And. Today we're talking about
someone related to American politics who's been in the.
Headlines a bit. His father, the current
president of the United States of America, Joe Biden.
And who are we talking about today?
No. We are talking about Hunter
Biden. He is a controversial character
in modern day American politics. He's not really into politics.
Well, he's involved in politics themselves, but he's never held
a government position. So it's kind of interesting that
he's like such a controversial character in our Discord about,
you know, Republican versus Democrats.
I'm will say I'm not going to get into the politics
surrounding him, and I also am not going to really talk about
the political scandals because there's just too much.
But Hunter, you should know if you don't live in the United
States or if you don't keep up with it, he has a lot of
addiction problems. And I think in Hunter's point of
view, that is very much exploited in order to make Joe
Biden look bad. It's a very common saying called
where's Hunter, especially among conservatives, like kind of as
target for like his different scandals that he has.
Hunter definitely thinks that he's a scapegoat for a lot of
things. I don't know whether that's
true. I don't know whether Hunter is a
reliable narrator. I question it a little bit after
reading his memoir. But yeah, this, he's very much
scrutinized and it, I do sympathize for him a lot because
he's gone through a lot in his life.
He has a lot of internal demons and he's probably someone that
should not be in the public eye the way that he is, and I don't
think that that probably helps him at all.
So who is the other person we're talking about today?
So this has to do with his relationship with his brother's
widow. Wow.
His brother Beau Biden sadly died in 2015.
He was really, really, really close with his brother, and soon
after his brother's death, he ended up having an affair with
his brother's wife, Hallie. Hallie, I will say I feel bad
because in this episode it was very hard for me to learn a lot
about her as an individual. She's a very private person so I
didn't learn that much about her apart from her involvement in
this story, so I'm going to take it a.
Little sometimes. Yeah, I'm going to take an
unconventional path, like I'm going to just talk about Hunter
until we get to when Hallie enters the story.
But she was married to Beau Biden for a number of years.
And this story, honestly, is a little bit more about like, yes,
it's about the relationship between these two, but it's
mostly about the bond and the love between these two brothers
and how that eventually turns into this relationship.
I was just going to say that that has definitely happened on
this show, that sometimes there's one person in the
relationship that we cannot find much about.
Reminds me of the Neil Armstrong episode where?
We were. Just kind of like his wife.
I don't know. We don't know much about her
besides like where she was born and such.
So, yeah, I'm sure, well, you'll have a little bit more than
that, but I'm intrigued. I mean, it's crazy.
It's that story. It's really sad.
But it also is super intriguing, I think because of how
scandalous it is. It is kind of like something you
would read about in a book or in a movie or honestly something I
would do on The Sims or something.
But it is tragic. Yeah.
I'm. I'm interested to see how it all
went down. I don't really know all the
details so. Yeah, I feel like they're the
Biden family in general, their story, like they just had so
much happen to them. And I feel like it probably is
like a psychologist's dream, like there's.
Just so. Much that connects and like you
can really see the different parallel between different
things and I'm I'm sure in however many years it will be
like a Crown type TV show about this family because there's just
a lot going on wasn't. There some show that was a about
like first ladies or something. Oh, was there I.
Well, I didn't even watch it and I don't think it made much of A
splash, but it would be kind of cool if they had like a Crown
type show about the presidents. Yeah, You know, that would be
really. I'm surprised I haven't done
that. I.
Know I mean they'd have to change the cast like every
season and I don't know if they'd do all of them but.
I mean, that's a lot of seasons that they could do.
Maybe just the main ones like George Washington.
Yeah, I guess it it would just be a very different vibe but
between the different time periods, but.
It would be. I think it would still be cool,
though. I mean, that would be really fun
if it started with George Washington and then it got all
the way up to like modern times. Yeah.
I would watch that. I'm shocked they haven't done
that. They really should.
