I didn't like the guy 196 00:09:19.320 --> 00:09:20.840 they chose to be Superman. 197 00:09:21.000 --> 00:09:23.279 That was a terrible I saw the commercial and I said, 198 00:09:23.559 --> 00:09:26.480 this movie is not gonna do shit. Terrible, terrible casting. 199 00:09:27.759 --> 00:09:31.840 Everything nowadays get gets snipped, gets neutered. It's just the 200 00:09:31.840 --> 00:09:35.120 way a lot of studios are. They're being overly protective 201 00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:38.840 of people's feelings, and political correctness is still something that 202 00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:44.080 is out there. Every different type of person is recognized 203 00:09:44.120 --> 00:09:47.360 in writers' rooms, trans people, gay people, black people. 204 00:09:47.480 --> 00:09:49.840 It just it's not the way Hollywood used to be. 205 00:09:50.320 --> 00:09:56.200 Does nobody get nobody sees the ratings of Taylor Sheridan shows. 206 00:09:56.279 --> 00:09:59.840 I mean, I don't understand what the heck happens. It's 207 00:09:59.879 --> 00:10:02.840 like you have a good season of ted Lasso and 208 00:10:02.840 --> 00:10:05.320 then you have to freaking ruin it, loook the whole 209 00:10:05.320 --> 00:10:05.759 thing out. 210 00:10:06.039 --> 00:10:06.519 Yeah. 211 00:10:06.600 --> 00:10:10.919 I started watching this golf series called Stick. 212 00:10:13.200 --> 00:10:13.399 Yeah. 213 00:10:13.919 --> 00:10:20.639 First episode really promising, boom. Second episode, okay, boom. Third 214 00:10:20.639 --> 00:10:22.720 episode He's got to meet a girl. The kid meets 215 00:10:22.720 --> 00:10:27.360 a girl and she's out of freaking control. Woke, crazy, 216 00:10:28.000 --> 00:10:31.240 ruin the whole freaking show. Never watched another minute of it. 217 00:10:32.279 --> 00:10:33.879 While we do that, I don't. 218 00:10:33.919 --> 00:10:39.240 Because I know a couple of showrunners, big guys Michael 219 00:10:39.279 --> 00:10:42.320 Sure who did Boxing Wreck and The Office, and major 220 00:10:42.519 --> 00:10:46.919 major writer showrunner another guy named Dj Nash. I coached 221 00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:51.279 their sons. They told me, you have to have representation 222 00:10:51.399 --> 00:10:55.279 in writers' rooms, even if they contribute nothing. These are 223 00:10:55.360 --> 00:10:58.000 people making big money who just happen to be from 224 00:10:58.039 --> 00:11:02.159 the margins of life, ens, L, G, B t Q, whatever, 225 00:11:02.399 --> 00:11:05.240 from Africa, from and they all have to be a 226 00:11:05.279 --> 00:11:07.799 part of the package of how that show goes out 227 00:11:07.879 --> 00:11:10.679 and how it's looked upon and in Hollywood. 228 00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:13.519 And it's it's not dead yet, it's not dead. It's 229 00:11:13.559 --> 00:11:14.559 gonna happen for a while. 230 00:11:15.679 --> 00:11:19.639 I'm launching a series now where I think they do 231 00:11:19.759 --> 00:11:20.759 it really well. 232 00:11:21.240 --> 00:11:24.279 Like There's it's called Hacks. It's been out for a while. 233 00:11:25.919 --> 00:11:26.679 Hats is great. 234 00:11:26.960 --> 00:11:29.320 But you have one of the lead characters, I don't 235 00:11:29.320 --> 00:11:34.039 know the actress's name, where she's bisexual and that theme 236 00:11:34.159 --> 00:11:38.679 runs through, but not in a lecturing you about your 237 00:11:38.759 --> 00:11:43.600 life way. I mean, she's very likable as a character, 238 00:11:43.840 --> 00:11:48.600 even though seldom do I end up liking, you know, 239 00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:51.360 characters that are are coming from that direction. 240 00:11:51.559 --> 00:11:54.360 But she she's really good whatever her name is. And 241 00:11:54.360 --> 00:11:55.840 then it's Gene Smart. I think it is. 242 00:11:56.039 --> 00:11:58.200 Smart's who's great too. 243 00:11:58.240 --> 00:11:59.360 But that's a great series. 244 00:11:59.480 --> 00:12:03.240 It's a great series. But they're doing this constantly, and 245 00:12:03.799 --> 00:12:06.200 you know, it turns me off. I don't like, you know, 246 00:12:06.559 --> 00:12:10.519 every single movie or show I watch has a. 247 00:12:09.879 --> 00:12:11.519 Angry black female. 248 00:12:11.159 --> 00:12:13.919 As a top cop. It's like, can we stop this. 249 00:12:14.559 --> 00:12:17.320 Every black chair's got to be the tough detective that 250 00:12:17.480 --> 00:12:21.960 shuts the guys up and come on, it's not real life. 251 00:12:22.120 --> 00:12:23.679 But that's where we're. 252 00:12:23.519 --> 00:12:26.720 At right now. I don't know. I don't see a 253 00:12:26.799 --> 00:12:27.360 change in sight. 254 00:12:27.440 --> 00:12:29.200 For a long time, I missed the good old days. 255 00:12:29.200 --> 00:12:32.840 I would have loved a real Superman movie. But he's 256 00:12:32.840 --> 00:12:36.120 not even this guy the actor refused to say in 257 00:12:36.159 --> 00:12:37.840 the American way or something. 258 00:12:38.200 --> 00:12:41.799 Yeah. And also the director, James Gunn, who used to 259 00:12:41.799 --> 00:12:45.480 have pedophile quotes on Twitter years back. It was like 260 00:12:45.799 --> 00:12:47.840 we called him. It was awful the shit he was saying. 261 00:12:48.399 --> 00:12:52.159 He said, the New Superman is about the new immigrants 262 00:12:52.240 --> 00:12:53.320 coming into America. 263 00:12:54.120 --> 00:12:55.080 I can't take it. 264 00:12:55.879 --> 00:12:58.720 I can't take it. That's really what Superman's about. That's 265 00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:02.399 what ruined the movie with ruined Captain America. It ruins 266 00:13:02.399 --> 00:13:05.679 every superhero movie because they go too much politically correct 267 00:13:05.679 --> 00:13:07.120 and it blows apart. 268 00:13:08.000 --> 00:13:11.440 So he he is an illegal immigrant from Krypton. 269 00:13:11.679 --> 00:13:12.799 Is that that's what it is? 270 00:13:13.120 --> 00:13:14.840 I guess that would I guess. 271 00:13:14.960 --> 00:13:19.759 The intergalactic border patrol didn't didn't get him at Earth's 272 00:13:19.759 --> 00:13:21.919 atmosphere and and block them out. 273 00:13:23.000 --> 00:13:25.000 But I'll tell you is I tell you speaking of ice. 274 00:13:25.840 --> 00:13:27.440 I know you guys don't see it as often as 275 00:13:27.480 --> 00:13:30.679 I do here, but it's dip dick cracking down in 276 00:13:30.840 --> 00:13:31.039 l A. 277 00:13:31.440 --> 00:13:32.759 It's unbelievable. 278 00:13:33.320 --> 00:13:36.600 Well, I saw that craziness with your lovely Mayor in 279 00:13:36.639 --> 00:13:37.240 the middle of. 280 00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:37.879 It, and. 281 00:13:40.799 --> 00:13:43.480 It was bound bound to happen with all the crazy 282 00:13:43.559 --> 00:13:48.360 rhetoric that's out there. But anyway, well, let's uh, let's 283 00:13:48.360 --> 00:13:51.600 look at my topics for for this week and see 284 00:13:51.600 --> 00:13:55.279 if there's some fun there. Let's go to the relationship 285 00:13:55.360 --> 00:13:58.919 that I think has probably been the top relationship of 286 00:13:59.000 --> 00:14:03.000 the twenty twenty four twenty twenty five time period, which 287 00:14:03.039 --> 00:14:09.639 is the bromance turned non romance between Elon Musk and 288 00:14:09.679 --> 00:14:13.480 Donald Trump, the one time co presidents, as I still 289 00:14:13.519 --> 00:14:18.679 love to call them. It's gone to a different place. So, 290 00:14:19.279 --> 00:14:22.200 you know, Elon's been really critical of the Big Beautiful 291 00:14:22.279 --> 00:14:23.440 Bill since the onset. 292 00:14:23.519 --> 00:14:24.279 I mean he was. 293 00:14:24.679 --> 00:14:26.600 It's not like there was a period where he was 294 00:14:27.080 --> 00:14:29.799 heavily supportive of it, but he's been critical. 295 00:14:30.000 --> 00:14:32.639 But he ratcheted up that criticism. 296 00:14:33.879 --> 00:14:36.600 As we sort of got to that July fourth deadline 297 00:14:36.639 --> 00:14:40.879 that that Trump had put out there, and he's now 298 00:14:40.960 --> 00:14:44.200 saying that he's going to create a third political party, 299 00:14:44.679 --> 00:14:45.799 the America Party. 300 00:14:46.360 --> 00:14:47.039 Oh god. 301 00:14:47.200 --> 00:14:50.720 So the guy who once declared a love for Trump 302 00:14:50.879 --> 00:14:55.120 as deep as quote one heterosexual man can have for 303 00:14:55.159 --> 00:14:59.919 another has lost that loving feeling in a very deep way. 304 00:15:00.120 --> 00:15:03.159 He's now claiming that the policies of Trump will lead 305 00:15:03.240 --> 00:15:05.200 the country to bankruptcy. 306 00:15:06.480 --> 00:15:10.279 And then Trump put out I don't know. 307 00:15:10.279 --> 00:15:13.320 It's like an eight hundred word post on Truth's social 308 00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:15.679 where I just read a little bit of it. I'm 309 00:15:15.720 --> 00:15:19.120 sad to watch Elon go completely quote off the rails, 310 00:15:19.559 --> 00:15:23.080 essentially becoming an all caps train wreck over the past 311 00:15:23.120 --> 00:15:26.360 five weeks. He even wants to start a third political party, 312 00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:29.399 despite the fact that they have never succeeded in the US. 313 00:15:29.919 --> 00:15:32.240 The one thing third parties are good for is the 314 00:15:32.279 --> 00:15:37.240 creation of complete and total capitalized disruption and chaos, and 315 00:15:37.279 --> 00:15:39.639 we have enough of that with the radical left Democrats 316 00:15:39.639 --> 00:15:41.399 who have lost their confidence. 317 00:15:40.960 --> 00:15:41.720 In their minds. 318 00:15:42.039 --> 00:15:44.600 Republicans, on the other hand, are a smooth running machine 319 00:15:44.840 --> 00:15:46.960 that just passed the biggest bill of its kind and 320 00:15:46.960 --> 00:15:49.559 the history of our country. It's a great bill, but 321 00:15:49.679 --> 00:15:54.440 unfortunately for Elon it eliminates the ridiculous electric vehicle mandate. 322 00:15:54.519 --> 00:16:01.360 So he's putting Elon's position on the on the big 323 00:16:01.399 --> 00:16:06.159 beautiful bill, on the electric vehicle mandates, and that's really 324 00:16:06.399 --> 00:16:09.679 not what has set. 325 00:16:09.519 --> 00:16:12.480 Helon off in the direction he's gone in. 326 00:16:12.600 --> 00:16:17.600 But any thoughts on the bromance gone bad, guys, third party. 327 00:16:18.240 --> 00:16:20.679 I'm gonna let Arena do this, But I want to 328 00:16:20.720 --> 00:16:21.759 say one thing real quick. 329 00:16:21.879 --> 00:16:24.440 I did predict months ago there was going to be 330 00:16:24.519 --> 00:16:26.960 a fight between these two and they wouldn't get along anymore. 331 00:16:27.240 --> 00:16:29.759 I know Trump too well, it's just the way he 332 00:16:29.840 --> 00:16:32.559 is and Elon he did kind of walk his statements 333 00:16:32.600 --> 00:16:34.559 back a couple of weeks ago, and now this new 334 00:16:34.679 --> 00:16:36.039 bullshit with a third party. 335 00:16:36.879 --> 00:16:37.840 I learned a lesson. 336 00:16:38.039 --> 00:16:41.039 You can't heckle a comic when he's on stage with 337 00:16:41.080 --> 00:16:44.480 the microphone because they always win. In the same way, 338 00:16:44.519 --> 00:16:48.240 you can't keep heckling the president who leads the free world. 339 00:16:48.559 --> 00:16:51.159 You're not going to beat Trump right now where he's at. 340 00:16:51.559 --> 00:16:55.279 So Elon is becoming a cranky baby. But Trump's going 341 00:16:55.360 --> 00:16:58.080 to win this war. But Arena, you tell me what 342 00:16:58.159 --> 00:17:00.840 you think about the relationship finished two men. 343 00:17:02.519 --> 00:17:05.960 You know I told you before about creating an image 344 00:17:06.000 --> 00:17:09.240 of the person after the first impression, you probably have 345 00:17:09.319 --> 00:17:12.359 seen a lot of couples when people meet and they say, Wow, 346 00:17:12.400 --> 00:17:15.960 she's exactly like me. She's my best friend, she's my past. See, 347 00:17:15.960 --> 00:17:18.400 we have so much in comma and after these two 348 00:17:18.480 --> 00:17:21.279 we just never talk again and hit each other great classics. 349 00:17:21.680 --> 00:17:25.000 So here kind of that type of thing, because don't 350 00:17:25.039 --> 00:17:28.160 become illusional about persons, so you don't have to become 351 00:17:28.319 --> 00:17:31.880 delusional afterwards. It was a very quick merriage. I know 352 00:17:31.960 --> 00:17:35.599 it should have happened so Trump would have won, and 353 00:17:35.680 --> 00:17:38.599 he did, and it was very empowering for him to 354 00:17:38.640 --> 00:17:41.839 get Illn Musk on his side. And I'm not would 355 00:17:41.880 --> 00:17:45.839 say who is right who's wrong, Like I'm nobody. I'm 356 00:17:45.839 --> 00:17:48.839 not in financial or political field to judge and none 357 00:17:48.839 --> 00:17:53.200 of those guys. But I feel like a little fortune 358 00:17:53.240 --> 00:17:56.000 teller because as Uaj said that it's going to be 359 00:17:56.039 --> 00:17:58.920 a fight one day in disagreement, I've said a couple 360 00:17:59.000 --> 00:18:02.559 of podcasts ago or maybe the last one that's going 361 00:18:02.640 --> 00:18:06.039 to be a new party, Elon Musk will try to 362 00:18:06.079 --> 00:18:08.960 do it. And now he is doing that. And I 363 00:18:09.039 --> 00:18:12.960 have to tell you, as far as I see American people, 364 00:18:13.400 --> 00:18:18.000 they are very dedicated and determined to everything what have 365 00:18:18.119 --> 00:18:23.200 been created for centuries, whether it rituals, I don't know, 366 00:18:23.359 --> 00:18:28.880 tradition or food. They're very consistent, consistent, excuse me about 367 00:18:28.920 --> 00:18:32.720 their choices. So I have no idea if the third 368 00:18:32.839 --> 00:18:37.640 party would survive in this country. But I do believe 369 00:18:38.000 --> 00:18:41.680 that American needed a little change. I always have been 370 00:18:41.799 --> 00:18:47.400 speaking about the independent about something. I'm independent. I think 371 00:18:47.480 --> 00:18:49.799 Mike you did that. You said a couple of times 372 00:18:49.839 --> 00:18:54.000 I'm independent. That I would probably call myself closer to 373 00:18:54.039 --> 00:18:57.839 Republicans one hundred percent, like because I respect a lot 374 00:18:57.880 --> 00:18:59.640 of a lot of a lot of things about their 375 00:19:00.160 --> 00:19:03.319 choice making. But there are a couple of things that 376 00:19:03.519 --> 00:19:06.279 I have my own opinion about that. But they're still 377 00:19:06.319 --> 00:19:09.440 in process, so maybe they will get there. So that's 378 00:19:09.480 --> 00:19:12.599 why I would say that I'm independent, much closer to 379 00:19:12.640 --> 00:19:15.200 Republicans if I had a choice to vote. But there 380 00:19:15.240 --> 00:19:18.240 is no such a party as independent. You can feel independent, 381 00:19:18.319 --> 00:19:21.640 but you can vote for that correct. It's you go 382 00:19:21.799 --> 00:19:24.519 left or you go right, and truth is always in 383 00:19:24.559 --> 00:19:26.880 the middle. We know it in life. So I have 384 00:19:26.960 --> 00:19:29.839 no idea what Elan Musk will be doing right now. 385 00:19:30.319 --> 00:19:33.720 I would say one thing Trump, whatever he is doing 386 00:19:34.640 --> 00:19:37.839 with any country of the world, with every inside and 387 00:19:37.920 --> 00:19:42.559 outside out action. It's always for the benefit of American 388 00:19:42.720 --> 00:19:48.000 American people. Meanwhile, Ilan Musk has a globe. He's already 389 00:19:48.039 --> 00:19:53.079 traveling to Mars. He's already building this train for two 390 00:19:53.119 --> 00:19:56.599 hours to get to London or even less. So he 391 00:19:57.000 --> 00:20:00.359 is kind of president of the globe because the That's 392 00:20:00.400 --> 00:20:02.759 why I think they had a disagreement of this big, 393 00:20:02.799 --> 00:20:06.880 beautiful bill, because they are too strong personalities. Plus Trump 394 00:20:07.119 --> 00:20:10.920 was thinking about America and cut off expenses and taxes 395 00:20:10.960 --> 00:20:13.720 and so on. Elon Musk was thinking about all to 396 00:20:13.880 --> 00:20:17.759 debt of United States, which all countries have. So I 397 00:20:17.759 --> 00:20:22.680 think he's thinking way too globally to represent just America. 398 00:20:22.759 --> 00:20:26.839 He should go on very international level. I don't know, 399 00:20:26.920 --> 00:20:30.119 like he lives here. So that's why he's taking care 400 00:20:30.119 --> 00:20:32.640 of America in his own way, the way he thinks 401 00:20:32.640 --> 00:20:35.200
