There's No Stopping the Rampant Ridiculous

is the Crell Cast. I am Carrel, so very glad you are joining me on this Tuesday, October first, first of all, Happy birthday to my favorite interview of all time, Jimmy Carter. President. Jimmy Carter turns one hundred today, the oldest living president. No other presidents made it to one hundred. Jimmy Carter has. They're having celebrations for him today in Georgia. He's very weak, he's in hospice. His goal, his mission to live a few more weeks to vote for Kamala Harris.

What a fabulous, fabulous mission that is. So we wish him nothing but joyous and happy birthdays. October first in Las Vegas is a solemn day. It is the day the shooter went up in Mandalay Bay and laid out at that delayed people out at that country festival, which was completely horrible. I watched it live on television and it was it was horrific. Not that a mass shooting, you know. Oh well, can you name a mass shooting that was fun? No? I cannot. So that was absolutely terrible.

That happened today, And today is Music Advocacy Day. This is the day that around the country, Grammy members myself included, meet with our representatives. In this afternoon, I'll be meeting with the staff at Susie Lee's office, Representative Susie Lee, to talk about matters that really matter to the music industry, including AI and the fake Bill, which says that you we want it to be law that you can't do an image of someone their voice there, you know, make

a song with them without their permission using AI. You know, because technically you could just create an AI hologram of you know, Michael Jackson and put it on tour uh And the technology is already there for that. So we'd like that to be illegal unless the estate or the person UH says okay, you can go ahead and do it. And a couple other bills, Music Tourism bill to bring music tourism into your area and my area. We all

have areas rich in musical history. We'd like for music tourism to be a thing, and it already is a thing. We'd like it to be recognized as a thing. And a ticket bill to take away all the ridiculousness in buying tickets and just one price. What you see is what you get. That's that. So we're gonna go and rally because you know what you gotta go down. You gotta show up. You have to go and meet your lawmakers. I was telling the gut the upstro I said, you know,

you could call and make an appointment. It's like, that's how it's supposed to work. You're supposed to go talk to your lawmakers in your district about what's important to you. I bet ninety nine percent of you listening to me have never gone and talked to your lawmakers ever, and yet you can. That's part of what they have to do. They have to have an office in their constituency to meet with constituents. That's you, that's me. So start arranging

meetings and tell them what's on your mind. All right, So a couple of things. You know, yesterday people are saying my show should have been longer because I did go off on how we have been edging, dumbed down and not knowledged up and that stupid is all around us. And there's a couple more things I found and I loved your comments at YouTube dot com forward slash really correl or at patreon dot com forward slash really correll, where my beloved patrons wor at about eight hundred and

six three dollars a month right now. I'd love to get that up to thirteen hundred. So if you can spare some money, it's Patreon dot com forward slash really correl. Which is odd that I ask about that because I'm going I'm the streaming services have got me pissed off. But first, let's talk about plastic. Plastic is everywhere. It's in our agriculture, it's in our bodies. We're finding it in our brains. It is polluting our ocean. Plastic is bad and one of the biggest culprits plastic grocery bags.

They're absolutely horrifying. The reusable ones are even worse because people keep those in stockpile. Fifty or one hundred of them, and then they got to do something with them. How many of you have like twenty or thirty reusable plastic bags from a store like Sprouts or something, and you don't know what to do with them, so you end up throwing them in the recycle bin. So, plastic bags

are terrible. They're absolutely horrible. And I've never understood why you shouldn't have to bring a bag to the grocery store for your grocery I've never understood this. Uh So, in California, Gavin Newsom just said no more, no more plastic grocery bags. You would have thought that he'd started eating dead fetuses on the Capitol building, you know, on the steps, because people have lost their minds. You know, like a plastic bag is in some way your American right.

You have a right to a plastic bag, No, you freakin don't. They're bad for the environment. They should have never been put into widespread What was wrong with paper? Oh it breaks? Well, then bring a cloth bag, buy a fuck frigging couple grocery bags. Cloth will always forget him in the car. Well, that's your freaking fault. Then carry your groceries in your arms. You know, I mean get a box whatever, like Costco. You know, Costco is

one of the biggest, biggest stores around. No plastic bags, okay, none, never had them. They used the box is from the items that they have in the store, and somehow they manage to do business and sell a lot of products without plastic bags. Who'd have known. So it is stupid for anyone to be going after Gavin Newsom because he banned plastic bags. That's what I was talking about yesterday. Smart people have to simply start making the choices for the idiots. And no one wants that except Maga. They

want their dictator Trump to make all their decisions. But liberals, progressives, we've got to let smart people start making more decisions because dumb people are ruling. The next thing that should be banned plastic water bottles. You don't need a plastic water bottle. If you want to buy water, bring your own container, and it shouldn't be plastic. There. I see these people with cases of water bottles and I just think those are going right in the ocean. That's just stupid.

It is stupid to sell water in a bottle that is plastic. Go back to glass, come up with another bottle. Something that decomposes whatever, be smarter than the plastic. But no, plastic is made out of petroleum, so the petroleum industry wants you to keep using all that plastic. No, it's dumb that anyone would attack Gavin Newsom for banning plastic bags. They should be banned nationally tomorrow. So should plastic water bottles. Make water bottles out of something else better. Yet, bring

your own reusable containers. But it's like in the store, packaging is another thing that should just be done away with. You want some macaroni, bring something to put it in. This notion that everything should be in a box or a bag, or it's so ridiculous, it's stupid, say with me from yesterday. That's just stupid. You know what else? And welcome to the chatroom at YouTube dot com forward slash Really Carrel, I am in the chat room right now looking at comments. Hi mister Chris who asked if

I went to the rally on Sunday. No, I did not go inside the rally on Sunday, but I did go play my song on the outside of the rally, and I was hoping someone from inside would tell me if it played like it was supposed to. But we'll see. We find out today some sort of timeline for the song, but we'll see if that even happens. The campaign has been really farting us around on the song, but whatever, I'm not bitter. It's not common of it's doing it. It's the people around her. I'm not even sure she's

heard it yet. But so yesterday I was watching Hulu and the ads were about to drive me fricking crazy. And then I get a notice that Hulu is going from seven ninety nine to nine ninety nine with ads, and if you don't want to add it's eighteen ninety nine. Amazon Prime has now got ads in their videos. Netflix

now has ads. So let me get this right. Streaming services, you became really popular because we wanted to cut the cable get away from cable television watch what we want when we want to watch it without ads, and we were willing to pay for that. But now, without even asking us, you've put ads back in. So I ask each and every one of you, why don't we all go back to cable with a TiVo, because at least then we can record what we want to watch and skip the ads. Now, look, I know that we need

advertising to make commercial things go. I get that, I understand, But when you pay a large fee, not a little fee, It's like we're being charged a dollar ninety nine for Hulu, ten dollars a month, one hundred and twenty dollars a year, and then you've still got ads. You add in a few other services and you're right back to the car. So now most of us are paying more for streaming than we were for cable, and we're watching ads again. Boy,

what a great gimmick for them. They're on track to make a billion dollars off of their advertising on streaming services, a billion while they rake you for ten ninety nine, twelve ninety nine, fourteen. Apple is going up, I think to forty plus dollars for Apple TV Plus and all of their other services. Just Apple TV Plus I think is going up to like fifty earth would they say one hundred a year or two one ninety nine year? I forget, but it's going up. They're all going up.

And yet they just throw away money. Willy nilly, let's spend money. They spend money on these horrifying projects. They throw twenty million at Shonda Rhymes and fifteen million at Ryan Murphy and one hundred million at this and blah blah blah that. Oh but they're broken. They got to charge you more money and put in ads. Why not go back to cable with a tvo TiVo still exists.

Why not just go back record? You know, because like people watch a lot of their shows now on Hulu or Paramount Plus or Peacock, Well why not just record them off of NBC or ABC or CBS or TNT or Fax or whatever, off of your cable package onto a t VO and then just fast forward. Why pay anymore? We don't get to watch what we want, when we want it, not without ads, not unless we pay a fortune. Streaming has become stupid. It is stupid to pay for streaming.

It's just dumb. And so I barely do. I barely do. I get some through the press. I'm on Steve's Netflix, I'm on the Late Daniel Charleston's HBO Paramount Plus. I get free because I'm in the media. Peacock. I do pay for five ninety nine watch ads and Hulu. I only paid for for three months to watch three shows, and then I'm gonna cancel it. I don't have the money for all the streaming, but be I just refuse to pay them and have ads. I know there's ads in my show for you patrons, there's not live. If

you patrons watch the show live, there's no ads. Otherwise I'd make zero off the show, like nothing. So patrons, I try to make it up to you in other ways with calls, exclusive content, you know, discounts if I ever get back out on the road, discounts to tickets, all that kind of stuff. These other services they don't try to do anything special for you. Guys, just take your money and then make you watch ads. And the ads. Oh my god, they're driving me crazy. They're all political ads,

and they're all horrible. They're every one of them is horrible. Trump ads are horrible, even Kamala's ads. I am just so tired of hearing it. All. My mind is made up. I don't need to see these ads. Oh my god. Okay, let's see. Streaming services are now ridiculous. We pay a streaming service to watch their shows, they now service ads. TiVo and Cable were, in fact better. They were. It was better. We watched what we wanted to when we

wanted and we fast forwarded through the ads. So why don't we go back because the major services don't want us to. If I were a cable company, I would come on with a one hundred dollars a month everything, all broadcast channels, HBO send all of it, just everything, Hulu all included hundred bucks a month. They'd sell it all, right, cav Let's see, Verizon went down yesterday for millions and millions of people and they had no phone service. And

that's just stupid. Why don't we have stay it with me? That's just stupid. Why don't phone services have satellite backup? More importantly, why don't all of our phones have satellite backup? We rich people do? People in Ashville, North Carolina are acting like they are on Mars. There are mules bringing in supplies. Why aren't there drones bringing in supplies? I hear all about drones. Where's the drones bringing in supplies to remote areas? Why are they using mules? People still

can't reach people because cell service is down. Yesterday Verizon went down. These companies have zero backup, zero redundancy. If one thing goes wrong, that's it. Well, that's dumb, that's just stupid. Every cell phone company should have satellite backup. If their cell service goes down, your cell phone should switch to satellite and you're still able to make calls, not just if you're risk. When we come back Cafe best Field in San Francisco, it's the harbinger of dooms

for most restaurants, and we will tell you why. Although that's the big date in walls hurts. Maybe then then be wearing a much eyeliner and masacerra if I web yesterday, probably, but we'll talk Abay Carrel here And I'd like to take a moment to thank all the patrons of Patrio on.

We're not going back. We're not giving in. We are going to fight, cause when we fight, we win. Oh, you know the whole

plastic bag thing. That's what I said yesterday. You know, we know what's right, we know what's best. There are smart people who know, but they refuse to implement things like Gavin. You know he doesn't. He's not afraid to. They're afraid to implement things like Gavin because they're afraid they'll be taken over the coals. Like Davin is California should rejoice that he's getting rid of plastic bags. Instead, they're all up in Oh it's some sort of god

given right to have a plastic bag at a grocery store. No, I don't even use their cart. I have a wagon. Why don't you, Why don't you have a cart for groceries of your own? And now they have these carts that have crates and you just put all your groceries in there and then when you get in the car, you just you just transfer the crate. You don't even need a bag. I mean, we can't be smarter, of course we can. God, So Cafe Bestille in San Francisco is closing the end of an era. It was a

little alley. I've been there actually, and it was a great restaurant. A little overpriced, but you know, and they're closing. And here in Nevada, the gay hotel called Bent in downtown just opened eight months ago, closing. And they're all citing the economy. They're saying, you know, we're just not getting the business. You know, they're blaming a lot of things. But I have to tell you there are two things that have killed a lot of restaurants. Two things. First,

the pandemic. The pandemic changed the way that we eat. Most of us couldn't go eat out. The restaurants were closed, and we got in a habit of either ordering food in which I refuse to do. Talk about stupid grub Hub and all of them. You have a twenty five dollars bill that ends up being forty dollars. That's just stupid. Don't use them. Don't use grub hub or door dash or any of them. And restaurants should go back to delivering their food themselves period they'd sell more. See that's

the other thing. Restaurants outsource their deliveries to grub hub, door dash and all of that, and now we don't want to use those places because they're costing us too much money, so we're not buying from the restaurant, and the restaurant's blaming you and I or whatever. It's ridiculous. Go back to delivering your own food and you'll have a lot more orders. Hire some eighteen year old, you know,

paying fifteen bucks an hour to deliver your food. So the two things the pandemic changed the way that we eat. It just did. We couldn't go out for almost two years to restaurants, and drive throughs remained big because we could drive through, but sit down restaurants Nope. And then when they did come back after the pandemic, their entree prices were double or triple, and they blamed supply chain

and labor cost and blah blah blah. But the fact is lunch went from ten bucks to twenty to twenty five bucks, and dinners went from twenty to twenty five bucks to fifty to seventy five bucks. And you and I don't have that at least not as much as we used to. We may go out to lunch once a week whereas we went out four times a week before. We may go to dinner once a month whereas we

went out a couple times a month. We're not going out to eat because it's just too expensive, and so restaurants are closing, including vegan ones, especially vegan ones, and they're blaming inflation. But it's not inflation. First of all, it's we changed the way that we eat. Of all, they more than doubled and tripled their prices. That's not inflation. That's greed. And if you say it's the cost of doing business, well that means that's your cost of doing

business is too high. You got to lower it. You know, there's a place here called Salad to Go just opened, and they're all over now and you can drive through and you can get a salad, a delicious salad, and a drink for ten bucks. There is always a line

from the moment they opened. There's a line because ten bucks for lunch is doable, So people drive through in the mornings and get their When I'm at the park at eight in the morning, Salad to Go has a line people driving through to get their lunches because a ten buck lunch is doable. That very same salad at a sit down restaurant, twenty bucks, the very same one with pecans and raspberries and this and Brussels sprouts from that twenty bucks at a sit down restaurant, ten bucks

at Salad to God to go. Well, last sit down restaurants won't. And so it's really just if they can't afford to get entrees at the price that we can pay, then of course they're gonna close. And so either there were too many restaurants before or before the pandemic, or we are just now more frugal. So are very much like your comments below at YouTube dot com forward slash really correl or at patreon dot com forward slash really correl. How many times a month do you eat out now?

How many times versus how many times did you eat out before the pandemic. How many times before the pandemic did you eat out every month, every week, whatever? And how many times now after the pandemic in today's world do you eat out? I'd love to see those numbers, like did you eat out five or ten times a month before the pandemic including lunch and dinner and now you only eat out one or two times? And are you cooking? Is there this cooking resurgence now because if

we're not eating at restaurants, we're eating at home? Or are you eating? Drive through have more and even they've gone way up, but have more and more people switched to drive through because at least they're a little cheaper. So I'd love to hear from you. Why do you feel restaurants are closing at record rates? I think it's two things. Are eating habits changed during the pandemic, and then when we came back from the pandemic, the price is tripled, just like overnight. My one of my favorite

Thai restaurants I love, I love Number nine Tie. I used to go there for lunch once a week and I would get vegan Ladna, which I love, vegan laudna and a mixed vegetable dish, which was two entrees, but they were each eleven dollars, so I got twenty two bucks plus tips of twenty five dollars. Now those entrees are sixteen ninety five each, so it would be forty bucks. So I don't go anymore. I just they went up

from eleven ninety five to sixteen ninety five. That's ten dollars, you know, and so I just I can't do it. I go to cheaper places, my lazies. Indian Cuisine still has their vegan lunch for nineteen dollars and it's enough to have for lunch and dinner, and that's all in nineteen with a samosa and pecoras and some soup and two entrees and rice. So I go there because it's under twenty bucks. How about you, how many times before

the pandemic did you eat out versus now? And are you thinking it's is it the cost that is preventing you? I'd love to hear that. I'd love to hear from you. All Right, we got a lot. I have to write it down because everyone's like, you write out your shows and then you don't get to everything, and they're right. I go off on tangents and all of that. So and and we're going to pictures today for Music Advocacy Day.

So tomorrow I will show you guys photos of me and Angela Windbush, me and Chris Cox, the multi platinum DJ producer. Oh yeah, so you'll see all that tomorrow. And this I'll be changing. I will not be wearing this. Look at me. I am changing. So I read today that there are actually people that could change their vote tonight after the vice presidential debate, and I said, yeah, they're called idiots. It's happening tonight. So the last debate of the season since Trump is a coward and will

not debate Kamala again. And everyone's like, oh, I'm gonna watch, I'm gonna watch. You know, Tim Walls is a mess. I'm sorry, WHOA sorry? Jd Oh See Now, if I were bigger, the right would grab that mistake and use it as a I'm jd Vance. I didn't want to say his name, even jd Vance is a mess, an eyeline mascara wearing mess who admits that he lies, that he makes stuff up if it, you know, if it helps his campaign. He is more evil than Donald Trump.

Hard to believe. Because Trump is just a narcissistic sociopath looking out for just himself. Jd Vance actually wants to take down a nation, like take it down. So I will be watching tonight and I'm hoping Tim Walls is his affable self but also gets serious with this guy and Paul. I hope he pulverizes him. He needs to verbally smack him all night because I do not want Tim Walls to win. It would be bad. It would be bad for the Harris campaign if Trump campaign gets

traction out of tonight. So I really need Tim Walls to kick jd Vance's you know, Haley Joe Alsman's evil twin ass, because that's what he is. He's Haley Joe Alsman's evil twin and I really really want his butt kick tonight. You know they're eating the dogs, they're eating the cats. No, they ain't because jd Vance is evil, But so is Donald Trump, so is Magas, so is the GOP. They're all evil and oh you can't call them evil. Yeah they're evil. I know evil when I

see it and when I hear it. Trump Vance, all of them. Lindsey Graham, who's the old fart, got him forgetting his name. I can see him zoning out, Oh what's his name? Oh why am I zoning out? Lindsey Graham and Mitch McConnell, that's because they want to remember his name. They're all evil, all of them, and Vance is just as evil as the rest. An opportunist who was gay at one time, told, told everyone, came out he was gay and then suddenly whoops, no I'm not.

I'm sorry. You don't wake up one day and say I really love to have sex with men and then a few months later decides it was just a phase. Gay is not a phase. If you have sex with men, you are by if you still like women. So at best jd. Vance Vance seem sophisticated. Then at best jd. Vance is by who hides his bisexuality, and my gaitar blitz with him, so I'm quite just like he did with Mike Pence. What is some of these VP candidates. Mike Pence was a closeted gay guy, and now JD.

Vance closeted gay guy. And that's not even an accusation. He says he came out to his grandparents, he came out to all of his family, and you know he ain't loving his wife the way he talks about immigrants and such. So yeah, no, so we'll all watch, we'll all sing we're not going back, and we will hope we'll root for Tim. Go, Tim go, Tim go. But you know what, I could kill a lot of people are like, I'm not gonna watch. Well, I could care less.

I'm voting for Commelin no matter what. And I agree, but we just don't want them to get any momentum from tonight, and hopefully they won't. Hopefully Tim is prepared, and hopefully he'll he'll be affable, and he'll be approachable, and he'll be honest and real, but he'll also be presidential because remember that is the one thing we're looking for tonight. Which one of these a holes. Tim Walls was not an a hole, but you know what I mean,

Which one of these candidates could actually be president? Because Trump ain't going to last four years. Just know that if he wins, he ain't lasting four years. It will be president vance at some point. Okay, So that's why we got to be very careful and that Tim Walls needs to smack him around tonight. Verbally. Let's see, I always cook, But then again, I was a line cook. Well, yeah, the let's see too much before and after, like two to three times a week, each time it was forty

or fifty bucks. Yep, yep, hell, I hear going to Starbucks is now a ten dollars experience. I don't go, but is it? Is? Your coffee at Starbucks now like six seven, eight dollars? Really? You know, I'll leave you with this. I told you earlier on Friday, I showed you all how to make macha. Do you know what

I did today? Yesterday actually and today. I took my six ounces of the macha that I made, put it in a blender glass with a quarter cup of nut milk and a tablespoon of a god, and then whizzed it about like a Boothe sort of poured it over I and made a Manta lata. Oh my god, it's so good. Just stick bound to the manta bee, quarter cup of nut milk of your choice or oat milk, and then a tablespoon of a godin It's broadcasting from a completely different point of view yours.
