We Told You So Again!

[00:00:00] We Go. That's better. I'm just saying.

[00:00:03] Oh, there you go. You're in the telly.

[00:00:06] Yeah, it makes it look a little less open.

[00:00:10] I was going to say, we should be streaming, but I haven't gotten the old YouTube notification.

[00:00:14] Streaming Mimi. It's pretty instantaneous.

[00:00:18] There it is.

[00:00:20] Instant mashed potatoes.

[00:00:26] And do our obligatory audio check. We have audio. We're live, baby.

[00:00:29] Hey, welcome. One and all. All in one.

[00:00:34] You to the Average Intelligence Podcast.

[00:00:37] Tonight's podcast is brought to you by our friends at ToonTalk 2.0

[00:00:41] and the Complete Guide to Happiness with Dr. Fantastic.

[00:00:45] We'll talk about both of those later, but tonight we get to gloat in the dark.

[00:00:51] I told you so.

[00:00:52] Oh, big time, dude.

[00:00:54] The past couple of weeks up, Sosa. Yeah, Sosa is going to be joining us next week.

[00:00:58] I can't remember. We'll talk about it off air.

[00:01:00] But yeah, Sosa is going to be joining us for another round of reviewing Dragon Ball Dima

[00:01:04] because I need to get caught up.

[00:01:08] It's bad. I'm so far behind.

[00:01:09] I've been caught up on it.

[00:01:11] It's just, yeah.

[00:01:14] It's okay. It's nothing to write home about.

[00:01:17] Although, real quick.

[00:01:18] Get into it.

[00:01:18] Real quick. Could you do me a favor, my good friend?

[00:01:21] What's up?

[00:01:22] See that beautiful award behind you?

[00:01:26] Can you grab that for the folks real quick?

[00:01:28] Because I'm here to announce the 2024 Arty Awards voting starts tomorrow.

[00:01:38] And this year, all of you get a say in what podcast win.

[00:01:43] No.

[00:01:45] It reads.

[00:01:46] Okay, good.

[00:01:46] So we're looking to defend our title and win podcast of the year.

[00:01:52] And, well, we're looking to win everything, obviously.

[00:01:55] But you, and I'll send you the link, Sosa.

[00:02:00] And for those of you watching the live stream tonight, the link is not there

[00:02:03] because the voting doesn't go live until noon tomorrow.

[00:02:06] But I'm going to go in and add it.

[00:02:08] So if you're watching this Thursday, the 5th, at noon, or later,

[00:02:14] it'll be the first link in the description.

[00:02:19] So go vote.

[00:02:21] Vote for us.

[00:02:24] Because we're the OGs, man.

[00:02:25] We're the first ones.

[00:02:27] Fuck everybody else, even though they have.

[00:02:29] At least within our network.

[00:02:31] Oh, within our network.

[00:02:31] Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.

[00:02:32] Because it's voting for, it's the Arty Awards, the Arty Media Awards.

[00:02:36] But anyway, so do that.

[00:02:39] And tonight's all about gloating.

[00:02:40] Because when I mean, dude, I can't think of a thing that we didn't predict

[00:02:45] that hasn't already come true.

[00:02:47] Like, it's been insane for years now.

[00:02:51] I'll be honest.

[00:02:52] I did not actually see him pardoning Hunter.

[00:02:59] I didn't see it.

[00:03:01] I mean, I didn't think he would be that stupid.

[00:03:05] Like, I'm not trying to say, like, I know it's his kid.

[00:03:09] And it's like, if it was my kid, I don't care what anyone says.

[00:03:13] I'd do it.

[00:03:14] But I'm not saying he's a smart man.

[00:03:18] But I'm saying he already said he wasn't going to.

[00:03:21] So that's the problem.

[00:03:23] He's not a smart man.

[00:03:25] But he knows what love is.

[00:03:31] No, dude.

[00:03:32] And the thing is, I didn't predict specifically that he would pardon him.

[00:03:36] But I did predict that Hunter would get off the hook somehow.

[00:03:40] And I said, if he gets convicted at one point, I don't remember what episode I set it in.

[00:03:46] If you really want to school me, you can go back and look.

[00:03:52] But yeah, when he pardoned him, I was just like, yeah.

[00:03:55] But what's interesting, though, is that pardon extends all the way back to the Burisma stuff.

[00:04:01] And I'm over here just kind of like, so that's another thing we called is like the Biden crime thing.

[00:04:09] Yeah, they're guilty.

[00:04:10] They're guilty of sin.

[00:04:11] All the way back to 2014, if that doesn't tell you.

[00:04:15] Like, the thing is, if Biden didn't know about what Hunter's dealings were, it wouldn't have been so precise.

[00:04:26] 2014.

[00:04:27] Like, I understand it's 10 years.

[00:04:28] He's probably like, man, how much have you fucked up in 10 years?

[00:04:31] We need to make sure you got at least 10 years.

[00:04:33] I can't help you pass that.

[00:04:38] He's pardoning Fauci.

[00:04:39] Yeah, that's stupid.

[00:04:41] I'm sorry, but all these people.

[00:04:46] That's crazy.

[00:04:47] Is it true?

[00:04:48] Yeah.

[00:04:49] Biden aids mulling preemptive pardons for Dr. Fauci, Liz Cheney, Adam.

[00:04:53] Is it Adam Schiff?

[00:04:55] Yeah, Adam Schiff.

[00:04:55] I don't want to hear a fucking word about anybody else ever again when it comes to that shit.

[00:05:04] But that's just it, dude.

[00:05:06] For literal years, we've been talking about on this very podcast about the Trump witch hunt.

[00:05:13] And it is a witch hunt.

[00:05:14] We said it.

[00:05:15] We've been saying it from the beginning.

[00:05:17] And you'll notice, I repeatedly said that if Trump wins, all the cases will just vanish.

[00:05:25] Because they're not going to take them.

[00:05:27] They're all gone.

[00:05:28] Every case is gone.

[00:05:30] Everyone.

[00:05:31] It's gone.

[00:05:32] It's all gone.

[00:05:33] They're gone.

[00:05:34] It's all gone.

[00:05:36] It's all gone.

[00:05:36] No, seriously.

[00:05:37] It's all gone.

[00:05:39] Every bit of it is gone.

[00:05:40] There's nothing that they're going after him for anymore.

[00:05:44] Which we've been saying from the beginning.

[00:05:46] Like, here's the thing.

[00:05:47] And this is the frustrating thing for me.

[00:05:49] Is the fact that they never seem to go after Trump on the legitimate things.

[00:05:58] I don't necessarily mean legally.

[00:05:59] But I mean when they're talking about policy.

[00:06:02] Or when they're debating him.

[00:06:04] Or when they're...

[00:06:04] They never go after the stuff that's legitimate.

[00:06:06] Because they know it's mostly good policy.

[00:06:10] Well, no, no, no.

[00:06:10] So, for example.

[00:06:11] For example here.

[00:06:12] I'm trying to think of a really good example.

[00:06:14] Like, Trump does say stupid shit periodically.

[00:06:16] He does.

[00:06:17] I don't care what he says.

[00:06:19] As long as policy makes sense.

[00:06:21] But here's my point.

[00:06:22] They even twist that.

[00:06:23] And the thing is.

[00:06:24] Because they've spent so much time.

[00:06:26] Better part of...

[00:06:29] Eight plus years.

[00:06:32] Going after all the stupid shit.

[00:06:34] Now when they go after him for anything.

[00:06:36] People don't take him seriously.

[00:06:37] Because they've never gone after anything legitimate.

[00:06:40] So, Trump's nigh untouchable now.

[00:06:42] What the fuck are you eating?

[00:06:46] What are you eating?

[00:06:49] What?

[00:06:50] What are you...

[00:06:50] Don't look at me like that.

[00:06:51] What are you eating?

[00:06:52] That your dog?

[00:06:54] Yeah.

[00:06:54] What?

[00:06:55] What are you eating?

[00:06:56] Yeah.

[00:06:56] What are you eating?

[00:06:58] Stop it.

[00:06:59] Stop it.

[00:07:00] She didn't catch it?

[00:07:02] No.

[00:07:03] Are you eating out of people's lunches?

[00:07:05] Stop it.

[00:07:11] Oh, man.

[00:07:13] He's a podcaster.

[00:07:16] This is just...

[00:07:18] It's like a TV show.

[00:07:21] A bad one.

[00:07:25] Well, I don't know.

[00:07:26] We're getting to the redemption arc here.

[00:07:28] So, it's going to get good.

[00:07:29] What is it?

[00:07:30] Ben Shapiro said a few weeks ago.

[00:07:32] He was like...

[00:07:32] Man.

[00:07:33] The writers for Trump season 8.

[00:07:35] Chef's kiss.

[00:07:39] Speaking of Daily Wire, did you hear about some...

[00:07:43] Well, I don't know if it's true or not, but apparently Brett Cooper might be leaving there.

[00:07:47] I don't know why.

[00:07:48] I'm not heard of that.

[00:07:49] I don't know if you know anything about it.

[00:07:50] Okay.

[00:07:51] I wasn't sure.

[00:07:52] I don't know.

[00:07:53] I figured there was no reason for her to leave.

[00:07:55] I can understand Candace Owens.

[00:07:57] They had a falling out, so it's a little different.

[00:07:59] But Brett Cooper just seems like...

[00:08:02] Well, it's a thing.

[00:08:04] She's a female Ben Shapiro.

[00:08:05] South Park.

[00:08:06] We're just entertainment failing.

[00:08:07] Yeah.

[00:08:08] Well, apparently she has...

[00:08:12] Apparently she has left.

[00:08:15] But I don't see from any legitimate media source.

[00:08:27] Why?

[00:08:29] Well, because I'm seeing a lot of stuff on Instagram and anymovie.com and tigerdroppings.com.

[00:08:36] Well, wait.

[00:08:37] She was supposed to be in...

[00:08:40] Their Snow White movie, yeah.

[00:08:42] Have they already filmed it or is it just...

[00:08:44] I do not know.

[00:08:46] Okay.

[00:08:47] Well, that's not...

[00:08:48] That's unfortunate for them.

[00:08:51] Yeah, but nobody said anything official.

[00:08:54] The only statement is a video from Ian Carroll, who I don't even know who the fuck that is.

[00:08:59] It's on Twitter, though.

[00:09:00] You didn't like Brett Cooper or Sosa?

[00:09:02] I didn't really care for her.

[00:09:04] I didn't hate her.

[00:09:05] I didn't like her.

[00:09:07] I didn't dislike her.

[00:09:08] To be honest, Ben Shapiro is Daily Wire.

[00:09:12] I like Michael Knowles, but that's pretty much it.

[00:09:16] I don't really care for her.

[00:09:17] I mean, Michael Knowles is...

[00:09:18] I mean, not Michael Knowles.

[00:09:19] I'm sorry.

[00:09:20] Matt Walsh is up there now because his documentaries have gotten him quite a bit of notoriety.

[00:09:25] That's true.

[00:09:25] Okay.

[00:09:25] Yeah, yeah.

[00:09:26] Sorry.

[00:09:26] But I would still...

[00:09:28] Matt Walsh.

[00:09:28] But I like Michael Knowles.

[00:09:30] Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[00:09:30] And fair enough.

[00:09:31] I prefer Michael Knowles to Matt Walsh, just as a personality.

[00:09:36] I don't dislike Matt Walsh, man.

[00:09:38] It's literally just his delivery.

[00:09:39] And like, it's because he's so...

[00:09:42] You know, da-da-da-da-da.

[00:09:44] You know, da-da-da-da-da.

[00:09:46] Yeah.

[00:09:46] I will say this about Matt Walsh, though.

[00:09:48] It is very curious to me that...

[00:09:51] Very entertaining.

[00:09:52] Well, no.

[00:09:53] It's very curious to me that people...

[00:09:55] Because a lot of what he says is obviously a joke, but people take it seriously.

[00:10:01] Now, I don't know if they believe it's serious or they're just using it to latch on to criticize, but like, it's obviously a joke.

[00:10:08] So, man, I don't like that Andrew Wilson guy.

[00:10:13] Like, I do not like him.

[00:10:14] Like, I think some of the things he says are very, like, decent.

[00:10:19] But like, how he talks, he, like, speaks with such feeling.

[00:10:25] Like, I don't know how to explain it.

[00:10:26] He seems like he's always in his feelings.

[00:10:28] Like, he doesn't ever, like, come across...

[00:10:30] I don't know.

[00:10:31] He seems kind of like a little bitch man.

[00:10:34] I don't even know who that is.

[00:10:36] Andrew Wilson, the guy on whatever podcast.

[00:10:39] The guy who's always in the room smoking.

[00:10:41] Oh, that fucking guy?

[00:10:42] Yeah, I don't know.

[00:10:42] Oh, wait.

[00:10:43] No, not that guy.

[00:10:43] But the thing is, he debated...

[00:10:45] Well, what was it?

[00:10:47] Destiny.

[00:10:47] And I liked it when he was destroying Destiny.

[00:10:51] That was fine.

[00:10:52] But like, when he's talking to women and whatnot, it's like...

[00:10:55] I don't know, dude.

[00:10:56] He's just...

[00:10:58] Okay, that guy.

[00:10:59] I know they're 304s, but man, like...

[00:11:02] Like, he talks to them like they're dirt.

[00:11:05] Okay, so this...

[00:11:06] But this goes back to the whole...

[00:11:09] Nymton books kid.

[00:11:10] Sorry, so sorry.

[00:11:12] He says, oh my God.

[00:11:13] How dare you?

[00:11:14] No, but this goes back to the whole, like,

[00:11:16] Nymton books kid.

[00:11:17] It's like, okay.

[00:11:22] Debate somebody who actually knows what they're talking about.

[00:11:25] Yeah, really.

[00:11:26] It's not a win.

[00:11:29] Oh, I get what you mean.

[00:11:30] Yeah, yeah.

[00:11:31] That's what I'm saying.

[00:11:32] I think if you've got some...

[00:11:33] And here's the thing.

[00:11:34] I'm not...

[00:11:35] I think if you get somebody that's actually, like,

[00:11:39] a learned feminist on there,

[00:11:41] she would destroy them.

[00:11:44] Apparently, in the comments here,

[00:11:47] Sosa said, watch her...

[00:11:49] Watch, yeah, her debate Andrew Wilson.

[00:11:51] So apparently she debated him.

[00:11:53] And is she, like, somewhat a feminist or whatnot?

[00:11:56] He says he destroys her as a femi.

[00:11:59] I would consider her as a...

[00:12:01] I would consider her more of, like, a second wave feminist, but...

[00:12:05] Which I don't have any issue with second wave feminism.

[00:12:08] I'm on board with that.

[00:12:10] That being said...

[00:12:12] So second wave would just be, like, legitimate equality.

[00:12:16] Oh, yeah.

[00:12:17] Like, you know how all the laws now are equal?

[00:12:20] Yeah, that's good.

[00:12:22] Yeah, that's essentially...

[00:12:23] That's a good spot.

[00:12:24] That's essentially second wave feminism, if I'm not mistaken.

[00:12:27] And somebody can correct me in the comments if I'm wrong.

[00:12:29] Second...

[00:12:30] Excuse me.

[00:12:31] Second wave feminism.

[00:12:33] I would just say it's just...

[00:12:34] Well, I know, but at the time.

[00:12:35] At the time, though.

[00:12:37] Because...

[00:12:37] I know.

[00:12:38] I mean, it's my best.

[00:12:39] There was a time when it wasn't equal.

[00:12:41] Second wave feminism would...

[00:12:43] Yeah.

[00:12:44] No, I was just going to say, as Sosa said, no one from Daily Wire will debate him.

[00:12:49] Andrew Wilson or anyone from a Red Pill side.

[00:12:51] I don't...

[00:12:51] Honestly, I don't see them wasting their time with those kind of guys.

[00:12:56] Because, honestly, all they do is, like, bring on sex workers and whatnot.

[00:13:01] And Daily Wire, like, they don't bring on just hoes who are on OnlyFans and whatnot.

[00:13:08] And just degrade them.

[00:13:09] Like, don't get me wrong.

[00:13:10] I mean, they're degrading themselves.

[00:13:12] But, I mean...

[00:13:16] I mean...

[00:13:17] What?

[00:13:17] What?

[00:13:18] I'm sorry.

[00:13:19] I'm still perpetually...

[00:13:22] Are they really then an empty node?

[00:13:24] They want viable anthrax and God knows what else.

[00:13:28] I'm going to need context for that, Sosa.

[00:13:32] I don't know, brother.

[00:13:33] I think Ben Shapiro wouldn't mop Andrew Wilson easily.

[00:13:38] It depends on what they're talking about, though.

[00:13:42] No, I think any topic.

[00:13:44] I mean, generally speaking, and this is kind of my problem with the Red Pill guys as they stand now, is that it's kind of done.

[00:13:51] Yeah, it's pretty much dead.

[00:13:54] Like...

[00:13:54] I mean, it was a great awakening.

[00:13:58] Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[00:13:58] But I think the only people that are still watching shows...

[00:14:01] Sosa.

[00:14:02] Yeah.

[00:14:03] I think the vast majority of the people that are watching those shows still, like the Fresh and Fitz and all that, I think those are guys, for the most part, that just have negative feelings about women, generally speaking.

[00:14:17] Like, not everybody, but the majority.

[00:14:21] Because, again, that kind of content's kind of phased out a bit.

[00:14:25] Like, viewership is now.

[00:14:27] But I will say, though, I do every now and then, it's guilty pleasure, but I do...

[00:14:33] Oh, no!

[00:14:33] Don't get me wrong.

[00:14:35] It's entertainment gold.

[00:14:37] It's entertaining.

[00:14:38] But in terms of, like, actually growing your perspective and your knowledge, it's not a...

[00:14:44] Now, this being said, somebody who consumed a lot of Red Pill media for a couple of years, it was...

[00:14:49] It's like you said, it was a great awakening.

[00:14:51] It identified a host of problems.

[00:14:54] You are a huge Tate fan.

[00:14:56] Like, and you made me a Tate fan, so...

[00:14:59] I still am to a point.

[00:15:02] But...

[00:15:04] That's the thing, man.

[00:15:06] That's the thing that we need to get back to, is everybody having different opinions and still getting along.

[00:15:12] Yeah.

[00:15:12] Which we've never stopped.

[00:15:14] We've never stopped.

[00:15:15] Exactly.

[00:15:16] Yeah.

[00:15:16] We've always been that.

[00:15:17] It's just...

[00:15:18] And you know this.

[00:15:18] I've never been able to...

[00:15:20] I've never liked the Whatever Podcast.

[00:15:22] I don't like that fucking Brian guy.

[00:15:24] What's his name?

[00:15:26] You remind me a lot of him.

[00:15:28] That's probably why I don't like him.

[00:15:30] I'm going to be honest.

[00:15:30] I'm going to be real honest.

[00:15:31] I've kind of come to the conclusion that I tend to dislike people that are a little too much like me.

[00:15:37] And I know that about myself now.

[00:15:39] And it's so fucking annoying.

[00:15:41] You know what's funny is?

[00:15:42] He's the only reason I like that podcast.

[00:15:46] And the thing is, I'm sitting there and I'm like, God, I don't fucking like this guy.

[00:15:49] Tell me I ain't loyal.

[00:15:52] I'm sitting there and I'm like, he's probably doing a lot of the same shit that I do.

[00:15:58] Oh, the charges got dropped.

[00:16:00] Tate?

[00:16:01] Oh, did they?

[00:16:02] I didn't know that.

[00:16:03] Yeah, that's what Sosa said.

[00:16:04] I believe it.

[00:16:07] I didn't know if they were dropped or what was going on.

[00:16:12] I don't know either.

[00:16:13] That being said, though, we're here to gloat, damn it.

[00:16:16] Although we...

[00:16:17] Oh, damn.

[00:16:17] To be fair, if that's true, we called it with Tate, too.

[00:16:22] Because we kind of figured that they weren't going to stick, as it were.

[00:16:29] Well, because we both kind of reasoned that if they actually had something hardcore legitimate,

[00:16:33] that, I mean, it would have already been decided right now.

[00:16:37] Same as Trump.

[00:16:39] Yeah, same thing.

[00:16:43] The other thing, non-political thing that we called, is Deadpool 3.

[00:16:47] Also, Deadpool 3 was fucking amazing.

[00:16:51] Called that.

[00:16:52] We knew it was going to be a big...

[00:16:53] And I'll be honest, I still think I'm right in that movie, along with Spider-Man No Way Home.

[00:17:01] I think Spider-Man No Way Home kept the Marvel Universe afloat, and Deadpool and Wolverine saved it by integrating the Fox Marvel Universe into it.

[00:17:11] You know exactly how it happened, was because Ryan Reynolds was like,

[00:17:13] Listen, if you guys don't listen and give the people what they want, they're not going to be buying your tickets.

[00:17:19] I feel like he had to literally have a meeting with the execs and be like, Stop being woke.

[00:17:26] It does not work.

[00:17:27] It's not...

[00:17:27] I don't even think it's that so much, because it depends on the movie.

[00:17:31] A movie can be...

[00:17:32] Well, they're owned by Disney, so...

[00:17:33] Well, I mean, but here's my point.

[00:17:35] A movie can be woke and be good.

[00:17:39] It depends on the...

[00:17:40] No, it depends on the subject matter.

[00:17:41] No, you're absolutely right.

[00:17:43] Don't look up.

[00:17:44] That movie is great.

[00:17:46] But literally...

[00:17:47] Oh, dude.

[00:17:48] Dude, you're missing out.

[00:17:49] That is fantastic.

[00:17:50] It's just Armageddon, just a different way.

[00:17:53] Just that they actually die.

[00:17:54] Well, I did want to miss that thing.

[00:17:59] But...

[00:17:59] I don't want to miss your time.

[00:18:02] I can't remember that song.

[00:18:05] Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[00:18:08] Anyway.

[00:18:09] Anything.

[00:18:10] That being said, no, Deadpool and Wolverine...

[00:18:12] I was having this argument with Virus on Toontalk last night.

[00:18:15] He's like, No, Deadpool and Wolverine is not a good movie.

[00:18:17] It's entertaining.

[00:18:18] I'm like, No, it is actually a good movie.

[00:18:20] And here's why.

[00:18:21] Because not only is it a continuation of the redemption arc for Wade Wilson, it also is a

[00:18:26] redemption arc for Wolverine, which says a lot because it's also technically a Wolverine

[00:18:31] we've never met before.

[00:18:32] And it's a damn good emotional payoff in that movie, which for a Deadpool movie is fucking

[00:18:37] incredible.

[00:18:37] It also integrates the Fox Marvel properties into the MCU officially and in a fantastic

[00:18:46] way.

[00:18:47] No, it even redeemed Gambit, the Gambit movie, which was never even fucking made.

[00:18:54] I still don't like Gambit.

[00:18:56] Like, I did not like Channing Tatum as Gambit.

[00:18:59] I don't care.

[00:19:00] He seemed more of a joke.

[00:19:01] I mean, it was funny.

[00:19:04] I know, but they're talking about making a movie with him.

[00:19:06] And I'm like, I don't see.

[00:19:09] I'll be honest.

[00:19:10] I kind of agree.

[00:19:11] I don't see a solo Gambit film working.

[00:19:13] I could see another like I can see an X-Men film.

[00:19:17] Yeah.

[00:19:18] And Gambit being a part of it.

[00:19:20] Well, I think we're obviously going to get that.

[00:19:22] But and it's already kind of been confirmed that the X-Men are going to be integrated into

[00:19:26] the next Avengers film.

[00:19:28] So it was just an accent.

[00:19:33] But no.

[00:19:34] So Deadpool Wolverine is not only a very entertaining movie, it's actually a legitimately good movie.

[00:19:39] It is.

[00:19:40] I promise you it is.

[00:19:41] But to your point, it's I made this point to virus also.

[00:19:45] So I was comparing it with The Last Jedi.

[00:19:49] Deadpool Wolverine costs 100 million dollars less than that movie than The Last Jedi.

[00:19:57] And it made more money at the box.

[00:20:02] So it made more money at the box office.

[00:20:03] Obviously, it made more money because they had 100 million dollars more in profit, even

[00:20:08] if it had made the same amount.

[00:20:09] But it actually made more money at the box office because people went back to see it multiple

[00:20:13] times.

[00:20:15] Go woke, go broke.

[00:20:17] It's like, well, and I'm going to say The Last Jedi wasn't so much woke as it was bad.

[00:20:21] But I mean, it's it's kind of been a string of failures for Marvel.

[00:20:25] But every now and again, they have a gem where if they just focus on a good story and

[00:20:29] good characters, it does well.

[00:20:32] Spider-Man Middle Way Home, another example.

[00:20:34] And then you had Sony success with my nuts.

[00:20:39] Yeah, Sony Sony success with Across the Spider-Verse.

[00:20:43] And tell me when that third movie comes out, it's not going to make a couple like that

[00:20:47] movie is going to be a fucking worldwide phenomenon again.

[00:20:51] Yeah, I can't.

[00:20:52] I can't wait for that.

[00:20:53] I can't wait for great movies.

[00:20:54] They are.

[00:20:55] They're so fucking and I'll be the first to admit it.

[00:20:57] I was totally wrong about those things blew up our channel.

[00:21:01] Yeah, no, we need more of that.

[00:21:02] Not not not blown up.

[00:21:04] But I mean, at least no, it blew up.

[00:21:07] It gave us a lot of subs.

[00:21:09] We went semi viral because of that.

[00:21:12] Yeah.

[00:21:12] Three videos with like what?

[00:21:14] One point five million.

[00:21:15] Like I know it's chump change and other you people out there.

[00:21:18] But hey, we're nobody.

[00:21:19] Big deal for us.

[00:21:20] We're not nobody's.

[00:21:22] We're somebody's.

[00:21:22] We're just little somebody's.

[00:21:26] What else?

[00:21:27] What else can we gloat about?

[00:21:28] What else did we call?

[00:21:29] Because I mean, I'll be honest.

[00:21:30] We called a lot since we started doing this podcast.

[00:21:32] We've.

[00:21:33] We've called a lot pretty accurately.

[00:21:36] Gas prices have slowly.

[00:21:38] Been decreasing.

[00:21:40] I'll be honest.

[00:21:40] That was going to happen anyway, though.

[00:21:42] That was already on track to happen.

[00:21:44] Yeah, I know.

[00:21:45] But I don't really.

[00:21:48] There's so many.

[00:21:49] I told you so's that like you could just.

[00:21:55] There's more there.

[00:21:56] There's less not told you so.

[00:21:59] Well, we called what we called.

[00:22:00] We called Trump winning the election, but we already gloated about that.

[00:22:04] Yeah.

[00:22:04] Yeah.

[00:22:06] Oh, I also called it the Hawaii voted blue.

[00:22:10] I said there is a I uploaded a clip not that long ago where we were talking about it.

[00:22:15] And I said, and even after all the bullshit that's happening in Hawaii with the fires and

[00:22:19] them only getting seven hundred dollars, they're still going to fucking vote blue.

[00:22:23] And I told you Pennsylvania would flip red.

[00:22:26] Yeah, that's true.

[00:22:30] Night Sosa.

[00:22:32] Later, buddy.

[00:22:35] Glow down.

[00:22:36] I'm going to say some things.

[00:22:38] Yeah.

[00:22:39] Spider-Man content was awesome.

[00:22:40] That was a lot of fun, too.

[00:22:43] Oh, what else have we been right about?

[00:22:46] It's been a lot.

[00:22:54] I'm not I'm not going to call this one me calling it.

[00:22:58] Because not precisely anyway, but I was somewhat proven.

[00:23:01] Y'all better be fun.

[00:23:04] He prepared more fun than usual.

[00:23:08] OK, he's going to argue with us about other stuff.

[00:23:14] So Godzilla minus one, that movie, which have you seen it yet?

[00:23:17] We might cut it and record it.

[00:23:19] Yeah.

[00:23:20] No, that's a good idea.

[00:23:21] We should do that instead of keeping on one dime a podcast.

[00:23:24] We need to separate.

[00:23:25] Yeah, that's a good idea.

[00:23:26] I think we'll do that.

[00:23:28] That's it.

[00:23:28] That's a very good idea.

[00:23:29] But have you seen Godzilla minus one?

[00:23:32] No.

[00:23:34] First of all, you should because it's it's a genuinely great movie.

[00:23:38] It's not just a good God.

[00:23:39] It's the best Godzilla movie ever made.

[00:23:42] I know that'll piss some people off in the comments, but honestly, it is.

[00:23:46] It won an Oscar.

[00:23:48] Doesn't that mean it's a Godzilla minus one?

[00:23:51] Isn't it in black and white or?

[00:23:52] No, but actually, fun fact.

[00:23:59] You're going to love this hot take.

[00:24:01] I genuinely mean it.

[00:24:02] Tape is in top three for most important people to help the right.

[00:24:06] Yeah, no, I actually agree with that.

[00:24:08] I actually do agree with that.

[00:24:10] I think Tate had a huge influence in telling particularly men on the right that it's OK to speak your mind.

[00:24:17] But that being said, so Godzilla minus one, they re-released it in theaters in a black and white version.

[00:24:25] And I'm going to be honest with you.

[00:24:28] I'm not sure which version I like better because they're both really good.

[00:24:35] Most people are probably going to prefer the color.

[00:24:38] Yeah, I was going to say it's the same just without color, right?

[00:24:41] Yes and no.

[00:24:42] So it's not like they just put a black and white filter on it.

[00:24:45] They completely recolored the whole movie.

[00:24:47] So the contrast is different.

[00:24:50] Oh.

[00:24:50] It's very reminiscent to the first one.

[00:24:53] And it's weird because it's in HD.

[00:24:56] But it was done really, really well.

[00:24:57] And there's a lot of scenes, honestly, that are.

[00:25:00] I'll check it out.

[00:25:01] That allude to the first movie.

[00:25:04] But you don't really see it unless it's in black and white.

[00:25:07] Once it's black and white, you're like, oh, I remember that.

[00:25:11] That's the thing that happened.

[00:25:12] But even in the color version, they what do they do?

[00:25:15] They have sort of the color direction they do makes it feel like an older movie.

[00:25:22] But it looks phenomenal.

[00:25:23] It looks great.

[00:25:24] And it's the first Godzilla movie where you actually give a flying fuck.

[00:25:29] Not only do you give a fuck, you the focus, your focus as an audience that you want to follow are the human characters.

[00:25:38] It's it's such a great movie.

[00:25:40] Not only do you give a fuck, but you are the fuck.

[00:25:43] You are.

[00:25:43] They are the fucks.

[00:25:44] They are the fucks given.

[00:25:46] It's a great movie, dude.

[00:25:47] It's a phenomenal look at PTSD.

[00:25:50] It's a phenomenal look at PTSD survivor's guilt.

[00:25:55] It's oh, man, I could gush about it for literal hours.

[00:25:58] It's such a good movie.

[00:25:59] I'm in the theater.

[00:25:59] I'm shocked because I've been a Godzilla fan basically my whole life, but I've never seen a Godzilla movie that I would consider.

[00:26:05] Well, that's not true.

[00:26:07] Shin Godzilla is good cinema.

[00:26:09] Most Godzilla movies are not what I would consider like great cinema.

[00:26:14] And this is great cinema.

[00:26:16] And there's a reason it won an Oscar to go.

[00:26:20] G.

[00:26:22] It's go.

[00:26:23] Gyra.

[00:26:24] No, but the reason I'm bringing it up is Godzilla minus one proved what I've been saying for years is that you don't need.

[00:26:32] Hollywood does not need to spend a shit ton of money on these mediocre films because.

[00:26:38] Sorry, Jake about.

[00:26:41] Oh, he's going to add something.

[00:26:44] So guess what the budget for Godzilla minus one is.

[00:26:47] And this will blow your mind after you watch it because the visual effects are incredible.

[00:26:52] Like that monster CGI and it doesn't look CGI.

[00:26:55] It's wild.

[00:26:56] They spent a lot on it then.

[00:26:58] Nope.

[00:26:58] Fifteen million.

[00:27:02] Total budget.

[00:27:03] Total budget.

[00:27:05] That movie is fifteen million dollars.

[00:27:06] And how much do they spend on the new Avatar?

[00:27:09] And it didn't like do as well as they thought.

[00:27:12] Well, but that's just so here's here's my point.

[00:27:14] So let's say you make a fifteen million dollar picture that looks like Godzilla minus one.

[00:27:20] In today's cinema climate, it's it's it's not impossible to fail, but it's really hard if you have like mainstream distribution, which this film even had a limited release initially in the United States, but it made back its money in Japan alone.

[00:27:35] But that being said, it's Japanese.

[00:27:38] They spend their money.

[00:27:39] Yeah, exactly.

[00:27:40] And the best thing is, though, so so I don't know if you know this, you probably do, is they greenlit a sequel and the same team is doing it.

[00:27:47] And I'm just like, holy shit, give them fifty million and see what they can do.

[00:27:53] Like, I would blow blow your mind.

[00:27:56] I mean, the fifteen million blew my mind.

[00:27:58] Give them fifty and see what they can do.

[00:28:00] Like, honestly.

[00:28:01] And then meanwhile, then you've got movies like Godzilla X Kong, which don't get me wrong, they made money, but it looked worse.

[00:28:09] The VFX were not as good.

[00:28:11] And you're wrong, the VFX were good in that movie.

[00:28:14] But Godzilla minus one looked better, had a better story, had better acting.

[00:28:18] And the story made more sense.

[00:28:21] Like, this is an all around better movie.

[00:28:23] And I've been saying for years, Hollywood has lost sight on how to make good movies for the most part.

[00:28:29] There's an occasional gem, but they're rare.

[00:28:32] Most of the stuff that comes out is like, it's all right.

[00:28:35] Like, for example, you'll appreciate this, Eric, because you like you like Christmas movies, generally speaking.

[00:28:42] Just say yes and we'll move on.

[00:28:45] Oh, I shook my head.

[00:28:46] Yes.

[00:28:46] Yeah.

[00:28:47] So have you seen trailers for that movie, Red One?

[00:28:51] The Christmas movie with The Rock?

[00:28:53] Yeah.

[00:28:54] It doesn't look too bad.

[00:28:56] It looks okay.

[00:28:59] That's the definition.

[00:29:00] It's okay.

[00:29:00] But as much VFX are in this movie, I guarantee you they spent way too much money on that movie.

[00:29:06] And it just, it wasn't necessary.

[00:29:09] Like, Chris Evans is funny.

[00:29:11] Just because they have The Rock attached to it that they can spend as much as they want.

[00:29:15] And it's going to make it back.

[00:29:17] Well, actually, that's a good question.

[00:29:20] Well, they should have learned that with Black Adam.

[00:29:22] I mean, fair enough.

[00:29:23] Which I have a theory about The Rock now.

[00:29:26] After a couple.

[00:29:27] Actually, it's thanks to Moana.

[00:29:30] He's a ditty.

[00:29:32] That's.

[00:29:34] Not Red Adam.

[00:29:34] Tell me this, Batman.

[00:29:38] That's Cockknocker.

[00:29:39] That's not the.

[00:29:44] The Wrath of Cockknocker.

[00:29:49] Okay.

[00:29:49] So get this.

[00:29:50] Now, granted, keep in mind, it's still in theaters.

[00:29:53] The budget was $250 million for Red One.

[00:29:56] It's made $150.6 million so far.

[00:29:59] And it's been out for like, what, two weeks?

[00:30:02] Two or three weeks, yeah.

[00:30:04] This movie is going to be a flop.

[00:30:06] Yep.

[00:30:07] Even if they break it.

[00:30:08] Because that's not including advertising.

[00:30:09] And this movie got advertised a lot.

[00:30:12] Yeah, basically double it.

[00:30:15] Yeah.

[00:30:15] You said $250?

[00:30:17] Yeah, $250.

[00:30:18] They need to at least break $400, $500 million to break even.

[00:30:24] And that's their worldwide gross.

[00:30:25] Their U.S. gross.

[00:30:27] And U.S. and Canada, only $77.5 million.

[00:30:31] Did you hear about the new trend of ignoring celebrities?

[00:30:37] Finally, somebody listened.

[00:30:40] Yeah.

[00:30:41] Someone made a video and said, wouldn't it be funny if we just ignored celebrities?

[00:30:45] And apparently, JoJo Siwa or whatever her name is.

[00:30:49] Oh, yeah.

[00:30:50] She posted something and it got like 52 million views, but only like 16,000 likes or 600 likes

[00:30:57] or something.

[00:30:58] It wasn't a lot.

[00:30:59] Like in comparison of what videos normally do.

[00:31:02] But I thought that was kind of humorous.

[00:31:05] I'm going to be honest.

[00:31:06] I think a lot of people.

[00:31:07] So you want to hear my conspiracy theory about The Rock?

[00:31:10] Oh, yeah.

[00:31:10] I'm sorry, guys.

[00:31:11] So I came to this conclusion because of what Disney's doing with Moana specifically.

[00:31:18] Now, I don't know if you've seen Moana, but it's all right.

[00:31:22] It's not great.

[00:31:25] It's not terrible.

[00:31:26] It's just it's a thing that exists.

[00:31:29] Why?

[00:31:29] I just want to say you're welcome.

[00:31:32] Funny you should mention that song.

[00:31:35] Because my theory is that that movie was originally intended to be a celebration, a Disney celebration

[00:31:41] of Polynesian culture.

[00:31:43] And once The Rock got involved, it became a vehicle for The Rock to get more screen time.

[00:31:50] Maui is a much more.

[00:31:53] Yeah, that's right, Hayley.

[00:31:54] Moana is just there.

[00:31:56] But in her own movie, Moana is not the main character.

[00:31:59] Maui is.

[00:32:00] Watch that movie again.

[00:32:02] Maui is the main character in both movies because I just saw Moana 2 over the weekend.

[00:32:06] Maui is the main character in both those movies.

[00:32:09] And who plays Maui?

[00:32:11] The Rock.

[00:32:11] And they've already been greenlit for a Moana 3.

[00:32:14] And who's on the promotional picture?

[00:32:16] Maui.

[00:32:17] And they're doing a live action version of Moana.

[00:32:20] Guess who's playing Maui?

[00:32:22] The Rock.

[00:32:25] That's funny.

[00:32:26] The Rock is now.

[00:32:28] I'll be honest.

[00:32:29] I don't know how we did it.

[00:32:31] But he has positioned himself to a place in Hollywood where he now is not only an actor.

[00:32:36] He's the producer or involved in the producer role in virtually any movie he is in.

[00:32:42] He is making himself a monopoly.

[00:32:45] He is making movies to star in and produce.

[00:32:51] What he's doing, I suspect, is he is cozying up to certain people like Disney.

[00:32:57] But then he's also getting a hold of...

[00:32:59] They're basically buying up other scripts and inserting him in roles or creating roles for him to be in.

[00:33:07] And the thing is, a lot of these movies are not making back their money.

[00:33:13] But, like, Black Adam was a bust.

[00:33:15] Red 1 is going to be a bust.

[00:33:16] But they're going to make up for it.

[00:33:18] Overall, he's a box office draw.

[00:33:22] But my theory is just...

[00:33:23] Dwayne Johnson is just making movies just so he can be in more movies.

[00:33:27] Now, I'm not hating on all of them.

[00:33:28] Generally speaking, I like the Rockin' movies.

[00:33:30] Like, I thought he was hilarious in the new Jumanji movies.

[00:33:33] Dude's fucking funny.

[00:33:35] Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, don't cry.

[00:33:39] He's naturally funny.

[00:33:40] He's naturally funny, yeah.

[00:33:42] He is.

[00:33:43] Like, he doesn't have to force it.

[00:33:44] It just happens.

[00:33:46] But funny...

[00:33:48] Go ahead.

[00:33:49] I was just going to say, but the funny thing is, when he does force it, it's bad.

[00:33:53] Like, Maui feels very forced to me.

[00:33:56] Maui has way more screen time than he should have.

[00:33:58] And I guarantee you that part of the deal with him coming on was like,

[00:34:02] yeah, but this Maui cat's got to have more screen time.

[00:34:05] Maui was a demigod.

[00:34:07] So, honestly, the story was about him and the...

[00:34:12] What was the mountain, the girl's name?

[00:34:16] Moana?

[00:34:17] No.

[00:34:19] Oh, the floating green mountain monster thing?

[00:34:22] Yeah, I don't remember.

[00:34:24] Him and her?

[00:34:25] Yeah, that's what I'm saying.

[00:34:26] The movie's not about Moana.

[00:34:27] Moana's just there.

[00:34:28] The movie's about Maui.

[00:34:30] Both of them.

[00:34:31] Why would they name the...

[00:34:32] I mean, I guess Moana just...

[00:34:33] They probably just did a test, a control test.

[00:34:37] And it was like, okay, so Maui or Moana?

[00:34:40] And everybody's like, Moana rolls off the tongue nicely.

[00:34:43] Moana because they wanted to have a female lead that wasn't a supporting character.

[00:34:47] But the thing is, if you actually watch the movie, Moana's a supporting female character.

[00:34:53] I mean, yeah.

[00:34:54] I guess at the end of the movie, she's the one that makes the angry island not mad no more.

[00:34:59] Which...

[00:35:00] Don't even get me started.

[00:35:01] That's why Moana's such an overrated movie.

[00:35:04] Forgive me.

[00:35:05] Mo-mo-mo-mo-mo-moana.

[00:35:09] Moana.

[00:35:34] I don't know.

[00:35:38] And guess what?

[00:35:38] One of the first things that happened after he became a member of the board.

[00:35:43] He got back in the ring and back on TV.

[00:35:47] Now, here's the thing.

[00:35:49] And this is what's frustrating about it.

[00:35:50] Like Michael Jordan right now.

[00:35:52] But here's...

[00:35:52] Bought the Wizards just to play.

[00:35:54] But here's the frustrating thing, though.

[00:35:56] What he did, generally speaking, was good.

[00:36:03] Generally speaking, what he did on television was good stuff.

[00:36:07] I agree.

[00:36:08] It was entertaining.

[00:36:10] Now, they did fuck it up a little bit, but the audience pushed back.

[00:36:14] And they said, no, we want Cody Rhodes.

[00:36:16] But to his credit, they acquiesced.

[00:36:20] Because it was pretty clear that they were trying to gear up for him and Roman Reigns at WrestleMania.

[00:36:23] And then when they shoved Cody Rhodes aside, they were like, no, we want Cody.

[00:36:28] But he turned it into an angle.

[00:36:29] And it was fucking great, dude.

[00:36:31] It was good shit.

[00:36:33] I know you're not as big into wrestling, but it was entertaining shit.

[00:36:37] That's what's frustrating about The Rock, though, is somebody who's obviously doing a lot of...

[00:36:41] It's not nepotism when you're doing it for yourself.

[00:36:44] But for lack of a better word, like self-masterpatory nepotism.

[00:36:48] But it's good, generally.

[00:36:50] Clearly.

[00:36:51] So, he says, I'm back just for a second.

[00:36:53] Had to share this.

[00:36:56] So, I'm calling that for The Rock.

[00:36:59] I can see that.

[00:37:01] It just makes sense.

[00:37:02] As many things as he's in.

[00:37:05] Because he had two major releases over, like within two weeks of each other.

[00:37:09] He had Red 1 and Moana 2.

[00:37:12] Back to, not politics, but Biden and Trump.

[00:37:18] You know, since Biden got basically, what do you call it?

[00:37:25] Pardoned.

[00:37:26] Geez, I can't talk.

[00:37:27] So, since Biden pardoned Hunter and whatnot.

[00:37:30] Like, since those few shooters were taking shots at Trump.

[00:37:34] I guarantee you no more attempts happen now.

[00:37:37] Like...

[00:37:37] No, it's too late now.

[00:37:39] Well, I'm just saying, like, even while he's in office.

[00:37:42] Because the thing is, like, if somebody thinks he's taking office and he's not stoppable, then...

[00:37:47] And I don't mean this in any way.

[00:37:49] Please don't read into this, people.

[00:37:52] But, like...

[00:37:53] I don't...

[00:37:54] I don't know where else I'm going with that.

[00:37:57] I don't either.

[00:37:58] It doesn't make sense.

[00:37:59] I don't either.

[00:38:01] But the other thing that we kind of called...

[00:38:03] This is a bit broader, but we ended up being right.

[00:38:07] We've been saying for years...

[00:38:09] Oh, what'd he say?

[00:38:11] Are you talking about politics?

[00:38:14] Maybe it could be Joe's going to be on politics.

[00:38:19] Yeah, probably.

[00:38:20] Although, that...

[00:38:22] If he pardons Trump, that would be hilarious.

[00:38:24] That'd be fucking funny.

[00:38:26] That'd be good.

[00:38:26] Joe voted for Trump 100%.

[00:38:29] I believe he did.

[00:38:30] That would be really funny if he voted for Trump.

[00:38:33] I mean, if he pardons Trump, that would be funny.

[00:38:35] But speaking of that, we've been saying for a long time, man...

[00:38:40] Because we were right when we said the red wave was going to be compromised by the overturn of Roe v. Wade.

[00:38:47] And we were right about the left, too.

[00:38:51] Generally speaking, more liberal-leaning people were fine with the sentiment, but they were just pushing it too far.

[00:38:57] And they went to crazy town.

[00:39:00] Well, they wanted to literally just amp it up and amp it up and amp it up.

[00:39:06] And then literally all the other regular people who were somewhat left-leaning were just like, no.

[00:39:12] Yeah, because almost everybody...

[00:39:15] And this is why there was such a shift.

[00:39:17] They were saying, oh, you're choosing women's rights over cheap gas.

[00:39:22] And it's like, they have rights.

[00:39:23] What the fuck are you talking about?

[00:39:25] Oh, what did I see?

[00:39:26] They've had rights since the...

[00:39:28] You know, the...

[00:39:29] Whatever.

[00:39:30] Quality Act.

[00:39:32] What was that meme I saw?

[00:39:34] It was quite funny.

[00:39:34] It was from Occupy Democrats Logic.

[00:39:38] Shit.

[00:39:39] Whoever runs that page is special.

[00:39:41] Oh, they're...

[00:39:41] No, no.

[00:39:42] Not Occupy Democrats.

[00:39:43] Occupy Democrats Logic.

[00:39:45] It's a parody page of them.

[00:39:47] Oh.

[00:39:47] So they post really funny stuff.

[00:39:50] I don't remember the percentages, but it was like, X percentage of women get abortions,

[00:39:54] but 100% of women buy eggs.

[00:39:58] And I was like, well...

[00:40:02] That's funny.

[00:40:02] I mean...

[00:40:03] Not 100% women because some are vegan.

[00:40:06] Okay.

[00:40:07] Buy gas.

[00:40:08] You know, whatever.

[00:40:09] Buy bread.

[00:40:10] But yeah, I mean, it's a pointless made.

[00:40:13] But I've been saying it for years.

[00:40:15] You know, we both have.

[00:40:16] But eventually, the left is going to reach a point that's too crazy, and the normal people

[00:40:21] are going to say, you know what?

[00:40:22] Enough is enough.

[00:40:24] Eventually?

[00:40:25] Well, I mean...

[00:40:27] They lost the crazy.

[00:40:28] I think that time is now.

[00:40:30] I'm talking about when we were saying this stuff in like 2016.

[00:40:33] Oh, yeah.

[00:40:34] Told you so.

[00:40:35] Well, 2020, because we started the podcast in 2020, but we were talking about this kind

[00:40:39] of stuff way, way back.

[00:40:41] But 2016 and beyond, like, yeah, we were talking about all this and how it was going

[00:40:45] to...

[00:40:45] We knew exactly how it was going to roll.

[00:40:48] So...

[00:40:48] Well, and just...

[00:40:49] It crumbles.

[00:40:50] And just how...

[00:40:50] It's just...

[00:40:51] It's just wild how demonstrably we've been proven right.

[00:40:55] Because again, it's like we said the identity politics crap wasn't going to work

[00:40:58] because most people want the same things regardless of, you know, their ethnic

[00:41:02] background or even their sexual orientation or any of that stuff at a basic level.

[00:41:08] And I mean, when the economy went bad, we knew it was going to be the number one

[00:41:11] issue because that's something that everybody has in common.

[00:41:14] And the fact that the Democrats...

[00:41:16] Yeah.

[00:41:17] Affordable housing, affordable food.

[00:41:19] I mean...

[00:41:20] And what happened under Democrat control.

[00:41:22] Well, I'm just saying like that affordable energy literally blankets everything.

[00:41:28] Yeah.

[00:41:28] But the two big main things that changed everything for everybody, because if somebody had a high

[00:41:32] electric bill and the food bill and their gas bill, like I'm talking like gasoline, was

[00:41:38] cheaper and they were able to drive further or whatnot.

[00:41:42] Yeah.

[00:41:43] That's...

[00:41:43] I mean, it's common sense.

[00:41:45] See, that's what kills me is, you know, Trump will get up there and say something that's

[00:41:49] just resoundingly true and it gives virtually no coverage.

[00:41:52] Like when he got up there and he gave that whole spiel about how energy is the key to

[00:41:56] everything being affordable.

[00:41:57] And I listened to him and I'm like, he's fucking right.

[00:42:00] He's absolutely fucking right.

[00:42:01] Because the cost of energy, the cost of fuel affects everything.

[00:42:07] It affects everything.

[00:42:09] And...

[00:42:09] Everything.

[00:42:10] Before people...

[00:42:10] Like...

[00:42:11] Yeah.

[00:42:12] And people are...

[00:42:13] Some people would say to that when we were talking about housing, they would say something

[00:42:16] to the effect of like, yeah, but house prices were rising.

[00:42:18] I'm like, yes, but interest rates were 3%.

[00:42:22] So it offset...

[00:42:24] And the only reason house prices were rising so fast was because of mega corporations buying

[00:42:30] up single family homes.

[00:42:31] Like...

[00:42:32] That's actually not...

[00:42:33] That shouldn't be a lot...

[00:42:34] Well, no, BlackRock and...

[00:42:36] Yeah, but if you...

[00:42:37] BlackRock or Vanguard, they bought up many different homes and they're renting them out.

[00:42:42] I sold my home to a rent...

[00:42:43] Oh, I know.

[00:42:44] I know.

[00:42:44] Like, I'm just...

[00:42:45] I'm part of the problem, but...

[00:42:46] No, but nationwide, if you actually look at that, that wasn't the largest...

[00:42:49] That was a factor, but it wasn't the largest.

[00:42:51] It was kind of overblown in the statistics.

[00:42:53] The biggest contributor was the lack of...

[00:42:57] Or the supply chain interruptions of building materials, but...

[00:43:01] That's what they keep saying, but yet I keep seeing houses flying up in record time.

[00:43:06] So like those...

[00:43:07] The math ain't...

[00:43:08] Well, no, not anymore.

[00:43:09] I lived in a addition where they were putting up homes and nobody was buying them.

[00:43:13] No, no, no.

[00:43:13] Not anymore.

[00:43:14] That was like...

[00:43:15] During COVID, that was part of the reason.

[00:43:18] Is because the supply chain...

[00:43:19] I'm talking on.

[00:43:20] 2022.

[00:43:21] Yeah, no.

[00:43:21] Now it's not.

[00:43:22] Now it's not.

[00:43:23] Now there is an increase in cost of building materials, which causes housing prices to go up.

[00:43:29] And there was already a trend.

[00:43:29] My in-laws, they're getting their house built.

[00:43:34] And literally that guy has like...

[00:43:37] Just the one guy that they're working with, one of the contractors out of many in the company,

[00:43:43] has like seven, eight jobs going on simultaneously.

[00:43:46] Oh, yeah.

[00:43:46] No, no.

[00:43:46] Yeah, yeah.

[00:43:47] And that's what I'm saying is you'll start seeing...

[00:43:49] I honestly believe that you're going to start seeing that pressure.

[00:43:53] I don't think home prices are...

[00:43:54] They're not...

[00:43:55] Home prices aren't going to go down a lot.

[00:43:57] And in certain areas, they're not going to go down at all.

[00:43:59] But combined with the overall market stabilizing a bit, because it's not going to be like 2008

[00:44:06] where the price of housing just like nosedives.

[00:44:09] It's not going to be that way.

[00:44:10] In fact, if you look in certain places like my house, for example,

[00:44:14] my house has already gone down a little bit in value, but it's still way higher than compared to when I bought it.

[00:44:19] But it has gone down a tad in value.

[00:44:23] Like a few thousand dollars.

[00:44:25] Nothing major.

[00:44:25] Yeah.

[00:44:26] But it's equal now.

[00:44:27] Wow.

[00:44:27] That's hard because like even if they were to correct it and prices were to fall to lower,

[00:44:33] you know, it would just...

[00:44:35] Fucked.

[00:44:36] Like it's insane how much it costs.

[00:44:38] Like you need $170,000 a year to literally afford like a $350,000, $400,000 house.

[00:44:45] And that's a shitty house now.

[00:44:47] Like it's not a shitty house.

[00:44:49] But dude, I look...

[00:44:49] If you have a family.

[00:44:50] Yeah.

[00:44:50] If you have like a...

[00:44:51] If you have two kids and maybe three kids, like dude, it's insane.

[00:44:55] Like...

[00:44:55] Yeah, I know.

[00:44:56] Dude, I looked at a...

[00:44:56] I looked at a house just the other day just for shits and giggles just to see what it was.

[00:45:00] They wanted $125,000 for this house and you would have had to redo the entire inside.

[00:45:04] I don't mean it's dated.

[00:45:06] I mean it's incomplete.

[00:45:09] And the thing is somebody's going to buy that house for $125,000.

[00:45:14] Well, that's not too bad if it's incomplete.

[00:45:17] It's not.

[00:45:17] Like if it needs stuff finished, like that's better than having to rip out and then go back in.

[00:45:22] That's actually pretty decent.

[00:45:24] Like not price wise.

[00:45:25] I don't know how big the house was.

[00:45:27] But like, I mean, that's a pretty...

[00:45:30] It's not huge.

[00:45:31] Quick turnaround.

[00:45:31] That's a good flipper really.

[00:45:33] Yeah.

[00:45:33] And that's...

[00:45:34] I think that's what they're selling.

[00:45:35] I'm pretty sure somebody bought this thinking they were going to be able to flip it or live

[00:45:38] in it and they ran out of money.

[00:45:39] The thing is, yeah, a flipper can buy that tomorrow.

[00:45:42] In fact, it's probably not even on the market anymore because I know about four flippers

[00:45:46] that would have jumped all over that.

[00:45:48] And it's got a detached garage.

[00:45:50] It's got a fenced in the backyard.

[00:45:51] Like it's decent.

[00:45:53] The only reason I didn't jump on it, verbal, is two reasons.

[00:45:56] One, I don't want to move quite yet.

[00:45:59] And it didn't have a garage that might...

[00:46:03] I'm sorry.

[00:46:04] It didn't have a detached garage.

[00:46:05] It has a shed.

[00:46:06] But the shed is powered.

[00:46:07] It said in the description, I need a garage for my car because I'm an idiot and I bought

[00:46:11] a fucking plug-in.

[00:46:14] I guess I don't need a garage, but I want a garage.

[00:46:18] Speaking of, how does your battery life fare in the cold?

[00:46:23] It is effective.

[00:46:24] Is it okay?

[00:46:25] I wasn't sure.

[00:46:26] But here's the cool thing.

[00:46:27] And this is why I'm glad I bought the car I did.

[00:46:31] It's got a feature where when it drops below a certain temperature, which it has to be pretty

[00:46:36] cold.

[00:46:36] I think if it's under like 20 degrees, no, it's colder than that.

[00:46:40] The engine will...

[00:46:41] The generator will kick on to warm up the vehicle.

[00:46:44] So it kind of...

[00:46:45] It becomes essentially a more traditional hybrid when it's really cold out because it'll go

[00:46:49] gas and electric.

[00:46:50] So I get less electric miles, but it lasts longer because it's supplemented with the

[00:46:55] gas.

[00:46:56] I still get a hell of a good mileage.

[00:46:59] You know, electric...

[00:47:02] Like what you have is decent, but like for electric vehicles, like I think they should

[00:47:06] just focus on getting the best miles per gallon out of regular petrol vehicles.

[00:47:12] Well, no, they should.

[00:47:14] More auto manufacturers should...

[00:47:16] Keep working on the technology.

[00:47:16] Keep working on the technology.

[00:47:18] But until it's there, don't release it.

[00:47:21] Like the shit they have out now.

[00:47:22] Like what you have makes sense.

[00:47:24] No, I'm...

[00:47:25] But...

[00:47:26] What I have could be the extent of an electric vehicle if you live somewhere where it gets

[00:47:32] cold.

[00:47:32] Just being realistic.

[00:47:34] Just being completely realistic because honestly, having something that's 100% electric in a

[00:47:40] place like Chicago, you're going to have problems in the winter.

[00:47:43] You just...

[00:47:43] You are.

[00:47:44] You are going to have problems unless you have a climate controlled garage.

[00:47:48] That's the only way you're not going to have problems.

[00:47:50] And even then...

[00:47:52] I know Tesla's and electric vehicles driving around.

[00:47:54] I'm just like, oh, I feel bad for you.

[00:47:55] Like...

[00:47:56] Oh, I don't.

[00:47:56] I don't know.

[00:47:57] You got to be charging like crazy.

[00:47:58] I mean, I don't feel bad for them.

[00:48:00] I still want one, but...

[00:48:01] I love it how they'd be like, oh, it's great not paying that $300, $400 a month in gas.

[00:48:07] I'm like, yeah, I know.

[00:48:08] Well, what's your $1,200 car payment like?

[00:48:11] Yeah, but guess how much I pay in gas a month.

[00:48:14] Yeah, but what's your car payment?

[00:48:16] Mine's paid off.

[00:48:17] Well...

[00:48:18] Granted, it's not running right now.

[00:48:20] Let's not talk about that part.

[00:48:22] But I mean, my...

[00:48:23] Yeah, but that's what I'm saying.

[00:48:25] That's why I got so frustrated because more car manufacturers should be making more

[00:48:28] cars like the one I have.

[00:48:29] The problem is they last too long.

[00:48:33] That's the real bitch of it is Chevrolet made a car that was too damn good and they did

[00:48:40] a piss poor job marketing it.

[00:48:44] Yeah, but like, honestly, like, maybe you should make a video on it and you could definitely

[00:48:51] bring it back.

[00:48:52] Yeah, but if they can make it cheaper...

[00:48:55] It's a cheaper car.

[00:48:58] What year was it?

[00:48:59] What year was it?

[00:49:00] 2012?

[00:49:00] 2012?

[00:49:01] No, mine's a 2017.

[00:49:03] Oh.

[00:49:04] When did they stop making them?

[00:49:05] 2017?

[00:49:06] 2019.

[00:49:07] 2019.

[00:49:08] Okay.

[00:49:09] I don't know.

[00:49:10] There's whispers.

[00:49:11] There's whispers.

[00:49:12] For some reason, Chevy and a bunch of other of these manufacturers decided to go either

[00:49:17] all electric or all gas and stopped making any of the, you know, hybrid versions.

[00:49:23] And I'm just like, why?

[00:49:26] Why?

[00:49:26] It does not make sense to me because the car, I drive a Chevy Volt for those who don't know.

[00:49:33] That car is the perfect bridge.

[00:49:35] If you are skeptical about an EV for any reason, you will fall in love with that car because

[00:49:41] you get all the pros of an EV with none of the cons.

[00:49:45] I still get the tax credit because it's an EV.

[00:49:47] It is an EV.

[00:49:51] It qualifies as an EV.

[00:49:52] So I still get the $7,000 tax credit, which I'll get this coming year because I bought it

[00:49:56] in 2024.

[00:49:59] Yeah.

[00:50:00] Yeah, I bought it in 2024.

[00:50:01] So I'll get it next year.

[00:50:04] But I don't have to worry about range because I can always put gas in the car.

[00:50:07] I just drove to Tennessee and back all on gas.

[00:50:11] I filled up twice.

[00:50:13] I have an eight gallon gas tank.

[00:50:17] Holy shit.

[00:50:21] Yeah, that's a good trade off.

[00:50:23] It's fucking great.

[00:50:24] So even if I'm running completely, which I'm never completely running on gas because it

[00:50:28] charges the battery.

[00:50:29] But if I'm straight up running on gas, I still get hella good gas mileage.

[00:50:34] It's fucking phenomenal.

[00:50:35] I love that car.

[00:50:36] I spend at worst about 40 bucks a month on gasoline.

[00:50:40] And that's only if I'm doing a lot of weekend driving where I don't have time to charge it

[00:50:44] at home.

[00:50:46] It's fucking great.

[00:50:48] Sweet.

[00:50:48] It's fucking great.

[00:50:49] I love that car.

[00:50:51] Yeah, I definitely wouldn't use those superchargers.

[00:50:53] I'd rather just get the gas.

[00:50:54] Yeah, that's yeah.

[00:50:56] I wouldn't use a supercharger, although I am going to look into because I was hoping I'd

[00:51:00] be able to find some like EV parking and there's a service you can pay for, which is still

[00:51:05] super cheap.

[00:51:06] The one that's at the mall up here in Indianapolis, you can it's a special EV parking spot and

[00:51:11] you can charge there.

[00:51:12] It's two bucks an hour on a supercharger, which most cars max out at four hours.

[00:51:19] So my car would probably charge in.

[00:51:22] Yeah.

[00:51:24] Those superchargers.

[00:51:25] Another thing about them is if a lot if they're being heavily utilized by everybody else, like

[00:51:31] around the charge rate goes down and sometimes it can take.

[00:51:35] Well, I'm not you because yours doesn't need a whole lot, but like someone driving like a

[00:51:39] long range Tesla or something like that, they'd have to sit there forever.

[00:51:44] Yeah.

[00:51:44] And that's, you know, but again, my, my.

[00:51:48] I've heard the horror stories.

[00:51:49] I would basically be, I, I, I go there for the parking spot, which I can still technically

[00:51:54] use because it is an EV, but I think I am going to sign up for that service.

[00:51:58] And if I ever go to the mall, like if I go to that AMC to see a movie, I park my car and

[00:52:03] I come out and I've got a full charge battery and I paid like four bucks.

[00:52:07] That's pretty cool.

[00:52:08] And a parking spot up front.

[00:52:10] And I don't even have to break my leg.

[00:52:13] Now see if it worked out like that, but does it ever?

[00:52:18] No, I parked there before.

[00:52:19] I just didn't use the charging feature.

[00:52:21] Oh, so you can park there.

[00:52:23] You just don't have to charge.

[00:52:24] Yeah.

[00:52:25] If you're an EV, you can park there.

[00:52:28] Do you have to pay?

[00:52:30] No, not only.

[00:52:30] You only have to pay if you're using the charging service.

[00:52:33] Yep.

[00:52:35] But the charging service is cheap.

[00:52:36] That's one thing.

[00:52:37] Everybody else, everybody always says the same thing when I tell them I have a, a, an EV.

[00:52:41] They're in the air.

[00:52:42] Cause they're always, they always say the same thing.

[00:52:45] They're like, oh, I bet your electric bill's high.

[00:52:46] I'm like, my electric bill hasn't changed.

[00:52:49] My father drives an electric car.

[00:52:52] So he does.

[00:52:52] I suppose.

[00:52:55] Um, you said it didn't really change.

[00:52:58] Well, yeah, because it really doesn't cost a lot of, uh, electricity to charge those cars.

[00:53:03] Believe it or not.

[00:53:04] Like a lot of people think it costs them a lot.

[00:53:06] I worry about the car payment versus the electric bill.

[00:53:10] Well, yeah, if you're buying something like a Tesla for sure, but my car, which again, okay, this is my car payment is not high for today, but I'm so pissed that it is what it is because to me it's high.

[00:53:22] But the average car pay, did you know the average car payment now is $800 a fucking month?

[00:53:29] The average car, the average car payment in the United States is $800 a month.

[00:53:34] Yeah.

[00:53:35] And like, we're having car issues and whatnot, like on both our vehicles and talking about wanting to get a car and this and that.

[00:53:40] And I'm just like, I don't want to do it.

[00:53:42] Well, Deb, have you looked into trade?

[00:53:46] You don't get shit.

[00:53:47] I was, I was going to say, I never, you never get shit for trades.

[00:53:50] Like everybody's always, it's, it's literally better to just pay a down payment than it is to trade in your car.

[00:53:56] Like, like, especially if it's running.

[00:54:02] You didn't fuck it up, Justin.

[00:54:04] Don't worry about it.

[00:54:06] What?

[00:54:07] Oh, so we were, we were supposed to record the final frontier tonight and his computer kept just randomly power.

[00:54:14] It's an issue his computer has every now and again.

[00:54:16] Are you a laptop or a desktop?

[00:54:20] I'm not sure.

[00:54:23] Well, as I say, Justin, if you're, if you're a desktop, I don't know.

[00:54:27] I might be able to help you.

[00:54:29] I've got a little bit of knowledge there.

[00:54:31] Yeah.

[00:54:31] Very possibly.

[00:54:33] But yeah, dude, you didn't, you didn't fuck it up.

[00:54:35] I fucked it up when I recorded an entire episode without my audio.

[00:54:38] That's fucking up.

[00:54:39] Your computer's just being a dick.

[00:54:41] There's a difference.

[00:54:46] Yeah.

[00:54:46] Yeah, dude.

[00:54:47] It's a laptop.

[00:54:47] So those integrated, those integrated parts are just trash.

[00:54:52] They make them to throw away now.

[00:54:53] Like they don't want you to replace anything.

[00:54:55] You can place a hard drive, but.

[00:54:57] Yeah, I do.

[00:54:58] When I do, when I do move into a larger house, I think I'm gonna build me a PC.

[00:55:06] Gonna.

[00:55:08] That really hurt.

[00:55:09] That really hurt my wrist when I did that.

[00:55:10] I don't know what I did to my wrist.

[00:55:12] I'm not wearing the brace right now, but I don't know.

[00:55:15] You can't really see the lines.

[00:55:17] I don't know what I did to it.

[00:55:19] I literally, the first day I did it, I thought I broke it.

[00:55:22] That was how painful it was to just do anything.

[00:55:26] I told you so.

[00:55:27] No, it's my left hand.

[00:55:29] Oh.

[00:55:31] The stranger.

[00:55:32] No, I'm not into the stranger.

[00:55:34] I don't do the stranger.

[00:55:36] I tried it once, but I was half asleep and then it scared me, so I don't do it anymore.

[00:55:42] I'm ambidextrous.

[00:55:45] Have you?

[00:55:46] Okay.

[00:55:47] Not to get into computers.

[00:55:48] Have you tried just reformatting the operating system?

[00:55:54] Justin, actually, I'll tell you exactly what you need to do.

[00:55:58] Eric's got you.

[00:55:59] I used to have that issue all the time.

[00:56:01] Go to your control panel.

[00:56:03] Since this is a video, you can rewind it.

[00:56:06] Go to system and security, and then go to system.

[00:56:12] And then literally scroll on down to where it says advanced system settings.

[00:56:19] Go to performance.

[00:56:21] Click settings.

[00:56:22] And where it goes visual effects, you can adjust for best performance or appearance.

[00:56:27] I always click performance.

[00:56:29] And then go to the tab that says advanced.

[00:56:33] And then literally go down to virtual memory, and it says change.

[00:56:37] Click of that.

[00:56:38] And then it says you want to custom size or do you want to system managed?

[00:56:43] I always give it a lot of space under custom size where it says megabytes.

[00:56:48] If you follow exactly what I said, you'll be able to look at it because it tells you minimum allowed, recommended.

[00:56:54] It recommends 4,000 megabytes of a total paging file.

[00:56:59] I do 20,000.

[00:57:01] Yeah.

[00:57:02] No, that's a good point.

[00:57:04] Which actually, do you have more to tell him?

[00:57:07] Nope.

[00:57:08] That was it.

[00:57:08] Well, damn.

[00:57:09] Because I should have.

[00:57:10] Easy, simple.

[00:57:10] Because I always forget the sponsorship spots.

[00:57:12] If that works.

[00:57:12] I always forget the sponsorship spots.

[00:57:14] But real quick.

[00:57:16] No.

[00:57:17] I'm saying we're an hour in, and I already forgot.

[00:57:19] But just be sure to check out our friends at Toontalk 2.0.

[00:57:22] And by our friends, I mean me, because I'm on that show.

[00:57:26] We have fun.

[00:57:27] It's similar to this, but we tend to keep it more pop culture, less politics.

[00:57:32] Whereas here, it's more politics, a little bit less than the pop culture.

[00:57:35] But honestly, we're funnier.

[00:57:38] Because Virus can't take a joke.

[00:57:40] He got real mad.

[00:57:41] He got real mad at me last night when I was criticizing his point of view.

[00:57:46] He did not like that.

[00:57:47] But check us out.

[00:57:48] It's more fun.

[00:57:48] So if you like this show, you'll like Toontalk.

[00:57:51] Hey, that's fun, though.

[00:57:52] It's fun to go back and forth.

[00:57:54] I love that shit.

[00:57:56] Yeah.

[00:57:56] It's so much fun.

[00:57:58] As long as I'm not, like, slow.

[00:58:02] You know what I mean?

[00:58:06] Sometimes the brain works really well.

[00:58:08] Sometimes it doesn't.

[00:58:09] Oh.

[00:58:15] I don't know.

[00:58:19] I don't know how long we laughed at that.

[00:58:21] Like, that was a running joke for like, what, three podcasts?

[00:58:24] Too long.

[00:58:26] Baghdad.

[00:58:27] He died like a dog.

[00:58:28] A Baghdadi.

[00:58:31] And I said, why are you crying?

[00:58:33] I wouldn't have cried.

[00:58:34] You're gay.

[00:58:35] You know what's funny is Shane Gillis talking about Trump getting, you know, pop, making fun of it.

[00:58:43] And it didn't go that way.

[00:58:45] He was.

[00:58:45] He was.

[00:58:46] He was not.

[00:58:46] He didn't make a sound.

[00:58:48] He put his fist in the air and said, fight.

[00:58:50] Wait.

[00:58:51] You know what's funny?

[00:58:51] I called that, too.

[00:58:53] Well, we both did.

[00:58:54] When he said.

[00:58:55] Oh, that shit.

[00:58:55] When he did that, I was like, he just won.

[00:58:59] Dude.

[00:59:00] He just won.

[00:59:01] Easily.

[00:59:02] Right there.

[00:59:03] Like, seriously.

[00:59:04] Seriously.

[00:59:04] Like, if you, if your side has to take out the opposite side.

[00:59:09] You're wrong.

[00:59:10] You just need.

[00:59:10] Just give it up.

[00:59:12] Like, you don't belong there.

[00:59:14] Okay.

[00:59:14] Justin got your.

[00:59:16] Cool.

[00:59:18] That's the other thing, too.

[00:59:19] And then when you had people like RFK Jr.

[00:59:21] Join his campaign.

[00:59:22] And then you had Tulsi Gabbard.

[00:59:23] Elon Musk.

[00:59:27] He said he can't get it to stay on long enough to fiddle with the settings.

[00:59:30] Oh, okay.

[00:59:31] Yeah, that's an issue.

[00:59:33] Would booting into safe mode help?

[00:59:34] Or if it's a.

[00:59:37] Maybe he just has too many.

[00:59:40] Yeah.

[00:59:40] Hey, Justin.

[00:59:41] Are you able to, like, do a small video of that and send it to me on any social media?

[00:59:49] Maybe I might be able to.

[00:59:50] He's on.

[00:59:51] Yeah.

[00:59:52] He's on the Instagram.

[00:59:53] So.

[00:59:53] Okay.

[00:59:54] Starting it up and whatnot.

[00:59:55] I'm fairly certain.

[00:59:56] Yeah.

[00:59:57] But anyway, just, you know, starting it up and whatnot and seeing what it does.

[01:00:02] But I'll do my best.

[01:00:04] If you want the help.

[01:00:04] If not, you got it.

[01:00:06] We'll get you.

[01:00:06] We'll get you.

[01:00:07] We'll get you straight now.

[01:00:09] But yeah, I was saying.

[01:00:10] And then especially when you had RFK Jr. join.

[01:00:12] Elon Musk join up.

[01:00:13] Tulsi Gabbard join up.

[01:00:14] I was just kind of like, isn't this funny how they're calling literal Hitler and he's the

[01:00:19] guy who's bringing in people from all over?

[01:00:24] It's just like I said for a long time, the left was everything that they accused Trump of doing.

[01:00:31] The left was the ones that were actually doing it.

[01:00:34] And then Sosa just illuminated me.

[01:00:35] And I looked, we looked it up.

[01:00:37] It looks like the Biden administration.

[01:00:38] What are they going to pardon Fauci for?

[01:00:40] What did he do?

[01:00:41] I mean, we know what he did, but what has he actually been like brought up on charges for?

[01:00:45] Nothing.

[01:00:46] Yeah.

[01:00:46] It's because he's, he's lied several times, like, and it's, it's well documented because

[01:00:51] there were cameras.

[01:00:52] So, yeah.

[01:00:54] Obviously lying to the American people, like, and then basically saying not to mask up and

[01:01:01] then mask up and then the vaccine works.

[01:01:04] And then it works if you get two, it works if you get six.

[01:01:08] And then it turns out you can get sick if you get too many, like, and then on top of

[01:01:13] that, the, uh, kickbacks, uh, which, uh, I don't know if it's proven or if they have

[01:01:18] any receipts, but the thing is something like that.

[01:01:22] I imagine they could probably get, uh, a, not a warrant, uh, what, what, whatever it's

[01:01:28] called, uh, subpoena subpoena.

[01:01:30] Yeah.

[01:01:30] Yeah.

[01:01:31] Subpoena to, uh, his bank records, like, because this is a very serious allegation.

[01:01:37] Yeah.

[01:01:37] Yeah.

[01:01:38] That's well, and that's, if he's getting kickbacks.

[01:01:40] Yeah.

[01:01:41] But at the same time, that's also infringing on a personal bank account.

[01:01:46] Like I'm not for the government, like, but in, but in the, in, in the, in the pursuit

[01:01:52] of a crime though, cause that's a smoking gun of evidence.

[01:02:00] So I'm, I'm okay with it as long as you follow the letter of the law.

[01:02:04] Right.

[01:02:06] Um, so I got another prediction though is I, I, I really do think you're going to see

[01:02:13] like parts of it might even be a little bit painful, but I think you're going to see a

[01:02:18] complete restructuring of the, the executive branch.

[01:02:22] Um, like in all the agencies and well, because again, Fauci, Fauci caught even more flack when

[01:02:28] those videos were released of some lab affiliated with the NIH doing the experiments on the beagle

[01:02:33] puppies.

[01:02:33] And it's just like, why, why, what, what good, like there's the only thing I think of, there's

[01:02:41] some sick fuck that likes torturing B that likes torturing puppies.

[01:02:45] And he got a job where he can get funded to do it.

[01:02:50] It's just like, what, what possible justification could you have?

[01:02:53] Have, I don't, I don't understand this.

[01:02:57] Yeah.

[01:02:58] And then when, when, when, uh, Rand Paul was asking, why are we doing this?

[01:03:02] Fauci had no idea.

[01:03:05] And it's like, yeah, you fucking did.

[01:03:07] You're the director of the NIH motherfucker.

[01:03:10] Like you either know exactly.

[01:03:12] Well, you either know, you either know when you're lying about it or you're bad at your

[01:03:16] fucking job.

[01:03:17] Either way, you should be fucking fired.

[01:03:21] You're fired.

[01:03:23] You're fired.

[01:03:24] Yeah.

[01:03:24] But Trump gave him a fucking medal.

[01:03:32] Yeah.

[01:03:32] All right, Justin.

[01:03:33] Yeah.

[01:03:35] Yeah.

[01:03:35] He must be way behind.

[01:03:38] Yeah.

[01:03:38] The delay is a bitch.

[01:03:40] Oof.

[01:03:41] Is it bad when you guys do your podcast?

[01:03:44] Which one?

[01:03:46] Any of them.

[01:03:47] Well, most, most of them are recorded actually.

[01:03:49] So with Justin.

[01:03:51] Yeah.

[01:03:51] We were still recording online though.

[01:03:53] That's what I mean.

[01:03:54] Like, well, you're using zoom.

[01:03:56] I mean, dude, I turned on my direct monitor, like on my interface and I didn't have it on

[01:04:01] the entire time.

[01:04:02] So I couldn't hear myself.

[01:04:03] And, uh, yeah, now I can hear me and it's, uh, it's annoying.

[01:04:12] Oh, I also had a feeling.

[01:04:14] I also had a feeling that X-Men 97 was going to be good.

[01:04:17] So I was right about that.

[01:04:18] And I actually, that's funny.

[01:04:20] Cause we had not a whole episode, but we had a pretty lengthy discussion about the morph

[01:04:24] character.

[01:04:26] And yeah, it, it wasn't, it wasn't even, it wasn't even really a thing.

[01:04:31] Like the journalists.

[01:04:32] I thought it was, I thought it was at the, uh, not, not what was it?

[01:04:36] The finale episode.

[01:04:37] No, people read, people read a little too much into it, honestly.

[01:04:41] And like, maybe, maybe if that's your perspective, but my point was, so you're, you're talking

[01:04:48] about when morph transforms into Jean gray, right?

[01:04:52] Yeah.

[01:04:52] That was just kind of weird.

[01:04:53] I mean, yeah, I can understand it.

[01:04:55] That was weird.

[01:04:55] But we was trying to, the, the logic in the script in universe storyline was he was trying

[01:04:59] to give Logan a reason to live.

[01:05:02] Um, but of course people, some certain people on the left side of the aisle are going to

[01:05:07] take that as like an argument.

[01:05:09] Was that really it?

[01:05:09] That was it.

[01:05:10] He was just, he was just, that's how I read it.

[01:05:12] That's how I read it.

[01:05:14] And then that, that's, that's basically what you saw.

[01:05:17] Yeah.

[01:05:17] That's what I saw.

[01:05:18] Like I'm saying, if your perspective is different, you might read it a little bit differently,

[01:05:21] but I'm mainly too much to watch it.

[01:05:25] So, I mean, I, I don't see this.

[01:05:27] The series is really good.

[01:05:29] It's really good.

[01:05:30] Good.

[01:05:32] Phenomenal even.

[01:05:33] But I remember we were having a discussion because some jackass journalists wrote that,

[01:05:38] um, that Morph didn't identify like what Morph's pronouns should be and blah, blah, blah, blah.

[01:05:45] And I'm like, this isn't even going to come up in the show.

[01:05:47] It's, it's not.

[01:05:48] And it didn't.

[01:05:50] Well, because it's, um, the character, it's a Morph character.

[01:05:53] Like, yeah, it's a shape shifter.

[01:05:55] So therefore, like whatever it was born as.

[01:06:00] Yeah.

[01:06:00] But that, that's the point.

[01:06:01] That's the point I made though, is the fact that mutant powers usually manifest around

[01:06:06] puberty.

[01:06:07] Therefore Morph was completely non shape shifting male from birth to puberty.

[01:06:12] So there you go.

[01:06:14] Yeah.

[01:06:14] He is.

[01:06:15] That's, yeah, that's genetically what it now comes down to whether or not he can alter

[01:06:18] his DNA, but that's, that's getting real.

[01:06:23] That's getting too, that's getting too deep into a rabbit hole for a fictional animated

[01:06:27] character than I really care to delve into.

[01:06:31] So basically it's just right.

[01:06:32] Far right wing pundits who, uh, who, which I'll be honest, I was a victim of that too.

[01:06:39] You know?

[01:06:39] No, no, no.

[01:06:39] It was somebody, it was somebody on the left, the right really into it.

[01:06:43] Well, no, the right didn't really care to.

[01:06:45] Yeah.

[01:06:45] They were talking about Morph's gender identity and it was just like, this isn't even a thing

[01:06:49] that's going to come up in the show.

[01:06:52] And see, that's the thing though.

[01:06:53] When we hear things like that, we assume that it's just going to go to shit because that's

[01:06:57] what happens these days.

[01:06:58] Like if, if something like has a certain actor in it or a certain publication or a certain,

[01:07:04] uh, studio, uh, yeah.

[01:07:07] Studio making the film, you just know it's gonna, it's gonna be in there.

[01:07:11] Like it's just, it's we're sick of it.

[01:07:16] Yeah.

[01:07:16] I was pretty much right about, am I racist too?

[01:07:18] Although it was funny.

[01:07:20] This wasn't a prediction, but I said daily wire needs to put their money where their mouth

[01:07:23] is and have a theatrical release.

[01:07:26] And they sure not.

[01:07:27] They didn't do it.

[01:07:28] There are two of them.

[01:07:30] What's the second one?

[01:07:31] Well, actually did, did they, what, what is a woman wasn't in theaters?

[01:07:34] No, that wasn't in theaters.

[01:07:35] No.

[01:07:37] Okay.

[01:07:37] Nevermind.

[01:07:38] All right.

[01:07:39] So it was just, uh, am I racist, which that movie was awesome.

[01:07:44] It wasn't bad.

[01:07:45] It was my, my only issue.

[01:07:48] And I said this in our review of it.

[01:07:49] Like for what it was and you know, money on it.

[01:07:52] So there, and that's, that's, that's my, that's my thing.

[01:07:55] That's my thing.

[01:07:55] And I said this in our review.

[01:07:56] And I don't like them.

[01:07:57] Well, no, the only problem I have with this is the fact that they call it a documentary

[01:08:00] when it's not a documentary, it's comedy.

[01:08:04] It's a mockumentary.

[01:08:05] Well, no, it's not a mockumentary because it's not a fake documentary.

[01:08:08] It's not like bore.

[01:08:09] Well, I guess that's right.

[01:08:10] That's right.

[01:08:10] I guess technically Borat, there are segments of bore.

[01:08:14] Well, yes, it is a fake documentary because the kid.

[01:08:16] Okay.

[01:08:16] So yes, hang on.

[01:08:18] It technically is a mockumentary.

[01:08:19] It is a mockumentary.

[01:08:20] You're right.

[01:08:21] Because Matt Walsh does not present himself as a real person.

[01:08:23] So yes, it is a mockumentary.

[01:08:26] Yeah.

[01:08:27] I didn't care for Borat either.

[01:08:29] I didn't understand why it was so popular.

[01:08:32] Like this shit was so dumb.

[01:08:33] Everybody was walking around saying, you know,

[01:08:34] I was like, shut up.

[01:08:36] Well, the funny thing is, is like Borat's kind of,

[01:08:39] this is going to be funny.

[01:08:40] Borat is kind of like a racist movie if you think about it.

[01:08:46] Because he's just basically doing a bunch of fake stereotypes

[01:08:50] about people from Kazakhstan or wherever.

[01:08:52] He's from Kazakhstan, right?

[01:08:55] I can't remember.

[01:08:57] I thought he, I didn't know.

[01:08:58] He was, I thought he was playing an actor.

[01:09:00] I thought he was.

[01:09:01] He is, but the character, the character is.

[01:09:04] Sorry, disconnected.

[01:09:05] Why?

[01:09:06] Okay.

[01:09:06] Why?

[01:09:07] Why?

[01:09:07] I don't know.

[01:09:08] I might, I might be having internet issues.

[01:09:10] Just FYI.

[01:09:11] So I don't know people in the comments.

[01:09:14] Is Borat racist?

[01:09:15] Because I kind of feel like it is, but I get it.

[01:09:17] It's comedy.

[01:09:18] Dumb.

[01:09:18] Yeah.

[01:09:19] That's just it.

[01:09:20] It's, it's dumb, but it's all.

[01:09:21] I'm just pointing out the irony of typically the side of the aisle that always cries.

[01:09:26] Racism does a lot of really racist shit.

[01:09:29] Absolutely.

[01:09:29] But at the same time, like I, I can say it's dumb,

[01:09:32] but I watched trailer park boys and loved it.

[01:09:35] So.

[01:09:36] I've never actually seen trailer park boys.

[01:09:39] I've been told.

[01:09:40] It's, it's literally us just without drugs and alcohol as kids.

[01:09:45] Dude.

[01:09:45] It was, it's so much fun.

[01:09:47] Like literally it did.

[01:09:48] It's.

[01:09:49] I don't know, dude.

[01:09:50] It's just about three best friends who they don't give up on each other.

[01:09:54] And they're just all idiots.

[01:09:56] Except Bubbles.

[01:09:56] He's mildly not an idiot.

[01:09:59] I didn't care for the first.

[01:10:04] Julián's performance in the second one.

[01:10:06] Was he?

[01:10:07] What?

[01:10:07] What second one?

[01:10:08] What?

[01:10:08] Yeah.

[01:10:09] Borat too, where he brings his daughter in on it.

[01:10:12] Not his actual, not his actual daughter.

[01:10:15] His in character.

[01:10:16] Oh yeah.

[01:10:16] The, the part where he like actually needed help unbuttoning his pants and,

[01:10:20] and then like they came in and tried to act like all weird.

[01:10:24] No, he was pretty fucking weird.

[01:10:27] I'm going to say, I saw that scene.

[01:10:28] He was, he was.

[01:10:30] Oh dude.

[01:10:30] Trailer park boys are Canadian national treasures.

[01:10:33] They are world national treasures.

[01:10:34] Now they don't just belong to you.

[01:10:36] No mo.

[01:10:38] They're, they're internationally.

[01:10:41] I tell you what, like, uh, I can't think it was 2016.

[01:10:46] My, uh, my son was just born and I was stuck at home and I was like,

[01:10:52] you know what?

[01:10:53] I'm going to give this trailer park boys a watch, you know?

[01:10:56] Cause I, I'd saw a few videos online.

[01:10:57] I was like, you know what?

[01:10:59] I binge watched the entire series.

[01:11:02] What was out at the time in like less than a couple of days.

[01:11:05] And I was just, it was so good.

[01:11:08] I, I don't know.

[01:11:09] Like if you like it, you like it, but if you don't, you don't like, there's no way in between.

[01:11:14] That I said, it strikes me.

[01:11:16] It strikes me as one of those shows.

[01:11:18] Um, I was making a point and I completely space.

[01:11:21] I think I was alluding to the fact that like the left just pushed too far.

[01:11:26] And I, I know I said, we've said it on several episodes.

[01:11:29] We just like you guys, it's going to come back to bite you.

[01:11:32] And it did.

[01:11:33] And I really do wish that they hadn't pushed so hard because now there's going to be a massive

[01:11:41] overcorrection to the conservative side, which you've said this and it might be right.

[01:11:46] We might need it to correct the status quo, so to speak.

[01:11:50] But what I've been saying it for years, the pendulum just keeps swinging and it went too

[01:11:56] far left.

[01:11:57] And now it's going to swing back to right.

[01:11:58] And it always, the thing about a pendulum is it always swings back equally to the force

[01:12:02] applied to it.

[01:12:03] So there is going to be a massive shift to the shift to the right and the conservative.

[01:12:07] And you're going to see me sound a lot more liberal on this podcast because I've never

[01:12:12] not been a moderate.

[01:12:14] I don't think, I don't, I honestly, I don't think it'll be that case.

[01:12:17] No, I honestly think, uh, common sense is going to take, see, I, I, I'm, I'm hopeful

[01:12:24] because again, the other thing that we're not the only ones that pointed this out.

[01:12:28] I mean, it's pretty well demonstrably true is the fact that I don't think.

[01:12:34] That I, my personal belief is that the center shifted.

[01:12:41] So like we, we've talked about this, like you had, you had the, the left, which this

[01:12:46] is, this would be your right on screen.

[01:12:48] So the right and the left, and it used to be right in the middle, but then hang on, I

[01:12:52] got to think about this.

[01:12:53] But then it shifted.

[01:12:54] The right had to catch up to the center.

[01:12:56] If that makes sense.

[01:12:57] The right, the right.

[01:12:58] Well, the center had been be a little more.

[01:13:01] The center shifted, right?

[01:13:03] Because the left went so far.

[01:13:05] Is because now the Republican party, generally speaking, is just kind of like, yeah, we're

[01:13:11] just kind of the Republican party as a general, like there's still people on the fringes that

[01:13:15] are like still anti gay marriage and whatnot.

[01:13:17] But even, you know, somebody like Ben Shapiro says all the time, like I'm religiously against

[01:13:22] gay marriage, but I'm, I'm not in favor of a law, like outlawing it because I believe

[01:13:27] that consenting adults should be able to do what they see fit.

[01:13:33] Absolutely.

[01:13:34] Absolutely.

[01:13:34] Just don't try to force anyone.

[01:13:37] Well, that's just it.

[01:13:38] Don't force beliefs on anyone.

[01:13:40] Like, and that includes gay people, religious people, like just leave them alone.

[01:13:45] Like, you know, that's the thing.

[01:13:46] Like in our church, a bakery, you know about this, the bakery that basically refused a gay

[01:13:55] couple's wedding cake.

[01:13:57] And then it was a big thing.

[01:13:58] And they ended up having to close their business because they refused to because they're,

[01:14:01] they're church going people and they believe a certain way and they they're allowed to refuse

[01:14:06] anybody.

[01:14:06] But yet they were almost sued.

[01:14:08] I don't know if they were sued or whatnot, but you know, it's like, it's like, why, why,

[01:14:12] why continue?

[01:14:13] If they don't support you, why would you even make it a big deal?

[01:14:16] Just like, okay.

[01:14:17] So you don't want my money.

[01:14:18] Okay.

[01:14:18] I'll go elsewhere.

[01:14:19] Yeah.

[01:14:19] That's kind of the point that I always make is that capitalism is the best form of equality

[01:14:24] because eventually like with that same case, I was like, why would you want to patronize

[01:14:31] a bakery that says they don't want to serve your, you know, well, and that's like an LGBT

[01:14:38] bakery.

[01:14:39] Like, do you think a Christian's going to walk in there and ask them to make them a Christian

[01:14:42] cake?

[01:14:43] No, because they're not fucking stupid.

[01:14:46] No.

[01:14:47] Yeah.

[01:14:47] So it's, it's just kind of one of those things.

[01:14:50] And yeah, to your point, I don't think that was so much because like, obviously there, I

[01:14:56] don't even remember what was said.

[01:14:56] I think it was in California.

[01:14:57] Wasn't it?

[01:15:00] No, here in Indiana, brother.

[01:15:01] I know.

[01:15:01] Well, was it here in Indiana?

[01:15:04] Oh no.

[01:15:04] I'm thinking about the bigger case.

[01:15:06] The big.

[01:15:08] This was a huge one for like a huge lawsuit.

[01:15:10] I want to say I'm thinking of another, but anyway, it's like, I don't, I don't want

[01:15:14] to, I don't want to bring up their name just in case.

[01:15:16] Fair enough.

[01:15:17] Everybody can look it up for themselves.

[01:15:18] I think, I think the big one that made like national headlines was in California, but regardless

[01:15:22] anywhere you go in a big city, there's going to be plenty of bakeries that are perfectly

[01:15:27] fine and probably, you know, excited to do.

[01:15:30] Of course it's in California too.

[01:15:32] Yeah.

[01:15:33] It's, it's, but at the same time, like I, I understand both sides, but it goes back to

[01:15:41] why would you want to patronize a place that doesn't want to serve you for that?

[01:15:44] You know, I just, I just don't get it.

[01:15:47] Like it's literally just giving away your energy to something extreme.

[01:15:52] Well, now granted and granted, granted my perspective is skewed on this because I'm not

[01:15:55] gay and I don't need a gay wedding cake.

[01:15:58] You know, maybe if I was, I'd feel differently about it.

[01:16:01] If we're being honest.

[01:16:05] I don't need a gay wedding cake.

[01:16:07] We ain't got no goddamn band, Randy.

[01:16:11] Well, no, but seriously, like, I guess like the closest thing I could think of in my perspective

[01:16:16] is if I went somewhere and was like, yes, I need a wedding cake.

[01:16:20] That's a god.

[01:16:20] Cause, cause my, my, my wife and I getting married, we need a wedding cake.

[01:16:24] And they're like, oh, well we only do gay weddings.

[01:16:26] And I just be like, so you don't want my money.

[01:16:29] That seems a little weird.

[01:16:31] Um, but okay.

[01:16:33] I guess I'll go to another, but like, I'd be more confused than angry, but just kind of

[01:16:36] be like, all right, that's a little fucked up, but whatever.

[01:16:41] See, I would just, I would just be like, I don't know.

[01:16:45] Like it's, it's, I like money.

[01:16:47] Money's green.

[01:16:48] I don't care.

[01:16:49] But this is what I would say to the bakery though.

[01:16:51] And again, I understand they have religious convictions, but at the same time, it's like,

[01:16:56] I'm the same way.

[01:16:56] I like money.

[01:16:57] I like, I don't give a fuck.

[01:16:58] Like in my business, I serve whoever the fuck walks in that door.

[01:17:01] I don't give a fuck.

[01:17:02] If there was like something derogatory on it.

[01:17:04] Sure.

[01:17:05] But if it's.

[01:17:05] Yeah.

[01:17:06] Yeah.

[01:17:06] Yeah.

[01:17:06] But that's not.

[01:17:07] Yeah.

[01:17:07] I've been on it.

[01:17:07] It's like, whatever.

[01:17:09] I don't care.

[01:17:10] They're just really good friends.

[01:17:12] But at the same time, that's, that's their right.

[01:17:14] You know?

[01:17:14] Yeah.

[01:17:15] Suck it.

[01:17:17] Or don't.

[01:17:18] I mean, religious freedom.

[01:17:19] It's your choice.

[01:17:20] Within the first fricking amendment.

[01:17:21] Like, like I, I, I keep, uh, I've been watching a lot of the, I think I've told you

[01:17:28] this before, but I watch a lot of cop videos and first amendment auditors and I can't

[01:17:32] stand them, but I'm intrigued by them.

[01:17:34] Yeah.

[01:17:34] I know what you mean.

[01:17:35] It's like they're obnoxious, but.

[01:17:36] Well, because the thing is they're literally just expressing their rights and then people

[01:17:42] get so heated over it and they're so nervous from a camera.

[01:17:45] And I'm like, at the same time though, I'm just like, dude, like if people are going to

[01:17:48] the fricking post office and they're just grabbing stuff, they don't want it.

[01:17:51] Yeah.

[01:17:52] A lot of people don't want to be on camera.

[01:17:54] Like, yeah.

[01:17:54] Well, because you're acting like a fucking weirdo.

[01:17:57] Let's, let's be honest.

[01:17:58] A lot of them will just go in there and just start filming like, and just not say anything.

[01:18:02] And people do, they get upset with that.

[01:18:05] But at the same time, I would literally wave at your camera and, and you know, if I find

[01:18:09] out what you're doing, I was like, dude, right on.

[01:18:11] All right.

[01:18:12] Later.

[01:18:12] You know, I don't want to sit there and talk to you because the worst thing you can do

[01:18:16] to someone with a camera that if you don't want to be on camera is walk up to them.

[01:18:22] Well, yeah.

[01:18:22] And that's, that's true.

[01:18:23] And it depends on where you are though, because there, in some places there is an expectation

[01:18:27] of privacy.

[01:18:28] And plus if you're just walking around with a camera, like sure.

[01:18:33] There's no expectation of privacy in public, no matter what you can't trespass the eyes

[01:18:37] and a camera, it counts as eyes.

[01:18:40] It depends on where you are.

[01:18:43] Where?

[01:18:44] Well, for example, in a courthouse, you're not allowed to have a camera unless you have

[01:18:48] authorization.

[01:18:50] Well, is that a public setting inside, inside the courthouse you can film?

[01:18:55] Okay.

[01:18:55] Yes, you're right.

[01:18:55] You're right.

[01:18:56] Not inside the courtroom.

[01:18:57] Yeah.

[01:18:58] You're right.

[01:18:58] So yeah, you're right.

[01:18:59] That's not a public space.

[01:19:00] Yeah.

[01:19:00] Any restricted areas.

[01:19:02] I'm telling you, I've been watching too much.

[01:19:03] I've been watching.

[01:19:04] I think, I'm so happy though, that I finally, I finally got you to understand why these fucking,

[01:19:09] um, wow, God, what do they call them?

[01:19:11] It's not imminent.

[01:19:12] Don't, what am I?

[01:19:13] Sovereign citizens.

[01:19:14] Why all these fuckers are so stupid.

[01:19:16] I still, I still don't even quite, like a sovereign citizen.

[01:19:20] Isn't that essentially a cop?

[01:19:22] No, no, no, no.

[01:19:23] So these are, these are the people it's usually for, they get busted for traffic infractions

[01:19:28] that are like, Oh my jurisdiction, right to travel.

[01:19:31] It's like, no, you're fucking wrong.

[01:19:34] No, they're actually not wrong.

[01:19:35] Like I've looked into it.

[01:19:37] No, they're, they are dead wrong.

[01:19:39] They are dead wrong.

[01:19:39] If, if they're being pulled over for a certain thing that has to do with a commercial vehicle,

[01:19:45] like I'm not talking like speeding or anything like that, or, or, you know, like, but if

[01:19:50] you are pulled over and there's nothing else they get you on, and let's say you don't have

[01:19:54] a license as soon as they pull you over.

[01:19:56] If the only thing they're getting you on is the no license, it is your private property.

[01:20:01] And you do, you do have a right to freely travel.

[01:20:05] Like it's not by car institution.

[01:20:07] Not by car.

[01:20:08] Oh no, absolutely.

[01:20:09] Absolutely.

[01:20:09] Like there are several cases that have already won.

[01:20:12] No, they don't.

[01:20:13] I'll send them to you.

[01:20:14] They don't win though.

[01:20:15] They don't win.

[01:20:16] They have already won.

[01:20:18] That's what I'm trying to tell you.

[01:20:19] Oh my God.

[01:20:21] That doesn't apply.

[01:20:23] They can't stop you from walking or biking across state lines, but they can stop you from

[01:20:28] driving on any road.

[01:20:30] And the travel, the travel statute only applies to interstate travel.

[01:20:34] So if you get pulled over in your home state without a license, that doesn't apply.

[01:20:38] Well, see, now, now, now, now, now you're, you're, you're getting into a lot of different

[01:20:41] like areas.

[01:20:42] I was being vague.

[01:20:45] I think I would need a more specific example.

[01:20:51] It's funny.

[01:20:52] We argue, we argue about this so much off podcast, but I sent you like three videos

[01:20:58] of them getting the book thrown at them.

[01:21:03] I just, uh, Google has not been working correctly for me ever since they, uh, flipped over to,

[01:21:11] uh, flipped over to, uh, what is it?

[01:21:13] Uh, the AI, like I have to learn how to Google now again.

[01:21:19] Oh, see, I love the, I love the AI answers.

[01:21:22] They're very helpful.

[01:21:22] Oh, I do too, because I, how it bullet points everything and whatnot.

[01:21:26] And I would look it up, but like every time I type my, uh, microphone, it sounds like it's

[01:21:32] what's this?

[01:21:34] We'll tell you what.

[01:21:35] I don't know if you can hear it.

[01:21:37] Yeah.

[01:21:38] That's, that's the big one.

[01:21:39] Yeah.

[01:21:39] I bet you if they had a lawyer, they, they might win some of those cases.

[01:21:42] Exactly.

[01:21:43] Exactly.

[01:21:43] Because like, like I said, you know, the, the right, uh, to possess what, what is it?

[01:21:48] Uh, I think it's, uh, I, I, I don't know.

[01:21:52] I, I'd have to look it up.

[01:21:53] It's, uh, I'm not a constitutional scholar, but if you play one on TV, if you would like

[01:22:00] take a moment to look it up and I will tell everyone about our other sponsor, the complete

[01:22:06] guide to happiness with Dr.

[01:22:08] Fantastic.

[01:22:08] And instead of me just talking to you about it, we've got a video.

[01:22:12] Come with me to discover the transformative power of kindness and the joy it brings.

[01:22:18] Join me as we explore every Monday morning, simple yet profound ways to elevate your happiness

[01:22:24] one gesture at a time.

[01:22:32] Oh, wow.

[01:22:33] Fantastic baby.

[01:22:44] Right to travel.

[01:22:45] Like what the fuck else?

[01:22:47] So are we going to use, are we going to use, uh, buggies and horses?

[01:22:51] Yes.

[01:22:51] That's, that's one means of travel that you can use or you can walk or you can fly.

[01:22:56] You pay tax.

[01:22:57] You pay taxes.

[01:22:58] Like, you know, whatnot.

[01:22:59] Like you can take a tax.

[01:23:00] I honestly, I honestly, you know, fuck license.

[01:23:05] Like I'm, I'm, I'm so over it.

[01:23:07] Like I would rather have anarchy at this point.

[01:23:11] I'm just going to go take what I want.

[01:23:15] But you're me.

[01:23:16] Be your bread.

[01:23:19] But yes, you can join Dr. Fantastic every Monday morning at 8 a.m.

[01:23:23] to get your little dose of happiness and learn how to spread that happiness like other stuff.

[01:23:28] It's so hard to not make jokes about that because I don't want to make it reflect poorly on another

[01:23:36] podcast on the network, but God, they're always there.

[01:23:39] Spread happiness like herpes.

[01:23:41] Please.

[01:23:48] I'll have to do some more, uh, some more Googling because I can't find what I'm talking about.

[01:23:54] Absolutely.

[01:23:54] Prove me wrong.

[01:23:55] Make me look stupid.

[01:23:56] No, I'm not trying to make you look stupid.

[01:23:58] I'm just saying.

[01:23:58] I said, I said, I said Google's making me look stupid because it's not working for me.

[01:24:01] Google it.

[01:24:04] But no, my thing is every, everything I've seen is my favorite ones are when they're arguing

[01:24:09] with the cop and the cop just arrests them.

[01:24:11] Those are my favorites.

[01:24:13] It's because it's like, motherfucker, you did it to yourself.

[01:24:15] It depends on what they're like arguing about and then how the cop goes about it because

[01:24:21] the cop can't just arrest you over feelings.

[01:24:25] Like no matter what you say to him, as long as it's, as long as you're not saying anything

[01:24:29] threatening, it doesn't matter if you're in a threatening manner.

[01:24:31] Like, I mean, yeah, if you're coming up and putting your hand in his face, but if you

[01:24:35] stay back and you just say, I think you're a fucking idiot, they can't touch you one bit.

[01:24:40] But the thing is, you know how many cops do?

[01:24:42] Well, yeah.

[01:24:43] And the thing is, there'll be people driving by and flipping off a car and flipping off

[01:24:46] a cop and they'll pull them over.

[01:24:48] And it's like, that's actually retaliation because that's a protected first amendment

[01:24:52] activity.

[01:24:53] Sorry, fuck off.

[01:24:54] The argument I would make as a cop that is now you're driving recklessly because you're

[01:24:58] purposely taking your eyes off the road.

[01:25:00] Boy, you sound just like those cops, man.

[01:25:03] Oh, I'm sorry, but I'm a big, I'm a big proponent of fuck around and find out.

[01:25:09] And that's fucking around.

[01:25:10] No, not with law enforcement, not with law enforcement.

[01:25:13] They have a job to do.

[01:25:14] To a point.

[01:25:15] They're peacekeepers and they're law enforcement.

[01:25:18] So why are these people flipping them off then?

[01:25:21] That's my.

[01:25:23] Because they can.

[01:25:23] It's the first amendment.

[01:25:24] Fuck you, pig.

[01:25:27] That gets insane.

[01:25:29] That's the thing.

[01:25:30] I'm going to have to record it now.

[01:25:31] I'm just going to go flip on it off and then see what they do.

[01:25:33] Because the thing is, these guys, they literally get lawsuits from these cops and then they

[01:25:37] literally sue the stations and then they always settle out of court.

[01:25:40] And then that's how a lot of these first amendment auditors get paid.

[01:25:42] They literally sue over people breaking their rights.

[01:25:46] And at the same time, it's like, you know what?

[01:25:47] Cops, if you just stop.

[01:25:50] Working in your feelings.

[01:25:52] We might be a better place.

[01:25:54] Maybe there wouldn't be Rodney Kings and stuff like this, you know?

[01:25:57] Well, I'm not going to say George Floyd.

[01:25:59] That was a little different.

[01:25:59] There's an element to Rodney King that doesn't get talked about enough.

[01:26:06] And I'm not justifying it.

[01:26:07] I'm not saying those cops were right.

[01:26:09] But everybody seems to forget about the very dangerous high-speed chase that he led them

[01:26:18] on prior to his.

[01:26:19] Oh, yeah.

[01:26:20] Yeah.

[01:26:20] But at the same time, it doesn't.

[01:26:22] It doesn't.

[01:26:22] No, no.

[01:26:23] It doesn't justify the force.

[01:26:24] It does not.

[01:26:25] It absolutely does not.

[01:26:26] I'm just saying.

[01:26:27] That's kind of a.

[01:26:28] I'm just saying that a wrong.

[01:26:30] That a wrong.

[01:26:31] Because it's the George Ford thing, too.

[01:26:33] A wrong being perpetrated against someone does not automatically make that person a saint.

[01:26:37] Right.

[01:26:38] Justin said, I want to know who the original sovereign citizen was.

[01:26:42] Like, who was the first guy to think to say that stuff?

[01:26:46] Sovereign citizen.

[01:26:47] Is that in our constitution?

[01:26:49] No.

[01:26:49] Not under those terminologies.

[01:26:51] So where the fuck did the.

[01:26:53] I'll be honest.

[01:26:53] It was probably a lawyer the first time.

[01:26:55] And he probably argued a good case.

[01:26:57] And then a bunch of people saw videos on the internet.

[01:26:58] And they're like, I'm a sovereign citizen, too.

[01:27:01] Constitution.

[01:27:02] Rights.

[01:27:03] Laws.

[01:27:05] Regulations.

[01:27:06] Jurisdiction.

[01:27:07] And they just started saying words that they don't understand.

[01:27:09] My favorite.

[01:27:10] One of my favorite ones.

[01:27:11] Go ahead.

[01:27:12] Oh, no.

[01:27:13] One of my favorite ones is some dickhead gets pulled over.

[01:27:17] And he's like, you don't have jurisdiction.

[01:27:18] He says this to the cop.

[01:27:19] He's like, you don't have jurisdiction.

[01:27:20] The cop is like, I am with the Wisconsin State Police.

[01:27:23] The entire state is my jurisdiction.

[01:27:26] Get out of the fucking car.

[01:27:27] Yeah, there's a lot of First Amendment auditors out there who, like, don't know their stuff.

[01:27:32] And I'm just like, please, don't just go out there thinking you can do this.

[01:27:37] Like, I feel like I know a little bit, but I would never do that because, for one, you're a fucking parasite.

[01:27:43] Well, here's the thing.

[01:27:45] Here's the thing.

[01:27:46] The best advice I think I've ever seen is there was a constitutional attorney who was very much in favor of, like, the sentiment of the sovereign citizens.

[01:27:56] But even he says, if a cop tells you to do something, you do it.

[01:28:00] And if he's, you know, infringing upon your rights, you take care of that after the fact.

[01:28:08] Well, actually, I mean, yes, you're right.

[01:28:10] But just make sure that you, if he's had a body cam or, you know, well, yeah, document it.

[01:28:16] But at the same time, tell him first, like, will you arrest me if I do not comply with your demands?

[01:28:22] And if they say yes, do what they say.

[01:28:25] Yeah.

[01:28:26] Fight it in court because then most times they settle out of court.

[01:28:29] Yeah, usually.

[01:28:30] And then that's the other thing, too, is it's like I'm still a big fan of, like, yeah, don't consent to a search.

[01:28:35] Make him get a warrant.

[01:28:37] Whether you have nothing to hide or not because it's the principle.

[01:28:39] Oh, absolutely.

[01:28:40] Now, that being said, that being said, as a melanin deficient man, it's a little bit easier for me to say that.

[01:28:53] Oh, bullshit.

[01:28:55] Hmm.

[01:28:56] Nah.

[01:28:58] I mean, no stats to back any of that up.

[01:29:00] There are, actually.

[01:29:01] There's a lot of there's a there's quite a few social experiments, legitimate ones that have been done as well.

[01:29:07] Now, that's not every cop.

[01:29:09] That's I know.

[01:29:10] But like if we're going to get to it, like what about women cop like cops?

[01:29:15] Like did they walk up like they're not all women cops, but most of them walk up like they're just tough shit and they just act like this.

[01:29:21] And obviously, you know, but then like some about this.

[01:29:25] It's just a good idea to comply with person.

[01:29:29] Yeah.

[01:29:29] That's just it.

[01:29:30] Comply reasonably with requests, you know, and if don't comply with unreasonable requests.

[01:29:35] That's it.

[01:29:36] Yeah.

[01:29:36] And if an unreasonable request is made, you know, it goes back to like don't consent to a search unless they have a warrant.

[01:29:43] If things seem to be getting dicey, ask him to call supervisor.

[01:29:47] All that stuff is fine.

[01:29:50] Because there was another there's another video I saw where the guy was 100 percent in the right and he wasn't complying, but he also wasn't being violent.

[01:29:58] He I forget why because there was no good reason for it.

[01:30:02] He lives in the he was at the pool at an apartment complex, I believe.

[01:30:06] And because somebody made a call like because he was in the apartment complex's pool and somebody made a call or something and he ended up getting handcuffed on the pavement.

[01:30:15] And then a supervisor outside because they didn't want to just fucking listen to him.

[01:30:21] Yeah.

[01:30:22] They just wouldn't shut their traps for five seconds to get some information like and that cop was totally in the wrong 100 percent.

[01:30:30] But the thing is, he remained calm and he wasn't hostile about it, but he you talking about the guy on the ground.

[01:30:36] He was I mean, he was he was calm physically, but that's what I mean.

[01:30:39] That's the name of the book.

[01:30:40] Yeah.

[01:30:41] Yeah.

[01:30:41] But that's the thing is he didn't he didn't get too aggressive for that situation.

[01:30:45] But all he says is like, call your supervisor and the supervisor came and it ended up getting sorted out.

[01:30:51] And yeah.

[01:30:53] So another one.

[01:30:55] Damn it.

[01:30:56] I had it.

[01:30:57] And then story went on long.

[01:30:59] I don't know.

[01:31:00] But it was another First Amendment auditor or not.

[01:31:03] Not First Amendment auditor, but a cop video.

[01:31:05] I can't remember what it was.

[01:31:07] It was actually pretty, pretty decent.

[01:31:10] And it actually.

[01:31:11] Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[01:31:12] Now I remember.

[01:31:12] So we were talking earlier about the guy driving and flipping off a vehicle, you know, flipping off cop.

[01:31:19] And you said reckless driving, blah, blah, blah.

[01:31:22] This other guy was walking his dog and his wife was pushing their baby in a stroller.

[01:31:27] He's on the sidewalk, not doing anything damaging.

[01:31:30] Cop drives by.

[01:31:31] He flips him off.

[01:31:32] Cop stops.

[01:31:33] Are you OK?

[01:31:34] Do you need help?

[01:31:35] This is not.

[01:31:35] He's like, no, I just don't.

[01:31:36] I just don't like law enforcement, you know, and he's like, oh, well, that's your right.

[01:31:40] And he actually ends up arresting the guy.

[01:31:44] So like.

[01:31:45] Yeah, see, that is.

[01:31:48] You know, it's basically cops living in their feelings like, you know, and then this is a lot of people anymore.

[01:31:54] It's like, listen, do your are you do your feelings override rights?

[01:31:57] No, no, they never do.

[01:31:59] Sorry.

[01:32:00] No.

[01:32:00] So that's that's another thing.

[01:32:02] Like, you know, if I'm driving, I can stick my hand out the window and I don't have to look.

[01:32:09] Do you look at your hands while you're driving?

[01:32:11] I mean, I know it's 10 and 2, but like, do you look directly at your hands?

[01:32:14] I know they're in the vicinity, you know, but like you're not looking directly at your hands.

[01:32:18] You're looking in front of you, behind you in the mirrors and whatnot.

[01:32:22] So it's like, no, that wouldn't fly.

[01:32:25] Boy, I wouldn't be a constitutional lawyer.

[01:32:30] I don't know.

[01:32:31] It just fires me up.

[01:32:32] I like it.

[01:32:33] Well, we're about to see a lot of this.

[01:32:36] The other prediction I have is there's a lot of stuff that Trump is going to try to do.

[01:32:41] And justifiably or not, depends on what you're talking about, is they are going to fight him tooth and nail.

[01:32:47] Now, granted, he has both houses of Congress, so best of luck to you.

[01:32:50] But there's going to be so many fucking lawsuits, dude.

[01:32:53] If he has common sense, if common sense leads, stuff's going to get passed.

[01:32:59] Well, no.

[01:33:00] And there's not crazy stuff like trying to force Mexico into paying for something.

[01:33:04] It's like, well, what's what's funny is I saw a video of somebody was doing compilations of like the liberals talking about Trump's tariffs.

[01:33:13] And one of them was like, oh, they're so stupid.

[01:33:16] He's already he's already put tariffs on Mexico.

[01:33:19] And he was like, no, because when he threatened to put the tariffs on, the Mexican government has already broken up to migrant caravans under the threat of a tariff.

[01:33:28] Yeah, exactly.

[01:33:30] That's the thing, man.

[01:33:30] If you threaten people with their pocket money, they're going to change.

[01:33:34] That's like China.

[01:33:36] It's like, well, where do you think they're going to sell all their stuff if we put huge tariffs on them and they can't make any money here in the States?

[01:33:43] Guess what?

[01:33:44] They're going to go bankrupt.

[01:33:45] Except like.

[01:33:47] You know, hell, their people don't make enough money to pay for all buy all those things that they they make.

[01:33:52] Actually, I don't know.

[01:33:53] Well, and what's what's going to be very interesting.

[01:33:56] I'm interested to see what Trump actually.

[01:34:00] As far as what he's talked about doing, because he's floated a lot of ideas, but he hasn't really said for sure whether he was going to implement them or not or try.

[01:34:07] One of those was being like, get rid of the federal income tax and replace it with tariffs.

[01:34:14] I keep talking about Ben Shapiro, but it was a funny response because he was just like, yeah.

[01:34:18] First, Trump is talking about tariffs and I'm like, but then he says tariffs instead of income tax.

[01:34:22] Huh?

[01:34:52] Are you talking about strictly income tax or just all the taxes?

[01:34:56] Total.

[01:34:57] I said all.

[01:34:57] I said all taxes.

[01:34:58] OK, yeah, yeah.

[01:34:59] All taxes.

[01:35:00] Yeah, probably is about 50 percent when you it varies a little bit.

[01:35:03] But it varies a little bit from person to person because it depends on your situation.

[01:35:07] But well, the thing is, you you buy things every single day.

[01:35:11] That's what I'm.

[01:35:11] Yeah, whether whether it be gas or anything like that, you have gas tax, you know, you have that.

[01:35:16] That's that's everything.

[01:35:17] You take a fart, you have tax, you know, it's it, man.

[01:35:21] I'm telling you, some some European country is going to start charging a fart tax because it's technically a greenhouse gas.

[01:35:27] We we rebelled and started a country over two percent and now we're 51 and everybody's just cooking.

[01:35:34] Two percent that we didn't even two percent that we didn't even fucking pay.

[01:35:39] Like, seriously, like and then everybody's just laying down and taking it like like it's it's fucking it's.

[01:35:45] No, I'm sorry.

[01:35:46] I'm sorry.

[01:35:47] I'm sorry.

[01:35:47] I have to dig further into this.

[01:35:48] A two percent tax that wasn't even enforced because Britain repealed all the other taxes except for the tax on T and they didn't even.

[01:35:59] No, because the colonists literally said, fuck your tax.

[01:36:02] We're not paying it.

[01:36:03] And they never fucking enforced it.

[01:36:06] OK, so Justin says, I have a question.

[01:36:09] What do you think post Trump?

[01:36:11] Does he have a successor?

[01:36:13] Will the party come together behind J.D.

[01:36:16] Vance?

[01:36:16] Because it seems like a lot of people voted just for Trump.

[01:36:20] I think it depends on how he plays that.

[01:36:22] I think if he does a good job as far as Republicans are concerned.

[01:36:27] Yeah, I think they'll fall right in line behind J.D.

[01:36:29] Vance, who would be his figurative successor.

[01:36:32] Now, if he manages to not get a whole lot done.

[01:36:35] Yeah, exactly.

[01:36:36] It all depends on if if all the well, not all the parties, but all the branches of government come together and actually get things done that are needed for.

[01:36:47] Basically, restoration of this country.

[01:36:48] Like, like we have to be honest.

[01:36:51] So, like, we need restoration like this.

[01:36:52] This country is there's a lot of stuff that's been fucked up for a long time in both parties.

[01:36:57] Trudeau, Trudeau and Trump have already met.

[01:36:59] So, like, and then Trudeau was saying how good he was.

[01:37:01] And it's like, yeah, listen to your cuck boy.

[01:37:03] You just don't want Pierre to take over your position.

[01:37:05] Oh, my God.

[01:37:06] Speaking of Trudeau.

[01:37:07] I like him.

[01:37:08] This is so funny.

[01:37:10] This is so fucking funny.

[01:37:13] And what kills me, though, is that there I saw a legitimate opinion piece talking about how like Trump is Satan because he wants to take over Canada.

[01:37:22] And I'm like, you do understand that was a joke, right?

[01:37:25] Because apparently Trudeau said something to the effect of like, well, if if if they implement these tariffs, it'll ruin the economy of Canada.

[01:37:32] And then Trump apparently said is like, well, Canada can be the 51st state.

[01:37:37] It's a fucking joke, people.

[01:37:41] Could you imagine, though?

[01:37:42] Well, it wouldn't be one state.

[01:37:44] It would be how many provinces are there, five or seven?

[01:37:47] Justin, how many Canadian are there, seven provinces?

[01:37:51] I think there's seven.

[01:37:52] Hold on.

[01:37:53] Let's test my Canadian geography.

[01:37:54] We got.

[01:37:55] Hey, Siri, how many provinces are there in Canada?

[01:37:58] Hold on.

[01:37:59] I want to know.

[01:38:00] Canada.

[01:38:02] Don't tell me.

[01:38:03] I was trying to stop her.

[01:38:04] You didn't hear it, did you?

[01:38:05] No, I didn't.

[01:38:06] So we got I know we got Newfoundland.

[01:38:08] We got Ontario.

[01:38:09] Alberta.

[01:38:11] Quebec.

[01:38:15] I know a lot of cities, but I can't fucking.

[01:38:20] Justin's going to say it.

[01:38:21] Damn it.

[01:38:21] My chat keeps disconnecting.

[01:38:24] Nine provinces.

[01:38:25] Nine provinces and three territories.

[01:38:28] Fuck.

[01:38:29] OK, so apparently it's that.

[01:38:30] Well, according to Siri, I don't know if it's true or not.

[01:38:33] She said 10.

[01:38:34] 10 provinces.

[01:38:35] 10 provinces.

[01:38:37] Hold on.

[01:38:37] I must say, Siri, how many provinces are there in Canada?

[01:38:41] Canada has 10 provinces and three territories.

[01:38:46] So close.

[01:38:47] 10 and three.

[01:38:50] Hold on.

[01:38:50] I'm looking this up because I got to know.

[01:38:52] We also have a poor education system.

[01:38:53] Oh, I know about.

[01:38:54] I knew about Manitoba.

[01:38:55] So we got Alberta, Manitoba.

[01:38:58] That's where Winnipeg is.

[01:39:00] Newfoundland and Labrador.

[01:39:01] Prince Edward Island.

[01:39:03] The Northwest Territories.

[01:39:05] Nunavut.

[01:39:05] He forgot Quebec.

[01:39:06] British Columbia.

[01:39:08] Ontario.

[01:39:08] Quebec.

[01:39:09] New Brunswick.

[01:39:10] And Nova Scotia.

[01:39:13] Hey, we don't have much of a better education system down here, man.

[01:39:17] And that's simply just because of government regulation.

[01:39:20] They privatize it and watch how smart kids get really fast.

[01:39:24] And the territories of the Northwest Territories, Nunavut and the Yukon.

[01:39:28] It's a boot.

[01:39:30] That's a boot.

[01:39:31] It.

[01:39:32] So, yeah.

[01:39:34] That's Canadian.

[01:39:34] Come on, buddy.

[01:39:36] Ah, fuck you, buddy.

[01:39:40] What's your name?

[01:39:42] It's AQ.

[01:39:46] Fuck you.

[01:39:48] Oh, God.

[01:39:49] You see that fire over there?

[01:39:52] How many states are there?

[01:39:55] Hmm?

[01:39:56] How many states are there?

[01:39:58] In America?

[01:39:59] 50.

[01:40:00] Good job.

[01:40:01] Until we take over Canada and then there will be 60.

[01:40:03] It'll be 51.

[01:40:06] 51, yeah.

[01:40:07] I don't want to cut it up.

[01:40:08] Just make it all one.

[01:40:09] We're just going to make it one big state.

[01:40:12] We're going to call it the state of Canada.

[01:40:14] I'm tired.

[01:40:15] I'm tired of Alaska talking shit, saying it's the biggest.

[01:40:19] Canada's the biggest.

[01:40:22] They can keep their borders.

[01:40:24] I would actually be kind of a little, a little weary.

[01:40:30] Not, not scared, but like, I would be if that actually came to pass.

[01:40:34] Like, oh, damn.

[01:40:36] This is actually kind of totalitarian.

[01:40:38] And that would be bad for Trump's image.

[01:40:42] Yeah, the U.S. just starts steamrolling other countries and integrating their territories as states.

[01:40:47] And then literally, like, when they were talking about the New World Order and how the Democrats went on.

[01:40:51] And then he actually pushes it through.

[01:40:53] Imagine.

[01:40:53] We're like, oh, damn.

[01:40:55] Like, no.

[01:40:56] The mark of the beast.

[01:41:00] Beautiful dogs.

[01:41:02] Beautiful dogs.

[01:41:04] Labrador.

[01:41:05] Labrador, Canada.

[01:41:06] Beautiful dogs.

[01:41:08] Telling you.

[01:41:09] The mark of the beast.

[01:41:10] They're beautiful dogs.

[01:41:11] Now I got to wonder, is the Labrador Retriever from Labrador, Canada?

[01:41:14] Or is it from fucking Europe somewhere?

[01:41:19] Labrador Retriever.

[01:41:20] Love how that's the first thing that comes up on Google.

[01:41:22] Okay.

[01:41:22] Nope.

[01:41:23] They're actually.

[01:41:24] Oh, you got to be kidding me.

[01:41:29] Okay.

[01:41:29] The Labrador.

[01:41:30] So, yes.

[01:41:32] They're named.

[01:41:36] Wait.

[01:41:36] Hang on.

[01:41:38] Hang on.

[01:41:38] They're from the UK.

[01:41:39] Hang on.

[01:41:43] Labrador Retriever's from the fucking UK, but they're named after the area of the Canadian

[01:41:47] province.

[01:41:51] Of Newfoundland.

[01:41:53] Newfoundland.

[01:41:53] Newfoundland.

[01:41:54] Newfoundland.

[01:41:55] Those Newfies, eh?

[01:41:57] They're fucking crazy.

[01:41:59] Dude, I don't care what anyone says, dude.

[01:42:01] Canadian accents rule.

[01:42:04] I just find it so funny that the Canadian Hick accent is the exact opposite of the American

[01:42:09] Hick accent.

[01:42:10] Because you travel further north.

[01:42:14] Oh.

[01:42:15] Yeah, because like the Canadian Hick accent is when you get real far up north there, eh?

[01:42:20] You know, that kind of thing.

[01:42:24] Eh?

[01:42:24] Eh?

[01:42:26] And then there's like this weird middle ground in the US and Canada, like southern Canada

[01:42:31] and northern US, where everybody just fucking talks normal.

[01:42:34] Except for Wisconsin and Minnesota and North Dakota.

[01:42:39] Yeah, they have thick accents.

[01:42:42] They've got real thick accents, yeah.

[01:42:43] But I think that's the Scandinavian in there, yeah.

[01:42:47] That makes a lot of sense.

[01:42:49] Yeah, that's the heavy Scandinavians in there.

[01:42:52] A lot of Swedish.

[01:42:53] Swedish.

[01:42:56] You sound kind of Irish.

[01:42:58] A lot of Swedish and pickled herring.

[01:43:01] Yeah, that sounded a little Irish.

[01:43:04] Now, Harry.

[01:43:06] You're a wizard, Harry.

[01:43:07] Okay.

[01:43:08] It's still my favorite comment on Toontalk 2.0.

[01:43:12] I did a short about a movie that Daniel Radcliffe did called Imperium, where he plays an FBI agent

[01:43:18] that infiltrates a white supremacist group.

[01:43:23] You're a wizard, Harry.

[01:43:24] No, the comment.

[01:43:26] The comment literally says you're a grand wizard, Harry.

[01:43:32] Like, that shit is fun.

[01:43:34] That's good.

[01:43:35] Was that a commenter who made that?

[01:43:37] That was a commenter, yeah.

[01:43:38] And I'm like, oh, you win.

[01:43:41] That's amazing.

[01:43:43] You're a grand wizard, Harry.

[01:43:45] You're a grand wizard, Harry.

[01:43:49] Jesus, that's fucking funny.

[01:43:50] That's funny.

[01:43:51] I laughed so hard when I saw that.

[01:43:55] Oh, well, buddy.

[01:43:57] What?

[01:43:59] Well, buddy, we're rambling and yawning.

[01:44:02] We are rambling.

[01:44:03] But, hey, I don't know.

[01:44:05] This one was fun.

[01:44:06] It didn't really go as planned-ish, but hey, it's okay.

[01:44:12] The best ones never did.

[01:44:13] Exactly.

[01:44:15] Legends never die.
