We are thrilled to be joined in our third seat by one of our favorite guests. Yeah, one of your favorite guests, a writer, actor, one of the funniest stand up comedians doing it. She has one of the best comedy specials of the year called Bitch Grow Up that you can go and watch on Max.

You must go and watch on Max. You will around. Don't go and watch on Max.

It is the hilarious, the talented Marcella.

Marcel Argyle rap name quick Flatina, cooking rhymes, and Michaelsina. And they call me because I'm a dirty little Nina. They joked that I'm a dude just because I am the tallest. But my name is Marcella, not Marcellus Wallace.

Whoa.

But I still come quick. Whether I swallow or I spit, my technique is legit.

Okay, what happened?

Wow?

I got goosebumps from that one.

I mean you have a handheld, Mike, you can go ahead and drop that thing real quick.

Yeah, oh not quite the probably not Yeah, Hey let me do. Let me do an a S m R with my sequence fringe.

Yeah, that jacket is hilling. I see you wear that online and I'm like, yo, that jacket is is doing ship now I am rubbing my hand help Mike. Yeah, French on the fringe.

How much was I definitely rubbing something after hearing that one?

Am I right? How much is that? Jack Am a big as m R jerker? You know, not much.

It's fast fashion. It wasn't.

Yeah, well look good you're making it wasn't.

I was intended to wear to see Beyonce the Renaissance tour. It's a sequence fringe jacket, cowgirl style, but I my foot injury prevented me. I'm attending that concert, so.

Okay, well you might catch what. There's that rumor that she might do a Vegas residence.

You now, I would love that. I'm praying for that. I'm waiting for her and Brittany and Janet to do my Vegas the Three Horsemen, Yeah, three horrorse women Horror.

Yeah, get down?

Is that that would be unprecedented level of like someone at their peak doing a Vegas residency, right.

Like.

People with small children do a lot of Vegas residency. So I'm hoping that Beyonce really was like, you know, and after this tour, I think I should do a Vegas risk.

That's what I watched thatch alone. I mean, like, if you're just thinking, I'm like, yo, watch this, I do a fucking like three month four month run. That's it. But yeah, they have so much money. At a certain point, I'm like, why do y'all keep working? Like in my mind, I'm like, why do you keep working?

It is true, like people love to do the thing that they love, right, you know, So that's I mean, that's part of it. But like, yeah, I mean I I just think of it as like a cool way to like work and also like let your children be in one spot for a long time.

Yeah, oh shit, it's at the Sphere. Bro a residency at the Sphere.

Wow, potently that Beyonce. I want to do a residency the Sphere. It would be crazy, it would be incredible soul those visuals.

People are gonna have fucking full on panic attacks, like existential crisis in that building.

Mushrooms, hand out, mushrooms of the door of the Yeah, yeah, handed out like those bracelets that changed color with the show.

Yeah do that but like with acid. Yeah, ten minutes after I get on stage exactly.

And everybody opened their sawny waters and down that ship right now. In here, there's a little piece of paper in here, Like, don't worry about that.

That's funny.

All right, Well, Marcella, we are going to get to know you a little bit better in a moment. First, we're going to tell our listeners a couple of things we're talking about later. We're talking about, you know, I'm sick for a couple of days, and US politics went and got dumb on me. We got the Senator Mark Wayne Mark Mark Wayne Mullin continuing to talk about how he's not scared of fighting. He would have fought and

On Fox News.

All of that plenty more, But first, Marcela, we do like to ask our guests, what is something from your search history.

The last thing that I googled is I'm trying to watch as money solo shows as like one man shows, when woman shows, And I was like googling the Robin Williams all his solo shows, and I guess are available on YouTube illegally. It's awesome.

I love it the whole thing.

Yeah, the Evening at the Met or Night at the Met, that one is definitely there. I haven't watched the other ones, but I that's so like, I'm just immersed in solo shows because I want to work on one, and I'm just like trying to see all the different styles. And I'm like, I watched all these specials as a kid, but I don't remember them. I don't remember ever going back to watch them as an adult. So I'm like, oh, this is interesting.

Did you have a favorite as a kid.

I just remember whoop being Robin always standing out to me. Yeah, you know, I remember like being like, whoopee. I was like, she is very serious about some of these things. And I remember Robin just being like a child's dream, you.

Know, right exactly.

It was so cool with yeah, yeah exactly, and apparently he was I guess, Yeah, I was. I don't know if you've ever seen that. That the documentary that is on HBO Max right now, Jack, what is it call? It's like inside his Mind or some shit has beautiful art, but it's very cool and the I think the kids talk about that, like he loved you know, getting dirty with the kids.

Yeah. Yeah, the what was the one I remember as a kid. I remember there's like that guy Danny Hawk who had a one man show that I remember watching because he did a lot of character voices. And then John was almost Freak was another one that I just remember being like, Yo, what the fuck? Yeah, characters is this guy doing?

That's cool that we all grew up with that, like Robin Whoopy and johny Guzama with these one person shows. Yeah, just like we just were dude, we didn't even think twice about it. I love that they were suitable for us to watch.

Yeah, totally. I mean the Wasamo one got a little wild. As a kid, You're like, oh, yeah, shit, what the fuck are you talking about it? How it turned into vampire bat Wing? Okay, never mind, sure, sure, but that like it is, like it's interesting because those are the kinds of things that as a kid sort of got me to believe that there is a way to be like you can just be create, you can be super creative, and that's that's a lane, you know what I mean.

Yeah, exactly, And I always liked how and I think it's missing now is that people would be you know,

Yeah?

And I respect the art form and I feel like, you know, getting back to the basics of what I grew up on is like inspiring me to be like, oh, yeah, I can, I can do all those things right right?

Right? Oh well that's going to be let us know.

We'll be Oh, I'm excited. I'm excited to work on it. And it's kind of it's kind of already fleshed out because I really what happened was I've been working on this new stand up hour and it's basically about my family. The chunk of it and a lot of the stand up it's some of it's old. And I say like,

Yeah, damn, I can't wait to see that me too.

What is something you think is overrated.

You know, I had a hard time with it. I always have a hard time with this. I think this segment is overrated. No, just kidding, I think I know.

Yeah yeah, yeah, I remember like having that epiphany like nineteen smoking weed and shit and be like, yo, I think that's the problem.

Like, and that's the other thing is that I grew up in a house where my dad because my dad was such a George Carlin fan. And I remember my dad would watch George Carlin and I was like, I didn't understand. I was too young to get you know, I was like eight or nine or something. He was like, yeah, George Carlin knows what he's talking about. Yeah, organized religion. I was like, here's Chris here about my dad. And then you grow, you get a little older, you're like,

Yeah. Does George Carlin count as like one man show?

Is that?

I mean that's debatable, you know, Like it started off as like a really political stand up and then it kind of evolved into I think what is now the what's considered stand up?

Right?

Like, and I always blame uss On for this, like he ruined the concept of like what is stand up comedy and what is a one man show? Because Netflix advertised it as a stand up comedy hour, him knowing damn well that it was a solo show. But like, you can't really explain that to people. It has to be advertised as stand up. But I think George Carlin definitely, like, in my opinion, like especially those later hours, because they got very luxury sure, and it's like that it does

Yeah he I mean, my I grew up in a very strict Catholic family and but we had a copy of like George Carlin's book.

And isn't that wonderful?

Yeah? Yeah, like watched a special and stuff. It's like a release valve. You're like, damn, He's like I watched George Carland before worrying about hell.

Because wasn't he Catholic?

Maybe raised, raised?

And I feel like that's a big part of why people are like, well, we can listen to this he's like us, and it's like, no, he's not right right right.

He always said like that the only good thing about religion was like the music, and that always like stuck out to me. I would be like sitting in Catholic church and being like this music is like not that good.

He must have gone to a different church than I did.

Probably, yeah, I mean I actually I was thinking about how, like, man, too bad. Somebody can't like just make a new religion with all the best parts of all the existing religions because I didn't realize that Maria Carries Christmas album was like gospel when I was a little kid, right like now, when I listen to the album, I'm like, Jesus, what a wonderful child just like singing these songs, and I'm just like, oh, that's gospel.

Like I grew up on.

Gospel and I didn't even realize it. You know, God bless her. But I'm just like yeah. Of course, as a little child, I was like, yeah, these songs are popping. There's something And I was religious as the little kids. I was like, yeah, Jesus, well he is a wonderful child.

Such a good child.

Yeah, Jesus looking amazing. Wow, turning heads, what is something you think is underrated?

I guess I'm respecting other people's opinions. Like again, at the sake of sounding corny, I'm just like, I think I'm so overwhelmed with the news right now, and like watching people that I've known for a long time and realizing that their belief system is rooted in straight up ignoran you know, like straight up superiority, right, you know, and people aren't just allowed to be and you know that can also the thing I hate about like vague

What are we?

What are we doing?

I know it feels like the fucking Twilight Zone. You're like, are y'all really advocating for ethnic cleansing? So casually, yes they are, and you're like, god, damn, I don't know. And that's the thing I'm really there are people who like, I'm really curious if this you know, right now, there's a lot of focus on like the hostage like when

What what are we doing? Y'all? What are we doing.

H and the people who are like out there, like you know, blocking the roads to raytheon and ship shall bless you all. You know what I mean, Like that's yes.

Morning, the bay bridge is closed off, and that's should I not say this morning? Does that matter?

It doesn't matter?

Okay, God bless those people.

Yeah, everybody, all.

Right, let's take a quick break and we'll come back and get into the news.

We'll be right back and we're back back, Jack. I thought I had waited this one out, man.

I thought I was just sitting in my sick bed, just waiting waiting for this one to blow over. And he's still with us, Senator Mark Wayne.

He Senator tiny man is just letting you know, like the last few days, like you said, you checked out right, and we've been checking in on Senator Mark Wayne Mullin as he continues to scream about He's like, I ain't scared of fighting, even if it's in the Senate chambers.

Do you want to run your mouth?

We can be too, consenting adults. We can finish it here. Okay, that's fine, perfect, you want it now. I'd love to do it right now.

Let's stand your butt up?

Yeah you stand up, but up? Hold stop it, suit down.

You know.

We were like, yo, what I love Sean, Like you're a crown clown, look at you like totally. It was just like, yeah, go ahead for make a fuck his assy yourself right now. Mission accomplished. And since then, this dude has been going everywhere to try and be like yo, bro, like I'm with the ships, Like it doesn't fucking matter. I would have fucked him up, you know, it doesn't like that's just who I am. These are Oklahoma values. And the internet at him, so he went even harder.

What was that about?

Well, I wasn't mad first of all. So when you get mad, you get angry, you lose your mind. The first thing I thought of when I set up, I thought, I'm gonna break my hand on this guy's face. I'm gonna take my wedding ring off, Because when you're fighting, you learn how to punch correctly. You really shouldn't break your hand, But when you aren't doing it with raps.

Well, you actually thought you were gonna come to blows in that.

Moment, I had full intentions of doing that.

Absolutely, let me play for you something that year. I love how there's just a pause there. She was like, oh for real, Oh motherfucker. I also wait, we also go back to that original the first clip. Bernie Sanders is not for the people like he claims to be, because first of all, he won't calls far and second of all, he won't let these motherfuckers throw down. I want to see it. People want to see it, Bernie, right right, damn let him.

Roll each other up. Go ahead. That seems like that seems like.

You're saying, we all know that's where American politics is at. Let's just start it. Let's just start the WWE transition.

It's fucking wild man. Like he the way he was also talking like how he's like, well.

You know, like when you like learn not like when you're fighting and like you know how to actually fight, like you learn how to actually punch the right way, like unless you're like he gets overly technical in this way, like he sounds like.

It doesn't hand wraps on. Yeah, he's sound like a virgin, like lying to his homies about how like he's like, I get like bone deep, bro, like every night. So like when you're doing it, when you do the smash like me, that's just how that that goes. But bro, he looks like an absolute clown right now. Yeah, And it's just it's it's hilarious and disheartening all at the same time.

But this is the thing in sports when like a player it gets into a fight with somebody and they get really tough. The second, like the entire team is between them and the person that they're trying to fight. Like, I'm just trying to figure out where on the scale of like fake tough guy does doing that with the entire like us Senate apparatus like a but like a

Oh can I can? I also say? I was gonna be like, who this is so fucking childish. I can't believe they're doing this, And then I remembered there was one of my openers within the last year. She just was so one of the most disrespectful openers I've ever had when I was headlighting, and you know, I try to, like, you know, talk to her about it, like, hey, you can't be like you know, that's that's not cool whatever, because I'm a fucking professional and I also know how

Why I thought people fingers and they don't.

They love having Bernie's standers hold them back from the.

Back, you know, you know you know what. I'm sorry. There's actually even more story this. Stude went on another fucking podcast and then he talked about how he fights dirty. Also, Now it's not just that he's like, yo, bro, I'll bite them, motherfucker.

He should train jiu jitsu is because even if you lose a fight, you want to make sure the other guy will never want to fight you ever again, because it's kind of a win win at that point.

But we need to move from and almost I'm not afraid of biding. I will bite biting. Yeah, I'm a fight. I'm gonna buy. I'll do anything.

I mean, I'm not above it, and I don't care where I bit.

By the way, it just is going to be a bit.

I'm not going to.

Speak. Let him know, Mark Wayne, let me find out.

Was the guy like really wanted to be on board with him and he was like, but biting.

I think that guy's also like into some m m a shit. He's like, that's not even bro cool man, unless you're like fighting for your life. Yeah, do whatever you gotta do. But you're like, yo, I'll bite a teams thirs, boss, I don't give a like what Okay, you're tough. You're tough.

So anyway, I just need to get my hand wraps on to before I go on Twitter, because I start talking about how I'm gonna kick these dudes.

But I know how to actually throw a punch, like the right way, so like I could like that way, I will not break my hand like fighting, because that's like a lot of people do that when they fight, they actually break their hands. I'm like, did you just read a fucking Quora article on how to throw a punch or something?

Sounds like he's like punched a wall with his and then blame it on his wedding ring when it hurt his hands.

Oh yeah, I think he also thinks he's good at sex.

No way, no way, no way, Mark, no Mark, Wayne fucks are you kidding me?

Yea a flashlight?

Wasn't there also something where somebody was saying Kevin McCarthy like elbowed him in the back and shot or something.

Yeah, happening. Childishness, complete child eight. None of them want smoke. That's why it's just like little steps like you bumped me, and then he'll be like, yeah, pushed me back, or this guy getting out of it.

I knew he wasn't serious when he got up because he didn't undo his tie immediately, like men are about to fight and are in a tie, we'll take it off, like I'll kill you right now. Undoing his tie, so he stands up. Bit you get fucked up?

Yeah, exactly. We're talking about the other day's like the wristwatch that comes off right away that he kept that. He was touching his ring like he's like, protect me mother.

He was like one of those how the you know you always see those those meme dogs that are barking through a fence and they open the fence and the dogs are just staring at each other.

Yeah.

Yeah, and they put the fence back and they start.

Yeah, that's what he was doing exactly. He's like, oh, get that fence in between us again. I'll let you know what.

I'll fucking bite you right through this face.

Bite your to be there. Yeah, don't test me, bro don't test me, brock off. Shall we move over to the house, Jack.

We want to keep talking about this, Yeah, we want to have you. Ever got into a fight, Jack all the time?

Constantly?

I used to get Yeah, eating up your children, that does not count.

Wow, violate, violating.

The fans are gonna hate that one.

I used to get a lot. Oh what a surprise because you weren't there, Marcella to protect him. That's true. I would have protected you, Jack, Hey, if we have beef, can we just can we stick you on some people? Hell? Yeah, cool, cool, cool cool, noted noted i'm'na be like, yo, my because my homegirl, Marcello come down here, and it will be fucking smoke. I'm sorry.

I think part of the reason too, I'm so confident because I had very large brothers there, like, oh no, these fools are going to jump in, don't even try it.

Oh so like you almost had the aura, like even if they weren't there, they were like her brothers. Yeah exactly, Yeah, yeah, that that will happen until somebody's like, we're your brothers now, like someone who had like a thirty in the toilet, you're not.

Picking up, Like ohways, this Christmas.

All right to the house, Santos, to the house, to the house, to the house, send it to the house. So the House Ethics Committee just released their findings into the details of the kinds of fraud and fakery that Representative George Santos has been getting into. And I'm kind of impressed. Yeah, like was living it up this campaign cash.

I mean, I'd be impressed if it was like ten years like you know, yeah, yeah, yeah, what's his name on the on the on the fucking Supreme Court. That's impressive.

I was gonna say Senator Bob Menendez too, and he's just getting straight up gold bars and shipped from people.

But I'm saying, like, that's impressive what it's been going on for years. I'm actually not in George.

Yeah, he's so bad at getting away with it year a three year, A three year scam.

That's minor leagues for you. Yeah, Okay, that's nothing, let's break.

I mean, that's like that's amateur hour, right, You're just you know, get another You got to get elected a couple more times before. People were like that's true.

Minute, that's like being a musician. You're like, why had that one single that was popping? You're like, what about that album? Or like nobody was fucking with it?

Was there a second one election wonder?

Nope? Yeah, So we found out that first of all, he had to keep his skin tight, literally because in twenty twenty he started using the campaign cash for botox totally around four four k that year. This interesting detail. One of the sessions took place at Mirza Aesthetics, a Manhattan medspot run by a doctor whose license was suspended two years ago over breast and penile enhancement's gone wrong.

I could, I couldbove fifty k pretty quickly on Sephora and only purchases and only fans.

Because you imagine it was He's just going wi everything like custom videos, custom videos. I'm subscribed to nine thousand accounts, everything, but.

Everyway, so you're not allowed to create a company and then pretend you're the customer and.

Yeah, satisfied, serious, right, come on, serious draft, I gotta.

Send some emails real quick. Completely fucked that up. But yeah, then like you know, goes on to say he was doing lavish travel Vegas, the Hampton's, Atlantic City. He was just bawling, but yeah, trying to.

Figure out if he had a bad like like someone on his team that was advising him terribly, or if he has a bad accountant, or if he's that stupid.

But he's been but I mean think about it, like he was doing bad checks in Brazil and he like like he tried to run from those charges and I'm just like looking at his thing. I feel like it's like anything right. Like we were just talking about getting inspired by watching like like these one person shows like Comedy Wise, and you're like, oh, I like that. Maybe I could do that, and you move in that direction. I think if you're like a scammer, you probably just

How much Boat Talks is four thousand dollars worth of Boatox performed by somebody who is who lost their license.

That's a good question.

Dicks and penises.

That's actually very interesting. I didn't think about that because probably more than normal. He probably got like ten thousand worth's.

Like sixty percent off if you ignore my reviews. Yeah right, yes, and uh I could really use some good YELP reviews. Yeah right. If you just say, if you say your dick implant didn't blow up, just please, I'll give you four thousand dollars with the Bottox man, no questions asked.

All right, let's talk about the Osama bin laden letter.

But can we also just say that he can't he can't run again?

Like they're yeah, he's not running. He recently announced right that he's not running.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, he was really forced to announce.

That is not running like this, like dragged yes up to the line.

That is the good. I just want to end on that, because it is good that we will not be having to deal with him in Yeah.

It's just so wild how the Republicans can get their ship together to try and oust one of their people when they want to you know what I mean, Well, I don't think.

I mean, come on, they're homophobic as fuck.

There yeah. Yeah, But I'm saying when they want yeah, yeah, yeah, when they want to they're like, oh yeah, watch this this other guy who was trafficking miners allegedly. No, he will let him cook, but let him cook. Yeah. All right.

Over on TikTok, the latest viral star, according to a lot of headlines is Osama bin Locker. Who's this at Osama on TikTok? Wow obl the.

Latest TikTok star, Matt Rife Osama bin Laden, that's.

Right, but yeah, people have been sharing the letter that bin Laden wrote one year after nine eleven, spelling out his motives for the attack, which includes the US backing of Israel and devastating sanctions in Iraq. And so it started with TikTok user Lynette Adkins, who was like, my eyes have been opened. I feel like I'm going through an existential crisis first time.

Yes, it's new here, you knew around here.

But the letter, like, just to be clear, the letter, which again was written by Osama bin Laden, contains like some wild anti Semitic rants about how the quote Jews have quote taken control of the US economy, a full pair parographs like the thing that he really seems to take issue with is Bill Clinton's blowjob. That's He's like, that's the thing that's gonna go down in history.

Anti sex work, which is as yeah, it's.

Not the courifinally, yeah, pretty, I think that's verified for most people. I'm sure I was going hard on the Clintons too, because they were the ones who were just letting all those Iraqi children die, you know what I mean, So he probably.

Like yo, and on top of that, right, okay, okay, but yeah, there's a lot he's right. At one point he calls it's a satanic American invention.

So it's on the Bob Marley tip. I feel you, dog, it's.

A Babylon ting.

But so the Guardian, who had previously published the letter in full, took the highly unusual step of removing it from their website.

And I don't know.

Some of the reports has made it seem like young people are reading the letter and instantly becoming like radicalized, but I don't know. It seems like it's probably more likely that they it's I don't think they just suddenly love Osama bin Laden and are like super happy that nine eleven happened. But the letter offers a perspective that is contradictory to like what was taught in the aftermath

Or just conflating like just people like look like no, I don't. I think a lot of the things that I saw on TikTok where people were like, oh my God, it wasn't like Osama bin Laden is fucking bay like right, They're more It's like when the first time I wrote the People's read the People's History in the United States, and I was like, what in the fuck is you know what I mean? Like, I didn't know all this.

Now, right, And you know the other thing is too with a lot of these younger people, is this is their first in terms of this literal letter. This is our first taste of like watching the actions of the establishment come down swiftly because the Guardian taking it down was proof right that they didn't want them, the establishment, the media doesn't want them reading this, which again goes back to both of your points where it's like it's not like these people are like, oh my god, I

But maybe read the people's history of the United States instead of something I mean, you can.

That's not you share opening.

This is the opening. This is the introduction. We all just like with comedy, right, you fucking you like fucking bang Cook when you're a teenager, like I did. I love Ding Cook when I was a teenager, and then you you're like this material fucking blows ass, and then you fucking find Patrise O'Neill or whoever the fuck. And you know, nowadays it's you know, Matt Rife not the best comedian, but he is an open opening for Ralph Barbosa, is an opening for these young people to watch something

Yeah, we'll see yeah hopefully suddenly like yeah in two weeks time. Like people are like, oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, they went too far with the bin laden letter. But I think, like to your point, Jack, I'm hoping because to me, it's just it. It looks like I remember when I was so curious about the world, I tried to look for anything that was giving me some kind of answer other than the one I was getting in school. Yeah,

You were kind of I don't know, sometimes.

You like to do it.

I was like, I was like, what's taking so long? I was like, Oh, he wants me to do it?

Then we're black guys.

Jack O'Brien, I'm a piece of ship miles.

Back to you. Why did you sound like a Dutch DJ?

How I see Jack?

Okay, you're right, I'm Jack O'Brien coming here.

Bryan music and politics, and my children are the best number one kids.

Shout out the families. What is that from David Ghetto? Dude? After fucking the George Floyd ship, he was on a rooftop, remember he was doing a drop on that Martin Luther King speech, and it's like, shout out to other families and we're like bro families, the David Ghetto of podcasting. Yeah you are. That's a check though.

All right, Uh, let's talk about some more religious persecution that we're seeing. And I am, of course talking about the War on Christmas. Come on, guys, it's don't don't pretend like it's not. Usually usually we're hearing quite a bit about.

The War on Christmas by now. But Fox News still they're they're struggling to get it off the ground this year. Yeah. Yeah.

Jesse Waters did a whole segment about.

I love when Jack is funny. That's my favorite because it.

Folds you in half, you literally your whole postures.

I've never seen it coming. I love to listen. I can hear it.

There it is.

Let me get back.

So he talked about, first of all, his opener was pretty good, he said, talk about someone being funny.

He said that the War on Christmas.

Comes earlier and earlier every year, probably because of climate change, which doesn't even really to me.

Bro Come on, use your brain, use your third high.

Yeah it does. It makes sense in like a more of a you know, poetic license.

What.

He then talked about how two local news stories are proof that they're coming for Christmas. There's a Georgia company that had swapped Christmas Eve for Juneteenth, which is two months old, and it merely involves with Georgia Healthcare company making Juneteenth the paid holiday instead of Christmas Eve, and she was.

Cool, Yeah, which one y'all want? Yeah, you get in one. It's like, all right, we'll do juneteen, all right, bless y'all.

It's definitely not the fault of the company who's not willing to give their employees an extra day off and instead are specifically politicizing the issue on purpose. It must be that liberalism is out of control, because as we know,

It's so it's just it doesn't I remember, like even a year ago, it kind of hit different like now I feel like, are they just completely gassed, Like they're just like, I don't know, man, fucking one Christmas again.

They're listening a little bit, yeah yeah, yeah, yeah.

Like yeah, like the old material is not working anymore, but you're still doing it. Huh.

I just don't understand why people aren't down to celebrate all the holidays, Like, bitch, you have more gifts, more different snacks at work, Like what's surprise bluff?

Right right? I think it's like the same way they were getting upset about, like the fucking what is it the new target ship that they were selling, like the new ornaments or whatever.

Yeah, yeah, well they got gay ornaments now, and get these gay ass ornaments hat.

We're wearing a rainbow hat.

Oh god, I mean so stupid.

They're trying to make the ballet.

He thought he was straight out of here.

Yeah, my man is graceful with his nuts all out. Did you match? Oh my god.

Robbie Williams in that special had this funny ass line he goes, which is the ballet? You know, when you go to the ballet, the men's tights are so tight that you can tell what religion they are.

Guys.

Watch Robin Williams old ship.

Oh my god, there's also a black Santa in a wheelchair, and people were pissed off because what one comment or said, how on earth is he supposed to go down the chimney? So oh, I'm right, because how is a small plastic facsimile of a fictional deity going to bring you a free Nintendo switch if it's in a wheelchair?

Yeah? How how it's I mean, it makes sense. You know. This is always what happens with inclusivity is basically they don't like when the spotlight widens to shed light on more people. They're like, it used to just be on us. It used to just be all on us. It was only white cis Head Christian people that was a spotlight,

I will also say I am concerned for the child that sees sand in a wheelchair and he's like, who broke Santa's legs?

And why? Yeah, and then they're like, man, at least people some money. You know, the police makes.

People some milks. Yeah, we ate the wrong cookies. Okay, Yeah, wash your hands every time you eat, like they're gonna turn into you know, parents are gonna turn into a lesson.

Right easily easily? Oh you know, because he was rubbing his eyes too much. Yeah, exactly, it turns into rubs. Yeah. Good.

And yet there's always something weird about that ship.

So yeah.

In terms of Google searches, the phrase war on Christmas has been down pretty consistently since basically the Obama administration. So the peak year was in two thousand and five for unclear reasons, maybe just I don't know, they were looking for anything under the radar that they could use to fuel their religious war, you know, but not make

You need Fox News with a person of color in the White House, and you've got fucking gold.

Yes, that's the good recipe.

Because yeah, even I remember when, like when Trump was in office, it was just kind of like, yeah, yeah, here we go, and he would even say the thing. But it's now it's not even like an event anymore, you know, it's just become commonplace. It's like, yep, and that's what happens every December November they declare war on the Nutcracker and Santa.

Yeah, he was a big war on Christmas person, like early on, I think, even before he was president. But then I wonder if it has to do with the fact that his wife is on wax being like, who gives a shit about Christmas?

Fuck Christmas? Yeah, yeah, you want to see the inside of this house for the holidays. It looks like a blood nightmare. Now enjoy Merry Christmas, you piece of shit.

I guess I just find it funny that people get mad if you because I've done it. Roo I'm like, happy Holidays? Is it goes Merry Christmas? And I'm like, yeah, merry Christmas. I also celebrate Christmas. I'm just saying happy holidays because New Year's Thanksgiving. It's just holidays. It's not

Black Lives Matter?

Yeah, oh okay, okay, I happy all lives Matt yeah gets.

Like oh fuck off man, but yeah happy. It's like so unoffensive. But again, it's it's meant to they need to rhetorically have that sort of superiority. It's like rhetorical holiday superiority. Yeah, it's yeah, buy them gifts, so buy them gifts. Yeah.

So in October twenty twelve, Fox mentioned war on Christmas more than fifty times.

This year.

They didn't mention it at all.

Until now, basically, yeah, yeah, so that's wild in October. In October they were going for it. Wow, they got it.

They got to get a Maria carry person up in there and be like not yes Christmas, not yes, it's time.

Yeah, yeah, I wonder if that's if just the fact that Muri Carrey has formalized the beginning of the Christmas season has changed it, or if it's just because they've succeeded in making Christians feel like they're the victims of discrimination, and so which could it be?

Yeah, I think it's Maria, But yeah, I don't know.

It's Uh, it seems like a bullshit story. But the underlying goal of it to make Christian people feel like they're persecuted a persecuted minority.

Has six Yeah, very successful campaign, to the point that they don't even have to spew the propaganda anymore. It's just taken as truth. So yeah, well done, Fox News, well done.

In October, you go asked Americans how much discrimination different groups face in the United States, and Republicans were more likely to say Christians faced at least a fair amount of discrimination than they were to say the same.

Of Jewish people or black people.

They were more likely to say white people face discrimination than to say black people did.

So is that on your list for Santa to be? To live that reality? Fucking losers?

Dear Santa.

For Christmas this year, I would like to try discrimination.

I would like to try to.

I want to know what systemic oppression really feels like. What kind of holiday movie is that? Oh man, that's just what i'd watch.

A killer, that's for sure. That's a banger right.

There, for real, I'm not ai write that one. Shit.
