Starting point is 00:00:54 Daniel Mate What's up? It's complicated That was Dude, that was extraordinary I had no idea You could flow like that
Starting point is 00:01:05 As Lee Kern Listen If you listen to enough UK grime You start to get an idea For you know How those crime rappers do Yeah all the
Starting point is 00:01:15 All the triplets and the like The stop and starts Yeah exactly Immaculately Yeah you know Hey Yeah. What can I say? I love me some drill. I'm a big fan of drilling. You know, I like to slide. The only thing I have roughly in that genre is Dizzy Rascal. I've got the boy in the corner LP, which I very much like.
Starting point is 00:01:37 But I don't know much beyond that in the UK crime scene. I mean, I don't know much either. I can't pretend I do. I mean, my introduction into like UK drill was two old men named Pete and Baz who are like, they're kind of a parody act that ended up being really good. I don't know if they're actually the ones rapping, but it's a fun little story. If you have time, look up Pete and Baz, and you'll be like, wow, this is actually kind of good and kind of fun.
Starting point is 00:02:06 And then through them, I started listening to UK drill. It's the whitest story of all time. I was like, I need white people to first tell me what kind of UK drill to listen to. Look, man, how the hell did I get into, you know, a tribe called Quest, hearing Q-tip on the Beastie Boys get it together. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:24 How the hell did I get into Run DMC or rap in the first place? How did most white people get into it? Aerosmith, you know? That's true. It's true. It's the shoehorn for our little prejudiced, ignorant brains. Hey, what can I say? What can you say?
Starting point is 00:02:37 But let me ask you a question. How can I see the, because in my chat here on the stream yard, I'm not seeing the public comments and I would like to be able to. I'm only seeing our private chat. Do you know, are you seeing the comments? Oh. No, I am seeing the comments. You're not seeing the comments?
Starting point is 00:02:54 Not in stream yard, no. Maybe, maybe I'm going to... Do I have to be a co-host or something?

So bear with us while we realize that we don't know what the fuck we're doing. Okay. We don't know what we're doing.
Starting point is 00:03:13 But if you go to YouTube, you can see the comments as they go on. Yeah, but then I'm looking at your mouth on a kind of delay. I have to see myself too. Yeah. Our producer is giving me an instruction that I don't know how to, it doesn't, I don't know. On the far right, there's a comments button on the top. No, I don't think there is for him because he's got to have a special, he's got to have a special fucking permissions or whatever.

You know, I've never done a live stream about this particular subject. I've done a few live streams before. My wife does a lot of, my wife does a lot of live streams. And your wife.
Starting point is 00:06:32 My wife. So every time I watch a live stream, I feel like most of what it is is silence. I don't know, Daniel, you and I, we're both old, right? Some of us are older than others. yeah true but i think you know i would say you see this right here you see this true that is true but i'm right now i have oh yeah look at that look at yeah get in there but you're a silver fox though you're you know you're like it works with you right now it's my my mustache is getting a little
Starting point is 00:07:04 salt and peppering and i don't like it yeah um but uh yeah so you know i i i don't want to i don't want to do what all the other streamers do you know and just like sit there and silence uh but at the same time one of the reasons that i wanted to do this episode as a live stream is because i'm going out of town for the next few days and i didn't want people to be without content so yeah i mean listen well that's horrible got to stuff that content whole exactly the piggy's got to feed uh you're uh you know just a bunch of voracious hogs who just need to numb numb numb numb and so we wanted to give you some slop to feed on and that's what this episode is all about so let's let's see just kind of go through some of the like missed things like every episode that
Starting point is 00:07:55 we do I have like an idea of what I want and then we end up just having a really great conversation and getting to a few things yeah so I have this like backlog of shit it's an embarrassment of riffage yeah exactly perfectly put it is an embarrassment of riffage and so now I have an embarrassment of riches of things we have not played. So I think I wanted to play one of the reactions that we missed out on on last week's episode with the Emma Vigland was people who were like the libs who were kind of going crazy over you know people being mad at Biden. And one of the like subsections of that is libs who are mad at macklemore. for making a song and so I just want to play a section from his song Hins Hall that was I think the only like
Starting point is 00:08:57 major artists to release anything that I would consider in the realm of protest song about genocide has there been anyone else I don't think so yeah no and in my world it's the best thing he's ever done but yeah yeah I mean to be honest I don't I don't really even know the other shit that he's done. I mean, I know he did that song about a thrift shop. Thrift shop, and he did another song about homophobia that was, you know, had a good message. Well, at least it had a good message. But I wanted to play a little bit of Hinshall, and this is the moment that set the liberals off.
Starting point is 00:09:36 College and Gaza and every mosque pushing everyone in the ruff and dropping bombs. The blood is on your hands biting. We can see it all. fuck no i'm not voting for you in the fall and decided you can't twist um excuse me mr macklemore mr more mr more how about have you considered mackling less what the hell man people are so mad about this shit it's so great like the amount of people who are just like listen i'm all for the message of this song which is about you know
Starting point is 00:10:13 how a genocide is happening. But as soon as you bring our complicity as American electorate into this, I got it. I got to peace out. This is bullshit. You do not threaten the leader of the free world with the withdrawal of your complicit support for his policies in a democracy where he represents you. You just don't do that. It's not done, sweetie. You don't do that. It's number one, it's rude. Number two, Um, ever heard of Trump? Number three, wow, big yikes. And yeah, so people are like freaking out. There was this one guy who I love, uh, I just want to play a little bit of his. I don't know who he is, so I feel a little bad like kind of, um, you know, talking shit.
Starting point is 00:11:04 Uh, but at the same time, just I'm going to play a little bit of his video and then I'm going to play a collection of the other videos he's made. Um, just because. It is very, very funny to me. All right, here we go. So this is this guy. McElmore, the rapper, just released a new song in which he says Joe Biden has blood on his hands and then says he will not be voting for Joe Biden this fall. I guess McElmore doesn't care if American women lose their rights or if LGBTQ people lose their right to,
Starting point is 00:11:43 or if American elderly people lose their social security benefits or if America three days later I hope he reconsiders this position and puts out a statement denouncing what he said in his song because you know what's funny about that selfish he wanted that three days later a little interlude oh no I add I added oh you I'm so sorry I thought he was trying to make the point there's so many more examples I could give you okay no Okay, well done. Well done. Well done. Well done. Okay. No, I added that because he literally goes on for three days. It's just like, just every single thing in which you could, you know, just kind of rehash the Trump years, just being like, oh, I guess you want all of these things to happen. Did he mention Putin, didn't he mention Putin taking over America and shutting down the power grid in Minnesota? Oh, I'm sure he did. At some point, I just kind of like spaced out and a little song started playing in my head. But yeah, like he is, you know, he's doing the thing where you,
Starting point is 00:12:43 you have to put up, you know, whatever you can in terms of Trump's, the consequences of a Trump second term against a genocide. So that means you have to list a lot of things. Yes. You know what mean? Yeah. Vote boo-who no matter you who. Yeah, exactly. But then someone like, so when you go on like TikTok and you go on someone's profile and you just scroll up, you get the first like two seconds of their content and someone did that for him and uh if you want to have like a a stroke real rapidly let's this is how you do it oh boy donald trump just bad news they're a boy it has just been revealed donald trump is oh boy mad tani has a new excuse oh boy mar maga world is not oh boy crazy donald trump so rudy juliani
Starting point is 00:13:42 To the Republican Party, big news, Donald. It has just been revealed that, oh boy, here's a big news. Donald Trump's big news, a federal whole boy, Donald. This is crazy. Fox, big news, the FBI. Oh boy, Donald Trump. Big news, Donald. You know what it reminds me of?
Starting point is 00:14:06 What? Have you seen Frankie, what's his last name? The Newfoundland weather guy? Oh, yes. Yeah, yeah, the autistic kid. Big storm coming to Halifax, Nova Scotia. Big storm for Halifax, Nova Scotia. But that guy is lovely.
Starting point is 00:14:29 This guy. Yeah. This guy, I mean, listen, he's, I'm glad that he's going out there, given the pig news to all the pigies out there. I think he's saying big news, but it sounds like he's just every big news. Yeah, so, you know, listen, to the TikTok kids are getting the news about Donald Trump. This is not unimportant. People should get news about all sorts of things, but just you can tell the kind of, I would say, the heavily blue magapilled nature of his content and his, yes, the blue and on.
Starting point is 00:15:12 fucking belief system there because oh my god dude yeah well what and what would they do without big news from trump they have nothing else because they're certainly not going to focus on the people actually in power right now who they told us we had to elect because big news about trump yeah yeah exactly exactly i mean you know uh i remember in 2020 i was just like all i want to do is vote for the Adults in the room, you know? That's what I want. I just want adults in the room and now it's 2024. I'm like, oh, fuck, the adults in the room are genocidal maniacs. I, uh, shit, I wish I'd known that. Wish I knew that. But I didn't. I mean, the amount of like giving the benefit of the doubt to any presidential candidate who has not been president, I understand completely when someone is not, you know, it's even like Trump in 2016, the people voted for him. I remember. thinking like what are you doing this guy is like clearly insane and also clearly like a charlatan like you're voting for you're voting for a guy who is not going to do anything that he says he's going to do and it's just an asshole um but you know like i still was like well he's never been
Starting point is 00:16:31 president and he's going against hillary clinton who you know also has never been president but has been a career politician who is going to do the thing she says she's going to do and that's the problem yes and those are not good um and so like you know it's uh so when people you know if you voted for Biden in 2020 you don't have to feel bad you didn't you didn't do you didn't do anything wrong uh but we it just we you were wrong I was and if you didn't we're all wrong you don't have to feel bad either in fact no one should ever feel bad about who they vote or don't vote for I think that's my fucking philosophy of voting no whatever you do in that booth doesn't much matter anyway.
Starting point is 00:17:14 That's not to say that elections don't have some significance or that you shouldn't make a serious decision for yourself, whatever, but the voting shaming of what any individual voter does. And then put that, you know, and then the fact that future events tend to bear out that whatever you're told is the, you know, inescapable reason you must vote for this particular person it always turns out to be just bullshit.
Starting point is 00:17:41 I mean, the Democrats have been pulling this since the 90s, the lesser of two evils business. And, you know, I've heard the argument made that when the Democrats are in power, they can get more evil actually done because it's under the guise of a kind or gentler party. You know, whereas when they're in the opposition seat, they have to find something to oppose. So they'll oppose the Republicans' first impulses. So it was worst impulses.
Starting point is 00:18:07 So it was under Clinton that the, telecommunications bill was passed, for instance, and NAFTA and all that shit. I'm not saying vote Republican. I'm just saying fuck anyone who tells you who to vote for. Yeah. And listen, you know, and we've said this before on the podcast a few times. This idea of like voting for the lesser of two evils is, I mean, it's understandable on its face, but you, you can't, you have to be less evil. That's right.
Starting point is 00:18:34 Like, that is like a requirement. Once you're president, you actually have to do something less. than the opposition and if you don't in fact if you do something more evil you can't just be like well I'm voting for lesser of two evils it's like this is you know I saw a nice little meme of both Trump and Biden as like little vermin it was the lesser of two weevils yeah weevils lesser of two weevils love a pun you know I feel like you're someone who you you You're not a dad, but you have probably more like dad jokes just like your brain is wired for them in a way that makes me, you know, kind of turn into a Jewish mother and ask you, when are you going to have a family?
Starting point is 00:19:22 Yeah, well, when are you going to settle down? Yeah, what I'm what I'm counting on, it's been a while since I got tested, but I'm counting on that there's a correlation between like puns per minute and like sperm count and motility because I would like to be a dad, you know. oh well that's yeah i'm i'm getting up there in age but that it didn't stop paul mccartney and mcgaggar and all those blokes yeah i think like in terms of age i i don't know if we have to worry too much about it we age you know i think yeah it seems like you can be old as fuck as a dude and still i mean what was it like robert denierro or something just had another kid and he's like you've got to be 300 years old that dude's old as fuck he's way too old I mean, I feel for the, the women who have, I feel for the women who have to, well, maybe whatever.
Starting point is 00:20:15 I guess guys like that, there's advantages to being with them. But anyway. Yeah, I mean, and listen, the hard part's over. You had sex with Robert De Niro as an 80-year-old man. And he was probably grunting about Trump the whole time. Yeah, I fucking hate him. What you're going to do? Yeah, but, you know.
Starting point is 00:20:33 I'm going to punch him in the fucking face. I'm going to punch him in the face. love Robert De Niro he can do no wrong he's a great guy I think I don't know I never met him so what else is going on let's see let's let's look at some of these comments what are people saying about stuff people are typing too much how the fuck does anyone do this like you ever watch like like Hassan Piker's stream that dude has so many fucking like guys who watch it that you it just the fucking the comments just go like that and I'm like this is
Starting point is 00:21:07 this is incredible does he read them all out no he doesn't I think he just ignores him that's probably what we should do I'm just kidding guys keep making them comments it's probably a place for people to blow off steam and talk to each other this isn't just about us it's about a community and you know that's true people a place to to riff themselves why why should we take up all the oxygen but then also sometimes people are paying us for the privilege of that's true I love these super chats maybe we should we can read some out on screen Yeah, let's read them out.
Starting point is 00:21:40 You know, like someone said something. Khalid H wrote, love you guys. Keep it up, free Palestine. Keep it up. Thank you. Well, as we get older, that's increasingly hard to do. It's really not easy to keep it up. The wonders of modern medicine, but yuck, yuck, yuck.
Starting point is 00:21:56 And then also just generalize anxiety. I mean, you can be a young guy and have problems keeping it up. Yeah, or yeah, just general alienation from this fucked up world. Mm-hmm. I mean, it's, you know, listen, there's a lot of reasons why erectile dysfunction. Now I'm just going to drop the pretense that we're doing a double entendre. I'm just going to talk about erectile dysfunction. Listen, it's normal. It's so normal that it's, is it really dysfunction if everybody, you know, has it?
Starting point is 00:22:25 You know, and flacidity is a spectrum, actually. That's so true. Which brings us to our next sponsor. No, I'm kidding. Oh, yes. hers or hymns hymns actually that's an interesting story that would be a great sponsor for uh this podcast because i believe the CEO of of hymns or the owner of hymns or whatever um actually went on record um you know like actually like released a statement about the israel you know uh genocide
Starting point is 00:23:06 Adam can you leave that comment from Michelle up Michelle you need to see some good parodies of that UN shredder incident have you checked out our latest episode with Emma Viglin from the other day because that's right went we shredded that incident we shredded it to little bits and shredded dog someone in the comments asked me if I knew that I'm I don't show up on Twitter searches I do know that I'm I think I'm being shadow band I don't yeah you don't I don't care enough to find out why or how to reverse it but maybe I could report it, I guess.
Starting point is 00:23:38 It's such a weird thing, too, because it's just like, I don't really have that issue with other, like, people on Twitter. It's just you. Every time I try to tag you, I just have to write out your full fucking name. It's insane. I know. What did I do? Yeah, what did you?
Starting point is 00:23:57 You didn't do nothing. It's very specific. I'm the least controversial matter. Yeah, exactly. You're the most chill matty. Of all the mattoes, you know, you on Twitter, you're not even yelling at people. I've never had the government of Ukraine get me banned from an international journalism conference like my brother has. That's crazy. He got banned?
Starting point is 00:24:28 Yeah, at the request of Mrs. Zelenskaya. Oh, wow. I'm trying to find, you know, this, the information that I was talking about earlier. This is like the CEO of Hymns and hers, Andrew Dudum, has praised anti-Israel student protesters on college campuses and expressed his eagerness to hire them. So because of that, of course, Hasbara machine started like going, you know, nuts on him and just talking mad shit. and like doing the thing you know where they like post people you know they'll post a stock price and they'll be like you know they'll be a little dip in it and be like oh that's what you get when you support Hamas like everyone's just like going after this guy and all he did was be like
Starting point is 00:25:21 I am happy to hire people who are going to be blacklisted because of your fascist tactics of destroying anybody who disagrees with the state of Israel and their massive crime against humanity and it's just like you know the like the fact that that's a threat to people yeah I mean the fact that he has a list that is not a blacklist yeah yeah the fact that he's like I will not participate in the blacklisting of students yeah it is uh you know these people are scumbags and uh speaking of uh blacklist actually um did you know there's a reverse canary mission no So, if you don't know Canary Mission, Canary Mission is like a website that is, it like logs student activists, professors, and anyone anti-Israel, basically.
Starting point is 00:26:21 And it does this, you know, really neat little trick where it'll put, like, some student you've never heard of. And I'll put their profile next to, like, David Duke. So you'll think, oh, wow, if you ever, like, Google search them. then you will see their profile come up. You know, it's basically fucks with their SEO to like, to make them into an anti-Semite for any, you know, potential job. Where the fuck am I on this? I'm not in the Canary Mission list.
Starting point is 00:26:48 I know what in my family is. What's going on? Let me, well, I mean, it could be. I mean, I've actually never searched for you on Canary Mission. No, I'm not there. I'm searching right now. Oh, shit. In fact, they all just seem to have like, like people who are,
Starting point is 00:27:04 not particularly public, you know? Well, that's, to see, that's the whole thing. And who are members of JVP and who have publicly supported BDS. Like, it's really going after the grassroots. That's, yes. And that is the whole, that's the whole point is like, you're, it's not about, because anyone I think with a public platform can then go after Canary Mission. And also, they're not going to, you know, it's like, you can, you can do some damage,
Starting point is 00:27:31 but that's not really the point of it. Because there are much bigger smear groups out there for, for your celebrities who, you know, criticize Israel. Like, you know, the way Jonathan Glazer, you know, did his speech and then had fucking op-ed after op-ed written about how actually he is bad and doing anti-Semitism. But if for this, this is about. Ben Shapiro being like, he hates Jews so much, he didn't put any of them in his movie when that was the fucking point. That's the whole point of the fucking movie. Oh, God. But yeah, this is like about trying to destroy students.
Starting point is 00:28:11 This is about trying to destroy people who don't have a public platform, who are not public personalities or, you know, they are just people who decided to do activism. And it's a way of intimidating people out of like this line of, you know, of activism where it's like, no, no, no, you don't want to fuck with Israel. because we will make sure you never work at any job like that's it's like incredibly insidious you better stop with those anti-semitic calumnies about jews controlling the world and being a secret yeah right that run the economy industry finance uh and Hollywood and entertainment and the legal
Starting point is 00:28:54 profession because if you don't we just snap our working fingers yes and you disappear exactly yeah yeah That's, I mean, oh, God, it's just the amount of actual anti-Semitism done by Jews trying to stop anti-Semitism is enough to make you have a seizure. But there's a thing called Reverse Canary Mission, and you can, you can just, it's basically the same thing, but you can look up. I've never tried. I've never tried. Reverse can't. What did you say? What did I miss?
Starting point is 00:29:30 No, I'm just reverse canary, you know, imagine. some kind of sex position reverse canary mission reverse canary when you're in the coal mine and you fuck um so yeah uh so yeah we can look people up i mean let's see let's see who's around let's uh what's what's what's amy schumer up to let's see if she's up in here amy the schum there's an abhorrently funny unfunny it's an importantly funny uncomedian an importantly unfunny comedian amy schumer has frequently shared post disagreeing with calls for a ceasefire and continuously demonize Palestinians and advocates with baseless claims and Zionist rhetoric. Yes.
Starting point is 00:30:07 Yeah, that's right. She also called Gazins rapists. Who is Amy Schumer? American comedian actress and Zionist. Yeah, that's true. Yeah, so it just, it shares, you know, her post. This was, you know, her big post that she did, like, you know, I think it was in October with just, Ghazans raped Jewish girls only in self-defense, proud of our rapist martyrs.
Starting point is 00:30:37 It's just killing kids for dignity. I mean, this is just like, you know, just a bunch of horrid stereotypes. And also, at this point in which she was releasing it, she was clearly, it was, you know, it was the, this campaign of manufacturing consent, not just for the invasion of Gaza, which we all it was going to happen um it was for let us be as brutal as we need to be that's right and so that that is uh you know just allowing people to turn off the part of their brain that says like killing innocent people is wrong um yeah so this is this is a fun little website i found who's who should we look up here let's see who's on here jerry signbell name
Starting point is 00:31:24 oh that's jerry so oh there he's got you hear some anti-semit walked out on him I heard I heard every time a comedian walks someone it's because of anti-semitism every time you always say that in the comedy community every time a comedian tries to do crowd work and someone gives a lame answer it's anti-semitism yeah that's right hey where are you from Palestine I've never heard of it where are you going let's see Jerry Seinfeld signed the no hostage left behind open letter thanking president Joe Biden, who has directly enabled the current ethnic cleansing campaign in the Gaza Strip in West Bank. Jerry Seinfeld also signed an open letter by the creative community for peace,
Starting point is 00:32:10 asserting Israel's right to defend itself, justifying the murder of tens of thousands of Palestinians. They're certainly creative about the definition of peace. Yeah, well, listen, they are very creative when it comes to peace. Peace is when you do apartheid officially. Yeah, see, he also attended an Israeli settlement fantasy camp in the West Bank. where Jerry and the IDF shot at targets of Palestinians and took pictures, yeah. Oh, wow. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:35 See, I didn't, oh, yeah, I did see this. Look at it. What's the deal with children being alive? Yeah. He's really supporting. I mean, listen, this is, I like that, I like people that people are doing this because. It's not genocide. Oh, it's genocide, Jerry.
Starting point is 00:32:58 Oh. Oh, it is. Big time. I think I was doing Al Pacino there, but you got it. Oh, yeah. It's genocide. Speaking of which, oh, maybe I should have looked up Michael Richards on there. I don't think he's on there.
Starting point is 00:33:11 Listen, Michael Richards is kind of, he's been, he's been keeping his head low ever since the whole thing. Yeah. You know, ever since that thing. I had a very, I saw a very strange tableau. I tuned into the John Mullaney. Everyone's in LA. Netflix thing a few nights ago. I didn't quite get the stick, you know, Richard Kind is funny as the emcee, but I just didn't quite get the vibe. But then there's like Jerry Seinfeld sitting
Starting point is 00:33:37 on a couch, John Mullaney, some guy from some, uh, nonprofit Oregon, L.A., and Stavros Halkius from, uh, formerly of Comptown. Stav is sitting there and like trying to vibe with them or whatever. And I like Jerry Seinfeld vibe and Stah's vibe, you couldn't imagine. It's just an atrocious chemistry. you know no way there's no way jerry's going to understand a word stuff says there's just no there's no riff chemistry at all i mean jerry seinfeld has never been a guy who i've ever seen riff well with people no including his show comedians and cars getting coffee like that show was mostly just waiting for you know a cool car and then they would have a conversation with a
Starting point is 00:34:26 a comedian and it would he just doesn't vibe no he doesn't vibe and and stav does and stav's one of the funniest guys on the planet he's great a vibe he's nothing but vibe yeah get stasi on the show we need to get stavi on this show yeah we got to get he's one of these comedians who laughs at his own jokes and it's one of the greatest things about him like normally you hate a comedian who's just giggling at his own jokes but with stav it's like it makes it like 10 times funnier or not that it needs to be 10 times very but it really enhances it it yeah and it's it's just uh you got a great laugh and also he again he's someone who can riff with people like he yes and's like a motherfucker yes and uh that's it's it's uh it's very funny
Starting point is 00:35:08 i just like the you know the attempt at like okay we're gonna you know we're gonna put jerry on there and then get get some scrappy young comer to come and just sit on stage and then they can tell the story that they were on stage with Jerry forever Honestly, the transition that he has made in his career from being, you know, one of the guys on Comptown to sort of more mainstream, like, stand-up comedian is beautiful. It's one of the most beautiful things in the world. I wanted to play something else for us. We talked a little bit about the son of Hamas. and i wanted to watch some of that son of hummus us
Starting point is 00:35:59 yeah son of hummus us literally yeah um thanks dora oh here we go yeah daniel so sexy you guys i've just i'm put out there you can say that about me too yeah you could you really could if you want i say it i mean you don't have to i don't even care i'm already married and i have a baby so stop trying to break up my marriage but if you want to say it I'm okay with that Matt is so sexy I'll just
Starting point is 00:36:29 thank you thank you so far the only person who has said it is me just now fuck you Adam all right all right
Starting point is 00:36:46 let's do a little sexy the if I do say so myself sexy Yeah. If I do say so myself, I am pretty fly. Okay. So, oh, there we go. I'm back. Let's do a little Son of Hamas. The, I'm just going to keep calling him. Son of Hamas went on Pierce Morgan and Abby Martin was there to debate. And this was his second appearance in about a week because the previous week he was on with, what's her name? Rahma? Is that her name? An Egyptian. journalist. And it was a very different vibe. But, you know, Rachma was just, she was just sitting there like, like just, you could see on her face that she couldn't believe she was debating this clown. And the way Pierce Morgan was grilling her about these ridiculous questions that are just so tired at this point, it's all he's capable of uttering to people like her.
Starting point is 00:37:46 She just kind of almost tuned out or checked out. And she was like, Like, literally, she said, I can't believe we're still having this conversation. Like, there was a kind of bewildered, not defeatedness, but a certain just absolute mystification, you know, which is a totally valid response. Abby took a very different tack. Yes, yes. And, you know, yeah, I think there's a few different responses. Francesca actually was almost on, I think, that episode. And I remember thinking, like, the, the tack that Abby took or that anyone would, it's like everyone has a different way of dealing with that guy.
Starting point is 00:38:30 Francesca would have just laughed, but the entire time. I mean, the shit is wild. But, like, I love what Abby did because it was, I mean, it was an actual takedown from someone who knows this particular has bars. I mean, it's hard to, honestly, like, look, Sasser Baron Cohen is a fervent Zionist. he's a prick. But he's very funny and it would have been very hard for me to keep a straight face while interviewing him as committed to this bit as he was. He's incredibly committed. So let's play a little bit of Abby. Just sorry, just that thumbnail right there. It's kind of amazing. Like this is he's someone who's, I don't know if there's a word for like opposite of photogenic.
Starting point is 00:39:19 Like, he has, every time you pause on a frame of him, it's hilarious. All right, Matt, Mossab Stair Challenge. Can we both hold that stare for like 20 seconds, right at the camera? Okay. Just right at the camera. Actually at the camera, okay? Here we go. Okay.
Starting point is 00:39:49 sorry you win you are not fit to be a mother all right here let's let's play him mosab is the Palestinian who hates Palestinians he's he's developed a lucrative career being able to lie about basic facts about this conflict and so when he says Palestinians are Hamas what he really means is all Arabs and all Muslims in fact I've seen that plain as day in his social media and talks. He thinks that all Muslims are terrorists. He is actually credited to jailing the Palestinian Mandela. Marwan Bargudi. This is a guy who he put in prison 20 years ago, who was marching side by side with Israeli peace activists denouncing Hamas killing civilians. Marmon Bargudi is the most popular, unifying figure in Palestinian society. He would resoundingly win in an election against Hamas.
Starting point is 00:40:39 So again, I mean, when we're looking at someone who's worked for Israeli intelligence, who spouts the same rhetoric as Israelis who say Hamas, but what they really mean is all Palestinians, I mean, it's really hard to debate someone on the fundamental reality and the principles of, you know, the facts of this conflict. Well, you know, this is Abby's desperate attempt to discredit me. I am a man of the field. I fought against Hamas as part of intelligence, legitimate intelligence organizations. I am a man of the field, fields of gold among the fields of barley.
Starting point is 00:41:13 in suicide bomb and attacks. You remember me. So Abby today want me for some reason to apologize for saving human life. My life. It's like the dude is so boreat coded. It's insane. Saving human life. Very nice.
Starting point is 00:41:38 All right. Truth. challenges her convenient truth. Abby does not have the authority. She's just a self-appointed, low-grade journalist. How can you be a journalist, and you call this a genocide, ethnic cleansing? And she just keeps repeating ethnic cleansing,
Starting point is 00:42:00 genocide, colonialism, etc. None of it is rare, including Palestine. It's all in your head. How can you free it? It was never there. It's just a colonial entity. colonial entity and some people choose to make it into a national identity. And this parrot has been just repeating Hamas propaganda.
Starting point is 00:42:21 Marwan Bergotti that she's talking about him, she never met him. I knew Marwan before he got to power. He's a criminal. He killed five people. He has blood on his hands. He cheated on his wife. He has a secret son that he never revealed it to the public. Of course, I can't criticize him.
Starting point is 00:42:39 And I can't criticize all the criminal. that I know personally. There is no such a thing as Palestine. It's about time to retire, find a different job. You're not a journalist. You don't qualify even to be a mother. Wow. He just has no self-control.
Starting point is 00:42:56 Like, he's like a fucking, he's like that fucking, you know, spring-loaded machine gun in Walter White's truck in the finale of breaking back. Just back and forth spring. until it just, you know, runs out of, I mean, and just, you know. I just, I... And it shoots him.
Starting point is 00:43:18 When he went was like, Bargutti is, you know, he is a criminal. You know, he has killed five people. He cheats on his wife. He borrowed a power tool and did not return it within the stipulated two-month period. Of course, I can criticize him. He went to a mattress store and ripped off the label that said do not rip off he rips off label the dude the dude the answer is going he has a secret son this it sounds like a kendrick disc track of drake like after a while you're just like is he
Starting point is 00:43:54 just is he going to call him a pedophile and stuff too because like that's i think where this is going and just watching abby's face while this is happening where she's trying that to crack up oh it's so beautiful oh god Someone's telling me to turn my mic down, but I don't answer to anyone but producer Adam Levin. If Adam tells me to turn it down, I will. I turned it down earlier. Maybe it's that if I'm going to yell, I need to. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:20 Yeah, you got to do mic technique. Back here. That's how it goes. Microphone check. One, two. What is this? The five foot assassin with the rough neck business. Name that tune, chat.
Starting point is 00:44:35 Name that tune. If you name it, you get a thousand. has borough bucks you get a thousand uh shekels circa the year uh Israeli shekels circa the year 2068 which at that point I'm I'm counting on will be worth very little I unless except as collector's items yes yes yes yes we will every oh God that was not that was not Wu-Tang someone else got it do you ever um I don't know like future trip about the idea of that you know one day when um he doesn't wash his hands after he make number two he does not tip the full you guys can we could we could read these in the
Starting point is 00:45:26 accent yeah he does not tip for 20% and worst of all he left the seat up yeah i followed him on Twitter. He did not follow me back. I've been waiting and waiting. His content. His content is extremely inconsistent. I preferred his early work. I joined his Patreon and I wait every week for a bonus Patreon exclusive episode and I get nothing. He is criminal. I went to www. patreon.com slash bad has barra and still no bonus content i want to be abundantly clear this is not some sort of arab accent this is a this is a mozab son of hamas accent all right very specific i don't even
Starting point is 00:46:30 know what an arab accent sounds like i'm just going off this guy yeah i i i had no idea i listen i you You heard me attempting to do British up on the top of the show. Half of you were like, is this Australian? Could be. I don't know. Yeah. I'm not good at accents. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:46:51 Someone wrote, I'm Arab and I approve. Well, that's all I need. All I need is one person. That's a fungible token right there. That is a fungible token. I love that. So much. That is so brilliant.
Starting point is 00:47:04 Oh, man. But, yeah, Abby, like, Abby knowing his history, I think, is one of the great things about that. And, you know, again, we need to do an actual, like, full episode deep dive into Abby because, into Abby, with Abby into Masab. And, you know, just because he is one of those guys where, like, you know, when I've in the past talked about the Hezbara being, like, good. um you know uh like at one point i would say that at least the spokespeople who were doing PR for Israel were convincing you know like like when they spoke they seemed official it's like one of the reasons that like uh like certain like for example this guy uh destiny who has been made himself like the mantle of uh he's now the has been has been
Starting point is 00:48:03 Baris, the official has Baris of Twitch. Or as I call him, density. Yeah, density. He's like, oh, by the way, I think we're live on Twitch. And I think part of being a streamer is starting wars with other streamers. So I just started a Twitch account. And it's official. I'm calling you out, motherfucker.
Starting point is 00:48:24 Fuck you, density. Eat a dick. Can I do that? Do we have to be gamers, though? Don't you have to be a gamer to comment about politics on Twitch? I think you do. Well, you know what? Spend a few years gaming.
Starting point is 00:48:36 Fuck yeah, motherfuckers. Oh. Shake this out. Is that a Switch, bro? Yeah. Is that a Switch? You got Switch. Playing Hades.
Starting point is 00:48:46 Oh, man, I want to switch so bad. Oh, I could buy one, but I have a kid. Every time I want to buy something, I go, but I'm a dad. I am a 48-year-old childless man who lives alone and plays Nintendo Switch. That's right, folks. That's a lot. that's that's a modern man um but yeah no like people like this guy uh density uh is they are impressed by how shiny the hesbarah is like the hesbarah works because it was like um you know where are you
Starting point is 00:49:23 getting your PR from if you're hearing anything about you know Palestinian human rights you were getting it from exclusively from either like Arab quote unquote outlets like Al Jazeera or like democracy now and you know it's Amy Goodman with the you know clearing her throat and then saying something about Israel and then asking a guest asking a guest to talk about yes yes and listen Amy Goodman is a fucking G she doing great work but it's not shiny and then you look at the Hezbarra from you know, the Zionist side, and it's like, it looks official.
Starting point is 00:50:02 I mean, it looks laminated, you know what I mean? And so even their Hezbaris, their PR people, seemed legitimate, you know? But Mossab is a perfect example of somebody who's just like the most, like, mask off. Like, oh, Jesus, this is not having the effects that you, like, and people were sharing it. People like Zionist, like Twitter accounts, like other Hasbarus were sharing it like, look at this absolute destruction of Abby Martin. And it's just him telling her that she's not fit to be a mother. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:42 I mean, look, conservative punditry in general has gone downhill from the days of William F. Buckley Jr. And an Israeli propaganda. I remember Abba Abin and, you know, like these really erudite, international seeming, reasonable sounding people. uh yeah even in the days of you know like mark regev uh right and michael oren like these ambassadors who who had a kind of um yeah just kind of solemn slickness to them uh yes the now everyone is either completely psychotic or just so frivolous as to be uh or hysterical as to just be transparently um
Starting point is 00:51:27 incredible literally right you know the credibility is so thin and you know and it's pretty much exclusively due to the like israeli government's own actions and like they they have made they've made it impossible to explain away in a way that doesn't sound like propaganda whereas before it sounded reasonable you know i mean you know it sounded reasonable to someone who wanted to believe, um, which was, is like most people in the West. Like you, you don't want to believe this incredibly on the nose dramatic irony of like the state that was born out of, uh, the atrocities of the Holocaust is committing a Holocaust. Yeah. Like it's just to it's just, uh, you just, uh, you just don't want to believe that. And, um, you know, so there was a time in which
Starting point is 00:52:19 it was something that if you wanted to believe, you could believe it. Uh, and now it's just, It's insane. In fact, I want to play something again from, this is from Pierce Morgan. Pierce Morgan, listen, he's the problem with Pierce Morgan is he's the most like, tea and crumpit looking motherfucker I've ever seen. But when he is talking about this particular subject, there is something I get from him, is at least a little bit of like, you know, I don't know, it's like a little bit of empathy. Like, you actually, it does, it doesn't seem completely disingenuous or completely cynical.
Starting point is 00:53:07 Whereas, like, I do believe he pretty much exists just for conflict porn. Yeah, and the subtext always is, no, but, but I have to push back on this, Mr. Hasbarus. Why are you making it so difficult for me to defend everything you do? Right. Right. Why go to that extreme when it makes it so inconvenient for me when I'm trying to dismiss and dehumanize pro-Palestinian guests? Why would you do that? This looks very bad. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, like, he for sure is someone who wants to believe, but also, yeah. I mean, you know, some people were, made a comment like now he's just a contrarian dickhead listen it could be i don't fucking know this guy all right he's he he came to the united states for a hot minute to replace larry king and everyone was like boo throw him in the sea and then we did and he had to swim back uh to that little island
Starting point is 00:54:10 of sad people yeah he had to find one of their many peers uh yeah exactly uh and so uh i you know i'm not I'm not going to sit here and defend him as being like a secret comrade or whatnot. But I will say, at the very least, you know, the least you can ask for any of these, you know, media ghouls is for them to at least push back slightly. And the fact that he does that at all is a huge deal. Oh, look, we got a 25 loving bad Hasbara today. Matt and Daniel are a perfect. duo with bad has barra arriving on twitch these streamers may be great guests for future shows
Starting point is 00:54:56 hasan caroline kwan gremlo central committee denims and rat bone i'm a fan of his he's on i've seen him on instagram i'm not on twitch myself but he makes very good videos he's the dude with like kind of big like sort of shoulder length hair and a beard and he does really good reaction videos and is quite funny. Oh, does he look like Zach Gallifinacus? Exactly. Yeah, yeah, I've seen him. He's good.
Starting point is 00:55:27 I like it. Maybe I'll write to him to see if we can get him on. Yeah, that would be sick. Yeah, I don't, you know, like, Twitch is very new and foreign to me, so, you know, I don't necessarily know how exactly it would work. But I guess whenever we do a live stream, we'll also do it on Twitch. That's how it'll work. And then we'll, you know, I'll keep trying to start fights with streamers. dreamers. Fuck you. Uh, destiny. That's the only one I know. Mr. Borelli. Yeah. Mr. Baudicelli.
Starting point is 00:56:00 Mr. Feminucci. Mr. Spaghetti meatball. Mr. Bulli. Mr. Bollini. Mr. Bouscemi. Mr. Bouskemi. It's just, Oh, all right. Mr. Bernardo Burtleucci, we can do this forever. Mr. Bunga Bunga songs. Mr. Bungle. Yeah, Mr. Bungle. There we go. So, yeah, I wanted to play, this is a little bit from Pierce versus Avi Hyman.
Starting point is 00:56:39 Someone's saying, sorry, someone's saying get Norm on. And I've thought about this. I'm friendly with Norm. I would love to have Norm on. The problem is, and this. I love Norm to death, but this is a show where we riff, and Norm's riffs are often 20 minutes long, they're kind of prescripted. He's already workshopped them on and it just, but then again, it's Norm. So could we adjust? Sure, you know. You know, this is, so this is my
Starting point is 00:57:12 theory about this show and the guests that we have is that every time, I think, well, you know, I would want this guest because, you know, they're, I like their, you know, whether they're writing or their content or whatever. And I like their opinions and I want to hear more from them. But I'm worried that they won't vibe. Are they bad husband? Every time they come on, they vibe. That's right. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:40 So I, yeah, I was, yeah, I was actually, I think, I don't think she'd mind me saying this. I had dinner with a group last night and Simone Zimmerman was there. I love someone. And she was saying that she loved her experience coming on the show. I wasn't there that episode. But just the opportunity to kind of let her hair down
Starting point is 00:58:01 and riff, you know, and just like not have to be so on message which her position and her job and kind of her lane has her do that, which is extremely effective at it. But people actually enjoy. the opportunity to stretch out and chill with us. And then for us, we also get to adjust, like the episode with Hidar Kohen a couple of weeks ago, was kind of a different vibe,
Starting point is 00:58:26 not just because the three of us were in the room, but because we didn't do as much reacting to stuff, but people seemed to really find it interesting. And I know both of us found it pretty edifying too. And she vibed great. There was a lot of joking. Exactly. She had like one of the best riffs on the show. And yeah, I feel like it's like pretty consistent
Starting point is 00:58:46 in terms of like people are just when given the opportunity to finally just speak casually and glibly like you would any fucking other subject in politics it's like insane that this is like the one that's off limits and what ends up happening is uh people uh they they get excited and they're already ready to talk shit and i love it but we need to put this in our in our like press kit come be on bad hasbarah be basic yeah you could be more basic here than anywhere else you can be basic it's okay it is literally it's such an insane double standard you can be glib about anything except for this this is very complicated doesn't matter how many people die it's complicated um but yeah i want to show you were going to show pierce yeah yeah yeah i want to play
Starting point is 00:59:33 a little bit of pierce uh talking to this guy what we have to do to go after chmas to avoid civilian casualties something that we have successfully done out of that Hamas number that you just gave, more than 14,000 are terrorists that we took out. There's more than 25,000 Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorists taken off the map. What is going on with the fit of his suit? Like, what is that going on with his shoulders there, this guy? Oh, you're talking about Abby's shoulders? No, no, no, the guest.
Starting point is 01:00:04 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's his name. Yeah. I mean, he's... It looks like a weird sculpted fit. Anyway, sorry. Yeah, they are at a weird angle. too but you know he probably has one of those little like those little talk boxes or
Starting point is 01:00:18 something you know he's got he's got an earpiece and it's just Netanyahu's voice in his head just right deny yeah you know or maybe it's just the song where the circle jerks deny everything you know uh right here we we don't have exact figures as you know it's the fog of war you've got exact numbers for Hamas terrorists you kill why wouldn't you know how many civilians you've killed because obviously our focus is to go after the Hamas terrorists and that does imply that you're putting a bigger premium on killing Hamas terrorists in terms of numbers and accountability than you are innocent civilians that can't be right surely the statistician be a ballpark number for civilians well you can you can use the
Starting point is 01:01:00 ballpark as far as the Hamas figures which I reject is being I'm sorry but that is such a great line I don't have a ballpark figure but Hamas has really some numbers that we third reject this guy's absolute refusal and and again props to this T. N. Crumpet's motherfucker but he does not let him get away with this if only because it insults his intelligence like the Arabs did invent math meaning it's an anti-Semitic construct that's exactly right you know algebra yeah just like when I when I debated Rudy Rockman on Instagram back in October for those who want to see that it's somewhere way down on my
Starting point is 01:01:44 grid you scroll down you'll see it it's on his too yeah he basically essentially said that human rights and international law are both anti-semitic concepts and yeah wouldn't consent to them having universal definitions you know so very post very post modern of him yes I had I gave you the numbers that I had you told me you know know how many Hamas terrorists you killed but you don't have any idea how many civilians you killed. I thought you just told me that you were particularly careful about not killing civilians. But if you don't know how many you've killed, how can you say that with any certainty? Because even if you were to go by a ratio of the Hamas figures,
Starting point is 01:02:26 we would still be far ahead of any Western. That wasn't my question. You know it wasn't my question. I don't have the information. You literally have no idea how many civilians you've killed. It's not that I don't know. I'm not authorized to give the information. I don't have the information. That's complete nonsense. Why are you authorized to give me the number of terrorists you've killed? not the number of civilians. I don't understand. This might fear. Can you explain? This fool just was like, I'm going to try the silent treatment.
Starting point is 01:02:56 That's the, we discussed this, look. We talked about this over breakfast for the last two days, peers, don't do it. Don't do it, peers. Please stop trying to nail me down on this. How many civilians have we, We killed number, all right? We said we weren't going to do this. Piers, we will go after Hamas. We will ensure that we return to. You want me to believe you're being incredibly careful
Starting point is 01:03:23 about how many civilians you're killing. And you have an amazing exemplary record, but you don't know how many civilians you're killing. So how do I know you've been careful? Piers, when the dust settles, we will come out with the proper numbers. Hamas runs to the press daily with false. When the dust settles, a lot of people will have died.
Starting point is 01:03:41 and you know how many Hamas you've killed but you don't know how many civilians you've killed and i'm just asking you why why is it you've kept a record of one but not the other just it's such an insane interview uh there we go uh just watching such a simple question like you like being unprepared for the simplest of question especially when all of your talking points are about how like actually we have a really good ratio of civilian deaths to Hamas fighter deaths and then like comparing it to other you know wars and being like and then still not releasing any information or not being prepared to release any information about you know civilian deaths yeah Hamas like notoriously uses
Starting point is 01:04:31 lie yeah Hamas notoriously uses civilians as human abacus beads that's right that's right that's right so they just one by one and they do the math and they do the math and it as human humans, you know? Human humans. It uses them as human people. Human people. When you kill them, they get counted. It's very cynical.
Starting point is 01:04:51 That's right. Yes, yes. Very cynical. He would have done better just to deflect completely away rather than try to finesse his way through that one. Yeah, yeah. And that goes on for far longer. I like cut that up to make it a palatable two and a half minutes. And even then I could barely pallet it.
Starting point is 01:05:11 Yeah, it was, listen, if you can palette that, you, you're a more tolerant man than I am, because I'm just like watching. I'm almost feeling bad for the guy because I'm just like, you can feel him just like, he's just like, oh, fuck, it's going to be me and Alon fucking talking about Eurovision now. Like he's, he knows where this leads. Where did everyone else go? Yeah, exactly. No one's giving you fucking phone calls. you're not doing interviews. And now you've got Alon fucking taken over
Starting point is 01:05:45 that you're, you know, that spot of like he is now, you know, the head of the civilian PR corps that he invented. So it's like he can't even come up with his own platform because he's already, it's already been taken. So this guy's just going to get fired and fucking have to. I mean, speaking of numbers, Matt, and this is not a funny thing to say, but you notice that the numbers,
Starting point is 01:06:06 the official numbers have barely gone up in the past few months and that's completely implausible. I mean, yes, with, especially with Raffa right now. I mean, where must we be at? We could be approaching, what, 70, 80,000? I mean, it's, it really is hard to know. And it's, it's interesting because, you know, the numbers that were coming out initially for the first, you know, three or so months seem to be updated, you know, pretty regularly.
Starting point is 01:06:38 And, you know, if you look at the, you know, actual reports of people like looking into these numbers, including both Israeli and like non-governmental or like international human rights organizations, no one really is disputing the number of dead. The big thing that people were disputing early on was like, well, what counts as a civilian? And of course, the Hezparis, we were disputing everything because that's all they do is they just say, no, everything's a lie. But at some point, yeah, there was just like those numbers stopped and, you know, the reason for that if you're going to be someone who wants to believe, you'd be like, well, it's because finally, you know, Israel slowed down their killing machine. yet there was no indication of that based on you know like these numbers stayed at this like 30,000 level for a couple of months I mean for it felt like for we're still at like the official being like 35 or something like that while at the same time there's like the you know the invasion of al-Shefa hospital and like the you know the the ongoing bombardment of Rafa gearing up for this invasion which will certainly are I mean, cause a lot of, a lot more deaths. Maybe they're only counting intact bodies. I think at some point, the, I mean, if I'm just like theorizing here,
Starting point is 01:08:12 when you destroy the civilian infrastructure, both physical and like bureaucratic and like note keeping infrastructure, and we talked a lot with Zachary Foster about this, the amount of like destroying of official records that was going on, Like at some point, you actually do make it impossible for body counts to happen. Yeah. And I think, you know, if we're, if we're like, you know, if we're looking at the most reasonable conclusion as to what's going on here, the most reasonable is that like, like, they, the Israeli, you know, government has destroyed them so much that they have destroyed their ability. to actually have an up-to-date body count on the ship.
Starting point is 01:09:03 Very grim. And it's like, you know, again, this is another piece of evidence for the ICJ. If that does anything, I don't fucking know. Here are some happier numbers. We just crossed the thousand live viewer threshold. Oh, shit. Wow. That makes it all better.
Starting point is 01:09:24 Yeah, that's great. And they're alive. That's sick, too. That's nice. Yeah, there's, thank you to all a thousand people who are here watching this live stream. You know, this is, uh, shit is depressing and stuff. I feel like I don't know other live streams, but they're probably like more fun because they're like playing a game and stuff. Annie says, I can't go to sleep since October.
Starting point is 01:09:48 Go listen to the Wu-Tang Clan song. I can't go to sleep featuring Isaac Hayes. It's very cathartic. It's a very plaintiff song about just being troubled by the, the woes of the world and not being able to shut it out i think you might feel that one yeah ghost face killer has and rizza both have verses where they're basically weeping it's it's lovely i love that i like what you know rappers don't cry rap enough i feel like kendrick has that nice crying flow sometimes i love that crying flow yeah but i'm also like bitch made so like anything that's
Starting point is 01:10:25 um you know emotional like gets me immediately like if someone else is crying i'm like fuck yeah time for me to cry it's really nice cathartic release i wish you wouldn't call that bitch made what does that mean you're it's a healthy masculine thing to cry yeah i know but like i think being bitch made is healthy man i want to like de stigmatize being bitch made okay got it because you know i feel like i wear that moniker proudly got it same thing you know with beta like I'm a proud bitchmate beta, you know? Some of us, some of us are emotionally intelligent, all right?
Starting point is 01:11:01 I go on college campuses with cuck written on my shirt, being like, cheat on me. Leave me. Abandon me. I am not afraid. Fuck my wife. Castrate me. Oh, that's great. Oh, God.
Starting point is 01:11:29 Show my face and then show my wife's face. And then show my face with my wife a fucking another man. Publish my dick size. Oh, my Lord. Cast aspersions on my sperm count. Talk about this sliding scale of erectile, function with regards to my wind shop, windsock-shaped penis. All right, I lost it there.
Starting point is 01:12:05 All right. What else did I want to talk about? I mean, listen, there's a few other things here. I guess one thing we could do is at one point I wanted to do like an ask me anything, but I feel like this is like maybe something that we got to pre-produce, like, and and get like the questions to be good. Well, after that, after that episode with Hidah, we'd have to call it Ashki me anything.
Starting point is 01:12:31 I know, I know. We do need to do Ashki anything. Ashki anything. I mean, it's too perfect. But yeah, listen. Oh, yeah, so people are saying, what about Shai? I feel like- We need a real episode for him. We need a real episode on Shai,
Starting point is 01:12:46 because here's the thing. Shai is someone who, as of right now, I feel like he has, I mean, I mean, I don't really know what's going. Maybe it's my algorithm or whatnot, but I feel like I'm not seeing any updates from Shai. And I want to do a full episode on him. And I want to get more research done on him, more so than just the counterpunch. I believe it was counterpunch did an article going into his family's ties to Israeli weapons manufacturing.
Starting point is 01:13:16 And the fact that he is like literally a billionaire. He's like literally a Nepo baby. Like he is. And like the, I think the most disgusting. thing about him other than like well there's a thousand things i can't list them you know let's not rank them but um one of the more disgusting things is is the fact that he um is this like i don't know professor at the very university where uh edward said was um a professor and i just like i find it that for some reason that that disgusts me the most about it whereas just like you do
Starting point is 01:13:52 not deserve to um to hang out in the same teacher's lounge well but he's at like the school of human resources and and employee exploitation or something like isn't he in some he's in some bullshit man he's like in a business school guy uh which uh you know real serious academic discipline and oh and that's right also in terms of what his what he does again see we need to do a full episode on this, but his like focus in business and, you know, in business school is something that I remember just being hilarious considering his job. It's like something about like reputation management or something. And it's like, well, that's hilarious considering what you do and what you have done to your own reputation.
Starting point is 01:14:42 We are not okay. Yes. We are not okay. I do have that. I do have that. I I mean, I feel like we, at the very least, need to play this fucking guy. We are not okay. You absolutely are not okay. There's one thing you are not. I'd have to really practice to get that body language down. Like, I know. Like, he's like, he's like, got a choreographed leg stump.
Starting point is 01:15:13 It's just like a, he like, he has not stopped doing that I want ice cream leg stop since he was a three year old. Like he's been doing coaching with his. two-year-old who's been teaching him how to do it yeah all right one more time honey yeah can you do that move again where you like really really wanted McDonald's you know yeah yeah yeah yeah um all right this will be a very unhappy meal until the hostages come home brilliant Let's see, let me, I want to close out on something and something that'll make us, something will make us feel good.
Starting point is 01:16:02 Yeah, you read my mind, I'm fainting a little bit here. Yeah, yeah. Let's find something a good feeling. You know what? I have it. And I feel, I feel bad that this wasn't played on a regular show because it's just so good. And I'm sure people have seen it by now. I mean, this is a few, I think, a couple.
Starting point is 01:16:22 couple weeks old but there was a father interviewed at the at USC outside of you know the encampments there's the one encampment actually I've actually visited oh yeah how was that encampment it was pretty low-key no pun on the name of the Palestinian rapper people are telling us we should have on and we show totally should it was I think the cops had shown up the night before but hadn't cleared it. This was the night, one or two nights before the UCLA, you know, raid. And so when we were there, it was pretty chill. And it was very sweet. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:06 I, Francesca and I went to, there was a small encampment over at Occidental College, which is in northeast L.A., and we went there and donated a tent and some sleeping bags and stuff and hung out there for a bit and it was pretty sick i will say the one problem that i had was uh um i felt like what they needed what they got was like people uh you know some organizers doing speeches and i think that's great and i'm glad that you know there are organizers going on there and talking about their particular issue but i'm also like um just what about like someone funny Not me. I'm not talking about me. I'm just like, part of me was like it would be so sick if there was like, if this was, I mean, because, you know, these kids, they're already, you know, sitting outside. They're sleeping outside. They're reading books and, you know, like, give them, give them a little, how about some music? You know what I mean? They probably had music too. But anyways, I want to play this guy is, this is someone who is a father of a student over. at USC and was interviewed by local news talking about his daughter and the possibility that
Starting point is 01:18:32 his daughter could get in trouble for this and I just thought it was like it was just it made me feel good as a dad this is the kind of dad I hope to be yeah I'm here with Lacerro Awello you are a father of a student at USC who's here tell me why you're on campus you also said you're a Los Angeles resident support my daughter. She's studying here. And they're protesting against the genocide. And that's why I am against the genocide, my family is against the genocide. We think that nobody, no kid is served to be killed. But why did you come down to campus? Yeah, because my, my daughter started organizing too. Says, hey, we have to support Palestine. And that's why I am here.
Starting point is 01:19:16 Not only to support Palestine, we want genocide to stop. Do you know where your daughter is right now? You're going to be somewhere because the police start chasing all the students. As you see, they are threatening. If we don't leave the campus, we are going to be arrested. But the students are so brave. Look at them. They don't want to leave the campus. Does that concern you, though, as a father that your daughter is somewhere in?
Starting point is 01:19:37 Yeah, it concerned me, but my daughter did a right decision. If she rather to be arrested fighting for Palestine, I will be the happiest daddy. I will be the happiest daddy if she's doing the right thing, and I know she's doing the right thing. If the police arrest me now, I am willing to go with the students. I have no problem because what I am doing is the right thing, fighting against a genocide. I have kids, not only that in a year I have a seven years old, and I imagine being a father in Palestine to see my kids be assassinated by Israel. That's not good. We are humanity.
Starting point is 01:20:16 This is not a mother of religion, political, no. We are as humans. not support any genocide we will let you go and find your daughter and I appreciate you talking to us thank you for talking to us quite the story there a father coming down to campus his daughter a USC student partaking in the protest which went on all day here on campus love that proud Papa that's how you talk to the media I know I know and it's great it's just like You know, it's, he's saying what we're all thinking.
