just works naturally that you weren't being like
Speaker 1: that doesn't sound like fun. Yeah in American, if I
Speaker 1: don't have explosive diarrhea once a day, I don't know,
Speaker 1: I want to have hard palpitations and bursting blood vessel
Speaker 1: in my eye when I'm sitting on the toilet. Miles,
Speaker 1: Where are you at with coffee? Have you ever got?
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, being Japanese, he's very v normal,
Speaker 1: V regular, always had um, I like tea. I like
Speaker 1: the thing is I never I'm I'm not as sensitive
Speaker 1: to caffeine, so like, I was never into any of
Speaker 1: this ship for the caffeine until I started drinking cold
Speaker 1: brew and like Vietnamese coffee. When I was like it
Speaker 1: was like the experience and I was like, Okay, maybe
Speaker 1: I'll sit on this a little bit. I'm starting to
Speaker 1: get it. But yeah, after then that kind of got old. Um.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm I like all of God's warm drinks
Speaker 1: and beverages. Wait, what what's the deal with Vietnamese coffee?
Speaker 1: I'm not. I don't think I'm familiar. That was just
Speaker 1: that was one of my first experiences with a brood
Speaker 1: coffee that was super heavy and caffeine. And I had
Speaker 1: it like this like bond we bond Bondui. No, we're
Speaker 1: not at the office anymore. That's a local business bond
Speaker 1: me spot in like north Ridge that I went to
Speaker 1: and I was asking something about the coffee and they're
Speaker 1: like they're like, oh, yeah, do you like espresso? And
Speaker 1: I'm like yeah, I mean it doesn't really get me there.
Speaker 1: They're like you'll like this and sit right there. Quite literally.
Speaker 1: I was just like screaming like I had just come
Speaker 1: out of some kind of like cryo sleep in a
Speaker 1: side pig. Oh man, that would mess me up to
Speaker 1: you bad. I remember I didn't. I never drank coffee
Speaker 1: until like my senior college. And it like was editing
Speaker 1: stuff overnight and like piqued me really bad, and like
Speaker 1: I was doing working like a rough rough cut of
Speaker 1: something and the next morning everything was cut like a
Speaker 1: half secon too fast. You invented YouTube editing. Yeah, four,
Speaker 1: I'm ahead of the We just gotta get all these
Speaker 1: spaces out of there is spaces in between the words
Speaker 1: why would we pause? No faster, faster, faster, jump cut,
Speaker 1: jump cut, jump cut no twitch twitch twitch twitch. Alright,
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break and we'll be right back
Speaker 1: to talk about some news. And we're back. All right,
Speaker 1: let's talk about real quick. They're they're seeing a trend
Speaker 1: in uh, the lead up to the next French election,
Speaker 1: next presidential election in France, which is next year. I
Speaker 1: believe that is showing that the left who once voted
Speaker 1: for Macron might actually either vote for le pen the
Speaker 1: like far right ideologue, basically their Trump fascist, or not
Speaker 1: vote at all in next year's presidential election because McCrone
Speaker 1: has been uh, you know, functionally the president of the rich,
Speaker 1: cutting wealth taxes right when he came into office, cracking
Speaker 1: down heavy on you know, workers revolutions, the Yellow Beest uprising,
Speaker 1: and recent polling is showing, yeah, lack of support for
Speaker 1: this like supposedly centrist candidate from the left, and you know,
Speaker 1: recent polling is putting le Pennant like, um, I mean
Speaker 1: it was closer it was closes last time to closer
Speaker 1: than they would have liked. So the fact that it's closer, sir,
Speaker 1: your policies, and I mean, I feel like, I don't know,
Speaker 1: I can't imagine this will be totally dissimilar from what
Speaker 1: happens If Biden is running against Trump again in four
Speaker 1: and continues to be uh tagging to the right on
Speaker 1: all the policies that he ran on um and tagging
Speaker 1: to the center, just like wealth humping traditional d NC democrat,
Speaker 1: He's going to face diminished support because he's you know
Speaker 1: there there's that bait and switch that I think people
Speaker 1: uh in power are accustomed to. But I think the
Speaker 1: the majority of people have kind of run out of
Speaker 1: patients on like they're They're like, no, that's that's not
Speaker 1: going to work for us anymore. Um. Yeah, there's a
Speaker 1: literal pandemic. And Trump has given a more money than
Speaker 1: Joe Biden has ours to it seems like. And it's
Speaker 1: like there's just the material nature of it. You can't
Speaker 1: he he was just he himself. He's right, he's writing
Speaker 1: their attack ads with the stimulus ship that's happening now again,
Speaker 1: Joe Mansion. He's letting Joe mansion, fuck the party up,
Speaker 1: because he's more he's like whatever. For whatever reason, the
Speaker 1: administration is more concerned with like the appearance that things
Speaker 1: are going smoothly like he said they would, rather than
Speaker 1: being like actually taking the momentum from the voting population
Speaker 1: that was like, yeah, get us this ship, and he
Speaker 1: could be like, yo, y'all need a fun Joe mention
Speaker 1: up like fucking Trump used to do. Like what, I
Speaker 1: don't understand He's allowing this to happen. So now we're
Speaker 1: caving on all these fucking important things. And yet to
Speaker 1: your point about the stimulus check, they're setting the bar
Speaker 1: now at eighty thousand per person or one sixty per household.
Speaker 1: That's actually going to benefit twelve million less people than
Speaker 1: Donald fucking Trump, you idiot, Like what the fuck? I
Speaker 1: don't understand how the funk this makes sense? How you
Speaker 1: defend that, How you're gonna campaign on that ship? Hey man,
Speaker 1: I help less people than Donald Trump? Okay, So between me,
Speaker 1: him and me, who do you want to vote for? What?
Speaker 1: It really feels like it is the gamble of like
Speaker 1: like Trump was our our Twitter president and Biden is
Speaker 1: trying to be our CNN president he really the gamble
Speaker 1: is that like mainstream media is going to is going
Speaker 1: to that's enough people who still watch versus like seeing
Speaker 1: the online. No, man, it's both. They've both failed. The
Speaker 1: Democratic Party is an absolute failure. That the media, which
Speaker 1: is mostly it's basically a Democrat part of the Democratic
Speaker 1: apparatus too, is this they've completely failed too, because they're
Speaker 1: they're suffering from the same problems, which is people who
Speaker 1: are so up in weather balloon heights of humanity have
Speaker 1: no idea what the lived experiences for normal people. So
Speaker 1: it's all perverted through this lens where you know things
Speaker 1: are okay, things are not. Maybe we'll half talk about
Speaker 1: how messed up some of the deregulation in Texas is
Speaker 1: while also being like, but I don't know, like it's
Speaker 1: just I think because of that, there's and the pandemic
Speaker 1: has made people many more people realize how bad this
Speaker 1: country is. When you have a party and a media
Speaker 1: apparatus who are not willing to acknowledge what everyone is seeing.
Speaker 1: That's the disconnect is only going to get bigger and
Speaker 1: they're gonna be like, well, who's just not this ship
Speaker 1: because I know if we keep doing this ship, this
Speaker 1: centrist Demo d n C CNN ship. I'm still gonna
Speaker 1: be asked out. So what the I mean, Maybe I'll
Speaker 1: roll with Trump and I'll just i'll you know, pile
Speaker 1: my guns and just physically fight off the races, but
Speaker 1: maybe the policies might intersect with me in a way
Speaker 1: more than what this other ship is. Well, that's where
Speaker 1: fascism comes and it fills the void where the government,
Speaker 1: like a strong man, will come in where it just
Speaker 1: feels like there's this space that the government doesn't taken
Speaker 1: care of you, and there isn't that in the first place.
Speaker 1: That's like this, that's that's how we got it, you know,
Speaker 1: that's how we got Trump the last time, in conjunction
Speaker 1: with other things obviously, but this time around it's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't think Biden would have won if there hadn't
Speaker 1: been a pandemic, honestly stomped out. Yeah, absolutely would have
Speaker 1: got and stomped out. Um. So it's the fact that
Speaker 1: he's screwing this up as bad as he is. It's like,
Speaker 1: is gonna be bad, And if it's not Trump, it's
Speaker 1: gonna be like Marjorie Taylor Green or something like that.
Speaker 1: It's going to be that racist mold pile from the
Speaker 1: bar rescue exactly, and it'll win, It'll beat his ass.
Speaker 1: It's almost like ship like do people have feel like,
Speaker 1: fucking man, we're gonna have to like primary Biden to
Speaker 1: win this, Like you know what I mean, like because
Speaker 1: that's really what what are you gonna do? Because I'm
Speaker 1: telling you leftist progressive look at this and like we
Speaker 1: told you this motherfucker gonna do shit. But this is
Speaker 1: the only thing, the only option we had to not
Speaker 1: have the fascism train and keep going. And yeah, like
Speaker 1: what at what point are people going to be, like, what,
Speaker 1: what's the point of supporting this? They just they're not
Speaker 1: They have no clue what what life is like, and
Speaker 1: they continue to just insult us with these terrible policies.
Speaker 1: The mainstream media that kind of reflects how they're doing
Speaker 1: back to them, is not going to be the people
Speaker 1: to tell them, you know, and they're also not gonna
Speaker 1: be the people to get accurate polling as we've seen, um,
Speaker 1: so they'll think they're doing fun. Yeah, Like the cognitive
Speaker 1: dissonance is just getting worse and worse with like what
Speaker 1: they're projecting versus not. I mean, like the inauguration was
Speaker 1: just like this dystopian nightmare to watch happened. Everyone's like,
Speaker 1: we're wearing purple, Like there wasn't a coup that happened
Speaker 1: less than two weeks ago. And you know when they
Speaker 1: had like Tom Hanks hosts like the big after party thing,
Speaker 1: I almost lost my goddamn mind. I was like, he's
Speaker 1: like the number one celebrity that Q and On thinks
Speaker 1: is like into adrenea chrome. Can we not just be
Speaker 1: like running a victory lap around these people who are
Speaker 1: number one? I wasn't aware. He's like, yeah, he's like
Speaker 1: their number one celebrity that thinks it's like downing adrenea chrome.
Speaker 1: So it's just there's just so many just like weird,
Speaker 1: like you haven't won anything. You technically won an election,
Speaker 1: but only because of the pandemic, Like why aren't you
Speaker 1: feeling the humility of that. It's terrifying because it's going
Speaker 1: to lead to something worse. Yeah, Um, alright, well let's
Speaker 1: talk about police reform, where uh the House is looking
Speaker 1: to make some incremental progress but still some progress. Only
Speaker 1: lost two centrist Democrats, which was not enough to defeat it,
Speaker 1: especially because uh, a Republican actually voted for this police
Speaker 1: reform bill. All right, Lands Gooden from Texas, come on
Speaker 1: down and get your woke warrior jersey, and we're gonna
Speaker 1: hang it from the raptors for voting for the George
Speaker 1: Floyd Policing Act on accident. I mean, like, the whole
Speaker 1: story is so funny because he pushed it on accident,
Speaker 1: and he was so fucking shook that he voted for
Speaker 1: this thing because he didn't want he didn't want people
Speaker 1: to think he was one of these soul havers. Uh.
Speaker 1: He went on a fucking pr campus. So he said, quote,
Speaker 1: I accidentally pressed the wrong voting button and I really
Speaker 1: lies it too late. This isn't a tweet that he deleted.
Speaker 1: This is Wednesday night. I have changed the official record
Speaker 1: to deflect reflect my opposition to the partisan George Flood
Speaker 1: Policing Act. It sounds so bad when you have to
Speaker 1: come out here and say it like this. Then he
Speaker 1: goes on to say, um, you know he was declaring
Speaker 1: that of course he wouldn't support the quote radical left
Speaker 1: anti police bill. Oh honey, that was not a radical
Speaker 1: left anti police. Have no idea what that looks like.
Speaker 1: That's why it's so funny to me that you're so
Speaker 1: up in arms that they're saying they were going to
Speaker 1: ban choke holds and create a registry for police who
Speaker 1: have been fired already from misconduct. Yeah, so other things too,
Speaker 1: I mean, like, yeah, making it easier for d o
Speaker 1: J to investigate police shootings. But yes, great, but there
Speaker 1: are so many other things that could have been done. Yeah, look,
Speaker 1: but you know what do we expect? We got the
Speaker 1: twenty dollar freezer lady, and fucking the whole crew up there,
Speaker 1: who you know, the only like black person they know,
Speaker 1: it's like Eddie Murphy, So you know, the what the
Speaker 1: fuck don't they? They have two buttons, right, they have
Speaker 1: a YEA or an A button is complicated, Yeah, it
Speaker 1: is difficult. Maybe he could go with like a green
Speaker 1: and red system, perhaps put a post it next to it.
Speaker 1: I don't really understand how you mess this up. It
Speaker 1: should just I think they should just make it easier.
Speaker 1: One button is a of like a nice stock photo
Speaker 1: of a white, waspy family, and the other one is
Speaker 1: a picture of people of color or marginalized people, and
Speaker 1: then they know they'll never hit the button for that group. Yeah,
Speaker 1: just just simplify for them. Yep, yep, yep, bing bing
Speaker 1: bing bing bing. This is what we want. Yeah, just
Speaker 1: a family of a picture of a black family smiling,
Speaker 1: just like no black joy. Get it out of here.
Speaker 1: Absolutely not. But he's like, wait, do I want this
Speaker 1: or what are It's too complicated, Just everything's so hard.
Speaker 1: It's almost like I shouldn't be in Congress because I'm
Speaker 1: in moron. And do we take him at his word
Speaker 1: that he did it accidentally and there what he didn't
Speaker 1: have like a momentary crisis of the soul that caused
Speaker 1: him to do the right I'm sure it's a complete accident.
Speaker 1: Because this this dude probably gets a lot of money
Speaker 1: from police unions and stuff like that. So I think
Speaker 1: that's more of what he is upset about than anything else.
Speaker 1: It's like he might have lost some funding about that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and you know, great, it passed the House, but don't worry,
Speaker 1: it's going to the Senate where it can be destroyed
Speaker 1: by the filibuster. So you know, yeah, just put a
Speaker 1: pause on everything because they're not you know, they can
Speaker 1: get rid of it again. I'm not seeing the issue
Speaker 1: here with getting rid of the filibuster because it doesn't
Speaker 1: doesn't that we know what the right does either way
Speaker 1: with or without it, like they're going to do their
Speaker 1: ships will be like, but it'll make it easy. Oh
Speaker 1: so that's going to be at the expense of improving
Speaker 1: things for people, right now, go off, go off, Chuck,
Speaker 1: go off, honey. Yeah. Has there ever been like a
Speaker 1: big vote that swung on somebody accidentally hitting the wrong button?
Speaker 1: Is that a thing that happens. I don't even know.
Speaker 1: I mean, I would love for that to have happened,
Speaker 1: but I don't know. It's hard to know. Yeah, not
Speaker 1: that I know of. I'm sure Like when they were counting,
Speaker 1: like when they were doing the roll call for the vote,
Speaker 1: like someone like I'm surprised and said, like, hold on, Lance,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Yes, for the George Floyd Policing bill. Oh god,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Runs out of the bathroom, pulling
Speaker 1: his pants out. Yeah. Um, I was just in there
Speaker 1: with my pants down. I wasn't even don't even go
Speaker 1: to the bathroom. I was just doing one of those
Speaker 1: dolls exactly the bill. As Myles mentioned, will parts of
Speaker 1: the bill will band choke holds, which is the physical
Speaker 1: restraint that led to George Floyd's death, created National Registry
Speaker 1: of Officers who have been fired from misconduct, bolster the
Speaker 1: Justice Department's ability to investigate policing malpractice. Uh, and prohibit
Speaker 1: racial and discriminatory profiling. All things that I thought had
Speaker 1: been bills for. You know that that should have been
Speaker 1: common sense, Uh, parts of American law for decades now. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and not real quick. I just want to shout out
Speaker 1: that Reps Jared Golden and Ron Kind from Maine in
Speaker 1: Wisconsin were the Democrats that voted against it. So he
Speaker 1: voted for it, and those are the two that should
Speaker 1: be primary the funk out of this place if you
Speaker 1: live anywhere near those areas. Um, all right, let's talk
Speaker 1: about Q Shaman. Uh. He comes and goes, doesn't he?
Speaker 1: He does as he as he pleases. I mean his
Speaker 1: mom's like main argument was the door was open, Yes,
Speaker 1: that's it. So has it got knocked in? Right? I
Speaker 1: mean they how is he supposed to know the doors open?
Speaker 1: They're just waiting for him to come. Uh. So he
Speaker 1: makes these criminals so fucking lazy and kisses me off.
Speaker 1: The door was open? The fuck? That's because you think
Speaker 1: you can say that ship fine, but you've been gassed
Speaker 1: up by society the lead. You believe that that is
Speaker 1: a valid defense, so clean, I'll go off. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: like the affluenza defense, but like just expanded to everyone.
Speaker 1: It's like a Norman Rockwell painting where it's like, oh,
Speaker 1: my child accidentally went into the doctor's office, but it's like,
Speaker 1: my baby actually stormed the capital. Are you sorry about this?
Speaker 1: It's just it's just a bit of Americana for you.
Speaker 1: So he is facing twenty years for a Senate prayer service,
Speaker 1: I think, is how he would describe it. Um and
Speaker 1: CBS is giving him an interview to explain himself. This
Speaker 1: is why Trump's gonna win next time if Trump lives
Speaker 1: for four years. This kind of ship because the media
Speaker 1: is already like, oh well, we can't lose the ratings
Speaker 1: of all the trumpy stuff. Let's take a second to
Speaker 1: humanized face paint screamer really quick. It's so great too
Speaker 1: because of all the Black Lives Matters activists. They gave
Speaker 1: full interviews too over the summer. It's really great. I
Speaker 1: remember when in the midst of it all the amount
Speaker 1: of journalists that were in and amongst the activists and protesters,
Speaker 1: asking what it was they were here fighting for versus
Speaker 1: going seven thousand yards away and going I think they're
Speaker 1: throwing fire bombs now fuck off anyway, are the same.
Speaker 1: But see, but I'm saying, but these are the things too.
Speaker 1: Back to the other thing that a lot of people
Speaker 1: are seeing, just how fucking lame even the media is
Speaker 1: with ship like that, and like like who the who
Speaker 1: the funk are y'all anymore? Like I don't even like
Speaker 1: fun all this anyway. So CBS this morning running the
Speaker 1: sick assid interview with Ku Shaman and the clips you know,
Speaker 1: starts off being like, you know, fam, we think you
Speaker 1: attacked the nation. And he's just gonna go and let
Speaker 1: you know why this has all just been blown out
Speaker 1: of proportion. Your actions on January six were an attack
Speaker 1: on the country. Do you understand that you're not man?
Speaker 1: My actions were not an attack on this country. That
Speaker 1: is incorrect, that is inaccurate entirely. How would you describe them?
Speaker 1: My actions personally on January six, my actions on January six,
Speaker 1: how would I describe them? Well? I sing a song
Speaker 1: and that's a part of shamanism. It's about creating positive
Speaker 1: vibrations in a sacred chamber. I also stop people from
Speaker 1: stealing and vandalizing that sacred space the Senate. Okay, I
Speaker 1: actually stop somebody from stealing muffins out of the the
Speaker 1: brake room. I also stop stop the count. If I
Speaker 1: was a lawyer, I would say, we've got thank you.
Speaker 1: You see my client as an upstanding gentleman. He's all
Speaker 1: he does is deal in vibrations and is a protector
Speaker 1: of loose muffins. He comes in with with big sovereign
Speaker 1: citizen energy at first, where like he sounds like one
Speaker 1: of those dudes who's like at the court being like,
Speaker 1: you cannot chase me, sir, you can kind entertained against
Speaker 1: my will, this is against the constitution, And then like
Speaker 1: it's taste and uh pissy himself. Um. But then I
Speaker 1: love the just straight up asking the question back to
Speaker 1: the question or while you kind of uh Stalford time,
Speaker 1: even though you've been in jail, you should have been
Speaker 1: able to prepare for a question of how would you
Speaker 1: describe what you were doing that day? I should be like,
Speaker 1: how would how would I describe me? Let me describe
Speaker 1: like a description. Well, we'll cut around like eight thirty
Speaker 1: in the morning, I did brush my teeth in the morning. Um,
Speaker 1: I flost as well, and m my breakfast included like
Speaker 1: a banana, And then um I took the I looked
Speaker 1: at the metro schedule. Well, no, no no, I feel like
Speaker 1: you're how would you describe entering the capital violently screaming
Speaker 1: with a group of other insurrectionists? How would I describe?
Speaker 1: How would screaming? But you know what's funny? Then then
Speaker 1: CBS lets them get a way with that ship, Like
Speaker 1: now go like how would you describe it? You act
Speaker 1: like you're talking to some like political dissident somewhere fresh,
Speaker 1: and let's shut down show the footage, be like this
Speaker 1: is what you did. Also, it's that day I remember
Speaker 1: watching Um, I was watching somebody that was streaming on Twitch.
Speaker 1: They were going to all a bunch of the twitch
Speaker 1: streams from like the insurrections that were there and that,
Speaker 1: and like after he would came he came outside and
Speaker 1: he was just like high fiving people and just having
Speaker 1: a fun time. And I'm like, this footage exists. Like
Speaker 1: if CBS, like if these like journalists like weren't as
Speaker 1: lazy as they were, they would go and like find
Speaker 1: the real footage of like what these people were doing
Speaker 1: and be like hey, here's actually a clip of you
Speaker 1: doing that. Here's all of this stuff, like put it
Speaker 1: in his face. These people should have a book literally
Speaker 1: slammed in their fucking face. It's insane that this is
Speaker 1: they're letting this happen. The new new term book stomped,
Speaker 1: where the weight of the legal books just stomp your
Speaker 1: ass out for justice. But you know, this is America,
Speaker 1: so who knows what will happen. But the thing is,
Speaker 1: you know, everyone's like, why would his lawyer let him
Speaker 1: do this before his trial? This ship is so weird,
Speaker 1: and the the lawyers like, we gotta let people see
Speaker 1: this guy, you know what I mean? And you know
Speaker 1: what they did exactly that, you know what I mean
Speaker 1: by not pressing him, by not just like rhetorically cornering
Speaker 1: him constantly being like, oh so that's what you thought.
Speaker 1: Oh interesting, don't just let that ship rock like that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you're a journalists pushed back on the truth, you know,
Speaker 1: you know, find find it right. The muffins steeling is
Speaker 1: good though, because I mean that that is one of
Speaker 1: the most important things to Americans is the prevention of
Speaker 1: muffin theft. So he's aligning himself with that. But yeah,
Speaker 1: myles to your point, the like, that's just saying, well,
Speaker 1: America's white supremacist country and he is a white person,
Speaker 1: so we will let them see him and that will
Speaker 1: make them like him better. And that's what he's At
Speaker 1: the very end of end of his interview, he said,
Speaker 1: see me, see me. I mean, he's like, I'm not
Speaker 1: a violent man, the one of the you know. But
Speaker 1: this is how this is. This is it, y'all. This
Speaker 1: is it like the we're we have a were held
Speaker 1: housetage by an improviser from Arizona, um that's going on,
Speaker 1: and his mom uh is in there saying that he
Speaker 1: you know, should open yeah, the open door thing, and
Speaker 1: just that he deserves another chance, and I mean it's
Speaker 1: basically given. Yeah. It's a like the his defense could
Speaker 1: have organized this interview, and all that does is arms
Speaker 1: stupid ass supporters of this guy really dumb talking points
Speaker 1: to then infect their groups with being like, well, you know,
Speaker 1: the door was open, and it sounded like he was
Speaker 1: just there and he was praying like he wasn't one
Speaker 1: of the people like beat a copper and you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, And this is how this ship goes
Speaker 1: because you just let that go uncontested, and now for
Speaker 1: sure have they already believe in like false flagships so
Speaker 1: much to people just like, no, they left the door open.
Speaker 1: They try to trap us with this and this is
Speaker 1: like part of the great Awakening. And but then like,
Speaker 1: but then you show him clips where the people are like,
Speaker 1: but it was me, I am not anti, I am
Speaker 1: the one, and like you had other people too, like
Speaker 1: is this whole that whole you know, paid at crisis
Speaker 1: actorship was going on. But then they juxtaposed that was
Speaker 1: so many people Like I hate that people are trying
Speaker 1: to say what we did that day was, but it
Speaker 1: was the vibes your honor defense been used in a
Speaker 1: federal court before because the specific mention of like the
Speaker 1: vibrations and energy was pretty pretty. I mean, that's that's
Speaker 1: that's key to his shamanism, right right, right, right, yeah.
Speaker 1: So I'm excited to see what crystals he brings into
Speaker 1: court with him. Um, it's going to be interesting to
Speaker 1: his lawyer is a crystal. I hope that he wears
Speaker 1: his suit but also his buffalo helmet to the courtroom.
Speaker 1: He probably will. He's an asshole. Unfortunately, it's evidence, I think,
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, I mean he could construct construct one.
Speaker 1: What if he builds up out of his prison toilet
Speaker 1: right into um And interestingly, uh, the CBS has chosen
Speaker 1: not to interview somebody who would probably be a fairer
Speaker 1: representation of the people who were there that day. Uh.
Speaker 1: And that is Big Oh Richard Big Oh Barnet, the
Speaker 1: dude who was photographed with his feet up on Nancy
Speaker 1: Pelosi's desk and is an avowed white supremacist and white nationalist.
Speaker 1: And uh, he's he's got some interesting defenses as well. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he had interesting defenses for huge energy. He took into
Speaker 1: one six. You know, he he said he was ready
Speaker 1: to die a violent death prior to January six, like
Speaker 1: and yeah, saying I'm a white Nashalist, I'm I'll do
Speaker 1: this ship. And you know, it's finding it a little
Speaker 1: bit harder to be released. You know, we've seen a
Speaker 1: lot of other people be released because it was like
Speaker 1: lower level stuff or you know, they were the prosecution
Speaker 1: or judge deemed them to not be a violent threat
Speaker 1: and would come back, so they were released. This guy,
Speaker 1: he it's a little hard to say the same when
Speaker 1: you said you were you were ready to die, Like
Speaker 1: the fucking bag debut Biggie album on top of it
Speaker 1: around modeling himself after Biggie. His nickname is big Oh,
Speaker 1: and he bom bom bom bomp big big Oh shit.
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, the sky is a limit, so he is,
Speaker 1: you know, he was also he had a stun gun
Speaker 1: on the premises. He fucking even stole a letter from
Speaker 1: Nancy Pelosi's desk, and they're like, you're you're violating, bro,
Speaker 1: Like you can't even don't even ask to be released
Speaker 1: right now. And so now he's going on saying I
Speaker 1: did not steal it. I bled on it because they
Speaker 1: were amazing me and I couldn't fucking see. So I
Speaker 1: figured I'm in her office. I got blood on her office.
Speaker 1: I put a quarter on her desk, even though she
Speaker 1: ain't fucking worth it, uh, And I left her a
Speaker 1: note on her desk that says Nancy big O was here, bitch.
Speaker 1: That's what he told the fucking uh investigators. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he's out here being like, why won't they let me out?
Speaker 1: So at his last hearing, he's screaming like I need
Speaker 1: to get let out. He's saying ship like quote, they're
Speaker 1: dragging this out, They're letting everyone else out it's not fair.
Speaker 1: This has been a bunch of crap. Yeah, this is
Speaker 1: his defense right now. He can't even get through a
Speaker 1: sentence without like veering into just like hateful, like calling
Speaker 1: people bitch and uh, it's just fucking elder here. But
Speaker 1: you know, honestly, again, just like Hugh Ku Shaman, that
Speaker 1: defense might work you know, for him too, like I
Speaker 1: left a quarter and also this is just to be honest,
Speaker 1: your honor, it's not fair what's happening to me? You
Speaker 1: know what, You're right there, And it goes back to
Speaker 1: what we're saying the top of the show where it's
Speaker 1: also like if the Dems like seemed like they were
Speaker 1: doing anything to material help anybody, and like they weren't
Speaker 1: just like pretending like this didn't happen at all, and
Speaker 1: like I just wanted to admit, like where does this
Speaker 1: rage come from? Where did this come from? You know,
Speaker 1: like and you're just you know, if this didn't scare
Speaker 1: them into wanting to actually do something for the people,
Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, I mean they were coming to
Speaker 1: hang Mike Pence and chanting hang Mike Pence. And he's
Speaker 1: still ad here being like the election was stolen because
Speaker 1: he knows his ass is not going to be on
Speaker 1: the ticket when Trump runs in, so he's trying to
Speaker 1: make nice. Like Nancy Pelosa, this ship in your office,
Speaker 1: Like can you just like make sure people have checks? Jesus?
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm so like, I'm really disappointed in her
Speaker 1: as like you know, I would I would think that
Speaker 1: a wealthy woman of means like her, the second her
Speaker 1: life was ever put in danger by a group of
Speaker 1: rabble rousers, she would be calling the funk out the cops,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, where's that big white
Speaker 1: woman energy, Nancy. I was counting on that to protect
Speaker 1: us the other people. Like I was like, well, here
Speaker 1: is our white champion who will deploy their whiteness against whiteness,
Speaker 1: and whiteness will do battle on the courts of DC.
Speaker 1: But yeah, speak to the manager of white supremacy, Nancy.
Speaker 1: This is your moment to go full Karen. You know.
Speaker 1: And the other thing too, is like for the with
Speaker 1: the l Pen story too, for all this ship that
Speaker 1: this party say other Republicans are an existential threat. They're
Speaker 1: a clear threat. Y'all are not acting like it, just
Speaker 1: like you said, Just like half the other ship you
Speaker 1: say is a problem like white supremacy and over policing
Speaker 1: and income in yeah, yeah, don't mean any of this
Speaker 1: ship because I'm I'm not. We're not seeing a fucking
Speaker 1: thing that indicates it's real to you now. It's all
Speaker 1: just talk and like weird pomp and circumstance for the
Speaker 1: photo the photo op that shows the white supremacy was beaten,
Speaker 1: but none of the actual work that needs to happen
Speaker 1: is happening whatsoever. Yeah, I mean what they're trying to
Speaker 1: do here and probably will end up doing in different terms,
Speaker 1: but they're just mounting the Like there was that a
Speaker 1: dude who a Texas teen who was driving drunk and
Speaker 1: killed four pedestrians injured several others, and his defense was
Speaker 1: affluenza was like, you know, well he's been his perception
Speaker 1: has been hampered by just everything being given to him
Speaker 1: because he's like a wealthy kid. And this is just
Speaker 1: like the white supremacy version of that, where it's just like,
Speaker 1: what the hell is going on here? How's it like
Speaker 1: you changed the rules on the mid game is essentially
Speaker 1: like it seems like what both defenses meant amount to,
Speaker 1: like the combination of stun gun and in her office
Speaker 1: when like they were specifically looking to abduct people, like
Speaker 1: that's that's scary. That is absolutely scared. Well, just shows
Speaker 1: you how blinding privileged can like truly actually be to
Speaker 1: the truth of a situation. And it's like and how
Speaker 1: it also just like you know, is not good for
Speaker 1: that person too. It's like, oh, you live in a
Speaker 1: reality that doesn't exist, man, like what and for her
Speaker 1: like Yeah. The other thing too is at a certain point,
Speaker 1: your privilege has you thinking you can't be touched by
Speaker 1: any of the ship when it's a very thin string
Speaker 1: that's holding us all up, you know what I mean,
Speaker 1: and exactly the risks of like the lack I think
Speaker 1: that's the other thing too, is like there's a hubris
Speaker 1: to this lack of inaction that also pisces me off.
Speaker 1: And I think most people who are in the real
Speaker 1: world who see the existential threats that exist for people
Speaker 1: and people like that's for that's for the America's losers.
Speaker 1: And I'm I'm in this other part of town where
Speaker 1: they can storm the Capitol, knock my door down and
Speaker 1: put their feet on my desk, leave me a quarter
Speaker 1: and say I'll be back, bitch. Oh but that's fine.
Speaker 1: That was just one time. Yeah, that won't happen again. Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, let's take a quick break and we'll be
Speaker 1: right back and talk about Megan and Oprah. And we're back,
Speaker 1: and the Oprah Megan interview is coming up this weekend.
Speaker 1: Megan Markle, the Duchess of Something. Yeah, I don't. I'm
Speaker 1: not sure. I don't. I don't have all these titles
Speaker 1: shrug emoji, I don't know. Yeah, the Duke of who
Speaker 1: gives a fuck? Where? You know. One of the few
Speaker 1: times I actually feel American is whenever like royals come
Speaker 1: up and I'm just like, man, that ship right right,
Speaker 1: I want to be at a monster truck anytime people
Speaker 1: talk about the Royal pat on his ship. Yeah exactly.
Speaker 1: It was like, I don't believe in this, but in
Speaker 1: this moment, fuck you. I mean, this whole thing is messy.
Speaker 1: It seems like the only and like, and I don't.
Speaker 1: I've not really been up on like all of the
Speaker 1: back and forth. I'm like most people I know that
Speaker 1: at you know, they are getting the funk out of
Speaker 1: royal life because they're not into it, Like it's too formal.
Speaker 1: There's all this protocol for Harry. He firsthand knows what
Speaker 1: a regular person getting caught up in the royal family
Speaker 1: can do to you through his mother, so he's like,
Speaker 1: I don't want anything, like honestly, I don't want any
Speaker 1: of this ship. Also, his uncle's a pedophile and they're
Speaker 1: not doing anything about it. So I could see being
Speaker 1: like they are kids to be fair brandy. They are,
Speaker 1: and I will get to that later on in the story.
Speaker 1: They are absolutely punishing Prince Andrew and they're very privileged way.
Speaker 1: So you know, there's been a lot of like bomb
Speaker 1: throwing from the royals via tabloids trying like Megan's a
Speaker 1: bit I think she was smoking krills back in OH
Speaker 1: three or something. You know, like there's all kinds of weird,
Speaker 1: just fucked up ship. And and that only sort of
Speaker 1: started escalating and escalating last week or the week before
Speaker 1: Harry was on court and kind of doing it's like yo,
Speaker 1: I'm trying to you know, not do this anymore, and
Speaker 1: sort of began them sort of talking publicly about like yo,
Speaker 1: we're not working with this anymore. Then everyone's like this
Speaker 1: Oprah interview is going to happen, and everyone was just like, Okay,
Speaker 1: this could be real, real, real good. But the Royals
Speaker 1: apparently were begging Harry to not let this air because
Speaker 1: Grandpa Phil was sick and that fell on deaf ears
Speaker 1: or whatever, because you know, the chip is gonna air.
Speaker 1: But then the British press started putting out a story
Speaker 1: that there would be an investigation into Megan's bullying of
Speaker 1: staff during her limited time there, so everyone's like, what
Speaker 1: the fuck. And this was like literally coming right after hearing,
Speaker 1: like they're saying, don't air it. Okay, they're gonna air it. Fine,
Speaker 1: here's this. She was a bully ass motherfucker, so we're
Speaker 1: gonna look into that. And then you know, the Times,
Speaker 1: even of London, they were like, yes, they said quote
Speaker 1: sources believe the public should have insight into their side
Speaker 1: of the story before watching the couple's much publicized interview
Speaker 1: with Winfrey. So then CBS drops a clip on Thursday
Speaker 1: that is basically posterizing the Royals where Megan is talking
Speaker 1: about how there is an active campaign from them to
Speaker 1: smear her and this was recorded before this ship dropped,
Speaker 1: so it feels even more powerful. And I'm just gonna
Speaker 1: play this clip because they way they fucking like the
Speaker 1: sound design, everything you think it was a UFC fight
Speaker 1: your truth today, I don't know how they could expect
Speaker 1: that after all of this time, we would still just
Speaker 1: be silent. If there is an active role that the
Speaker 1: firm is playing in perpetuating falsehoods about us, and if
Speaker 1: that comes with risk of losing things, I mean there's
Speaker 1: a lot that's been lost already. Wow, it's so sense firm.
Speaker 1: So that's what I was in a crime family. I
Speaker 1: was like, what does nas crazy and Foxy Brown have
Speaker 1: to do with this? Because I'm talking firm. I mean,
Speaker 1: phone Tap is a classic track, though let's not get
Speaker 1: that fucked up. But anyway, apparently the this is what
Speaker 1: they're saying. There's the author about the firm, the troubled
Speaker 1: life of the House of windsor the blurberreas, however you
Speaker 1: look at it. The Royal family is a big business,
Speaker 1: though one with more ups and downs in the stock market.
Speaker 1: Prince Philip calls it the firm, and all the royal
Speaker 1: executives and their powerful associates are supposed to make every
Speaker 1: effort to avoid even a hint of scandal that could
Speaker 1: diminish the reputation of the family business. So they're like oh,
Speaker 1: and then we find out that there's now there's the firm,
Speaker 1: and then the Queen apparently defined who the core firm is.
Speaker 1: Now who can actually be out here representing the family
Speaker 1: because these people skated, So that's the Queen, Prince Edward,
Speaker 1: uh Sophie, the Countess of Wessex, Kate Middleton, Prince William,
Speaker 1: Prince Charles, Camilla, and Princess Anne but not sex Crim,
Speaker 1: not Sexcrim Andrew and Harry and Meghan. They're out and
Speaker 1: the kids are too young, so it's gonna be wild.
Speaker 1: I just, I just I'm curious because the royals aren't
Speaker 1: helping their cause to try and be like yo, maybe
Speaker 1: this should have blow over by like escalating and it's
Speaker 1: gonna be a lot of more interest now. But after
Speaker 1: that line, I'm like, what Megan say something wild? Now? Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's so crazy because it really feels like they're really
Speaker 1: trying to make Harry and Megan happen in America and
Speaker 1: we already have the Obamas as our royal family, you know,
Speaker 1: like and also like there boring, they're not charming, like
Speaker 1: I mean, they're what are they gonna do? Like are
Speaker 1: they going to start a podcast? Like the Royal ex
Speaker 1: Royals podcast, it's going to be ship. I'm excited Harry
Speaker 1: and me. Yeah, I'm excited for Harry to be doing
Speaker 1: uh tushy ads. It's going to be great. Um. The
Speaker 1: Royal bum is clean exactly, and that's where this is
Speaker 1: all heading. It's just like they're not stop trying to
Speaker 1: make yeah, but making Marco happen in the United States,
Speaker 1: it's not going to happen. She's like, like like, does she
Speaker 1: even want to beat? It sounds like they want to
Speaker 1: be Do they even want that? Don't they just want
Speaker 1: to That's what's so weird to him, Like it's like,
Speaker 1: do you want to be like famous but without the
Speaker 1: responsibility of the Royal Families? Want to be like in
Speaker 1: between like a list celebrity and like a C list
Speaker 1: or just like not just enough Like I can get
Speaker 1: in places, but I don't need the shine. Really yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like what do you want? Because to me, whenever
Speaker 1: people like do this and they they leave or they
Speaker 1: want to move or something, I'm like, don't move to
Speaker 1: l a move, like why are you here? Like I
Speaker 1: just distrust the whole thing because of that where I'm
Speaker 1: just like, no, you could live anywhere you have money,
Speaker 1: you know, just for them to be more I think,
Speaker 1: like relatable or become like, oh, we love them, they
Speaker 1: would need to start like partying and fighting like normal
Speaker 1: people do. Oh sho, I know that fight. I know
Speaker 1: that fight. Harrum, Like that's the kind of ship I
Speaker 1: think would be different because if it's so sanitized, like
Speaker 1: we're past that, like you know, you can just be
Speaker 1: obscure and by yourself. Yeah no, we don't need like
Speaker 1: a prim and proper ex royal couple like we need
Speaker 1: you guys like up in some crazy crazy yes exactly.
Speaker 1: You know, like she's you know, the Mega Marko is
Speaker 1: now just you know, starting a cannabis company and ship,
Speaker 1: and that's what they should do. Royal weed of some
Speaker 1: kind like yeah, my god, the royal the royal weed
Speaker 1: more problematic weed brand than like literal monarchy based colonizer.
Speaker 1: Oh man, yeah, I mean that's I mean, that's honestly
Speaker 1: the direction they're probably heading. I'm always surprised, Like it's
Speaker 1: it's similar to when the Republican Party does something or
Speaker 1: like puts out something that's transparently like just a you know,
Speaker 1: Dr Seuss is being attacked type bullshit. That's like everybody
Speaker 1: can see through that, but there's still a bunch of
Speaker 1: media that will cover it with a straight face like that.
Speaker 1: There is that for the royal family in England for sure.
Speaker 1: Like I'm always surprised by like this, this uh Megan thing,
Speaker 1: like her being a bully will get picked up and
Speaker 1: covered with a straight face fully by by bunch of
Speaker 1: media over there, because it's like such an institution. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and then you know, I mean they're probably rapped by
Speaker 1: c A over here, and then they're going to have
Speaker 1: like their th and that goes back and forth. It's
Speaker 1: like that's the thing that nobody realizes. It's like they
Speaker 1: have agents, like former presidents have agents. It's like that,
Speaker 1: who's actually these are people getting ten percent of you
Speaker 1: know empires? Does the queen have agents? Yeah, you're not
Speaker 1: talented agent? Actually she might be w I think Ari
Speaker 1: Emmanuel was actually repping her. I wouldn't be it wouldn't
Speaker 1: be surprised. Yeah, his dad probably put that deal in
Speaker 1: place when he was a soldier of fortune back in
Speaker 1: the thing, so exactly. Um, all right, let's talk about
Speaker 1: circle ship angles dad soldier of fortune. Yeah really yeah
Speaker 1: yeah yeah yeah, r Ari and um Rom Yeah, their
Speaker 1: their dad was. I think that's like his thing was.
Speaker 1: He was he was like a black Water before black water. Damn.
Speaker 1: Everything's great, everything is going really well, and then you
Speaker 1: can be a guy who you know, Jeremy Piven plays
Speaker 1: later on after Plugs, it's like Lloyd and it's fun.
Speaker 1: One time I was behind Jeremy Piven in a spin
Speaker 1: class and I got a better score than him, so
Speaker 1: I kept checking on him during class. I was like,
Speaker 1: I'm going to beat this motherfucker today. It's pretty fun.
Speaker 1: That's what actually most spin classes higher Jeremy Piven to
Speaker 1: come by and motivate people. That's what he's his main
Speaker 1: source of income these days is Did I then add
Speaker 1: myself when I AMDB as like a spin class extra
Speaker 1: U on an episode of Entourage that existed that but
Speaker 1: didn't have a spin class in it. Absolutely, look, everything's alive, baby.
Speaker 1: All right. Let's talk about this McDonald's minimum wage talking point,
Speaker 1: because it's actually kind of an interesting story that I
Speaker 1: think dives into one of the big problems of the
Speaker 1: United States. So AOC brought it up in a recent tweet,
Speaker 1: pointing out that McDonald's workers in Denmark make twenty two
Speaker 1: dollars an hour plus six weeks of paid vacation. Uh.
Speaker 1: But how much is a big mac six grand? Yeah,
Speaker 1: so this is a big talking point. The for one
Speaker 1: of the conservative rebuttals is, well, that's great because the
Speaker 1: big mac actually cost five fifteen over there and it's
Speaker 1: four eight in the U. S UM. This is based
Speaker 1: on something the economist does that's like just like a
Speaker 1: silly in phographic. They don't like really take it that
Speaker 1: seriously from two thousand fourteen, and if you actually looked
Speaker 1: at look at the updated data, the big mac costs
Speaker 1: like a dollar more in the US. UM. So they're
Speaker 1: big mic drop thing actually is the opposite, right, there's
Speaker 1: also um they they're pointing out the it Denmark doesn't
Speaker 1: have a minimum wage, and so I mean they're they're
Speaker 1: the ones who are you know, making it, like making
Speaker 1: that argument that's not AOC wasn't like their minimum wages
Speaker 1: twenty two dollars. She said that that's what they make
Speaker 1: UM And the reason they're able to do that without
Speaker 1: a federally mandated minimum wage is that they have unions,
Speaker 1: and unions actually work on behalf of the workers. Typically,
Speaker 1: trade unions work to keep wages above twenty dollars UM,
Speaker 1: but there's no federal wage. UM. So USA today was like, so,
Speaker 1: uh three pinocchios for aoc um, but uh so American society. Uh,
Speaker 1: fast food employees make an average of eight ninety an hour.
Speaker 1: Half of them rely on some form of public assistance
Speaker 1: UM and over. And the reason that we don't have
Speaker 1: that as we we just don't have union support um.
Speaker 1: And so the way that this actually came about the
Speaker 1: twenty two dollars McDonald's showed up in Denmark and was like, Uh,
Speaker 1: we're not gonna like deal with these unions fucking union um.
Speaker 1: And so the unions went to work. Uh. Phase Yeah,
Speaker 1: they find out phase they did the funk around part Uh,
Speaker 1: there were strikes, boycott's leaflet campaigns, newspaper coverage, and daily
Speaker 1: demonstrations outside of McDonald's restaurants. UM. Construction workers refused to
Speaker 1: build any new McDonald's brewery workers wouldn't deliver beer because
Speaker 1: ye have beer and McDonald's over there, which is awesome. Uh.
Speaker 1: And Danish graphic artists refused to work on McDonald's advertisements
Speaker 1: and instead made counter advertisements, including one that became iconic
Speaker 1: of a dog taking a piss on the Golden arches, um.
Speaker 1: And so they eventually were like all right, like we'll we'll,
Speaker 1: we'll do we'll be part of the We'll let our
Speaker 1: employees be part of the union. Um. And that's how like,
Speaker 1: that's that's the only way that corporations are brought in
Speaker 1: line with like collectivism their workers. Uh fairly. Yeah, they're
Speaker 1: just I mean, yeah, it's that simple, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, Like this country has just been on a
Speaker 1: steady path of just taking apart, dismantling unions and the
Speaker 1: ability for you know, collective bargaining and trying to advocate
Speaker 1: advocate for the workers to advocate for themselves collectively to
Speaker 1: get the outcomes that they want, like wages that be
Speaker 1: like I have one job and it's fucking tight, uh,
Speaker 1: and I have vacation and I can be a parent
Speaker 1: versus you know what we have now, which is saying like, hey, guys,
Speaker 1: I get it, you're a franchise e. You want to
Speaker 1: make money, like this is the like you can. You
Speaker 1: gotta pay them at least this much and that is
Speaker 1: up to you. Right. Oh yeah, I mean we've got
Speaker 1: Dolly Parton doing you know, five to nine. So as
Speaker 1: a follow up to her nine to five. Just worked
Speaker 1: five hours a day because that's what you need to
Speaker 1: do to be able to actually live in this country. UM.
Speaker 1: It started with the forties right to work laws that
Speaker 1: gave states the power to determine whether workers can be
Speaker 1: required to join a labor union. UH. Then McDonald's UH
Speaker 1: has a has aggressively attempted or has aggressively prevented attempts
Speaker 1: to unionize in the US. In twenty nineteen, several workers
Speaker 1: were fired for trying to unionize. UH. They appealed to
Speaker 1: the National Labor Relations Board, and UH the National Labor
Speaker 1: Relations Board sided with McDonald's. So the things they did
Speaker 1: to crushing ugonization was using employees as moles and meetings,
Speaker 1: circulating names of possible pro union employees, and coaching franchisees
Speaker 1: on how to avoid hiring people who might organize a
Speaker 1: work is UM which is illegal, but it doesn't didn't
Speaker 1: stop them from doing it. UMA starts start shedding dollars
Speaker 1: like that paying people. Yeah, but I mean corporate espionage,
Speaker 1: like all that ship is real, Like that's corporations. The
Speaker 1: devil works hard. Corporations work harder, like they will find
Speaker 1: a way to you know, a spy to you know,
Speaker 1: make it so that people don't feel comfortable taking collective action, yeah,
Speaker 1: which I think, And then so people don't feel comfortable,
Speaker 1: like just in America in general, the tone is, we
Speaker 1: don't want people to feel comfortable getting in touch with
Speaker 1: their power as a collective. Now we're so the lack
Speaker 1: of education around unions and like the history of the
Speaker 1: labor movement in general is just I mean, it's it's
Speaker 1: pathetic how little we're taught in school or in any
Speaker 1: formal formal way about it. I think the closest they'll
Speaker 1: maybe talk about like collectivism like in other books will
Speaker 1: be like the sucking Reddit game, stop robin hood fucking crunch, right,
Speaker 1: and just keep it limited to that, like, see what
Speaker 1: happened there? But I don't think it's happened any other ways.
Speaker 1: I mean I literally remember being in school and then
Speaker 1: being like Eugene Debs also ran for president and then
Speaker 1: he was put in jail. But what did you do there?
Speaker 1: Keep going? But but then this other guy one instead,
Speaker 1: it's fine, and that guy just stayed in jail for
Speaker 1: a long time and he was powerful, so he's more interesting, yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: And as I was just like remember being like, wait,
Speaker 1: who what happened to that guy? Right? Wait? Is labor
Speaker 1: day like about giving birth or something? I don't get that? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Okay cool. Back in back in l A, we call
Speaker 1: a Flavor Day where you go to thirty one Flavors
Speaker 1: and get any ice cream you want? Can we rebrand
Speaker 1: labor Day? Not? I feel uncomfortable flavor flavor Day? Labor Labe?
Speaker 1: Where's labor Labe? The fucking mascot for liver fucking unions?
Speaker 1: Socialist flavor flav I love this? Maybe this is how
Speaker 1: we reached the kids. Did we just create a TikTok here? Remember?
Speaker 1: Remember Public Enemy? That's the old Remember the two thousand
Speaker 1: five show Flavor of Love? You guys, remember Flavor of Love? Right?
