It's like I'm not defending the dude, but I'm like, I'm just thinking now like damn. It's actually it's kind of quite
a climb. You know, you think about well, here's the thing counter counter point. He has boarded a plane from the ground. Yeah. Oh, yeah. He should he should yeah, he's yeah. Yeah, he's no and it wasn't everyone hating on trumpery know for like fucking like you fucking lose. I'll get that I'll get to that but they were just like a fucking retard with Mike on Friday and then Who could reach our can't get up the stairs and I like and buying Falls so I could hang on. Hey Yes.
Actually Check Your Privilege. Yeah is ableist to make fun of Joe Biden. It's because his foot broke playing with major the dog Rose a fucking. Yeah, and now his dog is dog is stressed from that now attack secret service agent Jose like hey Pete. Could you mayor Pete? Did you watch watch my shepherd for a couple months while we let things cool off and yeah, I'll watch it. All right. Yeah watch it. Yeah slow cooker. Yeah. German Shepherd out here.
How did that joke start it just came from and then we came just look at yeah. Yeah, just look at the guy like he's either chewing wires underneath someone's desk like a mouse or eating dogs. Yeah, probably. Paint job on our way. I need food for the kids money for the rent. Fuck. I like down baby. I can't do that shit now. I'll never go home cause I'm fucking broke.
Either way. I know the police ain't gonna leave me alone on a Plane by the physically Rockne crypto told me I should bring a Glock with me. So I packed up my piece and I'm sliding slide because we might get caught up in a right middle finger drunk middle finger biting. Fuck. I left fucking right as you ride, real love to see those rocket. I can do politics baby. We just talked These from the birds to the bricks. We be in a mix with that rare candy paint job on the web for you it.
Gasps anyways folks today we're going to do a little bit of mailbag. We're going to do a little bit of Twitter questions do something fun. Like make our solo episodes really fun because we do have a lot of really fun guests on sometimes I get a little serious. Sometimes it doesn't it's always good. But yeah, so back to the this Biden stuff. Yeah. I have a few I have a few things I bookmarked on it like you were saying they're like the Maga guys are going crazy on it.
And honestly now's your time like do it, you know like you got it. Yeah, I do it but this one this one this one got me pretty good. This was not a maggot person. But like this is like a person now because these people they vote for Joe Biden, right? They vote for Joe Biden and all I heard was look we don't want them but come on we can't have Trump can't can't have that. So I thought for a while like okay. They're just going to fall asleep during this four years, right?
And then once the Republican wins after the, you know, basically stagnation of All progression happens which yeah would happen and will happen during during these four years or however many where years it's actually Biden but that know like they have to be on the Biden Defense Force this whole time which which sucks. It's like did I wish you'd just didn't pay attention. Yeah the like this one, right?
@potus stumbles as he walks up the steps of Air Force One at Joint Base Andrews, Maryland for a trip to Atlanta. So this person says Lord, I follow up the damn stairs all the time. Give it a rest all I know it's coming next. Hang on three. Oh mama look at being able to walk. This is in June 14th 2020s. I was thinking these tweets work from like 2012 when I held and I was like, oh, this is just
somebody paid out. I mean anything five years or older and internet age is like Farragut, you know, it's fine. Yeah, it's like what's that thing where you could sample like like like an old musician? Oh, yeah. There was like a fucking Claus or something. Yeah. Yeah. We're we're like you could sample like, you know, yeah Faith you can save or Beethoven and it's like there's no one coming after you got yeah, it's like that thing like that.
But this is this there's a three it's just a compilation of like, it's like Obama just walking without handrails. Yeah, which is funny. Couldn't you call that ablest but you're like, wow, I value someone who can walk without hand right? I was the funny thing remembered man, this feels like a lifetime ago. Remember they had that picture of like Bernie taking the escalator and Warren taking the shoes just like walk up the stairs all cheerfully and all the fucking all those all those
chicks, right? We're just like this. This is why we do what we do and and then and then and then like their own like little culture. They're like, actually that's a yes. They all took it down there like sorry, we didn't mean to assume that. It's like you're in your fucking prison when you can't even make fun of someone for taking the escalator without during that during the Trump Administration when yeah Trump was in power like they couldn't just call them what they wanted to call
him. Like. Oh, yeah, they had a column like all these like all these like stupid watered-down like yeah. Yeah, I think things they would force on you like like to see I'm Don you're like what? Yeah, like almost that fuck like come on. I know you want to yeah, yeah. Yeah, the McDonald stuff. I know you always yeah, it's always an alliteration. Yeah, like a double. Yeah, it's even gone exactly.
Yeah, which is funny and then and like people of course it Biden's going to get that but like these people are so funny because they think like they think Biden is getting unfair treatment from the media. That's what I laugh at the most. It's like no. No, how could you say that? Yeah, because any criticism is unfair is what it is.
Yeah. One of those article those headlines like a shower of cash in the America's greatest like humanitarian presidential move of all time CNN, you know, it's like the it's like a fucking covid really fills. Yeah. Yeah exactly. What? Oh, yeah, you're 100% on point there. And and yeah, like it's nothing they could just be like look the with the migrant facilities and
things like that. People are just like you don't understand like the like you can't fix it in a day and it's like, I'm honestly I He could well, that's the The Glenn Greenwald take he's like, oh man, the Nuance comes like heavier than it's ever come before now. Yeah. Now you know what nuances? Yeah. Yeah exactly. Now it now you know what it is. So yeah. Yeah, no both occasions Joe the cages.
I mean is that not is that not the best critique like why are you mad that I did this because you I'm just yeah building off way. It would be like Obama criticized in The Patriot Act, which I bet you if you found debate footage of Obama. He probably was criticized in The Patriot Act. He was like he was like this is the remix edition of the and and like you like each spend that shit up chopped and screwed in human. Yeah all his self. No, he's like in the public.
He's like fuck this Patriot Act in the back. He's like, you're a patriot act. You know, we're cool right remember. Yeah. That's so bad. Yeah you under him you understand this with CNN? Yeah, you understand but she came out of 9/11. That's so crazy. Yeah, like 20 years later. That's insane.
It's nuts. But then just so cool like to deck you hear about like it's a crazy here about like and World War II this happened and then the 70s like that's that's our time frame, you know, like those gaps are like literally it's like Iraq war 911 to now. We're still having this shit. Yeah, you know we go. What's the nuts? No. Oh, yeah. So this was this is in the comments of something. I found is somebody that goes Chrissy Teigen post. I see the answer it Chrissy Teigen.
Yeah, Chrissy Teigen is original tweet was like, oh who amongst us? Hasn't And upstairs like we could all love a relatable president. That was her like stupid thing about Joe Biden, which if it was Trump, she would have just flamed them. So this one I mean to anytime you see waves waves emojis in the in the in the username. You just know it's what does that what does that mean? I think it's like a resistance where I think it's like Blue Wave like I think who would it be and why? Yeah.
Yeah, buddy. Yeah. Yeah. It's okay. Yeah a democratic tsunami if you will. And so this person says to be clear if Trump had tripped I'd make fun of him. That's because I hated him. He's a monster. I love our President Joe Biden. I just hope he didn't get a scrape a boo boo. Is that is that fair? I don't know. I don't care. If President Biden Trails toilet paper, it's okay. So that whatever. Alright that take harmless on its own D comes in.
Let me tell you about Dee Dee comes and goes completely agree completely agree. I read an article in the nation a few months back that started out quote if Biden boiled babies and ate them. I'd still vote for him and quote and I said, yes, ma'am as what eye, and I don't care either. It is the very thing that's like a normal take like that's saving some new crazy. I believe her.
Oh, yeah for sure. I believe sure that if Biden was just like if Biden just was like Campbell's Chunky Soup baby Edition just like on TV just shoveling it down. Joey Chestnut hot dog, July 4th. Lookin hot dog competition. Just babies like that. She's just like well, yeah, but Trot we gotta do. Yeah. There's a fucking Cheeto in the White House. You don't understand you don't well. Yeah, it's crazy like Yeah, we're that was the thing.
I thought they were going to go to sleep at these fuckers. We're going to hibernate for four years. Like who is that? Who is they like what what led them is, you know and I get like a yeah. I totally if you prefer Biden like I understand a lot of people prefer Biden I get that, you know, but it's like damn you don't have to do this. You don't have to fake. You know, you don't just disappear. Yeah. Just let me let me shout into
the void. Yeah. See, that's all I'm saying like suck it honestly stop engaging with me if I make fun of Biden just shut up. Yeah, you have the power you have everything XD. Yeah, your your agenda the liberal agenda is taken. I mean, it's in Hollywood. It's in everything. They've been in power even when Trump was in power. They had all the culture. Right? Look. I understand that the Senate right wasn't in the democrats favor and stuff like that.
But now it is right. Everything is in favor. They don't even want that on apparently and and why can't I just shot this shit into the void without these stupid fucking excuses. Yeah. Yeah. That's all I want for the Next four years. I like look I'm gonna do what I do, you know and I'll get in there's a female back questions that I'm going to do what I do but like my critiques of Biden and shitposting by let's just let it happen. That's a trade-off. Yeah.
It's interesting. Yeah. This is all new territory for all of us. You know, it's definitely like an interesting time you could say and yeah just but at the same time so predictable, you know, it's kind of wild how that works. Yeah. Yeah, but I don't know as she's so like that's dumber than any Maga. Like, you know religious kind of it's a balloon on that blue and on shit that they talk about on Twitter.
Like it's true. It's the same thing if I if you went to somebody at a market or something and somebody was like hey, yeah, like you say you knew about q and on your like I don't want to associate with any of those weirdos, but then you go to the supermarket and some like person with like a pod save America shirt comes up to you. And yeah, it was like Hey, do you hear that? Russia is responsible for all
this kind of stuff. Yeah, and and that and that President Trump. Is the one that actually planted the me to cases on Cuomo and actually suppress the data the Cuomo report and you're like, okay that's conspiracy theory like you're just masking. It's the same thing as human on but it's validated. The problem is it's validated they'll maybe if it's validated by something bigger than them.
They'll never ever be like I'm wrong that's almost by definition what it is. Yeah it is and it's you know, what I realized like couple years ago is everyone has crazy beliefs, you know what I mean? Everyone has crazy people believe crazy shit, like some people believe that we were able to vaccinate against a coronavirus when we've never been able to do that before in human history in a year right faster than every any other you know, that's a crazy believe right? That's crazy.
But do you guys believe it? You know, I lie all I won't try and not believe crazy shit. I'll just make the shit. I believe that's crazy actually cool like that aliens altered our DNA or something. Let's go choice, you know. Yeah. It's like I'm not gonna bleep some like You only have that much RAM for the crib fringes craziest shit Make It Count, you know, don't make it some dumb way. Yeah, I like actually no actually the know we can vaccinate for Coronavirus is not
actually it's cool. It's like you chose that like, uh, you didn't even have to you know, like at least yeah. I gotcha. I know I like that. I feel the case is certainly evidence is stronger than aliens altered our DNA then and fucking that we can vaccinate against the coronavirus successfully I do to do don't tell anybody on the left on that though. I know. Yeah, let me tell you because even even that's so
disappointing. It's like yeah, you're just hope we're just homeless now, you know, you know, what's funny about this last this last like episode we did so I track it I track our numbers and stuff. Like I'll track it like it got like the same amount of like traction, but nobody said anything I didn't get one response on it. Which one way with the vaccine the Serena won. Yeah. Yeah, so so no, okay. So people are scared. I think they're scared to say
well for one. I I feel like the push back if we got like a bunch of pushback people be like dude. What the fuck is this? You know what? I mean? Yeah, her numbers are up since we had her on the first time right? It's almost triple at that point. So I just did it. So I'm wondering and I don't
expect people to agree. Like I don't expect I expect people to hear that in at least but I actually that was I don't listen over to our episodes again like after I get done putting on the internet, but this one I actually listened to I was just like, you know, I'm going to like listen to it and like we sat do we sound crazy to like because I'm able to have that switch where I can go. Go like live brain and hear something and at least like know that to a lib.
What does it sound like? Yeah, and I heard it and I'm like, okay, they'll disagree but we didn't sound crazy. So I'm just interested. I'm interested. Okay, Steve. Yeah, it's twice we did and yeah, so I was interesting well and it's just I don't know. It's so cool. I remember being younger and
like always lean that way. Yeah, you know, I distrust and establishment and not in some caricature kind of way or some kind of like fashion statement, but just as part of my being you know, and yeah, but your you are even if you believe something you're scared to look like you're scared to even talk about it or be the odd one out, you know, and then eventually you just kind of like that cow is develops me like I don't give a fuck, you know kind of thing so it's it is Like yeah, probably
four years ago if I watch that episode on the outside, I wouldn't have said anything either I so I understand why people aren't ya know. I found it very interesting because like I was expecting like a few people that may be caught on. Yeah. It's like the last four weeks when we've just had you know, political conversations may you know, like maybe because there's a difference between there's still a barrier between people who are like, you know, these lockdowns are bullshit.
But I love this vaccine. There's still that that like that Jake still exists. I don't like that it exists. But that's still a lot of people were there like, okay we have this answer now and we'll cuz they they see it as a they're just supposed to lockdowns those types of people are more jennipost to the the nuts and bolts of the lockdowns and they want anything that's a get us out of it. Yeah, but the thing is it's worthless.
If you sacrifice your your moral fiber to to get out of a jam or something, right or to your, you know, give an inch, she'll take a mile kind of I write and do you think it's malleable though? Do you think you think they're so cool? I think so. I think once you've understood this is bullshit, like the reason that we're here. I think you can move their Nair. I think that's reasonable.
I have no doubt that this that they're right that the vaccine will lead to things opening up, but it's for me. That's something I wouldn't concede whatever they're not wrong, you know. It's not a bridge I've choose to build if you yeah, and if you listen to them talk they say they say a version of like fuck it. I don't care just yeah do it, you know and and yeah, but it's a it's wild it's um, yeah, we are I don't want to get out of order but what's that? Don't don't don't don't get out
of order, right? That's the answer to a question. That's one great way. Yeah, don't don't. All right. That's yeah, we're getting there that's gonna be awesome. I just wanted to talk about one more thing before. We got it in the mail bag here. I found this very funny this person. I respect a good Griff. I'll tell you like like it's an art. It's an art like if you if you do it and I see it just going smooth and and nobody.
I mean, this is harmful. I suppose like it is it's not great idea ideology, but I want to get this person's name. Right? But saira Rao I want to say is that is the name of this person ran for congress a while back and what she's doing is she's doing the let's make white woman ashamed of themselves which 99 times out of a hundred. I'm in this time. I'm not exactly sure.
So this is her program. She's wants to do dinners right where her and her colleagues take white women out to dinner to just talk about a Stern conversation for how bad their impact on race relations and white privilege are and how they're you know complicit in white supremacy, right? So this is her like mission statement, I guess dear white woman. You caused immeasurable pain and damage to Black indigenous and brown women. We are here to sit down with you and candidly discuss how exactly
you caused this pain and damage. The dinners are a starting point. I'll get to the prices later. It's a very expensive starting point. I'll place to start thinking through how you actively uphold white supremacy every minute of every day What you do after you leave this dinner is up to you. It's really Regina Jackson Jackson and saira Rao. I love that.
There's dinner involved that it's gonna be like food, you know you have you seen these women but the yeah, nonetheless except dinners are all at uncomfortable intriguing raw personal and hopefully Refreshing God all at once. Why would that be refreshing? Yeah, hopefully refreshing. Yeah, like think of leaving that as a Yelp review found it uncomfortable intriguing raw and personal very good place 5 Stars. Yeah.
This isn't a delicate dinner conversation nor attendees sitting in the audience of a tedtalk feeling exempt from personal accountability. This is an intimate wrecked conversation about how the white women at the table are complicit. In continued in justices at our of our white supremacist society and how they can immediately take action white women attending these dinners need to be committed to resisting white defenses.
I'm sorry. Are you fucking defensive coordinator now, we need to resist the white defense over. There are 104 on a 4-3 Colonial stereo. Linebackers are not heavy. We're just going to run right at him bully boy, and and the House is prepared to interrupt white for Jill to interrupt white fragility. So as to not derail the conversation, so it's you you can't say anything basically this dinner that you're paying for. It's a new approach and while it
may not be for everybody. It feels an urgent need race to dinner sounds like there's gig economy involved in this somehow. I know there is a race to dinner. It's like, oh, I'm an at-will contractor for race to dinner. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I made 378 on this meal. Now. There's a decimal point not where you think yeah, tasty dinner as inspired white woman to push harder than they ever knew that they could that's weird. Hey at the end of the day, right? We're fixing white women.
Usually I'm for it. Look at these prices. Consult with both Regina and saira 600 bucks drop in the bucket consult with Regina just 300 and Consultants are three. Okay. Let's see how we got to 600 there consult with the resident white woman $150. So I such a weird fucking thing man, but then you are going to kill you. Oh, okay race to dinner. Okay. Yeah this person clarified the person that posted this screen cut. This is a race to dinner a white woman volunteers to host a
dinner. For seven other white women often strangers perhaps acquaintances each dinner cost $2,500 which can be covered by a generous hosts or divided amongst guess. Okay, so you so the consultation separate I think right. That's what I got from that. Okay. So it writes add-on fee like 3100 if you want both know if you're going all-in You're like, I want Regina and saira, I can't wear one. Why would I just want to talk to one of them?
And and then you're funny that you can believe that you can you can believe that like like this isn't me or that you can believe that no white people suck and that there's hella damage that we have to atone for and still think this is total bullshit. You know, I know yeah exactly what I find funny is like is like, can you imagine like if you're just like look I'm you know, I want to help and I can do the 25 I could probably add an extra three on there, but I can't get both.
Both of you to consult me first and like why fertility it seems that in your pockets and shit, like getting extra money out of you. We shouldn't we should raise the funds and get this to see what this is about. You know, what's for white women? I mean we could get some surrogates or something, you know, like some Papa John's should do it and in drag he's forgot. That's the fuck. Yeah. It's very funny and but this is where we're at. Dude, it's great.
I mean, well, I've seen it. I've seen her isn't she pretty like famous on Twitter or something? Oh, yeah. No, she's huge. So she'll be like she had one sweet. I remember her. She's like if you don't like if you don't like Indian food that's rooted in white supremacy, slap super hard and make money Brooklyn dad has a patreon which is hilarious like Brooklyn dad has like 80,000 followers on Twitter like a hundred and eighty patrons. I looked at patreon which is like so dope dude.
That's so I'm sorry. Okay, is it though hundred eighty patrons? And yeah 80,000 followers like your shit is not banging it. What does that that's so that's less than how many patients again. It was a hundred. Eighty-nine was what I saw it's like 1/10. It's like a fifth of a percent, right? Yeah, it's not great. I mean, well you're no you could argue that's not bad compared to like for Chris winter such a low information for anyone can follow anyone. You know, like that's not a bad.
That's the thing about it's a conversion rate. You know, you're right. I can email marketing like I think like one or two percent is like fucking fire, you know, and I mean so like what if your side of my for like Jeff tea-drinking Brooklyn dad patreon post? What do you get? Ya just gotta have a noose around your neck while you're reading that stuff. I use II got okay. This sucks pulled it off his chair out from under me.
I wonder if we know if anyone famous does it we know or anything like like, you know subscribes to like quick, you know, kind of yeah. It's probably each other. It's probably all the Trump people subscribe new to Heather's patreons, like like Eugene Goos, like made Seven patreon burner accounts to subjective Brooklyn Dad. Yeah, and and that machines. Yeah. Oh my God Gene goo the EM. Yeah, that's crazy. So that's yeah, that's a good little chunk of change.
Yeah. Yeah, so they're just schedules like it's funny. It's not at a restaurant either like the restaurant if all what are ya the restaurant? Chicks don't have any any the restaurants like I don't have any any we don't want to have right white fragility at our place because actually nobody else shows up in 2500 is not enough to cover anything. So like they have to have it at some random person's house. What's the what's the food? What kind of food do they may be 3/5 is like the Tex-Mex.
There's that are getting your getting drilled like you're getting grilled by like saira Rao about like about like cheddar. Cheese on ground beware of box braids for Halloween and also in the fajita Geico. Give me crazy this one right careful. The plate is very hot. Your hands are fragile. Baghdatis, that's what it should be. Let me tell you is it's not the female bag. Let me tell you buddy. I'm not gonna put okay. I did not put So our world of Twitter is weird some people
choose to be anonymous. So I'm not going to read your name on here beta actually. All right, I won't read your handle. How about that? I'll read your name, but not that because I didn't ask you to do it. Some people want to lay low on Twitter AKA Manilow T over here that wants to be locked on Twitter. I can't retweet them and stuff. That's right. Yeah. That's right. You can't yeah, but I forget yeah, I don't know. I forget that I was even walk.
Yeah. Okay. So first question HP Minecraft is the The username he says what is your favorite covert CIA FBI OSS operation and then he said least favorite, you know what I mean? So I'll give you one recency bias on this one. Very recent like this week. I'll say that I'll say that much. Dr. John or prime minister John Maga fuli. Have you heard of him? Tanzania boy. Yeah our boy. Look at that King David. Yeah, he got taken out this

Let me see you don't set well development is supported by Bill and Melinda The Gates Foundation, why would they put that Bill Gates is doing that our IP Bozo meme where the guy's like at the funeral like like like shout out all that guy to died. He's a bitch like and yeah, except the Tanzania prime
minister. Oh my God, he was anybody who didn't listen to episode where we were wrapping them here John Moraga fuli. He was a prominent covid-19 skeptic populist. Right, covid-19 skeptic and populist you're done in Africa. Africa is like minor league baseball for the shit. They test out here, you know what I mean? Like they were trying to bring
those vaccines in there. And and I laugh too because people think this like just started with covid, you know, John was like dude, I know what you guys do out here. Oh, yeah for sure. Yeah. You know what you guys do out here like yeah as do all this bullshit this this I don't speak English. Oh, I do that's fine, you know type thing and and dude, it's crazy. You got a positive test out of up. Fire. No, that's what I'm so look at what his crime was proving that
covid testing is bullshit. I got somebody did that dude. He took that make you see our testing does it make you a skeptic? Well, I guess in the traditional. Yes, it does but we all should be like shouldn't this guy beat with this should be like making statues out this dude be like, oh, you know, I mean like I want it there any other Nate like, you know, like any sane Society like the World Health Organization would be like, oh shit. Our tests are wrong.

That's a good one. The classic one Oh, you mean like the the the NASA and stuff and yeah, just just basically making our science like Nazi science, but like in awoke way basically like to stop all these viruses and stuff like one that I the one that I had or the couple I had mine were the my my friend who I hope to get on the show Jonathan. It's older older older than us, you know a try.
Alright here put this shit and he told me this and that I didn't know he was a he's not even like I guess he's a conspiracy bro, but he's just more like a truth bro, you know more than anything and and he's a scientist.
Do what? He's like, he told me what and I didn't believe my first I was like no way did but he's like, yeah, did you know that um, you know like Mark postmodern art Modern Art like Jackson Pollock and stuff like yeah, you know was was a you know, like the CIA like he's like, I'm not saying that the art didn't exist or that the artists were fake or anything but the CIA push that pretty heavily to yeah to like make like a meaningless are you know, without you know, without
any emotional or like, you know, spiritual connotation, whatever and I was like, whatever dude he's like, yeah, they did the same thing with Gloria Steinem and like first wave feminists. We gotta bring the atom layer on to talk about that would be a really good car. Yeah, totally. Yeah because he said he's a he's just so into that world. Yeah. Yeah Stein Steinem said she got grilled on it and she said he's like, she's like, I don't have a regret taking CIA money and they do good work there.
Yeah, they're sidereal on both sides. She's the original Jim Jim Halpert. She's the original. Yeah fucking she would have Amazon Prime. Yes. I'm prying them. And yeah. Those are mine when I looked into it. I was like damn there's something there. Yeah, I watch that Dhaka is a little off topic, but the documentary we were talking on the You know the journalists that got murdered by the Saudi Arabians, right?
Mmm and recently, which I don't know too much about but all I know is I watched part of the Amazon documentary and Jeff Bezos is in it and they're kind of paint painting him as like he was like a victim of some Cyber attack or yeah like that and the whole thing just like I don't from knowing nothing about it and just knowing it was on Amazon Prime and it featured Jeff Bezos. I'm like hmm, you know, yeah, it's going on. Yeah. I'm available. Yeah. Sure. I'll show up.
About this is it's not saying that Saudi it murder this dude for sure. Like I'm not contesting that but it's interesting Center. That's all I got. What's that? No, okay. Yeah next question. Thank you HP Minecraft for that one. So this one I'm going to edit the question. This is from Lee Heming. Shout shout out Liam. No, I just okay. He said where's microgreen? You've ever tried. I've never had a bad. Oh shit.
I've never had a bad microgreen. So I don't know what one of grown or even worse vegetable dude. Let's talk about bad vegetables. That's what I was thinking. Like I because I just haven't had Lee. I'm sorry. I haven't had a bad having a bad microgreen. Especially the ones I've grown. They've been fire not gonna lie yield hasn't been great. I'll be transparent but they've been fine. So worse vegetable like what's a vegetable you hate?
Eggplant, you're not. Wow. Yeah. Do you know where I'm going to go with that on some very personal information? What? Do you remember you remember the eggplant dish that was served specially for parmesan? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, we do have to go into it. Yeah. Yeah, there was trash or what? Okay, no, no. No, so all right. I'm it's going to sound like I'm just backtracking here but eggplant Parmesan slaps and I rep he that's only the only way I like because it's basically like fry.
It's the Friday. Yeah, like yeah got it takes away all that. You do get it. You wouldn't know the skin. You don't fuck with no, it's not good. I don't like and I tried that and I was like, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, okay. Way too much personal but no, I do got a I do God knows what else do I got four shitty vegetables, dude? I'm not at I am not a sweet potato guy at all disagree. Yeah, but I can second honor. I don't know dude. I just like anything I got its own thing going on. Yeah.
It doesn't like I'd rather have squash see squash to me is like it's more watery and not as tasty. It's not as dense. I like that density, you know? Yeah funny. Okay. Um, yeah any other vegetables not a huge cabbage guy Depends I like raw cabbage on tacos and shit. Like that's okay. Yeah, that's okay for sure. Yeah, I'll give you that. Yeah, it's thinly sliced a lot of things change like yeah, if you slice purple cabbage or red onion like micro-thin, it's a totally different vibe.
Yeah, when I love beat, you know what I love is Beats and nobody likes him. Like I liked do if you fucking love be I like beets shredded and a salad, but I don't you're saying you won't like you them. You don't like I'm Cuban. Get your Cube. Yeah, Mark Cuban. Yeah, but Cube chunky. They taste like dirt when you mix them with an interesting pulled out of the ground. That's cool. Yeah, interesting interesting.
Okay, so that and I'm going to Parlay off this question because there was another one and this one's this one's for you. I I'm not allowed to answer this one. So this is from Mitch Smith Mitch Smith says and he's a vegan I checked his check. Biodiesel less I said what made sigh go vegan products probably in the minority here, but I want to hear more vegan talk. Listen to this guy. Okay, cool. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, we're gonna go take it
away. It's one of those things that kind of it's like, why did you go vegan? And why did you stay vegan? Well, he's a vegan so I feel like he's gonna know what you when you say if the day that day you decided. Hey, I'm done. I'm being well, I'm being kind of weird about this, but I guess I guess there are like A few answers, you know well for my brother, my brother was like trying it and he was going like mainly plant-based vegetarian vegan to like kind of like
basically the again. He's like, yeah, I'm just trying it. You know, I'm he's like George Harrison was it was pretty much plant-based and yeah, there's all sorts of signs behind it and just give it a go and like I kind of followed him and he kind of stopped doing it, but I kept going and then also from like I definitely after I had My first crazy mushroom trip, honestly, I was like I can never look at me again the same or eat it, you know, but in my mouth what
happened, I don't know. It's just one of those weird. I like I changed something happened during the during the experiment even know not even it's just there's one of those After Effects, you know it like if you're chewing flesh you're like, this is fucked up. Yeah, and it was just I don't know. I just had no like draw to me. And then yeah, I don't know a lot of people go back and they try it and they go back but I and I forced myself not Forced
but I was like, all right. I'm going to eat me to see if they're just if I feel magically better or if I'm missing something or whatever, you know, and I did that like 5 or 10 times in the first couple years and each time. I was like, it's like okay. I like I'm not weird about it. I'm not freaked out or whatever, but it's just like not for me. But um, yeah and then from there. Yeah, and I don't know it just seemed and then you know you fall into the whole thing with like the vegan thing.
There's all the classic it's kind of like it's kind of like being like a leftist, you know, where you have like every fucking you have like every like Point your head down, you know all about the Medicare for all, you know about the fucking billionaires, you know, you got like every little talking point down and then like you kind of evolved in your like okay, I still believe most of the stuff but I don't believe the boilerplate lying on. On I don't know like college
debt relief, for example or this or that or I don't agree with open Borders or just for example, I'm not saying that's me or whatever, you know, but and vegans kind of the same thing where you're like, okay, we got the environment bro. We got the fucking the animal ethics and we got the health like those are our three pillars and like everyone knows about that shit and then you kind of like evolving.
You're like wait. I'm not like these other vegans like I might believe some of that not some of that and so like a lot of people They just kind of yeah, they become like vegan Libs. You know what? I mean where they just don't care for themselves and they had the boilerplate line and you don't want to do that.
You know, what was would you say that that since your brain always being kind of anti-establishment kind of anti hivemind anti code, whatever you would say that made it easier for you to just be like look, I don't know about meat man. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know about the animal, you know, living off of animals. I don't know about that. Huh? Interesting. Yeah, but Also, you know like I went I you know me I did this during a pretty hard time in my
life. And yeah, I definitely like my health didn't improve so I wrote it out like the health thing. I can't say it was the hell, you know what I mean for me because I do feel healthy now and I do feel it was like a good idea over the long run it is if you figure out how to be plant-based it is all yeah, you got to do it right do it, right. If you do it, right? I won't I will never disagree with anyone whose That I wasn't healthy for like years. You work at you you were like 125 one time.
Yeah, it was crazy. Yeah, exactly and it was and you don't need to go through that. But if you're but I was also use it's like, you know smoking weed or something that you can use it to patch up other shitty things in your life, right and you know the same thing you can use like you could use as an eating disorder or you could use it as like a healthy thing. But yeah, but definitely just I just wanted to stop eating animal products. You know, that mean simple.
Yeah respect. Yeah. Well, hey, that's That's our first guy that said like hey, I like the vegan stuff keep going. So that's that. I always make sure to include it. So nonetheless is like a lot of people are anti-vegan because like I think it's some bleep shit and it for sure is you know, but yeah, but it's not it's not good.
Yeah, but it's not going to stop it's going to keep going like there's gonna be way more plant-based people in 50 years than in the next five, you know and a hundred percent gonna it's going to keep going even if even if it not Saying eating Meats going to stop or whatever, but I don't know. That's my thing. Yeah. Yeah for sure. No, I know. I know I've known you've been that way for a while and I got family members that are and even days where I don't even have
yeah. Laughs it's nice but next one. Thanks. Next question. This is from Nova. All right, this one I actually have a pretty pretty good answer to this one. And it's you know what this is from Nova. I don't know but he don't mind this Twitter on there at Nova come he's he says what percent gay. Would you consider yourselves on a percent minimum? I knew you'd be higher than me but is interesting Ike obviously like I'm straight like I like women.
I don't oh, what's that the LIE detectors going off? What do you yeah, but no. No, I'd like I do I like women but his crazy there was a tight this got this question got me thinking like on some deeper shit. Like when I saw that obviously I know why he's asking us this question like yeah, you know, you guys are here. Yeah. Yeah 1,000% but but it was
really funny. You brought me back to this like you ever have like a like something that's not meant to like do this but like brings you back to like here's when I was 14, you know, and yeah, I think in your head, so that's where that brought me because like I was a late a late bloomer like I didn't like fully Like become like a man when everybody else did so yeah when I was like 13 and everybody else was talking about fucking I was like, well, I don't really like really want
to fuck it. You know, I'm yeah, I'm 13 and like but everybody else was just further along and hit puberty before and stuff like that. So I had to be like, yeah plus he's yeah. Yeah. Yeah to be like that. Yeah, but like for a while like that fucks you up a little bit because you're like hah gay. Yeah, like am I gay? You know and and classic Macklemore song. Yeah, you know me and Macklemore, we're like this and but in my head, I'm like no but
then now okay one year later. Yeah, like the Kickstart My Heart guitar riff comes in down and dude. Yeah, and I'm like no no. No, this is all I want. So I guess it'll be later but it was funny. But like as far as like percent gay, I don't know but like there is it is very funny when you Somebody that's so not gay and they can't even like admit when it like a dude's objectively good looking. Yeah, but they could call somebody ugly. If you can call somebody ugly
than you know, what's a man. That's good looking. Yeah it is. Oh, yeah. That's the thing. It's like yeah, you can have somebody ugly unless you know, what a good-looking man. Looks like yeah, totally like yeah and like women are so open about it though. I go she's hot and she's not there not code lesbian at all. They're just like, oh she's hot. Yeah. No and and like for me I was just like oh Christian Bale American Psycho. Yeah, that's Peak mail. Zeke like no problem.
Yeah, like so yeah that question made me laugh when He suggests like Peak male physique, you know. Yeah. Well chasten I'm chasten. Yeah. Yeah, that's you know, yeah, that's exactly no. It's a definitely yeah. It's like come on like, you know, I don't know there is this weird. I think there's this weird like Just like, you know being there, you know that whole there's like the sjw angle of like everyone's queer.
You're cool. You know, it's like yeah and all those articles like, you know, why to just really try experimenting like taking ideas on their ass. Yes. Have you seen Steve? Oh, have you seen everything in their ass? Yeah, come on. Yeah, so it's like yeah and I feel that's like some I could be some dumb like sigh option too, but it's about the sent, you know, it's like come on. Like yeah, you got a fucking come on. We're all human just be you. Don't be scared.
Don't be like, yeah anything like that. I'll say like we had gay stepped out on that makes this gay right like a hundred percent. Yeah. People are the best posters on the Internet by far like gay men like, it's not even it's not even a totally it's not even the thing. Yeah, it's but yeah now that that question I brought it wasn't even so I mean like I know why that question was asked but it like made me flash back
to this shit. Like when I was like in that in-between age where I didn't develop as fast as people and I'm like, oh fuck am I gay like that? Yeah, so that was that was interesting to me. So the next one who's better prepared to survive a zombie apocalypse Glenn or sigh. What do you think Hmm? You'd say you cuz I think it's yeah, I think it's me. Yeah, I've I'm not a diary. I've watched every episode of The Walking Dead. I'll say that mmm.
I've played the casino game. So yeah foiled again. Sorry. Yeah, I love zombie shit. I'm obsessed with yeah zombie stuff. Yeah. Okay. Well, no. I just I feel like when you're vegan, you can survive anything a lot more. I will say that much. I'm definitely more equipped to miss food for longer than most people wearing a camo hat right now to yeah. In my haste at all. Here's my counter point. I think I can outrun you
distance wise for sure. Yeah, especially now if so if zombies are just not quite as fast as humans. Yeah, I think I think I might be able to at least escape to the province. Yeah that I need to go probably. Yeah, probably you know thing is I can't leave my family behind so I probably wouldn't even be able to do that. So yeah, that's why I only thing I know I'm a hundred percent. I was like it to you. So that's that's yeah quick answer organized have it in the wood.
I was or that was organized me shout out organized meet with the question there. Let's okay. That's a heavy question. I don't want to get okay. No, I we will but it's yeah, we're having fun now next one from comrade seguro shout-out comrade to grow and what do you think this is going to be a question for you? What do you what do you guys think will be the state of crypto in five years and then in 10 years, so I guess you know On the air in the world. I suppose like it's actual use
rather than just a tradable. I am as it is right. Now. What do you think? Yeah. I think they'll definitely be everyone will have some kind of dumb shit on their phone some kind of decentralized Finance thing that I'll still be all backed by will be, you know, it'll still have some institutional support or some mainstream like Robin Hood Vibe,
right? You know, and yeah, I mean I think in the next five years is definitely going to be a giant giant wave of Bitcoin and the top all coins and then probably I think we'll see it like if I had to put on a chart it would just be like huge hill up from where we are now Plateau, maybe like a crash and then yeah just up from there basically, but the thing is is in terms of coins, you know, most projects.
It's one of those weird things like there's always energy and there's always turn over and stuff and you know, A new money coming in and everything but most of the projects will die. You know, like most of the most of the old coins are on their way out, right and there's new stuff than there's always new stuff stuff just built and then Bitcoin in the theorem will be the main ones the pillars will move together, but I don't know.
I'm not I'm not the best guy to answer like crypto questions because I'm not like a yeah, we need neighborhood tonight Jeff that Jeff and roll guy on the guy who does the Bitcoin IRAs. We need to get him on. Oh, yeah. Guy, that guy's really good. I was I think what he's this question is asking is like as far as like human day-to-day life like say maybe going to a store like do you think I'll be able to like scan my phone QR code some Bitcoin in to pave?
Yeah, I mean some places but yeah, I think so, but I like to buy a couple Swisher's you know what I mean like you for sure. Yeah. I think that'll be like within the next five or ten years. Yeah, for sure. Yeah. Okay. Yeah, I think so too. I think I think within the next five years. You're going to see a lot more. I mean, I would honestly even say in the next two years see places like like I think Amazon will start taking Bitcoin soon.
I think they already have exchanged like, you know, like exchange type of things where they're beta testing debit cards, you know for where they oh, that's and you can pay in any crypto you want but it's just they just do the Dirty Work, you know and flipped around and all that stuff. Yeah. Wonder what kind of Of fee would be attached. Yeah, I don't think as high as I think that yeah, I don't know but interesting. Yeah, but I'm just yeah, I just I don't know.
I'm just interested in like trading. Yeah. Yeah, and I see what you mean. So let's see the let's go to the next one. Oh, this is from Steven Ramos. Shout out. Steve said when you guys move into Austin, That's the question when you guys come busting I'm down last room from Austin right now. Yeah, I would love to have an Austin. I would love to be anywhere other than the bay area right now. I've never been to Texas besides the flight layover.
Yeah. I've been I've been to the part where you could even like this is back in the late 90s when you could actually just like walk into Mexico whenever you wanted to and then back and forth right? Awesome. Yeah. It was in McAllen, Texas, which is right on the border and you can go to Reynosa Mexico right there, but No, I mean on a to answer this question. I like a broader perspective like California is not doing so hot right now for me personally
like where I'm just like dude. I don't want someone who will feel that way. He'll know. It sucks. It sucks dude, like just doing anything. This is a chore. Yeah, is it shorter man? Like it sucks. Yeah, like just as doing anything like go going into these places where you have like plexiglass is like fucking hockey Stadium. Yeah around you and like
incredibly dumb. Yeah. It just doesn't do it for me man, like like Yeah, and and just the overall Vibe like like you go out nobody's social with each other like no no anything and I always hated the other end of the spectrum where you like being like, Kentucky and like people would talk for hours. Yeah, and you're like, dude. Okay. I just want to go on with my
day. Yeah. It's like can we have that Medium again where it's not just some like you go to Whole Foods dude, you go to Whole Foods out here and it's all just Amazon Prime Shoppers around you like fucking like it's the scariest thing dude, like weird like I thought one He worked at the place and I was like, hey, dude, and like she just I swear to God if I was standing in front of her car, she would have just bowled me over with it. Hey, who's just like enough? Sorry, just like like like
Tiananmen Square with a tank. Yeah. It's like she would have gotten it's a cart full of macaroons. Yeah. Perfect man. He's fucking graham crackers. Yeah crushing me with that. Yeah. It's just getting weird. I don't know how What like what is going it's bugman capital of California New York. It's but Manny's bugman West. That's all it is. And how the fuck yeah, like a
people mess. I got people on family making like six figures that can't afford a home and she like, you know, they're like to income earner households and like what is going on dude? Like it's so wild what has happened the housing markets terrible and I'll get that in the questions later the housing markets terrible like it's not good, but we'll go to we'll go to the next one Steve.
I don't know. I'd love to go to Texas though, Steve. Will rock out to August and maybe South by Southwest sometime or something like whenever that gets back up. But this one comes from Carlos Carlos Bloom and it's funny because I don't this guy didn't follow the account or anything. He just hopped in the threat asked this question and I thought this question was weird because it's like you had to have heard us talking about this
for you to ask this question. So he says, well you agree that wearing masks while an inconvenience saved lives and allowed us to recover. Our mental health in the long run meant that he was so hey, I'm not he said thank you be well, that's what he said. It was a so I looked it was asking good face. I'm not Graham. Yeah. Yeah, I'm not gonna be mean I'm not gonna be mean I disagree but gone you go first.
Well, that's that's what's so weird to me is like I'm you just got to examine the evidence and the I've never like this I get I get the theory behind Matt. I don't I don't understand like it makes sense. Like if yeah, if you have one person wearing a mask the droplets aren't covered deck mouth. Right? Yeah, and if you have two people without a mask, it's like a two-way filter your odds of a droplet touching one of the other go way way down basically, right?
Mmm, so I get it in theory and like and I was never anti-mask like throughout this most of this whole thing. I was like, I'll wear it. I do want to make I don't be a dick. I want to make people feel bad and I never believed that. That all that dumb like, you know, I don't maybe there's some truth is I don't think they're you know, the whole like, oh you get less oxygen and it's all germy and that's what gives you coronavirus.
I'm like no that's dumb like well, yeah that didn't make sense to me. Yeah. I was like that's just some dumb like shit, but then but then what only what matters with human health policy and and you know, and and epidemiology is like when the rubber hits the road right like what the real and like the mask mandates don't seem to be doing much. All and then people say well that's people are breaking the Mandate. They're not wearing masks Mike. That's not true.
Like everyone's wearing a mask, you know. Yeah, everyone's writing mask America has some of the highest mass compliance in the world. Yeah, the fact that shocks people like more than Europe, but our media will never say that our media will always say and I don't mean to interrupt you here, but our media will always portray it as like nobody wears a mask here and everybody's going on vacation. Everybody's doing this. It's like dude if I'm sorry, go
ahead and I'll no no, sorry. My cat just jumped up from the fucking. Yeah, no the regions of the the crazy thing about it. You you get these. Okay, here's a here's the thing. Why is it that any science that comes with covid even when cases go down the science leads to more restrictions, right? You have to understand that like like okay right now cases are lower right now.
There's no Milestones. There's no like when we hit that Milestone we can start to open things, but not even that right. So let's say Mass did work. Why did they go to double masks? Yeah, right. I'm not saying. That's being implemented. It's not mandated. I understand how she went from zero to two 140 2022 and then fauci said the word real quick, not me and but the the I don't know like if Mass if masks worked, why'd you go to 2 and if Mass work, why wasn't everything open?
Yes, my husband that's my other thing if masks work. Everything should have remained open. Right and I totally reject the part of the question. Did it improve our mental health. They opposite at that I destroyed Lele dehumanize this completely and you know what I mean Isis and you actually see articles now, I just saw this in the Denver one of their local news thing Denver has a thing where Matt wear masks anxiety.
So we're like say you're you're vaccinated and now you're cleared by the government to go out to a bar again. There's this there's this thing they're warning. Out of masking xiety, which I completely agree will exist if you wore it religiously for year and then stopped wearing it. Of course when you are in public, you're going to go like this. Yeah. Yeah. No, I know and like of course that's going to happen. So I'm saying no, here's what you did you bought things on credit.
Right? What you do is you change your entire life for four year or or even more I don't buy that these people are going to just stop wearing masks some of these religious mask where people and and religious stuff. I don't buy that that they're going to stop. Top but what you what you did was you bought it on credit and it's like when you have anxiety, right because this is this is what he said in the question was anxiety. And this is somebody I have with it.
If you don't gradually peel off layers of your anxiety. It's a Snowball Effect it grows very thick and you are going to be eventually put in an uncomfortable situation. Yeah where you have a fucking meltdown? Yeah. Yeah, you know what? I mean, if you're not and I mean this literally peel off the layers because now they're double asking people and so what I'm saying, Is don't I think I think this basically just bought bought Anxiety Relief on credit is what it did.
Well think about this with the like we're the most overprescribed anxious humans to likely ever exist in modern. Yes history and we did this crazy year-long mask mandate for like a correct like a virus and all this. So it's like a perfect storm, right? You know, it's kind of a crazy ass thing.
It's like and yeah, I've thought thought about it too like not even like well, my whole thing is like walking we have talked I've eluded us on the Pod before but like You know 80% of people like, you know, 10% of people are anti-mask like vigorously in any scenario either percent just go along with it or like whatever I don't care but they don't really think it's protecting them or anything, right?
It just like I'll just do it for the social thing and then the other 15 or 10 or whatever are like religious anti Max or anti-religious massacres, but it's great when you're walking down the street you can never tell that.
Yeah, and unless they tell you with their Pro mask when you know that You'll hear about it. But and like I've walked past people with my mask down and they don't have one and then like they'll be like should I cross the street, you know, they're all like a freaking out and stuff and then he's got like hey, man, what's up? And so many people have been like they like beam dude. They'll be like, oh my God like a fucking normal person, you know.
Yeah, so it's like it's crazy. We can never tell looking at someone where they stand on the mask. Yeah, and we all and I'll be I'll be honest dude. I'm a street Crosser. I see someone like fucking four blocks down. I'm like, you know, Healthy, you know, it's just weird. How are we off to well, I'm in Portland. Everyone's crossing the street dude. No one's like no one's walking past each other and that's fair. I see that a lot too. I Network. Like I said, it broke
instructions. So I see it a lot like well what'll happen is like will have everything reduced down to one lane. So like on a sidewalk, you'll see one person walking their dogs one way and then you'll see on the same sidewalk somebody coming the other way that person the sidewalk will go into the one travel Lane. Yeah, where cars are actively passing in a construction zone. Rather than walk past somebody on the sidewalk.
Yeah, it's funny. Like what we'll try and cross y'all you start to cross and then you see them and they shall I do that Deion Sanders Primetime move like yeah with the shoulders and yeah, so I don't want to spend too much time on that. But like I said, if you trust the PCR numbers, you trust all that kind of stuff, of course, like I understand why you're going to say maybe Mass temporary. Yeah relieve your anxiety. But again that have to believe a lot of bullshit to be that
always gets collected. Yeah that always gets As I'm saying you eventually Society is going to resume and you're going to have to like you just gonna have to be okay with that and I think there's going to be a lot of these think pieces written about maybe we should open a little so we should open a little softer maybe a little more soft opening, you know, because this is scary to people so that's all I'm so that's all I'm saying, so I don't want to spend too much time on that
because we are I have a couple more I want to get to so this one Kurt Ramos the essence a bunch of questions. Mass is about like four questions. I think a lot of them kind of go on the same line. So I'm going to read through them real fast. He said do you guys think that working class and poor people become class reductionist by default given material circumstances or would that inaccurately be ascribing
essentialism to them? Okay, which I think I can dumb guy that question basically to saying do you think Working Class People people when you're when you're low maybe Blue Collar low wage and stuff, too. They're naturally class reductionist. That's what he was saying.
And then I'm going to paraphrase is for he says, how can we get more proletarians engaged in the class struggle when it's arguably imperative that we demystify the lens of class in the midst of hyper normalization ongoing pandemic II think I get what he's saying, so I'm gonna dumb guy that question basically is do Think Working Class People by Design our class
reductionist. And do you think how do we get back to class structure in the midst of this pandemic and the intersectional crais and stuff like that? Yeah. So I mean, I'll start with that one because I think yes, I do. I think I think a lot of working people I won't say class reductions, but I think they understand that their poor right? I think they understand they don't have what they need.
Do they buy into a little bit of the identity so Of course, right you're always going to look at yourself in the mirror and identify what you are. I don't even think you have to go as far as to rid yourself of race rid yourself of everything. No, but to get people back into it and this was something that I saw from I mean, I'll call her out. I'm not going to lie is like a me Therese like was saying with
her. I guess I could say is like kind of just to anti-union take where she was saying, like look only six percent of the public or private sector is is Union like unions are basically just a vehicle for the Democratic party and stuff. I still think I want to talk to her about this one day. So I don't want to go too crazy if she's not here to respond. Normally, I agree with her a lot on a lot of stuff. But this one I thought she
missed the mark on big time. I think we have to basically make Union stronger to get working people any kind of power. I think we're going to have to I understand that a lot of people who've been scorned by the left might think of unions as this utopian thing that's over-romanticized by the left stuff all that's true. They do they think unions are like this crazy like everybody's whistling at work every day like Snow White when she's fucking
making the bed and stuff. Not true still hard work people are frustrated with their Unions. That's true, but unions in my opinion our vehicle. Their vehicle that has a key that can be driven by anybody. Right? So if we get this class based politics infected around the union like like an actual pandemic right? Just just in fact our unions with with like actual class based politics get the shop stewards in on to get the Reps in on it.
No, it's not because a lot of those guys are from the way the unions and one thing Amy Therese was doing I thought she was kind of focusing on like PMC unions like kind of non labor labor unions like actual manual labor in the manual. Aber District, I think you can get a lot of people in the right places in these unions and really start getting material
gains for workers. So I think once these workers start seeing material gains from this organization within that those unions and really starting to get that percentage up of private sector because I agree that that's not enough to actually do anything. Once we start, you know, supporting these Amazon unions and stuff like that. Once we get the solidarity amongst these unions. I think we can actually start seeing material change. So that's just for me. Yeah, I like that.
Yeah. Yeah, I think that People I think that's fucking obvious that that people. Even Beyond identity just just just they look at their bills way. They look at their bills every
month. Yeah, there's been this way for all of human history where people just are more like people with economic closer to people with the same economic statuses them, you know, yeah that's just seems so self-evident obvious and and the the end It's funny because it's the last thing that we address and it's the last thing that anyone in Powers willing to concede, you know for classmates trouble and I'm sorry
to interrupt you. But the one thing I wanted to say to Amy's take that if the left like unions that much then why do actual like Amazon push back against their unions, right? Yeah. You don't have an answer for that. They would they would welcome the unions and if they were an actual vehicle for the Democratic party, yeah, there's obviously a sacrifice that the elite have to make to appease union labor right and if you got rid of Labor Or labor unions again. I want to talk to her about
this. I would love to reach out to her and talk about this. But like well, how do you DNC proof or Union though? That's the thing. You have to infect it from the inside. You have to like you have to have your shop stewards basically convinced union workers to hold their vote hostage. Yeah, which is not a thing anymore. And I'm sorry like here's the thing. Is there a strong percentage of
that happening? No, but none of none of the the strategies I see from anyone have a strong percentage of happening, but I guarantee you that Over one of the two big parties is way more of a pipe dream that taking over unions. Yeah, right and unions and then expanding having that should catch on like wildfire right catch catch the Liberals in that weird ground where they're like, I don't want to be anti-union but I also don't want any of this to happen cash be like
sure. I'm just I'm sorry. That's a vehicle. I don't believe either party can be a vehicle that's driven with like this Universal key, right? I think that I think that unions can be driven by anybody right? But I think these these Republican and Democratic Of parties, they can't be driven by anything to anyone except for like somebody that comes from this political family. Some of that comes from this lineage. They have that special key for it.
It isn't work. So I agree like I agree with her critique on it. I just don't think that that that that going full right to work and whatever is going to work. Yeah, so that's just me. I don't know I had a lot to say on that. So I'm sorry if I cut you off there.
No, well, I mean Amy school, but yeah when she has a tank and then people like call her retarded and she digs in you know, that's Thing rather than having a conversation about it now and I'm in the people supporting or in the people that come to her defense. I'm like make sure you know what she's saying first. That's all changed. If you read what if you don't defend the person even if that goes with us, like if you don't like us but say you love this podcast so you love listening to it.
But if you just fake be Emily disagree with something that we said then you disagree. That's fine. Don't defend me on it. It'd be weird if you didn't disagree. Yeah, her whole thing was kill your Idols right till your idols. The whole Michael Brooks thing all that kind of stuff and I agree with that like when in journalism don't stand politicians don't stand journalists. Don't do anything. They're here to serve you they're here to give you information to you.
But what do people do when she's being under attack? Yeah, Idol. Yeah. Okay. That's all I'm saying and I'm not talking about any particular. I understand. I'm just saying like I don't I don't think her critique is I think her critique is good. I don't think our Solutions good at all. So that's all I'm saying and to answer Kurtz question. I just I just think it's it's start within your workplace. That's where you spend the bulk of your awake.
Is yeah, you know what, I mean are your actual cognitive way of days start there, you know, I mean thanks members right in labor unions, like like actual manual labor unions. You got Maga all that kind of stuff. Even the most Maga people in the world will die before you take away their union benefits. So there is a common ground on that. So yeah, that's all that's all I'm going to say. So just real fast. We are getting long on time here. We've got two more questions here.
This one comes from this is from Instagram here. That's why I'm reading off my phone. This is from pancake dinner. I think he's on Twitter to I can't remember what his name is, but if you could wave a magic wand and we're able to enact your political agenda. Where would you start and what's the prescription for everything? For me. Well, yeah, you can answer first. Yeah, I would do the word you start. Why would you like how I would I
would do? Yeah, Indian subcontinent and African continent to counteract all the fucking neoliberal Gates bullshit first and foremost. Do you start at you'd start at the at the African continent? Because yeah, okay. Yeah, just just just to put a stop Gap and all that neoliberal Gates bullshit because that stuff is going to slip through the cracks so quick and all. All the fucking else he's going to be down all the liberal leftist going to be down at the
yeah. It's going to be it's going to be the most Anti left shit to ever who and what stuff do you mean do you mean testing medical stuff? I mean, what are we? Yeah, the just the whole or you know, I'm coming from the gift food and agriculture background more than anything that just they're going to transfer our failed experiment of growing, you know, not even just GMOs, but just our style of Agriculture with you know, cut
burned poison, you know. Bleach the land all that stuff, which is having wreaking havoc on American soil already. We're going to export that whole system to them right when they already have Rich agroecology tradition, which is a good word to check out agroecology. Yeah, if you don't know about that is and it's all going to yeah, you think Gates is like scary that he owns all the fucking American Farmland wait till he owns the world's Farmland.
Yes, I would I would start there for sure and they have no they have no they have far less. it's far easier to okay. What am I say? There's a pipeline that exists right from The like like Sprite smart people in those cultures and in India, you know in Burkina Faso and gone, whatever right? They're smart and they're bright and they're good at school. So they end up going to neoliberal American institutions. Yeah, bring back the propaganda with them.
It's not their fault. It's not I'm not saying that they're dumb. They're easily swindled or anything like that same that happens everyone all over the world. But for some reason that's the only pipeline that exists. There's no decision. Yeah. It's interesting. That's only the peasants that are like that are often wiser, right and they know what their what's up with their land. What's up with like the India Indian bro that the farm that the part that's the world Rex rice yield record.
So it's like yes, I come at it from agriculture perspective, but it's it applies to all of it kind of thing. Yeah. Yeah. And yeah, so that's my yeah. Okay. Yeah America don't waste your magic on America. Hey, yeah, and to be honest, I disagree. I mean not yeah, obviously everything you said, I agree with but like like like for me, I mean, I guess my answer is the same as what I just said like we have to be have to be strong as workers because again if we're going to spend The bulk of our
time at work. Yeah, he needed we need to win at work we need to win. That's the Battleground. Yeah, that's the bat. That's the Battleground and I agree with everything he's saying but I guess if I could wage wave a magic wand to be to get rid of the gig economy.
Yeah, that'd be my number one thing because every time like the thing about Kevin, I wish I wish we had Mac Dre live long enough to create a mixtape called the gyal pon media is for me. He would have it would have been it just Hamlet door - Full of pills. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it would have been awesome. Yeah driver just goes riding outside of an Uber like yeah, it's got the fucking the phone holder and like what about Mercedes-Benz? What is it gay?
Unbelievable? Yeah Global content, but know what I like just getting rid of getting rid of the gig economy because what I hate about capitalism is that The the arguments of capitalism is that it creates the ceiling this high ceiling that Innovation and anybody who's actually smart can be rewarded for their their, you know, crazy contribution to society and the government can't tell them how much money they can make but it's like also the government like this minimum
wage stuff dude, like the economy is a like a basically a loophole like a roundabout way of getting around minimum wage like so yeah, and and what sucks is that and that's why I've always been Pro. Minimum wage even though there's a lot of people like, you know, I'll say a post left. I guess that'll just like that's gonna you know transition to a gig economy. It's like dude minimum weight. There are ready pivoting past the 725 minimum way or whatever
federal minimum wage. They're already going to do that you might as well take the 15 while you can so there's there there's that but they creates this this new floor for like the way you can make it stocked up like you can it's terrible and to get rid of that. Like I said we These people have been beaten down into the ground like California passed with flying colors, like prop 22 to just basically and like that a lot of that involved workers voting against their best
interest. So when you beat somebody down you hear this happen with slavery all that time and stuff like that when you beat somebody down to a pulp like they're probably going to adopt almost Stockholm cylinder syndrome to type thing where like they're going to just start like, okay. This is the master. This is the person like I just want to survive. Yeah, I didn't die yesterday in my gig economy job. Yeah. So today I just still want that gig economy junk exactly told me
yesterday. So that's that's where that is. I want to get rid of that. That's why if I had a magic wand I'd get rid of that and for prescriptions dude, honestly, like I hate to say it but we're just going to have to you have to you have to do like a general gig economy strike. You have to do it. Stop fucking feeding the bug man. Yeah. That's what you're gonna have to do. They're gonna have to pay a living wage for that shit like yeah, it sucks. But I don't know.
Yeah, I like it. Yeah last question last question. We're definitely running out of time here. And this one is about censorship. This is from King to can Fab and he says on Instagram says What similarities and differences do you see with the big time Big Tex self-censorship and the current wave of anti-free speech Bill's passing in various States. The similarity is that I think it's the same people. Yeah. Yeah. I don't get the question.
It's like, oh no, I do. I don't think he's asking to bad faith. I just I'd there's no I don't. Yeah, I don't I don't think there's any difference I did. Yeah, private companies control censorship now and the government is a slave to private companies. Yeah, like yeah, and that's where conservatives with their free speech arguments are so fucking stupid. Yeah is the is the what Twitter is a private companies like well, why do you think your account just got banned?
You fucking yeah, like you didn't say anything that benefited Capital right at the time like like to be Pro Trump did not benefit the state of capital. Yeah, like you look at now. What what's what's what now is benefiting capital is not its whoa Stuff, you know and that might change in a few years. It might be something else. I don't I don't people think we're anti woke or anything like
that will evolve. Yeah, it'll eventually become like maybe a maybe it'll be a hard conservative read pivot in the next four years like it might happen whatever it is. I'm still against it and but it is the same thing. You see these people these states like Nevada having we talked about this with with Doomer. I think we're in Nevada has these like is proposing these Tech ownership of land where you pay a subsequent tax to Living Dead. Back country in Nevada
indentured servitude exactly. Yeah, I like wow the British pay taxes and they pay the royal family taxes to like shit like that. Yeah, and again, like how is that a strong government? That's just a strong government bowing to private companies, right? Yeah. That's what I say. You're scared of private company or you're scared of government overlay. I these private companies have been stronger than the government for a long time. Yeah. Yeah.
Don't fight the right target. Don't don't get lost in the weeds and like Don't have your don't have your political enemy be like one and a half decades in the past that doesn't exist anymore, you know, and it's things evolve and change and yeah, yeah, it's you gotta a and if you try and be partisan with this stuff, you're going to get you're getting washed out. You know, you have to look at it objectively. There's no political thing to it. It's can I say what I want? No.
Okay. Why and is it the government? Which yeah, you could say that the government is is definitely helping these private companies out. But look what an AOC got attacked, right? Yeah, you know quote unquote attacked and stuff. Who did she go to first Apple parlor Google Play, uh-huh. Damn all the all these people she went straight there right to say to say who's responsible. What do you think of the
similarities and differences? There are none the state differences are going to mirror private companies requests. Yeah. Yeah exactly that it's that simple and and and big Tech is cancer. It's more cancerous than any American government Force Republican or Democrat my Seriously? Yeah, thanks claps. Yeah, that was the mail Bag Man. Okay. That's a good first. One thing only get better from here. I do them a lot for my Raider show.
So like I'm a I'm a mailbag veteran if you will so like I do that for I've never done it for non Raider stuff. So that was that was cool. But yeah, so Yeah, no the that's all we got today. So appreciate everybody for listening the questions. Yes. Thanks for the questions. I'm we're going to try to do this. I like to do a solo every so often. I love having the girl like that makes a serious serious and and funny.
Yeah, exactly. Yeah, exactly and a lot of people do a lot of people that hit me there like like one of the guys that ask a question you posted think he's a he's a long-haul driver like long-haul trucker and he's just like dude. I'm like, it's cool to hear you guys. Just fucking around. And sometimes like all said and just pivot into some serious shit and yams not I'm not so mean to be honest. This is me and use phone conversations that we used to have.
This is yes, like a slightly more, you know official version of that. Yeah, if nobody likes it when you probably yeah, we would have just been like a fucking this is stupid. But like what do we do in this like forever and it'll just will probably blow up but it'll be so it'll like what we've so like let us do the same shit nothing will change, you know, yeah, no doubt.
And whilst old hopefully get out of this shit this fucking one-bedroom eventually, but you know, who knows but yeah, I appreciate you guys listening please subscribe on YouTube. I it's and follow us on Twitter at rare candy pod one. We're definitely gonna have some merch coming soon. We're going to be guests on some podcast coming up pretty soon.
