00:02:49.000First of all, there's a curfew at nine, but then they have to be escorted home by a man because they will get carjacked if they're not.
00:02:56.000One of my secret long-term bucket list plans is to do a documentary about Jamaican English, Jamaican patois, and Glaswegian, and maybe Puerto Rican Spanish.
00:03:09.000Because they're all so far from their original language.
00:07:40.000Yeah, I'm trying to get the last name, but definitely Junior.
00:07:42.000Yeah, Junior Johnson, until you get the right name.
00:07:45.000So he's sitting on this flight, and he gets drunk, and this dude, I'm going to say Junior, they're talking shit, and he's getting wasted, and he's almost puking.
00:07:54.000And he goes, yeah, I'm kind of a badass.
00:08:12.000Like, they used to call, before they had dance hall, the name for these guys was like the Upman or something.
00:08:19.000The half-step up, I forget what it is, but it was their job was to go to a party and talk everyone up, to bluff, to say, this is the fucking most rocking party ever.
00:09:07.000And so they start pushing this and they start wearing a wire because this guy, Junior Johnson, is a drug dealer who got caught by the government, then started working with not just the Jamaican authorities, but with the FBI and the CIA as a CI, as a confidential informant.
00:11:47.000I think there's some homosexual in law enforcement, the top brass, the CI FBI, that had it out for Buju because of that song he recorded as a kid.
00:11:56.000And it's always been, we need to get that son of a bitch.
00:11:59.000Like, I don't even think it's a coincidence that Junior Johnson was sitting in that seat, that first-class seat, and telling him, plying him with booze, telling him red wine is for real men, which is not true.
00:12:10.000You're thinking of Bourbon, Jr., or maybe Bud.
00:12:54.000I told you in advance just to power through the letters, to be a letter slave, and only comment for 30 seconds because I was mad that you did 15 minutes of that song.
00:17:47.000There are two kinds of people in this world.
00:17:48.000Those who think the Irishman, the Martin Scarcesi directed El Pacino, blah, blah, blah, a mega mob opera released last week is the finest piece of cinema produced in this century, maybe of all time.
00:17:57.000And then there are people like me who think the movie weighing in in an obscene 209 minutes, every one of them boring, ill-acted, poorly written.
00:19:22.000And when you watch him in that movie 101 Ways to Die in the West, he has the exact same problem.
00:19:30.000Look up that movie, Seth McFarlane, 101 Ways to Die in the West, because he's got so much filler in his cheeks and forehead that, like, this is him scared.
00:29:57.000He's proving writers, filmmakers, comedians, and musicians don't need Hollywood anymore, that it was always Hollywood that needed us.
00:30:05.000I thought that was an interesting take because really the purge, the conservative purge, and we're not just saying this with YouTube, is about Trump supporters who are charming or have influence.
00:30:16.000Richard Spencer, David Duke, not a problem.
00:30:19.000But anyone like Proud Boys who makes it look fun to be patriotic, the globalists can't have that because that's nationalism and nationalism is the opposite of globalism.
00:30:31.000By the way, that dude I was making fun of yesterday, the Mexican guy, he emailed me again.
00:30:35.000He goes, you stupid idiot, you didn't get it.
00:30:38.000In my letter, I said that illegals would be better off here than they are in Mexico, and you didn't argue against that.
00:31:19.000We could assume that we're giving a lot of ex-cartel murderers a second chance by coming here and welcoming them into, but we wouldn't have that same empathy for our prisoners or anything.
00:32:50.000All right, speaking of logic, if you recall, 90 Day Fiancé had, I'm going to say, the most pathetic human being I've ever come across in my life.
00:33:01.000And it was a big hit with the viewers at home.
00:33:04.000It made our great episode that was the Monday app that was so good it made Tuesday suck.
00:33:09.000And so I want to bring back the wonderment that was Monday's show by dipping our toes back into the Caesar pool.
00:33:16.000Now, what I didn't know is this is ancient news, and there's tons and tons of footage out there about Caesar, including Maria talking about denying that she's received 40 grand, her defending herself, which I'm on board with, saying, whatever, I'm not married.
00:33:34.000And his boss loaning him money so he can take her to Mexico and make her wear edible panties while they drink champagne and he beats her with a whip.
00:34:52.000You know, he could have such a great life with some girl in his league that's like his age, doing nails, just going out for beers, keeping all his money.
00:35:25.000Of course, soon I'll be living, I'll have a whole chain of these and I'll be living in the burbs, you know, elevating myself, moving up the ladder.
00:35:32.000You, however, are living the worst of my life right now.
00:36:28.000And it's also an integral part of our history.
00:36:29.000You know, the reason that we have America is because we would meet in these taverns and the British government said, hey, guys, learn how to use guns and start your own militias.
00:36:38.000And we'll pay you free beer at the tavern if you come to these gun lessons.
00:43:23.000He's arrived in Mexico and his life is ruined because she didn't show.
00:43:27.000But the reason, the whole reason we're doing this whole update is based on one thing, and that is that he has edible panties in his luggage.
00:43:38.000Let's start using that as an expression.
00:43:42.000It means that you're lost and you're off on a tangent.
00:43:45.000Like, dude, you got edible panties in your luggage.
00:46:37.000And even the horniest, sluttiest couples, you're probably not going to get to like edible underwear and whips.
00:46:42.000Even if you were like previously a sex worker, you're probably not going to get into that until, I don't know, the first like year of having sex three times a day.
00:46:51.000So my point here is Caesar's jumping the gun just a little bit with all of that edible gear.
00:48:32.000And also, can I just interrupt this for a second?
00:48:34.000There's a strange twist going on here because in another video we saw, he calls up to see what's going on with the ticket and they said it was insufficient funds.
00:48:44.000So I think it's possible that he's so dim-witted that he bought him and her a ticket and a hotel and it was, you know, let's say 4,500 bucks and he had $3,000 in his bank account.
00:50:17.000It's sort of like, remember that Russian chick who went to prison for hustling everyone, saying that she was a Rockefeller or something like that?
00:50:25.000And they went on these lavish trips and she would say, I'll pay half.
00:50:30.000And then they get this big fancy hotel and live like kings.
00:50:33.000She's just hanging out with the richest people in the country.
00:50:35.000And then she'd go, oh, shit, I forgot my wallet.
00:50:36.000And then they would have to pay for the hotel.
00:50:39.000And then she tried to get a loan from the bank to open a nightclub for $20 million.
00:54:49.000But when you're pushing off Tommy, who's 260 pounds, you're draining your legs, your arms, your core, everything is pushing back on this guy.
00:54:59.000So he brought my gas tank down to E. And he goes, why didn't you pivot, dumbass?
00:55:06.000Oh, you're supposed to like bullfight him?
01:02:32.000Because you're so petite, you're baby Yoda-sized, you'll be in a low-weight class, and then you've got broad shoulders and good arms, so you're kind of designed for it.
01:04:35.000Some woman got on the train and she goes, oh my God.
01:04:39.000And then she says to her woman, do you smell that?
01:04:40.000And he goes, yeah, what happens is a lot of the time rats will get caught in the sort of air ducts and then they'll die there and they rot.
01:04:48.000Again, no one knows what they're talking about.
01:04:51.000Then they'll rot in the air ducts and then that gets filtered through.
01:04:54.000Yeah, it will probably be handled, you know, at the end of the night.
01:04:56.000But until then, of course, we'll have to inhale this carcass of a dead rat.
01:06:19.000I just wanted to share this podcast with you that I just heard with the most whiny millennial Native American, in lots of quotes, trying to sabotage a podcast about a racist video game with these nerds who are totally unaware of what's happening, mostly because he's so conflict avoidant, just say chicken, that even his huge stand sounds like he's at gunpoint.
01:06:40.000You've made mentions about poor adrenaline control before, and this is a textbook case.
01:06:52.000A thing that like, it would be hard for me to be on this episode of the show without talking about something that I think is kind of an elephant in the room for me at least.
01:07:42.000About a video game where the whole point of the game is for General Custer to rape a Native American woman, and it's for the Thanksgiving episode.
01:07:49.000That's like, I'm not saying it's not as bad.
01:08:07.000Do you also hate the video game where innocent black children are lynched?
01:08:12.000Like, talk about going out on a limb here.
01:08:14.000Wow, this guy's really politically correct.
01:08:17.000Thought process in putting this episode together.
01:08:20.000I mean, you're right to call us out on it.
01:08:23.000I guess we didn't think about the tokenization of it that much.
01:08:26.000We thought of you as a gamer, and we thought of you, we figured we'd want a native perspective on something so grim and so dark.
01:08:34.000But you're right, it is fucked up to put you in that box and say like, hey, this is your responsibility to come in and talk about this fucked up thing.
01:08:43.000Yeah, and I mean, it bums me out a lot.
01:08:45.000And once again, you know, apologies for...
01:08:50.000You know, there is this thing oftentimes, especially like with natives and the entertainment industry and the comedy community, and that I'm one of very few.
01:08:58.000And it's sort of like it's tough because it kind of minimizes us into being less than what we are.
01:09:09.000Like it kind of puts me into a box of not necessarily being like a super funny comedy writer.
01:09:13.000And we had like a great conversation before this.
01:09:14.000And like, you know, you two are people that I really respect.
01:09:28.000And he's the perfect person to discuss that.
01:09:30.000He's clearly obsessed with identity politics.
01:09:33.000I've never heard of the Cowlitz tribe.
01:09:34.000I'm going to ask my wife if they're bullshit.
01:09:36.000And you're a comedy writer, so the fact that you would demand that the comedy is removed from that and you speak solemnly about a video game.
01:09:45.000Also, this is a very un-Indian thing, is to be an uptight little bitch.
01:09:59.000You know, there's so few Indian people in this milieu that for you to thrust me into one where a woman gets raped, do you think I like the fact that General Custard raped my great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great-grandmother?
01:11:52.000Well, because the Indian guy hates that Indians are called Indian because he's like, I'm a fucking Indian.
01:11:58.000And he's misdirected that resentment and directed it on First Nations people, Native Americans, people of the Clifton tribe or whatever that tribe was called.
01:12:06.000I'm not finding the Rape Haunt us album, but.
01:12:30.000The Indian guy hates it, and that's one of the reasons they broke up and Gwent's Defending Win Solo because she wanted to pursue a career in racism.
01:12:36.000And then she saw it's bad for business, so they made an album in Jamaica with that, hey, baby.
01:15:14.000Why don't we try free speech.tv, you stupid turd?
01:15:17.000Somehow I've been watching, someone I've been watching for quite a while is John Doyle, who is a young guy around 21 who has a YouTube channel called Heck Off, Commie.
01:15:43.000You hold down your windows, you turn off your music, both hands on the wheel, and it's like, yeah, it's annoying, but unless you're being pulled over on, what is it, I-80?
01:15:50.000It's a general rule, the easier you make the cop's job, the easier your life is going to be, roughly speaking.
01:21:11.000And it was this 1962, I think, Playmate cover centerfold, right?
01:21:17.000And I don't know, it's got a nice mix of browns and hues, and skin tone is a very hard thing to do because it's easy to do a blue t-shirt, but to get the nuances of skin tone and image.
01:21:26.000So nerds who do tech with images have been using this as a good baseline.
01:21:47.000And I just thought this is such a great example of the joyless, humorless, shitty, joke-killing, sex-killing, color-killing culture of the left.
01:22:30.000It demeans women and the few women that are in these really techie fields feel ostracized.
01:22:37.000I can tell you, when I see someone use Groundskeeper Willie in a graphic to help them figure out colors, I am crushed as the only Scottish person in the room.
01:22:48.000Oh my God, there she is, Queen Killjoy.
01:23:14.000Playboy and Penhouse, like Penhouse got a little raunchy, but back in the 60s, it was as beautiful as paintings in the museum and just as pornographic.
01:23:22.000Like I would want, I wouldn't, I never want any female relative of mine, my sister or my wife, to do porn, but 1962 Playboy, and my wife was like 20, I'd go, maybe, yeah.
01:25:51.000If you wear a butt plug in your boat while you're reading to children, that's your business.
01:25:54.000You can flash children your genitalia, your cock and balls while you wear a dress, but God forbid, we should have a picture of the top of a woman's butt crack.
01:26:03.000Your drag name could be Annie Christ or Lucy Fur, which are real.
01:26:08.000Yeah, Annie Christ, actual drag queen who reads to kids.
01:28:36.000I wonder why this sophomore in college who can't keep up with the rest of the class decided to outlin a lot of money to help make millions of women feel welcome.
01:31:13.000I want to go do a man on the street thing and kind of ask people, you know, everybody's got a laptop and then ask women and men, what do they do with their laptop?
01:31:21.000Like, which programs do you usually write and they read?
01:31:24.000I think that's what I'm going to get from females.
01:35:32.000Okay, so I've been talking a lot about, remember that college Republican where they took his All Lives Matter sign and he went, he starts rocking in his heels and goes, call the police.
