All right, we've got a billionaire that thinks free speech should mean you can plan crime. We've got a whole bunch of unrealized.
Idiots on social media online, so very weird.
That was really weird. My song was playing and it's not even in the document. So it's a live broadcast. I can't start the show all over again. I don't know where the song came from. I don't know how it did it, but I will start all over again. I'm sorry for that live broadcast. You know it happens.
So basically, what I was explaining to you is that growing up, I like to go out to eat because for me and my family it was, how do I say this, a celebration And even though it was like Shaky's Pizza, or it was you know, Kentuck your fried chicken or whatever, going out to eat was a big deal. Okay, And again I apologized for the beginning, and so you didn't hear me apologize to my patrons for not having internet yesterday, not being able to do that. I apologize.
I'm so sorry. The last three minutes of the show has been all of my song. I don't know why my song was playing. It's not in this document. That's a computer glitch. It's not there, but it played anyway, so I don't know what's going on. I'll have to research that after the live broadcast anyway, so I apologize to the patrons. We'll either get a new one scheduled before Labor Day or right after, and then eating out has been a big deal of mine all growing up
it was I love to write about it. I started writing about restaurants when I was eighteen years old in gay and lesbian press. I have been invited to restaurants my whole life to review them. When we were on KFI, Andrea Rataman, the late Andrea Rataman, did restaurant segments on the show, and she would often send Andrew and I to those places. Huffington Post. I've written about restaurants and veganan Vegas dot Com. I still write the Vegan in
Vegas column. I enjoy going out to restaurants. It's just something in life I enjoy because I wasn't able to do it growing up. We didn't go out to big family dinners or to big this or to big that. So for me it's been a big deal. But this weekend, Steve and I went to Nacho's Daddy, Nacho Daddy here in Las Vegas, and they have an extensive vegan menu, and so Steve, you know, we can get vegan, non vegan, and it's a nice got a nice patio, and the dogs are welcome, and so, you know, we like to go.
Steve and I enjoy going to lunch or brunch. It's a gay ritual on Sundays. And yesterday a the restaurant had hardly anybody in it. And then b you know, when we got the che we ordered a nacho appetizer, not even nachos. We ordered chips, salsa, guacamole, and vegan cheese as an appetizer. It's chips with a little bowl of guacamole, a little bowl of salsa, and a little bowl of vegan cheese. Nineteen ninety five for bagged corn chips. These aren't like freshly made chips. These are out of
a bag. And then a little bowl of salsa, a little bowl of guacamole, and a little bowl of vegan cheese. Twenty bucks. Okay, no way in hell is it worth twenty bucks, but that's what it cost. And then I got vegan enchiladas three enchiladas rice and beans twenty three dollars. Steve got three vegan chicken tacos, rice and beans, our bill for two iced teas, one appetizer, two entrees five dollars plus tax and tip that came out to ninety
dollars or forty five dollars each. So forty five dollars to split a not even a whole bag of chips, a handful of chips with literally two ounces of guacamole, two ounces of salsa, and two ounces of vegan cheese, and then vegan enchiladas, three of them with rice and beans, and three vegan tacos with rice and beans. And it's not that it was vegan, the all the entrees were that price. Entrees are between fifteen and twenty five dollars, and Nacho Daddy is It's like the Acapulco or the Alteredo.
It's not an overly nice, you know, upscale restaurant. You know, it's just not And so I got kind of depressed after that. I said, Steve, this is just it's getting out of reach for the average person, Like the the restaurant's almost empty, and you know, I don't have this even once a week. I don't have this to go out once a week. I don't, you know, fifty bucks for lunch, basically forty five dollars. I don't have that
for lunch, you know. And so it made me depress that something that I really really like to do is becoming out of reach to almost anybody. And now today I have to go to the grocery store, and I'm already depressed because all I need is fruits and vegetables, and I know it's going to be one hundred dollars. And that's the problem that Kamala Harris is having. Donald Trump is screaming, I'm going to fix that. I'm going
to fix that. And the idiots out there think that presidents actually set grocery store prices, or that presidents actually set gas prices, or we don't. We're not that much of a socialist country. Now. Most of this is corporate greed. These seven companies that control all of our food, whether it's in a restaurant or in a grocery store, are making record profits. I don't want to hear these posts that say grocery stores margin is only one point two
percent and they're struggling. They are not struggling. If Kroger can buy up Albertson's and Smith's and all they're if they, you know, are showing a four hundred million dollar profit, If profits for Philip Morris, which owns a lot of your food, believe it or not, they went from tobacco to food Nestley, which owns a lot of your food. If these you know, ConAgra, if these companies can be showing three hundred percent profit increases, five hundred percent profit increases,
that means they are overcharging. Now Kamala wants to try to do something about that, but it's very hard for a president to deal with high grocery prices because we leave it up to corporations in private industry and they are price gouging, and so it is really depressing right now in our country. If you like to eat, particularly if you like to eat with friends, if you like to go out and socialize, if that is part of your life, you are losing that. And that's why this
election not only matters, but why it's so hard. Meanwhile, what are the maga idiots? And I'm tired of not being able to call them morons or idiots. If you're online and you call them a moron or an idiot. Your response is taken down, but their hateful response is left up there. I'm tired of that. These people are
friggin idiots. They're out there screaming about an unrealized capital gain tax that Kamala and President Biden have put forth, and they are screaming how it's going to affect homeowners, and it's going to affect you here, and it's going to affect you there. And here's let me explain to you what an unrealized capital gain tax is. It's for the eleven thousand people in this country who have more than one hundred million dollars and whose income is more
than eighty percent from capital gains. Capital gains is the sale of stocks, of real estate, of art, know, of real items that you sell and then you realize a profit on a majority of millionaires do not get paychecks. Their money does not come from work. Their money comes from buying and selling stocks, buying and selling art, buying,
selling real estate. And so if eighty percent or more of your assets of your income is capital gains, and you make more than one hundred million dollars a year, this new tax would affect you okay, And what it is is they borrow money on their unrealized capital gains. In other words, if they have a property and they only owe one hundred thousand dollars on the property, but the property is worth nine hundred or one hundred or a million dollars, they have nine hundred thousand dollars in
unrealized capital gains. If they want a loan against that property, that's the number a million dollars because that's what it's worth. So if they want to get an equity line or whatever, it's based on that million dollar number, Well they want to start taxing on that number two. But again, only if you're worth more than one hundred million dollars, and only if eighty percent or more of your assets and incomes are capital gains. That's eleven thousand people in the
United States. Well, every MAGA individual is out there screaming about the socialist communist bastard that is Kamala Harris. And you should read the responses. I posted the facts on threads and there are people under there say, well, I know it doesn't affect me, but I still think it's wrong. And I'm like, then you're a fucking moron. Anyone that doesn't agree with this tax is a moron because it only affects eleven thousand of the very wealthiest people in
the country and they can afford it. But those people always have the poor people out doing their bidding, the people whose lives this does not This would only benefit millions. Three hundred and twenty six million, nine hundred and ninety thousand Americans will benefit from it. Eleven thousand Americans will have to pay a higher tax, and yet they are out there screaming like someone was gonna come and eat
their baby in front of them. It is the most disgusting display of moronistic behavior of the day, because every day there's something like that every day. So here we have these morons out there trying to be upset about attacks that would never ever affect them. This is who these people are. They're cult members. They repeat the problem that they are told. The same with MSM, mainstream media.
It's out there denouncing Kamala for this announcement about unrealized capital gains, and they never once they're talking about that it only affects eleven thousand Americans who make over one hundred million dollar are worth over one hundred million dollars and eighty percent of their assets or capital gains. They just leave that part out all right. When we come back, I promise no strange music from anywhere. Sorry, you know, live TV. It happens, and we will be back to

You know, I'm totally going off script today. I did found the music. I found the music file
that played. It's gone. It won't happen again. I'm going totally off script today because I want to talk to you about Telegram and free speech. The billionaire that started Telegram, who is a big trumpy guy. He's screaming that he's been arrested because and his arrest is an affront to free speech. Well, Telegram, which was a communication app like Twitter or whatever, allowed people to plan crimes on it. Okay, allowed people to plan crimes. Think about that, all right,
I got to step off camera again, live TV. We got things going on, all right, there we go. So it allowed people to you literally, conduct illegal activity on it, and you know of France in particular, said no, this violates our laws we were not gonna let you do this, and we're gonna arrest you unless you stop it. He didn't stop it. He screamed free speech, so they rested him. And I think they should arrest almost every leader of social media that there is, because, like today on Threads,
Threads is not stopping the disinformation about this unrealized capital gains. Okay, they're not pulling the posts that are giving disinformation. You know, there are people saying, oh, if you own a house and it's five hundred thousand dollars but you only paid two hundred, you're gonna have three hundred thousand dollars in capital gains that you're gonna have to pay taxes on. That is a blatant lie because you're not worth one hundred million dollars and eighty percent of your assets aren't
capital gains. So it's a lie. But Threads is not pulling it down. I think any social media platform that spreads lies, their owners should go to jail. That's the kind of nation we need. The kind of nation that France is, that Germany is that the UK, England, Scotland, Wales that they are. You spread lies over there on social media, you get sued or put in jail. The athlete that everyone said was a man. She's suing JK Rowlings, She's suing all the people, Elon Musk and everyone, and
she'll win over here. Oh, free speech, free speech, It ain't free speech. You cannot walk into a mall and yell someone's got a gun. That's hey, as it's exercising free speech. You see what people would do. No, so he should be in jail. He allowed people to conduct illegal activity on his platform. He did nothing to stop it. Go to fucking jail through the time you did the crime. All right, Trump is maybe pulling out of the debate
September tenth. He says if they cut off the microphones while the other one is speaking, then he won't go. Now he previously had said that he would. He's fine with that. Now not so much. So he's looking for a reason to pull out. I wasn't gonna do a thing that pisses me off. And then also, if you want to be hated on social media, there's only one word you have to say, and that's vegan. I'm not
making that up. If you post that you're vegan, or you post under a post that you're a vegan or whatever, you get so much hatred, and this just speaks to who we are as a people. We hate vegans. People online literally hate vegans. Some restaurants, everyone just hates vegans. Why we're the ones doing the right thing for the planet, for the animals, for society. We're doing what's right. But isn't that the way now? We hate the people that Kamala is trying to do what's right and she's getting
nothing but hatred for it. Joe Biden has only tried to do what is right and he has got nothing but hatred from it. If you are a vegan and you try to do what's right, you get nothing. Well, you don't have to push it in our face. Are you aware that being a carnivore is pushed in my face all day? Every day every grocery store, I go to, every restaurant that's out there. All they do is promote
carnivorous habits. That's all they do. They don't promote healthy eating, they don't promote veganism, which is better for the planet. They promote what they are paid to promote by the meat and dairy industry, which is eat all of this crap food and kill yourself and kill the planet, and they vilify the other side that's actually doing the right thing because that's bad for their business. I have been I've lost friends because I'm a vegan. They won't talk
to me. They're like, I don't want to hear about that vegan stuff. I'm like, I don't sit there and speak all day long about being a vegan. Well, when I go out to eat, I go. I don't tell you what to eat, you know, I just asked that we go someplace where I can eat. Like that's some big concession, going to a restaurant where I can eat. Every human can eat vegan food, Okay, every human can eat vegan food. Vegans, however, cannot eat all the other food that most humans eat. So you want to be
hated online, just say you're a vegan. That's it. You'll get insult after insult. Oh, you want to know how someone is a vegan, they'll tell you within the first five seconds. Yet you tell us you're a carnivore with your habits in the first five seconds. Let's go for a burger. I sure could use some lobster right now. You know, It's like, ugh, today's a day of my pet peeves, because I have a lot of pet peeves today, I really do, and I'd like to hear some of
yours down below. YouTube dot com, Forward slash, really Correll, Patreon dot com, really Corel. You know another pet peeve of mine. We cut the cable snip and we try to save money, right, because cable is getting to be two hundred dollars well now with all the different subscription fees Disney plus, Hulu, Max, Paramount plus, now your bills just as much as it was before. Or if you don't want to pay that much, now you gotta watch ads.
So the thing that streaming that appealed to us most about streaming that we could watch the content without ads if we paid a fee. Now they want us to pay a fee and watch ads. Amazon has put in ads, Peacock has put in ads, Hulu has put in ads, all in pro in you pay them. Hulu is eight dollars a month with ad ads, seventeen without. That's ridiculous. If you're paying a subscription fee. There should be no ads.
When I do this live broadcast, there's no ads. Now in the repeats there are ads, but the live broadcast, which I hope all the patrons watch has no ads. That's why I do it. I do it live with no ads so the patrons can see it with no ads. Then the ads are added once the show is over. You know that's a pet peeve of mine. You're going
to charge me money and still show me ads. Well, you're no better than cable now, So cable companies should come along and say, okay, we've got all of this, We've got max Hbo, we've got it all, and here's our fee. They'd win again. They could win again, because we're all sick to death. You know what, I'm sick of refunds. I am sick of companies. For instance, the Chase lounge that I bought, it doesn't fit the sectional.
They couldn't get it in this room, and so I sent it back and they credited me eight hundred dollars. Except the eight hundred dollars hasn't been credited back yet, and it's seven days since they took the thing back, and they said, oh, it can be seven to ten business days. There should be a law that you get the amount refunded as quickly as they take it. When you go to get checked out at a store. You can't say, oh, here's my card, but i'll pay you
in seven to ten days. You can't say that, here's my card number, but you can't charge it for seven to ten days. They charge it right away, but yet when they get their items back, oh, it's seven to ten business days for the refund to go back. I hate that. It should be illegal. That is ridiculous. Someone is just sitting there with your money for seven to ten days, and that's not an accident. It could go
back instantly. Like with Ashley, they said, if you bring us the card, it'll go back instantly, but if you don't bring us the card, it'll take seven to ten days. That's bullshit. That's just them trying to keep that in their positive accounts as long as they can, and it's it's crap. I hate that. Oh I hate that. Say I'm gonna I hate that rant I really am, because I hate idiots. That's an idiotic policy. This whole unrealized capital gains brew haha online. That's just idiots because it
doesn't affect them. It only affects eleven thousand people, doesn't affect them. They're fricking morons. Donald Trump trying to act like he has some leverage in the debate when he's either tied or losing in every state he has. No, she doesn't need the debate. She don't whip your ass, and now he wants to mic on so he can cut her off and be rude. That's idiotic. A lot of it's idiotic to go out to eat for two people and have it be ninety dollars at a normal
restaurant that used to be fine dining. I don't eat McDonald's, I would never eat McDonald's. I don't eat McDonald's McDonald's evil. But my neighbors eat McDonald's every morning. And so I stopped him yesterday and I said, hey, I see that you eat a McDonald's every morning. What do you get? And he says, I get four hash browns and two breakfast sandwiches for me and my brother. And I'm like, and how much is that? And you said right around
twenty dollars? And my face just cracked. I'm like, what like, two breakfast sandwiches, four hash browns, and two cups of coffee is over twenty bucks at McDonald's. He's like, yeah, it's twenty five with tacks and the coffees and everything. I'm like, so you spend twenty five dollars a day on breakfast and he says, we only do it three days a week. And I'm like, okay, soe he spend
seventy five dollars a week on breakfast. It's like he goes, well, you know, we could only get one hash brown and then it would only be and I'm well, how much is the meal? He goes, well, the breakfast sandwich, the hash brown, and the coffee meal is eight ninety nine. And I was like, I haven't been there in a long time. I was My gasp was flabbered. I was like, what what you know? And that's the America that we're
in right now. It's just it's hard. People are nickel and dimingus as I ask you for five bucks a month. I know, I know, I know. Why do you think it's hard for me to ask it? Almost there are times I just want to quit the show because I don't want to have to ask you guys for money. You know, because everybody is Hulu, Netflix, Amazon, you know most of you have one of these these things. Here do you all have one of these things? This is my TV in tennis. See. It's so I can get
free TV over the air. Most of you have now because you just can't afford any of the others. So you watch the Ion TV and you watch the you know, you watch the Old Movie Channel or whatever, but you ain't getting the premium shows on Apple iTunes. Now. To rent a movie is nineteen ninety five. To buy it is twenty four ninety nine, So it's twenty bucks to rent twenty five to buy. Oh that comes down after months. But new rentals things right out of the theater, like
Long Legs. We got Long Legs on our family plan. Tyler rent or bought Long Legs, and we're on the family plan so we could all watch it. It was horrible, by the way, ninety percent on the Tomato Meter. Biggest grossing independent film of twenty twenty four. Long Legs. It was terrible. It was so horrible. The lead character. I wanted him to kill her. I was like, please kill her, you know, And Nick Cage is in it for probably eight minutes, maybe ten, and that's it. It was terrible.
But he's spent twenty five dollars to buy the move. I said, Tyler, you should not. He goes what was twenty to rent? And I'm just like, well, then we could have waited. So a lot of pet peeves today, you know, and I know that you're see that. And that's the problem with this election. There is righteous anger from everybody. I mean, we all should be angry that going to the grocery store is like a bankrupting experience. We all should be angry that our social lives are
niled because we can't afford it. We'll talk more about it tomorrow and I won't be interrupted by my song. I am Corelbee who you want to be, So I don't hurt nobody. I told you my mind was full today. There's just so much that my brains. But well, we'll sort it out throughout the week. We'll get well, keep your card in the letter, the comments coming, and Mike can subscribe all of that. Cleave blade plathe. We need the engagement, honey, I need the bloodcasting from a completely
different point of view yours. Listen daily to the Corell Cast on your favorite streaming service mo
