Transcript

00:00:00.000 All right, welcome back to Flackers Talks, the podcast, episode 18.
00:00:03.320 Today on the show, we have a major trucker update for you.
00:00:06.120 We're going to talk about why authentic protests and Nazi rallies go hand in hand.
00:00:10.640 Richard Rappoy and I went to Midget Wrestling earlier in the week.
00:00:13.360 Don't tell Peter Dinklage.
00:00:14.800 We have a very eye-opening Urban Decay section and a cringe of the week that is going to blow you away.
00:00:21.900 We'll give you a hint.
00:00:22.520 It involves crying lawyers and a person who's very confused, but their parents are even more confused than they are.
00:00:30.000 And it's also the fifth-year anniversary of Flackers Talks, so we'll celebrate that.
00:00:35.100 This and a whole lot more.
00:00:36.160 It's Flackers Talks, the podcast, episode 18, ranked the best new podcast of all time.
00:00:43.720 Because words are just words until action actually starts.
00:00:47.140 And actions speak louder than words.
00:00:48.960 But at the same time, words speak louder than actions because sometimes it's the right thing to do.
00:00:54.660 Very cool.
00:00:55.380 Flackers Talks, the podcast featuring Richard Rappoy.
00:01:04.480 I didn't know it was the fifth anniversary.
00:01:06.200 Yeah, today's the fifth anniversary of Flackers Talks.
00:01:08.260 Very cool.
00:01:08.840 Flackers Talks is good.
00:01:10.140 Five-year-go-flackers laughing, funny.
00:01:12.820 That's like college.
00:01:13.900 That's like college, an extra year for special college people.
00:01:18.020 Do a good job, be funny, make a video, meet President Trump.
00:01:22.100 Try to make people laugh.
00:01:23.200 Make people laugh and new friends.
00:01:25.280 So, yeah, more importantly than that, way more importantly than the fifth-year anniversary of Flackers Talks being today, is Black History Month.
00:01:34.340 It's Black History Month.
00:01:35.560 Oh, yeah.
00:01:36.000 So on behalf of the show, Richard Rappoy, do you want to say a few things about Black History Month?
00:01:41.380 Keep making history, guys.
00:01:45.380 Doesn't sound like you prepared anything.
00:01:46.780 No, I'm not prepared.
00:01:48.380 Keep doing it.
00:01:49.140 Keep it up.
00:01:49.760 Keep it up.
00:01:50.260 Maybe one day I'll get my own month.
00:01:51.700 Yeah, maybe one day.
00:01:53.940 Keep it up.
00:01:55.180 Richard Rappoy and I just got back from Midget Wrestling.
00:01:58.560 Yeah.
00:01:59.140 And that's what they call it.
00:02:00.080 They call it Midget Wrestling, so it's not like an offensive term.
00:02:02.640 It was on the sign.
00:02:03.440 It was on the sign.
00:02:04.180 And they have shirts.
00:02:04.860 They're selling shirts.
00:02:05.800 And also-
00:02:06.580 It said mini Dwarfenators.
00:02:08.060 That's what they're called.
00:02:08.640 Yeah, they're also called the Dwarfenators, which isn't much better.
00:02:11.220 But dwarf is the correct term for them.
00:02:14.500 And then they just put Midget Wrestling on the sign.
00:02:17.600 Yeah.
00:02:17.760 And we were like, okay, it's cool.
00:02:19.180 It was a fantastic experience.
00:02:22.000 There were some people who were getting some stuff out of their system at Midget Wrestling.
00:02:28.260 Yeah.
00:02:28.460 Let's just say that.
00:02:29.220 Some people who took it really seriously.
00:02:30.960 Very seriously.
00:02:31.920 We saw a Wayne's World guy who had a Wayne's World outfit and then long hair.
00:02:36.420 Flannel tied around his waist.
00:02:38.120 Flannel around his waist, long hair, big glasses.
00:02:40.940 He had an 80s car outside.
00:02:42.580 It was pretty cool.
00:02:43.400 That was cool, actually.
00:02:44.220 And then there was this lady.
00:02:45.940 Look at this lady.
00:02:46.840 This lady was just absolutely going insane.
00:02:49.620 Absolutely loving it, but very into it.
00:02:51.940 Yeah.
00:02:52.360 It's like a hobby for them.
00:02:53.780 I mean, if you're going to Midget Wrestling, you have to suspend disbelief a little bit.
00:02:58.900 But these people, it felt like they were too quick to do that.
00:03:02.520 Yeah.
00:03:02.640 This was a full new reality for them.
00:03:04.440 And they were in like, ref, you missed that ref.
00:03:07.060 And it's like, yeah, the ref's looking away.
00:03:08.720 The ref never called anything the whole time.
00:03:10.660 This is, yeah, this is some of the stuff we were seeing at Midget Wrestling.
00:03:13.120 I feel like my phone is just, it shoots like a yellow, it shoots in yellow now.
00:03:17.840 Everything's like a yellow tinge to it.
00:03:19.980 You got that iPhone.
00:03:20.980 I have an iPhone 10.
00:03:21.940 I have an iPhone 10.
00:03:22.920 And I remember when I first got the iPhone 10, it was the clearest thing ever.
00:03:26.560 These photos are so good.
00:03:27.760 I can't believe it.
00:03:28.960 And now my iPhone 10 sucks.
00:03:30.740 I can't take a photo.
00:03:31.660 Everything looks yellow.
00:03:32.760 So.
00:03:33.380 Hey, you could keep complaining.
00:03:34.920 Yeah.
00:03:35.200 I don't know what happened.
00:03:36.100 And, um, but Peter Dinklage also recently, uh, was in the news.
00:03:40.440 Yeah.
00:03:40.620 So this ties in.
00:03:41.540 It's all news.
00:03:42.020 It ties in.
00:03:42.580 It ties in.
00:03:43.260 He was very upset that people are still telling the Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs story.
00:03:47.900 Yeah.
00:03:48.700 And he gets mad about it.
00:03:49.200 The most, one of the most famous fairy tales that was adapted by, by Disney of all time.
00:03:53.420 You know, the fairy tale isn't going to change now, Peter.
00:03:55.940 Yeah.
00:03:56.240 He wants the, he wants the, he doesn't want to see little people working.
00:03:59.740 He, he, he hates when other actors get work and he's not, he's just sitting there.
00:04:04.140 Peter Dinklage.
00:04:04.960 He, it's like, I feel like that name is a perfect match for him.
00:04:07.840 Dinkle.
00:04:08.160 You know, like Brock Lesnar is like a great name for Brock Lesnar.
00:04:11.200 Absolutely.
00:04:11.920 Peter, he's a little Dinklage.
00:04:13.440 He's a Dinklage.
00:04:13.820 He's a little Dinklage.
00:04:14.960 I mean, and yo, good actor.
00:04:16.360 Enjoy.
00:04:17.100 Uh, you don't speak for every single little person.
00:04:19.660 Yeah.
00:04:20.100 Right.
00:04:20.260 Exactly.
00:04:21.000 These little people had a great time with the show and like, yeah, it's midget wrestling.
00:04:24.500 Everyone's there to see the little people wrestling like this, but we're not like
00:04:28.060 exploiting them.
00:04:28.960 It's not like a zoo where it's a show.
00:04:31.700 Everyone's there having a good time.
00:04:33.280 The ref, is that a rap boy gave their, the ref a shot.
00:04:37.200 Yeah.
00:04:37.380 The ref asked me, he goes, Hey man, after I gave him a high five, he's like, Hey man,
00:04:41.460 crown apple, crown apple, give me a shot.
00:04:43.940 I'm like, all right, man, I'll do it.
00:04:45.520 Immediately putting us to work.
00:04:46.920 The ref also had a girlfriend with the flottest stomach I've ever seen.
00:04:50.280 Yeah.
00:04:50.540 That was weird.
00:04:51.380 So like these guys are having fun.
00:04:52.780 They go city to city.
00:04:54.100 Some girls like them.
00:04:55.540 They're drinking.
00:04:56.960 They're putting on a show.
00:04:58.160 They're living, they're hanging out with friends and they put on a little show.
00:05:01.940 And like Peter Dinklage wouldn't be happy about that because we're all watching the little
00:05:05.860 show they're putting on.
00:05:06.900 But would you rather these people be working at state farm or something?
00:05:09.780 Yeah.
00:05:09.960 Go to Wendy's, go work at Wendy's.
00:05:11.700 Is that better?
00:05:12.280 Peter Dinklage doesn't want people working though.
00:05:13.680 Only he can get a job.
00:05:14.700 Yeah, dude.
00:05:16.840 There's just that weird vibe where someone comes out to be, Oh, I'm the most famous spokesperson.
00:05:21.280 Like I'm the most famous trans person.
00:05:22.780 I'm the most famous gay guy.
00:05:25.220 And then you think you speak for everyone.
00:05:27.160 Yeah.
00:05:27.260 It's like, no, dude, get away from me.
00:05:29.280 You're just like, don't touch me.
00:05:30.840 We just had the same disease or, uh, you know, birth defect or whatever.
00:05:35.080 I don't know.
00:05:35.960 Yeah.
00:05:36.260 So it's, it's kind of ridiculous.
00:05:38.620 Peter Dinklage is doing too much.
00:05:40.700 Uh, and I get it.
00:05:42.040 It was a great show.
00:05:43.220 These guys are like, I think the, the wrestlers are kind of like theater people.
00:05:47.200 It's way more theater than it is.
00:05:49.000 Yeah.
00:05:49.460 It's a big show.
00:05:50.440 I get it.
00:05:51.460 It's show business.
00:05:52.420 Eighth grade.
00:05:53.100 I was in the Grinch.
00:05:54.360 I was actually supposed to be the Grinch, but I was the only, I was the only one who could
00:05:59.440 fit in the Santa suit.
00:06:00.640 So they made me be Santa, but that's showbiz.
00:06:02.600 I get it.
00:06:03.120 That's how the show works.
00:06:04.040 The teacher never thought you were going to be the Grinch.
00:06:06.120 She was like, let's just give him hope before we dump Santa on him.
00:06:08.580 Yeah.
00:06:08.740 They're basically like, it was either going to be you or him, but I think you're the only
00:06:11.800 one who could fit in the suit.
00:06:12.820 Told me that in front of the whole class.
00:06:14.200 Very embarrassing.
00:06:15.140 Very embarrassing.
00:06:16.340 Childhood moment.
00:06:16.860 What did you do?
00:06:17.540 I was, I was Santa and I did a great job.
00:06:20.620 And yeah, that's showbiz.
00:06:22.220 I get it.
00:06:22.880 Yeah.
00:06:23.100 These guys are putting on a show.
00:06:24.380 They did a great job.
00:06:25.480 We had a great time.
00:06:26.380 Hold on.
00:06:26.700 One more thing.
00:06:27.280 Yeah.
00:06:27.460 Before you cut away, because, uh, little people, dwarfs, midgets, they have a
00:06:34.020 very specific shape.
00:06:36.020 They have super large butts.
00:06:38.980 Dump truck ass.
00:06:39.960 Yeah.
00:06:40.440 So I wouldn't describe it like that, but a lot of, yeah.
00:06:43.860 A lot of these guys had dump truck asses and a lot of the moves were butt based moves.
00:06:48.400 Exactly.
00:06:48.900 So I don't want to skip over this because they were using like their butt as like their
00:06:52.560 big weapon.
00:06:53.520 Like, so they jumped on somebody, put their butt in his face.
00:06:57.940 Uh, they were shoving things in the other guy's butt.
00:07:01.500 Yeah.
00:07:02.320 Little weapons.
00:07:03.320 They had weapons.
00:07:04.120 One guy put a pipe in someone's butt and the guy was like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:07:07.700 And then he made the ref smell it.
00:07:09.700 Yeah.
00:07:09.920 So it's a show.
00:07:10.800 It's a show.
00:07:11.400 There's a lot of butt stuff and they had dump truck asses.
00:07:13.780 It's very butt based comedy, but it's a good show.
00:07:16.340 So you did a great job.
00:07:17.320 We highly recommend other people going to the photo with them.
00:07:20.040 They were so cool.
00:07:20.760 We were VIP front row.
00:07:22.100 So yeah, if you're going to a Dwarfenators wrestling, you got to buy VIP, you get a first
00:07:27.300 row seat, you get a picture with them after just spend the extra.
00:07:30.480 They were jumping in the stands.
00:07:32.480 They got involved.
00:07:33.940 People were getting hit.
00:07:35.260 And then the last one, someone went to the hospital and then, and then, sorry, this is
00:07:40.900 a, it was a fun night out.
00:07:42.600 Um, and then they had like the third match of the night and then it was just two regular
00:07:48.560 size people.
00:07:49.280 They were like five, four.
00:07:50.480 Yeah.
00:07:50.680 They came out and I was like, what?
00:07:52.700 Yeah.
00:07:53.200 So that was the only thing that held me back.
00:07:55.160 But those guys were the ones who could do the most.
00:07:56.880 They spun the most.
00:07:57.760 They did flips.
00:07:58.420 Yeah.
00:07:58.700 It was very entertaining.
00:07:59.840 It was a great show.
00:08:00.740 No one got hurt and everyone had a fun time.
00:08:03.540 And some people, some locals from Tampa, St. Pete really, really got some stuff out of
00:08:09.640 their system.
00:08:10.220 Yeah.
00:08:10.520 Like this lady, this one lady who's, she was banging on the map.
00:08:13.700 She's going crazy.
00:08:14.560 These guys have a whole thing.
00:08:15.940 Like they have a whole performance.
00:08:17.180 They already know what's going to happen before it ends.
00:08:19.120 This lady's like, get up.
00:08:20.340 And then they, they get the one guy who's clearly going to about to be the villain.
00:08:23.840 He walks out and then he just flicks off the crowd.
00:08:26.240 And it's like, you get out of here.
00:08:30.360 Yeah.
00:08:30.580 So they loved it.
00:08:31.480 Yeah.
00:08:31.700 I thought it'd be funny if you like bought every seat to this and then just had everyone
00:08:35.740 sit there quietly and took a bit on the, on the wrestlers.
00:08:39.240 Like a no engagement show.
00:08:40.440 Yeah.
00:08:40.880 No engagement show.
00:08:41.900 No audience help.
00:08:42.840 And he's just a big bit.
00:08:44.760 Um, yeah, we can move on.
00:08:46.180 We have a big announcement kind of, Oh, someone last week posted a picture of them watching
00:08:51.680 the podcast in their Tesla.
00:08:53.740 Oh yeah.
00:08:54.120 So one of our viewers owns a Tesla.
00:08:56.840 Nice.
00:08:57.460 Nice.
00:08:57.900 That's pretty cool.
00:08:59.180 Good.
00:08:59.660 High, highbrow clientele tuning into the podcast.
00:09:02.500 So you're in good company.
00:09:03.520 Everyone watching this right now.
00:09:04.700 Very sophisticated.
00:09:05.620 Show us how you watch it and tag us.
00:09:07.440 We appreciate it.
00:09:08.380 It goes a long way.
00:09:09.500 All right.
00:09:09.760 Let's get into some of the action.
00:09:10.840 We have a bunch of COVID muppetry this week.
00:09:13.040 We're going to do what we usually do.
00:09:14.160 We're going to bang through a bunch of stories and we're going to get to the good stuff a little
00:09:16.840 bit later.
00:09:17.480 The Trudeau, the urban decay, the cringe of the week, all that stuff's coming.
00:09:21.180 Uh, but in the quick stuff, um, we have another case of a person being removed this time from
00:09:26.960 a heart transplant list because they're not vaccinated.
00:09:29.760 Yep.
00:09:30.640 Always fun.
00:09:31.480 We have a lady, um, we have some parents in Australia who aren't able to see their kids
00:09:36.140 in the hospital because the parents aren't vaccinated.
00:09:38.540 That's pure punishment.
00:09:39.600 That has nothing to do with safety or it's just a negative, uh, reinforcement almost makes
00:09:44.620 a lot of sense.
00:09:45.300 And then daily wire just posted a, an article, a Johns Hopkins study came out.
00:09:51.080 Saying lockdowns had little to no effect on COVID, but a devastating effect, uh, socially
00:09:57.500 suicides, everything up, people being locked down, depression, pills, overdoses, fentanyl,
00:10:05.420 all the bad stuff, but they had to lock everyone down and keep the cold, keep the cold away.
00:10:09.720 Uh, yeah.
00:10:10.480 People like us were saying that on week three of two weeks to slow the spread and, uh,
00:10:15.420 took Johns Hopkins, I guess, 80 or 20 months.
00:10:18.540 It was busy.
00:10:20.100 They must be, it must've been calculating the data.
00:10:22.860 Oh, wait, turns out none of this, uh, actually made sense.
00:10:25.600 This wasn't important.
00:10:26.460 We shouldn't have been doing this.
00:10:27.540 How did we know right away?
00:10:28.880 We did the two.
00:10:29.760 The vibes were off.
00:10:30.680 We kept it.
00:10:31.740 Yeah.
00:10:32.320 We did it.
00:10:32.900 So we sold the spread.
00:10:33.780 We did the two weeks to slow the spread.
00:10:35.360 We said, all right, we'll wear the mask.
00:10:36.680 We will stay inside that we realized quickly.
00:10:39.100 When you, when you realize two weeks to slow the spread didn't affect Walmart target or anybody
00:10:42.760 else who was a big box retailer, then you're like, huh?
00:10:45.500 All right.
00:10:45.780 Maybe we just eat this and just get on with our lives.
00:10:49.380 Yeah.
00:10:49.820 Um, no, that doesn't little, just eating it and going on with your lives doesn't transfer
00:10:54.080 $3.7 trillion of wealth to the wealthiest individuals in America.
00:10:58.280 So obviously couldn't do that.
00:11:00.200 So turns out everything they told us was a lie.
00:11:02.820 I am changing my approach going forward.
00:11:05.300 I'm eating lead paint.
00:11:06.900 I'm looking, I'm looking in the microwave, eating paint chips.
00:11:09.480 I'm looking in the microwave of two inches away from my face.
00:11:12.100 I bet that's probably good for me.
00:11:13.920 Yeah.
00:11:14.380 I'm sure they've been lying about that too.
00:11:16.220 I'm trying to think what else do I want to jump?
00:11:17.720 Diet Cokes are back on the table.
00:11:19.260 Yeah.
00:11:19.700 Diet Cokes.
00:11:20.460 I don't know.
00:11:21.060 I don't care.
00:11:21.640 Everyone says how bad they are.
00:11:22.940 It's like who?
00:11:23.680 The people that used to recommend smoking cigarettes.
00:11:25.920 Yeah.
00:11:26.340 I'm sure Diet Coke's great.
00:11:27.500 Trust the experts.
00:11:28.460 Look at where they let us.
00:11:29.520 Yeah.
00:11:30.320 So everything's back on the table.
00:11:31.560 So all our vices are back on the table.
00:11:34.520 Yep.
00:11:35.760 Leah Thomas, Leah Thomas update, our favorite transgender swimmer from University of Pennsylvania.
00:11:41.000 There was an article this week where UPenn said if they don't let Leah Thomas swim, they're willing to sue.
00:11:48.920 And then there was a thing that came out for college athletes that said when it comes to transgender athletes, there's going to be a new board that goes through the data and decides whether or not the person has unfair advantage or not.
00:12:01.160 Basically, the NCAA said, hey, we're leaving it up to the respective sports to develop their rules.
00:12:08.260 And then USA Swimming or whoever is like, okay, we have some ideas of what we want to do.
00:12:13.800 And that's what you're talking about.
00:12:15.160 Like testosterone levels, certain things like that.
00:12:18.040 Yep.
00:12:18.320 Testosterone levels over time, stuff like that.
00:12:20.400 They're going to compare it.
00:12:21.900 So it looks like the free run for Leah might be over and Penn might have to sue.
00:12:25.160 Yeah.
00:12:25.660 Because those T levels, I know where they're at.
00:12:29.620 And they're up here.
00:12:31.420 They're up there.
00:12:33.300 So yeah.
00:12:33.700 And then Leah Thomas, then UPenn released a letter that was saying how the team supports her and blah, blah, blah.
00:12:41.800 The team has a diverse background.
00:12:43.340 An open, anonymous, and unsigned letter.
00:12:46.640 An unsigned letter.
00:12:47.600 So a couple people just said, hey, this is how the team thinks.
00:12:50.060 And then a lot of people were like, yeah, I don't know.
00:12:53.020 Maybe.
00:12:53.520 I'm not signing it.
00:12:54.520 That don't sound right.
00:12:55.940 Anonymous letter that the coach probably wrote up because he wants the bonus for winning the Ivy League championship.
00:13:01.220 Coach loves getting bonuses and he loves winning.
00:13:03.480 He loves extending his contract.
00:13:04.880 Under the guise of equality.
00:13:07.020 So yeah.
00:13:07.740 We'll keep you guys updated on that.
00:13:09.080 That's our favorite story to follow.
00:13:10.300 We've been on that story for like months now.
00:13:12.460 Yeah, and we actually keep getting proven right.
00:13:14.760 Like now they're actually redefining the rules.
00:13:18.580 So if you make a stink, it actually helps.
00:13:21.900 Exactly.
00:13:22.840 Michael Phelps weighed in.
00:13:23.960 Certain other celebrities weighed in.
00:13:25.280 Like this is crazy.
00:13:26.560 So we will see what happens.
00:13:29.020 We will keep you guys posted.
00:13:30.420 We can move on to the Urban Decay section brought to you by FleaTheCity.com.
00:13:34.880 Michael Rapoport, who we spoke about a few weeks ago, he did a video where he was recording people on the Upper West Side
00:13:42.320 Rite Aid just in broad daylight looting the place, loading up bags.
00:13:47.500 He didn't do anything to stop them.
00:13:48.820 And then they ran out.
00:13:50.100 And then he did a self-
00:13:50.880 Look at this.
00:13:51.660 Look at this.
00:13:52.300 This guy's just stealing.
00:13:53.960 Nobody's stopping him.
00:13:55.100 Are you kidding me?
00:13:56.280 Yeah.
00:13:56.460 Meanwhile, the-
00:13:57.320 He's never watched This Week in Culture.
00:13:58.920 Yeah.
00:13:59.320 Not once.
00:14:00.060 Sorry it hit your bubble in Upper West Side, Michael Rapoport.
00:14:03.300 I thought you elected Joe Biden.
00:14:04.520 Oh my God.
00:14:04.940 He's thrown away.
00:14:06.060 Oh my God.
00:14:06.740 It came to 82nd Street.
00:14:08.700 Yeah.
00:14:09.020 Who would have guessed it?
00:14:09.800 Now he's got to what?
00:14:10.540 Move to Westchester and let the city rot for everyone else?
00:14:13.180 Probably.
00:14:14.040 So he did a follow-up video where Rite Aid's now basically closed.
00:14:17.900 The shelves are all empty because they got like robbed to death.
00:14:21.280 And the store is going to close, which we talked about.
00:14:23.740 That's what happens.
00:14:24.460 People say, oh, these stores have insurance.
00:14:26.640 These stores have insurance.
00:14:27.420 There's people, you know, stealing.
00:14:28.840 It's not a big deal.
00:14:30.000 They have insurance and their prices go up and that gets put onto the customer.
00:14:33.220 And then the store closes because they say, hey, you guys have been losing money for the
00:14:38.260 last two months.
00:14:38.940 We're going to close the Tenderloin District, San Francisco Rite Aid.
00:14:43.080 Sorry.
00:14:43.940 The Upper West Side Rite Aid is getting closed now.
00:14:46.440 And then the people lose their resources because some street rats want to take what they want.
00:14:50.060 And it's funny because it used to be the city locations were the best because you had so
00:14:55.000 much foot traffic.
00:14:55.760 You do so much volume that it's like, yeah, we'll pay the expensive lease because we know
00:15:01.180 we're going to make it up.
00:15:02.240 And now it's becoming, let's move to suburban places where the police jurisdictions will
00:15:06.980 actually protect us a little bit.
00:15:08.420 Yeah.
00:15:08.580 The cops don't do anything because the rules are put in place where if you commit crime
00:15:13.820 like this, it doesn't matter.
00:15:14.980 I was looking at this, like, for example, if a person is looting like this and you're in
00:15:19.580 New York City, do you stop them?
00:15:22.000 I make it hard for them.
00:15:23.400 I go, I would say, what the fuck are you doing?
00:15:25.560 I'd also like maybe push them, maybe block them.
00:15:28.300 I do.
00:15:28.900 Maybe grab the stuff.
00:15:29.760 The best move you can do is the last second when they're about to go out the door, you
00:15:33.460 just yank and throw it back in and then you go like, what?
00:15:37.760 I will say, I will say people and mostly employees in the past have tried to stop shoplifters and
00:15:44.020 have been like stabbed, you know?
00:15:45.740 Yeah.
00:15:46.040 So this is not a recommendation, but it can, it can work.
00:15:50.440 And especially if you're just like there, cause these people are street rats and they're
00:15:54.320 working on the assumption that nobody's going to call them out or they're just going to go,
00:15:58.160 Ooh, ah, and then let them walk out, you know?
00:16:01.580 Um, so the easier you make it for them in general, the more often they're going to do
00:16:05.640 it like anything, you know, uh, incentives one way or the other.
00:16:09.780 And so, I mean, I like the idea of people rattling these shoplifters and just messing
00:16:14.740 with them.
00:16:15.880 There should be something done.
00:16:18.180 It's tricky.
00:16:19.440 I feel like if you're in New York city and someone's stealing and they're running out
00:16:23.700 and you clothesline them, the cops are going to come and be like, yeah, he tried to steal
00:16:27.940 like 150 bucks worth of stuff, but you broke his teeth.
00:16:31.200 Yeah.
00:16:31.780 You're going, you're arrested.
00:16:33.280 I feel like you would get arrested.
00:16:34.640 We tried searching for an example of that on Google, if that ever happened.
00:16:38.280 And I couldn't find any, so it was short notice for the show.
00:16:41.680 So I'm sure you guys have some examples of people trying to stop crime.
00:16:45.160 And the person who tries to stop the crime gets in more trouble than the criminal.
00:16:48.240 But I think it's a nice gray area.
00:16:49.760 Like what is the street rat who shoplifts a thousand dollars of merchandise at a time
00:16:53.900 going to go file a police report?
00:16:55.360 Cause you were too rough on him.
00:16:57.580 I don't know.
00:16:58.460 I think there's a gray area.
00:16:59.140 But I think if you're in New York and it's Richard Rappoy or Fleckis or someone like
00:17:02.500 that, I think they get, yeah.
00:17:04.640 You think so?
00:17:05.040 Oh yeah.
00:17:05.340 I am very hesitant to get physical with anyone in a, in, in a blue city.
00:17:09.900 I'm just saying I will applaud it at any time.
00:17:11.880 Because the cops don't protect you.
00:17:13.060 I saw there's a thing, San Francisco man responsible for half of cities, anti-Asian
00:17:17.620 hate crimes released.
00:17:19.900 So it's like, who is, who's protecting you?
00:17:22.180 Good luck.
00:17:22.300 Good luck Asians in San Francisco.
00:17:24.160 Oh, stop Asian hate.
00:17:25.380 It's like, you kind of found the guy doing it.
00:17:27.640 You just let him out.
00:17:28.720 You let him out.
00:17:29.540 It's like a Hannibal Lecter type guy.
00:17:30.880 They wheel him out and he's just like, he's an Asian and he's just looking to get him.
00:17:35.540 He's looking to swing.
00:17:37.180 Oh man.
00:17:38.020 We started this with Michael Rappaport.
00:17:39.700 It's always fun when it, the urban decay finally touches someone with, you know, oh,
00:17:45.480 my right aid?
00:17:46.900 No.
00:17:47.680 And it's like, yeah, you live in Manhattan.
00:17:49.380 It's the whole area where street rat shit goes on.
00:17:52.480 And they know where the nice areas are and where they can steal from.
00:17:55.500 And I hit that right aid last week.
00:17:57.140 I got to go down three streets.
00:17:59.060 So I think it's funny for someone who Michael Rappaport is obviously a big scumbag.
00:18:03.280 He's like Trump, you Trump racist.
00:18:05.900 And his entire shtick is yelling into the mic and like speaking in hyperbole.
00:18:10.900 And so now he's, now he's taking a stand apparently.
00:18:14.000 Yeah.
00:18:14.240 Law and order time.
00:18:15.140 Law and order time.
00:18:15.960 Mike, it, it, it touched your foot, you know?
00:18:18.460 So I thought we were, yeah, I thought we elected your guy and the Trump stuff going to
00:18:22.200 stop.
00:18:22.660 And it's like, what can we do now?
00:18:24.060 Joe Biden doesn't stop anything.
00:18:25.680 Yeah.
00:18:26.280 So we don't like these blue people to the cities.
00:18:28.400 Maybe George Gascon needs to go.
00:18:30.600 Yeah.
00:18:30.900 So, Hey, live with it, Michael.
00:18:33.420 Enjoy it because I personally like it.
00:18:36.240 Yeah.
00:18:36.440 I don't mind.
00:18:37.560 I think it's well, and then we'll get to that.
00:18:39.540 I don't like it, but I like people suffering the consequences of the shitty voting they've
00:18:44.260 done for years and years.
00:18:45.100 Yeah.
00:18:45.680 And that's why you need to get out of the cities.
00:18:47.160 It's not everyone's fight to stay and defend the cities.
00:18:49.560 If it's, if you're called to stay and fight for New York or San Francisco or LA,
00:18:54.180 that's great.
00:18:55.060 More power to you for everyone else.
00:18:58.140 There's a, there's an option.
00:18:59.480 And that's why, that's actually why our friends started that company, fleethecity.com.
00:19:03.840 Yep.
00:19:04.040 It's a real estate concierge service where it's basically you go onto the website, you tell
00:19:08.860 them what city you're from or city you're leaving, San Francisco, LA, New York, and you
00:19:13.760 say where you want to go.
00:19:14.720 And what do you want?
00:19:15.360 You want to get a ranch in Montana, Idaho, Arizona, Arizona.
00:19:19.200 You need a bunker, you want some solar panels, you want high-speed internet and a garden
00:19:24.040 and a bunch of acres of land, multiple houses, whatever you want, they can hook it up.
00:19:29.680 It's a fantastic website, fleethecity.com.
00:19:33.480 They're friends of the show.
00:19:34.500 Tell them Fleck has sent you.
00:19:35.620 Go check it out.
00:19:36.660 If you need to get out of your Democrat-run city that is going to the ground and it's a
00:19:42.080 place where police aren't protecting you and the community is getting destroyed, it's
00:19:45.940 kind of time to maybe start fresh.
00:19:47.460 A lot of people work from home these days.
00:19:49.940 There's no reason to be in these cities unless you really have to be.
00:19:52.820 So if you're trying to get out, fleethecity.com, fill out the info, and they can get you relocated
00:19:57.640 to a ranch somewhere very nice.
00:19:59.800 Mostly Idaho, Montana, Arizona, but basically anywhere you want to go.
00:20:03.660 And you just pick out what you want, you tell them all the things you want, they hook it
00:20:06.800 up, they handle so much of the process, and it's been very successful because so many
00:20:11.200 people are feeling that same urge.
00:20:12.780 They feel not safe, and it's like, what are you going to do, raise a family in San Francisco,
00:20:16.160 or do you want to go raise a family on 100 acres with like three close friends and start
00:20:20.520 a little compound?
00:20:21.920 Hey, a little compound sounds nice.
00:20:23.340 A little compound sounds real nice.
00:20:24.920 And so the police aren't doing anything, and now companies like Target actually have like
00:20:29.840 their own forensic office.
00:20:31.900 You were telling me about this.
00:20:33.080 Yeah.
00:20:33.220 So, I mean, we've seen it before where these companies have written open letters to Joe
00:20:37.720 Biden being like, please help us.
00:20:40.440 Because they're targeted by organized criminals who buy or who will steal a computer, say, for
00:20:50.260 example.
00:20:50.580 And so not only does Target or Walmart or whoever lose that laptop or whatever they stole, but
00:20:56.760 now they lost the money, they lost the potential profit, and now they're competing against the
00:21:02.120 person who stole it, selling it online for a cheaper price.
00:21:05.280 So it's like a two-pronged thing where it's like, yeah, if I buy one computer a year, oh,
00:21:11.980 dude, this eBay one is cheap.
00:21:15.300 It's a no-brainer.
00:21:16.500 It's arbitrage.
00:21:17.460 Exactly.
00:21:18.160 And so, but some people, Target specifically is the one we were talking about, they don't
00:21:23.400 take this lying down exactly.
00:21:24.960 So Target basically is, they're headquartered in Minneapolis, right?
00:21:30.400 And they have maybe the best loss prevention game of any big retailer, and they literally
00:21:36.960 have forensic services laboratories.
00:21:40.120 And so these forensic labs are certified to do everything like fingerprints, video analysis,
00:21:46.320 blah, blah, blah.
00:21:46.680 Mostly the stuff that they need at Target.
00:21:48.800 And then sometimes police departments will like send video or send fingerprints or something
00:21:54.220 to get analyzed by Target, which is just hilarious.
00:21:57.680 Yeah.
00:21:57.900 Target's the police now because the police don't do anything.
00:22:00.200 And Target is losing so much money that they need to create their own little police force.
00:22:04.160 And they actually get people.
00:22:05.360 There's people that are like known thieves from Target, and they'll build a case, like
00:22:09.860 a dossier on them.
00:22:11.080 So they'll steal like 500 bucks of stuff, 200 bucks, 600 bucks.
00:22:15.020 And they'll just slowly tack it up until it's over a certain threshold.
00:22:18.640 I think it was $3,000 for the example we saw.
00:22:20.960 Yeah.
00:22:21.060 It depends on the state.
00:22:22.060 And then it's like, all right, cool.
00:22:23.100 Over 3,000.
00:22:24.020 Now we got you.
00:22:24.800 Next time you come in, you're arrested.
00:22:26.640 Here's your files.
00:22:27.780 We've been spying on you.
00:22:29.100 Here's you stealing every single time.
00:22:30.680 Oh, pictures of you dated this.
00:22:33.040 Like they have people in a back room specifically doing this.
00:22:36.040 And so here, let me just read a quote.
00:22:37.580 It says, headquarters tracks the people who are impacting the stores the most.
00:22:40.320 This former Minnesota Target employee told Business Insider in an email interview, sometimes
00:22:44.900 we are told only to collect information, but do not apprehend.
00:22:47.800 This is because a Target investigator is working with law enforcement to press charges and get
00:22:51.700 those people arrested for a long time.
00:22:53.820 Yeah.
00:22:54.140 So it's like, if someone steals, the cops won't arrest them.
00:22:58.220 So you have to keep collecting the data, keep collecting the evidence.
00:23:01.960 So then when they steal and it's like an actual theft theft, like thousands of dollars, a felony.
00:23:06.820 Grand theft larceny.
00:23:07.500 Grand theft larceny.
00:23:08.080 Is what they're looking for.
00:23:08.960 They're looking for that threshold.
00:23:10.420 So it's like, all right, if the cops aren't going to do it, we'll do it ourselves.
00:23:13.380 And we're going to keep the files.
00:23:15.100 So when this person commits grand theft larceny, they go down.
00:23:18.620 Well, you get 50 bucks and it's like, you basically waste your time, the police's time,
00:23:22.220 and then the shoplifter will be back shoplifting.
00:23:24.180 You hit them with that three grand grand larceny.
00:23:26.440 It says they will continue letting you steal all while they're documenting the value amount
00:23:30.300 of every single item that you're stealing, said Aranello in the video.
00:23:34.920 They will wait until it reaches or exceeds the amount that it takes to make it a grand
00:23:38.220 theft larceny, which is an actual felony.
00:23:40.460 Just walk into Target, grab a Snickers and like a Diet Coke.
00:23:43.220 Just this.
00:23:44.780 $3.
00:23:45.600 You stay under three grand, you're good.
00:23:47.540 Building your tab.
00:23:49.260 Hold on.
00:23:50.020 And then I had one more.
00:23:52.960 Yeah.
00:23:53.260 But that's basically the gist of it.
00:23:54.880 And then there was a girl who went viral on TikTok saying, stealing from Target for years
00:23:58.760 and thinking nothing of it.
00:24:00.080 And then them compiling a whole case against me over the years and letting me steal over
00:24:03.400 3,000 so they can actually send me to jail.
00:24:06.120 So I love that.
00:24:07.420 Yeah.
00:24:08.160 Shout out to Target.
00:24:09.340 I'm surprised.
00:24:09.880 Walmart.
00:24:10.360 Hey, law and order, Target.
00:24:11.940 Thank you.
00:24:13.120 I'm surprised, except that you also donated to BLM and were a huge pussy when it counted.
00:24:17.500 Yeah.
00:24:17.820 And you didn't take a stand for that.
00:24:18.980 And now these are the same people that are robbing from you.
00:24:21.260 Yeah.
00:24:21.540 So you're almost there.
00:24:24.000 Yeah.
00:24:24.320 I want to, I would love to see Walmart do a similar thing because.
00:24:27.940 And then like a police thing.
00:24:29.380 And then maybe you can get like a little jail in the Walmart.
00:24:32.240 So you get arrested in the store and then you have your little Walmart jurisdiction and
00:24:36.580 you're kept like serving.
00:24:38.220 You have to serve a few weeks in the Walmart jail.
00:24:40.680 Yeah.
00:24:41.040 Well, hey man, this might be the way things are trending.
00:24:43.440 Corporate prisons and corporate like.
00:24:45.820 The corporations are the police.
00:24:47.360 Yeah.
00:24:48.020 So I feel like that's a political theory for some people.
00:24:51.240 They have this picture, this, uh, like I was reading the articles on the Target crime
00:24:55.800 lab, knowing we were going to talk about this.
00:24:57.340 They have this picture of this guy looking at a, under a blue light at a spot, the Target
00:25:02.100 dog gift card.
00:25:04.520 Oh, hold on.
00:25:05.140 I have one more story.
00:25:05.900 Sorry.
00:25:06.860 Um, this is a Reddit story about Target, uh, loss prevention.
00:25:11.500 A guy I knew from high school had an elaborate scheme that he was pulling on Target.
00:25:14.520 He would offer to buy broken Xbox three 60 from people on Craigslist for 50 bucks.
00:25:19.040 Uh, they would then bring their broken Xbox and he would pay cash.
00:25:22.520 Then he would buy a brand new working Xbox from Target, open the case, swap the broken
00:25:26.820 one for the new one, go return it to the store, get his money back.
00:25:30.400 Now he has a brand new Xbox for 50 bucks.
00:25:32.480 When Target security finally decided to grab him, they had an entire dossier on him, pictures
00:25:37.020 of him entering every store, timelines of his whereabouts, the whole nine yards turned
00:25:41.100 out.
00:25:41.440 Turns out they had been following him for weeks in all their Southern California stores.
00:25:45.000 He ended up going to prison for several years.
00:25:47.840 Anyway, that's my Target story on effectiveness.
00:25:50.080 Good.
00:25:50.580 We like Target.
00:25:51.860 They're not taking it.
00:25:53.220 They're not taking it, man.
00:25:54.200 And they're working with what they got.
00:25:55.620 If you're going to not arrest people, we'll, we'll find enough evidence, get these people
00:25:59.280 arrested.
00:25:59.660 That's great.
00:26:01.040 Another person who's not taking it is this grandma at this store.
00:26:05.140 Watch this.
00:26:05.720 This masked guy tries to leave the store with all of his stolen stuff and look who stops
00:26:10.620 him.
00:26:11.500 Go ahead.
00:26:12.200 Huh?
00:26:12.900 You going to pay for it?
00:26:15.960 Excuse me.
00:26:17.880 Take the mask off.
00:26:19.980 Take the mask off.
00:26:23.560 God damn.
00:26:24.440 Come on, bud.
00:26:30.680 Fuck off, asshole.
00:26:32.480 Come on.
00:26:33.200 Get out.
00:26:34.400 All right.
00:26:35.000 Get out.
00:26:36.500 Get out.
00:26:37.000 Take your shit and go.
00:26:39.380 Jacking up the prices for everybody else.
00:26:41.920 Based.
00:26:42.820 And that's, and like the guy who's filming is an able-bodied man.
00:26:47.140 Yeah.
00:26:47.400 Just letting a grandma.
00:26:48.320 I think he was helping in the background.
00:26:49.480 He was helping a little bit, but a lot of able-bodied people will hopefully be sprung
00:26:54.820 awake by seeing a grandma deal with the street rats in our cities instead of them.
00:27:00.060 A lot of people say, not my problem.
00:27:01.940 A lot of people go, hey, not my problem.
00:27:04.000 Yeah.
00:27:04.420 So hopefully that wakes people up.
00:27:05.720 She did more than Michael Rapaport did.
00:27:07.620 Yeah.
00:27:08.080 Don't, they're fucking stealing.
00:27:10.020 Oh, there they go.
00:27:11.140 Right in front of me.
00:27:12.020 Step up.
00:27:12.540 Rapaport.
00:27:13.040 It's a girl.
00:27:13.320 In your city?
00:27:14.100 Yeah.
00:27:14.580 Grab the bag and it's over.
00:27:16.140 Yeah.
00:27:16.720 So shout out to that bass grandma.
00:27:18.520 I love that.
00:27:19.580 And that is, that's like a final straw.
00:27:22.740 That's like a line in the sand.
00:27:23.940 It's like once the last defense is our old ladies, I feel like that needs to spring some
00:27:29.960 people awake.
00:27:30.800 Yeah.
00:27:30.980 But I think all the men are addicted to pornography.
00:27:33.940 Yeah.
00:27:34.540 So they don't, they don't wake up and they don't look and they don't do anything.
00:27:37.780 So they go, not my problem.
00:27:39.260 Get to the porn box.
00:27:40.480 Yeah.
00:27:40.680 Got to get home to the porn box.
00:27:41.940 Get my squirts, my mental squirts.
00:27:44.200 But yeah.
00:27:45.180 We got to get back to the porn box.
00:27:47.800 We love to see that lady though.
00:27:49.220 Like this, this is the kind of stuff.
00:27:51.880 And then she does it in a smart way where if, if that guy hit her, it's like, you just
00:27:56.120 hit a 70 year old woman, buddy.
00:27:57.960 That's fucking an escalated felony.
00:28:00.160 Oh yeah.
00:28:00.920 That's assault against a senior citizen.
00:28:02.920 You're in jail, jail.
00:28:04.300 And then that could be the only way to get these people arrested is you have the people
00:28:08.220 who work at the door.
00:28:09.700 Bait granny.
00:28:10.220 Bait granny.
00:28:10.760 And she's the stopper.
00:28:12.460 Imagine she works for that company.
00:28:14.120 And she goes, Hey, stop it.
00:28:15.300 We pat her up.
00:28:15.540 Yeah.
00:28:15.760 We pat her up.
00:28:16.680 Or we put her in an old outfit.
00:28:18.520 It's a young person in an old person outfit.
00:28:20.580 Johnny, uh.
00:28:21.580 Johnny Knoxville stuff.
00:28:22.340 Johnny Knoxville type shit.
00:28:23.240 Yeah.
00:28:23.460 So you have an old person there or a real old person.
00:28:25.940 Yeah.
00:28:26.160 You have an old person there.
00:28:27.140 Let me see your receipt.
00:28:28.140 Oh, you don't have one?
00:28:28.900 Give me that back.
00:28:29.540 And then you push the old lady.
00:28:31.000 Bam.
00:28:31.480 Bait granny.
00:28:32.200 Boom.
00:28:32.440 You're going to jail for assaulting an old lady.
00:28:34.640 Five to 10 years.
00:28:35.500 And if there's another pandemic, they'll let you out right away.
00:28:37.600 But you can go do whatever you want again.
00:28:39.500 Yep.
00:28:40.440 Yeah.
00:28:41.080 Yeah.
00:28:41.560 So it's more anti-Asian Asian hate crimes and you'll be out on the street in no time.
00:28:45.320 In no time.
00:28:46.200 If you guys are living in a city that you don't feel safe in, where the police aren't upholding
00:28:51.980 the law and protecting you, where the elected officials aren't either, and you feel like
00:28:55.980 it's kind of getting chaotic and getting worse and worse, it may be time to flee the city
00:29:00.220 dot com.
00:29:01.140 Yep.
00:29:01.240 Go to the website.
00:29:02.040 Put your info in.
00:29:03.240 Check out some of the available listed properties.
00:29:06.120 There's cool ranches and stuff.
00:29:07.540 You can move anywhere in the country and they'll take care of a lot of it for you.
00:29:11.240 So go check that out.
00:29:12.620 It is the answer.
00:29:13.440 I think a lot of people are going to be heading out of these blue cities and living kind of
00:29:18.640 how we used to.
00:29:19.740 Live on the land.
00:29:20.800 Have some land.
00:29:21.980 Take a walk.
00:29:22.780 Breathe some fresh air.
00:29:23.640 Get some sun.
00:29:24.900 Get a little garden.
00:29:26.120 Learn how to garden.
00:29:27.260 All right.
00:29:27.560 Moving on.
00:29:28.260 We have a very big Justin Trudeau update.
00:29:31.160 As you guys know, it's been over a week now with the truckers shutting down Ottawa.
00:29:36.320 It's going great.
00:29:37.360 A lot of honking.
00:29:38.300 People are getting upset.
00:29:39.720 Those stories of people like, they've been outside for five days and then they're making
00:29:43.800 cartoons for these people.
00:29:44.980 You remember what AOC said, though.
00:29:46.560 Protests are meant to be disruptive.
00:29:48.380 Make them uncomfortable.
00:29:49.180 Get in their face.
00:29:51.380 Yeah.
00:29:51.820 In a movie store.
00:29:52.920 In an office.
00:29:53.900 Exactly.
00:29:54.540 And this is Justin Trudeau's response.
00:29:58.060 He came out with a tweet yesterday.
00:29:59.760 Today in the House, members of Parliament unanimously condemned the anti-Semitism, Islamophobia,
00:30:05.220 anti-black racism, homophobia, and transphobia that we've seen on display in Ottawa over
00:30:10.100 the past number of days.
00:30:11.840 Together, let's keep working on making Canada more inclusive.
00:30:15.760 Nobody.
00:30:16.140 We don't do that anymore.
00:30:18.680 Shame doesn't work anymore when you're a Muppet.
00:30:21.520 Yeah.
00:30:22.120 And Justin Trudeau even said that he's all for peaceful protests like the ones he attended
00:30:27.520 with BLM last year.
00:30:29.280 We got video of six months ago of him.
00:30:31.840 But I guess he doesn't agree with this one.
00:30:33.740 So he'll just label everything Islamophobic.
00:30:37.620 Everyone's racist and hateful.
00:30:39.420 Everything's an Obia.
00:30:40.580 Everything ends in O-B-I-A.
00:30:42.480 Yeah.
00:30:42.860 We haven't seen him.
00:30:43.960 Yeah.
00:30:44.160 He obviously hasn't gone to Ottawa.
00:30:45.920 Yeah.
00:30:46.280 All this Islamophobia, anti-Semitism, anti-black racism, and homophobia, he hasn't seen any
00:30:50.860 of it because he's not there.
00:30:52.300 Yeah.
00:30:52.740 Because he's not talking to anybody.
00:30:54.180 So it's just a guess.
00:30:55.340 It's just a general guess.
00:30:56.340 It's just a guess.
00:30:57.460 And here's what some of the news anchors are saying.
00:30:59.580 Check out this lady.
00:31:00.080 Given Canada's support of Ukraine in this current crisis with Russia, I don't know if
00:31:06.560 it's far-fetched to ask, but there is concern that Russian actors could be continuing to
00:31:13.360 fuel things as this protest grows, but perhaps even instigating it from the outset.
00:31:21.780 Russia.
00:31:22.720 It may be Russia.
00:31:24.180 The Russians.
00:31:25.060 Fresh take.
00:31:26.100 Yeah.
00:31:26.440 Haven't we already done this?
00:31:27.680 Haven't we done this a million times?
00:31:28.680 It's pretty funny, too, because whenever there's an authentic protest like this, where it's
00:31:34.240 like the people actually united for the cause that is going to lead to a solution.
00:31:38.840 It's noble.
00:31:39.420 It's noble, and it's like the right way to do it.
00:31:41.820 They know they're kind of in trouble.
00:31:43.300 Then you see like these Nazi rallies pop up all over the country all of a sudden.
00:31:47.860 Very suspicious.
00:31:48.660 And everyone's talking about the Nazi rallies.
00:31:50.700 The six people in the park with no teeth.
00:31:52.700 Yeah.
00:31:53.100 Smoking cigarettes with drinking Mountain Dew.
00:31:55.460 Those are the people we need to worry about.
00:31:58.680 Yeah.
00:31:58.860 Those people can really mobilize a whole nation.
00:32:01.420 Yeah.
00:32:01.980 Those six Nazis in the park.
00:32:03.360 Those six Nazis in the park.
00:32:04.520 Like don't no media coverage for the week long shut down a city protest in Ottawa.
00:32:10.180 No need to talk about that.
00:32:11.740 They were six guys in a park who visibly have no jobs.
00:32:15.240 Yeah.
00:32:15.980 And they're yelling.
00:32:16.640 And like when you see that, like when they have the coverage, doesn't it almost like
00:32:20.000 debunk your whole point?
00:32:21.540 Like, oh, the white supremacist Nazis.
00:32:23.060 That's our country's biggest problem.
00:32:25.120 And there's six.
00:32:25.740 And then there's six in a park like doing a Heil with like a Nazi flag.
00:32:29.300 Yeah.
00:32:29.600 Like, isn't that nothing?
00:32:31.400 Do these people have real power?
00:32:32.740 Like Gavin Newsom is worse than this country's Nazis by a lot.
00:32:36.920 Thousand percent.
00:32:37.420 Gavin Newsom has made decisions that have ruined people's lives.
00:32:40.840 He has affected.
00:32:41.560 One governor making a snap decision to send all the COVID sick patients back into the nursing
00:32:45.760 home is more impactful than any Nazi influence in America over the past.
00:32:50.880 Andrew Cuomo killed 15,000 grannies.
00:32:52.700 Yeah.
00:32:53.040 And there's a guy in the park doing a Heil.
00:32:55.200 Oh, shit.
00:32:56.120 Nancy Pelosi is worth $210 million, but there's a guy in the park and he mumbles the N-word
00:33:01.800 when he watches TV in his shitty house.
00:33:04.000 It's like, what are we talking about?
00:33:05.860 Yeah.
00:33:06.400 All these politicians, Gavin Newsom, Gascon, Nancy Pelosi, Andrew Cuomo, they're all worse
00:33:13.460 than this country's Nazis.
00:33:14.740 Whatever Nazis there are, these people have no power.
00:33:17.660 They're in a crappy house.
00:33:18.980 They're missing teeth.
00:33:20.080 If it's really the biggest issue and that's what it looks like, I think we have other biggest
00:33:23.980 issues.
00:33:24.580 A district attorney letting out a violent criminal is worse than anything a Nazi who I don't
00:33:30.200 even believe they were.
00:33:31.540 I thought they were actors or something.
00:33:33.120 And I bet half of them are.
00:33:34.520 Half of them are fed actors and whatever.
00:33:36.940 But so just doing one action, one swipe of the pen, one no bond, no bail reform thing.
00:33:42.840 And that's it.
00:33:44.740 Yeah.
00:33:45.200 It's over.
00:33:45.800 Exactly.
00:33:46.500 And then we have like the, there was a trucker with the Confederate flag with his face covered
00:33:51.580 and like clearly a stooge plant.
00:33:53.900 And we saw something similar with, remember Glenn Youngkin?
00:33:56.680 Yeah.
00:33:57.020 And then they had all those like white supremacists with the torches and one of them was black.
00:34:01.200 The fake khaki.
00:34:01.940 They were all Democrats.
00:34:03.200 Yeah.
00:34:03.720 What is the, imagine being like the stooge getting called for that job.
00:34:07.780 It's like, Hey, we need you guys to go to the Glenn Youngkin rally.
00:34:11.580 You gotta wear this outfit.
00:34:13.800 Hey, this doesn't feel right.
00:34:15.260 I don't know.
00:34:16.000 Should we be doing this?
00:34:16.960 Bring this tiki torch.
00:34:17.880 But I wonder, I bet the thought process for those people, I bet they're like those tiki
00:34:22.780 torch people from Charlottesville, they do support Glenn Youngkin.
00:34:26.020 So by us going, it's almost like an artistic representation of like who his supporters are.
00:34:30.640 Cause all those people with the torches are going to vote for Glenn Youngkin.
00:34:33.500 So it's almost like on us to show the tiki torch support.
00:34:37.280 Like they can like gymnastics contortionist their way into like, they can do a triple back
00:34:42.020 spring into like, this is right.
00:34:44.040 And that's why we need to express ourselves by showing Glenn Youngkin that has white supremacy
00:34:50.160 support, support, not even whites, just the white supremacy outfits for just the outfits
00:34:55.240 of those former people.
00:34:56.300 Cause all this stuff was all feds the whole time.
00:34:58.380 Charlottesville, the same thing.
00:34:59.480 It's all fed operation.
00:35:00.820 I'm convinced feds are very busy just blending in.
00:35:04.320 Yeah.
00:35:05.100 Um, guy doing the Heil with his hand up in the park.
00:35:07.760 Before we move on from the COVID or a trucker mandate freedom convoy, I saw one guy like
00:35:14.680 a beta male type who had been, uh, really mad at the honking horns and he came out and
00:35:19.680 he's like, what are you even fighting for?
00:35:22.800 And it's like very specific things, like literally just the vaccine mandate.
00:35:28.900 And that's it.
00:35:30.220 So, uh, yeah, we're sticking around.
00:35:32.100 And obviously the good bit was, uh, oh yeah, the truckers are just here for two weeks.
00:35:36.760 Yeah.
00:35:37.160 That's the best bit.
00:35:38.120 Cause use their own shit against two weeks to slow the spread of communism.
00:35:41.220 Yeah.
00:35:41.600 And then, and we might be here for two years if we have to, which would be awesome.
00:35:46.180 Yeah.
00:35:46.440 I would love to see that.
00:35:47.520 It's pretty interesting too, because people like Justin Trudeau, um, similar to Joe Biden,
00:35:53.680 pretty much anyone who becomes like the establishment Muppet, they start off like somewhat honest.
00:35:59.580 So Justin Trudeau, like there's a, check out this video.
00:36:02.200 This is Justin Trudeau a few years ago and listen to how different his tone is.
00:36:05.640 It's a country of openness, of respect, of compassion, of the rule of law, of the rights
00:36:12.720 of the individuals, of freedom, freedom from fear, freedom from crime, freedom to love who
00:36:20.360 you want and not be judged for it, freedom to do what you want with your body, with your
00:36:25.020 body.
00:36:25.640 With your body.
00:36:26.640 Yeah.
00:36:26.820 So a lot, a lot of things have changed since then.
00:36:29.180 Yeah, of course.
00:36:29.760 I guess.
00:36:30.280 And basically it's like.
00:36:31.520 Well, people with unacceptable views don't have that freedom.
00:36:34.180 Yeah, exactly.
00:36:35.160 Now it's unacceptable views.
00:36:36.800 So a person like Justin Trudeau comes into office, kind of saying the right things, talking
00:36:41.340 about freedom, personal liberties, stuff like that.
00:36:44.240 And then you kind of get let into the fold and see how things work.
00:36:47.640 And then you attach your Muppet strings.
00:36:49.580 Yeah.
00:36:50.000 Once the Muppet strings get attached.
00:36:51.720 Then you become a Muppet for George Soros and globalism.
00:36:56.380 And the same thing with Joe Biden.
00:36:57.800 Joe Biden came in as a younger person.
00:37:01.420 There's a video of him.
00:37:02.240 Check this video out.
00:37:03.260 Talking about how the elections really come down to who's counting the vote and who's
00:37:07.440 able to manipulate the machines and change the data within the machines.
00:37:11.140 We need paper ballots with a paper trail.
00:37:12.840 I want to actually have an impact.
00:37:14.020 Now, the second piece you're talking about, which is what people usually mean by election
00:37:17.460 reform, how are you going to keep it from us being able to be in a position where you
00:37:21.880 can manipulate the machines, manipulate the records?
00:37:24.220 The one way to do that is I think we should pass a federal law mandating that the same
00:37:30.360 machines with paper trails be mandatory for every federal election.
00:37:34.800 That will be a multi-billion dollar bill for the states because the states will have to
00:37:38.700 make a choice then.
00:37:39.800 They will have to make a choice whether or not they have two machines.
00:37:43.600 We can't mandate, as you know, state elections.
00:37:45.800 We can't tell the state of Delaware or Ohio or Texas what machines and what method they
00:37:51.600 use to vote in their state elections, but we can do it federally.
00:37:55.320 So in a nutshell, I think we should be mandating, mandating that we have a paper ballot with
00:38:01.360 a standardized machine, standardized requirement.
00:38:04.640 Yeah, that sounds pretty true.
00:38:05.820 Pretty accurate.
00:38:06.780 Joe, that's crazy.
00:38:07.740 And then they're probably like, oh, Joe's figuring it out.
00:38:10.840 You kind of part of like the come up is like calling out the status quo, the establishment,
00:38:15.420 standing for freedom, whatever.
00:38:17.060 And then you kind of get led into the fold.
00:38:19.460 Like, all right, Joe, you're kind of right.
00:38:20.900 We are rigging elections.
00:38:22.260 You could be vice president.
00:38:23.360 We'll make you president one day.
00:38:25.240 No more talking about that.
00:38:26.560 And then you're in on it and it's over.
00:38:28.460 Like, look how much of a drastic difference that is from him now.
00:38:31.940 And just years of being a sellout and just selling out to China.
00:38:36.460 He looks different too.
00:38:37.620 He looks really different.
00:38:38.460 Well, there was multiple bodies Joe Biden's got.
00:38:40.460 I've heard that theory.
00:38:41.440 Yeah.
00:38:41.680 He got the different earlobes, different voice, different hair, the scar on his head.
00:38:45.560 And there's multiple Muppets.
00:38:48.160 There's multiple Joe Biden Muppets.
00:38:50.480 So, yeah, that's what happens.
00:38:52.060 They use that.
00:38:52.820 And it's like people kind of remember old Biden.
00:38:55.780 They remember old Trudeau.
00:38:57.560 And they're like, oh, like, yeah, like that guy is still our guy.
00:39:01.580 Obama had the same thing too.
00:39:02.900 He's trying his best.
00:39:04.060 And it's like, no, once they get let in the club, they're using that credibility.
00:39:07.300 They built up early and then they're just selling you out forever.
00:39:10.660 Yep.
00:39:10.860 It doesn't matter what their actual beliefs are.
00:39:13.740 Yeah.
00:39:13.940 So we can move on.
00:39:15.980 But we have a couple of cringe of the weeks this week.
00:39:18.520 It's a fantastic cringe of the week.
00:39:21.700 The first one is from Georgetown Law School, one of the most prestigious law schools in the
00:39:27.280 country.
00:39:27.660 I'm sure.
00:39:28.140 Definitely.
00:39:28.660 Very prestigious.
00:39:29.480 And this professor had to assure the students that there would be crying spaces available
00:39:42.160 because I think one of the professors tweeted something that some of the kids didn't like.
00:39:46.140 Yeah.
00:39:46.380 They're having kind of like a discussion where the dean of students is there watching them
00:39:49.860 have this discussion.
00:39:50.620 And he's like, let me step in for this.
00:39:52.820 And here's the message.
00:39:53.860 It's really hard to walk out, Kerry.
00:39:56.740 It is really, really hard to walk out of class or in tears.
00:40:01.240 And you should always have a place on campus where you can go out and feel like you're not
00:40:06.720 then also under people's eyes and observation if you don't want to answer a question of what's
00:40:12.240 going on or what's wrong.
00:40:14.300 And if you're finding that you're not getting the person you want to talk to or not getting
00:40:18.700 a space that you need, reach out to me anytime, anytime.
00:40:24.080 And we will find you space and we will find you the right spot.
00:40:28.520 Yeah, I have a space where you can cry now.
00:40:31.560 Yeah.
00:40:32.060 The guy with the mask that you can't even see his face is telling you about how good you
00:40:37.100 can cry still.
00:40:38.200 And you could be a lawyer.
00:40:39.140 You're going to be a lawyer soon from one of the best law schools in the country.
00:40:42.400 And you're worried about a place where you can cry.
00:40:45.000 Yeah, Georgetown law, which feeds into, like, obviously the Supreme Court, the DC Court
00:40:51.800 of Appeals, all these kind of clerk jobs.
00:40:54.380 A lot of them come from Georgetown because it's in town, you know?
00:40:57.460 Yeah.
00:40:57.700 So, like, these are the prosecutors and the people who are about to let the Asian hate
00:41:01.060 crime guy go.
00:41:02.220 Yeah.
00:41:02.520 They're worried about crying.
00:41:03.860 It's like you're crying in class.
00:41:05.460 Did your parents die?
00:41:06.780 And you just found out in class and now you're here to, you're going to cry.
00:41:10.280 And that, that would be the only times I can.
00:41:13.240 You're crying over made up shit.
00:41:14.660 Yeah.
00:41:15.120 The only times it's really okay to cry are the end of Rudy.
00:41:19.960 Not even then for me.
00:41:21.120 That, that's below my line.
00:41:22.220 And then Alan Jackson.
00:41:23.820 Remember when?
00:41:25.140 World War II shit.
00:41:26.440 World War II shit.
00:41:27.560 Where a guy is telling you how he had to leave his brothers behind or he had to step up
00:41:31.560 and it should have been me taking that bullet.
00:41:34.020 Hmm.
00:41:34.980 Remember in Rudy at the end when he goes in and makes the play?
00:41:38.180 Yeah.
00:41:38.340 I don't cry for that shit.
00:41:39.820 They didn't even block him.
00:41:41.240 I know.
00:41:42.260 Because I remember I played it back in my head.
00:41:43.980 They were loafing.
00:41:44.900 He just like blew off the line and there, and I don't think anyone even touched him.
00:41:49.160 He just tackled the quarterback.
00:41:50.260 It was super easy.
00:41:51.160 Yeah.
00:41:52.620 Plot, plot hole.
00:41:53.740 I'm very grateful that I was raised tough.
00:41:57.020 Yeah.
00:41:57.420 I was raised tough.
00:41:58.640 My, my dad was tough.
00:42:00.960 And if I was playing sports and I got banged up, there was a difference between, are you
00:42:05.620 hurt or are you injured?
00:42:07.120 If you're injured, come out, you're injured.
00:42:09.720 If you're hurt, you got to keep playing.
00:42:12.080 Suck it up.
00:42:12.760 It's a, you got a bad bruise.
00:42:14.300 You got a bad bruise.
00:42:15.720 So there were many times where I was actually probably playing through injuries even then,
00:42:21.180 but that's how tough I was.
00:42:22.680 Concussion.
00:42:23.240 Keep going.
00:42:24.320 Blowing out knees.
00:42:25.280 That's bad advice.
00:42:26.380 Keep going.
00:42:28.040 Oh man.
00:42:28.740 Maybe that's the downside of it.
00:42:30.040 That's why the brain doesn't go good anymore.
00:42:31.460 So, all right.
00:42:32.440 Yeah.
00:42:32.920 And you're getting too off base right now.
00:42:34.340 We're supposed to talk about Georgetown.
00:42:35.600 You're talking about getting your head blown out.
00:42:37.600 Um, all right.
00:42:38.900 But so, uh, I looked up Georgetown.
00:42:41.520 I'm like, dude, Georgetown, great school, lots of noble history and stuff.
00:42:45.000 I was like, what, what do you think happened to the students that maybe someone would cry
00:42:48.960 about?
00:42:49.500 And then I found, I found this section on Wikipedia, the post civil war expansion, the
00:42:54.400 U S civil war greatly affected Georgetown as a hundred as 1141 students and alumni enlisted
00:42:59.940 in one army or the other.
00:43:01.380 So they're fighting on both sides of this thing.
00:43:03.920 Cause they're in Virginia or, uh, on the Potomac.
00:43:07.100 Yeah, whatever.
00:43:08.480 Um, and so due to the number of lives lost in the war, enrollment levels remained low
00:43:13.720 until well after the wall war, only seven students graduated in 1869 down from over 300
00:43:19.160 in the previous decade.
00:43:20.760 So Georgetown had straight up the civil war and now you're trying to find a room that
00:43:29.200 you can safely cry in.
00:43:30.280 Yeah.
00:43:30.720 Now you got to cry in a room because the, one of the professors tweeted something.
00:43:34.760 Crying is fine, but now you need to cry.
00:43:37.100 Privately and in a pristine space, in a nice space, scream, cry into your pillow until
00:43:41.740 you fall asleep like everyone else.
00:43:43.780 It's like, don't we have fricking like school counselors?
00:43:48.480 Haven't we had that since every school has been around basically since the fifties or something?
00:43:53.240 These people are going to become judges, lawyers, DAs.
00:43:58.540 And it's, it's like a whole new trends, a whole new type of person.
00:44:02.920 Look at this interaction between a potential judge and Ted Cruz.
00:44:07.780 He asked her very specifically, very, very easy question.
00:44:12.420 Do you think racial discrimination is bad?
00:44:15.600 That's what she says.
00:44:16.940 Judge Cotto, I want to start with you.
00:44:19.760 Is racial discrimination wrong?
00:44:27.640 Senator, our constitution prohibits race discrimination, discrimination on the basis of race.
00:44:34.560 Okay, let me ask again, is racial discrimination wrong?
00:44:39.880 Senator, as a judge, I don't deal with issues of morality or whether something...
00:44:46.960 So you have no views on whether it's right or wrong?
00:44:49.600 Senator, because that is an issue that is frequently litigated before the courts,
00:44:55.280 pursuant to Canon 3 of the Code of Conduct.
00:44:57.680 Okay, so why does the constitution prohibit racial discrimination?
00:45:03.100 Senator, I think it's part of our constitution and this nation's history of aiming for equal justice
00:45:14.180 and treating people, regardless of any protected class status, equally and fairly.
00:45:22.360 So discriminating based on race violates, I think you just said, our constitution's history of aiming for justice.
00:45:29.760 Is that a fair characterization?
00:45:33.440 Senator, our case law, if you're talking about race discrimination under the law,
00:45:40.280 yes, pursuant to Supreme Court precedent, race discrimination under the law is prohibited.
00:45:48.680 You can answer the question?
00:45:50.600 I feel like no one answers the question anymore.
00:45:53.880 You ask a question in all these hearings, and no one answers the question.
00:45:58.500 Senator.
00:45:59.560 Yeah.
00:46:00.140 Senator, that's going to help you just not answer the question.
00:46:03.300 And then you give some thing, according to blah, blah, blah.
00:46:05.620 Just say yes.
00:46:07.020 No one can answer the question.
00:46:08.500 You can't pin anyone down on yes or no anymore.
00:46:11.800 Is peanut butter and jelly good?
00:46:13.900 Senator, I just...
00:46:15.380 The case might come up on peanut butter versus jelly.
00:46:17.940 Many different sandwiches, and historically, we've tended to...
00:46:22.640 It's good.
00:46:24.220 It's a PB&J.
00:46:25.520 It's fucking good, lady.
00:46:26.620 It's good.
00:46:27.440 Like, we can't just answer questions anymore.
00:46:29.760 It's interesting, too, because these schools are getting now so out of whack that I kind
00:46:33.640 of wish some of these things were implemented when I was in college.
00:46:37.480 I graduated college in 2012 with Richard Rappaway.
00:46:39.960 Yeah.
00:46:40.140 And back then, they used to always be like, yo, you need to talk more.
00:46:45.380 You don't say anything in class.
00:46:46.380 Sit in the front row.
00:46:47.120 Sit in the front row.
00:46:48.100 They'd call on me and make me say stuff, and I didn't know anything because I didn't
00:46:51.780 do the homework or do the reading or buy the books.
00:46:54.560 And I would always just talk to the professors and be like, hey, I'm a football player, and
00:46:58.480 I feel so stupid compared to all these other kids.
00:47:00.680 I'm kind of embarrassed.
00:47:03.080 That's a real...
00:47:03.880 You humiliated yourself.
00:47:05.060 Yeah, I humiliated myself, but then the lady was like, she'd always be like, you're trying
00:47:09.480 your best, and I'd be like, yeah, you know how these smart these other kids are, and I'm
00:47:14.480 just some dumb football player.
00:47:16.720 So every teacher felt bad for me, and there was times, too, where it's like, there was
00:47:20.060 one time I was taking a test, and I had no idea what was on it.
00:47:24.040 I was going through it, and I couldn't answer the questions.
00:47:26.940 I just brought my test to the front and told the teacher, and I was just like, hey, can I
00:47:30.420 take this tomorrow?
00:47:31.280 I have some stuff going on.
00:47:33.240 And she's like, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:47:35.060 I just gave it up.
00:47:36.580 That was when it started seeping in.
00:47:38.360 That was when it started getting weak.
00:47:39.400 That's when it started seeping in.
00:47:40.600 And look at what happened.
00:47:41.800 You, a person who was just unprepared for the test, took advantage of it.
00:47:45.860 Yep.
00:47:46.200 So all these situations are creating opportunities to take advantage of someone's kindness or
00:47:50.620 sympathy.
00:47:51.120 Yeah, it's meant to protect people.
00:47:52.300 My grandpa probably died four times in college.
00:47:54.340 Yeah.
00:47:54.860 Just to get me out of classes.
00:47:56.060 Mm-hmm.
00:47:57.300 That's so true.
00:47:58.180 Kind of fucked up, but...
00:47:59.320 Mm-hmm.
00:47:59.740 You know what I'm saying?
00:48:00.340 I'm like, people obviously lie and bend the rules and whatever, and it's like, I need to cry
00:48:04.280 in a safe room.
00:48:05.740 And because I didn't have a room, now I can't take the test.
00:48:08.320 And it's like, it starts because some people are going through some stuff and you want to
00:48:11.980 protect them, but then it lets in the dregs of the universe who take advantage, like me.
00:48:17.400 Yeah.
00:48:17.580 And it's gotten to the point now, check this out.
00:48:20.680 This was a post on a sociology class's Facebook in, I think, Binghamton or something.
00:48:27.340 Yeah, Binghamton University class of 2023.
00:48:28.800 This is what they're saying.
00:48:29.960 So it says, we, this was sent to students in a sociology class.
00:48:33.660 We practice progressive stacking when calling on people to participate in class discussion.
00:48:37.800 This means that we try to give priority to non-white folks.
00:48:40.700 They love the word folks, uh, to women and to shy and quiet people who rarely raise their
00:48:46.460 hands.
00:48:46.780 It also means that if you're a white male or someone privileged by the racial and gender
00:48:50.000 structures of our society to have your voice easily voiced and heard, we will often ask
00:48:54.160 you to hold off on your questions or comments to give others priority.
00:48:56.700 And we'll come back to you a little later or another time.
00:48:59.660 Our experience with this practice is what is that within little time, those who feel most
00:49:03.640 privileged to speak, begin to take the initiative to hold space for others who feel less
00:49:07.820 comfortable speaking first, hold space here, here, have it.
00:49:11.940 You can, you can hold the bag of getting called on and not knowing what you're talking about.
00:49:16.120 I wish I had that in college.
00:49:17.840 I used to call him one of my classes, hiding 46, where it was basically like, I was in the
00:49:22.220 class too.
00:49:22.760 You were in it.
00:49:23.220 It was like a comparative literature class that you compare like two books.
00:49:25.980 I didn't read either book.
00:49:27.140 And the professor would be like, who can tell me from last night?
00:49:30.680 And then as soon as I hear like a question gets stated, like who can tell me, I'd start
00:49:35.620 looking down with a very busy face and start writing down, like who can tell me.
00:49:40.020 And then like, I'd like be really with a busy face, like really trying.
00:49:43.660 And then he wouldn't call on me because when you ask a question, you look up, you kind of
00:49:47.540 need eye contact to call on someone.
00:49:49.560 It's like, who can tell me?
00:49:50.940 It's like, whoever's going to be the sucker who's like eye to eye with the professor,
00:49:53.880 you, Michael, like now you're screwed.
00:49:56.180 I'm too busy.
00:49:57.160 I'm writing down the thing.
00:49:58.280 And if you look through my notebooks, it's just like half of half questions.
00:50:01.860 Nothing's written down.
00:50:02.880 Like you go through, it's like this guy doesn't know anything.
00:50:04.960 I remember we had a project in that class and I was the only one who read and we had
00:50:09.580 to present to class and I was the only one who read the source material that we had to.
00:50:13.780 So we faked it the whole time and he showed up in like a, a shirt and tie and I was like,
00:50:19.600 you know, in a sweatshirt, like, you know, a football clothes type thing.
00:50:23.480 And he showed up looking nice, but not having read the thing.
00:50:26.940 I didn't do any of the reading.
00:50:28.460 And I remember you said something like, come on guys, who's, who's, who's going to participate?
00:50:32.360 Like something like that.
00:50:33.380 Yeah.
00:50:33.560 I remember exactly.
00:50:34.680 So I didn't do any of the reading.
00:50:36.100 I know what we're talking about.
00:50:37.020 We were presenting in front of the whole class.
00:50:38.780 Richard Rappaway, I knew kind of did the work.
00:50:40.580 I wore a suit.
00:50:42.040 So the guy was wearing like a jacket tie, like looking nice.
00:50:45.120 So the guy's like, Oh, this guy's taking it seriously.
00:50:47.480 I didn't do any of the work.
00:50:48.800 I had no idea what it was about.
00:50:50.180 And I remember I was like, all right guys, for today's presentation, I thought it'd be good
00:50:54.520 to do more of a discussion.
00:50:55.700 Where I completely like changed the assignment.
00:50:58.700 And I was like asking the class questions.
00:51:00.740 Like who can tell me the difference between blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:51:04.160 Who can tell me about the evolution of the main character?
00:51:07.220 Like very vague questions.
00:51:08.340 Like spark notes shit that he's writing.
00:51:09.980 And then there was one part where like no one answered.
00:51:13.520 Like who can tell me about how this character developed between, you know, into act three.
00:51:17.000 And then no one answered.
00:51:18.220 The class was quiet.
00:51:19.000 And it was almost like back on me to answer.
00:51:20.980 And I was like, come on guys.
00:51:22.500 It's going to be a lot easier if everyone starts participating.
00:51:26.040 Complete psycho.
00:51:27.240 You're Dexter denying the murders.
00:51:29.120 Yeah.
00:51:29.660 Come on guys.
00:51:30.700 Come on guys.
00:51:31.540 We're serious here.
00:51:32.360 You guys, come on.
00:51:34.080 It'll go a lot smoother if we all just started, you know, participating.
00:51:36.860 I also remember not to be too long on this, but I don't think this was you, but it was
00:51:42.320 somebody else in the class who actually failed the class.
00:51:44.820 We all got away with it.
00:51:45.920 Yeah.
00:51:46.260 We all got away with it.
00:51:47.020 It was another friend of ours.
00:51:48.260 I think I got like an A minus or a B plus.
00:51:50.160 I got like a B something.
00:51:52.800 And we had a friend in the class who failed and he was walking.
00:51:59.660 Basically the jig was up and the professor was like going one by one seeing who had done.
00:52:04.280 And he had a moment where he realized, wait a sec.
00:52:06.120 Like none of these kids know anything.
00:52:07.940 None of these people read the homework.
00:52:10.020 And it was like a reading thing that we had to download.
00:52:13.800 It was like a long PDF that we had to download off, you know, whatever university web thing.
00:52:19.840 And one of the kids who we know his excuse was, oh yeah, I couldn't get the video to work.
00:52:27.260 And it was like a written thing.
00:52:29.060 It was not even a video.
00:52:30.380 It was a written PDF thing you read.
00:52:32.320 And he goes, oh, I couldn't get the video to load.
00:52:34.580 And the professor said it was a written assignment.
00:52:38.580 And then the professor asked me, Austin, are you prepared?
00:52:42.520 And I just said, I had a similar issue.
00:52:45.800 I had a similar issue.
00:52:47.420 I couldn't get the fake video to load either.
00:52:49.540 Man, that poor teacher had no idea what was happening to him.
00:52:52.180 And I learned so much.
00:52:53.880 It's like I probably could have done the reading for like 45 minutes.
00:52:57.080 And I kind of got in the gist of it and then did it.
00:53:00.040 100%.
00:53:00.320 And instead of doing that, I wore a suit and just like I jumped.
00:53:04.160 I was in the belly of the beast.
00:53:05.600 Yeah.
00:53:06.040 That's like mad man.
00:53:07.060 You were in the whale.
00:53:07.620 You were flicked the lighter on and you're like, oh God.
00:53:10.220 That's like real mad man shit.
00:53:11.920 Yeah.
00:53:12.120 Whereas instead of just preparing and doing like an okay job, I do no preparation.
00:53:16.320 Come over the top.
00:53:17.240 Act like I'm the most prepared.
00:53:18.820 Yep.
00:53:19.400 And then it's like I get off on that.
00:53:21.040 I get squirts from that.
00:53:22.200 Yeah.
00:53:22.460 Because then after I walk out and it's like, woo, baby, no one knew, no one knew.
00:53:28.560 It's like a heist.
00:53:29.540 It's like you taking your mask off right after the heist, getting in the car like, woo, $40 million, boys.
00:53:35.080 We did it.
00:53:35.900 Like exactly.
00:53:36.740 And I don't know.
00:53:37.320 That I think character development wise for me, that went a longer way than reading some Huckleberry Finn or Peter Pan or whatever.
00:53:46.700 Yeah.
00:53:47.660 Yeah.

00:54:19.060 Let's just, let's just play it.
00:54:22.000 We should say.
00:54:26.140 Abortion calls are upper.
00:54:29.300 My birthday, I've got my birthday.
00:54:33.000 I'm sorry.
00:54:35.140 I'm looking at my comment saying that I saw.
00:54:38.400 Look at my nails.
00:54:40.300 Does that mean you're...
00:54:41.460 So I recently told my parents that I made it.
00:54:45.820 Maybe a little bit romantically interested in women.
00:54:49.440 And the parents probably like...
00:54:50.040 And that was a big shock for them considering the past 10 years of coming out as gay, then queer, then non-binary, then trans.
00:54:57.580 And I think it was just a bit of a shock.
00:54:59.620 So I tell my dad and he goes, well, I would love to see you get a woman pregnant.
00:55:04.340 And I said, oh, no, no, no.
00:55:06.220 She would be getting me pregnant.
00:55:08.240 And then he said, what, do you have a vagina now?
00:55:10.320 And I said, never say never.
00:55:12.520 And then I tell my mom and she goes, I would just love to see you own property one day.
00:55:17.840 And in California, that's sort of, you know, a parent's dream.
00:55:21.200 It's not having kids or getting married.
00:55:24.000 It's, it's, are you able to own a house?
00:55:26.740 Wouldn't that be nice?
00:55:27.640 So yeah, just like, please...
00:55:28.520 Parents have very reasonable goals.
00:55:30.020 Please just be, just please be normal.
00:55:33.740 Like, can you, you want to maybe buy a house?
00:55:35.660 Oh, you're like, girl's going to get a girl pregnant?
00:55:38.060 No, I'm getting pregnant.
00:55:40.300 Oh.
00:55:41.020 These people, these people are sick.
00:55:43.140 They look, they want to just troll their boomer-ish, you know, not boomer, but...
00:55:47.680 Basically, you know, 55, well, this guy's probably 30.
00:55:51.400 He's got a 55 to 60-year-old nice parents who they thought they were doing the American
00:55:56.060 dream by having a kid.
00:55:57.220 It comes out as this, and he just trolls you about having a vagina and never say never.
00:56:01.160 Maybe someone can...
00:56:02.560 Impregnate him.
00:56:03.780 Impregnate me.
00:56:04.240 I was going to use cruder words, but man.
00:56:06.640 It's like the dad's like, oh, you're thinking about, you're liking girls?
00:56:09.080 You're going to have a kid?
00:56:10.140 It's like, no, dad, I'm going to try and get pregnant.
00:56:12.680 It's like, you almost, you gave me some hope.
00:56:16.980 So, that's honestly really sad.
00:56:18.480 Like, imagine, like, teasing or toying with your parents and being like, you know, hey,
00:56:23.900 the thing you really hoped for could happen.
00:56:26.780 Psyche, I'm a fucking loser.
00:56:29.080 Oh, so true.
00:56:30.320 So, yeah.
00:56:30.940 Well, not us.
00:56:32.680 This guy's going to be renting forever, it sounds like.
00:56:35.020 Renting and trying to get pregnant forever.
00:56:37.940 Well, I wish him the best.
00:56:39.360 It's not impossible.
00:56:40.600 I don't really wish this guy the best.
00:56:42.100 I hope this guy stays away from the children.
00:56:43.880 Me too.
00:56:44.780 Yeah.
00:56:45.140 This is the kind of person who really wants to talk to kids about stuff.
00:56:48.960 Doesn't this guy have a kindergarten to get back to?
00:56:51.260 Yeah.
00:56:52.280 You're reusing bets now?
00:56:53.600 Mm-hmm.
