Speaker 1: Let me finish. This is the first time I committed
Speaker 1: a hate crime.
Speaker 2: Maybe they'll jerk my dick off for it, you know,
Speaker 2: like something like that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, probably we've disgusted. I'm associopath. You are thras died
Speaker 1: my shit order any trash shit. You're a worst friend.
Speaker 2: Do want to know why you're all fucked up?
Speaker 1: Just look at the fucking problems you hang around with.
Speaker 1: You're listening to your worst friend, Shane Mett. I'm met
Speaker 1: and I'm joined today by my friend and co host
Speaker 1: Shane Hi. I'm gladim here the monkey. This is episode
Speaker 1: two forty nine, the penult, which is a word I
Speaker 1: just learned about fifteen years ago episode of Your Worst Print.
Speaker 1: That's a good word. It's a fun word. Is there
Speaker 1: a third from last? Fucking the pen weakest? So in
Speaker 1: horn ridging? First places, win, second place is dose place? Okay,
Speaker 1: third places? Birdie show pretty close. I mean it was
Speaker 1: a sport. Yeah, it is a game. I spent a
Speaker 1: lot of off as a game. Oh yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: what am I going to disagree with you? I'm not
Speaker 1: a big golf guy. Oh no, hey, fuck you, you
Speaker 1: don't understand the d Okay, all right?
Speaker 2: Jack Nicholas was the best athlete to ever grace the Green.
Speaker 1: You know what is interesting though, you said you started
Speaker 1: watching some football watch some like a behind the scenes
Speaker 1: thing when they're going over like plays and stuff and
Speaker 1: what it takes to call a play and how that's
Speaker 1: signaling each different person on the field to do a
Speaker 1: different thing, or each different set of people to do something.
Speaker 1: And then in the moment they get up to the
Speaker 1: line and they're like, oh, our play is not designed
Speaker 1: for this defense whatsoever, So then you have to change
Speaker 1: it and adjust it, and it's it's I'm not saying
Speaker 1: these guys are rocket scientists obviously, but it is a
Speaker 1: different kind of intelligence. That's why there's so many like
Speaker 1: athletic quarterbacks that just don't have the processing ability to
Speaker 1: like play a sport like football like that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like like one of those John Conway Game
Speaker 2: of Life things where it's like you you have like
Speaker 2: a set of initial conditions and then based on how
Speaker 2: the pieces are arranged, you'll have a different outcome. It's
Speaker 2: a little different with the Conway machines because they're like
Speaker 2: they are mathematical devices, but the idea I think is
Speaker 2: the same. It's like your your you're looking at pieces
Speaker 2: on the field. It's as similar to chess, but like
Speaker 2: the fact that it's like a kinetic thing, right, like
Speaker 2: the both sides are moving at the same time. That's
Speaker 2: that's where I see the the comparison there. But yeah,
Speaker 2: I completely agree with you, Like, that's what that fascinates
Speaker 2: me most about sports is the strategizing. That's why I'm
Speaker 2: really interested in chess. I suck at playing it, but
Speaker 2: I'm really interested in how these guys like can look
Speaker 2: at the board and see like ten moves ahead.
Speaker 1: You know already. It's so funny you bring up chess
Speaker 1: because as I had the football on in the background
Speaker 1: yesterday while I was I was editing, but I look
Speaker 1: over and there was a camera angle that makes me go, oh,
Speaker 1: this is harder than chess. Just it's weird. That popped up.
Speaker 1: And my thought was, there's eleven guys on each side,
Speaker 1: blah blah. But imagine if you were trying to play
Speaker 1: chess like directly in line with all of the pieces,
Speaker 1: like I understand the top test players.
Speaker 2: And you were moving them all at the same time.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, I don't even mean like that.
Speaker 1: I mean just strategizing in the way you said being like,
Speaker 1: imagine if all the chess pieces were seven or eight
Speaker 1: feet tall, right. I just think being able to see
Speaker 1: from an overhead perspective gives you gives me at least
Speaker 1: the ability to see multiple moves ahead. And oh sure, yeah, absolutely, yeah.
Speaker 1: And when you're on a football field, think about it.
Speaker 1: You have three hundred pound guys who run forty yards
Speaker 1: in four point four seconds coming at you, full speed,
Speaker 1: full strength, and here's what you have to do. Play
Speaker 1: chess at eye level crazyat it's pretty it's like what's
Speaker 1: it called today? I was driving home.
Speaker 2: And I, yeah, I think I'm a pretty observant driver,
Speaker 2: like vigilant. And I saw a shadow cast on the
Speaker 2: road in front of me from a car going the
Speaker 2: opposite way on the other side of the highway. And
Speaker 2: my immediate reaction was like, foot off the gas, get
Speaker 2: it over the break. It was just like instant, but
Speaker 2: it was a shadow, you know, it was just like
Speaker 2: this instant, like muscle memory type, like, oh, be prepared.
Speaker 1: Something's coming at me on the road.
Speaker 2: I think that probably the amount of times they rehearse
Speaker 2: the plays, the amount of like mental fortitude that the
Speaker 2: player has how much they actually study the plays as
Speaker 2: opposed to just like running them on the field, like
Speaker 2: taking it home and memorizing things.
Speaker 1: That's got to play a big part in it too.
Speaker 2: I can't imagine like that these guys only train their
Speaker 2: bodies and don't try to train their minds a little bit.
Speaker 1: Well, you know, it's funny this year, specifically, in the
Speaker 1: last few years, people have been pointing out, like, oh,
Speaker 1: football's getting kind of like shittier, Like guys aren't playing
Speaker 1: as well, quarterbacks aren't playing as well, it's not as
Speaker 1: smooth of an operation. And ironically, in the last few years,
Speaker 1: they've significantly reduced practice time ah players because players don't
Speaker 1: want that wear and tear on their bodies, like they
Speaker 1: play a physical sport as is. If you get a
Speaker 1: concussion during practice, it's like, well, fuck, like that sucks.
Speaker 1: That's like a waste of a concussion.
Speaker 2: Why don't they just practice with like nurse balls.
Speaker 1: Oh, holograms, that's good. I was gonna go for something
Speaker 1: childish and immature. You just went with something that doesn't exist.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Oh dude, they got a tupacn movie.
Speaker 1: Just give them footballs instead.
Speaker 2: Yeah, just have all the players tackling Tupac Holograms.
Speaker 1: There was one day that I was editing this episode,
Speaker 1: one of the episodes, not in this episode. That'd be
Speaker 1: weird if I had the foresight to know I was
Speaker 1: going to fuck up like this on this one. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so you edited a new episode in advance, I will
Speaker 1: fuck up the same way. But I was doing a
Speaker 1: I was just dragging my feet on cutting it because
Speaker 1: there's one of those ones where I had to cut
Speaker 1: Peace by piece by piece because something got fucked up.
Speaker 1: And on my third monitor over here, I was just like, man,
Speaker 1: I should just put on Tron Legacy right now. You
Speaker 1: ever seen it? It was three point thirty four in
Speaker 1: the morning. I had work at nine, had to drive
Speaker 1: gend to work at eight, and I was just like,
Speaker 1: let's watch Tron Legacy. And I did and it wasn't bad.
Speaker 1: It was not bad.
Speaker 2: The last time I did that, like stayed up late
Speaker 2: and watched a movie while everyone else is asleep, was
Speaker 2: Fuck Prisoners with Jake Joeen Hall, that torture movie.
Speaker 1: I want to watch it so bad, and I've seen
Speaker 1: scenes of it. I just feel like it's gonna and
Speaker 1: I know the ending. I just feel like it's really
Speaker 1: gonna bum me out the whole Yeah, the reality of it.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, you'll love it.
Speaker 1: It's great. I I yeah, I can't do that. I
Speaker 1: don't know. I can't do it, and I can't do
Speaker 1: it anymore. Oh really. I tried to watch Terrifier three
Speaker 1: the other day. I wasn't disgusted by. I fell asleep.
Speaker 1: I fell sleep through the entire thing. She gets to
Speaker 1: It shows her with her new like adoptive family whatever,
Speaker 1: it's her cousin or Anne or or something. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And I woke up to directed By at the end
Speaker 1: and I was like, wow, fuck, Okay, missed the entire thing.
Speaker 1: Jen didn't like it as much as Too. Yeah. Too
Speaker 1: is the best one. Really, Okay, I think so interesting? Good?
Speaker 1: Good enough? All right? Did you put together the list
Speaker 1: I told you to put together? No? What was the list?
Speaker 1: Top three CEOs you think deserved to be shot in
Speaker 1: the back? Oh? Yeah I did. Actually it was it
Speaker 1: was the company I worked for, the company you work for,
Speaker 1: and Apple Podcasts.
Speaker 2: It was a Chevron. No, I'm not Chevron. What's the
Speaker 2: what's the little quickie mark attached to Chevron? I don't
Speaker 2: have a problem with the oil industry. I just got
Speaker 2: a problem with the the fucking sandwich shops that they're
Speaker 2: hosting at their gas stations.
Speaker 1: They really got a franchise better. Why what's wrong with them?
Speaker 1: None of them are good, if we're being honest. No
Speaker 1: gas station one is seven eleven's are good. Wah wahs
Speaker 1: are good. But those I'm counting those as like stores,
Speaker 1: you know, like you're not to see a fucking who
Speaker 1: did you just say? Not Conico Phillips, who'd you just SAYMPM? Chevron,
Speaker 1: you didn't say a MPM? Do you know your own
Speaker 1: words either? Or is it just me?
Speaker 2: I don't know the difference between the gas guys and
Speaker 2: the guys who fucking ripped me off for breakfast burritos.
Speaker 2: But they're they're one and the same. But you know,
Speaker 2: I just don't want to get any you know, honest
Speaker 2: oil mogals shot down.
Speaker 1: I understand they're just doing the lord's work. There was
Speaker 1: some clip going around on social media Billy Bob Thornton
Speaker 1: from some New show landman or something. He's an oil
Speaker 1: rig guy. It looks it looks or not rigged. No
Speaker 1: oil Derek oil Barren Tycoon. Well now he just works
Speaker 1: in an oil field. But a rig, A rig feels
Speaker 1: like water, isn't it.
Speaker 2: So he's just like a southern dirt bag. He's just
Speaker 2: a piece of well paid piece of shit. Yeah it
Speaker 2: looks good though. It looks like a good show. I
Speaker 2: like Billy Bob Thornton.
Speaker 1: But he explained, he goes into this whole explanation about
Speaker 1: how getting oil out of everything that it's tied to
Speaker 1: in society, from plastics and medicines and this and that.
Speaker 1: He said that's gonna take two hundred years if we
Speaker 1: ever get there. I'm sure. Yeah, yeah, So I'm pointing
Speaker 1: it out. It's just you said oil, and I thought
Speaker 1: of man, maybe we should kill that guy. And then
Speaker 1: I was like, oh wait, I remember that clip. They
Speaker 1: said the word oil in that clip. I better bring
Speaker 1: it up loudly.
Speaker 2: I saw some woman being interviewed the other day. I
Speaker 2: forget what her name was, but she has like a
Speaker 2: she has a podcast series where she has people come
Speaker 2: on and talk about things that they changed their mind about,
Speaker 2: like big things, like big big.
Speaker 1: Issues change my mind on abortion change, right, like big
Speaker 1: huge topics.
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, so one of them was like a senator
Speaker 2: who changed his mind on climate change. Went from a
Speaker 2: skeptic like or not not escape us, like a believer
Speaker 2: in the science, to being a skeptic. So I haven't
Speaker 2: watched it yet. I heard her talk about it, but
Speaker 2: she was talking about how one of the big things
Speaker 2: like that, I say, and it applies a lot to
Speaker 2: climate change, abortion, those hot button issues. It's just like
Speaker 2: how people dichotomize an issue in their head instantly, like
Speaker 2: they make it like about it has to be stop
Speaker 2: now or never and that, and that's the only way
Speaker 2: they can see it's black or white. When Billy Bob
Speaker 2: Thornton says like it's going to take two hundred years
Speaker 2: to goe all that stuff out, maybe it'll take infinity years,
Speaker 2: you know. Maybe what what what the question is is
Speaker 2: not like when will we no longer have fossil fuels,
Speaker 2: Maybe it will be or maybe it should be how
Speaker 2: much is too much? And when can we use these
Speaker 2: these things? Like I can imagine crises in the future,
Speaker 2: right like a nuclear meltdown or just some sort of
Speaker 2: electric catastrophe, some sort of a blackout with solar arrays
Speaker 2: where it would totally make sense to have to just
Speaker 2: start using fossil fuels again, and that would be the
Speaker 2: best alternative. And so it's the idea that like, we
Speaker 2: have to get rid of all fossil fuels and we
Speaker 2: have to do it now.
Speaker 1: That's like a red herring.
Speaker 2: That's it's just like not even a real argument, you know,
Speaker 2: it really has to has to be realistic. We have
Speaker 2: to just talk about, hey, how long can we keep
Speaker 2: on doing this before we really fuck the planet up?
Speaker 2: And then I think people already doing this. What are
Speaker 2: the plastic safe alternative or the non plastic safe alternatives?
Speaker 2: When can we get them up and running? What are
Speaker 2: the cost what are the ecological costs? Like all these
Speaker 2: questions could have answers, you know, it's just that we're
Speaker 2: stuck on like.
Speaker 1: Oh, they want us to get rid of fossil fuels now, yeah,
Speaker 1: but what do we do to the CEO if they
Speaker 1: don't get rid of fossil fuels? Now?
Speaker 2: We just call a little Italian plumbers brother, have him
Speaker 2: hunt hunt the CEO through Manhattan for three weeks and
Speaker 2: then see see what he can do.
Speaker 1: I For people who have not heard the they keep
Speaker 1: calling him the CEO of United Healthcare, He's like a
Speaker 1: vice president CEO.
Speaker 2: It's like of a division, you know, He's like the
Speaker 2: CEO of ripping off like you know, forty five to
Speaker 2: sixty eight year olds.
Speaker 1: You have the CEO of the guy who creepily sells
Speaker 1: you the porn at the front of the store and
Speaker 1: gives you singles. You have the CEO of the guy
Speaker 1: who works the mops in the back. Like there's different.
Speaker 2: This is the CEO for the bucket boy.
Speaker 1: I got it. Yeah, bucket boy does not know anything
Speaker 1: about change counter at the front. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's all compartmentalized so that way the big wakes
Speaker 2: up at the top of the porn pile. They can
Speaker 2: fucking keep all the dough for themselves.
Speaker 1: Right. I got a question. You're in a porn shop.
Speaker 1: You touch something gross up at the front of the counter,
Speaker 1: so I breathe, so I've taken my hands out of
Speaker 1: my pockets. You touch something gross at the front of
Speaker 1: the store. Is a antiseptic pump. But it looks like
Speaker 1: it's been through the first nineteen covids, all of them,
Speaker 1: and has continued on into the future. I mean, it
Speaker 1: is filthy looking, but the fluid inside is clear because
Speaker 1: it's like the cheap shitty hand sanitizing.
Speaker 2: And I'm assuming this is a hand pump. It's not
Speaker 2: an automatic.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, it's sitting on the counter. It's
Speaker 1: one of those looks like one of those cheap jugs
Speaker 1: of water from whatever crystal springs or whatever it is.
Speaker 1: And it's sitting on the counter. I'm picturing the porn
Speaker 1: shop local to me, and behind the counter is a
Speaker 1: gentleman that's either severely overweight or so thin from being
Speaker 1: tweaked out. But no one ever has energy in the store.
Speaker 1: It's always very mute. It like, I get it, you're
Speaker 1: not trying to upsell, but at the same time, and
Speaker 1: there's this container up there of just the I mean,
Speaker 1: it's clean on the inside, but it looks like it
Speaker 1: was on a construction site earlier. Do you go home
Speaker 1: with the gunk on your hand or do you take
Speaker 1: a pump?
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I have hand sanitizer in my car,
Speaker 2: but I'm assuming I say, that's yeah, that's not allowed.
Speaker 1: Just yeah, I guess.
Speaker 2: I guess on this particular day, I decided to be
Speaker 2: a disgusting, fucking sex pervert and you know, expose myself
Speaker 2: to airborne cum particles without bringing my hand sanitizer. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I probably wouldn't touch that gross thing. I'd probably just
Speaker 2: go home all nasty.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you just kind of try and not touch
Speaker 1: the steering wheel as much to drive with my fucking
Speaker 1: my knee, my panted knee. Yeah yeah, yeah, okay, yeah same.
Speaker 1: I never do it. I always have my hand sanitizer.
Speaker 1: I'm just I like to plan for hypotheticals, obviously.
Speaker 2: You know, I really hate just walking into any public
Speaker 2: restroom ever. Like there's some that are so nice and
Speaker 2: clean that it's like, oh, okay, I could, I could
Speaker 2: sleep here. But anytime I walk into a public restroom,
Speaker 2: I'm holding my breath as long as I can, and
Speaker 2: I usually can't last the whole time, so then I
Speaker 2: have to take like a deep breath and it's all
Speaker 2: just like shit and pissed particles all floating in the air.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 2: It's the fucking worst.
Speaker 1: Why is it that when something stinks so bad like shit,
Speaker 1: my first reaction is to close my mouth and breathe
Speaker 1: in through my nose because you.
Speaker 2: Don't want to bar right taste it.
Speaker 1: But it's oh okay, see, but that's the thing. I've
Speaker 1: never really tasted shit before, so I don't know. It
Speaker 1: could be delicious. It could, yes, you have. But at
Speaker 1: the same time, the worst thing you can do with shit,
Speaker 1: I feel like, besides free use it and eat it
Speaker 1: like a popsicle, is smelling it. Okay, well, sure you
Speaker 1: can mold it into a shit fletched light? Is that
Speaker 1: a category?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 1: Is this shit dildo? You're gonna stick it in yourself?
Speaker 1: You gotta freeze it, right? Yeah? Yeah, it's a you know,
Speaker 1: like a popsicle. Butt fuck. Isn't there some fucking urban
Speaker 1: myth about someone shitting in a condom and freezing it
Speaker 1: and then a girl fucking herself with it.
Speaker 2: That's pretty cool. I don't I never heard that, but
Speaker 2: I do think it deserves a name, an.
Speaker 1: Urban myth or one of those like, oh, it's either
Speaker 1: an urban myth or a saw trap. Yeah, so what'd
Speaker 1: you think of that story? In case people haven't heard,
Speaker 1: the CEO of the whatever company United Healthcare, the subdivision
Speaker 1: he just got like shot in the back by a
Speaker 1: guy guy walked up to him. At first, it looked
Speaker 1: the first analysis I read of it, it looked so smooth,
Speaker 1: And then people were like, oh, it wasn't at all
Speaker 1: very smooth.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll tell you, I uh, I mean, very little
Speaker 2: has come in about the shooter. But I called it
Speaker 2: in like in the moment, I was like, this is
Speaker 2: not a hit man. This is nobody smart, this is
Speaker 2: nobody special. This is a crazy person. And I bet
Speaker 2: you he fucked up a lot. And then you look
Speaker 2: at you know, leaving Prince, leaving DNA, getting his face photographed,
Speaker 2: writing on the shell case things. It's like just stupid, stupid,
Speaker 2: stupid amateur moves that no real you know, master assassin
Speaker 2: would have ever done ever. But the brazen just murder
Speaker 2: in the middle of the street and then getting away
Speaker 2: from authorities, that that was pretty cunning, I will say,
Speaker 2: like it like just how he how quickly he was
Speaker 2: able to get away from the scene and get out
Speaker 2: of the state and everything.
Speaker 1: So I was texting Blander about it, and I am
Speaker 1: so I'm weirdly torn on this one, in the way
Speaker 1: I'm weirdly torn about hard drugs. I believe what I
Speaker 1: believe about people's bodies and control over them and this
Speaker 1: and that. So by those metrics, you would think, oh, well,
Speaker 1: he's for legalizing drugs. And then I have that personal
Speaker 1: issue with my brother and it weighs on my principle,
Speaker 1: Like if I had to decide. If I had to vote,
Speaker 1: I would go with my principle. But when your morals
Speaker 1: really like bleed in there, sometimes it's hard for me
Speaker 1: to kind of come to a definitive feeling on something.
Speaker 1: And maybe you don't necessarily have to have a definitive
Speaker 1: feeling on something, especially if you're not deciding something like
Speaker 1: if you're a surer, yes you should have a definitive feeling.
Speaker 1: But me, I'm just some fucking guy. So what Yeah
Speaker 1: you are, But so what do you mean? Though?
Speaker 2: That it weighed on what what were you contending with?
Speaker 1: It's almost like, now, see, I don't want to go
Speaker 1: hyperbolic like people do online. That's obnoxious. I would say, Uh,
Speaker 1: Chris rock O J. Simpson, what is they like? Oh,
Speaker 1: they're black. They're both black guys.
Speaker 2: Blame a black guy.
Speaker 1: Okay, I love black people, but I hate never mind
Speaker 1: a different one. No, Chris rock O J. Simpson, We've
Speaker 1: talked about it in the past. Uh, he shouldn't have
Speaker 1: done that, but I understand. You know, my first thought
Speaker 1: is I gotta know more about the guy if he's
Speaker 1: like just some activist, which I thought when you were
Speaker 1: gonna when you were talking about oil and it's like
Speaker 1: it doesn't have to be. Now. I was thinking of
Speaker 1: what is that British activist group and it's just stop oil.
Speaker 1: I thought it was stop oil now, and I was
Speaker 1: gonna be like, well, some people disagree with you, but
Speaker 1: that's I was just kidding. I was kidding they can
Speaker 1: I agree though they can't.
Speaker 2: I think just stopping oil is not a solution, right,
Speaker 2: It's like it's a slogan. The real thing is to
Speaker 2: figure out, like, hey, when is the best time if
Speaker 2: ever to use these things? Because it makes sense, right,
Speaker 2: like combustion engines are great for a lot of things.
Speaker 2: It's just that we don't want to fuck the world up, right,
Speaker 2: so how do we manage it?
Speaker 1: But yeah, I think.
Speaker 2: That just stop oil they like they're extreme, you know,
Speaker 2: like they their actual stated goals are not in line
Speaker 2: with reality.
Speaker 1: Yeah, sure, okay, all right, I just was the name reference.
Speaker 1: Now I forget what I was talking about.
Speaker 2: Oh, but it's another It's like, but I think that's
Speaker 2: why I hate those names though, like defund the police,
Speaker 2: Like I hate that. I had to unpack that when
Speaker 2: it was a thing like a slogan where I had
Speaker 2: to be like, well, I think what people mean is
Speaker 2: that they really want to reform the police, but defund
Speaker 2: the police. It's like nobody with a brain wanted to
Speaker 2: defund the police. You know, that just doesn't make any sense.
Speaker 2: But everybody who gave a shit when they had that argument,
Speaker 2: when they actually dug into it, was all about like, oh,
Speaker 2: well we need to have social workers go out on
Speaker 2: calls with police, or we need to have better training,
Speaker 2: and it's like, okay, well that all costs more. That
Speaker 2: all costs more money. You know, how do you defund
Speaker 2: them and get any of that?
Speaker 1: The one to be fair. AOC specifically pointed down that
Speaker 1: people should not mansplain what she meant and said, I
Speaker 1: do mean taking money away from the police that I want.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, Well, like I said, nobody with a brain.
Speaker 2: She just got that body fair enough. Damn that's an
Speaker 2: oh man, I got to send you. Someone threw a
Speaker 2: solid ai up of AOC and Laren Bobert, not topless bikinis,
Speaker 2: but it was still really really solid. You see knuckles,
Speaker 2: you see the moose knuckles.
Speaker 1: You might see moose knuckles. I'm not sure that might
Speaker 1: be worth it? Yeah, might it might be? Well, I
Speaker 1: might look at it. I haven't decided yet. So the
Speaker 1: guy's name is what they so they finally found him today,
Speaker 1: Luigi Manicotti, Man, oh what is it? MANGIONI right, something
Speaker 1: like that. Yeah, I only know that because of Chuck
Speaker 1: Mangioni from south Park. King of the Hill. I don't
Speaker 1: know that guy from south Park, Chuck Mangie. Well he
Speaker 1: was a singer, he was a musician. Oh yeah, he
Speaker 1: was the guy that would wear the stupid hat. Well
Speaker 1: there's real people that I only know from south Park,
Speaker 1: like Brian Boitano. Yep, that's what I was kind of
Speaker 1: mixing him up with. You're gonna know him if you
Speaker 1: say it. Hold on, look is Chuck Mani. You're gonna
Speaker 1: remember his character. Okay, you gotta share your screen waiting.
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, yeah, that is Captene Hunger for us. No
Speaker 2: King of the Hill, Okay, King of the Hill. I
Speaker 2: never really watched that. It wasn't much of him. No, yeah,
Speaker 2: I always thought it was for fucking you know, like
Speaker 2: po dunk trash, fucking farm people. But that and I've
Speaker 2: seen a couple episodes and I was like, oh no, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: this is on some like Native American shit too.
Speaker 1: Yeah, sure, I think Blandrew hates Futurama really, but he
Speaker 1: likes the Simpsons. Yes, yeah, two different things. Well, I
Speaker 1: want to disagree. But then I tried to watch that
Speaker 1: disenchantment or something on Netflix. I don't know what that is. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1: It was like Matt Groening and all those other fucking
Speaker 1: Simpsons people were like, we could do this again, and
Speaker 1: they were like standing in a field holding a rod
Speaker 1: looking for lightning. Oh that's a shame. Yeah, anyway, fucking
Speaker 1: this guy that killed this guy. So anyway more it's
Speaker 1: it's I have a right, yeah, yeah, because what's going on.
Speaker 1: I don't understand. I don't think this guy should have
Speaker 1: been shot and murdered. I think we should arrest this guy.
Speaker 1: And that's not how the rule of law goes. But
Speaker 1: when you push people far enough, if this guy isn't
Speaker 1: some like, if he's like some activist, I'll go, all right,
Speaker 1: he's crazy. Anyone who's gonna go murder someone over a
Speaker 1: point blah blah blah to me, you're out there, you're crazy,
Speaker 1: little bit. I'll give you that one. Like crazy guy.
Speaker 1: If he's a guy who had an injury, his mother,
Speaker 1: you know, was in the hospital and they denied coverage
Speaker 1: and blah blah blah blah blah ah that it's not
Speaker 1: good that people break, but people break, you know, so
Speaker 1: I need to know, like where this guy. I don't
Speaker 1: even need to know where this guy was. I get
Speaker 1: he saw this person as a target. I'm not justifying
Speaker 1: this in any way whatsoever other than to say, you know,
Speaker 1: it's the holidays.
Speaker 2: So so I think what and I yeah, let me
Speaker 2: know if I'm mischaracterizing this year statement at all.
Speaker 1: So even though murder is wrong, this murder.
Speaker 2: Is kind of like, well, it's kind of like a
Speaker 2: you get what you ask for type of thing, Like
Speaker 2: you had to have known you were fucking people over.
Speaker 2: It's only a matter of time before somebody snaps, right,
Speaker 2: like before somebody like your company has serviced maybe one
Speaker 2: hundred million people or fifteen million people. I think is
Speaker 2: it's just an insane amount of people, and you're known
Speaker 2: for being super shady fucking people over what is the
Speaker 2: word delaying so that people have to pay out a
Speaker 2: pocket for urgent hair and stuff like that. It's like
Speaker 2: there's all these things where it's like, well you kind
Speaker 2: of not you kind of had it coming, but what
Speaker 2: did you expect is that kind of like pha?
Speaker 1: Is that a fair h It's it again? I understand,
Speaker 1: by the way, And I started this off in my
Speaker 1: text to blame for about it, because that's why I
Speaker 1: really like voice. I was like, I need to know
Speaker 1: where I stand this because I'll tell you what I
Speaker 1: don't like. I don't like like that Taylor Lorenz lady
Speaker 1: tweeting out the pictures of the other CEO your professional
Speaker 1: writer she writes for, like some professional either magazine or
Speaker 1: newspaper or something like that. That's that's encouraging it. It's
Speaker 1: almost like, remember, I think I references maybe even a
Speaker 1: couple of weeks ago, Remember when Augustus Gluke gets sucked
Speaker 1: into the thing and they're like, oh my god, you
Speaker 1: gotta help him, you gotta help a Gene Wilder goes
Speaker 1: help murder, please save him. It's almost like it's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: it sucks this guy's family had to die. It sucks
Speaker 1: he had to have to die to die. It sucks
Speaker 1: that this happened in this way, and that kid is
Speaker 1: wrong and should be prosecuted and everything like that. But
Speaker 1: it's the same logic I use when a girl hangs
Speaker 1: out at her frat house, four nights in a row,
Speaker 1: fucking pussy hanging out and she's getting trashed and taking
Speaker 1: molly all night and then she get rapes. I sit
Speaker 1: there and I go, this is not right. But all
Speaker 1: of us saw it coming, you know. And maybe, but
Speaker 1: here's the thing. I'm sure someone warned her at some point, Hey,
Speaker 1: you can't be a softy pig or someone's gonna drop
Speaker 1: a seed in you that you never saw coming. Problem.
Speaker 1: But I'm sure this guy's seen plenty of protests about
Speaker 1: you know, people in wheelchairs, or how about when you know,
Speaker 1: I know this is a government thing. This is entirely different,
Speaker 1: but I think it's the most disgusting thing I've ever
Speaker 1: seen in terms of that is what John Stewart fights
Speaker 1: for the nine to eleven. Yeah, for the ground zero workers,
Speaker 1: Like find it, Okay, find it. I'm sure a billion
Speaker 1: dollars would cover it. And we sent how many billion
Speaker 1: to Israel and how many billion to hear and how
Speaker 1: many billion to hear? One billion dollars you take care
Speaker 1: of all the healthcare of all those people from nine
Speaker 1: to eleven? Find it? Yeah, So so go ahead, Yeah,
Speaker 1: with all that, I know I'm wrong. I just don't don't.
Speaker 1: I don't know that you're wrong. I think that I
Speaker 1: think that.
Speaker 2: I don't think there is a right or wrong. I
Speaker 2: think you're just talking about your feelings and stuff. But
Speaker 2: I will say I'm noticing. Okay, So I'm going to
Speaker 2: make two separate points. One was Taylor Lorenz. I don't
Speaker 2: know who that is.
Speaker 1: She's the one that docs the libs of TikTok girl.
Speaker 1: She's a lefty, yes, and she's very like she still
Speaker 1: wears masks out and stuff like that, and she's she's
Speaker 1: more less about the message, I think, and more about
Speaker 1: the image, I guess. Okay, so.
Speaker 2: I don't know any of the details, but you said
Speaker 2: she posted a picture of another CEO and what did
Speaker 2: she say?
Speaker 1: Words with it? Or let's see then more?
Speaker 2: Go ahead, keep go ahead, good, bring it up first.
Speaker 1: I want to see okay, hell rend oh, okay, Well,
Speaker 1: Vox is firing her. It seems like twenty three hours
Speaker 1: ago they are not renewing deal. Okay, So well, I
Speaker 1: still don't even want her to get fired. Truthfully, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna pull it up. Okay, go ahead.
Speaker 2: The the thing I think you said was she was
Speaker 2: encouraging what copycats?
Speaker 1: No just it just felt I guess callous coming from
Speaker 1: someone in the news that is, in a roundabout way
Speaker 1: doing that. Again, if someone did go out and kill
Speaker 1: the CEO of Blue Cross Blue Shield, I'm not going
Speaker 1: that's Tilla Lorenz's fault. But I think you can look
Speaker 1: at it and be like, you should have a higher
Speaker 1: responsibility than that. I still don't put the blame on you,
Speaker 1: but yeah, you should still have a higher responsibility than that. Sure,
Speaker 1: I don't know three hundred and twenty nine thousand followers. Uh,
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm gonna find it. She might
Speaker 1: have pulled it. Go ahead, sorry, So just.
Speaker 2: And again like you're just voicing your feelings. This isn't
Speaker 2: about right or wrong. This is just something for.
Speaker 1: You to chew on.
Speaker 2: If you think that is encouraging, I implore you to
Speaker 2: look at the January sixth stuff again and think about
Speaker 2: if you think that is encouraging. But the second point
Speaker 2: about the CEO, and well, now we're okay, So I
Speaker 2: think what the silver lining I think you're kind of
Speaker 2: alluding to is like, look, this is bad, murder's bad,
Speaker 2: but what did you expect to happen? And now, because
Speaker 2: this happened, maybe maybe maybe CEOs will do something, or
Speaker 2: there will be a legitimate discussion with politicians and CEOs
Speaker 2: and stuff, and there will be like real change in
Speaker 2: the healthcare industry. I think a lot of people are
Speaker 2: kind of afraid to just like say, like, oh, that's
Speaker 2: that's the good part of this, because I don't think
Speaker 2: that's actually even gonna happen, right. I think they'll probably
Speaker 2: just have a guy replace the dead dude and it'll
Speaker 2: be business as usual. I think they'll they'll just move on, because,
Speaker 2: like you think the one murder is going to stop
Speaker 2: a trillion dollar a year industry, Like.
Speaker 1: Come on, not the industry, but uh, I think they
Speaker 1: just got probably fifteen hundred x vets hired or vets
Speaker 1: not x vets, vets hired as private security. Like, I mean,
Speaker 1: did you see all the CEOs started scrubbing their about
Speaker 1: pages on on their own websites, you know, the normal Yeah,
Speaker 1: you normally have like the C suite you put who
Speaker 1: the executive is and blah blah blah blah blah blah,
Speaker 1: and they all started clearing them off.
Speaker 2: That's uh so, so they're just going to keep their
Speaker 2: identities hidden?
Speaker 1: Well, no, you'll have you can still dig into reports
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. But I mean that's a that's
Speaker 1: a reactionary thing. That is a pretty quick like uh sure,
Speaker 1: But I mean that does that say?
Speaker 2: Does that tell you anything significant is going to happen
Speaker 2: with our healthcare?
Speaker 1: Again, it really depends on how far that fear goes.
Speaker 1: You're right, that was one guy and they're gonna all
Speaker 1: beef up security, and if there's another one that somehow
Speaker 1: gets through security, then it becomes a trend. And a
Speaker 1: trend is what these people base their business on as
Speaker 1: far as insurance and this and that. You don't know,
Speaker 1: You never know. I mean, maybe no one wants the job.
Speaker 1: Then people step down from the job quicker, and maybe
Speaker 1: you have people who are less, maybe you get a
Speaker 1: good person in there. I don't know.
Speaker 2: You know, I saw that the dead guy had a
Speaker 2: private security detail with him in Manhattan.
Speaker 1: Where were they when this dude got gunned down? I
Speaker 1: didn't see that, I believe you. I didn't. I didn't
Speaker 1: see that anywhere. I didn't yet. He had been.
Speaker 2: Under threat I think from other people before and his
Speaker 2: his trip. I think he had had two armed security
Speaker 2: guards with him, and they just weren't with him. When
Speaker 2: he got shot.
Speaker 1: There was a there was fun little conspiracy. Early on,
Speaker 1: it seemed fun because he was set to testify about something,
Speaker 1: some insider trading thing. And then you have a guy who,
Speaker 1: again at first glance, comes up with a silencer on
Speaker 1: his gun. The first report I read was it it
Speaker 1: looked like it jammed, and he cleared the jam, it
Speaker 1: looked like it misfired. Yeah, as of now I'm reading
Speaker 1: it's like a vet gun. I don't know what did it. No,
Speaker 1: it wasn't.
Speaker 2: No, And there's a there's this rumor that it's this uh,
Speaker 2: this single bolt action silenced nine millimeter pistol. I don't
Speaker 2: remember who makes it, but it's like a super rare gun,
Speaker 2: and it's got a bolt cycling action, which is just
Speaker 2: unheard of for a pistol. So it's like you can
Speaker 2: tell from the video the way he clears his jam,
Speaker 2: he's pulling a slide back. And the way that you
Speaker 2: would cycle this gun is you would you would fire around,
Speaker 2: you would pull the bolt up and over, pull it
Speaker 2: back to eject the round. You would have to crank
Speaker 2: it to be the next round into the barrel, push
Speaker 2: it forward to you know, load it into the barrel,
Speaker 2: lock the bolt in place, and then fire. And he
Speaker 2: got those rounds off so fast. He clearly like he
Speaker 2: couldn't have cycled it that fast. You can tell from
Speaker 2: the way he clears the action he's just pulling a slide.
Speaker 2: I do think it's crazy that he had a silenced
Speaker 2: pistol right there in the street, Like it's wild that
Speaker 2: silencers are legal, right, don't you think that's a little
Speaker 2: fucking crazy.
Speaker 1: Nothing about it was legal. New York's got some of
Speaker 1: the toughest gun law rights.
Speaker 2: But I mean, how hard is it to just come
Speaker 2: to New York with your your legal weapon from somewhere else.
Speaker 1: But then it's not legal? I agree with you. Oh no,
Speaker 1: I I I'm saying, just.
Speaker 2: If abortion is legal in a different state because your
Speaker 2: state doesn't offer it and you can go there and
Speaker 2: get it, you can easily do that with guns, you
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. It's like the the idea that
Speaker 2: this is a gun this is a pro gun argument, right,
Speaker 2: The idea of a state passing a lall that says
Speaker 2: no guns is not going to stop people from bringing
Speaker 2: guns and killing people, right, Like, that's that's stupid.
Speaker 1: So it's it's it's just.
Speaker 2: That the fact that this person had access to a silencer.
Speaker 2: I think, like, I can't think of a single fucking
Speaker 2: use for a silencer for any American. Yeah, they're cool.
Speaker 2: I'd love to go to a shooting range and play
Speaker 2: with one, But why why do we need those?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Still to me, let me ask why does it
Speaker 1: make it worse? I don't even want to fight on
Speaker 1: that one because I don't even know that. I'm not
Speaker 1: I'm just.
Speaker 2: Asking in in this case, it doesn't make the crime worse?
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, no, why does the Why does the
Speaker 1: silencer make the gun? I can understand, Okay, okay, I
Speaker 1: can understand, like like, hey, we want to get rid
Speaker 1: of fifty round you know, mags and fucking automatic I go, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: because you could just mow people down with that. But
Speaker 1: is there is there a yeah? Well, I mean behind
Speaker 1: a silencer.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean like, there's no logic that I can
Speaker 2: think of to have one. But I mean the reason
Speaker 2: that you would say, okay, this is this is too
Speaker 2: much is because you could silence weapons still make noise, right,
Speaker 2: but they slow down the bullet a lot. So you
Speaker 2: could do something like put a silencer on a weapon.
Speaker 2: Put a pillow over someone's head and fire a point blank,
Speaker 2: point blank range, and you would muffle nearly all the sound.
Speaker 2: It would probably sound like someone just slamming a door
Speaker 2: if you were in an apartment building. That seems like
Speaker 2: a thing we probably shouldn't just let people have easily.
Speaker 2: There's no reason you need it for home defense. There's
Speaker 2: there's even in a in a wartime scenario. There's no
Speaker 2: reason to have a silencer. It is literally like a stealth,
Speaker 2: sneak exterminate type thing. There's no other reason for it.
Speaker 1: Could you make an argument for something like hunting duck
Speaker 1: or some shit like that if you were hunting with a.
Speaker 2: Because of course you shoot, you shoot duck with and
Speaker 2: you're supposed to be shooting. You're not supposed to hunt
Speaker 2: with silencers specifically because of other hunters. You're supposed to
Speaker 2: let your shots ring out to let other people know
Speaker 2: that you're there.
Speaker 1: Sure, okay, okay, yeah that makes sense. Yeah, I'm just
Speaker 1: I'm trying to find some reason for it, because yeah,
Speaker 1: it's literally like it keeps quiet. Yeah.
Speaker 2: No, there's no reason a normal person could ever need that.
Speaker 2: If you're a spy or something, and maybe you can
Speaker 2: get a permit tone a silencer, but we don't. You
Speaker 2: and me don't need them. And I'm not saying that
Speaker 2: the silencer aided in the commission of this crime. It
Speaker 2: probably helped a little, well.
Speaker 1: This one specifically, even Yeah, I mean it took a
Speaker 1: pretention off them for sure. Well, but I don't know
Speaker 1: about like other like just if some guy wants to
Speaker 1: live out, you know, wherever in the country and he's
Speaker 1: got a handgun or whatever, he is a silencer. I'm
Speaker 1: just wondering, does it is there is.
Speaker 2: There that the silencer probably didn't help all that much, honestly, Yeah,
Speaker 2: because the whole point of it is to slow down
Speaker 2: the bullet enough that it still breaks the skin and bone,
Speaker 2: but doesn't break the sound barrier. So you can't muffle
Speaker 2: the crack of the gunpowder. That's impossible because that gas
Speaker 2: escapes from the slide.
Speaker 1: And that has not I saw I was reading someone
Speaker 1: said they used subsonic AMMO potentially.
Speaker 2: That's yeah, So the silencer would just slow it down
Speaker 2: even more. But it's impossible to silence the gunpowder. It's
Speaker 2: literally impossible. So even if the it doesn't break the
Speaker 2: sound barrier, someone's still gonna be like, what is that?
Speaker 1: Firecrackers? You know what is that?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it probably helped a little. I'm not saying
Speaker 2: it was completely useless, but people heard it. Let's see,
Speaker 2: and there's a guy right there watching it.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think he was a security guard. But look,
Speaker 1: but you know what, uh huh first shot there he
Speaker 1: but look he kind of noticed, but it wasn't like
Speaker 1: it wasn't like a an M eight went off next soon,
Speaker 1: you know. Yeah, and then even the second one, he's like, oh.
Speaker 2: Sure, shit, this gues go to a fucking James Bond gun.
Speaker 1: And then calmly walks away. It annoys me. I was
Speaker 1: hoping he'd be more of a starter and less of
Speaker 1: an activist.
Speaker 2: But just set himself on fire right there in the streets.
Speaker 1: Three Palastine. I was hoping he was a guy who
Speaker 1: just had a medical thing that he got turned down on.
Speaker 1: Good looking dude too. I hope they put him on
Speaker 1: the cover of Rolling Stone too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, dude, I hope they sent him to Ukraine to
Speaker 2: fight the.
Speaker 1: That should be what happens.
Speaker 2: Yeah, why don't we send our prisoners to fight the
Speaker 2: war in Ukraine?
Speaker 1: Oh? Man? I like this quote by Tim Dillon. The
Speaker 1: fact that you're going to shoot a CEO in the
Speaker 1: head and you can't do it before you get your
Speaker 1: Starbucks is brilliant advertising for Starbucks. Nobody goes to Dunkin
Speaker 1: Donuts before they kill anyone. Dunkin Donuts is where you
Speaker 1: go after you've killed someone. That's true. Yeah, that's cute.
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, it's weird, all right. So how do you feel,
Speaker 1: like I said, principle feal wise, how do you feel
Speaker 1: about it?
Speaker 2: I feel somewhat. I feel mostly apathetic, but I feel also.
Speaker 1: Slight.
Speaker 2: What is the word vicarious vindication? I like, I just
Speaker 2: I'm noticing a lot of just like because I care
Speaker 2: about like your thought process, right, I care about people's
Speaker 2: the way they get to their conclusions, because your conclusions,
Speaker 2: like they can change all the time. Right, But it's like,
Speaker 2: what are you thinking about? And I feel like I
Speaker 2: remember with the Trump assassination, when fucking Destiny was like
Speaker 2: a martyr for saying what.
Speaker 1: Did he say?
Speaker 2: He said, what do you expect when you go to
Speaker 2: a fucking gun nut rally or something you know, expect
Speaker 2: to get shot? It was something along those lines, but
Speaker 2: it was it was couched in, like, hey, I don't
Speaker 2: want anyone to die or whatever, and it was like
Speaker 2: a crucifixion, you know. And then I see like the
Speaker 2: same thing here where it's like, oh, we have a
Speaker 2: guy who probably didn't deserve to get shot killed any
Speaker 2: of that, you know, and probably the reason it happened.
Speaker 2: Like I'm willing to bet that this guy is not
Speaker 2: a martyr. He's not somebody who had a loved one
Speaker 2: or a.
Speaker 1: Either that was denied coverage or a daughter. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Sorry, My bet is that he is somebody who wanted
Speaker 2: to kill, like who's like had it in their head
Speaker 2: like a school shooter wanted like I've been wanting to
Speaker 2: do it, you know, I just like I wanted to
Speaker 2: know what it feels felt, would feel like Field, Like, yeah,
Speaker 2: would it Field like? Because he is a school shooter
Speaker 2: and he's not smart, but so he he probably also
Speaker 2: had something like an Elliott Roger like a hero complex.
Speaker 2: Doesn't have to be an in cell, but where it's
Speaker 2: like I'm I'm gonna do this for a nobler cause
Speaker 2: and you will remember me for what I've done and
Speaker 2: I will be you know, like a pariah, you know,
Speaker 2: like a I'm gonna kill baby Hitler.
Speaker 1: I'll be a guy that killed a baby, but you
Speaker 1: don't know. I just serk you so much, exactly. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So it's like I feel like it was somebody wanting
Speaker 2: to do a bad thing and searching for a justification
Speaker 2: or a reason and they found it, you know, and
Speaker 2: and the internet's reaction how people. And I'm not saying
Speaker 2: it's bad that we're having a discussion about the healthcare industry,
Speaker 2: not at all. I'm just saying it's weird that in
Speaker 2: this case we have like open celebration from a lot
Speaker 2: of people on both sides of the spectrum, and we
Speaker 2: have like a an honest segment of the population who's like, well,
Speaker 2: maybe this will maybe this will actually do some good.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's there's there's a silver lining in this awful act,
Speaker 2: and it's that things will change again.
Speaker 1: I don't think that's going to happen.
Speaker 2: But it's just like I don't think that we should
Speaker 2: have seen a silver lining in Trump getting shot either.
Speaker 2: I'm just saying it's weird that that wasn't a gun
Speaker 2: controlled discussion, that was not a that that that was
Speaker 2: like it was just a fiasco, and then like you
Speaker 2: kind of brought up I I feel like it was
Speaker 2: in the news long enough, but you said they kind
Speaker 2: of dropped it.
Speaker 1: But I've heard other people echo that sentiment.
Speaker 2: It was like it was in the news for a
Speaker 2: couple of days and then it was gone and nobody
Speaker 2: fucking cared which one the Trump, the Trump, the Trump assassination. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it was and I felt like they talked about it enough.
Speaker 2: But I've heard you say and other people say, hey,
Speaker 2: nobody gave a shit about it after two days, you know,
Speaker 2: I did. I was really interested in that little tour.
Speaker 1: It was. It was more it was more not that
Speaker 1: people weren't interested. Coverage maybe lessened more than it what
Speaker 1: it was. It was a big event. I mean, it
Speaker 1: was the first time a guy was shot since what
Speaker 1: Reagan and yeah, and in the head, and then what
Speaker 1: before that Kennedy was a Kennedy Well I guess, yeah,
Speaker 1: he gobby, but he wasn't president. But that was big too. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. I mean, you know, in the middle
Speaker 1: of an election cycle, whatever, it doesn't it's.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just it's just weird that again, I'm not
Speaker 2: speaking I'm just speaking to our society and the way
Speaker 2: that they get to their conclusions, and it's just troubling
Speaker 2: because it doesn't speak to like a balanced weighing of facts,
Speaker 2: you know, it doesn't speak to logical analysis.
Speaker 1: It seems like a lot of emotional shit, which I get.
Speaker 2: You know, shit shit seems bad sometimes, and well you
Speaker 2: get emotional.
Speaker 1: The same, you know exactly. I'm not saying you are
Speaker 1: this person, but people who might say, like, oh, don't
Speaker 1: be emotional about it. You can't be emotional. You have
Speaker 1: to understand this guy went to go he killed all
Speaker 1: these people by denying him coverage, and this is just
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah blah. I mean, it's I totally
Speaker 1: lost my point. It was something about how it's it's
Speaker 1: pretty much the same, however you justify it.
Speaker 2: There's no justification for murder, you know. That's that's why,
Speaker 2: and that's why I'm kind of I'm staunchly sticking by
Speaker 2: my prediction here that nothing changes. The industry might get
Speaker 2: some extra security, they might take their names down, but
Speaker 2: they don't give a fuck. You think they're going to
Speaker 2: turn down trillions of dollars.
Speaker 1: Well, but I mean, you know, like this guy made
Speaker 1: eleven million dollars a year. That's a ton of money.
Speaker 1: That's a ton of a lot that is nowhere near
Speaker 1: a billionaire billionaire top end thing. Eleven million dollars last
Speaker 1: year after taxes brings you down about five and a
Speaker 1: half retirement blah blah blah whatever. Plus most of that
Speaker 1: money's paid in shares, which you immediately have to pay
Speaker 1: a higher tax on if you sell it right away,
Speaker 1: and most of them you have to vest for like
Speaker 1: three to five years regardless. What does it mean? You
Speaker 1: just sit on it you have you can't sell it
Speaker 1: like you have to let us hit. So here's the thing.
Speaker 1: You may get your stock at ten dollars a share,
Speaker 1: and between now and the period when you can sell it,
Speaker 1: you might watch it go up to ten thousand dollars
Speaker 1: a share. Oh I can't sell it, I'm not allowed
Speaker 1: to sell it drops and then it drops down to
Speaker 1: four dollars a share, and now five years later you
Speaker 1: have forty percent of what your salary should have been. People, again,
Speaker 1: I'm not cheering for these guys who get, you know,
Speaker 1: ten million shares this quarter of something or I'm not like, oh,
Speaker 1: these guys should be. But I also don't think people
Speaker 1: know enough of how this stuff is paid and what
Speaker 1: a stock having a high stock value means for your mother,
Speaker 1: the teacher's pension or you know this over here, if
Speaker 1: there weren't whatever. Again, I'm not not gonna stand here
Speaker 1: and be like, listen, this guy should have made more money.
Speaker 1: If nah, I get it, and I don't think anyone
Speaker 1: should be killed. But I'm not crying for this.
Speaker 2: I'm not like guy should have been shooting one hundred
Speaker 2: dollars bills at him.
Speaker 1: I'm not crying for this guy any more than I'm
Speaker 1: crying for some gang member who got shot in the
Speaker 1: head somewhere as he was indiscriminately firing off bullets. It's
Speaker 1: just it's another death. Sucks for the people around it.
Speaker 1: But I'm not like ooh or man.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, Honestly, the sanest people to commit acts
Speaker 2: of violence are jihadists. Honestly, they are the sanest ones.
Speaker 2: They have a culture, a moral code, a religion, a
Speaker 2: social structure. They have everything enforcing reinforcing a particular belief,
Speaker 2: which is that if you kill the bad guys who
Speaker 2: are oppressing you, and you spread Islam, and you die
Speaker 2: in the process, you will be rewarded, you know, infinitely,
Speaker 2: in the afterlife. It makes sense why they do it.
Speaker 2: Right if you believe that shit? Fuck sign me up, motherfucker.
Speaker 1: Shit. Yeah that was who did Luisy Case did that
Speaker 1: joke about abortion and anti abortion people. And he's like,
Speaker 1: they think you're killing a kid. Like, he's like, I
Speaker 1: understand why they don't want you to do that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're so illogical. They don't want me to kill these kids.
Speaker 1: What the hell? Yeah? Yeah, I don't know. Now, let's
Speaker 1: transition real quick and we'll wrap on this all right.
Speaker 2: Let me grow a cock real quick. Jay Z, what
Speaker 2: is this? I saw this? Like, there's rumors about jay Z.
Speaker 2: Did he do something bad? Is Beyonce about to be
Speaker 2: on the market?
Speaker 1: Uh? And Beyonce is about to be in fucking Belize
Speaker 1: or somewhere where they can't extra dight her? What'd she do?
Speaker 1: I think? I don't know. I don't know. It don't
Speaker 1: look good. Let me pull it up, all right, dude.
Speaker 2: I was just listening to Renaissance on the car ride home.
Speaker 2: Don't ruin this for me.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, let's see all right. Jay Z was accused
Speaker 1: of sexually assaulting Zee at a Diddy party. A girl
Speaker 1: that was how old? Oh my god? Are you asking me? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I guess yeah, oh, I.
Speaker 2: Thought you were about to drop a headline on me
Speaker 2: eleven No.
Speaker 1: Thirteen. Pretty cool.
Speaker 2: Oh man, that's a nice setting. So wait a minute,
Speaker 2: when did this happen? Is this pre or post yance?
Speaker 1: Oh? I think three? Two thousand?
Speaker 2: Oh dude, that's like right on the cuss they know, right?
Speaker 1: Was that Bonnie and Clyde? No, Bonnie and Clyde? Oh three? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Then now they met up before that on Crazy in Love.
Speaker 1: Oh wait, I don't know. I don't know enough about
Speaker 1: music to argue with you.
Speaker 2: I think that's two thousand and one, two thousand. Fuck,
Speaker 2: it might even be ninety nine. Look up Crazy in Love. Okay,
Speaker 2: it's important. This is going to determine the scope of
Speaker 2: the investigation.
Speaker 1: Crazy and Lovers released in two thousand and three. Okay, okay, okay, okay,
Speaker 1: Thank god he didn't know? Jay? Why you dick smell
Speaker 1: like a little girl? Jay? Why you dick got all
Speaker 1: this hymen on it? You got all this hymen on it?
Speaker 2: I was gonna say these hymen chunks, but I spared
Speaker 2: you a little.
Speaker 1: Hey, our friend Nick wasn't the story with Robin that
Speaker 1: she blew out her hymen by falling on a uh
Speaker 1: fence or something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like she fell off a horse or something. But
Speaker 2: I she probably just fucked our friend Paul.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's so gross and if you're listening to this,
Speaker 1: you're a fucking bitch too. Anyway, Yeah, she looks like
Speaker 1: a sandworm from Dune. Oh okay, I thought you were
Speaker 1: going with a beetlejuice one.
Speaker 2: Oh, actually that's a more apt description because of her
Speaker 2: inner tooth, like like she had one of those mouths
Speaker 2: from Alien and like, yeah, yeah, the mouth comes out
Speaker 2: of the mouth and snaps and then goes back in.
Speaker 1: So uh. Jay Z has been accused in civil court
Speaker 1: of yeah, raping a kid never never a great way
Speaker 1: of saying that. He released a statement hold on hold man.
Speaker 2: One allegation doesn't mean shit, man. Michael Jackson beat like
Speaker 2: what fifty of them?
Speaker 1: Uh, yeah he did, but he had a lot more money. Maybe.
Speaker 1: I don't know, dude, Beyonce and jay Z are a power.
Speaker 1: I don't know you think jay Z or you think
Speaker 1: Beyonce's paying off her husband's fucking raping a kid lawsuit?
Speaker 1: I do. I think she's a ride or die. I
Speaker 1: think it's like, well.
Speaker 2: I didn't know about this when we got together.
Speaker 1: But I'm here for the long haul and the holong
Speaker 1: the long haul. Yeah. I think also.
Speaker 2: That remember a few years ago, maybe ten fifteen years
Speaker 2: ago at this point, Beyonce's sister Solange beat the shit
Speaker 2: out of jay Z in an elevator and Beyonce just
Speaker 2: stood there and.
Speaker 1: Smell like, Himan, Yeah, why you got a little kid
Speaker 1: juices on his dick.
Speaker 2: I think Beyonce will probably just deal with this her
Speaker 2: own way, you know, like she'll probably just cancel the
Speaker 2: DOJ investigation whatever whatever's going on on a legal level.
Speaker 2: Beyonce's like, I got it, I got it. Maybe they
Speaker 2: were go get me a switch from out in the field.
Speaker 2: Maybe they were banking on a Kamala win. Imagine if
Speaker 2: she walked in and she just issued a Hunter Biden
Speaker 2: pardon to all of Hollywood, like I mean, I mean,
Speaker 2: just one that or say what you want about Biden.
Speaker 2: Weinstein's fucking record and everything is.
Speaker 1: Say what you want about the Biden think, but the
Speaker 1: way it was written where it's like all of these
Speaker 1: years and anything done in that time or anything not
Speaker 1: found out that might have been done at that time,
Speaker 1: and be funny if commonly won and got in and
Speaker 1: started going like Diddy, lifetime pardon this person, lifetime pardon Bieber,
Speaker 1: You're gonna keep your mouth shut and we're gonna throw
Speaker 1: you in prison. Uh.
Speaker 2: You know what even funnier if once that, once Kamala
Speaker 2: got in office, video dropped of Hunter killing six prostitutes
Speaker 2: in a crackfield rage in twenty seventeen.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Uh, and it fit just perfectly into that. I
Speaker 1: don't think he was. I think he thought they were
Speaker 1: gonna win again and they would give him the pardon
Speaker 1: after or they would work with the Justice Department or
Speaker 1: whatever it was and get it back reduced to whatever,
Speaker 1: like time served or whatever bullshit. You know, we briefly
Speaker 1: touched on I don't we don't need to talk about
Speaker 1: it anymore. Like as a father, I totally get it.
Speaker 1: And yeah, his other kids are dead, you know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he wanted to put his last one in jail for
Speaker 1: fucking ten years. Yeah, he'd be like Andy Reid's kids.
Speaker 1: Andy Reid's kids, I think one is in jail. That's
Speaker 1: the head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs. Extremely successful
Speaker 1: head coach, one of the best of all time, makes
Speaker 1: a ton of money. I'm sure used to be the
Speaker 1: head coach of the Eagles for many years when you
Speaker 1: lived here as well.
Speaker 2: I've probably seen him then because my grandpa liked the Eagles.
Speaker 1: And one of his kids, I believe, got busted for
Speaker 1: selling heroin and he's in like real big boy prison.
Speaker 1: And then another one got easy charges because he was
Speaker 1: drunkenly driving his suv to the stadium and hit a
Speaker 1: car and it that made this little three year old
Speaker 1: girl brain dad or something else retarded and ship now
Speaker 1: and he got like probation or something. Oh my god, money,
Speaker 1: why does that work? I still I will never understand why.
Speaker 1: I guess a better lawyer gets you out of things, which,
Speaker 1: by the way, not to tie it all back, but
Speaker 1: jay Z will have very good lawyers. I assume, no,
Speaker 1: he's gonna he's gonna get the singing lawyer from more money.
Speaker 1: Is it is having a more expensive lawyer because they
Speaker 1: can do more things like order expensive testing or delay
Speaker 1: things because of certain reasons or blah blah blah. I
Speaker 1: think a lot of it is.
Speaker 2: Yeah, money is one thing, but I think it's also
Speaker 2: just like you can pay for an attorney with an
Speaker 2: attitude or reputation, one that is not afraid to waste time,
Speaker 2: like you said. So it's like if you have a
Speaker 2: pushover DA or something right, and you have a fucking
Speaker 2: just a shark of a defense attorney, you might have
Speaker 2: a defense attorney that can convince a prosecutor. Look, I
Speaker 2: will fucking eat you alive in a courtroom. I don't
Speaker 2: care what evidence you have. I will destroy you. Just
Speaker 2: just give him a plea deal and we'll pay. We'll
Speaker 2: haven't pay his debt to society. We'll move on, or
Speaker 2: we can drag this out for two more years and
Speaker 2: I can drag you through the fucking mud, you know.
Speaker 1: You know, then if that is true in that way,
Speaker 1: which sounds reasonable to me to an extent, I mean,
Speaker 1: that's not even on the the lawyers. That's on pussy
Speaker 1: DA's to me, I think there's probably pussy DA sure
Speaker 1: for sure. I mean, but I don't know that there's
Speaker 1: strong arm in all of them. I think sometimes it's
Speaker 1: probably about having the money to be able to stretch
Speaker 1: this over two years.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can look at It's probably has a lot
Speaker 2: to do with jurisdiction and area too, Like I'm willing
Speaker 2: to bet awful like shitty, you know, three thousand person
Speaker 2: counties in Georgia, where there's like there's forty towns spread
Speaker 2: out across four thousand square miles and you know that
Speaker 2: there's a sheriff for the whole county that I'm sure
Speaker 2: areas like that don't have great you know, prosecutors, investigators,
Speaker 2: all sorts of shit. It's probably a lot easier in
Speaker 2: those areas, but you could always just look at like
Speaker 2: conviction rates or whatever. But I know, with like federal
Speaker 2: charges federal cases, if you get indicted for a federal crime,
Speaker 2: it's like a ninety five percent conviction.
Speaker 1: Rate, you're probably fucked.
Speaker 2: So when you don't get convicted for a federal crime,
Speaker 2: that's when it's interesting to look at like, oh why not,
Speaker 2: you know, But for little local jurisdictions and states and stuff,
Speaker 2: it's way harder to figure out, like are they getting paid,
Speaker 2: did they suck at their job?
Speaker 1: What's going on? Are the Jews in control of this one? Sure? Yeah? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Was there a hurricane that day when he was supposed
Speaker 2: to be sentenced?
Speaker 1: What do you think about Daniel Penny? Daniel Penny is
Speaker 1: that the guy who killed the Michael Jackson? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't remember the details of that case, but
Speaker 2: was that a murder or no, I can't remember.
Speaker 1: They charged it as like a man's it was prison time,
Speaker 1: however they charged it. I watched the video. When we
Speaker 1: watched the video where we like, oh my god, or
Speaker 1: was it like you only really saw the end. And
Speaker 1: since then, I've seen bodycam footage of the cops talking
Speaker 1: to witnesses that day, and the one thing that really
Speaker 1: convinced me, this old black lady was like that guy
Speaker 1: came on the train screaming, acting nuts, he got in
Speaker 1: a girl's face, and that boy, he just he put
Speaker 1: him to do. He held on to him to stop
Speaker 1: him so we would stop freaking out. Blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 1: And then the lady you could tell she needed to
Speaker 1: move on. She had gotten off the train. And then
Speaker 1: one cops like, can you tell that to my sergeant
Speaker 1: who's gonna be here, And the lady's like yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'll wait around, I'll wait around. She really wanted it
Speaker 1: to be known, and she like said every time, like
Speaker 1: that man saved us. We didn't know what was gonna happen,
Speaker 1: that he was freaking out in there, blah blah blah.
Speaker 1: That I mean, I had already had my view, but
Speaker 1: that just from the details, I knew that was to
Speaker 1: me like, oh, it might have been just a bad place,
Speaker 1: bad time. I don't know. I should have just.
Speaker 2: Pulled out his silence gun and shot that guy.
Speaker 1: How did Vinnie? How did Andrew's brother used to do
Speaker 1: gun sounds in high school? Yeah? Right? And then lasers?
Speaker 1: Do you remember lasers?
Speaker 2: I think he said, zap, zap zap.
Speaker 1: What the fuck?
Speaker 2: Did he ever shoot a laser before?
Speaker 1: I don't think he ever shot a laser before? No,
Speaker 1: not when he was hunting frogs in the suburbs.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think he did either, because I think
Speaker 2: lasers make more of a.
Speaker 1: Do you remember do you remember that time he was
Speaker 1: sitting at their kitchen table? Maybe not, Maybe you weren't.
Speaker 1: There was a making up a day. No, I mean,
Speaker 1: might as well have tried to sell it to me
Speaker 1: for a nickel. He was one of those kids, like
Speaker 1: I found these rocks outside. Do you want to give
Speaker 1: me pennies for him? I'm like, dude, I'm thinking about pussy.
Speaker 1: I don't want to buy. Okay, I'll take that one
Speaker 1: and maybe a couple of those. I got some pennies
Speaker 1: to spare. He's retiring next year. He is all those
Speaker 1: rock sales. Yeah, no, he's big and crypto, yeah, all
Speaker 1: those rock sales. Yeah. I'm gonna take this penny you
Speaker 1: gave me, and by digital currency, all right, Vinny. So
Speaker 1: he was sitting at the kitchen table with a bucket
Speaker 1: of frogs, just cutting their legs off, like Jesus Christ.
Speaker 1: For what he was gonna eat them? What the fuck?
Speaker 2: What was he gonna do with the rest of the frogs.
Speaker 1: Put them back outside, let him hop home, crochet little
Speaker 1: fucking fleshlights out of them. Yeah, I don't know. It
Speaker 1: was so gross. That's a weird thing. Yeah, I don't
Speaker 1: like being around slimy thing.
Speaker 2: Wait a minute, you're you're you're telling me he caught
Speaker 2: frogs out in the wild and then he.
Speaker 1: Ate those frogs when we were kids.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Oh my god, dude, No wonder his fucking hair
Speaker 2: is falling out. Jesus Christ. He probably just ate raw
Speaker 2: sewage every day. He retarded himself, well, I mean he yeah,
Speaker 2: he gave himself like that, uh that quarterback ability. He
Speaker 2: can probably be a fucking total idiot, but he can
Speaker 2: just see how all the crypto lines fall down the
Speaker 2: matrix and and how everything's gonna play out over the
Speaker 2: long haul in the stock market and everything.
Speaker 1: I have ten million pay pay coins right now, pay
Speaker 1: pay coins, yeah, Peppy whatever the frog?
Speaker 2: I he he has a currency now?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah yeah? Okay, what is the value? What it's what?
Speaker 1: What do you get out of that? Ten million coins?
Speaker 1: Cost me like two hundred dollars?
Speaker 2: Okay, but what are you going to do with those coins?
Speaker 1: Man?
Speaker 2: Taking the Dave and busters.
Speaker 1: I no, you know, because they're not real coins. So
Speaker 1: just they're electrical coins. Okay, so you can use them
Speaker 1: to play like Pokemon or roadblocks. Maybe you could roadblocks,
Speaker 1: that's possible, but uh no, no, no, it's just more
Speaker 1: of they're a coin with a racist frog.
Speaker 2: Go on it. Oh so it's like those NFTs where
Speaker 2: you can hang them up in your digital library. It's
Speaker 2: not even that walk around there with your VR headset
Speaker 2: and look at all your monkey paintings. No, this one
Speaker 2: has a green background, this one has an orange background. No,
Speaker 2: this one has yellow sunglasses, this one has pink sunglasses.
Speaker 1: No, it's not even that. You can't even do that.
Speaker 1: It's just a coin. You can't look at the coin,
Speaker 1: not really. No, it's just a number.
Speaker 2: Is it like a cool do they get you a
Speaker 2: cool like unique number? He's like, you know how you
Speaker 2: buy a vinyl and it's like, this is number sixty
Speaker 2: one hundred and thirty two out of one hundred thousand.
Speaker 1: No, it's randomly generated.
Speaker 2: What the fuck, dude. It's not even in a cool sequence.
Speaker 2: So I can be like I'm the thirty seventh one
Speaker 2: to get this fucking frog. No, oh my god, dude,
Speaker 2: this is not a good investment.
Speaker 1: I feel like you can't even have fun with it.
Speaker 1: We're gonna wrap this one up. Uh no, fan questions
Speaker 1: actually fuck them? Then?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I never even liked them. I wasn't gonna answer
Speaker 2: any questions anyway.
Speaker 1: I got to think up something fun to do for
Speaker 1: next time. I'm a private guy. I haven't even thought
Speaker 1: of it. Oh, I had a great idea. What was it.
Speaker 1: I was going to tell you and the fans what
Speaker 1: I thought of them. Oh that's good. Yeah, all right,
Speaker 1: we're gonna go to the Patreon. Oh, I guess I
Speaker 1: should announce what I'm going to do. I'm going to
Speaker 1: take all of the old episodes one to two fifty
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna reload them on the feed. The current
Speaker 1: your Worst Friend feed. No commercials except maybe at the end,
Speaker 1: so listen through those. Let that auto play. No commercials.
Speaker 1: But I'm going to do one episode today. So starting
Speaker 1: January first, every night at midnight, Episode one, next day
Speaker 1: episode two, Episode three, and on day two hundred and
Speaker 1: fifty whatever that is is of the year. What is
Speaker 1: the two hundred and fiftieth day of the year. It's
Speaker 1: number two fifty, just by default day. Oh, I think
Speaker 1: it's a Tuesday. It is, that's what you meant, September seventh.
Speaker 1: So I will find a way to space it out
Speaker 1: four days so we can wrap the show up again
Speaker 1: next year on nine to eleven. I think that's weir.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we could actually just spend the whole year doing
Speaker 2: a nine to eleven show.
Speaker 1: I don't know what you're talking about, Like, we just
Speaker 1: spend all year recording. We're not recording anymore. No, no,
Speaker 1: we'll spend all year. You just spend the year doing
Speaker 1: the show. If we were going to do that.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, it's a nine to eleven show. We're
Speaker 2: just doing one episode, but we spend the year doing it.
Speaker 2: So it's like how many minutes are in a year?
Speaker 1: Say, okay, this is like a fucking Rent song. H Well,
Speaker 1: how about we do this. How about we just meet
Speaker 1: once a day for one minute a day and record
Speaker 1: thirty seconds of audio every day and it's all I like.
Speaker 1: I like how we have to have fifteen second buffers
Speaker 1: on either side too. We'll meet for a minute and
Speaker 1: we'll record thirty seconds of audio. Yeah, so we can
Speaker 1: get the audio set up. And there's five hundred Oh
Speaker 1: I remember this from the song Rent. There's five hundred
Speaker 1: twenty five thousand, six hundred minutes in a year. Oh.
Speaker 1: I thought that was their t cell count for your
Speaker 1: worst friend I met. I'm not impressed with our audience. Bye,
Speaker 1: thanks for listening. We'll see you next week. You know
Speaker 1: I want us all a quor nothing. Bro.
Speaker 2: I'm really gonna miss you guys when the show's over.
