00:02:11.000Yeah, so Johnny Rotten came out as a Trump supporter recently, and it sort of got me in this vortex of his wife, and his daughter, and the Slits, and Viv Albertine, and Pauly Styring, and punk rock.
00:02:28.000And I want to get into that, but someone seems to have crept into the studio that was not invited.
00:06:34.000Look, I love the aesthetic of them, and punk was a lot about aesthetics, and I love the vibe, and punk was a lot about vibes, but they were garbage.
00:06:43.000I mean, they covered Heard It Through the Grapevine, which was 99% Marvin Gaye's hard work.
00:09:37.000But you'll notice with punk and all of this, uh, a lot of good art, it comes from suffering and a lot of suffering comes from not having a dad.
00:10:10.000I ran the scenario through my head a couple of times, wrote it down, never had a thought like it again.
00:10:16.000Honest, please let that old computer I wrote it on be smashed into a million pieces and not lying on its side in a landfill site somewhere, waiting to be dug up and analyzed sometime in the future like Lucy, the Australopithecus fossil.
00:10:54.000Because she lived in Shepherds Bush and Mick Jones was kind of an upper middle class Jew and he would take the train from his nice area probably, I don't know, South London to Shepherds Bush and then he'd get there and she wouldn't answer the door because she was mad at him.
00:12:10.000Although, Cyndi Lauper has had a very romantic long-term relationship with the guy who was in Time After Time and also had a successful acting career.
00:17:51.000And, you know, The Sopranos was a movie about a bad guy.
00:17:55.000But if you have any sophistication whatsoever, you go, oh, this guy's a cocksucker who lets his friends freeze to death because he's banging his goomar.
00:21:22.000I used to know a guy, Tony Barber, the guy who dumped me, Tony Buzzcock, because, um, I told him that I'd love to have him at the house, but he couldn't bring his rescue pit bulls because my son is five and right at their eye level.
00:23:00.000So, um, yeah, John Lydon has money like me, but he's genetically working class like me, and he recognizes Brexit and Trump are a working class movement, so he's on that side.
00:23:18.000And, uh, so he's been doing some press recently.
00:23:53.000at work here, but I swear the government's beginning to feel that way.
00:23:57.000Do we have to hold ourselves responsible at some point in order for a society to exist at all?
00:24:04.000Already there are rumours flying around that there's an even stronger strain of this Covid or whatever you want to call it, coming down the pipeline.
00:24:16.000So we might as well just close everything down and collapse.
00:24:23.000Live performances almost seem to be a thing... Yeah, and what bothers me quite a lot, and I don't mean to sound selfish with this, because it directly affects everybody equally, is that I can't function.
00:24:37.000Live performance was the essence of Public Image Limited and to be denied that...
00:24:43.000After Vice, I was determined never to be known as the Vice guy for the rest of my life.
00:24:48.000And I was envious of John Rotten, who became John Lydon.
00:25:20.000If we can't work, well, us working class are going to get up and do something about that at some point.
00:25:27.000It seems to me that what the Democrats here in America are promising will be tax hikes beyond belief, more lockdowns, more confusion, more bureaucracy and less answers.
00:25:43.000You're thinking of voting Republican or not at all?
00:26:35.000I can only go on my vast experience seeing as my wife is suffering from Alzheimer's.
00:26:41.000Like you say, you look after your wife, you're at home, and I guess, in a sense, a carer as well.
00:26:47.000I mean, this whole COVID thing has thrown a spotlight, I guess, on the role of carers in society.
00:26:54.000I wonder, you know, whether that's in care homes or at home, I wonder what's your view on that?
00:26:59.000No, I have a very serious viewpoint on that, and I could never consider putting my lovely wife in a home, at least not at this point, until
00:27:10.000Became absolutely like the only alternative.
00:27:14.000But now, looking at what's been going on and the way COVID patients have been pumped and channelled into the old folks' home, it's almost like those places have become death camps, not caring centres.
00:28:30.000It's deeply frustrating for her because she loves to talk, she loves to read, loves watching the news programs because she can read the ticker tapes across the bottom.
00:30:33.000Ariana didn't need to die and that's a very, very tough burden on her mother to know that.
00:30:45.000She knew she had cancer and she deliberately ignored it and went for lunatic left-wing crackpot theories.
00:30:53.000And that will kill you stone dead every single time.
00:30:59.000That's Johnny Rotten with, wait, go to that other picture.
00:31:03.000That's him with Nora, his wife, before they were husband and wife, when she was just a promoter, and they all treated her like, this was the thing about punk rock, there was no black, white, you know, you treated chicks like fellow dudes.
00:31:18.000You'd punch them and give them a purple nurple if they farted and didn't save safety.
00:35:34.000And here's another thing, like, she's half Ethiopian.
00:35:37.000Back in 79, when they were big, no one talked about her as a black punk vocalist.
00:35:43.000No one had any idea what her race was.
00:35:46.000They were just like, that's X-Ray Specs.
00:35:50.000And they just now in retrospect, they talk about blacks and punk and how black polystyrene was and people of color and punk and, ugh, so sick of you fucking not only ruining 2020 with your racial identity politics, but also going back in time and fucking everything up.
00:36:09.000I watched the Gremlins and then Wayne's World on airheads.
00:36:13.000And the black guy is the doctor in Gremlins.
00:37:17.000And that's ignoring a million, like, I'll knock the chocolate out of you.
00:37:21.000And you're the only fucking black guy here right now, or you're the only white guy here right now, or you're a fucking white cupcake.
00:37:29.000By the way, if black people call you a cupcake at the gym, mention that, yeah, I'm the mayor of Cupcakeville and, uh, you eat me, you're going to get diabetes and die.
00:38:49.000We've got John Kinsman's drawings he did in prison, and we have Brian John Spencer's watercolor of me and Ryan as Melania and Baron and Trump.
