And I'm gay, so he really didn't think 27 00:01:03.799 --> 00:01:06.359 I should. So he basically dumped me as a friend 28 00:01:06.400 --> 00:01:08.200 and we haven't talked since. It's kind of a bummer, 29 00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:10.120 have a good day. 30 00:01:10.040 --> 00:01:10.840 Reach out to him. 31 00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:13.959 I feel like this has more to do with this 32 00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:17.959 particular candidate that like Trump means more to people who 33 00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:21.400 hate him than just political leaning. Like this is not 34 00:01:21.480 --> 00:01:24.519 about his policies, it's about who he is. And I 35 00:01:24.519 --> 00:01:27.560 think if people some people think, if you are going 36 00:01:27.640 --> 00:01:30.719 to give that guy your vote, then then you're signing 37 00:01:30.760 --> 00:01:34.680 off on all of the things that he is, not 38 00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:36.439 just his politics. 39 00:01:35.959 --> 00:01:39.280 Right, or his character and his willingness to be. 40 00:01:41.239 --> 00:01:41.680 I don't think. 41 00:01:42.079 --> 00:01:44.200 I don't think people felt I don't feel like democrats 42 00:01:44.200 --> 00:01:47.280 felt like this with George w Did they? 43 00:01:48.519 --> 00:01:48.959 I don't know. 44 00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:50.599 I don't kind of remember that there were we. 45 00:01:50.599 --> 00:01:53.840 Kind of remember that people really democrats really thought he 46 00:01:54.000 --> 00:01:57.239 was evil, like that he was evil. And now you now, 47 00:01:57.280 --> 00:01:58.760 I bet you'd love to have him back. 48 00:01:58.799 --> 00:01:59.519 It's exactly. 49 00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:03.200 You know, none of the people I associate with we 50 00:02:03.280 --> 00:02:06.159 never talk politics at all. It just doesn't come up. 51 00:02:06.439 --> 00:02:09.240 And then Shannon, there's a hole in your deodorant story 52 00:02:09.400 --> 00:02:11.479 because you said you look like the giants and you 53 00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:13.520 had to change your top, So it means you didn't 54 00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:16.280 have your deoderant on on the first top in the 55 00:02:16.319 --> 00:02:19.199 first change until come on. Now, let's come clean. 56 00:02:19.439 --> 00:02:21.439 No, that was I did. Why that's a hole in 57 00:02:21.479 --> 00:02:21.960 the story. 58 00:02:22.520 --> 00:02:25.599 I think he's thinking that I put I. 59 00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:27.560 Deodorant on the shirt before you put it on. 60 00:02:27.599 --> 00:02:29.919 That I don't know, but I you know, we've talked 61 00:02:29.919 --> 00:02:32.560 about it extensively off the air. I put my deodorant 62 00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:34.360 on at different times in the morning. Yeah, you like 63 00:02:34.400 --> 00:02:36.879 to mix it up. Yeah, sometimes before the shirt, sometimes 64 00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:37.560 it's after the shirt. 65 00:02:37.599 --> 00:02:39.280 Sometimes you put it on your shoulder instead of your 66 00:02:39.319 --> 00:02:41.280 arm pass Sometimes I just put h. 67 00:02:42.360 --> 00:02:47.120 Gary and Shannon. There have been some strained relationships, some 68 00:02:47.319 --> 00:02:51.120 very close to me strained relationships, and I've lost friends 69 00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:55.039 over it. You know, within the family, they're strained because 70 00:02:55.080 --> 00:02:58.520 we don't agree. I've actually lost friends for not being 71 00:02:58.599 --> 00:03:02.960 anti Trump enough, which is interesting. And I've had strained 72 00:03:03.000 --> 00:03:08.080 relationships within my close by family over elections. So I 73 00:03:08.159 --> 00:03:09.840 try not to do it. But what are you going 74 00:03:09.879 --> 00:03:10.080 to do? 75 00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:12.280 I do think that's an important point that you make 76 00:03:12.319 --> 00:03:17.719 about it may be specifically this candidate. Yeah, the things 77 00:03:17.719 --> 00:03:20.479 that he brings to it are so off putting for 78 00:03:20.520 --> 00:03:22.639 some people that others are willing to overlook. 79 00:03:22.759 --> 00:03:26.400 And the thing that I would say to take into 80 00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:32.199 consideration with that is, he's just open about it. 81 00:03:32.520 --> 00:03:35.800 We know all of his dirty details. 82 00:03:36.680 --> 00:03:40.319 There are politicians that we have had where you have 83 00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:42.439 not had such an open book. 84 00:03:43.639 --> 00:03:45.840 I use JFK as an example. 85 00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:52.000 JFK was not a good human, ran around on his wife, 86 00:03:52.240 --> 00:03:56.599 passed around Marilyn Monroe with this family, like the Kennedy's 87 00:03:56.599 --> 00:04:00.039 are a great example, like the crowning jewel of the 88 00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:03.759 Democratic Party. This family, there's a lot of dirty details 89 00:04:03.800 --> 00:04:04.159 about that. 90 00:04:04.280 --> 00:04:07.199 Yeah, on the surface, they were yeah. 91 00:04:06.840 --> 00:04:12.319 Right, So it's like, yes, yes, Trump can be classified 92 00:04:12.439 --> 00:04:16.759 as not a great person, but most politicians who rise 93 00:04:16.879 --> 00:04:21.680 to this level are not wholly clean and wonderful and 94 00:04:22.160 --> 00:04:22.959 above board. 95 00:04:23.639 --> 00:04:25.079 We just happened to know his skeleton. 96 00:04:25.160 --> 00:04:25.839 We just happened to. 97 00:04:25.879 --> 00:04:28.000 Hey, Gary and Channon, Happy Friday. 98 00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:28.680 Yeah. 99 00:04:28.800 --> 00:04:31.759 The topic of the whole political thing with friends and 100 00:04:31.879 --> 00:04:37.720 family is really a bummer. My brother is over the 101 00:04:37.759 --> 00:04:41.399 top with his political beliefs and thinks that he can 102 00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:48.000 just beat his opinion into everybody, and I had to 103 00:04:48.000 --> 00:04:52.480 cut him off for my own sanity. And it's really sad. Anyway, 104 00:04:52.759 --> 00:04:53.319 don't do that. 105 00:04:53.360 --> 00:04:53.639 Guys. 106 00:04:53.720 --> 00:04:55.480 Love each other, Yeah, love each other. 107 00:04:55.920 --> 00:04:58.480 That is an interesting point because there's you lose so 108 00:04:58.600 --> 00:05:02.240 much of the logical back and forth. We talked before 109 00:05:02.319 --> 00:05:07.720 about that CBS interview with Tony da Kopple and Tana 110 00:05:07.800 --> 00:05:10.639 Yashi Coats, if I'm saying it anywhere close to how 111 00:05:10.680 --> 00:05:14.759 he pronounces his name, and that it was an aggressive 112 00:05:14.920 --> 00:05:18.079 line of questioning on Tony d. Kopple's part, but it 113 00:05:18.199 --> 00:05:23.000 wasn't responded to with aggression on Coates's part. 114 00:05:23.079 --> 00:05:25.279 Now he had a thoughtful response. It was a thoughtful 115 00:05:25.360 --> 00:05:27.879 and it was a thoughtful part. It was an awkward conversation, 116 00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:30.360 but they were having it. Yeah, and they didn't make 117 00:05:30.360 --> 00:05:33.079 it awkward though, they just kept it not personal. 118 00:05:33.839 --> 00:05:35.560 Yeah, and that is a huge difference. 119 00:05:35.600 --> 00:05:39.720 Hey, Gari and Shannon talking about politics and friendships, I've 120 00:05:39.800 --> 00:05:41.680 kind of stayed away from one of my good friends 121 00:05:42.240 --> 00:05:47.680 because every time something anything happens, politics has brought up. 122 00:05:47.720 --> 00:05:50.319 I like discussing it, but I found that he's very 123 00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:53.600 closed off, one sided, very far to one side of. 124 00:05:53.560 --> 00:05:55.120 The political spectrum. 125 00:05:55.360 --> 00:05:58.399 So maybe it'll we'll get back together as better friends 126 00:05:58.439 --> 00:06:00.199 after the election than season is over. 127 00:06:00.399 --> 00:06:02.639 You know, play you guys, Happy Pratt, thank you, love to. 128 00:06:03.120 --> 00:06:07.720 Part of it is that as human it is our 129 00:06:07.800 --> 00:06:13.199 condition to when we're communicating with each other find likeness. 130 00:06:14.319 --> 00:06:17.959 It's just the way we are. Find your similarities. Sure, 131 00:06:18.040 --> 00:06:21.399 that's just a human, very human thing. And if you 132 00:06:21.519 --> 00:06:25.639 don't find those similarities with whatever you're talking about, it's 133 00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:31.000 uncomfortable as a human. Just down to our basics, right, 134 00:06:32.439 --> 00:06:34.759 because to survive you've got to have a team. You 135 00:06:34.839 --> 00:06:36.160 got to have a team most of the time. 136 00:06:36.279 --> 00:06:39.279 Yeah, Hi, Gary and Shannon, it's Pick and Glendale. And 137 00:06:39.360 --> 00:06:42.839 I default to Thomas Jefferson when he said, I have 138 00:06:42.959 --> 00:06:48.040 never considered a difference in politics, religion, or philosophy as 139 00:06:48.160 --> 00:06:50.240 reason for withdrawing from a friend. 140 00:06:51.079 --> 00:06:51.639 It's funny. 141 00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:54.199 When my dad and I would get together, we didn't 142 00:06:54.519 --> 00:06:55.600 This is may surprise you. 143 00:06:55.680 --> 00:06:58.160 We didn't say a lot. There wasn't a lot. 144 00:06:58.279 --> 00:07:03.399 I mean, the conversations that we have never revolved around politics, 145 00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:06.680 no ever. And I don't know if it's it. He 146 00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:08.680 didn't want to hear it. I didn't want to hear it. 147 00:07:08.759 --> 00:07:11.360 We just never talked about politics, not one. 148 00:07:11.519 --> 00:07:14.800 That's what sports are for kids, That's what football season 149 00:07:14.920 --> 00:07:20.399 is for. In the great words of Sammy Kershaw, politics, religion, 150 00:07:20.600 --> 00:07:22.680 and her can't talk about any of those. 151 00:07:23.000 --> 00:07:27.000 I just saw Vice President Harris answering some questions for 152 00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:31.000 the first time that I can remember in months from reporters. 153 00:07:31.079 --> 00:07:34.040 She's in Houston getting ready for her big rally today 154 00:07:34.040 --> 00:07:35.879 with Beyonce and Willie Nelson. 155 00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:39.439 Is it weird that they're both in Texas? Trump and Austin. 156 00:07:39.439 --> 00:07:41.079 Very weird that they're both in Texas? 157 00:07:41.480 --> 00:07:42.439 Was that by design? 158 00:07:42.680 --> 00:07:46.399 I don't think so, But it's weird because they don't 159 00:07:46.439 --> 00:07:49.920 have to be there. Your time is valuable right now, 160 00:07:50.360 --> 00:07:52.759 Why are you going to states where you're not the 161 00:07:53.399 --> 00:07:56.920 outcome is not in question? She says that she's there 162 00:07:56.959 --> 00:08:01.120 to talk about abortion. She's also there to help the 163 00:08:01.240 --> 00:08:05.759 congressman who is running against Senator Ted Cruz. I remember 164 00:08:05.800 --> 00:08:10.399 his name right away. Trump is in Austin to talk 165 00:08:10.439 --> 00:08:14.680 about immigration. That a perfect backdrop for him to talk 166 00:08:14.720 --> 00:08:17.879 about that. The question is why would the campaign for 167 00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:20.920 Harris put her in Texas when that's an issue that 168 00:08:22.519 --> 00:08:25.560 I mean, Texas is at the forefront of the immigration 169 00:08:25.720 --> 00:08:29.319 issue and she scores very low on that issue. 170 00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:32.159 Why go there and to talk about abortion? 171 00:08:32.720 --> 00:08:36.240 They put right, yes, I mean there are to be 172 00:08:36.320 --> 00:08:37.559 combative about it. 173 00:08:37.600 --> 00:08:40.759 She is, and she's that's why she's there. 174 00:08:40.840 --> 00:08:42.720 She wants to point out that she doesn't want America 175 00:08:42.759 --> 00:08:46.080 to become Texas when it comes to abortion law. But 176 00:08:46.159 --> 00:08:48.039 also Trump is going to be there and say he 177 00:08:48.080 --> 00:08:50.159 doesn't want America to become Texas when it comes to 178 00:08:50.240 --> 00:08:51.399 the immigration problem. 179 00:08:51.799 --> 00:08:56.080 Biden, by the way, Joe Biden is in Arizona today. 180 00:08:56.639 --> 00:08:57.279 Yeah, he was. 181 00:08:57.519 --> 00:08:59.720 He was doing a big apology. We talked a little 182 00:08:59.720 --> 00:09:05.159 bit about that yesterday, an apology for the taking of 183 00:09:05.759 --> 00:09:11.279 Native children and putting them in schools, trying to mainstream 184 00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:15.440 them that have resulted in horrific abuse in some cases. 185 00:09:15.879 --> 00:09:18.440 I think there were a couple few hundred deaths that 186 00:09:18.480 --> 00:09:19.559 were associated with. 187 00:09:19.480 --> 00:09:21.440 That whole ugly chapter. 188 00:09:21.799 --> 00:09:25.480 Bad, very bad. A couple of things that are going 189 00:09:25.480 --> 00:09:30.000 on in terms of most recent news. The La Times 190 00:09:30.440 --> 00:09:32.919 back in September said they weren't going to endorse anybody 191 00:09:33.000 --> 00:09:36.440 in the presidential race. The Washington Post came out today 192 00:09:36.559 --> 00:09:40.080 and said the same thing, that the newspaper is getting 193 00:09:40.080 --> 00:09:44.960 out of the business of endorsing candidates in presidential elections. 194 00:09:45.960 --> 00:09:48.639 They said that even though this one is probably or 195 00:09:48.799 --> 00:09:52.559 arguably one of the most important elections of the century, 196 00:09:53.000 --> 00:09:55.720 they said the exact same thing back in nineteen sixty 197 00:09:55.840 --> 00:09:58.679 and realized that some of that rhetoric is coming around 198 00:09:58.720 --> 00:10:02.000 to haunt them, spose, And then The New York Times 199 00:10:02.080 --> 00:10:03.840 just put up a story a short time ago that 200 00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:09.000 said Chinese hackers are believed to have burrowed into American 201 00:10:09.000 --> 00:10:13.799 communications networks, targeting phones used by former President Trump and 202 00:10:13.879 --> 00:10:14.639 Senator JD. 203 00:10:14.799 --> 00:10:15.159 Vance. 204 00:10:15.720 --> 00:10:19.799 They're trying to figure out if which communications, if any, 205 00:10:20.279 --> 00:10:24.720 were taken or observed by this sophisticated hack of these 206 00:10:24.799 --> 00:10:28.200 telecom systems. The type of information on phones used by 207 00:10:28.200 --> 00:10:31.679 a presidential candidate could be something like who they call, 208 00:10:31.919 --> 00:10:34.799 who they text, how often they communicate with certain people, 209 00:10:34.840 --> 00:10:37.440 how long they talk to those people. And they said 210 00:10:37.440 --> 00:10:40.360 that that kind of information could be highly valuable to 211 00:10:40.399 --> 00:10:43.679 an adversary like China. This sort of communications data that 212 00:10:43.720 --> 00:10:47.159 could be even more useful if they could observe it 213 00:10:47.240 --> 00:10:49.399 in real time, if somehow they were able to see 214 00:10:49.399 --> 00:10:53.559 exactly what was going on. You mentioned this the comment 215 00:10:53.600 --> 00:10:57.120 about word salad. Sometimes Kamala Harris gets in this, She 216 00:10:57.159 --> 00:11:01.799 gets caught up in trying to over explain things and 217 00:11:01.879 --> 00:11:02.799 loses people. 218 00:11:03.320 --> 00:11:04.759 I don't find it to be that. 219 00:11:04.960 --> 00:11:07.440 I find it hurt for her to be answering a 220 00:11:07.559 --> 00:11:09.720 question just for the sake of answering the question. But 221 00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:13.399 saying nothing. That's a nuh yeah. That works ocause I 222 00:11:13.480 --> 00:11:16.840 like when I talk to people about things that I 223 00:11:16.879 --> 00:11:20.240 don't fully grasp, whether it be plumbing or finances, I 224 00:11:21.200 --> 00:11:25.840 find it to be an over You're explaining something to 225 00:11:25.879 --> 00:11:29.440 me in great detail that I don't have the bandwidth 226 00:11:29.559 --> 00:11:30.360 four right. 227 00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:32.720 That's not how I feel when she talks. 228 00:11:32.759 --> 00:11:35.480 I feel like she says many, many words, but nothing, 229 00:11:36.480 --> 00:11:37.080 sometimes not. 230 00:11:37.039 --> 00:11:38.440 Getting into specifics. Right. 231 00:11:39.080 --> 00:11:41.360 There is an all Washington Post article today that talks 232 00:11:41.440 --> 00:11:47.200 specifically about how Trump talks. It's called abrupt shifts, profane insults, 233 00:11:47.240 --> 00:11:50.159 confusing sentences, and I wanted to read a paragraph from 234 00:11:50.159 --> 00:11:53.120 it because I think you could say this about both 235 00:11:53.120 --> 00:11:55.960 of the candidates for different reasons, but for about both 236 00:11:55.960 --> 00:11:58.320 of them. This is the paragraph from this article. He 237 00:11:58.480 --> 00:12:03.000 jumps more abruptly between subjects and from his script to improvising, 238 00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:07.080 sometimes offering what sound like non sequiturs. He occasionally mixes 239 00:12:07.120 --> 00:12:09.399 up words or names, and some of his sentences are 240 00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:13.559 meaningless or nonsensical. As he delivered more speeches in October, 241 00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:16.120 he has made multiple slip ups per day, and he 242 00:12:16.200 --> 00:12:19.879 has become more profane in public. That's the Washington Post 243 00:12:20.519 --> 00:12:23.879 taking down Donald Trump. And again, all of those things 244 00:12:23.879 --> 00:12:24.960 are absolutely true. 245 00:12:25.039 --> 00:12:26.799 I don't understand the profanity thing either. 246 00:12:27.240 --> 00:12:31.519 Why he's doing it, Yeah, because of the reaction from 247 00:12:31.559 --> 00:12:31.879 the crowd. 248 00:12:32.000 --> 00:12:33.559 Yeah, that doesn't make it right. 249 00:12:33.799 --> 00:12:37.360 When he called her an s vice president, the crowd 250 00:12:37.360 --> 00:12:42.000 went nuts. It's totally unnecessary, but the crowd went nuts. 251 00:12:42.720 --> 00:12:45.799 So anyway, he referred to it. I remember, if you 252 00:12:46.519 --> 00:12:48.600 saw the cut, I think you may have actually been out. 253 00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:51.639 But when he did an interview with Andrew Schultz, the comedian, 254 00:12:51.840 --> 00:12:55.799 and he talked about weaving, that's what he described. He said, 255 00:12:55.799 --> 00:12:59.279 he doesn't lose train of thought. He just weaves, bobs 256 00:12:59.320 --> 00:13:01.799 and weaves like a kind of but you explained it, 257 00:13:01.919 --> 00:13:03.600 and I do a thing called the weave, the weave. 258 00:13:03.919 --> 00:13:06.600 And there are those that are fair that say this 259 00:13:06.679 --> 00:13:10.360 guy is so genius, and then others would say, oh, 260 00:13:10.440 --> 00:13:13.919 he rambled. I don't ramble questory. What you do is 261 00:13:13.960 --> 00:13:15.240 you weave things and you do it. 262 00:13:17.120 --> 00:13:18.679 He doesn't get that they're laughing at him. 263 00:13:18.720 --> 00:13:21.559 But he talks about he'll go off of the teleprompter, 264 00:13:22.080 --> 00:13:24.320 he'll weave a story, He'll go all the way around 265 00:13:24.320 --> 00:13:26.919 and then comes back. And it takes a genius. He 266 00:13:27.000 --> 00:13:30.639 says to remember where he left off, when in fact, 267 00:13:30.840 --> 00:13:34.200 all it takes is someone to not advance the teleprompter. 268 00:13:35.240 --> 00:13:37.519 Right, That's that's the genius that's involved. 269 00:13:37.799 --> 00:13:42.320 All right, a little bit more about these political relationships 270 00:13:42.320 --> 00:13:45.000 that people are losing, the relationships that people are losing 271 00:13:45.200 --> 00:13:48.360 because of politics, and why cutting off your parents is 272 00:13:48.399 --> 00:13:49.480 such a big deal now. 273 00:13:49.320 --> 00:13:51.919 Too, Yeah, I don't understand this at all. 274 00:13:51.960 --> 00:13:55.120 Want to find happiness in the to find Well, it's 275 00:13:55.360 --> 00:13:57.440 twelve o'clock hour, that's what I've heard, you know what 276 00:13:57.480 --> 00:13:57.799 I mean? 277 00:13:58.320 --> 00:14:02.080 Also, what you learn is a traffic's going to. 278 00:14:02.080 --> 00:14:03.279 Be the nightmare tonight. 279 00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:07.159 We've got, of course, a World Series Game one at 280 00:14:07.200 --> 00:14:10.519 Dodgers Stadium. As you heard Debra mention fiveh eight first 281 00:14:10.600 --> 00:14:12.720 pitch there at that game, there's a lot of stuff 282 00:14:12.759 --> 00:14:13.840 going on beforehand. 283 00:14:14.240 --> 00:14:14.879 That what I think. 284 00:14:14.960 --> 00:14:17.559 That is what I think I love about the World Series, 285 00:14:17.759 --> 00:14:22.120 regardless of who's playing in it, is the pomp and circumstance, 286 00:14:22.200 --> 00:14:25.960 the honorings that they do before the game. So Jack 287 00:14:26.000 --> 00:14:28.279 Flaherty will take them out for the Dodgers, Garrett Cole 288 00:14:28.480 --> 00:14:31.399 for the Yankees. Of course, the Chargers will host the 289 00:14:31.399 --> 00:14:32.799 Saints on Sunday afternoon. 290 00:14:32.840 --> 00:14:33.360 It's so far. 291 00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:36.960 But at the Coliseum tonight, You've got USC hosting Rutgers, 292 00:14:37.399 --> 00:14:40.519 You've got the Lakers hosting the Phoenix Suns tonight. 293 00:14:40.679 --> 00:14:42.600 It's going to be a busy time if you're out 294 00:14:42.600 --> 00:14:43.120 on the freeway. 295 00:14:43.879 --> 00:14:48.799 More Americans are completely cutting off their parents. It's called 296 00:14:48.840 --> 00:14:53.519 the no contact movement. It has its proponents and its detractors. 297 00:14:53.960 --> 00:14:58.759 Those in favor say people should disentangle from unhealthy relationships 298 00:14:58.799 --> 00:15:01.720 without shame, and that family should be held at the 299 00:15:01.720 --> 00:15:05.720 same standards as friends and romantic partners. Those against it 300 00:15:05.799 --> 00:15:09.360 say the bar for what constitutes familial trauma has become 301 00:15:09.399 --> 00:15:12.759 too low. Yes, and some kids who cut off all 302 00:15:12.840 --> 00:15:18.840 contact are being selfish. Even even George Gascon yesterday said 303 00:15:19.080 --> 00:15:22.120 that the Menandez brothers grew up in a dysfunctional household, 304 00:15:22.360 --> 00:15:25.360 therefore they should not well, this is not what he said, 305 00:15:25.399 --> 00:15:28.279 but this is the insinuation. Therefore they should not be 306 00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:32.000 accountable for murdering their parents. It was dysfunctional. What home 307 00:15:32.080 --> 00:15:36.720 isn't dysfunctional? At some point there is that word selfish, 308 00:15:36.799 --> 00:15:38.399 by the way, is the one I keyed in on. 309 00:15:38.559 --> 00:15:40.039 I know that not everybody does that. 310 00:15:40.120 --> 00:15:42.240 I know that there are there are people who do 311 00:15:42.279 --> 00:15:44.960 have awful circumstances, and they grow up and they want 312 00:15:44.960 --> 00:15:46.960 to get away from their parents and that I can't 313 00:15:46.960 --> 00:15:49.679 imagine what that's like. I mean literally, I can't imagine 314 00:15:49.679 --> 00:15:52.120 what's that that's like because I never lived that, but 315 00:15:52.159 --> 00:15:56.120 I've heard stories. But there is there is this trend, 316 00:15:57.120 --> 00:15:59.080 and you kind of pointed to it there in the 317 00:15:59.159 --> 00:16:04.559 suggestion that sometimes we make Sometimes you make a mountain 318 00:16:04.559 --> 00:16:08.799 out of a molehill, and it's because you're selfish. Of course, 319 00:16:08.919 --> 00:16:12.080 this extends to the family. 320 00:16:12.240 --> 00:16:17.559 When I say this, I mean the failure of Americans 321 00:16:17.679 --> 00:16:20.200 or people in general in twenty twenty four, the failure 322 00:16:20.320 --> 00:16:28.600 of people to sit in uncomfortability, whether it be really anything, 323 00:16:28.879 --> 00:16:30.480 any anything uncomfortable. 324 00:16:30.519 --> 00:16:30.720 I mean. 325 00:16:30.759 --> 00:16:32.600 The other theme that we've been talking about is the 326 00:16:33.000 --> 00:16:37.200 uncomfortability of political discussions with somebody. If you know that 327 00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:39.440 that person wants to talk politics, but you still want 328 00:16:39.480 --> 00:16:41.200 to carry on a relationship with them. 329 00:16:41.799 --> 00:16:43.039 You're gonna You're gonna sit there. 330 00:16:43.399 --> 00:16:44.799 You know, you don't have to engage, you don't have 331 00:16:44.799 --> 00:16:46.919 to argue, and you don't have to cut off the relationship. 332 00:16:47.039 --> 00:16:48.399 But there are gonna be times we're it's gonna be 333 00:16:48.440 --> 00:16:51.919 uncomfortable and grandma's gonna yell about her, and grandma's gonna 334 00:16:51.960 --> 00:16:53.440 yell about him, and vice versa. 335 00:16:53.519 --> 00:16:54.120 I mean, it's. 336 00:16:55.559 --> 00:16:58.200 That's you have to be willing to overcome some of 337 00:16:58.240 --> 00:17:01.360 the uncomfortability to sit through the good stuff. 338 00:17:01.559 --> 00:17:03.919 I kind of felt prey, you get yourself kind of 339 00:17:03.919 --> 00:17:08.039 worked up in my regard it was flying. A handful 340 00:17:08.079 --> 00:17:10.599 of years ago, I decided to start taking like the 341 00:17:10.640 --> 00:17:14.079 lowest dosage xanax, but still a xanax for. 342 00:17:14.119 --> 00:17:17.640 Flights because I got I was a nervous flyer.

The one time, I mean I stopped. 347 00:17:33.400 --> 00:17:36.359 I had a dental work done at one point where 348 00:17:36.440 --> 00:17:38.119 the oh, that's not okay. 349 00:17:38.200 --> 00:17:41.359 No, are you talking about novacane wearing off?

I 379 00:18:59.039 --> 00:19:01.640 know where they all stand, but I just don't do it. 380 00:19:01.640 --> 00:19:05.640 It ruins good relationships, and that's what you have to 381 00:19:05.680 --> 00:19:06.559 do your show. 382 00:19:06.759 --> 00:19:07.079 Thank you. 383 00:19:07.240 --> 00:19:08.400 I love Palomar Mountains. 384 00:19:08.519 --> 00:19:14.160 Beautiful relationship with you to have changed. I absolutely love 385 00:19:14.200 --> 00:19:17.039 you guys. I think I've been listening since you started. 386 00:19:17.119 --> 00:19:17.359 Thank you. 387 00:19:17.480 --> 00:19:21.519 I've been listening to the station since Ojay. But I 388 00:19:21.920 --> 00:19:24.319 work and I listened to this while I'm working, and 389 00:19:24.359 --> 00:19:28.079 you guys used to make me laugh and just entertainment. 390 00:19:28.200 --> 00:19:30.839 But now it's hard to listen to you guys, And 391 00:19:31.799 --> 00:19:36.680 I don't know. I hope this election well, anyway, have 392 00:19:36.759 --> 00:19:37.359 a good weekend. 393 00:19:37.480 --> 00:19:39.920 Let me say this, we are in the salad days, 394 00:19:39.960 --> 00:19:41.519 and I don't mean that in the good way. I 395 00:19:41.559 --> 00:19:45.039 mean no, let me rephrase that, we're in the roasted 396 00:19:45.160 --> 00:19:50.200 beat and asparagus days. Like these are things we got. 397 00:19:50.240 --> 00:19:52.920 We have to be on top of this type of news. 398 00:19:54.200 --> 00:19:56.400 It's not that we get a rise out of talking 399 00:19:56.440 --> 00:20:00.839 about them. We too feel that weight. We don't love this. 400 00:20:01.359 --> 00:20:04.200 We don't love coming in here and talking about politics 401 00:20:04.599 --> 00:20:06.839
