Speaker 1: to say. Um, that's fine. Yeah, that's also I feel
Speaker 1: like the flag that they had over her coffin looked
Speaker 1: like a black light poster. I don't even see. You
Speaker 1: didn't wake up at four in the morning and just observe,
Speaker 1: just quiet, light a candle, keep all the other lights
Speaker 1: off in your house and just watch. I did, but
Speaker 1: it was seven am my time, so that's the only
Speaker 1: reason why I was able to wake up to do
Speaker 1: it before is asking a lot. Yeah, Oh, I thought
Speaker 1: they had a Maryland state flag on it. It didn't. Marylands.
Speaker 1: I was like, all right, okay, go terps Bach, Steve
Speaker 1: Francie's Fan. Yeah, he went to Blair Um. They called
Speaker 1: him the enterprise instead of franchise because it's Britain. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: who is that for? It's for the it's for that
Speaker 1: group of very well educated terrapins and eastern rockets. Is
Speaker 1: that we went right? Yeah, he went well. I think
Speaker 1: he was drafted by the Grizzlies. Um, we're talking about,
Speaker 1: of course, about point guard. Um, one of the great,
Speaker 1: most most exciting effort ever engine league. Just like incredible vertical.
Speaker 1: I think he was six one, but like he would
Speaker 1: jump over people's heads just to shoot a three. Um. Yeah,
Speaker 1: was a blast to watch in his early days, for sure. UH,
Speaker 1: stevie franchise. Steve Francis, great nickname, great basketball nickname. But anyway,
Speaker 1: for the record, she did not have a Maryland state
Speaker 1: flag on her coffin, even though that's what I thought
Speaker 1: from a far. Did we fact check that? Are We
Speaker 1: sure about that? You know, I will do that. Actually,
Speaker 1: you know, I don't want to go out there and
Speaker 1: taking Christian. I am poor of the of a bunch Um. Well, Blake,
Speaker 1: it's truly great to have you um, as always. Congratulations.
Speaker 1: By the way, you are a married man. Is that?
Speaker 1: Is that something that we talk about? Or Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I can talk. Yeah, I'M A managing manager. Like make
Speaker 1: you keep it a secret because, like a K pop thing,
Speaker 1: it's one of those things where we don't like talking
Speaker 1: about my sex life because as an actor. It makes,
Speaker 1: you know, my fans confused where it's like, if I
Speaker 1: play a single guy, I might not be casted in
Speaker 1: it because I'm just so associated with being a married man.
Speaker 1: I think that's kind of always been my vibe, is
Speaker 1: married man anyway. So there's really no shift, but thank you. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's been uh yeah, my my fiance, who was my
Speaker 1: girlfriend before that, and a friend, uh yeah, and then
Speaker 1: an acquaintance before that and a classmate, I believe, your classmate,
Speaker 1: former classmate school, married a former stranger, former stranger, current
Speaker 1: acquaintance and wife. Uh Yeah, I know. We got married
Speaker 1: in Philly and late July and then we went to
Speaker 1: Portugal for or honeymoon, which was amazing. So I'm a
Speaker 1: big Porto fan now that that happened, and and it's
Speaker 1: what a time to be a fan. They've they're on
Speaker 1: fire right now. What the franchises burning to the ground.
Speaker 1: But yeah, no, it's been it's been great. So, yeah,
Speaker 1: we had amazing we went to the asors which, uh,
Speaker 1: is one of the coolest places I've ever been in
Speaker 1: my entire life. I don't know if you guys ever
Speaker 1: been there and know anything about it, but that's that's
Speaker 1: a recommendation where it wasn't too expensive either. It's an
Speaker 1: island chain in the middle of the Atlantic. It's like
Speaker 1: basically Hawaii, but it's just straight up in the is
Speaker 1: it like why? In the sense that no fucking tourists
Speaker 1: need to go there anymore. I guess delicate infrastructure. Is Madera,
Speaker 1: one of the Azores. It is like a comp. If
Speaker 1: you yeah, it's Um, I believe it's north. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: it's a good island comp. If we're doing island comps,
Speaker 1: there's Hawaii, is the Pacific version, and if we're doing
Speaker 1: an Atlantic Ocean comp, but or yeah, it's in there,
Speaker 1: but no, it's in there's direct flights from the United States,
Speaker 1: from like Boston and new work. So yeah, it was
Speaker 1: I don't need to get into the the economics of it.
Speaker 1: It was a beautiful, romantic time and like more than
Speaker 1: talking about that place, like you could leave from Newark
Speaker 1: if you wanted. Well, what about there? He's like, well,
Speaker 1: that's the thing I love about it. You could leave
Speaker 1: from Newark, the most romantic airport. What does it look like?
Speaker 1: They're yeah, it's like any recommendation to relate back to
Speaker 1: Newark in one way or another. So I do appreciate
Speaker 1: you doing that. Um. All right, before we get to
Speaker 1: getting to know you a little bit better, we're gonna
Speaker 1: tell our listeners a couple of things. We're talking about
Speaker 1: very spooky ship at a trump Ohio rally over the weekend.
Speaker 1: It seems like he's going full blasts, embracing the que
Speaker 1: on on of it all. Um, a lot of these
Speaker 1: like one finger salutes that, uh, I don't know, I
Speaker 1: think we're fucked. Uh. So we'll talk about that. We'll
Speaker 1: talk about King Charles the third, the new monarch of England,
Speaker 1: and why? A chuck three, Chuck Three, Republic enemy. He's
Speaker 1: a probably a big fan of that reference. and Uh yeah,
Speaker 1: he's Um it's it's gonna be entertaining to watch him
Speaker 1: hold down the throne because he's a he's a disaster,
Speaker 1: my guy in the truest sense of the word. Um.
Speaker 1: So those are those are kind of the main things
Speaker 1: we're talking about. Plenty more. But first, Blake, we like
Speaker 1: to ask our guest. What is something from your search history?
Speaker 1: Weather today? Sometimes I like to know what the weather
Speaker 1: is and no, Um, I actually looked up dry cleaning
Speaker 1: rights recently. Like what is my rights of rights as
Speaker 1: someone seeking my cleaning to be dried, and we could
Speaker 1: have rearranged those words. But I they like messed up
Speaker 1: a shirt of mine and this was never an issue
Speaker 1: until I got older. Like I don't really get dry
Speaker 1: cleaning us. I go to a wedding or whatever and yeah,
Speaker 1: they just really they lost a shirt and messed up
Speaker 1: another one and they have like a big sign hanging
Speaker 1: up saying we are not responsible for anything that happens.
Speaker 1: But I think the the burden of proof is like
Speaker 1: they have to give reasonable care to your laundry. But
Speaker 1: it's it's one of these things where I don't know who,
Speaker 1: what happened? What happened? What happened? Well, it was a disaster.
Speaker 1: My Guy, he brought something to the dry cleaner and
Speaker 1: then what happened? What? What garment is now fucked? There
Speaker 1: was a lot of makeup, I believe, on my what
Speaker 1: if this ended up being clearly on like having an affair?
Speaker 1: I'm like, there was a lot of makeup and on
Speaker 1: my collar that they put on there, I don't know,
Speaker 1: and scent of a strong perfume. No, but there was
Speaker 1: like actual like just weird. I don't know if it
Speaker 1: was makeup or just your makeup? Do you wear neck makeup?
Speaker 1: Cover your vampire bite exactly, and it's aging at a
Speaker 1: at a rapid rate, a rate ten times quicker than
Speaker 1: the rest of my body. So I do apply a
Speaker 1: very generous amount of makeup to my neck. There's a
Speaker 1: lot on it right now. But Um, yeah, so there's
Speaker 1: tons of makeup, like other Brown like we or maybe
Speaker 1: it's hair dye or something. I don't know what it like.
Speaker 1: I was just picturing Banni's head leaking right, right, right,
Speaker 1: and it's that pigment, you know, that pigment that you
Speaker 1: can get on a swatch when you're painting the walls
Speaker 1: of your house, Giuliani drip, and so, yeah, I don't
Speaker 1: know what to do. I don't like confrontations, so I'm
Speaker 1: trying to figure out. Do I go in with a
Speaker 1: plan with my I might sue them. Yeah, I might
Speaker 1: bring Indocino into it, and it's a class action suit.
Speaker 1: But yeah, that's the type of soup, by the way,
Speaker 1: that I was wearing. It's a class action. Don't all
Speaker 1: write me. I'm a guest. You know, I don't know
Speaker 1: how to pivot off of that joke. I was mildly impressed.
Speaker 1: For Hey, Blake, what's something you think is overrated? I'M
Speaker 1: gonna go back to how I'm being treated. Um, I
Speaker 1: think overrated stopping for food, like on a road trip
Speaker 1: where I know a lot of people. Um, you know,
Speaker 1: it's part of the journey. They like to bake in. Oh,
Speaker 1: we'll stop in a R yeah, yeah, beautiful down, Beautiful Arby's,
Speaker 1: like local color. Like, what are the Arby's like around here?
Speaker 1: They do. There is a range from Arby's to Arby's,
Speaker 1: of course. And but yeah, no, I I've tried to
Speaker 1: do it and I can't enjoy it. Like stop it
Speaker 1: like a cool roadside like diner or whatever, and it's
Speaker 1: just never worth it. I'm just too stressed. I'd rather
Speaker 1: just go to the destination that I'm trying yeah, it's
Speaker 1: overrated because you're like, I prioritize just getting the funk
Speaker 1: out of this car at my destination. Yeah, that like
Speaker 1: because it's still hanging over your head the rest of
Speaker 1: the trip and you you're going to a place for
Speaker 1: a reason, probably because it's cool. So why not spend
Speaker 1: more time in the cool place that you're trying to
Speaker 1: get to? Then roll the dice at a place that's
Speaker 1: near a highway. You know, I'm sure I'm like that too.
Speaker 1: I will I don't, I will not stop the car
Speaker 1: to eat. I will slow it down to go through
Speaker 1: a drive through, but like sitting down, I get the
Speaker 1: same thing. I mean like I'm like I don't, I
Speaker 1: don't like driving long distances, so I want this to
Speaker 1: be fucking done with. Um. Yeah, the one time I
Speaker 1: remember being like on a group trip and we stopped
Speaker 1: at the place like right outside where James Dean died,
Speaker 1: and it was like to eat here and I was
Speaker 1: like I don't give them about James Dean. Can we
Speaker 1: get to Oakland please? Didn't cut out. Yeah, yeah, a
Speaker 1: tree or something. It's it's like a town, a small town,
Speaker 1: has sprung up where he died to be like the
Speaker 1: James Dean economy. Yeah, just driving too fast. Yeah, it's
Speaker 1: like right in the middle of the desert. It's crazy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's just that it's just cool. I don't know. And
Speaker 1: in that place I was actively being like like I
Speaker 1: was just like, how's the food? I'm like, I don't know, man,
Speaker 1: it's fine, like we get the funk out of here,
Speaker 1: because I was just like I don't get by James Dean.
Speaker 1: Can we get the funk out the car? Definitely, like
Speaker 1: had a had an impressive array of Jerkys at that.
Speaker 1: At that. Yeah, stop at the James Dean Death Branch
Speaker 1: cafe or something. Yeah, Um, anyways, I I look forward
Speaker 1: to it because it's like one of the few times
Speaker 1: that I permit myself to have like fast food. Yeah, yeah, so, yeah,
Speaker 1: and when when I see a Taco Bell like off
Speaker 1: the side, I don't know, there's something exciting about it
Speaker 1: for me. Uh, and then I have to stop every
Speaker 1: fifteen minutes afterwards. Ship. So, Um, it was really inefficient.
Speaker 1: S H I T. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, the kids.
Speaker 1: What's up? What's the T A L O v E
Speaker 1: R T T P l e t what some of
Speaker 1: you think is underrated? Underrated gravel bikes, which, Um, is
Speaker 1: a type of bike, in between bike. Yeah, the in
Speaker 1: between bike. It's like more comfortable, because I was shopping
Speaker 1: for a bicycle and I was trying to decide. I've
Speaker 1: been like cycling a lot more and I wanted to
Speaker 1: up my bike game. So I was looking at these
Speaker 1: really expensive bikes and I'm like, I don't really know
Speaker 1: if I can spend this type, because bikes are really expensive.
Speaker 1: If I can spend this money on it. And basically,
Speaker 1: what I was told is that for what I do,
Speaker 1: like what fifty to sixties, seventy miles or a week
Speaker 1: or whatever, like, it's good to have. Yeah, that's right,
Speaker 1: and that's and yeah, where are you going to give
Speaker 1: up your car? No, I'm sorry, I have I drive
Speaker 1: it around on car. I got a bike for my
Speaker 1: car and I put on my car and I drive
Speaker 1: it around. Fifty seven. Do you keep the doometer on
Speaker 1: so that like it just that you're riding that fast?
Speaker 1: This so cool. I put on the Apple Watch, Um,
Speaker 1: and so, basically, I what I learned is that a
Speaker 1: gravel bike, especially now, because streets are just such awful
Speaker 1: ship and you are so streets are gravel with big
Speaker 1: holes in them. And essentially it has a larger, slightly
Speaker 1: larger tire and it's a hybrid, so you can still
Speaker 1: go fast on the road if you want to, like,
Speaker 1: you know, if that's something you're into, but also when
Speaker 1: you go to these bumpy, more hazardous terrain things, you
Speaker 1: know like you are still comfortable, like you're not going
Speaker 1: to be shaken out of your mind. So, yeah, if
Speaker 1: you're looking for a bike and you're not trying to
Speaker 1: like enter a major race, I I've really, really enjoyed it.
Speaker 1: Gravel bike. It's a road bike you don't have to
Speaker 1: trip about if you start seeing dirt in front of you,
Speaker 1: and it's a mountain bike that won't feel super fucking
Speaker 1: slow just on asphalt. Ye, perfectly put. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Uh.
Speaker 1: And look shout at all the bikes that gang, because
Speaker 1: I was. I was also I got a bike recently,
Speaker 1: but I got electric bike just to kind of like
Speaker 1: zip around like where I live so I don't have
Speaker 1: to use my car. I was also looking at that thing.
Speaker 1: My God, Damn, these bikes for so much fucking money.
Speaker 1: But then at the end of the day you're like,
Speaker 1: if I'M gonna put a lot of time on it,
Speaker 1: then like you can kind of begin to rationalize, like
Speaker 1: why a quality bike is that? Yeah, I'm not. I don't.
Speaker 1: It will be a long time since I buy a
Speaker 1: bike that is thousands of dollars. Is there anyway? Just
Speaker 1: everything is expensive right now, like I I feel like
Speaker 1: everyone everyone I talked to WHO's like in the market
Speaker 1: for something like my car, leas is coming up and
Speaker 1: I like went and met with a Volvo dealer and
Speaker 1: they were like yeah, so you're looking at like it'll
Speaker 1: be like to at least two times what you used
Speaker 1: to pay for the current car for the past three years,
Speaker 1: like at least two times. They're like yeah, it's just
Speaker 1: the way the market is right now, is it? Well,
Speaker 1: cars are right now, especially because of the tech supply
Speaker 1: chain and stuff, but that's definitely taken it. Where are
Speaker 1: we trusting that? I feel like we just gave everybody
Speaker 1: the license. We were just like inflation, and then everyone
Speaker 1: was like dope and raise their prices like three times
Speaker 1: the I still go by the same thing where I'm
Speaker 1: like if it's too much, I'm like no, no, no,
Speaker 1: I'm doing that right. I'm good, I'm good. I went
Speaker 1: to this one place where they were showing me a bike.
Speaker 1: It was six thousand dollars and in my vanity I'm
Speaker 1: like maybe these big legs of mine deserve at which
Speaker 1: is not even it would financially ruin me at my
Speaker 1: body like legs like those, Nah, you're gonna need one
Speaker 1: of these six thousand dollar guys. And then I started
Speaker 1: blushing and I lost my ability to see and that's
Speaker 1: how that's how you get me. And and they have
Speaker 1: like electric like the brakes were, the shifters were electrics,
Speaker 1: so you don't have to press the shifter too hard.
Speaker 1: And there's still a bike that you peddle much luxury,
Speaker 1: which is crazy. It's a crazy luxury. And I went
Speaker 1: to this place called a t x bikes in Austin
Speaker 1: and they like found me a bike. He's like, you
Speaker 1: don't need any of this ship, like just get this bike,
Speaker 1: and I did. It just spike, like take those plumpers
Speaker 1: coming out of your pelvis and put them on this
Speaker 1: bike and I was like that's the most disgusting way
Speaker 1: to speak I've heard. Oh Man, uh, let's see. And so,
Speaker 1: all right, let's take a quick break, we'll come back.
Speaker 1: We'll talk about the return of Q. and we're back.
Speaker 1: And Yeah, I'm still reeling from we're gonna just push through. Um,
Speaker 1: you guys have to bleep it out. It's like not
Speaker 1: technically a first word, but more upsetting than anything like that.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna text at like three hours after this recording,
Speaker 1: like who the fund just says, like what? Anyways, um
Speaker 1: about something less setting, which is the American dissolving into
Speaker 1: a weird like death pult God and the Turd Reich,
Speaker 1: and Reich has a q on the end of it
Speaker 1: is upon us, y'all. I did not know what you
Speaker 1: were going for their but Turd rich, I can read
Speaker 1: it now. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, not the
Speaker 1: TIRD Ari I Q. Yeah, is this a collab between
Speaker 1: Ari i? Yeah, this is a co OP. It's a
Speaker 1: cult co OP. But you know, he's slowly been embracing
Speaker 1: the Q and on conspiracy theory like since like it
Speaker 1: was clear, like as the election was coming around, he
Speaker 1: started kind of being a little more like a little
Speaker 1: bit at them. Um, you know, this is again for
Speaker 1: those of you who maybe know like that q and
Speaker 1: on is a conspiracy theory, but I don't know exactly
Speaker 1: what they mean by it. It means that the storm
Speaker 1: is coming, a k a trump, becomes God emperor their
Speaker 1: words and will hold like military tribunals to punish pedophile
Speaker 1: Demon Democrats like Biden, Obama, Hillary. You get the point. Susan, Right,
Speaker 1: Oh God, could that's can we make that list of
Speaker 1: other war criminals? Who knows? But he like he's gone
Speaker 1: from sort of like first when people asked about q
Speaker 1: and on and people in his campaign kind of being
Speaker 1: like what was that like, truly not knowing what the
Speaker 1: funk it was, to now full blown like fusion, like
Speaker 1: the two are fusing together now, and things begin to
Speaker 1: really ramp up since the morrow Lagal Raid Um, and
Speaker 1: just like this summer, like is his, I think, legal
Speaker 1: jeopardy became a little more vivid and he saw the group,
Speaker 1: as you know, dedicated people enough to really become a
Speaker 1: problem in physical space and obviously if they're properly inside it,
Speaker 1: which he is looking to do and he's. First he
Speaker 1: started reposting just sort of memes that espouse like q
Speaker 1: talking points, and then him, like images with him wearing
Speaker 1: a Cuban to like full blown videos with all this
Speaker 1: ominus ship playing like this like really heavy music underneath,
Speaker 1: which we'll get to in a second. But he went
Speaker 1: to this rally in Ohio on Saturday to, you know,
Speaker 1: presumably to help J D Vance, uh, you know, run,
Speaker 1: but most of the time just talking shit about Jd Vance,
Speaker 1: about him kissing his ass now and like all this
Speaker 1: other nonsense. Um. But now it's the hill billy elergy
Speaker 1: guy who was like a never trumper Republican, like one
Speaker 1: of the Good Guy Republicans on MSNBC and CNN and
Speaker 1: ship for the first half of the trump presidency and
Speaker 1: then made a made a turn once it became effective, uh,
Speaker 1: very fully for him to for him to be a trumper,
Speaker 1: and now he's now he's a big trump boy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and the rally itself, just sonically, I mean this is
Speaker 1: the rally where, I'm sure you saw the headlines where
Speaker 1: all these people were doing like a half cocked tile Hitler,
Speaker 1: but like we're number one, like arm pose while on
Speaker 1: push speaking very awesome vibes and silently holding up a
Speaker 1: finger in the air towards M it is really eerie
Speaker 1: looking ship like. It is really dark times. As as
Speaker 1: someone who goes on stage for a living, if my
Speaker 1: audience started doing that while I was on stage, like
Speaker 1: I should probably change what I'm doing. You know what
Speaker 1: I mean? Like any that is such a disconcerting any
Speaker 1: gesture in that way, especially one that's reminiscent of a
Speaker 1: Nazi salute, it is just the most horrifying thing that
Speaker 1: you can in silence too, is almost worse than it's
Speaker 1: even hard to watch, like Notre Dame when they win
Speaker 1: a game and they do the Alma Mater at the
Speaker 1: end and they're like they all hold their figures out. uh,
Speaker 1: someone who went to a school that did that. I
Speaker 1: was like, okay, but the rally fucking kicked off before
Speaker 1: trump came out. This is the like son. They were
Speaker 1: like trying to make this the weirdest fucking rally of
Speaker 1: them all. I'm gonna play some of you. I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna say what this music is. I'm just gonna let
Speaker 1: you hear it, because some of you may know this
Speaker 1: song well enough that it will freak you out. But
Speaker 1: this is the music that played before Donald Trump comes
Speaker 1: out at the rally. What the Blake? You know that song?
Speaker 1: I believe that was before he switched to alymp biscuit song. Uh,
Speaker 1: that was the undertaker's walking, walking up W W E theme.
Speaker 1: So that's the fucking that's actually makes it way Lessieri,
Speaker 1: but still like. It's just weird, though, because it's just like,
Speaker 1: because I think it's for someone who doesn't know music
Speaker 1: at all. So the most you'll do is like, dude, oh,
Speaker 1: the undertaker theme. That's booking creepy, like you don't know
Speaker 1: like Carl or for like other maybe classical composers. He
Speaker 1: might have given you a freaky demon vibe. But anyway,
Speaker 1: he comes out. He starts doing the usual ship. He's saying,
Speaker 1: you know, immigrants are monsters, drug dealers should be like
Speaker 1: summarily executed. I finished the border wall for real. Uh.
Speaker 1: And then he got to the last part of his speech,
Speaker 1: and this time he was like the thrust of the
Speaker 1: speech was what he did, like in and like at
Speaker 1: his inauguration, where he's like America's like the streets are
Speaker 1: filled with blood and like it's all fucking creepy. Get Out. Um,
Speaker 1: and he's playing a very dramatic piece of music. So
Speaker 1: this is trump giving his speech about how dark and
Speaker 1: twisted America is, with a score that comes in and
Speaker 1: I'll just let you listen to how fucking weird this
Speaker 1: whole ship sounds. But now we are a nation in decline,
Speaker 1: we are a failing nation. We are a nation that
Speaker 1: has the highest inflation in fifty years and of the
Speaker 1: stock market finished the worst first half of the year
Speaker 1: since eighteen seventy two. I remember that. Um, he goes on. Dude,
Speaker 1: this speech went on on. Here's another part. Just keeps
Speaker 1: going with this. Music is not being added. We're a
Speaker 1: nation that no longer has a free press. How about
Speaker 1: this one? Keeps Ping them off. We will not bend,
Speaker 1: we will not break, we will not yield, we will
Speaker 1: never give in, we will never give up, we will never, ever, ever,
Speaker 1: ever back down. Anyway, while this has happened, that there
Speaker 1: was another ever in there, but exactly four ever. Come on,
Speaker 1: five ever girls, five ever. Um, the whole crowd. You
Speaker 1: saw people just doing this, putting up one hand with
Speaker 1: their index finger out, while he was speaking, and I was,
Speaker 1: like all the like journalists that were there, like there's
Speaker 1: some weird ship going on in here right now, like
Speaker 1: people are like suddenly putting their fingers in the air. Uh,
Speaker 1: and a lot of people like a people who are
Speaker 1: pretty up on q and on ship. They started looking
Speaker 1: at how a lot of the Q influence, influencers, started
Speaker 1: talking and a lot of them started pointing there like,
Speaker 1: Oh my God, this is that track W W G,
Speaker 1: one W G A, like where we go, one we
Speaker 1: go all, which is their model, like their mantra as
Speaker 1: a fucking conspiracy theory, and this is like this track
Speaker 1: that's really well known. I Gat for q people and
Speaker 1: they were like, Oh my God, where he's he's playing
Speaker 1: the fucking theme music, like while he's giving this speech,
Speaker 1: and the guy the main like that one q influencer
Speaker 1: who's behind our favorite JFK, will return a conspiracy theory
Speaker 1: where he saw Michael Jackson on drum at that rolling
Speaker 1: stones concert. Rolling Stones are also actually dead. You know,
Speaker 1: he was there and he was at the rally and
Speaker 1: he said quote. During the song, we had a powerful
Speaker 1: moment where our group held up one finger, a call
Speaker 1: for unity, acknowledging, acknowledgement of our one God. Where we
Speaker 1: go one, we go all and more. It was magical
Speaker 1: and completely planned, as many of the in the crowd
Speaker 1: joined us in the gesture, a gesture to say this
Speaker 1: to this beautiful man where with you. His people are
Speaker 1: saying we didn't play that track. It's actually another track
Speaker 1: called mirrors, but some, like musicologists and like other people,
Speaker 1: like side by side, played the tracks and they're they're
Speaker 1: the identical. So they're kind of using that like women like, well,
Speaker 1: it's not that one, but if you listen to you
Speaker 1: like that's the same fuck it like, quite literally, is
Speaker 1: the same track, just with a different name. It was
Speaker 1: a song that was called mirrors that, like q and on,
Speaker 1: took and put on like a q and on mixtape. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: and God and renamed it to be just you know,
Speaker 1: they have no use for truth or like what you know,
Speaker 1: so they were just like, yeah, this is actually our
Speaker 1: song that we we wrote, put it on a mixtape
Speaker 1: and it is now known as where we go, when
Speaker 1: we go, we go all among everybody who believes in Q,
Speaker 1: and obviously that is the intended effect of of this trump. Trump.
Speaker 1: Playing it, I mean playing any music over the end
Speaker 1: of the speech is very strange, unless it's quite literally
Speaker 1: the last sentence of it and it's like d like
Speaker 1: you're trying to go out on something, maybe, but like
Speaker 1: to be like I'm gonna make a movie. Happen Right
Speaker 1: now is but you know what has the intended effect, clearly,
Speaker 1: because now many people are like buzzing about this like
Speaker 1: sort of open faced embrace of this conspiracy theory and
Speaker 1: what it all means. And it couldn't happen at a
Speaker 1: fucking worse time like in the last two weeks we've
Speaker 1: seen all kinds of q related violence from people who
Speaker 1: are huge believers in the conspiracy theory, where, you know,
Speaker 1: from murder to making threats with firearms. What was the
Speaker 1: somebody like killed their family or something because you have
Speaker 1: que beliefs. Yeah, like that was sort of the end
Speaker 1: point with their just obsession with the conspiracy theory. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's really scary. It's I mean he's fantasized on multiple
Speaker 1: occasions about having Nazi like en rolls and supporters who,
Speaker 1: you know, give him the attention that Hitler commanded when
Speaker 1: he would speak. So like this just seems like it
Speaker 1: plays directly into the path that he's always wanted to
Speaker 1: be on. Like, I saw a headline somewhere over the
Speaker 1: weekend there was saying something to the effect of a
Speaker 1: second trump administration would be more of the same, but worse.
Speaker 1: And I really think we're failing to understand like he
Speaker 1: he has given up on any any idea that like
Speaker 1: he's not he's going to be anything but a military dictator. If,
Speaker 1: if he wins office again, it's going to be straight
Speaker 1: up behaving like a dictator from the very start. That's
Speaker 1: it's it's not going to look like his first term,
Speaker 1: nor is it gonna look like any other term in
Speaker 1: the history of US presidencies. If if he's actually elective. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's yeah, I mean the first president was the one
Speaker 1: that his first administration was one and he'd be like, Oh,
Speaker 1: I can't do that right, and the second time he's
Speaker 1: gonna be like I know why and let me just
Speaker 1: burn push right through that, because that's, you know, the
Speaker 1: first time I sucked up by not just completely burning
Speaker 1: it down. Gravel Bikes, those are core r yeah, they
Speaker 1: will be in the I mean pretty good for the
Speaker 1: apocalypse too. You may just want to go to that
Speaker 1: may be wishful thinking if you would only need a
Speaker 1: gravel bike in the coming apocalypse. But yeah, just more
Speaker 1: desperation from trump and I think as everything gets more
Speaker 1: vivid for him in terms of what his like legal
Speaker 1: liability is, it's only going to get more and more
Speaker 1: bizarre and fucking creepy and undertaker ship, because it clearly
Speaker 1: resonates like, I mean, these people are really they're like
Speaker 1: Holy Shit, like Oh, he knows. I mean the hope
Speaker 1: is that this is a bridge too far for most people, Um,
Speaker 1: and that like because of his unique brand of pathological,
Speaker 1: like almost debilitating narcissism, rual death cult and you know,
Speaker 1: all all these things coming together will lead people to
Speaker 1: be like, okay, you have convinced of the country that
Speaker 1: like this is the way forward. Unfortunately, that is not
Speaker 1: not enough to win the presidency. On the other hand,
Speaker 1: they have a massive propaganda like engine that is going
Speaker 1: to be fully churning out misinformation from now until the
Speaker 1: day that he runs for president, which is happening. Uh
Speaker 1: Ron de Santis. I feel like people are almost hoping
Speaker 1: at this point that he's going to come through. But
Speaker 1: Ron de Santis, first of all, is also horrifying, but
Speaker 1: also I don't think it's going to be able to
Speaker 1: beat trump and a republican primary. That popularity contest is
Speaker 1: going to be. I mean, who knows? That people gift.
Speaker 1: They really think. They want to step to them and
Speaker 1: see if they can what ends up happening there. But yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: either way, I mean like to pick your take your pick.
Speaker 1: They're all pretty much trying to go full speed into
Speaker 1: the same sort of nightmare scenario where it's like, man,
Speaker 1: people that matter even fucking less, just so you know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and maybe it'll get worse before it comes to an
Speaker 1: election because, like you said, there's like what they believe
Speaker 1: at their core is that, you know, this is a
Speaker 1: war that they're involved in, and a ton of just
Speaker 1: wild shit about everybody who's not a que believer or
Speaker 1: just or even not Christian. I mean the same way
Speaker 1: Lauren Boeboerd is out here saying stuff like all the
Speaker 1: Christians need to know, like we're like we have a
Speaker 1: mission on a mission from God, and not in the
Speaker 1: Blues Brothers Way, like they're trying to fucking believe that
Speaker 1: they are supposed to inherit this country and lead it
Speaker 1: into this, you know, theocracy. So you know, keep your
Speaker 1: eye out, keep your eye out. Oh, one of the
Speaker 1: things that guy who wrote that album the Q, and
Speaker 1: on mixtape it was called silver cloud five, which I'm
Speaker 1: sure probably has to do with like pem trails or
Speaker 1: some weird ship. But there are two tracks on there
Speaker 1: that were the name of this one. These tracks, one
Speaker 1: was called Q. Send Me Que, send me darling. You
Speaker 1: Q Darling, okay, and the other there was another one
Speaker 1: called ANTIFA. assholes. There you go. Anyway, don't buy them,
Speaker 1: don't don't give this person any money. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: pirate that ship if you want to hear it. I
Speaker 1: mean those spotify residuals are so much money that we
Speaker 1: don't want to fund them with their point zero two cents.
Speaker 1: But yeah, I do wonder too. It's almost like sad
Speaker 1: fanboys ship where them saying the q people saying like,
Speaker 1: Oh my God, trump knows, he knows, he doesn't know
Speaker 1: who you are. He's susceptible to flattery and his handlers
Speaker 1: and his campaign know how to capitalize off the q movement.
Speaker 1: Trump himself see people in trump jerseys, you know, like
Speaker 1: he's like, Oh, they like me, they like what I'm doing,
Speaker 1: but doesn't really understand. I would imagine more than that.
Speaker 1: But it's his machine that knows how to Ye and
Speaker 1: we've talked about just how all the time. Like the
Speaker 1: policy is like when they need more voter like energy,
Speaker 1: you just turn the heat up hotter on the grossest
Speaker 1: takes you got and just just still just cook that
Speaker 1: down into the grossest fucking people where. Now it's like
Speaker 1: I gotta energize the xenophobes, the fucking homophobes, the people
Speaker 1: who like forced birth, conspiracy, theorists, and then I'm like,
Speaker 1: I don't even know what the wrungs lower than that
Speaker 1: are going to be, like Nazi flat earthers or whatever,
Speaker 1: like it's just gonna be, you know, to continue to
Speaker 1: try and Eke out more support from these people. While
Speaker 1: completely ignoring, like what you know, most people here. I'll
Speaker 1: tell you he's not going to get the gravel bike users. Okay,
Speaker 1: as a group we're not gonna hop on that. Man.
Speaker 1: I've seen those outdoor biking trails communities. I feel like
Speaker 1: I've seen some cut, some jam band and is mixed
Speaker 1: in there. What am I promoting? All right, let's take
Speaker 1: a quick break. We'll come back and we will talk,
Speaker 1: we will laugh and point in another country. Um, finally,
Speaker 1: and we're back. and Um. So the queen's funeral obviously
Speaker 1: happened over the past like two weeks. Yeah, just ongoing. Um,
Speaker 1: the the amount the outpouring in the street was, I think,
Speaker 1: surprising to a lot of people, just how many people
Speaker 1: were willing to wait to watch the coffin and go by,
Speaker 1: Um and just to get get a glimpse throw flowers
Speaker 1: in the general direction. Um. And so one piece of
Speaker 1: context that I had somewhat missed amid the massive propaganda
Speaker 1: push is that they believe they are in trouble, the
Speaker 1: royal family as an institution. For literal decades they've been like,
Speaker 1: what are we gonna do when she dies? Her son
Speaker 1: is like a walking piece of anti monarchy, propaganda. You
Speaker 1: can't spell the whole word, but the clip of him
Speaker 1: almost dissolving into tears over a fountain pen leaking and
Speaker 1: then saying I can't bear this bloody thing. What they
Speaker 1: do every stinking time. Um, referring to pens, I guess. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I've never related to someone more in my entire life
Speaker 1: to him in that moment. There's just certain products that suck,
Speaker 1: you know, like what do you like? Switch to a feather.
Speaker 1: What they do every geting time. I tip there. This
Speaker 1: bloody thing is so dramatic. Um gets a real decision making.
Speaker 1: My man, exactly. This was the things we see in
Speaker 1: this twenty second clip. Put It, I think it's an
Speaker 1: instant classic and it's kind of on the level of
Speaker 1: funk it. We'll do it live, the Bill O'Reilly Um,
Speaker 1: you know, where he gets really frustrated, but it's like
Speaker 1: not clear, but like he's he's just venting about something,
Speaker 1: something that he's fucking up. Um. In this case, we
Speaker 1: opened the clip with him saying what is it? September,
Speaker 1: and his wife saying two days off. My Guy, it's
Speaker 1: actually also you signed the twelfth earlier, dumb, dumb Um,
Speaker 1: and your your whole job is just to like sit
Speaker 1: there and sign official documents. That's your that's your whole job,
Speaker 1: and you immediately like got just the pen exploded on
Speaker 1: your hand. He like storms off in a huff saying
Speaker 1: he can't bear the bloody thing, and then I guess
Speaker 1: she has to like stinking, stinking time. So there was
Speaker 1: this review in the New York or which I read, uh,
Speaker 1: because I'm very cultured about it was a book. They
Speaker 1: were reviewing, a book by a royalist, so somebody who
Speaker 1: like is really into the institution, and it is just
Speaker 1: exhibits a through Z of why the monarchy is bad
Speaker 1: for society and for like the modern world, but especially
Speaker 1: for the development of this human being in particular Um.
Speaker 1: But I think for the purposes of like entertainment and
Speaker 1: a like documentary satire of privilege and inequality and conservative values,
Speaker 1: he is going to be like a Truman show esque
Speaker 1: creation that has just been like perfectly marinated to undermine
Speaker 1: everything about this institution. So the book starts out with
Speaker 1: this author dealing with the fact that everybody in England
Speaker 1: is like Charles should just bypass it and give it
Speaker 1: to his son, because his son is charming and Charles is.
Speaker 1: We don't like him. We don't really don't like Charles
Speaker 1: and this writer's whole point is like that would be
Speaker 1: democracy and that is the exact opposite of what they
Speaker 1: claim to stand for. Like, when you think about like
Speaker 1: their whole thing is that like the opposite of democracy.
Speaker 1: And so if they did that because the son is
Speaker 1: more likable, that completely subverts the whole thing. But because
Speaker 1: he's so unlikable in such a disaster that he can't
Speaker 1: sign a paper without having a Temperat, I think they're
Speaker 1: going to like shotgun wedding him onto the throne. Like
Speaker 1: Queen Elizabeth. There was an eighteen month morning period before
Speaker 1: she took the royal whatever's. But he's gonna I think
Speaker 1: they're planning to just really shotgun him, wedding him onto
Speaker 1: the throne as g as quickly as possible. Wait, for
Speaker 1: what purpose? So so that people don't get any ideas. Basically, oh,
Speaker 1: because in that vacuum like in between you and be
Speaker 1: like well, what if and they're like no, no, no, motherfucker,
Speaker 1: he's a king, he's a king. Yeah, Oh right, because
Speaker 1: I've seen the thing about like a few takes of
Speaker 1: like he should abdicate because this dude has wasted the
Speaker 1: prime years of his life waiting for his mom to die.
Speaker 1: And then where it's just like it's going to be
Speaker 1: a Gerontocracy, where it's just these older people are like
Speaker 1: in power, while they're people who have like ideas that
Speaker 1: are relevant to most of the people that are on
Speaker 1: earth that might be able to kind of have a
Speaker 1: different take. But like the low point of popularity of
Speaker 1: the monarchy was Diana's death. And so again, like they
Speaker 1: kind of skip over it in the review of this book,
Speaker 1: but like that was squarely because they had made the
Speaker 1: monarchy a Diana versus Charles thing and like people just
Speaker 1: don't like this guy. He is. So I just want
Speaker 1: to read some of these quotes from like a summary
Speaker 1: of a book that is supposedly Pro Charles and pro
Speaker 1: the monarchy. UH quote. He is a preening SNOB, keenly
Speaker 1: sensitive to violations of protocol, intolerant of opinions contrary to
Speaker 1: his own and horribly misled about the extent of his
Speaker 1: own talents. And then this is. This is uh, this
Speaker 1: is a parenthetical aside. An amateur water colorist, he once
Speaker 1: offered Lucian Freud known as one of the foremost twentieth
Speaker 1: century English portraits, one of his paintings, one of Charles's paintings,
Speaker 1: in exchange for one of Freud. Oh ship. He was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: what do you think? We're basically same level. Um for
Speaker 1: for that one, the one that they say is like
Speaker 1: your masterpiece, because this is like mine too. So, Oh,
Speaker 1: what is it? It's a sun in a cloud against
Speaker 1: a white sky. And those lines, yeah, those are some
Speaker 1: the sun, the sunbeams, and then those lines, yeah, those
Speaker 1: are stink lines coming off from that that Hobo on
Speaker 1: the ground. stinkers. No meaner phrase than an amateur water colorist.
Speaker 1: Like that's the meanest thing I've ever heard someone say
Speaker 1: about another person's terrible that's what you say. Like yeah,
Speaker 1: I've in preschool when you do watercolor for the first time,
Speaker 1: like in my amateur water water colorists. I said water color,
Speaker 1: like I'm from. You're hanging with two philly guys over colors.
Speaker 1: Thank you. Freeze it and it becomes water ice. Um.
Speaker 1: He reportedly travels with a white leather toilet seat and
Speaker 1: Um travel travels with I'm sure he doesn't have to
Speaker 1: touch that ship, but he has. He probably has somebody
Speaker 1: who is fully like employed just to be the keeper
Speaker 1: of the Royal White Leather Toilet seat so that he
Speaker 1: never has to touch a toilet seat touched by any
Speaker 1: other ass in the history of his life. This book, again,
Speaker 1: that is a royalist portrait of Prince Charles, details his
Speaker 1: outrage on the rare occasions when he has to fly
Speaker 1: first class rather than in a private jet, and she
Speaker 1: writes about it as like the prince's paradoxes. But it's
Speaker 1: part oh Mike Bending up able, meanwhile being like he's
Speaker 1: a preening snob with paper thin skin, this asshole, but
Speaker 1: he's an enmorous really, um. What is a white leather
Speaker 1: I'm okay, I remember back in the eighties there used
Speaker 1: to be those white cushiony plastic toilet seats. Remember those?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, they were like I feel like those were
Speaker 1: always at the homes of people who were in their
Speaker 1: seventies and yes, my grandparents had when I hated it,
Speaker 1: I was like this ship feels like a Shitty beach ball,
Speaker 1: like what the funk is this? And I'm just thinking
Speaker 1: of like how even then I was like I'd rather
Speaker 1: sit on a normal hard toilet seat. I'm good with that?
Speaker 1: We don't we. We did fine with I don't need
Speaker 1: cushions or leather bound ship. I can't imagine what the
Speaker 1: like really is that in his mind it's like it
Speaker 1: has to be this cushion and white leather. He takes
Speaker 1: himself so seriously, like that's what he he like deeply,
Speaker 1: fully thoroughly believes that he is like a misunderstood genius
Speaker 1: thought leader and like that's the least that he boo
Speaker 1: could do is allow him to always fly private and
Speaker 1: never have to have his ass touch where another as plastic.
Speaker 1: Do you think? Oh, what if he's just like, I
Speaker 1: can't interact with plastic? Right, then he does, because he's
Speaker 1: also like one of those Um he's always talking about yeah,
Speaker 1: stuff like he's like stuff that is true, like about
Speaker 1: integrative medicine and stuff like that. He refers to himself
Speaker 1: as a quote healer and would would probably operate on
Speaker 1: you if you let him, because like that's what the
Speaker 1: sort of ship that he believes. So this is again
Speaker 1: reading direct quotes from this review. Sent thousands of letters
Speaker 1: to government ministers, known as the black spider memos, for
Speaker 1: the urgent scroll of his handwriting on matters ranging from
Speaker 1: school meals an alternative medicine, to the brand of helicopters
Speaker 1: used by British soldiers in IRA and the plate of
Speaker 1: the Patagonian toothfish. He's giving countless speeches to British businessmen
Speaker 1: on their poor business practices, to educators on the folly
Speaker 1: of Omitting Shakespeare from the National Curriculum, to architects on
Speaker 1: the horrid nous of the tall modern building and so on.
Speaker 1: So he just gets in there and speaks to experts
Speaker 1: about like how what they do sucks. Please come on
Speaker 1: this podcast. I'm looking at a Patagonian toothpish right now
Speaker 1: and it's polite is that it is an ugly sucker.
Speaker 1: That's a plight. That thing is ugly as hell. By
Speaker 1: the way, I was looking up I was trying to
Speaker 1: try to like figure out where I had heard the
Speaker 1: phrase I can't bear this bloody thing, what they do
Speaker 1: every stinking time, and I think I've yelled that in
Speaker 1: my car while trying to park at a trader Joe's.
Speaker 1: I think every single time I go to a trader
Speaker 1: Joe's I've yelled that in my car, like why don't
Speaker 1: they have more parking? Yeah, this bloody thing. I can't
Speaker 1: bear this bloody thing they do. I have come to realize,
Speaker 1: he told an audience in two thou two, that my
Speaker 1: entire life has been so far motivated by a desire
Speaker 1: to heal, heal the dismembered landscape and the poisoned soul,
Speaker 1: the cruel ty shattered townscape, where harmony has been replaced
Speaker 1: by a cacophony, to heal the divisions between intuitive and
Speaker 1: rational thought, between mind and body and soul, so that
Speaker 1: the temple of our humanity can once again be lit
Speaker 1: by a sacred flame Um. And everyone's like boo, fuck you,
Speaker 1: like of people like so. We saw how people in
Speaker 1: England treated the throne when, you know, the Queen died.
Speaker 1: They all were out in the streets yesterday just watching
Speaker 1: a car drive by with her body and just overcome
Speaker 1: with grief, like don't even want this motherfucker to like
Speaker 1: be the king. They're like Nah, like we're we love
Speaker 1: the monarchy, but like not, not when it comes to you.
Speaker 1: They're they're like ready to anyone, literally, anyone but him,
Speaker 1: anyone else, like the British police have reacted to criticism
Speaker 1: by arresting people when someone said, like who elected him?
Speaker 1: So it might not all be like funny. It's probably
Speaker 1: going to be the society coming together to fend off
Speaker 1: any criticisms of this dipshit like as as much as possible. Yeah,
Speaker 1: when those people are getting arrested, I think a lot
Speaker 1: of those laws were born out of like hate speech.
Speaker 1: So what happened? It's like a lot of the like.
Speaker 1: We talked about this all the time in the US,
Speaker 1: like free speech and things like. What the slippery slope
Speaker 1: is when you begin to like actually say like, Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: you can get arrested for that, because on the other
Speaker 1: side of that coin you can be someone with a
Speaker 1: blank sign outside of Buckingham Palace and they'll arrest you because, like,
Speaker 1: they arrested a guy, they said, because he may have
Speaker 1: written something offensive on it. And Yeah, it's a man
Speaker 1: just seeing so many, so many things happen at once
Speaker 1: is uh, I don't know, I don't know. I'm just glad.
Speaker 1: I'm just glad we have our perfect system here. Yeah,
Speaker 1: thank God. Yeah, do you think it's also like do
Speaker 1: you think he's just so like monarch brained, like, because
Speaker 1: you hear about how, like, you know, like me growing up,
Speaker 1: it's like saying, like your grandpa used to have a
Speaker 1: barbecue restaurant and then his daddy also used to smoke
Speaker 1: meats in the south. And I'm like, okay, like I
Speaker 1: kind of an idea, like that's why I like to cook.
Speaker 1: I like barbecue ship like that. But like they're coming
Speaker 1: with like four centuries, boy, your blood has ruled the
Speaker 1: land and like you turn into this fucking guy who's
Speaker 1: like telling like, Hey, scientists, this is what you need
Speaker 1: to do about cold fusion. Hey, helicopter pilots, have you
Speaker 1: tried these micro machines? They look pretty cool in the commercials.
Speaker 1: What else? What other fucking ideas have I got? Because
Speaker 1: I'm a healer, because this is a divine right I have. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he truly probably thinks he like is half God, which
Speaker 1: is appropriate for for America. We got the same thing
Speaker 1: going on, I meaning, hell, you're fucking fingers first, Bro,
Speaker 1: and then we can talk. He also just like in
Speaker 1: the context of his critiques of modern an architecture, they
Speaker 1: gave him like a town. They were like, Hey, why
Speaker 1: don't you build a town that you can come on, hey,
Speaker 1: why don't you build it down Charles Street? Ark over
Speaker 1: there and build a town. Yeah, okay, it's basically it's
Speaker 1: called poundberry Um and it is basically a few feudal detailand.
Speaker 1: He was adamant that would not be another soulless housing estate.
Speaker 1: But everyone's like it's weird, like he has like these
Speaker 1: curvy streets, but the curves in the road like aren't
Speaker 1: for anything other than just him doodling. I guess like
Speaker 1: the way the roads are looked is because it's like
Speaker 1: having a big piece of blank papers in front of
Speaker 1: it in the road. Yeah, exactly like that. It's not.
Speaker 1: It's not on a grid system. It's just random roads,
Speaker 1: just vibes, just king vibes, King Major Poundbury vibes. But
Speaker 1: then you know, in addition to thinking that he like
Speaker 1: deserves this, his perspective so limited that like the grandest
Speaker 1: buildings in this town are not schools or libraries but
Speaker 1: luxury apartment complexes, because that's like that he has ever experienced.
Speaker 1: There are strict rules about altering homes, so much so
Speaker 1: that a few years ago, homes were being inspected with
Speaker 1: cameras to make sure no one was altering them without approval.
Speaker 1: Solar panels aren't allowed if they're visible, because the environment.
Speaker 1: He wants it to look like an old timey thing.
Speaker 1: One woman even claimed she was evicted because she had
Speaker 1: too many plants outside her house. Um, yeah, that's so scary.
Speaker 1: People lived there. Like in my mind it was just
Speaker 1: kind of an empty plot of land that nobody was using,
Speaker 1: but the fact that there were actual citizens, yeah, in
Speaker 1: his weird town and the people who lived there like yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean you'd think these would be good buildings because
Speaker 1: they have like do you do you know how much money?
Speaker 1: Like the Royal Family has four hundred sixty million dollars liquid,
Speaker 1: but I think they own, like when you look at
Speaker 1: all their holdings and all like the value of all
Speaker 1: the different things that they own, it's like seventy seven
Speaker 1: billion dollars that he just inherited. And these buildings that
Speaker 1: he built they leak, like they don't like they're just
Speaker 1: it's like if you gave a kid with no training
Speaker 1: like like not nothing works and the whole things. That's
Speaker 1: just complete disaster. There's a monument in the big central
Speaker 1: hub of the town, is called Queen Mother Square, which
Speaker 1: with the statue of his Grandmama, and it's just generally
Speaker 1: a tribute to British imperialism. Streets are named after battles
Speaker 1: fought in Iraq and India. Yeah, Whoa, yeah, yeah, Chuck Baby,
Speaker 1: Chucky Valley. MM. He was going to call it pound town.
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know why I'm still here. It
Speaker 1: is funny the towns that pound town Um. Pound town
Speaker 1: is the American equivalent. Should have gone there. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: I can only yeah, I'm sure for all the people who,
Speaker 1: I mean how many people live there? They're like, Oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: that battle in India. Yeah, Oh, I heard about that
Speaker 1: because I'm from there, very few miles. Because in two
Speaker 1: thousand four workers in the town couldn't recall a single
Speaker 1: black or Asian resident of poundary Um. So it's just
Speaker 1: a white supremacy. Yeah, this is all just I mean,
Speaker 1: the conservative values in the end all come down to
Speaker 1: white supremacy. It's just open white supremacist values in our
Speaker 1: mainstream media. And you know, you listen to like NPR
Speaker 1: this morning and all they're talking about is the fucking
Speaker 1: Queen's funeral and like closing things down and like being
Speaker 1: like and uh, was there any security? And they were
Speaker 1: like Hah yeah, I mean it's it's an absolute police
Speaker 1: state over here. It's like worse than the two thousand
Speaker 1: Twelve Olympics, ha, ha ha. But it's just open white supremacy, see,
Speaker 1: and everyone's just cool with it, I guess, and it's
Speaker 1: just like all right, moving on. Well, yeah, it's it's
Speaker 1: that weird thing where it's like people think. They're like no, what,
Speaker 1: it's his history. It's history. That's right. Oh, that's okay,
Speaker 1: that's Oh right, okay, I'm still getting used to it.
Speaker 1: I just thought it was like a thing from a
Speaker 1: book rather than something that meant untold amounts of suffering
Speaker 1: from people. And like he's almost definitely the one who
Speaker 1: was asking about the complexion of Harry and Megan's baby,
Speaker 1: like almost like there there's been a book that came
Speaker 1: out that was like yeah, it was definitely it was him.
Speaker 1: Like we have behind the scenes of reports. It's off
Speaker 1: the record, but Um, so he's, you know, probably openly
Speaker 1: racist behind closed doors and just all around right. I
Speaker 1: mean like fucking a quarter God. So I can't imagine
Speaker 1: you ever check yourself about what the ship that comes
Speaker 1: out of your mouth. Yeah, so I can't wait. Well, Blake,
