WEBVTT 1 00:00:08.160 --> 00:00:12.000 Joe Escalante live from Hollywood. But today we are live 2 00:00:12.000 --> 00:00:18.559 from Coachella, live from the YouTube live stream studio here backstage, 3 00:00:19.199 --> 00:00:23.199 where I have been all weekend long, and I come 4 00:00:23.199 --> 00:00:25.920 out here of a year. As you know, maybe you 5 00:00:25.920 --> 00:00:28.640 don't know, you probably know. Last year I was the 6 00:00:28.679 --> 00:00:31.719 manager of Well, I'm still the manager of Sublime, but 7 00:00:32.399 --> 00:00:36.439 the band debuted on the main stage here at Coachella. 8 00:00:36.560 --> 00:00:39.719 It was quite an event. And this year I'm back 9 00:00:39.759 --> 00:00:45.000 as just a guy. But you know, I don't mind 10 00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:47.600 being just a guy at Coachella. It's fun, especially for 11 00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:50.079 a young person like me. Coachella it really is for 12 00:00:50.119 --> 00:00:54.000 the young. And if you're old, don't try it because 13 00:00:54.039 --> 00:00:57.840 it's too hot and too dusty. But if you're young, 14 00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:03.359 like Joe Escalante, you can handle it. Speaking of Coachella, 15 00:01:03.399 --> 00:01:06.480 the big news around here and probably where you are too, 16 00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:11.120 is Weezer. You may have heard this story. Weezer, one 17 00:01:11.159 --> 00:01:15.239 of the greatest rock bands of all time, has a 18 00:01:15.239 --> 00:01:20.120 bass player named Scott Schriner, and there was an incident. 19 00:01:20.359 --> 00:01:24.560 As you know, he goes on Thursday or Wednesday, his 20 00:01:24.599 --> 00:01:28.680 wife was shot by the police, and he still played 21 00:01:28.760 --> 00:01:33.560 Coachella on Saturday afternoon. I watched him yesterday and it 22 00:01:33.719 --> 00:01:36.040 was delightful. They really are one of the greatest rock 23 00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:38.799 bands in music history. And if you're not familiar with 24 00:01:38.840 --> 00:01:43.640 the Weezer catalog, you should get familiar with it. Despite 25 00:01:43.799 --> 00:01:47.799 the bass player's wife, Jillian Lauren, getting shot by police, 26 00:01:50.920 --> 00:01:54.280 the band play now. Police officers shot Lauren on Tuesday 27 00:01:54.280 --> 00:01:56.680 as they were in pursuit of three suspects that fled 28 00:01:56.760 --> 00:01:59.439 during a hit and run case, making their way to 29 00:01:59.519 --> 00:02:03.799 Lauren's naghborhood of Eagle Rock, also the home of Gary Tovar, 30 00:02:04.599 --> 00:02:07.439 the founder of Golden Voice that puts on the Coachella 31 00:02:07.519 --> 00:02:11.159 concert as they and he told me, actually, there was 32 00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:14.159 chaos in the neighborhood, So think about this story when 33 00:02:14.159 --> 00:02:16.759 you're thinking of the story. Just absolute chaos in the neighborhood. 34 00:02:17.080 --> 00:02:20.080 And as the authorities continued their search for the hit 35 00:02:20.120 --> 00:02:26.639 and run suspects, behind one home, they saw the Scott 36 00:02:26.680 --> 00:02:32.560 Schriner's wife outside her residence armed with a handgun. Okay, 37 00:02:32.599 --> 00:02:34.919 there's chaos everywhere. She pulls out her gun. She lives 38 00:02:34.919 --> 00:02:38.520 in La Okay, And what people in La know is 39 00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:40.719 that the police aren't going to protect you when something's 40 00:02:40.759 --> 00:02:43.800 crazy going on, because they just don't come anymore when 41 00:02:43.800 --> 00:02:45.800 you want. That's the reputa, that's the feeling I think 42 00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:48.199 people have, like I got to arm myself. I gotta 43 00:02:48.199 --> 00:02:50.039 protect myself because they're just not going to come. And 44 00:02:50.080 --> 00:02:52.240 it's not their fault. There's just all kinds of stuff 45 00:02:52.280 --> 00:02:53.960 going on. I'm not going to get into right now. 46 00:02:54.759 --> 00:02:59.479 But authorities say they asked her to put her gun 47 00:02:59.520 --> 00:03:03.520 down multi suple times, but she said that, but the 48 00:03:03.520 --> 00:03:06.919 authority said that she refused and pointed the gun at 49 00:03:07.000 --> 00:03:11.000 the officers and so they shot her. Now, I don't 50 00:03:11.000 --> 00:03:12.919 know what kind of aim these officers had, but she 51 00:03:13.039 --> 00:03:15.960 was able to get up go back into her home, 52 00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:18.840 and then she came out later and she was taken 53 00:03:18.840 --> 00:03:23.520 into custody, charged with like attempted murder or something, and 54 00:03:23.560 --> 00:03:27.319 she taken to the hospital with non life threatening injuries, 55 00:03:28.000 --> 00:03:31.560 and yeah, booked for attempted murder. No officers were hurt 56 00:03:31.639 --> 00:03:34.759 at the shooting, and one of the hit and run 57 00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:37.719 suspects has been arrested. I don't know if you saw 58 00:03:37.719 --> 00:03:40.280 that guy. He was one of the greatest. I got 59 00:03:40.680 --> 00:03:46.000 mad respect for this guy. He ran into a neighborhood, 60 00:03:47.039 --> 00:03:50.120 hid somewhere, took off all his clothes except for his shorts, 61 00:03:50.759 --> 00:03:53.199 and he came up with this ingenious plan. I'm going 62 00:03:53.240 --> 00:03:55.639 to start watering my lawn. I grabb a hose, just 63 00:03:55.680 --> 00:03:58.719 watering my lawn and hoping cops would see him. Oh, 64 00:03:58.719 --> 00:04:00.719 this is this guy in his shorts watering is long. 65 00:04:01.520 --> 00:04:03.520 Nothing to see here. Keep coming. But they were like, 66 00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:07.759 wait a second, you're the hit and run suspect, and 67 00:04:07.800 --> 00:04:13.639 they collared him. I think that's what the cops say. So, yeah, 68 00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:18.240 Weezer was awesome, and yeah, it's just kind of weird 69 00:04:18.279 --> 00:04:21.879 that the cops. It's a miracle that they didn't kill her. 70 00:04:22.480 --> 00:04:25.079 This is so I mean, everyone should be so grateful 71 00:04:25.879 --> 00:04:32.240 that she didn't die and she only had minor injuries. Unbelievable. Unbelievable, 72 00:04:32.240 --> 00:04:40.839 but they still they still played. So so we'll keep 73 00:04:40.879 --> 00:04:43.399 you updated on that. But since this is the once 74 00:04:43.399 --> 00:04:45.160 a week show, you might want to check somewhere else. 75 00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:48.759 How's that now? If you want the latest on the 76 00:04:48.879 --> 00:04:55.480 Jason Baldoni, Blake Lively a few that's going on. I 77 00:04:55.560 --> 00:04:59.439 don't actually have an amazing update because I just can't 78 00:04:59.480 --> 00:05:02.399 follow it, and I I don't think it's really important 79 00:05:02.959 --> 00:05:06.800 enough to be worried about the legal issues are so 80 00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:12.639 complicated it doesn't make good radio. But I did read 81 00:05:12.680 --> 00:05:18.079 an article that was interesting in that it said these 82 00:05:18.199 --> 00:05:24.399 kind of feuds used to be handled differently, and they 83 00:05:24.399 --> 00:05:30.040 had a different effect on the careers of the people 84 00:05:30.839 --> 00:05:39.000 that were involved. But the recent public clash between Blake 85 00:05:39.079 --> 00:05:42.439 Lively and Justin Baldini, it highlights a stark shift in 86 00:05:42.480 --> 00:05:46.399 how Hollywood feuds play out. Gone to the days of 87 00:05:46.439 --> 00:05:51.839 carefully crafted scandals. Now disputes detonate in real time across 88 00:05:51.879 --> 00:05:57.360 social media with potentially career shredding consequences. Okay, the Lively 89 00:05:57.399 --> 00:06:01.560 Baldini situation, take this one for instance, it's got leaked videos, 90 00:06:01.600 --> 00:06:07.279 social media dissection. Now, compare that to these classic Hollywood 91 00:06:07.319 --> 00:06:12.240 feuds like Betty Davis versus Joan Crawford. Their legendary animosity 92 00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:17.480 while fierce was managed and even fueled their careers. Similarly, 93 00:06:18.079 --> 00:06:22.519 the Debbie Reynolds Eddie Fisher Elizabeth Taylor triangle, and even 94 00:06:22.519 --> 00:06:25.120 the Madonna and Guy Ritchie's divorce were handled with a 95 00:06:25.160 --> 00:06:28.480 degree of control that it turns it into a part 96 00:06:28.519 --> 00:06:31.920 of their public personas. And it was like the no 97 00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:35.720 publicity is bad publicity era. Well, evidently people think that 98 00:06:35.879 --> 00:06:39.079 is over with the rise of social media. The Johnny 99 00:06:39.079 --> 00:06:42.639 Depp amber Heard trial was a watershed moment. It showed 100 00:06:42.680 --> 00:06:46.439 how public disputes can be memified they're saying, and their 101 00:06:46.519 --> 00:06:52.399 reputations damaged by the unfiltered exposure. See this. You've seen 102 00:06:52.439 --> 00:06:57.800 the old Hollywood, you know, scandal sheets of yesterday, where 103 00:06:57.800 --> 00:07:01.319 they were like, you know, they'd feed some information to 104 00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:03.639 the press. They try to pump up and make sure 105 00:07:03.680 --> 00:07:05.839 everybody's talking about these people. At least people are talking 106 00:07:05.839 --> 00:07:09.759 about you. But evidently that's not so great anymore. Now 107 00:07:10.120 --> 00:07:13.079 Lively and Baldoni's on set tensions are being dissected by 108 00:07:13.120 --> 00:07:17.839 online strangers, with so called truths found in online threads 109 00:07:17.879 --> 00:07:21.800 and in TikTok reactions. The loss of control over narrative 110 00:07:21.920 --> 00:07:24.399 is believed to be more damaging to both the stars 111 00:07:24.439 --> 00:07:27.800 and the industry. Publicists are struggling to manage the chaos, 112 00:07:28.160 --> 00:07:31.480 and the very system that once protected celebrity images is 113 00:07:31.519 --> 00:07:35.360 breaking down. The takeaway in the age of social media, 114 00:07:35.639 --> 00:07:41.959 Hollywood feuds aren't building buzz, they're burning careers. You think 115 00:07:41.959 --> 00:07:49.480 of that, Okay, I mean, these two people are now 116 00:07:49.759 --> 00:07:51.439 to me when I hear their names, like they got 117 00:07:51.519 --> 00:07:56.560 they both got problems. The you know, depending on what 118 00:07:56.680 --> 00:07:59.240 article you read last, is the one where you think, oh, 119 00:07:59.360 --> 00:08:04.120 that person is is a victim. Then you then you 120 00:08:04.160 --> 00:08:07.800 read another CARDI article on you that one's a victim. 121 00:08:08.160 --> 00:08:10.040 Johnny Depp and Amber heard thing. What did that do 122 00:08:10.120 --> 00:08:14.800 to Amberhurd? Oh my lord, I mean that wasn't good 123 00:08:15.480 --> 00:08:19.519 Johnny Depp a lot of damage. But he came out. 124 00:08:19.560 --> 00:08:21.399 I think we can all say he came out the winner. 125 00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:27.680 But you know, I think it hurt his career. I 126 00:08:27.759 --> 00:08:32.320 think he won, but it hurt his career. It's funny, 127 00:08:32.360 --> 00:08:35.759 like a long time ago there where that the reporters 128 00:08:35.799 --> 00:08:38.600 were oftentimes trying to prevent people from finding out the 129 00:08:38.600 --> 00:08:41.120 stars were gay. So they would, you know, pay a 130 00:08:41.120 --> 00:08:43.120 little money and say, hey, look, take a picture of 131 00:08:43.159 --> 00:08:49.840 this closeted actor and this starlet, and or I'll tell 132 00:08:49.840 --> 00:08:51.679 you where they're going to be together, and you take 133 00:08:51.720 --> 00:08:56.320 some pictures, and then I'll insinuate that they went to 134 00:08:56.480 --> 00:09:00.720 a motel, nottel or whatever that was. That's kind of 135 00:09:00.759 --> 00:09:02.720 language they use back then too. They would say things 136 00:09:02.759 --> 00:09:06.279 like motel, motel with a straight face. So things are 137 00:09:06.279 --> 00:09:11.200 different now, So don't get in a feud. That's the 138 00:09:11.240 --> 00:09:15.519 advice no news is good, no publicity is bad publicity. 139 00:09:15.720 --> 00:09:18.480 That's not true anymore. Okay, let's take a break and 140 00:09:18.519 --> 00:09:21.200 check traffic right here on Joe Escalante Live from Hollywood. 141 00:09:21.840 --> 00:09:28.919 Joe Escalante Live from Coachella. Yes, in Coachella Valley. If 142 00:09:28.919 --> 00:09:33.279 you might have seen recently on my Facebook page, I 143 00:09:33.320 --> 00:09:35.919 posted that I bought a home out here and that 144 00:09:36.200 --> 00:09:41.480 is in the community of Rancho Mirage in the Kotinoak 145 00:09:41.879 --> 00:09:46.320 Disney community, which means my home will be done in 146 00:09:47.080 --> 00:09:51.039 next February. And if you haven't seen anything about Cootino, 147 00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:56.960 it's a Disney owned development and it's pretty fascinating. There's 148 00:09:56.960 --> 00:10:02.799 a twenty four acre crystal lagoon of purified water in it, 149 00:10:02.840 --> 00:10:05.000 and that's like the big feature. There's a par house, 150 00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:09.080 which is a replica of the house that the Incredibles 151 00:10:09.759 --> 00:10:11.600 lived in in their movies. I haven't seen those movies, 152 00:10:11.639 --> 00:10:17.120 so maybe I should see them. And it's hot out here, 153 00:10:17.840 --> 00:10:23.720 but you're gonna have the lagoon, and yeah, Kotino dot 154 00:10:23.759 --> 00:10:25.919 com if you want to check that out. I'm actively 155 00:10:26.120 --> 00:10:30.600 looking for people to buy these homes because I want 156 00:10:30.960 --> 00:10:33.679 this community filled up. I don't want it to be empty. 157 00:10:33.679 --> 00:10:34.720 I don't want to be the only one to living 158 00:10:34.759 --> 00:10:38.519 out there. That's what I'm saying. Okay, So if you 159 00:10:38.559 --> 00:10:40.720 want to live out there, here's what you do. You 160 00:10:40.799 --> 00:10:49.720 go out and you go to the Kotino Gatehouse and 161 00:10:49.960 --> 00:10:51.679 you just say I'm here to look at the models. 162 00:10:51.799 --> 00:10:55.559 Anybody can do this. This is a free Disney activity. 163 00:10:55.679 --> 00:10:58.960 Driving to Palm Springs to Ranchom Mirage, going to the 164 00:10:59.000 --> 00:11:02.200 Kotino thing, and someone in the sales office will put 165 00:11:02.240 --> 00:11:05.279 you in a golf cart and they'll drive you out 166 00:11:05.320 --> 00:11:08.039 to look at the models. And they'll even show you 167 00:11:08.120 --> 00:11:12.159 the lagoon, which is all filled up now and the 168 00:11:12.159 --> 00:11:16.200 clubhouse is under construction. The tennis courts are up. There's 169 00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:19.240 a public side, or you can get a day pass 170 00:11:19.320 --> 00:11:22.919 and go into this lagoon and paddleboard and kayak. There's 171 00:11:22.919 --> 00:11:28.200 a heated section of the lagoon for the wintertime restaurants. 172 00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:35.039 All this stuff is happening, and if you really want 173 00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:37.639 to know more about it, you can get hold of me. 174 00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:39.720 And what's that you get old of me?

I think they got a email 178 00:11:52.159 --> 00:11:55.159 for me. There. I forget what my email address is, 179 00:11:56.039 --> 00:11:59.320 but they got it there. But you'll figure it out.

Yeah? 182 00:12:10.559 --> 00:12:16.360 Saw Green Day yesterday, awesome. Saw who else see Gustavo Dudamel, 183 00:12:16.440 --> 00:12:20.759 the conductor for the La Philharmonic, saw him yesterday. Awesome. 184 00:12:20.840 --> 00:12:24.759 Ello cool J came out and did a little appearance. 185 00:12:24.799 --> 00:12:28.120 But the biggest fun yesterday was Yogaba Gabba where weird 186 00:12:28.159 --> 00:12:31.240 Al Yankovic and my brother in law Paul Williams saying 187 00:12:31.360 --> 00:12:35.440 the Rainbow Connection while a massive amount of characters from 188 00:12:35.480 --> 00:12:41.159 Yogaba Gabba and hr Puff and stuff and also Land 189 00:12:41.200 --> 00:12:50.360 of the Lost danced around on stage. Super fun. So 190 00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:52.480 that's if you go. If you're going to Coachella next weekend, 191 00:12:52.559 --> 00:12:55.039 make sure you go to the Mojave tent and see 192 00:12:55.080 --> 00:12:57.559 the Yogaba Gabba thing because there's probably about the funnest 193 00:12:57.559 --> 00:13:04.120 thing they had. Flavor Fla was there and there is 194 00:13:04.200 --> 00:13:07.480 kind of interesting. I'll put this on my Facebook page, 195 00:13:07.600 --> 00:13:13.919 a picture of me and Flavor Flav and Boso Boso, 196 00:13:14.159 --> 00:13:18.919 the freaking clown Okay, are you familiar with Bozo the Clown. 197 00:13:19.279 --> 00:13:25.480 Bose of the Clown was invented by a guy named 198 00:13:25.799 --> 00:13:29.759 Alan Livingston in like the nineteen fifties. He was looking 199 00:13:29.759 --> 00:13:32.080 for he was the president of Capitol Records. He was 200 00:13:32.120 --> 00:13:37.639 trying to make a character for kids albums. So he's like, 201 00:13:37.679 --> 00:13:40.240 you know, he's like, ah, oh, we got here. I 202 00:13:40.279 --> 00:13:42.279 met Bose of the Clown. Yeah, he's a clown, that's right, 203 00:13:42.320 --> 00:13:45.120 and his name's Boso, and all the kids love Bozo 204 00:13:45.240 --> 00:13:49.440 the Clown. B oh z oh, bows, oh the clown. 205 00:13:49.480 --> 00:13:53.120 You get it all right, come up with something, you 206 00:13:53.159 --> 00:13:55.399 get it right, Okay, I think you get it. So 207 00:13:56.480 --> 00:14:01.919 Alan Livingston at some point, like he's making it for 208 00:14:02.440 --> 00:14:05.440 Capitol Records. Where I'm going to is, someone bought the 209 00:14:05.519 --> 00:14:09.720 rights to Boso the whole character recently and it's a 210 00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:12.519 famous star. And if you look at that picture of 211 00:14:12.559 --> 00:14:15.080 me with the guy, he's a famous actor and he 212 00:14:15.080 --> 00:14:17.000 bought Boso and he dressed up like Boso and he 213 00:14:17.000 --> 00:14:19.000 came to Coachella. So I think if you go to 214 00:14:19.000 --> 00:14:21.360 Coachella next weekend, you're going to see this famous actor 215 00:14:21.840 --> 00:14:24.240 dressed up like Boso because he bought the rights to Boso. 216 00:14:25.200 --> 00:14:28.399 He the famous actor you want to know, His name 217 00:14:28.480 --> 00:14:31.480 is David Arquette, so you can look google this. David 218 00:14:31.519 --> 00:14:35.440 Arquette bought the Boso rights and he owns Boso and 219 00:14:35.440 --> 00:14:37.200 he wants to He loves Boso and he wants to 220 00:14:39.039 --> 00:14:43.360 He wants to elevate Boso and let kids of all ages. 221 00:14:43.759 --> 00:14:48.360 You know, remember that Boso is a lovable clown. He 222 00:14:48.440 --> 00:14:50.120 puts his money into this. He put his money where 223 00:14:50.120 --> 00:14:54.799 his mouth is. So now where did he get the 224 00:14:54.879 --> 00:14:57.240 rights from? Evidently he bought him from Larry Harmon, who 225 00:14:57.279 --> 00:14:59.759 was like the most famous Boso that was running around 226 00:14:59.799 --> 00:15:02.679 be bows of the clown. So somehow I haven't really 227 00:15:02.919 --> 00:15:05.399 figured out the chain of title yet. At some point 228 00:15:05.480 --> 00:15:09.279 Capitol Records sold the rights to Bozo to somebody who 229 00:15:09.279 --> 00:15:11.480 sold them to somebody who sold them to Larry Harmon, 230 00:15:12.759 --> 00:15:16.879 and Larry Harmon sold them to David Arquette, and David 231 00:15:17.000 --> 00:15:19.399 Arquette put on the outfit and put on the makeup 232 00:15:19.720 --> 00:15:21.759 and went out on stage with my brother in law 233 00:15:22.039 --> 00:15:25.360 and we're now and they had a great time at 234 00:15:25.399 --> 00:15:28.080 the Mojave Tent. So if you're going to Coachella, make 235 00:15:28.080 --> 00:15:30.320 sure you do not miss Yo Gaba Gabba and don't 236 00:15:30.320 --> 00:15:34.240 miss their show on Apple TV. They got a show. 237 00:15:34.279 --> 00:15:36.600 It's great and it's for kids, but it's super fun. 238 00:15:36.720 --> 00:15:40.960 Everybody knows that Yogaba Gabba is fun for adults also, 239 00:15:41.000 --> 00:15:44.480 And there's really cool musical guests like the Chili Peppers 240 00:15:44.600 --> 00:15:48.240 or Portugal Demand. They performed on it with Paul Williams, 241 00:15:50.080 --> 00:15:55.919 the husband of my sister Mariana. And yeah, you just 242 00:15:55.960 --> 00:15:58.600 don't miss it if you're coming out next week, and 243 00:16:00.080 --> 00:16:05.840 other things not to miss. Lalisa saw Lalisa on Friday Night. 244 00:16:05.919 --> 00:16:09.159 Lalisa is the singer one of the singers of Black Pink, 245 00:16:09.200 --> 00:16:11.480 and you might also remember her as one of the 246 00:16:11.519 --> 00:16:16.240 stars of White Lotus. She plays the thi girl that 247 00:16:16.559 --> 00:16:23.159 is having a romantic affair with the guard at the gate. 248 00:16:25.039 --> 00:16:28.600 But she's a great actress and she's also a great 249 00:16:28.879 --> 00:16:32.440 singer and a great dancer. And I'll just stop there 250 00:16:32.480 --> 00:16:35.120 before I get in trouble. How's that. I don't want 251 00:16:35.120 --> 00:16:41.120 my wife Sasandra to get jealous. Hilarious, Joe, All right, 252 00:16:41.159 --> 00:16:45.679 back to the regular program. Let's see where are we're 253 00:16:45.679 --> 00:16:48.039 gonna go from here? But can you hear that thump 254 00:16:48.039 --> 00:16:57.159 in the background? M let's Coachella. Okay again, we're live 255 00:16:57.200 --> 00:17:02.000 from the YouTube Live st Studio. Let's go to the 256 00:17:02.559 --> 00:17:07.200 box office. Minecraft is just the king right now and 257 00:17:07.359 --> 00:17:11.119 it's running away with it. The other things that are 258 00:17:11.160 --> 00:17:13.240 that are doing well, some religious movies like King of 259 00:17:13.359 --> 00:17:18.359 Kings from Angel Studios. The Amateur's doing well from twentieth 260 00:17:18.359 --> 00:17:20.680 Century Fox, Warfare from A twenty four is doing well. 261 00:17:21.440 --> 00:17:25.359 The Chosen more religious movies from Fathom Events doing very well. 262 00:17:25.960 --> 00:17:28.880 Disneys know why okuld just you know, we all the 263 00:17:28.880 --> 00:17:31.599 haters have come down on that. We know that they've 264 00:17:31.640 --> 00:17:34.880 made seventy nine million at the box office. Minecraft has 265 00:17:34.880 --> 00:17:37.400 already made two hundred and twenty million in the first 266 00:17:37.400 --> 00:17:41.480 two weeks. What does Minecraft know that snow White doesn't? Well? 267 00:17:41.480 --> 00:17:44.400 Snow White has a hate campaign against it that I 268 00:17:44.440 --> 00:17:49.759 think most of it is undeserved. But Minecraft is just pure, 269 00:17:50.799 --> 00:17:56.119 you know, Minecraft, and it's got Jack Black. So I 270 00:17:56.160 --> 00:17:59.960 gotta tell you, Jack Black is so good in this film, 271 00:18:00.079 --> 00:18:03.279 and he's like, he shows you that he can carry 272 00:18:03.279 --> 00:18:07.039 a movie. And and God help anybody trying to make 273 00:18:07.079 --> 00:18:10.640 a movie like this without Jack Black. So I've seen 274 00:18:10.680 --> 00:18:14.279 the movie. I love the movie, and I encourage you 275 00:18:14.359 --> 00:18:17.759 if you're adult. Whatever, Go see the movie. It's super 276 00:18:17.799 --> 00:18:20.119 fun and it's just fun to sit there and enjoy 277 00:18:20.160 --> 00:18:25.200 Jack Black and Jason Momoa. Not bad, but without Jack Black. 278 00:18:27.200 --> 00:18:29.559 I mean, this guy should be getting one hundred million 279 00:18:29.599 --> 00:18:33.960 dollars a movie. First. I mean, he's single handedly just 280 00:18:34.279 --> 00:18:36.759 cranking money out of this franchise for the box office. 281 00:18:36.799 --> 00:18:38.920 And just like he's like, I'm gonna give you more 282 00:18:38.960 --> 00:18:40.240 in this scene, and then I'm gonna give you more. 283 00:18:40.240 --> 00:18:41.799 Then I'm gonna sing a song, and then I'm gonna 284 00:18:41.799 --> 00:18:43.880 give you more, and I'm gonna need you more and 285 00:18:43.960 --> 00:18:46.559 more and more. Kind of like a lot of Lisa's 286 00:18:46.799 --> 00:18:49.079 cheap consuch. All right, never mind, let's take a break. 287 00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:55.279 Joe'scalante Live from Coachella. Back after this Joe's Galante Live 288 00:18:55.319 --> 00:18:59.359 from Coachella. I had an idea, what about a movie 289 00:18:59.680 --> 00:19:04.759 star Jack Black and La Lisa from Black Pink. All Right, 290 00:19:04.799 --> 00:19:07.839 I'm gonna try to put that together. I said a 291 00:19:07.880 --> 00:19:12.839 text to Jack Black a couple of days ago. Yeah. 292 00:19:12.880 --> 00:19:17.480 I didn't hear back, but you know, maybe he doesn't 293 00:19:17.519 --> 00:19:22.359 know that I'm single handedly holding his movie afloat. Did 294 00:19:22.359 --> 00:19:24.400 I see another movie? You're asking? Yes, I did. I 295 00:19:24.440 --> 00:19:26.799 didn't just go see Minecraft. I saw a movie called 296 00:19:26.799 --> 00:19:30.880 Penguin Lessons. The Penguin Lessons Steve Kochan. This is a 297 00:19:30.880 --> 00:19:35.759 lovable little film about a professor that gets a job 298 00:19:35.960 --> 00:19:44.359 in Argentina as an English teacher and he ends up 299 00:19:44.759 --> 00:19:54.200 smuggling a penguin into his faculty residence and everybody learns 300 00:19:54.200 --> 00:19:56.559 a lesson from this penguin. Okay, it sounds terrible, but 301 00:19:56.599 --> 00:20:01.400 it's really good, So I recommend The Penguin Lessons Coogan 302 00:20:02.559 --> 00:20:06.599 and not playing in the theaters anymore, not in very 303 00:20:06.640 --> 00:20:09.079 many theaters. I had to dredge all the way out 304 00:20:09.119 --> 00:20:13.359 to the cinema and Orange to see this one, and 305 00:20:14.480 --> 00:20:18.000 it was worth it. It's really good, just life affirming, 306 00:20:18.799 --> 00:20:23.359 and the penguin was pretty good. He's no parrot like 307 00:20:23.400 --> 00:20:25.759 my talking parent. He doesn't talk like my talking parrot, 308 00:20:26.400 --> 00:20:32.160 but he's got some personality. And then, okay, why did 309 00:20:32.160 --> 00:20:35.000 I see it? Because it's a true story. This really 310 00:20:35.000 --> 00:20:38.559 happened to some guy teaching English down in Argentina and 311 00:20:38.640 --> 00:20:40.960 he adopted a penguin like he was trying to press 312 00:20:41.000 --> 00:20:44.359 this girl on a date. And there was a penguin 313 00:20:44.680 --> 00:20:46.759 like stuck in an oil slick of some kind, and 314 00:20:46.799 --> 00:20:50.720 he said, let's wash it off and you'll see what 315 00:20:50.759 --> 00:20:52.359 a hero I am, and you'll sleep with me. That's 316 00:20:52.359 --> 00:20:55.640 basically the premise of the movie. And then she just says, 317 00:20:55.680 --> 00:20:58.119 you know what, I'm married. I can't do this, and 318 00:20:58.160 --> 00:21:03.680 then you know, then he's got the Penguin. Doesn't sound 319 00:21:03.720 --> 00:21:07.880 like enough of a FIR movie, Well, Steve Coogan, it is, 320 00:21:10.000 --> 00:21:12.000 but it's not streaming yet, so I don't know where 321 00:21:12.000 --> 00:21:14.039 you're gonna see it. Not that you see the movies 322 00:21:14.279 --> 00:21:16.680 I recommend, but some people do. Some people say I 323 00:21:16.680 --> 00:21:19.039 don't know what to see. Joe tell me what to see, 324 00:21:20.000 --> 00:21:25.119 so I do what's trending right now. Movies coming up, Thunderbolts, 325 00:21:25.200 --> 00:21:28.240 don't know a lot about this one, The Fantastic four 326 00:21:28.400 --> 00:21:32.880 First Steps. What is that, baby, Fantastic Fours? Oh yeah, 327 00:21:33.039 --> 00:21:35.319 we have the final reckoning of Mission Impossible coming up. 328 00:21:36.559 --> 00:21:43.400 And there's a Vietnamese film called How to Tran Your Dragon. 329 00:21:44.079 --> 00:21:46.640 I'll wait a second, No, that's how to Train Your Dragon. 330 00:21:46.640 --> 00:21:52.279 I'm sorry, I've read that wrong. Okay, but there are 331 00:21:52.279 --> 00:21:57.559 a lot of Vietnamese movies these days. There's one called 332 00:21:57.559 --> 00:22:00.559 The Corpse that I'm very curious about. But I haven't 333 00:22:00.599 --> 00:22:02.680 seen it yet, but when I see it, I will 334 00:22:02.720 --> 00:22:05.920 let you know. All right, now, we're going to the 335 00:22:05.920 --> 00:22:11.480 defamation portion of our show today. You know I like defamation, Well, 336 00:22:11.480 --> 00:22:16.200 I don't like defamation, but defamation cases are interesting. So 337 00:22:16.359 --> 00:22:20.440 this one involves President Trump. Have you heard of him. Well, 338 00:22:21.079 --> 00:22:25.559 President Trump said some things when he should have not. 339 00:22:26.359 --> 00:22:32.119 You don't believe it. Yes, sometimes he does this. Well, 340 00:22:32.119 --> 00:22:37.559 there's a couple guys named the Central Park five, Okay, 341 00:22:38.680 --> 00:22:42.880 and they were federal judge has ruled that a defamation 342 00:22:43.039 --> 00:22:50.240 case brought against Donald Trump by the Central Park five 343 00:22:50.440 --> 00:22:55.839 may go forward, meaning the judge said, hey, this case 344 00:22:55.920 --> 00:23:00.480 isn't bad, so we are gonna let it go forward. 345 00:23:02.480 --> 00:23:05.359 Every time there's a lawsuit, there's a portion of the 346 00:23:05.400 --> 00:23:08.920 lawsuit where you can file for some rejudgment. That's where 347 00:23:08.960 --> 00:23:10.920 you file something to say, you know what, this is 348 00:23:10.920 --> 00:23:13.519 a defamation because of AB and C. They might say, 349 00:23:13.839 --> 00:23:19.680 like Donald Trump might have said that was just my opinion, 350 00:23:20.480 --> 00:23:22.680 and because what he said he said something he shouldn't 351 00:23:22.720 --> 00:23:24.920 have said, and he said it during the debate during 352 00:23:24.920 --> 00:23:27.720 the twenty twenty four election, and so he might say 353 00:23:27.920 --> 00:23:31.000 this is I want to toss the judge please toss 354 00:23:31.039 --> 00:23:33.279 this out. I was just expressing opinion, and opinion is 355 00:23:33.319 --> 00:23:37.599 protected by the First Amendment. Bam. And then the judge 356 00:23:37.640 --> 00:23:40.039 would say, oh, yeah, you're right, and you'd throw it out. 357 00:23:40.319 --> 00:23:43.119 But the judge said, I'm gonna let this go forward. Now, 358 00:23:43.160 --> 00:23:45.599 you got to be careful because it's not even really 359 00:23:46.160 --> 00:23:49.079 possible to judge whether in these cases against the Trump 360 00:23:49.119 --> 00:23:52.319 whether it's like if they're really following the law yet, 361 00:23:52.359 --> 00:23:54.839 because it's lately it seems like, well, if they were 362 00:23:54.880 --> 00:23:58.799 appointed by Republican Trump, is whatever he did is okay. 363 00:23:59.160 --> 00:24:04.759 If they were appointed by a Democrat, then Donald Trump 364 00:24:04.880 --> 00:24:07.240 is a bad person. So it's really an ugly time 365 00:24:07.480 --> 00:24:10.559 in jurisprudence because you can't. But luckily you have me 366 00:24:10.720 --> 00:24:13.400 to tell you if this is a case that should 367 00:24:13.440 --> 00:24:19.279 go forward or not. Federal judge ruled that the defamation 368 00:24:19.480 --> 00:24:23.680 lawsuit can proceed. So these five men who were wrongfully 369 00:24:23.720 --> 00:24:27.720 convicted and later exonerated in the infamous nineteen eighty nine 370 00:24:27.799 --> 00:24:31.359 Central Park attack, alleged the former president made false and 371 00:24:31.400 --> 00:24:36.039 defamatory statements about them during a presidential debate. Specifically, they 372 00:24:36.039 --> 00:24:38.400 can test statements made during the September twenty fourth debate, 373 00:24:38.440 --> 00:24:41.599 where he misstated facts about their case, claiming that they 374 00:24:41.680 --> 00:24:46.200 admitted they said they pled guilty. In reality, they never 375 00:24:46.279 --> 00:24:49.839 pled guilty and were exonerated based on DNA evidence. Here's 376 00:24:49.880 --> 00:24:52.599 what he said. This is him talking. They come up 377 00:24:52.599 --> 00:24:55.559 with these things like what she said, going back many 378 00:24:55.599 --> 00:24:58.200 many years when a lot of people, including Mayor Bloomberg 379 00:24:58.240 --> 00:25:01.000 agreed with me on the Central Park five, they admitted 380 00:25:01.279 --> 00:25:03.759 they said they played guilty. And I said, well, if 381 00:25:03.759 --> 00:25:07.160 they played guilty, they badly hurt a person, killed a 382 00:25:07.200 --> 00:25:11.920 person ultimately. And if they played guilty then they plied, 383 00:25:12.160 --> 00:25:14.000 then they played We're not guilty. You know, it's just 384 00:25:14.039 --> 00:25:18.599 a bunch of like mutterings. During a debate, a lot 385 00:25:18.640 --> 00:25:21.720 of things get said. But wow, you got to be 386 00:25:21.759 --> 00:25:24.240 careful and you say stuff like that, You've got to 387 00:25:24.240 --> 00:25:30.799 do your homework. So, uh, where do you think that 388 00:25:31.240 --> 00:25:33.839 is that? Okay? Here? What would it be defamation? No, 389 00:25:34.000 --> 00:25:39.640 I'm just saying my uh, I'm just saying, in my opinion, 390 00:25:40.160 --> 00:25:44.519 here's my opinion. But he's the things he's saying here 391 00:25:44.599 --> 00:25:46.920 I think are gonna get him in trouble because he's 392 00:25:46.960 --> 00:25:53.119 saying things that are objectively like facts. So the judge 393 00:25:53.160 --> 00:26:00.440 said that he said that these are these these it's statements, 394 00:26:00.440 --> 00:26:03.440 he said, can be objectively determined to be false. They're 395 00:26:03.480 --> 00:26:08.279 not opinions, they're just false things. So these statements must 396 00:26:08.359 --> 00:26:12.319 be construed as facts, not opinions. So he said, I 397 00:26:12.319 --> 00:26:17.240 didn't even read his motion to dismiss based on you know, 398 00:26:17.279 --> 00:26:20.119 summary for summary judgment, but I know what it said. 399 00:26:20.440 --> 00:26:23.160 It said, I was just saying the president was just 400 00:26:23.160 --> 00:26:28.000 stating his opinion, you know, it was wrong, blah blah blah. 401 00:26:28.079 --> 00:26:32.880
