Welcome to Montontavista episode 117, that's right. 117 just like the... Oh no. Oh no. this wrong I was going to have a reference but it turns out the references 177 not 117. He's going to refer to Mnight Charmelan's East Rail 177 trilogy. Don't know what that is. Sounds bad. You could have just said 117 and literally everybody in the world would have just nodded and said nope don't understand the reference but that's fine. Yep. No it's uh you know those classic movies unbreakable, right movie we can all agree. I haven't seen it. I haven't seen it. It's

so good. Not even the first M-night Shamiland film I would think of. Oh it's probably his best. Okay. Yeah, I get this. Very good and I recommend it extremely highly. It's the superhero movie we all need in terms of it's actually good And then there's the split the split personalities one with James McAvoy and then glass and we bring some all together. I haven't seen the one either Haven't seen any of them. Perhaps I will watch them. Perhaps I will watch them. Is there a twiistist? Do they have twists? East Rail 177 is the train that crashes at the start of the very first movie setting off

the events of all three films. They have the facts. Slight problem with the fact that it's not the number that I was hoping to reference and also that nobody here has seen any of the movies I'm talking about. We should should the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the number the number the number the number the number the number the number th. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. I th. S. S. S. I th. I th. I th. I the. I's the. I's the. I's the. I's the. I's the. I's the. the. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. I's th.

We should keep talking about it. Everyone loves when you go off on a huge spiel about the number of the episode for several minutes. Everyone sit at home going, oh it's Andrew time now. Here we go, everybody says, here we go. Here goes Andrew, talking about how unfairly maligned M-Knight Charmelon is. And I think that's true. Other than some of the extremely bad movies that he's made,

all the rest of them are really good. I would keep talking about them, but I get a suspicious feeling that no one else here has seen any of them. I've seen the sixth sense. Yeah, signs was good. I saw signs at the cinema. Science is not bad. Don't hate it. I remember seeing signs at the cinema.

And that's this, like, everybody likes a clown on M. Night's Shameline, because they're like, oh and he had like one big twist. But, um, I remember seeing signs at the cinema and like the very first reveal of an alien. Yeah, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the, and like everybody in the cinema I was in, screamed. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, people shrieked. Yeah. And like you go back and watch it. If you freeze frame that shit, it's like a Bigfoot style guy in a rubber suit thing. But he had built the atmosphere of that movie so well that everybody freaked the fuck out And that's that's been the M-Night-Shamalan hour I'm not-Shamalan hour

If you have a pro or anti-M-Night-Shamelan opinion, please write into Lucy at Punta Vista. to come. Sure. Let her know how you feel about it. Because she clearly has the strongest M-night channel unappearant. Very strong feelings. Hey speaking of things that it turns out that a whole bunch of people have strong feelings about. There was a climate strike in Australia a couple of days ago. Across the world

really. Across the world. Lucy did you go do one in Hawaii? I didn't hear of one here. I may have simply missed it but it certainly wasn't as big as it was in Australia. Do you guys have the climate over there yet? There's certainly some climate here and it's one that I don't enjoy. You've chosen well. It's lucky that you spend your entire life there now. It's lucky I'm physically stuck here for several months. Oh don't worry, you can come back to the totally mild climate of Australia.

Any day now. Very mild. For like the first time in months in Brisbane here. And before that, it's just like walking around everyone's like skin is just audibly crackling it's a good time. Sounds good. We had several days of like of like sort of 23, 24 degrees in a row it was like sunny and really nice we went oh I guess that's the end of winter and it's springtime now and then the next day it snowed a whole bunch. Oh my god. Very normal very normal. Cool so so going great. It's all going great. It's good. It's. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good that's good that's good that's good that's good. It's good that's good that's good that's good that's good that's good that's good that's good that's good that's good that's good that's good that's good. It's good. It's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good. It's good the the the the the the the the the the the the the th the the thi thi thi my god. Very normal. Very normal. Cool, it's all going great. So it was a big climate

strike across the world but also in Australia. Some might say especially in Australia, those of us who are standing around in here. And I guess the numbers were pretty amazing. I think it was like the second biggest collective action in Australian history behind, well it was behind the anti-Iraq war protests. I think that was the one that they were wondering perhaps even if it would beat, not quite, but still I think huge numbers for Australia. Yeah, so the anti-war one was just before Australia announced that it would be joining the invasion

in Iraq in 2003. And yeah, that was, that was definitely the clearest possible message that you could receive from the people of your country that they really don't want you to do this thing and then what happened yeah then what happened and then we didn't right then we won the war on terrorism we certainly did we we got them WMDs and everything turned out great for the next however many years that went along well the tho the th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho tho the tho tho the the tho tho the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th th th th th th th th th th th th th th. th. th. th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the theee thee theeeeee thee the the the the the the the the the the certainly did. We got them WMDs and everything turned out great for the next however many years. That was a long. Well, yeah, like my memories of that as well were that like the government spent a very long time insisting that it definitely wasn't doing that. And

they were like, oh, we're just, we're just moving some ships into the Gulf. We're just helping out for a while. We're just, you know, we're just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just just hanging, we're just just just just just hanging, we're just, you know, moving some ships into the Gulf. We're just helping out for a while. We're just, you know, we're just hanging around, we're just watching, really. We're just standing at the edge of the war and watching. And they maneuvered a whole bunch of ships in there, and everybody went, hey, it's very obvious that you're going to do this, and please don't, and they were like, hey, hey, relax, we haven't committed to anything. It's fine. It's probably just going to be a couple of surgical strikes. We'll be home by Christmas. Yep. Uh, Christmas 2022.

Date subject to adjustment. Well, we don't really know when Christmas is anyway. Well, that's it. There's no date in the Bible. So, uh, so yeah, what's the, what's the estimate on numbers for this bad voice, yeah? So depending on who you ask, if you ask the organizers, they say about 300,000. If you ask, you know, more, I guess, conservative estimates of about 180,000, so somewhere, you know, somewhere 200,000 plus, I would say, which is again, there's a gigantic

number. Sort of gets split proportionally based on how progressive and not extremely dumb your city is. So, you know, 100,000 in Melbourne, which is the biggest one, I understand. 80,000 in Sydney, you know, marking them as a garbage city that is not as good as Melbourne. Brisbane, of course, um, the thousand, thousand, th, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thum, thum, thum, tho, thousand, sort sort thi, tho, thi, thi, thi, sort sort sort sort sort sort sort thi, sort sort sort sort thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi, sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort sort thi, sort thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand, thousand,, you know, marking them as a garbage city that is not as good as Melbourne. Brisbane, of course, felt big on the ground, but proportionally smaller, you know, somewhere probably around 20,000, 20,000 people, which was the same number as came out in Hobart.

Wow, look like, so something like 10% of Tasmania's population went on strike. Wow. Yeah, and so forth. So just resounding numbers, you know, I was at the one in Brisbane with Ben, and they'd organized for, you know, Queens Park and it's all like broken up into different zones and that kind of thing, because I assume they kind of thought it would go like the last one, and then you turn up and there's like a queue to get in, going all the way down like a block, two block sort of thing. It was way, way bigger than they expected.

It looked busy. I feel like I saw pictures of the crowds and it made me feel anxious, which means there's probably a lot of people out there. Yep. But everyone being very well behaved, I think we can get into that later on, but the feeling on the ground was very good and very positive. Yeah, yeah, it was the same here in Canberra. I went to one. There was a lot of support, which was good to see from like, you know, unions and local businesses as well. There were hundreds of businesses across Camberra that all said, either take the day off or take the time out of your day to go to this thing and yeah the company that I

work for send a thing around saying hey make sure you go to this thing make sure you take time to do it we're happy for you to extend you know your lunch break by however many hours and not count it as work time or anything. I mean not count it as you know taking time or anything. But Andrew if I don't go then I'll be the pariah sitting alone at my seat. This is going to pressure me into you know. All the Marxists at my workplace will judge me and exclude me at lunchtime.

All this kind of silly shit. So yeah, like, I guess, really, really positive showing from just people in general, obviously, a huge showing from students themselves who were organizing all of this stuff, which is great. There's obviously a very clear gap here in between like the politicians' ability to understand that like, you know, they obviously look at students organizing this stuff and say, your students, you don't, you should be learning in school. You can't drive cars and you can't vote, so no one should give a fuck what you think about anything,

all you people who are one year away from registering to vote. It seems to be like a strange little. They have iPads too. They love technology, so they're hypocrites. That's so true. Been some great takes online all round. Well, great takes in the Australian media as well, because as we, I think, all kind of expected of this,

and as has been the case a few times since conservative government started running Australia the last time around or most of the th, it, it, the the the the the th.... the the the th th th th th th th th thi thi thi thi. thi. It thi. It thi. It thi. It thi. It thi. It thememes, it, it's thi. It's themes, it's themes, it's themes, it's thi- thi, it's thi, it's thi, it's them. them. them. them. them. the, it's the, it's the, it's the, it's th. th. It's them, it's them, it's them, it's them, it's them, it's them, it's them, it's them, them, thin, themes themes themes thin, themes themes thin, the seems the seems thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, thinks, times since the conservative government started running Australia the last time around or most of the time for the last several decades. There were, I think there was no front page coverage in any news court paper of what has been the second largest collective action in Australian history. Hundreds of thousands of people pouring out into the streets, taking time out of their school day or their work day. Apparently that doesn't really th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thousands of people pouring out into the streets, taking time out of their school day or their work day. Apparently that doesn't really rate a mention. I believe it was page six in like the courier mail.

Well it makes me think of like, remember when Tony Abbott was the prime minister and there was like that massive rally of like no confidence in the country's leader. And again it was like tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of the thousands of tho-a the the the tho-daydaydaydaydaydaydaydaydaydaydaydaydaydaydaydaydayday their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their the the the the the thoes thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of thousands of, it was like tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people pouring out into the streets and the media just kind of didn't mention it. They just sort of didn't really do any coverage and like one person, one reporter asked the prime minister about it at the time and he said, uh, whatever. And that was the end of it. Cool.

Yeah, so I guess the response in the media, very similar where barely any coverage from any news court papers, which the unfortunate reality is that they have most of a monopoly on Australian print media and a lot of web media in this country. I did see a piece from the like buried right down in the back half of the courier and the whole thing was framed like, who remembers those things that like, things like the Chaser and Ali G and shit used to do where they would like take a map of the world and say, can you point to Iraq on this map? Like the Daily Show used to do that where they'd label countries incorrectly and say,

can you point to Iraq and they'd point to Australia because it had a rock written on it? And they'd be like, look at these fucking dumb shit robs. They basically did that with a bunch of schoolchildren where they went up to them with a map and said, point to where the Adani coal mine is on this map. Damn, you got them, you owned him, bro. Yep, and a bunch of kids said, I don't know exactly where it is. And they went, oh, I guess you don't actually care. I guess you don't.

Did you see the good interview with the kid that was like, we don't like Scomo? We want him out of the industry. And then, I don't know who the interview was. Maybe it was like, he was like, he's not in the industry in the industry in the industry in the industry in the industry, he's the prime minister and the kids just like, yeah, we want him out of the prime minister industry. We stand. Love it. Love it. Love some sharp kids.

But the the Adani thing though is like versus Iraq. Like the whole thing about Iraq is that it was a big geopolitical situation. So it kind of actually matters where the country is. Whereas with Adani, who gives a fuck where the coal is being dug up from or where the coal is being burned? It means absolutely nothing because the fact of the matter is it's going into the atmosphere. There's only one atmosphere. Can you point to the earth where the CO2 is going? And that's a much easier question the to the the to the to the the the to the the the th is th is thi th is thi is thi is th is th is thi is th is thi thi thi is thi thi thi thi is thi thi thi th is thi is thi is thi th is th is th is th th th th. th th th th th is th is th is th is th is where is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th is th.. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi thi thi the the the the the the thate the thate thate the the thate that like, can you point to the earth where CO2 is going?

And that's a much easier question to answer, I think. I personally know where the Adani coal mine is, but I think that you guys should say it first. Hmm. Oh, I could certainly point at a map and say it's on the coastline of Queensland somewhere. Is it though? coastline of Queensland somewhere. And that's about all you need. Oh, near it, you know. Uh-huh.

Near the edge, maybe? Sure, yep. Sure. Now, hmm. Hmm. You sound like you either know or you definitely don't know. I'm sure giving that impression, aren't I? Queensland's a big place. it's in there.

It's in there. I feel like I've lost my own audio here. Nope, I'm back. No, you're good. I'm back, baby. Yeah, so apart from anything else, great journalism there where it's very apparent that the only aim that they had in mind was to come out of it saying, these kids are fucking dumb and they don't actually know what they're talking about.

So we shouldn't listen to it. There's a lot of it from Andrew Bolt. I got to the paywall and I'm like, fuck this. I'm not logging in to read this article from Andrew Bolt. But it's the usual horse shit. I th, kids think that they know a thing, but they're actually kids, so they're fucking idiots. Not like me, Andrew Bolt, the smart guy, who's ignoring all of the scientific evidence to arrive at this point.

Well, it's so, it's so like, you know, intellectually dishonest and inconsistent, the way that apparently it's fine for every conservative in the world to arrive at their own conclusion about how science works and it's fine for the fucking gullible ones. Yeah it's fine for like um it's fine for one nation senator Malcolm Roberts to just effectively craft his own narrative of reality and physics and all of these things. Do you think they believe this though?

Like are they genuinely convincing themselves that climate change isn't a problem or are they just being dishonest? I 100% believe that that is the case. I believe that, like, because you look at people that are in the middle of this discussion and they're like, well, you know, I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm not th. I'm not th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi, thi, thi, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. they're th. they're th. th. th. th. th. th. th... th....... th............. th.... th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. they they th. th. the. they they're, they're, they they're they they're they they're they they they they're they they they they're they're they're they're they're th are in the in the middle of this discussion and and they're like well you know I'm not really convinced you have to kind of extrapolate that to the people that are you know actively attacking kids and scientists and all of that that I I believe in their hearts that they have no fucking idea what's going on. I think that there's there's probably a line between the two sort of different types of people one of which which their their their their their they. they. they. they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they have they're they're they're they have they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they have they have they're they have they're they have they have they have they have they have they have they have they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they're. I I I I th. I thi. I thi. I thi. I to to toge. I'm to toge. I toge. I'm to toge. I'm tttogu. I'm thi. I'm thi. I'm they're thi between the two sort of different types of people, one of which is people who have no fucking idea what they're talking about, but just want to have an opinion,

and hey, we can all identify with that. You're listening to Punta Vista. Welcome to Punta Vista. The people who have no idea what they're talking about but love to have an opinion hour. And the other is people like Malcolm Roberts and he is genuinely a deranged conspiracy theorist. He is actively carving out his own reality. He is not only is he someone who doesn't believe that climate change is happening. He also believes that it's like an active conspiracy by like NASA and CSIRO to create fake data in order to advance the lizard people Jews of the world. Right, the Democrats invented it to get votes or something. Yeah, which is working really well, surfing wonderfully. I love how they pull

all of the levers of power that can't pull enough to get Hillary to go to Vermont. That's one of the things, I was thinking about this over the weekend, like this whole idea of every time you see all of these prominent voices in the media who love to complain in their nationally syndicated columns and on their TV shows about how voices like theirs are being silenced, which is pretty much a cottage industry in Australia at this point. But there's always this thing of like, ah, all of these children are being brainwashed into this group think. Everybody is, everybody is being like, you know, hoodwinked and bamboozled

into thinking a particular way about this thing. And I always keep coming back to the same question, which is like, by who? They seem to always have this sort of, they, like, they always seem to sort of draw a line, but they never quite connect the dots between what they're saying, which is, like, they always seem to sort of draw a line, but they never quite connect the dots between what they're saying, which is, there is some kind of mass effort to convince all these kids that global warming is happening and it's real and they need to do something about it.

But it's like, who's leading that effort? Who's the big figurehead? Who's the big corporate political interest who's gaining all this money?? th. thinininininininininininininininin, th. th. th, th, thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the thi the thi thi they's they's they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're they're? Yeah, who's the big figurehead? Who's the big corporate political interest who's gaining all of this money? I think it's Karl Marx. Who's also brainwashing the university students where you go and get indoctrinated with your Marxism. And I love the concept that like scientists are hoodwinking everybody

because, you know, of some, you know, Marxist philosophy or something at universities, to get, like you said, to get like, what out of it? Because it's not money or happiness, because every single one of these people would have fucking kill themselves. Like, to a man or woman, they are basically suicidal at this point. Well, and again, even if the point was to say ah there is some sort of nefarious leadership somewhere that is like coordinating all of these efforts which again in classic conspiracy theory style would be extremely difficult to believe that there is some kind of like

mass effort to coordinate all of the like science agencies across the world to all be coming up with the same data and all be fruitlessly telling governments that they really need to do something about this like again who who's doing it but also yeah what what is what is anybody actually gaining out of it because if the idea is oh it's oh, it's this big cabal that's controlling everything, they're doing a really fucking poor job because, like, show me all of these, like, far left, socialist governments that are in power and forcing everybody to like change what types of fuel they're using and everything.

Because at the moment, the political agenda part of it is failing spectacularly. We've got Scott Morrison and Australia waving around a lump of coal that he's kissing in Parliament. We've got Donald Trump like actively opening up oil reserves in the US. More oil. Plenty of oil for everyone. I assume Boris Johnson is bad. I assume he sucks. Yep, of course. And then you know you've also got like in other parts of the world you've got Balson Aron Aron in Brazil like giving free license to log and burn huge sections of the Amazon which I don't think we need to live all of us. So again if this is the big conspiracy my problem is it's like how can you make such an industry out of the world. And and and and and and and and and and and and and and and th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And th. And then. And then. And then. And then. And then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then you then you then you the then you the then you then you then you then you then you then you then you then you then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then then the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. And th. And thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the the they they they they the they. And then they. And then then thi. And then then this is the big conspiracy my problem is it's like

how can you make such an industry out of this this grave existential threat which is apparently having absolutely no success or impact in actually forcing people to adopt to this? But hey let's not worry about the details. So there was that piece in which they said, can you point at the map where the coal mine is if not you're a hypocrite? And there was also a picture that's been doing the rounds. Oh the fake one. The fake one.

Oh, look at the fallout from these rallies where there's litter covering these parks everywhere. That's what all these students did. They don't really care about the climate because they left all of their cheeseburger rappers everywhere. Which someone immediately just reversed image searched in Google and said, hey, this is from years and years ago at a completely unrelated rally in Hyde Park. And has nothing to do with the Climate Strike. This stuff amazes me because this is where it's so disingenious the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the climate the the the climate the the the climate the climate the the climate the climate the climate th th th th. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the climate the climate the and has nothing to do with the Climate Strike panel. This stuff amazes me because this is where it's so disingenuous. So can you imagine sitting there as a leftist and putting a fake

photo and being like this is what conservatives did and not stopping for one moment to be like maybe I'm not correct in this opinion? Like all of the ones that we we do are like you know Krang T Nelson on Twitter that's like I'm not correct in this opinion. Like all of the ones that we do are like, you know, Crangty Nelson on Twitter that's like I'm organizing the Antifa Super Soldier. Yeah. You know, we're going to go around like decapitate conservatives or whatever. Like stuff that is just immediately seen through. But because, you know, conservatives are either credulous dipshits or actively malicious.

The actually malicious ones craft these things that like, ugh, this is the real gotcha moment. There's so many of these. Motherfucker goes, ha, gotcha. And then immediately, right? Because again, like it's all bad faith. It's all fucking bullshit. You know, someone goes, hey, that's actually a picture from Hyde Park's totally different totally different thing but also you know what you're comparing are just two

different things where we're talking about litter that is picked up but that's you know a product of the capitalist consumerist you know world that we live in and actually you know many, many of these protesters are, you know, people that choose to reuse their plastics and, you know, actively try and reduce their litter and all that kind of thing. But also, you're comparing it to coal-fired plants, which are pumping, you know, hundreds of thousands of times more impactful pollution into the air every single day and they go, wow, you know, see the thing, you're mad and that's what I was going for. You're mad.

So basically I'm right. Pretty much. There's loads of these, there's loads of pointing out. I saw a picture of like people having a barbecue at one of these climate change protests and it was like, oh look at all these emissions they're putting out. Even though like the prime the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the things things, you things, you're things, you're things, you're the things, you're things, you're things, you're things, you're things, you're things, you're things, you're things, you're things, you're things, you you're th, you're th, you're th, you, you, you're th, you, you, you, you, you're th, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you're th, you're th, you're th, you're th, you're th, you're thee, you're the, you're the, you're the, you're the, you're the, you're theat, you're theat, you're the, you're theat, you're the, you're the, you're the, you and it was like, oh look at all these emissions they're putting out. Even though like the prime point of these is that individual consumer choices are not the important thing. It's like there's a whole segment of society that somehow was just birthed with no concept of one number being bigger than another number. And it's the same horses as like, and this is like the basis of all their gotcha bullshit, right? A big thing I've seen lately is that there's a,

there's a greenhouse gas that is emitted by, by wind turbines, right? And this is the, we talked about it in the previous, you know, climate episode where they, conservatives will put forward, no, this is from that daily mail editor, and they'll put forward this number that it's like it's 28 million times more potent than CO2. And they forget to ask the question of how much is going out there. But they put forward, you know, the wind turbines are putting out this gas this this gas this gas this gas, this gas, this gas, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, the, thi, their, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, th. And, th. And, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, the, thi, thi, the, thi, the, the, the, the, thean, thri, thri, theean, thean, thean, throoooooooooomomoomorrow, the, the, you know, the wind turbines are putting out this gas, right, and that, you know, leftists don't want you to know about it. As some huge gotcha thing of the, you know, the utter, you know, hopelessness of our position, where, one, you know, that because it's literally reported by the companies that make the wind turbines to say, hey, in our production, we create this gas. We know how much, and we know when you do the numbers, it is fucking inconsequential versus

the amount of CO2 that an equivalent coal plant would put out, right? And also, that these gases are produced by any kind of induction machine. But that's not what that's about. What we have to do is be absolutely perfect and produce no emissions, no pollution whatsoever, or we don't have a leg to stand. And of course that's all shit. That's just total crap. Yep. Yeah, I saw something similar with some dickhead tweeting about the climate strike and saying, oh, what none of these people have answered is what would the net effect on global emissions be if Australia completely reduced its emissions to zero. And of course, what they want somebody to say as a result of that is that it would only make a small,

it would make a very small dent, if anything, in the total emissions across the globe when you take into account countries like China and the US. But again, that's not the point of any of this stuff. The point isn't to say, hey, Australia should just do this thing and no one else should do anything and that's the end of the story. The point is to say it is about collective action. It's to say we need to like put as much pressure as possible on all of the countries to all be doing everything they can to reduce this type of emission as much as possible so that we can th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th the the that we can the the the the that we can the the the the the th everything they can to reduce this type of emission as much as possible so that we can collectively reduce the amount

that we're all emitting and as part of that Australia should be doing its part especially considering that I'm pretty sure that we are one of the biggest emitters per capita in the world. As well as one of the biggest exporters of carbon. And that's like something that I don't think we, as Australians, talk about enough, that it's almost hardly worth talking about our own carbon emissions, although that certainly is terrible because we are one of the highest per capital, but the amount that we export, that we like, like so many other things like you know getting cheap goods made in China

We just export the problem and make it somebody else's issue to deal with like fuck we We dug this call up and now it's not our problem anymore. That's someone else's problem to China or we send it to India and they burned it so they are the ones doing it. They've got a different environment over there. They're outside the environment. It's the eme picture. It's the Eric Andre meme picture where we're shooting them and then saying why would India and China do this? Yep, absolutely. That's us. My goodness. So yeah, obviously we had the response in the media, which was bullshit as we all expected. And we also had our our our our our our our the the the the the response the response the response the response the response the response the response the response the response the response the response the response the response the response the response the response the response the response the response the response the response the response the response the response the response the to to to to the response to as we all expected and we also had our responses from governments around Australia. One of the initial very disappointing ones was Anastasia Palishe, the premier of Queensland, the worst

state. Yep, quote-unquote Labour leader. Yep. So Michael Berkman, who is a Greens rep, tweeted during the week. Whoops, a hotty. Just asked Anastasia Palashay if she would follow in Daniel Andrews' lead, who is the Premier of Victoria, and back public servants attending Friday's climate strike. I kid you not, the Queensland Labour Premier just told Parliament that strike should be held, quote, after hours or on your lunch break. Does she know what a strike is? Does she know what the Labour Party is?

Yep. The Premier said quote, believes in democracy, but in the same breath said protests should be permitted, protests should be in permitted spaces with police approval. And children should be attending their workplaces. Well you want to just corral people into their designated free speech zone. That's right. Remember one hour of protest a month. Yep. Remember when they were doing that? Oh, remember when they were doing that in the US after their designated free speech zone. That's right. Remember when they were doing that? Yep. Remember when they were doing that in the US after Iraq?

Oh sorry, after 9-11 and then we're going into Afghanistan? Those fucking cages that they would put people into. Yeah, well it was it was along the, um, I think it was during, uh, I think it was during like the presidential parade for Bush's second inauguration and yeah, and they were like, oh you can protest. You just have to do it in one of our designated free speech zones, which were literally like chain link fenced in areas that the police had deliberately set up like several blocks back from the parade route. Yeah, where no one would ever see them.

Imagine inventing the designated free speech zone and then thinking that it's the left that's like 1984. Now if you want to have your say, what you need to do is you know and it's just step into this huge soundless concrete cube. You can scream as much as you want in there and really, really be heard, just in the soundproof cube. And first, first you're gonna want to apply for police permission. Uh-huh, yep, to protest. Make sure you get, make sure you get permission from your employer before you protest, I think is a big thing. Ask Daddy. Yep. Yeah just this

whole continuing thing that we have in Australia of you are allowed to have your own voice, you're allowed to make your voice heard as long as you're not actually forcing anyone hear it, as long as you're not doing it in a way that disrupts traffic or local businesses or your employers write to your time in work hours or school or anything else, local traffic, anything that might be even the slightest inconvenience to anyone that might say disrupt anything somewhat. Environment Minister Susan Lay said that if disrupt anything somewhat. Environment Minister Susan Lay said that if the purpose of the protest was to draw government attention to climate change,

quote, I can assure everyone that our attention is already there. Yeah, like overhearing someone being murdered in the alley next to you. Yes, I hear you. I'm quite aware of the murder, thank you. I know what's happening. She says we are taking real and coordinated global action on climate change while ensuring our economy remains strong. Name one. Name one of the actions. Well, she went, she went snorkeling of the Great Barrier Reef and then she said everything's fine. Oh, right, the reef is definitely, that's definitely fine. That's a, there's a scientific consensus on how good the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the ta.oooooooooooooooooooooooo. the the of the Great Barrier Reef and then she said everything's fine. Oh, right, the reef is definitely, that's definitely fine. That's a, there's a scientific consensus on how good the reef is going. That's for sure. Yeah. Definitely go and see it. In a statement, Education Minister Dan Tien drew a link between the global strike movement and flagging test results around the country. What? I'm sure that's nothing to do with like like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like the the the the the the the their their their their their, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there's there, there, there, there, there's there's there's there's there's there's there's their their their their their their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, test results around the country. I'm sure that's nothing to do with like stripping funding from the education system or

making everything about standard test results. Yeah, the, um, so this link goes to the NAPLN results, right? And this year there was a big strike against the NAPLlin by teachers. Teachers stopped teaching the naplin because like you said, it's just another thing in this standardization process that has no real overlap with reality as far as how kids operate or are taught. But no, it's the half a day off that the kids took for themselves at the end of the term when, you know, otherwise they would have had the AV trolley pushed in and they watched

Grand One's two or something. No, no, they all would have aced it if not for these several hours out of a whole year. God damn it. Yeah, just, hey, kids, you know, you're worried and you're always thinking about how all us teachers, we got a full life, we got one of those lives that went from like zero all the way up to like 70 or 80. And yet you will be soon living out kind of a, the road kind of scenario. Just put that to one side in your mind. Stop thinking about that, and what we need you to do is do some derivatives instead.

Yeah. So he says, the true test of the protesters' commitment would be how many turned up for a protest held on a Saturday afternoon, he said. It's fucking bullshit as well because in the protest, the people that were leading the chance, the people that were most vocal, that I saw, were unionists and kids. Yep. Right? The kids actually fucking cared.

You get kids to care about anything, right? Like anything at all, and you've got these kids out there who are you know actively engaged in this fucking thing what a what a load of shit. And this like we're saying about just being completely sort of dishonest about everybody's involvement and motivations here, much like the point of the map, show me where Adani is, was this whole idea that we saw lots of conservative commentators spouting which was, oh, the only reason that kids are going to this is because it's during a school day. Oh, who would be shocked by the fact that a bunch of kids wanted a Friday afternoon

off school? And again, comes back to the idea of, well, you're allowed to do it, but as long as you're not disrupting anything and as long as you're not disrupting anything, and as long as you're not actually doing anything out of the ordinary or not doing it in a way that actually draws any attention to it, completely misunderstanding the point of a protest or collective action or a strike, this idea that, yeah, like, oh, well, if if they had it on a Saturday afternoon, let's see if people turn up then. It's like, well, it's a fucking strike. The point was to actually take time out of the thing you would normally be doing and have some kind of material impact. So again, this idea that the only reason that kids were in favor of this thing was that they wanted the afternoon off school. If that was the case and they got the idea the idea the idea the idea the idea the idea the idea the idea the idea the idea the idea the the idea the idea the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. their their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their their their their their their their the. the. the. the. theateateatea. their their their their their their their their their their their their their their th this thing was that they wanted the afternoon off school. If that was the case and they got the afternoon of school, they could have just not fucking gone to the thing. It's not like anyone would have known that one specific kid wasn't at the thing. Yet strangely

enough. But they got brainwashed though Andrew into thinking a thing was important. God forbid. Um, acting Prime Minister Michael McCormick denounced the climate. th. students would learn more at school than at a protest rally. That is of course the only place that you can learn anything. This is incredible. Where do you think they learned about the science and the climate change? Yes. It's exactly right. And also I would say that would be true in one and only one circumstance and that is if they said look you can go to the protest or you can stay here and we will also teach you all of the science as to how you know CO2 works as a greenhouse gas what the biggest emitters are how we sit what the way forward is how much time we have left.

That's literally the only circumstance in which I can imagine them staying at school would be more meaningful than them going to this protest. McCormick continued, I think these sorts of rallies should be held on a weekend where it doesn't actually disrupt a business, it doesn't disrupt schools, it doesn't disrupt university. So once again, just showing either the most fundamental misunderstanding of the purpose of a thing like this, or what I think is more close to the reality is that the only thing that conservative politicians actually give a fuck about is business being disrupted in any way, shape, or form. Yeah, and I've got bad news about what climate change is going to do to that, so I'm looking

forward to that. You might be asking why huge dipshit Michael McCormick is currently the acting Prime Minister. I am. I am asking. And it's because a genuine huge dip shit prime minister is doing more important stuff than dealing with this like going over to the US to meet Donald Trump and kiss him on his big white stupid ass. So from an article

somewhere, I wasn't paying attention, US President Donald Trump has louded Scott Morrison as a quote man of titanium in a White House meeting that can have a stronger military action against Iran, rising tariffs against China and man of titanium in a White House meeting that can have a stronger military action against Iran, rising tariffs against China and joint defense work in Afghanistan. Now you've gone with louded there. Yeah I do. Would you like lauded better? I'm just wondering, look, we report you decide. Louded, lauded. I would go either way with this one. Hmm, not sure, it could be wrong. Would you like to hear Google's official pronunciation of this? No, no, that's fine, just in case I'm wrong.

Yeah. Well, the good news is that you're right. But more importantly, more importantly... I've been getting dragged for fucking weeks for saying NASA. Yeah, I was about to say, do we want to get back to the last week where Theo was... I didn't even hear that out loud. I just saw it in the Discord and I was, it's NASA. Incredible. Theo said, Nasa. Get the fuck out of here.

I'm going to space with Narsa. I'm going on a space shuttle with Narser to outer sparse. Leviosa, it's Narser. God, you used to think that me living in this glass house would be a bad place for me to throw stones from. Here are my handful of stones and it's gone wrong. Mr. Trump heaped praise on the Prime Minister and spoke of eternal ties between Australia and the United States during talks that cemented ties between the two allies on defense and trade. Asked about a remark, it does not. Who are we defending from?

I don't know. Oh, fuck. Asked about a remark in 2003 when former President George W. Bush described former Prime Minister John Howard as a man of steel for standing his ground, Mr. Trump upgraded the description for Mr. Morrison. You know, titanium is much tougher than steel, Mr. Trump told reporters in the Oval Office. He's a man of titanium. Is that true? I have to deal with this guy.

He's a man of real, real strength real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real real strength thr- thr- thr- thr- thr- thr- thii with this guy. He's a man of real, real strength and a great guy. And I'm sure that's nothing to do with, um, I'm sure that's nothing to do with like Scott Morrison and Boris Johnson being the only two, like elected leaders of the Western world who are willing to just absolutely grab their ankles for Donald Trump and say, oh yes sir, absolutely anything. You're a great leader and a wonderful man. Donald Trump has forgotten who Scott Morrison is by now immediately. He wouldn't pick him out of a crowd. And like, and you know, you just know that the whole thing with like

Scott Morrison that we all hate so much about him. One of the many things that we all hate so much about him. One of the many things that we all hate so much about Scott Morrison is just his absolute grinning dip shit quality of man who cannot believe that he actually caught the car that he was chasing. He is the Prime Minister. He's not doing anything with it. He's just happy to be there, smiling like an absolute fucking rude everywhere he goes. I didn't think you could get worse than both Tony Abbott th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th that that that th thi th thi thi thi thi th so th so th so th so th so th so tho tho tho thi thi th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi to be there smiling like an absolute fucking rude everywhere he goes. I didn't think you could get worse than both Tony Abbott and Malcolm Turnbull. But we've done it we're still on that slide baby. So as part of this this junket a bunch of there is a press pool that is poured over from Australia and that included

likes some people from the ABC but most importantly it included Sky News presenter and definitely not a journalist in any way shape or form Paul Murray Paul Murray is a great big dip shit of the highest order who has a TV show on Sky News a a subscription-based service that nobody watches where every night he scrolls on his iPad and then yells things on the screen and he was bought over. He's a garbage Alex Jones. Absiablish Alex Jones. So he was bought over, you got to do an interview with Scott Morrison in which he asked hard-hitting questions like,

how are you and have you had a nice day? Great, great stuff, great stuff. I'd love to be interviewed that way to be honest. How are you? What are you having for dinner tonight? All that sort of stuff. Do you like Scott? Scott your friend? Absolutely embarrassing access journalist. And as other journalist, Hugh Rimington points out on Twitter,

who says, to get an interview with the US president, I know, I've tried, the White House media team clears you with the Australian ambassador in D.C. Who in turn clears it with the Prime Minister's office. This is what the Prime Minister's office put forward. It is not, it is, it is, it is, it is, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, th. tha, tha, tha, absolutely, tha, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, thol. Um. Um, thi. Um, thi. Um, thi. It is, it is, it is, it is a thi. It is a thi. It is not, thi. It's a thi. It's a thi. It's a thi. A. A. A. A. It's a thi. A. A. It's a thia. Um, thia, thia. Um, who in turn clears it with the Prime Minister's Office. This is what the Prime Minister's Office put forward. It is not journalism, simply reward. And that's not very hard to believe, considering. They chose this man.

They chose... Is Joe Hockey still the US ambassador? Yeah, yes. Okay. It all makes sense. Oh. But it turns out that Scott Morrison actually wanted someone else to come along on this trip. He wanted Hillsong Pastor Brian Houston at the White House dinner, according to this report from the Wall Street Journal. Prime Minister Scott Morrison reportedly wanted Hillsong Pastor Brian Houston to be part of his delegation to the United States,

but was rebuffed by the Trump administration. The Australian government put forward Mr. Houston as an attendee for the official state dinner at the White House, but gave up after the Americans vetoed the invitation during negotiations, the Wall Street Journal reports. In his first speech to Parliament, Mr. Morrison said he had been greatly assisted by the pastoral work of many dedicated church leaders and specifically thanked Mr. Houston. At a Hillsong event earlier this year, Mr. Morrison appeared on stage with the pastor and called for more prayer and worship in Australia. Hillsong and Mr. Houston were censored by the Royal Commission into the institutional responses to child sex abuse for their response to abuse by his father, Frank Houston. The commissioners found that the younger Mr. Houston and the church's senior leadership

had failed a victim by not reporting abuse to police. So the whole story with that was that there had been swirling rumors for a long time that church founder, was he the founder, Frank Houston, a very, very influential figure within the church, had also say abused some kids. And they covered all that shit up, and then when it finally came out, they went, oh, we are taking Frank Houston out of the ministry for some reason. Bye everybody. On Saturday, Mr. Houston said it was quite extremely disappointing that media coverage had linked

the story about the White House invitation to the Royal Commission. You cover up child sex abuse one time that people find out about. And all of a sudden it's all anyone wants to talk about. Honestly, I'm surprised that the US cared. Careed enough to say no. To say no, thank you. I'm honestly surprised. Well, it's interesting because like, Mike Pence is a huge, Jesus freak.

He probably, he probably loved that shit. So it's interesting because you almost would have thought that the Trump administration would relish an invitation to like you know just rub in their face how very obviously like Judeo-Christian they're being at all times. Great news great news from world leaders this week and just north of the United States. There's another country connected there in Northern America. I believe it's called Canada. I think it is called Canada. Canada! More or more like in northern Australia every day. I know this isn't funny but it's so funny. It is funny. Now on this show, we do have a particular fascination with talking about blackface.

And specifically, specifically why Australians cannot stop doing it. And apparently it's not just us. It's incredible to see a story like this come from outside of Australia. And what is this story Lucy? That would be woke bay, SJW Daddy, Justin Trudeau, and his history, his vast history of doing blackface. The man loves to do black faces turns out. He loves it. So on Wednesday Time magazine broke the story that Trudeau wore brown face at an Arabian Knights themed party in 2001. This isn't, I don't think this is feasibly long enough to have any forgiveness at the elite private school where he was a

teacher. Trudeau then 29. I just want to reiterate that he's 29 at the elite private school where he was a teacher. Trudeau, then 29. Just want to reiterate that he's 29 at the time. Also, I didn't make the connection here. I thought that this photo was like from a frat party where he was the student. I didn't know until I saw this that he was a teacher. I thought he was like a teen. And then I read th th th th th th th I thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi. tho thi. thi. thi. tho- tho- tho- tho- tho-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-oe. thoe. thoe. thoe. tho. He was thi. He was thi. He was thi. He was, thi. He was thi. He's thi. He's thi. He's thi. He's thi. He's thi. He's thi. He's thi. He's thi. He's thi. He's the. He's theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. He was a teacher. I thought he was like a teen. And then I read this, he was 29. It's seen in a photo grinning through dark face makeup with a turban on his head.

I also want to point out that he has made up his hands and his entire body. This is like his commitment to blackface where he would have had at least, I'm going to say 30 minutes to take a breather and say maybe this is not a good idea. It would have taken long enough to do that you like commitment like the you know like the the lady that gets gets done up in the in the blue makeup for X-Men or whatever that takes six hours. Yeah this was a good. Commitment to the bit just sitting there it is. Chagara. Well it'll all be all be worth the the th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th th to the bit just sitting there and his chair got, ah. Well, it'll all be worth it when I turned up to this party, completely blacked up from head to time. And it very much is. It's not some like amateur hour shit. This is, we're talking head to toe, like black shoe polish no no light can escape this man's

vicinity absolutely. So he apologized soon after saying he didn't consider it racist at the time he admitted to an incident in high school when he wore blackface adding the explanation that he has always been more enthusiastic about costumes than is sometimes appropriate. That sounds a lot like... Of course he's referring to that amazing photo of him doing the Namastay. Just... It just... Oh, there's just this progression of headlines that just... I'll just... I'll just go to Google Just a Trudor Namestay. Oh yeah, Google Justin Trudor Namastay is equally funny.

So my first headline that I saw of this, because of my time difference, I woke up and just logged onto my Twitter and just saw the headline video resurfaces of Trudeau in third blackface incident. A third likefledged face. It's all in like 12 hours too. It's just, oh, that's incredible. And then my favorite headline was, Trudeau cannot say how often he wore black face. Who could say? He did apologize and pointed out that his privilege and the way he grew up made him blind to this, which normally I would agree with, but when you're in that level of, I don't know, I feel like he should

have known better on many occasions, definitely before the age of 29. Not sure if I'm going to say that this one's a youthful mistake. God damn. Yeah, I mean like, for example, if I would ask you, Theo, how many times have you done Blackface? Uh-huh. And you would say, I don't know. You'd say, how can one put a number? So I don't know, maybe it's just because I'm the kind of person that is like shameful of

every single thing that I've ever done in my entire life. But I feel like if I had several blackface incidents like lurking in my past that I would remember the number if it wasn't exactly zero. Like, I would have a guess, like an estimate at least. Yeah, like, uh, is it four? Is it five and just it's just like shaking his head sadly? Like, 10 or 20. He's just shrugging.

Oh, it is, it is pretty comfortable to be able to just say, yeah, zero. How many times have I gone and got either like a thick layer of dark grease paint makeup? Or just a can a good old-fashioned black shoe polish? And then taken some type of you know makeup removal pad or something like that something where you can get a thick layer going started scooping out scooping out layers of of shoe polish how many times have I done that you asked Australian excuse which was brought up in the the great blackface red

faces incident which was that Australians didn't really understand the history of blackface. The cultural significance. The cultural significance. I feel like, I don't know, did Canadians not know much about racial segregation and racial history? I feel like they've probably had some of their own racial problems in the past. I would, I would assume so. But also, yeah, like I just, I've said this before, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've, I've th th th th th th th th th th of their own racial problems in the past. I would, I would assume so. But uh, but also, yeah, like, I just, I've, I've said this before when we've talked about

the Australian propensity for blackface, which is, it just doesn't wash with me that you can be simultaneously aware of it, particularly when you see like the way some people do it. You can simultaneously be aware of its existence and also not understand why it's not a great look. Yeah, and in that case you might do it once, hear about why it's not a great thing and be like, hmm, make sense, won't do that again, but in this case, just so many opportunities for change, you know? So many chances to just say, you know what, I'm actually going to jump into shower, get some paint thinner. Sure he remembers taking the black lake off every single time, because it would just be such an ordeal.

Imagine. Probably just Arabian nights parties too, just don't do that one at all. Imagine forgetting how many times you'd had to spend six hours just getting black. Just scrubbing off of you. Off your hands. Until you're pink, like a baby. Looking at, yeah, like having what looks like an extremely badly applied fake tan for the next two weeks at all of the classes you are teaching teaching Oh Every you come in you come in on the Monday morning and everyone's like

Professor Trudeau's been out it again Been blacking up out there. Oh, God. What was the theme this week professor? Moroccan nights? Arabian nights? God-da'en thin. Hadn't thought about Justin Trudeau in a while. It sounds like things are just generally going really badly for Justin Trudeau. Yeah, not great. It sounds like his whole career of, like, said, being the woke bay, wearing his clever socks,

and all that kind of thing has just not been washing out as he continues to do things like railroad massive oil pipelines through indigenous communities and all that sort of stuff. So eat shit. Eat shit, buddy. Now, before we go, we might just have time for one quick edition of a little segment that we all know and love called Plainly Speaking. Please return your seat to their upright positions as we are coming in hot on another edition of Plainly Speaking. Yes, that's right folks. It's a lovely little intro. It's pretty relaxing.

It's pretty relaxing. I like it. Yeah. Because Lucy loves planes. She loves planes. She loves plane. Love airplane food. Big fan.

Airplane food. What was the most recent airplane food that you had? Do you remember? You know, I haven't had anything great lately because I fly Jet Star to Hawaii, but they do have a delicious mac and cheese for anyone stuck on a Jet Star flight. Huh. I feel like every time. I never take long enough flights to warrants getting anything other than like, here is a cracker,

and a small cup of sprite. Damn, sorry to hear it. It's an experience. I love it. I love the little cold bread roll. I love the garbage food that you never know what you're going to get. It's exciting. There you go.

So, this week we did just pick up this little post from Andy Slater on Twitter, who looks like he might be a news anchor of some kind. And he says, Bloody Mess on my flight to Miami, woman in aisle has blister on her foot pop. Blood splatters across the aisle, including on the two guys in front of me, one of their books and the aisle, including on the two guys in front of me, one of their books and the window. Didn't like seeing this image. Just going to put that straight out there.

And he has attached a photo here. He's attached a photo. Thea would you like to describe the photo for us? Okay, so we've got an open book on an airplane tray. That's a paper back that they were reading when the incident the the the in the incident the incident the incident the incident the incident the incident the incident the incident the incident the incident the incident the incident the incident the incident. the incident the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. I the window. I thi. I thi. I didn't thi thi thi. I didn't thi. I didn't thi. I thi. I the window. I the window. I the window. I the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thin. I thin. I didn't the. I didn't thin. I didn't theeean. I didn't thin. I didn't thin. I didn't the didn't the didn't the. I didn't thin. I didn't thray. That's a paperback, it's open to the page that they were reading when the incident occurred. And I would say that there is not an insubstantial amount of blister fluid. We're talking about blood and plasma. Yeah, it's very clearly not just blood, is it? Hey guys, I have to say, at home, I'm having a, as bad a type as you are with this. And it is just splattered all across this guy's book.

And that final detail in this story, Andrew, which I find possibly funniest, is that the fire brigade has to meet the flight when it lands. We've got to hose this broad down. Oh. Oh, that is a nightmare to me. And would have had to like travel, they have to land after that, just covered in blister fluid. How does the things pop? I guess it's like a pressurized cabin scenario?

I don't know. Oh, I guess because your feet swell, maybe. I don't know, maybe. Was she in bare feet at the time? This is another reason to not take your shoes off on the plane. Don't do it, everybody. You shouldn't take your shoes off on the plane. I know it feels good, but don't do it. But don't do it.

But don't do it. Goodness me. Yep, they land in Miami and immediately like six firefighters in full uniforms storm into the aisles and yell, where's the disgusting woman? Where's? People in hazmat suits coming on. Just hosing her down. Yeah, they bring the hose straight in through the door. Just open it up, full the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
