There we go, There we go. 26 00:01:32.920 --> 00:01:35.079 Just because you're a boom microphone doesn't mean you have 27 00:01:35.159 --> 00:01:37.640 to be all up in the sky.

You're fine, You're doing good. You mench 32 00:01:55.239 --> 00:02:01.640 I they So I want to start with why I'm 33 00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:04.959 not feeling very thankful? Okay, I'm freaking one step away 34 00:02:04.959 --> 00:02:08.520 from depressed as hell. There's even a giant dark cloud 35 00:02:08.599 --> 00:02:11.159 over my house right now, not making that up. It's 36 00:02:11.159 --> 00:02:14.080 snowing out in Red Rock and there's a big black 37 00:02:14.280 --> 00:02:18.319 cloud over the park over my house, and I feel 38 00:02:18.360 --> 00:02:20.719 it's a metaphor. I even said that at the park. 39 00:02:20.759 --> 00:02:22.840 I said, oh, that dark cloud could be a metaphor. 40 00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:26.240 And this tattooed bearded guy playing with his dog says, 41 00:02:26.479 --> 00:02:28.759 oh no, the next four years are gonna be great. 42 00:02:29.719 --> 00:02:34.800 And I'm like, you stupid fuck. As Trump is announcing 43 00:02:34.879 --> 00:02:37.840 his tarifs this morning. They're going to cripple you and 44 00:02:37.879 --> 00:02:41.280 I they are. You can't afford to pay thirty percent 45 00:02:41.319 --> 00:02:45.080 more for goods, You just can't. The New York Times 46 00:02:45.080 --> 00:02:50.240 says Trump's tariffs will cripple trade. Maybe the New York 47 00:02:50.240 --> 00:02:51.759 Times should have been a little more aware of that 48 00:02:52.080 --> 00:02:55.479 as they were doing stories that pumped him up. The 49 00:02:55.520 --> 00:02:58.719 New York Times is partially responsible for Trump, and now 50 00:02:58.719 --> 00:03:02.439 they're like, oh, we's got or cripple trade. Yeah, no shit, 51 00:03:03.599 --> 00:03:05.759 we knew that back then. Why didn't you New York 52 00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:10.960 Times Because you're just idiots. So this morning, I have 53 00:03:11.000 --> 00:03:13.159 a gay friend who lives in Georgia with his mom, 54 00:03:14.120 --> 00:03:17.719 and he's fifty plus but he takes care of her, 55 00:03:17.719 --> 00:03:20.080 and you know, he works in healthcare and they're loving 56 00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:22.960 their life in Valdosta. So he had come out to 57 00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:26.360 visit me, and you know, and last year or this year, 58 00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:29.159 I forget when, but you know, we remain friends. So 59 00:03:29.680 --> 00:03:31.919 this morning he sent a thing that said, oh, look, 60 00:03:31.960 --> 00:03:34.400 it's sixty seven here already. Lovely, I said, it's forty 61 00:03:34.439 --> 00:03:37.479 eight here and he said, another reason to move to 62 00:03:37.560 --> 00:03:41.639 the beautiful East Coast. You'd be a smash here, And 63 00:03:41.680 --> 00:03:44.280 I said, han, I know you support him and probably 64 00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:47.039 voted for him, but Trump is about to make it 65 00:03:47.080 --> 00:03:50.360 too expensive for me to live in the USA. Twenty 66 00:03:50.360 --> 00:03:54.199 five percent tariffs on Mexico and Canada mean fruits and 67 00:03:54.319 --> 00:03:58.400 vegetables which I eat, go up thirty percent or more. 68 00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:02.599 That means a antelope that is currently four dollars will 69 00:04:02.639 --> 00:04:06.479 now be five dollars and thirty cents pineapples will go 70 00:04:06.520 --> 00:04:09.719 to four fifty each. I may have to look into 71 00:04:09.800 --> 00:04:13.879 Mexico or another country just so I can eat because 72 00:04:13.919 --> 00:04:17.040 I am a vegan. Of course, if you're not a vegan, 73 00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:20.720 beef coming from Canada, which forty percent of ours does, 74 00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:23.519 is going to go up thirty percent as well. So 75 00:04:23.639 --> 00:04:28.199 get ready for fifteen dollars hamburger. I'm not being hysterical. 76 00:04:28.639 --> 00:04:31.439 I'm just telling you like it is. Things are about 77 00:04:31.480 --> 00:04:34.560 to go way high, and I live on a fixed income. 78 00:04:34.759 --> 00:04:37.680 It ain't gonna cut it unless I get this show 79 00:04:37.720 --> 00:04:42.480 going in Las Vegas, or my podcast pays more, or 80 00:04:42.600 --> 00:04:46.160 I find another passion. I said, but you know I'm 81 00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:49.160 too old to be a hooker. He said, think positive, 82 00:04:49.199 --> 00:04:52.720 It's all going to be okay. I said, for you, yes, 83 00:04:52.920 --> 00:04:55.800 you have a job in the medical field. Everyone needs 84 00:04:55.800 --> 00:04:58.800 the medical field, and it currently pays well. For those 85 00:04:58.800 --> 00:05:03.079 of us on a fixed income, not so much. He said, Oh, 86 00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:05.839 we could always get married. We have faith in the positive. 87 00:05:06.360 --> 00:05:08.879 I said, why are you a citizen of Mexico or Canada. 88 00:05:08.959 --> 00:05:11.480 I need an Irishman that wants a husband in name only, 89 00:05:11.600 --> 00:05:14.600 or a Frenchman or a Spaniard, he said, just be 90 00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:18.439 an American. You worry too much. I said, no, I 91 00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:22.480 am just realistically watching the world. I'm worried, but that's 92 00:05:22.720 --> 00:05:25.360 because i know what is going to happen, and I'm 93 00:05:25.360 --> 00:05:29.160 trying to find a place that i can thrive. He goes, 94 00:05:29.160 --> 00:05:32.000 I never worry about all that stuff, you know. Stay 95 00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:34.480 in the moment, stay in the day. You sound like 96 00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:38.240 Rachel Maddow. I said, oh good, she's a Rhodes scholar 97 00:05:38.279 --> 00:05:43.319 with two PhDs. Well, she's an idiot. Can you imagine? 98 00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:46.360 I said, she's smarter than you or I, smart enough 99 00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:49.160 to make twenty five million a year. Good for her, 100 00:05:49.240 --> 00:05:53.519 but she acts like an unhinged freak. Rachel Maddow, he's 101 00:05:53.560 --> 00:05:58.839 referring to I said, she speaks three languages and as 102 00:05:58.839 --> 00:06:01.480 a Rhodes scholar. He goes, not impressed. You can be 103 00:06:01.519 --> 00:06:03.839 smart and still act like an idiot. And then I 104 00:06:03.879 --> 00:06:06.680 sent him the story Trump threatens to impose sweeping new 105 00:06:06.839 --> 00:06:10.160 tariffs on Mexico and Canada and China. I said, this 106 00:06:10.199 --> 00:06:13.720 will raise prices thirty percent. I am not making this up. 107 00:06:14.120 --> 00:06:17.560 I don't have thirty percent for more groceries. It's not fear, 108 00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:21.240 it's what's gonna happen. Oh, you're negative. I'm not this 109 00:06:21.360 --> 00:06:24.000 type of conversation person. You can have it with Rachel. 110 00:06:24.120 --> 00:06:29.360 I'm happy and thriving. Well, good for you, you got yours. 111 00:06:29.360 --> 00:06:31.759 So who the fuck cares if others go hungry? Who 112 00:06:31.800 --> 00:06:34.079 cares if people won't be able to make rent gas 113 00:06:34.079 --> 00:06:36.639 and pay for food. I mean, let them eat cake, 114 00:06:37.199 --> 00:06:39.720 stale old cake, but let them eat it, all right, 115 00:06:39.759 --> 00:06:43.240 miss Antoinette, But remember it didn't end well for her. 116 00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:49.759 He's all calmed down, and this is the problem that 117 00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:53.600 we're facing. These people like the guy in the park 118 00:06:53.639 --> 00:06:55.519 this morning. He said, oh, the next four years are 119 00:06:55.560 --> 00:06:59.000 going to be great, and like this Matt's Matt in 120 00:06:59.079 --> 00:07:02.879 Atlanta in Valdosta, who says, oh, you know, Rachel Maddow 121 00:07:02.920 --> 00:07:05.399 is a free can come. You know what? They discredit 122 00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:11.480 learned individuals. They discredit any news story that actually goes 123 00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:18.160 against their belief. They actually believe that the oligarchs are 124 00:07:18.160 --> 00:07:22.600 going to make life better for them. These people are 125 00:07:22.639 --> 00:07:28.319 not only stupid, they've proven to be dangerous. And now 126 00:07:28.439 --> 00:07:33.519 Trump gets the charges dropped against him. So the coup worked. 127 00:07:35.279 --> 00:07:37.519 Now I don't know about you, but two days away 128 00:07:37.519 --> 00:07:41.240 from Thanksgiving, I'm finding it hard to really keep my 129 00:07:41.319 --> 00:07:45.720 mood up knowing that January sixth, twenty six or twenty 130 00:07:45.759 --> 00:07:51.720 twenty a coup occurred and it was successful. He is 131 00:07:51.839 --> 00:07:56.639 back in office in January. He has unbridled power, with 132 00:07:56.720 --> 00:08:00.720 a Republican House and Senate, an immunity from the Supreme Court, 133 00:08:01.279 --> 00:08:05.920 and he was never prosecuted for his crimes, including the 134 00:08:06.000 --> 00:08:10.759 Document's case, proving that we have two systems of justice. 135 00:08:12.360 --> 00:08:15.199 They can no longer say that no one is above 136 00:08:15.240 --> 00:08:19.680 the law. He is. And so I don't know about you, 137 00:08:19.959 --> 00:08:22.800 but that is weighing on me. It's weighing on my 138 00:08:22.879 --> 00:08:26.759 friend Steve. It's weighing on my friends in California. It's 139 00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:29.639 weighing on Hannah, and she's doing okay, but it's weighing 140 00:08:29.720 --> 00:08:35.159 on her. It's weighing on everybody I know, because they 141 00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:40.720 know they're not idiot maga. They know how bad this 142 00:08:40.879 --> 00:08:46.000 is about to get and how unaffordable our nation is 143 00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:53.759 about to get, and they know there's absolutely nothing we 144 00:08:53.879 --> 00:08:59.399 can do to stop it. They have seized power. And 145 00:08:59.440 --> 00:09:02.039 he keeps saying saying a mandate. And now you see 146 00:09:02.080 --> 00:09:05.720 all these stories saying he didn't get fifty percent of 147 00:09:05.759 --> 00:09:10.759 the electorate. It is not a mandate. He got forty 148 00:09:10.840 --> 00:09:15.720 nine point seven percent of the electorates and Kamala got 149 00:09:15.879 --> 00:09:22.200 forty eight point nine percent, not even one percent of 150 00:09:22.320 --> 00:09:27.919 the electorate. Separate the two of us. That's not a mandate, epics. 151 00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:30.519 It is they're going with the lie that it is. 152 00:09:32.840 --> 00:09:35.759 Want to support the Courl Castle, then like and subscribe 153 00:09:35.799 --> 00:09:39.039 the YouTube videos at the really Corel channel.

And all day I tried to get 182 00:11:46.759 --> 00:11:50.720 to the grocery store. I did all day. And you 183 00:11:50.759 --> 00:11:55.679 know what I could do? Be depressed, look for houses 184 00:11:55.679 --> 00:11:58.360 in other countries, and then realize I don't have the 185 00:11:58.399 --> 00:12:04.480 resources to go look for houses in California. Then realize 186 00:12:04.559 --> 00:12:09.559 I'd have to get in debt to go. Realize that 187 00:12:10.039 --> 00:12:12.799 half of the people I talk to think this guy 188 00:12:12.919 --> 00:12:15.159 is okay, that this that we're going to be fine, 189 00:12:16.279 --> 00:12:19.679 and that I have nothing in common with them. Feeling 190 00:12:19.840 --> 00:12:24.279 out of place in my own community and my own 191 00:12:24.360 --> 00:12:28.159 country all over again. You know, in the when I 192 00:12:28.200 --> 00:12:30.360 was in my twenties and thirties and teens, I felt 193 00:12:30.360 --> 00:12:33.919 out of place because I was gay. Now I feel 194 00:12:33.919 --> 00:12:37.440 out of place because I know what's going to happen, 195 00:12:38.360 --> 00:12:42.320 and people just don't. The sky really is falling, and 196 00:12:42.399 --> 00:12:45.759 Chicken Little is running around telling everybody and nobody cares. 197 00:12:46.120 --> 00:12:50.799 They don't care if the sky falls on them. So 198 00:12:50.919 --> 00:12:54.000 yesterday afternoon, I said, you know what you have your 199 00:12:54.039 --> 00:12:58.639 condo Ember is alive. The spot on her liver wasn't 200 00:12:58.679 --> 00:13:00.600 cancer at least we don't think it is. And six 201 00:13:00.639 --> 00:13:06.240 months we'll do it again. Your bills are paid, your 202 00:13:06.279 --> 00:13:09.600 credit score is seven to eighty, you know, so you're 203 00:13:11.480 --> 00:13:13.639 you've got some friends that you can still reach out 204 00:13:13.720 --> 00:13:17.159 to on the phone. You've got your show. Yes, it's little, 205 00:13:17.440 --> 00:13:20.000 and you have to grovel and beg for patrons like 206 00:13:20.080 --> 00:13:24.480 some street urchin, like a busker. I'm big. Podcasters are buskers. 207 00:13:24.559 --> 00:13:27.960 Now we put on our hat called Patreon, and we 208 00:13:28.080 --> 00:13:30.639 hope that you throw some money in it. It's demeaning. 209 00:13:31.919 --> 00:13:34.519 I love you, and I love my patrons. I do, 210 00:13:34.919 --> 00:13:37.679 but personally, can I tell you how demeaning it is 211 00:13:38.159 --> 00:13:40.879 to have to beg you for five dollars a month 212 00:13:41.240 --> 00:13:44.480 so I can at least eat and pay my bills. 213 00:13:46.519 --> 00:13:50.519 It's demeaning that liberals make other liberals grovel for money, 214 00:13:51.360 --> 00:13:54.639 and they do. It's always been the way it is 215 00:13:54.679 --> 00:13:58.000 in progressive media. That's why there is no progressive media. 216 00:13:58.279 --> 00:14:01.840 There literally is no money in it. And yes, Jeff 217 00:14:01.840 --> 00:14:05.120 Miller is filling up auditoriums on her Sexy Liberal tour, 218 00:14:05.360 --> 00:14:08.679 two thousand seed auditoriums. She's not filling up the arenas. 219 00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:13.600 She's not making millions per show. They're clearing thousands, which 220 00:14:13.639 --> 00:14:16.240 is great and I'd love to be a part, but 221 00:14:16.679 --> 00:14:20.480 you know, Ben Shapiro could get ten thousand people to attend, 222 00:14:22.320 --> 00:14:25.559 And so I have to grovel for five dollars donations, 223 00:14:26.320 --> 00:14:29.200 or I have to put up with questions from supporters 224 00:14:29.240 --> 00:14:31.559 who have sent large amounts of money, well where did 225 00:14:31.559 --> 00:14:33.240 the money go? Or why don't you have the money? 226 00:14:33.320 --> 00:14:34.639 Or you said you were going to do this with 227 00:14:34.720 --> 00:14:38.720 the money. I literally have to be accountable to fans 228 00:14:39.039 --> 00:14:43.080 who have donated to me because they send an email 229 00:14:43.080 --> 00:14:44.480 and say, I thought you were going to make an 230 00:14:44.480 --> 00:14:46.639 app with that money. They don't know that I did 231 00:14:46.679 --> 00:14:48.480 make the app, but then it's too much money to 232 00:14:48.559 --> 00:14:54.480 host the app. They don't know, you know. And the 233 00:14:54.559 --> 00:15:00.080 fact that I have to actually rely upon donations, it's demeaning. 234 00:15:00.159 --> 00:15:03.720 I don't want to do business this way. I'm used 235 00:15:03.720 --> 00:15:08.559 to being paid by ABC, CBS, NBC, you know. I'm 236 00:15:08.639 --> 00:15:10.720 used to going out and doing shows and walking away 237 00:15:10.720 --> 00:15:14.840 with three or four thousand dollars that night. Now I 238 00:15:15.039 --> 00:15:18.039 beg every day for eight hundred and fifty three dollars 239 00:15:18.120 --> 00:15:23.919 a month. Look and without it, I'd be screwed. So 240 00:15:23.960 --> 00:15:26.320 of course I'm going to keep doing the song and dance, 241 00:15:26.679 --> 00:15:28.600 and of course I'm going to keep begging people to 242 00:15:28.639 --> 00:15:32.159 support me on Patreon. Without it, I'd literally have to 243 00:15:32.240 --> 00:15:35.679 drive Uber or door dash or something, and that would 244 00:15:35.679 --> 00:15:39.919 be so humiliating, a history making talk show host, a 245 00:15:40.120 --> 00:15:44.799 gay leader having to drive for door Dash. But that's 246 00:15:44.799 --> 00:15:48.720 where we're headed. That's where I'm headed. I can't live 247 00:15:48.720 --> 00:15:50.960 off the eight fifty if that doesn't get up to 248 00:15:51.000 --> 00:15:54.159 one thousand or fifteen hundred a month soon, you know. 249 00:15:55.360 --> 00:15:57.840 And so I try to change the show. I'd just 250 00:15:57.879 --> 00:16:00.720 like you try to change your life. You try to say, Okay, 251 00:16:00.720 --> 00:16:02.320 how am I going to get through this? How am 252 00:16:02.320 --> 00:16:04.559 I going to live through this? What have I got 253 00:16:04.559 --> 00:16:08.919 to do? And that's where I'm at. It's like, what 254 00:16:09.000 --> 00:16:10.679 have you got to do to get through this? Chuck? 255 00:16:10.720 --> 00:16:13.759 You're a vegan and it's going to be so expensive 256 00:16:13.799 --> 00:16:17.679 fruits and vegetables because of Trump. What are you gonna 257 00:16:17.720 --> 00:16:22.000 do to bite your tongue When these people say things like, oh, 258 00:16:22.039 --> 00:16:24.799 the next four years are going to be great, how 259 00:16:24.840 --> 00:16:27.879 do you not get in a fight. I'm listening to 260 00:16:27.919 --> 00:16:30.759 Barbara Streisand's book, and she's talking about the way we were, 261 00:16:31.159 --> 00:16:33.919 and she's talking about how she relates to Katie Morowski, 262 00:16:34.279 --> 00:16:39.480 the character who said people are their principles when she 263 00:16:39.639 --> 00:16:42.320 fought with Hubble, and Hubble said, why do you do 264 00:16:42.399 --> 00:16:45.399 it all? You know, Yeah, they're being dragged before Congress 265 00:16:45.480 --> 00:16:48.159 right now, but in five years they'll all make pictures again, 266 00:16:48.480 --> 00:16:50.519 and what will you What would all this have been for? 267 00:16:52.360 --> 00:16:55.080 And she said, so you want me to ignore my 268 00:16:55.320 --> 00:16:59.399 principles And he said, no, I want you to, you know, 269 00:16:59.519 --> 00:17:04.759 live And she said, but people are their principles. I 270 00:17:04.799 --> 00:17:10.079 am my principles. Today Walmart announced they're cutting back diversity, 271 00:17:10.200 --> 00:17:13.759 equity and inclusion. Does that make me want to go 272 00:17:13.799 --> 00:17:18.960 to Walmart? No, I don't fuck you. Walmart cutting back 273 00:17:19.000 --> 00:17:23.000 your DEI, making sure women aren't in the boardroom, days 274 00:17:23.279 --> 00:17:27.839 aren't in the boardroom, Blacks aren't in the boardroom, sending 275 00:17:27.839 --> 00:17:31.039 the word to other companies that they don't need DEI anymore, 276 00:17:31.119 --> 00:17:34.000 get rid of it. Does that make me want to 277 00:17:34.039 --> 00:17:35.440 go shop at that store? 278 00:17:35.599 --> 00:17:35.680 No? 279 00:17:36.279 --> 00:17:41.960 But everyone's cutting back their DEI everybody. It's the time. 280 00:17:44.039 --> 00:17:46.680 We're in dark times, and yet we're told it's the holidays. 281 00:17:46.920 --> 00:17:50.440 Go spend money, go buy things, Go get your Christmas decorations. 282 00:17:50.440 --> 00:17:54.359 It's Black Friday. Black Friday, a day when they're rich 283 00:17:54.880 --> 00:17:58.160 sit in front of their televisions to watch the poor 284 00:17:58.240 --> 00:18:03.680 people fight over stuff that they can't normally afford. Old stuff, 285 00:18:04.000 --> 00:18:08.000 old models, not brand new beautiful things, TVs that are 286 00:18:08.000 --> 00:18:11.319 a year old stuff that the companies can't sell, and 287 00:18:11.359 --> 00:18:15.359 suddenly they market way down. Otherwise I'd have to trash 288 00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:19.240 it or you know whatever, And people literally fight to 289 00:18:19.319 --> 00:18:24.880 get the deals to the rich people's amusement. Black Friday 290 00:18:24.960 --> 00:18:30.920 is demeaning. It's demeaning that corporations wait for one day 291 00:18:30.920 --> 00:18:35.200 a year to make things actually affordable. It's like the 292 00:18:35.319 --> 00:18:39.599 Purge because on that one day you gotta go buyff 293 00:18:39.599 --> 00:18:41.839 and a lot of you don't buy frivolous stuff on 294 00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:47.839 Black Friday. You buy stuff you need, thoughts, underwear, maybe 295 00:18:47.839 --> 00:18:52.359 a new TV because yours went out or whatever. But hey, 296 00:18:53.200 --> 00:18:56.359 go spend the money, spend a fortune on food for Thanksgiving, 297 00:18:56.400 --> 00:18:58.519 and then go out shopping the day after for Christmas, 298 00:18:58.599 --> 00:19:04.039 and then spend lots more money. Make civilionaires happen. Well, 299 00:19:04.079 --> 00:19:10.839 you trouble, you know, I read a quote. I'll read 300 00:19:10.880 --> 00:19:12.359 it to you when I come back to prove none 301 00:19:12.400 --> 00:19:14.160 of that.

And let's keep 319 00:20:09.079 --> 00:20:25.519 the party going as long as we can. You know, 320 00:20:25.599 --> 00:20:28.480 I know, being literate isn't chic anymore, and that quoting 321 00:20:28.599 --> 00:20:33.839 authors is not in vogue. But I'm old, and Charles 322 00:20:33.880 --> 00:20:38.200 Dickens wrote something a long time ago. It's very famous, 323 00:20:38.920 --> 00:20:40.519 but I want to read it to you to show 324 00:20:40.759 --> 00:20:44.200 to give you some encouragement, because we do have to 325 00:20:44.240 --> 00:20:47.359 find things to be thankful for. Now that I've bitched 326 00:20:47.359 --> 00:20:49.519 for two segments, this is where we bring it all 327 00:20:49.519 --> 00:20:53.200 home and tell you you, yes, you still have to 328 00:20:53.319 --> 00:20:57.720 be thankful, And let me read this to you. It 329 00:20:57.799 --> 00:21:00.279 was the best of times. It was the worst of time. 330 00:21:00.960 --> 00:21:03.160 It was the age of wisdom, It was the age 331 00:21:03.200 --> 00:21:06.920 of foolishness. It was the epoch of belief, it was 332 00:21:06.920 --> 00:21:10.480 the epoch of incredulity. It was the season of light, 333 00:21:11.119 --> 00:21:14.279 and was the season of darkness. It was the spring 334 00:21:14.319 --> 00:21:17.960 of hope, it was the winter of despair. We had 335 00:21:18.000 --> 00:21:21.960 everything before us, we had nothing before us. We were 336 00:21:22.039 --> 00:21:25.519 all going direct to heaven, we were all going direct 337 00:21:25.519 --> 00:21:29.519 to hell. In short, the period was so far like 338 00:21:29.599 --> 00:21:33.519 the present period that some of its noisiest authorities insisted 339 00:21:33.559 --> 00:21:37.039 on its being received for good or for evil. In 340 00:21:37.119 --> 00:21:42.680 the superlative degree of comparison. Only. It was the best 341 00:21:42.720 --> 00:21:46.920 of times, it was the worst of times. None of 342 00:21:46.920 --> 00:21:52.519 this is new, Okay, it's not. Nothing Trump is going 343 00:21:52.599 --> 00:21:56.240 to do is new. Nothing the Americans are saying or 344 00:21:56.279 --> 00:22:02.160 doing is new. Maga is not. And yet through it 345 00:22:02.200 --> 00:22:08.359 all we have survived as a species, as a culture, 346 00:22:09.160 --> 00:22:15.480 as a society. Through it all, some have thrived. The 347 00:22:15.559 --> 00:22:19.359 poorest among us have been the happiest among us at times. 348 00:22:20.920 --> 00:22:26.519 And so this Thanksgiving week, I do want you to 349 00:22:26.640 --> 00:22:34.640 concentrate on the good, to act, scituate the positive, eiminate 350 00:22:34.759 --> 00:22:38.079 the negative. This will all be a memory one day, 351 00:22:38.119 --> 00:22:40.799 not a good one, but it will all be a memory. 352 00:22:42.039 --> 00:22:51.279 And your sanity, your life is the most important thing. 353 00:22:52.480 --> 00:22:56.799 You know. When we look back on our lives, we 354 00:22:56.880 --> 00:23:01.119 don't look back on the political regimes. We look back 355 00:23:01.160 --> 00:23:04.960 on the Thanksgivings that we had with friends or family, 356 00:23:05.119 --> 00:23:09.480 or by ourselves or whatever. We look back on Christmases 357 00:23:09.519 --> 00:23:12.759 in New Year's. We look back on joy and love 358 00:23:12.839 --> 00:23:16.680 and pain and sorrow. We look back on the people. 359 00:23:17.839 --> 00:23:22.279 We look back on the emotion, on the feelings. So 360 00:23:22.400 --> 00:23:27.160 I want you, I want you to concentrate on what 361 00:23:27.240 --> 00:23:32.880 you have today, not what may be taken from you 362 00:23:32.920 --> 00:23:37.319 in three months, not what you can't afford come February. 363 00:23:38.680 --> 00:23:43.480 I want you to concentrate on today. What do you 364 00:23:43.759 --> 00:23:49.599 have today? I have Ember, She's right in front of me. Hi, 365 00:23:49.680 --> 00:23:53.039 little girl, Hi, dear little honeyboo on to why I'm 366 00:23:53.079 --> 00:23:57.559 sweating like a like Whitney Houston doing a concert. I 367 00:23:57.680 --> 00:24:03.559 have you. Yes, it's a limited audience, but at least 368 00:24:03.559 --> 00:24:06.079 it does give me eight hundred and fifty three dollars 369 00:24:06.160 --> 00:24:08.240 a month, and it does keep me from driving for 370 00:24:08.319 --> 00:24:11.880 door Dasher or God doing god knows what other job, 371 00:24:11.960 --> 00:24:14.559 producing some other podcast where I don't even get to 372 00:24:14.559 --> 00:24:18.559 be on it or whatever. At least I get to 373 00:24:18.559 --> 00:24:21.880 be in my home, in my room here with you 374 00:24:22.000 --> 00:24:27.319 all every day, four days a week. I do have 375 00:24:27.440 --> 00:24:31.200 choices for food. I could buy it or I could 376 00:24:31.240 --> 00:24:35.640 cook it. But at least I have a choice, and 377 00:24:35.759 --> 00:24:41.319 choices are so valuable. I have friends that will love 378 00:24:41.359 --> 00:24:47.759 me on Friday on Monday in January. So I need 379 00:24:47.839 --> 00:24:52.359 you on this Thanksgiving week to purge the evil that 380 00:24:52.519 --> 00:24:59.480 is coming, to purge the worry that is present. Because 381 00:24:59.519 --> 00:25:04.039 the one thing that shouldn't happen is people like Maga 382 00:25:04.279 --> 00:25:11.440 and Donald Trump should not ruin your life. They can 383 00:25:11.559 --> 00:25:14.599 financially and politically, of course they can. They have the power, 384 00:25:16.160 --> 00:25:21.480 but that doesn't ruin who you are. They can't touch that. 385 00:25:23.119 --> 00:25:28.640 They can't touch your love, your kindness. They can't touch 386 00:25:29.599 --> 00:25:35.880 your passion or your hope. Oh they can beat it down. 387 00:25:36.680 --> 00:25:41.119 They can bring gray clouds overhead, but there really is 388 00:25:41.279 --> 00:25:46.480 a sun still shining behind them, and they can't stop that. 389 00:25:48.319 --> 00:25:52.200 Donald Trump is going to die, probably within the next 390 00:25:52.200 --> 00:25:57.000 seven to ten years. He will be gone. You won't 391 00:25:57.039 --> 00:26:03.519 be He's seventy eight, going to be eighty. The presidency 392 00:26:03.559 --> 00:26:08.400 wears you down. He's going to die. So you have 393 00:26:08.480 --> 00:26:11.920 to make sure you live. You have to make sure 394 00:26:11.960 --> 00:26:16.400 that you're in some ways thriving. I have a friend 395 00:26:16.400 --> 00:26:18.720 who's applying for a new job. He really wants it. 396 00:26:18.759 --> 00:26:24.000 I said, go get it, get yours, don't let this 397 00:26:24.440 --> 00:26:28.319 slow you down. Go be who you'd want to be. 398 00:26:30.799 --> 00:26:35.880 And so on this forty eight hours before Thanksgiving, I 399 00:26:35.960 --> 00:26:42.400 want you to refocus. I want you to listen to 400 00:26:42.519 --> 00:26:47.359 great music or a book. I want you to plan 401 00:26:47.559 --> 00:26:50.559
