00:00:15.759 --> 00:00:18.239
<v Speaker 1>Coming to you from the dining room table at East

2
00:00:18.320 --> 00:00:22.320
<v Speaker 1>Barbary Lane. Welcome to a new episode of Full Circle,

3
00:00:22.800 --> 00:00:26.239
<v Speaker 1>the podcast. A visit to our home where we squeeze

4
00:00:26.239 --> 00:00:30.239
<v Speaker 1>a few headlines through our decidedly queer lens and see

5
00:00:30.239 --> 00:00:33.759
<v Speaker 1>what happens. This episode is brought to you by Decanta

6
00:00:33.880 --> 00:00:39.640
<v Speaker 1>jug Wine and my disdain with sis male fragility. Notice

7
00:00:39.640 --> 00:00:42.960
<v Speaker 1>I didn't say sis hat because if they were actually straight,

8
00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:47.159
<v Speaker 1>we'd probably have far fewer issues and reserve ice for

9
00:00:47.320 --> 00:00:50.840
<v Speaker 1>beverages where it belongsop.

10
00:00:51.560 --> 00:00:53.600
<v Speaker 2>I am your host, Charles Tyson.

11
00:00:53.320 --> 00:00:56.920
<v Speaker 1>Junior, and I'm your host Martha Madrigal. Welcome to the

12
00:00:56.960 --> 00:00:58.119
<v Speaker 1>Full Circle Table.

13
00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:01.600
<v Speaker 2>You warn me before I recorded that it was going

14
00:01:01.640 --> 00:01:03.280
<v Speaker 2>to be a long intro, but I think that was

15
00:01:03.359 --> 00:01:05.319
<v Speaker 2>the exact right length.

16
00:01:05.359 --> 00:01:08.400
<v Speaker 1>Well, thank you the news man.

17
00:01:09.319 --> 00:01:10.400
<v Speaker 2>Wait, well, hold on.

18
00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:13.480
<v Speaker 1>Hi baby, how are you?

19
00:01:14.239 --> 00:01:15.519
<v Speaker 2>I'm good? How are you?

20
00:01:16.120 --> 00:01:16.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm good?

21
00:01:16.799 --> 00:01:20.400
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you know, except for the fascism, everything's great.

22
00:01:20.719 --> 00:01:23.439
<v Speaker 1>Hey, It's a wonderful time to be alive, except for

23
00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:28.239
<v Speaker 1>the fashion. Gothy keeps saying that because I bless America.

24
00:01:28.280 --> 00:01:31.599
<v Speaker 1>Except for the fashion, it keeps being true. It does

25
00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:34.879
<v Speaker 1>keep being true. I mean, you know, it's been quite

26
00:01:34.879 --> 00:01:37.840
<v Speaker 1>a week. It's actually only been a week, I know,

27
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:41.840
<v Speaker 1>and we're trying to get back on schedule. So much

28
00:01:41.959 --> 00:01:46.359
<v Speaker 1>to talk about, so much happening, and that is by design. People.

29
00:01:46.439 --> 00:01:52.239
<v Speaker 1>They want us exhausted and distracted. Yeah I don't. Well,

30
00:01:52.519 --> 00:01:54.840
<v Speaker 1>yes I'm distracted. I'm the distraction. Hi.

31
00:01:56.879 --> 00:01:59.640
<v Speaker 2>And you know what you said, fascist made me think

32
00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:05.519
<v Speaker 2>about James Baldwin famously said that black folks are used

33
00:02:05.519 --> 00:02:09.360
<v Speaker 2>to living in a fascist state because Jim Crow South,

34
00:02:09.639 --> 00:02:14.120
<v Speaker 2>because slavery. Like that, We're used to this shit. Everyone

35
00:02:14.199 --> 00:02:17.479
<v Speaker 2>else thinks of fascism as being something that happens across the.

36
00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:24.840
<v Speaker 1>Ocean, right. You know, I noticed, I have noticed I

37
00:02:24.919 --> 00:02:28.280
<v Speaker 1>have a different view than many of my skin folk

38
00:02:29.240 --> 00:02:32.280
<v Speaker 1>of all this, you know. And part of it is you.

39
00:02:32.879 --> 00:02:35.560
<v Speaker 1>Part of it is You're welcome, is slash, I'm sorry,

40
00:02:35.560 --> 00:02:37.639
<v Speaker 1>it's being trans you know. Part of it is just

41
00:02:37.879 --> 00:02:41.000
<v Speaker 1>the people that I talk to all the time, whose

42
00:02:41.240 --> 00:02:48.280
<v Speaker 1>views I at least here and understand, whether I you know,

43
00:02:49.360 --> 00:02:53.000
<v Speaker 1>we certainly all have very different stories. But for many

44
00:02:53.080 --> 00:02:56.560
<v Speaker 1>people this shit doesn't even feel new yet for real

45
00:02:56.599 --> 00:02:59.560
<v Speaker 1>though it feels new to the people who have never

46
00:03:00.479 --> 00:03:05.360
<v Speaker 1>been treated this way, if you know that does And

47
00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:12.919
<v Speaker 1>I keep hoping that you know, maybe it's maybe it's good,

48
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:18.360
<v Speaker 1>maybe it isn't, but but you know that this last

49
00:03:18.599 --> 00:03:21.280
<v Speaker 1>death was it, even the last one it's been a week,

50
00:03:22.639 --> 00:03:25.759
<v Speaker 1>was the fire hose moment, right, you know? I just

51
00:03:25.840 --> 00:03:30.919
<v Speaker 1>I keep hoping like enough Americans will be horrified that,

52
00:03:31.039 --> 00:03:32.599
<v Speaker 1>you know, changers.

53
00:03:32.120 --> 00:03:34.199
<v Speaker 2>Crossed because the conversation is happening.

54
00:03:34.599 --> 00:03:40.520
<v Speaker 1>It's happening more and more mega folks are relinquishing some

55
00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:45.159
<v Speaker 1>of their idolatry, you know, but the common section is

56
00:03:45.159 --> 00:03:48.639
<v Speaker 1>still full of bots or what have you making the argument.

57
00:03:48.719 --> 00:03:52.280
<v Speaker 1>And today it was all I could do to choke back.

58
00:03:52.360 --> 00:03:55.439
<v Speaker 1>Wait a minute. You are the party of small government.

59
00:03:56.400 --> 00:03:59.719
<v Speaker 1>You are the party who has talked about states rights

60
00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:05.039
<v Speaker 1>mmmm and federal government overreached, and now you have completely

61
00:04:06.039 --> 00:04:11.599
<v Speaker 1>followed the talking points of these chuckleheads, and you're you're

62
00:04:11.800 --> 00:04:15.560
<v Speaker 1>sitting here telling us about, you know how federal law

63
00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:20.560
<v Speaker 1>Trump's everything. What the fuck? Doude? Critical thinking? I know

64
00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:26.079
<v Speaker 1>is not their strong suit. But never, like never, don't

65
00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:27.920
<v Speaker 1>you stop at some point and say, I'm not even

66
00:04:27.959 --> 00:04:31.279
<v Speaker 1>being consistent with myself all of the values I was

67
00:04:31.360 --> 00:04:33.879
<v Speaker 1>raised with and if you were raised as a Republican, whatever,

68
00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:36.879
<v Speaker 1>but there were values there were certain things that made

69
00:04:36.920 --> 00:04:40.040
<v Speaker 1>sense within that party that are not a part of

70
00:04:40.079 --> 00:04:43.040
<v Speaker 1>the argument you're making right now. Correct. In fact, they

71
00:04:43.040 --> 00:04:45.639
<v Speaker 1>couldn't be further from it. And if this was a

72
00:04:45.680 --> 00:04:49.000
<v Speaker 1>Democrat in the White House and we had the roving

73
00:04:49.199 --> 00:04:53.240
<v Speaker 1>band of thugs, shit, shit, and you know what else

74
00:04:53.319 --> 00:04:55.720
<v Speaker 1>I find ironic, And then we really will get to

75
00:04:55.800 --> 00:05:00.160
<v Speaker 1>the show. These Second Amendment chuckleheads who have been, you know,

76
00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:04.920
<v Speaker 1>stockpiling weapons for when the government does exactly what they're

77
00:05:04.959 --> 00:05:07.959
<v Speaker 1>doing right now in the streets. You were going to

78
00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:12.439
<v Speaker 1>be prepared. You never allowed for the part where you

79
00:05:12.600 --> 00:05:17.720
<v Speaker 1>agree with them. We did. That's the difference.

80
00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:22.120
<v Speaker 2>Hi, Can I just make a comment? Sure for a second,

81
00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:26.920
<v Speaker 2>you with the fire in your eyes and the fierce

82
00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:32.439
<v Speaker 2>little leopard satin robe. It's kind of hot. I'm digging it.

83
00:05:32.439 --> 00:05:34.920
<v Speaker 1>It's actually a draft print, but thank you, Giraffe prens.

84
00:05:35.160 --> 00:05:37.399
<v Speaker 2>Oh god, I'm a money part.

85
00:05:37.639 --> 00:05:39.040
<v Speaker 1>I have multiple animal prints.

86
00:05:39.160 --> 00:05:39.480
<v Speaker 2>Thank you.

87
00:05:41.680 --> 00:05:46.959
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, well it is a Sunday morning, January eighteenth. Yes, yes,

88
00:05:47.000 --> 00:05:50.519
<v Speaker 1>I love this. It's my it's my hosphal, it's my

89
00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:56.439
<v Speaker 1>you know, I love it. Have a cute little black number. Anyway,

90
00:05:57.720 --> 00:06:01.279
<v Speaker 1>Just lounging, just lounging, it.

91
00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:03.800
<v Speaker 2>Was the flowing of it all, as you're like. And

92
00:06:03.879 --> 00:06:04.920
<v Speaker 2>another thing, I.

93
00:06:04.879 --> 00:06:11.279
<v Speaker 1>Talk with my hands. I love well things. Okay, yeah

94
00:06:10.839 --> 00:06:17.079
<v Speaker 1>it I am astounded, and I like, I do my best.

95
00:06:17.240 --> 00:06:20.240
<v Speaker 1>I stay out of the comment sections in that I

96
00:06:20.399 --> 00:06:23.519
<v Speaker 1>very rarely ever comment. But I'll just read a few

97
00:06:24.519 --> 00:06:27.240
<v Speaker 1>just to see what we're doing with take the temperature,

98
00:06:27.519 --> 00:06:31.879
<v Speaker 1>just to see because it doesn't take many to see

99
00:06:31.920 --> 00:06:38.879
<v Speaker 1>what the laughing bots do? You know? And watching these chucklehead,

100
00:06:38.920 --> 00:06:46.279
<v Speaker 1>these idiot men who you know moments ago, how we're

101
00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:51.360
<v Speaker 1>singing a different tune and now it's all okay, right.

102
00:06:51.959 --> 00:06:53.360
<v Speaker 2>Chucklehead is the new asshat?

103
00:06:54.079 --> 00:06:59.959
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? Well I I it's a lot. Yeah, it's a lot,

104
00:07:00.639 --> 00:07:03.199
<v Speaker 1>and you know some of it really, you know, irony

105
00:07:03.279 --> 00:07:08.839
<v Speaker 1>is dead. It's incredible. So you you, I know, how

106
00:07:08.879 --> 00:07:12.360
<v Speaker 1>to conversation? Are we going to get to that? We're

107
00:07:12.399 --> 00:07:13.800
<v Speaker 1>gonna lead with that? What do you want to do?

108
00:07:14.839 --> 00:07:19.319
<v Speaker 1>I know you recently had a very interesting conversation I did,

109
00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:20.920
<v Speaker 1>and that's relevant right now.

110
00:07:21.000 --> 00:07:27.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I am fortunate enough to be privy to occasional

111
00:07:27.680 --> 00:07:36.600
<v Speaker 2>conversations with several members of the black media, and in

112
00:07:36.680 --> 00:07:42.240
<v Speaker 2>this most recent conversation, we were talking about how, yes,

113
00:07:42.439 --> 00:07:48.000
<v Speaker 2>it's a good thing that we are having the conversations

114
00:07:48.519 --> 00:07:54.439
<v Speaker 2>that we have been having about the murder of Renee Good. Yes,

115
00:07:55.519 --> 00:08:01.839
<v Speaker 2>but this same energy was not given when Keith Porter

116
00:08:02.759 --> 00:08:06.040
<v Speaker 2>was murdered just two weeks before, right on on on

117
00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:11.800
<v Speaker 2>New Year's Eve, and so a week before right and

118
00:08:12.079 --> 00:08:15.079
<v Speaker 2>you know, I was having that same conversation with you

119
00:08:15.800 --> 00:08:21.600
<v Speaker 2>as we were editing last week's episode, because yeah, we

120
00:08:22.240 --> 00:08:22.920
<v Speaker 2>made no mention.

121
00:08:23.319 --> 00:08:26.720
<v Speaker 1>We didn't, right, it didn't get the press. It should happen, right,

122
00:08:27.480 --> 00:08:31.040
<v Speaker 1>You actually had a conversation with the family member. Yeah,

123
00:08:32.279 --> 00:08:35.000
<v Speaker 1>and and what was the takeaway? What was your takeaway?

124
00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:36.559
<v Speaker 1>I don't I don't even want to name the member,

125
00:08:36.639 --> 00:08:39.639
<v Speaker 1>It's just what was your takeaway from that conversation?

126
00:08:39.840 --> 00:08:43.559
<v Speaker 2>The takeover? I mean, it was business as usual. The

127
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:49.000
<v Speaker 2>story that went out is in direct conflict with the

128
00:08:49.000 --> 00:08:55.080
<v Speaker 2>eyewitness accounts of not just Keith Porter's family, but other

129
00:08:55.960 --> 00:09:01.759
<v Speaker 2>residents of the of the the neighborhood, like, for instance,

130
00:09:02.519 --> 00:09:08.279
<v Speaker 2>the off duty agent Ice agent was saying how Keith

131
00:09:08.360 --> 00:09:13.120
<v Speaker 2>had fired on him when his gun at him, when

132
00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:17.799
<v Speaker 2>actually what happened was Keith went outside to celebrate as

133
00:09:17.879 --> 00:09:18.519
<v Speaker 2>many others.

134
00:09:18.360 --> 00:09:20.240
<v Speaker 1>Had done before him, and shut the gun in the

135
00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:20.840
<v Speaker 1>air by.

136
00:09:20.759 --> 00:09:25.480
<v Speaker 2>Shooting his AR fifteen in the air, and that was it.

137
00:09:25.879 --> 00:09:29.399
<v Speaker 2>He was on his way back into the house when

138
00:09:29.879 --> 00:09:34.480
<v Speaker 2>his neighbor, the off duty ICE agent, after having gone

139
00:09:34.519 --> 00:09:37.360
<v Speaker 2>inside and put on putting on his tactical gear, came

140
00:09:37.399 --> 00:09:40.279
<v Speaker 2>outside and threatened him and shot him dead.

141
00:09:40.320 --> 00:09:43.120
<v Speaker 1>And we go put my suit on, right, because black

142
00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:46.440
<v Speaker 1>people aren't supposed to have automatic weapons, right. They didn't

143
00:09:46.480 --> 00:09:46.960
<v Speaker 1>mean that.

144
00:09:47.639 --> 00:09:51.200
<v Speaker 2>And the biggest the one point that stuck out to

145
00:09:51.240 --> 00:09:55.080
<v Speaker 2>me was the family member was saying how the Ice

146
00:09:55.159 --> 00:10:01.279
<v Speaker 2>agent reported that Keith fired three shots at him, and

147
00:10:01.320 --> 00:10:04.000
<v Speaker 2>that someone was saying how three shots were heard? And

148
00:10:04.039 --> 00:10:06.879
<v Speaker 2>she was like, it was an AR fifteen. You can't

149
00:10:06.879 --> 00:10:10.639
<v Speaker 2>fire three shots, right, which is an automatic weapon. Ye,

150
00:10:10.879 --> 00:10:13.120
<v Speaker 2>so even if you pulled the trigger once, it's going

151
00:10:13.159 --> 00:10:14.480
<v Speaker 2>to be more than three shots.

152
00:10:14.200 --> 00:10:16.559
<v Speaker 1>Which arguably should not have existed in the first place.

153
00:10:16.639 --> 00:10:20.799
<v Speaker 1>But you know what it did, right, it did. And

154
00:10:21.480 --> 00:10:24.639
<v Speaker 1>the people who you know who would defend the Ice

155
00:10:24.679 --> 00:10:27.879
<v Speaker 1>agent are the ones who defend you know, citizens being

156
00:10:27.879 --> 00:10:30.559
<v Speaker 1>able to be so armed. Right, But you only met

157
00:10:30.559 --> 00:10:34.559
<v Speaker 1>white people probably, right, Oh of course, yeah, along with

158
00:10:34.200 --> 00:10:38.279
<v Speaker 1>your friendly So it was a neighbor white, yes.

159
00:10:40.000 --> 00:10:45.840
<v Speaker 2>And it has recently come out that the agent is

160
00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:50.799
<v Speaker 2>facing allegations of abuse and hateful marks, according to a

161
00:10:50.840 --> 00:10:55.120
<v Speaker 2>new La Times report, and given the new allegations, the

162
00:10:55.120 --> 00:10:57.840
<v Speaker 2>family of Keith Porter and their attorney believe that this

163
00:10:57.879 --> 00:11:01.240
<v Speaker 2>could qualify as a hate crime or a race related well,

164
00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:03.759
<v Speaker 2>even though we knew that before, right.

165
00:11:03.600 --> 00:11:06.759
<v Speaker 1>Now, because there's a history here and the La Times

166
00:11:06.879 --> 00:11:08.639
<v Speaker 1>is reporting on it right good.

167
00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:13.080
<v Speaker 2>So I just wanted to make sure that in this

168
00:11:13.159 --> 00:11:18.240
<v Speaker 2>episode we made a point of mentioning Keith Porter Jr.

169
00:11:19.039 --> 00:11:26.000
<v Speaker 2>And the fact that his death was just as significant

170
00:11:27.200 --> 00:11:31.639
<v Speaker 2>and wasn't getting the talk and the press that it should.

171
00:11:31.639 --> 00:11:36.159
<v Speaker 1>Hap. I'm gonna say this because of the weapon. Because

172
00:11:36.159 --> 00:11:41.320
<v Speaker 1>of the weapon, it's not as clear cut as Renee Gold.

173
00:11:42.200 --> 00:11:44.440
<v Speaker 1>Do you know what I'm saying. It's not as clean

174
00:11:45.360 --> 00:11:50.240
<v Speaker 1>and served up to you in a palatable manner. And

175
00:11:50.320 --> 00:11:55.080
<v Speaker 1>I framed this that way in honor of Cludek Colvin died.

176
00:11:56.320 --> 00:11:57.000
<v Speaker 2>This is true.

177
00:11:57.159 --> 00:12:00.720
<v Speaker 1>Claudet Colvin refused to give up her seat on.

178
00:12:00.720 --> 00:12:05.480
<v Speaker 2>The bus a before before Rosa Parks, before Rosa Parks,

179
00:12:06.639 --> 00:12:07.559
<v Speaker 2>but she was not.

180
00:12:07.480 --> 00:12:09.720
<v Speaker 1>We won't talk about Polly Murray, who did it well

181
00:12:09.759 --> 00:12:13.279
<v Speaker 1>before both of them, but right, but klauttk Calvin did

182
00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:14.080
<v Speaker 1>it first.

183
00:12:13.879 --> 00:12:16.039
<v Speaker 2>But she was not as palatable for the movie.

184
00:12:16.120 --> 00:12:18.919
<v Speaker 1>She had darker skin, and she was pregnant out of

185
00:12:18.960 --> 00:12:21.879
<v Speaker 1>wedlock if I were a teenager and a teenager, so

186
00:12:22.080 --> 00:12:26.600
<v Speaker 1>she was not the face, right, And so they sent

187
00:12:26.679 --> 00:12:31.159
<v Speaker 1>out Rosa who was more palatable right for the movement.

188
00:12:31.960 --> 00:12:35.919
<v Speaker 1>And you know, we all do that when we're trying

189
00:12:35.960 --> 00:12:38.480
<v Speaker 1>to make a point. And I'm just you know, it's

190
00:12:38.519 --> 00:12:41.559
<v Speaker 1>what disgusts me about politics so often. It's like everybody

191
00:12:41.600 --> 00:12:44.159
<v Speaker 1>does the same bullshit to make their point.

192
00:12:44.799 --> 00:12:45.639
<v Speaker 2>It's that word.

193
00:12:45.440 --> 00:12:49.360
<v Speaker 1>Optics, optics. The optics were different, you know, but that

194
00:12:49.399 --> 00:12:54.480
<v Speaker 1>doesn't mean But I don't care if chuckleheads in Alabama

195
00:12:55.200 --> 00:12:59.200
<v Speaker 1>don't get dead because they shot an a fifteen, you

196
00:12:59.240 --> 00:13:03.159
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean, then this never should have happened,

197
00:13:03.159 --> 00:13:06.600
<v Speaker 1>should have right, you know. And if one of them says, well,

198
00:13:06.720 --> 00:13:10.919
<v Speaker 1>you're not supposed to have that kind of gun, who's

199
00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:14.480
<v Speaker 1>you one now? Right, come one now? And that's what

200
00:13:14.519 --> 00:13:19.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean, the hypocrisy. You know, these people have lost

201
00:13:19.399 --> 00:13:23.879
<v Speaker 1>their fucking minds, right, and and words mean nothing to them.

202
00:13:24.320 --> 00:13:27.720
<v Speaker 2>That's why I'm so glad the Black Panthers are public again.

203
00:13:28.440 --> 00:13:31.879
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I mean, my I was raised by two you know,

204
00:13:32.200 --> 00:13:37.679
<v Speaker 1>not college educated humans and my grandmother, who also you know,

205
00:13:38.240 --> 00:13:41.720
<v Speaker 1>who said right is right and wrong is nobody right?

206
00:13:42.320 --> 00:13:46.960
<v Speaker 1>And they meant that shit. But yeah, Claudae was not chosen.

207
00:13:47.759 --> 00:13:52.759
<v Speaker 1>But you know the point that she made again that

208
00:13:52.840 --> 00:13:55.799
<v Speaker 1>Poly made before both of them back in like I

209
00:13:55.840 --> 00:13:59.480
<v Speaker 1>think nineteen forty, Yeah, is what Rosa Parks was eventually

210
00:13:59.519 --> 00:13:59.919
<v Speaker 1>known for.

211
00:14:00.279 --> 00:14:03.399
<v Speaker 2>Right, No less powerful of a statement, but.

212
00:14:03.440 --> 00:14:07.919
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, right, But Claudette sat down first before Rosa, and

213
00:14:08.000 --> 00:14:10.159
<v Speaker 1>she died at eighty six. Yeah.

214
00:14:10.759 --> 00:14:14.639
<v Speaker 2>And it's crazy because I was not made aware of

215
00:14:14.679 --> 00:14:18.120
<v Speaker 2>her existence until an episode of Drunken.

216
00:14:17.840 --> 00:14:21.720
<v Speaker 1>Drunk History, That's what Kathy said, Drunk History, how about that?

217
00:14:22.080 --> 00:14:24.919
<v Speaker 1>But and if it was not for Nellie Fitzpatrick, I

218
00:14:24.919 --> 00:14:28.200
<v Speaker 1>would not know about Polly Mary same and then you know,

219
00:14:28.559 --> 00:14:33.120
<v Speaker 1>have then found the documentary and then found out, you know,

220
00:14:33.399 --> 00:14:38.399
<v Speaker 1>right that Paulli yeah, refused to get up in nineteen forty. Yeah.

221
00:14:39.320 --> 00:14:43.240
<v Speaker 2>And I put on our social media after Claudette Covin died,

222
00:14:43.919 --> 00:14:49.639
<v Speaker 2>we had a fifteen minute fave last season called Claudette

223
00:14:49.720 --> 00:14:53.120
<v Speaker 2>Oh Okay, And it was basically a house song about

224
00:14:53.159 --> 00:14:56.120
<v Speaker 2>Claudette Covin and the civil rights movement. I love that

225
00:14:56.639 --> 00:15:00.639
<v Speaker 2>and I especially loved that song because the choruses do

226
00:15:00.720 --> 00:15:06.200
<v Speaker 2>not fuck with colored people. So on the day she passed,

227
00:15:06.240 --> 00:15:08.759
<v Speaker 2>I made a point of posting that song on our socials.

228
00:15:08.960 --> 00:15:12.200
<v Speaker 1>Cool cool also Yeah, speaking of.

229
00:15:12.240 --> 00:15:17.399
<v Speaker 2>Music, John Forte died. He was found dead at fifty

230
00:15:18.200 --> 00:15:19.879
<v Speaker 2>in Massachusetts.

231
00:15:19.919 --> 00:15:23.919
<v Speaker 1>Young so young, my age, that is young. That is young. Shit.

232
00:15:25.480 --> 00:15:32.519
<v Speaker 2>John Forte is famously known for being part of the

233
00:15:32.559 --> 00:15:35.960
<v Speaker 2>Refugee Camp All Stars with White Clef Jean. He was

234
00:15:36.039 --> 00:15:39.519
<v Speaker 2>on the Carnival album. I always think of him in

235
00:15:39.600 --> 00:15:42.639
<v Speaker 2>the song We're Trying to Stay Alive. And he had

236
00:15:42.639 --> 00:15:47.360
<v Speaker 2>that interesting, like sneaky voice, and he could dance, and

237
00:15:47.399 --> 00:15:50.519
<v Speaker 2>he was a he had a really cool flow. And

238
00:15:50.639 --> 00:15:54.720
<v Speaker 2>it's funny because I was just randomly thinking about him

239
00:15:55.039 --> 00:15:57.440
<v Speaker 2>a couple of days before because I was listening to

240
00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:00.679
<v Speaker 2>we Trying to Stay Alive and I was like, I

241
00:16:00.720 --> 00:16:03.440
<v Speaker 2>wonder what he's up to because he was really talented.

242
00:16:04.279 --> 00:16:06.919
<v Speaker 2>And then two days later, so I hope I didn't

243
00:16:06.919 --> 00:16:07.240
<v Speaker 2>do it.

244
00:16:08.200 --> 00:16:11.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't think you did, but uh, I'm pretty sure

245
00:16:11.559 --> 00:16:12.080
<v Speaker 1>you did not.

246
00:16:12.919 --> 00:16:16.159
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, fifty and there's no signs of foul play

247
00:16:16.279 --> 00:16:18.879
<v Speaker 2>or readily apparent cause of death.

248
00:16:18.960 --> 00:16:19.840
<v Speaker 1>Right right.

249
00:16:20.600 --> 00:16:20.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

250
00:16:20.919 --> 00:16:23.639
<v Speaker 1>He was a native of New York City. Yeah, musical

251
00:16:23.759 --> 00:16:28.440
<v Speaker 1>prodigy who broke through in his early twenties. He was

252
00:16:28.480 --> 00:16:33.840
<v Speaker 1>a multi instrumentalist and rapper, and he released solo albums

253
00:16:33.879 --> 00:16:39.440
<v Speaker 1>as well, with contributors including Carly Simon, who, interestingly, her

254
00:16:39.480 --> 00:16:43.840
<v Speaker 1>son Ben Taylor was a good friend of his. Yeah, yeah,

255
00:16:43.960 --> 00:16:47.960
<v Speaker 1>so that was that connection there to music. John Forte

256
00:16:48.240 --> 00:16:51.879
<v Speaker 1>dead at fifty. Scott Adams I mentioned he was the

257
00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:58.120
<v Speaker 1>disgraced racist Bilbert creator. Yeah, I did set at sixty eight,

258
00:16:58.159 --> 00:16:58.759
<v Speaker 1>say what you want.

259
00:16:58.840 --> 00:17:01.720
<v Speaker 2>It's so crazy that I didn't find out until much

260
00:17:01.799 --> 00:17:04.319
<v Speaker 2>later that he was racist.

261
00:17:05.480 --> 00:17:08.119
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, the comment came out in what twenty twenty three

262
00:17:08.200 --> 00:17:10.799
<v Speaker 1>He had a little racist rant. Until then, Dilbert was clever.

263
00:17:11.640 --> 00:17:17.359
<v Speaker 2>It was clever, if not always funny, true, true, but

264
00:17:17.920 --> 00:17:18.359
<v Speaker 2>it did.

265
00:17:18.440 --> 00:17:22.359
<v Speaker 1>It was satirical about office life, and sometimes it was

266
00:17:22.400 --> 00:17:22.759
<v Speaker 1>dead on.

267
00:17:23.359 --> 00:17:25.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, so he did.

268
00:17:25.680 --> 00:17:27.799
<v Speaker 1>It was ubiquitous in the nineteen nineties.

269
00:17:27.839 --> 00:17:28.440
<v Speaker 2>It really was.

270
00:17:29.559 --> 00:17:33.359
<v Speaker 1>He was pulled from wide circulation after he degraded black

271
00:17:33.359 --> 00:17:38.519
<v Speaker 1>people in a twenty twenty three rant. He was pulled

272
00:17:38.519 --> 00:17:43.240
<v Speaker 1>from the Washington Post, et cetera. And I forget what

273
00:17:43.279 --> 00:17:49.279
<v Speaker 1>he even said, does it actually matter? No, No, I remember,

274
00:17:49.440 --> 00:17:52.960
<v Speaker 1>so he was commenting on a poll about the statement

275
00:17:53.039 --> 00:17:55.960
<v Speaker 1>it's okay to be white. He said. If nearly half

276
00:17:56.000 --> 00:17:58.880
<v Speaker 1>of all blacks are not okay with white people, that's

277
00:17:58.880 --> 00:18:01.799
<v Speaker 1>a hate group. I don't want to have anything to

278
00:18:01.880 --> 00:18:04.359
<v Speaker 1>do with them. And I would say, based on the

279
00:18:04.400 --> 00:18:07.759
<v Speaker 1>current way things are going, the best advice I would

280
00:18:07.799 --> 00:18:10.279
<v Speaker 1>give to white people is to get the hell away

281
00:18:10.279 --> 00:18:18.039
<v Speaker 1>from black people because there is no fixing this. Wow, Okay, okay,

282
00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:21.160
<v Speaker 1>holy missing the point, Batman. Yeah, and it was you know,

283
00:18:21.599 --> 00:18:23.720
<v Speaker 1>it was a poll. It was a rest musing poll

284
00:18:23.920 --> 00:18:26.240
<v Speaker 1>that found fifty three percent of Black Americans agreed with

285
00:18:26.279 --> 00:18:28.480
<v Speaker 1>the statement it's okay to be white, while twenty six

286
00:18:28.519 --> 00:18:32.440
<v Speaker 1>disagreed and twenty one percent specified they weren't sure. You

287
00:18:32.480 --> 00:18:36.680
<v Speaker 1>know right, you know what, say what you will. That's

288
00:18:36.680 --> 00:18:38.440
<v Speaker 1>probably true somewhere. Yeah.

289
00:18:38.480 --> 00:18:42.319
<v Speaker 2>The comparison I always people, The comparison I always make

290
00:18:42.480 --> 00:18:47.880
<v Speaker 2>is if everyone in your family went to everyone in

291
00:18:47.920 --> 00:18:52.319
<v Speaker 2>my family and punched us in the face every day

292
00:18:52.799 --> 00:18:55.000
<v Speaker 2>for let's say four hundred.

293
00:18:54.799 --> 00:18:58.519
<v Speaker 1>Years, just to pull a number out of the air.

294
00:18:58.680 --> 00:19:03.839
<v Speaker 2>Yes, and so everyone in my family publicly said, we

295
00:19:03.880 --> 00:19:07.039
<v Speaker 2>don't fuck with everybody in your family, fuck each and

296
00:19:07.079 --> 00:19:11.799
<v Speaker 2>every one of you, right, But you blame us for

297
00:19:11.920 --> 00:19:16.640
<v Speaker 2>having that sentiment, not them. For doing the punching. That's

298
00:19:16.720 --> 00:19:17.920
<v Speaker 2>kind of what that argument is.

299
00:19:20.559 --> 00:19:26.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he tried to defend himself and did not do so. Well. No, hey,

300
00:19:26.640 --> 00:19:29.200
<v Speaker 1>you know what it is? What it is.

301
00:19:30.599 --> 00:19:34.160
<v Speaker 2>That leads me to believe that he had an interaction

302
00:19:34.319 --> 00:19:36.720
<v Speaker 2>with a couple of black folks that didn't go the

303
00:19:36.759 --> 00:19:38.599
<v Speaker 2>way he thought it would and.

304
00:19:38.480 --> 00:19:43.240
<v Speaker 1>So therefore something something anyway he did, or he was

305
00:19:43.240 --> 00:19:46.640
<v Speaker 1>hanging out with Joe Rogan or somebody. Well, no, I'm sorry,

306
00:19:46.680 --> 00:19:50.519
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Racist too, Rogan. Yeah, I mean he's

307
00:19:50.559 --> 00:19:52.960
<v Speaker 1>a lot of things. I don't know about that part.

308
00:19:53.160 --> 00:19:56.359
<v Speaker 2>Well, I'll say this, he's a let me not even

309
00:19:56.400 --> 00:19:59.359
<v Speaker 2>stop myself from from being nice. Yes, Joe Rogan is

310
00:19:59.400 --> 00:20:01.640
<v Speaker 2>a racist because someone did a super cut of all

311
00:20:01.680 --> 00:20:04.160
<v Speaker 2>the times that he said on his show and it

312
00:20:04.200 --> 00:20:08.160
<v Speaker 2>was like a two minute video that plus loves to

313
00:20:08.200 --> 00:20:11.720
<v Speaker 2>have people like Steven Miller on his show and like

314
00:20:11.799 --> 00:20:16.160
<v Speaker 2>all these anti trans people. So yeah, fuck Joe Rogan.

315
00:20:16.160 --> 00:20:17.240
<v Speaker 2>I don't even know why I was going to give

316
00:20:17.279 --> 00:20:18.079
<v Speaker 2>him a moment of grace.

317
00:20:18.480 --> 00:20:20.279
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, But the fact that you were willing

318
00:20:20.319 --> 00:20:24.880
<v Speaker 1>to makes you a better person. I agree. But fuck him,

319
00:20:24.960 --> 00:20:34.839
<v Speaker 1>yeah exactly, but fuck him. No, thank you, But I

320
00:20:34.880 --> 00:20:38.200
<v Speaker 1>mean neither way. But yeah, as long as I don't

321
00:20:38.240 --> 00:20:39.960
<v Speaker 1>have to do it, I can't imagine that being pla.

322
00:20:40.519 --> 00:20:44.920
<v Speaker 2>No, I believe the phrase is painting the children.

323
00:20:46.039 --> 00:20:46.839
<v Speaker 1>Dip it in tar.

324
00:20:51.359 --> 00:20:51.720
<v Speaker 2>Wow.

325
00:20:51.799 --> 00:20:54.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't imagine there's a lot of fiber in his diets.

326
00:20:54.039 --> 00:20:58.720
<v Speaker 1>That's all I We.

327
00:20:58.720 --> 00:21:00.720
<v Speaker 2>Are hitting the ground running the week show.

328
00:21:01.319 --> 00:21:14.079
<v Speaker 1>We're not okay, there's good news, Yes there is, and

329
00:21:14.119 --> 00:21:20.400
<v Speaker 1>we should probably go right there, gohead, you want to start, sure.

330
00:21:21.279 --> 00:21:27.480
<v Speaker 2>So, George Floyd's aunt called out Trump after Renee Goods killing.

331
00:21:28.440 --> 00:21:30.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, good Yeah.

332
00:21:31.039 --> 00:21:36.599
<v Speaker 2>According to Angela Harrelson, her death, Renee Goods death draws

333
00:21:36.720 --> 00:21:40.960
<v Speaker 2>parallels to George Floyd's murder and the lasting trauma it

334
00:21:41.039 --> 00:21:44.079
<v Speaker 2>left in the community. I mean, I can't be the

335
00:21:44.119 --> 00:21:47.200
<v Speaker 2>only one that made that comparison in my head. She said,

336
00:21:47.240 --> 00:21:50.160
<v Speaker 2>Donald Trump is not God. He thinks he is, but

337
00:21:50.240 --> 00:21:50.799
<v Speaker 2>he is not.

338
00:21:51.799 --> 00:21:54.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Minneapolis once again.

339
00:21:54.240 --> 00:21:58.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that Minneapolis is like this hotbed of of like

340
00:21:59.119 --> 00:22:05.759
<v Speaker 2>strife and and police violence. And it's someone said, who

341
00:22:05.839 --> 00:22:09.480
<v Speaker 2>would have thought that the revolution would start in Minneapolis,

342
00:22:09.519 --> 00:22:10.839
<v Speaker 2>you know, besides Prince.

343
00:22:11.000 --> 00:22:15.759
<v Speaker 1>Besides Prince. She spoke out about the killing and the

344
00:22:15.799 --> 00:22:19.839
<v Speaker 1>similarities she sees between Goods death and Floyd's murder in

345
00:22:19.920 --> 00:22:24.759
<v Speaker 1>May of twenty twenty yeah by a former Minneapolis police officer.

346
00:22:24.880 --> 00:22:29.880
<v Speaker 1>While both murders were high profile and sparked nationwide protests,

347
00:22:30.640 --> 00:22:35.319
<v Speaker 1>they also received different reactions from the public. Wonder why

348
00:22:35.759 --> 00:22:38.599
<v Speaker 1>Goods family has also retained the same law firm that

349
00:22:38.720 --> 00:22:42.799
<v Speaker 1>represented Floyd's family to investigate her shooting and press for

350
00:22:42.920 --> 00:22:46.640
<v Speaker 1>answers in the case. According to The Grio, both Trump

351
00:22:46.680 --> 00:22:50.880
<v Speaker 1>and his administration considered goods killing justified. Of course they did,

352
00:22:50.960 --> 00:22:58.160
<v Speaker 1>uh huh, accusing her of interfering with ICE operations, Have

353
00:22:58.240 --> 00:23:02.599
<v Speaker 1>Security Secretary Christy no Waste of Flesh called her actions

354
00:23:02.640 --> 00:23:05.359
<v Speaker 1>a domestic terrorism. This is what I mean when I

355
00:23:05.359 --> 00:23:12.319
<v Speaker 1>say words mean nothing, right, and said she weaponized her vehicle. Yeah, this,

356
00:23:12.759 --> 00:23:14.680
<v Speaker 1>you know there's video people.

357
00:23:14.920 --> 00:23:18.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's the thing. They keep doing this Like Google

358
00:23:18.160 --> 00:23:20.000
<v Speaker 2>is not a thing, Like YouTube is not a thing.

359
00:23:20.160 --> 00:23:22.799
<v Speaker 2>Like we don't all have cameras in our pockets, bitch,

360
00:23:22.839 --> 00:23:23.480
<v Speaker 2>we can see you.

361
00:23:24.680 --> 00:23:27.240
<v Speaker 1>They think they have. She said, they're out of control.

362
00:23:27.519 --> 00:23:30.160
<v Speaker 1>She's right, and they feel like they don't have to

363
00:23:30.200 --> 00:23:33.079
<v Speaker 1>answer to nobody but Donald Trump. That is that is

364
00:23:33.119 --> 00:23:37.079
<v Speaker 1>how they act. Because January sixth, and then he pardoned

365
00:23:37.119 --> 00:23:40.519
<v Speaker 1>them all and then yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep, yep.

366
00:23:40.839 --> 00:23:43.759
<v Speaker 2>She said, they're killing black, brown, and even white people.

367
00:23:43.839 --> 00:23:45.880
<v Speaker 2>How about it, some of these people could end up

368
00:23:45.880 --> 00:23:48.359
<v Speaker 2>being your neighbors, the people you work with, the people.

369
00:23:48.400 --> 00:23:50.880
<v Speaker 2>You know, All of this stuff trickles down when you're

370
00:23:50.880 --> 00:23:53.359
<v Speaker 2>dealing with absolute destruction and corruption.

371
00:23:53.440 --> 00:23:57.440
<v Speaker 1>Yea word, corruption is the most important word here, because

372
00:23:57.480 --> 00:23:59.839
<v Speaker 1>they are corrupt as the day is long, and we

373
00:24:00.160 --> 00:24:04.799
<v Speaker 1>have nothing but incompetence running our government right now for nothing,

374
00:24:04.839 --> 00:24:08.839
<v Speaker 1>but because no one who's competent will work for them exactly.

375
00:24:09.160 --> 00:24:11.920
<v Speaker 2>She also said, I love this. She said, if you

376
00:24:12.000 --> 00:24:15.119
<v Speaker 2>stand for humanity, you know what to do. The tide

377
00:24:15.160 --> 00:24:16.880
<v Speaker 2>is going to turn and it's going to be rough

378
00:24:16.920 --> 00:24:19.200
<v Speaker 2>for a while, but we will get there. I know

379
00:24:19.240 --> 00:24:22.160
<v Speaker 2>the pain. You guys know the pain. We all know

380
00:24:22.200 --> 00:24:24.960
<v Speaker 2>the pain. We know this pain together. But we will

381
00:24:24.960 --> 00:24:26.039
<v Speaker 2>see the light again.

382
00:24:26.799 --> 00:24:31.079
<v Speaker 1>We will. And like I said, Rome wasn't obliterated from

383
00:24:31.160 --> 00:24:34.920
<v Speaker 1>the map. They just fell right. They ain't the seed

384
00:24:34.960 --> 00:24:38.839
<v Speaker 1>of much. I mean, you know the tea dance that

385
00:24:38.960 --> 00:24:43.759
<v Speaker 1>is the Vatican, but well you know, yeah, this is

386
00:24:45.920 --> 00:24:50.200
<v Speaker 1>what is happening is hideous, period. I'm glad. She spoke up. Yeah,

387
00:24:50.200 --> 00:24:54.759
<v Speaker 1>they're all related. Of course they're related. This abuse of

388
00:24:54.960 --> 00:25:02.039
<v Speaker 1>power is a problem, and these jackals are not law

389
00:25:02.119 --> 00:25:04.799
<v Speaker 1>enforcement per se. They're acting like they're the cops, but

390
00:25:04.839 --> 00:25:06.200
<v Speaker 1>they're not. They're not cops.

391
00:25:06.519 --> 00:25:08.400
<v Speaker 2>No, they're armored bullies. Right.

392
00:25:08.440 --> 00:25:10.920
<v Speaker 1>And the only thing they can deal with his federal law,

393
00:25:11.480 --> 00:25:19.160
<v Speaker 1>which yeah, Trump is a punishing Minnesota overall. Yeah, he is.

394
00:25:19.880 --> 00:25:23.799
<v Speaker 2>Talking about bringing the military and to stop the protests.

395
00:25:23.960 --> 00:25:27.599
<v Speaker 1>Right, this is all so transparent, and yet he still

396
00:25:27.640 --> 00:25:35.279
<v Speaker 1>has those who will defend this. And you know you're

397
00:25:35.279 --> 00:25:37.319
<v Speaker 1>the one who wants to explain it to your grandchildren

398
00:25:37.359 --> 00:25:40.039
<v Speaker 1>if we all still have a I don't know a

399
00:25:40.240 --> 00:25:43.960
<v Speaker 1>planet by the time this jackass is done. Christy Noom,

400
00:25:44.160 --> 00:25:46.400
<v Speaker 1>there is a push for her impeachment, as there will

401
00:25:46.480 --> 00:25:51.000
<v Speaker 1>should be. Word Democrats seek to remove her over the

402
00:25:51.000 --> 00:25:56.240
<v Speaker 1>Ice allegations. Yeah, period, Yeah, she should be removed truly.

403
00:25:56.000 --> 00:25:58.519
<v Speaker 2>She's not doing anything to make our quote homeland.

404
00:25:58.759 --> 00:26:01.759
<v Speaker 1>Yes, she has no absolutely no qualification to be where

405
00:26:01.799 --> 00:26:06.279
<v Speaker 1>she is. She says the most ridiculous things and she

406
00:26:06.319 --> 00:26:08.640
<v Speaker 1>has no problem saying them like she doesn't even I

407
00:26:08.680 --> 00:26:11.240
<v Speaker 1>don't know hesitate, let alone choke on her words, as

408
00:26:11.240 --> 00:26:15.279
<v Speaker 1>she should, right, Robin Kelly introduced three articles of impeachment

409
00:26:15.319 --> 00:26:19.519
<v Speaker 1>against her last Wednesday. The first accused her of obstruction

410
00:26:19.799 --> 00:26:24.960
<v Speaker 1>of denying Congress members access to ICE facilities. CBS News

411
00:26:25.000 --> 00:26:30.519
<v Speaker 1>reported them. The second article leg she violated public trust

412
00:26:30.680 --> 00:26:34.559
<v Speaker 1>by sending ICE agents to arrest people without warrants and

413
00:26:34.599 --> 00:26:41.000
<v Speaker 1>directing tear gas against citizens. And the third accuses Gnome

414
00:26:41.160 --> 00:26:45.039
<v Speaker 1>of abusing her power by bypassing the contract process to

415
00:26:45.079 --> 00:26:48.960
<v Speaker 1>fund a two hundred million dollar ad campaign to recruit

416
00:26:49.039 --> 00:26:53.480
<v Speaker 1>ICE agents and giving the contract to a company run

417
00:26:53.519 --> 00:26:58.759
<v Speaker 1>by a friend of hers. No kidding, right, no kidding

418
00:27:00.079 --> 00:27:03.519
<v Speaker 1>brought her reign of terror to the Chicago Land Area, LA,

419
00:27:03.720 --> 00:27:08.440
<v Speaker 1>New Orleans, Charlotte, Durham, and communities east north to south

420
00:27:08.599 --> 00:27:13.079
<v Speaker 1>to east to west. That's everywhere. That would be everywhere.

421
00:27:14.319 --> 00:27:17.000
<v Speaker 1>She needs to be held accountable for her actions. I agree,

422
00:27:17.920 --> 00:27:20.920
<v Speaker 1>I agree. You know, in my best dreams, I see

423
00:27:20.960 --> 00:27:22.960
<v Speaker 1>them all being held accountable for this.

424
00:27:23.119 --> 00:27:24.880
<v Speaker 2>Right, make examples of all.

425
00:27:24.680 --> 00:27:31.839
<v Speaker 1>Illegal, unconstitutional, unconscionable behavior. Yeah, m hm, yep, get them

426
00:27:31.839 --> 00:27:37.079
<v Speaker 1>out anyway. That was I guess that's a little bright spot, right.

427
00:27:37.720 --> 00:27:41.759
<v Speaker 1>I like to death and I loved the headline a

428
00:27:42.079 --> 00:27:47.599
<v Speaker 1>New Yugov poll asked Americans whether they thought that certain

429
00:27:47.720 --> 00:27:53.160
<v Speaker 1>issues were a problem for either political party. Forty four

430
00:27:53.279 --> 00:27:59.240
<v Speaker 1>percent said that transphobia was a major problem among Republicans,

431
00:27:59.519 --> 00:28:02.039
<v Speaker 1>and twenty four percent said they thought it was a

432
00:28:02.079 --> 00:28:06.240
<v Speaker 1>minor problem. Only thirty two percent of respondents said it

433
00:28:06.400 --> 00:28:10.799
<v Speaker 1>wasn't a problem and they're the transphipts. Transphobia was the

434
00:28:10.839 --> 00:28:15.559
<v Speaker 1>second most likely issue to be labeled a problem by respondents,

435
00:28:16.000 --> 00:28:24.039
<v Speaker 1>after hostility toward immigrants, tolerance of political violence, conspiracy thinking,

436
00:28:24.240 --> 00:28:32.759
<v Speaker 1>white supremacy, homophobia, and fascism followed closely behind. The headline

437
00:28:33.759 --> 00:28:36.839
<v Speaker 1>was Americans think Republicans are too obsessed with trans people?

438
00:28:37.079 --> 00:28:42.480
<v Speaker 1>For really perfect headline, Yeah they are. This is a

439
00:28:42.720 --> 00:28:46.480
<v Speaker 1>they need to keep pointing to something to distract and

440
00:28:46.519 --> 00:28:49.480
<v Speaker 1>that's why they keep you know, they're putting the pedal

441
00:28:49.519 --> 00:28:52.319
<v Speaker 1>to the metal. And then they were in the Supreme Court,

442
00:28:52.480 --> 00:28:55.559
<v Speaker 1>you know this this week talking about us playing sports.

443
00:28:55.640 --> 00:28:58.480
<v Speaker 1>If I could, how many of us don't even play

444
00:28:58.480 --> 00:29:01.799
<v Speaker 1>sports in the places where they're making rules. But whatever, right.

445
00:29:02.200 --> 00:29:05.279
<v Speaker 1>It was eleven hundred and seven US adult citizens interviewed

446
00:29:05.279 --> 00:29:07.759
<v Speaker 1>from December thirtieth to January first, so it was a

447
00:29:07.799 --> 00:29:10.119
<v Speaker 1>quick pull. They were also asked if they had an

448
00:29:10.119 --> 00:29:13.960
<v Speaker 1>overall favorable opinion of the Democratic and Republican parties. Their

449
00:29:14.039 --> 00:29:17.759
<v Speaker 1>views were fairly balanced, nine percent for a bull view

450
00:29:17.839 --> 00:29:22.960
<v Speaker 1>of Democrats, same percentage. Somehow right, this is you know,

451
00:29:23.000 --> 00:29:25.279
<v Speaker 1>you want to know people are stupid? Here you go, Well,

452
00:29:25.759 --> 00:29:30.319
<v Speaker 1>I had a favorite with Republicans. But this is my point.

453
00:29:30.720 --> 00:29:34.039
<v Speaker 1>Even their people are saying, what the fuck is your problem? Right?

454
00:29:34.079 --> 00:29:37.880
<v Speaker 1>Stop it already? I know trans people are not raising

455
00:29:37.880 --> 00:29:41.359
<v Speaker 1>grocery prices. We have nothing to do with Greenland or

456
00:29:41.440 --> 00:29:44.359
<v Speaker 1>Venezuela or Argentina or wherever the fuck he is these days, Like,

457
00:29:44.400 --> 00:29:46.359
<v Speaker 1>we have nothing to do with any of that, never did.

458
00:29:46.920 --> 00:29:49.359
<v Speaker 1>We are not your problem, right, And that's the thing.

459
00:29:49.599 --> 00:29:50.640
<v Speaker 1>They are the pedophiles.

460
00:29:50.720 --> 00:29:52.720
<v Speaker 2>We need to swap out ice and bring in the

461
00:29:52.759 --> 00:29:58.279
<v Speaker 2>irony police, because, oh my god, everyone talks about ideologies

462
00:29:58.319 --> 00:30:01.720
<v Speaker 2>being quote shoved down our throat rootes, where it's actually

463
00:30:01.759 --> 00:30:04.559
<v Speaker 2>transphobia that's being shoved down our roots. No one's even

464
00:30:04.599 --> 00:30:08.000
<v Speaker 2>thinking about trans people. And then two o'clock on a Wednesday,

465
00:30:08.039 --> 00:30:10.960
<v Speaker 2>there's something about bathrooms and sports.

466
00:30:11.279 --> 00:30:15.799
<v Speaker 1>Right, And here's the thing. The people who continue to

467
00:30:15.960 --> 00:30:22.480
<v Speaker 1>push this narrative are predators. They are predators, whether they're

468
00:30:22.640 --> 00:30:26.680
<v Speaker 1>fucking children, trying to fuck children, jerking off to pictures

469
00:30:26.720 --> 00:30:31.160
<v Speaker 1>of children being fucked, or otherwise doing shit they shouldn't

470
00:30:31.200 --> 00:30:34.839
<v Speaker 1>be doing, right. They are the predators. Our president right

471
00:30:34.880 --> 00:30:38.839
<v Speaker 1>now is a predator, and this is predator behavior, all

472
00:30:38.880 --> 00:30:45.160
<v Speaker 1>of it. No, look over there, look over there. Yeah,

473
00:30:45.839 --> 00:30:51.400
<v Speaker 1>because I'm somehow causing someone a problem. I mean, you know,

474
00:30:51.480 --> 00:30:54.519
<v Speaker 1>unless you're upset that my tree is still up, I'm

475
00:30:54.559 --> 00:30:56.599
<v Speaker 1>still looking at my Christmas tree because I need a

476
00:30:56.640 --> 00:31:00.960
<v Speaker 1>little joy. Yeah, what the fuck? What the fun? But

477
00:31:01.039 --> 00:31:04.359
<v Speaker 1>this is what this is what predators do. And you know,

478
00:31:04.440 --> 00:31:07.640
<v Speaker 1>if we listed every fucking time there's a Republican in

479
00:31:07.680 --> 00:31:11.839
<v Speaker 1>the paper being hauled off to jail, ding ding ding Yeah,

480
00:31:12.319 --> 00:31:16.880
<v Speaker 1>for more charges of pedophilia. M yeah, you know who

481
00:31:16.880 --> 00:31:20.759
<v Speaker 1>they're not in jail with drag queens, right, trans people

482
00:31:21.039 --> 00:31:25.519
<v Speaker 1>ding ding h yeah, queers in general. Right, Yeah, we're

483
00:31:25.559 --> 00:31:28.720
<v Speaker 1>not there. Nope, y'all are there. Y'all are there, And

484
00:31:29.160 --> 00:31:35.480
<v Speaker 1>this is what predators do. Yep, good god. Anyway, Yeah,

485
00:31:35.559 --> 00:31:38.200
<v Speaker 1>so we don't need surveys to know this, but you know,

486
00:31:38.319 --> 00:31:40.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad they're doing them because they never did. They

487
00:31:40.720 --> 00:31:44.039
<v Speaker 1>never bothered before. Thank you for bothering now. Yeah, they

488
00:31:44.079 --> 00:31:47.519
<v Speaker 1>are too obsessed with us, you know why they want

489
00:31:47.519 --> 00:31:49.200
<v Speaker 1>to fuck us? And many of them do.

490
00:31:50.119 --> 00:31:50.799
<v Speaker 3>Mmmmmmm.

491
00:31:52.599 --> 00:31:56.480
<v Speaker 1>You look up transport and you see where it's most popular,

492
00:31:57.480 --> 00:32:02.240
<v Speaker 1>and then you compare that to political affiliation. It's like

493
00:32:02.559 --> 00:32:03.799
<v Speaker 1>a direct overlay.

494
00:32:04.319 --> 00:32:04.839
<v Speaker 2>It's true.

495
00:32:05.119 --> 00:32:08.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we know, we know.

496
00:32:09.000 --> 00:32:09.440
<v Speaker 2>Mm hmm.

497
00:32:09.559 --> 00:32:10.519
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we're well aware.

498
00:32:10.640 --> 00:32:13.759
<v Speaker 2>The then diagram is a perfect fucking circle. Yes, it

499
00:32:13.920 --> 00:32:16.480
<v Speaker 2>is pun sort of intended.

500
00:32:17.319 --> 00:32:22.119
<v Speaker 1>So this just made me smile. Activist chalk messages outside

501
00:32:22.160 --> 00:32:25.640
<v Speaker 1>Harry Potter play reminding fans they're fueling transphobia.

502
00:32:25.759 --> 00:32:30.960
<v Speaker 2>Yep. Yeah, it's like let the Little Wizard Boy story go.

503
00:32:31.480 --> 00:32:37.200
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmmm. Spread love, not hate, Boycott Harry Potter. Period translates.

504
00:32:37.240 --> 00:32:41.799
<v Speaker 1>Activists protested a production of Harry Potter and the Cursed

505
00:32:42.079 --> 00:32:46.200
<v Speaker 1>Child at London's Palace Theater last Sunday, writing a series

506
00:32:46.200 --> 00:32:50.720
<v Speaker 1>of chalk messages urging fans to avoid saying the show. Yeah.

507
00:32:50.880 --> 00:32:53.680
<v Speaker 2>Photos of the sidewalk near the theater show messages like

508
00:32:53.759 --> 00:32:57.319
<v Speaker 2>Harry Potter tattoos have a higher regret rate than transition.

509
00:32:57.519 --> 00:32:59.000
<v Speaker 1>That's right, Spread love, not.

510
00:32:59.039 --> 00:33:03.680
<v Speaker 2>Hate, boycott Harry Potter. And it's true. It's like, I

511
00:33:03.720 --> 00:33:10.000
<v Speaker 2>don't understand this need to hold on to this, Like,

512
00:33:10.880 --> 00:33:16.160
<v Speaker 2>I can't see someone dropping two hundred, two hundred and

513
00:33:16.160 --> 00:33:20.160
<v Speaker 2>fifty three hundred pounds on a theater ticket just to

514
00:33:20.400 --> 00:33:23.000
<v Speaker 2>prove a point that they like JK. Rowling. I think

515
00:33:23.039 --> 00:33:25.799
<v Speaker 2>it's like laziness of thought and not wanting to let

516
00:33:25.839 --> 00:33:28.759
<v Speaker 2>go of things that you like. But it's like, after

517
00:33:28.839 --> 00:33:32.880
<v Speaker 2>a certain point, who are you really? You know what

518
00:33:32.960 --> 00:33:35.880
<v Speaker 2>I mean? Like I was a hardcore Harry Potter fan.

519
00:33:36.240 --> 00:33:39.640
<v Speaker 2>I went on Potter more, I got myself sorted. I

520
00:33:39.759 --> 00:33:43.000
<v Speaker 2>was a proud Slytherin for the longest time. I had

521
00:33:43.039 --> 00:33:49.359
<v Speaker 2>my my famous uh whipping scarf was my Slytherin house scarf.

522
00:33:49.559 --> 00:33:52.200
<v Speaker 2>But you know what happened. I put it all away

523
00:33:52.359 --> 00:33:55.359
<v Speaker 2>because I didn't want to be associated with someone who

524
00:33:55.440 --> 00:34:00.359
<v Speaker 2>is sympathetic to her terfism. Period. You just stop.

525
00:34:00.640 --> 00:34:05.279
<v Speaker 1>She's funneling profits at this point two items directly sponsoring

526
00:34:05.519 --> 00:34:08.920
<v Speaker 1>actions against trans rights and trans people exactly. She's not

527
00:34:08.960 --> 00:34:11.679
<v Speaker 1>even hiding it, right, This is her you know, this

528
00:34:11.760 --> 00:34:12.280
<v Speaker 1>is her thing.

529
00:34:12.599 --> 00:34:15.320
<v Speaker 2>Right, So the money that you're spending on that theater

530
00:34:15.440 --> 00:34:20.039
<v Speaker 2>ticket is directly funding basically trans kids killing themselves. Is

531
00:34:20.039 --> 00:34:20.559
<v Speaker 2>that what you want?

532
00:34:20.639 --> 00:34:24.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that is what she wants. What she wants clearly

533
00:34:24.039 --> 00:34:24.679
<v Speaker 1>what she wants.

534
00:34:24.679 --> 00:34:26.400
<v Speaker 2>That's what she wants. I'm talking about to the people

535
00:34:26.400 --> 00:34:28.039
<v Speaker 2>that are going to see the shows, you don't you want?

536
00:34:28.159 --> 00:34:30.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what they think about, you know, I'm

537
00:34:30.880 --> 00:34:35.679
<v Speaker 1>reminded of how many times, you know, different people said

538
00:34:35.719 --> 00:34:38.440
<v Speaker 1>to me, well, and culture doesn't believe that shit. Well,

539
00:34:38.559 --> 00:34:41.000
<v Speaker 1>she's making money with it, and she went on television

540
00:34:41.000 --> 00:34:42.440
<v Speaker 1>for how long I'm going I haven't heard her name

541
00:34:42.480 --> 00:34:45.039
<v Speaker 1>in a while, but I don't want to hear those

542
00:34:45.119 --> 00:34:46.159
<v Speaker 1>arguments anymore.

543
00:34:46.199 --> 00:34:47.119
<v Speaker 2>And that's not better.

544
00:34:47.280 --> 00:34:50.159
<v Speaker 1>This is who No, it's not better exactly. Well, it's

545
00:34:50.199 --> 00:34:53.280
<v Speaker 1>all for theater. No, we're well past all that because

546
00:34:53.320 --> 00:34:57.199
<v Speaker 1>too many, too many people take all this very seriously, right,

547
00:34:57.599 --> 00:35:01.000
<v Speaker 1>and people are dying, and people are being hurt, Yeah,

548
00:35:01.360 --> 00:35:06.920
<v Speaker 1>desperately hurt. And you know, you're showing us where you stand,

549
00:35:07.239 --> 00:35:11.679
<v Speaker 1>right if you don't know anything about it, it shows

550
00:35:11.679 --> 00:35:13.400
<v Speaker 1>me where you stand. I mean, all I gotta do

551
00:35:13.519 --> 00:35:15.840
<v Speaker 1>should be discouraged is go look at the line at

552
00:35:15.840 --> 00:35:16.719
<v Speaker 1>the chick filt.

553
00:35:17.960 --> 00:35:19.119
<v Speaker 2>Because I was thinking the same thing.

554
00:35:19.199 --> 00:35:23.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, I know most of y'all don't care, but yeah,

555
00:35:24.039 --> 00:35:27.599
<v Speaker 1>but but but that is what she is doing with

556
00:35:27.719 --> 00:35:29.920
<v Speaker 1>that money, and there are better ways to spend money.

557
00:35:29.960 --> 00:35:32.079
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you know there are times when I can

558
00:35:32.119 --> 00:35:33.920
<v Speaker 1>separate the art and the artist, and this is not

559
00:35:34.000 --> 00:35:37.079
<v Speaker 1>one of them, correct, because she keeps doubling down.

560
00:35:37.320 --> 00:35:40.840
<v Speaker 2>Right, Because there's one thing when supporting the art that

561
00:35:40.880 --> 00:35:44.280
<v Speaker 2>you separate from the artist does nothing, but you know,

562
00:35:45.199 --> 00:35:47.800
<v Speaker 2>contribute to the zeitgeist. And there's another one when you're

563
00:35:47.840 --> 00:35:50.519
<v Speaker 2>directly funding the harm of other people.

564
00:35:50.840 --> 00:35:55.519
<v Speaker 1>Right. And if she's really worried about women, fund shelters, fund,

565
00:35:55.679 --> 00:36:01.119
<v Speaker 1>education fund, childcare fund, birth control, on fucking abortion for

566
00:36:01.159 --> 00:36:03.639
<v Speaker 1>that matter. Right, you know, there are a lot of

567
00:36:03.639 --> 00:36:05.519
<v Speaker 1>things that you could put your money toward that would

568
00:36:05.599 --> 00:36:12.840
<v Speaker 1>actually protect and empower women. Yeah, going after Transfok, Nope,

569
00:36:13.000 --> 00:36:20.119
<v Speaker 1>you're not accomplishing a goddamn thing but marginalizing already marginalized people.

570
00:36:21.039 --> 00:36:24.880
<v Speaker 2>Well, I told you, Like over the pandemic, I was

571
00:36:25.840 --> 00:36:31.199
<v Speaker 2>seriously thinking about sitting down and designing a bunch of

572
00:36:31.199 --> 00:36:35.440
<v Speaker 2>of like knockoff magashit to sell, and like I was like,

573
00:36:35.440 --> 00:36:37.800
<v Speaker 2>fuck it, I'll take the stupid people's money. We need money.

574
00:36:37.840 --> 00:36:39.800
<v Speaker 2>But then I stopped and thought, would you be able

575
00:36:39.800 --> 00:36:40.559
<v Speaker 2>to live with yourself?

576
00:36:40.679 --> 00:36:40.840
<v Speaker 1>No?

577
00:36:40.920 --> 00:36:42.239
<v Speaker 2>I would not, So I didn't do it.

578
00:36:42.320 --> 00:36:44.920
<v Speaker 1>No, I don't want that money exactly. I don't want

579
00:36:44.920 --> 00:36:47.000
<v Speaker 1>that money. I mean, although, if you want to buy

580
00:36:47.000 --> 00:36:48.880
<v Speaker 1>some nice merchandise, go anyway.

581
00:36:49.719 --> 00:36:51.840
<v Speaker 2>They'll finish the fucking sentence, go.

582
00:36:51.679 --> 00:36:55.800
<v Speaker 1>Over to our store. Yes, and purchased them. Full circle,

583
00:36:55.840 --> 00:36:57.440
<v Speaker 1>the podcast merchandise.

584
00:36:57.039 --> 00:37:00.079
<v Speaker 2>Yes, full circle the podcast, the store.

585
00:37:00.239 --> 00:37:04.280
<v Speaker 1>The store. Let's take a quick break and come back

586
00:37:04.320 --> 00:37:24.559
<v Speaker 1>with more good news. We'll be right back. You know,

587
00:37:24.639 --> 00:37:27.760
<v Speaker 1>I put these articles together, or you did, but they

588
00:37:27.760 --> 00:37:32.000
<v Speaker 1>belong together. Mackenzie Scott, former wife of Jeff Bezos Right,

589
00:37:33.000 --> 00:37:38.360
<v Speaker 1>donated forty five million dollars to the Trevor Project amid

590
00:37:38.400 --> 00:37:42.039
<v Speaker 1>this mental health crisis and all that has been going wrong.

591
00:37:42.159 --> 00:37:48.840
<v Speaker 1>It's a record gift during a critical funding moment. This

592
00:37:49.000 --> 00:37:53.480
<v Speaker 1>is the nation's leading suicide prevention and crisis intervention organization

593
00:37:53.599 --> 00:37:57.480
<v Speaker 1>for our youth YEP, they received a forty five million

594
00:37:57.559 --> 00:38:03.239
<v Speaker 1>dollar donation from philanthropist Scott, the largest single gift in

595
00:38:03.280 --> 00:38:09.119
<v Speaker 1>their twenty seven year history. The contribution arrives during a

596
00:38:09.159 --> 00:38:13.639
<v Speaker 1>turbulent period for the organization, which lost federal funding earlier

597
00:38:13.719 --> 00:38:18.920
<v Speaker 1>this year. While demand for LGBTQ plus mental health services

598
00:38:18.960 --> 00:38:23.079
<v Speaker 1>continues to climb across the United States and beyond, and

599
00:38:23.239 --> 00:38:26.039
<v Speaker 1>you know, as long as cruelty is the point The

600
00:38:26.079 --> 00:38:29.719
<v Speaker 1>Trevor Project is there to counteract it with love exactly.

601
00:38:29.840 --> 00:38:32.920
<v Speaker 1>And she put her money behind that?

602
00:38:33.760 --> 00:38:37.159
<v Speaker 2>Would that fall under burning the profits of our oppressors?

603
00:38:37.639 --> 00:38:41.800
<v Speaker 1>Oh? Maybe? Okay, I guess so right? Maybe? Oh from

604
00:38:41.920 --> 00:38:45.199
<v Speaker 1>the settlement with him. But isn't she Scott paper. Didn't

605
00:38:45.199 --> 00:38:47.440
<v Speaker 1>she have money to begin with that? Or is it

606
00:38:47.519 --> 00:38:50.519
<v Speaker 1>Bezos money? I mean she probably has more from divorcing him,

607
00:38:50.519 --> 00:38:52.719
<v Speaker 1>but still I thought she had money to begin with.

608
00:38:52.920 --> 00:38:55.000
<v Speaker 1>Well either way, either way, yeah, why not?

609
00:38:56.519 --> 00:38:58.920
<v Speaker 2>It's she's a bad ass for doing it.

610
00:38:59.039 --> 00:39:02.920
<v Speaker 1>The crisis continue use. This provides stability to the organization,

611
00:39:03.000 --> 00:39:06.199
<v Speaker 1>but it is not a finished line. It will have

612
00:39:06.440 --> 00:39:10.159
<v Speaker 1>long term impact. This file is a six million dollar

613
00:39:10.199 --> 00:39:14.679
<v Speaker 1>gift she made in twenty twenty YEP, signaling continued confidence

614
00:39:14.760 --> 00:39:18.320
<v Speaker 1>in the organization's mission and operations. I love it.

615
00:39:19.360 --> 00:39:23.360
<v Speaker 2>That's like, oh, okay, I like what you're doing, and

616
00:39:23.400 --> 00:39:26.760
<v Speaker 2>you're doing pretty good. Here's one hundred dollars. Oh your

617
00:39:27.239 --> 00:39:29.320
<v Speaker 2>your organization is in danger now and I love what

618
00:39:29.360 --> 00:39:32.199
<v Speaker 2>you're doing. Here's one thousand dollars. Is that it's that

619
00:39:32.360 --> 00:39:34.800
<v Speaker 2>equivalent in broke people terms.

620
00:39:37.039 --> 00:39:40.360
<v Speaker 1>It's wonderful. You know, this is how billionaires should spend

621
00:39:40.360 --> 00:39:44.000
<v Speaker 1>their money because it's not their money to begin with, somebody,

622
00:39:44.159 --> 00:39:47.360
<v Speaker 1>if you have billions of dollars at you're disposed, somebody

623
00:39:48.440 --> 00:39:54.159
<v Speaker 1>somewhere wasn't treated well. I'm just saying, like somebody wasn't

624
00:39:54.159 --> 00:39:56.480
<v Speaker 1>paid well, that you have that kind of money in

625
00:39:56.519 --> 00:39:59.639
<v Speaker 1>your pocket or something or something. Yeah, I mean people

626
00:39:59.679 --> 00:40:01.119
<v Speaker 1>had to be used along the way.

627
00:40:02.119 --> 00:40:05.199
<v Speaker 2>I'm trying to think what would be that equivalent in

628
00:40:05.280 --> 00:40:07.840
<v Speaker 2>terms of Beyonce. And then I'm like, well, then you

629
00:40:07.960 --> 00:40:10.360
<v Speaker 2>do have people that are like, spend the rent money

630
00:40:10.440 --> 00:40:11.440
<v Speaker 2>on Beyonce tickets?

631
00:40:11.519 --> 00:40:14.559
<v Speaker 1>Yes, they do. What is the Beyonce ticket costs? In

632
00:40:14.599 --> 00:40:16.519
<v Speaker 1>the way you're at, She don't go say no, no, no,

633
00:40:16.599 --> 00:40:18.360
<v Speaker 1>let me give you those tickets for free.

634
00:40:18.280 --> 00:40:20.760
<v Speaker 2>Right, No, if you want to sit in like the

635
00:40:20.840 --> 00:40:23.960
<v Speaker 2>last rowway at the top, you can spend anywhere from

636
00:40:24.000 --> 00:40:26.480
<v Speaker 2>two to three hundred dollars, right, But the further up

637
00:40:26.480 --> 00:40:29.039
<v Speaker 2>you go, I believe I saw tickets that were like

638
00:40:29.239 --> 00:40:31.199
<v Speaker 2>seventy five one hundred dollars a piece.

639
00:40:31.360 --> 00:40:33.679
<v Speaker 1>I don't believe she does many free concerts.

640
00:40:33.760 --> 00:40:36.199
<v Speaker 2>I'm just saying no, And you know, I would like

641
00:40:36.280 --> 00:40:37.599
<v Speaker 2>to see Beyonce in concert.

642
00:40:37.679 --> 00:40:41.159
<v Speaker 1>But yes, you know they just she does, you know,

643
00:40:41.280 --> 00:40:45.360
<v Speaker 1>probably more than almost anyone in terms of trying to

644
00:40:45.440 --> 00:40:50.239
<v Speaker 1>work ethically correct. Yeah. Absolutely, I still don't think anybody

645
00:40:50.280 --> 00:40:52.480
<v Speaker 1>should be a billionaire. More and more of that mind,

646
00:40:53.320 --> 00:40:58.559
<v Speaker 1>you know, right that, uh, this is crazy. You know,

647
00:40:58.559 --> 00:41:01.400
<v Speaker 1>we're going back to the guild to day and that

648
00:41:01.400 --> 00:41:03.800
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't that wouldn't fun for most people.

649
00:41:04.719 --> 00:41:06.880
<v Speaker 2>This is why guillotines were invented.

650
00:41:06.599 --> 00:41:11.599
<v Speaker 1>Exactly exactly. You know. I remember saying as a child,

651
00:41:12.559 --> 00:41:15.599
<v Speaker 1>if they keep this up, they won't be able to

652
00:41:15.599 --> 00:41:19.920
<v Speaker 1>buy locks big enough to keep them safe. And I

653
00:41:20.119 --> 00:41:25.800
<v Speaker 1>remember coining that phrase when I found out that Sears,

654
00:41:26.519 --> 00:41:31.719
<v Speaker 1>remember Sears, Yes, Sears, when I was a kid, was

655
00:41:31.760 --> 00:41:35.599
<v Speaker 1>full of full time employees who could pay mortgages and

656
00:41:35.719 --> 00:41:40.199
<v Speaker 1>raise families right and got full benefits. And the people

657
00:41:40.239 --> 00:41:42.880
<v Speaker 1>at Sears knew their shit. It was that kind of

658
00:41:42.960 --> 00:41:46.639
<v Speaker 1>department store, and they had everything literally, you know, so

659
00:41:46.840 --> 00:41:49.920
<v Speaker 1>there was a tool department and a clothing department, and

660
00:41:50.719 --> 00:41:52.679
<v Speaker 1>and they all knew what they were talking about, you know,

661
00:41:52.719 --> 00:41:55.360
<v Speaker 1>the applying salesman had done that their whole lives. All

662
00:41:55.440 --> 00:42:00.599
<v Speaker 1>of them tended to be full time employees, you know,

663
00:42:00.639 --> 00:42:03.239
<v Speaker 1>who could build a life based on the salary. They

664
00:42:03.239 --> 00:42:06.159
<v Speaker 1>got from Sears, and I remember having my mother having

665
00:42:06.199 --> 00:42:09.480
<v Speaker 1>a conversation with a woman who had been there for

666
00:42:09.519 --> 00:42:12.039
<v Speaker 1>many years, who was I think being laid off or

667
00:42:12.159 --> 00:42:15.960
<v Speaker 1>she was retiring maybe anyway. The point was though she

668
00:42:16.079 --> 00:42:18.760
<v Speaker 1>was talking about how all these you know, they were

669
00:42:18.760 --> 00:42:24.679
<v Speaker 1>not replacing full time employees, they were hiring part time employees, right. Oh,

670
00:42:24.719 --> 00:42:28.199
<v Speaker 1>and so they were putting in new register systems because

671
00:42:28.239 --> 00:42:32.119
<v Speaker 1>shrink went up, right, you know, like you've got to

672
00:42:32.159 --> 00:42:35.880
<v Speaker 1>have more security when you're not giving people anything because

673
00:42:35.880 --> 00:42:37.639
<v Speaker 1>they're going to steal from you. Of course they are,

674
00:42:37.679 --> 00:42:40.320
<v Speaker 1>because you're not to concur with them, right. And that's

675
00:42:40.360 --> 00:42:42.480
<v Speaker 1>when I went, you know, if we keep this up

676
00:42:42.519 --> 00:42:47.000
<v Speaker 1>as a society, you're I don't know if you can

677
00:42:47.039 --> 00:42:49.280
<v Speaker 1>buy locks that are big enough to keep you safe.

678
00:42:50.159 --> 00:42:52.559
<v Speaker 1>If we're all going to be out there roaming for bread,

679
00:42:53.039 --> 00:42:57.199
<v Speaker 1>you know, God help you. And that's what that kind

680
00:42:57.239 --> 00:43:02.400
<v Speaker 1>of mentality does, that mentality that says, you know, how

681
00:43:02.480 --> 00:43:06.199
<v Speaker 1>cheap can we get labor? Right, which shows how little

682
00:43:06.239 --> 00:43:09.239
<v Speaker 1>can we give so we make all this money?

683
00:43:09.400 --> 00:43:13.119
<v Speaker 2>Right? And if that's how my job values me, then yeah,

684
00:43:13.199 --> 00:43:15.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to take some shit home in my coat, right.

685
00:43:16.400 --> 00:43:21.000
<v Speaker 1>You know. But back then you know again, you know

686
00:43:21.039 --> 00:43:25.000
<v Speaker 1>when the Deptford Mall first opened, you had all these

687
00:43:25.039 --> 00:43:28.599
<v Speaker 1>full time people who had worked there for years, very

688
00:43:28.639 --> 00:43:32.880
<v Speaker 1>proudly knew their ship and they probably didn't have a

689
00:43:32.960 --> 00:43:34.840
<v Speaker 1>big shrink problem back then.

690
00:43:34.800 --> 00:43:36.559
<v Speaker 2>Because there's more of a sense of ownership.

691
00:43:36.599 --> 00:43:39.199
<v Speaker 1>There was a sense of ownership and you know, I

692
00:43:39.239 --> 00:43:44.280
<v Speaker 1>can live and survive and thrive and that just where

693
00:43:44.360 --> 00:43:47.639
<v Speaker 1>is that anymore? You know, like in a retail kind

694
00:43:47.639 --> 00:43:52.599
<v Speaker 1>of a job where you're actually your knowledge is valued.

695
00:43:52.800 --> 00:43:57.480
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, because before I had my high end but

696
00:43:57.599 --> 00:44:02.639
<v Speaker 2>not my current job. I is working in a grocery store,

697
00:44:02.679 --> 00:44:05.519
<v Speaker 2>but this particular grocery store was a family owned business,

698
00:44:06.199 --> 00:44:09.119
<v Speaker 2>and you know, there were benefits to the job and

699
00:44:09.159 --> 00:44:14.920
<v Speaker 2>we felt taken care of. You know, It's like I, yeah,

700
00:44:14.920 --> 00:44:17.199
<v Speaker 2>I was making minimum wage, but minimum wage here is

701
00:44:17.320 --> 00:44:19.719
<v Speaker 2>double what it is anywhere else. Well, that's true, Joe,

702
00:44:20.360 --> 00:44:24.239
<v Speaker 2>you know, so it was like I didn't feel as

703
00:44:24.400 --> 00:44:27.800
<v Speaker 2>resentful as I might have working in say a seven

704
00:44:27.880 --> 00:44:28.800
<v Speaker 2>eleven in Philly.

705
00:44:29.440 --> 00:44:32.599
<v Speaker 1>Well, right, because you know, they was a place where

706
00:44:32.599 --> 00:44:35.239
<v Speaker 1>they try to do better right, And there are places

707
00:44:35.280 --> 00:44:37.400
<v Speaker 1>like Costco and Wegmans and you know where they do

708
00:44:37.519 --> 00:44:38.000
<v Speaker 1>try to do.

709
00:44:38.480 --> 00:44:39.400
<v Speaker 2>Right much better.

710
00:44:39.800 --> 00:44:43.280
<v Speaker 1>But I just remember that and thinking, you know, my god,

711
00:44:43.320 --> 00:44:46.440
<v Speaker 1>we don't take care of people. We don't, you know,

712
00:44:46.480 --> 00:44:50.159
<v Speaker 1>we keep looking for ways to eliminate people, not take

713
00:44:50.199 --> 00:44:51.800
<v Speaker 1>care of our neighbors.

714
00:44:51.360 --> 00:44:53.360
<v Speaker 2>And then have the nerve to say nobody wants to work.

715
00:44:53.639 --> 00:44:55.360
<v Speaker 1>They have the nerve to say nobody wants to work.

716
00:44:55.719 --> 00:44:58.119
<v Speaker 2>No, no one wants to subject themselves to the conditions

717
00:44:58.119 --> 00:44:59.800
<v Speaker 2>that you're only willing.

718
00:44:59.519 --> 00:45:04.119
<v Speaker 1>To offer, right right, You know, if all you got

719
00:45:04.199 --> 00:45:06.239
<v Speaker 1>is part time work and you don't have benefits, and

720
00:45:06.280 --> 00:45:08.280
<v Speaker 1>you don't, I mean, why would First of all, why

721
00:45:08.280 --> 00:45:10.039
<v Speaker 1>would somebody come off unemployment for that?

722
00:45:10.480 --> 00:45:10.800
<v Speaker 2>Dang?

723
00:45:11.159 --> 00:45:14.960
<v Speaker 1>Second? Once unemployments over, why would you take that? If

724
00:45:15.000 --> 00:45:18.480
<v Speaker 1>you can find something that actually helps you survive, why

725
00:45:18.519 --> 00:45:20.159
<v Speaker 1>would you give all your time to that unless you

726
00:45:20.199 --> 00:45:21.480
<v Speaker 1>have no other choice?

727
00:45:21.760 --> 00:45:25.119
<v Speaker 2>Like, no shade, Why would I work for you and

728
00:45:25.239 --> 00:45:28.000
<v Speaker 2>making pennies when I can make three times as much

729
00:45:28.119 --> 00:45:29.840
<v Speaker 2>selling feet picks on only fans?

730
00:45:30.000 --> 00:45:36.320
<v Speaker 1>Well, yeah, there's that, no shade, you know, But we

731
00:45:36.440 --> 00:45:40.079
<v Speaker 1>used to kind of look at collectively as a society

732
00:45:40.239 --> 00:45:42.480
<v Speaker 1>at that kind of shit and say that's that shouldn't be.

733
00:45:42.760 --> 00:45:44.519
<v Speaker 2>If I thought my feet were cute, I'd have done this.

734
00:45:44.599 --> 00:45:47.519
<v Speaker 2>It's a long time ago Jesus correct, you could get

735
00:45:47.559 --> 00:45:51.400
<v Speaker 2>away with that. Well, thank you anyway, sidebar.

736
00:45:56.880 --> 00:46:01.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'm ruling nothing out at this point. It's

737
00:46:01.039 --> 00:46:05.440
<v Speaker 1>not cheap to live here anyway, anyway. You know, it

738
00:46:05.840 --> 00:46:10.199
<v Speaker 1>really is like we don't think enough about the dignity

739
00:46:10.239 --> 00:46:12.960
<v Speaker 1>of work, and you know how important it is. I

740
00:46:12.960 --> 00:46:16.199
<v Speaker 1>don't know how we've got down that road, but fuck

741
00:46:16.280 --> 00:46:22.199
<v Speaker 1>the billionaires, eat the wretch. This was another extended study.

742
00:46:22.800 --> 00:46:25.519
<v Speaker 1>And you know I have said and I stand behind

743
00:46:25.559 --> 00:46:29.199
<v Speaker 1>this idea. This is from ScienceDirect dot com. I stand

744
00:46:29.239 --> 00:46:34.880
<v Speaker 1>by the notion that this hyper fixation on trans people

745
00:46:35.199 --> 00:46:40.880
<v Speaker 1>has some added benefits. We call them unintended consequences. Right

746
00:46:41.440 --> 00:46:45.119
<v Speaker 1>in that knowledge has never been higher, It's never been

747
00:46:45.199 --> 00:46:50.079
<v Speaker 1>easier to get accurate information, right, right, even though there's

748
00:46:50.119 --> 00:46:55.199
<v Speaker 1>all this misinformation. The February edition of the Journal of

749
00:46:55.360 --> 00:46:59.599
<v Speaker 1>Pediatrics released a study that you know, the headline reads

750
00:46:59.679 --> 00:47:06.400
<v Speaker 1>change in suicidality among transgender adolescents following hormone therapy. They

751
00:47:06.440 --> 00:47:11.000
<v Speaker 1>did an extended study. These things are finally happening. It's

752
00:47:11.039 --> 00:47:14.880
<v Speaker 1>good when they happen among reputable folks, right, Yeah. The

753
00:47:14.920 --> 00:47:20.960
<v Speaker 1>results suicidality significantly declined from pre treatment to post treatment

754
00:47:21.440 --> 00:47:25.639
<v Speaker 1>The effect was consistent across sex assigned at birth, age,

755
00:47:25.639 --> 00:47:30.000
<v Speaker 1>at start of therapy, and treatment duration. The conclusion was

756
00:47:31.159 --> 00:47:36.960
<v Speaker 1>HT was associated with clinically meaningful reductions in suicidality over time,

757
00:47:37.599 --> 00:47:42.760
<v Speaker 1>Extending prior findings with a larger sample and longer follow up.

758
00:47:43.440 --> 00:47:48.400
<v Speaker 1>These study findings provide clinical evidence supporting the mental health

759
00:47:48.400 --> 00:47:54.199
<v Speaker 1>benefits of timely access to hormone therapy in this population.

760
00:47:54.599 --> 00:48:03.599
<v Speaker 1>Hello once again, Yeah it's science, folks, Yeah, it's trans.

761
00:48:03.639 --> 00:48:10.199
<v Speaker 1>People are real. Trans kids know they're trans, and trans

762
00:48:10.239 --> 00:48:11.599
<v Speaker 1>medicine saves lives.

763
00:48:11.960 --> 00:48:14.000
<v Speaker 2>And you know what science has there to do with

764
00:48:14.880 --> 00:48:17.440
<v Speaker 2>emotions periods.

765
00:48:17.639 --> 00:48:21.079
<v Speaker 1>Right, So when the pedophiles and the predators tell you

766
00:48:21.119 --> 00:48:23.599
<v Speaker 1>that I'm the problem, I hope you've listened to the

767
00:48:23.639 --> 00:48:26.360
<v Speaker 1>show long enough to now. No, I'm not right. No, No,

768
00:48:27.760 --> 00:48:30.480
<v Speaker 1>I am not the problem. Nope, me and mine are

769
00:48:30.480 --> 00:48:31.280
<v Speaker 1>not the problem.

770
00:48:31.440 --> 00:48:31.920
<v Speaker 2>Nope.

771
00:48:32.320 --> 00:48:38.679
<v Speaker 1>Anyway, yet another study, yet another you know, uh, lots

772
00:48:38.679 --> 00:48:43.079
<v Speaker 1>of references here. Changes in gender DySp you in her

773
00:48:43.079 --> 00:48:46.519
<v Speaker 1>personal minority, stress and mental health among transgender youth after

774
00:48:46.559 --> 00:48:49.920
<v Speaker 1>one year of hormone therapy. Emotional health of transgender youth

775
00:48:50.000 --> 00:48:53.519
<v Speaker 1>twenty four months after initiating gender affirming hormone therapy, the

776
00:48:53.559 --> 00:48:56.880
<v Speaker 1>association of gender affirming hormone therapy with depression, thoughts of

777
00:48:56.920 --> 00:49:02.079
<v Speaker 1>suicide and attempted suicide among transgender and and on and

778
00:49:02.119 --> 00:49:06.039
<v Speaker 1>on and on. These papers are being published. They all

779
00:49:06.079 --> 00:49:12.199
<v Speaker 1>support the same conclusion. When we have access to proper

780
00:49:12.480 --> 00:49:16.639
<v Speaker 1>gender firming care, it is life saving and life transforming,

781
00:49:17.159 --> 00:49:20.440
<v Speaker 1>and our regret rates are far lower than any other

782
00:49:21.159 --> 00:49:25.880
<v Speaker 1>form of healthcare. Right because it's right on the news,

783
00:49:27.800 --> 00:49:30.239
<v Speaker 1>right on the news. It's what we needed.

784
00:49:30.559 --> 00:49:30.840
<v Speaker 2>You know.

785
00:49:31.039 --> 00:49:33.239
<v Speaker 1>It's amazing what happens when you get the right medicine

786
00:49:33.239 --> 00:49:38.559
<v Speaker 1>for them, right thing exactly. Anyway, there's she had another study.

787
00:49:38.599 --> 00:49:41.719
<v Speaker 1>I thought that that was good news. Yeah, yeah, so that.

788
00:49:42.320 --> 00:49:43.719
<v Speaker 1>I mean, We've got a couple of fun things to

789
00:49:43.760 --> 00:49:46.440
<v Speaker 1>talk about later. But it's about all the good news

790
00:49:46.440 --> 00:49:50.119
<v Speaker 1>we could find this week. And we looked hard. Yeah

791
00:49:50.119 --> 00:49:53.800
<v Speaker 1>we did that. Said it is time for our favorite segment,

792
00:49:54.480 --> 00:50:04.920
<v Speaker 1>sad joy people taking pleasure. Ha ha ha. This first item,

793
00:50:05.239 --> 00:50:11.360
<v Speaker 1>a protrans pediatric group won twelve million dollars as the

794
00:50:11.480 --> 00:50:20.800
<v Speaker 1>judge slams Robert Kennedy's retaliatory funding cuts. Ha. Yeah. The

795
00:50:20.840 --> 00:50:25.920
<v Speaker 1>American Academy of Pediatrics will get their grants back As

796
00:50:26.079 --> 00:50:31.199
<v Speaker 1>lawsuit moves forward, a US district court judge sided with

797
00:50:31.360 --> 00:50:34.840
<v Speaker 1>the American Academy of Pediatrics late Sunday night in a

798
00:50:34.920 --> 00:50:39.280
<v Speaker 1>ruling that temporarily restores twelve million dollars in funding to

799
00:50:39.320 --> 00:50:45.480
<v Speaker 1>the group. HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jackass and full

800
00:50:45.960 --> 00:50:51.559
<v Speaker 1>abruptly canceled previously awarded grants worth eighteen million dollars in December,

801
00:50:51.760 --> 00:50:55.519
<v Speaker 1>and what the Children's Health group called a retaliatory move

802
00:50:56.480 --> 00:50:59.760
<v Speaker 1>just exactly what it was right. Children are in charge

803
00:50:59.840 --> 00:51:04.880
<v Speaker 1>right now. US District Judge Beryl Howell in Washington, d C.

804
00:51:05.159 --> 00:51:08.480
<v Speaker 1>Agreed restoring a portion of the funding as the law

805
00:51:08.519 --> 00:51:12.719
<v Speaker 1>agreed restoring a portion of the funding as AAP's lawsuit

806
00:51:12.760 --> 00:51:17.280
<v Speaker 1>against the Trump administration plays out. It's not a case

807
00:51:17.280 --> 00:51:21.280
<v Speaker 1>about whether AAP or AHHUS is right or even has

808
00:51:21.360 --> 00:51:24.880
<v Speaker 1>the better position on vaccinations and gender affirming care for

809
00:51:24.960 --> 00:51:28.280
<v Speaker 1>children or any other public health policy, she wrote in

810
00:51:28.320 --> 00:51:31.000
<v Speaker 1>her decision. This is the case about whether the federal

811
00:51:31.039 --> 00:51:35.480
<v Speaker 1>government has exercised power in a manner designed to chill

812
00:51:35.599 --> 00:51:41.599
<v Speaker 1>public health policy debate by retaliating against a leading and

813
00:51:41.760 --> 00:51:48.159
<v Speaker 1>generally trusted pediatrician member professional organization focused on improving the

814
00:51:48.199 --> 00:51:49.199
<v Speaker 1>health of children.

815
00:51:49.400 --> 00:51:53.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, trying to discredit the actual experts. Yep, so that

816
00:51:53.760 --> 00:51:56.000
<v Speaker 2>your little bullshit agenda can be upfront.

817
00:51:56.400 --> 00:51:59.400
<v Speaker 1>That's what they got their hands left for, and rightly so.

818
00:52:01.519 --> 00:52:04.719
<v Speaker 1>They cited a range of reasons for their funding cuts,

819
00:52:05.559 --> 00:52:11.800
<v Speaker 1>including the use of identity based language and references to

820
00:52:11.960 --> 00:52:17.760
<v Speaker 1>racial disparities and pregnant people. Who are the snowflakes? Again,

821
00:52:18.559 --> 00:52:20.960
<v Speaker 1>who are the snowflakes? We're going to take away your

822
00:52:21.159 --> 00:52:25.000
<v Speaker 1>money because we don't like your words, we don't like

823
00:52:25.280 --> 00:52:28.320
<v Speaker 1>inclusive language to the extent that we don't give a

824
00:52:28.360 --> 00:52:32.400
<v Speaker 1>shit who dies. That's what they're doing. That is literally

825
00:52:33.039 --> 00:52:37.760
<v Speaker 1>what is happening in the United States of America. Thank

826
00:52:37.800 --> 00:52:42.840
<v Speaker 1>god the courts are holding at least sometimes. In this case, they.

827
00:52:42.639 --> 00:52:45.079
<v Speaker 2>Did purity insanity.

828
00:52:45.599 --> 00:52:50.039
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, there's a chorus of condemnation over Kennedy's decision to

829
00:52:50.039 --> 00:52:54.079
<v Speaker 1>stop recommending the COVID nineteen vaccine for children, as well

830
00:52:54.119 --> 00:52:59.719
<v Speaker 1>as his firing of the CDC Panel of Independent Vaccine Advisors.

831
00:53:00.039 --> 00:53:03.159
<v Speaker 1>I like to replace them with a handpicked panel of

832
00:53:03.280 --> 00:53:04.880
<v Speaker 1>vaccine skeptics.

833
00:53:06.000 --> 00:53:08.119
<v Speaker 2>Chorus, who know nothing? You know?

834
00:53:08.239 --> 00:53:10.360
<v Speaker 1>This is taking the people who do know and who

835
00:53:10.559 --> 00:53:14.360
<v Speaker 1>dedicated their lives to knowing and replacing them with you

836
00:53:14.920 --> 00:53:17.719
<v Speaker 1>might as well be random folks from the internet who

837
00:53:17.760 --> 00:53:19.840
<v Speaker 1>have deeply help opinions.

838
00:53:20.039 --> 00:53:22.800
<v Speaker 2>I mean, low key.

839
00:53:21.960 --> 00:53:25.760
<v Speaker 1>When your kid is dead because you listen to these people.

840
00:53:26.440 --> 00:53:27.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't know who you're going to cry to, but

841
00:53:28.559 --> 00:53:29.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to see a lawsuit.

842
00:53:30.760 --> 00:53:32.639
<v Speaker 2>It kind of does look like they picked folks off

843
00:53:32.679 --> 00:53:33.119
<v Speaker 2>of Twitter.

844
00:53:33.519 --> 00:53:35.800
<v Speaker 1>We tried to tell you, We all tried to tell you.

845
00:53:36.440 --> 00:53:38.639
<v Speaker 1>In fact, you know, I'm at a point right now

846
00:53:38.639 --> 00:53:40.599
<v Speaker 1>where I feel like saying, don't go to a hospital

847
00:53:41.000 --> 00:53:44.119
<v Speaker 1>if you support this administration and you support this kind

848
00:53:44.159 --> 00:53:46.679
<v Speaker 1>of nonsense in terms of you know, a person being

849
00:53:46.679 --> 00:53:50.480
<v Speaker 1>in charge of HHS. If you get cancer, I don't

850
00:53:50.480 --> 00:53:53.360
<v Speaker 1>want to see you at the oncologist office, right, I

851
00:53:53.400 --> 00:53:55.119
<v Speaker 1>want to see you go. I want to see you

852
00:53:55.159 --> 00:53:57.480
<v Speaker 1>talking to I don't know your faith healer, go to

853
00:53:57.559 --> 00:53:59.119
<v Speaker 1>church right where you belong.

854
00:53:59.400 --> 00:53:59.599
<v Speaker 2>Right.

855
00:54:00.119 --> 00:54:02.599
<v Speaker 1>You want to keep discrediting science, You want to keep

856
00:54:02.639 --> 00:54:06.639
<v Speaker 1>discrediting expertise. It's becoming dangerous to the public health and

857
00:54:06.760 --> 00:54:12.039
<v Speaker 1>has been. You know what, don't don't use our healthcare

858
00:54:12.079 --> 00:54:15.440
<v Speaker 1>system then you stay away from it. Yeah, you and

859
00:54:15.760 --> 00:54:21.000
<v Speaker 1>your you and yours can go die in a field. Well,

860
00:54:23.159 --> 00:54:27.679
<v Speaker 1>you know, I mean that's not how we do so

861
00:54:27.840 --> 00:54:32.639
<v Speaker 1>when even these jackasses show up gasping for breath as

862
00:54:32.679 --> 00:54:36.199
<v Speaker 1>they did with COVID nineteen because they would not take precautions,

863
00:54:36.920 --> 00:54:42.360
<v Speaker 1>they now, yeah, right, too late, sorry, and you know,

864
00:54:42.639 --> 00:54:48.199
<v Speaker 1>they died. So many people died unnecessarily because they wouldn't listen.

865
00:54:48.679 --> 00:54:52.800
<v Speaker 1>And this is what fuels that, you know, people like

866
00:54:53.119 --> 00:54:56.440
<v Speaker 1>RFK being in a position of power never ever should

867
00:54:56.519 --> 00:55:00.159
<v Speaker 1>have been. You know, but thanks Saint Reagan, because as

868
00:55:00.159 --> 00:55:04.800
<v Speaker 1>he unleashed all of this, he unleashed the fringe. And

869
00:55:04.840 --> 00:55:07.760
<v Speaker 1>it's still happening, and we're still paying for the decisions

870
00:55:07.800 --> 00:55:10.360
<v Speaker 1>that man made and still and this is an example

871
00:55:10.400 --> 00:55:12.280
<v Speaker 1>of that. As far as I am concerned.

872
00:55:12.119 --> 00:55:15.000
<v Speaker 2>There's still folks out there trying to say that COVID

873
00:55:15.039 --> 00:55:17.480
<v Speaker 2>wasn't that bad. I just heard someone say that it

874
00:55:17.519 --> 00:55:18.280
<v Speaker 2>worked the other day.

875
00:55:18.400 --> 00:55:22.079
<v Speaker 1>Well, yeah, the court shut down a dangerous attempt to

876
00:55:22.159 --> 00:55:26.159
<v Speaker 1>use federal funding as a political weapon and punish pediatricians

877
00:55:26.199 --> 00:55:29.719
<v Speaker 1>for speaking the truth. This ruling sends a clear message

878
00:55:29.760 --> 00:55:33.920
<v Speaker 1>no administration gets to silence doctors, undermine public health, or

879
00:55:33.920 --> 00:55:36.760
<v Speaker 1>put kids at risk, and we will not stop fighting

880
00:55:36.880 --> 00:55:41.599
<v Speaker 1>until the unlawful retaliation is fully ended. Good please keep

881
00:55:41.639 --> 00:55:45.119
<v Speaker 1>fighting it's a shame that they have to It's a

882
00:55:45.159 --> 00:55:48.800
<v Speaker 1>shame that they have to dedicate any energy to this

883
00:55:49.840 --> 00:55:54.960
<v Speaker 1>nonsense that they do. I was quoting Sky Perriman, president

884
00:55:54.960 --> 00:56:00.719
<v Speaker 1>and CEO of Democracy Forward, the legal group representing AAP.

885
00:56:01.400 --> 00:56:06.119
<v Speaker 1>They won twelve million dollars. That's got to sting a little.

886
00:56:06.519 --> 00:56:09.719
<v Speaker 2>And good because again, their cash is all they understand.

887
00:56:10.280 --> 00:56:14.480
<v Speaker 1>Kind of well and humiliated. They can be humiliated. I

888
00:56:14.480 --> 00:56:20.280
<v Speaker 1>mean this is humilating. Rick Reannell, Oh yeah, I love

889
00:56:20.320 --> 00:56:23.960
<v Speaker 1>the headline. Gay Trump toady claims he meant to fire

890
00:56:24.000 --> 00:56:26.960
<v Speaker 1>an opera company but came up with the worst excuse.

891
00:56:27.320 --> 00:56:30.360
<v Speaker 1>Oh yes, because the opera company left. Yes, but he

892
00:56:30.440 --> 00:56:30.880
<v Speaker 1>meant to fire.

893
00:56:31.159 --> 00:56:34.159
<v Speaker 2>It's very much like you can't quit. I fired you.

894
00:56:34.280 --> 00:56:34.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, bullshit?

895
00:56:36.239 --> 00:56:38.159
<v Speaker 2>Uh uh gay Trump Administration.

896

00:56:44.760 --> 00:56:49.000
<v Speaker 2>I love this, claimed his ex account was hacked that

899
00:56:49.039 --> 00:56:49.880
<v Speaker 2>week the week.

900
00:56:49.760 --> 00:56:50.920
<v Speaker 1>Twitter Twitter account.

901
00:56:51.000 --> 00:56:54.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah ACKed ya this is from last week. Claimed his

902
00:56:54.840 --> 00:56:59.400
<v Speaker 2>account was hacked over the weekend by leftist enemies intent

903
00:56:59.519 --> 00:57:03.199
<v Speaker 2>on under mining his boss's promise for a new quote

904
00:57:03.199 --> 00:57:07.320
<v Speaker 2>golden age in the arts at the Kennedy Center whew.

905
00:57:08.960 --> 00:57:12.880
<v Speaker 1>Yet is he that delusional? Is he right there with

906
00:57:12.960 --> 00:57:15.679
<v Speaker 1>all this? Is he that stupid?

907
00:57:16.000 --> 00:57:20.119
<v Speaker 2>I guess he is, or he's just highly practiced in

908
00:57:20.199 --> 00:57:22.280
<v Speaker 2>having his tongue so far up. Someone's asked that when

909
00:57:22.280 --> 00:57:23.760
<v Speaker 2>they open their mouth you can see his face.

910
00:57:23.920 --> 00:57:25.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they all can't decorate either.

911
00:57:26.960 --> 00:57:30.599
<v Speaker 2>So on that Friday, the Washington National Opera we talked

912
00:57:30.599 --> 00:57:32.880
<v Speaker 2>about this on the show, announced that they were leaving

913
00:57:32.960 --> 00:57:36.480
<v Speaker 2>the once revered cultural institution due to poort ticket sales

914
00:57:36.519 --> 00:57:39.920
<v Speaker 2>and attendance after Trump's takeover of the institution last year.

915
00:57:40.679 --> 00:57:44.920
<v Speaker 2>The next day, Grenelle said that he fired the opera company,

916
00:57:45.199 --> 00:57:47.760
<v Speaker 2>not the other way around, and claimed he had already

917
00:57:47.800 --> 00:57:53.360
<v Speaker 2>announced it in posts that were deleted. In a hat quote,

918
00:57:53.360 --> 00:57:56.360
<v Speaker 2>the Trump Kennedy Center has made the decision to end

919
00:57:56.480 --> 00:58:00.280
<v Speaker 2>the exclusive all caps partnership with the Washing to An

920
00:58:00.320 --> 00:58:03.280
<v Speaker 2>Opera so that we can have the flexibility and funds

921
00:58:03.320 --> 00:58:06.360
<v Speaker 2>to bring in operas from around the world and across

922
00:58:06.400 --> 00:58:09.599
<v Speaker 2>the US, is what he said on good Luck on Twitter.

923
00:58:09.719 --> 00:58:12.679
<v Speaker 1>Good luck we good luck having people travel to this country.

924
00:58:12.880 --> 00:58:15.880
<v Speaker 2>Right. We have spent millions of dollars to support the

925
00:58:16.000 --> 00:58:20.159
<v Speaker 2>Washington Opera's exclusivity, and yet they were still millions of

926
00:58:20.239 --> 00:58:23.239
<v Speaker 2>dollars in the hole and getting worse. It's almost like

927
00:58:23.320 --> 00:58:26.760
<v Speaker 2>they're an arts nonprofit.

928
00:58:26.039 --> 00:58:31.519
<v Speaker 1>And it's your fault anyway. Yeah, oh yeah, this is

929
00:58:31.559 --> 00:58:36.719
<v Speaker 1>such bullshit, right, but I plan that right, Oh girl.

930
00:58:36.480 --> 00:58:40.880
<v Speaker 2>Please, so, he said. The left continues to try and

931
00:58:40.960 --> 00:58:43.840
<v Speaker 2>silence people they don't agree with, Cornell said in his

932
00:58:43.920 --> 00:58:46.880
<v Speaker 2>post claiming a hack and the pursuit of its perpetrators,

933
00:58:47.000 --> 00:58:48.559
<v Speaker 2>but they will never succeed.

934
00:58:49.199 --> 00:58:52.360
<v Speaker 1>He added, We're the ones trying to silence dissent.

935
00:58:53.239 --> 00:58:58.320
<v Speaker 2>Uh huh yeah. His tweet said, I have alerted X

936
00:58:58.920 --> 00:59:01.679
<v Speaker 2>Twitter that's some one to hack my account last night

937
00:59:01.719 --> 00:59:05.599
<v Speaker 2>and deleted my content on our opera announcement and media corrections.

938
00:59:06.039 --> 00:59:08.840
<v Speaker 2>X will find the hacker and deal with him, slash her.

939
00:59:09.280 --> 00:59:13.480
<v Speaker 1>And that's the only place this existed. It was only released.

940
00:59:13.039 --> 00:59:16.280
<v Speaker 2>On that part that part. That party.

941
00:59:16.480 --> 00:59:19.280
<v Speaker 1>Show us the files, otherwise you got to create them,

942
00:59:19.400 --> 00:59:20.280
<v Speaker 1>right right.

943
00:59:20.639 --> 00:59:24.400
<v Speaker 2>I will repost the statements. I will repost the statements

944
00:59:24.400 --> 00:59:27.840
<v Speaker 2>from last night once they are recovered. Stand by you

945
00:59:27.880 --> 00:59:30.199
<v Speaker 2>see how this doesn't require a lick of like proof

946
00:59:30.840 --> 00:59:31.199
<v Speaker 2>or anything.

947
00:59:31.239 --> 00:59:34.159
<v Speaker 1>What they do, this is who they are. They are liars,

948
00:59:34.239 --> 00:59:34.840
<v Speaker 1>all of them.

949
00:59:35.000 --> 00:59:38.840
<v Speaker 2>If anyone has screenshots of last night's content. I would

950
00:59:38.840 --> 00:59:40.639
<v Speaker 2>appreciate you reposting.

951
00:59:40.199 --> 00:59:43.000
<v Speaker 1>Here, but no one dead her. Right.

952
00:59:43.320 --> 00:59:45.920
<v Speaker 2>The left continues to try and silence people they don't

953
00:59:45.920 --> 00:59:48.320
<v Speaker 2>agree with, but they will never succeed. So you put

954
00:59:48.360 --> 00:59:51.679
<v Speaker 2>it that way, so if nothing comes of it, you

955
00:59:51.719 --> 00:59:53.559
<v Speaker 2>can blame other people for.

956
00:59:53.840 --> 00:59:56.480
<v Speaker 1>The Left is so good at what they do, right,

957
00:59:57.440 --> 01:00:00.480
<v Speaker 1>you know what like, oh you look and more the

01:00:20.559 --> 01:00:22.639

<v Speaker 1>I planned this. Yeah, this is all part of my

963

971
01:01:03.400 --> 01:01:06.239
<v Speaker 1>for her. I loved it. I think it's fun. We

972
01:01:06.239 --> 01:01:10.599
<v Speaker 1>didn't watch the Golden Globes, but I'm very happy that

973
01:01:10.679 --> 01:01:13.480
<v Speaker 1>she took the opportunity to do this.

974
01:01:13.719 --> 01:01:17.679
<v Speaker 2>Yes, and it was all over and the best part

975
01:01:17.760 --> 01:01:20.559
<v Speaker 2>was she next she said what she said, and she

976
01:01:20.599 --> 01:01:22.599
<v Speaker 2>meant when she said, because when she got up there

977
01:01:22.719 --> 01:01:25.320
<v Speaker 2>to present the award, she said, I would like to

978
01:01:25.320 --> 01:01:28.960
<v Speaker 2>take this opportunity to thank you, Ricky Gervais for not

979
01:01:29.079 --> 01:01:34.760
<v Speaker 2>being here, and if you win, I'm going to accept

980
01:01:34.760 --> 01:01:36.519
<v Speaker 2>this award on your behalf and you were going to

981
01:01:36.599 --> 01:01:38.719
<v Speaker 2>be thanking God and the trans community. And then she

982
01:01:38.920 --> 01:01:41.519
<v Speaker 2>opened the envelope and his name was there, so she said,

983
01:01:41.559 --> 01:01:43.480
<v Speaker 2>I would like to Ricky would like to thank God

984
01:01:43.519 --> 01:01:46.119
<v Speaker 2>and the trans community, and then walked off. She said

985
01:01:46.119 --> 01:01:47.199
<v Speaker 2>what she said, and then what she.

986
01:01:47.159 --> 01:01:52.199
<v Speaker 1>Said, Well, she opened her remarks by thanking the Golden

987
01:01:52.199 --> 01:01:55.440
<v Speaker 1>globes right, because you know, there's some people pissed off

988
01:01:55.440 --> 01:01:58.159
<v Speaker 1>that a black queer woman is up here doing the

989
01:01:58.239 --> 01:02:02.719
<v Speaker 1>job of two mediocre white She then proceeded to gently

990
01:02:02.840 --> 01:02:07.880
<v Speaker 1>roast the Category six nominees, including Brett Goldstein, Kevin Hart,

991
01:02:08.039 --> 01:02:11.199
<v Speaker 1>Kamal and Johnny and Sarah Silverman. But when it came

992
01:02:11.239 --> 01:02:14.360
<v Speaker 1>to two of the nominees, she got a bit more savage.

993
01:02:14.559 --> 01:02:17.920
<v Speaker 1>Bill Moore, You'll give us so much, but I would

994
01:02:17.920 --> 01:02:22.199
<v Speaker 1>love a little less word amen. It is unclear what

995
01:02:22.400 --> 01:02:25.119
<v Speaker 1>specifically she would like to see less. No, it's not

996
01:02:25.599 --> 01:02:29.679
<v Speaker 1>from Mare, who styles himself as politically moderate. She may

997
01:02:29.719 --> 01:02:32.960
<v Speaker 1>have been referencing his vocal opposition to gender affirming care

998
01:02:33.000 --> 01:02:36.159
<v Speaker 1>for minors, or his support for Floridas Don't Say Gay law,

999
01:02:36.480 --> 01:02:41.840
<v Speaker 1>his genital transfer, his general transphobia, general same thing, Or

1000
01:02:41.880 --> 01:02:46.440
<v Speaker 1>maybe she was just referring to more belittling celebrities like Sykes,

1001
01:02:46.519 --> 01:02:49.599
<v Speaker 1>Mark Ruffalo, and Jean Smart, who wore be Good pins

1002
01:02:49.840 --> 01:02:52.320
<v Speaker 1>to the Golden Globes in honor of Verna Nicole Good,

1003
01:02:52.519 --> 01:02:55.440
<v Speaker 1>the thirty seven year old queer mother who died after

1004
01:02:55.480 --> 01:02:59.199
<v Speaker 1>getting hit by gunfire from an ice agent, shot in

1005
01:02:59.239 --> 01:03:02.920
<v Speaker 1>the face and execute. When it came to Ricky Gervase,

1006
01:03:03.519 --> 01:03:07.760
<v Speaker 1>Sykes noted that the unapologetically anti trans comedian was absent

1007
01:03:07.800 --> 01:03:10.559
<v Speaker 1>from the ceremony. I love you for not being here,

1008
01:03:11.800 --> 01:03:14.119
<v Speaker 1>et cetera, because if you win, I get to accept

1009
01:03:14.119 --> 01:03:16.039
<v Speaker 1>the award on your behalf and you're going to saank

1010
01:03:16.079 --> 01:03:21.119
<v Speaker 1>God and the trans community, which is what happened. Yep. Yeah,

1011
01:03:21.159 --> 01:03:27.639
<v Speaker 1>he's been punching down since twenty nineteen in defense of JK.

1012
01:03:27.800 --> 01:03:29.840
<v Speaker 2>Rowling, and he's been unfunny for longer than that.

1013
01:03:31.840 --> 01:03:34.679
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they're jokes, they're jokes, he said he has a

1014
01:03:34.760 --> 01:03:37.719
<v Speaker 1>right to jokes. It did lead to the call for

1015
01:03:37.800 --> 01:03:42.599
<v Speaker 1>his dismissal as host of the twenty twenty Golden Globes. Yep,

1016
01:03:42.920 --> 01:03:46.000
<v Speaker 1>he doubled down in twenty twenty two on his anti

1017
01:03:46.280 --> 01:03:52.480
<v Speaker 1>trans whatever, and as recently as last week he said

1018
01:03:52.679 --> 01:03:56.719
<v Speaker 1>in an interview with BBC Radio fours This Cultural Life

1019
01:03:56.960 --> 01:03:59.960
<v Speaker 1>that he hasn't changed his tune on trans issues because

1020
01:04:00.119 --> 01:04:01.320
<v Speaker 1>I think I'm right.

1021
01:04:02.079 --> 01:04:04.480
<v Speaker 2>That was the most white man answer I know.

1022
01:04:05.599 --> 01:04:12.039
<v Speaker 1>I know, well he is. Yeah, yeah, And I love

1023
01:04:12.159 --> 01:04:15.800
<v Speaker 1>when they say you can't say anything anymore. Maybe you're

1024
01:04:15.880 --> 01:04:19.360
<v Speaker 1>just not funny, babe, right right, punching down is never

1025
01:04:19.400 --> 01:04:23.400
<v Speaker 1>going to be funny but mediocre men. And it's not

1026
01:04:23.559 --> 01:04:27.800
<v Speaker 1>just white men, because Dave Chappelle, you know who has

1027
01:04:27.920 --> 01:04:28.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry.

1028
01:04:29.400 --> 01:04:30.519
<v Speaker 2>I think I'm right.

1029
01:04:30.880 --> 01:04:31.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

1030
01:04:31.559 --> 01:04:33.639
<v Speaker 2>That makes me think of I bring this up often.

1031
01:04:33.920 --> 01:04:35.840
<v Speaker 2>That makes me think of that episode of Will and

1032
01:04:35.880 --> 01:04:38.519
<v Speaker 2>Grace when Karen was like, and you know how I

1033
01:04:38.559 --> 01:04:44.320
<v Speaker 2>know it's true because I really think so. And yes,

1034
01:04:44.400 --> 01:04:46.719
<v Speaker 2>you do have the right to your jokes, and we

1035
01:04:46.840 --> 01:04:49.239
<v Speaker 2>have the right to call you an asshole. Tell you're

1036
01:04:49.239 --> 01:04:50.239
<v Speaker 2>not funny that Mama.

1037
01:04:50.079 --> 01:04:53.840
<v Speaker 1>Raised you wrong, just saying exactly, yeah. I there was

1038
01:04:53.880 --> 01:04:56.119
<v Speaker 1>a time when I thought it was funny.

1039
01:04:56.199 --> 01:04:57.840
<v Speaker 2>He has been funny.

1040
01:04:57.639 --> 01:04:59.960
<v Speaker 1>And then I went, you know what, I'm sorry, punching

1041
01:05:00.119 --> 01:05:02.159
<v Speaker 1>down is never funny. I don't care who you're punching

1042
01:05:02.159 --> 01:05:03.800
<v Speaker 1>down at. I used to be a fan of Bill

1043
01:05:03.840 --> 01:05:07.480
<v Speaker 1>Maher It's not okay and right, yeah, I was. At

1044
01:05:07.480 --> 01:05:10.360
<v Speaker 1>one time I cared what he had to say, and

1045
01:05:10.400 --> 01:05:16.119
<v Speaker 1>then I realized he there were similarities between his dissent

1046
01:05:16.840 --> 01:05:22.280
<v Speaker 1>and our former friend you know, yeah, who goes well,

1047
01:05:22.320 --> 01:05:26.840
<v Speaker 1>there's something to all that. A right, maybe we should

1048
01:05:26.840 --> 01:05:32.159
<v Speaker 1>be listening more to this obscene rhetoric. Some of it

1049
01:05:32.199 --> 01:05:36.519
<v Speaker 1>makes sense to me, go fuck off exactly anyway, before

1050
01:05:36.559 --> 01:05:38.920
<v Speaker 1>we take another break, do you have a fifteen minute fave?

1051
01:05:39.360 --> 01:05:40.960
<v Speaker 1>I do? Okay.

1052
01:05:41.840 --> 01:05:46.800
<v Speaker 2>So a few weeks ago, I was listening to One

1053
01:05:46.920 --> 01:05:54.199
<v Speaker 2>Song podcast and they had mentioned this band from the

1054
01:05:54.320 --> 01:05:58.679
<v Speaker 2>UK called the Lambrini Girls, and they're an all woman

1055
01:05:59.119 --> 01:06:02.280
<v Speaker 2>like neo punk group.

1056
01:06:02.320 --> 01:06:03.960
<v Speaker 1>Will call them okay.

1057
01:06:04.000 --> 01:06:06.519
<v Speaker 2>And so I went and I checked out their album

1058
01:06:07.039 --> 01:06:12.119
<v Speaker 2>and I love them. It's a bunch of women like screaming,

1059
01:06:12.239 --> 01:06:16.760
<v Speaker 2>but they're talking about gentrification and male fragility.

1060
01:06:17.880 --> 01:06:21.320
<v Speaker 1>It's just good, no wonder. They're screaming.

1061
01:06:24.039 --> 01:06:27.360
<v Speaker 2>And they're smart and they're funny. So my fifteen minute

1062
01:06:27.360 --> 01:06:29.440
<v Speaker 2>fave is by the Lambrini Girls, and it is called

1063
01:06:29.480 --> 01:06:34.760
<v Speaker 2>no Homo Okay. And in the song, she's talking to

1064
01:06:35.320 --> 01:06:37.920
<v Speaker 2>the girl who she likes, and she's like, you know,

1065
01:06:38.440 --> 01:06:41.039
<v Speaker 2>I said, I liked your face, but I made sure.

1066
01:06:41.079 --> 01:06:43.880
<v Speaker 2>I said, no homo. I like the way you look.

1067
01:06:43.920 --> 01:06:46.000
<v Speaker 2>I said, no homo. And then that's like the first

1068
01:06:46.000 --> 01:06:47.719
<v Speaker 2>half the song. The second half of the song is

1069
01:06:48.400 --> 01:06:51.639
<v Speaker 2>fuck it. I like you, so Homo.

1070
01:06:54.000 --> 01:06:58.159
<v Speaker 1>On that note, so Homo, We're going out to the

01:08:39.159 --> 01:08:41.319
<v Speaker 2>Go baby, go through h.

1097
01:08:42.800 --> 01:08:46.520
<v Speaker 1>Let's start with Ludicrous who we mad at here? I'm

1098
01:08:46.560 --> 01:08:47.159
<v Speaker 1>not even sure.

1099
01:08:48.239 --> 01:08:48.479
<v Speaker 2>Well.

1100
01:08:49.199 --> 01:08:53.640
<v Speaker 1>I know that he had signed up, apparently for a

1101
01:08:53.720 --> 01:09:00.079
<v Speaker 1>MAGA leaning concert series. Yeah, after it drew criticism and jokes,

1102
01:09:00.439 --> 01:09:05.560
<v Speaker 1>uh huh, he pulled out of the festival. His team

1103
01:09:05.600 --> 01:09:07.800
<v Speaker 1>is claiming that he was never supposed to be included

1104
01:09:07.880 --> 01:09:08.399
<v Speaker 1>in the event.

1105
01:09:10.479 --> 01:09:11.079
<v Speaker 2>Uh huh.

1106
01:09:11.119 --> 01:09:11.479
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

1107
01:09:12.640 --> 01:09:16.319
<v Speaker 2>I don't know that I believe any of that gotcha

1108
01:09:16.760 --> 01:09:23.119
<v Speaker 2>because I just don't see him as being that swift anyway.

1109
01:09:23.560 --> 01:09:26.520
<v Speaker 2>It was Ludacris and Nelly, That's the other thing, because

1110
01:09:26.520 --> 01:09:31.760
<v Speaker 2>we already know that Nelly is magatool now?

1111
01:09:32.039 --> 01:09:32.560
<v Speaker 1>Oh really?

1112
01:09:32.680 --> 01:09:34.840
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, he performed at the inauguration.

1113
01:09:35.399 --> 01:09:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Okay bye, not that I who care?

1114
01:09:39.479 --> 01:09:43.640
<v Speaker 2>But Ludacris and Nelly were the two major rap artists

1115
01:09:43.640 --> 01:09:47.000
<v Speaker 2>scheduled to appear at the festival, alongside country and rock

1116
01:09:47.039 --> 01:09:50.079
<v Speaker 2>acts such as Trump supporter Kid Rock, who founded the

1117
01:09:50.079 --> 01:09:51.600
<v Speaker 2>festival in twenty twenty four.

1118
01:09:51.680 --> 01:09:54.640
<v Speaker 1>Oh good god, Okay, all you need to know, That's

1119
01:09:54.640 --> 01:09:55.479
<v Speaker 1>all you needed to know.

1120
01:09:57.119 --> 01:10:00.359
<v Speaker 2>So, Ludacris had been scheduled to appear at two of

1121
01:10:00.399 --> 01:10:05.880
<v Speaker 2>the series eight shows in Anderson, South Carolina, and Ocalla, Florida.

1122
01:10:07.000 --> 01:10:09.960
<v Speaker 2>As of Friday afternoon, Ludacris's name had been removed from

1123
01:10:10.000 --> 01:10:13.000
<v Speaker 2>the promotional material on the concert series website and in

1124
01:10:13.079 --> 01:10:16.960
<v Speaker 2>recent social media posts, while Nelly remained on the list

1125
01:10:16.960 --> 01:10:18.560
<v Speaker 2>of scheduled artists. Because he meant that.

1126
01:10:18.520 --> 01:10:23.720
<v Speaker 1>Shit, ah uh huh okay, Yeah, it looks like he

1127
01:10:24.319 --> 01:10:27.840
<v Speaker 1>saw a little heat and decided he didn't want that.

1128
01:10:27.840 --> 01:10:28.560
<v Speaker 2>That's what it was.

1129
01:10:28.720 --> 01:10:31.560
<v Speaker 1>Maybe he took a page out of Maybe he'd been

1130
01:10:31.600 --> 01:10:32.520
<v Speaker 1>watching Nicki Minajen.

1131
01:10:32.760 --> 01:10:39.399
<v Speaker 2>You know what, right, Isaac Hayes the Third said, y'all, Oh,

1132
01:10:39.520 --> 01:10:45.239
<v Speaker 2>Ludacris an apology, MM hmmm. Maybe because Ludacris's music sampled

1133
01:10:45.279 --> 01:10:47.039
<v Speaker 2>his father and so therefore that would be affecting his

1134
01:10:47.119 --> 01:10:50.439
<v Speaker 2>pocket directly, right and make it as loud as them

1135
01:10:50.520 --> 01:10:51.640
<v Speaker 2>videos y'all posted.

1136
01:10:52.880 --> 01:10:56.399
<v Speaker 1>I will not oh because he believes that it was

1137
01:10:56.439 --> 01:10:59.239
<v Speaker 1>all a mistake to begin with. Is that what he's saying?

1138
01:10:59.319 --> 01:11:01.800
<v Speaker 2>Okay, right, because someone said there was no mix up.

1139
01:11:01.800 --> 01:11:03.880
<v Speaker 2>He was getting dragged through these social media streets for

1140
01:11:04.039 --> 01:11:07.640
<v Speaker 2>being to perform at that festival. Nice try, Okay, that's

1141
01:11:07.680 --> 01:11:08.159
<v Speaker 2>what I fear.

1142
01:11:08.239 --> 01:11:10.000
<v Speaker 1>You don't believe it? Do you think he was gonna

1143
01:11:10.000 --> 01:11:10.319
<v Speaker 1>do it?

1144
01:11:10.920 --> 01:11:14.479
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I have only had one personal interaction with

1145
01:11:14.560 --> 01:11:19.000
<v Speaker 2>Ludacris in my entire life, and he was rude and dismissive.

1146
01:11:19.039 --> 01:11:21.720
<v Speaker 2>So I'm team fuck him anyway. Okay, So I could

1147
01:11:21.800 --> 01:11:23.359
<v Speaker 2>be I could be clouded by that.

1148
01:11:25.600 --> 01:11:29.560
<v Speaker 1>But yeah. There are yet more celebrities joining the Harry

<v Speaker 3>Right?

1193
01:14:00.600 --> 01:14:04.479
<v Speaker 1>It so tedious hearing about your oppression, right, m h yeah,

1194
01:14:04.479 --> 01:14:04.760
<v Speaker 1>I know.

1195
01:14:05.359 --> 01:14:06.880
<v Speaker 2>Just because I'm harming you didn't even want to hear

1196
01:14:06.920 --> 01:14:07.359
<v Speaker 2>about it.

1197
01:14:08.159 --> 01:14:11.279
<v Speaker 1>See Doctor Who's star Michelle Gomez as she had a

1198
01:14:11.319 --> 01:14:15.039
<v Speaker 1>response to backlash after she was cast as Professor mcgonagal.

1199
01:14:15.600 --> 01:14:18.399
<v Speaker 1>I hear you, and I understand why this is painful

1200
01:14:18.439 --> 01:14:18.920
<v Speaker 1>for many.

1201
01:14:19.000 --> 01:14:19.720
<v Speaker 2>I just don't care.

1202
01:14:20.079 --> 01:14:22.159
<v Speaker 1>I want to be clear that I stand with trans

1203
01:14:22.239 --> 01:14:25.359
<v Speaker 1>people and I support trans right no, fully and without

1204
01:14:25.399 --> 01:14:30.159
<v Speaker 1>hesitation lies. Okay, I now understand more clearly how deeply

1205
01:14:30.319 --> 01:14:34.560
<v Speaker 1>complicated and hurtful this association can feel. And I take

1206
01:14:34.600 --> 01:14:36.000
<v Speaker 1>that seriously. Did you quit?

1207
01:14:36.680 --> 01:14:37.000
<v Speaker 2>Thank you?

1208
01:14:37.079 --> 01:14:40.600
<v Speaker 1>Being an ally means listening even when it's uncomfortable, and

1209
01:14:40.640 --> 01:14:43.439
<v Speaker 1>taking accountability where it's needed. I'm committed to doing both.

1210
01:14:43.560 --> 01:14:49.039
<v Speaker 1>Did you quit, Hugh Laurie, Yeah, Hugh Laurie.

1211
01:14:49.720 --> 01:14:54.760
<v Speaker 2>James McAvoy, yep, yep.

1212
01:14:56.239 --> 01:14:59.680
<v Speaker 1>If if she didn't quit, those words are you know,

1213
01:15:00.199 --> 01:15:03.920
<v Speaker 1>words aren't just cheap, they're free people exactly. Yeah. Taking

1214
01:15:03.960 --> 01:15:06.680
<v Speaker 1>accountability means I will not be a part of this product.

1215
01:15:06.720 --> 01:15:08.840
<v Speaker 1>That's what it means. I'll take your money, even if

1216
01:15:08.880 --> 01:15:09.720
<v Speaker 1>it costs me money.

1217
01:15:09.840 --> 01:15:11.520
<v Speaker 2>Right, Yeah, I'll take your money, and I'll let you

1218
01:15:11.600 --> 01:15:16.720
<v Speaker 2>use my face, voice and likeness. But I don't mean

1219
01:15:16.760 --> 01:15:17.640
<v Speaker 2>it anyway.

1220
01:15:18.159 --> 01:15:20.479
<v Speaker 1>They've had it even more so. Yeah, those are the

1221
01:15:20.479 --> 01:15:24.359
<v Speaker 1>people like you can't tell me both things. JK. Rowling

1222
01:15:24.439 --> 01:15:27.800
<v Speaker 1>is a transpher. She is working against our existence period.

1223
01:15:27.880 --> 01:15:34.279
<v Speaker 1>Her language is dangerous and harmful, right, and she has

1224
01:15:34.319 --> 01:15:38.199
<v Speaker 1>the money to make it even more dangerous. And you

1225
01:15:38.359 --> 01:15:41.880
<v Speaker 1>can't say you stand with us and then do that shit.

1226
01:15:42.000 --> 01:15:44.960
<v Speaker 1>You can't do both right. Sorry, that's not how this works.

1227
01:15:45.399 --> 01:15:47.079
<v Speaker 1>If you're going to take a stand, take a stand.

1228
01:15:47.119 --> 01:15:49.159
<v Speaker 1>Otherwise your words are hollow.

1229
01:15:49.479 --> 01:15:53.640
<v Speaker 2>Right. If you appear in the plays, in the audiobooks

1230
01:15:53.720 --> 01:15:57.680
<v Speaker 2>and the video games and all of the properties for money,

1231
01:15:57.760 --> 01:16:02.279
<v Speaker 2>you are supporting trans ideology.

1232
01:16:02.439 --> 01:16:06.960
<v Speaker 1>Sharon Katz once again, who could ill afford it? Was

1233
01:16:07.039 --> 01:16:10.279
<v Speaker 1>headed to a transphobic festival. Didn't realize it. We brought

1234
01:16:10.279 --> 01:16:12.840
<v Speaker 1>it to our attention. She turned around and went home

1235
01:16:13.000 --> 01:16:16.319
<v Speaker 1>and went home. She didn't go right, cost her some

1236
01:16:16.359 --> 01:16:17.239
<v Speaker 1>money she needed.

1237
01:16:17.680 --> 01:16:17.880
<v Speaker 2>Hmm.

1238
01:16:18.279 --> 01:16:20.920
<v Speaker 1>But that's what you do when you are who you

1239
01:16:20.960 --> 01:16:25.640
<v Speaker 1>say you are, period. Otherwise it's just bullshit. So you know,

1240
01:16:25.680 --> 01:16:28.439
<v Speaker 1>that's where we live now. Sorry, but that's where we live.

1241
01:16:29.279 --> 01:16:33.399
<v Speaker 1>And this woman is using millions of dollars to harm

1242
01:16:33.439 --> 01:16:36.760
<v Speaker 1>innocent people and you're okay with it. If you're on

1243
01:16:36.800 --> 01:16:40.560
<v Speaker 1>that list, you are okay with it, period, full stop.

1244
01:16:41.079 --> 01:16:46.479
<v Speaker 1>That's that. So here's this is fun. The Trump administration

1245
01:16:46.720 --> 01:16:50.520
<v Speaker 1>sent out a letter, oh yeah, wiping out addiction and

1246
01:16:50.600 --> 01:16:54.359
<v Speaker 1>mental health grants, reading out a MPR. This fucked up

1247
01:16:54.399 --> 01:16:56.840
<v Speaker 1>your mood for like three days from two days ago. Well,

1248
01:16:56.920 --> 01:17:00.239
<v Speaker 1>you know, dosee did this doge wiped out by bunch

1249
01:17:00.239 --> 01:17:04.239
<v Speaker 1>of funds. Right, My grant was one of them, you know,

1250
01:17:04.359 --> 01:17:09.800
<v Speaker 1>the first program in the state actually helping trans people

1251
01:17:10.239 --> 01:17:12.880
<v Speaker 1>with addiction and mental health, you know, wiped out our

1252
01:17:12.920 --> 01:17:15.880
<v Speaker 1>funding and for so many other programs. It's almost like

1253
01:17:15.880 --> 01:17:20.159
<v Speaker 1>we don't have an overdose problem in this country. Dose

1254
01:17:20.279 --> 01:17:24.039
<v Speaker 1>did that, and that was the first round. And now

1255
01:17:26.760 --> 01:17:29.239
<v Speaker 1>they sent shockwaves through the US mental health and drug

1256
01:17:29.279 --> 01:17:34.520
<v Speaker 1>addiction system laid on Tuesday, sending hundreds of termination letters

1257
01:17:34.920 --> 01:17:40.039
<v Speaker 1>effective immediately for federal grants supporting health services. People were

1258
01:17:40.119 --> 01:17:44.039
<v Speaker 1>fired because of this. Yeah, okay, And then there's a

1259
01:17:44.119 --> 01:17:46.479
<v Speaker 1>note at the top of the article that says update.

1260
01:17:47.479 --> 01:17:53.119
<v Speaker 1>After NPR's reporting, the Trump administration reversed its decision and

1261
01:17:53.199 --> 01:17:56.119
<v Speaker 1>confirmed that sweeping cutst to mental health and addiction programs

1262
01:17:56.159 --> 01:18:00.279
<v Speaker 1>worth more than two billion dollars are being reversed. Hmm,

1263
01:18:01.119 --> 01:18:03.399
<v Speaker 1>I are we supposed to say thank you? Like? What

1264
01:18:03.439 --> 01:18:07.159
<v Speaker 1>the fuck? Copies of the letter that were sent to

1265
01:18:07.199 --> 01:18:12.119
<v Speaker 1>two different organizations reviewed by NPR's signal SAMSHA officials no

1266
01:18:12.159 --> 01:18:17.319
<v Speaker 1>longer believe the defunded programs aligned with the Trump administration's priorities.

1267
01:18:18.079 --> 01:18:20.960
<v Speaker 1>The letter set over two thousand grands where a total

1268
01:18:20.960 --> 01:18:23.880
<v Speaker 1>of more than two billion dollars were affected, coming on

1269
01:18:23.920 --> 01:18:29.800
<v Speaker 1>top of deep medicaid cuts, and the note just says, yeah,

1270
01:18:30.079 --> 01:18:34.359
<v Speaker 1>they're reversing that. This is just indicative of all the insanity.

1271
01:18:34.439 --> 01:18:37.079
<v Speaker 1>I guess we'll keep following this and see where it lands.

1272
01:18:37.680 --> 01:18:40.279
<v Speaker 1>But the fact that they would, you know, they would

1273
01:18:40.279 --> 01:18:42.199
<v Speaker 1>say this in the first place, tells me this is

1274
01:18:42.239 --> 01:18:45.680
<v Speaker 1>not over. This is meant to send a chill up

1275
01:18:45.720 --> 01:18:50.399
<v Speaker 1>the spine of anyone, you know, not falling in lockstep

1276
01:18:50.920 --> 01:18:55.640
<v Speaker 1>with their ideology over science right this.

1277
01:18:56.600 --> 01:19:01.439
<v Speaker 2>I was just watching a video on social media earlier

1278
01:19:01.479 --> 01:19:05.399
<v Speaker 2>today and they were talking about a section in the

1279
01:19:05.399 --> 01:19:12.640
<v Speaker 2>book nineteen eighty four when the government said that we're

1280
01:19:13.520 --> 01:19:18.159
<v Speaker 2>being generous and we're giving you an increase of chocolate

1281
01:19:18.239 --> 01:19:23.520
<v Speaker 2>rations to twenty percent, even though the week prior it

1282
01:19:23.640 --> 01:19:27.720
<v Speaker 2>was thirty percent. So we're saying we're giving an increase

1283
01:19:27.880 --> 01:19:30.399
<v Speaker 2>and it's twenty percent. It's less than what you had,

1284
01:19:30.680 --> 01:19:32.840
<v Speaker 2>but we want you to be grateful for what we're

1285
01:19:32.840 --> 01:19:35.239
<v Speaker 2>giving you. It's kind of giving that it's that we're

1286
01:19:35.279 --> 01:19:38.319
<v Speaker 2>taking it away, but then we're giving it back and

1287
01:19:38.359 --> 01:19:39.920
<v Speaker 2>we're putting you in all this turmoil.

1288
01:19:40.119 --> 01:19:42.960
<v Speaker 1>But be grateful that we're doing it right. And now

1289
01:19:43.000 --> 01:19:44.960
<v Speaker 1>maybe you'll listen to us when we say, don't use

1290
01:19:45.000 --> 01:19:47.920
<v Speaker 1>those words, don't treat those people right, and those people

1291
01:19:47.920 --> 01:19:50.000
<v Speaker 1>are allowed to die.

1292
01:19:50.119 --> 01:19:52.039
<v Speaker 2>And you don't know what foot you're hopping on.

1293
01:19:52.560 --> 01:19:55.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but stop comparing them to the Nazis, Charles, it

1294
01:19:55.800 --> 01:19:57.640
<v Speaker 1>upsets your KKK.

1295
01:20:05.079 --> 01:20:06.840
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I'm sorry.

1296
01:20:06.439 --> 01:20:06.760
<v Speaker 3>You know what?

1297
01:20:07.119 --> 01:20:15.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, okay, So that moving on. There's a Washington

1298
01:20:15.119 --> 01:20:18.319
<v Speaker 1>state pack and they are pushing for a transport span

1299
01:20:19.199 --> 01:20:24.840
<v Speaker 1>that includes genital inspections, and they say that they have

1300
01:20:25.720 --> 01:20:28.239
<v Speaker 1>received enough signatures to put this on the ballot.

1301
01:20:29.239 --> 01:20:31.520
<v Speaker 2>They really just want to look in people's pants, That's.

1302
01:20:31.359 --> 01:20:35.479
<v Speaker 1>Really they do. And it's a school specific transgender sports band,

1303
01:20:35.880 --> 01:20:39.000
<v Speaker 1>involves genital inspections, and you want to put it on

1304
01:20:39.039 --> 01:20:43.199
<v Speaker 1>the Washington state ballot. This is where they were heading

1305
01:20:43.239 --> 01:20:46.560
<v Speaker 1>all the time. These are pedophiles, These are these are

1306
01:20:46.720 --> 01:20:53.279
<v Speaker 1>you know, chilchildren's fists. And this is of course, you know,

1307
01:20:54.560 --> 01:20:58.239
<v Speaker 1>protecting the gals. I don't even want by singering every

1308
01:20:58.279 --> 01:21:00.399
<v Speaker 1>single one of them, how.

1309
01:21:00.359 --> 01:21:02.920
<v Speaker 2>Thorough these quote unquote inspections are going to be.

1310
01:21:04.720 --> 01:21:09.359
<v Speaker 1>They seek to amend Washington law and school district policies

1311
01:21:09.399 --> 01:21:13.800
<v Speaker 1>in order to bar trans girls from competing in girl sports.

1312
01:21:14.760 --> 01:21:19.279
<v Speaker 1>Uh huh. They currently permit students to play sports that

1313
01:21:19.359 --> 01:21:23.680
<v Speaker 1>align with their gender identity, as they should. Should this

1314
01:21:24.239 --> 01:21:30.439
<v Speaker 1>particular bill law ballot initiative go into effect, student athletes

1315
01:21:30.560 --> 01:21:34.039
<v Speaker 1>hoping to compete in girl sports would be required to

1316
01:21:34.199 --> 01:21:39.279
<v Speaker 1>medically verify their sects assigned at birth based on the

1317
01:21:39.279 --> 01:21:47.399
<v Speaker 1>student's reproductive anatomy, genetic makeup, or normal endo geniously produced

1318
01:21:47.720 --> 01:21:54.319
<v Speaker 1>testosterone levels. In other words, to play girl sports, student athletes,

1319
01:21:54.359 --> 01:21:57.439
<v Speaker 1>many of whom are miners, could be subjected to blood

1320
01:21:57.439 --> 01:22:02.600
<v Speaker 1>tests or invasive genital exams. This is where they want

1321
01:22:02.600 --> 01:22:04.640
<v Speaker 1>to go, This is what they want.

1322
01:22:04.760 --> 01:22:06.000
<v Speaker 2>It is fucking disgraceful.

1323
01:22:07.800 --> 01:22:11.640
<v Speaker 1>If their signatures are certified, Washington State legislators can either

1324
01:22:11.760 --> 01:22:16.279
<v Speaker 1>pass the initiatives as written, reject it, or propose an alternative.

1325
01:22:16.720 --> 01:22:19.279
<v Speaker 1>If they reject the initiative, it will appear on the

1326
01:22:19.319 --> 01:22:25.239
<v Speaker 1>state ballot during the twenty twenty six midterm on November three.

1327
01:22:25.359 --> 01:22:28.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm hoping it would lose in Washington. If they propose

1328
01:22:28.640 --> 01:22:32.960
<v Speaker 1>an alternative, both that and the alternative will appear on

1329
01:22:33.079 --> 01:22:37.119
<v Speaker 1>the Washington state ballot. Even if it does pass, it

1330
01:22:37.159 --> 01:22:41.039
<v Speaker 1>could still face significant challenges at the state level. No shit,

1331
01:22:41.880 --> 01:22:47.439
<v Speaker 1>Washington State's anti discrimination law explicitly prohibits discrimination on the

1332
01:22:47.520 --> 01:22:56.439
<v Speaker 1>basis of gender expression or identity. But this is yeah,

1333
01:22:56.600 --> 01:23:00.439
<v Speaker 1>this is the party of small government. They want into

1334
01:23:00.479 --> 01:23:03.239
<v Speaker 1>your children's pants to keep them safe.

1335
01:23:03.880 --> 01:23:05.319
<v Speaker 2>I can't even form an emotion.

1336
01:23:05.520 --> 01:23:08.039
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, this is what Republicans wants. They want to diddle

1337
01:23:08.079 --> 01:23:13.479
<v Speaker 1>your kids in order to protect women's sports. Right, Yeah,

1338
01:23:13.479 --> 01:23:13.880
<v Speaker 1>that's it.

1339
01:23:14.079 --> 01:23:16.520
<v Speaker 2>Literally, Oh my god, Yeah.

1340
01:23:16.199 --> 01:23:21.079
<v Speaker 1>That's what they want. I'm sorry, that's not even hyperple

1341
01:23:21.079 --> 01:23:25.039
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you know, okay.

1342
01:23:24.039 --> 01:23:27.119
<v Speaker 2>This reminds me of I saw a video of can.

1343
01:23:27.000 --> 01:23:29.760
<v Speaker 1>You imagine you've got to go for an internal so

1344
01:23:29.800 --> 01:23:33.960
<v Speaker 1>that you can play soccer? Right? Spread your legs girls? Right?

1345
01:23:35.119 --> 01:23:36.600
<v Speaker 1>What the ever living fuck?

1346
01:23:36.960 --> 01:23:38.439
<v Speaker 2>Right? Yep, there was.

1347
01:23:38.479 --> 01:23:40.960
<v Speaker 1>It was always going in this direction, and it doesn't

1348
01:23:41.000 --> 01:23:44.600
<v Speaker 1>stop at trans people. SI. Women been telling you this forever,

1349
01:23:44.800 --> 01:23:46.600
<v Speaker 1>and it's this women who are paying the price for

1350
01:23:46.680 --> 01:23:50.319
<v Speaker 1>this nonsense often that's going to continue.

1351
01:23:51.399 --> 01:23:55.359
<v Speaker 2>I saw a video there's this anti trans rally and

1352
01:23:55.600 --> 01:23:58.319
<v Speaker 2>the counter protesters were asking each of the going up

1353
01:23:58.319 --> 01:23:59.840
<v Speaker 2>to each of these people and asking them if they

1354
01:23:59.840 --> 01:24:03.840
<v Speaker 2>can name any five any five women athletes. None of

1355
01:24:03.840 --> 01:24:07.600
<v Speaker 2>them could, of course, not once, of course not, because

1356
01:24:07.680 --> 01:24:09.600
<v Speaker 2>that's not what the whole point is.

1357
01:24:10.000 --> 01:24:12.880
<v Speaker 1>Well, by the way, Amy Saidaris is a piece of shit.

1358
01:24:13.439 --> 01:24:17.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we didn't't have to go any further. She was

1359
01:24:18.199 --> 01:24:19.720
<v Speaker 2>this is on New Year's.

1360
01:24:19.760 --> 01:24:24.560
<v Speaker 1>On New Year's with Anderson Cooper and undercon.

1361
01:24:24.279 --> 01:24:25.439
<v Speaker 2>Messy as Andy Cohen.

1362
01:24:25.560 --> 01:24:29.000
<v Speaker 1>Uh huh, and she was one of their gats. And

1363
01:24:29.119 --> 01:24:31.760
<v Speaker 1>Cooper asked where is the best place to meet a

1364
01:24:31.800 --> 01:24:35.960
<v Speaker 1>man in twenty twenty second and Sidaris quickly fired back

1365
01:24:36.399 --> 01:24:38.119
<v Speaker 1>it might be in the women's bathroom.

1366
01:24:39.000 --> 01:24:41.479
<v Speaker 2>The joke didn't land, and they let it be awkward.

1367
01:24:41.560 --> 01:24:43.479
<v Speaker 2>They let her be awkward on cameras. So do you

1368
01:24:43.520 --> 01:24:44.039
<v Speaker 2>give them points?

1369
01:24:44.119 --> 01:24:48.560
<v Speaker 1>I appreciate that she can go fuck herself. Yeah, you know,

1370
01:24:49.119 --> 01:24:53.279
<v Speaker 1>CHMZ does not write about an apology. One should be forthcoming.

1371
01:24:53.479 --> 01:24:56.279
<v Speaker 1>She's not even known for political comedy.

1372
01:24:56.640 --> 01:24:58.680
<v Speaker 2>She asked me. She's not known for comedy comedy.

1373
01:24:58.960 --> 01:25:01.960
<v Speaker 1>She said, she's board of the LGBT community, but apparently

1374
01:25:02.000 --> 01:25:06.399
<v Speaker 1>that doesn't include the tea whatever. Fuck Amy Sedaris? Yeah,

1375
01:25:06.399 --> 01:25:11.800
<v Speaker 1>thanks for that, haha. Now is not the time, people, Nope,

1376
01:25:12.560 --> 01:25:16.079
<v Speaker 1>this one matters to me. The article was back in

1377
01:25:16.119 --> 01:25:19.479
<v Speaker 1>early December. We just didn't get to the last show.

1378
01:25:19.680 --> 01:25:22.880
<v Speaker 1>But a trans military worker barely eats her drinks to

1379
01:25:22.960 --> 01:25:28.119
<v Speaker 1>avoid work bathrooms. Yeah, this disguided me, and she is

1380
01:25:28.199 --> 01:25:31.880
<v Speaker 1>suing the Trump administration. It's a question of human dignity,

1381
01:25:32.039 --> 01:25:35.279
<v Speaker 1>is a question of equal treatment under the law, and

1382
01:25:35.319 --> 01:25:37.640
<v Speaker 1>I was not raised to back down from either of

1383
01:25:37.680 --> 01:25:41.840
<v Speaker 1>those things. She is a National Guard employee suing the

1384
01:25:41.880 --> 01:25:47.520
<v Speaker 1>Trump administration for discriminary bathroom policy that has significantly affected

1385
01:25:47.520 --> 01:25:50.119
<v Speaker 1>her quality of life while at work. I'm sure Leanne

1386
01:25:50.119 --> 01:25:54.359
<v Speaker 1>Withrow served in the Illinois National Guard for thirteen years

1387
01:25:54.399 --> 01:25:57.279
<v Speaker 1>and is now a civilian employee in the State Family

1388
01:25:57.359 --> 01:26:02.920
<v Speaker 1>Program's Office. Until the January order denying all federal recognition

1389
01:26:03.000 --> 01:26:05.920
<v Speaker 1>of trains people, she had never had a problem using

1390
01:26:05.920 --> 01:26:09.800
<v Speaker 1>women's restrooms at work. Now she barely eats or drinks

1391
01:26:09.840 --> 01:26:12.920
<v Speaker 1>all day to avoid having to use the facilities, which.

1392
01:26:12.760 --> 01:26:15.159
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure prevents her from being able to do her

1393
01:26:15.199 --> 01:26:15.760
<v Speaker 2>best work.

1394
01:26:15.880 --> 01:26:18.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, she told the Advocate. She often skips both breakfast

1395
01:26:18.720 --> 01:26:22.279
<v Speaker 1>and lunch and avoids water as much as possible, surviving

1396
01:26:22.319 --> 01:26:24.760
<v Speaker 1>her work days on a single granola bar or a

1397
01:26:24.760 --> 01:26:27.880
<v Speaker 1>spoonful of peanut butter. While there is a single user

1398
01:26:28.000 --> 01:26:30.760
<v Speaker 1>restroom in the building where she works, many of the

1399
01:26:30.800 --> 01:26:34.359
<v Speaker 1>other buildings she visits on a regular basis do not

1400
01:26:34.439 --> 01:26:37.760
<v Speaker 1>have one. I know that I have to operate within

1401
01:26:37.800 --> 01:26:41.000
<v Speaker 1>the bounds of the policies as they currently exist, and

1402
01:26:41.039 --> 01:26:43.720
<v Speaker 1>I intend to do my job well and fully, and

1403
01:26:43.800 --> 01:26:48.600
<v Speaker 1>so in order to do that, I'm making that sacrifice.

1404
01:26:48.720 --> 01:26:51.439
<v Speaker 1>After nothing came of filing complaints with both the Army

1405
01:26:51.520 --> 01:26:55.520
<v Speaker 1>National Guard Bureau Equal Opportunity Office and the Equal Employment

1406
01:26:55.560 --> 01:27:01.560
<v Speaker 1>Opportunity Commission the EEOC, she decided to do the Trump administration.

1407
01:27:01.680 --> 01:27:05.880
<v Speaker 1>She filed a class action lawsuit in November, arguing that

1408
01:27:05.920 --> 01:27:09.760
<v Speaker 1>the ban violates the Title seven of the Civil Rights Act.

1409
01:27:10.039 --> 01:27:13.479
<v Speaker 1>She came out as trans during the Obama administration after

1410
01:27:13.840 --> 01:27:17.439
<v Speaker 1>then Secretary of Defense Ash Carter ended the ban on

1411
01:27:17.560 --> 01:27:21.479
<v Speaker 1>openly serving in the military. As trans, she was grandfathered

1412
01:27:21.479 --> 01:27:25.279
<v Speaker 1>in during Trump's first term military ban, and now that

1413
01:27:25.319 --> 01:27:29.079
<v Speaker 1>she is a civilian employee, the current band does not

1414
01:27:29.159 --> 01:27:35.800
<v Speaker 1>apply to her. I mean, I would be using the

1415
01:27:35.880 --> 01:27:42.880
<v Speaker 1>ladies room, arrest me, right, that's me, you know this

1416
01:27:43.560 --> 01:27:46.880
<v Speaker 1>could then sue them for wrongful termination exactly. I mean

1417
01:27:46.920 --> 01:27:48.880
<v Speaker 1>that's what I would be saying for and back pay

1418
01:27:49.000 --> 01:27:52.159
<v Speaker 1>and all that other shit while I relaxed. She believes

1419
01:27:52.159 --> 01:27:55.479
<v Speaker 1>her job is an incredibly important one, taking care of

1420
01:27:55.520 --> 01:28:00.199
<v Speaker 1>soldiers and their families and veterans, and the mission is

1421
01:28:00.239 --> 01:28:02.279
<v Speaker 1>the thing that she would like to be focusing on.

1422
01:28:02.680 --> 01:28:05.399
<v Speaker 1>So it's frustrating to realize that I have to logistically

1423
01:28:05.439 --> 01:28:08.239
<v Speaker 1>plan out which bathroom am I going to be allowed

1424
01:28:08.279 --> 01:28:11.880
<v Speaker 1>to use today, where I'm at at a given time,

1425
01:28:12.079 --> 01:28:15.920
<v Speaker 1>instead of just focusing on that mission. She said. She

1426
01:28:15.960 --> 01:28:19.439
<v Speaker 1>also feels out of pressure to overperform so that no

1427
01:28:19.479 --> 01:28:22.520
<v Speaker 1>one can say trans people are not built for the work.

1428
01:28:23.279 --> 01:28:27.119
<v Speaker 1>I mean that I get. Despite the challenge of going

1429
01:28:27.119 --> 01:28:30.760
<v Speaker 1>to court, she feels optimistic because she believes we're doing

1430
01:28:30.800 --> 01:28:32.880
<v Speaker 1>the right thing. In the back of my mind, I

1431
01:28:33.000 --> 01:28:36.079
<v Speaker 1>like to believe in the end the good guys went well.

1432
01:28:36.479 --> 01:28:40.760
<v Speaker 1>I wish her luck. Hopefully there will be follow up

1433
01:28:40.760 --> 01:28:47.479
<v Speaker 1>to that story. Yeah, yeah, I am. I'll be damned. Yeah.

1434
01:28:47.479 --> 01:28:49.279
<v Speaker 2>I can't see you accepting any of that.

1435
01:28:50.159 --> 01:28:52.119
<v Speaker 1>No, I can end up they're going to fire me.

1436
01:28:52.239 --> 01:28:54.079
<v Speaker 1>They would fire me, I guess.

1437
01:28:54.039 --> 01:28:57.520
<v Speaker 2>And make sure they put that shit in writing right.

1438
01:28:58.079 --> 01:29:00.159
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you know, we did the same thing with

1439
01:29:00.399 --> 01:29:02.960
<v Speaker 1>Sarah McBride. Is apparently thound her voice a bit. I'll

1440
01:29:02.920 --> 01:29:05.960
<v Speaker 1>have to revisit that. But I've seen her actually realizing

1441
01:29:06.039 --> 01:29:09.800
<v Speaker 1>she's trans lately because she tried that bullshit, you know

1442
01:29:09.800 --> 01:29:12.279
<v Speaker 1>what I mean, like, oh, I comply, yeah, because you

1443
01:29:12.279 --> 01:29:16.399
<v Speaker 1>have a private bathroom, Yes, exactly, and then they just

1444
01:29:16.479 --> 01:29:19.000
<v Speaker 1>double down anyway, So I would not be complying with

1445
01:29:19.079 --> 01:29:22.800
<v Speaker 1>this bullshit because it's bullshit from the beginning. You know,

1446
01:29:22.880 --> 01:29:25.079
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna eat, I'm gonna drink. I would drink more.

1447
01:29:25.279 --> 01:29:29.119
<v Speaker 1>Are you're kidding? I would be so fucking hydrated, and

1448
01:29:29.319 --> 01:29:32.840
<v Speaker 1>go ahead, go ahead enforce it. What are you gonna do?

1449
01:29:33.239 --> 01:29:35.560
<v Speaker 2>Pay the maintenance crew over time because they'll have to

1450
01:29:35.560 --> 01:29:37.079
<v Speaker 2>be scrubbing the carpet three times.

1451
01:29:37.079 --> 01:29:38.960
<v Speaker 1>I seriously, what are you going to do? I'm going

1452
01:29:39.039 --> 01:29:42.520
<v Speaker 1>to use the bathroom that I use, and what are

1453
01:29:42.520 --> 01:29:46.640
<v Speaker 1>you gonna do? Right? Go ahead, come on, that's what

1454
01:29:46.760 --> 01:29:51.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't personally, I know you, Yeah, I said if

1455
01:29:51.039 --> 01:29:53.359
<v Speaker 1>I were, If I were McBride, I would have never

1456
01:29:53.479 --> 01:29:55.800
<v Speaker 1>complied and I would piss on the floor of Congress

1457
01:29:55.880 --> 01:29:57.720
<v Speaker 1>before they would tell me I can't use the lady

1458
01:29:57.760 --> 01:30:05.279
<v Speaker 1>dream And with making direct use the correct bands, absolutely absolutely,

1459
01:30:05.560 --> 01:30:08.199
<v Speaker 1>and again I'd be really fucking hydrated because I would

1460
01:30:08.239 --> 01:30:09.720
<v Speaker 1>do it several times a day if I had to.

1461
01:30:09.920 --> 01:30:13.560
<v Speaker 1>M hm, you know obviously until whatever.

1462
01:30:13.560 --> 01:30:17.039
<v Speaker 2>Clean up on al seven next, I'm going for al ten.

1463
01:30:18.000 --> 01:30:21.119
<v Speaker 1>So I do want to point out that Benedictine University

1464
01:30:21.159 --> 01:30:26.000
<v Speaker 1>in Illinois held a trance to have remembrance event and

1465
01:30:26.600 --> 01:30:29.479
<v Speaker 1>stood their ground that it was an important event until

1466
01:30:29.479 --> 01:30:33.640
<v Speaker 1>Fox News reported on it, right, and then basically fucked

1467
01:30:33.640 --> 01:30:36.560
<v Speaker 1>the tranis. I mean that that was, you know, just

1468
01:30:36.600 --> 01:30:39.359
<v Speaker 1>to summarize it, you know, as soon as there's a

1469
01:30:39.359 --> 01:30:45.880
<v Speaker 1>little heat, right who that who day who you mm hmm. Yeah.

1470
01:30:46.079 --> 01:30:49.199
<v Speaker 1>They initially doubled down on why tee door fit with

1471
01:30:49.279 --> 01:30:54.119
<v Speaker 1>their Catholic values and it does, it should, but Fox

1472
01:30:54.159 --> 01:30:56.800
<v Speaker 1>News picked it up. Fox News that has not even

1473
01:30:56.880 --> 01:31:00.720
<v Speaker 1>news right. They removed pages from their way site claiming

1474
01:31:00.760 --> 01:31:05.960
<v Speaker 1>to offer safe spaces for diverse communities. Yeah. What they

1475
01:31:05.960 --> 01:31:10.239
<v Speaker 1>have said was at Benedictine University, we believe that honoring

1476
01:31:10.279 --> 01:31:12.920
<v Speaker 1>the dignity of every person and praying for those who

1477
01:31:12.960 --> 01:31:17.920
<v Speaker 1>have died are fundamental expressions of our Catholic and Benedictine identity.

1478
01:31:19.319 --> 01:31:22.239
<v Speaker 1>Uh huh. The recent event was first and foremost of

1479
01:31:22.279 --> 01:31:24.760
<v Speaker 1>prayer service to honor lives lost. It was a solemn

1480
01:31:24.840 --> 01:31:28.520
<v Speaker 1>remembrance verted in Catholic social teaching and belief in the

1481
01:31:28.600 --> 01:31:33.439
<v Speaker 1>inherent and sacred dignity possessed by every person created in

1482
01:31:33.479 --> 01:31:34.399
<v Speaker 1>the image of God.

1483
01:31:34.640 --> 01:31:36.399
<v Speaker 2>That actually sounds lovely.

1484
01:31:36.199 --> 01:31:39.359
<v Speaker 1>Doesn't It sounds like something that should stay there. Sounds

1485
01:31:39.359 --> 01:31:42.800
<v Speaker 1>like a principle, right, it does. Well, it was only

1486
01:31:42.840 --> 01:31:48.119
<v Speaker 1>a principle until Fox News had something to say about it. Yeah,

1487
01:31:48.159 --> 01:31:54.279
<v Speaker 1>and of course Lives of Tech talk that grunt. Yeah,

1488
01:31:54.319 --> 01:31:58.159
<v Speaker 1>she stepped in and as with all things she touches,

1489
01:31:58.319 --> 01:31:59.279
<v Speaker 1>it turns to shit.

1490
01:31:59.600 --> 01:32:00.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1491
01:32:00.520 --> 01:32:06.199
<v Speaker 1>And they caved. Yep, yeah, they caved. They went from

1492
01:32:06.239 --> 01:32:09.439
<v Speaker 1>every life deserves a profound reverence to fuck you trainees.

1493
01:32:10.439 --> 01:32:11.279
<v Speaker 1>We're used to this.

1494
01:32:11.600 --> 01:32:14.680
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, I mean, historically this is on brand with

1495
01:32:14.760 --> 01:32:15.600
<v Speaker 2>the Catholic Church.

1496
01:32:16.800 --> 01:32:20.760
<v Speaker 1>It really is, it really is. They had a safe

1497
01:32:20.800 --> 01:32:24.119
<v Speaker 1>Spain's program, etcetera, etcetera, And of course Fox News went

1498
01:32:24.159 --> 01:32:30.039
<v Speaker 1>after them because anything good shouldn't exist, anything decent, anything right,

1499
01:32:31.039 --> 01:32:36.560
<v Speaker 1>so they removed web pages. I know, it's just all

1500
01:32:36.720 --> 01:32:40.079
<v Speaker 1>double speak. We remain committed to being a community where

1501
01:32:40.119 --> 01:32:43.720
<v Speaker 1>all feels safe, respected and welcome when uh huh, and

1502
01:32:43.760 --> 01:32:46.479
<v Speaker 1>where we can come together in prayer, especially in moments

1503
01:32:46.479 --> 01:32:52.840
<v Speaker 1>as are where except where there's any right wing push

1504
01:32:52.960 --> 01:32:57.239
<v Speaker 1>back at all, we have to treat it like it

1505
01:32:57.279 --> 01:33:04.520
<v Speaker 1>isn't hate speech right, Okay, they stand for nothing one brand.

1506
01:33:05.239 --> 01:33:08.159
<v Speaker 1>I said it, yeah, and just to point out that

1507
01:33:09.720 --> 01:33:12.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't give a fuck what your political affiliation is.

1508
01:33:13.239 --> 01:33:21.640
<v Speaker 1>This jackass Democratic US Senate candidate A Representative Ruben Gallego,

1509
01:33:21.760 --> 01:33:27.079
<v Speaker 1>a Democrat from Arizona. Democratic Senator Ruben Gallego, there were

1510
01:33:27.159 --> 01:33:30.640
<v Speaker 1>texts between him and an unnamed friend of twenty years

1511
01:33:31.199 --> 01:33:35.600
<v Speaker 1>discussing public perception of the Democratic Party and the future

1512
01:33:35.600 --> 01:33:38.600
<v Speaker 1>of the party, and the friend wrote, this is how

1513
01:33:38.600 --> 01:33:42.319
<v Speaker 1>the world views many Democrats and shared a meme of

1514
01:33:42.640 --> 01:33:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Representative Rosa Delaro, a Democrat from Connecticut who often has

1515
01:33:47.880 --> 01:33:52.439
<v Speaker 1>a short, purple dyed hair, which had superimposed text reading

1516
01:33:52.840 --> 01:33:58.920
<v Speaker 1>if a rectile dysfunction had a face wow, and he

1517
01:33:59.039 --> 01:34:04.159
<v Speaker 1>replied they aren't, and later wrote we look like the

1518
01:34:04.319 --> 01:34:08.920
<v Speaker 1>not fun party, always telling and correcting people, not allowing

1519
01:34:09.000 --> 01:34:13.880
<v Speaker 1>men to be men, women to be hot. We used

1520
01:34:13.920 --> 01:34:18.199
<v Speaker 1>to be the party of drugs and rock and roll.

1521
01:34:18.600 --> 01:34:22.239
<v Speaker 1>Now DEMN women look like damn men and DEMN men

1522
01:34:22.399 --> 01:34:26.319
<v Speaker 1>look like women. He didn't deny the messages, but he

1523
01:34:26.359 --> 01:34:29.800
<v Speaker 1>called it heartbreaking, but his friend shared them.

1524
01:34:30.159 --> 01:34:32.439
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I'm not sorry, I said it. I'm sorry you

1525
01:34:32.479 --> 01:34:32.880
<v Speaker 2>know about it.

1526
01:34:32.880 --> 01:34:35.039
<v Speaker 1>No, no, no, he called the messages a reflection of

1527
01:34:35.039 --> 01:34:38.159
<v Speaker 1>what I've been saying the whole time, adding, I've been

1528
01:34:38.239 --> 01:34:40.600
<v Speaker 1>very clear about where I think the party needs to be.

1529
01:34:41.399 --> 01:34:43.000
<v Speaker 1>I do think we have to be an open and

1530
01:34:43.000 --> 01:34:46.960
<v Speaker 1>bigger tent party. Uh huh. So this is just a

1531
01:34:47.000 --> 01:34:50.680
<v Speaker 1>reflection of what I think I've said. What that the

1532
01:34:50.720 --> 01:34:55.880
<v Speaker 1>party was not as inclusive as it should be. What

1533
01:34:55.880 --> 01:34:57.960
<v Speaker 1>we're not allowing the hot girls in? Is that what?

1534
01:34:58.119 --> 01:35:00.399
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sorry I said it. I'm sorry you know

1535
01:35:00.520 --> 01:35:01.000
<v Speaker 2>about it.

1536
01:35:01.119 --> 01:35:04.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. And then this is a Democrat who resorts to

1537
01:35:04.800 --> 01:35:11.279
<v Speaker 1>word salad. Dude, we see who you are. Yeah, it's

1538
01:35:11.359 --> 01:35:16.119
<v Speaker 1>clear here. He has previously said he was concerned about

1539
01:35:16.119 --> 01:35:20.359
<v Speaker 1>transgender athletes competing in girls and women's sports, telling trans girls,

1540
01:35:20.439 --> 01:35:22.319
<v Speaker 1>we love you, we want you to be part of

1541
01:35:22.319 --> 01:35:25.000
<v Speaker 1>our community, but this is just the one place you

1542
01:35:25.159 --> 01:35:25.880
<v Speaker 1>can't play.

1543
01:35:27.399 --> 01:35:31.439
<v Speaker 2>So it says that he's a pro LGBTQ plus allies.

1544
01:35:31.520 --> 01:35:35.760
<v Speaker 2>So I guess only if you are straight presenting, white

1545
01:35:35.840 --> 01:35:41.079
<v Speaker 2>gay man and a trans woman he wants to fuck,

1546
01:35:41.159 --> 01:35:41.600
<v Speaker 2>I guess.

1547
01:35:41.640 --> 01:35:45.560
<v Speaker 1>Aaron Reid said his messages do not reflect a genuine

1548
01:35:45.600 --> 01:35:49.399
<v Speaker 1>concern for the challenges facing American men, nor do they

1549
01:35:49.439 --> 01:35:52.399
<v Speaker 1>offer a blueprint for Democrats to win by mirroring the

1550
01:35:52.479 --> 01:35:58.039
<v Speaker 1>rights hostility towards gender variants. They reflect the same tired,

1551
01:35:58.680 --> 01:36:03.199
<v Speaker 1>corrosive rhetoric we have come to expect from the far right,

1552
01:36:03.600 --> 01:36:07.319
<v Speaker 1>and we should not accept it simply because it's coming

1553
01:36:07.640 --> 01:36:12.640
<v Speaker 1>from within our own coalition. Here here, I hope he's primaried,

1554
01:36:12.680 --> 01:36:16.319
<v Speaker 1>and I hope his political career ends. You really, we

1555
01:36:16.359 --> 01:36:18.800
<v Speaker 1>are seeing in New York that you can support queer

1556
01:36:18.800 --> 01:36:23.600
<v Speaker 1>and trans people and get elected and thrive. And right now,

1557
01:36:23.720 --> 01:36:28.800
<v Speaker 1>yeah it really, I'm sorry, I don't he's he's a Dino.

1558
01:36:28.840 --> 01:36:34.239
<v Speaker 1>I go, what you know? Right right? There's too many

1559
01:36:34.319 --> 01:36:39.880
<v Speaker 1>of these within the Democratic Party, and you know it's

1560
01:36:39.920 --> 01:36:43.560
<v Speaker 1>becoming too stark. If you can't figure out why it's

1561
01:36:43.600 --> 01:36:47.640
<v Speaker 1>important to support marginalized people, even if you don't really

1562
01:36:47.720 --> 01:36:51.920
<v Speaker 1>understand them. The Republican Party has their door wide open

1563
01:36:52.000 --> 01:36:57.359
<v Speaker 1>for you, and that sounds like where you belong. The

1564
01:36:57.439 --> 01:37:02.279
<v Speaker 1>DOJ ordered prison inspectors to stop concerner ering LGBTQ safety standards.

1565
01:37:02.439 --> 01:37:10.000
<v Speaker 1>That happened yep, this was NPR again early December. Stop

1566
01:37:10.039 --> 01:37:15.000
<v Speaker 1>evaluating prisons in jails using standards designed to protect transgender, intersex,

1567
01:37:15.039 --> 01:37:17.760
<v Speaker 1>and gender non conforming people from sexual violence.

1568
01:37:19.279 --> 01:37:20.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because that's a bad thing.

1569
01:37:21.199 --> 01:37:27.119
<v Speaker 1>This population is uniquely vulnerable to attacks, while incarcerated advocates

1570
01:37:27.119 --> 01:37:32.520
<v Speaker 1>say the change will put such people in even more danger.

1571
01:37:32.399 --> 01:37:34.239
<v Speaker 2>Yep, and it will. Oh yeah.

1572
01:37:35.359 --> 01:37:39.920
<v Speaker 1>The DJ is now revising federal standards related to the

1573
01:37:39.960 --> 01:37:45.000
<v Speaker 1>two thousand and three Prison Rape Elimination Act in order

1574
01:37:45.039 --> 01:37:50.760
<v Speaker 1>to align with President Trump's Executive Order on gender ideology extremism. Yes,

1575
01:37:50.840 --> 01:38:00.399
<v Speaker 1>wanting to live is extreme? How lgy? Yeah. Yeah. The

1576
01:38:00.439 --> 01:38:05.680
<v Speaker 1>detention centers will undergo audits, and they will no longer

1577
01:38:05.760 --> 01:38:12.279
<v Speaker 1>be inspected using the standards specifically designed to keep us saved.

1578
01:38:12.640 --> 01:38:18.239
<v Speaker 1>The facilities include federal prisons, state prisons and jails, juvenile

1579
01:38:18.279 --> 01:38:24.880
<v Speaker 1>detention centers, and immigration detention centers. These inspectors, referred to

1580
01:38:24.920 --> 01:38:27.880
<v Speaker 1>as auditors, are not employed by the DOJ, but are

1581
01:38:27.960 --> 01:38:32.279
<v Speaker 1>hired by corrections agencies or by individual facilities. The DJ

1582
01:38:32.479 --> 01:38:36.359
<v Speaker 1>certifies the auditors and can decertify them. Of course, they

1583
01:38:36.399 --> 01:38:41.079
<v Speaker 1>did not respond to MPR's request for comment on the

1584
01:38:41.199 --> 01:38:45.640
<v Speaker 1>memo outlining all of this. Right, just the latest removal

1585
01:38:45.760 --> 01:38:53.000
<v Speaker 1>of protections, legal protections for trans people. Yeah, yeah, this

1586
01:38:53.079 --> 01:39:03.000
<v Speaker 1>is inhumane, literally in humane. Chile democrats aren't angry enough,

1587
01:39:03.600 --> 01:39:06.199
<v Speaker 1>but you know for real, it's got to trickle down

1588
01:39:06.239 --> 01:39:09.960
<v Speaker 1>to them. Until then Chick fil A for dinner, right exactly. Well,

1589
01:39:10.079 --> 01:39:13.760
<v Speaker 1>let's see what else do we have here. I do

1590
01:39:13.920 --> 01:39:17.920
<v Speaker 1>want to touch on the fact because we need to.

1591
01:39:18.720 --> 01:39:22.479
<v Speaker 1>Reading from the advocate, some takeaways from the Supreme Court

1592
01:39:22.640 --> 01:39:26.279
<v Speaker 1>arguments about bands on trans women and girls in sports. Okay,

1593
01:39:26.960 --> 01:39:29.760
<v Speaker 1>On Tuesday, they heard nearly four hours of arguments in

1594
01:39:29.800 --> 01:39:34.600
<v Speaker 1>two cases Little v. Heacocks from Idaho and West Virginia v.

1595
01:39:35.039 --> 01:39:38.720
<v Speaker 1>B p J that could define the future of transgender

1596
01:39:38.760 --> 01:39:43.439
<v Speaker 1>women and girls participation in school sports nationwide. A large

1597
01:39:43.439 --> 01:39:46.880
<v Speaker 1>and raucous crowd formed outside the Court, where dueling groups

1598
01:39:46.920 --> 01:39:53.880
<v Speaker 1>held rallies. Supporters of transgender people appeared to outnumber detractors. Yeah.

1599
01:39:54.319 --> 01:39:57.920
<v Speaker 1>Some traveled from across the country for the Fight for

1600
01:39:58.039 --> 01:40:03.720
<v Speaker 1>the t In Team rally organized by Lambda Legal, the ACLU,

1601
01:40:03.960 --> 01:40:08.279
<v Speaker 1>and Legal Voice, which featured transgender youth athletes, parents, members

1602
01:40:08.279 --> 01:40:11.920
<v Speaker 1>of Congress, and civil rights leaders calling for equal access

1603
01:40:11.960 --> 01:40:17.680
<v Speaker 1>to school sports. Congressional Equity Caucus Chair Representative Mark Tacano

1604
01:40:17.800 --> 01:40:23.079
<v Speaker 1>of California address demonstrators and sharply criticized Education Secretary Linda McMahon,

1605
01:40:23.319 --> 01:40:26.920
<v Speaker 1>who was speaking simultaneously at a nearby anti trans rally.

1606
01:40:27.439 --> 01:40:32.159
<v Speaker 1>If trans employees exist, surely trans teenagers exist. If trans

1607
01:40:32.239 --> 01:40:35.720
<v Speaker 1>teenagers exist, surely trans children exist.

1608
01:40:36.239 --> 01:40:37.079
<v Speaker 2>Bam.

1609
01:40:37.319 --> 01:40:40.439
<v Speaker 1>If trans employees have a right not to be discriminated

1610
01:40:40.479 --> 01:40:43.840
<v Speaker 1>against in the workplace, then trans kids have a right

1611
01:40:44.560 --> 01:40:47.800
<v Speaker 1>to a free and equal education in school. Here here.

1612
01:40:48.439 --> 01:40:51.079
<v Speaker 1>In twenty twenty, the Supreme Court ruled in Bostock that

1613
01:40:51.199 --> 01:40:56.239
<v Speaker 1>discrimination against gayer transgender people in the workplace is unconstitutional

1614
01:40:56.560 --> 01:41:00.720
<v Speaker 1>because it is inside. The courtroom was filled to with

1615
01:41:00.840 --> 01:41:06.399
<v Speaker 1>noticeably more men than women in attendance. Fuck Chase Strange.

1616
01:41:06.520 --> 01:41:09.600
<v Speaker 1>Oh of course was there on our behalf God, bless

1617
01:41:09.960 --> 01:41:15.159
<v Speaker 1>Chase ye Stranger. Let's say boys and girls teams are legal.

1618
01:41:15.600 --> 01:41:18.319
<v Speaker 1>The real fight is about whether trans girls can ever

1619
01:41:18.520 --> 01:41:22.960
<v Speaker 1>be treated like other girls for sports. The states say

1620
01:41:23.159 --> 01:41:26.159
<v Speaker 1>they are not required to make case by case exceptions.

1621
01:41:27.680 --> 01:41:32.560
<v Speaker 1>The bands operate only in one direction, and the state

1622
01:41:32.600 --> 01:41:36.680
<v Speaker 1>admitted it, which is discrimination. Sonya said on my oar

1623
01:41:37.039 --> 01:41:39.760
<v Speaker 1>said the bands look like sex discrimination, and she is

1624
01:41:39.840 --> 01:41:45.000
<v Speaker 1>absolutely correct. The Court has not decided whether trans people

1625
01:41:45.039 --> 01:41:49.840
<v Speaker 1>deserve stronger constitutional protection. We just want equal thank you,

1626
01:41:50.840 --> 01:41:53.960
<v Speaker 1>and equal protection. Would let these kids play, that would

1627
01:41:53.960 --> 01:41:58.880
<v Speaker 1>be equal protection. The Court may rule narrowly, and that

1628
01:41:58.880 --> 01:42:02.159
<v Speaker 1>that's I think what is likely to happen, you know,

1629
01:42:02.199 --> 01:42:06.880
<v Speaker 1>where they rule very specifically. So even if the court

1630
01:42:06.920 --> 01:42:08.720
<v Speaker 1>sides with the States, the ruling could be.

1631
01:42:08.760 --> 01:42:13.560
<v Speaker 2>Narrow equal rights, not special, not more now.

1632
01:42:13.720 --> 01:42:18.479
<v Speaker 1>But in the same way that we do protect women

1633
01:42:19.920 --> 01:42:23.319
<v Speaker 1>based on their gender, we need to protect trans people. Yeah,

1634
01:42:23.880 --> 01:42:27.640
<v Speaker 1>based on their gender. Yeah, it's you know, it's sex.

1635
01:42:27.680 --> 01:42:32.039
<v Speaker 1>Just I'm not preaching to the goire beating a dead

1636
01:42:32.079 --> 01:42:35.640
<v Speaker 1>horse and all of that. It happened in the Supreme Court.

1637
01:42:35.680 --> 01:42:39.239
<v Speaker 1>I don't know when we're expecting the ruling to come down,

1638
01:42:39.880 --> 01:42:42.840
<v Speaker 1>and you know, we'll see what it does. We will

1639
01:42:42.840 --> 01:42:45.359
<v Speaker 1>see what it does. You know, we had the chance

1640
01:42:45.439 --> 01:42:48.479
<v Speaker 1>in twenty sixteen to elect Hillary Clinton and we would

1641
01:42:48.520 --> 01:42:51.000
<v Speaker 1>be living an entirely different reality.

1642
01:42:51.359 --> 01:42:51.600
<v Speaker 2>Yep.

1643
01:42:52.199 --> 01:42:57.640
<v Speaker 1>But we don't trust women, right, and then they said

1644
01:42:57.640 --> 01:42:59.520
<v Speaker 1>not that woman, and then they had the chance to

1645
01:43:00.920 --> 01:43:02.560
<v Speaker 1>I liked another one. I didn't trust that.

1646
01:43:04.279 --> 01:43:10.199
<v Speaker 2>Yeah anyway, And I bet you're the ones that are

1647
01:43:10.199 --> 01:43:11.600
<v Speaker 2>in charge. They don't trust either.

1648
01:43:11.640 --> 01:43:14.359
<v Speaker 1>So no, they don't, they really don't.

1649
01:43:14.840 --> 01:43:16.960
<v Speaker 2>So what are we really talking about?

1650
01:43:18.159 --> 01:43:20.800
<v Speaker 1>You know what we're talking about? Oh, I know, we're

1651
01:43:20.800 --> 01:43:25.359
<v Speaker 1>gonna take another break. Yeah, let's do that and grub

1652
01:43:25.399 --> 01:43:29.079
<v Speaker 1>our tongues and gargle and come back with some pop culture. Yeah,

1653
01:43:29.159 --> 01:43:50.399
<v Speaker 1>let's do that, and we're back.

1654
01:43:50.840 --> 01:43:58.199
<v Speaker 2>We're back. CoA CoA coauuk atka. I put this here

1655
01:43:59.159 --> 01:44:06.720
<v Speaker 2>because it just seemed appropriate. Pantone names its color of

1656
01:44:06.760 --> 01:44:13.039
<v Speaker 2>the Year for twenty twenty six white. Yeah, cloud Dancer

1657
01:44:13.199 --> 01:44:16.079
<v Speaker 2>is the actual name of the color white, but as white,

1658
01:44:16.920 --> 01:44:19.399
<v Speaker 2>that's I'm just gonna leave it there. Color of the

1659
01:44:19.479 --> 01:44:22.840
<v Speaker 2>Year for twenty twenty six is white. Is white, which

1660
01:44:22.880 --> 01:44:24.760
<v Speaker 2>is interesting because I thought that the color of the

1661
01:44:24.840 --> 01:44:28.880
<v Speaker 2>Year for twenty twenty five was white, and twenty twenty

1662
01:44:28.880 --> 01:44:33.640
<v Speaker 2>four in nineteen seventy three and eighteen oh two.

1663
01:44:35.479 --> 01:44:40.840
<v Speaker 1>But okay, yep, sure, right, it's a different shade. Ah,

1664
01:44:42.960 --> 01:44:47.640
<v Speaker 1>if not optically as bright as the last one or something. Yeah,

1665
01:44:47.680 --> 01:44:49.840
<v Speaker 1>that's where we are. That's where we are.

1666
01:44:50.039 --> 01:44:52.760
<v Speaker 2>Not as bright as the last one color.

1667
01:44:52.640 --> 01:44:59.279
<v Speaker 1>And you chose that one. Yeah, okay, this was just funny.

1668
01:44:59.279 --> 01:45:03.880
<v Speaker 1>So we watched we did watch the documentary about Chris Brown.

1669
01:45:03.680 --> 01:45:05.560
<v Speaker 2>Yes, a History of Violence. I believe it was.

1670
01:45:05.520 --> 01:45:09.359
<v Speaker 1>Called uh huh. He filed a five hundred million dollar

1671
01:45:09.399 --> 01:45:17.199
<v Speaker 1>defamation lawsuit. Judge dismissed it. Well, yeah, that it's only

1672
01:45:17.279 --> 01:45:20.720
<v Speaker 1>defamation if they're lying, jack ass, right like this, they're

1673
01:45:20.720 --> 01:45:24.920
<v Speaker 1>just telling they just reported on things. We know right

1674
01:45:26.119 --> 01:45:27.880
<v Speaker 1>where you want it, he did.

1675
01:45:28.000 --> 01:45:31.199
<v Speaker 2>They went by like police reports and eyewitness reports.

1676
01:45:31.399 --> 01:45:33.479
<v Speaker 1>But you put it all in that one place and

1677
01:45:33.680 --> 01:45:36.760
<v Speaker 1>it didn't make me look what it was like.

1678
01:45:36.760 --> 01:45:38.479
<v Speaker 2>Well, when you put it all together like that.

1679
01:45:38.520 --> 01:45:47.920
<v Speaker 1>It sounds bad, baby, baby, you look like an idiot

1680
01:45:48.239 --> 01:46:02.319
<v Speaker 1>filing a defamation again once again. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

1681
01:45:58.640 --> 01:46:02.239
<v Speaker 2>That's really all there is to that.

1682
01:46:02.239 --> 01:46:05.279
<v Speaker 1>That's all we got, truly, that's all we got. Yeah.

1683
01:46:05.359 --> 01:46:09.439
<v Speaker 1>The judge went here, get the fuck out of here.

1684
01:46:10.520 --> 01:46:11.439
<v Speaker 1>This is all you.

1685
01:46:12.279 --> 01:46:18.680
<v Speaker 2>Oh so this just this is a current conversation. Basically

1686
01:46:18.680 --> 01:46:22.079
<v Speaker 2>the fact that there's a new season of Drag Race

1687
01:46:22.239 --> 01:46:25.560
<v Speaker 2>and we're like two or three episodes in and like

1688
01:46:26.319 --> 01:46:31.079
<v Speaker 2>nobody can really watch it because it's on MTV. First

1689
01:46:31.079 --> 01:46:35.800
<v Speaker 2>of all, they change networks every season, and so they're

1690
01:46:35.800 --> 01:46:40.000
<v Speaker 2>on MTV. Nobody has cable and you can use a

1691
01:46:40.039 --> 01:46:43.119
<v Speaker 2>standalone MTV app if you go through a cable provider.

1692
01:46:44.840 --> 01:46:49.039
<v Speaker 2>And so you know, no one's paying for cable these

1693
01:46:49.119 --> 01:46:51.680
<v Speaker 2>days because cable ain't cheap.

1694
01:46:52.680 --> 01:46:55.800
<v Speaker 1>Did I tell you? Because we had a day without

1695
01:46:55.840 --> 01:47:00.520
<v Speaker 1>phone service. Rights of the day Verizon was down. We all,

1696
01:47:00.800 --> 01:47:02.640
<v Speaker 1>you know, kind of set us this up, you know,

1697
01:47:03.119 --> 01:47:06.960
<v Speaker 1>PU for martial things to come. Yeah, and so Verizon

1698
01:47:07.079 --> 01:47:09.920
<v Speaker 1>Internet was apparently also down. We had we had WiFi,

1699
01:47:09.960 --> 01:47:10.840
<v Speaker 1>but many did not.

1700
01:47:11.119 --> 01:47:12.199
<v Speaker 2>Because we have a different company.

1701
01:47:12.239 --> 01:47:14.600
<v Speaker 1>They sent us twenty dollars. They give us a twenty

1702
01:47:14.640 --> 01:47:18.119
<v Speaker 1>dollars credit to make up for the day. I mean,

1703
01:47:18.159 --> 01:47:18.640
<v Speaker 1>I'll take it.

1704
01:47:18.840 --> 01:47:20.479
<v Speaker 2>I knew they were going to send out a credit,

1705
01:47:20.479 --> 01:47:21.359
<v Speaker 2>but that's all we got.

1706
01:47:21.479 --> 01:47:24.239
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, twenty bucks. I mean it was not even a

1707
01:47:24.279 --> 01:47:27.880
<v Speaker 1>whole day. So but anyway, Yeah, the world is a

1708
01:47:27.920 --> 01:47:32.720
<v Speaker 1>different place for now, right, but we should not have

1709
01:47:32.840 --> 01:47:35.920
<v Speaker 1>day long outages. Too many people were lying, you know

1710
01:47:36.000 --> 01:47:39.079
<v Speaker 1>now we we run shit on Blue Chooth. We run

1711
01:47:39.159 --> 01:47:40.359
<v Speaker 1>shit on Blue Chooth.

1712
01:47:40.439 --> 01:47:44.279
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and Wi Fi and.

1713
01:47:44.319 --> 01:47:48.239
<v Speaker 1>Wi Fi and right yeah, yeah.

1714
01:47:48.279 --> 01:47:51.439
<v Speaker 2>How many millions of dollars were lost because folks couldn't

1715
01:47:51.880 --> 01:47:54.319
<v Speaker 2>make a phone call or take a phone call transaction?

1716
01:47:54.439 --> 01:47:56.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, but it was fucked up because a

1717
01:47:56.000 --> 01:47:57.760
<v Speaker 1>couple of people were trying to call me and I couldn't.

1718
01:47:57.760 --> 01:48:00.439
<v Speaker 1>They couldn't come. They I couldn't get a phone and

1719
01:48:00.439 --> 01:48:03.239
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't make a phone call, right yeah, for hours.

1720
01:48:04.760 --> 01:48:06.720
<v Speaker 2>Luckily it was it was fixed by the time I

1721
01:48:06.760 --> 01:48:08.760
<v Speaker 2>had to go to work because that would have sucked.

1722
01:48:08.720 --> 01:48:13.800
<v Speaker 1>Right, right, but it was most of the day. And yeah,

1723
01:48:13.960 --> 01:48:17.079
<v Speaker 1>so I don't know why I connected those two. But

1724
01:48:17.119 --> 01:48:19.520
<v Speaker 1>you were talking about streaming, man, people don't you know

1725
01:48:19.720 --> 01:48:22.279
<v Speaker 1>people don't have land lines anymore? Is where I was

1726
01:48:22.319 --> 01:48:25.239
<v Speaker 1>going the other place I was going plus twenty bucks off.

1727
01:48:25.479 --> 01:48:30.520
<v Speaker 1>But people don't, like most people have given up the landline, right.

1728
01:48:30.640 --> 01:48:33.079
<v Speaker 1>We still know some who were like, Noop, I'm keeping

1729
01:48:33.119 --> 01:48:34.239
<v Speaker 1>that because you never know.

1730
01:48:34.920 --> 01:48:35.880
<v Speaker 2>It's kind of smart.

1731
01:48:35.960 --> 01:48:40.840
<v Speaker 1>Actually maybe yeah, because we couldn't you could make a

1732
01:48:40.920 --> 01:48:41.800
<v Speaker 1>nine to one one call.

1733
01:48:41.880 --> 01:48:43.960
<v Speaker 2>I think, yeah, that's the only thing we could make

1734
01:48:43.960 --> 01:48:44.520
<v Speaker 2>a nine one.

1735
01:48:44.520 --> 01:48:47.920
<v Speaker 1>Call, right, because I never saw where it says how

1736
01:48:47.960 --> 01:48:50.399
<v Speaker 1>many bars you have? This was the first time in

1737
01:48:50.439 --> 01:48:53.159
<v Speaker 1>the history of having a cellular phone where it's at

1738
01:48:53.319 --> 01:48:57.960
<v Speaker 1>SS for me, right, And you said that means you

1739
01:48:58.000 --> 01:48:59.720
<v Speaker 1>can call name one one in that thing. Right.

1740
01:49:00.000 --> 01:49:01.720
<v Speaker 2>The only reason I know that is because I have

1741
01:49:01.800 --> 01:49:05.439
<v Speaker 2>that second iPhone that I got because I'm a good person,

1742
01:49:06.239 --> 01:49:09.199
<v Speaker 2>and it doesn't have it's not attached to any kind

1743
01:49:09.239 --> 01:49:12.439
<v Speaker 2>of carrier network, so it's always says SOS right.

1744
01:49:12.640 --> 01:49:16.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Okay, So that was a huge walking around the block.

1745
01:49:16.960 --> 01:49:20.319
<v Speaker 1>You just didn't want to talk about it. Drag Apparently

1746
01:49:20.359 --> 01:49:23.199
<v Speaker 1>you can't see they're streaming unless you have cable, right,

1747
01:49:23.399 --> 01:49:26.720
<v Speaker 1>that's a deal. Yeah, and like you know, somebody will

1748
01:49:26.720 --> 01:49:27.920
<v Speaker 1>put it on YouTube.

1749
01:49:27.520 --> 01:49:30.560
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I mean, well when the whole season is over,

1750
01:49:31.439 --> 01:49:35.880
<v Speaker 2>it'll show up on Paramount Plus. But not until the

1751
01:49:35.880 --> 01:49:39.119
<v Speaker 2>whole season is over, you know. And like cable is

1752
01:49:39.159 --> 01:49:42.560
<v Speaker 2>not is not cheap, Like you can get live cable

1753
01:49:42.600 --> 01:49:45.640
<v Speaker 2>through Hulu if you want to spend eighty four dollars

1754
01:49:45.680 --> 01:49:50.640
<v Speaker 2>a month, I do not, right, Filo is like you

1755
01:49:50.640 --> 01:49:55.439
<v Speaker 2>can get an introductory twenty five dollars a month and

1756
01:49:55.439 --> 01:49:58.960
<v Speaker 2>then it becomes like thirty five or forty dollars.

1757
01:49:59.399 --> 01:49:59.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I know.

1758
01:50:00.239 --> 01:50:02.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, there's so many different packages and none of them

1759
01:50:02.840 --> 01:50:05.319
<v Speaker 2>are really cheap. And so it's like, well, who are

1760
01:50:05.359 --> 01:50:08.920
<v Speaker 2>these people that are watching drag Race because it ain't

1761
01:50:08.960 --> 01:50:12.560
<v Speaker 2>nobody I know, there's nobody has cable. So I just

1762
01:50:12.560 --> 01:50:14.840
<v Speaker 2>found that interesting and that's been a problem.

1763
01:50:15.039 --> 01:50:17.399
<v Speaker 1>We haven't had cable in years.

1764
01:50:16.840 --> 01:50:21.159
<v Speaker 2>Right, we haven't really needed it, you know, I don't

1765
01:50:21.159 --> 01:50:23.760
<v Speaker 2>know's that, but it was dumping people crazy because like

1766
01:50:23.840 --> 01:50:27.359
<v Speaker 2>All Stars is always on Paramount Plus, Like it just

1767
01:50:27.359 --> 01:50:29.079
<v Speaker 2>goes directly to Paramount Plus and you can watch the

1768
01:50:29.119 --> 01:50:31.319
<v Speaker 2>new episode when it drops. So that's fine as we

1769
01:50:31.439 --> 01:50:34.960
<v Speaker 2>have that. But it's just, you know, and theoretically I

1770
01:50:35.000 --> 01:50:37.479
<v Speaker 2>could watch it at work because work has cable.

1771
01:50:37.600 --> 01:50:38.239
<v Speaker 1>I bet they do.

1772
01:50:38.600 --> 01:50:42.159
<v Speaker 2>But I don't want to sit and watch drag race

1773
01:50:42.199 --> 01:50:42.800
<v Speaker 2>with those people.

1774
01:50:43.359 --> 01:50:44.960
<v Speaker 1>I was gonna say, I don't know how that would

1775
01:50:44.960 --> 01:50:46.880
<v Speaker 1>go whatever.

1776
01:50:47.079 --> 01:50:49.760
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, that's all. It's just it's a it's a

1777
01:50:49.800 --> 01:50:53.319
<v Speaker 2>it's a current conversation that is being had because folks

1778
01:50:53.359 --> 01:50:56.439
<v Speaker 2>are not thrilled about the way this is going down.

1779
01:50:56.760 --> 01:51:00.880
<v Speaker 1>Okay, Oh well, I wonder why they keep moving network.

1780
01:51:01.199 --> 01:51:05.840
<v Speaker 2>Money hmm, Because first it started on Logo, I know,

1781
01:51:06.039 --> 01:51:08.880
<v Speaker 2>the little queer network that could, right, and then they

1782
01:51:08.920 --> 01:51:12.880
<v Speaker 2>got a little money, and so they moved to uh

1783
01:51:13.239 --> 01:51:16.279
<v Speaker 2>VH one, right, And then they were on VH one

1784
01:51:16.359 --> 01:51:21.920
<v Speaker 2>for a while, and then then they started airing All

1785
01:51:21.920 --> 01:51:24.720
<v Speaker 2>Stars on Paramount Plus exclusively and people were mad about

1786
01:51:24.760 --> 01:51:27.039
<v Speaker 2>that because that's an extra subscription. And then they moved

1787
01:51:27.039 --> 01:51:28.560
<v Speaker 2>to MTV and this is where they are. They've been

1788
01:51:28.560 --> 01:51:30.399
<v Speaker 2>in the MTV the past three seasons.

1789
01:51:30.039 --> 01:51:33.479
<v Speaker 1>And MTV and VH one used to be the same thing. Well,

1790
01:51:33.680 --> 01:51:36.720
<v Speaker 1>sister Sister Chambers or whatever. I mean, they were both

1791
01:51:36.760 --> 01:51:39.880
<v Speaker 1>on Basic cable, right, you got them both in the package,

1792
01:51:39.920 --> 01:51:45.560
<v Speaker 1>I believe, right, but we don't. Yeah, so sorry, right,

1793
01:51:45.720 --> 01:51:50.880
<v Speaker 1>I guess I've been watching Chicago PD. Yes, it was

1794
01:51:50.960 --> 01:51:53.680
<v Speaker 1>one of those I bypassed for so long. Right.

1795
01:51:54.199 --> 01:51:56.199
<v Speaker 2>It exists in the same world as all the laws

1796
01:51:56.199 --> 01:51:56.600
<v Speaker 2>in Order.

1797
01:51:56.800 --> 01:51:58.840
<v Speaker 1>Well, every time I would like get to the end

1798
01:51:58.920 --> 01:52:02.000
<v Speaker 1>of a long in Order binge, it would say, you know,

1799
01:52:02.079 --> 01:52:05.000
<v Speaker 1>you also you might also want to watch It's it's

1800
01:52:05.119 --> 01:52:08.600
<v Speaker 1>very violent in comparison, I know, because there's a lot

1801
01:52:08.600 --> 01:52:14.119
<v Speaker 1>of running. They're always running those god, a lot of chasing,

1802
01:52:14.159 --> 01:52:17.479
<v Speaker 1>a lot of running, a lot of running pretty people running,

1803
01:52:17.720 --> 01:52:21.079
<v Speaker 1>and most of the time but running running right right.

1804
01:52:20.960 --> 01:52:23.319
<v Speaker 2>Every time I would walk into the room, it was

1805
01:52:23.359 --> 01:52:28.000
<v Speaker 2>some chaotic craziness going on, shooting and screaming and running.

1806
01:52:28.039 --> 01:52:30.279
<v Speaker 1>And I'm telling you, mm hmm.

1807
01:52:31.439 --> 01:52:35.199
<v Speaker 2>And and the only people that are on the Chicago

1808
01:52:35.359 --> 01:52:44.159
<v Speaker 2>Police Department are twinks, maximum models, and then folks that

1809
01:52:44.199 --> 01:52:47.119
<v Speaker 2>are like fifty five and up like that's it. No

1810
01:52:47.159 --> 01:52:50.920
<v Speaker 2>one in between. Hu, That's what I noticed.

1811
01:52:52.079 --> 01:52:54.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's weird.

1812
01:52:54.319 --> 01:52:54.920
<v Speaker 2>It is weird.

1813
01:52:55.439 --> 01:52:57.039
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, it's it's a thing.

1814
01:52:57.159 --> 01:52:59.239
<v Speaker 2>It's like, howard do you have any kind of seniority

1815
01:52:59.319 --> 01:53:02.039
<v Speaker 2>in the police apartment when you look like you're twenty

1816
01:53:02.600 --> 01:53:03.119
<v Speaker 2>years old.

1817
01:53:03.600 --> 01:53:08.119
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. It's just a new thing. I have

1818
01:53:08.239 --> 01:53:12.359
<v Speaker 1>never watched. It's entertaining, it's yeah, some of it's you know.

1819
01:53:12.319 --> 01:53:15.239
<v Speaker 2>It's very Is it more violent than s for you?

1820
01:53:15.760 --> 01:53:16.960
<v Speaker 2>I think it feels more.

1821
01:53:17.039 --> 01:53:20.720
<v Speaker 1>I think so. Yeah, there was too much running in that,

1822
01:53:20.880 --> 01:53:24.359
<v Speaker 1>but this is worse. It's like always running. Everybody runs away.

1823
01:53:24.439 --> 01:53:26.880
<v Speaker 2>It's like a severed woman's head. I'm just like, goddamn

1824
01:53:29.600 --> 01:53:30.039
<v Speaker 2>the fuck.

1825
01:53:30.600 --> 01:53:33.239
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. It's just been a you know, one of those

1826
01:53:33.279 --> 01:53:37.199
<v Speaker 1>things to put in the background. I don't know.

1827
01:53:38.119 --> 01:53:40.159
<v Speaker 2>Speaking of which the Golden Globes happened.

1828
01:53:40.479 --> 01:53:43.640
<v Speaker 1>They did. We mentioned to one to six earlier.

1829
01:53:43.960 --> 01:53:48.239
<v Speaker 2>Yes, and there was I know for one thing, there

1830
01:53:48.279 --> 01:53:51.279
<v Speaker 2>was a little bit of controversy. So Tiana Taylor.

1831
01:53:51.720 --> 01:53:56.039
<v Speaker 1>Won for the health Hamnet.

1832
01:53:56.439 --> 01:53:59.319
<v Speaker 2>It's a Shakespear the.

1833
01:53:59.279 --> 01:54:01.840
<v Speaker 1>Only thing we see all with sinners, which was great

1834
01:54:02.680 --> 01:54:06.720
<v Speaker 1>and one bad laughter another that's not on here. It

1835
01:54:06.760 --> 01:54:11.279
<v Speaker 1>is Best Motion Picture Drama, Best Motion Picture Musical Comedy.

1836
01:54:11.399 --> 01:54:14.399
<v Speaker 1>So wow, that's one battle after another. They're calling it

1837
01:54:14.439 --> 01:54:15.680
<v Speaker 1>a musical or comedy.

1838
01:54:15.800 --> 01:54:17.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's considered a comedy for some reason.

1839
01:54:18.079 --> 01:54:18.640
<v Speaker 1>Uh, huh.

1840
01:54:19.479 --> 01:54:23.439
<v Speaker 2>But Tiana Taylor won Best Performance by a Female Actor

1841
01:54:23.439 --> 01:54:31.199
<v Speaker 2>in a Supporting Role for One Bad Laughter Another. Now, yes, okay, yes,

1842
01:54:31.640 --> 01:54:36.000
<v Speaker 2>she's fabulous. I love yeah, Like I know, I know

1843
01:54:36.119 --> 01:54:40.920
<v Speaker 2>she's she was a singer who acts like I knew that,

1844
01:54:41.279 --> 01:54:45.399
<v Speaker 2>but I never really saw her until she was one

1845
01:54:45.479 --> 01:54:48.680
<v Speaker 2>of the hosts for the The Matt Gala this past year,

1846
01:54:49.119 --> 01:54:52.960
<v Speaker 2>and oh my god, she is so fucking fabulous. And

1847
01:54:53.079 --> 01:54:55.359
<v Speaker 2>uh then we saw her in One Bad Laughter Another

1848
01:54:55.399 --> 01:54:58.000
<v Speaker 2>and she put in work and she deserved to win

1849
01:54:58.319 --> 01:55:01.000
<v Speaker 2>her Golden Globe. But the conver station that's going on

1850
01:55:01.199 --> 01:55:06.000
<v Speaker 2>is her getting an award for that role as opposed

1851
01:55:06.039 --> 01:55:08.399
<v Speaker 2>to some of the other roles she's had is akin

1852
01:55:08.560 --> 01:55:13.319
<v Speaker 2>to Denzel winning his oscar for a training day. It's like,

1853
01:55:13.479 --> 01:55:17.479
<v Speaker 2>that's what you award. It's like a black woman who

1854
01:55:18.760 --> 01:55:24.119
<v Speaker 2>basically turns her back on the revolution and her family.

1855
01:55:24.319 --> 01:55:26.039
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that did happen.

1856
01:55:27.279 --> 01:55:31.640
<v Speaker 2>So but at the same time, it's like black characters

1857
01:55:31.680 --> 01:55:37.119
<v Speaker 2>are allowed to be complex too. Yeah, there's an argument

1858
01:55:37.159 --> 01:55:38.800
<v Speaker 2>to be made for but I totally get it.

1859
01:55:39.199 --> 01:55:40.960
<v Speaker 1>You got a squint to make that argument.

1860
01:55:41.199 --> 01:55:44.600
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, okay, I mean, having not seen anything else

1861
01:55:44.640 --> 01:55:45.560
<v Speaker 2>that she's done.

1862
01:55:45.359 --> 01:55:48.760
<v Speaker 1>Acting wise, but I hear what you're like, I.

1863
01:55:48.680 --> 01:55:51.960
<v Speaker 2>Can understand why someone might have that that argument, like, you.

1864
01:55:51.880 --> 01:55:55.479
<v Speaker 1>Know, yeah, there's a reason training day one and or

1865
01:55:55.520 --> 01:55:58.039
<v Speaker 1>he won for training day and not Malcolm X.

1866
01:55:58.199 --> 01:56:01.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I get it. And the reason why Halle Berry

1867
01:56:01.880 --> 01:56:03.520
<v Speaker 2>won her fucking Oscar.

1868
01:56:03.479 --> 01:56:08.960
<v Speaker 1>Okay, hmm, that's the same thing. There's not an equal

1869
01:56:08.960 --> 01:56:14.000
<v Speaker 1>comparison to I mean, she won by yeah, which I

1870
01:56:14.079 --> 01:56:18.880
<v Speaker 1>never saw. Yeah, she was a battered woman, right, she

1871
01:56:19.039 --> 01:56:19.439
<v Speaker 1>was a.

1872
01:56:19.319 --> 01:56:23.680
<v Speaker 2>Single mother, not that bright. I believe she was a

1873
01:56:23.760 --> 01:56:27.239
<v Speaker 2>drug addict, and she fucked a racist white man. Uh

1874
01:56:27.319 --> 01:56:29.560
<v Speaker 2>huh is the long and short of it.

1875
01:56:30.199 --> 01:56:35.800
<v Speaker 1>Okay, And she got an Oscar huh. And I realized

1876
01:56:35.840 --> 01:56:37.840
<v Speaker 1>I never saw the movie Don't.

1877
01:56:37.560 --> 01:56:39.840
<v Speaker 2>Do It to Yourself. I saw it was the first

1878
01:56:39.840 --> 01:56:44.880
<v Speaker 2>movie I ever took myself to by myself, and I

1879
01:56:44.920 --> 01:56:47.399
<v Speaker 2>was sitting in the theater mad. And then I was like, well,

1880
01:56:47.479 --> 01:56:49.159
<v Speaker 2>let me watch it again, just to make sure that

1881
01:56:49.239 --> 01:56:52.319
<v Speaker 2>I'm like not being unfair. And I still hated it,

1882
01:56:53.119 --> 01:56:56.279
<v Speaker 2>and it just and I think I wouldn't have the

1883
01:56:56.319 --> 01:57:00.239
<v Speaker 2>strong feelings I have about her winning the Oscar if

1884
01:57:00.279 --> 01:57:06.039
<v Speaker 2>she weren't the first black woman to win that award.

1885
01:57:06.159 --> 01:57:10.520
<v Speaker 2>I think, yes, I think that's what did it. It's like, no,

1886
01:57:11.399 --> 01:57:19.239
<v Speaker 2>but anyway, I've forgiven halle Berry as a person, but that.

1887
01:57:19.199 --> 01:57:25.319
<v Speaker 1>Was I mean Tianna Taylor won Best Supporting Yes, yes,

1888
01:57:25.359 --> 01:57:26.960
<v Speaker 1>and again she put in work that movie.

1889
01:57:27.119 --> 01:57:32.319
<v Speaker 2>That movie, you know, Arguments Aside was a wonderful film.

1890
01:57:32.880 --> 01:57:35.600
<v Speaker 1>A lot of these movies. I don't know a lot

1891
01:57:35.640 --> 01:57:39.439
<v Speaker 1>of these names. I don't know. Best Screenplay was one

1892
01:57:39.479 --> 01:57:46.239
<v Speaker 1>battle after another. Hm hmm, I's that right, we watched it.

1893
01:57:46.640 --> 01:57:50.239
<v Speaker 2>I still don't understand why Michael B. Jordan didn't win

1894
01:57:50.319 --> 01:57:52.600
<v Speaker 2>all the things for playing three part.

1895
01:57:54.159 --> 01:57:58.880
<v Speaker 1>Well yeah mm hmmm. Did sinners win anything?

1896
01:57:59.800 --> 01:58:00.000
<v Speaker 3>Uh?

1897
01:58:00.279 --> 01:58:06.039
<v Speaker 2>Best Cinematic Achievement Cinematic and box Office Achievement and Best Score?

1898
01:58:06.960 --> 01:58:07.319
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm.

1899
01:58:07.920 --> 01:58:13.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm in in both cases rightfully deserved, right right because

1900
01:58:13.039 --> 01:58:17.399
<v Speaker 2>like fuck box office achievement. They stay keeping that movie

1901
01:58:17.439 --> 01:58:20.720
<v Speaker 2>in the theaters. It it has left and come back

1902
01:58:24.239 --> 01:58:26.840
<v Speaker 2>so many times, like they, it leaves and it comes

1903
01:58:26.880 --> 01:58:29.159
<v Speaker 2>back with a bigger, bigger release. Then it leaves and

1904
01:58:29.199 --> 01:58:30.239
<v Speaker 2>it comes back in imax.

1905
01:58:31.680 --> 01:58:35.960
<v Speaker 1>H is the horn one for Pluribus, which it's still keeping.

1906
01:58:36.000 --> 01:58:40.039
<v Speaker 1>Told to watch right, Oh Noah Wiley remember him?

1907
01:58:40.479 --> 01:58:40.920
<v Speaker 2>Mm hmmm.

1908
01:58:41.439 --> 01:58:45.920
<v Speaker 1>From from from R one for the Pit, which is

1909
01:58:45.960 --> 01:58:47.920
<v Speaker 1>something else we have not watched. Yeah.

1910
01:58:47.920 --> 01:58:49.199
<v Speaker 2>I keep saying, we need to watch that.

1911
01:58:49.520 --> 01:58:54.279
<v Speaker 1>Gene Smart one for Hacks, yes, which I adore. Michelle

1912
01:58:54.359 --> 01:58:59.319
<v Speaker 1>Williams one for Dying for Sex.

1913
01:58:59.399 --> 01:59:02.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what the Oh that's a series.

1914
01:59:02.960 --> 01:59:04.279
<v Speaker 1>Or limited series. Yeah.

1915
01:59:04.279 --> 01:59:07.039
<v Speaker 2>One of my clients was showing me that show and

1916
01:59:07.039 --> 01:59:08.800
<v Speaker 2>tell me about it, and I was like, oh, good Christ.

1917
01:59:10.199 --> 01:59:13.439
<v Speaker 1>For the Studio, which we started watching and then stopped.

1918
01:59:14.920 --> 01:59:16.600
<v Speaker 1>Was there a reason we stopped or we just went?

1919
01:59:17.600 --> 01:59:21.960
<v Speaker 2>You stopped because you were annoyed by the style of comedy.

1920
01:59:22.039 --> 01:59:28.079
<v Speaker 2>It was like cringey cringe comedy. But I ended up

1921
01:59:28.119 --> 01:59:31.840
<v Speaker 2>finishing it and it is. It is funny, but it's

1922
01:59:31.880 --> 01:59:36.760
<v Speaker 2>also really well done. Like my favorite episode, as I

1923
01:59:36.760 --> 01:59:38.319
<v Speaker 2>think it might have been the last one you watched.

1924
01:59:38.319 --> 01:59:41.199
<v Speaker 2>It was called The Wonner, where he was visiting the

1925
01:59:41.279 --> 01:59:43.760
<v Speaker 2>set and they were trying to get that one take

1926
01:59:43.840 --> 01:59:45.800
<v Speaker 2>shot and he kept sucking it up.

1927
01:59:45.920 --> 01:59:49.720
<v Speaker 1>Yep, he kept messing it up, right, but then it

1928
01:59:49.920 --> 01:59:51.279
<v Speaker 1>just got to be ridiculous.

1929
01:59:51.520 --> 01:59:54.079
<v Speaker 2>Right. But the reason why I loved that episode was

1930
01:59:54.159 --> 01:59:56.600
<v Speaker 2>so much was when I realized that the episode itself

1931
01:59:56.680 --> 01:59:58.640
<v Speaker 2>was shot completely in one take. I was like, Oh

1932
01:59:58.640 --> 02:00:02.039
<v Speaker 2>my god, that's brilliant. And then I noticed from that

1933
02:00:02.079 --> 02:00:05.319
<v Speaker 2>point forward that each episode there was a certain cinematic

1934
02:00:05.359 --> 02:00:08.239
<v Speaker 2>technique that was used to do the episode. Like the

1935
02:00:08.399 --> 02:00:12.760
<v Speaker 2>very next episode had this really dramatic drone shot that

1936
02:00:13.479 --> 02:00:16.039
<v Speaker 2>you don't realize and if you're not paying attention. And

1937
02:00:16.079 --> 02:00:18.000
<v Speaker 2>then once I paid attention, I was like, oh shit.

1938
02:00:18.039 --> 02:00:19.319
<v Speaker 2>And then I backed it up and watched it again.

1939
02:00:19.359 --> 02:00:21.800
<v Speaker 2>It was really really well done, So I get it.

1940
02:00:22.600 --> 02:00:22.880
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

1941
02:00:23.000 --> 02:00:25.720
<v Speaker 2>I also get why you wouldn't care for that style

1942
02:00:25.760 --> 02:00:27.760
<v Speaker 2>of comedy because it is kind of cringe porny.

1943
02:00:27.920 --> 02:00:28.680
<v Speaker 1>It annoys me.

1944
02:00:28.920 --> 02:00:29.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I get it.

1945
02:00:30.520 --> 02:00:34.399
<v Speaker 1>I can just you know, read the news and be annoyed.

1946
02:00:35.039 --> 02:00:35.600
<v Speaker 2>This is true.

1947
02:00:35.680 --> 02:00:40.159
<v Speaker 1>I don't find it entertaining. Yeah, it got silly, it

1948
02:00:40.199 --> 02:00:41.159
<v Speaker 1>got like.

1949
02:00:41.359 --> 02:00:43.199
<v Speaker 2>Enough ally it was silly.

1950
02:00:42.880 --> 02:00:46.239
<v Speaker 1>But anytime I say enough already, yeah, we're like we're done.

1951
02:00:47.600 --> 02:00:51.000
<v Speaker 1>We're just done. Like when slapped, it turns into the absurd.

1952
02:00:51.319 --> 02:00:54.199
<v Speaker 2>There were moments of slapstick. Yeah you would have right

1953
02:00:54.239 --> 02:00:55.079
<v Speaker 2>now is absurd.

1954
02:00:55.520 --> 02:01:01.920
<v Speaker 1>So uh yeah, that doesn't make me laugh.

1955
02:01:02.720 --> 02:01:03.239
<v Speaker 2>I liked it.

1956
02:01:03.279 --> 02:01:06.239
<v Speaker 1>I was entertained by it, but well, anyway, I won,

1957
02:01:06.439 --> 02:01:10.960
<v Speaker 1>he won something one right that happened. We didn't watch,

1958
02:01:10.960 --> 02:01:12.920
<v Speaker 1>and I have no desire.

1959
02:01:13.560 --> 02:01:15.359
<v Speaker 2>I would have liked to watch it, but I don't

1960
02:01:15.359 --> 02:01:18.119
<v Speaker 2>have the kind of schedule anymore on Sunday nights that

1961
02:01:18.159 --> 02:01:19.319
<v Speaker 2>I can watch award shows.

1962
02:01:19.640 --> 02:01:23.239
<v Speaker 1>May do not, so I don't have the desire. So

1963
02:01:23.279 --> 02:01:23.680
<v Speaker 1>there we go.

1964
02:01:25.479 --> 02:01:29.159
<v Speaker 2>I don't have the time. You don't have the desire, Nope, none,

1965
02:01:29.520 --> 02:01:33.319
<v Speaker 2>So no, But I do like knowing who wins and

1966
02:01:33.399 --> 02:01:36.760
<v Speaker 2>who is nominated, because you know, we've seen all of

1967
02:01:36.840 --> 02:01:39.039
<v Speaker 2>two and a half things that were nominated this year,

1968
02:01:39.079 --> 02:01:40.720
<v Speaker 2>so I'd like to see if the things that I

1969
02:01:40.840 --> 02:01:43.359
<v Speaker 2>liked win the things.

1970
02:01:44.560 --> 02:01:49.279
<v Speaker 1>Okay, all right, yeah, any other pop culture you'd like

1971
02:01:49.359 --> 02:01:52.359
<v Speaker 1>to talk about anything else happening?

1972
02:01:52.560 --> 02:01:53.479
<v Speaker 2>No, not really.

1973
02:01:53.840 --> 02:01:55.560
<v Speaker 1>I feel like culture is diminishing.

1974
02:01:57.680 --> 02:01:59.520
<v Speaker 2>Culture is not diminishing.

1975
02:02:00.680 --> 02:02:01.720
<v Speaker 1>M hmm the moment.

1976
02:02:02.960 --> 02:02:04.520
<v Speaker 2>I mean, the artist is still make an art.

1977
02:02:04.800 --> 02:02:08.960
<v Speaker 1>I know, I know it's true.

1978
02:02:09.399 --> 02:02:13.880
<v Speaker 2>But I'm noticing that I'm going to have a lot

1979
02:02:13.960 --> 02:02:19.920
<v Speaker 2>less time on my hands to watch things because you know,

1980
02:02:19.960 --> 02:02:23.079
<v Speaker 2>I got my promotion, and in my old job, you know,

1981
02:02:23.159 --> 02:02:26.119
<v Speaker 2>I had more downtime on the job once I got

1982
02:02:26.119 --> 02:02:29.439
<v Speaker 2>my work work done, so I could watch that new

1983
02:02:29.479 --> 02:02:30.960
<v Speaker 2>movie or that new series.

1984
02:02:31.399 --> 02:02:32.039
<v Speaker 1>Not so much.

1985
02:02:32.159 --> 02:02:35.239
<v Speaker 2>Now I'm actually like busy the entire time.

1986
02:02:36.840 --> 02:02:38.439
<v Speaker 1>So mixed the Nico Pastor.

1987
02:02:38.720 --> 02:02:42.560
<v Speaker 2>It really does. Like I like being busy, sure, but

1988
02:02:42.800 --> 02:02:44.399
<v Speaker 2>you know I don't get to watch it no more.

1989
02:02:45.039 --> 02:02:45.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah I did.

1990
02:02:46.000 --> 02:02:50.119
<v Speaker 2>I never did so, And you know the stuff I

1991
02:02:50.159 --> 02:02:52.319
<v Speaker 2>would watch at work is the stuff that I couldn't

1992
02:02:52.319 --> 02:02:54.359
<v Speaker 2>watch with you, like R movies and things like that.

1993
02:02:55.079 --> 02:02:57.520
<v Speaker 2>So I'm curious to see how pop culture works from

1994
02:02:57.560 --> 02:02:58.119
<v Speaker 2>here on out.

1995
02:03:00.840 --> 02:03:03.560
<v Speaker 1>Well, I mean, there are multiple seasons of Chicago pe dude,

1996
02:03:05.479 --> 02:03:07.560
<v Speaker 1>unless they start to annoy me. I mean I was

1997
02:03:07.600 --> 02:03:10.399
<v Speaker 1>watching The Closer and then we got to that episode

1998
02:03:10.920 --> 02:03:12.840
<v Speaker 1>and then I stopped, and then I was watching what

1999
02:03:12.880 --> 02:03:14.600
<v Speaker 1>else was I watching? And then I stopped.

2000
02:03:15.199 --> 02:03:17.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we talked about it last episode three different shows.

2001
02:03:17.880 --> 02:03:20.199
<v Speaker 1>You were like, no, yeah, no, we just hit a

2002
02:03:20.199 --> 02:03:24.920
<v Speaker 1>place where I went, yeah and stop. The West Wing

2003
02:03:25.159 --> 02:03:27.479
<v Speaker 1>was having a gasp and I stopped there too. I

2004
02:03:27.520 --> 02:03:30.479
<v Speaker 1>did not finish because maybe I'll go back. But it

2005
02:03:30.600 --> 02:03:35.239
<v Speaker 1>was like, okay, I'm tired right now. It was too directionless.

2006
02:03:35.319 --> 02:03:35.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah whatever.

2007
02:03:36.840 --> 02:03:39.399
<v Speaker 2>No, the West Wing, it was just depressing because it

2008
02:03:39.520 --> 02:03:41.640
<v Speaker 2>was getting to it was it was not at a

2009
02:03:41.680 --> 02:03:46.399
<v Speaker 2>place where because we're not that anymore. No that yes,

2010
02:03:46.520 --> 02:03:49.000
<v Speaker 2>but it was a I want to say they were

2011
02:03:49.119 --> 02:03:54.159
<v Speaker 2>floundering like policy wise or whatever, and I, oh, right,

2012
02:03:54.760 --> 02:03:58.000
<v Speaker 2>I didn't want to write second term bullshit whatever, And

2013
02:03:58.079 --> 02:03:58.800
<v Speaker 2>I was just like.

2014
02:03:58.800 --> 02:04:01.600
<v Speaker 1>You know what, yeah, I don't need to watch this

2015
02:04:01.640 --> 02:04:04.640
<v Speaker 1>go down. Yeah. Yeah, I mean I've watched it through

2016
02:04:04.680 --> 02:04:06.960
<v Speaker 1>more than one time, but so right, but I just

2017
02:04:07.000 --> 02:04:12.760
<v Speaker 1>went yeah, no. And then the closer was that, you know,

2018
02:04:15.199 --> 02:04:18.720
<v Speaker 1>and something else. There was another one that I stopped midstream,

2019
02:04:18.800 --> 02:04:23.600
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, and that might happen here, right, who knows.

2020
02:04:23.680 --> 02:04:25.560
<v Speaker 2>Then I also pull you out of your series to

2021
02:04:26.119 --> 02:04:29.800
<v Speaker 2>say things like we have to watch one bad laughter another.

2022
02:04:30.960 --> 02:04:31.840
<v Speaker 1>So and we did.

2023
02:04:32.479 --> 02:04:34.079
<v Speaker 2>There's other things and I'm sure I'll do that for

2024
02:04:34.479 --> 02:04:36.880
<v Speaker 2>like I said, Bob the Drag Queen has a new

2025
02:04:37.079 --> 02:04:39.680
<v Speaker 2>stand up special on Hulu. We have to watch that.

2026
02:04:39.920 --> 02:04:43.840
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I'm sure we will. Yeah, I think it's time
