You do? Yeah. I think the eagle has to be retired and here's why. Okay. We have flirted with a beaver becoming our mascot. It's the mascot of Canada. And that was my next point, was that Canadians tend to be fighting for America more than MAGA is fighting for America. And I do think the eagle is an attractive bird, a more interesting bird than like a sparrow. But I don't, I feel like we need to retire it

and just go all in on beaver. I kind of like the beaver. Yeah, I do too. I like it. I like the whole, I like the whole ha ha ha beavers or the beavers. Hee hee hee hee. Pumps, what have you had it with?

I've had it with everything. I've had it with 15 years of Botox and now I have bruises on my face when I'm getting recorded. I've had it that my dog attacked another dog and every time I walk the dog I have to worry about the dog. I've had it with my voice. I've had it with your voice. I've had it with the fact that they're building a bike lane on the road I come to work in.

I've just had it. Everybody's fucking with everything all the time. I'm sick of it. In Trump's America, everything is worse. I am happy about that bike lane because these bikers, the other day Roman and I were driving and going to lunch together and there was a biker at the intersection and everybody was stopped and it was stopped at a red light, not hugged over to the curb. And Roman goes, is the biker pretending to be a car? And I said, yeah, that's exactly what's going on right there, Roman. Is that bike is pretending that it's a car stopped

at the red light in the center lane, knowing that it's never going to have the juice to cross this intersection that a vehicle is going to have. And so I know what bike lanes you're talking about. And I'm like, good. Now we know where they're going to be. They'll have their own lane. We have our own lane. They can quit trying to pretend like their cars. I'm all for bikers having bike lanes. I am too, but just not on the street I drive. Everything's about me and my world. And that bugs the fuck out of me. I'm just like, we have a thousand different lanes you can do. If I saw somebody riding their bike like a car, I probably would

go full Karen. I might just lose my damn mind. That's where I am today. I mean, I might get out of the car and run up and push them off the bike and she'd be like, get out of those stupid pants. First of all. Yeah. Yeah. You know, it's, uh, it's difficult,'s difficult to be an American right now. It is. It's really difficult that there's a huge portion of the country that has excused just criminal behavior from Trump and the crackheads in his cabinet. It's gross.

They're gross. The whole thing is just— We're gross by proxy because we live here. We're fat. The whole thing is very gross. OK, let me tell you what I've had it with. I've had it with my iPhone updating the camera roll for years. For years, the camera roll was one particular way. I knew how to operate it. They'd add a little update where then you could enter dog in the search and then all the images of your dog popped up or you could enter. The other day I was looking for an image of my sons with a former NBA Thunder basketball player named Tavo Cefalosha. And

he used to live a couple streets away from us when he played for the Thunder and he walked down the street one day and I took a picture of them. So I put in my iPhone, kids on street with tall man, you know, and it can pop up. So that's a great added feature. Now it's like the photos that used to be at the top are at the bottom and the bottom are at the top and it's completely disorganized. And I don't know if a lot of people at Apple are doing ketamine with Musk and then rolling out these updates, but it is not an improvement. It's made the camera feature worse. It's not a betterment of the camera roll.

Well didn't Tim Cook come out and support Trump? He sure did. Okay, there's your answer. Everything's worse in Trump's America. Everything. People get stupid, dumber. Yeah, I do think the stupidity has been going on for quite some time. That's just highlighted.

Yeah. It's really highlighted. Welcome to I've Had It. I'm Jennifer. I'm Angie, the Beaver. Kylie, have you noticed the camera roll? I refuse to update my phone because I know all about that update. It's I can't deal with it like there are just certain times where I want to go into my camera roll and there's certain things I want to look at

and now it like I'll enter a I can't't. Those of you that know, no. It is a horrible improvement, and it's just another thing that's going to shit and trumps America. Yeah, you know when you're iPhone, and I'll tell you what else, since we're on the subject of iPhone. I've had it with Apple changing all their chargers all the time, enough.

Let's pick one charger, let's stay with it indefinitely. Let's not switch around all the time. Kylie, what's going on on the World Wide Web? I've got a couple of really important reviews that I'm going to read you today. We have a update from the prom date that you turned down, Angie. Oh, okay. He says, I'm really putting myself out there right now, but hold your cringe for one second since your flippant rejection of

my first offer, I have been crafting a rebuttal. Pumps the pod has not been the same since you crushed my heart. I haven't listened for a couple weeks because your voice just hurts to hear anywhere but the other end of my telephone. Can provide background checks and references, bring your own chaperones, you get the hotel rooms, I'll cover the limos April 26 a blue dot in a sea of Midwest red but a safe space I've been watching suits to try and understand the complicated needs and emotions women of the law experience stop running from a good dude in reality and in big dick energy I drive a hybrid educated but not a dick eagerly anticipating your counter offer. I

also have a field trip to Europe this May slash June. Well that's uh, I mean, I'll tell you what, these men are on you like a tick on a dog. You got that DJ out there in Brooklyn. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, he's on you like a tick on a dog and then we got this guy wants to take you to the prom. And I'm sure now that he knows you're going by beaver. That only makes it more enticing. Just exacerbates his desire for you. That really is sweet.

Really sweet. So it's still a no. I'll think about it. I hate it that he hasn't listened, though. I hate that. You see what you're doing? I'm kind of codependent. You're driving customers away from our podcast. Listeners, you're driving,

you're putting a wedge between us and our listeners by not dating. You're single-handedly sabotaging this podcast. I mean, there's so many things we've wanted you to do that you just want, you refuse to do. Oh, because I don't want to go to a naked camp or whatever, a nudist camp? I mean, come on. I'm just saying I think that that could be what America needs right now. Me at a naked camp or me at this problem? Hear me out. So, Donnie of a Beaver rewards life from the all-inclusive, you know, what

are they called? Like heathen, I mean, they have these nudist camps have like the name is like, you know, heathen, heathenism, heathenism, heathenism. Yeah. And you, you know, like you could go live, you could live naked. Yeah. Put that on the, I'll think about it. Kylie, what's next? Okay. Next five stars titled fine. Leave us alone from Cody. And he says, here is your dang review might even be a second closeted listener here that never promotes your guys pod and listens with headphones while working I love it so much this review is from great old conservative North Dakota do not come here oh my god closeted listeners I love that in North Dakota you have to be that is I mean here's the deal Cody those hinges

have got to fly off fly them off and Trump's America. You just got to let those hinges fly off. Oh my gosh. I haven't even told you this. Okay, so I got a new TV and the people came out to install the TV and afterwards I'm signing the documents whatever whatever, because I didn't stay. And he wrote on the deal, I want you to know, I really love your podcast. It was great meeting you. And I texted back, and I said, oh my gosh, you just don't hear that that much in Oklahoma City. Thank you so much.

He was like, yeah, you wouldn't believe all the houses I go into where it's Fox News playing. I can hardly stand it. How about that? Yeah, a city like ours is purple. And when people have, when they get it, and they get how fucking crazy MAGA is, and just what a hair brained weird cult it is, where you've got like one of Trump's preachers, spiritual advisors, that's now been arrested for sexually abusing a 12 year old, you know, and then you've got

him letting out the Tate brothers and you have all these big evangelicals that are like, oh my God, you have to vote for Trump because he's a Christian. It's just like when you, I guess you have to be just double digit IQ and a dip shit and then in a cult and then you're all in on it. But if you don't get it, there's such a camaraderie and going, can you believe these fucking assholes? Right. You know, there's just a camaraderie to humiliating these people behind their backs. Yeah, no, I completely agree. But I thought that was nice. It's very nice. And surprising. He said all his work coworkers don't, they're not mega. They all hate mega. I was shocked. That's great. That's great news.

That's great news for democracy. Okay, Kylie, I believe that we did a call to action on our here podcast, DEI podcast, that we wanted a DEI jingle. Yes. I think we've had a lot of people submit them. I know that Robbie from Australia our top Australian correspondent Sent me some AI Jingles to my Instagram. I wouldn't know how to retrieve them or download them, but they were pretty good I was pretty impressed with the robot I like that people are really talented when you get around to it Like a lot of people in our group are smart and talented. This was artificial intelligence.

Yeah, but they knew how to do the artificial intelligence. I couldn't sit down and make anything artificial intelligence. I don't know how to do it. You just get your phone and you say, please write a jingle for I've had it podcast. They've now rebranded themselves as America's Top DEI podcast. Make it sound like a game show and really catchy and then it makes it.

I can't do the voice activation on my phone, see? You can type it. Oh, you can type it? Yeah. Where do I type it? Chat GPT or as Josh calls it, chat GPS. Oh, I've never done it, okay. I've actually got one queued up from a Stephen Smith and I do believe this is an AI

jingle That is so good. Okay, here's what we need to do in Trump's America. So, Kylie, let's keep a chart. That's Stephen Smith. That was Stephen Smith. Okay, Stephen Smith. And I liked it. It made me laugh. Catchy. It was catchy. And it also is kind of like a double entendre for our listeners. It could be, I've had it with Jen and Pumps, or I've had it with Jen and Pumps. Like they've had it

with us. You know, so like if we piss them off today, if there's somebody who loves the new Apple update or somebody who likes to ride bicycles or somebody who wants to go to a prom and keeps getting stood up and rejected, then they can play it with either meaning, with either intent. Yeah, of course, in my state of mind, I immediately went to, I've had it with Jen and Pumps, like sick of them. Of course. That's where I'm at. That's kind of what it sounded like. Yeah.

I would like some more jingles. I quite enjoyed that. I did too. AI puts the music with it. Yeah. I liked the music too. It was real. Yeah, they do the whole thing.

I didn't know that. Yeah. OK, I have some new stories I'm going to share with the listener. The first one is a bad marriage is much worse for your health than being single. High quality marriages characterized by satisfaction, positive attitudes, and low levels of hostility are linked to better health. Conversely, low quality or troubled marriages can be significant sources of stress, potentially leading to

adverse health effects. Unmarried individuals on average report higher levels of happiness than those in unhappy marriages. This suggests that being single may be more beneficial for one's well-being than remaining in a detrimental marital relationship. I completely agree. I can't even believe we had to do studies on this. This seems like a no-brainer. Miserable, married, happy, single. Yeah. I mean, if you have a bad marriage, obviously people are married and happy.

But I'm just saying, if you're in a bad marriage, obviously it's better to be single. Yeah. I mean, I think it, but sadly so many people that we know are stuck in these marriages with really either untreated alcoholics, untreated pill poppers, womanizers, and the man holds the purse strings and the woman feels like if I leave, then he's going to be so punitive not only to me, but also to my kids. So they take all the bullets for their family. Oh yeah. The financial issues, I would say, are probably the number one reason most couples

stay together. If it's a semi-bad marriage, that would be the number one factor to stay together. Okay. Next up, we have people who answer texts quickly are more caring. Slow replyers are emotionally unavailable, study says. The study found that fast replyers were rated as more empathetic, caring, and engaged in relationships. People who took hours or days to respond were perceived as less interested, more emotionally detached, and even unreliable. Deliberate slow responders, those who purposely

wait to text back, were often viewed as playing mind games. Researchers believe that texting speed creates an instant impression of emotional availability. So what are you? Well, if I have my phone, I'll respond pretty quickly. But if I don't have my... Like sometimes I'll put my phone down and I won't respond. But this is if you, after you see it. After I see it, I'm pretty good about responding. With texts, I am a very quick responder. Where I've gotten really slow at responding are like DMs because, or, you know, something

that's in an app. Because sometimes I'm like, okay, I don't want to get on Instagram. And then I'll get on Instagram and then I go look at the DMs and I'm like oh my god I don't know if I can go through all of these because I feel like doing the pod and then we do the other pod about Trump when I get home I want to just decompress from all of it and but in general I'm a very quick text returner because I've been in business for so long. And it's just like time is money. You know, who's a very slow text returner? Who?

Hello? I know I am. I spend, I hate responding to texts and then so for work I do my best to respond to that outside of work. No one gets a response from me. Not one person. Really? All my friends know like don't expect a text back. It says that your slow replyers are emotionally unavailable. Yeah, let's dive into that. I don't think of you as emotionally

unavailable. I guess she responds to her bosses because we're her food source. I'm emotionally available to you. We're the food source. I mean, it's not I wouldn't be too flattered by it. No, I know. But do you slow play Ana's responses? No, Ana gets responses. So like you three are the three ladies in

my life that get a response. What about Seth? Seth gets a response. Pumps, I'm packing up today for my vacation to Brazil and let me tell you what I've packed. I personally love Quince's linens and washable silk tops and my suitcase is full of them. They're fashionable, affordable, and so chic. I love their luggage sets. I bought a set this Christmas.

Okay, next up, kids today take approximately 90 seconds longer to run a mile than their parents did at the same age. And we have been talking about this a lot. Kids these days are just not as cool as we were.

No, I mean, we were cool. I mean, it's just now they're slow. I mean, on top of the helicoptering, on top of the titty baby, on top of all this stuff, now they can't even fucking run? Yeah. Well, here's the deal. When we were little, there was nothing to do

except play outside, run, go to the neighbors, do all that. Now they can be on their phone and they never even have to go outside. Yeah, I do think that there is a big problem with all of this screen time and people not exercising and kids sitting around playing video games, not exercising. My son, my oldest son was just home from Syracuse for a week for spring break. And I'm like, he doesn't exercise. And it drives me crazy. I didn't say a word to him about it, but in my mind, I'm like, what a mess. Like you were home eight days and you didn't exercise at all, except for walk up to your room and walk down the stairs from your room. And it just, the lack of exercise,

it's something that's probably more about me, but I'm just like, we have to move our bodies. Yeah, and they just, all their interaction for young people, all those young kids, it is, it's all, they can't really talk to you like other people, and they can't exercise apparently now, can't run very fast. Okay, Kylie, what do we have today? Voice memos?

We've got voice memos today. Excellent. And up first, we're going to listen to Aaron. Hi Jen, hi Pumps. My name is Aaron and I live in West Texas, which is one of the reddest areas in Texas. What I have had it with is people saying, I will pray for you, or I'm praying for you, or I'll keep you in my prayers. Are you motherfucker? I want a motherfucking receipt of saying that you're going to be praying for me.

I want you to sit down on your knees or whatever the fuck you do with your hands up and I want a video of you praying for me. I think we should start asking for prayer receipts. That's what the fuck I want. Anyways, bye. For those of you that don't live in the Bible Belt, this is ubiquitous. I'm praying for you. Prayer's up. It's a God thing. Blah, blah. It drives me insane. It's so bad. I probably told this story before on the podcast. I don't know if I have it. I'll tell you guys again. So my mother, total atheist, I mean, completely sees people that are religious fanatics as intellectually weak. All right. So that's the breeding grounds for my disdain with religion. I come by it honestly.

So my youngest son, my oldest son Dylan, when he was little had chronic ear infections. And Josh was of course in one of his rehab stands, but that's neither here nor there. And I'm just desperate to get sleep. I'm desperate for his ears to be cleaned up. And to get in with an ENT is difficult for a toddler. So we go to this guy and I go in the waiting room and I'm so desperate and I'm sitting in the waiting room and I'm like, oh my God, the only thing on the coffee tables in the stocker's office are Bibles. And then he has Billy Graham posters as the artwork. And I'm just like, where the fuck am I? How is this person a scientist? How did he make it

through medical school? And I'm like starting in the bargaining stage, like, this other guy was a month long, I don't think I can go that many sleepless nights. This guy could get me in. No wonder he could get me in. You know, I'm going through all this stuff. And so I go, I go and he sees he's like, we need to put tubes in and I have an opening tomorrow and I'm like, oh shit. So I'm like, we're just going. It was a good hospital. And so my mom comes with me to the surgery the next morning and I'm holding Dylan and we're like in the OR prep room and he said, okay, it's routine.

I'll go in, I'll put the tubes in, yack, yack. I mean, it's like no problem. I'm like, that sounds great. Do I stay with him and tell you to put him under? So he gives some instructions. He goes, before we do anything, why don't we pray together? And I, I know that my mom is going, I mean, I just know I can just feel it. I can feel that we're trusting this person to put tubes in the kids' ears. This quack. Are you kidding me, Jennifer?

I can already sense it. But I'm desperate to get the ear infections to end. Because I'm just like a single mom with this baby that has all these ear infections. So I reach out and grab his hand quickly as fast as I can. And I grab my mom's. And my mother is like, and it's not one of those like, God, it's like, oh dear Jesus. You know, it's like Bible thump nauseating prayer and my mother is just glaring and rolling her eyes and she's like, oh brother, I mean this

quack, oh what, can you believe that he spent that much of his life studying science and he's still this crazy? Are we sure we want him operating on Dylan? I'm like, Mom, I'm desperate. And then there was that other time that I was desperate around the same time period. Peps and I were talking about this the other day. So Dylan went to this mother's day out at a church and then they're like, yeah, next week we don't have Mother's Day out. And I'm like, what? Like he needs to be here. She's like, no, we're closed for vacation Bible school. And he's like nine months old. And I'm like, can I sign Dylan up for vacation Bible school? So I signed him up for vacation Bible school. It's the same classroom, the same deal.

It's just kind of shifted from daycare to like more Jesus interest. So I pick him up one afternoon for vacation Bible school and I come home and he has all these papers like Jesus loves the babies and Jesus loves the children and God this, Jesus that. So I just thrown the stuff down on the kitchen island. My mother comes over. She walks in and she goes, well, Jennifer, what is this? You know, like I had some sort of fucking propaganda in my house. Right. She was just appalled. And I was like, Mom, I signed him up for vacation Bible school. She's like, why would you do such a thing? Like he's too young to indoctrinate. I'm desperate. I need

for him to be gone like four hours a day. We were just talking about that. I laugh my ass off just knowing Linda's response to that. It's so funny. I had somebody text me this weekend. They had a child that was in the hospital having surgery and they're like, I think it was a group text. Mine just came to me individually and it was like, you know, pray for so and so. And I was like, I'm keeping him so close in my thoughts. That's my standard response. Oh, here's one. I don't know if we've ever talked about this one. So when you were still married, you had some sort of back surgery or knee surgery or something. And your fucking dumb ass ex-husband sent a group text that I was, you know, he never did anything minor. I'm talking it was a 50 person deep, torturous group text. And it said,

Princess just got out of her surgery. Did I know this? I don't know. You had just gotten out of surgery. But I'm sitting, this is back when I smoked cigarettes. So this is probably, I quit smoking 11 years ago. It's probably about 15 years ago. So I'm sitting on my back porch and I see this Kirk and, you know, 743 others pop up on my phone and I open it. I mean, it's an immediate eye roll. God damn. Princess just got out of her surgery. And then he gives all of this detail about what, you know, the surgeon's incision, how many stitches,

what was removed, what was tightened up, what was cleaned up, you know, just that nobody fucking wants to hear, right? And then he ends it with, he ends it with, I know that God guided the surgeons. Nah, stop, I did not know this, I would have remembered that.

Yes, and then all these people start hearting it, and like, oh, prayers answered, and all this, and I responded in the group text in front of all your fucking diehard Christian friends, I'm so grateful for modern science. You can ask them, some of your nieces and stuff read that. And the more, and it was like prayer hand emojis and all this shit. The more I saw just the more disgusting I've gotten.

I'm so grateful for modern science. Like none of that had anything to do with religion. And also, called you princess in the first sentence of a 53 person group text? I'm not saying you are, you aren't. How about all the unnecessary medical detail? Does that surprise anybody? No.

I mean, you could not even imagine the hypochondria. You know what? I'll tell you what. You should start, after you go to the nude camp, you start teaching a class on how not to pick a husband. I'm not saying I'm great, but you're better. No. I have always said parents should pay me to meet their future spouse. I'm really good at women,

but like men, terrible. Interesting, Beaver. She's really good at women. Well, but I mean, I have good- Kylie, what does that sound like to you? Does that sound gay? I'm a lesbian. I wish. I really would be so much better at it. But I'm not kidding. Like I would always pick like if I think the person is great, then you immediately run, run, run. If I think. No, I think we know that you, you immediately knew he wasn't great. You immediately knew that he was a dork and you were so cute. Oh, that's true. I don't went back on my. had that relationship therapist on the on the podcast and she diagnosed

you as an egomaniac. I only like people that don't like me. That's my problem. The donning of a beaver is an egomaniac in a plot. I thought it would be the the yapper Jennifer but in a surprising plot twist. It's the beaver. Yep. Okay. Who's next? For Princess. Okay, up next, we've got Jaye Quellen. Oh, I love Jaye

Quellen. Hey, y'all. So I've absolutely had it with Instagram couples. And I know we've beat this horse to death. However, this is going to be calling out couples who have their own Instagram accounts and feel the need to repost each other's real stories or whatever the fuck it is. You'll have one person post a nice picture

or video of their cute kids, probably with the heart eye emoji, or of their vacation. And within five seconds, the other person reposted to their own page. I'm sorry, but I don't need to see your Cancun vacation pictures twice because I followed both of your accounts. As a devoted cult member, however, I would be remiss if I didn't call out both Jen and Pumps for doing the same thing.

But I will make an exception for America's biggest Patriots. Good call. Okay. So, is she saying that we share each other's stuff? Well, I think the podcast, we post the same stuff on the podcast, but Kylie sends it to us. So that's really different. Yeah, I try not to because I know our I've had it is so active and TikTok, Instagram, whatever. On our personal accounts, we really don't post a whole lot.

No, I don't. I always forget. We just don't like and I'm just like, I that, I mean, there's a little bit of us goes a long way. We were just beaten our own personal accounts. Just, I mean, I think that we would end it for once and all, once and for all. Because sometimes if I post two things a day, I'm thinking people are looking at this going, she's fucking a nut, quit posting all the time. You know when it says so and so posted or whatever. So yeah, I get that. Now, interestingly enough,

I did have somebody come up to me and say that they listened to the podcast and that she and her husband both had their, they had a couple's Instagram account together. And she just like laid it up there. And I was like, okay. Did you know this person? No, she was like, hey, I love the pod. But I did hear the other day that you've had it

with couples that have the same Instagram account and my husband and I have the same Instagram account. And I was like, okay. Red flag. Okay, let me give you my number for when you get divorced. Let me tell you guys something that's just really great that's happened because of the podcast. So Pumps and I take our dogs to the same dog school where they go doggy daycare and they're classmates and friends and they have a social media account.

And we noticed, I don't know, for about three months, there was a lot of dog content. Our dogs just weren't featured very much on it at all. And so we get each other riled up about it. Like, why aren't our dogs being featured? Like, our dogs are photogenic and our dogs are cute. Like, why the fuck are these doodles getting all this airtime? Like, what the fuck's up with that? So we go up to the dog school to pick up our dogs together and we ambush Stephanie, the owner at Bark, shout out Barker, the town, Oklahoma city. She's the best business woman ever. She's amazing. Stephanie and her husband, Todd run it. So we go into Stephanie and we ambush her.

I'm like, Stephanie, why isn't there been any Frenchy content on the Instagram page? And she's like, well, I mean, she's like, the girls kind of run it. And she and I'm like, here's the deal. Like I'm going to start one of the podcasts, but I've had it with Bark of the town. If we don't get more Frenchy content within 10 minutes, it was raining hellfire. Cha Cha, Debbie and Ollie on the Instagram page. So that's a really like little, you know, ace in the hole that we have that we kind of bullied sweet Stephanie. She's the sweetest. The nicest, best business owner, those employees are, I mean, the whole experience, her business is five stars.

Top to bottom. And we kind of bullied her and threatened her into featuring our dogs more on the Instagram page. It didn't work like a charm. It worked like a charm. And here's the thing, I don't feel guilty about it. No, I get so excited when I see it. I take pictures of it and send it to you even though I know you have Instagram. Those pictures were particularly great of Tubby.

I think Instagram is better and I think her feed is better because of our said bullying activity at the dog school. I think so too. I really do. I hated that. That is a perk. It's a perk. A job perk. We're able to, and I told you about that time I was at the tennis and a girl walked in with a top-knot headband and then by the time she made it down the courts, it was off. Oh, speaking of, has Stephanie given you the present she got you? No. Is it a top knot headband?

Hey, Jen. Hey, me, my drag curtains and Kathy, my three favorite ladies. Cacaw is a fellow gay triad Phoenix out in Las Vegas. And this is what I've had it with. I have had it with these Republicans, Nancy Mace, Marjorie Taylor Greene, all those dumb asses.

Stop trying to come for Jasmine Crockett. Okay? Y'all just mad because she's calling y'all out on y'all bullshit and it's about time somebody is telling y'all what the hell is really going on and what the fuck y'all need to do. These Republicans need to get off their asses, quit drinking the Kool-Aid, and realize what the fuck is going on. Oh my God. But anyway, love y'all much.

Well, I love Phoenix. Immediately could tell that's like an immediate friend. And I completely agree with him. I am so troubled by the normalization and the public's ability to excuse very blatant mental illness in leaders such as Nancy Mase, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and or low IQ. And Nancy Mase and Marjorie Taylor Green are such like caricatures of human beings. They want to just belittle gay people and trans people and they talk about it like there is an army of trans and gay people and drag queens waiting to attack the United States any given minute.

And it's just, it's insane. It makes me crazy. They're an embarrassment to this country. They're an embarrassment to women. They're an embarrassment to our species. I hate their parents for having made them. Yeah. You know, here's the thing. I feel like when Marjorie Taylor Greene came on my radar, she was like, she came out guns blazing just crazy. So it was just crazy, crazy, crazy. I feel like over the last year, I've watched the psychosis, engagement, you know what I mean? Like I'd never even heard of Nancy Mace before. And now like I, I worry about her. Like I think something is very, very wrong there. Marjorie Taylor Greene,

she's so mean and crazy. I feel like she's all, I don't know, but I just, I just like Nancy Mace gives me heebie-jeebies more. Like it's easy to hate Marjorie Taylor Greene because she's so obnoxious and mean and hateful. Nancy Mace strikes me as unwell. Well, here's my thing. Like anybody who is so consumed with trans people, when you're talking about less than 1% of the population, and these people are marginalized and bullied and drug into the national election stage, like it's this major attempt by trans people to overturn the United States government is the way they make it sound and

Nancy Mace that JK Rowling Candice Owens she has a YouTube channel with millions and millions and millions of views per video Where she is trying to convince people that the French president Emmanuel Macron's wife Brigitte Macron, is a man. Yes, I forgot about that. It is just like, here's my thing. We have some friends that have a trans daughter, and they're hurting right now. They feel vulnerable. They're wonderful parents. This isn't easy. It is a difficult thing, and it's nobody's fucking business.

And if it makes you feel good to beat up on people, and we all were in school, and you all, I'll just be very blunt about it. When we were in school, there was always a girl that was maybe what we would call a tomboy, and sometimes there was a boy that was more effeminate. And you see this happen in all societies, in nature, everywhere. Our only job is to not be mean to them. You don't have to be their best friends, but just don't be an ass. And these people are such assholes. And that brings us to Phoenix's second point, which is Jasmine Crockett. Black women are the epicenter of all civil rights movements in this country.

They vote for everybody. All of the racists that say mean, horrible things about black people. Guess which group of people will always vote to make sure you have social security and Medicare? Black people. Guess who is the backbone of the Democratic Party? Black women. So Jasmine Crockett is a superstar in my opinion. Black people. Guess who is the backbone of the Democratic Party? Black women. So Jasmine Crockett is a superstar in my opinion.

She is whip smart and she needs to be protected at all costs. I completely agree. Here's what worries me. These people, these young Gen Zers, they're not going to know politics without the crazy, like without the Trump effect. And everybody just the crazy you are without the Trump effect and everybody just the crazy you are, the more attention you get. And so you Matt Gaetz it or you George St. You know, just all the crazy ass shit that when I was younger, like in middle school and high school,

I had no idea what was going on in politics. It was boring. You just never heard about it. Now it's entertainment. So I worry that more, we're going to continue to see less serious people in politics and the MAGA wave writing of the Matt Gaetz and the Nancy Mace and all that is going to continue because they get attention for it. And now as young people, they don't know the difference. They don't know politics is supposed to be boring. Politicians are supposed to keep the government running, do things for their constituents and move on down the road and you never even know who they are. Like I worry about that.

Yeah, I do too. I mean the normalization of electing stupid people that MAGA has done and electing like people that aren't experts in their field, appointing, you know, RFK Jr., who said he has a brain worm, decapitated a whale, and bizarrely set up a bear murder in Central Park, you know, and is, you know, anti-vaxxer. And then we have these measles outbreaks. And I just think there's a job that we all have to really try to grow the online platforms of facts. And when you look at the right-wing media echo chamber, it's massive. And they're the ones who scream censorship. And it's not even close because outrage and hate is more clickable and people like to

feast on it. And so I hope that there are young Gen Zers, millennials that are brave enough to come out and make platforms and people to share their posts and grow in this age of unenlightenment to try to bring us back to there are facts in this world. And you can be a nut and you can, you know, be terrified of drag queens all you want to, or you could fucking have fun and go to a drag show. But it's a real problem. But Jasmine Crockett's great.

And I hope that, you know, I will say, my kids, I always check in with them to see what they're watching. And there's some young, like Gen Z people on YouTube that debate these crazy conservatives. And this one guy, I can't remember what his name is, but my son's watching him all the time and he's fantastic and he gets like millions of views. So I hope that there's more and more and more of that because I think the embrace of stupidity is what bothers me most.

Right. The lack of expertise by people that are supposed to be experts. Well, and these dipshits online that literally sit on Facebook all day long that think they know more than a neuroscientist. It's just more than I can fucking take. I know. It's crazy. It always sends me back to COVID. Like people, when you said to me, like the only time I remember like COVID. Like people, when you said to me, like the only time I remember like rolling over, dying laughing is when you said to me,

I think all these people that are anti-vaccine, I think they should just go to the, they should have a Facebook hospital set up in the parking lot of the real hospital. And when they get sick, they can let the Facebook people diagnose them and make them better. And I just thought that was so funny.

Well, that's what they do. But this cherry picking that they have, and this is something I want to talk about because sometimes you and I will do some Christian bashing, and it's because we live in the buckle of the Bible belt and we see how obscene these evangelicals are and what a grift these mega churches are and what a ruse these private Christian school educations are, hate academies. We see it. So when we speak out on that, then you have people online that are like, well, not all Christians are that way. And it's true. But here's the thing that we have to address as a society. When people on MAGA say, well, you're not a real American. Well, and then,

which is not true, pumps are real Americans. And when people say, well, you're not a real American. Well, and then, which is not true, pumps are not real Americans. And when people say, well, they're not real Christians. Well, the Bible is inherently flawed and contradictory. It claims that the earth is flat. It claims that, you know, what's his face? Jonah lived in a whale. It has, you know, like two daughters getting their dad all liquored up and having sex with him.

And so it's not like this great moral thing to follow. Like we've advanced far beyond this Iron Age book. So my thing is, Christians cherry pick, like the good ones cherry pick the good parts of the Bible. And we're not that mad at you if you try to, you know, echo Jesus. But if you start saying that all of that shit is real, that kind of bothers me. You can say it's real to you, but you can't then project that onto everybody else as being real.

But there is an inherent problem with religion where people cherry pick what they want out of it. And these crazy Christian nationalists and these crazy evangelicals, these mega church grifters, they pick out the parts that they want that benefit them. And then there are some good people that pick out the good parts that benefit them. But it is all from the same book and from the same religion. And I just think that's something that has to be addressed. Well, I think you absolutely have to address it, especially when you live in the area we do.

The way I grew up, the way religion was indoctrinated from the jump, I don't think people on the East and West Coast realize how it is every single day in like mega America, super Christian mega church. And for me, having been in it, my biggest thing is the lack of critical thinking, the lack of like compassion and empathy where you, you judge other people because you're better than like the entitlement kind of to it. Like, well, that couldn't happen to me because I'm who I am and I do all this. So I think that's probably, you can draw a straight line to why people collectively aren't caring about other people while it's more individual. I mean, I just think

when you boil it down, there's a through line of not really caring about anyone but yourself and thinking you're better than other people. That for me. Yeah. And I just think the larger point is we have to quit saying like, well, you're a real American, you're a fake American, they're real Christians or they're fake Christians. The situation is that a lot of Moses, Mike Johnson, he thinks he's a big fucking Christian. And maybe there's an Episcopalian that doesn't take the Bible literally, that is far more rational, insane, and educated, and intelligent, and kind, and might have a bit of serenity that might be appealing, you know, marketable, but that person wouldn't then grandstand about it. Be like, that's a really cool person. What's going on there? But we are one of the most religious

first world countries where these politicians have to run around and talk about how much they love Jesus all the time. And in Europe, that shit just doesn't happen. It's kind of disqualifying, right? Politicians don't talk about that. And we're also like the prude, the most prude first world country, like about nudity. And yet there can be all of this violence in movies, right? Nobody cares about that. But when there's a naked person. Or where the most sexist country, like you and I can sit here on this podcast and can throw an F bomb or whatever and you'll pay people in the comment section, I don't like that language.

And these are liberals saying it, but they're misogynist. They're misogynist liberals that say it. Where if Joe Rogan or John Stewart or Trevor Noah threw an F-bomb, nobody would even think to write that in the comment section. And so there's just a lot of work to do. My personal opinion, having grown up completely secular in the buckle of the Bible belt, the cancer, the epicenter of the cancer is here in these are a, it is a racket. It is a pyramid scheme. It is a riff raff, knick-knack, patty whack, indoctrinate people. And they want

to grow and grow and grow. Go to any mega churches website and say, great news. We just opened up five more churches. Great news. Great news. We just opened up 10 more dunk tanks. We're spreading the word. No, shut up. I've had it. All right. We will see you next Tuesday and Thursday. I'll tell you what I've had it with. Let's hear it. I've had it with them.
