Ryan Reynolds mocks celebrities, NASA suspends the moon shuttle, and Britney Spears calls for a socialist revolution. Plus, a new segment called "Super Chat" where we are ragging on celebrities for being out of touch.
00:00:59.000The podcast after it's live, you can go on iTunes, you can get it free of charge.
00:01:03.000But then we realized if we're going to try and get this hosted on either other platform, it doesn't make sense to like gate it through membership.
00:01:08.000So if you want to support the channel, you can still join, become a member, but we're going to post the unlisted full stream for free for everybody in the community section.
00:01:16.000And my apologies to everybody if you joined because you were hoping to get like premium access, but we decided
00:01:22.000It just I don't know. I just felt like it didn't make sense And we've had so many people hitting us up saying please
00:01:28.000get on itunes and spotify. Yeah and google so I was like There's no way we can gate that
00:01:47.000So the stories for today, just to give you a quick rundown for those that are just tuning in, we got Ryan Reynolds mocking celebrities and Ryan Reynolds is a national treasure, even though he's Canadian.
00:03:51.000That's why I think whenever I see any one of these celebrities post their stupid messages... We relate to you.
00:03:59.000No, it's like they think they're better than you.
00:04:02.000And look, I'm not trying to imply that celebrities are literally sitting there like smoking cigars going like, hmm, what a bunch of morons.
00:04:09.000But they're actually like, you know, they think of... Here's how I feel.
00:04:13.000These celebrities view the rest of people as moronic children, like dumb kids.
00:04:19.000And so they're like, wouldn't it be so cool?
00:04:21.000Everyone would love it if we all sang together and did the celebrity thing.
00:04:24.000And so we did rag on them for singing that cursed song, the cursed version of Imagine.
00:05:01.000It was this cursed commercial where this woman comes home and her husband buys her the Peloton bike, which is an exercise bicycle with the iPad in it, basically.
00:05:13.000And it was this really awful commercial.
00:05:15.000So it goes viral with everyone ragging on it.
00:05:16.000Ryan Reynolds immediately calls up her agent or whatever and says, I wanted to do a commercial for my gin company and the commercial was just slowly zooming up from her face with this look on her face where she's like, kind of just like, because she's being ragged on.
00:05:31.000And her friends are like, you're safe here.
00:05:33.000And then she like chugs her gin and tonic or whatever.
00:05:36.000And then the other woman was like, OK, and she slides her over another one.
00:05:40.000So like Ryan Reynolds, this dude's a legit genius.
00:05:43.000I don't use the word genius to mean he's a mathematical whiz or a scientist.
00:06:55.000Think about how people are watching us and we do this routinely and you can see the set we have, we've put work into it.
00:07:04.000Once they lose access to the machine, the network, like Trevor Noah is just sitting in front of his shelf that he didn't even, like what did he do?
00:08:08.000I used to do full-length documentary stuff, and then when I would need to do... So I've been pitching to all these big companies, like, you need to hybridize.
00:08:15.000You need to be able to produce on-the-fly-at-home home studios.
00:13:07.000And he said, I think it was him who said this, that the, uh, the gun control arguments are the equivalent of, like, saying have the maid do it.
00:13:15.000Or the self-defense equivalent of saying have the maid do it.
00:13:17.000People who live in, like, cities with access to resources and police departments, things that, you know, rural folk don't have.
00:13:23.000You end up, well, so I don't, I don't want to go off on a tangent, but Looking at the stuff of, like, Madonna, calling it the Great Equalizer, when she's so far removed from reality and has no idea what regular people deal with, but this is what's scary.
00:13:37.000These people with tons of money think they know, and then they go out and invest and spend that money on politics to make things happen that have no real bearing on, like, regular people.
00:13:46.000I'm pretty sure I saw a tweet that Madonna actually did some music video in her house with just a phone.
00:14:00.000Someone was recording her with some sort of light and she was just singing She's lost it.
00:14:17.000So, you know, for those that may have missed it, basically the point I made, when you're
00:14:20.000a little kid and everyone in the world is telling you you're the best and you're famous
00:14:25.000and you're a star and they love you, it feels like that's normal.
00:14:28.000And when you start from that position, as you grow up, you're trying to improve and do better, but you can't do better than world famous as one of these child actors or actresses.
00:17:02.000You take away their team, and then they're hollow shells.
00:17:06.000Dude, there was this really viral video from like 10 years ago where they were like, how to make a pop star, and they basically just took beautiful women that couldn't sing, auto-tuned everything, and they show you exactly how they do it, and at the end they made like a snippet of like a pop star music video.
00:18:00.000If you were to ask me really, I think that's an issue of if you work hard enough and you, and you, and you, you keep digging, you know, you'll, you'll get to where you need to go.
00:20:18.000Yeah, you really only need to go to the hospital if you start getting the shortness of breath.
00:20:22.000I don't remember the stuff that forms in your lungs, but that's what's causing you not to be able to breathe, and that's when it becomes a problem.
00:20:28.000That's when you need to go to the hospital.
00:20:55.000I posted a picture of my my skateboard when I was about to drop in and I was a little showing off a little bit like this is what I'm doing right now.
00:21:02.000You're you are a out of touch celebrity.
00:22:31.000and you're like a guy like you're wearing you're doing nothing to be non-binary like you can't just he kind of looks like the chubby floorbow Justin Timberlake in these pictures He kind of does, yeah.
00:22:48.000Look, man, there's a difference between someone who's actually trans, you know, or is experiencing dysphoria or something, and you're asking for simple respect.
00:22:57.000It's another thing if you're just one of these trendy dudes jumping on the bandwagon.
00:23:01.000Yeah, that you're just like, oh, by the way, from now on, you have to call me that.
00:25:49.000Kylie Jenner revealed that staying in the house for months while she was pregnant, which is totally relatable, prepared her for the quarantine.
00:26:44.000It was on Twitter when people are talking about the coronavirus and the top was Grandpa, what did you do during the great coronavirus pandemic?
00:26:50.000And he said, I had a very dangerous job.
00:26:52.000I was a tail gunner for a Charmin shipping truck.
00:27:45.000When we went to the store, and I felt like a king moseying on through the bean aisle with no obstruction in sight and beans galore, and we loaded up our cart with all of the variety of beans.
00:29:30.000But if you're a communist and you say something dumb, I will especially come out to make fun of you.
00:29:36.000If you combine all of those things and you're a celebrity, she's not really a communist, that's being mean, but she is going pretty commie, I guess.
00:29:46.000You know, look, already I can hear the screaming hordes of lefties being like, they're not real communists.
00:29:51.000Well, I know they're not real communists.
00:30:18.000Instead of just give me more, she wants to give everyone more.
00:30:22.000Comrade Britney Spears shared an Instagram post Monday calling for wealth redistribution and a general strike either during or following the coronavirus pandemic.
00:31:59.000They say, the singer reposted the text originally shared by user Mimizu, which read in part, We will feed each other, redistribute wealth, strike.
00:32:06.000We will understand our own importance and the places we must stay.
00:32:09.000Spears38 captioned the post, Communion goes beyond walls.
00:33:07.000That right now, so I don't know where we're at so far, maybe they agreed on a bill or something, they voted on it.
00:33:12.000I mean, I'm sure the people in the comments will probably clarify for us.
00:33:15.000But for a week, the Republicans were working on a bill, and apparently they negotiated it, and then at the last minute when it came to vote, the Democrats, you know, struck it down.
00:33:24.000And then they came back with this bill, and here's what really bothers me.
00:33:28.000All of these news outlets, they reported on it as though the Democrats want to give you $3,000 a month, but the Republicans only want to give you $1,200 one time.
00:33:37.000And I'm like, that's not the complaint from the Republicans.
00:33:40.000The complaint is that in the middle of it is this.
00:33:43.000We want to hug and love everyone and communism and then we're going to be great friends for the rest of our lives and strike and make a bunch of money and give it away.
00:33:50.000So it's like it's it's it's they're saying the quiet part and that's exactly what this post you know it's like it it comes it starts off with people being like oh yeah that's so great and then right in the middle and communism.
00:34:28.000I'll tell you exactly what's happening with these celebrities, with social media.
00:34:32.000They're chasing each other off a cliff, constantly one-upping each other, trying to be the next shockwave.
00:34:39.000I'll just say, all of these celebrities, all of their posts, and especially Britney Spears's, it's the equivalent of licking a toilet seat.
00:35:03.000So you get someone like Britney Spears, and she's watching everyone say stuff, so then she jumps in but has to one-up everything that's been said before.
00:35:12.000And then someone sees her, her 23 million followers, and so they have to start from where she is and one-up her.
00:35:19.000Now we're at the point where celebrities are like, redistribute wealth!
00:36:06.000Many people might not know this, but Punk Rock Band, the Offspring, have a song from their self-titled album, and I can't say the name of that song, and they actually got rid of it.
00:36:33.000It's not just they're one-upping each other, it's that the people who have no lives Like you've got these really weird socialist people. They're
00:36:41.000obviously not working It's probably why they're socialists or there's some kind
00:36:44.000of correlation and so the thing on the Internet's spamming away and saying nonsensical garbage
00:36:48.000Yeah, so, you know you tweet more you're more likely to be seen right?
00:36:52.000So all of a sudden people like Brittany to go on Twitter and what do they see?
00:36:55.000Waves and waves of socialists because those are the ones who have no jobs who spend all their time on the internet
00:37:01.000Then she and all these other celebrities are like, that's what people like!
00:38:36.000I'll bring this up because we're creating a path here.
00:38:41.000From Britney Spears as being a communist into the law, when these people go on social media and say this stupid trash, and then other people hear it, they then go demand it, and politicians see it, and then go, you got it!
00:39:59.000News organizations want to hire journalists with lots of followers, because their gamble is if you write a story and you get a bunch of followers, you'll tweet it out, it'll get traffic, we'll make money.
00:42:37.000Listen, I don't care what your politics are.
00:42:39.000I reached out to a progressive guy I know and I said, how do you justify a 1,404 page bill when we need an emergency relief package right now?
00:45:18.000I played co-op, some co-op like shooting games with a couple buddies of mine and it is so fun to be in a virtual world seeing your buddy and we're like Hey, that's you!
00:45:27.000We're like pointing our guns at each other like, yeah, shooting in the air.
00:47:40.000Well, I don't know what the latest chips are, but there is potentially a risk if you have to get an MRI or something, and you've got a metal, you know, embedded under your skin.
00:47:55.000There have been people who have done it, but the problem is, you know, early on, there was this big push for people to get chips implanted in their hands, like, between their thumb and their index finger.
00:52:23.000But I bring this up because if you do have story ideas, like Adam was mentioning, people are asking about Hantavirus, you can tweet at him and send him messages and then, you know, we will... Yeah, hit me up.
00:55:02.000Student of History says, celebrities are macabre marionettes, and when you cut the strings, you see the lack of anything with the standard they're given.
01:00:54.000That's why they call regular conservatives far right, even though they're regular conservatives who are like center right for the past 30 years.
01:01:36.000Now it's like, how insane was it when Bernie on the debate stage was talking about giving non-citizens healthcare at a time when we're desperate to save our ICU beds?
01:03:53.000Juan Garza says, maybe the reason Trump is doing so well now is because people are actually listening to him instead of edited media versions.
01:03:59.000Well, they still are listening to that, but what I think is happening is the narrative is becoming so condensed because so much is changing so fast.
01:04:05.000Well, and people aren't working, so they actually have the time to watch him themselves.
01:04:10.000And they're sitting there listening to him and they're going, oh.
01:04:12.000And then they're turning and watching the news and going, But I saw what he said, and that's not what he said.
01:04:27.000The media would be like, today, in the news, the sky is blue.
01:04:30.000And then a couple weeks go by, and Trump will be at, like, an event, and he'll be like, it's really incredible, the sky is blue, I don't know if you've heard this.
01:05:35.000But people have all the time in the world right now because they're not working, so it's like blaringly obvious to everybody what's going on.
01:05:41.000Yeah, but there's still people who live in bubbles.
01:07:05.000So I understand the criticism that, you know, the Performing Arts Center, like, you know, JFK Performing Arts Center, whatever, is not critical infrastructure.
01:07:12.000It's like, yeah, but dude, come on, man.
01:07:13.000If someone's got a job and they're out of work right now, or they're not getting paid, I understand a bailout to any industry that pays staff.
01:07:20.000I guess they would deserve a bailout before all the banks do.
01:07:22.000Mandating that big companies have racial diversity quotas, increase their base pay rate to like $15 an hour, and forgiving student loan debt.
01:07:47.000So their argument was, there's no restrictions on any of these corporations, so we're gonna make them.
01:07:51.000If you get money, you have to give it to brown people.
01:07:55.000Like, part of it was that these companies have to increase their board to have more women and racially diverse, you know, non-white people.
01:08:34.000ZZ says, in my town, I could find everything from toilet paper to giant bags of rice and beans and cleansers, but cans of biscuit dough was nowhere to be found.
01:09:56.000So I could be misremembering a lot of it, but my general understanding is that social security numbers were like a product of the Great Depression or something.
01:10:03.000Like people didn't used to have a register with the government, a number.
01:10:06.000And so this dude was basically telling me that we don't care.
01:10:08.000To him it was like a nightmare scenario where the government was like, you are now getting numbered.
01:11:13.000Danon S says, fun fact, in ancient Rome, actors were considered low in society and weren't even allowed to testify in court because they were considered professional liars.
01:12:58.000And if we turn the camera, it's like... A basement.
01:13:01.000And the thing is, we have to go get stuff, and I don't know if you're paying attention, but there's this apocalypse, coronavirus going around.
01:13:18.000Angry Bellsprout says, you see Tim's waifu on the Hill YouTube channel claim current unemployment is a failure of the free market and why we need communism immediately to keep society functioning.
01:13:27.000Crystal Ball's brain is mush, they say.
01:14:00.000So this is the Hill TV's Rising show, and I don't agree with either of them on most things, but they're honest people who do a good show.
01:14:08.000So, by all means, you could have bad opinions.
01:14:11.000I know a lot of people with bad opinions, but as long as you're honest and you don't have a conversation about those opinions, you're welcome.
01:14:16.000Yeah, it's boring to agree on everything.
01:14:36.000Former Ghost Funeral Service says, thank you, Tim, for your efforts in news reporting.
01:14:40.000Thanks to you, I opened the eyes of several of my friends to hypocrisy and lies in the news and the dangers of the COVID-19 to better prep for it.
01:14:59.000I mean, I don't think anyone should be drafted, but, I mean... Good take.
01:15:04.000If there's gonna be a draft, I mean, I would fight if it was a good enough reason and I was pulled in, but... We can talk about the draft in general first.
01:15:19.000Women should be eligible for the draft, Commission recommends.
01:15:23.000The 11-member Commissioners' report was briefed to the Pentagon on Monday and will be presented to the White House and Congressional staffers Tuesday.
01:15:34.000This is a necessary and fair step making it possible to draw on the talent of a unified nation in the time of national emergency, the Commissioners wrote in the 255-page report obtained by Politico.
01:15:46.000The report does not require action, but its recommendations...
01:15:50.000He paved the way for lawmakers to move to include women in the draft more than 100 years after Congress passed the Military Selective Service Act in 1917.
01:15:59.000While no one has been conscripted into the U.S.
01:16:01.000military in more than 40 years, the act requires all American men to register for the draft when they turn 18.
01:16:08.000Men who fail to register can be fined, imprisoned, and denied services such as federal student loans.
01:16:13.000The Pentagon spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
01:16:17.000So they say this comes five years after Defense Secretary Ash Carter formally rescinded the Pentagon's combat exclusion policy that had prevented women from serving in combat roles.
01:16:27.000Today, more than 224,000 women serve on active duty, and at least 30 women completed the U.S.
01:16:33.000Army Ranger School as of August 2019, according to the report.
01:16:36.000My first question is, did they change the rules to make it easier for the women to pass?
01:17:10.000So I've reported in a few major urban conflict areas, like I was in Egypt during the revolution.
01:17:16.000And I want to know, the people who are with me, Know how to take care of themselves?
01:17:21.000It's not about me being more prepared than you, you being more prepared than me, it's about both of us understanding what's going on.
01:17:28.000Because I've been sent to places in conflict where the people with me had no idea how to respond to active gunfire or anything like that, and then I have to stick my neck out and carry them.
01:17:39.000It's like, dude, if a fire breaks out, can you get out of the building?
01:17:55.000And the people with you also can walk and run like regular people.
01:17:58.000If they put you in with somebody who's in a wheelchair, you'd be like, listen man, I got no beef against you for being in the wheelchair, but now I literally have to pick you up and carry you and it risks both of our lives.
01:18:58.000And I've met a lot of people, and I hear a lot of the same stories, that the women who join have, like, although the standards might be there on paper, they're not practically applied.
01:20:34.000The liberal view would be, I don't care who's in combat so long as they can pass the test.
01:20:39.000The modern leftist view is, if women can't pass the test, the test is sexist, and it needs to be made easier so we get 50% women and 50% men.
01:20:48.000I think with all things, you need to earn your keep, and earn your way in.
01:21:12.000Check it out, the article says, Today the public's opinion on including women in the draft is mixed, with 53% supporting the change and 38% opposing it in a 2017 survey cited by the commission.
01:21:24.000The commission heard from many people who fervently believed women should not be required to register for the draft.
01:21:29.000Some expressed concerns that including women would damage their ability to perform their unique status in society as wives, mothers, and caregivers.
01:21:37.000Others raised concerns over the possible risks to women posed by combat roles, saying women are more likely to be injured in training.
01:22:18.000Like, and you, you were gonna be on a team with a bunch of women versus a team of a bunch of guys, like, I think we can make a really easy bet as to which team's gonna win.
01:22:25.000And I'm not trying to be mean, it's just reality.
01:22:27.000The guys are more likely to be taller, more fast-switch muscle, just a fact.
01:23:37.000Here we go, they say, experts argue that allowing women to participate in the draft will enable the military access to a wider talent pool, as well as allow women to share in a fundamental civil obligation.
01:23:51.000It's a good thing that you're going to be forced to join the army.
01:23:56.000It's insulting to suggest America's mothers and wives and daughters couldn't contribute, whether the need were rebuilding levees after a natural disaster or repelling an invasion from our shores.
01:25:05.000This is an idea I had, and I would love to actually have one of these evolutionary biologists or psychologists chime in and correct me if I'm wrong.
01:25:22.000I'll just give a quick bit of context for those who aren't familiar with the Fallout game series.
01:25:26.000Nuclear annihilation wipes out civilization, and there are a bunch of vaults built by a company called Vault-Tec.
01:25:32.000It turns out many of them are actually experiments, but everyone hides in these shelters when the nukes go off.
01:25:37.000Vault 68 and Vault 69 were vaults where there was 99 men and 1 woman, or 99 women and 1 man.
01:25:46.000And so, you know, I was thinking about what would really happen in a circumstance like that, and one thing is true.
01:25:52.000If you have a civilization, if you have a society, or like a tribe, and there's 100 men and 100 women, and 99 women die, you're likely going to collapse.
01:26:03.000Because you can have, what, one kid in 9 months?
01:28:24.000So we're tough, and we also have coalition with European countries, and to whatever extent Canada is part of our coalition, I don't know.
01:28:35.000But you know, I think there's a lot more people who are more interested in global stability, but China wants to be a bigger power, and they've been pushing and stealing and stripping things away, and our crony politicians have been ponying up whatever they've asked for.
01:28:57.000Like, theoretically, we're facing a serious threat, and if it got really bad to the point where we saw, like, 20 or 30% mortality, we'd all probably be conscripted to some degree.
01:29:21.000Like if we were facing like a serious threat, they would probably go to people like me and like Joe Rogan and be like, if you say this, we'll shut you down.
01:31:16.000He's got a bunch of newspapers from the 1800s.
01:31:19.000And one of them, I was reading a story about a guy who was staying outside of a bar smoking, and another guy just pointed, uh, like a pistol in his chest and pulled the trigger.
01:31:50.000And that still might happen today, but we've, like, it's just... I mean, it's probably more numerous because there's more people.
01:31:58.000But it's crazy to me to think back, like, 200 years ago, you could be walking down a dirt path and someone could be like, I'm gonna take your stuff.
01:32:34.000Yeah, there's an article going on, or like a meme, I think, that's just like, there's silence from all the different talking points that all these screamers on Twitter and all the different places, those like, we haven't heard anything about any of these issues.
01:33:03.000There was a story that said like trans-affirming surgeries, or it's like the coronavirus epidemic shows how society views trans-affirming surgeries as like cosmetic and you know or something like that.
01:33:14.000And it was like, from the perspective that these people's lives will be saved by these surgeries,
01:33:18.000it's like, I mean, yes, but they can wait.
01:37:33.000So this is a thing that supposedly the celebrities take to keep them young, and there's a theory right now that they're going crazy because they don't have access to it.
01:37:43.000No, it's a real thing, but they're saying that it's used as like the blood of the virgins or whatever, the blood of the young people, or I don't freaking know.
01:37:52.000Oh, is that the thing where they like eat pituitary glands or something?
01:39:19.000Kyle Miller says, What is your definition of what a conservative is, Tim?
01:39:23.000It seems like the definition of conservative has changed over time.
01:39:26.000I considered myself a liberal long ago but now I feel dejected by the left.
01:39:30.000Yeah, there is an actual breakdown in the political compass of what conservative is.
01:39:35.000It tends to be center-right, and liberal tends to be center-left, just underneath the line between the libertarian quadrant and the authoritarian quadrant.
01:39:43.000So liberals lean towards freedom, but they still believe in a decent amount of authority for the state, but not so much.
01:39:49.000And they lean left towards cooperative markets instead of competitive markets, which would be like a free market versus socialism.
01:39:56.000So, most Americans are center-left or center-right, and America as a whole leans slightly center-right from most people.
01:40:05.000We now have this big burgeoning class of far-leftists, socialists, communists, tankies, all this stuff, and they view everyone as far-right.
01:40:18.000If you move that far left, then everything's far right of you.
01:40:20.000Because the compass is defined at... You could argue that their definition is cultural, meaning ultra-traditionalist, but the political compass doesn't define things this way.
01:41:01.000Sargon did a big thing about it, and I can't remember what it was, but they try to pretend like Starship Troopers is about a fascist society.
01:41:10.000I haven't seen that movie in a long time.
01:41:11.000It's an interesting thought, though, that you have full constitutional rights as a citizen, but in order to become a, I'm sorry, as a civilian, but in order to become a citizen that's allowed to vote in elections, you have to have served in the, you know, armed forces or something.
01:41:34.000I remember they were talking about it being a fascist idea, and I was like, why would you expect all of these freedoms without responsibility?
01:41:40.000Because from what I understand, the right to vote used to be tied to doing things like serving on the fire force, like fire departments, and originally was, I don't know if this is fair, but people who owned land could vote first.
01:41:53.000Because they had a vested interest in what happened.
01:41:56.000I think we've moved now because not many people own land, but we want to maintain the rights of the individuals to be heard and all that stuff.
01:42:03.000I'm not saying it's an idea I would want to see implemented, but I think it's interesting and, you know, exploring it would make sense.
01:42:09.000You know, what happens when you have everyone just voting is you get an exploitative class of politicians who just say, uh, vote for me!
01:42:28.000So once, you know, there's that quote that, you know, this country is doomed once politicians realize they can just offer taxpayer money to whoever for their votes.
01:42:51.000Fowlane says, if women want equality, then it means taking the bad with the good, and you should be able to stand up with the man next to you.
01:45:28.000So like classical liberals versus social liberals.
01:45:31.000Though social liberals, which is the traditional liberal in this country, like when people say the word liberal they mean social liberal, they do believe in civil rights laws and stuff like that.
01:45:41.000So to an extent I'll say it's fair to point out, but these people who are going nuts, like they besmirch the good name of liberals.
01:47:12.000Technically Right says, during the Cold War, the KGB gave a report to the Kremlin saying that if they were going to invade the U.S., that under no circumstances should they enter Texas.
01:47:20.000Their recommendation was to nuke the entire state.
01:48:19.000Purple Nerp says, quote from Thomas Jefferson, the strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is as a last resort to protect themselves against tyranny in government.
01:48:31.000Well, I think, but I understand the quotes in The Founding Fathers, but for the necessity of a free state or whatever, I think it's the militias we're used to mobilize to protect us.
01:48:41.000However, that doesn't mean it changes what the Constitution says.
01:48:44.000And now you see many people on the left argue, but we don't need militias anymore.
01:49:46.000Jim says, have you guys seen the story in Financial Times and New York Mag about the Oxford study just released saying this only harmful for people with some immune deficiencies?
01:50:44.000When I see these people licking toilet seats, and ice cream, and going and butt chugging, it's like they need a little bit of discipline in their lives.
01:50:55.000It is the little authoritarian devil in me.
01:50:57.000That's why I just err on the side of libertarian.
01:51:35.000Kyle Ellis says, do you think martial law will be imposed?
01:51:39.000No, but some strange iteration that will expand the government's powers probably will.
01:51:44.000So we were talking about martial law starting in California last night, and I forgot to mention to you today, but this morning I read about California using drones to enforce the stay inside rule after dark.
01:51:56.000And I was like, ah, I wonder where it's going to start.
01:52:11.000David says, so you think most sane people will jump to the Republican Party then because the party caused the party to split while Democrats are pushed off into obscurity?
01:52:19.000And then you will have, you'll have a group called like the liberal Republicans versus the Republican, like a new factional form called like the liberal Republicans.
01:52:46.000Well, let's bring it- let's do a feminism finale.
01:52:50.000We have this article that Adam actually brought up and it's gonna make everyone angry because I'm assuming there's a big, large group of men in the chat.
01:55:10.000It says, last week my partner and I found out the gender of our gestating child is going to be assigned at birth.
01:55:17.000And ever since the ultrasound technician turned to us and said, I can tell you that this little person is going to be a little male person.
01:55:23.000I have not been able to stop thinking about that strip.
01:55:27.000It's like before Edie got pregnant, I always assumed that if I did have a child, I'd want a girl.
01:55:32.000I've been told that boys have a tendency to pee directly in your face when you're changing their diapers, so it seemed like with a girl, at least you'd be starting out learning how to change a baby on easy mode.
01:56:30.000Oh, yeah, and he says, plus there's a broader range of cute clothes in which it's generally considered socially acceptable to dress baby girls up.
01:57:51.000But having a son can also, as Roast Beef realizes, I have no idea who that is, seem like something out of a nightmare.
01:57:58.000I don't know if you've noticed, but men in the society are often really not very good people.
01:58:04.000We've had a really hard time deciding on a name for a boy, because for the most part, whenever we've found one we actually like, we've realized it's also the name of some notable a-hole.
01:59:16.000If you're not careful, masculinity can turn what could once have been a perfectly viable human being into a selfish, violent repository of infantile neediness and poorly repressed emotions.
01:59:42.000In Parks and Rec, I haven't seen the show in a while, I don't know why this is popping in my head, but there's this gay couple.
01:59:49.000or the guy's gay and the woman isn't but they're married and they're like against every single thing that has to do with sex in in the government like they're trying to teach old old people because there's like an STD outbreak in in like the old Pearson's home and they're like the the parks and rec ladies like we got to teach these people so they don't spread it anymore so they're trying to do like sex ed class for these guys and they storm in and they're like no this is terrible and blah blah blah blah blah and it's like They're so against all things normal, traditional, and this feels like it was not even written by a guy.
02:00:25.000I feel like she was over his shoulder like, and add this, and add this in there too, and make sure this is in there.
02:03:07.000That would present its own set of parenting challenges.
02:03:10.000But assuming he sticks with the gender the ultrasound technician told us he's going to be given, how can I stop my son from growing up to be a total prick?
02:03:43.000In other words, if I want to escape the nightmare possibility of my son growing up to be the wrong sort of man, I'm going to need to both encourage and allow him to be his own person.
02:03:54.000And so I suppose I need to forget that the little sitting...
02:03:58.000I'm sorry little one about that little one sitting on one knee with the same face as me I need to let go or I need to let my son grow a face of his own I love you so much already.
02:08:34.000I couldn't find anybody because it's not so much about finding somebody, it's about structuring it in a way that would work and I couldn't figure it out.
02:08:40.000So I was like, then I think what I need to do is just maybe like a nightly conversational show or something.
02:08:45.000And we had done it before, a really like Off the cuff, like, on a laptop with some webcams.
02:08:51.000And so I was like, yeah, I'll just hit up Adam, like, let's get it done.
02:09:14.000Thank you for thank you everybody and I everybody who hit the like button we're at 3.1.
02:09:19.000It's all the all the new members It's crazy.
02:09:23.000Yeah, so we'll go through the last few super chats, and then we're a little bit over for today, but it's okay So let's try and figure out where we are we got a whole bunch of super chats Maybe I can't go through them because we are we are going pretty late get as many as we can oh Man, there's there's a ton Wow All right, let's go for it.
02:10:30.000You are better at research than I. If the counter articles If the counter-article's authors to the right are tied to Big Pharma, could be the story of the decade.
02:11:49.000Jay says, said this for a while pertaining to current media, we rapidly went from the information age to the misinformation age with the advent of social media.
02:12:10.000Three months in basic training is a little too much, but it would make sense that, you know, what's the program that you go in high school if you want to go into the military?
02:12:49.000Fallon says, what these people don't realize is having a boy is hard because I talk to my mom and explaining my crazy to her while also being a man and showing up to work every day while I fall apart every day I'm off.
