Starting point is 00:01:02 Demolition Project with the East Wing is very Interesting. I have an interesting bit of information on that So stay but for I this stuck in my craw And it's gonna seem weird I don't know how quite like you know pivoting through it organically Can we just see? Let's just show this weird thing This is Jeremy Allen White It's a tweet I saw now if you don't know if you're listening on the audio
Starting point is 00:01:29 And you don't know who Jeremy Allen White is. He's the guy from the bear that show that's a comedy about a restaurant where nothing's funny ever seems to happen. And it's just, they take like a place that's sort of Steakums in the middle of Chicago. Like, I'm sure it's good, but like Steakams, but good, right? That was the gimmick for that, the bear in the canon of the show. And then the idea is that it becomes like a four-star Michelin thing in the middle of down. whatever part of Chicago isn't good where people get killed all the time.
Starting point is 00:02:03 I don't know about that. They deal with that element of it? I don't know. But it's fine. People know that show. But he's kind of a genius, right? He always plays a genius. What's that I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:02:13 He's like, this guy, he's like a troubled. He used to work at like the top chefs' kitchens. He knows all the best boys. All the top chefs. He's like, he knows everyone in the industry. He's always, like, he's the kind of thing where he comes in. Like, he's James Bond going to a spot. convention, oh, you're still in the business?
Starting point is 00:02:33 Oh, I'm working at the Steakam shop. It's like, you fell far. That's before you find out, he was good. It's like, oh, he knows these people, right? He's such a genius. And then this guy, and back when he was on Shameless, he was playing a genius. He was his kid. The show was about like a, like a wino.
Starting point is 00:02:53 Like, like, Frigian, William H. Macy plays. A wino's illegitimate children. Right. He's eight children, and he's just a guy who does like, at first. Like, I think he sometimes steals credit cards, right? And you think, oh, is he going to become some kind of hustler on the streets? Like, hey, daddy, or whatever, you know.
Starting point is 00:03:08 But, no, he gets, like, recruited by the NSA in this show later on. You watch, I come in one night. You're watching in the middle of the night. I only watch the first season. And he's like, what's going on here? He's like, oh, he's being recruited into the CIA as a computer genius. Now, why is this so important to me? Why do I care about you?
Starting point is 00:03:28 Because if you look, this tweet, it's pictures from a magazine spread. I don't know which. It doesn't matter. You know, at first I'm like, well, it's really interesting. You know, he got kind of his barrel chest. It reminds me of an old-school actor. You look at his face. Look at his damn face.
Starting point is 00:03:42 This is the dumbest-looking man I've ever seen in my life. The dumbest looking man. He, he, these faces, and it's not the first time I've seen this. I mean, look at that, look at that expression. Look, this is not, I'm not saying he doesn't know, uh, you know, you know, you can't name all 50 amendments of the Constitution or whatever. He hasn't read
Starting point is 00:04:04 Chaucer. I'm saying this guy looks like if you asked him how a toilet works, he would just stare. That's my level of intelligence. Hey, come, how do we figure out this kid's really a gifted kit? Well, ask him how a toilet work.
Starting point is 00:04:20 What else would you do? Boop go down. It's like how they do they pick the dolly Lomber. Just put him in front of of a toilet and see what he does. See if he can make sense that is crapper. But, yeah, but he looks like he doesn't, it's just an old school level of dumb.
Starting point is 00:04:39 Like when you watch like the Sopranos or like, you know, the Godfather even, they're like not, again, they're not, you know, Rhodes Scholars, these characters, but they have conversating. But when you watch an old mob, but these guys, like there's always these lumps, right? Like, well, who's that famous of Luke Grabrazzi from the Godfather? was the one guy, uh, uh, you know, like, kind of like, it hurts to even, like, you know,
Starting point is 00:05:02 dink. Like, thinking actually hurts their brain. We don't see that anymore, but that's what you see when you look at Jeremy Allen White. Right. And look, if it was just this, would I be going on crazy? How do I look to people? I get it. I'm not just going off on one tweet.
Starting point is 00:05:18 Can we pull up, is why I have a here on this button? No, okay. So this is, this is a Calvin Klein billboard. I believe I saw this on, like, Sixth Avenue or something for, like, a few months. This is a Jeremy Allen. Now, we've all seen the Calvin Klein billboards. It's men, well, you know, when they are men, let's just say, it's, you know, they're, they're showing their butt, your ass, you know, the jeans. They're showing the bod.
Starting point is 00:05:43 It fits nice. Maybe it's coming down. It's, it's, it's, it's, they look, he looks like he's just a candid picture of like a fucking stalker took of him trying to get changed in the street. before, like, an acting interview. Like, it looks like Jeremy L. White showed up, and he's like, hey, I've been on Shameless with the Wynel family, where I play The Genius. But I'm not like, I'm still not, what they call offer only, where you just get offered parts.
Starting point is 00:06:10 I have to audition for the bear, and he showed up for the audition, and he just changed on the street and took the picture. That's how dumb he looks. This can't be an accident. His face is filled. It's a mix of stupidity and shame. Bewilderment at the idea of where, like, I'm a. What is...
Starting point is 00:06:27 It's a camera. What is I'm doing a camera? Well, he's not mad that you're taking a picture. He doesn't understand what a camera is. That's the level of stupid on his face. He looks like he's trying to take a shit and he doesn't know how. Right.
Starting point is 00:06:39 And also, he's been, like, beaten in the past for doing it. Yeah, for asking how to take a shit. I just don't want to make a firm mistake again. I don't want to do the wrong thing. I mean, I just... He's attracted. His face is attractive. I'm not the person to judge, Jeremy.
Starting point is 00:06:55 You know, he's, in a lot of ways, he's like a physical Adonis, maybe. I don't know. He's got a great bod. I'm not a woman. But, yeah, he's got a nice body. I think he's reasonably tall enough. I know women might tall. He seems tallish.
Starting point is 00:07:07 I mean, he's got, like, that kind of old school, like the, his nose is kind of sharp. You know, like an Italian guy, you know, like they kind of, he should, but he looks like a, like, like, a handicapped person. And it just, and it's just, it can't be a coincidence that keep making it like geniuses. This is some kind of sciop. They want to rewrite history and narratives for us. This is like, they don't need to go and write Beowulf because they don't read Baywolf, right? It used to be like, you know, actors, like, yeah, if you saw them talk in an interview,
Starting point is 00:07:37 it would be clear that they were as dumb as rocks. Right. But like, but in the movies and the characters they were playing, they were playing a genius, they had gravitas. Like they knew how to deliver a line like a genius would. Yes, yeah. Dude, I love the Americans. I don't show up about that.
Starting point is 00:07:53 and Matthew Reese, the guy who plays like the main guy, is like this nuance and like subtle character who's a killer but also like sharp and he's kind of got these like quips and whatever all the things that are making you go to this guy and you hear him in an interview and it's like he's you know but they don't
Starting point is 00:08:10 have to do it right? They have gravitas I'm saying that I don't know if Becky Reese's I don't want to talk shit I mean like the guy he doesn't seem like I'm going to say he's brilliant but he knows how to have him part bravatos but you watch this guy in these shows that's the other part is this good point he's not doing that
Starting point is 00:08:25 and the show he's just going like if the show is about him being a cook he's like we need more stagoms I would get him a stagops that's what he thinks like a top chef does I know Gordon Ramsey is a thing but I mean the level of like I remember watching that show
Starting point is 00:08:40 because he just seems to scream like it's all wrong all right it's just like then why would they do this they want to confuse us and that sounds simplistic but that's actually the most
Starting point is 00:08:53 important because so much like the discourse and we'll get to the whole east wing for instance and tear down and stuff and some other stuff that's going on this week right i don't care anything about politics i don't care you know who who my point is but like you notice what people talk back and forth about it is these fine points that like what are we talking about that right and like they want that to be they they they just want you and stop quest like they don't want you to have a firm ground to even have a debate anymore. That's what they want 10 years from now.
Starting point is 00:09:25 They want to replace you with an Amazon fire tablet. Right? And like it's going to be easier when you just don't like when you watch Terry Gilliams Brazil you're not like, oh, this makes sense that the people who control me are smart. It feels like
Starting point is 00:09:41 these satires are all well it feels arbitrary who controls everything, right? But that's not an accident. Because when you think there's a change you can be, well this doesn't seem fair. They want a world where that doesn't come up. They want a world where you go, well, I know, if I try to bring this, if I try to bring this up, I'm Jeremy Allen White in your example.
Starting point is 00:10:00 I know it's getting a little confusing now, but that's how it's going to be. Because it's, I'm saying he's dumb, but they also want to make you, they want to realize that that's a genius. Yeah. And that you're also like, hey, I don't know how to take a shit. I was, apparently, I mean, I thought I did. I was beat pretty hard last time I tried. I did the wrong thing.
Starting point is 00:10:21 I don't want to do the wrong thing, but I know if I ask again, I'll just get hit again. That's the problem situation we're in. That's, like, this is what they want. We're not, maybe not quite there yet, but that's what they want. That's why Jeremy Allen-Ly's very valuable to them. And why do you go, why do they keep casting this guy in things? And he's good-looking enough for so we're a lot of people. Jacob Alorni's quite handsome.
Starting point is 00:10:43 Right? Yeah. When he gets roles, I guess, whatever. Why do all these genius characters just keep going, fuck, fuck, fuck. Right. No, my point, but why. Because they want this. They want,
Starting point is 00:10:52 they Barry Cogan plays like fucking swab guys now somewhere, right? Right. It's like, that guy's like a weird, like, that guy should be playing like whoever like Dustin Hoffman played 30 years ago. Right, yeah. He started off kind of playing like ghoulish characters, which was great. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:08 He was great in those roles. Right. But him playing creepy ghouls. Right. But now they want him to, oh, you know, he's a date to Green a Carpenter. Oh, the girl was in her underwear and that's now this week. Which was like, yeah. And everyone's like, is she hot or not?
Starting point is 00:11:20 I don't know. Why don't I care about Barry Coogan's girlfriend? Yeah. You know what I'm talking about? But this is what I'm saying. It used to be like Paul Newman, Robert Redford. Things made sense a little bit. Right.
Starting point is 00:11:31 Oh, he's dating and who's a, he's dating and Margaret. Quite attractive. And like, it's just, and it's like, but it's just, but Paul Newman never looked like this on his face. You know, in HUD, he played like kind of a, not the smartest guy. HUD, he played like a guy who was like a, like, his dad owned a cattle ranch. and not a particularly huge one it was kind of not doing great but he was like the guy who was still like
Starting point is 00:11:53 you know he helped with that but he was like he was banging all the all the wives around town he was like a dumb jock who's just like he got getting in trouble because he's banging everyone's wife and it was like hey hud this is getting we're starting to get sick of this
Starting point is 00:12:07 and then the movie kind of turns through the thing about because the cows getting hoof and mouth disease and the FDA or someone comes that's like whatever the agriculture or whatever does this comes down to you have to kill all the cows. And I guess that inspires him to, like, grow up.
Starting point is 00:12:23 But he's playing, like, a not-sharp. He never looked like this. I don't care what which role we're talking about. Yeah. I think you're onto something here. It's for the purpose of confusion and demoralization. They just don't want... I mean, look, you could also argue that I'm losing a grip on reality.
Starting point is 00:12:41 But I'm starting to go on Twitter too much, and I just spent all my time staring at Jeremy Allen White, and I won't admit to my wife that I'm gay. That's also possible. I don't think it's true. I don't think I'm attracted to Joe, but I've been staring at him and the right of his picture of him
Starting point is 00:12:55 and his underwear up for the past 10 minutes. So whatever, I don't know. I feel like I do feel like I'm onto something. I feel like they don't want anything to make sense. Um, but you look, what can I do? I'm going to try to meet Jeremy Allen White.
Starting point is 00:13:13 Maybe they should have him on the show. I mean, do you think he would do the show? You think we get on and show? show him. Can someone show it? Can someone clip this? Can someone do the work I'm supposed to do for this show and for me and clip this and sent it to him and say, hey, this guy was talking about you. Do you find this flattering? It'd be funny if he's not dumb at all, which I don't think he is, to be clear. I'm not saying he is dumb. He might, I mean, if he wasn't, but if he's not, he's such a good actor, it doesn't make sense that he sounds away. He would
Starting point is 00:13:46 be so much better in my opinion but whatever my point is someone show him this if you could and say hey do you find this flattering or offensive do you want to react to this i don't know i'd love to get his take on this i need to get more funny to start a feud with jeremy allan i mean it wasn't the point i made if i was if i was good at this that would be the point of this but that point of this was just to just spondificate about how he's going to look at this and he's just what is this fat idiot saying about me i look too stupid it and on the billboard they pay me two million dollars to be on yeah i'm the moron i'm the big idiot fat guy well played and i'm like oh i don't know they want they want they what they want
Starting point is 00:14:29 but it begs the question why would you pay someone two million dollars to do this and then choose this frame why if you ask him that he'd say what you say no no now i'm just eating my own I'm just eating my own debate I'm just saying but no but yeah he's just going to be funny he's like I don't know I don't think about it I just look hot but I don't think that's the case
Starting point is 00:14:51 I think he actually well whatever anyway that's just food for thought we'll move on it's not the Jeremy Allen White Roast show all right before we move on just make sure if you're not already please subscribe to the show and you know like it and you comment
Starting point is 00:15:09 Make some comments, you know, talk about what you think is Jeremy Allen White. You know, and even if you're, and come to YouTube, even if you listen on audio and make your comments. Pick your favorite Jeremy Allen White picture and tell me where to go and find it. You know, because I'm not sure we can put links in the comments of a YouTube thing. You can pick his rules, but I'm not sure we're not any movies. And if you have any, if you have any photos where, you know, showing a little bit more skin, if you know what I mean. I'm not, that's not what I'm, I'm not gay. DM, I'm, I love my wife.
Starting point is 00:15:36 Anyway, we also have a Patreon. Patreon.com. If you go on there, there's an extra episode every week, and it's only like five bucks a month. And I think, you know, you're only, maybe that's a lot of money to you, maybe you, whatever. I think it's reasonable. It's a reasonable exchange if you like it. So that's there. Anyway, let's move on.
Starting point is 00:15:55 So we have this White House, what would you call? How would you just say it succinctly? It's change. You know, change is the only constant. Sure. And the White House is changing. it's it times they are changing it's a lot of people have been showing pictures of the wreckage right do we have that up here or no of the demolition you pull that up people but like look so here's what's going on
Starting point is 00:16:20 the what trump is i guess he announced this recently and we all made fun of it and i didn't you know quite know what it meant but he's like we're going to make ballroom here and everyone was kind of laughing that's why Kimmel got fired for for a minute and then brought back you know i got just i don't care whatever actually happened but yes this is the That's fine, right? Just leave it. That's fun. So this is the, this is, everyone freaked out this week because this is these pictures
Starting point is 00:16:43 started coming out, and this is the White House being torn apart. And you know, I think you're wondering, like, what, what would you have to offer this, this debate about whether this should be torn? And I'm honestly not even sure. Some, you're actually not on bad footing there. Like, why would I be talking? Because I'm actually not even sure what the back and forth is, right? Like, people seem to just be, like, mad that he's doing it without congressional.
Starting point is 00:17:07 approval, which I don't know. Do they need it? Do they not need it? I don't know. Like, they're all valid questions, I guess. There's going to be a lot of Heming and Hong and free. But here's my thing. Here's why I brought. It struck me.
Starting point is 00:17:21 I don't actually know what I, or it didn't until this happened, realize what the east wing of the White House is. I literally thought, do we have a, this is the white, do we have a picture of the White House first? Like, is that the, is that the White House there in the photo? Right.
Starting point is 00:17:37 that one look like that one that's is that the west wing or the that's just the white mansion right what you see when you look at the white house is my point is just i think most of the time people are looking at the center of it yeah i'm not sure what you think the white house is i'm not saying many people will know i'm not like breaking ground here they know but you you have like the the building that we think of as the white house and then just and you think well, which one's, like, so you have the West Wing and the East Wing, right? And the, you know, and the President works in the West Wing and what happens in East Wing, I'm not sure. I didn't know until, I knew there was a West Wing, is my point.
Starting point is 00:18:22 And I only knew that, but I only knew that after a few years of watching the show the West Wing. I mean, when I say I know it was a West Wing. Do you know it after the first season? Well, we'll get to this. And people are people going, what the hell are you talking about? Well, you sound like you're having a stroke. but I want to get this idea across because I don't think
Starting point is 00:18:39 I'm actually like a handicapped man in the brain I don't think I'm stupid I mean people think overstate my intelligence sometimes but that's stupid and watching the West Wing and Donna and Josh you don't know it doesn't matter where they are
Starting point is 00:18:52 I remember she was waiting and she's his assistant and it was established I was waiting by this window to see you come up with a parking lot and I just got curious one day and I'm like where would she be standing in the building
Starting point is 00:19:04 and I looked I was like I mean, this is like years ago. I'm looking at the freaking thing. And I see a picture. I'm like, oh, it's a whole different building, the West Wing. It is? I thought it was all connected by, like, colonnades. It's like a different building they build.
Starting point is 00:19:19 And then they build, like, a pornico or something that connects it. Okay. Or something. Like, you know what I mean? So it's like, it is kind of part of the complex, right? Mm-hmm. And I've known that for years. And, like, well, all right.
Starting point is 00:19:32 But here's what's crazy. I still didn't know it was a, separate building called the East. I thought the resident was the, I thought the main thing was the East Wing. Oh, this is the West Wing, which is sure occurred to me. I know I'm dumb, but like, so the mansion, the middle thing is just a residency. And then you have the West Wing. People were, the, I don't even know what happens in the East Wing. Apparently you can't have parties in there.
Starting point is 00:19:53 It's a museum? I don't even know. I'm saying people lose in their minds. A bad thing that's way off to the side. If you go to the, I've been to the White House twice, not inside. But like, on Boy Scout trips, And we went to the gates And we're looking for Yeah, we're standing there for a few minutes Because I was younger I'm still probably cool if I went now
Starting point is 00:20:10 Oh look, it's the thing I know about The White House, you know, you're looking at it But you don't see Like that's just behind the trees and shit You don't even know it's there A lot of the important stuff Is in the West Wing Well someone's like
Starting point is 00:20:24 Oh yeah, imagine the West Wing But yeah, look, it still wouldn't make a difference maybe But like if they said to you Like the Oval Office is gone You'd at least go like well, interesting. Right. I've always known
Starting point is 00:20:35 the White House to have an oval office. It's in every movie, right? I'm not saying it doesn't matter. I mean, maybe I'm saying that. I can't imagine that I'm so much less informed
Starting point is 00:20:47 than most people. I don't think this is, though, because we have a chart here? Yeah. Bring up that chart. I don't think they always exist. I think, I mean, they say they say they do.
Starting point is 00:20:58 And people are acting like, like he's like he's shilling the Constitution and set on fire, which he will I must say he won't do that but this is a separate issue this is like I can't
Starting point is 00:21:09 also on top of there are legitimate things where they've rebuilt this shit this is only like goes back to like 19 I think they built it in 1900 and they renovated in 48 like heavily
Starting point is 00:21:18 like whatever I don't know should you tear I don't know I'm not a lawyer or if I mean I know Jackie Onassis got really upset
Starting point is 00:21:25 about like Penn Station closing and so much so they made sure the Grand Central Station didn't close down in New York City I would have been more like, hey, can we get a new war on commission? You killed my husband, right?
Starting point is 00:21:39 I would have put more emphasis on that. Hey, can we find her who actually killed my husband? I guess she's been through enough. Whatever, I'm saying, but she, like, there's a whole preservation thing that's happened since then. You could argue. But I don't know. I just don't think people understand what the West Wing or the East Wing is. Yeah, I mean, a lot of it seems to be, like I have a list of rooms here.
Starting point is 00:22:00 There's a garden room. I've heard of the Rose Garden. I haven't heard of the garden room. Yeah. East Colonnade, visitors' entrance. It's a lot of the visitor stuff seems to be there. So is that where you go? There's a theater where you watch a video
Starting point is 00:22:14 welcoming you to the White House. This does make sense because I always did think, like, what? So they're going to, like, you're going to go on a tour. I've never been on the tour, but you go on a tour and you're showing up while, like, you know, whatever it would be at the time, Andy Card, you know, You know, if you watch, the chief of staff and they're having these, they're talking about Cuba and nuke in Cuba, whatever they do in the West Wing, and people just showing up for tours. But I think, you know, I'm sure they do it off hours.
Starting point is 00:22:41 But the point is, like, it just seems weird to be even showing up in the same, like, I, but no, that makes sense they have a separate visitors thing where you, you go over there, way over there. So, like, even if you are a weird lunatic, we have you over there for a while, and then we bring you over the for the tour over there, right? Yeah, we get to, we get to, we get to scope you out a little bit. Right. It's kind of when you go to, you know, some theme point. and it's like this stupid, you know, when we went to the World War II Museum and we watched a dumb Tom Hanks movie.
Starting point is 00:23:06 Right, remember? Oh, you didn't see that. It's not great. It's fine. Tom Hanks, he's a pro, but whatever. My point is like, yeah, so I don't really, it doesn't matter if that gets torn down and rebuilt.
Starting point is 00:23:16 Like, well, I'll admit a lot of shit. I'm not like, I'm not sitting here and the one like, don't want you, Trump or this and that. Whatever. There's a lot of divisive stuff happening. Very spicy time to live. This doesn't seem like one of the big things. Apparently, they're Nixon.
Starting point is 00:23:30 Yeah. There used to be a swimming pool in the White House. And he turned that into the press briefing room. Right, right. And then, look, he put in... I'd be pissed about that if I were the next president. Sure. Well, you know, I mean, I don't know who...
Starting point is 00:23:42 Probably his wife. What was his wife's name? You remember? I was one to say Cynthia, but no, that's the sex of the city. He was banging her. It's the worst kept secret in D.C. or whatever was probably. That Kennedy was just banging hoars in the fricking in the pool. right yeah I mean it was a new story that came out like 10 years ago
Starting point is 00:24:02 about some new hoe do you think that's why he did it he was like I'm gonna cover up that dirty dirty boys why I think his wife might be like I know what I go these parties I know what I know what these East Coast elites don't love us but I don't invite to some parties and I know they were fingering these assistants down there in the pool no more pool you're not gonna be swimming with always in the pool
Starting point is 00:24:25 well the president finally I finally get the finger a hole my dad don't let Orangefield be sold so I don't know it's like yeah I mean that might be why the coverage there's also there used to be I know Nixon put it put in also a bowling alley
Starting point is 00:24:41 right yeah and then famously I thought he tore that down to Obama to put his basketball court but then apparently I mean maybe that I don't know where that is that in the east I don't know where they put it because I someone made a point that that was like a $200 million it couldn't be
Starting point is 00:24:57 I think they just lied On all sides Like Obama's basketball court Was 200 million That's crazy if it's true I'm not surprised It's just Seems like too much
Starting point is 00:25:07 Right For basketball court But whatever It doesn't matter It's true or not Nothing's real anymore But you know So I don't know
Starting point is 00:25:14 I just I know it seems Like I'm just Ranting about how I didn't know And no one else could know I know I could have a blind spot But like they don't teach This in school really
Starting point is 00:25:23 Unless my schools just sucked I did go to like weirdly not grade schools I went to this Catholic school that, like, I've said before, but, like, if you weren't on, like, the honor roll track, and I never did my homework, and whatever, I mean, it wasn't as smart as them. I think that wasn't smart, but I was lazy. Whatever, it doesn't matter. But if you, they have, like, decent teachers for those people, and if you were, if you had, like, a C average, they would give you, like, retarded people would teach you. It was weird.
Starting point is 00:25:49 And then this, whatever. So maybe that's not a blind. Do they teach you in school at any point? Um, you, you get certain, like, highlights. You know, we, the Lincoln bedroom comes up. Yeah, but that was, wasn't that because, like, they were trying to sell, like, wasn't it under Clinton or something? They were trying to sell a raffle off, like, raffling off, like, you stay in a Lincoln bedroom. Oh, right.
Starting point is 00:26:11 There's a whole big controversy. And then, like, wasn't he banging Lewinsky in there or something? Who knows? But, yeah, you're right. They bring up, that would come up. Yeah, like, right, the Lincoln bedroom and then, you know, the Oval Office, obviously. Right. But, like, but, yeah, like, you don't get a full.
Starting point is 00:26:28 overview. I get it. I've never met a person who was really into the layout of the whole White House. I mean, it makes sense. I think most teachers know that like, look, we're lucky if you remember the Bill of Rights. Right. Right. Like, you know, I'm not, I'm not going to spend a whole, like, a whole day or two talking about the physical additions and layout of the White House complex as it were. If they really care, they can look it up on our own. And no of us did. Right. Because it's just like, why would you emphasize this? But, like, how can just ever really be that pertinent. Well, weirdly, it is kind of now. I mean, at the end of the day, it doesn't matter. Trump's going to do it, and people get mad, and nothing's going to happen. Um, so it doesn't
Starting point is 00:27:06 matter or matter, but like, matters like in a, in a one-day context, kind of. It is an interesting time to be alive in the sense that, like, you know, everything matters a lot for one day. It's kind like that Andy Warhol thing, but with topics. Right. You know, like, who would have thought the physical layout would matter? It doesn't. Um, but yeah, I mean, apparently he's getting from private Donors, that's part of the gimmick, right? It's going to cost like $250 million or something to do. Damn. A lot of money.
Starting point is 00:27:34 A lot of money. Did you hear what private donors? No, I mean, that could be interesting, but also, like, yeah. I mean, is it donors or is it one? And this is the one you were talking about last week? I don't know who. The one you were saying, you know, which countries you love the most? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:27:49 I'm just saying, look, at the end of the day, he should be getting something out of this. I mean, even just for him. you know what I mean yeah I mean what is the downside well if would this person I'm trying to speculate here now I mean should he go through Congress I mean
Starting point is 00:28:08 oh he should go through Congress I agree if he did if that was the case before no I don't know like you could there's weird things of this kind of stuff sometimes you find you say that and someone says well no actually because of the uniform executive edition real estate additions clause in 1976,
Starting point is 00:28:29 they don't have to. Oh, okay, I'm a moron now, right? You try to get into this stuff too deep in the weeds and everything's designed just make you just go away. But, you know, but in the general sense, yeah, all right, I guess Congress should get involved. But am I more passionate about that fact when it comes to war? I would say yes, and they don't seem to get involved with that as much.
Starting point is 00:28:51 it seems like with wars they just get to do what they want now with presidents and then like you know they'll get like a loose approval maybe for some stuff not other stuff I guess they did approve Iraq but then not Afghan you know whatever some of this stuff gets approved the drone strikes Obama did again I don't want to keep bringing that up like I mean look Obama did that I was going to say a lot of good not I don't know if he actually did that much but I think even if he meant well a lot of drone strikes right and why about keep catching streets on the come pocket about drone strikes because that's all I know is that in cash for clunkers
Starting point is 00:29:23 what would you add to the White House if you were president what's an interesting question we'll pivot off this me ranting about I just don't know what this is we'll move on you're right what would I add to the White House
Starting point is 00:29:36 you're telling me you knew what the White House I don't believe you you're lying it's all the sign that makes me look I'm losing my mind no you're gonna try to make a fool out of me you didn't tell everyone you could have just done everyone else and quietly kind of to yourself go,
Starting point is 00:29:52 oh, I didn't know that, and not make a whole podcast episode about how you didn't know and no one else could have known. But what, I did? That's what I had done? So, yes, what was your question again? What would I add?
Starting point is 00:30:04 If you were president, what would you add? You mean, like, kind of like one of my funding? It's a good question. What would you be your basketball court? Right, yeah. Like, so Nixon had the bowling alley, which does seem like a nice thing, right? You could conceivably, if Gorbachev comes over,
Starting point is 00:30:20 you can both bowl because there's nothing more weird than a good bowler anyway like you know if someone's really good at bowling and you're not pro and that's so weird it's like no one's gonna you can just kind of bowl
Starting point is 00:30:34 and have a few drinks and it's nice right versus basketball is kind of like you know you get fucking played he's like a fool with basketball sure he's got you're gonna get crossed over Obama's crossing over Z from China you know that can be really bad for diplomacy
Starting point is 00:30:49 but yes well you know whatever I'm just giving a nod to the bowling alley but what would my thing be what laser look it's laser laser tags fun laser tag's fun but no people don't seem to um think there probably will be a president who like puts in a paintball I was thinking paintball yeah and that could be fun and then also a secret service could train and it's probably he's a problem I know too much um and that's why I was a pre-president not because of the other reasons I know too much. But no, but otherwise, I'd definitely get elected, but I know too much. They won't let me. No, but like, I would just be like, this seems, like, paintball seems like something they could use to somehow stage, like a weird once-in-a-lifetime, quote-unquote, like, you know, a million to one odds, I get shot. Right.
Starting point is 00:31:38 You know, where like, oh, the paintball was low with a bullet. I don't think that's possible. But somehow, in my case, the paint will have a bullet in it. It'll work. I know what's like, I know. It's a pain hardened so much that it became. I mean, that, look, do you say that? These pepper guns that these ice guys have. I mean, it's pepper, but it's hardened, and it doesn't feel good. And I think it's kind of a sense you like a paintball gun. And this is like a tube and CO2 or something and pushes something. So, you know, that, you know, someone puts a, there's a funny thing.
Starting point is 00:32:10 Someone puts a ball ball ball barring in there. You're fucked. Yeah. So that's what I don't want to get that is my point. Um, that's smart. That's, you're thinking ahead. I think,
Starting point is 00:32:23 I think, like, an old school arcade could be fun. Oh, yeah. You know, some pinball, a, like, a, Pac-Man machine, maybe. I don't love Pac-Man,
Starting point is 00:32:32 honestly, but, you know, we love that, what was the game? We, like, bubble-bobble? Oh, oh, right. Bust-a-moove is fun. That could be a fun thing to add.
Starting point is 00:32:41 You know, that way, you know, like, some idiot, whatever, playing an arcade. Shut up. That's what I would say. Nice kids.
Starting point is 00:32:54 Go, take in the arcade. I'm not dealing with your kids all day. We're here to talk about whether you're fighting, let me fire missiles from your country. I'm not having your kids in the room. It's in the arcades. Why it's there?
Starting point is 00:33:04 I never get to go, so I'm too busy as the president. But yeah, it could be fun, right? Like a nice, like a, whatever, and maybe a little laser tag. Right. Could they put a gravitron in the basement in the White House? What's a gravitron again?
Starting point is 00:33:17 Or the wand. The gravitron was. that like thing at the carnivals I don't think they have them at like six flags type things they might sometimes have them as fixed theme parks but they're more of like when you have like a church carnival or whatever or town thing it's the one that's like
Starting point is 00:33:31 a like it looks like a UFO almost if I remember and it spins around yeah this is it yeah put a picture up oh man kids get decapitated in these all the time well hold on no that's not that's not it oh no the grabatron the one not the that's the different thing
Starting point is 00:33:47 okay on the bottom left what's the one the enclosed thing. Yeah, that's a gravitor. It looks like a fucking strip. You still might be able to get decapitated in anything. But this is more like you go inside of it
Starting point is 00:33:59 and it's... It's so funny about it. It first made your scandal that you put a gravitron in the White House and it gets decapitated by it. Well, you get the capitated in anything.

You get the captain playing bowling. No one says playing bowling, by the way. Interesting. But, yeah, no, the idea of this, this fun ride, I loved it, honestly, is that, like, it spins around really fast. You go inside and there's a kind of vinyl panels on the wall, and it starts spinning around, and you kind of, I don't think you even belt into it. Do you belt in when you go on Gravitron?
Starting point is 00:36:07 I think you just start spinning around gradually gets faster and faster, and the gravity, like, the force sticks you to the sides. Right. And it starts going crazy, and you're just stuck. you're stuck to the side and somehow gravity fails I don't think it's physically possible there's a motor fails you're fucked if it stops spinning all of a sudden
Starting point is 00:36:25 I guess you can go flying or fall that's probably where people could get injured right um I was asked them to double I mean a lot of these things these things are run by like the I don't know I've never met the people who work at carnivals honestly
Starting point is 00:36:36 they say carnies right all these people are all carnies I mean it might be true I just can't vouch for that how the dumbest people you ever met but that's the that's a Right? Yeah, the Carney stereotype. Right. Even to the day, people seem to look down on people who work these machines and yet people don't tend to die. Yeah. So if I have the White House engineering where the Army Corps of engineers just give it once over, I think I'm fine. Yeah. Probably, right? Airplanes don't just fall out of the sky. Why would the motor of this thing stop working just because, you know, some like, you know, the mirror of Qatar is in there. I'll tell you why. You know why. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:20 That's why. It would be an arcade. Maybe I don't put all my eggs in the best. Maybe a small amusement park type thing. Why not just turn it into a carnival that you can't go into? It's only for the people who work in the White House and the people we like. And I think I have the job already on the president. And my friends and my boys.
Starting point is 00:37:40 It's really, it's like it is an American thing, right? I guess we do it a lot. Because I'm saying, like, you know, you win, it's supposed to be kind of like, well, you won, but, you know, you're not supposed to, like, glow about it and be like, you know, and we're getting all the perks, right? Like, it's not supposed to be Tamney Hall where then we win the election and we, and we hand, we dole out the jobs and the, you know, the grift. No, it is, like, a lot of politics is that, but it's not supposed to be, you know, highlight it. It's not good for society, probably, if you make the front and center. But that's what I'm talking about. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:14 Like, if I'm, if I'm a run as a Democrat was just there. I'll say a Republican. People always call me a little, you know, S.J.W. I'm not. But, you know, I'm a Republican. I mean, not what Democrats is in my, in my little theme park. Unless they vote on bills I like. Like, hey, hey, uh, was this name, Federman?
Starting point is 00:38:31 Hey, John Fetterman, yeah. I'll give you more incentive to vote for a lot of poison inside, poison, poison, poison apples. If I can go my theme park. You know, so it's nice. It's a thing because people could, Remember people were freaking out about like the Eminems, the White House Eminems at one point and how they were given to people's like kind of social credit?
Starting point is 00:38:55 No, I didn't hear about this. I remember reading about this where it was like it became this kind of thing on Instagram. Oh, presidential M&M. I think this like was a thing in the first Trump administration. People, it was probably, look, I think they really, Trump is a divisive, he likes to make bold moves. But I do think a lot of stuff ends up being stuff that like was always, because I don't I don't think he invented them M&Ms. They were out for years, right?
Starting point is 00:39:18 These White House, but they look at the presidential M&Ms. But people are freaking out because, like, well, they would only give them the people, the people who curry political favor. This is it, yeah. I couldn't, I mean, I would never think to think, like, if I was a guy who worked at the White House, right, where I got to visit because I was part of some podcast that, you know, interviewed, whatever. I would never think to go, hey, can I get a pack of those, as M&Ms that you guys
Starting point is 00:39:41 heard you guys make? To me, it just seems like, it's like one of those things you hear about and school where it's like yeah they even make them for the president it's like a stupid gimmick that like a corporation does probably and no one no one actually cares but it's a nice thing but this became a thing because of instagram people like to show it like i got i have access i have the m&ms it seemed bizarre to me i never even think to ask it for him or or being it's cool i mean sometimes you keep like a like a security key from a hotel when you run a vacation just a little memento but i'm always about to throw those out like why am i keep you
Starting point is 00:40:14 it's like it's like that but that's my point and if that could cause a stir imagine uh being having me owning you know besides being president controlling this white house dean park that you you know because everyone's got kids in this world at the birth rate well we have all successful people seem to have kids it seems to something you do it's like the thing in the power they would bald with like have some kids people don't know you're gay or something shit right um and it's see you would think you don't care. I think it is all performative because the whole I thought the gimmick was that people, these powerful people
Starting point is 00:40:48 don't care about their kids. They're all too busy, right? This is why fucking Katz and the Craigle is a song. That's not written about some guy who, you know, some grave digger. That guy's around. You know? That guy is. Yeah, that song's about a mover and a shaker. Yeah. The grave digger shows up to your
Starting point is 00:41:03 ball, little game. You know, he shows up to your recital. It's a, you know, it's a vice it's the congressman. It's the staff or the White House who says, hey, you know what? There'll be a lot of the league games that I'm going to miss so let's not start a precedent here you know I got an important job you're part of my
Starting point is 00:41:19 life you're not my whole life you know the grave digger's like no let's hang out more and you don't want that I mean the other thing people complain is cast in the cradle thing do you want your dad to be the grave digger that's really the question people don't really ask that they think it's all my dad
Starting point is 00:41:35 loves me and kisses me and hugs me but that you have it and not like you know cool clothes your life sucks no one else is going to tell you that but me maybe a bunch of people they didn't tell me that as a kid
Starting point is 00:41:50 right oh you anything you want but make sure you have nice clothes or your life will suck people will not look inside you I'm not against your will look inside me but no they'll treat you like trash if you're not if you're not you know don't have the trappings right
Starting point is 00:42:06 right yeah apparently this is stored under Reagan by the way well the beans the magic beans yeah yeah so whatever i mean i think it started under freaking you know george washington some some weird corporo oligarcho techno fascist started it they all are don't not just frigin he was weird though i love how his big move was like i'm gonna fire all the friggin's the airfactor reunion guys and was like yeah is that is that what adam smith was leading with we this is how we this is that we reboot the economy we we say fucking we're gonna pay you 10 000 an hour to fucking make sure people don't
Starting point is 00:42:42 fall in the sky and you question it will kill you. I mean I'm saying everything that was wrong but they can bring that up a lot. My dad would tell me that. I said like he they all bite chicken and he won like it was some great thing. I'm like I get it. I get there's
Starting point is 00:42:58 a reason where they probably shouldn't have strike and maybe there was actually unpaid. I know I couldn't strike when I was in a union at the morgue technically I guess there's a similar thing because you have public safety issue but like it still seems like a weird thing to brag about. It's unfortunate they really they really just weren't getting paid enough or
Starting point is 00:43:15 something. Right. Yeah, and they do get like, you know, to this day, I think they get worked pretty long hours. Like, it's... Yeah, I mean, I'm not here with the fiddle for the... I don't know anything about these guys. I just feel like, you know, I get it. I was fed stories my whole life about, like, you know, the auto worker unions, like, you know,
Starting point is 00:43:32 you could... They would have four guys doing the job of one guy, and it'll be at the bar, banging some girl, and then the only guy would be stuck working, but he gets to do it the next day. And, like, There's a fucking bucking out. I was like, all right. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:46 I guess you, but then it does seem like a lot of our problems come from, it's like it's a pendulum. I get that sometimes they have too much, you know, oh, I want to live in a right to work state. Fuck union. It's like, I made a lot more money when I got into a union. Right. Like, it's the same job.
Starting point is 00:44:01 It does seem to work sometimes. I don't know. Like, it's, it just seems like when, you know, we have like the bill, you know, the most powerful, the richest man in America is a Chinese guy who was in Shanghai. not true what we're saying like there's a lot of wealth amongst people all the wealth is all by people who don't care about this country at all and I don't think a solution is not have a union I think and whatever I'm not an economist but yeah Reagan right sorry and I was the side but yeah he but he mentioned the M&Ms what
Starting point is 00:44:32 would you I want to know what would your addition to the White House be um I well I was thinking a petting zoo petting zoo could be cool well let's not just well past that that's actually a really cool idea. I mean, you know, it would be the best petting zoo. Why, you still get, like illegal things? Yeah, right, exactly. Things that are just illegal everywhere else. That's actually, look, that's great.
Starting point is 00:44:53 Because you don't, yes. Let's use this unhinged power for some good. Well, yeah, you can, you know, they can make an embassy. Like, we're in America, right? And so America's sovereign nation. It's all important. But when we decide to, that's China. Right.
Starting point is 00:45:06 Because the embassy, right? And all the other country. I guess it's international convention, whatever. it needs to have. But then you have that power, is my point. So you can probably also say, well, this is animal law doesn't apply in this sector of the White House. And the thing that's great about animals is that, like, most animals,
Starting point is 00:45:24 no matter how dangerous they are as adults, they're very, like, they're cute as babies. This is a great point. So you just keep perpetual baby tigers, you switch them out when they get too old, when they get too dangerous. This is a great point. Yeah. And also, because I remember I remember being fascinated by hearing by the food in the White House at one point.
Starting point is 00:45:44 It's what relates to that. And it's because it's weird. Trump loves to eat, but they don't emphasize any of this. But there was that movie The Contender, where Jeff Daniels was the president and trying to get Joan Allen, I think, to be the first female vice president. And he just keeps going, they make me these shark-sake sandwiches, you want one? They make them all the time. I mean, you can, like, the person can reason, I guess, have anything. Right.
Starting point is 00:46:03 And part of that is because, and why it's the release of this, I think the logic besides just, well, he's the, the, facto the king and he you know whatever it's not it's not proper but more so it's just him and the people around him you don't think it was not a restaurant that has to serve people you know thousands of people and like and be profitable it just do all and the same thing where your petting zoo petting zoo is have to operate on some condition of well we can't just keep getting rid of the babies every three months how could that but it's a white house right so you kind of can because you could just like you just declare this is this now goes to yosemite or something this vicious spider
Starting point is 00:46:40 So you could just have It could be a Just have babies Right So yeah That we were envisioned like a baby A baby petting zoo Right yeah
Starting point is 00:46:50 I mean obviously some of them Could be allowed to grow up Right You know like it's You know I'd love to have a red panda in there That means The Central Park Zoo has that We better get that
Starting point is 00:46:59 Yeah If you become president I'll be the first lady Whatever they call it Whatever Doug Adam Hoffer's gonna be And I'll make that my thing For you Well, you get to pick it, but someone's trying to tell me, no, no, we're going to have 15 red pandas, and they're going to be the butlers.
Starting point is 00:47:16 Like, that's already, that's already a thing. And if you don't know, red panders are like, maybe you can pull a picture up for them. It's not what you think. Well, again, I keep saying that a lot of these facts people might know, and they go, no, you're an idiot. We know this. Here we go. They're the best animal in the world. But look at this.
Starting point is 00:47:30 Yeah, we know what they have in Central Park Zoo. Look at how cute is. It's a little tiny teddy bear. They're amazing. I don't even know how it's a panda. I don't think people name things properly anymore. Like, I mean, I get they may be related, but that can't be a panda. That and a panda bear can't be the same thing.
Starting point is 00:47:43 Look at that. It's like a fox. That's going to be at the White House. It's going to be so amazing. And that's not even part of the zoo. Like, that's, that's legal. If the Central Park Zoo can do that, then we can just put those everywhere in the White House.
Starting point is 00:47:54 Right. So, like, that's, like, I'm yelling. I'm screaming. There's, like, interns and, like, people who work for the zoo. I'm screaming. And then I also have the other staff of the White House president. You understand. But we're saying that's otherwise illegal.
Starting point is 00:48:08 and just petting zoo. This is, this is, this is just the, the appetizer. This is going to be interested in our illegal petting zoo is that we have these lying around. That's how commonplace red pandas will be in the White House. Right. Yeah, it'll, it'll start like, you know, they're going to be in this wing or, or that wing, whatever.
Starting point is 00:48:28 Right. But eventually, like, you know, people, people, people forget about the story. The rules start loosening up. I'm going to lose people here. I don't want to lose people. I don't want this to happen. This is the way it always goes. You're going to start dying.
Starting point is 00:48:43 Because it's become so lax. You know what you know how it has just becomes like an exotic quarter's house? What's this thing? When you have like, it has to be here at a certain time. They come in and out at a certain time. And then, you know, your job is to make sure that this red pan and shows are back in this pen, the backstage pen, right? Whatever we call it.
Starting point is 00:49:01 But, you know, like the one, this is a show pen. And we have people coming in. And then when you're done, they come back here. and there's no wally gagging, right? That panda stay alive in that environment. Right. But I'm like, no, they just like, I wasn't lying about. So when they walk through, I go, I want to be a surprise
Starting point is 00:49:17 the way a cat can be a surprise to someone's house. Right. Oh, the cat's here. Nice. But it's a panda. And that kind of environment, you inherently have to lower the standards of what people knowing where they are. They get stepped on maybe.
Starting point is 00:49:32 Right. They make their way into the furnace. You know, I don't know. Like, they forget to eat. Right, yeah, things happen. It's hard to keep track of when they're eating or not eating. It's a big place. Yeah, no, it's a big, we're establishing.
Starting point is 00:49:44 The White House has the whole complex, you know, I didn't even know the Eastwood existed. It's going to stink. It's going to stink like shit. That's the thing. Maybe that's the only saving grace is that I don't like smells. I don't like this, I don't like this smell like shit. So I'll be like, it will just make them hate me more.
Starting point is 00:50:01 But I'll be like, look, all this, all the laissez-faire of bread pandas, but you better I better never smell it. Well, I was going to, no. So they'll have to kind of be, like, waiting, like, ninjas with, like, those fucking smell detectors and shit, make sure, you know, and they're just cleaning a shit up right away. Piss and shit. I mean, they probably piss and shit a lot. They're bears.
Starting point is 00:50:25 I mean, they're small, but just. Oh, yeah, I mean, we're going to have all the animals. Right. That's the right pan. I mean, yeah. I don't think anything else would be lying about, though, right? The rest of it will be in, in, I guess, the. wing, right?
Starting point is 00:50:39 This might need to get split up between the West and East wing, to be honest. Not the resident. So, like, oh, so you show out, I, all right, so you, we're going to have people coming, like, the granddaughter, like, some fucking congressman from Wisconsin
Starting point is 00:50:52 is going to, like, be the swing vote for some fucking, like, you know, we want to make cancer illegal or something. So we fucking need him to vote, and you're like, hey, why don't you bring your grandkids? Oh, I do have grandkids. Well, why don't you bring them down with their parents, I guess they're appropriate parents, where you can bring them yourself
Starting point is 00:51:08 I'll always be awkward even as a president I guess in this case I'm you're I'm the president's wife but whatever but I handle these things why did you come bring them and you know so it's not like you know and so these people who don't really know
Starting point is 00:51:24 the White House grounds that well like you have to come and like well have a map this is a shitty map we print that out how do I see the alligators well that's in the West that's near the West wing, and they have to travel through the residency or something. I don't know how this works.
Starting point is 00:51:41 It's going to become a real problem. Oh, that's amazing. What, you know, can you give me, like, five things that would be, like, five best attractions at your baby pettings? I mean, you've got to have a baby elephant. Holy shit. So we're getting, we're getting real here. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:59 We're going to have biggest and smallest. Look, I, this is actually you're, all right. Baby elephant, baby birds. I'm not having too much to say So name your five And then I'm gonna circle back on that All right, we got a baby elephant Yeah
Starting point is 00:52:12 We got a baby baby peacock Okay Um We got a baby We got a baby tiger A baby lion Oh my god Baby bear
Starting point is 00:52:21 These are these are You name the fight I guess This is what you would not Is a reason or illegal And like He's a problem I was talking a lot of shit
Starting point is 00:52:30 About how we can be I was gonna go that It's gonna be a scandal I'm being saying this to Congress. I got to be honest Mr. Senator. I don't want, I don't envision myself
Starting point is 00:52:40 being at this hearing. But I talked a lot of shit leading up to this petting zoo. I forgot and I, because we can just, I assume that the, you know, the various natural parks
Starting point is 00:52:50 that we have and subjugated zoos. Excuse me, what is that? Subjugated zoos? What does that mean? I'm not sure. Smaller zoos,
Starting point is 00:52:59 we can kind of strong arm, you know, to take our shit. Could we could make it so that we could basically keep this baby shit going, right? The cycle of babies. But I failed to think that my wife was,
Starting point is 00:53:10 and it's a prerogative to pick baby elephant is the first thing, which is like, where do you even get elephants? I don't think we have national parks that take elephants. So we're just, I think we end up killing, I don't want, even if I don't want to think about it. I want to say, even on a YouTube video or podcasts,
Starting point is 00:53:27 I'll just say, that we can't, we execute a lot of elephants. Because where else would they go? It's like when you put down an animal, like, well, if it's just a suffer, it's got rabies. Where do they go when they're on a farm? They don't be on our elephants don't be on farms. What? There's no elephants on farms?
Starting point is 00:53:43 I mean, where would they do? I mean, I guess that would be a heavy-duty plow. That would be one hell of a plow. I mean, if you're, if England, for instance, had elephants to pull plows for them, that would be a lot of corn they could make. That might have been made the Industrial Revolution happening quicker. Yeah. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:54:01 But, I mean, I don't think there aren't farms. I don't think, I mean, it would be funny if we said, hey, we're going to can't, we're going to be, we, I like to think we're good people. We have to be just the most strong armed presidential couple that will live. Just to make this, yeah. Right, it's always comes from it. We're going to waste all our political capital on this. I don't even think it's not political capital. We're going to literally, the, the threat of the military force on civilians will they have to be used in some cases.
Starting point is 00:54:31 it goes to be on political capital we have to tell farmers look uh you ethanol subsidies right there's like always a controversial thing right ethanol we know we we buy your corn and make ethanol and no one really likes ethanol
Starting point is 00:54:45 but like you know it's good because you get paid off it's like we're gonna take it away and we're also going we're gonna burn some of your fields when you're not looking if you don't fucking take these elephants everyone takes an you know
Starting point is 00:54:57 every acre every extra amount of acres gets an elephant and you take it on, right? And it's just part of it. And you can maybe use them to grow corn. How do we do that? I don't know. Figure it out.
Starting point is 00:55:08 They're big animal. They're powerful. Look, I mean, you know, when I was bringing up the farm before, I was kind of implying, it's a sensitive subject. Sure. But like, you know. Oh, that's a euphemism. Maybe you use them for meat. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:55:27 Self-sustaining. But this is an interesting thing. You know, this is like, I'm basically going to pitch this as a contemporary Garden of Eden. Sure, that's how you're going to pitch it. But I'm going to be in this weird, thankless role where, like, I have to explain, you know, these things don't tend to get expressly stated. That's the whole point. It's plausible liability.
Starting point is 00:55:46 So I didn't want to ask my wife what exactly she means because she has to tell them why she has to lie to you guys. So I thought she meant that we have to fucking force eat on the corn farms and they figure it out. but she actually meant we should eat the elephants which I didn't realize that's interesting though I mean why is this such the case that people don't do that eat elephants I think they're probably pretty tough they're all doing injured right but I feel like a lot of the things that make a thing tough is that the thing it moves the thing um is is the tough thing the muscle that builds right No, so, like, you know, an elephant's leg is so big that the part of the leg is close to the thing that moves the leg, the joint. But, like, also, like, a lot of, maybe a lot of relatively tender meat because it's just moving, it's the part that's not the muscle moving that leg.
Starting point is 00:56:42 I really don't know how muscles work. I'm assuming this is true, but, like, you know, maybe you get a lot of tender meat. Also, we'll tell people, at least. Yeah. This is going to be substance. This is going to become, why not give us the prisons? I mean I've tasted present food it's horrible Right
Starting point is 00:56:57 It's too much sodium Yeah like if they were given some elephant meat Like elephant steaks No it'd be so they're eating like the stuff Where I think it's certain about a sawdust It's mixed in with a quote unquote ground beef You're right? It's like it's weird like
Starting point is 00:57:11 What they call it like particles or something It's some kind of weird like fucking things It's not literally cardboard but it's some kind of weird I forget It's almost like styrofoam But it's food technically it's like it was wherever it meant me useful or something oh like Cillium husk type type type things you know cellulose and stuff like that cellulods you get elephant stakes
Starting point is 00:57:35 you know that's actually not a bad idea and it'll be a demand for it then that's the only thing people they stay endangered is that there's no demand for something you know right like if it yeah that's true when people eat beef is never going to extinct you probably think about it for a second it's never your mind you could argue that their lives are constant agony but they were telling you that
Starting point is 00:58:01 no no if the cat over said that to you no I guess I guess not that's a loophole I mean it really is I mean I'm not I don't want to did this I mean that seems
Starting point is 00:58:12 if a cow could tell you I'm in a lot of pain I feel like we wouldn't eat at less that does seem to be like the color off mark but you know whatever point is this is how we save elephants right and we can become overrun with elephants perhaps
Starting point is 00:58:27 I don't you know there's going to be giant ships coming into the harbor every every day we're going to like import so many elephants I guess from Africa this is going to be a disaster I mean the pandas have a problem breathing right
Starting point is 00:58:39 yeah they don't breathe I don't know why they can't just like artificially inseminate them you tell me they can't make a machine that go like the Sibian thing that's Howard Stern invented right that thing is it on with a with a with a I don't sure
Starting point is 00:58:54 you know the device it goes inside you they can't make that for a panda Howard Stern was able to invent it he's like a radio jockey that shock shock I mean walking the government for the panda thing whatever yeah you think that with our technology we would be able to inseminate just about anything by now that really should be our campaign slogan
Starting point is 00:59:16 right we can we're not the smartest we're not the we're not the best shape we know our kids are dumb we don't we don't make good science anymore and crops suck and people have cancer we can't say anything you will you use you show us a hole
Starting point is 00:59:34 we'll fill it you know what's the word ethically we ethically fill a whole hole so I want to make that clear otherwise it might sound like something else right and what you mean ethically
Starting point is 00:59:47 why just want to make sure they don't think we're doing that thing like this is a weird thing to be a weird thing to brag about I agree but it's a wild time so you know
Starting point is 00:59:55 that covers ethically fill all holes there's a t-shirt yeah I mean look this is the I'm going to bring this back up this is a red bag
Starting point is 01:00:04 and look at that little lazy panda I love it amazing do you have any idea what your policies would be as president oh god
Starting point is 01:00:12 I know this is this is it this is a policy this is I mean this would be so much about we just want that well we should at least
Starting point is 01:00:22 I mean I'm saying that I feel like we're getting rid of your stage and this is probably my point I think this actually is kind of a thing like similar to what I'm talking about with Jeremy Allen White, the genius the resident genius you know he should is either
Starting point is 01:00:33 is there a resident genius in America there should be they should because honestly we've been like a genius laureate right because I know and we haven't had that before I feel like we didn't need it because we did have legitimate geniuses who made stuff and invented
Starting point is 01:00:48 this stuff and but now if that's going to be if it's going to be the case where we're kind of dumbing down the country on purpose with Jeremy Allen white um we should maybe make him the first genius lawyer just so established so people don't get the twist that he's just a particularly dumb guy right we need to make sure that this is across the board now this applies to everyone he's he's not just a genius he would like have he's the genius and maybe we'll probably need one other guy who looks kind of like him to be the next genius and then you know We can stop talking about it after that.
Starting point is 01:01:20 But the point is this thing with like they want We're talking so much about the East Wing and this and that and Trump's did he dropped a big turd on Harry Sisson, right? He made an AI video
Starting point is 01:01:39 and it was and people like it, right? Do you have that by the way real quick? Oh. It doesn't matter. It's fine. He made a little Democratic kid who gets paid by the DNC or whatever to make YouTube videos or whatever were Snapchat's and Trump Is this the kid who's kind of a player? I don't think he's a player. Well, maybe, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:01:58 Point is, a lot of people know who you're a hairy system, but if you don't know, and Trump didn't like, you know, whatever, he made a video or someone made a video he retweeted where he's flying a fighter jet and drops just shit, not just on him, but like he's part of a whole bunch of people. Was it a no king's thing maybe? He's a no king's protest. I think there's no king's protest led by Harry's just in this environment in fantasy world and Trump just in a fire jet
Starting point is 01:02:23 dropping fire jets you just don't drop a lot of bombs I didn't think it's more of you shoot forward other planes but whatever you know he's dropping just gallons of shit I mean thousands of gallons of shit oh wow and it's just like you know we do have
Starting point is 01:02:38 I mean look do we have this thing we show I won't be I want to end with this because this is a i like jeff daniels i watched them on the newsroom on hbio which is an insane show but i thought he was good in it you a couple years ago got me uh for a bunch of years ago actually tickets to a broadway where he played uh to kill a mackenberg for my birthday yeah it was great great great actor uh and he got something to say about this video i'm talking about with the with the shit and the fire shed and harry sis and let's just pull this up for a moment um

Starting point is 01:03:59 quality of price. In line on C4. or in Magazan. like that, you know, the meme that he had where he was flying with the crown and the, you know,
Starting point is 01:04:15 spewing or excrement all over the people down below. The country, America. Yeah, I tried it. Would Lincoln have done that? It's an interesting question. I don't think Nixon would have done it. She's trying to save it and go, well, I don't think. And maybe I'm
Starting point is 01:04:33 crazy here. But if all things, I still think that's the craziest thing I've ever heard in my life. So you look like, we live in a reality where Trump, the president, we don't know what Trump's doing. You know, it's all wild shit. And he's dropping shit. And I think it's hilarious that he's dropping the shit in the kid. Like, oh, this is not the thing we, this is not the thing we care about.
Starting point is 01:04:54 It's like, it's either going to end well or not, but it's not going to be because of Harry's sister's shit video. But to look at that and go, would Lincoln do this? It's perhaps the craziest thing I've ever heard in my life. Would Lincoln make an AI video of himself dropping shit on Harry Sisson and a number of protesters? I don't, in a fighter jet. Would Lincoln be doing, would Lincoln have done this? Yeah, I don't know. These people, look, there's a lot going on with the presidency.
Starting point is 01:05:32 It's a very different time. It's very divisive, like the immigration stuff. And it's back and forward. Like, I mean, you go, I got to use immigration is a problem? Also, like, is it being handled ethically? And he's the legitimate questions. And people go, and they're not saying, you know, there's a lot of, you know, bad faith arguing back and forth.
Starting point is 01:05:48 And, but it's a very divisive time. It just seems crazy. And, like, these people, like, on the left, you know, he's Democratic, go, no, it's like they call him the liberal fascist, literal Hitler, and I only gets helpful or accurately. I mean, it's not, it's not, it's whatever. Like, you can't just call everything that, like, whatever. I'm going to explain myself on this. Point is, but, you know, but they act like it's like, you know,
Starting point is 01:06:11 this might be your last election if you, if you, if you, if you, if you, if you, if you get elected. And so I'm not saying that, but if you're saying that and then this is your, but then this is how you react. You know what I'm saying? Like he's like, it's like I go on. Look, I know it's all bullshit. Like, you can't see Lincoln doing this. It's going on. It's a guy who would tell you, this is the end of democracy.
Starting point is 01:06:33 And by the way, it's a video where he dropped shit out of a fighter. on to Harry Sisson, the influencer whose paper, would Lincoln have done this? Like, you know, it's just, I'm like, am I expressing this right? This is just the craziest idea of this. I don't know what happens to these people's heads. Like, if you think that the democracy is on the ropes, you wouldn't care at all of it.
Starting point is 01:06:56 This is not the thing you would talk about. You wouldn't, like, you know what I mean? And like, this doesn't seem to be the high stakes issue at hand. You know, I would think maybe the, you have. problem with ice raids. You know, and maybe, you would say, like, why are they wearing a mask? And someone might go, well, they've been wearing a mask forever. But that kind of discussion, right?
Starting point is 01:07:13 Right. And they go, you know, like, again, they have authority, but, you know, people don't know if they're cops, they're kidnapping them, and they're going, well, yeah, but they won't let them, well, they won't let them arrest them at the court house. Like Obama did, because it's the secretary of cities. It's a debate, right, about important issues. You're dropping the shit. With Lincoln have dropped the shit on the Harry's system?
Starting point is 01:07:33 It just seems like a... Yeah, I mean, in a... way it is like in a way it's I guess it is an appropriate question just because merely asking the question at this point is so absurd that it does kind of like highlight how crazy it's all become
Starting point is 01:07:47 but it's like yeah but it's strange like he's still like he's still in the mode of like how you might talk about like Bush term one or something right yeah you know where things are where things still were comparable
Starting point is 01:08:03 right yeah I think what's happened is in a lot of ways, it's like, and the Trump is definitely the spearhead of it, but I think other people, you know, the Democrats have tried to, like, keep up in their own way and weird ways. And it's just like, it's a lot of shit posting in real life.
Starting point is 01:08:19 And online, of course. And it's just a vibe now. So, yeah, I mean, of course, no, I don't think I think Lincoln would have done this. I want to make that very clear. I don't want to skirt the issue here. I don't think Lincoln would have done this. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 01:08:31 It's just, I mean, did you ask that about the immigration? It's not. If you said, hey, these guys are coming and they're wearing a mask and a van and it doesn't say ice on it, right? And so people don't know. Now, that also leaves that, by the way, you know, people are also following these vans around so they know.
Starting point is 01:08:49 And then they're going, no, we can't take people. So someone, they know their feds because they're following the van around. But whatever. I'm just saying, it's a complicated issue. But he's just, Jeff Daniels is saying this to you. We go, would Lincoln like this complicated issue? with Lincoln of having the
Starting point is 01:09:04 Unmarked van with Lincoln like the bang bus I don't know Lincoln when Lincoln not like Eisenhower not like Nixon
Starting point is 01:09:14 and she brings up Nixon she even like what the fuck are you talking about now and you go and maybe I make it quite clear I'm going to watch this here's the thing
Starting point is 01:09:24 is there is a song is this the song we interviewed Joan Baez for the Best People Podcasts we asked her is the same thing
Starting point is 01:09:32 the movements in the 60s and she said you know what is that the same girl from before yeah okay yeah so this is how he ends in your view or whatever that's the things but one of them we had each other and we had the music on saturday seven million americans found each other at the no king's protest and today thanks to jeff daniels we've got the music this is a song called i wrote crazy world okay let's hear i've seen a young girl smiling something he just said. I watched him fall into her pretty green eyes. His cheeks turned Valentine red.
Starting point is 01:10:14 He's asking, he's the Ricky Jervase thing when he's thinking about President Diana. He's looking over, like, that's good, yeah? Yeah, it's just like, so if it seems like, well, I think you're extrapolating, right? So he wasn't, you know, but no, this is what he thinks is you, if we're actually, like, if we're about the collapse,
Starting point is 01:10:32 into tyranny. I don't, I just, it's a cognitive dissonance going on. This was literally connected, this anchor,
Starting point is 01:10:41 just connected what's happening here to some of the best music of the 60s. Like, some of the best protest I didn't think on that level.
Starting point is 01:10:48 You're right so narcissistic. I'm basically jump biased. I don't know if you know what John bias is, but yeah, I'm basically her. Remember times they are changing? Right.
Starting point is 01:10:56 Well, why don't you listen to this? Yeah. And you want that new sound will listen. But no, but it's just like, I mean, like, look, the protest is called no can. I didn't think no king is a dumb name, but girls are being, like, it sounds like, it just sounds
Starting point is 01:11:09 dumb, but like, I get the sentence that you're trying to do, and you think that, or you think that, right? And I don't think people are crazy to be kind of concerned about, like, you know, the encroachment of whatever. I think norms are being shifted. Well, you're like, and some, look, and you could argue that, like, certain norms are part of, like, entrenched power. Maybe.
Starting point is 01:11:28 Maybe. Maybe. I mean, I could buy that more and tell me when you see, like, what? Whatever, but another point of conversation. The point is that if you believe that, and then this, I mean, I don't know. It just seems like this is, it's a very, like, this is we being, is this kind of like, is he the Jeremy Allen White for boomers?
Starting point is 01:11:49 You know? I mean, this all just makes more sense when you realize that the people watching this are like lying in a hospital bed. Right. Their kids aren't there. That is the only time I ever see, like, I remember the last time I watched like network news
Starting point is 01:12:00 or one of the time I remember, it was like my grandma dying. Right. And they were like, I literally said it like, I literally said out loud, who watches network news anymore? This is so bad. It's just, I'm like, and she wasn't the good grandma. It's fine.
Starting point is 01:12:17 But yeah, so I don't know. It's a very fun time. Can we listen to a little bit more of this? I just, I don't. This is the worst thing I've ever. Yeah, well, yeah, because it's this way we can just kind of cut it off because it might, yeah. but I've seen an old man walking
Starting point is 01:12:37 with his wife by his side I watched him reach down take her hand damned if I didn't cry it's so bad he's like he's like an okay guitar player Yeah. But, like, it's just so insipid.
Starting point is 01:13:03 It's just so, like, he thinks it's going to heal work. Like, there's a lot of, I mean, you know, fucking Steve Bannon's like, I don't know what, on what thing was watching interview. He's talking about it's going to be a third term for Trump. And he's like, what you mean third term? Like, well, I don't know. When the time comes, we'll see what happens.
Starting point is 01:13:20 Which just seems ominous. I don't know. He said something like, we'll figure out the wording. And what do you mean wording? But I don't know. I don't know. that's happening I saw an old man breathing
Starting point is 01:13:33 I mean I look at FDR had four terms we did pass an amendment because of it so it's like but it's not like fundamentally like at the end of the world you would think but like we know I know it's a constitutional amendment we're gonna do it you say don't worry about and he's fucking I don't know it just seems like this is not we're on different maybe it doesn't matter maybe it's all fake is my point which I don't want to do that I don't want to
Starting point is 01:13:59 be the guy who like every time you know oh you're excusing every norm trumps whatever i don't want i like to not be like anyone's anyone's goon right but these are gonna be people who like this is the end this is the end and you're gonna sing like you know i watch the old man it's pretty good right i'm like july it's insanity anyway we're a man with that country until you get elected And then we're going to be every country. We're going to be the elephant country. We're going to have to start wearing elephant clothes. I have to start making like hoodies out of elephant.
