Then 22 00:01:24.879 --> 00:01:27.040 they had a lot of speakers, a lot of raw, raw, 23 00:01:27.319 --> 00:01:30.319 a lot of the roll call was fabulous, done down 24 00:01:30.359 --> 00:01:36.439 for what they had a party, honey.

Her speech was just just 27 00:01:49.519 --> 00:01:52.519 on the mark. Uh. And I'd have voted for her 28 00:01:52.519 --> 00:01:55.319 for president right then and there. I'd have been like, oh, okay, 29 00:01:55.359 --> 00:01:58.680 President Michelle Obama, you got it. I mean she could win. 30 00:01:59.239 --> 00:02:03.799 That woman.

I mean, we're not gonna talk 34 00:02:12.439 --> 00:02:14.680 about the fact that America is still kind of racist. 35 00:02:15.360 --> 00:02:19.159 Well she did. Oh and she talked about the lies 36 00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:22.800 they're gonna tell about Kamala and Tim. She said, you 37 00:02:22.840 --> 00:02:25.680 know what, now that they're out there, you know, and 38 00:02:25.680 --> 00:02:28.000 and this is what the other side is gonna do. 39 00:02:28.800 --> 00:02:33.199 They're gonna tell truth speak Charles. They're gonna try to 40 00:02:33.240 --> 00:02:37.520 tell lies. They're gonna not be able to speak their 41 00:02:37.599 --> 00:02:40.520 truth because their truth is going to be all filtered 42 00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:45.520 by the MAGA headphones, and so we got to be sure. 43 00:02:46.439 --> 00:02:50.719 We got to act up. We got to do something. 44 00:02:51.240 --> 00:02:54.719 As she said, when we hear those lies, we can't 45 00:02:54.800 --> 00:02:58.840 let those lies go by because they're gonna lie. She 46 00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:03.120 said it, Michelle said it. They're gonna lie. They're gonna 47 00:03:03.120 --> 00:03:06.560 try to cheat, they're gonna try to steal. She's like, 48 00:03:06.599 --> 00:03:09.479 this ain't no easy fight. Oh y'all be row ron 49 00:03:09.639 --> 00:03:12.199 right now and having a good time, and Kamala's out 50 00:03:12.240 --> 00:03:15.520 having filled stadiums and Tim's out and it's all fabulous. 51 00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:18.479 She said, uh uh no, no, no, She said, this 52 00:03:18.560 --> 00:03:22.039 is gonna be an uphill battle people, and even if 53 00:03:22.039 --> 00:03:26.439 they win, they still gonna try to say that they lost. 54 00:03:26.840 --> 00:03:32.759 Oh honey, Michelle laid it out and laid out everybody 55 00:03:32.759 --> 00:03:37.199 in the room, laid them all out. Michelle was taking names, 56 00:03:37.240 --> 00:03:42.240 had receipts. You couldn't argue with the thing. That woman's it. Now, 57 00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:45.680 some Democrats are pissed off because Michelle did not pay 58 00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:50.960 a huge homage to Joe Biden. Well what if Michelle 59 00:03:51.000 --> 00:03:54.560 doesn't really care for Joe Biden? What if she thinks, 60 00:03:54.840 --> 00:03:58.759 you know, why is it if you're a Democrat and 61 00:03:58.800 --> 00:04:02.000 you're a high ranking Demo crat that you have to 62 00:04:02.039 --> 00:04:05.000 fall over yourself and wet the bed to praise Joe Biden. 63 00:04:05.919 --> 00:04:08.719 I like Joe Biden. He's done a great job as president. 64 00:04:09.120 --> 00:04:11.759 He was great, as he's been a great politician his 65 00:04:11.800 --> 00:04:15.199 whole life. He has. But I never had dinner with him. 66 00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:18.639 I never been behind the scenes with him. Michelle has 67 00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:23.439 you know, do Michelle and Joe get along? I don't know. 68 00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:28.600 But is it her responsibility to praise Joe Biden when 69 00:04:28.639 --> 00:04:32.759 she's there to launch Kamala Harris? Now, you know what 70 00:04:33.160 --> 00:04:35.480 the beauty of our country is you can support whoever 71 00:04:35.519 --> 00:04:37.759 you want to support, and not support who you don't 72 00:04:37.800 --> 00:04:40.600 want to support. And if Michelle Obama didn't feel like 73 00:04:40.639 --> 00:04:43.399 wetting her pants over Joe Biden, which he may have 74 00:04:43.439 --> 00:04:46.120 been doing backstage, then you know what, she don't have 75 00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:50.680 to She don't have to what it was disrespectful. This 76 00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:55.000 was supposed to be his convention. Well it ain't and 77 00:04:55.120 --> 00:04:58.079 it never was supposed to be. When that man came 78 00:04:58.120 --> 00:04:59.680 into office, he said he was going to be a 79 00:04:59.680 --> 00:05:03.120 trend additional president and then would pass the torch. And 80 00:05:03.360 --> 00:05:07.480 suddenly he decides to run for reelection that time, Joe Biden. 81 00:05:08.879 --> 00:05:11.439 And while I am grateful to him for what he's done, 82 00:05:11.519 --> 00:05:14.680 I am thankful to him for what he's done, I 83 00:05:14.680 --> 00:05:17.959 ain't gonna fall over myself to praise him. He did 84 00:05:18.000 --> 00:05:21.439 his job, and he did it well. There's the praise 85 00:05:21.560 --> 00:05:24.600 right there. I just did it. He did his job, 86 00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:27.720 he did it well. I don't have to really say 87 00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:31.199 much more about it. He did his job, he did 88 00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:35.319 it well. What more you want me to say? The 89 00:05:35.399 --> 00:05:38.360 same with Michelle Obama. She ain't got to go out 90 00:05:38.360 --> 00:05:41.600 there and praise every Democrat, you know. She was there 91 00:05:41.600 --> 00:05:44.879 to do a job, and she did it. She fired up, 92 00:05:44.959 --> 00:05:49.399 She got them fired up, fired up, she got them saw, 93 00:05:49.839 --> 00:05:53.160 she got them fired up, and she told them you 94 00:05:53.240 --> 00:05:56.319 got to do something. You got to go make phone calls. 95 00:05:56.319 --> 00:06:00.000 You gotta go canvas. You cannot just sit around and think, oh, 96 00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:05.519 voting is enough. Uh. Even Obama said, don't boo vote, honey. 97 00:06:05.560 --> 00:06:08.279 This is an uphill battle. And Michelle knows it, and 98 00:06:08.439 --> 00:06:14.040 she gave it to us. And then came her husband 99 00:06:15.240 --> 00:06:17.680 and as he said, I'm the only fool they could 100 00:06:17.720 --> 00:06:20.839 get to speak after Michelle Obama because I thought that 101 00:06:21.600 --> 00:06:24.519 I thought I am a brilliant speaker. I would not 102 00:06:24.519 --> 00:06:27.720 want to speak after her. Oh hell no, because she 103 00:06:28.199 --> 00:06:30.160 got him. Honey, she got him, she got me, she 104 00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:35.079 got everybody. But out came Barack, the elder statesman. Who 105 00:06:35.639 --> 00:06:39.079 Barack is young. You know, he was a young president 106 00:06:39.120 --> 00:06:42.360 and now he's being called the elder statesman in a 107 00:06:42.399 --> 00:06:45.360 party that had an eighty one year old nominee. Barack's 108 00:06:45.399 --> 00:06:51.480 the elder statesman. Okay, whatever. So he came out and 109 00:06:51.560 --> 00:06:54.279 gave a long speech like forty five minutes. Loved it, 110 00:06:54.680 --> 00:06:57.199 loved every minute of it. He is one of the 111 00:06:57.199 --> 00:07:01.199 greatest oratorists in smartin Luther King Junior. He is a 112 00:07:01.480 --> 00:07:04.920 brilliant public speaker. He is in gate. Well, that's why 113 00:07:04.920 --> 00:07:07.800 he was president. I mean, he's talking to you. And 114 00:07:07.839 --> 00:07:09.920 one of the things he said that really struck home 115 00:07:09.959 --> 00:07:13.720 for me is from the moment Donald Trump descended his 116 00:07:13.879 --> 00:07:19.120 solid gold staircase. Everything has been about Donald Trump and 117 00:07:19.240 --> 00:07:23.800 his supporters are too weird and too stupid to understand 118 00:07:24.079 --> 00:07:27.720 that that man doesn't care about anybody but himself. Even 119 00:07:27.759 --> 00:07:32.079 in this election, everything's been about him, As Obama says, 120 00:07:32.079 --> 00:07:36.240 his strange obsession with crowd sizes. You know, it's all 121 00:07:36.279 --> 00:07:42.879 about him. Nowhere in Trump's platform are the American people. Nowhere, 122 00:07:43.839 --> 00:07:49.040 It's all about Trump. I lost the election. I was robbed. 123 00:07:49.399 --> 00:07:53.959 I this I that I'm prettier than Kamala Harris. I 124 00:07:54.120 --> 00:07:57.560 get more people at my events. Me me, me, I 125 00:07:57.800 --> 00:08:02.600 was shot. No, he wasn't me, me, me, Not one 126 00:08:02.680 --> 00:08:05.720 thing about you or me, because you don't care. He's 127 00:08:05.759 --> 00:08:11.279 an sociopathic, narcissist, diaper weton idiot, and you don't care 128 00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:15.399 about you. And Obama made that very clear. He's all 129 00:08:15.480 --> 00:08:18.240 this man does not care about you. He cares about himself. 130 00:08:18.639 --> 00:08:22.040 This election is about him, not about you or me. 131 00:08:23.959 --> 00:08:28.800 Donald Trump has made this election about him, him rising 132 00:08:28.839 --> 00:08:33.120 to power, what he wants to do first day for himself, 133 00:08:33.519 --> 00:08:38.559 go after his political enemies, reward his billionaire friends. Nowhere 134 00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:42.759 in his platform. And and oh honey, did you hear 135 00:08:42.799 --> 00:08:46.440 the speaker that used to work for Trump who said 136 00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:52.120 he calls his followers basement dwellers. They are, but who 137 00:08:52.200 --> 00:08:55.399 knew that he saw it that way? He makes fun, 138 00:08:55.759 --> 00:09:00.759 mocks and degrades his own followers because he may be 139 00:09:00.799 --> 00:09:05.039 a narcissistic sociopath, but even he knows that they're freaking weird, 140 00:09:06.600 --> 00:09:12.320 and so he calls them basement dwellers, all kinds of things. Oh, 141 00:09:12.399 --> 00:09:16.600 President Obama, he took me there. He made me miss him, 142 00:09:16.840 --> 00:09:19.480 He made me miss Michelle. He made me miss there 143 00:09:19.559 --> 00:09:25.279 eight years their era. He was powerful, He rallied the crowd. 144 00:09:25.360 --> 00:09:28.480 No one can rally the crowd like President Obama. He 145 00:09:29.200 --> 00:09:34.240 was fabulous. And so many things that he said ring 146 00:09:34.320 --> 00:09:37.399 true about grace. You know, I try. I wanted to 147 00:09:37.440 --> 00:09:40.320 disagree with him. I did. I thought, Ah, this is 148 00:09:40.360 --> 00:09:42.840 the Democrats problem. They tell us we gotta like the 149 00:09:42.919 --> 00:09:45.519 other side. They tell us that we have to extend 150 00:09:45.519 --> 00:09:49.399 these people courtesies that you know, they haven't caught up yet, 151 00:09:49.759 --> 00:09:53.879 that they what He's still in his brain, he still 152 00:09:53.879 --> 00:09:56.840 doesn't understand. They don't want to catch up. They don't 153 00:09:56.879 --> 00:09:59.159 want grace, they don't want to be treated well. They're 154 00:09:59.200 --> 00:10:03.200 at war and to them, we're the enemy, and they 155 00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:05.000 don't want to get along, and they don't want to 156 00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:07.480 live next to us. Obama talked about the fact that 157 00:10:07.519 --> 00:10:11.480 in America, you can agree disagree politically, but you can 158 00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:13.720 still understand that we all got to live here together, 159 00:10:14.679 --> 00:10:17.080 and that what's good for your neighbor is good for you. 160 00:10:17.200 --> 00:10:20.360 If your neighbors kids have health care, that's good for 161 00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:22.960 you because if they get sick, you're not going to 162 00:10:23.039 --> 00:10:27.840 get sick. If your neighbor is flourishing financially, that's good 163 00:10:27.919 --> 00:10:31.840 for you because the neighborhood, you know, stays nice and 164 00:10:31.879 --> 00:10:34.879 because they're able to maintain their house. And you know, 165 00:10:34.960 --> 00:10:41.399 so someone else doing well is actually good for you. Well, yeah, 166 00:10:41.519 --> 00:10:44.320 it's okay for Democrats to think that, but the GOP don't. 167 00:10:46.159 --> 00:10:49.399 You know, the GOP doesn't care if their neighbors are 168 00:10:49.440 --> 00:10:54.120 doing well. They want to live somewhere with no neighbors. Okay, 169 00:10:54.879 --> 00:10:58.600 Elon Musk doesn't want neighbors, you know, George Soros, all 170 00:10:58.639 --> 00:11:01.879 of them. None of the billionaires, the thousand plus billionaires 171 00:11:01.919 --> 00:11:05.799 in the United States, which Obama talked about the wealthy 172 00:11:06.240 --> 00:11:09.399 was odd because he is wealthy. But they tell you know, 173 00:11:09.440 --> 00:11:12.600 he talked about the wealthy and how they're not your friend. 174 00:11:13.519 --> 00:11:17.039 They don't want democracy, they want autocracy. They want someone 175 00:11:17.120 --> 00:11:20.120 to give them what they want, and that's Donald Trump. 176 00:11:21.440 --> 00:11:23.919 And what Obama pointed out is when Donald Trump speaks, 177 00:11:23.960 --> 00:11:27.960 he speaks to a group of a thousand people, the billionaires. 178 00:11:28.759 --> 00:11:32.679 That's who his constituents are. That's who he cares about. 179 00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:38.080 That's the rules that he's gonna make. Oh lord, was 180 00:11:38.159 --> 00:11:41.360 it a one to two punch, honey, and knocked us 181 00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:44.200 all out? Knocked us all out. It's a shame. Kamala 182 00:11:44.279 --> 00:11:46.919 wasn't there to hear it. She was off in Wisconsin 183 00:11:47.000 --> 00:11:48.799 doing a rally at the same place Trump got his 184 00:11:48.879 --> 00:11:53.639 nomination and she filled the place. But they both said 185 00:11:53.679 --> 00:11:56.919 the same thing. We gotta vote, we gotta fight, we 186 00:11:56.960 --> 00:11:59.399 gotta keep this energy going for seventy seven days, and 187 00:11:59.480 --> 00:12:01.320 we'll try to get the song out for you Monday 188 00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:04.639 or Tuesday. If THEA records at Thursday, let's hope. I've 189 00:12:04.679 --> 00:12:06.919 heard the tracks now. The tracks are great. Just waiting 190 00:12:06.919 --> 00:12:09.840 for THEA to record. We're not going back. I'm gonna 191 00:12:09.840 --> 00:12:11.799 get that out. That's gonna be my part to help 192 00:12:11.879 --> 00:12:14.799 keep up the momentum. A great song written by me, 193 00:12:15.039 --> 00:12:18.080 sung by a million selling artist, THEA Austin. You know 194 00:12:18.159 --> 00:12:20.559 that that is gonna be one of the ways that 195 00:12:20.639 --> 00:12:24.840 I contribute. How are you gonna contribute? What are you 196 00:12:25.519 --> 00:12:28.799 gonna do to make sure Kamala wins. Yes, you're gonna vote, 197 00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:31.080 But what else you're gonna do? You're gonna go down 198 00:12:31.120 --> 00:12:33.000 and volunteer and get on the phone. You're gonna write 199 00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:35.919 some postcards, You're gonna go knock on doors. Well, no, 200 00:12:36.639 --> 00:12:38.759 you're gonna have a million reasons down below in the 201 00:12:38.759 --> 00:12:41.919 comments why you can't do any of that. You will, 202 00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:43.720 You'll have a million reasons down there of why you 203 00:12:43.720 --> 00:12:46.559 can't do any of that. But guess what we all 204 00:12:46.600 --> 00:12:50.840 have to I am I've already contacted my place here 205 00:12:50.840 --> 00:12:54.720 in Nevada, the Democratic National Committee here in Nevada. I'm 206 00:12:54.759 --> 00:12:57.639 gonna be writing postcards and I'm gonna go watch the 207 00:12:57.720 --> 00:13:00.879 Kamalist speech tomorrow night at their office is and the 208 00:13:00.960 --> 00:13:03.000 hour before that we watch it. They said, bring a 209 00:13:03.080 --> 00:13:06.360 laptop because they want you to do some work. Okay, 210 00:13:06.840 --> 00:13:10.440 I'm gonna pitch in. I'm gonna try to do more 211 00:13:10.480 --> 00:13:13.200 than just talk about it. I'm gonna do what Michelle 212 00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:17.039 Obama said, I'm gonna do something. What are you gonna do? 213 00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:20.320 Michelle said, you got to do something other than vote. 214 00:13:21.200 --> 00:13:23.519 Have you talked to all your family members and friends 215 00:13:23.519 --> 00:13:25.919 and make sure they have a voting plan, make sure 216 00:13:25.919 --> 00:13:28.200 they're registered to vote, make sure they can get to 217 00:13:28.240 --> 00:13:30.679 the polls or their requested a mail in ballot, Do 218 00:13:30.840 --> 00:13:33.080 you know, have you talked to all your friends about 219 00:13:33.080 --> 00:13:40.000 their voting plans? Have you? You got to We can't 220 00:13:40.039 --> 00:13:44.960 take it for granted because she has to win. Every 221 00:13:45.080 --> 00:13:48.000 day more horror comes out about what they will do 222 00:13:48.360 --> 00:13:53.720 if they win. She has to win. And that's what 223 00:13:53.720 --> 00:13:56.679 Michelle said. Look, Tim and Kamala are human. They gonna 224 00:13:56.679 --> 00:14:01.000 make mistakes. But don't start wringing your hand and saying, oh, 225 00:14:01.039 --> 00:14:03.720 did we make the wrong choice? Oh are they gonna wear? 226 00:14:03.799 --> 00:14:08.360 Uh uh? Because no matter what, no matter what mistakes 227 00:14:08.399 --> 00:14:11.639 they make or have made, they are the only choice 228 00:14:11.759 --> 00:14:15.879 at this point to put in the White House. So 229 00:14:16.039 --> 00:14:20.720 don't be hand ranging. Instead of handwranging, do something. And 230 00:14:20.799 --> 00:14:25.759 I'm gonna repeat what she said, Do something, all right? 231 00:14:26.440 --> 00:14:30.519 President Obama made a statement last night that was so 232 00:14:30.799 --> 00:14:34.519 profound to me. I wrote it down and it has 233 00:14:34.639 --> 00:14:39.960 changed my entire outlook on something. I'm going to share 234 00:14:39.960 --> 00:14:43.360 with you what that is when we come back. Also, 235 00:14:44.000 --> 00:14:46.279 if you die and you have a dog and you 236 00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:49.960 want it buried with me, should the family respect that wish? 237 00:14:50.159 --> 00:14:52.240 We aren to talk about that as it in the 238 00:14:52.279 --> 00:14:55.360 news today about the French star who died and wants 239 00:14:55.360 --> 00:14:59.000 his dog buried with it.

And let's keep the party going as 258 00:15:55.120 --> 00:16:12.679 long as we can. Sometimes you hear something so profound 259 00:16:13.360 --> 00:16:17.440 and it just resonates with you so much that you 260 00:16:17.519 --> 00:16:19.600 have to write it down. And I did that last night. 261 00:16:19.679 --> 00:16:24.320 When President Obama said a very poignant line. It was 262 00:16:24.360 --> 00:16:27.080 just part of a larger sentence. It wasn't like, you 263 00:16:27.120 --> 00:16:30.519 know something, he drove home again and again. But boy, 264 00:16:30.840 --> 00:16:34.039 oh my god, did it stick with me and it 265 00:16:34.080 --> 00:16:36.440 fits right into my life right now because okay, so 266 00:16:36.919 --> 00:16:40.200 let's be real. Yesterday afternoon I had a major depression. 267 00:16:40.480 --> 00:16:43.200 I mean to where I thought, you know what, maybe 268 00:16:43.240 --> 00:16:45.879 your life is just over. Yeah. Yeah, oh, I had 269 00:16:45.919 --> 00:16:49.759 a major depression. Yesterday afternoon. I tried to call some 270 00:16:49.840 --> 00:16:52.440 venues in San Jose to see if I could, you know, 271 00:16:52.879 --> 00:16:55.679 get booked there or rent them out so I could 272 00:16:55.720 --> 00:16:57.360 do a show in San Jose. And the ones I 273 00:16:57.399 --> 00:17:02.720 called were either gone because of COVID or just weren't interested. 274 00:17:03.000 --> 00:17:05.400 Just now, we're you know, we're fine. We get our 275 00:17:05.440 --> 00:17:08.160 comics through this or we don't rent it out or whatever. 276 00:17:09.400 --> 00:17:12.240 And how many social yesterday I heard how many social 277 00:17:12.279 --> 00:17:14.519 media followers do you have? And you know all this 278 00:17:14.559 --> 00:17:17.640 other stuff. So if you live in San Jose and 279 00:17:17.720 --> 00:17:19.880 you know of a comedy club or a little theater, 280 00:17:20.359 --> 00:17:23.640 I prefer a little theater that would hold one hundred 281 00:17:23.839 --> 00:17:26.799 you know, one hundred and fifty people, please put it 282 00:17:26.839 --> 00:17:29.599 in the comments below because the ones I'm calling they're like, 283 00:17:29.880 --> 00:17:32.119 oh no, we hold five hundred people and we would 284 00:17:32.200 --> 00:17:35.119 never do a show that small because I said, well, 285 00:17:35.200 --> 00:17:37.480 under you know, one hundred and fifty people, and they're like, 286 00:17:37.519 --> 00:17:40.880 oh no, we would. So if you know of a 287 00:17:40.920 --> 00:17:46.240 place that hopefully serves cocktails and has a stage and 288 00:17:46.279 --> 00:17:49.000 can accommodate a hundred people or so, and it's in 289 00:17:49.079 --> 00:17:53.319 the Bay area, the razroom is gone, you know, and 290 00:17:53.599 --> 00:17:56.400 a Planet Gemini in Monterey is not in the Bay Area, 291 00:17:57.119 --> 00:17:59.839 and so I need a place like in San Jose. 292 00:18:01.359 --> 00:18:03.119 So if you know of a place, please let me know. 293 00:18:03.200 --> 00:18:06.680 So that was frustrating thea not getting to the song yet. 294 00:18:06.799 --> 00:18:09.799 It's frustrating. I understand her reasons for not being able 295 00:18:09.839 --> 00:18:12.000 to record it this week when I needed it recorded, 296 00:18:12.039 --> 00:18:14.720 but you know, and she's doing it free, so I can't, 297 00:18:14.920 --> 00:18:18.480 you know, But that's frustrating. The lump that I'm supposed 298 00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:22.000 to have ultrasound. Now my insurance says, oh, the general 299 00:18:22.000 --> 00:18:25.519 surgeon can't order that ultrasound because it's in your chest. 300 00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:29.119 You have to go through our breast care group and 301 00:18:29.160 --> 00:18:31.839 that referral's been put in. I have a PPO, but 302 00:18:31.920 --> 00:18:34.319 they're like, that referral has been put in. They'll contact 303 00:18:34.359 --> 00:18:35.799 you in three to five days and then you can 304 00:18:35.799 --> 00:18:38.000 set an appointment with them. I'm like, I don't need 305 00:18:38.039 --> 00:18:41.880 to see another doctor. Two doctors have now seen me, dermatologists, 306 00:18:41.880 --> 00:18:45.240 general surgeon. They both want an ultrasound of it. Why 307 00:18:45.279 --> 00:18:46.880 do I need to? But you know what, that was 308 00:18:46.920 --> 00:18:52.319 an hour of my life yesterday. So that's frustrating. Money 309 00:18:52.519 --> 00:18:56.799 is frustrating, you know, yesterday afternoon, do your career. I 310 00:18:56.880 --> 00:19:00.440 love my podcast, but I need one hundred times. I 311 00:19:00.480 --> 00:19:03.599 need more than four hundred views of my videos. I 312 00:19:03.640 --> 00:19:07.240 need like four thousand, forty forty thousand, and I think 313 00:19:07.279 --> 00:19:10.319 I'm good enough to get that. So why why isn't 314 00:19:10.319 --> 00:19:15.599 it happening? So I was depressed yesterday and then I 315 00:19:15.680 --> 00:19:19.119 posted on social media on threads at really corell just 316 00:19:19.160 --> 00:19:21.039 a picture of my kitchen, which most of you have 317 00:19:21.119 --> 00:19:24.480 seen with the open shelves, and I very flippantly said, God, 318 00:19:24.519 --> 00:19:26.240 I love open shelves. You know, the kitchen is a 319 00:19:26.240 --> 00:19:28.240 work zone. Why would you put cabinets in the way 320 00:19:28.279 --> 00:19:31.440 of what you need to reach? That's all the post says, 321 00:19:31.920 --> 00:19:34.240 whyever would you have cabinets when you have to reach, 322 00:19:34.319 --> 00:19:37.039 you know, up and back so much. It is the 323 00:19:37.079 --> 00:19:41.960 most commented on post I have ever posted, over one 324 00:19:42.000 --> 00:19:48.400 thousand vitriolic, mean, horrible answers. It looks like crap, your 325 00:19:48.519 --> 00:19:51.759 kitchen sucks, it's too cluttered, blah blah blah, on and 326 00:19:51.799 --> 00:19:59.880 on and on, horrible, mean, mean, derogatory cursing. And that's 327 00:20:00.119 --> 00:20:03.839 all that social media is nowadays. It is not healthy. 328 00:20:04.319 --> 00:20:08.160 We should not be on social media for anything but 329 00:20:08.319 --> 00:20:11.400 promotion of your brand, or you should use it as 330 00:20:11.440 --> 00:20:15.359 a tool as a marketing tool. That's all it should be. 331 00:20:15.839 --> 00:20:19.720 And I'm lonely, and it's very lonely here in the summer, 332 00:20:19.759 --> 00:20:21.119 as you know, because we've got to stay in the 333 00:20:21.160 --> 00:20:24.240 house and such. But I'm using social media as a 334 00:20:24.279 --> 00:20:27.559 way to connect and I don't know these people I'm 335 00:20:27.559 --> 00:20:29.880 connecting with, and I haven't met anybody that I'm going 336 00:20:29.960 --> 00:20:32.240 to go out with or anything. It just makes you 337 00:20:32.319 --> 00:20:35.400 feel less lonely. If you see what people are saying 338 00:20:35.400 --> 00:20:38.319 about a topic and then you chime in, you feel 339 00:20:38.400 --> 00:20:42.440 less lonely, but you're not making a connection. Well. President 340 00:20:42.519 --> 00:20:47.279 Obama said, we have become a nation that idolizes all 341 00:20:47.359 --> 00:20:53.759 the wrong things. We idolize fame, we idolize money. He's 342 00:20:53.759 --> 00:20:57.279 talking about influencers, by the way, and his next line, 343 00:20:58.640 --> 00:21:02.640 we constantly try or wait, I don't want to get 344 00:21:02.640 --> 00:21:07.640 it wrong. We constantly seek the approval of strangers on 345 00:21:07.720 --> 00:21:12.400 our phones. When he said that that was it, I 346 00:21:12.440 --> 00:21:16.559 lost it. I lost it. We constantly seek the approval 347 00:21:17.319 --> 00:21:23.880 of strangers on our phones. I thought that should be 348 00:21:24.000 --> 00:21:28.240 the death of social media right there, that sentence from 349 00:21:28.279 --> 00:21:33.640 that learned individual should be the death of social media. 350 00:21:33.799 --> 00:21:39.480 Obama doesn't post anything except to promote the Obama brand, 351 00:21:39.839 --> 00:21:42.920 to get a message out about what they're doing, to 352 00:21:43.000 --> 00:21:46.599 show photos about what they're doing, to promote their TV 353 00:21:46.680 --> 00:21:50.599 shows or their other endeavors. But he doesn't comment on 354 00:21:50.839 --> 00:21:54.920 other people's posts. He doesn't get into any kind of 355 00:21:55.079 --> 00:22:00.799 arguments online with people. He doesn't seek. He doesn't go 356 00:22:00.920 --> 00:22:07.119 out and seek the approval of strangers on his phone. 357 00:22:07.160 --> 00:22:14.400 He doesn't and most celebrities most many do, but most 358 00:22:14.559 --> 00:22:18.240 do not. They only use social media to promote their brand, 359 00:22:18.519 --> 00:22:21.400 and if they give you a peek behind their life, 360 00:22:21.960 --> 00:22:25.400 it's really for their fans. When Barbarus Dreissen shows a 361 00:22:25.440 --> 00:22:28.319 picture of her dogs. She's not putting that out there 362 00:22:28.440 --> 00:22:30.559 for the entire world. She's putting it out there for 363 00:22:30.720 --> 00:22:38.000 her followers, for her fans, And so that comment we 364 00:22:38.079 --> 00:22:43.720 are constantly seeking the approval of strangers on our phones, 365 00:22:44.880 --> 00:22:50.640 has suddenly changed my entire relationship with social media. In 366 00:22:50.720 --> 00:22:54.759 one fell swoop and all the vitriolic comments that I'm 367 00:22:54.799 --> 00:22:57.759 getting over just a picture of my kitchen my first 368 00:22:57.759 --> 00:23:00.880 thing to go viral. It has been viewed over five 369 00:23:01.319 --> 00:23:06.160 hundred thousand times. Half a million people have seen my kitchen. 370 00:23:07.440 --> 00:23:11.039 I post online comments from the show. I post minute 371 00:23:11.039 --> 00:23:14.160 snippets of the show. I post articles that I've written 372 00:23:14.200 --> 00:23:18.200 about important things in the world. I have posted all 373 00:23:18.279 --> 00:23:23.279 kinds of socially relevant content. Gets hardly any views. I 374 00:23:23.400 --> 00:23:26.440 post a picture of my kitchen and simply say that 375 00:23:26.519 --> 00:23:28.759 I don't like cabinets and that you you know, because 376 00:23:28.759 --> 00:23:32.119 you got to reach and work. And it gets five 377 00:23:32.599 --> 00:23:37.039 hundred thousand views and over a thousand comments. Now it 378 00:23:37.079 --> 00:23:39.680 has gotten six hundred likes as well. So six hundred 379 00:23:39.680 --> 00:23:43.599 people thought, yeah, I like that, but a thousand people 380 00:23:43.720 --> 00:23:48.839 have chosen to say derogatory negative and their pigs they 381 00:23:48.880 --> 00:23:51.079 all say the same thing, Well, why it would all 382 00:23:51.079 --> 00:23:55.000 get covered with grease. I'm like, no, I don't use 383 00:23:55.039 --> 00:23:57.880 that much grease, and I have venting. None of my 384 00:23:57.960 --> 00:24:00.359 stuff in my kitchen gets covered with grease, And yes, 385 00:24:00.400 --> 00:24:03.799 I clean it every week. All the dishes are washed 386 00:24:03.839 --> 00:24:06.039 almost every week whenever I do a load of dishes. 387 00:24:06.519 --> 00:24:08.880 What happens is the top shelf fills up from my 388 00:24:08.960 --> 00:24:11.599 daily use and then the bottom shelf. I put in 389 00:24:11.640 --> 00:24:14.359 the dishes from the shelf, not all at once, like 390 00:24:14.400 --> 00:24:16.440 one day it'll be one set, the next daybe the other. 391 00:24:16.759 --> 00:24:19.440 But they get washed pretty much on a weekly basis. 392 00:24:20.119 --> 00:24:22.359 And are they covered with grease and dust? No? I 393 00:24:22.359 --> 00:24:24.680 don't know what kind of pigs these people are because 394 00:24:24.680 --> 00:24:27.759 they're frying animal products. Someone said my bacon grease would 395 00:24:27.759 --> 00:24:30.519 get I said, well, then give up bacon. You know, 396 00:24:30.680 --> 00:24:33.519 I don't. I don't fry things. I do not deep 397 00:24:33.599 --> 00:24:35.759 fry anything. I use the air fryer or the Brava. 398 00:24:36.079 --> 00:24:39.240 The Brava I do not, you know, like get this 399 00:24:39.440 --> 00:24:42.279 much grease going, And no, that's just not good for you. 400 00:24:42.359 --> 00:24:44.880 I don't do it. I might eat stuff like that 401 00:24:44.920 --> 00:24:47.480
