Downtown, 6 00:00:17.359 --> 00:00:19.480 there is a rally that is going on that was 7 00:00:19.719 --> 00:00:25.879 put together by the Service Employees International Union SCIU. They 8 00:00:25.879 --> 00:00:28.960 are there because they are protesting the detention of one 9 00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:32.320 of their union leaders today. A guy named David Wuerta 10 00:00:32.399 --> 00:00:35.439 was arrested Friday and apparently has been charged with federal 11 00:00:35.439 --> 00:00:36.200 crimes already. 12 00:00:36.200 --> 00:00:36.560 Today. 13 00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:41.079 The US Attorney for the Central District said that David 14 00:00:41.119 --> 00:00:46.560 Wuerta was preventing federal vehicles from entering a federal property 15 00:00:46.679 --> 00:00:49.119 on Friday and that's got into a shoving match with 16 00:00:50.399 --> 00:00:53.439 agents there and that's why he was taken into custody. 17 00:00:53.799 --> 00:00:58.280 They said that SEIU specifically is also taking part in 18 00:00:58.439 --> 00:01:02.719 rallies in Atlanta, New York City, Pittsburgh, San Francisco, and DC. 19 00:01:03.399 --> 00:01:06.159 They said more than a dozen cities in total are 20 00:01:06.200 --> 00:01:11.680 expected to see some of these union created protests that. 21 00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:13.280 Are going to be taking place throughout the course of 22 00:01:13.280 --> 00:01:15.040 the day and the Dolores. 23 00:01:15.079 --> 00:01:19.200 I was referring to Dolores Werta is expected to be 24 00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:23.680 at the gathering today at noon, ninety five years old. 25 00:01:23.719 --> 00:01:26.799 I believe, I know she was in, but she always 26 00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:29.359 brings out a crowd, obviously for her background and the 27 00:01:29.480 --> 00:01:32.560 legit protesting and work that she has done for the laboring. 28 00:01:32.599 --> 00:01:34.920 And it's about time for swamp watch. 29 00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:37.719 Let's get into the whole ketamine thing, which I didn't 30 00:01:37.719 --> 00:01:40.000 expect we would ever say, but here we go. 31 00:01:39.719 --> 00:01:42.040 Go go ahead, elm, shut up, don't worry, which means 32 00:01:42.079 --> 00:01:45.040 I'm a cheat and aliah. And when I'm not kissing babies, 33 00:01:45.280 --> 00:01:48.319 I'm stealing their LOLLIPOPX. Here we got. The real problem 34 00:01:48.480 --> 00:01:51.519 is that our leaders are done. The other side never quits. 35 00:01:51.599 --> 00:01:55.400 So what I'm not going anywhere? 36 00:01:55.480 --> 00:01:56.560 So that now you. 37 00:01:56.680 --> 00:01:59.439 Train the swat, I can imagine what can be and 38 00:01:59.480 --> 00:02:01.719 be on burdened by what has been. You know, Americans 39 00:02:01.719 --> 00:02:05.040 have always been going act president, but they're not stupid. 40 00:02:05.079 --> 00:02:07.959 A political plunder is when a politician actually tells the truth. 41 00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:10.639 Why have the people voted for you were not watch? 42 00:02:10.919 --> 00:02:11.840 You're all canaoid? 43 00:02:12.080 --> 00:02:17.360 So ketamine is I don't think a secret Elon Musk's 44 00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:20.039 favorite drug, and it seems to be everywhere. You hear 45 00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:22.919 about it all the time, very zeitgeist right now. And 46 00:02:23.120 --> 00:02:25.599 this may be according to some people, and you know, 47 00:02:25.759 --> 00:02:28.360 one of the main reasons why there was a falling 48 00:02:28.400 --> 00:02:30.800 out with Trump and Musk, or why Elon Musk would 49 00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:34.120 never have the president's full respect, because the President doesn't 50 00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:37.400 like people who I think, in his estimation, he would 51 00:02:37.400 --> 00:02:41.319 think are weak enough to succumb to drug alcohol use abuse. 52 00:02:41.639 --> 00:02:44.240 He's very he's been very adamant about that for a 53 00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:47.159 long time. Right, So there is that. 54 00:02:47.879 --> 00:02:50.719 But The New York Times reported recently that Elon Musk 55 00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:54.919 was taking so much ketamine during last year's presidential campaign 56 00:02:55.520 --> 00:02:58.919 that he told people it was causing him bladder problems, 57 00:02:58.960 --> 00:03:03.879 which is apparently a symptom of chronic ketamine use. This 58 00:03:04.639 --> 00:03:08.080 was a drug first synthesized in the sixties, has been 59 00:03:08.240 --> 00:03:13.759 long use for surgery, veterinary medicine included in that. Most 60 00:03:13.879 --> 00:03:18.680 recently it's been talked about alleviating symptoms of depression, especially 61 00:03:19.400 --> 00:03:24.960 in what they call treatment resistant populations. Clinics administer the 62 00:03:25.039 --> 00:03:28.280 drug and those are becoming more popular. These clinics and 63 00:03:28.319 --> 00:03:31.520 then the FDA approved the first ketamine drive nasal spray 64 00:03:31.560 --> 00:03:33.759 for depression about five years ago. 65 00:03:36.759 --> 00:03:40.400 So who the this? 66 00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:46.479 For some reason, it brings to mind fentanyl because fentinals 67 00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:50.000 are used in are fentinyls. Fentanyl is used in hospitals 68 00:03:50.439 --> 00:03:54.560 all the time, but it's used under such absolute. 69 00:03:54.159 --> 00:03:55.680 Very strict controls. 70 00:03:56.680 --> 00:04:01.240 It's when you start doing it a recationally, when you 71 00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:03.319 do it outside of a doctor's orders, that's when it's 72 00:04:03.319 --> 00:04:06.360 going to become deadly and potentially dating, potentially dangerous and 73 00:04:06.400 --> 00:04:07.240 oftentimes deadly. 74 00:04:07.319 --> 00:04:10.400 There was a and don't I don't want to lose 75 00:04:10.439 --> 00:04:13.159 you when I say this, But a person that is 76 00:04:13.240 --> 00:04:18.480 in the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives show, and he 77 00:04:19.079 --> 00:04:23.199 is it's an open not secret that he was addicted 78 00:04:23.240 --> 00:04:26.240 to fentanyl. And this week he did an interview where 79 00:04:26.279 --> 00:04:28.560 he says that he and his friends that liked fentanyl 80 00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:33.839 would buy fentanyl patches off cancer patients, that cancer patients 81 00:04:33.839 --> 00:04:38.279 would sell these things to casual drug users on the 82 00:04:38.319 --> 00:04:39.560 apps or whatever. 83 00:04:39.720 --> 00:04:40.480 To make money. 84 00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:44.720 That's what it's prescribed for people that have terminal cancer 85 00:04:45.040 --> 00:04:50.480 or right are in the hospital had real problems with pain. 86 00:04:50.639 --> 00:04:54.000 It's an alternative pain management tool as well if you 87 00:04:54.079 --> 00:04:57.600 can't handle other ones. But ketamine. They say. 88 00:04:59.360 --> 00:04:59.920 It is you. 89 00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:04.040 It was recreationally outside of medical supervision obviously, but that 90 00:05:04.120 --> 00:05:06.480 if you use it chronically, it can really do a 91 00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:09.160 number on your body, just like really anything else, but 92 00:05:10.120 --> 00:05:14.519 that serious and physical mental and physical health consequences, kidney 93 00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:18.759 and liver damage, memory loss, paranoia, all of that. There 94 00:05:18.959 --> 00:05:24.639 was a physician in psychiatry at University of California, San Diego, 95 00:05:24.720 --> 00:05:28.160 doctor Kevin Yang And says there is absolutely a role 96 00:05:28.199 --> 00:05:31.600 for ketamine to help people with depression and suicidal ideation. 97 00:05:32.279 --> 00:05:33.839 At the same time, it doesn't mean it's going to 98 00:05:33.879 --> 00:05:38.120 be safe for everyone. He co authored a story earlier 99 00:05:38.240 --> 00:05:41.120 this year, study Excuse Me. And in the study, it 100 00:05:41.160 --> 00:05:45.639 says that the percentage of Americans who reported ketamine use 101 00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:51.920 within the past year grew from eighty two percent over 102 00:05:51.959 --> 00:05:56.759 the five years previously eighty two percent. This increases were 103 00:05:56.800 --> 00:06:01.680 similar for both people with depression and people without. They 104 00:06:01.720 --> 00:06:06.000 say that this growth is driven both by more people 105 00:06:06.040 --> 00:06:10.160 seeking ketamine for clinical purposes and people using it recreationally. 106 00:06:10.720 --> 00:06:15.439 And I mean, is the stigmas removed from depression, people 107 00:06:15.480 --> 00:06:17.879 are going to seek out treatments for it more, which 108 00:06:17.920 --> 00:06:20.879 is why you're seeing Yeah, and this is why you're 109 00:06:20.879 --> 00:06:23.240 seeing these ketamine clinics pop up as well. 110 00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:29.120 How do you take it? What is it? What do 111 00:06:29.160 --> 00:06:29.759 you do with it? 112 00:06:29.800 --> 00:06:30.360 Is it a pill? 113 00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:33.040 Hot rails? Is it a hot rail? Do you heat it? 114 00:06:33.079 --> 00:06:36.279 Is there tinfoil? Is there? I think it's it's a pill. 115 00:06:36.720 --> 00:06:42.360 You can snort it? What is it? Sort? Pretty much? Yeah? 116 00:06:42.360 --> 00:06:43.800 But like how much of it do you snort? As 117 00:06:43.800 --> 00:06:45.879 it like a line of cocaine or yeah? 118 00:06:45.959 --> 00:06:46.759 Pretty much? Okay? 119 00:06:47.240 --> 00:06:49.319 And then and then. 120 00:06:49.199 --> 00:06:52.879 What does it do? Like is it just mellow you out? 121 00:06:53.160 --> 00:06:53.439 Is it? 122 00:06:53.519 --> 00:06:54.759 How does it help depression? 123 00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:57.600 Do you know? Yeah, it kind of just numbs you out. 124 00:06:57.639 --> 00:07:01.120 I wouldn't know, but you know, just take a very 125 00:07:01.240 --> 00:07:03.879 high lethargic Okay. 126 00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:06.199 Okay, so like like the similar effects of. 127 00:07:06.920 --> 00:07:11.399 Weed, Yeah, but like times ten really yeah. 128 00:07:11.439 --> 00:07:14.800 In the in the couch is actually well that's the thing. 129 00:07:16.279 --> 00:07:19.600 Really, it's like a couch cushion to the max.

It's stuck in my head and 153 00:08:36.759 --> 00:08:38.480 then it's stuck in your head and it's back. 154 00:08:38.600 --> 00:08:40.200 Welcome to nineteen sixty three. 155 00:08:42.720 --> 00:08:46.200 You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI 156 00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:47.080 AM six. 157 00:08:47.039 --> 00:08:53.320 Forty California has officially sued Trump the Trump administration over 158 00:08:53.320 --> 00:08:58.799 the deployment of National Guard troops to Los Angeles. Newsom 159 00:08:58.919 --> 00:09:02.799 threatened that state would be suing the administration yesterday, and 160 00:09:03.039 --> 00:09:06.960 here it is lawsuit arguing that Trump overstepped his authority 161 00:09:07.000 --> 00:09:11.639 when he called up the National Guard in defiance of Newsom, 162 00:09:12.240 --> 00:09:16.120 invoking a law that the president can do so under 163 00:09:16.120 --> 00:09:18.639 the threat from a foreign invasion or rebellion against the 164 00:09:18.720 --> 00:09:24.440 US government, Bonta saying, Attorney General Rob Bonta saying, in 165 00:09:24.480 --> 00:09:27.039 a statement, Let's be clear, there is no invasion, there 166 00:09:27.080 --> 00:09:30.600 is no rebellion. The president is trying to manufacture chaos 167 00:09:30.600 --> 00:09:33.279 and crisis on the ground for his own political ends. 168 00:09:34.360 --> 00:09:37.320 There are some protests that are apparently taking place in 169 00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:40.639 New York today. In fact, just a short time ago, 170 00:09:40.799 --> 00:09:44.120 there was a live shot outside the Trump Tower there 171 00:09:44.159 --> 00:09:46.600 in New York and there were people that were being arrested. 172 00:09:47.559 --> 00:09:50.399 It didn't look like I mean, people were just standing around, 173 00:09:50.440 --> 00:09:52.799 didn't look very active at all, but they could be 174 00:09:52.879 --> 00:09:54.120 arrested for trespassing. 175 00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:56.200 And that's just one of the areas. 176 00:09:56.240 --> 00:09:58.440 There have been rallies that have been planned by the 177 00:09:58.480 --> 00:10:02.120 service employees international Union in New York City, obviously here 178 00:10:02.159 --> 00:10:06.159 in LA that's taking place, Atlanta, Pittsburgh, San Francisco, and DC. 179 00:10:06.399 --> 00:10:09.960 Mayor Bass just said on Twitter X that she met 180 00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:14.320 with local immigrant rights groups and that she is reaffirming 181 00:10:14.440 --> 00:10:17.159 her opposition to the types of raids. 182 00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:18.480 That have occurred over the past few days. 183 00:10:19.240 --> 00:10:22.799 She said, I just met with LA immigrants rights community leaders. 184 00:10:22.840 --> 00:10:25.960 As we respond to this chaotic escalation by the administration, 185 00:10:26.120 --> 00:10:29.039 let me be absolutely clear, as the United City, we 186 00:10:29.080 --> 00:10:33.360 are demanding to end these lawless attacks on our communities. 187 00:10:33.440 --> 00:10:36.399 Los Angeles will always stand with everyone who calls our 188 00:10:36.399 --> 00:10:40.240 city home. The administration seems to be a term that 189 00:10:40.600 --> 00:10:44.000 is gaining momentum. The administration. It's like the Alliance or 190 00:10:44.039 --> 00:10:46.919 the Resistance. It's very Star Wars esque. Not that I've 191 00:10:47.000 --> 00:10:50.159 seen Star Wars, but it feels like we're making this 192 00:10:50.240 --> 00:10:53.360 into some sort of Galactica battle. 193 00:10:53.440 --> 00:10:55.759 It's in us versus them, and it's to continue it. 194 00:10:55.799 --> 00:10:57.159 That's how you get too. 195 00:10:57.240 --> 00:11:00.120 On yourself juvenile. To me, it's just it's so oh 196 00:11:00.360 --> 00:11:02.159 fantasy oriented, because on the. 197 00:11:02.120 --> 00:11:04.120 One hand, if. 198 00:11:05.720 --> 00:11:08.240 I don't know, Tom Holman reached out to Gavin Newsom 199 00:11:08.279 --> 00:11:10.840 or Gavin Newsom reached out to President Trump or something 200 00:11:10.879 --> 00:11:15.440 like that that lose you lose credibility with your base, 201 00:11:15.639 --> 00:11:18.519 although that's the best way to move forward. 202 00:11:18.639 --> 00:11:20.639 Yeah. 203 00:11:21.080 --> 00:11:23.519 Gavin Newsom says he did talk to Tom Holman I 204 00:11:23.519 --> 00:11:25.799 think on Friday night is what he said, but he 205 00:11:25.879 --> 00:11:28.519 hasn't spoken to President Well. 206 00:11:28.559 --> 00:11:31.879 I can't wait to hear Tom Holman on John Cobelt's 207 00:11:31.879 --> 00:11:34.879 show this afternoon. It's happening right at one o'clock, right 208 00:11:34.919 --> 00:11:36.799 as we leave you. That's going to be a great 209 00:11:36.799 --> 00:11:41.240 interview because it does bring up I think we've had 210 00:11:41.440 --> 00:11:44.559 we've had protests over immigration in Los Angeles for a 211 00:11:44.639 --> 00:11:49.200 very long time, but we haven't had the legal question 212 00:11:49.600 --> 00:11:55.679 of a president overstepping a governor, or not overstepping, but 213 00:11:56.440 --> 00:12:00.799 bypassing a governor and activating the National Guard, not for 214 00:12:00.840 --> 00:12:03.120 a long time. Brings up a lot oh yeah, in 215 00:12:03.159 --> 00:12:05.240 my memory. So it brings up a lot of questions 216 00:12:05.440 --> 00:12:09.159 there in terms of what jurisdiction does everybody have and 217 00:12:09.240 --> 00:12:12.799 in a city where ice is not recognized, essentially the 218 00:12:12.960 --> 00:12:15.639 lapd Hamstrung can't do anything about ice. 219 00:12:17.320 --> 00:12:18.879 What is everyone's jurisdiction? 220 00:12:19.200 --> 00:12:22.320 Right, So it'll be a fascinating conversation at one o'clock 221 00:12:22.399 --> 00:12:22.799 right here. 222 00:12:22.960 --> 00:12:25.519 We were talking about Elon Musk and his breakup, if 223 00:12:25.519 --> 00:12:27.440 you want to call it that with President Trump. And 224 00:12:27.480 --> 00:12:29.840 one of the things that Elon Musk said on Twitter 225 00:12:29.960 --> 00:12:32.320 during the kind of back and forth late last week 226 00:12:32.519 --> 00:12:39.200 was isn't it about time that Americans or that we 227 00:12:39.240 --> 00:12:42.840 have a third political party that would represent the eighty 228 00:12:42.840 --> 00:12:46.000 percent in the middle. And it was a poll that 229 00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:49.039 Elon Musk put on his Twitter with the millions and 230 00:12:49.080 --> 00:12:52.360 millions of people who follow him, and it was pretty significant. 231 00:12:52.399 --> 00:12:55.879 I think the numbers kind of finally settled in somewhere 232 00:12:55.919 --> 00:13:01.799 around seventy eight percent said yes versus twenty eight to yeah, 233 00:13:01.840 --> 00:13:04.960 sorry math twenty two percent who said no. That got 234 00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:07.960 the attention of Andrew Yang. Remember Andrew Yang. This guy 235 00:13:08.039 --> 00:13:11.039 ran for president in twenty twenty. Didn't make it, obviously, 236 00:13:11.600 --> 00:13:17.360 but he not long after losing in the Democratic primary, 237 00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:23.279 dropped the Democratic Party and wanted to use the notoriety 238 00:13:23.320 --> 00:13:26.960 that he had attained while running for president to push 239 00:13:27.120 --> 00:13:30.919 for an independent party, and he actually named his the 240 00:13:30.960 --> 00:13:31.840 Forward Party. 241 00:13:32.240 --> 00:13:32.440 Well. 242 00:13:32.480 --> 00:13:35.600 Andrew Yang said that as soon as he saw that 243 00:13:35.799 --> 00:13:39.600 poll on Elon Musk's Twitter account, he reached out to 244 00:13:39.639 --> 00:13:42.440 Elon Musk that Elon Musk hasn't called him back yet. 245 00:13:42.480 --> 00:13:44.639 He's a little busy right now, probably. 246 00:13:45.120 --> 00:13:49.000 But Andrew Yang has said that the American public is 247 00:13:49.080 --> 00:13:53.159 ready for a change, particularly if he can get some 248 00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:59.480 of that Elon Musk cabbage in his bank account. Elon 249 00:13:59.559 --> 00:14:02.440 has built This is his comment from Andrew Yank. Elon 250 00:14:02.480 --> 00:14:05.320 has built world class companies from nothing more than an 251 00:14:05.360 --> 00:14:08.480 idea multiple times, and in this instance, you have the 252 00:14:08.559 --> 00:14:11.679 vast majority of Americans who are hungry for a new approach. 253 00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:13.720 He says, I'm happy to spell it out for Elon 254 00:14:13.840 --> 00:14:16.039 or anyone else who wants to head down this road. 255 00:14:16.080 --> 00:14:22.440 A third party can succeed very quickly. It's interesting because 256 00:14:23.240 --> 00:14:26.799 he was asked by Politico, is that the guy you 257 00:14:26.840 --> 00:14:29.879 want to team up with? I mean, Elon Musk brings 258 00:14:29.879 --> 00:14:33.240 with him a certain amount of baggage. Some of it 259 00:14:33.399 --> 00:14:38.919 is pretty negative in social circles, but the upside is 260 00:14:39.240 --> 00:14:42.080 the billions and billions of dollars that he's got at 261 00:14:42.080 --> 00:14:45.320 his disposal. And Andrew Yank's that I want to work 262 00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:48.480 with anyone who recognizes that America's political system has gone 263 00:14:48.480 --> 00:14:51.879 from dysfunctional to polarizing to even worse and At this point, 264 00:14:52.200 --> 00:14:55.840 the fastest growing in political movement in the United States 265 00:14:56.000 --> 00:14:59.360 is independence. They feel like neither party represents them and 266 00:14:59.360 --> 00:15:01.399 that the two party system is not delivering what they 267 00:15:01.440 --> 00:15:03.879 want to say. So if you get him, you get 268 00:15:03.919 --> 00:15:06.320 Andrew Yang, who's a smart thought. 269 00:15:06.320 --> 00:15:10.840 Andrey Yang, Pete boot Edge Edge, who I don't think 270 00:15:10.960 --> 00:15:17.080 is going to be able to it, maybe rise to 271 00:15:17.159 --> 00:15:19.960 the level of the head of the Democratic Party. They've 272 00:15:19.960 --> 00:15:22.320 got to figure out. Everyone's got to figure out who 273 00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:26.480 the young blood is going to be. Yeah, it's and 274 00:15:26.840 --> 00:15:29.200 I don't think that nowhere is shady vance for the 275 00:15:29.240 --> 00:15:32.440 Republicans either. The more that we learn about JD. Vance, 276 00:15:32.480 --> 00:15:35.000 I feel like the dew flies off the lily in 277 00:15:35.080 --> 00:15:40.120 terms of strength, gravitas, knowledge, knowing how to get things 278 00:15:40.159 --> 00:15:41.639 done in Washington, all of that. 279 00:15:42.320 --> 00:15:44.279 I mean, I don't know well. 280 00:15:44.320 --> 00:15:48.360 And remember the old truth that we have now figured 281 00:15:48.360 --> 00:15:51.960 out about politics is the people that we want in power, 282 00:15:52.440 --> 00:15:54.399 they don't want to be in power, right, or the 283 00:15:54.840 --> 00:15:57.120 I should say, the ones that we want in power 284 00:15:57.559 --> 00:15:59.639 they don't want to deal with the politics, right. 285 00:16:00.320 --> 00:16:01.600 Probably better Wait, all. 286 00:16:01.639 --> 00:16:04.639 Right, Gary and Shannon will continue. Don't worry. We still 287 00:16:04.759 --> 00:16:07.519 have ed the Zebra News to get to. I know 288 00:16:07.679 --> 00:16:10.480 everyone was worried about that the Zebra ed the Zebra. 289 00:16:10.559 --> 00:16:12.879 I didn't know we had a name. What I mean, 290 00:16:12.919 --> 00:16:13.759 I've seen the zebra. 291 00:16:13.879 --> 00:16:15.240 What are you talking about? You didn't know we had 292 00:16:15.360 --> 00:16:18.960 He's a famous zebra. I know him as Ed before, 293 00:16:19.000 --> 00:16:20.039 I know him as the Zebra. 294 00:16:20.440 --> 00:16:23.639 Okay, And then when you found out he was a zebra, 295 00:16:23.679 --> 00:16:26.200 it made a lot more sense. I was like, oh, oh, okay, 296 00:16:26.919 --> 00:16:27.919 it's the helicopter. 297 00:16:28.480 --> 00:16:28.840 Got it. 298 00:16:30.559 --> 00:16:34.000 You're listening to Gary and Shannon on demand from KFI 299 00:16:34.240 --> 00:16:35.480 AM six forty. 300 00:16:37.120 --> 00:16:39.720 And that's still happening, right, You guys didn't break up 301 00:16:39.759 --> 00:16:41.320 or anything, right, She didn't leave you over the weekend. 302 00:16:41.759 --> 00:16:45.879 No, not yet. Oh I'm sensing maybe there was an issue. No, no, 303 00:16:45.919 --> 00:16:46.840 it's everything's great. 304 00:16:46.960 --> 00:16:49.000 It was it was the dinner fight, wasn't It was 305 00:16:49.000 --> 00:16:50.200 the dinner fight? It was what do you want to 306 00:16:50.240 --> 00:16:51.360 do for dinner? I don't know what do you want 307 00:16:51.399 --> 00:16:52.440 to do? I don't know what do you want to do? 308 00:16:52.480 --> 00:16:53.799 What do you want to do? It was your first 309 00:16:53.799 --> 00:16:54.120 one of that. 310 00:16:54.399 --> 00:16:55.639 No, No, we haven't had that yet. 311 00:16:55.720 --> 00:16:57.720 Oh I can't wait for that time. That's a fun 312 00:16:57.799 --> 00:17:03.000 chapter going to happen. So on Friday, and Elmer was 313 00:17:03.039 --> 00:17:05.599 saying that they were going to go see the Stephen 314 00:17:05.680 --> 00:17:08.599 King adaptation A Life of Chuck, which Stephen King has 315 00:17:08.640 --> 00:17:11.400 given his blessing. The critics say it's the best Stephen 316 00:17:11.480 --> 00:17:14.720 King movie ever, life affirming this day is It's a 317 00:17:14.720 --> 00:17:17.279 wonderful life. And so I'm all in and I'm in 318 00:17:17.319 --> 00:17:20.359 Orange County and so I look it up on Saturday. 319 00:17:20.359 --> 00:17:21.960 I'm like, I'm totally going to go see this movie. 320 00:17:22.000 --> 00:17:24.960 I'm super excited. And there was no early screening because 321 00:17:24.960 --> 00:17:28.640 it doesn't come out for everywhere until this weekend, this 322 00:17:28.799 --> 00:17:32.039 upcoming weekend, and there was a bunch of screenings in 323 00:17:32.200 --> 00:17:34.039 LA but I was down there and I don't want 324 00:17:34.039 --> 00:17:36.319 to drive up, and I'm like, oh man. And then 325 00:17:36.359 --> 00:17:38.039 I had already had my heart set on going to 326 00:17:38.039 --> 00:17:41.240 see a movie, so I said, well, what else is 327 00:17:41.279 --> 00:17:44.839 showing self? And I look through you know whatever fandango 328 00:17:44.960 --> 00:17:46.759 and I see this movie and I'm like, oh, I 329 00:17:46.759 --> 00:17:48.640 think I remember us talking about that. It's about that 330 00:17:48.759 --> 00:17:51.680 road trip to Sacramento, and oh that sounded like a 331 00:17:51.720 --> 00:17:54.119 fun movie. And I'll get all the inside jokes because 332 00:17:54.119 --> 00:17:57.240 I lived in Sacramento and the whole thing. And about 333 00:17:57.279 --> 00:17:59.799 seven or eight minutes into the movie, I realized it 334 00:17:59.839 --> 00:18:01.599 was a movie we had also talked about. 335 00:18:01.759 --> 00:18:04.359 It was not about the Sacramento road trip. 336 00:18:04.480 --> 00:18:08.400 No, it was the dark comedy with Paul Rudd about 337 00:18:08.559 --> 00:18:14.559 the dude friends that dude, very different experience than I 338 00:18:14.680 --> 00:18:18.319 was looking for. Like I like, my my intention was 339 00:18:18.359 --> 00:18:21.920 to go watch this life affirming movie right with the 340 00:18:21.920 --> 00:18:25.000 Stephen King movie, and then that got sidetracked and I 341 00:18:25.079 --> 00:18:26.839 was like, oh, well, there's this feel good movie I 342 00:18:26.839 --> 00:18:29.920 remember talking about about this road trip with friends to Sacramento. 343 00:18:30.000 --> 00:18:31.559 That sounds like fun. Yeah, I'll watch that. 344 00:18:32.000 --> 00:18:34.519 And I picked the wrong movie, like I did an 345 00:18:34.599 --> 00:18:36.599 old person thing where I went to the. 346 00:18:36.480 --> 00:18:39.559 Wrong movie and it was not life affirming. 347 00:18:39.640 --> 00:18:43.039 It was dark, it was depressing as s and I 348 00:18:43.079 --> 00:18:44.319 was just thankful it was only an. 349 00:18:44.279 --> 00:18:44.920 Hour and a half. 350 00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:48.960 Did you like it? It was different, I'll give it that. 351 00:18:49.759 --> 00:18:50.519 Did you see it? 352 00:18:50.920 --> 00:18:51.200 Yeah? 353 00:18:51.240 --> 00:18:55.000 What'd you think? It's hysterical? It was very darkly funny Elmer, 354 00:18:55.079 --> 00:18:56.599 do you think it was? It would have been different 355 00:18:56.640 --> 00:18:57.400 if she was a dude. 356 00:18:57.799 --> 00:19:01.039 Uh No, it would be different if she were partaking 357 00:19:01.079 --> 00:19:02.400 in cannabis. 358 00:19:02.440 --> 00:19:04.839 I feel I knew it. 359 00:19:05.000 --> 00:19:07.559 I should have taken some weed in the middle of 360 00:19:07.640 --> 00:19:08.200 that day. 361 00:19:08.079 --> 00:19:09.279 I should have taken weed. 362 00:19:09.480 --> 00:19:09.839 I don't know. 363 00:19:10.720 --> 00:19:16.359 Now, listen, jeepers. 364 00:19:16.240 --> 00:19:19.440 You just doubled down on my stupid thing with jeepers 365 00:19:19.599 --> 00:19:20.240 make weed. 366 00:19:20.440 --> 00:19:23.400 I'm curious. How was the audience, uh interraction? 367 00:19:24.240 --> 00:19:28.559 Funny you mentioned that because they're all high. I laughed 368 00:19:28.720 --> 00:19:32.559 periodically at things no one else laughed at because I 369 00:19:32.599 --> 00:19:35.559 have a great sense of humor. There was a woman 370 00:19:35.920 --> 00:19:41.559 who laughed the entire time, like a like at moments 371 00:19:41.559 --> 00:19:44.640 that we're not just like you had to kind of 372 00:19:44.680 --> 00:19:47.359 get that the humor they were going for just I 373 00:19:47.359 --> 00:19:49.599 think she thought she should laugh anyway. It was kind 374 00:19:49.640 --> 00:19:52.119 of distracting. And then there are people that made no 375 00:19:52.119 --> 00:19:54.319 noise the entire time, and I think missed the whole 376 00:19:54.319 --> 00:19:57.440 point of the movie, like miss the whole the whole 377 00:19:57.519 --> 00:20:01.319 lane that it was driving in. But I mean, it 378 00:20:01.400 --> 00:20:04.039 was very different. I've never seen anything like it. 379 00:20:04.039 --> 00:20:07.720 It was. It was a good, like short story movie. 380 00:20:07.799 --> 00:20:08.759 I guess I should say. 381 00:20:09.559 --> 00:20:12.640 Yeah, it kind of follows as humor and basically it's 382 00:20:12.680 --> 00:20:16.079 show on Netflix is a series of those moments happening 383 00:20:16.079 --> 00:20:17.599 with this really awkward kind. 384 00:20:17.440 --> 00:20:17.960 Of take on. 385 00:20:18.279 --> 00:20:21.680 Okay, yeah, then that checks out, Yeah exactly, that's exactly 386 00:20:21.680 --> 00:20:24.119 what it felt like, but it was. I thought the 387 00:20:24.240 --> 00:20:26.599 length was perfect, Like any longer or shorter it would 388 00:20:26.640 --> 00:20:29.960 have been weird. It was. It was very different in 389 00:20:30.000 --> 00:20:32.680 a world where every movie you feel like you've seen 390 00:20:32.759 --> 00:20:34.119 before or they're redoing. 391 00:20:34.279 --> 00:20:35.279 It was something. 392 00:20:35.480 --> 00:20:38.960 Fresh that reminds me of the story that we still 393 00:20:39.000 --> 00:20:41.880 have not figured out about my parents, and now that 394 00:20:41.920 --> 00:20:43.720 they're gone, I'll never be able to Get Hard. 395 00:20:44.480 --> 00:20:45.599 Yeah, this is my face. 396 00:20:45.720 --> 00:20:49.200 I've watched Get Hard so many times because of this story. 397 00:20:49.279 --> 00:20:51.240 I don't know if you've heard this story yet before, Elmer, 398 00:20:51.319 --> 00:20:54.079 but it makes the movie so much better after you 399 00:20:54.079 --> 00:20:54.720 hear the story. 400 00:20:54.799 --> 00:20:58.119 My parents were not huge moviegoers, especially as they got 401 00:20:58.200 --> 00:20:59.759
