Live from my house. 4 00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:10,440 Live from my house. I'm going up to Connecticut 5 00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:14,520 tonight to do a show and I'll be taking the train. 6 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:19,560 I'll be taking the train to Stamford and I'm excited. 7 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:21,520 I forgot. I get to take the train tonight. 8 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,240 Forget to take. I get to take the old Metro 9 00:00:25,240 --> 00:00:29,480 North. You know the old Metro North. 10 00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:33,960 Grab a seat, take your book. Crack open a book. 11 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:36,880 I'm 30 pages done. I'm 30 pages from being finished 12 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:40,040 with the power broker. Never thought this day would 13 00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:40,920 happen. Oh my God. 14 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:43,000 You could see the ring light in these sunglasses. 15 00:00:43,160 --> 00:00:44,640 Oh my God. Humiliating. 16 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,560 I'm not going to move, though. I'm not going to move. 17 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:50,840 I'm going to be. I'm going to be a professional 18 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:56,000 about this. Do you think, see, this is the 19 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:58,760 problem when you start doing conspiracies, when you start 20 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:02,840 becoming a conspiracy guy, you start seeing conspiracies 21 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:06,720 everywhere and you go, Oh my God, Oh my God, they didn't 22 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:11,760 build enough trains in New York because they wanted to build 23 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:14,560 highways because you can't read when you're in a car. 24 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:16,520 They want to stop people from reading. 25 00:01:16,960 --> 00:01:22,800 Holy shit. Do you think, I don't know, it 26 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:27,040 could be. It could be, I guess my mind 27 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:28,880 will never be quiet at this point. 28 00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:33,480 I will never stop. I will always be looking for I 29 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,040 will always be looking for conspiracies. 30 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:36,320 But that's going to be fun. I'm going to sit. 31 00:01:36,320 --> 00:01:38,120 Maybe I'll maybe I'll finish the book tonight. 32 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,440 I don't know. The problem with this book is it 33 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:45,000 takes like, it takes like maybe I think 5 minutes to read like 2 34 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,200 pages. That's what it feels like. 35 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,960 So I'm just kind of trudging along. 36 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,000 I'm almost done. I want, I want this, I want this 37 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,000 to be over though. You know, to me it feels like a 38 00:01:55,080 --> 00:02:00,720 a high school, a high school relationship, the power brokers, 39 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:02,920 like my high school girlfriend, we were together through a 40 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:09,840 couple years and it's I feel it ending and I'm excited for it to 41 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:11,840 end that. I want to find some new books or 42 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:14,360 maybe some other forms of entertainment, you know, if you 43 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:21,760 catch my drift, maybe some other kinds of but so a couple things 44 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:23,360 I want to get into. So I don't know if you guys saw, 45 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,640 but Ben Sasse was interviewed this week about well, he's in, 46 00:02:26,640 --> 00:02:29,840 he's being interviewed, he's doing all the podcasts, the 47 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:33,720 podcast because he's dying. He's got pancreatic cancer. 48 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:41,240 And hey, I'm sure that sucks. I'm sure that's not fun. 49 00:02:41,920 --> 00:02:44,040 Sure it's not fun to have pancreatic cancer. 50 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,160 He's got a bunch of black shit on his face. 51 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,200 I don't know what that's about. That was, he was on the New York 52 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,200 Times podcast and they, I always, I only see, I only saw 53 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:54,920 some clips, you know, but he's got a bunch of black shit on his 54 00:02:54,920 --> 00:02:58,160 face. And they should explain what 55 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:03,360 that is in the clips. You know, they should tell you, 56 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:05,680 wow, somebody's making a lot of noise back there in the kitchen. 57 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:09,480 That's OK, though. It's OK that you're making 58 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:10,960 noise. But it does feel a little bit 59 00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:13,920 deliberate. It does feel like you're being 60 00:03:13,920 --> 00:03:16,760 loud on purpose, you know, but. I'm being loud on purpose. 61 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,760 You're being like a, you're being like a teenager. 62 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,720 You're being like a teenager on the train. 63 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:28,880 What are you doing? Don't come in here. 64 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:30,960 This is my show asked. Me to do your show. 65 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,800 Why did you keep the balloons? It's solo, Michelle said. 66 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,760 To keep it, she said it was interesting. 67 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,640 Look at this. Look at this folks. 68 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:44,160 It's a nice one, huh? Benjamin turned 5 on Saturday, 69 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:46,800 so we got a. Five year old at the House now 70 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:53,400 and, and yeah, OK, so Ben, Ben now Ben says he's doing this 71 00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:54,720 interview. He's got a bunch of black shit 72 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,840 on his face. And was he one of those senators 73 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,200 that like stood up to Trump that was he one of those people that 74 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:04,040 they profiled and said this guy is leading the fight for this 75 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:07,600 guy's leading the fight for courage in the White House. 76 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:15,600 I'm not sure, but he does strike me as a guy who he seems kind of 77 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:20,640 a little full of himself. You know, I got the sense that 78 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:26,400 have you ever like worked a job? Here's what I would compare his, 79 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:30,840 his sort of cadence to. You ever work a job? 80 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,040 Like it's like in New York's in New York, right? 81 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,640 You work with a lot when you have day jobs and stuff. 82 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:37,600 This is what I would compare it to. 83 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,920 I've never really had, like, a boss, you know, I've had 84 00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,040 managers. I've had, I've had restaurant 85 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,640 managers. Restaurant managers where you 86 00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,000 go. Oh, my God, what a this is sad. 87 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:49,960 This is what this guy's doing with his life, huh? 88 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,160 What a bummer. What a bummer This is. 89 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,400 There's something about, there's something about Ben Sasse. 90 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,560 He seems very full of himself, right? 91 00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:04,920 Very arrogant. Very. 92 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,920 Hey, let me tell you guys. Let me tell you guys something. 93 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,680 Let me tell you guys something. I feel like anybody with that 94 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:16,680 tone, you can just you cannot listen to right? 95 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,720 Anybody who've if you ever feel like somebody's talking down to 96 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,840 you here, here, here's here's what here's what it is in New 97 00:05:23,840 --> 00:05:25,920 York City. Sometimes you work a restaurant 98 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,480 job or for me, it's moving and you'll find yourself sometimes 99 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:33,120 stuck with these people. It's very like actor I, I think 100 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:38,640 it's very like actor brain seems very actor brain where you're 101 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,960 working the same job, right? We're on the same truck. 102 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,760 We're, we're, we're on a truck together or we're, we're, we're 103 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:50,120 waiting tables together. And they have this, this, this 104 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:54,960 arrogance to them. They carry themselves in a way 105 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,960 where, you know, or where, where the stuff that they say is 106 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:02,120 really, really the stuff they say is really, really 107 00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:04,560 intelligent. And you have to, you have to, 108 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:06,760 you know, you got to really listen. 109 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,600 You got to really, you got to really listen. 110 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,040 You got to really listen when they talk, man, I'll tell you 111 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:14,080 what. Yeah. 112 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,480 Yeah. Anyway, he, he starts talking 113 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:25,720 about how it's so sad, man, it's so sad that people are just 114 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:29,600 aren't making babies anymore. The birth rate, the birth rate 115 00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:34,280 is declining everywhere except maybe China, except maybe China 116 00:06:34,280 --> 00:06:36,120 and Gaza. So that's good. 117 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,680 China and Gaza. The birth rate is increasing in 118 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,680 Gaza. They're still having kids. 119 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:45,120 Sorry, sorry guys, sorry, Israel, fuck you. 120 00:06:45,840 --> 00:06:48,360 The population is growing. It's going to continue to grow. 121 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:53,440 They're going to the people of Gaza are going to the men of 122 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:58,120 Gaza are literally going to to dump their cum in everything 123 00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:04,480 that they can. Sorry, they are making babies 124 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,160 over there and that's resistance. 125 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:08,920 That's resistance. They're nutting in each other 126 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,760 and they will never, those people will never stop nutting 127 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:13,320 in each other. They will never stop making 128 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:15,400 kids. You can do whatever you want. 129 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,920 You can, you can. It's just, it's just how they 130 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:19,480 are. Yup. 131 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:21,680 They have a lot of kids. I remember getting into it with 132 00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:24,600 Ian Finance about that when the when the thing started. 133 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:27,160 He goes, he goes. He said, he said Gazans have too 134 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:31,720 many kids. I go, Yup, yes they do. 135 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,240 Yes they do. We're going to keep making them. 136 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:36,360 We're going to keep taking. They're going to keep taking 137 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:42,040 blue chew and they're going to keep reproducing. 138 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,120 Reproducing. Yes, they are. 139 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,520 They are reproducing. I don't like when people say, I 140 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,920 don't like when is when Zionists say that when they go, oh, the 141 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,240 population, blah, blah, blah, the population's gone up. 142 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:56,280 Yes, it has. And it will continue to because 143 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,360 that's resistance. Gaza and China, I guess the 144 00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:00,960 rates are the rates are going up. 145 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:04,480 But in the United States, birth rates are declining. 146 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,720 Nobody wants to have babies. And why would you? 147 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,160 You know, why would you? We live in, we live in hell. 148 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:13,840 We live in hell. I went to the grocery store last 149 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,400 night and it's it's like Deb, Deb sent me to the grocery store 150 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,920 for paper towels last night. And I'm looking around. 151 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,520 I go to the paper towel aisle and first of all, there's no 152 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:28,800 prices on anything. Nothing is labeled and you see 153 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,360 all kinds of numbers. You don't even know. 154 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:32,520 You don't, first of all, you got to buy paper towels these days. 155 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:36,039 You don't know what price is what like you don't know what 156 00:08:36,039 --> 00:08:38,760 number goes with what type of paper towels. 157 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,400 It's extremely confusing. I I'm pretty sure deliberate, 158 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,800 like I said, conspiracy brain. I'm doing it again, but I'm 159 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:46,960 pretty sure it's I'm pretty sure it's deliberate. 160 00:08:47,560 --> 00:08:51,560 And you go, You go. You walked. 161 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,800 This is my boomer comedian arc, by the way. 162 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:58,200 I'm doing boomer comedy. No, it's not really boomer 163 00:08:58,200 --> 00:08:59,280 comedy. Yeah, I guess it's kind of 164 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:03,880 boomer comedy, but go to the God damn what? 165 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,880 Go ahead. I honestly thought like, I just 166 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:11,360 didn't know how much paper goods cost at the grocery store. 167 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,120 I didn't know. We no, I have no idea how much 168 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,840 they I don't think, but I think buying paper towels is too much 169 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,440 of A luxury. I think that's going to be, I 170 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,760 think, reusable brags or resistance. 171 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:25,320 Now we got to start. We got to, we got to take all 172 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,800 the Out for Smokes T-shirts that I have and just cut them up and 173 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:32,360 make them into rags because fuck these paper towels. 174 00:09:34,560 --> 00:09:39,800 But God damn it. What? 175 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:46,640 Yeah, I guess maybe we can use to collect some Doo Doo for my 176 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:51,640 asshole. But you can you go to buy paper 177 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:58,000 towels and nothing, nothing makes sense that you go. 178 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,080 There you go. It says, it says Bounty double 179 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,880 double rolls too, because now they sell them in double rolls 180 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,000 too, so that there's single rolls and there's double. 181 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:07,880 So now all you're buying double rolls. 182 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,520 But the big roll of paper towels is double rolls. 183 00:10:10,680 --> 00:10:14,440 Anyway, the numbers that I'm seeing in the paper towel aisle 184 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:21,920 are crazy, $11.23 dollars. I don't know what the highest 185 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:23,840 I've seen. I mean I would I feel like up 6 186 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:25,720 pack of bounty paper towels is May. 187 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:31,280 It could be close to somewhere around $27.00 I think. 188 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:36,800 OK so nobody can afford to have children. 189 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,400 Nobody wants to have children unless you live in, unless you 190 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:46,240 live in Gaza. And, and now this guy's on TV 191 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,040 like lecturing people going. This guy's on TV lecturing 192 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:50,480 people going. And he didn't even say. 193 00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,400 He didn't even say no, We're oh, it's so sad. 194 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:57,360 No one's having babies anymore. He said no one's having sex. 195 00:10:57,680 --> 00:10:59,960 That's what he said. No one's having sex. 196 00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:02,640 No one's having sex. No one's making babies. 197 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:11,840 Buddy, buddy, you did this. You, you're a, you're a United 198 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:16,000 States Senator. You, I mean, I mean nobody. 199 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,840 I, I'm not, I'm not a guy who can articulate this. 200 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,280 I'm not a guy who can, who can go into statistics and 201 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:27,680 everything. But I can say this. 202 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,120 Nobody can afford housing, Nobody can afford groceries. 203 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,680 Nobody can afford paper towels. Paper towels are $11.00. 204 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,600 Paper towels are $18.00. I did see a pack of brawny paper 205 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:41,120 towels, $18.00 for a three pack. I'm not doing that. 206 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,640 I'm not doing that. I will cut my I will. 207 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:48,200 I will cut my son's favorite Sonic the Hedgehog T-shirt up 208 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:53,240 into pieces and make that into rags before I pay $18.00 for 209 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:57,480 paper towels. OK, I hope you hear me. 210 00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,320 But the, the way that we're beat, the way that you get 211 00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,760 lectured, the way you get lectured for that, it's like, 212 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,160 man, it's so it's really sad, man. 213 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:09,160 Everyone's pay. Everyone's playing Candy Crush. 214 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,440 Yeah. And then God gave you pancreatic 215 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:18,960 cancer. So because he doesn't say, he 216 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:20,440 didn't say we're not having babysit. 217 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:24,160 He said we're not having sex. We're not having sex. 218 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:29,840 Now imagine I'm, I'm an older person, OK, but imagine you're 219 00:12:29,840 --> 00:12:31,560 young. Imagine you're like 31. 220 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:35,400 I'm 31 years old. I work at Amazon. 221 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:45,360 I have 4:00 room mates and some senator is telling me to go out 222 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,760 and get pussy. Some dying senator, some dying 223 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:51,840 senator who has cancer is telling me to go out and get 224 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:55,200 pussy. I mean this country, you know, 225 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaking of cancer, though, I do want you guys to cut out your 226 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,560 your salami intake. It's actually very important. 227 00:13:01,560 --> 00:13:06,320 I was watching on Instagram looking at whoa, fuck this 228 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,760 fucking house. Keep the keyboard just fell over 229 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:14,920 split in half. I'm in a very small space. 230 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,160 If you guys saw the space I was in, you would say, but I'm not 231 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:18,280 complaining. I'm not. 232 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:23,160 Complaining about my life. But the cold cuts we got to, we 233 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:27,320 got to watch the cold cuts. Just a very bad position to be 234 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:31,800 in, to be like a young person. I'm a young person, I'm 31 years 235 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,040 old. I work for Amazon. 236 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,520 I drive a thing that's not quite a car, but not quite a bike. 237 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:39,880 It's like halfway between bike and car. 238 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,760 So I don't know. I get, I get moving violations 239 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:45,560 all the time where I don't know if I should, but I also get 240 00:13:45,560 --> 00:13:51,720 bike, I get bike tickets. I don't know what this is. 241 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:55,640 I don't know what my job is. I'm where I work. 242 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:59,000 All the time I I deliver packages at 4:00 in the morning. 243 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,680 I ring people's doorbells very, very loud because I have to get 244 00:14:02,680 --> 00:14:04,440 the pack. Because if, if, if the packages 245 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:09,280 don't get delivered, I get, I get written up or demerited or 246 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:11,720 whatever. And then some dying senator goes 247 00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:14,200 on TV and goes you're, you're, you're not getting pussy. 248 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:17,680 Why are you not getting pussy, son? 249 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,120 What's the matter? What are you doing playing Candy 250 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:23,200 Crush? Hey, what are you? 251 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,480 Doing fella playing Angry Birds on your phone? 252 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:28,640 That's really sad man. But I do want to talk about this 253 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:32,280 notion that you can't. There is a thing about, about I, 254 00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,120 I, I, I do want to talk about this thing of like having kids. 255 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:38,560 People, people say to me all the time, they go, they go, I, you 256 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:39,560 know, I want to have kids about them. 257 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:40,960 Like, I don't think I can afford them. 258 00:14:41,840 --> 00:14:45,760 And there is sort of this very neoliberal idea that if you 259 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:49,000 don't, if you can't afford kids, you should not afford them. 260 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,360 If you can't afford kids, you shouldn't. 261 00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:53,720 Have them I don't know if. Conservatives feel this way cuz 262 00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:57,040 I think conservatives are just like have the kids have the kids 263 00:14:57,040 --> 00:15:02,160 cuz abortion is wrong right? But I have seen, you know, every 264 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:03,760 once in a while you'll be on Twitter and it'll be like, 265 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:06,240 what's it, what's an unpopular opinion about parenting? 266 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,120 That's going to have you with a bunch of swords. 267 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:10,640 That's going to have you surrounded by swords and 268 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,520 somebody goes, don't have any kids if you can't afford them. 269 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:17,000 Listen, no one can afford to have kids. 270 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:21,920 And I don't think that's, I don't agree with that. 271 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,480 I don't agree with that. I think everybody who wants a 272 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:30,600 baby should have one. This notion that you have to be 273 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,960 ready to have a child, you have to be financially responsible 274 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,600 and ready to have a child. I don't like it. 275 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,320 I don't like. It, I mean, on its face, it 276 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,680 doesn't seem like there's anything wrong with it. 277 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,520 The beginning of the movie Idiocracy is about this, right? 278 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:47,440 There's that wealthy couple and they're like, oh, we're waiting 279 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,120 for the right time. And then and then what do you 280 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:52,640 know, the white trash guy, the white trash guy just getting 281 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:54,600 everybody pregnant and having lots of kids. 282 00:15:55,480 --> 00:16:00,880 But this idea that you shouldn't have kids if you're not ready. 283 00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:04,600 I don't, I don't agree with it. I think it's against, I think it 284 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:08,160 goes against biology. I think that I think that human 285 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:12,080 beings a long time ago, whenever it was when we lived in a well, 286 00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:17,040 when I don't know, tribes, Cavemen, Cavemen were never 287 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:18,680 like, oh, I don't have enough rocks. 288 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:21,720 I don't know, can I, can I, do I have enough rocks to have a 289 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:23,280 child right now? Do I have enough? 290 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,200 You know, I think you just, it's something that you do and you 291 00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:29,480 kind of figure it out. It's, it's not, it's not a 292 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:35,560 financial, it's not a financial thing. 293 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:39,320 The reason I feel that way is because nobody can afford to 294 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:43,040 have kids because kids take up all your, all your, they take up 295 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,360 all your money number. If you're, if you're sending 296 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:47,360 your kids to daycare, they take up all your money. 297 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:49,320 And if you're not sending your kids to daycare and you're 298 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,080 watching your kids yourself, you're they're taking up all 299 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,640 your time and they're taking away the ability for you to make 300 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:56,560 money, right. So the only choice that you 301 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:58,760 have, if you want to have children and start a family, 302 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:03,920 you, you have to either like live in an, in a village in 303 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:08,359 Africa somewhere, right? The only options that you have, 304 00:17:08,359 --> 00:17:12,720 it's like you have to, how does one even have a family these 305 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,440 days, right? Because these are your three 306 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,560 choices. These are your three choices. 307 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:23,839 Somebody stays home, that stuff, both of you. 308 00:17:23,839 --> 00:17:29,720 Work and pay for daycare? OK, that's expensive or? 309 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:36,040 Maybe you have family, maybe you have maybe the child has a 310 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,720 grandparent or something that can watch them during the day. 311 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,280 But I don't think we're all of our parents are boomers. 312 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,000 So that's not that's not going to work. 313 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:47,360 I mean, all of our parents are quite literally the most selfish 314 00:17:47,360 --> 00:17:52,840 people to ever live. So nobody can afford to have 315 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:54,600 children. Is the is was what I'm getting 316 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,280 at. It's and it's not, it's not a, 317 00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,560 it's not a personal responsibility thing. 318 00:17:59,880 --> 00:18:01,840 It's not a personal responsibility thing because you 319 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,160 do you. Humanity is always needed, has 320 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:08,360 always needed other people. People have always needed other 321 00:18:08,360 --> 00:18:14,360 people to take care of their kids or, or do you hear that? 322 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:22,360 Or we've always needed some type of community, right to take care 323 00:18:22,360 --> 00:18:29,600 of our kids. It's not a the we, we, we 324 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:33,240 should, we should reject this idea that it's a it's like I 325 00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:35,880 said, it's your, it's, it's like a personal thing. 326 00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:39,640 It's not a personal thing. It's your people who have 327 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:45,080 children are contributing to the continued existence of this 328 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,200 species, right? Anybody who doesn't have 329 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:51,920 children should be thanking me. And I know that a lot of this, 330 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,840 like I know a lot of this, you know, girl boss, liberal 331 00:18:54,840 --> 00:19:02,360 feminism is very much like, it's very much like, you know, these 332 00:19:02,360 --> 00:19:05,200 people don't have an ability to think beyond themselves, right? 333 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:07,560 So they'll go, oh, it's your choice to have children or 334 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:10,960 younger people will sometimes people who are kind of smart 335 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,920 will have this blind spot where they go, where they go, well, 336 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,280 you know, you shouldn't have kids if you don't, if you don't 337 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,240 want, it's your, you chose to have kids. 338 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:23,160 No, I, yes, I'm doing you a favor actually, because believe 339 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,040 it or not, you're not going to be 24 years old forever. 340 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:30,000 And at some point, you know, you're going to be in your 50s, 341 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:34,000 sixties, 70s, and you're going to need young people to fight 342 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:38,160 your wars, right? You're going to need young 343 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:41,000 people to fight your wars, to make your coffee, to work at 344 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:45,280 Taco Bell. So I want to push back on this 345 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,680 idea that having children is a is like a personal is like a 346 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:50,240 personal thing. It's not a personal thing. 347 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,800 It's like you're contributing to the betterment of society. 348 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:58,000 And yes, even the single mothers, even the single 349 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,840 mothers, even the white trash, even the can I use this word, 350 00:20:02,120 --> 00:20:03,520 ghetto? Can I say ghetto? 351 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:08,600 Listen, even irresponsible teenagers in the ghetto and in 352 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,720 the trailer parks are kind of doing the right thing for 353 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:14,240 humanity by choosing to have children. 354 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:18,080 Society fails those children by not taking. 355 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:22,520 Care of them. And they do it in other 356 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:25,080 countries. They do it in other countries. 357 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:29,600 Gaddafi, Look at Gaddafi, you know, perfect example, perfect 358 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:33,440 example, perfect leader comes into power, takes over Libya 359 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:37,040 when he's 27 years old, nationalizes the oil, eradicates 360 00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:40,280 homelessness, all kinds of programs for people having 361 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:44,160 children. Same thing with, I don't know 362 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:46,520 anywhere. Name a name a place. 363 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:50,280 Name a place that's not America. Name a place that's not America. 364 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:52,880 You, you're, you can have, you can have a family. 365 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:59,520 You get maternity leave. Nazi Germany, I'm pretty sure. 366 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:04,280 Listen, say what you want. Listen, say what you want about 367 00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:06,880 Hitler and the Nazis. I'm pretty sure that they did 368 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:11,120 give maternity leave. They had, I'm pretty sure Nazi, 369 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:14,800 I'm pretty sure there was better maternity leave in Nazi Germany. 370 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,800 I hate to say it, I hate to say it, but I'm pretty sure there 371 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:26,360 was better maternity leave in Nazi Germany then there was 372 00:21:26,360 --> 00:21:28,880 right now. And as we know, and I'm pretty 373 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,240 sure you can Google this, I'm pretty sure Nestle, it was 374 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,800 Nestle that lobbied the government. 375 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:40,640 The Nestle corporation lobbied the government so that mothers 376 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:44,280 would go back to work and buy formula. 377 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:49,240 They wanted mothers back to work buying formula so they would so 378 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,080 that when it would increase their profits. 379 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:56,560 So let's just remember that we are, at the end of the day, we 380 00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,720 are little corporate piggy slaves, OK? 381 00:21:59,880 --> 00:22:03,160 All of us, all Americans were corporate little piggy slaves. 382 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,120 We're always going to be a little piggy slaves. 383 00:22:05,120 --> 00:22:07,520 We probably always will be little corporate piggy slaves. 384 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,680 I think that millennials are not going to be the ones to do it. 385 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:13,560 We're not going to be the ones to break the chains. 386 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:16,080 Gen. Z, maybe, I don't know. 387 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,160 I don't know. I want to be optimistic about 388 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:20,360 that. I think millennials are too. 389 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:26,880 We grew up with too much 9. Like we like living through 911. 390 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,000 I think we're a little too attached. 391 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:32,480 We're a little too attached. To the old system, right, which 392 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:38,160 is like lunch meat and you know, lunch meat and being anti Islam, 393 00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,320 we're a little too. Worried we're too. 394 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:42,720 We're not going to. We're not going to make it. 395 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:43,920 Unfortunately, we're not going to. 396 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,120 We're kind of like, we're like the horse, the old. 397 00:22:46,120 --> 00:22:51,040 Horse in Animal Farm, right? What was his name? 398 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:54,440 Major. And he didn't want to He didn't 399 00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:57,000 want to work. No, he wanted to work, but he 400 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:58,960 didn't see the the fruits of his. 401 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:03,160 Labor millennials are going to turn communist and then, and 402 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:05,440 then, But then we're going to inherit our parents houses and 403 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:08,520 then we're all going to. Turn into Nazis. 404 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:12,200 We're all going to turn into Nazis once we all have a three 405 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:15,080 bedroom house in, in West Windsor, NJ. 406 00:23:17,120 --> 00:23:18,560 So we'll see. We'll see what happens. 407 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:20,880 I, I just, I don't think that we're going to be the ones to do 408 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:24,880 it, unfortunately. Maybe one of us will kill Donald 409 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:26,880 Trump successfully. I'm not sure. 410 00:23:27,360 --> 00:23:29,920 We'll see if that happens. Lots of people. 411 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:31,680 What weren't there? I think they were shots fired. 412 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:34,960 At the at the White House today, like this morning, somebody else 413 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,480 tried to kill Trump. That is pretty funny. 414 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:41,000 That is very funny that everyone's trying to kill Donald 415 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:43,480 Trump and no one like really gives a shit. 416 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:49,440 No one's, no one is competent #1 no one is do, no one is doing 417 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:52,200 it. No one is successful. 418 00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:55,760 But like, everybody, but like, everybody wants to kill this 419 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:59,440 guy. Like, like everyone wants to 420 00:23:59,440 --> 00:24:02,320 kill this guy. And no one is succeeding. 421 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:07,080 But also nobody really cares. It's just like, yeah, you know, 422 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:11,720 it's like when you're at work and there's a toilet that 423 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:14,080 doesn't work and nobody's going to, nobody's going to fix the 424 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:21,200 problem, right? This is very funny. 425 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:22,680 Like, he's good. They're going to try to kill 426 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:24,360 him. Like somebody is going to 427 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:29,000 somebody, somebody. Here's my prediction. 428 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:32,440 Actually, for the next, for the next year or so, someone is 429 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:37,680 going to try to kill Donald Trump once a week for the next 430 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:40,280 three years. And it's not going to happen. 431 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:42,040 No one is going to be successful. 432 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,720 Everybody's going to choke. Everybody's going to and I get 433 00:24:44,720 --> 00:24:46,520 it. You know, I almost confronted 434 00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:48,040 Chuck. I basically confronted Chuck 435 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,920 Schumer one time and I told him, hey, let's stop the baby 436 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:52,880 killing. And I that was scary. 437 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:56,120 You know, I couldn't imagine. I'm pretty sure, and like I 438 00:24:56,120 --> 00:24:57,240 said, I would never. I would. 439 00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:58,640 Let me. Let's get this out of the way. 440 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:00,760 For YouTube, I would never assassinate anybody. 441 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:03,680 I would never assassinate anybody. 442 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:07,680 I don't advocate for political violence in any way, shape or 443 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:16,000 form, but I feel like I would choke. 444 00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:17,160 I would choke. I don't think. 445 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:19,000 I don't think I'm one of the people who wouldn't choke. 446 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,800 If I tried to take out the president, you know. 447 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:28,560 I'm pretty sure I'd be one of the guys who chokes, but. 448 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:37,320 But yeah, so what's happening? I mean, the world is changing. 449 00:25:37,360 --> 00:25:40,280 Everybody hates capitalism. Everyone's sick of this system. 450 00:25:40,280 --> 00:25:42,040 Everyone wants to see something else. 451 00:25:43,120 --> 00:25:44,760 Everybody. Now, here's the thing. 452 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,040 Now here's where Here's. Where I'm in a I'm in a kind of 453 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:51,800 a strange position, right? Because I'm at this crossroads, 454 00:25:51,920 --> 00:25:55,800 not a crossroads really. I've kind of, I've already gone 455 00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:57,280 off the exit. I've already, I'm already 456 00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:01,080 committed to this, to this bit that I hear that I'm doing. 457 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:08,440 But for the past year or so, right now, maybe more than that 458 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,520 past past two years, past two years, I've been watching people 459 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:16,400 get very rich. Culture has shifted to the 460 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:21,960 right. We've defeated woke, but in the 461 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:26,200 in the, in the in the aftermath of woke being defeated, we have 462 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,480 culture has, has, has gone to the right way, pretty far to the 463 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,400 right. Not really though, because a lot 464 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,000 of those guys are kind of everyone's people are kind of 465 00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:39,760 getting sick of that shit too. But here's what I'm getting at. 466 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,480 I had AI had an Instagram reel. I don't really, I don't, I don't 467 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,720 do a lot of social media. I should be doing more social 468 00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:47,440 media, obviously. And so yesterday I was with the 469 00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:48,880 baby, right? That's the other thing I want to 470 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,920 say about being a parent is that the bait you know, you don't 471 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:53,920 have. You need the government to take 472 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:57,040 care of your baby. You need the government to take 473 00:26:57,040 --> 00:26:59,440 care of your baby because the baby always needs something 474 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:02,520 You're not. There is no, there's no, oh, let 475 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:04,920 me put the baby. Let me get some work done while 476 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,640 I watch the baby. The baby needs all of your 477 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:11,160 attention. OK, so there is so something. 478 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:14,600 Something's got to be done about that. 479 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:22,440 But what I'm getting at, what I was getting at is this. 480 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:28,080 I don't do a lot of social media, but yesterday I'm just I 481 00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,400 was just sitting on my couch. The baby was asleep. 482 00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:34,800 The baby fell asleep on my chest OK, and I was just kind of 483 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:37,240 sitting on the couch. And I didn't want to. 484 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:39,760 You know when the baby falls asleep on your chest, you don't 485 00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:41,880 want to get up because you don't want to wake up the baby. 486 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:43,800 You go, you go. What can I do? 487 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:49,000 God forbid the baby wakes up. So you go. 488 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:54,840 What can I do here that will? Be, you know, semi productive 489 00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:59,720 and won't wake up the baby and what can I do? 490 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:02,720 So I was just kind of thinking about communism. 491 00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:05,680 I was thinking about Stalin. I was thinking about Mao Zedong. 492 00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:11,880 You know, saw a very funny meme yesterday that said it was 493 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:16,600 heaven, it was heaven and said Mao Zedong be like, if I kill, 494 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,240 Are you sure? I killed 45 million people? 495 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:20,840 They sure ain't. They ain't up here. 496 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:29,600 So that was very funny. But I'm just thinking about 497 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:31,040 Stalin. I'm thinking about Mao. 498 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:38,200 And I'm like, well, look, Russia's Russia, you know, 499 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,640 Soviet Union collapsed. Unfortunately, lots of people 500 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,440 died. I don't know much about I, I, I 501 00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,040 know next to nothing about the Soviet Union, unfortunately. 502 00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:50,760 But I do know that a lot of people, a lot of people died 503 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:54,240 when they when the Soviet Union collapsed and they went into. 504 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:59,480 Like a capitalist system. I know a little bit about China. 505 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:01,120 I know a tiny, tiny bit about China. 506 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:04,400 I know there's a lot of people in China, a lot, a lot of people 507 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:10,400 in China. And, and I know that well, right 508 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,880 now they're doing pretty good. They're building stuff, they're 509 00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:15,680 building ships, they're building, they're building, 510 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:17,200 they're building. They've built their economy 511 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,360 around labor. They've eradicated homelessness. 512 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:21,240 None of them are homeless. None of them are overweight. 513 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:26,040 And it's a good place to be right now. 514 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:28,920 China, it's a great, it's a really good place to be. 515 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:32,960 Just for my just from my perspective as a as a, you know, 516 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:40,040 as an American, as a, as a broke American, not broke, I'm not 517 00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:45,160 broke, but as an American comedian who's having a tough 518 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:53,920 time under capitalism, right. So what do we really know about 519 00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:56,600 Russia and China? Well, they were you forget you 520 00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:01,760 forget how you forget what it was like before their respective 521 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:03,240 revolutions. OK. 522 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:07,320 But anyway, I'm sitting here now the little that I know about 523 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,880 Russia and Stalin, OK. And this, this is information 524 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,120 that I've kind of unlocked very gradually over the course of my 525 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:17,120 life of. Course I was told. 526 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:21,600 When I was a younger, when I was a younger man, that of course 527 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:24,320 you know. Stalin was such a brutal, such a 528 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:28,320 brutal dictator. He was so overtly oppressive. 529 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,560 He was kind of worse than Hitler actually, when you think about 530 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,200 it, cuz he killed a lot. He actually killed a lot more 531 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:34,040 people. Some people will. 532 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,400 We'll say that Stalin killed a lot more people than Hitler did, 533 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,360 killed millions of people, millions of people. 534 00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:46,760 And I, I, I, the more that you're around, the more that 535 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:52,680 you, the more that you learn about the world, you go. 536 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,040 These things can't really exist together. 537 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:58,480 You know, I'm not a baby or anything. 538 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:04,280 I'm not trying to be a baby, but it seems like it's very accept, 539 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:08,000 it's very much accepted fact that. 540 00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:12,640 It was the Soviet. Union that defeated the Nazis 541 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:16,240 and that gets drilled into your head from the time you're a kid 542 00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:19,360 that the Nazis were the the worst evil that there ever was. 543 00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:21,240 So then you go like, well then what? 544 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:26,200 Then you start reading about the US and the US post World War 2 545 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,760 and the, you know, the operation paper clip where they were. 546 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:35,960 They got a bunch of Nazis out of America, I'm sorry, out of 547 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:38,600 Germany and brought them to America and had them work on 548 00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:40,120 their rockets. And then all the. 549 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:45,960 All of the all of the foreign policy stuff after World War 2 550 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,200 with the after the CIA was. Formed and you go. 551 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,240 I wonder if and I. I don't want to be reductive 552 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:57,760 here, but I wonder if the United States actually is the Great 553 00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:00,120 Satan. And then and then Russia and the 554 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:04,120 Soviet Union were the good guys. Maybe not the good guys, maybe 555 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:07,680 not perfect, but they did defeat Hitler, right? 556 00:32:07,840 --> 00:32:11,920 So then you start thinking, but look at China right now. 557 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:14,840 I mean, look at China is basically, if what they say 558 00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:18,440 about China is true, that it's a superpower that's built their 559 00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:22,320 economy around labor, then they had to get there somehow, right? 560 00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:26,880 And I think I think what gets left out a lot is life the way 561 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:30,880 life was before these the respective revolutions of these 562 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:35,480 countries, right? So I just kind of made this 563 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:40,680 video where I said I said, you know, but seeing a lot. 564 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:44,720 But now my whole Instagram algorithm is Stalin, Mao, 565 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:46,600 Stalin. Well, mostly Stalin, Stalin, 566 00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:50,000 Stalin, Stalin. You know, Trotsky's bad. 567 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:56,680 Trotsky was a, you know, basically a well, a lot of the 568 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,640 neocons were Trotskyites, which I didn't, which I learned that 569 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:07,480 recently. OK, but I saw a friend of mine 570 00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:10,200 say that Stalin was one of the heroes of the 20th century. 571 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:12,440 So you just you kind of you start, you start asking 572 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:16,800 questions, you know, much like Charlie Kirk, I'm just asking 573 00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:18,520 questions here. I want to, I just want to have 574 00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:21,520 the questions answered. And I'm willing to, I'm willing 575 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:24,280 to be wrong. I'm willing to go down these I, 576 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,160 I want to go down these these little rabbit holes and I want 577 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:28,720 to just I want the I want the truth. 578 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,120 I want to figure out what the truth is. 579 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:35,800 You know, listen, if Stalin, if Stalin ate a baby, I would like 580 00:33:35,800 --> 00:33:39,160 to know, but if he didn't eat a baby, then you just lied to me 581 00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:43,120 about the guy eating a baby. So now you're the you're now. 582 00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:47,040 I don't like you, you know, and what I said in this video was it 583 00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:50,000 like, yes, Stalin. And I've been seeing a bunch of 584 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:55,120 stuff about Mao and Stalin and, and look, it's kind of like when 585 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,240 your parents get divorced and you live with your mom and your 586 00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:00,120 mom trashes your dad and your mom says all kinds of horrible 587 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:01,720 stuff about your dad. Then you get older and you're 588 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:06,240 like, oh, I wonder, I wonder if mom was lying to me about dad. 589 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,080 Wonder if mom was lying to me about dad. 590 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:13,560 And I wonder if Stalin is my dad. 591 00:34:13,679 --> 00:34:15,639 And the video has been doing pretty well. 592 00:34:16,239 --> 00:34:20,159 But then I go, well, now what's happening, right? 593 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:25,480 All I ever wanted to be in life, I only the only thing I ever 594 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:28,679 wanted to be in life since I was a young boy was to be a 595 00:34:28,679 --> 00:34:31,679 comedian.

Them and now I'm going like. 620 00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:57,800 Oh, OK, so do now do I have to be like a communist thought 621 00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:01,720 leader, You know, now do I have to do communist history? 622 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:04,240 Now? Do I have to uncover the truth 623 00:36:04,240 --> 00:36:07,320 about the Soviet Union? And actually now is my mission, 624 00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:11,360 Like, did God put me on this earth to say that Stalin was 625 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:15,360 good?

So, yeah. 628 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:23,680 So I don't know. So I don't know. 629 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:24,840 We've talked about this stuff before. 630 00:36:24,840 --> 00:36:29,200 We've talked. About the talking about the 631 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:33,560 hello to more Listen, you hear a lot of stuff about from what 632 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:37,280 I've read about Stalin. Lots of purges. 633 00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:41,240 OK, lots of purges in this party. 634 00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:46,520 But they got invaded by Hitler. Right. 635 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:49,640 Nobody thought Hitler was going to invade Russia and then he 636 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:53,720 invaded Russia in what? I don't know what, what year was 637 00:36:53,720 --> 00:36:54,800 it? Was it 42? 638 00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:58,680 I think it was 41 or 42 that he invaded to Russia. 639 00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:01,120 Alexa, what year did Hitler invade Russia? 640 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:04,000 I'm. Not quite sure how. 641 00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,160 You're not sure? Great. 642 00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:12,680 But yeah, there were. There were purges, and there 643 00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:16,800 were. They were purged because they 644 00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:18,320 were collaborate. There were people who are 645 00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:25,560 collaborating with Nazi Germany. You know, Mao, he did kill 646 00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:31,040 people by accident. Here's what you got to remember 647 00:37:31,040 --> 00:37:36,200 about about Mao Zedong is that he probably killed people. 648 00:37:36,720 --> 00:37:41,160 He probably killed people, but he also saved a lot of people. 649 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:46,320 China before Mao Zedong was a was an agrarian. 650 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:49,400 And just like Russia, they were both agrarian societies, right? 651 00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:53,120 They were full of peasants. They were run by a Russia was a 652 00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:55,200 monarchy and China was something else. 653 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,160 I'm not sure exactly what it was Nationalist government or 654 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:01,000 something. Chiang Kai Shek was, was he was 655 00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:03,760 in charge of China. And the thing with, with China 656 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:07,080 is that lots of people die in China, right? 657 00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:09,360 There were lots of they're always famines. 658 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:13,320 I saw a video actually where this guy was saying. 659 00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:15,760 And and, and, and, and by the way, if you're listening, if 660 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:19,360 you're listening to the show and there's anything that I'm not 661 00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:22,240 getting right or you want to, you know, please, please let me 662 00:38:22,240 --> 00:38:24,360 know in the comments. Please let me know in the 663 00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:25,440 comments. I'm very, I'm very. 664 00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:27,360 I'm more or less, you know, new to all this, right? 665 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:36,280 But from what, from my perspective right now, communism 666 00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,240 is is in. It's in. 667 00:38:38,240 --> 00:38:41,480 It's it's in, it's chic, it's in, it's in vogue. 668 00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:44,440 So let's ride this wave, comrades. 669 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:46,720 Let's ride this wave and ride this wave folks. 670 00:38:51,040 --> 00:38:56,640 OK, so China was they were peasants. 671 00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:59,560 It was full of peasants. They lived on like 1 bowl of 672 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:02,800 rice every day. Same with Russia, brutal 673 00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:06,480 conditions after the revolution, life expectancy went up, 674 00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:08,760 literacy literacy rate went up in the country. 675 00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:12,440 So you can't what you have to do is you have if you're going to 676 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:14,680 do, if you're going to do and we should do an episode about this, 677 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:19,760 the the communist and communist versus capitalism, the body 678 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:21,280 count. We should find the body count. 679 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:31,120 But if you are. Going to have make this, if you 680 00:39:31,120 --> 00:39:33,840 are going to make this case, you got to think about how many 681 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:35,960 people they've saved, how many people they lifted out of 682 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:39,480 poverty, right? So just something to think 683 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:43,800 about. Did America lift? 684 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,640 People out of poverty, America made people too wealthy. 685 00:39:46,720 --> 00:39:50,200 I think America, my grandparents had an in ground pool and 686 00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:55,760 they're not very smart people. So America had a lot America, 687 00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:03,360 you know, You know, I understand being a patriot if it's this 688 00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:07,240 country's done, this country's if you've done well here, but. 689 00:40:08,720 --> 00:40:12,520 It's not for everybody. Anyway. 690 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:15,760 I'm wondering if that's I'd now I'm going, is that the path now? 691 00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:19,160 Do I have to be Mr. Comp? Do I have to be Mr. Communism? 692 00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:22,440 Because it does feel a little cringe, I'll be honest, right? 693 00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:24,440 It does feel a little bit like. What am I? 694 00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:29,400 Am I LARP in here? Is this LARP? 695 00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:31,000 Is this? Is this cap? 696 00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:32,800 Is this cap? Am I capping? 697 00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:37,160 But I don't know. I just want to get, I just want 698 00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:39,480 to get to the truth, man. I remember I read this, I, I 699 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:41,960 checked this book out of the library was called Ivan's War 700 00:40:42,120 --> 00:40:44,720 and Ivan is what they called the soldiers in the Red Army, like 701 00:40:44,720 --> 00:40:49,160 the average soldier, you know, And it was very, it was very 702 00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:55,000 like not favorable to the Red Army. 703 00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:58,200 It was a book called Ivan's War by. 704 00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:01,360 Catherine Marydale And it was very like. 705 00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:06,280 They were like, well. The Red Army had some problems. 706 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:10,120 Just so you know, the Red Army did some bad stuff. 707 00:41:11,600 --> 00:41:14,760 But I think everybody in the army does some bad stuff. 708 00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:16,720 But I do want to say this because I know Mao. 709 00:41:16,720 --> 00:41:20,560 So I saw this video, this guy said that Mao had some policy 710 00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:23,560 where like they were trying to fix, they were trying to like 711 00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:26,560 not have a famine and they like did some mistake. 712 00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:34,440 They made a mistake and like. And like 10,000 people died. 713 00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:40,280 No, I'm sorry, not. 1000, holy shit, not 10,000 people, 10 714 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:52,720 million people died. OK, 10 million people died, but 715 00:41:52,720 --> 00:41:55,920 they were trying to fix the they were trying to stop having 716 00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:58,200 famines. They're trying to not do not 717 00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:04,520 have any more famines. And then 10 million people died. 718 00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:11,320 Could you imagine, though, like you're OK? 719 00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:14,000 So imagine like your Mao Zedong, you go to heaven, right? 720 00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:18,000 You go to heaven. There's heaven, Christian heaven 721 00:42:18,000 --> 00:42:19,640 exist. Saint Peter. 722 00:42:19,640 --> 00:42:21,440 I know it is Saint Peter and he's white. 723 00:42:21,560 --> 00:42:25,160 Sorry, but that's just the way. And he's looking over your life. 724 00:42:25,160 --> 00:42:26,960 He's like. OK, Mao Zedong, pretty good. 725 00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:29,120 You were the leader of China and. 726 00:42:30,080 --> 00:42:34,720 Looks like you lifted a lot of people out of poverty and you 727 00:42:34,720 --> 00:42:36,760 killed a couple. Landlords, but you know, that's 728 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:38,280 whatever that is what it is and then. 729 00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:43,160 What's this 10 million people died because you had a? 730 00:42:43,160 --> 00:42:46,120 Famine. You did a famine somewhere. 731 00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:50,680 What's that about? You want to explain yourself? 732 00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:55,680 He's like, yes, yes, I'm sorry I fucked up. 733 00:42:57,600 --> 00:42:59,680 Listen, I was trying to not listen. 734 00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:02,800 Listen, Hitler over there, he did it on purpose. 735 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:05,360 He he killed Hitler, killed people on purpose. 736 00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:09,120 Hey, you know, you know, OK? Just remember King Leopold, 737 00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:10,680 right? From Belgium. 738 00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:14,080 Those people were killed on purpose. 739 00:43:15,560 --> 00:43:18,280 That was different. He liked killing people. 740 00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:22,000 Me. I was it's like I, you know, you 741 00:43:22,000 --> 00:43:23,920 know, I think, I think that when you if you're in charge of 742 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:26,880 China, like. Like 10 million people dying is 743 00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:28,840 like he dropped an egg on the ground or something. 744 00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:34,320 But that is funny. Like, imagine if so if now if, 745 00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:40,320 if Chairman Mao is responsible for 10 million deaths, imagine 746 00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:42,800 he's responsible for like 10 million deaths and he still went 747 00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:44,520 to heaven. That's pretty cool. 748 00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:46,840 That's impressive. That's impressive. 749 00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:52,480 If I was Hitler and Christopher Columbus in hell, I would be 750 00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:54,880 really, I would be really pissed about that. 751 00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:58,280 I would be really pissed. I would go, what the fuck he 752 00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:02,320 went to, how did he get? And God's like, that was an 753 00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:06,840 accident. That was an accident. 754 00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:12,400 And he said he was sorry. Listen, no, no form of 755 00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:14,600 government is perfect. I think everybody makes 756 00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:16,840 mistakes. I think Fidel Castro made some 757 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:18,800 mistakes. I think what I heard is that 758 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:22,200 allegedly he sent some some homosexuals to labor camps. 759 00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:24,480 He signed off on it and he apologized for that. 760 00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:28,600 His daughter was a lesbian and he apologized for and he said, 761 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:30,960 I'm sorry, I was, I was really busy. 762 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:34,440 That's kind of that's funny. I mean, that's a big mistake. 763 00:44:34,440 --> 00:44:37,600 That's obviously a big mistake. We don't want to send anybody to 764 00:44:37,600 --> 00:44:40,640 camps. We don't want to send, you know, 765 00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:42,880 we got some trans women who listen to the show. 766 00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:45,040 We want to keep, we want to keep you ladies happy. 767 00:44:46,200 --> 00:44:48,600 We don't want you in a camp. I would stop you from being at a 768 00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:49,880 camp. Hey, here's another thing I was 769 00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:55,720 thinking about because Barney Frank is dying too, right? 770 00:44:55,720 --> 00:44:58,160 Another, another Senate. No, he was not a senator. 771 00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:01,000 He was a congressperson. He's dying, right? 772 00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:04,120 So Barney Frank is dying. But he gave an interview 773 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:08,680 recently with Jake Tapper where he said like the Democrats are, 774 00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:09,880 too. Far to the left. 775 00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:12,560 Because they care too much about women's sports. 776 00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:17,400 They care too much about about trans women and women's sports. 777 00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:18,760 And that's why. They're going to lose. 778 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:28,120 And I am very bothered by this kind of rhetoric because I, I 779 00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:30,440 keep think this is a, this is going to be, this is going to be 780 00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:34,120 a, a theme for me for a while. I think I need to really I got 781 00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:36,000 to work this out. I got to work this whole thing 782 00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:42,440 out, but as a kid, I was very, I was very intellectually curious. 783 00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:46,080 I really enjoyed, I enjoyed history and I liked learning and 784 00:45:46,080 --> 00:45:49,440 I had a lot of curiosity right about the world and the stuff 785 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:53,280 that was going on. And they tell you in school or 786 00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:58,640 this at least this is what my, my, I don't know a better word 787 00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:02,000 for this, but I'm, I am going to use the term goy brained here, 788 00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:04,320 OK, I'm going to say goy brained. 789 00:46:04,320 --> 00:46:10,920 I, my goy brained family would say, and your teachers, your 790 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:13,520 teachers would say this too. They would go, well, politics is 791 00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:16,600 about compromise, right? So you have to compromise stuff. 792 00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:23,080 And I. Don't understand? 793 00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:29,440 Now there's this idea right among Democrats that. 794 00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:32,400 We care too much about trans people. 795 00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:34,360 We care too much about trans rights. 796 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:37,440 And that's going to cost us elections because we were. 797 00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:41,360 It's too much of it's just too much of A fringe Barney Frank's 798 00:46:41,360 --> 00:46:43,760 a gay guy, by the way. OK, so you're a. 799 00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:46,640 Gay man, and you're saying stuff about trans people that people 800 00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:51,000 probably said about gay people in the 70s and the 80s, but. 801 00:46:57,320 --> 00:47:00,920 But but, but that's, that's where we mess up. 802 00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:04,400 That's where we mess up because this, this group of people, 803 00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:10,600 that's a very. Small minority, right is they're 804 00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:11,920 demanding too many. We're do. 805 00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:14,120 We're making too many concessions for them. 806 00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:17,680 And if we would only, if we would only throw these people 807 00:47:17,680 --> 00:47:19,920 under the bus, we could actually, we could actually win 808 00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:25,320 elections. And I I don't even understand 809 00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:29,600 how that I don't even understand what the what the lodge, what 810 00:47:29,600 --> 00:47:31,360 the argument is there. Right. 811 00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:40,800 Like there's this argument that goes, hey, if you just, if you 812 00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:45,920 for, if you sacrifice, listen, if you sacrifice these people, 813 00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:48,160 if you make some concessions, if you. 814 00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:50,600 Compromise, right? Because politics, that's what 815 00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:52,480 politics is about, right? It's about, it's about 816 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:55,200 compromise. We have to compromise. 817 00:47:56,000 --> 00:48:00,120 So, so OK, so if if we do what you say we should do? 818 00:48:00,960 --> 00:48:05,480 And fuck and and all the trans. People can fuck off and they can 819 00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:08,160 get and you know what? We will, we will put them in 820 00:48:08,160 --> 00:48:09,560 camps. Actually, we'll do that. 821 00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:12,120 We'll do that for you. What do we? 822 00:48:12,240 --> 00:48:15,320 What do we? Get out of that agreement. 823 00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:16,800 What do we get out of that arrangement? 824 00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:22,120 I I think it's, it just sounds like something that people tell 825 00:48:22,120 --> 00:48:25,560 themselves. And it's a it just, it gets 826 00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:31,720 repeated and they think it's but I what, what do we they did it 827 00:48:31,720 --> 00:48:34,440 with Gaza too. All these, all these groups that 828 00:48:34,440 --> 00:48:41,120 are that are vulnerable and that that should be protected, right, 829 00:48:41,120 --> 00:48:44,920 that you have kids in. Gaza and you have you have trans 830 00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:49,720 people and. We're told that if we just, 831 00:48:52,120 --> 00:48:56,200 we're told that if we sacrifice them, then we can get some stuff 832 00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:57,720 done. But what are we? 833 00:48:57,720 --> 00:48:59,520 Being offered in return, it's nothing. 834 00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:01,200 We're not even being offered anything. 835 00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:04,120 We're not even. We're not even there. 836 00:49:04,120 --> 00:49:06,120 There's. If you ask these people, they'll 837 00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:08,680 they'll say, they won't even say, they won't even say what 838 00:49:08,680 --> 00:49:11,920 you're getting in exchange for throwing these people under the 839 00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:15,560 bus. So I think it's a lie. 840 00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:19,360 I think it's a lie. And don't fall. 841 00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:24,560 For it, don't fall for it. It's just it's crap, OK, it's 842 00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:29,200 total crap. I was just before you wrap up, I 843 00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:30,840 want to talk about surveillance a little bit. 844 00:49:30,840 --> 00:49:32,920 Friend of the show. Is she a friend of the show? 845 00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:34,200 I don't know. I don't want to rush it. 846 00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:38,280 I want to force it, but Jessica Burbank wrote an article it's in 847 00:49:38,280 --> 00:49:41,280 the it's in drop site news about there's a surveillance company. 848 00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:44,600 There's a surveillance company called Flock, right? 849 00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:50,000 And I think they would happen was they were like surveillance 850 00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:54,520 is funny because it does seem like every week there's a story 851 00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:58,760 where they go, Hey, we're going to put a camera in your toilet, 852 00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:00,560 by the way.

Had there was a company that was 881 00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:29,640 doing a sales demo and they accessed like a children's 882 00:51:29,640 --> 00:51:37,000 gymnastics studio in this in the sales demo, some some 883 00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:40,400 overzealous, some salesman who who had who needed to hit his 884 00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:44,080 quota was just like, was just like a check this out by the 885 00:51:44,080 --> 00:51:46,120 way, boop. And he's like that's a that's a 886 00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:49,520 children's gymnastics studio in a sales demo. 887 00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:53,200 If you know about guys from sales, I mean that is very 888 00:51:53,200 --> 00:52:03,320 funny, but. But yeah, yeah, that's 889 00:52:03,320 --> 00:52:04,520 happening. Cameras. 890 00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:06,880 Everywhere. And we just, we're just kind of, 891 00:52:06,880 --> 00:52:14,800 we're just kind of powerless. We're just kind of powerless to 892 00:52:14,800 --> 00:52:19,600 do anything about it. We know there's cameras 893 00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:20,600 everywhere. We know there's a. 894 00:52:20,600 --> 00:52:23,360 Camera in our toilet we know that our wife has a camera in 895 00:52:23,360 --> 00:52:27,640 her underwear drawer we know that everything we bought we 896 00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:30,840 know that our children's Sonic the Hedgehog hats have cameras 897 00:52:30,840 --> 00:52:37,640 in them and we just keep consuming keep consuming we know 898 00:52:37,640 --> 00:52:39,600 that the stuff we're eating is slop that's. 899 00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:43,080 Going to poison us. We we keep eating lunch meat. 900 00:52:43,080 --> 00:52:49,280 We can't stop eating lunch meat. Millennials, Millennials love 901 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:52,040 our lunch meat. I was, but you got it. 902 00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:53,440 You guys got to stop at the lunch meat. 903 00:52:53,560 --> 00:52:58,560 That's my one piece of advice for everybody this episode. 904 00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:00,600 Stop at the lunch meat. Don't eat any lunch meat. 905 00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:04,560 I was telling my wife that I was kind of concerned about how much 906 00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:06,120 lunch meat our our kid is eating. 907 00:53:06,240 --> 00:53:07,920 I go, I go. Man, this kids eating a lot of 908 00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:10,760 salami. She goes, yeah, well, nobody ate 909 00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:16,040 more salami than me. I said OK, but that's not really 910 00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:20,000 an argument, you know? Just because you ate a lot of 911 00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:23,720 salami doesn't really mean that that's dude, that that doesn't 912 00:53:23,720 --> 00:53:27,120 mean that our kid should eat a lot of salami, right? 913 00:53:30,320 --> 00:53:32,800 Just because you ate a lot of salami like that doesn't mean 914 00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:34,880 anything. So how about you? 915 00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:39,920 How about you chill out a little bit? 916 00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:45,880 Yeah, I guess that's it. What? 917 00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:47,440 Also I. Have on my list here. 918 00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:53,640 I mean, not not a not a ton. Well, I guess the power broker, 919 00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:54,720 you know, I want to talk about that. 920 00:53:54,720 --> 00:53:56,120 I'm at. The I'm at the part of the book. 921 00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:59,560 Right now, where Robert Moses is is losing his power. 922 00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:03,240 His power is his power is starting to wane and I'm seeing. 923 00:54:03,240 --> 00:54:06,360 That with a lot of other people, I'm seeing a lot of a lot of 924 00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:12,000 people that I thought once were very powerful starting to see 925 00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:14,840 people fall off as they say. Ben Shapiro I feel like has 926 00:54:14,840 --> 00:54:16,720 fallen off. A lot. 927 00:54:18,960 --> 00:54:23,040 You just can't. It's crazy to watch. 928 00:54:23,040 --> 00:54:26,080 It's been crazy to watch. It's been, it's been, it's take, 929 00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:28,160 it takes. It's taking way too long. 930 00:54:28,960 --> 00:54:32,120 But just guys like Ben Shapiro and Mark Levin, they're on this 931 00:54:32,120 --> 00:54:36,080 ship, they're on the sinking ship, the s s Zionism. 932 00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:41,160 And nobody's nobody's on board with their nobody is into it. 933 00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:44,560 Nobody likes this. Aside from maybe a handful of 934 00:54:44,560 --> 00:54:48,320 boomers. Everybody is kind of like done 935 00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:52,760 with this. This genocidal, this shitty, 936 00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:56,280 this genocidal state, this genocidal child killing state. 937 00:54:56,280 --> 00:54:57,960 We're all done with it. But these guys are not. 938 00:54:57,960 --> 00:55:01,720 These guys are still going down with the ship, I guess. 939 00:55:01,720 --> 00:55:06,200 But but to see to see somebody like Ben Shapiro, Ben Shapiro 940 00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:10,200 and and Bill Burr is another one that's, you know, Bill did that 941 00:55:11,440 --> 00:55:14,920 Comedy Festival in Riyadh, the Saudi Arabia festival. 942 00:55:15,720 --> 00:55:18,320 And before that, everybody had a people. 943 00:55:18,320 --> 00:55:21,080 I think people had very high regard for, for Bill Burr. 944 00:55:22,880 --> 00:55:26,800 Bill Burr was the guy who was like, you know, yeah, fuck the, 945 00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:30,560 the corporations. These cunts. 946 00:55:30,560 --> 00:55:33,800 He would call, he would say that he would call CE OS cunts. 947 00:55:34,640 --> 00:55:37,800 You know, he would say that these, all these guy, all these 948 00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:41,400 rich guys are rich cunts and they steal all the money. 949 00:55:41,400 --> 00:55:45,520 They're greedy. You're greedy, you're a greedy 950 00:55:45,520 --> 00:55:46,480 CEO. And that, that is true. 951 00:55:46,480 --> 00:55:49,080 There's a lot of greedy CE OS out there. 952 00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:54,360 But then it's like you went to a, you went to a country where 953 00:55:54,360 --> 00:56:01,280 they cut people's heads off and for money, for money, you know, 954 00:56:01,440 --> 00:56:05,360 like, like I, it's odd. Like you would think, one would 955 00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:10,680 think, one would really think that you could bounce back from 956 00:56:10,680 --> 00:56:15,600 something like that, right? The I think the average person, 957 00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:24,560 myself included, would think that that you could do what you 958 00:56:24,560 --> 00:56:27,360 could do that and people would forget, right? 959 00:56:27,360 --> 00:56:31,000 The people would freak. People would people would that's 960 00:56:31,160 --> 00:56:37,080 but it's not it's a the the stain this, this, the stains not 961 00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:44,440 really coming off there. You know, people go wait a 962 00:56:44,440 --> 00:56:47,200 minute. You know, it's different when 963 00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:52,840 it's like it's different when it's, you know, Andrew Santino 964 00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:56,240 and even even Tim Dylan ended up not going. 965 00:56:56,800 --> 00:57:05,080 But you know, nobody, nobody, nobody consumed Andrew Santino's 966 00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:11,440 comedy because he was a he was any kind of moral moral arbiter 967 00:57:11,440 --> 00:57:16,360 more, you know, like it like nobody thought he had any kind 968 00:57:16,360 --> 00:57:21,480 of integrity. But I think with Burt really 969 00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:23,880 felt it really feels like a betrayal for people. 970 00:57:23,880 --> 00:57:28,920 You know, it's like you look at the comments and it's all Billy 971 00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:31,720 blood money. It's easy that it's really it's 972 00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:37,000 it's unfortunate. It's easy to 'cause he still 973 00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:38,520 went to the festival and he kind of doubled. 974 00:57:38,520 --> 00:57:41,560 He never like apologize or gave the money back or anything. 975 00:57:41,560 --> 00:57:46,560 He just kind of like he went to the I don't know, I might. 976 00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:49,320 I'm not wrong. I'm not he still got this like. 977 00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:56,360 Stink on them. Where where people go, I don't 978 00:57:56,360 --> 00:57:58,640 want anything to do with that.
