00:00:30.000
his facial features, we're here to turn atheists into believers, I'm just trying to say the way school need teasers, the way Katharine needed reasons, that's the way I need Jesus, so here go my single dog, Radionesus, they say you can rap about anything except for Jesus, that means gun, sex, lies, videotapes, but if I talk about God, my record won't get played, ha ha ha.
00:00:51.060
Hello and welcome to Misunderstood, a show for all you culturally and politically misunderstood ladies and gents, we are your hosts, I'm Kath, and I'm Nat, and today we're going to be doing a deep dive into Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's relationship, formerly Kimye, we're going to be talking about surrogacy and some of the ethics behind it, and then of course we're going to talk about our favorite trans swimmer
00:01:21.040
Leah Thomas, but first we're going to start things off with our patented culture shock moment of the week, take it away Kat, so this is happy never wearing a mask day again, right, the culture shock today is, we get to look at your beautiful faces in public in Ontario, this is a huge milestone for us, I have been not wearing a mask for a long time, but I'm really excited for others to join in in the fun,
00:01:48.260
yeah, I'm excited about it, except I've seen a lot of masks, I was just going to say, I went for a run at like 7am this morning, wow, what a humble brag, and I'm super fit, no, but actually so many people were outside, not just wearing a single mask, a double one, stop it, a double mask, and I think we should pray for these people, because the fact that they are still scared two years in is just, it's sad, it actually makes me sad, it makes me sad,
00:02:14.420
I suggest people be the maskless face they want to see in the world, I think that's beautiful, thank you, it's almost as if you were listening to some Kanye West earlier,
00:02:23.860
he also writes beautiful music, but he has had a sad, beautiful, tragic relationship with ex-wife Kim Kardashian, it is, and even though they have, they butt heads,
00:02:34.140
I think they're more connected than they give themselves, than they admit, rather, so we're going to go through a timeline of their relationship and do a deep dive into Kim and Kanye,
00:02:45.780
who, as we've mentioned on the show before, are the former first family of the United States of America, with respect, with respect, with respect, yes, so where should we begin?
00:02:54.000
Well, let's start at the very top, so we have devised a little timeline here, the two met in the year 2000, when Kim Kardashian was an assistant to singer Brandi,
00:03:06.420
Interesting, I did not know that, I didn't know that either, Kanye apparently was super taken by her, I mean, have you seen 2020, sorry, 2002 Kim, when she had her original body parts and face,
00:03:17.120
In her normal, yeah, when she looked like a human, yeah, she was beautiful, that's interesting too, because I started watching Keeping Up with the Kardashians at the onset of the pandemic,
00:03:26.580
and when you see them around this time, they have all this money, but they don't know, they don't have taste, they have no taste, so when you see, like, you really slowly see the transition when Kim and Kanye meet,
00:03:37.900
just how cool she becomes, and how, like, trendy and fashionable, it's hilarious, so thank you, that's a good point,
00:03:43.800
Thank you, Kanye, yeah, she does make a mention about, um, yes, when they started dating was, well, we'll get to that, we'll get to that, but she says something about how he always really respected his fashion choice and taste and whatever,
00:03:53.540
so she was probably dating up in the style department, yeah, I mean, and good call, girl, because it worked out for you, you look amazing,
00:03:59.880
so they dated other people, um, but remained friends, Kim Kardashian actually got married to that guy, basketball player, yeah, for, like, 72 days or something, yeah, Chris Humphreys, yes, apparently, though,
00:04:10.240
she said part of why that marriage didn't work out was because she was already texting Kanye, oh, my gosh, he was sliding into her DMs, like,
00:04:17.280
well, he had wanted her the whole, he had wanted her, I think, since they met, um, but they dated,
00:04:23.200
but he was respectful, yes, and Kanye actually mentioned it in a couple lyrics of a song, like, when she was married to Chris, is that his name,
00:04:29.320
yep, he wrote a lyric that was, like, go on, girl, do your thing, like, I'll be waiting, something or other, so,
00:04:34.700
weird to note that Chris is her mom's name, oh, yeah, I'm sorry, you just, like, here, you say that, I was, like,
00:04:41.260
that's, like, they're spelt the same, too, that's kind of, like, Michaela Peterson, she's engaged now to someone named Jordan,
00:04:46.120
Michaela Peterson, no, just, narcissist, no, her, her fiance's name is Jordan, that's creepy, super creepy, I don't know, it's a little creepy, anyway, sorry,
00:04:54.120
whatever, we'll move on from that, um, so, they, uh, started dating in 2012, and had their first child north in 2013, right,
00:05:02.620
that was an unexpected pregnancy, um, Kanye West has gone on the record as talking about how they
00:05:08.660
discussed abortion, and it was actually Kim who pushed to have the baby, and he says now, of course,
00:05:14.000
he's, like, so great, yes, he's super pro-life, and he's, like, so grateful, she was mortified at this,
00:05:18.360
uh, revelation, I'm sure it's kind of hard for the kid to hear that, like, for North to be, like, oh,
00:05:23.000
and also, it's just, I mean, it's kind of private, it's nobody's business, yeah, regardless of what you
00:05:27.540
think about abortion, like, it's, it's someone's private decision, and he should not be speaking
00:05:32.820
out about that on her behalf, I just, it's, it sounds like he didn't consult her, it was when he
00:05:37.140
was, had a brief presidential run, which we forgot about until I started doing the research for this
00:05:42.440
episode, I remember I saw a tweet about that, and he, he tweeted, like, he got, like, a, he got a decent
00:05:47.740
amount of votes, but what, like, he didn't get a vote from his own wife, and that, that stung, that hurts,
00:05:52.980
right, so, she voted for Trump, just kidding, I don't know, um, so they got married in 2014,
00:05:58.240
and it's kind of funny, because I was reading about this, and they, they landed a cover in Vogue,
00:06:02.720
and I guess she had been, she'd never been on Vogue before, so he was the one that got her on the
00:06:08.620
cover, basically, oh my god, and now she, like, is Vogue, she is Vogue, so thanks, Kanye, like,
00:06:13.420
I mean, he's really helped her build her empire, yeah, yeah, I didn't realize that, um, they had their
00:06:18.680
second child in 2015, yeah, that one was a hard pregnancy for Kim, um, and I remember, I remember
00:06:24.860
seeing pictures, pictures of her, she was real, she was in rough shape, but she went through, like,
00:06:29.780
I'm pretty impressed that she, A, decided to keep her first kid, which is, you know, I would
00:06:34.320
encourage, yeah, uh, and then, even though her pregnancy was hard, she went and had another one,
00:06:39.380
yeah, um, okay, so then, things changed a little bit, in 2017, they had their third child, but that was
00:06:45.340
by a surrogate, yes, so we're gonna talk about surrogacy later in this episode, yeah, there's a
00:06:50.880
lot, and not really about her, so not about her specifically, yes, but it's important to note, um, and
00:06:56.400
then in 2019, they had their fourth and final child, and it was also by surrogate, oh, also important to
00:07:02.000
note, 2018 was when he was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, and that's kind of when we started to see a
00:07:07.520
shift, I think, in their, their marriage, and you guys might think this is boring, but it's all relevant, we're gonna
00:07:12.260
have a juicy discussion about all of this, it's just, we're just trying to set the stage, gotta lay the land,
00:07:18.440
exactly, yeah, so, that's a good point to note, because in 2019, Kanye becomes born-again Christian, which
00:07:25.920
some people, I know that's up for debate by certain Christians, are like, no, he's not, and then some people
00:07:30.440
are like, yeah, he's always been, like, his first, since the beginning of his, Jesus walks, yeah, like, his music has
00:07:35.720
always had, like, a gospel rhythm to it, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's Christian, so there's,
00:07:40.620
you know, how, how do you look into someone's heart, and decide whether or not they love God,
00:07:44.940
like, that's not my decision, it's not, I agree with you, and, and all, so much of their relationship,
00:07:50.240
all that we know about is what we read on TMZ, like, there's so much behind the scenes, um, behind
00:07:54.320
closed doors, but I think your actions do speak louder than words, and I think some of his actions
00:07:59.040
have kind of made it seem like, oh, maybe he's not fully invested in his faith, but at the same time, too,
00:08:04.700
like, Israel, the definition of Israel means to struggle with God, which means that's a lifelong
00:08:09.520
journey, so we can't really speak to his salvation, all we can do is pray about him. Yeah, you could
00:08:13.660
say the same thing about me, you could be like, oh, like, look at these decisions she's made in her
00:08:16.620
life, that means she's not really Christian, it's like, that's fair for you to make that judgment,
00:08:20.000
but also, like, not completely accurate. It's a journey, it's a lifelong journey, it's, yeah, you, you,
00:08:25.120
you know, it's, we can't judge people with where they're at. So, 2019, they're still happily married,
00:08:29.920
um, Kim talks on The View about how, uh, Kanye was hosting street church and had all these, like,
00:08:36.620
pastors coming through, and I was like, we know something about street church pastors,
00:08:40.440
like Arthur Pawlowski. Oh, yeah. Um, then, oh, they renewed their vows in 2019, so they're still
00:08:47.360
happily married, I would assume. Yeah. Same, like, that, either that's something that you do when
00:08:51.220
you're struggling and you try to renew your faith in each other, maybe, or you're just, like, really happy
00:08:55.120
and you want to renew your vows, although it's kind of, they've only been married for five years
00:08:59.580
at that point, so it's like, that's a, that's a Hollywood marriage timeline. Yeah, and, and I
00:09:03.580
guess that's this, when he became a Christian, I don't think she kind of made that decision for
00:09:09.040
herself, so I think that's when they started to see tension in their marriage, because he had a
00:09:12.880
different view on how they should be parenting their kids, like, something about taking TVs out
00:09:16.800
of their rooms, which, by the way, they're all so young, they don't need TVs in their room. How big are
00:09:20.140
those TVs? Yeah, can I have it? You have to get it uninstalled from the wall,
00:09:23.340
daddy, like, it's built into the movie theater. Yeah. And then something about North, who I guess
00:09:29.340
was very young at the time, putting on makeup, which, I mean, we put on, I assume we put on
00:09:33.520
makeup when we were kids, but I guess he just wanted to preserve. Maybe not wearing out. Exactly,
00:09:37.800
like, I think he just wanted to preserve the fact that she is a child, which is a normal thing for
00:09:41.780
a dad to do. It's a normal response, and I think, again, we don't know what's going on behind closed
00:09:45.020
doors, but I don't, I kind of think she should be on the same page with him as a parenting choice
00:09:49.320
about that. Yeah, it's unfortunate that the whole world knows about these, like, intermarital
00:09:52.920
squabbles. Yes. It's kind of weird. Most of us would keep that private. Yeah. So, 2020,
00:09:59.200
Kim admits that Kanye's faith was becoming a problem for their relationship. This is when
00:10:04.340
things were really taken down were inspired. Yeah, and I read a quote, if I can just read it.
00:10:11.480
This divorce is happening because Kim has grown a lot, a source told Page Six in January.
00:10:16.660
She's serious about taking the bar exam and becoming a lawyer. She's serious about her prison
00:10:21.120
reform campaign. Meanwhile, Kanye is talking about running for president and saying other
00:10:25.480
crazy S-H-I-T, and she's just had enough of it. But it's like, okay, but that kind of seems
00:10:30.760
selfish to me. Yeah. Like, I know he's a, he's a bit, he's an artist. He's all over the
00:10:35.060
place. He's a visionary. He is. He's a genius. Um, but like, I just seems kind of like me,
00:10:40.400
me, me, me, me, you know? Yeah. And it doesn't seem, like, you did exchange vows with this person,
00:10:44.340
and she goes on later to say that, like, you cannot, there's no way they can remedy the marriage,
00:10:48.400
and I just don't believe that's true. I think you just didn't try because, you know?
00:10:53.620
Yeah. Yeah. That's, that's, uh, a good point because it was only, they got married in 2014,
00:10:58.940
and then six years later, they're like, well, there's nothing we can do. That's what I mean.
00:11:02.320
And you have four beautiful children together. Yeah. Like, they're literally the first family
00:11:06.700
of the United States, and you can't work through it because you want to be a lawyer now? Like,
00:11:11.600
yeah, for every kid you have, you should add a couple years extra to the time you try to
00:11:15.320
save your marriage. Yeah. I think so, too. Um, yeah, I just thought that was interesting,
00:11:19.880
and then she talks a lot about how, like, her family would say certain things and stuff,
00:11:24.020
and it's, like, when you're married, you leave your mother and father and become one with your
00:11:27.480
wife, like, biblically, you know? So, it's, like, why are you listening to Chris? Yeah. Like,
00:11:31.500
she's kind of a devil. Like, obviously, that's not a fact. It is a fact. No. But she's, like,
00:11:38.520
not, I mean, I would, I would be mad at my mom if she did to me what she did to Kim.
00:11:43.400
Obviously, she put her on the world stage. Oh, the sex tape. The sex tape. Releasing of the
00:11:46.700
sex tape. Like, that's kind of dirty. It's not a loving thing to do. Even if I, even if Kim wanted
00:11:50.940
her to do it, I would hope my mom would be, like, no, we're going to take it to Mount Doom and throw
00:11:54.460
it in the fire. Yeah, I think that's the natural response for your child. Yes. Yeah. Um, or just
00:12:00.400
don't make one. But, like, if you do. Well, let's, come on. We're trying to be realistic now.
00:12:06.620
That's true. Um, so, in 2020, Kanye announced his presidential campaign. We kind of touched on that
00:12:12.060
already. And then that's when they decided to separate. Yes. And that was the end. 2020,
00:12:16.280
that was the end. Um, she filed for divorce in 2021. And I think. Immediately. Yeah. Starts
00:12:22.300
dating Pete Davidson. Which, I don't know. Was she blinded by, like, past trauma or something?
00:12:28.580
Or his handsomeness? She was blinded by his talent. He's so funny. So good looking. He's cute. Yeah.
00:12:37.400
Yeah. You know, I noticed something, um, when I was doing my research here. So Kim and Pete Davidson
00:12:43.800
shared a kiss on that Saturday Night Live episode. Well, he was in, Kanye was in the audience. Oh,
00:12:48.340
yeah. Okay. So that's a whole thing. Yeah. But she was dressed up as Jasmine from Aladdin. When
00:12:53.900
Kanye and Kim met, they, it wasn't their first meeting, but it was really, really early on. And
00:12:58.300
Kanye West was doing some, like, sketch comedy. Okay. And Kim Kardashian was playing Princess Leia. Okay. And I'm,
00:13:03.520
like, so she, like, she gets in a costume and then just falls in love with whoever she's,
00:13:08.240
like, doing the scene with. I don't know. If you're trying to date Kim Kardashian, give her
00:13:11.820
a cartoon, give her, like, a cartoonish costume. Disney vibes. Disney vibes. And then kiss her.
00:13:18.240
Yeah. And then she'll be yours for at least six years. Well, that's good. We should write a book
00:13:21.900
about that. Yeah. Um, just a funny little comparison. Who would have thought? But. And now in 2022,
00:13:27.160
they're officially divorced. Yeah. And now she's dating P and they're flaunting their relationship
00:13:31.900
online. And by the way, folks, he's 28 years old. She's 41. Yeah. Something like that. Yeah. She
00:13:39.480
looks 16. So I guess it makes sense. It's so common for men to date women 20 years younger
00:13:44.460
than them, especially in Hollywood. Like, hello, Leo, I'm talking to you. Which is gross, by the
00:13:48.000
way, Leo. Yeah. Like even people who are, like, happily married to their wives, there's, the wives
00:13:52.500
are, like, 10, 15 years younger on average. Again, I'm making up that stat, but it's, like, you see it
00:13:57.120
all the time. I would argue, though, that it's mostly because women, like, men take longer
00:14:01.040
to mature. So when a woman dates older, it's because she wants to be with a real man, not
00:14:04.480
some guy living in his mom's basement. That's a good point. Whereas, like, women we develop
00:14:08.180
earlier. Like, we're more matured. Yeah, I can see that. We tend to be. There is a trend
00:14:11.620
for a reason. Yeah. It's not that it's sexism. Like. Necessarily. Necessarily, yeah. But
00:14:15.160
Leo. It's preference. Leo. Yeah. But now she's dating a man that looks like he lives in his
00:14:19.380
mother's basement. He does. He really, he looks bad. Yeah. And not only is, does he look
00:14:24.540
bad, he now also has, like, a physical branding of Kim's name. Yes. So that was last week,
00:14:29.520
I think that was revealed, that he had Kim's name branded on his chest. Like, branded.
00:14:34.060
Like, yeah. Like a cattle. Like. So sick. That's, like, seems kind of permanent to me. I don't
00:14:39.580
know. Like. Important to note, though, he also has a tattoo of Hillary Clinton's face on his
00:14:45.340
body. So, you know, his body's not prime real estate. True. So he doesn't honor his body.
00:14:50.760
No. Yes. Exactly. Yeah. Exactly. Yeah. That's it. But it is interesting that she's moving on
00:14:55.880
so quickly and so publicly. Mm-hmm. Like, I mean, she does have children and, like, she
00:15:01.620
is in the public eye. So every move she makes. Yeah. Is going to be known by the public.
00:15:06.900
But they also go out on those, like, paparazzi. Yes. Dates. And they're, like, holding each
00:15:11.220
other's hand. Like, they could avoid that. They could just stay on their, like, million-dollar
00:15:14.360
compound. Yeah. Like, her house is, like, probably, like, a bajillion square feet. Like, have you
00:15:17.940
ever seen a picture of her, like, without any makeup or on the toilet or something? Like, no.
00:15:23.660
No. She has privacy in her life. Yeah. So she could obviously be dating Pete in the
00:15:28.460
private space. Now, I know that Kanye West has asked that she not introduce the kids
00:15:34.380
to Pete Davidson. Yes. How do you know if that's true? Like, I guess you asked your
00:15:38.960
kid. Yeah, I'm sure. That can't last forever, though. No, it can't last forever. And, I
00:15:43.480
mean, there will, he should, he should have a say in this conversation. Like, there's a lot
00:15:47.240
of outrage because of their text exchange of Pete Davidson showing that he was in bed and
00:15:52.120
he claimed to be in bed with Kim. Anyway, super inappropriate. Unsubstantiated. Yeah.
00:15:56.700
But, you know, people were like, oh, well, Kanye has no right to be mad about this. Well,
00:16:00.820
yes, he does because it's the mother of his children. They have a history. Like, it'd be
00:16:05.500
weird if he wasn't mad. It'd be super weird. And by the way, he is not innocent either,
00:16:09.960
though. He has been, you know, walking around town with Julia and. Yeah, no, he's had three
00:16:14.240
girlfriends in the time that she's had one. Exactly. So he can't really. Yeah, no. He's
00:16:19.200
being a little hypocritical. Like, was she not, maybe he didn't introduce the kids to
00:16:22.340
any of those girls? I doubt it. Yeah, like, maybe, maybe. We don't know. But the point
00:16:26.140
is, is he's not, like, saying, like, I should be the leading by example here and not being
00:16:31.460
out seen in the public eye with another woman. Like, he's not doing that either. So while
00:16:35.240
she is totally flaunting Pete, he flaunted Julia Fox and there was two other, and then his
00:16:39.980
most recent, which I'm sure is. Who looks like Kim. Who looks exactly like Kim? What's her
00:16:43.340
name? I don't know. Kim Smartashian? Maybe she's a little smarter. Or not. I mean, Kim is a lawyer.
00:16:50.020
Okay, so one of the other kind of articles that we had talks about how Kim likes to take
00:16:56.020
the high road. Do we believe that? Right. So that was, she said that on a daytime talk
00:17:02.640
show. Yeah. So she was talking about how, like, Kanye's making all these Instagram posts
00:17:06.440
and she's like, I'm taking the high road. But it's like, you're saying that on a daytime
00:17:09.860
talk show. Yeah. Like, I'm such a good ex-wife. Yeah. Like, I never, I never, like, talk
00:17:17.260
S-H-I-T about my ex on social media. It's like, well, you're kind of doing it right
00:17:22.160
now on TV. Yeah. Like, you're making it look like you're taking the high road. Yeah. I
00:17:25.400
guess it's degrees. It's like slight differences and, like, maybe his is slightly worse. Yeah.
00:17:30.700
I don't know. No, maybe. I mean, and by the way, I do think that we shouldn't be praising
00:17:36.320
him for being outspoken about some of the stuff he's been outspoken about. I think he should
00:17:39.760
really try to be more private about their divorce. I do think she has been. Yeah.
00:17:43.560
I think she needs to tell Pete to shut the heck up. Yeah. And stay out of things. Pete,
00:17:47.540
stay out of things. Yeah. These people have children together. Like, you can see her and
00:17:51.200
do whatever you want, but, like, stay out of it. Yeah, definitely. Like, you don't need
00:17:54.160
to defend your girlfriend. Yeah. Like, that's, again, like, not to use the sexist card, but
00:18:00.440
I find it to be a little sexist that he thinks he needs to defend Kim to Kanye. Like, excuse
00:18:05.120
me, they were married. Yeah. They know how to talk to each other. And they've been friends
00:18:07.620
for years. They've been friends for years. She even said after they were, after their divorce
00:18:11.000
had, I think, been finalized, Kim said that he's an amazing, or the best dad. Yes. So
00:18:16.380
they have a, they had a pretty good relationship up until recently. Like, she does not need
00:18:20.180
you to, unless she asked you. Yeah. Which maybe she did. I doubt it. I do too. She seems like
00:18:25.260
she wants to speak for herself on these matters. Yeah. I just want to know why she's dating
00:18:29.520
him, though. He seems like such a slime ball. Because she, honestly, because, my guess, is
00:18:34.080
because Kanye found his faith and then she is quoted as saying he's become really, really
00:18:38.640
strict and religious. Right. So it probably went from, like, having... Stop removing
00:18:41.440
TVs from his kids. Well, there could be Whitplate. Yeah. I guess if there was crazier stuff, maybe
00:18:46.360
we would have heard about it. Yeah. But I can imagine, you know, someone who's just finding
00:18:49.320
their faith takes it a little too far and is like, you can't do anything. Everything is
00:18:52.780
satanic. So it's like, she's probably just trying to have some freaking fun. Yeah. No, I understand
00:18:57.860
that. And I mean, going back to, like, the whole God thing for a second, like, it was Kanye's
00:19:05.140
job to be the spiritual example in their household. And he clearly wasn't because she didn't want
00:19:10.900
any part of it at all. And I think that's probably why they ended up parting ways. They weren't
00:19:15.800
equally yoked. But honestly, like, he just didn't seem to be leading the household the
00:19:20.820
way he's called to as a man of God. And so I do think he fell short there. And I think
00:19:25.160
that does deserve criticism in a way. And like, so I do kind of sympathize with her a little
00:19:30.740
bit in that regard. Because she didn't sign up for this. Exactly. Like, when they got married,
00:19:34.080
he wasn't super religious. So to just like, kind of, and again, we, I don't know his diagnosis,
00:19:39.240
but he has technically been labeled as, or diagnosed as bipolar publicly. So do I know
00:19:45.600
what's going on in his brain? No. But if you're dealing with someone who's bipolar, he might be
00:19:49.040
like super chill one day. And it's like, oh, do you want to do this? Cool. And then the next day
00:19:52.820
be like, that's, you know, forbidden in the Bible. And she's like, whoa, where did that come from?
00:19:56.220
Like, that's, I'm just trying to take a stab in the dark here. No, for sure. And, but, you know,
00:20:00.360
if the diagnosis was too much for her, like, I'm sorry, but that's too bad. So sad, Kim,
00:20:04.320
because it's for richer, for poorer, for better, for worse, you know, sickness and in health. So,
00:20:08.880
I mean, I don't know. There's so much that we could like discuss about all of that. I just,
00:20:13.660
I just, the Pete thing. He's just sucks. Yeah, he sucks. I think he's the real villain in the
00:20:19.920
situation. I agree. Totally. Yeah. I think he thinks that, I mean, he's kind of like one of those
00:20:24.340
young girls who falls in love with a guy and she's like, this is it. This is totally. And it's
00:20:28.380
like, you're 16. Calm down. Like he says that he has had other girls. He had Ariana Grande tattooed
00:20:33.860
on his body as well. Bunny ears. It was bunny ears to represent her. So it's like not the first
00:20:38.620
time he's tattooed. So it's not that flattering Kim that he branded your name. Yeah, exactly. Like
00:20:43.160
you're, you're more of a memento. Maybe me. I think he genuinely, like I said, is like a little girl.
00:20:48.000
Yes. Literal notches on his skin. Yeah. So gross. And maybe he actually is like,
00:20:54.340
so delusional that he's like, yeah, this is the one, like this 20 year difference. Like
00:20:58.360
probably it's not, I'm not going to give it more than six months to a year.
00:21:03.140
Well, they've technically been together a year. So six more months. Oh, wow. Yeah. Well,
00:21:06.660
isn't my face red. I think that should be the culture shock. Yeah. That is shocking. Every episode.
00:21:13.460
Yeah. No, I, I, I think there, it will be a short lived relationship. I think you're completely
00:21:17.500
right. And then when that happens, you know, I don't think she's going to necessarily go running
00:21:21.660
back to Kanye, but maybe it's going to be like, maybe you shouldn't have let him like
00:21:24.520
make such a scene in front of the world about our private business. Or maybe she's going to be
00:21:30.780
like, great. I sold more lip glosses than ever that, that month. I will be buying one. You know,
00:21:36.520
that would be great if they got back together. Maybe we should ship that. I don't know. I would
00:21:40.200
ship that because, you know, I, I was again, in my research, I've never done such a deep dive into
00:21:45.420
Kanye in my whole freaking life. It's a lot guys. This could take, we could spend the whole episode
00:21:49.480
talking about this. We might, we might. Yeah. Um, I actually gained a little bit of respect
00:21:52.780
for Kim Kardashian. I, which previously I had zero respect for her. Yeah. Maybe like 5%
00:21:57.520
because I was like, okay. Yeah. Like you have been like, yeah, that's one thing. She puts
00:22:00.860
in the effing work guys. She freaking does the work. Um, no, but like she's been the, the number
00:22:06.960
one female for years. Yeah. Like since I was in university, which is, you know, a little while
00:22:11.640
ago, like she has year. Yeah. Just graduated. Yeah. Um, she has been famous for so long. So she's
00:22:17.520
obviously doing something right in terms like, do I think that selling your soul to the devil
00:22:21.420
to become famous is the way to go? No, but she's doing something right in the, in the
00:22:25.380
scheme. She sustained herself. She's marketing herself. Well, so that's, you know, I guess
00:22:29.080
respectable as a skill she's done well. Business wise, really nice selfies. She takes, she
00:22:34.260
basically invented like pursing your lips and look at whatever she's, she's iconic, whether
00:22:40.340
you like her or not. Like even David Menzies was like, it was like Kim Kardashian. She broke
00:22:45.260
the internet. And I was like, David, that was 10 years ago. But yes, like she, she didn't
00:22:50.380
break the internet. But look, we all know Kim Kardashian, like to pretend that she's not
00:22:53.600
iconic is a little bit of cognitive dissonance, I think. Yeah. And what we've talked about
00:22:57.620
before is she has massive influence. So she's important. It's important to talk about people
00:23:01.040
who can literally tell you who to vote for and a crowd of people will vote for them.
00:23:04.760
Like we need to have a critical eye on these people. Um, but I think one more thing that
00:23:09.420
maybe we should address is just the fact that I think Kanye West is a very good dad.
00:23:12.960
Yes. It seems, yeah. Again, like I mentioned of his bipolar disorder, maybe he doesn't always
00:23:18.460
go about communicating things in the best way and like posting them on Instagram instead
00:23:21.860
of talking to his family or lawyer. Like he mentioned about North. He's like my, this
00:23:25.500
is my first divorce. How do I get North off of TikTok? Basically. Um, that's a conversation
00:23:31.160
you should have with your child, the mother of your child and your lawyer.
00:23:33.840
And that's assuming Kim is open to actually communicating with him because we don't know
00:23:38.100
Well then talk to your lawyer about it and talk to your child about it. However, I totally agree
00:23:42.000
with you. I think that based on the posts that he makes in the comments that he makes,
00:23:45.240
whether he should make them publicly or not, it's very clear to me that he loves his kids.
00:23:49.600
Yeah. And he wants to protect them and that he loves Kim.
00:23:52.400
Yeah. He still loves her based on what I've read. Even up until 2021, he was saying like,
00:23:57.440
he wants a, he wants a reunion with her. Definitely.
00:24:00.400
People thought it would be uncool to be married. Then I got married and people are like, oh, that
00:24:04.840
looks cool. No one ever thought it'd be uncool to marry Kim Kardashian. Everybody thought
00:24:09.840
it would be cool to marry Kim Kardashian. Well, not Chris Humphries.
00:24:13.080
It's more than cool. It's more than cool as hell or something. It's heavenly. It's great. It's magnificent.
00:24:22.240
And God is using me as a human being. You know, I, you know, as humbly as I could put it,
00:24:30.160
he's using me to show off. It's such a blasphemous statement to think that as a man,
00:24:34.960
you can perfect anything. God is the only thing that's perfect. So the only thing that can be
00:24:40.320
perfect is God's plan. I get to work for God and he about to show out. Kanye West works for God.
00:24:47.200
Can you lend me a million dollars? Another example of how he is a standup dad,
00:24:55.280
I think is the fact that he did buy a house close by so that he could be a part of his kids' lives
00:24:59.440
because he knows that fathers are important. They're important figures. And him and North,
00:25:03.200
I think seem to have a really special bond as well. And so I think it's, I think it's sweet
00:25:07.360
that he's protective of his children. And he, despite his relationship with Kim, I think they both want
00:25:13.200
to make it work for their kids. And I think that's really nice, but I just think Pete needs
00:25:17.920
to get the hell out. Yeah. I think they would, I think they were doing a good job at that until
00:25:21.520
Pete Davidson got involved. And he stirred the pot with his weird text messages. Yeah. And the
00:25:25.760
branding, like, don't like they're going through a messiness right now and the children are involved
00:25:30.240
and Kanye's obviously mentally unstable. Like why get her name branded on you and show it like,
00:25:35.360
just wear a shirt for a couple of months until things have settled down a little bit. I agree.
00:25:39.280
Also, um, just looking at the timeline here, Kanye West has basically loved Kim Kardashian for like
00:25:45.360
20 years. Yeah. That's, that's pretty crazy. That's commitment. That's you don't fall out of
00:25:49.680
love with someone that you've loved for 20 years in six months or a year. And they're like, he should
00:25:54.160
move on. It's like, he's in love with his wife. Sorry. But then also, you know, Kanye stopped dating
00:25:59.280
people. Yeah. No, you're not. He's not a beacon of morality. No, but I do agree with you. I think like
00:26:04.160
he's, he's clearly committed. Um, he should get her name branded on him. Maybe that would,
00:26:09.040
that might do it. Maybe that might help. Maybe he should dye his hair blonde and tell bad jokes
00:26:13.600
and that'll work too. We'll see. Um, here's a quote from one of his IG posts recently. He says,
00:26:19.760
divorce feels like full blown COVID. Divorce feels like your doctor don't know S H I T. He wrote on
00:26:25.120
the post. That's kind of like funny COVID wise too. Yeah. It's like, it's like almost like the doctor
00:26:31.360
doesn't know what he just injected into you. Yeah. That is funny. Yeah. And it's not a little,
00:26:34.880
that's terrifying. So I feel bad for him because he's in a dark place. He is. And I think we should
00:26:39.600
pray for him. I wish that these people could handle this in a less public setting, but I guess
00:26:44.400
this is what Kim Kardashian does to sustain her career on top maybe. Um, but yeah, we should pray
00:26:49.360
for them. I think divorce is sad. Um, and it's even more sad in this situation because it is on the
00:26:54.720
public stage and, uh, yeah, Matt Walsh had a really funny tweet about this. It's true. Um,
00:27:01.680
yeah, let's pray for them. Everyone. Um, Pete Davidson, I know you're no longer going to space,
00:27:06.880
but what I wish you just get on that rack rocket and stay there. Um, but yeah, we'll pray for you
00:27:11.680
too. Cause you gotta, yeah, everyone needs a prayer. Yeah. Pray for your enemies. You're not,
00:27:15.920
I'm hoping that this cools down and that maybe in time they can reconcile their family. And that
00:27:21.600
would be really nice. I agree to this tale. Yeah. And most importantly, I think it's just
00:27:25.840
the children, as long as they are out of not harmed by this, I think that's the one number
00:27:30.640
one thing to hope for in situations like, yeah, obviously we know that I think the divorce rates
00:27:35.440
even gone up past 50% now. Let's just say it's 50%. Like that means like you have half the chance of
00:27:41.760
messing it up and having children of divorced parents. I myself am a child of divorce. I'm all right.
00:27:48.160
She's great. I just got over it. Yeah. She's not like steam. It's not idea. I know it took 16 years
00:27:54.320
to get over it. So it's not ideal, but you can still make it come. You can overcome these things,
00:27:59.200
but it's sad. It messed me up for sure. Yeah. Yeah. And I mean, and imagine the pressure of being
00:28:05.120
in the public eye as well. I just, so pray for the kids, the kids pray for Kim. Yeah. Yay. Kim yay.
00:28:12.720
And I will not call him yay. No, me either. No, I'm going to be, I'm going to be a name phobe about it.
00:28:17.200
I am. I am too. Okay. So another heavy topic. Yeah. This one. Okay. Do we want to preface it
00:28:25.360
by what, why we're talking about surrogacy? Yeah. I think that's a good idea. This is a topical issue.
00:28:30.960
I think before we do that though, like we just, this is a very controversial topic. We are not experts.
00:28:35.920
We do not claim to be experts. We're still learning about this. And we do want to talk about this
00:28:40.480
topic with compassion and love. Like our heart is in the right place here. Um, but it is,
00:28:45.600
my heart's a little bit to the left of where it should be. Right. It's she, we'll get that
00:28:50.160
checked out later. Close to the right. Yeah. It's close to the right. Um, but yeah, we will,
00:28:54.960
we just think that it's important to talk about this topic because it is surrogacy,
00:28:58.800
the surrogacy industry is a billion dollar corporate industry. Yeah. I did not know that. Me either.
00:29:05.520
I did not know that until I started doing research yesterday, yesterday. So again,
00:29:09.200
this is all very, very new to me. Um, there are great resources, uh, to that we'll link in the
00:29:14.960
description of the episode even, because I think it's important for you guys to do your own research.
00:29:18.240
But, um, this conversation kind of sprung because of Dave Rubin's announcement that him and his husband,
00:29:23.680
David are Dave and David. Yeah. Oh, are going to be having two sets of babies in the summer. So,
00:29:30.640
so that means two separate surrogates and it was, it was received mixed, mixed reviews on that,
00:29:38.400
on the internet. Well, it's very interesting because Dave Rubin came from the left and because
00:29:42.000
of how crazy the left has become, he's been pushed over to, he calls himself a centrist, but by all,
00:29:47.040
like most of his fans today are center right. Yeah. So now that he's made this announcement about his
00:29:53.360
two babies from two different surrogates, the right is wildly divided on the topic. Yes. And
00:29:59.760
that's kind of interesting because he might lose some fans. There might be. Yeah. Well, I think that
00:30:04.080
where the divide is though, it's, it's like the, the Christian conservatives and then the secular
00:30:08.640
conservatives. And I think why we can't really, I mean, I'm a Christian conservative and I think we
00:30:14.240
can't really hold Dave Rubin to the same level of expectation as we would for other Christian
00:30:19.600
conservatives. Cause he's just a conservative, like he, as we hold to ourselves, right?
00:30:23.200
Exactly. Forget that. Like, yeah, definitely. But I mean, iron sharpens iron. We are called to
00:30:27.280
speak the truth in love. And, um, but I just think like we, we can't really be mad at him
00:30:32.640
because he's not a Christian. Yeah. Um, so whether you agree with him or not, that's a really good
00:30:37.760
point, you know? So how do you feel about it? Yeah. So I don't think that conservatives,
00:30:48.240
Christians especially should be applauding this because I think that a child has a right to
00:30:52.400
a mother and a father. Um, it's, it's, I mean, we talk so much in society about the importance
00:30:58.800
of like fathers in the household and how fatherlessness has been such a detriment to society.
00:31:03.360
But what about two fathers though? So they'll be double as, but what about motherlessness?
00:31:07.120
Yeah. JK, JK. Like, you know, I know it's, it's true. And by the way, this is, this is nothing to
00:31:11.440
do with them as parents. I'm sure they're going to be wonderful parents. They seem like beautiful
00:31:14.800
people. I really liked Dave Rubin by the way. Yeah. Um, but I do think that that child has a right to a
00:31:20.000
mother. And now, I mean, we'll get more into like what happens when you have a surrogate,
00:31:25.840
um, and you know, how that might impact a baby and even the biological mother or the,
00:31:31.120
the body that it's in the surrogate, I guess. Um, but yeah, I just think there's a reason,
00:31:37.920
you know, God created man and woman to reproduce. Um, and there's a reason that children are supposed
00:31:42.640
to be born to moms and dads. It's the bedrock. The nuclear family is a bedrock for a successful
00:31:46.880
society. So I do, I do see the outrage there from Christians, um, Christian conservatives,
00:31:52.000
you know, but again, like he's not a Christian, so we can't hold him to that same standard.
00:32:01.120
experience with surrogacy is from friends when Phoebe was have carrying her brother's triplets,
00:32:07.200
kind of gross. If you think, yeah, well, she, she had fun with that. She's like,
00:32:10.160
I'm carrying my brother's children. Yeah. Um, so I always thought that surrogacy,
00:32:14.960
and this is going to show my ignorance on this. I literally thought I knew that there were like
00:32:19.200
companies that could set you up, but I really thought like most surrogates were like, oh,
00:32:22.800
my sister here is going to carry my child to turn sometimes. Okay. So that it's not,
00:32:27.840
that's how I exactly. So that's how I was like, so what his, cause I did read that Dave Rubin has a
00:32:32.800
sister and they were like, it might be a sister. It might be someone else. So it's like, that's kind
00:32:35.920
of cute to me. And I'm like, if your sister wants to do that for you, she can still be in the kids
00:32:40.960
in life. Like she can still like sniff the baby's head and all that weird stuff. Um, but having done
00:32:47.840
research on this, I didn't realize that surrogacy is like a billion dollar industry. Like you mentioned,
00:32:52.800
um, and also interesting little tidbit of information is that most, um, babies that are
00:32:58.720
surrogated, surrogated, I don't know, born from a surrogate mother are imported from the Ukraine.
00:33:06.080
Interesting. And right now there are bombs and stuff going off in the Ukraine. So
00:33:11.840
a lot of these surrogates have been put in bomb shelters. Oh, so we just can't go collect their
00:33:17.040
babies. Yes. And the babies are now stuck in a war turned country with these like young mothers who
00:33:21.920
are like in bomb shelters, giving birth in like terrible conditions. So, you know, obviously there's
00:33:28.960
a lot to unpack there. Yeah. Um, not every baby is born in a bomb shelter, but it seemed like the
00:33:34.480
more research I did, the more I noticed that they were talking about the baby, like a commodity,
00:33:39.040
like how many rubber duckies have we produced this year? Well, how many babies have we produced? It's
00:33:42.800
like babies are not rubber ducks. They're human beings. Yeah. They're not iPhones. You don't just
00:33:46.640
produce them and then ship them out to other countries for like rich white Americans who can't
00:33:50.480
have their own like that. Or Chinese billionaires. Yeah. Yeah. That's pretty messed up when you think
00:33:54.320
about a child being a commodity like that. Well, child is an unconsenting subject. Yeah.
00:33:59.120
In this experiment. That's another good point. They don't consent to this. Why don't we talk about
00:34:03.760
the, um, that ethics, uh, Birmingham's university of Birmingham's article on the ethics of surrogacy.
00:34:10.160
So they pointed out three main points and they kind of lead us through, we kind of touched on them
00:34:14.800
already, but let's, so number one is surrogates. Like how are these people being compensated? So
00:34:20.400
surrogacy is a 24 hour, seven day a week job for 10 months. Are the women being properly
00:34:24.240
compensated? And B is it moral to compensate someone for delivering a baby? These, this is
00:34:30.560
question, moral question the first. Yeah. Then we have, how can we protect the autonomy of a woman's
00:34:35.600
body? If the customer has to say in the pregnancy decisions, this is big. I didn't even think about
00:34:40.880
that. Yeah. Yeah. So just kind of let's, maybe let's start with the first point here and just talk
00:34:45.040
about that. So the commodity aspect. So that's one of the things, the argument you always hear is,
00:34:50.160
oh, this person is consenting to this. But a lot of the times when you're consenting to this,
00:34:54.720
um, you don't, maybe this person's under a lot of pressure to make a lot of money. They're not
00:34:58.000
really given informed consent. These are very high risk pregnancies that can result in literal death
00:35:02.640
of the mother and the child. And a lot of these people who are surrogates have kids of their own.
00:35:06.400
So this person is risking their own life so that you can have a baby, like just so you can rent their
00:35:11.440
womb, so to speak. I think there's a lot of ethical issues there. We could talk about that alone for
00:35:15.840
probably two hours. Yeah. And, and you mentioned when we were chatting before about like, you know,
00:35:19.680
vaccination, cause there's a big debate around, uh, pregnant women getting vaccinated or not and
00:35:24.000
say, I'm the surrogate and I'm choosing not to be vaccinated. And the, and the customer is like,
00:35:29.120
oh no, you must be vaccinated. You absolutely must. And it's like, okay, I no longer have a say in what
00:35:33.840
happens to my body autonomy. I have no, so as you know, as a, uh, well, it goes along with everything
00:35:40.320
else. I feel about morals. Like I believe a woman should have the right to say what happens to her body
00:35:44.320
in terms of vaccination. I, I am personally pro choice when it comes to abortion, but I've said
00:35:48.720
this before, like my choice is life. Right. And I encourage others to do the same, but I do think
00:35:53.280
at the end of the day, the woman should have that autonomy. So when you take, and we can, you know,
00:35:57.920
debate that at length for sure. I know some people at rebel have different opinions on that and that's
00:36:03.120
cool. Like you have to, we have to be able to talk about these things. Definitely. Yeah.
00:36:06.080
And I'm, um, but I believe she should have autonomy. And so, right. And I'll, you know,
00:36:09.840
many cases, um, because when you are a surrogate for, they inject, I don't really,
00:36:14.720
I'm not going to talk about the science about it or anything, but you, you inject eggs and sperm
00:36:19.120
together in the moment. There's like hormonal things that make you more fertile. This is what
00:36:21.600
happens. It's like science. But a lot of times it's results in twins or triplets. And what if the,
00:36:27.680
the person who's buying your, renting your womb, let's call that, uh, doesn't want multiple children.
00:36:32.880
They just want one. Well, they can be like abort to keep one and you have no say you're contractually
00:36:38.320
obliged to abort your baby, which can also be very high risk. That's very high risk. Like
00:36:44.320
you're going under the knife while you're pregnant and they're going to rip out two babies. Oh my God.
00:36:48.560
Like that is so unethical and no one wants to talk about that. Um, I just, I just think that's
00:36:53.520
egregious. That's hugely not to mention the fact that mothers basically have no rights. Like they,
00:36:58.720
like these biological beings have no rights at all. Like they, it's just, it's sad. Like women are
00:37:04.800
more than our uteruses. We're more than our ability to reproduce. And I just think it's,
00:37:09.920
it's kind of erasing women, this whole thing. Cause we're just these like bodies that you use.
00:37:13.760
I've heard rumors about the idea of synthetic wombs. So it's kind of step a where it's like,
00:37:18.880
you don't really need to be fertile. You don't need to be a man and a woman. We don't need any of
00:37:22.080
that. What you need is a viable egg and you need sperm. Maybe we can create, we can make,
00:37:27.120
so they're talking about creating, uh, synthetic wombs, which would take away the surrogacy issue. And maybe,
00:37:31.760
maybe for a lot of the points that we're talking about here, body autonomy and whatever, maybe
00:37:35.200
it's more ethical. Perhaps. Yeah. But then you're like, okay, well, what if they can make synthetic
00:37:39.200
eggs? Yeah. What if they can make synthetic sperm and eggs? Which I think that is a thing. That is a
00:37:43.520
thing. So basically women are rendered useless. So we don't, we're not going to be swimmers because
00:37:48.320
we can't be as fast. So we're not going to be mothers either. Nope. We can, we're just nothing.
00:37:53.120
We're pointless. That sounds great. So feminists has really helped us ladies. Yeah. Thanks.
00:37:57.440
Thanks feminism. Yeah. That's been great. Yeah. It's interesting. And I do think it's okay. Maybe
00:38:02.640
we should also talk a little bit about the fact that like, like the word family and the way that's
00:38:06.880
been defined because so many people are like, oh, when are you going to start a family to a couple?
00:38:11.600
And it's like, no, you are a family. You're married, you're a unit. And if you can't reproduce
00:38:15.520
and you're having fertility issues, by the way, like I sympathize with you. That's sad.
00:38:19.200
It doesn't mean you're not a family just because you can't reproduce.
00:38:21.760
Exactly. And I just think also it's important for couples to realize that you, it's not a,
00:38:27.200
your right to have children. It's, it's a privilege. And there are other ways of going
00:38:32.640
about starting a family, so to speak. And I do think that that should be considered before you
00:38:37.040
decide to rent another woman's uterus and put her at risk and the baby is the more ethical choice like
00:38:42.560
adoption. I do think so. Yeah. Because that's a reaction. Yeah. Like it's a reactive thing that is
00:38:47.200
beneficial to society, beneficial to the kid and the child. Yeah. Um, oh, you made a really good
00:38:52.480
point and maybe we'll get to that. Um, but it's kind of like, there's an analogy between like puppy
00:38:56.960
mills. Yeah. Jennifer Lall, she, I will give her credit. She is like a big expert on all this stuff.
00:39:02.400
So you guys should check her out. But yeah, that's the example where it came from. Well, I, I,
00:39:06.000
my example was like, um, we stopped making puppy mills legal in Canada many, many years ago.
00:39:11.920
Yeah. Um, but it's sort of like surrogacy. This big industry of surrogacy is sort of like a baby mill.
00:39:16.880
Yeah. And then you said, um, what was their point? Yeah. So when, when a dog has puppies,
00:39:23.520
okay, the puppies need to stay with the mummy for like eight to 12 weeks before ripping them away
00:39:28.400
from their mother. And if you've ever had a puppy, you know that you, you get to see it when it's
00:39:31.520
born and then you're like, okay, I have to come back in eight weeks. It needs to be nursed. Yes.
00:39:34.640
It needs to hang out with its mom. It's too small. Yeah. It's too little. Um, so cute. Now I'm thinking
00:39:38.720
about puppies, but with surrogacy, this woman gives birth and then it's immediately ripped out of her
00:39:45.200
hands and it's like, bye. And then it's just put in like, in these situations where it's like a
00:39:49.680
business, it's put in a room with all these other babies, just like chilling, chilling. And they
00:39:54.560
don't have access to the mother. And like, we know that skin on skin contact specifically from the
00:39:58.800
mother is extremely psychological and psychologically beneficial to the baby. A thousand percent.
00:40:03.840
Yeah. Um, they can literally die. Babies can die if they're not touched and hugged. It's,
00:40:08.800
it sounds like it's faux science, but it's not. No. And I believe you. I believe you. It's been,
00:40:13.280
it's been like, this has been what you do with babies for since the beginning of time,
00:40:16.800
you hand the baby to the mom. Yeah. And not to mention too, when this baby goes home with complete
00:40:21.920
strangers, it no longer hears its mom's voice, the heartbeat, the heartbeat, it heard its heartbeat
00:40:28.320
for eight, nine, 10 months inside the womb. And then all of a sudden nothing. And what are the long-term
00:40:33.200
effects of growing like that? What are the long-term effects of that? We don't know because I don't
00:40:37.120
think anyone wants to research it because this business is so lucrative. Yeah. Yeah. And,
00:40:41.200
and because you'll get yelled at if you even question it because it's like homophobic or
00:40:45.840
something or, or anti woman. Like if, if it turns out that I can't have kids, am I going to be
00:40:50.640
immediately offended by this conversation? I hope not. Like I hope if I ever unfortunately get to
00:40:55.760
that stage, like I hope that I can still talk about these things with an open mind and an open heart.
00:40:59.840
Well, that's a great point though. Like if a lot of people too, they go to the doctor and then
00:41:04.240
because they're trying to have kids and they're healthy, they're young, they're allegedly fertile. And the
00:41:08.320
doctor immediately points to like IVF or like surrogacy. And it's like, well, maybe you should
00:41:14.000
try to get to the root of the problem here because so many women, I mean, like we've talked about on
00:41:17.280
the show a million times, your period, your fertility, it's so sensitive. You could, it could be
00:41:21.360
like raining outside and I'm like, I'm late. Yeah, exactly. You know, like anything can impact your
00:41:26.480
fertility. So it's really important that we, first of all, don't just trust one expert opinion, go to
00:41:31.600
multiple doctors and get a true and honest. Before you start injecting yourself with hormones. Yeah,
00:41:36.000
exactly. And wasting money that you don't need to be spending because it's like, it's expensive.
00:41:40.880
It's for the wealthy. This is a, it's a very privileged thing. That's another thing. It's
00:41:44.720
a very privileged thing. Yeah. Yeah. So the people that you're insulting by having these conversations
00:41:48.240
are like rich white gay people. Yeah. So yeah. And Kim Kardashian, I guess. Yeah, exactly.
00:41:53.520
Kim Kardashian. Um, there's the third point from the Birmingham article, uh, legal loopholes in global
00:41:59.520
markets. So there are countries obviously where they have like more lax laws in terms of like what human
00:42:05.680
treatment and human rights. So by X, by exporting children or importing children from these countries,
00:42:11.840
you could be putting a woman and a baby in really unsafe conditions. And we know like probably the
00:42:18.080
Ukraine probably has much laxer laws than we would here in the same, like under the same contractual
00:42:23.520
obligation. That's a good point. So you can be hurting a baby and the mother
00:42:27.120
just by trying to save a buck or get a baby faster than if you were to do it in Canada.
00:42:34.320
Right. Or California. I think there's a huge industry in California. So which makes sense
00:42:38.720
because all these celebrities for some reason, why are we so infertile though? That's like,
00:42:42.880
we're, we don't have any notes on that. I'm just, I know that you, you know, whenever
00:42:46.800
yeah, seriously, like it's like plastics and like everything we do makes us infertile. I didn't
00:42:52.240
like, it's like, oh, the hairspray I'm using. Like, yeah, that, that makes you infertile. Like
00:42:55.360
this pen is plastic. Put it in my mouth. That makes me infertile. Remember Olaplex? There's
00:42:58.160
that article about Olaplex, which is like a very expensive hair treatment product and that can render
00:43:03.280
you infertile. I think just, there's so many that your perfume might even think like, yeah, it's terrifying.
00:43:07.920
So, and that's why I think we advocate for clean beauty so often too and stuff because
00:43:12.240
you're literally putting these things on and in your body and your skin is an organ and it's
00:43:16.880
the largest organ in your whole body. So when you're pasting on chemical makeup,
00:43:21.520
which I totally did just before coming out here. Oh, wow. You look great. Thank you.
00:43:25.440
Worth it. We'll find out. But when you're scraping your face with chemicals and then three years,
00:43:31.840
five years down the line, you're like, oh, I'm infertile better go buy a baby from Ukraine. It's like
00:43:36.320
like maybe this is a huge societal issue that we should be looking at holistically instead
00:43:42.480
of just trying to find ways to make women into baby producing robots. Yeah. And you know,
00:43:48.320
we got to think about the children here even more importantly, you know, like,
00:43:51.760
Won't somebody think of the children? Won't somebody think of the children? No,
00:43:54.800
but seriously. No, seriously. We got to think about the children. We do.
00:43:58.800
And also one of the things you brought to my attention today was that there's a lot of human
00:44:02.880
trafficking actually associated with this industry. That's something else I forgot about.
00:44:06.560
Yeah. They're intertwined and I was reading articles and I'll find it and I'll link it. But,
00:44:11.120
um, yes, there's a huge crossover between people who have gone missing, who are suspected of human
00:44:16.800
being human trafficking victims and people who are suspected of being like surrogacy, like forced
00:44:21.760
surrogacy victims. That is insane. And I, I feel like that's not talked about enough. I have a quote.
00:44:27.920
It's highly upsetting. Well, that's okay. We love being upset on this show. So, oh wait,
00:44:33.360
maybe that's not it. Okay. Yes. So this is from the heritage foundation, which is one of the sources.
00:44:39.040
Um, this is a quote, the surrogacy trafficking trade use the same network that use that was used
00:44:44.800
for domestic work and sex trade from poor regions of India into urban areas. These unmarried girls were
00:44:50.320
impregnated with embryos without their consent. Others were confined in homes. And when girls tried to run
00:44:55.200
away, they were caught, brought back and beaten. Like I have like goosebumps right now. Like that's
00:45:00.320
disgusting. That's like so disgusting and messed up. And obviously like, am I trying to imply that
00:45:06.640
Dave Rubin's baby is like one of these perhaps not, but does he know for sure? Yeah. Even if they say
00:45:12.000
it's like, oh, it's with this, this LA, you know, firm, they have, you know, um, partners all over the
00:45:16.880
world. Binders of women. Yeah. They have binders of women. Like you don't really know what the CD
00:45:22.000
background stuff is going on. And I think that's why it's important that we're having this chat
00:45:26.400
because it's, um, we should be looking into this. We can't just accept something as good because
00:45:31.840
Kim Kardashian and other celebrities say it's good. Like, and that you'll be yelled at if you
00:45:36.080
question it whatsoever. Yeah, exactly. Um, so I do think it's important. And you know,
00:45:39.920
maybe Dave Rubin just didn't know. He doesn't know about this. That's fine. I guess. And maybe it's
00:45:43.840
his sister. Like maybe at the end of the day, or it can't be really because he has two sisters.
00:45:47.680
But yeah, that's probably not. But maybe he like, let's just give him the benefit of the doubt for
00:45:51.760
this thought experiment. Like maybe he knows two women who are like, I would be happy to do this
00:45:55.600
for you. I've had five children on my own. I'm done. Like, I'm a great birth giver. Like,
00:46:00.400
I would love to help you out here. And he was like, oh, no. And he's like, please let me do this.
00:46:04.240
And he's like, okay. Like, yeah, I think there are certain situations where maybe it would be okay.
00:46:08.880
But again, they are high risk pregnancies. So that should be considered,
00:46:12.160
I think like, but all surrogacies. Yeah. Every single pregnancy is a high risk considered high
00:46:17.120
risk. Oh yeah. So it's like, so that puts the baby and the mother in danger. So you don't even have
00:46:22.400
to be in the Ukraine or in India to be in danger. Yeah. That's really upsetting. It is upsetting.
00:46:27.360
Maybe synthetic ones are the way to go. Or we can just stop using like black plastics. Yeah.
00:46:34.080
Like every time you order food on DoorDash or Uber Eats, it comes in that black plastic,
00:46:38.080
which is non-recyclable and is full of like cancerous, fertility-killing chemicals. And
00:46:44.000
we're like, mm, Pad Thai. Like maybe let's stop that. Yeah. I did notice that Swish LA recently
00:46:49.280
changed theirs from those black plastic to paper cardboard. So I'm really, thank you, Swish LA.
00:46:53.840
I'll order a quarter chicken dinner right after this. I think that's great. Yeah. Or half chicken. And
00:46:58.960
I think we should move on. Oh, that was a lot. I'm still fired up. But yeah,
00:47:03.120
let's move on because we got a lot more to talk about. And yeah. And by the way, just to just to
00:47:09.040
finish, we are not experts on this topic, but I just would challenge you to look into it and do some
00:47:13.920
research because it's out there. And we love you. Bye. Yeah. Stay fertile, guys. And now for an ad read.

00:48:22.400
going to talk about the trends. We will. Okay. We're going to do a little. Let's do some fashion first.
00:48:26.480
Let's do a segway, a fashion segway. This is relevant. This will be a nice, healthy segway.
00:48:31.520
The meaty segway. So Vogue approved author reveals why all straight women are suddenly
00:48:36.000
dressing like lesbians. It's because they want to feel comfortable and powerful.
00:48:41.440
That doesn't necessarily mean you're a lesbian. Yeah. And like, let's scroll down and look at some
00:48:46.160
of the pictures here because it's like these women aren't dressed like Ellen. Yeah. They look super
00:48:50.960
cute. You can still tell. It's just oversized blazers. Yeah. Like, they look amazing. Yeah.
00:48:55.280
Like, they look like women. Yeah. That's just, they look like. That's just a blazer. It's sexy. Yeah.
00:48:59.280
It's, it's, it's flattering. Like, let's not, let's just let women dress comfy and like feel. Yeah.
00:49:04.240
Like oversized blazers. That's super cute. It's cute. Also, it reminds me of the 80s power suit,
00:49:08.000
which is like a huge thing with like the blown out hair and like. Yeah. I'd love, uh, I don't have the money
00:49:13.680
for it. But if I did, I would be wearing matching blazers and pants every day with like a little
00:49:18.800
bralette underneath. Oh my God. It's so cute with the right shoes. Like it's, and so I just think
00:49:23.520
this Vogue editor is an idiot. They're just looking for stuff to talk about. Yes. Um, speaking of
00:49:28.480
someone who is, I don't even know how to segue this, the Ukrainian transgender man who conveniently
00:49:37.200
identified as a woman to escape Russia's invasion. Yeah. So, okay. I had to, I got confused. So it was a
00:49:42.560
naturally born woman who transitioned to be a man. Um, she had not had top surgery. No. So bottom.
00:49:50.320
Sure. Yeah. Yeah. Um, so when Russia was invading Ukraine, she tried to escape the, um, being, um,
00:49:59.360
what's it called? We don't know cause we're women. The draft. The draft. We're like, what's that thing?
00:50:04.480
Sorry. It's drafty in here. Yeah. Um, so she tried to escape and she did. She successfully dodged
00:50:09.040
the draft by reverting back to a female identity using her old ID card, which was a female ID card
00:50:16.400
and escaping with her mother. She put on nail polish. She wore her mother's top, which was girly.
00:50:21.280
And she tried to speak in a more girly voice. She whispered. Yeah. So, so basically you can change
00:50:26.240
your gender when it's convenient for you. But if I misgender you, I can go to prison. Yeah.
00:50:30.640
That's such a good point. Like what the hell? I'm pretty sure that, um,
00:50:33.520
Bill Burr had a really funny joke about this where it's like, why do men get paid more than women?
00:50:37.200
It's like, because when the boat starts sinking, who gets to get off on the lifeboats? Like women.
00:50:42.160
And I will take that. Yes. And so I'm based on this example. I'm assuming that this
00:50:47.200
individual here would also be getting on those lifeboats in that. No, I'm a man. I've always been
00:50:52.400
a man. I'll go down with the ship. Yeah. No, hand me my AK-47. I'm going to defend my country. Nope. Yeah. Biology must
00:50:59.280
matter. Eh? Um, also interesting to note, uh, everyone is trans. Everyone? Everyone's trans.
00:51:05.760
Oh. Washington Post floats bizarre defense of biologically male swimmer.
00:51:09.760
Um, do you mind if I just read this quote? Please do. I think you're really going to be edified
00:51:15.760
by this quote. So the author is Sally Jenkins. I hate to tell you, but in a way everyone is trans.
00:51:21.600
Mm-hmm. As writer T. Cooper observed, all of us in life's competitive arena are on the way to becoming
00:51:27.200
someone profoundly different than we were. And keeping score is just a way to track the arc
00:51:31.840
of a person from youth to prime to past it. What? If you subtract the aim of becomingness from
00:51:37.680
competition just because you're afraid of Leah Thomas and make it strictly about the chance to
00:51:41.920
win a prize, then you might as well go to an amusement park and shoot a squirt gun at a clown face
00:51:46.720
because it will have about as much meaning. Well, first of all, that's a really fun activity. Yeah.
00:51:54.800
And you can win some cool prizes. You want to win. You want to shoot the clown. But you want to win.
00:51:59.680
Yeah. You want to win. Um, there's a lot there. Um, what the heck is the act of becoming this?
00:52:06.560
What did she say? That's, that's what you, it's you becoming, you're becoming. Okay.
00:52:10.560
What? I don't know. So technically a transgender person is not transgender because they're becoming,
00:52:16.800
they're becoming something just like anyone, regardless of their gender, gender identity,
00:52:21.440
we're all constantly evolving and in flux. So that's her argument. So if I'm like, okay,
00:52:25.920
well now I'm trans, it's like, well, you're trans trans because you could change in the future.
00:52:31.760
And I'm trans trans trans. So basically you're, if you're trans, you're not trans. Yeah.
00:52:35.280
And what she said, and she's just saying we're all evolving. So everyone's trans. It's like,
00:52:39.920
okay, so then trans people are not trans. They're trans. We're not, no one's trans.
00:52:46.160
What if they evolve into being their original gender later on? Like, that's okay. But then
00:52:50.480
also we had to give men, women's gold medals in the meantime during the transition.
00:52:55.440
And they called us bleeders in the meantime. It's so confusing.
00:52:58.320
She also claims that the science regarding whether biological males have a physical advantage over
00:53:03.120
women remains unsettled. She said bone density doesn't matter. Oh my gosh. You know, I don't,
00:53:10.160
there's a few things I hate more than this, the saying, the science is settled. We've heard that
00:53:15.680
a lot through the pandemic. The science is literally never. The science is never settled.
00:53:19.440
Let's not say the science is settled on bone density. However, it's really looking like it
00:53:25.200
matters. Like we have different hip angles so that women can give birth. Our bones are larger,
00:53:30.800
long, lung size, lung capacity, which is really important for swimming. One might say muscle
00:53:36.560
density. Uh, the size of the brain is also different. Women have smaller, more compact brains,
00:53:42.400
meaning that our synapses fire faster and we are able to come to conclusions faster. And like,
00:53:46.960
you notice that. Do you ever notice that where like your husband will be doing something? You're
00:53:50.000
like, I already thought of that like, yeah, six seconds ago. Like, we're basically like psychics.
00:53:54.560
Yeah. We, we, but men have larger brains. And so yes, sometimes they can be slower,
00:53:59.440
but they're also like capable of other things that women are not. Like these are just facts and
00:54:03.920
they're beautiful biological differences that should be celebrated, but no. So yeah. Um,
00:54:10.240
should we blitz? Yeah, let's blitz. Let's have some fun. Yeah. We've had a lot of heavy topics
00:54:17.120
and thank you for staying with us. We're going to have some fun now. Yes. It's going to be,
00:54:21.760
I mean, who knows? It could be devastating. Yeah. We'll see. We'll see. Um, all right.
00:54:25.840
First blitz. You want to start? Yes. Let's do it. Pull up our first article. Would you please?
00:54:30.560
Mother 34 is left red faced after drunkenly ordering an Uber X to Ukraine to help out.
00:54:36.080
Thankfully the $4,700, sorry, a hundred pound payment bounced because of insufficient funds in
00:54:42.160
her account. So was, was Uber literally willing to drive from the UK to the Ukraine? Yeah. I,
00:54:48.880
I'm so confused. Like what was, what was her point there? She was going to send from the UK and Uber
00:54:53.920
to the Ukraine? Like she was going to drive herself. You can't even try. I guess there's a
00:54:57.360
ferry. There is ocean though. Yeah. There's ocean. There's ocean. It would be a really long drive.
00:55:01.600
Yeah. And they were, Uber was willing to do it. Like that's what I don't understand.
00:55:05.680
Yeah. The app isn't like, no, this is a million miles. Yeah. Like you're going through like nine
00:55:10.960
countries to get there. And you're crossing an ocean, but we'll do it for the money. I guess it's
00:55:15.120
tough times financially. Yeah. Um, young fitness pro shares what life is like married to a porn star
00:55:22.240
and sex coach who sleeps with different women every week and how she manages her jealousy.
00:55:27.280
Um, she says that she feels very comfortable with his line of work. So long as he's getting
00:55:32.800
regular STI checks and is wearing a condom where possible. Oh, not always. It should be always.
00:55:40.480
Yeah, girl. This is a disaster. I feel like that guy convinced her that this is a really good idea
00:55:45.440
for her. And she's like, yeah, it makes sense. He wears a condom when possible. Yeah. No girl,
00:55:51.120
this is a disaster. I don't usually suggest people get divorced. I, I, my note was Jesus come back.
00:55:59.920
That is help us help. Okay. Moving on. Next is influencer 22, who was left scarred and
00:56:06.480
temporarily blind after tattooing freckles on her face shocks followers by going under the needle
00:56:11.760
again to have her lips inked with permanent makeup. Girl, learn from your mistakes. Oh my god.
00:56:17.120
First of all, getting freckles tattooed is so, so insulting to gingers. Yeah. Come on. It's,
00:56:23.520
it's silly. You don't need that. You can just draw them on. It takes like two seconds if you really
00:56:27.200
want, if you really, really want. Like when freckles aren't in vogue, you're going to be putting makeup
00:56:31.600
on to cover them. Yeah. Wait, freckles? They were for a bit. They were. I remember people were
00:56:36.800
doing like makeup tutorials of like how to splatter your face with like fake freckles. And it's like,
00:56:40.480
cute. So as soon as you sweat, you're going to look great. You're going to have tears. Yeah.
00:56:45.040
It's going to look cute. Let's just let people have freckles who have freckles is my point.
00:56:48.960
And also you're 22. Stop getting, oh my gosh, stop getting like procedures done. Okay. Your face is like
00:56:54.960
fine. It's probably better than fine. It's probably perfect. And you're ruining yourself. Okay.
00:56:59.200
So this is the best one. Dog frantically tries to eat magazine pics of food in hilarious video. Can
00:57:03.840
we, if you scroll down, can we play the video? It's hilarious. It's so cute. It kind of makes me
00:57:08.160
sad because I want him to eat. I know he's so hungry. He deserves the food. Yeah.
00:57:15.520
It looks pretty real. It looks so real. Oh my God. What is that? A dumpling? He's cute. Oh,
00:57:20.320
he's cute. He's so cute. He's so frantic. Somebody feed that little boy. He's clearly hungry.
00:57:26.080
That was like some high def food though. So I don't blame him. I probably would have tried to
00:57:29.200
take a bite as well. Yeah. I, I, I think so too. I, it made me hungry. So next one.
00:57:37.120
What do we have? Sorry. My papers. No, you're good. Is it this one? Yeah. Okay. So next blitz.
00:57:42.880
All my relationships have ended horribly. Should I change my ways? Yes.
00:57:47.440
Yes. Mm-hmm. That's, I think that's it. I think we nailed it. We nailed that. Um,
00:57:52.080
why everyone, you know, suddenly has main character syndrome? Like what else would you have? Yeah. Are
00:57:57.440
you, you're the main character in your life? Like, isn't life a movie? Are you not the main
00:58:01.200
character in your own life? Yeah. Like I'm starring in the movie of my life. Yeah. I, I genuinely don't
00:58:06.080
believe anyone else has a brain or a mind. Like I'm a solifist. So I believe I'm the only sentient
00:58:10.320
mind in the universe. She's also auto-sexual. Yeah. Auto-sexual. Um, but you know, unless you're
00:58:14.720
like a narcissist, it's okay to think, Hey, this is my life and I'm living it. You know,
00:58:19.600
you should be the main character. Yeah. You don't want to be a narcissist about it. No,
00:58:22.800
but healthy balance. Yeah. As with any, get a grip people. All right. AOC's links of fossil fuel
00:58:29.520
extraction to the murder of indigenous women. Why it doesn't work. Well, this is daily wire. So I'm sure
00:58:35.920
that, uh, Ben Shapiro or whoever wrote that really nailed it. Yeah. So it is important to note that
00:58:42.000
there are a lot of these environmental protesters have been extremely, extremely violent in their
00:58:46.720
protests. So who's the violent one, AOC? Is it these fossil fuel companies or is it the, uh,
00:58:52.560
progressive people who are protesting them? Well, there was, um, some vandalism done on a
00:58:57.840
construction site. It was actually during the truckers convoy protest when the emergency act,
00:59:03.600
emergencies act was, um, invoked to protect people from the mean old truckers. But at the same time
00:59:10.800
in British Columbia, a group of, I believe it was Aboriginal protesters went with, with, uh,
00:59:15.680
sledgehammers and they smashed up a bunch of, uh, construction equipment. Now they weren't violent
00:59:22.400
towards humans, but can you even imagine if they, if truckers had sledgehammers and smashed a mailbox
00:59:28.640
of any kind or anything, like anything was smashed, it would have been game over.
00:59:32.960
There would have been peppers. Well, there already was peaceful protesters. Imagine if they had
00:59:36.960
actually made any mistakes. Yeah. No, it's a great point. I don't know what AOC is on about,
00:59:40.960
but she's probably wrong. Yeah. She's typically wrong. You look cute though. Um, I moved into my
00:59:45.520
work cubicle to get free rent, but got busted and fired. Well, you know, maybe you shouldn't have
00:59:50.400
advertised it on Tik TOK. You know what happened? Yes. He posted two videos on Tik TOK. It's like,
00:59:56.640
you gotta, if you're going to do it, like you gotta be a little more sly. That's the thing. I love these
01:00:00.560
people who post themselves like breaking the law. And then it's like, then they were caught because
01:00:03.840
they posted it on Tik TOK and video, like don't videotape your crimes. Yeah. It makes it harder
01:00:08.400
to solve them. It's like rule number one of being a criminal. Also, these companies pay you so little
01:00:12.400
that they actually like, don't leave you with any other option. Yeah. That's a good point. So if there's
01:00:16.800
a shower there, like, but you know, you could try to get a new job, a new job, you could ask for a raise,
01:00:21.280
ask for a raise, you know, start there and then use a part-time work on Fiverr. Yeah. That's okay.
01:00:27.520
Next one. This, this is why wearing a mask makes you hotter. New study. I'm going to ask you a
01:00:34.640
question right now. We'll do our own study. Do masks make people hotter? Well, I was thinking
01:00:39.040
about this. Maybe people think this because it's covering up your ugly face. That's the only thing
01:00:45.520
I can think of. Yeah. Yeah. Anonymity. Yeah. You're like, oh, maybe he's hot. He takes it off
01:00:49.440
and you're like, it's Pete Davidson. He's got a jangle tooth. Yeah. No, I'm going to just say,
01:00:57.120
according to our study of two. No, they don't. So that's a new study for you. They do not.
01:01:02.640
And the science is settled. The science is settled.
01:01:06.800
Grammys 2022 host Trevor Noah says award shows can be political, but should they? Like, should they,
01:01:13.520
Trevor and also never trust anyone who has two first names? Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. He's,
01:01:17.920
he's actually becoming like more base, which is funny because he's just saying things that
01:01:21.760
like centrist slash conservatives have been saying for years and people are now like, oh yeah,
01:01:26.800
he makes some good points. And it's like, oh, almost like we were all called Nazis for saying
01:01:30.240
that five years ago. But Trevor Noah is now saying it also. No, they should not be political. People
01:01:35.040
are watching for entertainment. Not me. Because I, you know, I was going to say have a life.
01:01:40.960
She does. That's a bit of a stretch, but I have better things to do. Like
01:01:44.400
play with my dog's ears. They're very silky. They're, it's a cute dog. I'd literally rather
01:01:48.800
watch my dog's ears flop in the wind than watch the Grammys. Plus we can just look at pictures
01:01:53.120
of their dresses later. Yeah. We, and we will. Yeah. And we will show them on this show.
01:01:57.600
Okay. Last but not least, Pete Davidson, Davidson drops out of Jeff Bezos. Okay. Again,
01:02:03.520
Pete Davidson drops out of Jeff Bezos's blue origin space flight. Okay. Well, Pete, he doesn't want
01:02:10.000
to leave that big old warm bosom of Kim Kardashian. I think so too. I think maybe he's scared she'll
01:02:14.560
have moved on when he returns. She's like, are you still in orbit? Because I had dinner
01:02:20.240
Reza's. I guess I'll go with Kanye. Kanye bought me like a really expensive coat. So I had to go back
01:02:26.240
with him. Yeah. I'd say yes to that. And like, maybe he thinks that, um, Kanye has so much like
01:02:30.640
power that he can just be like, send it out of orbit. Like his, his shuttle's going to go like,
01:02:35.920
phew. Bye, Pete. Maybe he's friends with Elon. Maybe. Elon's like at home. Yeah. He's like,
01:02:39.760
his, he, people think he's playing video games, but he's like controlling the space. Yeah. And it's
01:02:43.200
like, bye, Pete. Bye. Oh, that means there's an opening at SNL though, if he gets lost in space.
01:02:48.720
We are available. We're a duo. Yes. We will not work alone. No. But I will secretly work alone. I will
01:02:55.440
send her on Jeff Bezos. I will destroy her career. You're contractually obliged
01:03:00.560
to me. No. Um, all right, folks, that was the show. Thank you so much for listening. This show
