Starting point is 00:00:00 MAGA! Nail polish coming off. Al got like three more weeks of nail polish. I love it. In Trump's America, nail polish is done. What are the new pronouns, Akash? Tell them the new pronouns. MA slash GA.
Starting point is 00:00:12 MAGA. ****. That word is back. That word is back. Everything's back. When we walked in, Delvin was singing, MAGA, Nugilla MAGA, Nugilla MAGA, Nugilla MAGA, NAGILA MAGA, NAGILA MAGA, NAGILA MAGA. Listen, we've been very fair and unbiased
Starting point is 00:00:31 about this election, unlike some of us. Alex has been riding Kamala's fucking roti for the last three months. That's good. Okay, that's an Indian thing. Yeah, that was good. And Doug, why don't you just stand directly in front of all the big cameras.
Starting point is 00:00:46 More in the way? Why don't you just put the chablis down. I'll put it down. Oh, we know. We know you got Eve first. We know you got Eve first. What a surprise. Doug, come somewhere he's not welcome and won't leave.
Starting point is 00:00:57 It did. They get kicked out. It's 110. We call you the little hats and you're wearing the biggest hat possible. Why are you doing that? OK, OK, in all seriousness, I want to have a conversation about wearing your son, Yamaka, bro.
Starting point is 00:01:09 What? Send his back. It's his lucky charm. OK, OK. But in all seriousness, guys, let's have a real conversation. Alex, what are you feeling? You know, what's going on in your mind? You know, how are you dealing with the information? Yeah, it's a great day. You know, I woke up to racist the information? Nah, it's a great day.
Starting point is 00:01:25 You know, I woke up to racist text messages and DMs and stuff. A lot of S's in that word for you, right? Yeah, it was. What'd they say? And text... who racist text messaging? Yeah! That's bold. Yeah, just DMs, just DMs.
Starting point is 00:01:35 Yeah, come on. Text messages with the victim ideology. Right? Nah, but my group chat of all black guys, they gotta hit me with racist text messages. So they happy, bro. They're happy. Oh, they are. Come on. I'm Brent the Bagger.
Starting point is 00:01:49 I shouldn't have gone to you first. I knew you were gonna bring down the mood. Mark, tell me what the family celebration was like. What was the group chat doing? Group chats divided. Group chats divided. Why? Some people were like, hell yeah, Trump's president, let's fucking go. The other half is like the corporations have taken over and Satan is now in charge. Because ultimately all politicians serve Satan, okay? So there's no political discourse about Satan.
Starting point is 00:02:09 Yo, Marshmallow is the shit. We should have had her on today. That would have been the best. Yeah. And just watch her just laser beam dove for two hours on the podcast. Staged straight into his soul. You guys knew who was gonna win?
Starting point is 00:02:21 Del would convert. Del would absolutely convert. Okay, what do you feeling Akash? You know, I kind of smugly satisfied. Like this is what you all get. You all didn't want to come on flagrant. You know what they told us? It was too big of a risk. It was too big of a risk for Kamala to come on.
Starting point is 00:02:36 Okay, you fucking loser. You know what I mean? It's kind of a risk in not doing any big podcasts. Bro, you know what? We told the little Chinese man once. He was running was running for mayor of New York City. Yeah. We say, yo, if you want to be mayor,
Starting point is 00:02:52 you got to come on Flavorant. The only way that you could be mayor of New York City is if you come on Flavorant. Yep. Said it was too big of a risk. And now look at him. Where is he? Selling insurance. Anybody heard his name for five years?
Starting point is 00:03:03 Selling insurance in Wisconsin. He has a nice podcast. Does he? That records out of WJF Media. Oh my God. With all due respect, he's great. He's absolutely amazing. Are you sure it's him?
Starting point is 00:03:13 It is over in Canal Street. So I don't want to. I just want to make sure you're not being racist right now. No, I'm not getting paid rent. He delivered my sushi. It's weird. It's weird that he collects rent from me at the end of the month. That is a peculiar relationship.
Starting point is 00:03:28 Now, yeah, just a wild time. It's just a wild time. Okay, let's get into a lot of different conversations. Well, how are things in your household? Oh, I didn't tell y'all. Maybe I did tell y'all. I tried to pull Larry David yesterday. Because you know me, the idea of going to vote is just seems like something
Starting point is 00:03:45 I've heard oh my god, then my address was in a different place And I was like I'm not going all the way up to that polling thing so my wife five blocks away No, no, I was on my 58th. Oh Because business manager put the address like a whole thing. Whatever anyway, so I asked my wife I'm like yo, who you voting for she goes. I'm voting for Kamala You know like we have a daughter and I'm worried about her reproductive rights. Let's go. And I was like, that's a good ass point.
Starting point is 00:04:08 Yeah, let's go. That's a good ass point. Yeah. Right? And then I also, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. Women, smart women. Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. I also calculated, I was like,
Starting point is 00:04:18 probably got another couple elections before the reproductive rights are gonna kick in. I think we can fix that shit up. I think we got about two or three more before we're gonna meet one of them. Two or three? Come on! About five or six, hopefully. No, you're right. Why am I even saying it?
Starting point is 00:04:34 Eight to twelve is crazy! It was wild. How many years I think Trump is gonna be there? Forever! You heard that, Shifty? MAGA. Oh yeah, that's right. There's no more elections. Shifty MAGA.
Starting point is 00:04:48 Yeah, we never have to vote again. How convenient is that? That is nice. Anyway, so I asked my wife, I'm like, you know, who are you voting for? She goes, Kamala. And I'm like, all right, look, I want to do a Larry David with you. So I'm going to vote Trump, you're going to vote Kamala. If neither of us vote, then we did vote.
Starting point is 00:05:05 Yeah. Right? Because they cancel each other out. This is Larry David, Curb Your Enthusiasm episode. She goes, all right, that kind of makes sense. Then hits me up midway through the day, I went and voted. I said, this motherfucker. I said, this motherfucker is trying to get one over on me. I rolled right to the closest precinct.
Starting point is 00:05:22 I said, yo, can I vote here even though I'm not signed up? And they were like, yeah, this is America. You don't even need an ID. You don't even need to speak English. You can walk in here with a Venezuelan flag and a gun and you can vote. So I walked in there and they were like, you can sign an affidavit or some other bullshit.
Starting point is 00:05:35 And I just voted. Hell yeah. Evened it out. They take them, just throw them right out. They're trying to do extra work. Thank you. All right, so let's get into this discussion real quick. What do you think the real decision was that was made by the American public?
Starting point is 00:05:52 Economy. You think it was a kind of, in my estimation, this is what I think it was a referendum on liberal politics and leftist politics. I don't think it was Trump populism. I think a lot of people are going, this is Trump is this amazing populist and he was just so engaging and everybody just fucking loved him. No, I actually think in the same way that people voted anti-Trump, let's say in 2020, I think people were voting anti-democratic leadership in 2024. And I think that's evident across the board. I mean, you saw your DA in
Starting point is 00:06:26 California get knocked down. The Republicans flipped the Senate. The voter turnout is much higher. They win every, does he win every swing state? Yeah, I don't know if she got a single one, dude. So like, to me, it's a rejection of the current state of liberal politics and the fact that those people felt concerns that were not met by Democrats on the campaign trail. They had no real answer for the border. They just gaslit people about the border. They had no real answer for the economy.
Starting point is 00:06:56 They had no real answer for anything. So I think it was one, a rejection of liberal politics, and then two, just like a truly like once in a lifetime awful candidate. I don't think that you can, I don't think that you can, what is it, discredit? Discredit or, not discredit, but discount. I don't think you can discount that.
Starting point is 00:07:16 Like you need to have a star. Do you know what I mean? Like when I saw Obama on the campaign trail, I was like, holy shit, this guy's a fucking superstar. And then you see her like flopping around like a fish on a boat, it was just brutal. So I think it was a rejection of leftist policies and leftist politics along with just a truly horrible camp.
Starting point is 00:07:39 The other part of the politics I think that people were fed up with was just the games Democrats play in the guise of Democracy and like we're the ones who care about the people with nobody elected Kamala Just like nobody wanted Hillary in 2016 you just you're so here to have a woman president or whatever it is to whatever your reasoning Is this is the corporate person fuck actual democracy in action during the primaries? Let's put in the candidate we want and then I think it's one of the worst campaigns I think she could be a good candidate. Maybe the worst campaign I've ever seen.
Starting point is 00:08:07 Is legacy media done? Legacy media is done. So I have theories on this. I think okay, because you gotta look at it two ways. Is legacy media done or was Kamala so bad that even with the influence of legacy media, they couldn't get it over the hump. For example, if Michelle was running, or if Barack was running with legacy media in its current state,
Starting point is 00:08:30 I think they might be able to still get it over the, it's a maybe. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I don't think legacy media is completely done. But I do think that there is something very interesting that happened here. Legacy media still gets the eyeballs, it still gets the views views and it still has cultural
Starting point is 00:08:46 influence. Up until election night, we all thought that it was a close race. That's legacy media. That is constantly pushing narratives that not only is it close, she might be ahead. Iowa's going to her. She's going to flip all the states. It's going to be an absolute mauling. Right? That is legacy media pushing a narrative and people believing said narrative, right? So, I mean, if you look at all the pollsters, they had her winning day off. Like outside of like polymarket,
Starting point is 00:09:12 which I don't even know if you can credit because it's just dudes gambling. It's like there's no actual women represented. That's what I was also like, women are gambling. Yeah. So, I look at this, I look at a legacy media and I'm like, okay, now here's the difference. And I'm not just saying this because we're podcasters, but Trump went on podcasts, did
Starting point is 00:09:35 these long interviews, commonly did some podcasts too. But most of them were short, very contrived interviews. It was very controlled. It was things edited out. It wasn't exactly the free form speech that we're kind of used to. Also specifically targeted to one demographic. Like you could tell in the last month that the campaign was like, we want black people to come out and vote. We really aren't trying to reach out to anybody else. Yeah. Which is a huge, I think, problem for them because they just got lower all around turnout.
Starting point is 00:10:05 And maybe if they spoke to more people, then more people could have been inspired. But here's the thing that happens. One thing that podcasting has done that's been really effective is built community and connection. Right? Like, if you look at the biggest touring stand-up comedians in the world, right? They all have podcasts where they've built this amazing community and connection. We talk to people every single week.
Starting point is 00:10:28 They know intimate details about our life. To me, what that's proven is that just because people are famous doesn't mean you go out. Connection is actually what makes people go out. There are comics on SNL that I don't know if they could sell out a weekend of shows at a comedy club. They're on the biggest comedy platform in the world. And then there are comics who have podcasts
Starting point is 00:10:50 that can sell at arenas. To me, the difference between new media and legacy media is connection. The purpose of this podcast is to get people to invest in our lives and then be along for that journey. Be it we go do standup shows, we go do some sort of live tour, some live activation, just be part of our lives. The purpose of legacy media is to sell depression pills.
Starting point is 00:11:14 That is the purpose of the show. Yeah. They're creating the show so that they can sell those depression pills. Yeah. That's not to say we don't have ads. Of course we have ads. We didn't originally for months, a year when we started this, the purpose of this was to build a community and a connection. And I think that fatal flaw, her not going onto
Starting point is 00:11:33 these podcasts is that people weren't able to make that connection. And just as people come out to shows because they build that connection with us here, they came out to vote because he built that connection. Yeah. People leave the house. When they didn't have to leave the house to vote, they voted for Biden. They mailed in in. When they had to leave the house to go to a standup show or leave the house to vote, you better fucking,
Starting point is 00:11:55 we talk about this all the time, it's an investment. Putting on fucking clothes, standing in line for a couple hours. And we only mailed it in because we were locked inside for six months. We had nothing else to do. For sure. I'm not mailing in if I can go outside and do things.
Starting point is 00:12:05 Sure, sure. Because we could have mailed in this time, but we're not. I think the, when I say legacy media is done, I mean, they can still set a narrative, people still watch it. Their influences, them being the most influential force in the world is done. I've, yeah, yeah. I don't know if, I wouldn't say done. I would just say that like, they don't have the connectivity.
Starting point is 00:12:21 Sure. And the great disruption with new media is the connectivity. Yeah. And before, and the reason why I create the analogy with comics is like there before there were comics that could sell out shows by being in a commercial. Like they're in a commercial for Pepsi and they could sell out a week of shows just because there are so few famous people. Now everybody is gone viral. Yeah. What type of connection do you have with your audience? I think legacy media just hits a different crop of voters. It's like with the advent of TikTok, is Facebook done?
Starting point is 00:12:51 It's like, well, I think Facebook just kind of hits a different group of people in a different age bracket and a different geography. And I think legacy media effectively does the same thing. I think younger people are probably seeking connection more so, and that community, specifically digitally, is probably more valuable to younger people. Whereas, I don't know, our parents are not listening to podcasts,
Starting point is 00:13:06 but they'll probably tune in to CNN or Fox or whatever, and they'll watch that and then get their information based off that. So I think mobilizing young people podcasts is the way to go. And then as far as getting older people, I think you have to, I think you now are in a position where it's not pick one or the other,
Starting point is 00:13:20 but you have to play both. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And she chose not to play one. Unbelievable. Well, she played it in a specific way that I think hurt her negatively. This is so dumb. Like Call Her Daddy, I don't think you can discount. Breakfast Club, I don't think you can discount.
Starting point is 00:13:35 But I think in order to get all of them, you need to do all of them. Like, they only did... Outside of Call Her Daddy, it felt like they only did Black Podcasts. And to me, if I'm an American voter, it's I'm almost like insulted by it. I'm like, hey, we're here too. Like I know we don't live in fucking Wisconsin or Pennsylvania, but we also care about what you're going to do
Starting point is 00:13:55 for us. And if you're just talking about these things the month before the election, we might feel like you don't give a fuck about what's going on for us. The way I'm wired, if I'm a black voter, I'm sorry to interrupt, if I'm a black voter, I started to feel a little insulted. You feel pandered to? Yeah, like what do you do every, all you ever do is you don't give a fuck about what's going on for us. The way I'm wired, if I'm a black voter, I'm sorry, if I'm a black voter, I start to feel a little insulted. You feel pandered to? Yeah, like what do you do every, all you ever do is you're gonna go have a fucking town hall, you're gonna go do all the smoking,
Starting point is 00:14:12 those are great platforms, but like that's all you're gonna do is just sit here and talk to me like, this is the liberal thing where it's like, yo, you're not equal. Yeah. You're a little less than us, so let's just pander to you like you're a fucking moron,
Starting point is 00:14:23 and you'll buy into it because you're so fucking stupid and helpless as a minority. Fuck you. Suck my dick. Talk to America and I'll listen and I'll choose who I want. Sorry, what were you going to say? I think part of the reason Obama got elected was because he got a lot of the black people, the black vote out to actually vote. A large percentage of the black community do not go out and vote.
Starting point is 00:14:45 So I think that was part of the strategy of targeting a particular group to try to get them as happy and energized to get out to actually vote like Obama did. I think using podcasts was a great strategy on both sides. This was the first election run that they ever did that. So it was like, it was hit or miss. Let's say Trump loses, people would have been like, ah, he wasted all that time going on podcasts
Starting point is 00:15:07 instead of just going out and doing rap, just talking to the people. No, no, no, no. People could have said that. What do you think if Trump lost? If he lost. I'll get to that. We'll go.
Starting point is 00:15:15 And so it's like, Obama's amazing strategy was utilizing social media during his run. And that was never seen before. So I think it was just the fact that they try new things and some work, some didn't and clearly Trump connected with people better than come on. So if I can respond to that, sorry, I think this is, if you watch sports, this is what always happens. If a team goes for it on fourth down and they make it, coach is a genius.
Starting point is 00:15:37 If they don't, he's an idiot. It always hindsight influences everything. I think even if Trump lost personally, I would have been like, no, he lost because of January 6th. He lost because of XYZ, all these other things that happened outside of the podcast world. If you just look at raw numbers of Joe Rogan and say, oh, 60 million views on YouTube alone for a guy who's still bigger on audio, just hitting that raw number of people. If you're like, no, you know, it's going to win me the election. Let's go do a black podcast that gets one 100th of that. Sean Amain said to me, the number one podcast with black listenership and viewership in the world is Joe Rogan.
Starting point is 00:16:14 So you chose not to go on the biggest podcast for black people in the world. Like that is a huge choice. And while doing that, you could have also hit all these other people as well. To me, the strategy is they weren't ready for the pushback and they wanted to go on platforms that were gonna be more comfortable, you know, with their control and their hands.
Starting point is 00:16:36 Life tour, last few dates, Reno, we had a second show. San Jose, Portland, you guys are all sold out. Thank you so much. New York City, I love y'all, man. All four shows sold out. And then Honolulu, that is the final day go grab those tickets Honolulu some seats left for that Those are the last shows of the life tour. We love y'all. We appreciate y'all. We'll see you out there the Andrew shows calm piece Also guys shows real quick. First of all, London. I'm coming through next week. Maybe we do a little pop-up
Starting point is 00:16:58 Maybe we don't I don't know. I'm gonna be giving a speech at Oxford who would have fucking thought anyway, November 22nd and 23rd I'm gonna be in Rochester at the Carlson. December 4th, I told you guys these tickets were gonna sell out. We're almost sold out for my shows at Governors in Levittown. I am a hero on Long Island now. Before, they didn't like me.
Starting point is 00:17:15 Now, they love me. I wonder why. Maybe because I got their president elected. Anyway, December 6th and 7th, I'm gonna be in Albany, New York. I think those are my last dates for the year, but get those tickets, and we're gonna start announcing 2025 dates soon.
Starting point is 00:17:26 AkashSingh.com, let's get back to the show. Potsdown PA, this Friday, November 8th, I'm gonna be at Soul Joles, and then- Do it again without looking at your phone. I just had to double check. It's November 8th. November 8th. It's November, here, let me just do you a favor.
Starting point is 00:17:38 But then, Stanford, Connecticut. Do it again, do it again, let's do it again. Potsdown PA, this Friday, November 8th, I'm gonna be at Soul Joles, this Wednesday, November 8th, I'm gonna be at Soul Joles, this Wednesday, Stanford, Connecticut, I'm gonna be at New York Comedy Club, I can't wait to see you guys there. Is that it, is that all we got?
Starting point is 00:17:52 World's Fastest Ad-Read. You didn't say New York Comedy Club. This could be your head right there, ladies. You didn't say Stanford, Connecticut. I wanna make it fast, that way people go. No, but they're gonna think that it's New York Comedy Club. This ladies, right here, your face. No, Stanford, Connecticut, New York Comedy Club.
Starting point is 00:18:03 Your face. One more time. Right here, or guys. No, Stanford, Connecticut, New York Comic Club. Your face. One more time. Right here. Or guys. If it's too long, if you wanna skip. Hypotheticalistic comma does go on. Rogan goes on Lex, goes on Theo.
Starting point is 00:18:13 Does she win? I don't think so. I think fundamentally the strategy of her campaign was flawed from the get-go, and I think Biden largely like cabashed her odds by just pulling out so late. That like, even if she had done these things, I think Biden largely like caboshed her odds by just pulling out so late. Yes.
Starting point is 00:18:27 Then like even if she had done these things, I think it absolutely would have helped, but I don't think it would have won her the election. Yeah, I think it would have won her the election if she was good. Well, yeah. And the reality is like, we'll never know if she was good because we were never given her. Right. And the most real you've ever seen her is when she and Charlemagne were sitting down
Starting point is 00:18:43 and I was like, Charlemagne, don't have any callers calling in. Don't. I said, I'm brilliant. I was like, you just need to talk to this woman for three fucking hours. That is the closest that we've seen her to being a real person and not just a politician. Talk to her. That is the way that American can get to know her. America doesn't know her.
Starting point is 00:19:02 They've seen her flip flop on every single issue, which is okay. I'm okay if politics doesn't change their mind. I'm totally okay with that. But give me an explanation as to why. They've seen her gaslight about the border, haven't answered a single fucking question about the border correctly, or with any amount of confidence
Starting point is 00:19:17 that made the American people believe that they were gonna do something different. Like there are real issues that they didn't touch on. And I feel like Charlemagne could be the unbiased But I think he could have been the guy to actually push her push her to answer those questions But like Mark said I think Biden dropping out so late fucked her up right on you. She didn't have enough time to primary
Starting point is 00:19:38 I don't think if she had Biden doesn't run again and they have a primary she don't win the primary bro Let's we just got a call it what it is. She sucks. Do you think it would have been different? Do you think it would have been different? I don't think she's good. If she had more time to prepare for this run? No, no, I truly don't. I disagree.
Starting point is 00:19:52 I truly don't. Here's the reality. Because the things you're complaining about is like, oh, hey, we didn't hear enough from her. No, no, no. Hey, if you had more time to hear enough from her. The horse ain't fast. That's all it is.
Starting point is 00:20:01 It's like the horse ain't fast. It's like a, she's not a Ferrari, bro. No, no, I'm not disagreeing with that when I'm going on so so it's like So far what we saw she had plenty of opportunities to win us over It's not like she didn't have every single podcast that you could have gone It's not like she she didn't go on one podcast that people said yeah You gotta listen to this shit is kind of fire No matter what she went on people were like this shit sucks
Starting point is 00:20:22 Right the only thing that she did that was pretty good was the Brent Beyer thing on Fox. I think the Call of Duty. I like the Call of Duty to be honest. I thought, in a moment, I wasn't like completely floored or whatever, but there were moments where I was like, that was really thoughtful and it was a unique way of answering that question that didn't sound
Starting point is 00:20:39 like a robot was answering it. And that was, maybe I was looking for very little, I saw that. To your point, I would say not having time, you had ample opportunity to do Joe Rogan and said oh You need to come to me and I only give you an hour and then these fucking liberal idiots were like why won't Joe do that? Joe is Oprah this day and age if George W Bush is running in 2000 and says I want to be president Oprah But I'm not coming to Chicago. It was a cop on to Texas and I give you 20 minutes
Starting point is 00:21:02 It was a cop. It says suck my dick motherfucker. give you 20 minutes. It was a cop out. Oprah says, suck my dick, motherfucker, I'm not doing that. It was a cop out. And we all got it. Joe got it. You want to be president, don't talk about 90 days, you needed a day, three hours, go to Rogan. You were campaigning right next door. Go to Rogan.
Starting point is 00:21:16 It's fine, it's fine, it's fine. I hear what you're saying, bro, but it's still something new. We can't cop, we can't cop, please. Well, that's what people are going to do because they don't want to acknowledge what just happened, they don't want to acknowledge the reality. There's gonna be some people that I think will move on from this and be like, hey, the Democratic Party did not address
Starting point is 00:21:32 the needs of the people. That's why the people overwhelmingly rejected them. And hopefully the people that are thinking that are the people in control of the Democratic Party because I don't think anything would make us happier. Think about this right now. Everybody's looking at Trump, right? As if he's like this big bad Republican. Who is surrounding Trump right now? Tell me his team. Elon. Democrat. RFK is a, was a lifelong Democrat. Who else?
Starting point is 00:21:57 Tulsi. Democrat. Who else? Craig. Vivek? Democrat? Who else? I don't know if Vivek was a Democrat, but Greg Paul. I thought he was a lifelong Democrat. Not that I know of. Okay, but either way, my point is- Your point stands. It's a great point. And who has got Kamala's back?
Starting point is 00:22:13 Who is Cheney? Who is Cheney? Oh my God. Say, get the fuck out of here. My point is, you have- Obama. Yeah, Obama and Michelle. I mean, Obama and Michelle is a different thing.
Starting point is 00:22:25 They are the institution of the Democratic Party. Divek did vote for Obama, he admitted. He was a libertarian, but. The point that I'm trying to make is that, like, she is the representative of the institution and the institution wasn't meeting the demands of the people. I mean, the Democrats haven't won an election in the last 20 years that wasn't Obama or Obama's VP. Think about that. Like we're really just voting for Obama and she was too derivative. That's how much we love Obama. We're like, if you're close enough
Starting point is 00:22:55 to Obama, we'll vote for you. Hillary, you weren't close enough. Matter of fact, I think you went after him a little bit. So we remember that shit. So I just don't think Democrats met the people. And the reality is those people that are surrounding Trump right now are these homeless Democrats, these lifelong Democrats, like many of us, lifelong Democrats that feel like the party has left us. Those are the people. I mean, look at it. It's like a perfect metaphor for what's happening right now in America. Those people right there going, all right, I'm going to ride with this guy because he at least sees what's happening and he sees that the left has gone too far. And you know what?
Starting point is 00:23:31 They went there and they were called pariahs, they're called assholes, they're called every name under the book. And the rest of America, the majority went. Now we feel that way too. Yeah. The Dick Cheney and Liz Cheney endorsement, like the fact that she touted it was such a strategic error. Nuclear bomb.
Starting point is 00:23:45 I don't understand why. The name Cheney, I mean, is, I don't know if there's a worse name in politics. I saw an interesting tweet. When he left as VP, he had like a 16% approval rating, which is the same as Nixon. And this would be the equivalent of like Clinton running being like, oh, I got Nixon's endorsement guys.
Starting point is 00:24:02 You should vote for me. It's like one leg. It's crazy. And then Dave Smith posted a clip and this is just, again, legacy got Nixon's endorsement guys. You should vote for me. It's like, it's crazy. And then Dave Smith posted a clip, and this is just again, legacy media and like us not believing it, a clip of Whoopi saying to Liz Cheney on the view, you should be attorney general. I just think you're awesome.
Starting point is 00:24:15 And we're like, what the fuck is, people are seeing like, this is insane, right? Watching legacy media say Liz Cheney should, hey, we'll put another Cheney in a high position because we trust him. Yeah. So let's look back at this. This is a kind of interesting thing.
Starting point is 00:24:28 Obviously, we witnessed something pretty profound that's happened. Whether you like it or not, I hope we're all in this position right now where we want it to work out. Yeah. You know, there was a great moment when Chappelle was doing SNL. Yeah. I think after Trump won the first time. Yes. And he was like, I am rooting for you and I hope it works out.
Starting point is 00:24:48 And it was this beautiful moment. Yeah. I hope you give us the same chance I'm giving you. Yeah. Awesome. It was beautiful. It was like, it was really, it was so mature. Yeah. It's so easy to be like angry and come up with excuses and all this. None of that's going to stop what's going on. Right now we gotta hope that the best years of America are in front of us. And I hope that this is the golden age, once again, of America. Like I don't think anything would make Americans happier
Starting point is 00:25:16 if this wasn't the next golden age that we walked right into. Right now, coming up into this election, I think we can all agree that we're in an all-time low confidence in the institutions in America Right, we didn't know lifetime for sure. I think that's why she lost and I think the biggest reason why she lost is she didn't do A good enough job of showing that she will be changed Yeah, yeah That's the biggest actually said I'm gonna learn happy and she's more of this. Yeah
Starting point is 00:25:45 They wanted to change president and they said would you't be happy with her. And she's more of this. Yeah, elaborate. They wanted a change president. And they said, would you have done anything different than Biden? She goes, no. That's the biggest risk. What are we doing? That lost her. And I think the economic element of that, I don't think,
Starting point is 00:25:55 can be understated. Which is the change that you want to experience is an economic one. And she's basically saying, I don't think you did anything wrong. You're sitting at home going, I can't afford food anymore. I're more than the social issues personally like maybe those things factor in but I do Think the idea of people being like fuck bread is this expensive fucking I gotta buy and whatever you guys whether it's bread Whether it's migrants whether it's reproductive rights like anything bad that happened in the last four if you don't distance yourself
Starting point is 00:26:21 Away from that what that person is mad about, you're the reason for it. Yeah. And I saw an interesting analysis of Obama's election ads, like the ones that he paid for in Kamala's, and they did an analysis between them. And the majority of his were economic. It's like, hey, we're going to fix this. He's coming out of the recession. And then even with the second term, the economy is not fixed perfectly.
Starting point is 00:26:40 But he's like, look, we need to change this. They showed Gresham Whitmer when she was running that she was like, look, inflation is crazy, da da da da da. And then while Comma is running, like there's all these pieces done by these Democratic political writers being like, guys, the economy is actually great. And they're like gaslighting the general public and being like, guys, whatever you're feeling is actually not true. And whether or not things actually are on the numbers, people feel like it's not. You have to address their feelings. And they neglect the feeling. And as a result, it doesn't matter what it actually is. It's how people feel.
Starting point is 00:27:06 And people in the middle of the country that feel like, oh, this shit is not going well. The inflation is going crazy. The fact that she neglected that and then was going hard. And they even did like political polling in Pennsylvania, being like, going at Democrats. Okay, which one of these campaign slogans resonates the most with you? It was economic policy was resonating the most. And then Trump being a threat to democracy resonating the least. And then looking at Kamala's campaign things, it was like 30% was Trump is a threat to democracy. 30% is like abortion and social issues. And then like a tiny
Starting point is 00:27:35 little fraction, like five to 10% was economic. And so she didn't distance herself from the current economic system and then kind of went too wide with all these other issues. Whereas Trump is just like, hey, we'll fix the economy. I'm a business guy. I think Trump is generally beatable from a lot of other Democratic candidates. I think they could have run people. I don't think he's like an unbeatable guy. I mean, Biden beat him. And Pete would kill them. And so with that being said, it's like they just ran a bad person too late with a bad strategy. Yeah, I'm trying to think. I don't know who beats him, honestly. I think I think Pete is incredibly astute and charming and eloquent. There is a pathway to him becoming president and he just has to say that he's the
Starting point is 00:28:15 top. I know it sounds crazy, but if I said this before, it's not gay for the top. Oh, no, no, no, no, no. I said on Patreon, it's not gay for the top. Well, I think America would be like, yeah, all right, whatever. Yeah. I genuinely, but the idea that like, he's getting bent over with his back arched and his boyfriend is like having his fingers in his mouth
Starting point is 00:28:35 and pulling him like that. Oh, dude, what the fuck? What are you thinking about this so dead up? Yeah, that's what you guys are gonna be thinking about in the booth. What the hell? When you're filling out your affidavits, that's what's gonna be...
Starting point is 00:28:45 And you kind of lean over to vote too, like you're kind of bent over a little. He's just over your shoulder. Yeah, like, eww. So if he's atop, I think he could definitely win. And it sucks, isn't that a shame? But he could be atop, there's a 50% chance, really. And honestly, I don't know if Trump could beat a man. Yeah, that's true.
Starting point is 00:29:01 So far, he's only beaten women. But he beats the fuck out of women. He destroys women. He fucks women up. Dude, no woman ever run against fucking Trump, man. I was thinking this because people were saying like, it's just sad that people don't care about women's rights and blah, blah, blah. I think when you go into the voting booth, you've got kids and you are hurting financially.
Starting point is 00:29:20 It's like, hey man, all that shit sucks, but this is killing. I need to feed my kids. And that's all that's going to matter. I do still think so many of this could have so much of this could have been fixed campaign wise. Like instead of saying, hey, I wouldn't have distanced anything from Biden. You know what? We definitely didn't do anything perfect. You want to sell him out?
Starting point is 00:29:36 Great. Well, you know, Biden and I did everything together. We're a team. Sell his ass out. We made some mistakes. Sell his ass out. He wouldn't even know you were selling him out. Yeah, this is so funny that we talk. Biden called me the N word.
Starting point is 00:29:45 That's what I would say. Day one. I'd be like, this guy's a racist motherfucker. Get him out of here. It's about the win. I vote for Biden again. Yeah, I thought we both voted for Biden. Let him run again.
Starting point is 00:29:53 No, no, no, no. Let him walk up the stairs. I think we talked about this strategy is if there's not like it's one person making the decision. There's hundreds of billions of dollars behind each of these decisions. So for y'all to fuck up this hard is insane to me. For you to not understand the reach of podcasts, you're not just Kamala Harris.
Starting point is 00:30:11 They understood it. They didn't want the risk. That's what I think it is. And they didn't want her to be exposed. It's a risk, high reward, bro. Yeah, that's what you do. But Trump's not worried about it. But you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:30:21 He's like, I can handle this. I'm used to people saying the worst possible thing about me for the last fucking eight years. It doesn even matter. So whereas Kama they basically they had to protect her a little bit, you know Is what it is. Yeah Okay, so moving forward you asked in the group chat What day was it like a big Sunday or Monday like we thought would win now I think I was the only one that's Trump because I just felt the climate. Like I've never seen this much excitement for Trump. You wore your red hat today.
Starting point is 00:30:47 Respect. Respect that. Come on, bro. That's a secret. You did wear that hat. I'm about unity, guys. Now, here's the thing. We're on the road every weekend for shows.
Starting point is 00:30:58 I did tell you guys. Don't do this. Don't do this. Seriously. Don't do this. Oh my text. I come back and I go, I go, I think it's going to be a mauling. I don't see how he can win. The energy. Were you on the road this weekend? No.
Starting point is 00:31:10 Where were you performing? I was in the city the night before and I foolishly decided to ask him off. I was like, I'm going to be on the road. I'm going to be on the road. I'm going to be on the road. I'm going to be on the road. I'm going to be on the road. I'm going to be on the road.
Starting point is 00:31:23 I'm going to be on the road. I'm going to be on the road. I'm going to be on the road. I'm going to be on the road. I'm going to be on the road. I'm going he could win the energy. Were you on the road this weekend? No. Where were you performing? I was in the city the night before and I foolishly decided to ask some audience members who they were voting for and why. Some women spoke back. Weird. And they...
Starting point is 00:31:39 Not anymore! Those days are done. So basically they spoke back and it seemed like they were really perturbed about the Roe v. Wade ruling. What was that? Perturbed? No, the Roe, that was the abortion thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:57 So, and here's the reality. If we just want to talk about it, talk about it, you know what I mean? These women man they Can I be honest with you Please can I be on no, no, it's not even that crazy thing. I Think that there are women who? Will never get an abortion in their life that still don't like the idea
Starting point is 00:32:25 that something was taken away from them. Abortion is like their guns. Yeah. Do you know what I mean? It's just like, we were allowed to do it, and now we're not allowed to. Abortion is their guns is actually a fire point. It's their guns!
Starting point is 00:32:39 It's actually a fire point. Thank you! You thought Kamala was gonna win because you asked a comedy audience in New York City who they were gonna vote for. I didn't think she was gonna win. You said Kamala was going to win because you asked a comedy audience in New York City who they were going to vote for. I didn't think she was going to win. They said Kamala and you were like, wow, this is America. I didn't think she was going to win.
Starting point is 00:32:50 The comedy seller Saturday Night On It's not. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, You should get a job on Kamala's team. Let me tell you something. What a fucking unbelievable thing. Let me tell you something.
Starting point is 00:33:05 This is why, this is what I realized. I don't talk to women. Okay, I have a wife. I talk to her. When I'm done talking to her, I'm not trying to hear these bitches. You know what I mean? So I got all my talking right there. Okay, she didn't talk to me enough about this Roe v. Wade thing.
Starting point is 00:33:22 You know, I didn't get it. I didn't get enough Roe v Wade information for her. You know, she's busy trying to book a trip to Paris. That don't seem very Roe v Wade. Does it? Busy having a baby. You know what I mean? You know what I mean? We're holding this beautiful child.
Starting point is 00:33:42 If she got pregnant again, it's a blessing. It's a blessing. Okay. Akash, why are you looking? You don't even know what happened with Roe V. Wade. You don't even know what happened with Roe V. Wade. Do you know it? Do you know, would you want to know what happened? I do want to know. Do you want to know what happened? Please tell me, please. I'm dying to know. I have no idea. Anything happened. Do you think that she had the baby or not?
Starting point is 00:34:08 Just kidding. Yo, I think she did have the baby. Yeah, all this hoopla for nothing. All this hoopla for nothing. Hey, whatever happened to that baby? Do we ever find out? His name is Donald J. Trump. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:20 Yeah. What an origin story. What a fucking origin story. The boy who lives. The boy who lives! Nah, nah, she ended up having a baby! Right? Yeah, I think so.
Starting point is 00:34:35 I gotta double check, but I'm pretty sure. Row or wait? Talk that shit. The woman had the baby in 1970, but she wanted an abortion. But she was forced to have the child. We need to talk up to this kid. I mean, imagine the trauma. But she was born in Dallas, yo. Of course she was.
Starting point is 00:34:48 Hey, we didn't want that shit to happen. What do you mean? Texas is a very anti-abortion place. Yeah, but you are very getting nutted in place. Girls in Texas like to get comedic. Is that a thing? Dude, everybody knows that. It is one of the things that we would talk about amongst comedians on the road. We were like, you gotta be careful about Texas. These
Starting point is 00:35:08 girls like getting comedic a lot. I don't know if it's the illegals. I truly don't know the reason, but maybe it's something to do with the weather or the food even, but they love, they love that closeness. They love that proximity and they love the jizz. Apparently she's living in New Mexico, I think. Yeah. Yeah. They asked her in 2021. She said, I'm neither pro-choice nor pro-life. The daughter? Yeah. I didn't know that was an option. I mean, if you're the daughter, you, you gotta be like, phew, like you gotta be like a little anti-abortion.
Starting point is 00:35:47 She grew up not knowing that she was the baby until her birth mother appeared on The Today Show in 89. Oh, what an asshole. Yeah, that's crazy. Unless her life is shit and she's like, eh, I couldn't live without this shit. Yeah, that's what it seems like. That's what it seems like.
Starting point is 00:35:58 That's heartbreaking. That's not how she find out her mom went on a talk show, didn't tell her? Bro, imagine she committed suicide. Come on, man. imagine she committed suicide. Come on, man. Imagine she committed suicide. Let's put the suicide prevention. Late term.
Starting point is 00:36:10 Imagine she committed suicide. The latest term ever. Her mom shows up like, I could have done this shit for you. The fuck? Bro, did you hear about the woman that went into that suicide chamber? Did you hear about, this is like,
Starting point is 00:36:19 they have like the euthanasia chambers and some girl went into it, like did the first successful euthanasia. And then they looked at the body, there's like strangle marks on her neck apparently. And that pod in the woods, so the chair... One neighbor just has someone else in there that just strangles the life out of you. That's fucking disgusting.
Starting point is 00:36:36 But now they're looking into it, they think it might be foul play, that someone killed someone and put them in there, they're like, no, she killed herself. Ah, that makes a lot more sense. I don't know all the details. That makes a lot more sense than you go to a pot and the guy walks out and he chokes you. Yeah, it's more like DIY. It's more like a DIY euthanasia chamber. Mark, this is terrifying.
Starting point is 00:36:51 Not in Trump's America. Not in Trump's America we would have this kind of stuff. So what are we getting? Because I do think we swung, we were the beginning. American Golden Age. No, I mean, what are we getting? The American Golden Age. We were the tipping point, I believe this.
Starting point is 00:37:02 Before we get into that, can't we just talk about what we hope to see the next four years in America, right? What we would like in an ideal world. They put Roe V. Wade back on, turn that back on, flip that one. He gets to replace two Supreme Court justices, probably. He might pick two people that are low key pro-choice. Exactly. Because I don't think he was pro-choice. I think he just wanted to winice. Because I don't think he was pro-choice.
Starting point is 00:37:25 I think he just wanted to win the election. I don't think we could do much. What the fuck about it? Are we banging on these people dying? I think two might retire just because this is what the Democrats didn't do. Let me just get out now in case I die and there's a Democrat in office
Starting point is 00:37:37 and then we could lose our seats. Democrats are selfish, corrupt fucks and they're, Ruth Badergast was like, I'll just die and fuck women in the future. But I think two of the conservative ones might be like, let's just get out while they're getting this good. And he can appoint two conservative people in my place. I understand.
Starting point is 00:37:51 So, but he's still gotta get them past the Senate and the Senate is a- And they won't step down unless they know who he's putting in place and they have to be. Yeah. Okay, but basically I think the smart move would be to protect Roe v. Wade. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:04 And make an effort to protect it. And don't do this thing where you're just like, well, I'm gonna let the states decide. be to protect Roe v. Wade and make an effort to protect it. And don't do this thing where you're just like, well, I'm gonna let the states decide. No, federally protect it. I think that's what the majority of Americans would want right now. What makes you think he's gonna do that? I said wishful thinking.
Starting point is 00:38:17 It's just wishful thinking. Blindly optimistic. When they say they're gonna take inflation down, we go, I hope. None of them know how to do it. Oh, okay. But like this is what you would hope would happen. We're just fantasizing.
Starting point is 00:38:27 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like someone wins president in eighth grade, you're like, I'm gonna make the soda and the water fountain. School was free. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, reparations, got it. Yes. That's not happening. That's it, that's it.
Starting point is 00:38:35 Wait, can we do reparations for all disenfranchised people? No. Why? No. Us first. Let's do gay reparations first. Gay reparations. They got the most money anyway.
Starting point is 00:38:43 No, gay reparations, bro. Nah, I'm out. I am out. I think all the gay people that we've met against, bro. Nah, we first. They got the most money anyway. No, gay reparations bro. I'm out. I'm out. All the Broadway shows that didn't happen that they could have got paid for. That's what I'm saying bro. Let's do gay reparations or do black reparations. Alright guys, listen.
Starting point is 00:38:58 Probably at some point in this episode, I'm not exactly sure when, we talked about the election and how Trump waxed that ass. You could have bet on it. You could have bet on it. Could have bet on it. You could have went with Stake. You could have put your money where your mouth was. Yeah, in the mouth. Did I do it?
Starting point is 00:39:11 Did I bet on it? Yeah. Yep. No, I didn't. No, you fucked up. I fucked up. Because you knew based on your shows as a comedy seller, how things are gonna go.
Starting point is 00:39:18 You're 100% right about that. But the point is, you can bet on really almost anything. I mean, Stake is the leader in global betting and US social casinos. Really? I don't even know what a US social casino is. Yeah. Do you know what it is?
Starting point is 00:39:34 I don't know what a social casino is. Gamble your friendship. Do you know what it is? It's a legal casino is what it is. Is that really what it is? Yeah, yeah. We need to get to the bottom of that immediately, Jamil. I don't think that people really know
Starting point is 00:39:45 what a U.S. social casino is. Why don't they find out at Steak. Shit. Steak.com. Steak.com, listen, if you use the promo code flagrant, you're gonna get a welcome bonus. Welcome. Shit, that shit is almost as nice as a gift basket.
Starting point is 00:39:59 That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. That's it. But I'm serious, there are things that we could be gambling on. Will the Democrats storm the Capitol?
Starting point is 00:40:14 Yes. Please. Will they do it? Pussy hats, blue hair, busting down the doors. January 6th. Yeah. Who wants to get hit in the head with this shit? No.
Starting point is 00:40:23 Okay. All right, all right, all right. Listen, we got to get back to the head with this sheet? No. Let's go back to the show. All right, all right, all right. Listen, we got to get back to the show, but listen, let's all hang out at the social casino later. Let's get back to the show, man. Okay, no, in all seriousness, what do we hope happens? There's been talk about Elon getting involved in, you know, what is it, the Agency of Efficiency,
Starting point is 00:40:41 right? And cutting a lot of the bloat in government. Do we think that that is a good idea? What would that look like? It's a great idea. If anything gets done on that front, it'd be a win. But I think it's gonna be hard to get a single thing done on that front.
Starting point is 00:40:54 I think the problem is with like a lot of these organizations is a government organization will come up and they'll come up and in support of fixing a real problem. Let's say that problem is cats getting in trees. and in support of fixing a real problem, let's say that problem is cats getting in trees, right? And that agency lobbies to get some laws passed, to make trees, you know, make the trees all be covered in steel
Starting point is 00:41:19 so the cats can't climb them or whatever. All the trees are covered in steel, cats can't climb the trees,. We solved the problem. Okay? I like it. I like it. I'm trying to speak to the real American people here. You fucking liberal cunts. You coastal elites, laughing at my metaphor that actually
Starting point is 00:41:36 taps into the heartstrings of the good old American people. Good example. Okay? Thank you. I don't understand it. Project 2025. Thank you. Okay? You you, Al. I don't understand it. Project 2025, the cats and the trees. Okay? You wrap the steel around the trees, all right? Especially the willows and the oaks.
Starting point is 00:41:51 And when the willows and oaks are completely wrapped, the cats cannot climb up them. Why didn't you just go with homelessness? It's too real for people. It's too real for people. It's like a lot shorter. It's too painful. It's just a few syllables, it's too painful
Starting point is 00:42:09 Okay, anyway, I think I've got a great solution to catch the trees by the way nobody's talking about it I think I love a little bit of credit for this. Okay Think about how many people lose their kind of fucking tree. They just gotta sit there. It's a run that Fuck America. I'll move into Mexico. No, no, no, no. Come on. So, they solved the problem. Now, do all those people that work at the cats in the trees problem agency, do they
Starting point is 00:42:35 immediately retire after they come up with the genius solution? The genius solution to wrap steel around the trees? No, Kidfa still got it on purpose. Kidfa got it on purpose. So what do they do? Trans rights. steal around the no kid must have gotten purpose so what do they do? trans rights see if y'all just let me cook i get there always al believes in me i saw it i saw the vision
Starting point is 00:42:58 let me cook i get there chef boyar salty in a motherfucking building! Yeah. But, okay, so the point is, so they find another cause, and the causes get more and more extreme, and they get more and more ridiculous, but I have empathy for these people, right? These people are working, they solve the job, and they're like, well, I'm not going to fucking retire and go find another job, this is where I work. Some of these organizations, I'm sure, are doing things that are in the level of necessity very similar to KIPPA.
Starting point is 00:43:30 And they can fucking get snipped. Absolutely. Certainly there's waste in the institutions and you just hope they're able strategically and surgically cut out the waste in the blow without making the correction. But when you say it like that, nobody understands. Yes. When you say it like me, they're like, yo, we gotta fucking wrap steel around trees because cats are getting stuck up in their organization.
Starting point is 00:43:46 Get rid of it. As much as a genius as Elon is, does he do it strategically? Because he went into Twitter, cut like 70 to 80% of the staff, and Twitter's still down like 80% of his value since he's taken over. But yeah, but that's perception based,
Starting point is 00:44:02 and I'm okay with cutting a lot of government jobs. Like Vivek said, you cut a little muscle, that's all right with me. You've saved a lot of fucking money. What is that famous saying? Cut my life into pieces. This is my life in play. Suffocation, no breathing. Honestly, a great counterpoint. Yeah, Sad Guru said so I Think I think why is he so sad? It is a little bit obnoxious. They're not doing their job if you're a sad guru, you know, it should be enlightened talk that shit I'm gonna point No, I had one if my money's had one mud beat paper What happened to Zucamal 1? If Mudd had won?

That is important. You know, cause we had abortion and then Lena Dunham was out there like, yo, one of my greatest regrets is I ain't getting abortion. First of all, that's not totally up to you. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:45:57 You know what I mean? You know what I'm saying? That pullout game was on Usain Bolt. When I was strogan her down. Dude, she could have got a donor, she could have got a sperm donor. Just a scoop? That's, you are diabolical.
Starting point is 00:46:10 That's diabolical. You are fucking diabolical, Mark. Well, did anybody at the transverse that tried to transition to get an abortion? Mark, take his new tonic right now. Mark is on some wild shit right now. His news is wild. I haven't read it, bro.
Starting point is 00:46:23 Yeah, it is. We got Zen in one hand, Newtonian in the other. Yo, what the fuck is coming on here, dude? You know Mark voted for Trump 13 fucking times. He voted here and in Florida. Mail it. No, no, no, okay. What is this crazy story?
Starting point is 00:46:36 There's a trans person trying to transition to be the first trans person to get an abortion. When are they on camp? When are they on camp? That's a good idea. When are they on camp? I've been reaching out for weeks. I wanna go watch camp? I've been reaching out for weeks. I want to go watch it.
Starting point is 00:46:46 I've been reaching out for weeks, bro. I want to watch that episode. They haven't responded. Okay? They haven't responded. It's a woman that's transitioning into a man. A man transitioned into a woman. To get an abortion?
Starting point is 00:46:58 And then get a uterus put in and then get a baby in the uterus. You can't put a uterus in. Yeah, what? You're so small-minded. I'm not small-minded. I just know for a fact you can't put it in. I mean, you can put it in there. It's just going to float around. Elon, you can't rock a uterus in. Yeah, what? You're so small-minded. I'm not small-minded. I just know for a fact you can't put it in. I mean, you can put it in there. It's just gonna float around.
Starting point is 00:47:07 As long as you can rock it on chopsticks, you can't put a uterus inside a dude. Yeah. Come on. Catching a rocket with chopsticks is easy. You just need to make a machine that goes like that. They are kind of chopsticks when you think about it. It's kind of already chopsticks.
Starting point is 00:47:18 It's really not that hard. It's just dead. That's it. You don't think we've made machines go dead? Come on. There's one guy in the booth, and he just hits a button, and it goes dead. And people it. That's it. You don't think we've made machines go dead? Come on. There's one guy in the booth and he just hits a button and it goes dead.
Starting point is 00:47:27 And people are like, this is the greatest invention of all time. Yeah. No, what you just said to me is fucking insane. Putting a uterus inside of a man. For the sole purpose of getting pregnant and then having an abortion. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:42 Wow. There's the future. There's the future, bro. Wow, que caso. I don't know. Wow. The real thing that's happening. Yeah. No, it's not. It's not a real thing. It's one person on the internet. It's one fucking kooky mongoloid. One kooky mongoloid is gonna try to do this and then cause a big stir but not in Trump's America anymore. Alright guys, let's take a break for a second. Listen, Sober October is officially over. Yes.
Starting point is 00:48:06 Yeah. There you go. Basically, what happened was we recorded our whoop scores. I won by unanimous decision. That's not true. That's not true. You got the popular vote. In Donald Trump's America, I won by unanimous decision.
Starting point is 00:48:18 You won by the electoral score and the popular vote. I won the electoral college. There's voter fraud. There's voter fraud. There's no voter fraud. I won the electoral college. There's no voter fraud. I won the electoral college. I thwarted all of the liberal things. And basically what's happening now is that my sleep score is absolutely incredible. I've had zero alcohol consumption in the last 30 days.
Starting point is 00:48:40 And I've been getting along with my wife a lot better. Turns out when you don't drink alcohol and you sleep a lot more, your marriage is essentially fixed, it's perfect. Wow. I would look at my HRV score, is that it? Yeah. Yeah. That's an HRV?
Starting point is 00:48:55 Harvey variability is correct. I would look at my HRV score when I would get bricked and I would throw it in the waistband. Packing, concealed. Only semi-concealed to be honest with you, because if I had to lift something high off a shelf you would see my dick tip popping out over my bell buckle. Whoops. That's what I call it though. Whoops.
Starting point is 00:49:18 There it is. Whoops. It's really the reason why they call it whoops, right? Because you reach in for the healthy cereal, uh-oh, dick tip popped up, because my HRV is phenomenal, my blood flow is crazy, my dick has grown two to three inches, minimum. Point is, you can see what kind of improvements in your health you can make for yourself.

Starting point is 00:50:42 Your girl probably thinks about cheating on you right now. Honestly, if you got any fucking sense. And I am with her unless you take the necessary steps to fix your dick game. Step it up. Performance enhancing drugs are legal in this world. In this world, that's why you need Blue Chew. Blue Chew has got all the same active ingredients

What about Four Awards, can we end those? You know, you already saw what happened. Day one.
Starting point is 00:51:25 What happened? The Houthis. You know who they are? Yeah, Rwanda? Yemen, motherfucker. The Houthis and Tutsus? No, no, it's the Tutsis and Houthis. Oh, okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:51:34 The Houthis. Okay. They're in Yemen and they, day one, were like, yo, my bad. Oh, what? Day one, they said, my bad. Trump be bringing the ruckus to these folks, dude. You gotta admit it, He be shutting them up.
Starting point is 00:51:46 But what did they actually say? They said my bad. I don't know how they pronounce it. Is this true? What does that translate to in Arabic? They're like something of the sort. I think they're saying that means kill the Jews. Our operations in the waters off because they basically target ships that are passing
Starting point is 00:52:00 and hijacking and doing all the things. And now all the sudden it's all good. Now it's all good because they know what the fuck time it is. Iran, they need to be worried. Oh. Because he thinks they try to take him out, right? Oh, fuck yeah. That's the first people I'm getting my get back on.
Starting point is 00:52:19 Let's go get our corners, Doug. What about Russia, Ukraine? That's just done. He said he would stop that. That's over immediately. That's over immediately. What about Russia-Ukraine? He said he would stop that. That's over immediately. What about these Jews? I don't know why they're all singing. I mean, if there is any justification or reason why I would think that they're very happy It's the fact that I didn't want to go to 58th Street to that polling station and Tanya goes I'll drive you So I think we know what side the Jews are on and this is are they banned in Tiktok? No, why not?
Starting point is 00:52:59 You don't have to do that now You don't have to do that now. Why? It's Chinese pilot. Just put a tariff on it. He's gonna make the US buy TikTok. No, no, no, no. I think TikTok's fine. Even if it's controlled by the Chinese government?
Starting point is 00:53:14 Yeah, what's your deal, dude? Well, okay, my honest answer is Trump is already elected. You can't win re-election, so he's not really worried about that. So he's like, alright, do whatever you want. You can influence the next election, but it's not gonna-election, so he's not really worried about that. So he's like, all right, do whatever you want. Like, you can influence the next election, but it's not going to be me involved, so I'm going to go fuck. That's my perception.
Starting point is 00:53:31 I think TikTok in terms of influencing election that he's involved in is way more concerning for him than the following election. And I think by the next election, he's like, I'm 82, if my kids aren't running, which I don't think any of them will, is like, I don't know how involved he's gonna be, but I can't imagine it's gonna be bad. What about all the tweets? I've seen people say, like, oh, the mayor is over, this guy's gonna take Project 2025,
Starting point is 00:53:52 he's gonna destroy the country. No, not at all. I don't think he's into Project 2025. I don't think he, I'm not saying everything he said was honest, but I believed him when he said, I got nothing to do with that. That was one thing I believed. I didn't believe him when he told me
Starting point is 00:54:04 I'm gonna dial back the rhetoric. Dad, I have a hard time believing. But when he was like that, because that just doesn't sound like his shit at all. And he doesn't seem like he is gonna do something because they tell him to, either part, anybody. He's like, you're not gonna tell me what to do. No matter what fucking, who you are, I don't care.
Starting point is 00:54:20 I'm gonna do what I wanna do. You're gonna try and push your little shit on me. It's not gonna happen. Now, there's a part of me that goes like he might look back and see FDR got three terms No, that might Somebody just gotta not tell Trump that FDR got three terms because it's very possible Trump has no clue FDR was in there for three terms, but once he finds that shit out The fuck did that legless dude get to do
Starting point is 00:54:45 three terms with the president? I'm definitely running back for one more. Bloomberg got an extra term when he was mayor. Bloomberg, we should run that back to be honest with you. Of course, there is a world where that happens, and I would be super against that. I would be so against that. That would be the worst part.
Starting point is 00:55:02 No, no, in all seriousness, in all seriousness, I'd be very much against that. And I think that would be cause for concern. No, no, in all seriousness, in all seriousness, I'd be very much against that. And I think that is, that would be cause for concern. But I don't think he'll go after that, genuinely. I genuinely don't think it. I genuinely don't think it. Well, they wrote an amendment against it. After FDR, right?
Starting point is 00:55:18 So there was no rule before that? I don't think so. There wasn't. There was no term limits. I think it was like an unspoken thing. Like you just generally do it So he did too so everybody's like you're right. That's why I call him George W. Yeah So so he did too therefore other people can do too. Yeah, and he didn't I think he intentionally didn't run a third time
Starting point is 00:55:39 How much fun was having slaves that he was like i'm tired of being president I'm not seeing the correlation. I mean, I know, I'm sure it was fun. No correlation. I'm sure it wasn't boring. He left the presidency to go own his slaves again. But he could do both. No, he couldn't.
Starting point is 00:55:55 If you're president, you just kind of all, you just have slaves everywhere. No, you couldn't. He couldn't do it the way he wanted to. He couldn't do it the way he wanted. No, no, no, no. George Washington. George Washington. Like he had to be in there signing documents all fucking day and he's looking at the field. He's like, no. You think once Abe lost his slaves, he was like somebody
Starting point is 00:56:15 put a bullet in my head. Fuck. Apparently that's why George Washington left. The target guy is like, yeah, he's like a huge land speculator, had so much money. He's like the wealthiest guy when he left presidency to this day. He's like the richest president Okay, so when I said it, oh, there's no correlation. It doesn't make any sense. And then when that You guys hate real Americans you guys hate real real hardworking Americans. That's what it is. You're liberal elitists, you're some champagne liberals, and when a real hardworking blue collar American like me comes along, blue collar. Blue collar, you can't even put a tushy on your toilet.
Starting point is 00:56:54 What's that? A bidet. Yeah, because that's a gay thing to do. Yeah, I'm not gonna absolutely shoot it in my ass. A bidet is a blue collar. That's the most blue collar, dude. That's real man. What is going on with you? I'm just saying you can't install anything in your life.
Starting point is 00:57:06 You're so far from blue collar. Can you just acknowledge that was a horrible way to prove your point? For example. There we go. I'm like, what the fuck? For example. I stand by my point. For example.
Starting point is 00:57:16 I could have gone with a better thing you couldn't have done. Build a shelf for the sun. Build a shelf would have been a better thing. Change the oil in your car. Change the oil. Change the oil. Change the oil. Change the tire.
Starting point is 00:57:24 Change the front tire. There's a lot of things. I just oil in your car. Change the oil. Change the oil. Change the oil. Change the plant top. Change the tire. Change the paint top. There's a lot of things. I just grab the first one. You can't even put foam on a Macchiato.
Starting point is 00:57:32 You call yourself blue collar. You can't assemble a charcuterie. What about you is blue collar at all. Yo, our guys are just so fucking rich. It's unbelievable. It's crazy. This guy's so rich, dude. What a rich fucking guy you are.
Starting point is 00:57:46 A lot of Indians came out for Trump. Do you think you had anything to do with it? Yeah, dude. I'm a hero over there. You're a glowing endorsement. I'm a hero over there. What did Modi say? I'm gonna be...
Starting point is 00:57:55 That was the most non-racist Indian accent I've ever heard. It was Japanese. Japanese? That was funny. Nobody caught on to that. Nobody caught on to that. He did a Japanese accent. And we just sat there pretending that he wasn't doing a Japanese accent. He might not know that Modi's not Japanese. Yeah, he's Asian. Facts! Okay, so we hope that Elon is involved, yes? Yeah, sure. It is interesting that...
Starting point is 00:58:31 It worries me a little bit. Well, okay, I wanna hear that perspective. Just because of how quick he is with his cuts, like in a private sector, cool, but with the government, it's too many ramifications. So what he said was, I thought quite interesting. He was like, we have to take care of these people. So I think what we should do is pay them two years of salary the day that we fire them. We don't want people to leave and then be homeless. We don't want people to leave
Starting point is 00:59:00 and hurt. These are people with families. So he's like, let's pay them the two years of salary upfront and Then they'll have two years to figure out the next thing they're gonna do with their life And these are people who obviously can hold a job These are people who obviously are proficient at something so they'll go help America in other ways and hold positions in other ways But at least we won't be kicking them out the door and then they're on their ass But then also the way he's two years a little fucking crazy Two years you get all fucking midterm to figure out what you want to do?
Starting point is 00:59:27 That's nuts, dude. You leave my office right now? A year! A year is more than enough. No, no, come on. So whatever they end up coming to, at least what I was saying is when he said that, I was like, okay, at least there's some compassion here, because I was concerned about that too. You have a friend who has a job that he's working for the government, and a lot of people,
Starting point is 00:59:42 you remember this, like when you get a job working for the government, there is this feeling like, okay, as long as I stick in this job for 25, 30 years, I'll be safe, I'll have my, what is it called, pension. And like, I'll be able to like retire and take care of my family. You rich fucks don't even know. We're not even rich fucks.
Starting point is 00:59:59 We just never had a one-am job. I never have a job where you get two years paid like, paid severance. So two years is a lot, but... Have some compassion. Yeah, you're so godfathered. Two years is insane. Like, years, honestly, too much, but you can have it. Akash is so funny.
Starting point is 01:00:14 I know. His mother fucker was almost poor, and he's like, yo... No, he was poor. He was so poor. He used to go to one of his government jobs. You asked him about a government job. Yeah, because they don't do shit. All right, guys, we're gonna take a break real quick because we've got to talk about
Starting point is 01:00:26 Morgan & Morgan. Look, if you get wrongfully injured because somebody else's malfeasance, neglect, malevolence, whatever other SAT hit parade I want to use, it sucks. Alright, that shit sucks. You've got to deal with doctors, medical insurances also sucks. The whole thing is an awful process. It's really hard. You know what's easy though?
Starting point is 01:00:44 It's submitting a claim on Morgan & Morgan You know Morgan & Morgan is America's largest injury law firm with over a hundred offices Nationwide and over 800 lawyers and they've recovered over 15 billion dollars for over 300,000 clients They've been fighting for the people for over 35 years and most importantly submitting an injury claim with Morgan & Morgan is super easy So again guys, if you are ever injured you can check out Morgan & Morgan is super easy. So again, guys, if you are ever injured, you can check out Morgan & Morgan. And this is important, their fee is free unless they win. So if you lose, you don't owe them jack shit. They didn't do their jobs.

Starting point is 01:03:46 I texted you. That's the most insane shit ever. My wife looked at me at about 10 p.m. and she goes, you did this. Hey, we asked her to come on. Brown bitch didn't want to come on. Why didn't she? Why didn't she? I don't know.

Starting point is 01:04:29 You don't think she's black? She's a brown bitch. I'm a brown bitch? Do you guys think that plays a little part in like the success of white people around the world just being on time? No. I don't. Do you think a little?
Starting point is 01:04:40 Fashionably, wait. That's y'all. Isn't that like the thing now? No, no, no. We're on time. That's because you're not fashionable ever. The whites are on time. The whites are on time. You're never on time.
Starting point is 01:04:49 Me? You're the last one here by an hour. I'm not white. What are you? Orthodox. I am Orthodox. You know. Wait, but you guys aren't concerned at all with the way, um... Oh, I know, I know. I'm still cooking. I'll stop myself a beer.
Starting point is 01:05:06 I'll stop. I'll stop myself a beer. Are you concerned about our rights? You're gonna be stressful on... Are you concerned about Project 2025? And what's gonna happen to democracy in America? Are you concerned about it? Oh, there's a ceiling kiss? I don't care. Wait, how you doing? Gay hog? I got a gay hog.
Starting point is 01:05:22 I gotta get my somatic. Oh, Paul! Oh, shit! Yeah! That's fun. I got to get my son out of this one. Al is one Ame sale away from not giving a fuck about what happened in this election, bro.
Starting point is 01:05:38 Ame, put some shit on 40% off for Al. Send me the free pass. Okay, never mind. I'll send me the free pass. Okay. No, you brought it up. I'm just sure. What's the question? What? Because you see how Twitter is right now.
Starting point is 01:05:53 I know it's coming. Well, how's Twitter right now? Like all the fucking anti-Semitism shit that you see. Anti-Semitism. Slag tights. Mars don't start. Mars don't start. I'll send in your direction.
Starting point is 01:06:08 It's not American, dog. You don't talk to dogs like that no more. You do whatever you want to do over there. Miles texted me, bad ladies like, damn, we losing, right? He just goes, wrong text. What were you saying? There's a lot of anti-Semitism? I give sorry. No, no, what were you saying? Why, there's a lot of anti-Semitism? I give up. There's a lot of anti-Semitism on the... Are you concerned about racism or anti-Semitism? No, Elon, the way he slashes jobs.
Starting point is 01:06:32 He doesn't do it strategically. He's just like... What about anti-Semitism? Yeah, what does that have to do with... He broke Twitter in a way that Twitter's kind of wild now. Like it's a little... It's not... That's what you're saying.
Starting point is 01:06:43 Twitter is wild and that is the cost of free speech. And I think what's happening right now is basically people are so so like you get a new car right. You get a Ferrari you want to drive as fast as it can go. That's what people are doing free speech. Ideally what happens is in the next year two years people start going oh you don't need to drive the cars
Starting point is 01:07:03 fast every single time. And I think this is what happened when like Sirius XM came around, remember, like, and you could curse on Sirius XM and everybody was cursing. And then people started to realize like, oh, it doesn't make it better that you can curse. You know, eventually you actually have to say things that are like thoughtful and interesting. So right now it's working that you could just be, you know, super racist or super anti-semitic or super hateful And I think eventually it just kind of calms down Part of the reason is because he slashed jobs by so much and so on some of the people that were like
Starting point is 01:07:34 Would tame down that noise are no longer there. I don't believe that I believe that he's committed to free speech and unfortunately free speech protects hate speech. I think it's 70% drop in. No, I don't believe he's as altruistic as a lot of the right beliefs. I do believe there's some. He definitely wanted Trump to get elected. He want he had his reasons. I wonder if it's because JD Vance seems to be in big tech's pocket.
Starting point is 01:07:57 Like Peter Thiel funded his whole presidential thing. I wonder if they're like, we can control that guy. That's one step away from Trump. Let's get Trump elected. You trust him, JD Dave events. I do not That let me tell you something to do what he did in his life Oh, he's nice, but I don't like the guy his mom was a drug addict, right? Yeah poor ends up going to Yale
Starting point is 01:08:20 Navigating Yale with really nothing to offer remember a lot of people that go to these elite private schools, like their legacy individuals, and the people at these schools, a lot of them are entering banking and or some sort of like VC hedge fund world, where having wealthy family members is very valuable because you can use them as assets for investment,
Starting point is 01:08:44 whatever these companies are. Navigating that world with really nothing to offer those people takes super high emotional intelligence. This guy's smart. No question. I don't know how much I trust him. That's exactly how I feel. He's nice.
Starting point is 01:08:58 In that debate, he was nice. He's nice. He's a shark, dog. But I need to sit in a room with him, and I need to be like, and they asked us to have him on. And my feeling was if we had him on but we didn't have anybody from the Democrats side on, it would seem too unfair.
Starting point is 01:09:17 Like I thought we were more or less balanced. We had Cuban on and then we had Trump on. We tried to get someone else, tried to get Buttigieg on. He's supposed to come on and then he has to do debate prep. Maybe that's an excuse or maybe not, but. Yeah. I just felt like it would be too one-sided. But I do, in order to know if I can trust him,
Starting point is 01:09:33 I gotta sit in a room with him. That is, to do what he did in his life is- I don't question his ability. Is very difficult. I don't question his ability. I question a little bit his motives and how he operates. In four years, he's next up. And think about it, talk crazy shit about Trump.
Starting point is 01:09:48 Yeah, that's the wildest shit. Well, to me, this is also evidence, people go, oh, Trump is about to go after all the people that hate him on him. I don't think that's really how he operates. If those people take a step in his direction, he's fine. Vince McMahon. So if they continue to hate on him, then they might be fucked.
Starting point is 01:10:13 But if they try to be diplomatic and they try to work with him and do things, clearly he will forgive. He forgot. If the VP is a guy who hated him more than anything, said vile things about him. Now he made him VP next in line to rule the country. Cause that, could that also show how easily manipulative? I mean, how easy he can be manipulated. I think that's one way of looking at the argument. And it's just the same coin, right?
Starting point is 01:10:32 One side is always easily tricked or manipulated. The other side is he looks at it as business or he looks at it as the game. He looks at it as politics. And once you're willing to get on board, if you're willing to help the agenda and you can help the agenda, doesn't matter what you said, let's go make this work. Probably a little bit of both. So it could be, yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:50 Our thing is culturally more annoying now with Trump. Oh, break that down, that's an interesting one. Like, from 2016 to 2020, it just seemed like every day there was like a culture war happening. He would tweet some shit and then people would dissect it and there'd be back and forth. And if you said something like specifically on stage and you'd be like, I think this, people would be like,
Starting point is 01:11:07 wait, are you a Trump guy? Are you not? Is that a redo? I agree with you. It's over. It's not a redo, it's an over. It's a unanimous victory. People are exhausted.
Starting point is 01:11:16 I actually think him losing in 2020 is the best thing that could have happened because America clearly wasn't ready to reject the path that was going on. And the 2024 victory is America unanimously going, okay, we don't like what the Democrats are offering. We actually don't even trust the way
Starting point is 01:11:36 that they're positioning Trump to be. Like, yeah, there might be some issues, but it's not as bad as the Democrats are making it. I mean, like seeing Obama on there, like on the trail, and this was like heartbreaking a little bit, like him spouting hoaxes, like he's on the campaign trail. Like he's saying things that have been debunked and proven false. Like what? There are good people on both sides thing.
Starting point is 01:12:00 Like there's all these things that, and it's just like, even Obama, like Obama, like this is, maybe I hold him to a higher regard than I should, they're all politicians at the end of the day. Yeah, I should have thought that. Yeah, yeah. I did hear the full part of what Trump said, but if you're at a rally and there's KKK and white nationalists right next to you,
Starting point is 01:12:23 are there good people on both sides? If you're rolling with these people. So the context of this conversation is the Charlottesville thing. And like, there were people that don't wanna tear down all the statues and the people that do wanna tear down the statues. And I think his argument that like,
Starting point is 01:12:38 there's good reasons to wanna tear it down and there's good reasons to maybe not wanna tear them down. Like we start looking into the morality of all these people that we have statues of good or bad, all of a sudden they're going to start coming down. Like George Washington had slaves. I get it. Yank it. Like what I'm saying, if you're marching for something, even though maybe the cause is moral, just whatever the case is, but right next to you is KKK, it's white nationals. Are you really on the right side? I understand your positioning 100%.
Starting point is 01:13:10 The unfortunate thing is sometimes your views align with people whose views are abhorrent. So for example, KKK people might want smaller government. You might want smaller government. You guys might agree on that. That doesn't mean you support KKK people might want smaller government. You might want smaller government. You guys might agree on that. That doesn't mean you support KKK shit. Yeah, I'm just saying if there's a march for smaller government and KKK shows up and be like, I'm gonna sit that one out. Yeah, he could have said nothing.
Starting point is 01:13:39 But it's like if you're in a free speech debate, you're like, look, I see both sides. But that doesn't mean I'm like endorsing the people that are pro-Hitler. Well, I do think Trump will, he doesn't wanna lose ever. So he will co-sign some shit that he shouldn't co-sign if he knows those guys are gonna vote for him and he doesn't want, and if he doesn't, then he's gonna lose their vote.
Starting point is 01:13:56 He'll figure, and then he'll figure out whoever's outraged on the backend. But let me just not lose their vote. And I don't love, I don't like that, I don't. I would say also, to your initial point, I think being comedians, we're in making the jokes, whatever, the height of like the cancel culture shit was like 2015, 2016.
Starting point is 01:14:14 I think Trump getting elected the first time was the beginning of the downward, we're done with this. And I think 2016 when he won, everybody's like, but he lost to popular. So you still felt emboldened that the majority of the country is with me. Now this is such a decisive victory. Trump won the popular. I do think people in the middle have to start looking like, oh, these leftists don't got it.
Starting point is 01:14:33 They act like they got it. They don't got it. And they're going to believe what they're going to believe because they're retards, as are people in the far right. But like, just a rejection. Yes. It's just a rejection of like, um, actors as influencers. Actors and musicians don't move the needle. And yeah, it's just a rejection of actors as influencers. Oh yeah. Actors and musicians don't move the needle. No. And a lot of that comes from the connection thing
Starting point is 01:14:52 we were talking about earlier. It's like, as famous as actors are, we don't really feel connected to them. Like, I'm not, as cool as fucking George Clooney is, he's the coolest guy on the fucking planet. You know, Ocean's 11, 12, 13, I'm like, I just wanna exist in those movies. But I'm not connected to him like I am
Starting point is 01:15:06 like a guy like Joe Rogan. So Joe Rogan could influence me way more than a George Clooney. And I think that that exists even at the highest level like a Taylor Swift. We have an idea of who Taylor is, but I don't know if she connects with us on a day-to-day basis like a podcaster does.
Starting point is 01:15:28 Or to be fair, like radio hosts did back in the day, like a Howard Stern probably had way more influence. Yeah. I mean, I think evidence of that is like the T-Nos coming out. What's that? Like Latinos came out and like big numbers for... Huge numbers for Trump. Yeah. And like, I think that was like the biggest disparity from 2020. I think it was like 25 or 30 points more Latinos, even in swing states like PA and shit. So even on the heels of Tony's joke,
Starting point is 01:15:53 and people are like, oh, this is gonna swing the election, da da da, that seems like it had no effect. And Latinos were still like, no, we like Trump. And that's again in the face of the cancel culture thing. It's like, that was one thing I did get right. We talked about it on the Patreon. I was like, I don't think this joke hurts Trump
Starting point is 01:16:06 or Tony at all. I don't think it fucking matters. They're both going to be fine. Cause it's just a joke. And again, to the cancel culture thing, we're not buying into that shit anymore. I had an interesting take about that from Gnome from the comedy seller. And he basically said like, the fact that they didn't vet the jokes And he basically said like the fact that they didn't vet the jokes is Indicative of Them not caring about
Starting point is 01:16:38 Comedy being like Them not dangerous. Yeah dangerous like in a positive way meaning like they like, we're not going to be the administration that like censors jokes. They're just jokes. Why would we waste time looking over your jokes? We don't need to do that. It's true. You're a comedian and you just do it. Now that might be a very gracious way of looking at it, but I thought it was a kind of interesting
Starting point is 01:16:59 take. Like I imagine the Democrats are like, well, we need to see every single word and see every single joke. And they're like, we're not going to police your fucking jokes. That's not what our organization is doing That's not what we're our administration is gonna do that was an interesting take I it's more one of those takes are like I want to believe I don't know if it's actually real but um Yeah, yeah Tony's vindicated though. Yeah free
Starting point is 01:17:24 He was watching that shit nervously, bro. Bro, calm him. Stay under Spanish Harlem. Yeah, he had it. Puerto Ricans, they might still be upset. By the way, Tony. It's actually, he picked the perfect group because most Latinos don't like Puerto Ricans.
Starting point is 01:17:39 So that's the thing. That's the thing. It's like all these white people coming out like, yo, Puerto Rico is not garbage But all these Latinos were like, oh sometimes you get it right Yeah, I know Sometimes jokes are true. That's why it's funny Yeah
Starting point is 01:17:57 Did you guys talk about on the patreon the the Tony Hitchcliffe joke? Yeah, it just wasn't yeah We basically said the environment wasn't conducive to doing these jokes. Also, the joke just didn't make sense. And I think, like, jumps. For New Yorkers, is what I'm saying. Like, New Yorkers, we think of Puerto Rico as this, like, tropical, beautiful island.
Starting point is 01:18:16 It's not viewed as, like, a garbage island. That's a great point. So that's why the audience was like, huh, that's weird, because it's like our first trip to a tropical, beautiful place in our lives. So the punchline didn't make sense and that's why I didn't land in the room. There are maybe places that you could use
Starting point is 01:18:33 that would have worked for the joke, for sure. But I think the takeaway now is just, yeah, he's a comedian, he's a rose comedian. Like Jon Stewart, the best, you know, hats off to Jon Stewart because he took that shit on the chin, like he went immediately, hey, he's to Jon Stewart because he took that shit on the chin. Like he went immediately, hey, he's a rose comedian, he's hilarious, this is what they do. Maybe the administration shouldn't have brought him up there to do it because that's what he does,
Starting point is 01:18:53 but we're not going to get upset at the guy for doing the thing he does. And for him, knowing the base that he's built and the trust that they have in him to come out there and say that first, I think that took a lot of the heat off of. Yeah, he's the best. Yeah. So what happens now? What does the media do? I don't think the media can sit back and go, all right, we don't have the influence that we had before, and we have to change all our programs, and we have to make everything long form where you can really get to know somebody. It just doesn't match the goal of legacy media, which is to sell pharmaceuticals or to sell Bud Lights or whatever the fuck they,
Starting point is 01:19:34 the reason why there are all these shows. So I think the only thing they can do is deny that they have a lack of influence and then make radioactive the opposition. Yeah, same play. The same play always. So it's just like, you're racist, a lack of influence and then make radioactive the opposition. Yeah. Same play. The same play always. So it's just like, you're racist, you're blah blah blah, you're sexist, you're a bad person.
Starting point is 01:19:54 I would not be surprised if there are articles about us and the other podcasts that were successful in this time that are not supportive and congratulatory. I wouldn't see articles, wow, they built up a community and they were able to have a conversation that was really unique. They'll leave out that we asked common multiple times to come on. Of course, of course. And they'll probably try to make us as toxic as possible by bringing up everything that we may be tangentially accused
Starting point is 01:20:26 of throughout our careers and not mentioning anything successful that we've done throughout our careers. Like so, because that's the only thing that they can do to maintain their status quo. Yeah. Which is a badge of honor, kind of. It's a badge of honor, but I think it's important to talk about these things. Like, one thing I'll give Trump credit for is his calling out the media created protection for him. Because the media online, new media, old media,
Starting point is 01:20:58 can create narratives that are just not true. And you have to decide, you're like, should I address this? Should I just ignore it? And a lot of times you don't wanna address it because you don't wanna put more heat on it. But there's a version where if you address it, then all of a sudden your fans start to go, oh, this is bullshit, this is made up, this is not true. And then they stop believing what was going on.
Starting point is 01:21:20 You know? Yeah. Yeah, so it's just one of those things where like, I wonder, like, our take is like, if you're not really like a real resource that's not getting a lot of views, it doesn't really matter. Like, we just kind of ignore it. But maybe there's a version where we should be addressing more things. Maybe. I figured people are eventually going to see it and then they stop trusting the outlets that just lie for views. But maybe that reviews. But maybe that's not the case.
Starting point is 01:21:45 Yeah, I mean, I just feel like I saw a turn with Rogan. Like once like all the COVID stuff was happening, he was kind of talking out against it, and then they're using his images with like color correction to make him look worse on CNN. And then the way that they've slandered him after he like became vocal about that issue, I think more and more people were like,
Starting point is 01:22:00 wait, this guy, lifelong liberal, like endorsed Bernie more or less, like was like supportive of Bernie. And now you're calling him like all these names and slurs. It's like, all right. And I think that is a moment where a lot of people go like, oh, they're just calling everyone they don't like a Nazi. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:15 And I think we should pay attention to like who these creators are, who the writers are, and see if there's a pattern. Oh, okay. You know, like see if there's a pattern of these types of pieces being written See if that's essentially like what they do. Yeah. Oh, yeah Right like in the same way that they'll try to create patterns for us and they'll try to create narratives about us I imagine that if we look back at the pieces that they make there will be some patterns
Starting point is 01:22:42 They might not like out there. And it might undermine their journalistic integrity. So it's something that we should look at. Like as we go into this new media landscape, it's up to us also have integrity, which I think we did, especially during the election. Like we could have, we could have been so biased in one direction. We had everybody on the right was wanting to come on the show. And we're like, if we do that, it will just be too biased. And we're not going to give our audience like a true understanding of what this political
Starting point is 01:23:11 landscape is so that they can make a decision that they believe. Yeah. Yeah. It is interesting to see Bezos not endorse Kamala through Washington Post. And then also Zuckerberg kind of at the same time being like, oh yeah, the Biden administration was trying to get us to like squash all these stories. Yeah, that was wild. Like all these large tech guys, all simultaneous.
Starting point is 01:23:29 That is also what makes me a little more wary of JD Vance though. And I don't look at that as much as an admonishment of the Biden administration as I do. It was a little worrying that all these massive like technocrats or whatever are suddenly all kind of shifting this way. And it could just be they're unhappy,
Starting point is 01:23:46 but I also am like, oh, your vice president is funded by a technocrat. This seemed a little convenient, the timing. Yeah, but also Pence was not funded, but was largely influenced by the evangelical right. And I don't feel like that played a huge effect on Trump outside of the room. I don't fear their influence.
Starting point is 01:24:02 That was huge. Yeah, but it didn't stop necessarily Pence. Pence wasn't just lap dogging on Trump outside of the room. I don't fear their influence. That was huge. Yeah. But like, I mean, it didn't stop necessarily like Pence, you know, like Pence wasn't just like lap dogging on Trump. You know what I mean? Like there's still like friction between them. And so in the same way, I wonder how much JD can actually even force Trump. This is not my conspiracy,
Starting point is 01:24:16 but if we're getting real conspiratorial. Let's go. These guys are powerful enough to be like, yo, let's just get Trump out of there and let's get our guy. He's VP now. We couldn't have gotten him elected. We can make him president now.
Starting point is 01:24:29 That's interesting. I don't know if I should give credit to whoever, but like, yeah, that's not, but it didn't seem completely impossible when he said it. I think that all of these people are hedging. And I think Bezos is hedging. Bezos didn't endorse Trump. He just said, I'm not going to endorse any of them. And by not endorsing through the Washington Post, which is what
Starting point is 01:24:50 we're talking about, he left it open for interpretation. And now he can go to Trump and be like, okay, listen, there's certain government contracts I would like to continue. I mean, Jeff Bezos got like really favorable government contracts for his space program. Elon is best buddies with Trump. I can't fathom that Trump is going to side with Bezos over Elon for any type of like government funded space exploration. But maybe, and I imagine when you get to that level of business, you need government influence. And maybe he's doing this just to protect his interests.
Starting point is 01:25:28 That's a weird thing that newspapers actually endorse any kind of- Insane, right? That shit makes no sense. It's supposed to be an unbiased journalistic paper. Yeah. That's weird in itself. So I actually liked the fact that they didn't- None of them should.
Starting point is 01:25:42 Let us read your articles, and by reading your articles we come to a decision. You don't have to tell us what to do. None of us told you. I thought that that was really cool. We made a point to not say who we were voting for. I don't wanna tell you guys what to do. You guys are smart. You can make your own fucking decisions.
Starting point is 01:25:58 Read the fucking articles, and then wait for J.Lo to endorse someone and then do what she does. That's it. It's that simple. Wait for J.Lo to go someone and then do what she does. That's it. It's that simple. That's what I did. Wait for J.Lo to go out there and fake cry. I loved how like the second she was fake crying up there, the Diddy marriage came out.
Starting point is 01:26:13 Cause she was there the night where Diddy shot that dude and then blamed Sean. Yeah. And she rode with Diddy, which is like, you are ride or die. Yo, shout out J.Lo for that one. I mean, it's fucked up, but shout out JLo for that one. But she lied on the stand for Diddy.
Starting point is 01:26:30 Right? He's done that on a sheer terror. Did she take the stand? I thought she didn't want to take the stand because she didn't want to lie. Oh, so maybe she didn't take the stand. Maybe she put the fifth or something like that. But like, she knew what the fuck was going on.
Starting point is 01:26:39 Oh yeah, she knew. And this is the beauty of like, and also the annoyance of like when these celebs get involved in these things You're just like shut the fuck up Shut I don't need you to hear about how toxic Trump is. So he were married now You're just a married to diddy. How long were they married for? Like a while or is it like a year thing that it broke up. I think in Puerto Rican standards very long
Starting point is 01:27:06 I would say it was about 21 years in marriage. With Puerto Rican standards. That's a good... Oh, that is funny. That's a long time. Yo, shout out to J.Lo, man. Have you read Kim Porter's book yet? No. No.
Starting point is 01:27:22 It's not her book. It's her words. It's not her book. It's not her book. It's her book, it's her words. It's not her book. It's her words. Come on. It's not her book. D.D. was banging everyone and their husbands. I believe that. We didn't talk about... Young Thug?
Starting point is 01:27:33 Thug. Oh shit. This is crazy. Yeah. What an insane sentence. I mean, kind of wild. And not shocked that they did it before the election. They knew they were gonna lose this fucking trial. And I think they did it before the election. They knew they were gonna lose this fucking trial.
Starting point is 01:27:46 And I think they did it before the election because they knew that it would be completely squashed by the election. This is a five year long trial, I think the most expensive trial in Georgia history. And they get nothing, they get time served. I know, it's crazy. 15 years probation.
Starting point is 01:28:01 That's nothing. Which I feel like eventually they're gonna take down on good behavior. Does that happen? Yeah. So you can re eventually they're gonna take down on good behavior. Hmm. Does that happen? Yeah Yeah, so you can renegotiate your probation based on good behavior So like you're on good behavior for a few years then you're probation mean What do you know how to do can't smoke can't drink? I think he has to move out of Atlanta Oh, yeah, you can't talk to anyone nice. You can't associate with anybody who has a gang affiliation. He's gonna get so healthy How are they gonna make gonna monitor all of this?
Starting point is 01:28:25 Well, that's probation officers. If you tweet anything, if you post anything, it's like, he really has to live like a fucking Mormon right now until the next 15 years or so. I mean, there are certain things that you could get away with. What I would say is the probation, the, and I obviously I don't know what the fuck jail is like, I'm sure it's fucking horrible, but the idea of like the looming violation of probation over you like every second of I do this, is it gonna. Yeah, but trust me, you way better than me in jail.
Starting point is 01:29:00 1000% He was facing life. Yeah. He was facing life. Yeah. So he won. Yeah. This was a life. Yeah. He was facing life. Yeah, literally. He won. This was a win. Major win.
Starting point is 01:29:09 This is why you need Republicans, man. Yeah, real talk. This is why you need Republicans, bro. They got Kodak out? Yeah, Republicans would have never wasted money. They'd be like, free him, bro. Free Doug. We need more music.
Starting point is 01:29:20 Didn't Trump do something with Lil Wayne, too? Didn't he get him? Wayne, I think, endorsed Trump. Is that what it was? I just have a real quick question about this is Lil Wayne. I wonder if this is just media. I wonder if this is an angle trying to convince us. Like I look at everything that I consume right now. It's like is there a narrative here that people trying to justify a decision? And it very well could be people are taking
Starting point is 01:29:45 the worst parts of his concerts and putting them on the internet to justify him not being the Super Bowl halftime performer. But what is being shown on Twitter, I don't think is indicative of a Super Bowl halftime performance. And I say this to someone who's supported Wayne his entire life. I fucking love Wayne. One of the greatest rappers of all time. Have any of you seen Wayne live? I've seen him live and it was amazing. Okay, so then I'm a maybe this is people hating on the internet And they try it's yeah, how long is this fake news?
Starting point is 01:30:13 It was a while it was when him and Drake were doing that Cotor situation and he would actually body Drake almost every night like I saw two shows and it was okay So that was the shit. He steals the show. Okay, so then then and and what you're seeing now on the internet, you're like, this doesn't match up at all. The audio wasn't good. Like it was it was a little off. So this is some hate and shit. I think so. I think. And who's behind that?
Starting point is 01:30:36 I don't know. It's just maybe not the greatest production. Also, the Kendrick team online is pretty. Who's behind it? I mean, who's behind it, bro? I mean... Who's behind it? If it is the... The Democrat shill, Jay-Z? Nah.
Starting point is 01:30:49 The Kamala supporter, Jay-Z? Jay-Z's been quiet. He ain't... He got his wife out there doing a fucking fake answer! He didn't personally endorse nobody. Jay-Z's on what's happening. Yeah, because he's a criminal. You don't put criminals on stage unless they're the president!
Starting point is 01:30:57 Exactly! He should have backed the criminal. Criminal Now that is a you know fucking 50 cent is a man bro, they ask him non-stop to do They hit me up the Trump's team hit me up and asked if they if I could reach out to 50 to get him to come To the MSG shows and I was like like, I don't know, man. That's, you know, it's a 50 50, you know, March has to beat his own drum. This is the way he does whatever he wants. And he, he always says he doesn't do a religion or politics. And after Trump won, he posted a picture with him and Trump. And he goes, I'm always walking out the ring with the winner or something to that.
Starting point is 01:31:44 Like, you know what I mean? This guy is. He's great. Oh man. There was a great interview with him where he was talking about Nelly's It's Hot In Here. Did you see this? He was on Ebro, and he was talking with Ebro
Starting point is 01:31:58 about Nelly's It's Hot In Here. He's remembering it's hot in here, I'm hanging on all my clothes. And he goes, when I saw that song come out, I was like, oh, this shit is a hit. And then he goes, so they make Lloyd Banks' fire. Which is like, and he blatantly, I couldn't believe he was playing his set.
Starting point is 01:32:15 He goes, so we made Lloyd Banks' fire, which is just another version of it's hot in here. And he blatantly says, he goes, there's been plenty of times throughout my career where like I saw a song that was hot and we did our version of that song was hot and then blew up. Wow.
Starting point is 01:32:30 I couldn't believe an artist was sharing that. Yeah. And it just shows like his, the way he thinks about rap, like he's thinking of it as, he's obviously a creative guy, but like there's a business behind this. McDonald's comes out with a McRib? What's Wendy's up to? It's not far how he came up, because in the mixtape scene,
Starting point is 01:32:51 all he was doing was just taking people's song and then remix it. And then flipping them. I mean, it's smart, but just... I don't think a lot of artists would admit that there was another song that was really hot and they wanted to do a version to compete. So much insecurity. I started this. I made the whole flow. I created everything. Just to be like, look, the shit was fire. And so we did our version. Nah, 50's the man, bro.
Starting point is 01:33:12 Right? He's really the man. We need 50 on a pod. Bro, he scared me when he was going at the guy with the chain. That shit terrified me. Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa. So a guy, a jeweler in New York. Trax NYC. Oh, Trax. Oh my god.
Starting point is 01:33:23 Crazy. I didn't know this was a jeweler in New York. Trax NYC. Oh Trax, oh my God. Crazy. I didn't know this was a thing you can't do. I grew up in suburbs, I did not know it was a violation of blood. Trax a wild boy too. Tell this whole story. Basically 50 Cent gets a brand new paint. Trax is a legendary New York City jeweler.
Starting point is 01:33:39 Legendary, and he has used social media brilliantly to build his brain. He does these things that you can't not look at. It's amazing. and he has used social media brilliantly to build his brand. He does these things that you can't not look at. It's amazing. He'll just take gold bars and he'll hand them out to random people in the street. He'll hide them all over the city.
Starting point is 01:33:53 He'll hide them and say, go find it. Yeah, it's crazy. He's really creative with his usage of social media as advertising for his business. Okay, go on. But this thing terrified me, bro. So basically, 50 Cent comes out with a brand new chain, and he's like, yo, this is my new chain.
Starting point is 01:34:04 He got it made by a specific jeweler that 50 always works with. And then Trax sees the chain and goes, hey guys, 50 has the sickest new chain, so I've made basically a replica that I'm selling and you can buy them now. That's not exactly how it was. Is that how it happened?
Starting point is 01:34:17 No, 50 had an iconic chain. And then Trax was like, yo, remember this 50 chain? We're selling these pieces. It was a Jesus piece. But I don't think 50 was like, yo, here are my chain we're selling these pieces. It was a Jesus piece. But I don't think 50 was like, yo, here are my new chains and he's selling retro. No, no, no, 50 just came out with a chain. It was like-
Starting point is 01:34:31 He's had it for, that's like an old chain. No, it was a cross. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But it's a cross, it's the piece. Yeah, it's a Jesus piece. But it's an old thing. That's like his iconic thing? No, it was a thing that he, I popularized.
Starting point is 01:34:40 But I don't know if he did a brand deal with a jeweler specifically. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, it just, he got one made not by Trax, but just by a different jeweler. I just want to set the record straight for what happened. And then Trax saw it and was like, oh, this chain is fire. It was peace. It was a cross.
Starting point is 01:34:53 And now I'm going to make my own version of it. And he's like, yo, here are the 50 cent crosses. And he used 50 cent in the video. And 50 cent just goes, this was foolish, you're here for my lawyers, or something like that. But then Trax takes a fucking duffel bag of gold and platinum bars and goes to Queens, goes to 50's neighborhood and starts handing them out.
Starting point is 01:35:18 And 50 got so much love in the neighborhood still, did some random street dudes just walk up to him while he's in the neighborhood and go, yo, you gotta get out of here. Wow. 50's not even in the neighborhood still, did some random street dudes just walk up to him while he's in the neighborhood and go, yo, you gotta get outta here. Wow. He's not even in the neighborhood anymore. That's right. But the fact that they knew something,
Starting point is 01:35:30 he's like, yo, you gotta get the fuck outta here. Is Trax the bravest guy in the world? Yeah, you know that he went and fought the watch dude that we hung out with in Ireland? What? Nico, yeah. Watch Nico, yeah. Like, he went out there and they fought.
Starting point is 01:35:43 Why? Because they were beefing over something, and he pulled up and they bought. I'm telling you, this guy tracks as like an underrated self-marketer. Like, in New York City we know him, but outside of New York, put it this way, you know how like now with the popularity of like watches,
Starting point is 01:35:59 all the guys on 46th Street start to really blow up, the watch trading. It became a huge trend and they deserve all their success and it's amazing. But Trax before that was like a viral jewelry guy in an area that we knew in the city. But I guess it wasn't, I don't know, how do you describe it? I'm just saying to make noise being on in the Diamond District is crazy because it's like opening a shoe store and there's a thousand other shoe stores right next to you. So you have to be cutthroat, you have to market yourself better than everybody, you have to
Starting point is 01:36:38 just do something different to stand out. He's been able to stand out. Greg Yuna is another one. Greg makes it beautiful. Great marketing. Great jeweler. another one. Greg makes it beautiful. Great marketing. Moses the jeweler has been phenomenal. He's been phenomenal. And there's one more kid that I was talking to. Oh, fuck. He does some stuff with Moses. Benny? What's his name? Vukom. Vukom. They've been phenomenal. All I'm saying is 50 cent comments on my post. This was foolish.
Starting point is 01:37:03 You've taken a post down. I'm on probation. I'm on young thug time. I'm going is 50 cent comments on my post, this was foolish. You've taken a post out. I'm on probation, I'm on young thug time. I'm going to Malibu, 15 years you'll never hear about me. The best track is that you'll see that he's like, let's go. So even the constant attention said like. Trash has some Vince McMahon. He's like, this is gonna be fun, let's dance.
Starting point is 01:37:19 Terrifying. He had several days to do it cause 50 also said, I'm gonna need that by Monday. Which is the scariest thing. I'm gonna need that by Monday. What does that even, I'm going to need that by Monday, which is the scariest thing. I'm going to need that by Monday. What does that even mean? I'm going to need that by me? What? You're going to need the money.
Starting point is 01:37:30 Because the famous battle that he got into was with the producer Randall Emmett. And it was the greatest reality show that's ever existed. Tell this story. This is fire. Randall Emmett's a producer that was making all these indie movies with 50 Cent and I think he just owed him a few hundred grand that he didn't get. And his wife was one of the chicks on Vanderpump Rules? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:37:51 Okay. So they got into it over something. And they got into it. There was just nothing. 50 laid it all out. It was, but it was nonstop. And it was just like this guy. What, like just dirt about him? Dirt, posting the least flattering photos you've ever seen He's coked up and shit like yeah And then oh then he would actually then post the the the calls of this guy. Hey 50, please stop
Starting point is 01:38:16 Please stop doing this It was crazy. It was pure torture and then he eventually got paid and Yeah, that's terrifying 57 cans cans of them gets a hold of you? Yeah, any one of them. You're done. 50 or Candice, you don't want no problem. You're done. I know Candice tweeted a little video of us saying, we don't want no problems.
Starting point is 01:38:37 Just the fact that she tweeted a video of us, I was like... That was full of fault. You get the notification. I said, no! No! Not Candice. No, Candice you gotta play around with. Don't play around with Candice, you don't play around with 50 Cent. Simple as that.
Starting point is 01:38:55 That should've scared me, bro. Yeah, hope you guys are having a great day. Hope you guys like the results of the election. What about Dr. Umor? What's he doing? Yo, what's up with that? I said we would donate the election. What about Dr. Umor? What was he doing? Yo, what's up with that? I said we would donate the money. So Dr. Umor, you gotta pay him to go on White Podcast. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:39:10 Respect. I love that. And Black Podcast, shit. He gotta get paid. He gotta get paid. But whatever. And so I said I would do it. I was like, yeah, we'll donate the money to the school.
Starting point is 01:39:23 At first. And then. We're waiting for the deal. We never to the school. At first. And then... We're waiting for the deal. We never got the deal. And then he said he only wants to go on if it's just you. Oh, that was right. That's right. Did we ever follow up about... It's not like a gotcha thing. We just want to... I think the perception of it is...
Starting point is 01:39:38 I think he believes that we're going to debate. I don't think that he realizes... We're going to endorse him. Yeah. There's going to be a lot of agreeance. This is like the pyramids. Like just tell me whatever you think about the world. Colonizer, enslaver, and occupier. I just want more of those. Me with all your acronyms, I am so ready to have some fun, but the boys got to be here. It's no fun if it's just... But he thinks that we're gonna gang up on him. I assume that's what the concern is.
Starting point is 01:40:06 Yeah. So Dr. Umar, that is not what's gonna happen. We just wanna have some fun. My brother. Come in peace. My brother and Melanin. My brother in Christ and Melanin. I gotta give his number to Duff. I think Duff could pull it off.

I think he's a huge fan. Let's go with that. What do you think about the Dreidels? Yeah, what does he think about the Dreidels? I have a feeling you'll like them. He probably loves them.
