Speaker 1: do what now? And I'm like, we're gonna know you
Speaker 1: got wet, Harry, Oh ship, what did you say? Get wet?
Speaker 1: Is that smoke angel l dust? Oh my god? Do
Speaker 1: you think the Royals haven't smoked angel dust? That's true.
Speaker 1: They probably invented that and they're like naive. One of
Speaker 1: the main side of the smoky angel dust is having
Speaker 1: like forty corgis. That's true, Prince Charles is, Yeah, I
Speaker 1: can only imagine how they're like, I need my angels dust.
Speaker 1: People do every day. It's a great tell that you're
Speaker 1: an undercover cup. But angels dust, I'm sorry? Are you
Speaker 1: putting a possessive s on the end of that? My man?
Speaker 1: Where are you from? I'm from England, My good sir.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think about fancy name for bath salts
Speaker 1: right now, but I can't think of anything. Ah yes,
Speaker 1: bathing bathing salts, bathing salts. They're hurry, bring my bathing
Speaker 1: salts and my angels dust. But you think those Royals, man,
Speaker 1: they got all day, every day off for like she's
Speaker 1: nineties six, She's had every day off, so you know,
Speaker 1: imagine she must be who knows putting hats on those
Speaker 1: corky smoking angel dust like yeah, I mean like being
Speaker 1: like unemployed for a long time can put you in
Speaker 1: like a weird you don't you get weird hobbies? And
Speaker 1: but imagine if you had them of the British and
Speaker 1: Crown behind it. I bet you're actually secret friends with
Speaker 1: King Charles on like one of those mud larking probably YouTube.
Speaker 1: The only difference between me and them is that they
Speaker 1: get their cold blue brew handled handed to them. They
Speaker 1: don't have to pour it right exactly. That's the only
Speaker 1: difference I do see. Like King Charles is also in
Speaker 1: the mud larking, and then he tells Chris, He's like,
Speaker 1: we've done it, mate, I can finally stop the Thames
Speaker 1: and we can mud lark for days. I'm gonna damn
Speaker 1: it up, you damn right. Do you remember that children's
Speaker 1: book called the Seven Chinese Brothers? Does anyone remember that
Speaker 1: where the guys swallowed the ocean? A lot of my
Speaker 1: archaeology interests come from that book, and I could place
Speaker 1: it like I remember reading that book and that kid
Speaker 1: in the book swallowed the ocean. I don't know why
Speaker 1: I think it was so they could get the fish
Speaker 1: without without fishing, you know, because they could just drain
Speaker 1: the ocean and like one of the Chinese brothers could
Speaker 1: swallow the ocean. That was one of his tricks. Each
Speaker 1: one had like a skill. But then there was some
Speaker 1: moral to the story, like he ended up swallowing the
Speaker 1: ocean or dying or something like there's some reason where
Speaker 1: it's like you have to fish normal, you can't swallow
Speaker 1: the ocean. Like there was a moral. I don't know
Speaker 1: what the moral of it was, but I when he
Speaker 1: drained the ocean. Plus, I'm sure that this is like,
Speaker 1: you know, probably racist in some way. The seven Chinese
Speaker 1: brothers already like remember, like it's gotta have some kind
Speaker 1: of problem. But I don't know. But anyway, remember the
Speaker 1: illustrations are a little like, oh yeah, it's definitely not right. No,
Speaker 1: it seems like there's an updated version that is less intensive.
Speaker 1: But so anyway, said one of the Chinese brothers swallows
Speaker 1: the ocean, and the other brothers go in and get
Speaker 1: the fish. I think it was the idea. But in
Speaker 1: the illustration you could see all the sunken ships, and
Speaker 1: I used to think, oh my god, you could just
Speaker 1: go in there and get the treasure chests, walk up
Speaker 1: to him basically, and I tried to make my brother
Speaker 1: swallow the ocean. Yeah, any to the hospital, yea, yeah, totally. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: we bat. I realized people talk about video games that
Speaker 1: those books back then and giving you some bad ideas too.
Speaker 1: They're bad ideas all around us. You just need to
Speaker 1: know where to look anyway. Yeah, so that you're right,
Speaker 1: they would. Damn the goddamn tams. They would. They'd be like,
Speaker 1: I'd like to mudlark today and blow something worn and
Speaker 1: then like twelve dudes that have to like pull some
Speaker 1: lever and a bunch. No, I want them to swallow it.
Speaker 1: I want to talk more about the Royals. Yeah, all right, Well,
Speaker 1: I mean we're gonna get to know you a little
Speaker 1: bit better. A couple of things we're talking about. We're
Speaker 1: gonna talk about rail workers getting ready to strike and
Speaker 1: how the business media is covering that story. And then
Speaker 1: we got a couple of Royals things. We've got. The
Speaker 1: Queen's funeral is already a ship show. Just lots of
Speaker 1: people surgeries and being canceled, people uh, you know, food
Speaker 1: pantries being closed for the hungry. It is truly just
Speaker 1: like a touchdown dance for privilege. It is like everything. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're like, not only will we light all the money
Speaker 1: on fire that you've been giving us for years and
Speaker 1: just a lavish display of wealth while like just rolling
Speaker 1: this old lady's dead body down the street, but we're
Speaker 1: we're also going to make it so you can't do
Speaker 1: anything but watch us do that, including I have a
Speaker 1: have a life and keep living, so we'll talk about that.
Speaker 1: I've been doing a bit of a dive ever since
Speaker 1: I've seen those, like a couple of clips of King
Speaker 1: Charles just being such a baby, baby baby every time
Speaker 1: these damn these blasted sticking every time, these stinking things
Speaker 1: about a pen not working the way he wanted it to. Anyways,
Speaker 1: it reminded me of this article I reashed from a
Speaker 1: few years back. Those a review of a book by
Speaker 1: a royalist, and the context is like she really is
Speaker 1: like rooting for him, but like you could just the
Speaker 1: whole book, you could just tell she like really hates
Speaker 1: just like he's this guy's the fucking worst. So there's
Speaker 1: just some great details in there that we might get
Speaker 1: to royalists whatever the anymore. Yeah, I know it's crown
Speaker 1: they have. Before we get to any of that ship though, Chris,
Speaker 1: we like to ask our guest, what is something from
Speaker 1: your search history? Well, you know, I feel like a
Speaker 1: lot of pressure at this point, you know, because I've
Speaker 1: been on the show enough that like I basically have
Speaker 1: run out of like actual things I watched, you know
Speaker 1: what I mean, Like I've kind of moved into full
Speaker 1: time mining, you know, abandoned mines. You know, I'm not
Speaker 1: actually mine, but I mean, you know, yeah, thank you,
Speaker 1: thank you, thank you. Miles like a therapy, it's it's
Speaker 1: not my fault, it's not my mom's fault. So I
Speaker 1: was gonna I have one thing to talk about a
Speaker 1: band of mind, but I thought I would just mention
Speaker 1: one thing I have been watching is uh, you know,
Speaker 1: hunting around YouTube. I found this thing, the Coney Island Creek.
Speaker 1: I'm kind of like really into Coney Island. Like when
Speaker 1: I was in New York in June, going to Coney
Speaker 1: Island was like, I seriously, I'm happier in that place
Speaker 1: than anywhere else. And I think it's just simply because
Speaker 1: it's like it's fucking housing projects at the beach. It's
Speaker 1: it's it's it's like it's like democracy the way it's
Speaker 1: supposed to be. It's the fucking melting pot. It's all
Speaker 1: this ship that you you know that America is supposed
Speaker 1: to stand for, but it only stands for like occasionally,
Speaker 1: you know, or like maybe never did. But it's just
Speaker 1: in certain pockets you can get an idea of like
Speaker 1: this is a neat place, Like everybody's a different color.
Speaker 1: Everyone's just doing their thing. They don't give a funk
Speaker 1: what anybody else is doing. I'm studying my lines walking
Speaker 1: down the I was in a play, so I'm studying
Speaker 1: the lines walking down the boardwalk, and you know, and
Speaker 1: there's someone on a fucking I mean, it's hacked to
Speaker 1: say unicycle, but I think, really, you know, that's the
Speaker 1: kind of scene it is. It's like a personality unicycle.
Speaker 1: And then it's a person who's just like yelling into
Speaker 1: their phone about you know, something about someone lost his
Speaker 1: pumas or something, and uh, it's just a And then
Speaker 1: there's just an amusement mark right next to a housing
Speaker 1: project right next to it. I mean, it's just it's
Speaker 1: what America could be to me. And then that scene
Speaker 1: closes with a child being attacked by a puma because
Speaker 1: they weren't talking about their they were talking about I
Speaker 1: don't know why there's there are That is a thing
Speaker 1: that happens a lot in New York City. If you've
Speaker 1: ever in New York, there's always like exotic animals that
Speaker 1: are being discovered in various places. Well, and there's a
Speaker 1: lot of Russian mob out in Brighton Beach and in
Speaker 1: Coney Island area. So I was imagining because there's like
Speaker 1: a lot of like Russian mob kind of looking people,
Speaker 1: and then there's a lot of like, oh, I don't
Speaker 1: know what, just tourists and all kinds of everything. But anyway,
Speaker 1: Russian mob. I was imagining some guy like yelling at
Speaker 1: like his wife where his pumas were. But that's like
Speaker 1: you know that, I have no idea what the Russian
Speaker 1: mob does, IM like, I don't know. I'm not in
Speaker 1: their business. But but anyway, it's just a very diverse
Speaker 1: and and just and then you look over and the
Speaker 1: fucking cyclones going and it's been going since nine seven.
Speaker 1: It's the same fucking cyclone. And I just want to
Speaker 1: metal detect everywhere, you know, hot else that is right
Speaker 1: that is from Island. Have you guys been to Coney Island. Well, no,
Speaker 1: it's weird. It's a place I've romanticized because Stephan Marbury
Speaker 1: has a tattoo that says Coney Island's Finest And I
Speaker 1: always was like, whoa, what a place like movie He
Speaker 1: Got Games exactly like sets their great basketball player. He's
Speaker 1: growing up in Coney Island, like the yeah, yeah, and
Speaker 1: it it gives a lot like Coney Island is a
Speaker 1: character in the movie He Got Game. For sure. I
Speaker 1: went on one of the best dates of my life
Speaker 1: to Coney Island, just went there for a day, rode
Speaker 1: our bikes out there, eat our weight in junk food,
Speaker 1: saw the White Stripes play at the little ballpark out there,
Speaker 1: and uh yeah, that was my wife when we were
Speaker 1: dating a date. But if I go on a date
Speaker 1: like it's good, it's a good place. Yeah. But so,
Speaker 1: the thing I was gonna say was just about the
Speaker 1: search history was the So I've been looking into the
Speaker 1: Coney Island Creek, which is like an inlet that is
Speaker 1: one of the most polluted bodies of water. But they've
Speaker 1: cleaned it a little. But now they're talking about damning
Speaker 1: it because a hurricane whatever it was sandy came through there.
Speaker 1: But if they damn it, then it won't clean itself
Speaker 1: because it's a fucking title. And if they damn it,
Speaker 1: then the tide won't come in and out and it's
Speaker 1: already got you know, it really butts up against like
Speaker 1: like there's like an old shipyard and the remains of
Speaker 1: an old shipyard right up against the back of a
Speaker 1: home depot, you know what I mean. It's that it's
Speaker 1: that like you can go find the nineteenth century right
Speaker 1: next to home depot, and I just find that stuff fascinating.
Speaker 1: Great place for studying mosquitoes. And oh my god, the
Speaker 1: whole I mean for like five hundred, no, not five,
Speaker 1: not even whatever. However, a long, a long time they
Speaker 1: were just dumping, like back in the old days, they
Speaker 1: were just like we'll dump everything in the water and
Speaker 1: then I'll go way. And so it's it's just insane
Speaker 1: where they dumped in there. Like it's like the whole
Speaker 1: bottom of the fucking inlet is just coated with like
Speaker 1: you know, butane or mercury or whatever, not bututane. But
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, like method, I don't know
Speaker 1: what the funk. It is just like they just shoe there,
Speaker 1: like like a hundred years of shoe factories, just throwing
Speaker 1: all their ship in the in the water and just
Speaker 1: being like and then smoke his cigars. So I just
Speaker 1: love that. But anyway, I love the history of like
Speaker 1: Home Depot against the nineteenth century and you know, and
Speaker 1: which is better? I mean they both sucked. I guess
Speaker 1: so one covered the bottom of the ocean in Greece
Speaker 1: and the other is, you know, an unchecked monopoly. They
Speaker 1: both suck. However, the at least with the at least
Speaker 1: with the old days, there were some like characters down
Speaker 1: by the docks. Now everybody at Home Depot is just
Speaker 1: depressed and they're like, I think it's an Aisle twelve.
Speaker 1: But I also don't give a fuck. It's important to
Speaker 1: me that you know that I don't of a funk.
Speaker 1: Where's it? I don't know, I'll fuck you. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: tell you a number. It might be the right number,
Speaker 1: but I want you to know that I don't give
Speaker 1: a funk if it is or not. So in nineteen
Speaker 1: sixty seven, this dude built his own submarine called the
Speaker 1: Quester one, and he he was like a shipyard worker
Speaker 1: and he had a dream to build a submarine that
Speaker 1: he was gonna send down to the Andrea Doria. The
Speaker 1: Andrea Doria was a passenger liner that collided with some
Speaker 1: other passenger liner or something or and they ran into
Speaker 1: each other and the Swedish ship stayed up and the
Speaker 1: Andrea Doria went down and something like a lot of
Speaker 1: people were rescued, but like fifty people died or something.
Speaker 1: And this guy was like, I'm gonna go down there
Speaker 1: and get their valuables. And he also was like I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go down there and actually raised them. He wanted
Speaker 1: to raise the Andrea Doria with this sub called the
Speaker 1: quester One, and he built He built a sub out
Speaker 1: of scrap metal. He had a there was a lot
Speaker 1: of hoop blah about it. I knew nothing about it,
Speaker 1: and I was watching this video and this guy was like,
Speaker 1: there's the old sub. He was like kayaking by this
Speaker 1: fucking submarine that's sticking out of this like inlet full
Speaker 1: of shoe polish. And and then and and it's been there.
Speaker 1: It turned out that it never got off the ground.
Speaker 1: Like he spent like six years building this thing out
Speaker 1: of scrap metal so that it's just and it's kind
Speaker 1: of beautiful, and he put it in, but the ballast
Speaker 1: wasn't right because it was expensive to put the right
Speaker 1: ballast in, so I only put half the ballast in.
Speaker 1: And he told the crane operator to just lower it
Speaker 1: in a little, but the crane operator dropped it straight down.
Speaker 1: It got stuck in the mud and it didn't ever
Speaker 1: move again because it was too heavy, and it got
Speaker 1: blown by a storm and now it sticks pretty substantially
Speaker 1: out of the body of water that's right behind home
Speaker 1: depot And people like painted yellow and ship too. It's
Speaker 1: yellow on top because he was originally painted all yellow.
Speaker 1: And I've watched enough videos about it now that I
Speaker 1: know that they painted he painted a yellow because it
Speaker 1: was the cheapest paint he could mind, Like it was
Speaker 1: the cheapest like waterproof paint he could find, because they
Speaker 1: were like is a Beatles reference, But it was like
Speaker 1: before or that song. So this guy and he was
Speaker 1: alive in like two thousand nineteen, So these people, he's
Speaker 1: been bothered about it his whole life, this giant failure. Imagine, like, hello, man,
Speaker 1: tell the story about how your fucking submarine he spent
Speaker 1: like fifty years building fell in the mud. How did
Speaker 1: you get this number, the cream like dropped it booz
Speaker 1: so fucking heavy. Got stuck. Hello, this is press. Crofton
Speaker 1: is uh, yeah, it was yellow got stuck in the
Speaker 1: mud house whole by exactly. And he's told it like
Speaker 1: I'm sure he was excited to tell it like the
Speaker 1: first few times, but then YouTube came and he was like,
Speaker 1: oh no, right back, it's like four drones above that
Speaker 1: fucking thing like colliding. Like I don't have I don't
Speaker 1: have any urge to get in a professionally constructed submarine,
Speaker 1: let alone one that I like. But that does seem
Speaker 1: to be a an urge that some people have is
Speaker 1: to build build their own submarine and like get down
Speaker 1: there and then it's yeah, the funk was there to
Speaker 1: do waiting waiting line for tickets to the Boston concert
Speaker 1: or you build your own submarine? Yeah, you couldn't just
Speaker 1: quickly google how badly it went forever? Are you like,
Speaker 1: are you like eat cop and egg because you're tired
Speaker 1: of just sticking it in your gum? Yeah, all right,
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break, we'll come back. We'll getting
Speaker 1: over it, under it, and we're back. Chris Crofton, what
Speaker 1: is something you think is overrated. Well, just those are short.
Speaker 1: So I'm just gonna tell you one other thing about
Speaker 1: the mining in the Abandoned Mind. We're gonna need to
Speaker 1: pass at it out. So so I just was watching
Speaker 1: this a band of Mind video and you guys can
Speaker 1: find it. I just I talked about it on I
Speaker 1: don't know if I talked about it on on my podcast,
Speaker 1: but anyway, I put it up on my Instagram at
Speaker 1: the Crofton show. But this guy was going through the
Speaker 1: abandoned mine on the third level, which is called the
Speaker 1: three hundred level, which is because I know too much,
Speaker 1: like it's the levels are called on three hundred, like
Speaker 1: three hundred meaning three d feet underground. And he was
Speaker 1: on the fucking three hundred level of mine and there's
Speaker 1: a bunch of old ship down there, like fucking nineteen
Speaker 1: sixties carnation, fucking powdered milk and all kinds of stuff.
Speaker 1: And then he's like, oh, look an old case of
Speaker 1: Skippies peanut butter. Oh and that's a oh a porno
Speaker 1: mag There was a fucking hustler from like and I
Speaker 1: could tell I know why hustlers that's from the night.
Speaker 1: That was a shiny hustler that was like from the nineties.
Speaker 1: So who the fuck was masturbating on the three hundred
Speaker 1: level of a guy? I mean, I understand being paranoid
Speaker 1: your parents are gonna come in on you, but that
Speaker 1: seems like and this guy buried the lead. I mean,
Speaker 1: he had no interest. He's like he was like, oh,
Speaker 1: look an old thing of old peanut butter. And then
Speaker 1: he's like, oh the porn bag and like sped by it,
Speaker 1: oh man, which I was like, that's the hook. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's the best thing that's ever happened in an abandoned mine. Right.
Speaker 1: We understand someone drank evaporated milk and eats skippy and
Speaker 1: white bread sandwiches on. I want to know, but the
Speaker 1: hustler who brought a porn mag was it like were
Speaker 1: they trolling future hunters or like you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Or was it a masturba tory station that people went
Speaker 1: to where that was left there as the pornographic material
Speaker 1: for other other travelers. When you're a young kid, it's
Speaker 1: hard to get porn. And I it's possible that some
Speaker 1: kids were like listen, that was like those kids, you
Speaker 1: want to go, you want to go masturbate real good?
Speaker 1: Not where you have to think. I look at a toothbrush,
Speaker 1: I think it looks pornography. Was I think maybe my
Speaker 1: first lesson lesson in like communal ownership, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean. You got the tape right now. It's like, oh,
Speaker 1: I got the tape. Do you need the tape? Yes,
Speaker 1: I'll bring it tomorrow, tape tomorrow for you, and then
Speaker 1: please allow Yes, you can dub it if you got
Speaker 1: two VCRs, and then bring the original back to me
Speaker 1: because I need to allow someone else to dub this
Speaker 1: teammates porn socialism. That's amazing, hiding them in the forest.
Speaker 1: I know people talk about that. So it's like, God,
Speaker 1: that's a whole. But the mind ship is a little worried.
Speaker 1: So like at the three hundred level, I'm imagining it
Speaker 1: might be a little unstable, like it's not safe to
Speaker 1: go that deep. Like I get when you're just puts
Speaker 1: it around and like the top entrance area, but like
Speaker 1: going deep, I would be like, yo, is this about
Speaker 1: just collapse? Was this disrespectful the history around you? It's
Speaker 1: like old gloves. I'm sorry, Chris, and I don't care
Speaker 1: about disrespect. I'm talking about personal safety. Down there, there's
Speaker 1: old gloves. Man, there's still gloves. I just like that.
Speaker 1: Chris and I catch somebody with their fucking porn bags
Speaker 1: down there, I'm like, Yo, get out of here, jackass.
Speaker 1: You will hurt yourself in this old mind and man,
Speaker 1: be like, have you no respect for the mind? Respect?
Speaker 1: Do you masturbated the Smithsonian Institution? Yeah, they wouldn't let you.
Speaker 1: But because this is a federally funded heritage site, Oh,
Speaker 1: all bets are off and it's Jackie's jack off. Bore you.
Speaker 1: I just want to know more about it. I can't
Speaker 1: believe the guy skimmed over it, but the underrated would
Speaker 1: be I was just gonna say, being respectful to creeps
Speaker 1: when they die, like this sort of concern. Someone's probably
Speaker 1: talked about it in the last few days, like just
Speaker 1: the idea that out of the woodwork come all these
Speaker 1: conservative people being like, don't you know, like how dare
Speaker 1: you make fun? Yeah? Exactly, Like it's like, why that
Speaker 1: is such horseship. These are the same people that you know,
Speaker 1: like say, burn baby burn when they execute a murderer.
Speaker 1: Of course, you know, I just think it's I just
Speaker 1: because I said something about hopefully convicted murderer. I'm sure yeah,
Speaker 1: it's just horseshit. It's the same as like we don't
Speaker 1: put Supreme Court judges on the court close to an election.
Speaker 1: It's all these made up, fucking rules that don't make
Speaker 1: any sense. If someone's a bad person, you do not
Speaker 1: have to You can be glad a bad person died.
Speaker 1: It makes sense. It's not complicated, like you know, like
Speaker 1: it makes me so mad. I just made fun of
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not saying, well, here we go. I'm
Speaker 1: starting to like backpedal. But you know, like Queen Elizabeth,
Speaker 1: you know, I made a joke you know, Corgy Paul Bearers,
Speaker 1: you know, Corgy priest or whatever, you know, and I
Speaker 1: said a Corgi delivered or eulogy and said she's weird
Speaker 1: or she was weird, you know, uh, you know, and
Speaker 1: people are like, you know, I put that up on
Speaker 1: social media because I've got important you know, because I'm
Speaker 1: an important person and um doing working, doing important work,
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, a bunch of people are like,
Speaker 1: nice work, asshole, libtard, motherfucker and making fun of the dead.
Speaker 1: Great job. You know. It's like I just have so
Speaker 1: it's so dishonest, It's it's just insane. I just there's
Speaker 1: no rea and to be sad about people who you
Speaker 1: know are bad who die, then they can't do any
Speaker 1: more bad stuff. It's a simple equation. When Rupert Murdoch dies,
Speaker 1: it will be good, objectively very good, and people will
Speaker 1: be like you just can't it doesn't matter if they're bad.
Speaker 1: Well what about his family? They're really they're really going
Speaker 1: through it now, ship too. They're carrying the fucking torch.
Speaker 1: Fuck them. I hope they all died too soon too.
Speaker 1: So there's something here right in the monster's like it is.
Speaker 1: It sounds bad. It sounds bad, but I mean, I'm
Speaker 1: just saying, you know, whatever made mee Loughland is nice.
Speaker 1: But I don't know why we have to give these
Speaker 1: people the better of the doubt. They're not giving us
Speaker 1: the better for the death. They're stomping on our graves. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but that's if there's no like in build accepted like
Speaker 1: status of being like, well, when they're they're you can't
Speaker 1: gloat or be happy about their demise, like if you know,
Speaker 1: it's I think as our our willingness to like respect
Speaker 1: or review these institutions or roads like their their freakouts
Speaker 1: become more vivid or people like, man, that's really no
Speaker 1: way to do that, Like you don't want to do that,
Speaker 1: Like you don't want to talk about people like that
Speaker 1: because I don't know, it's like superstition or something like
Speaker 1: somehow you're gonna it's just some bullshit because it doesn't
Speaker 1: make any sense because these people are are not respectful
Speaker 1: to living people. I don't even understand scream at you
Speaker 1: on the internet, call you a fucking flatheaded pancake or
Speaker 1: whatever the people call people that is mainly what they called.
Speaker 1: What is that an insult from a joke book? You
Speaker 1: found out that flatheaded handcakes faces redundant. I think that
Speaker 1: was like how I would come up with disses. I
Speaker 1: think I called like someone spaghetti sauce. These people don't
Speaker 1: reserve their means dead. I'm just saying there mean as
Speaker 1: fun these people. I'm not out here. You know, you're
Speaker 1: not stopping the presses to to like shoot on some
Speaker 1: obscure person who is doing their job. And like you're like,
Speaker 1: I don't know this person, somebody who has you know,
Speaker 1: through the descending or ascension of the crown, and like
Speaker 1: this idea of you, especially it relates to like the
Speaker 1: monarchy of like the divine right of kings and ships.
Speaker 1: That's fucking bullshit, that's bullshit. You have the operative if
Speaker 1: if you if you are taking that, if you're benefiting
Speaker 1: from this, like this weird concept of like your divine
Speaker 1: right as a monarch. Then but you gotta come that
Speaker 1: guess what you own everything that's come along with that. Yes,
Speaker 1: and then but that's all you, that's you, that's you. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's why you don't have a last name. That's how
Speaker 1: fucking popping you are. You don't have a last names.
Speaker 1: I don't give up. I'm talking about motherfucker's and I
Speaker 1: don't have last names. They're so fucking powerful. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: just so that was the my overrated was going to be.
Speaker 1: Just that, it's that it's overrated to be respectful of
Speaker 1: the lousy people who are not nice. And then, uh,
Speaker 1: the other one is underrated is this is not respectful
Speaker 1: to the dead. So I'm it's pretty enjoyable when some
Speaker 1: shit dies to say to use a little honesty and
Speaker 1: stop with the smoke and mirrors about respect and stuff,
Speaker 1: because nobody's showing anybody fucking any respect right now, especially
Speaker 1: people who are telling you to show respect when they
Speaker 1: feel like that's someone that they this idea that liberals
Speaker 1: are like it's just completely out of control, disrespecting everybody.
Speaker 1: But like it's like always this preppy, sort of like
Speaker 1: old money idea of what respect is. It's like, you
Speaker 1: can be fucking racist your whole life, but then you
Speaker 1: still gotta be nice when they die or some ship. Yes,
Speaker 1: it's like some that's really the finish line for them.
Speaker 1: I created jobs. It's these things that like the Tucker
Speaker 1: Carlson's of the world, and these people I grew up
Speaker 1: among in Connecticut. They have these like rules and they're
Speaker 1: all meant to control people. It's like, you have to
Speaker 1: be nice in this situation because it helps us to
Speaker 1: not get criticized. Of course, that's all it is. It's
Speaker 1: just it helps us to not to keep running this scam.
Speaker 1: That there's this inherent it's really connected to just the
Speaker 1: like they feel like they're heroes because they fucking have money.
Speaker 1: I don't know how that that's as simple as that really,
Speaker 1: And they don't want to be criticized ever, so especially
Speaker 1: when they die, it's a perfect time for them to
Speaker 1: be like, especially not now criticize, but especially now that
Speaker 1: so much and like weird fucking ship posts and Facebook
Speaker 1: posts of people who are like defending, like Elon Musk
Speaker 1: and Jeff Bezos. They're like these people. You might hate them,
Speaker 1: but they are putting food on the table for millions,
Speaker 1: so you want them to go away. Can you show
Speaker 1: me that on a piece of paper, buddy? Can you
Speaker 1: draw out how how much money I'm getting from Elon
Speaker 1: Musk because it seems like it's the other way around.
Speaker 1: Jeff the cause of and solution to all life's problems.
Speaker 1: I said the wrong origin blew up? Oh Dawn, Twitter,
Speaker 1: See I'm digging in. I'm digging in on this wanting
Speaker 1: bad people. He's already worried about how people are gonna
Speaker 1: act when he died. That's why he's policing the queen's death.
Speaker 1: Anybody who criticizes anyone who ever sold books is a monster,
Speaker 1: and everyone knows that. That's always that's always been true.
Speaker 1: If you start a website, you cannot be criticized. Oh
Speaker 1: so you're anti literacy, I got it. Should we talk
Speaker 1: about the queen's funeral real quick? So Monday is the
Speaker 1: Queen's funeral, And you know there was a procession with
Speaker 1: Coffin and all on Wednesday of this week, so really
Speaker 1: it's pretty much like a week long affair. But yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like south By, but instead of concert and movies,
Speaker 1: it's just a single queen funeral. What band is? What
Speaker 1: bandes the Queen? If it's south By, oh Man, Rolling Stone,
Speaker 1: cold Play? Although south By is supposed to be small though,
Speaker 1: be a little more indie, right, Sorry, I guess that's
Speaker 1: like the original show some respect for Spoon can criticize
Speaker 1: Spoon for Elizabeth You kidding me? How many job spoon? Anyways,
Speaker 1: it will feature the traditional closing of McDonald's restaurants to
Speaker 1: allow everyone to pay their respects, which is how I
Speaker 1: that was how I was initially like, oh so this
Speaker 1: is like this is a overt fuck you too. The
Speaker 1: working class is like, yeah, you can't. You can't even
Speaker 1: eat McDonald's while we're petting our respects to the queen. Right,
Speaker 1: but all like the flag Graw parlors are open, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: but Caviare City will be open all night long. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like party same vibe as Party City to Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like and it's so sloppy to loose Caviar because
Speaker 1: they're so wealthy. I bought fake mustaches at party city.
Speaker 1: You try buying a bunch of fake mustaches at parties
Speaker 1: in your city when you're fifty three year old white man.
Speaker 1: See how they oh, my god, like caviar. It's been
Speaker 1: declared an extra bank holiday, and that that means that
Speaker 1: it would require people to be paid over time, which
Speaker 1: is why everyone's like closing the closing down because they
Speaker 1: don't want to pay people. But that it does mean
Speaker 1: like schools and shops will be closed for what is
Speaker 1: the first state funeral since Churchill died in sixty and
Speaker 1: they like there's some details, like some specifics that they're doing,
Speaker 1: Like they closed bike racks. They put up notes saying
Speaker 1: don't lock your bikes here across one of the cities too,
Speaker 1: Like in the honor of Queen Elizabeth, they were like,
Speaker 1: don't everyone knows you don't lock your bike when someone
Speaker 1: just died. As the Queen lies at rest, that she
Speaker 1: wants to hear all that clicking was locking to remove
Speaker 1: bikes found on the rack during this time. But it's
Speaker 1: like nobody's working, you know, if that's not someone's job,
Speaker 1: that is a piece of metal that you're just making
Speaker 1: people's lives harder by saying you can't. Doesn't that feel
Speaker 1: like it's specifically anti working class, like pro it's just
Speaker 1: like a way to funck over people with less money,
Speaker 1: then yeah, or I mean, or if you're just like yeah,
Speaker 1: in a town generally where you get around on bike,
Speaker 1: like it's just such a weird act of hostility that
Speaker 1: makes no sense. There's nothing I guess maybe unless you're
Speaker 1: really trying to say, like, dude, we're gonna force you
Speaker 1: to respect the fucking queen because you can't even park
Speaker 1: your bike anywhere. Just sucking watch the BBC man sucking
Speaker 1: sob like, I don't know your bike, but I guess
Speaker 1: it's probably stolen. It's probably just another way for people
Speaker 1: who have just some semblance of power to this is
Speaker 1: how we flex our power to say we're sad about this. Weird.
Speaker 1: Do you think there's any way that she knew how
Speaker 1: to ride a bike? No, no way, ride side saddle
Speaker 1: like side saddle and just like keep or just so
Speaker 1: confused because it's not moving forward. Just it my word,
Speaker 1: it's I bet she. I bet she did learn to
Speaker 1: ride a bike, and people at the time we're like,
Speaker 1: this is unacceptable. She's like a true icon of class
Speaker 1: to ride a bike like this into business. They were
Speaker 1: like meetings about it. Presumed she took a terrible tumble.
Speaker 1: UK grocery store chain turned down the sound of its
Speaker 1: checkout beat out of perspect like this ship. Also it
Speaker 1: did not that's not true. It is real. The UK
Speaker 1: supermarket chain Morrison's turned down the sound of his checkout
Speaker 1: leaps two. No one's allowed to eat. No one can
Speaker 1: eat for nine six hours. I'll tell you who can eat.
Speaker 1: Buskers and street performers have been banned from the underground,
Speaker 1: from the TV, not for, not for just like general banning,
Speaker 1: just because of the Queen, because of the Queen. You
Speaker 1: don't know what they're gonna sing about, Chris, that's true.
Speaker 1: The Queen doesn't want to hear something bad singer while
Speaker 1: she's having to lay around. Yeah, she's got to slay
Speaker 1: in a box. She doesn't want to hear some shitty
Speaker 1: music while she's in there. Busking is serious business in
Speaker 1: the UK, and I like that that people make money.
Speaker 1: Like they interviewed somebody for this article and they were
Speaker 1: they were like, yeah, more than a quarter of my
Speaker 1: monthly income is gone because of this, thanks the Queen.
Speaker 1: So shitty. The air stocracy sucks so fucking bad. They
Speaker 1: want money and respect and you can't have both. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: They're like these things called center Parks. It's like a
Speaker 1: European network of holiday villages. And they announced they would
Speaker 1: close on Monday and reopen Tuesday, but like people planned
Speaker 1: their vacations there and they were just going to kick
Speaker 1: them out of like the hotel complex. Basically, yeah, you're
Speaker 1: not allowed to be here while we are, you know,
Speaker 1: doing whatever weird sacrifice we do in honor of the
Speaker 1: passing of the queen. But the big one is they
Speaker 1: had people were like, we're literally just going to be
Speaker 1: like out sitting and will cancel our reservations. But several
Speaker 1: food banks to be out shipping on the road. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know what do you do? I mean, if
Speaker 1: you can't get a vacation, No, if you can't, if
Speaker 1: you can't, if you're on vacation in a place and
Speaker 1: the place that you're you're supposed to be staying like
Speaker 1: is no longer open. The queen take me to the
Speaker 1: road recommend and they call him the Haymarket riots. I
Speaker 1: don't know what they would call a ship riot, but
Speaker 1: uh yeah, that's what I think I thought, okay, most
Speaker 1: riots throughout history where ship riots, and they just like
Speaker 1: kind of erased that. People don't ask me more bathroom
Speaker 1: is during a road. That's one of the details that
Speaker 1: gets erased from history, the massive amounts of nowhere. I'm
Speaker 1: working on a doctrine about it. There you go. But yeah,
Speaker 1: the big the big one. Several food banks will close
Speaker 1: that day. Holy fuck, what's the point of that because
Speaker 1: the queen loved to take funds that were intended for
Speaker 1: poor people and use it for her own closing closing
Speaker 1: down the food banks for a corgy parade. It really
Speaker 1: does like when you think about, okay, the food banks,
Speaker 1: the bike locks, the bike racks, like it, it's stuff
Speaker 1: that seems like it would be very common sense so
Speaker 1: that you don't do that. Ship It does seem like
Speaker 1: it is the aristocracy and the people, the these royalists,
Speaker 1: which is apparently a thing just being like, yeah, this
Speaker 1: is our day. Motherfucker's like you you sit and respect
Speaker 1: us on our day, you know, Yeah, because it doesn't
Speaker 1: there's no there's no like logic to being like, oh
Speaker 1: I don't like bike racks. Yeah right, they're like, you know,
Speaker 1: her and her bike racks. You know, just for one day,
Speaker 1: the bike racks will be at peace. It really like
Speaker 1: you're saying. It's like, oh, you don't give a fuck,
Speaker 1: watch us make it unavoidable for you. Motherfucker's like you
Speaker 1: can talk all the ships you want, like, oh, you
Speaker 1: don't give a fuck. But guess what. I can stop
Speaker 1: the bike racks. I'll make the beeps go low, get
Speaker 1: rid of the shopping bags, the busker and also guess what,
Speaker 1: you can't talk all the ship you want, because I
Speaker 1: will be very mad and I will arrest you. I'll
Speaker 1: tell you one thing, aristocracy. You keep pushing and we'll
Speaker 1: use queens. Queen Elizabeth's rib cage? Is that goddamn pike rack? Hey,
Speaker 1: that's what I'm telling about. See what I'm saying? Yeah,
Speaker 1: watch it. Then someone's gonna go, what's this guy doing in?
Speaker 1: Who the fun is that? I'm going too far? I'm
Speaker 1: going too far? Okay, we're mad about bike racks, but
Speaker 1: we're not on That doesn't help. We're trying to get
Speaker 1: the food pantries open, sure, but thank you for that comment.
Speaker 1: We're not gonna go full and gain. I'll use your
Speaker 1: food food banks is the money bank you guys can
Speaker 1: cut that. By the way, I think you should cut
Speaker 1: rib cage and turn it into like ice cream, Like really,
Speaker 1: obviously we'll use the Queen's cream in a different voice,
Speaker 1: like DJ Dan's voice. Just be like ice cream. They
Speaker 1: are also there's just like a lot of First of all,
Speaker 1: the funeral is gonna cost millions of pounds, and they're
Speaker 1: also like canceling their canceling a bunch of people's doctor's appointments.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, because doctors. Doctors love the fucking queen.
Speaker 1: Oh man. Yeah, they're like, oh funk, I'm not doing
Speaker 1: any doctoring today. I gotta fucking get real. I gotta
Speaker 1: meditate on all the great things the Queen did for me.
Speaker 1: Hold one, I like. Yah. They're generally like, man, we
Speaker 1: don't give a funk about anything. If you're too if
Speaker 1: you're starving, I don't know, figure something out. You got
Speaker 1: like chemo surgeries are being canceled. Yeah, it feels. And then,
Speaker 1: of course, like as with all you know, big televised spectacles,
Speaker 1: the unhoused community will be like forcibly removed by police.
Speaker 1: So oh cool. So it's like the Olympics and everything,
Speaker 1: all those shitty things wrapped up in one. Yeah, well yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean I don't know, like what, I'm really curious
Speaker 1: how how inconvenient everyone really is, because you see a
Speaker 1: lot of people are just like I don't fucking get it,
Speaker 1: you know, but I want it, Like I can only
Speaker 1: imagine how truly, like just maddening it is to be like, well,
Speaker 1: I can't go I can't go to my fucking doctor
Speaker 1: because someone without a last name, no, six year old
Speaker 1: with no last name died. Have you no kouth? No?
Speaker 1: I bet you drink tea at four o'clock or whatever.
Speaker 1: There's also they've been arresting people just for saying things
Speaker 1: that are critical of that wet roughed up and arrested
Speaker 1: someone who what did he say, well, sick old man
Speaker 1: and he said you're a sickle man to Andrew. Someone
Speaker 1: said who elected him when something was happening with the
Speaker 1: new king and they got arrested. That's like Monty Python ship, Yeah,
Speaker 1: I didn't vote for you. It's wild too. That was
Speaker 1: another moment where just like the one time they asked
Speaker 1: that woman in London if she was like a monarchist
Speaker 1: whatever feeling when there's like a video of them the
Speaker 1: least asking that Heckler, like why would you do that?
Speaker 1: And he's like because he's a pedophile and he's like
Speaker 1: assaulting people and he can get away with it, and
Speaker 1: the Crown was used to like obscure his crime. In
Speaker 1: fact that you are all our pals and Jimmy Saville,
Speaker 1: who is like one of the biggest fucking rapists and
Speaker 1: recorded history. I mean, there's not a lot to like
Speaker 1: about the royal family if you even think about it
Speaker 1: for five seconds. I mean, I really I think people
Speaker 1: are just fans of them the way they're fans of
Speaker 1: any It gives them a connection to power and wealth
Speaker 1: that they like, you know, it's like I stand the
Speaker 1: Queen and that means that she might vend move me
Speaker 1: some money or something like. I think that's a lot
Speaker 1: of fandom now. Is like this just extreme association because
Speaker 1: you can't even get near wealth anymore because it's all
Speaker 1: concentrated at the top. So standing feels like somehow, like
Speaker 1: defending them feels like you're close to them, and somehow
Speaker 1: they know that you're defending them. So weird psychological it's
Speaker 1: like you know, it's like yeah, it's like, um, how
Speaker 1: do you say it? Like when the kidnapper used to
Speaker 1: like a kidnapper. Yeah, it's kind of like that, you know,
Speaker 1: It's like it's just this sort of love of wealthy celebrities,
Speaker 1: because that just feels like they might know that you
Speaker 1: love them, and then you're their friend and maybe you
Speaker 1: can come over and use their infinity pool or whatever
Speaker 1: while you suck eggs in read real life and they
Speaker 1: fucking shut down your bike rack. Yeah, and guess what,
Speaker 1: they just switched out their eggs with pieces of ship
Speaker 1: But then like Stopholm syndrome, you knowbod, He's like, of
Speaker 1: course they need just shut down the bike racks, right,
Speaker 1: fun are you talking about? You know anything about death
Speaker 1: at all? You think people want to hear I want
Speaker 1: to ride a bike? You think there's nothing more disrespectful
Speaker 1: than using a bike rack right near someone's death. You
Speaker 1: gotta wait at least eight days. Do you not know
Speaker 1: anything about Western civilization? Yeah, and you have to have
Speaker 1: at least eight coregis. One guy went to Parliament Square
Speaker 1: and held up a blank piece of paper as like,
Speaker 1: this feels like it's like a psychological experiment on just
Speaker 1: like how much the city has lost it. He held
Speaker 1: up a blank piece of paper, and the officer officers
Speaker 1: came and asked for his details, and he was like,
Speaker 1: what if I wrote not my king on that blank
Speaker 1: piece of paper? And they were like, yeah, we would
Speaker 1: have arrested you. Just just very strange that. I love
Speaker 1: how genteel a sound that. What are these for his details?
Speaker 1: That sounds like it's not so bad anyways. All right, well,
Speaker 1: let's take a quick break. We'll come back. We'll talk
Speaker 1: about some potential strikes happening here in the US. We're
Speaker 1: so much better than England, you know, just so much
Speaker 1: killing it over here. The new episode should be called
Speaker 1: Snope Sink Fanta. There you go. You guys just missed
Speaker 1: the enthralling back and forth about what the origins of fanta,
Speaker 1: or maybe be it didn't. It's totally either way. There
Speaker 1: is a reason, though, you may not be experiencing a
Speaker 1: lot of Fanta in your local store because rail workers
Speaker 1: are ready to strike. What is it this time? Hold on, Jack,
Speaker 1: let me just set the table for you here. Okay,
Speaker 1: So companies for years have prioritized maximum profits, which has
Speaker 1: led to understaffing and general negligence of the rail infrastructure,
Speaker 1: for example in America. Yes, like a typical like if
Speaker 1: you're like a like a train, If driving a train
Speaker 1: going from Chattanooga to Atlanta, it took about five to
Speaker 1: six hours in the eighties. Now it takes around twelve
Speaker 1: because again understaffing, negligence, the infrastructure is not great. And
Speaker 1: a lot of this too is now that just work.
Speaker 1: It's just been more intense, more intense business on the
Speaker 1: rails because of the increased demand for goods from people
Speaker 1: just ordering ship more and more online. And right now
Speaker 1: two large rail unions, the International Association of Sheet Metal,
Speaker 1: Air Rail and Transportation Workers Transportation Division smart TV and
Speaker 1: the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and train Men are ready
Speaker 1: to strike with up to like a hundred forty thousand
Speaker 1: plus people. This would be the first mass railroad strikes
Speaker 1: since the nineteen eighties. I think it was since nineteen
Speaker 1: eight potentially, And these workers aren't really necessarily complaining about wages.
Speaker 1: What they're really the biggest sticking point in these negotiations
Speaker 1: is that they're fighting to have just a decent quality
Speaker 1: of life because as it stands, when these workers have
Speaker 1: a day off, they're always on call and they have
Speaker 1: to constantly check in to see if they're gonna get
Speaker 1: called in up until like midnight, and then they know,
Speaker 1: like they'll have the day off. Like it's very unpredictable
Speaker 1: and like they never have any semblance of being able
Speaker 1: to live their life. And because of this, even when
Speaker 1: they think they have days off, means they're missing doctor's appointments,
Speaker 1: they're missing birthdays, they're missing the births of children. They
Speaker 1: can't bike, they can't park their bikes on the bike racks.
Speaker 1: This is how, this is how out of control of
Speaker 1: this ship. But this is all because again the rail companies.
Speaker 1: There are the railroads. They would rather run these workers
Speaker 1: ragged with eighty to ninety hour work weeks than actually
Speaker 1: just invest in hiring more people. And what sort of
Speaker 1: is now at stake here is that Congress, because of
Speaker 1: the Railway Labor Act, it does a couple of things
Speaker 1: that helps the railroads. First is that the Railway Labor Act,
Speaker 1: it's it's basically doesn't cover these workers for federal overtime protection.
Speaker 1: The only thing that they get is like a guarantee
Speaker 1: of like ten hours between shifts every twenty four hours.
Speaker 1: So it's like if you're working a tent, like ten
Speaker 1: hours in between shifts depending on how far you like
Speaker 1: live from your place of work or you have to
Speaker 1: be that might not even be enough to actually sleep
Speaker 1: and like do ship that you might have to just
Speaker 1: as a normal person who is in the in between
Speaker 1: times of not working. And second, the Railway Labor Act.
Speaker 1: Because of it, Congress can step in and stop a
Speaker 1: strike and force workers to accept an attract unilaterally. And
Speaker 1: so what about the Senate though, can't that person step in?
Speaker 1: What depends on who it benefits. Materarian will not step
Speaker 1: in on this one. They're like, no, no, no, you
Speaker 1: can go ahead and do that. But right now, other
Speaker 1: unions have agreed to deals that have been sort of
Speaker 1: like the government that was like trying to intervene to
Speaker 1: really stop this strike from happening because it's it would
Speaker 1: be a massive disruption. Obviously, because we just got a
Speaker 1: news thing from my phone. The Washington Post says, Amtrak
Speaker 1: cancels all long distance trains beginning Thursday as rail systems
Speaker 1: brace for potential strike. Yeah, and I mean by the
Speaker 1: time you hear this, it may be happening all because
Speaker 1: so right now, one of the deals that the government
Speaker 1: has intervened on put on the table. Some unions have
Speaker 1: like have accepted this was like a twenty four percent
Speaker 1: wage increase over five years, but a lot of people
Speaker 1: point out, with inflation where it's at, that's actually a
Speaker 1: day cut. Yeah, that's you're not even keep him, that's
Speaker 1: so that's nothing stuff at this The other offer now
Speaker 1: is that they're trying to negotiate there like, well, we
Speaker 1: can get you guaranteed time off to go to the
Speaker 1: doctor and that's it, And that doesn't seem too attractive
Speaker 1: to the people that also want to be able to
Speaker 1: again have a life. All of these people, like constantly,
Speaker 1: these union members and workers. All they're saying is I
Speaker 1: can't I can't fucking ever know when I have time
Speaker 1: to like see my kids or my grandkids. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: do they think when my queen died they became the
Speaker 1: queen of England? Because go to the doctor whenever you
Speaker 1: want to get the exactly who do you think you are?
Speaker 1: It's some bad taste to go to the doctor because
Speaker 1: you know someone died somewhere. But you hear people saying
Speaker 1: this is my living situation, my work situation, you'd be like,
Speaker 1: that's fucked up. At a minimum, you got to have
Speaker 1: time to fucking spend like, see your fanis like live
Speaker 1: like someone whose life isn't all work. I've been reading
Speaker 1: about this and talking about it quite a bit because
Speaker 1: this is like someone smart. I didn't ink of this,
Speaker 1: but they were like if you're like when they were
Speaker 1: talking about unionizing Starbucks and they're talking about unionizing Amazon
Speaker 1: warehouses or things like that, and they're like, oh, that's
Speaker 1: gonna make our business. That's gonna sunk up our business model.
Speaker 1: That's because if you have a business that's built on
Speaker 1: violating labor laws, then that's not a business. And that's like,
Speaker 1: that's why I'm so glad that unions are you know,
Speaker 1: some seems to of course, this is like me just
Speaker 1: watching the news and being like, unions are gonna come back.
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know how much how significant it is,
Speaker 1: but every time a Starbucks gets unionized or I mean
Speaker 1: this is obvious stuff, like workers get abused without unions.
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's it's as simple as that. And
Speaker 1: and and you know you've got people being in bottles
Speaker 1: and not being able to go to doctor's appointments, and
Speaker 1: it's all in the name of the executives these companies.
Speaker 1: The stat is I forget what the stat is exactly.
Speaker 1: But it used to be the CEOs of companies made
Speaker 1: whatever twenty times the income of their lowest paid worker
Speaker 1: or whatever whatever, and now it's like two eight thousand times.
Speaker 1: It's not that high, but it's like something like it's
Speaker 1: it's twenty thousand times. It's high. So it's not a mystery,
Speaker 1: and it's that That's the thing, is like, there's this
Speaker 1: constant lie that the one percent or that you know,
Speaker 1: the wealth hoarders have that somehow this has always been
Speaker 1: the way it's been, and it hasn't been. It's been
Speaker 1: like since the early nineties when they started making full
Speaker 1: time people temp workers and saying, hey, what are they
Speaker 1: gonna do if we cut their pensions? What are we
Speaker 1: gonna do if we make them on call all the time?
Speaker 1: You know? My brother pointed out the other he mentioned
Speaker 1: the fucking Iraq war, sending the fucking national Guard, and
Speaker 1: the national Guard was not supposed to be deployed overseas,
Speaker 1: and they're like, what are they gonna do about it?
Speaker 1: It's just this the gradual erosion of of like a
Speaker 1: social contract. It's just like, and I'm so glad that
Speaker 1: these fucking people are in some way getting because they're
Speaker 1: just abusing workers just to pay their fucking dividends. Right.
Speaker 1: And you know this one of the guys who is
Speaker 1: quoted in this this American Prospect article about like the
Speaker 1: impending strike, he talks about like what it's been like
Speaker 1: just because of the pandemic. Quote, I don't know what
Speaker 1: happened during the pandemic that woke everybody up, and I'm
Speaker 1: talking about all of America, but yeah, they had a
Speaker 1: big effect. People are saying, now there's something more to
Speaker 1: life than wasting it on the railroad or at my job.
Speaker 1: And that's true across the board. I think it's helped
Speaker 1: people really re established different priorities in their lives. And
Speaker 1: this is again, you're countless people saying this is this
Speaker 1: strike needs to happen. Quote, This is not about money.
Speaker 1: This is about quality of life. This is about getting
Speaker 1: time off with your family and remembering that people that
Speaker 1: people don't know what trains are even they think trains
Speaker 1: are like some relic of the past. They don't know
Speaker 1: how they get their ship. And the pandemic and the
Speaker 1: supply chain stuff is just highlighted for Americans who think
Speaker 1: this ship comes out of the air that that that
Speaker 1: if you don't fucking support your workers and your infrastructure,
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, I I thinking about people at
Speaker 1: Starbucks being like, where's my mocha? You know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Like enduring the pandemic, people were like they were like
Speaker 1: the poor workers are like, we have no mocha here,
Speaker 1: and they're like, what do you mean? You know, it's
Speaker 1: like how fucking kick the wall's? Yeah, exactly, there must
Speaker 1: be mocha in here. It comes out of the ground
Speaker 1: or whatever. You get some mocha. Yeah, they don't. You know,
Speaker 1: it's like a train. Right what wait to hear about
Speaker 1: all your other consumer electronics? Yeah, it's right, yeah, fucking asshole.
Speaker 1: But like you look again, right, like we're saying, anybody
Speaker 1: with half a heart and a human soul says, yeah,
Speaker 1: you need time to fucking be with your family otherwise
Speaker 1: you this is what? How how different is this from
Speaker 1: just like forced labor, indentured serf servitude where you're like, no,
Speaker 1: your whole existence is actually built on you working for me,
Speaker 1: not you having a life funk out of here. But
Speaker 1: you know, because I think most people you haven't seen
Speaker 1: this talked about because I think the steaks are so clear,
Speaker 1: Like every time we talk about these these unions forming
Speaker 1: or disputes they're having with contracts, you'll always hear me like, yep,
Speaker 1: I side with them, Like if I hear about it,
Speaker 1: I'm never being like these people are trying to bite
Speaker 1: off more than they can shoot. No, you're like, damn,
Speaker 1: they're getting violated like that. They're trying to get the
Speaker 1: bare minimum exactly. And you look at places like Bloomberg
Speaker 1: right their front page right now it's actually been overtaken
Speaker 1: by the amtrack closures, but earlier the main headline was
Speaker 1: quote US rail strike risk stoking inflation at worst possible time, Right,
Speaker 1: Like what, Yeah, it's like locking your bike at the
Speaker 1: worst possible time. Yeah, it's this is yeah, callback, call
Speaker 1: a callback. I hope you're taking notes. Like then, there
Speaker 1: are a couple other articles underneath that, not just freight
Speaker 1: the rail strike maybe coming for US commuters. Another one
Speaker 1: crop car shipments set to halt on US rail strike threat.
Speaker 1: White House Ways emergency to create to keep vital goods
Speaker 1: on rails if there's a strike. Not one fucking mention
Speaker 1: that these people are working eighty to ninety our fucking
Speaker 1: weeks can barely see their families, they're in, like working
Speaker 1: unfathomable hours into their sixties and beyond and are still
Speaker 1: you know, we're like, oh, this couldn't come in a
Speaker 1: worse time. You want to borrow the car, you can
Speaker 1: strike this close to an election, right exactly. And that's why,
Speaker 1: and that's why it's interesting it out on Bloomberg their
Speaker 1: friends his opinion Congress won't let a rail dispute cripple
Speaker 1: the US, which means they'll step in and which sounds
Speaker 1: which is pressure, which is pressure. You know, because the
Speaker 1: railroads know what it is, they can force Congress's hand
Speaker 1: because they have the ability to be like, all right,
Speaker 1: well this is the contract. I'm sorry, that's it. That's that.
Speaker 1: And they're counting on that rather than just you know,
Speaker 1: taking the fucking millions of millions of dollars they make
Speaker 1: and just making a couple of couple million less. So
Speaker 1: these people can, you know, maybe work like fucking seventy
Speaker 1: work weeks. I don't know what the fuck, but yeah,
Speaker 1: and I think they know. And with this constant thing
Speaker 1: because a lot of the rail the railroads have told
Speaker 1: shipping companies, hey, we can't take certain kinds of cargo
Speaker 1: because we've got to prepare for this strike, and that's
Speaker 1: already affecting the markets. And they know, oh see, and
Speaker 1: they got election coming up. If I fucking hold the
Speaker 1: economy hostage as an employer, let's see what happens. All
Speaker 1: of Dark's owning news outlets will be the death of
Speaker 1: of of us all. I really believe that because because
Speaker 1: it's it's as simple as that. Now, you know that
Speaker 1: guy bought CNN. You know, it's like, this is not
Speaker 1: People still are trying to take these outlets seriously. And
Speaker 1: as long as billionaires are allowed to buy like multiple outlets,
Speaker 1: and you know, I mean the fair or what do
Speaker 1: you call it, the old rules of media ownership, you know,
Speaker 1: are essential. I mean, like this is the thing. It's
Speaker 1: like what those headlines you're reading, you know, it's like
Speaker 1: that's all because billionaires only goddamn newspaper. I mean, otherwise
Speaker 1: it would be I mean whatever, the headline would be different, right,
Speaker 1: And also all the speculation. I just wrote my most
Speaker 1: recent Advice King column about one of those New York
Speaker 1: Times op ed writers who like not to mention all
Speaker 1: the sub stack. Motherfucker's these old white dudes who are
Speaker 1: like talking about you know, do people understand the value
Speaker 1: of work? And it's like, fuck you, motherfucker's like, you know,
Speaker 1: it's like the New York Times, it was under different
Speaker 1: ownership would not allow these people to speculate about this nonsense.
Speaker 1: That's not a question of like whether people want to work.
Speaker 1: It's a question of what's the quality of the fucking work.
Speaker 1: It's not it's it's it's like you give someone a
Speaker 1: job with absolutely. I mean, it's just it's a dishonest argument.
Speaker 1: Nobody doesn't want to work. Also, it's a dishonest argument
Speaker 1: because you have to work in a capitalist society or
Speaker 1: you're on the fucking street. All that's happening is everybody
Speaker 1: is like facing like, well, at the moment, I don't
Speaker 1: really feel like having my life ruined, so I guess
Speaker 1: I'll take money from my mom or all moved into
Speaker 1: mom's house. I mean, that's what's happening, if anything. But
Speaker 1: there's nobody who's got the luxury of being like I
Speaker 1: don't think I want to work in America. That doesn't exist.
Speaker 1: So it's a false discussion. It's just a matter of
Speaker 1: do you want to fucking drive your own car to
Speaker 1: deliver sandwiches, you know, while you're paying off student loans.
Speaker 1: And that's not a question of that's not a referendum
Speaker 1: on whether or not people like like the think work
Speaker 1: is noball or whatever it is that these fucking rich
Speaker 1: people think people sit around doing it's it's all the
Speaker 1: it's all these like tool tools don't work anymore, like
Speaker 1: shaming people into being like, well, nobody wants to work anymore.
Speaker 1: And that's why I think there's like that whole push
Speaker 1: back to quiet quitting too, which is like they caught
Speaker 1: wind of the fact that people are like just setting
Speaker 1: boundaries in their own minds with how they like survive
Speaker 1: the toil of working, and they're like, whoa, there's a
Speaker 1: way that you can get quiet fired too. You know what.
Speaker 1: It doesn't or like people don't give a funk because
Speaker 1: like to Chris, your point, the if right now, just
Speaker 1: like it's this or beyond the street, So I'll make
Speaker 1: that work, like however fucking way I have to. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean it's it's it's just, um, I've been alive
Speaker 1: for the whole thing, you know. I remember I remember
Speaker 1: when when Temple were like people were working forty hours
Speaker 1: a week and they were calling it temp work, you know,
Speaker 1: and I knew that something was wrong. You know, that
Speaker 1: was the early nineties. I didn't know that it would
Speaker 1: lead to absolutely stripping every benefit in the world. But
Speaker 1: I knew, and we all knew, and we're talking about
Speaker 1: back then like this is bullshit, like but realizing that
Speaker 1: we were powerless. And that's the problem is there's no
Speaker 1: you know, if there's no union, and I think about
Speaker 1: show business, you know, all these like people who want
Speaker 1: to be in show business at this point, it's like,
Speaker 1: do you even want to be an artist or you
Speaker 1: just want to be safe? Show business has strong unions.
Speaker 1: The reason why people get paid and fucking show business
Speaker 1: is because of union. There was no fucking union, like,
Speaker 1: no SAG, no, whatever the funk else there after? If
Speaker 1: there was no afterra I'm I'm actually, um, what do
Speaker 1: you call it when you're SAG eligible? Wendell Berry? No?
Speaker 1: Was it? Was it? Yes? That's taft totally for life.
Speaker 1: I got that bad Berry for life. Never get that
Speaker 1: second gig. Well, Chris as always truly a pleasure of
Speaker 1: having you, man, Where can people find you? Follow you
Speaker 1: all that? I like the way you just cut me
Speaker 1: off hardcore. Sorry, I don't care. I don't care. I
Speaker 1: like I need it. I need it. I'm gonna keep
Speaker 1: talking about this stuff as soon after I turn off
Speaker 1: our zoom by myself. And that's why to a water
Speaker 1: ski there's a water ski in the corner. I sail
Speaker 1: this ship too. You heard that, right, yeah right, you're
Speaker 1: mucking motherfucking water ski. I'm weeping. You're art of the problem.

Speaker 1: there's some there's some good ones. Uh. First one is
Speaker 1: from Luisa at Luisa the last tweeted and I just
Speaker 1: really resonated. Babysitting a four year old has convinced me
Speaker 1: that video games are What video games need is a
Speaker 1: little buddy mode where a kid can have a character
Speaker 1: that just kind of jogs along with you and can
Speaker 1: help Slash get their own encouraging score, but cannot be harmed.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, a good idea. Yeah, Like, honestly, I

Speaker 1: You heard that was your little brother. Yeah, my little brother.
Speaker 1: I tuked him over. I cheated. I just put my fucking,
Speaker 1: you know, my fucking little car or top hat or

Speaker 1: looking right now, but I it's I just I think America.
Speaker 1: This is someone named Aaron Handling is actually an American says,
Speaker 1: I don't think fucking hell, I don't. Oh. I think
Speaker 1: Americans significantly underestimate how much the ordinary British person hates Americans.
Speaker 1: And I know that's accurate because I want to England
Speaker 1: one time and I did her personal study that the
Speaker 1: hand old man, Oh that was I went into this
Speaker 1: fucking shoe store because it's back in the nineties. I
Speaker 1: was trying to buy grunge boots and they had like old,
Speaker 1: like military boots in there. And I had like a
Speaker 1: fire doors guide to London sticking into my front pocket
Speaker 1: and I didn't know and fucking guy behind the counter,
Speaker 1: what do you fucking talk to me? And he was
Speaker 1: like some old r AF pilot kind of you know
Speaker 1: what I mean. He was just but his face was
Speaker 1: like purple, and I was like, I just want some boots.
Speaker 1: He made me talk to his nine year old daughter
Speaker 1: and she sold me the boots. He wouldn't even speak
Speaker 1: to me. So this is true. I mean that I
Speaker 1: had one experience in England, and I know everything about England.
Speaker 1: I've been a few times, but the worst was by
Speaker 1: far during the Iraq War. I went in two thousand
Speaker 1: five and I was like, I was telling people I
Speaker 1: was Japanese. I was, I'm not. Well they had there.
Speaker 1: They had a good reason at that time. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean just in general, like you don't you don't really
Speaker 1: want to go around advertising you're in America. Yeah, so fun,
Speaker 1: Queen Elizabeth. I get the feeling. The guy, the owner
Speaker 1: that shoes the store would would not be thrilled. He's
