Starting point is 00:00:00 Wait, there it is. Now it started. I wonder what you were about to say. Are we not starting this one with the number of the show? Oh, PKN 266. Thank God. Now we can talk. I'm like a Pavlov's dog. I can't start joking around until I hear what number we're on. No, I was going to joke because you were saying you're talking to Jackie about the impeachment thing. Yes. saying you're talking to jackie about the impeachment thing yeah and then uh i was saying there's way bigger news than that that i'll bring up uh after okay talk about that so yeah i think it's a mistake to impeach trump so clinton didn't actually yeah i don't think clinton came out stronger because of the impeachment i think that like if you go back and you look at how democrats
Starting point is 00:00:41 performed in subsequent like congress and House elections after that, they really overperformed, whereas most of the time they lose a lot of ground to the other party because people just get tired and they want to flip-flop. And I think a lot of people at the time were saying, yeah, that's because it really just made the Democrat voters at the time be like, we're on defense. We got to show up. Fuck, I'm vested in people who otherwise wouldn't have did. I don't
Starting point is 00:01:05 think that's the cause and effect here's my my take on it uh the economy did amazingly under clinton not saying clinton did it but it did amazingly during his term there was the whole dot com boom regular people were making lots of money right the economy's going up now but you don't hear regular people talking about millionaires at cisco like be playing ping pong with some asshole and he like I became a millionaire today I just got enough options and it happened anyway right now it's mostly rich people getting richer yeah and then the dot-com crash happened after that but when would you say that was like the dot-com crash
Starting point is 00:01:38 2000 and that's when W took office though I'm not saying it was W's fault. There was a 9-11 happened in there as well. But I think that he got beat up because the economy got beat up during his term. And that is what I think is the cause and effect, not so much the impeachment. No, maybe, yeah. Well, I mean, like, there is going to be a crash before the next election.
Starting point is 00:02:03 Like, I would assume, like, we're already so overdue for a recession. And if it does, like, there is going to be a crash before the next election. Like, I would assume, like, we're already so overdue for a recession. And if it does, like, he's going to be in deep doo-doo. I don't disagree with you. It's just that I thought we'd been due for a crash for two years now, and I'm starting to lose patience. Lose patience? I hope it doesn't crash. One of those assholes that predicts a crash for six years in a row then says, see? I knew it all along. then says see that guy who was it like the oak something Krugman he's like a New York Times economist who like has a bunch of followers but people meme on him all the
Starting point is 00:02:38 time for being just humiliatingly wrong every time he's got millions of followers always fucking wrong he's the guy who has the quote where he's like in two by 2002 we'll see this internet thing as no more influential than the fax machine possibly believe that even in the moment like it's just so silly in the 90s I didn't know in the 90s there were a lot of people who thought it was the next cb radio uh they they were like this online like people typing to each other is dumb it's not a thing that's gonna like catch on it's stupid it's it's the cb radio apparently in the 70s like moms were using it for entertainment to talk to passing truckers and other dads or whatever.
Starting point is 00:03:25 It was CB radio. And of course it died out. And they were like, you know, CompuServe chat rooms will do the same thing. But it turns out people like text. Yeah, it's easy, it's convenient. And it's really stood the test of time. When you put it that way, it seems so obvious.
Starting point is 00:03:45 I like it because I can disengage. If I'm on any kind of voice, radio, phone, et cetera, you have to get my full attention, and if you don't have it, it's completely obvious. If it's chat, you don't really know if I tune back in or if I'm a slow typer or if I'm also watching a video. It's all fine. That's why I'm a slow typer or if I'm also watching a video it's all fine that's why I'm staunchly against this new technology that's like so-and-so has read your message
Starting point is 00:04:10 like don't let me do this on my own time please like I'm sorry I might take it I disable that on my iPhone oh I guess I figured out maybe you can But my wife is like, I never know if you get your messages. It doesn't say red. And I'm like, huh? Yeah, funny that thing. Gosh darn technology. I'm as bamboozled as you are, baby. I'll go talk to one of the geniuses at the store.
Starting point is 00:04:46 You like jog ahead of your wife at the mall. I'm like, she's going to come in with a very simple question. Do not answer. That would be fun. I want to get that on video. There's a crisp 20 in it for you. Just tell us,
Starting point is 00:04:58 you don't know what the issue is. That's the best part. Yeah. I am also against the whole like he's right. Oh, and then to add to it, like your friend is typing right now. Yeah. That's not good. No, no.
Starting point is 00:05:16 I don't like that because I'll get sometimes like, even if it's something stupid where it's like, I'm in a group chat with my friends and they're coming over for a party and I'm like texting everybody what to bring. And then I realized like, I'm making this too complicated. You do it again. I need a little more detail than that, do it again. And by that time you're like,
Starting point is 00:05:32 well now I kind of have to send a long message or I'm gonna look retarded. Or like I was planning on going on a huge diatribe, ranting and then it just said, bring soda and beer or whatever it is like. Yeah, I don't like the pressure. I've been falsely accused before. I got into a political debate on Facebook And then it just said, bring soda and beer or whatever it is. Yeah. I've been falsely accused before. I got into a political debate on Facebook because I'm an idiot.
Starting point is 00:05:53 And the guy said something. I said something back. The guy said something. And I left. I was like, enough of this guy. And then I see in my absence, he's been going bonkers on me. Right? And some of the things are like i can tell you're writing but you're too much of a fucking pussy to get back to me because it says a friend is typing and it's
Starting point is 00:06:12 like yeah i was like i was literally not home for all this insanity that you spilled out there yeah france is he like is his uh let me guess his profile picture is him sitting in a car with sunglasses on, selfie. Probably. I don't even remember who it was anymore. It's the eternal boomer. He's just a... I don't...
Starting point is 00:06:33 Everyone sees the world through their own lens, et cetera. The conservatives in my world are filled with confidence, but not facts. And they love to shout... You might stop going on Facebook for political stuff. Oh my God, yes. And I just unfollow and I disable, but they keep popping up. and they love the show stop going on facebook for oh my god yes and uh you're here and i i just like unfollow and i disable but they keep popping up i have a thousand friends i can knock down 25 like whack-a-mole and i've got 24 more crazies just talking about it and they're always posting like
Starting point is 00:06:59 fake shit like oh look at this climate gathering they all left plastic bottles behind and it's from like a music gathering six years ago it's not the same people anyway bonkers uh and yeah he went you get that on both sides definitely like i'm sure it happens on both sides i get it posted like the obama like kids and cages things from 2014 and that was what sparked that oh yeah yeah you going on social media and looking at people talking about politics is like like everyone comes out of it knowing even less you get actively dumber the more you do it but hockey season's in like a month and so that means pre-season game philly already has its first preseason loss. We're kind of happy. Doesn't matter. Doesn't matter. You guys are.
Starting point is 00:07:49 But speaking of your second team news today between the Blues and the Hurricanes, I didn't know what he got. Yeah, the Blues traded Joel Edmondson, one of our younger defensemen and a prospect who this guy named Bach who might actually be pretty good. He's a winger and then a seventh round pick to Carolina. Carolina gave us a fifth round pick and Justin Falk. Oh, Justin Falk is a big thing. He was one of our he's like he's pretty he's better and we signed him for seven years. I'm nervous about that because he's 27. So it's not that bad, but not that bad for the next three years. No, not that bad for the next three years. Plus he's 27 so it's not that bad but not that bad for the next three years no not that bad for the next
Starting point is 00:08:28 three years plus he's good on the power play that's what we need i think we're the first team in nhl history to win the stanley cup while having while being negative on the power play not just not scoring on the power play but like letting more shorthanded calls in like every time it happened we'd be watching it like a watch party in the especially in the last series versus the bruins they'd get penalized like marsham would slash petrangelo and they'd be like all right two minutes we'd be like guys we just got to make it through this power play am i looking at dog number one or dog number two this is number two number two this is this is fozzy it turns out he was uh
Starting point is 00:09:05 he was a bit of a bad influence on the first dog for the first couple days now the first dog had only had like an accident like one pee in the house up till then and it was like uh i'm three months old not panicking kind of pee like that kind of like brand new environment i'm scared and then we brought him and immediately both dogs get along great they're having a grand old time and we just didn't want them to become little mischievous fuckers together and what i've found is if you don't watch them they will get into mischief immediately and so we're in the middle of crate training and last night i'm we made chicken wings we're sitting there we're eating and we let them run around in my living room, which is attached to my kitchen.
Starting point is 00:09:48 Don't fucking do that. Attached to my kitchen. And I'm sitting down eating. And I stand up to look. They're both just playing with the ball, fighting over it, doing that puppy play thing. And I go back down. I sit down and take two more bites of a wing, stand up, and there's a pile of shit in the corner that I couldn't see from there. And it was because this little guy started the party, and then Teddy was like, they're not going to get us both in huge trouble.
Starting point is 00:10:14 And so he shit too, but since then they've been good, and I think they got yelled at enough that they know that's wrong. But yeah, it's fun so far. They're doing really as good as I thought. Does Fozzie know that's that's wrong um yeah it's it's fun so far they're doing really as good as i thought does fozzie know he's second choice fozzie he does not he doesn't speak english he's not aware no he does not he is obsessed imagine if it was people you were adopting like you went home you bring like little macy or whatever the fuck her name is yeah and then four days later you're like all right lucy you can come too just like you know mandy she's really lonely so we went and got justin to keep right picked up an extra extra one and it's like i can't imagine what happens like like way back when your big dogs used to shit in the house because we've always
Starting point is 00:11:03 had more some dogs on the smaller side in my family and when both of these guys have a big shit party I imagine it's like a total of a third of what one great Dane makes because it's like Tootsie Rolls I hear you yeah I literally don't remember them ever pooping in the house
Starting point is 00:11:19 like even when we get them at whatever 10 weeks old you know they've got adultsized dog colons or whatever. But they have peed in the house when they were training, and that is a nightmare. It's like two cups of – Dude. Is it like you peeing? At least.
Starting point is 00:11:42 Usually Jackie handles all that problem, right? So I'm fortunate in that regard. But if she's not home, I'm little I think I usually Jackie handles all that problem right so I'm fortunate in that regard but if she's not home I'm like fuck this I'm just gonna sacrifice a towel that's my favorite I'm just gonna use it fucking bath towel stop the whole thing up put it straight in the outside trash can and and now the problem is 95% you know I it up with Windex and a paper towel after that. But yeah, you sacrifice a human towel. Yeah. That's the method. Well, that sucks.
Starting point is 00:12:12 Yeah, when these guys pee, it's like not much. But it's more the insult. Teddy, the one who we had initially, had the gall the other day. We were sitting down we just taken him out and he like went into piss pose and my girlfriend was quick on her feet reaction time mmm like a like a sniper and just screamed at him I scared him out of quick on their feet with reaction they're like the opposite of boxer then she was really patient yeah she was really patient let him finish and and then quietly brained him she was a quick scoper that's what she was yeah she 360 nabbed
Starting point is 00:12:55 that dog yeah i think that really terrified him and so he stopped before he could get going and we took care of that but i'm liking liking them so far. They're learning sit. They're learning, you know, kind of the basic bitch stuff. I already figured out up and around. It's going to be real easy for them because they already kind of start turning around on their own. If I just sync it with what they're doing now, they'll put that together. Maybe. Yeah. with what they're doing now, they'll put them together. Maybe, yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:24 Making them play on the hardwood floor, hilarious. Because they cannot get a grip whatsoever. But yeah, I'm loving them. They're pretty well behaved. You're making me nervous, stop sniffing. Are dog sizes and dog brains related? Because we had this topic about animals before. And you said yes, brain size and intelligence
Starting point is 00:13:43 are obviously related. and then you started listing animals and you're like elephants are smart dolphins are smart people are smart birds are dumb like so does there's a huge disparity in dog brains in size some are 10 times the size of others so a little dog's dumb no No, no, they're not dumb. Like, it depends. Like a Chihuahua, fucking retarded. Absolute idiot. Bulldog, pug, stupid.
Starting point is 00:14:16 Poodles, pretty smart. Bichons are smart. Hmm. Poodles. He's chewing on a fucking Lego or something something right now no i have a question for you yeah jackie and i got dogs a pair of dogs like you we may be a little bit younger and i think that while we didn't vocalize it we were kind of trying on parenthood to see how it fit has that thought entered your head have you guys vocalized it you look distracted as fuck what is your dog doing i was yelling for my girlfriend to be like
Starting point is 00:14:51 just watch him for a bit he's chewing shit all over because i did not puppy prep to this room at all they're not allowed in here uh no i i think that's probably like a subtext kind of thing like seeing how well we would do with this but it was just as much like wanting a dog like i they're they relieve stress they're friendly it's good to have around um they're always so excited to see you like i can put put in their fucking kennel for hours today while i was out doing stuff and get back and if you locked me in a room for hours and you came and unlocked it i would not be pleased to see you i would be like you son of a bitch what's wrong with you why would you do that i had to shit in the corner but no i come home and i let them out and they're just wow oh like to be a dog they don't even know what drugs are they don't need them like attention is their
Starting point is 00:15:47 drug and like basic bitch snacks like compressed chicken gizzard that's too gross to feed humans they're just oh man like sat in my cage for five hours pooped peed the guy who locked me in the cage came home gave me a piece of like turkey unseasoned it has been a day if only every day could be like this one yeah but i'm like man this place rules dude yeah so you know it's there's probably some subconscious thing for that and then also like my my girlfriend and a lot of women i think are like this they just have that innate nurturing like aim like jackie sounds like she has this in spades where just they're just like i just i'm getting stressed out i have nothing to
Starting point is 00:16:35 care for i have nothing to take care of i have nothing to give love to like you're an adult man i i cook for you enough you can like take care of yourself. And enough is enough. If you really want to, I'll let you blow me. That's not the kind of nurturing that's what I can offer. Yeah. Funny thing, baby. I'm tired of cleaning up after you when you shit in the house. Funny thing, baby. All my nurture receptors are in my penis.
Starting point is 00:17:02 If you really want to. Just laying on my back in the living room. My dick stopped. That's funny. are in my penis. If you really want to. Just laying on my back in the living room. That's funny. But yeah, I'm really enjoying having them. Wish I'd gotten dogs a little earlier. Yeah. Well, you just got the house fairly recently too.
Starting point is 00:17:17 That's true. Yeah, I would not have wanted them in my old apartment. They would have slipped down those stairs and killed themselves like right away. Do you have hardwood stairs or do your stairs have carpet on them i have uh like part of my upstairs is carpet and another part is hardwood like my dining room is hardwood my kitchen's hardwood my living room area is is carpet and then the stairs because i live in a ranch style home is uh carpet okay yeah our our stairs in this house are carpet because that's our preference so we have like a runner that goes to their hardwood but there's like a carpet runner in the middle oh yeah yeah and but in apex they
Starting point is 00:17:54 were straight up hardwood and they were tricky to navigate a little bit like yeah in socks yeah and even visually like ever see pictures of carpet that just shouldn't be on stairs? You know, because, like, it messes with your sense of perception. And, like, you can't tell where one step ends and one begins. And it's, like, it's a pattern. I think hardwood is comparable to that. You know, there's typically just grain running sideways. And visually, it's just one big thing.
Starting point is 00:18:22 So I like carpet on the stairs. Yeah. I like hardwood. Iwood I like obviously I want hardwood in my kitchen in my my dining room because the cleaning shit up off carpet would suck but I really like because my old car had leather in it and it was black with illegally tinted windows thanks retard you had it before me but i wasn't gonna pay to get that fixed i didn't do it i'm not paying hundreds of dollars to fix that but like during the summer you get in there and it's like if you're wearing shorts you you have to like stand outside your car for three minutes and let it cool down or it'll burn you whereas i got cloth in my
Starting point is 00:18:59 current one and because it was cheaper and i didn't fucking care it really is more comfortable in my opinion i i like it this is great it's gonna stain easier i don't fucking care it's a honda plus if it's like the tacoma that's kind of a stain resistant cloth with the stain obscuring pattern it's never been a problem what is it oh it's tan with squiggles all over it yeah yeah you don't even notice. And like you said, I think cloth is, now the truck is leather. I think it's actually leather,
Starting point is 00:19:31 not something supposed to be like leather like so many other things. But it has vented seats. So they help a lot. Like you crank the little vents on and then suddenly the seats are room temperature in a heartbeat. Yeah, mine did not have that.
Starting point is 00:19:44 Yeah, it's nice. And if you um like let's say you sit on the seats and you're sweaty maybe you entered the truck sweaty if you just lean forward a little bit it like blows air on your back and dries it off that's kind of cool it's like an air hockey table kind of um people know i was uh i was doing i used a chainsaw for the first time in my life a couple days ago. Did you get a safety lesson? Because they'll bite you. I did not. The guy I rented it from at Home Depot was like, he gave it to me, and he gave me the
Starting point is 00:20:18 visor and the hat and things. And the whole time, I'm treating it like a gun. Because I imagine it could cause a lot of damage just it's a chainsaw they're grabby and jumpy carry on yeah yeah and so the my my safety lesson was i went in i said i'd like to rent a chainsaw for the day and he gave it to me and he said there's this where you're holding it and then in front of that there's like a little guard that if you accidentally fall forward i guess with your hand instead of it getting chainsawed it like hits that kill switch and the whole thing shuts down okay and that was it he didn't give me any tips didn't
Starting point is 00:20:54 ask if i'd used one before and that was it so i got home with it i revved it up got it going and i wanted to take out a couple trees in my yard I got I've got one really big tree that I was not about to try and tackle I'm gonna pay people to remove that I would have destroyed my sunroom and so I went out there started cutting it down and it is first of all a lot of fun it is a good time it makes you feel cool as you're going through it. And it's also way more work and way more exerting than I thought because I'm like holding it up for branches and I'm like, this is a heavy thing to do over and over and over.
Starting point is 00:21:35 And then I felt like a bitch, because it's like, oh, would you rather go back and buy a hand saw? You pampered 21st century cunt. And so yeah, all of that went off without a hitch i got all the trees down down to the stump where i have to call and have like a stump company come and remove them my my yard and my house looks a lot better from the street view now because it's not as obfuscated with all the the trees i left a couple trees though uh i i gutted all of like the people
Starting point is 00:22:02 who lived here before like that whatever the little decorative shit with plants is in front of your house where there's either mulch or stone in there. Sure, the landscaping. They had... Landscaping, I'm such a retard. They had these really ugly square off-shaped shrubs and these stupid plants. I went low to the ground with the chainsaw
Starting point is 00:22:22 and just took all of those out. There's no plants in my front yard right now at all. Like gutted it. I'm getting it taken care of. And I, the two big pieces of log that were left, I didn't think to cut those into smaller pieces. Cause I was like, Oh, me and my dad, we can carry that. And we could not, they were, you know, so one of them was the size of my torso and head and wider.
Starting point is 00:22:51 Dude, my tractor could barely carry that. I don't know what you're thinking. It was a really big piece of wood. And then the other one is like five feet tall and big around. And I just wasn't fucking thinking. They were just laying in my yard. I returned the chainsaw and then like me and my dad were like oh and so and so i went we went into the smaller one which is like the v-shaped one it's like my torso and we go to to pick it up and we're like each on one on each side like trying to
Starting point is 00:23:22 reach out one side one of the v sides and then we've got the edge on the bottom part and we're like each on one on each side like trying to reach out one side one of the v sides and then we've got the edge on the bottom part and we're trying to throw it into this giant ass dumpster that i rented and it's like like a six foot tall dumpster to get it into to heave it into the container and so we get like right up to the side like shimmy and trying to get it and my dad like semi drops and slips his side and it pops me right in the head and oh it stunned me is the tree okay it slipped towards me and then it started to slip forward crushed my left index finger between the the log and the uh metal on the dumpster and like after that i was like a lot of pain but i was still thinking like if we put it down we're never gonna get it up so we heaved that one in there my
Starting point is 00:24:17 forehead was bleeding is your father strong like you uh he's he's a strong he's not as strong as me but he's a strong guy um so my uh he strong as me, but he's a strong guy. He's more of a cardio kind of guy. I didn't notice it until just now. There is a mark on your forehead. Yeah, you would be able to see more. It's healed up all right. It's been three days now, but there was blood coming down my face from that. I didn't even notice the head part of it because my finger was in such extreme pain. Actually, the nail coloration is not nearly as bad as i thought it was going to be it's like purple on there some and then the front there's a big bruise on the pad of my my finger you can see that yeah it got
Starting point is 00:24:58 smashed and so i kept it wrapped up for a couple days i can't't bend it that well, so I haven't been working out. But yeah, lesson learned. The danger wasn't from the chainsaw. It was from not using the chainsaw enough. Let me toss this out. In case you rent the chainsaw again to cut these things in half, I actually have a lot of chainsaw experience. If the chain hits the dirt, it gets instantly dull. And you might be thinking, instantly?
Starting point is 00:25:30 It's like magic. You absolutely have to have to get the tree a few inches off the ground. Because if that thing hits the dirt and runs for even an entire second, then that chain won't cut the same. And the difference is dramatic and your personal workload will go up 10 times even. Working with a dull blade sucks. Chain.
Starting point is 00:25:52 I probably went too much on the side of being careful with that. Oh, you knew it. Okay. I didn't know that, but I just knew like, I just knew that it was awkward to hunker down and try and get it that close to the ground. And I just didn't feel like I had a safe balance with it.
Starting point is 00:26:07 But yeah, well, that's good to know. I did accidentally hit my driveway with it at one point as I was going through a big log trying to get it in a piece I could cut. I didn't realize it was that close to the bottom. And then it goes on my driveway and made a divot. But it was maybe an eighth of a second, but enough that it like, I know what you mean when it says it can run, because it made like an eight inch, like real quick.
Starting point is 00:26:33 Yeah. No time at all. You probably knew this intuitively because you're smart, but there'll be some tations where you're tempted to use the nose of it, right? Maybe you take it out a little branch or just poke it or whatever. If you put the nose of it, right? Maybe you take it out of a little branch or just poke it or whatever. If you put the nose on it, it can jump and run and behave erratically and dangerously.
Starting point is 00:26:52 So you use the cutting side all the time, never the tip. It didn't even cross my mind to use the tip side because I thought of it like a cool sword. Okay. Slicing through. Yeah. I'm going to have a cool sword. Okay. Slicing through. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:05 But yeah, it's, it's, I'm going to have to fucking rent it again. It's when they move on you in unexpected ways that you get hurt. And that's, uh, you know,
Starting point is 00:27:13 so just use it in the predictable, normal ways where you chop it like a sword and do your thing. Careful. Your trees are down now, but careful about waving it around over your head, you know, because you can probably do that really well until you lose your footing. your trees are down now but careful about waving it around over your head you know because yeah you can probably do that really well until you lose your footing and then all your athleticism
Starting point is 00:27:30 is gone because you're stepped on a moving rock or something and yeah and now there's a chainsaw hitting you or someone around you but like yeah i really did i was i walked around with it like like it was a gun because my girlfriend was out there like weeding and helping and my dad was out there doing stuff and so like every time time I finish cutting something, I don't like turn it off almost like turn it down like that. I don't fully trust this machine. So yeah, the so funny that you brought up you're like, Do you go into any safety lessons? Did you Google how to use it? Now I'm like, No, home depot guy just shipped me off you kind of got a lumberjack vibe about you had to give it your chainsaw i went back in later in the day to did you give him
Starting point is 00:28:14 safety lessons while he had a beard boss ah you're good i was i went in to return it before i'd showered because i had more stuff to do and i got back. And I had no idea how much sawdust this puts on you. Where my body's just caked. It scared one of my dogs. I didn't even look like myself, apparently. Just shit everywhere. And yeah, I would do it again, though. It was fun.
Starting point is 00:28:42 Do you have hearing protection? Yeah, it came with it again, though. It was fun. Do you have hearing protection? Yeah, it came with a helmet with this with a little visor that was made of mesh which, I mean, I didn't even know to get a visor. I showed up at the place to get it
Starting point is 00:28:57 with just those airsoft glasses, basically, and then they put that big thing in the bucket with a gas can. And I was like, Oh, well, I guess,
Starting point is 00:29:07 I guess my idea was bitch made. And I was, I was going to do it without any hearing protection. That didn't cross my mind. I usually wear your eyes and ears. So not too different than what you might wear shooting. You know? Okay.
Starting point is 00:29:19 That's not too bad. Yeah. Probably the most collateral damage was the fact that this was a Saturday. I started at 9am. And so my neighbors could not have enjoyed that. But I had to get it done, man. Do you know your neighbors? Yeah, yeah, I know all of them except for one. And even them I met, but they were like, not curt, just like, number one, a couple 30 years
Starting point is 00:29:43 older than me. And so not much there and it was just kind of a high goodbye probably see you never but my other neighbors are very nice yeah they're they're all like in their uh ones in like their late 30s the others in their uh probably early 50s late late 40s i don't know i know that uh when i met one of them, like I was talking in the backyard over the fence, just like in Home Improvement. And I was like, oh yeah, just my first house. I'm really excited about it.
Starting point is 00:30:12 It's gonna be a lot of work, but it's gonna be fun. And she's like, oh, man, you seem pretty young. How old are you? I'm like, oh, 27 at the time. She's like, oh, I've got a 27 year old son. And I was like, I guess I was like, man, I didn't, I wanted, I didn't know what to say to be like, well, I mean, I'm pretty full on friends right now.
Starting point is 00:30:32 I was going the other way. Like maybe you could leave and give him the place. Like I'd much rather he live there. Is he a weirdo or is he like a cool guy around the neighborhood? I can come hang out with me. So yeah, I mean, I'm enjoying the homeowner life. or is he like a cool guy around the neighborhood i can come hang out with me so yeah i mean i'm enjoying the homeowner life it's uh there's always a new expense which i don't like where
Starting point is 00:30:51 it's like i you'll you'll pay for a plumber to come out and look at something and pay the 60 70 whatever home insurance copay or whatever and then it turns out that plumber's a fucking retard this happened in the last couple months and so i had to have him come out again it's an incompetent guy who takes three minutes fixes it so but i'm just you know scratching the surface i've only owned it for like nine months and so i'm sure i know my roof's in good shape or at least that's what the inspector said but i don't trust those people anymore after immediately there was a plumbing issue and he missed the fact that my fucking dishwasher didn't work like immediately my like walked in to use the dishwasher and didn't work even though that was like the hard work couldn't be give me a
Starting point is 00:31:34 lot like it did it not get things as clean as you expected or did it like not have any lights turn on like literally non non-functional. Okay. It would take one second of someone going, hey, can you, not even an inspector, can you go turn on that dishwasher? Ah, no, it is broken. Okay. It does not turn on. My inspector sucks.
Starting point is 00:31:58 The dishwasher left spots on the glasses. Well, your expectations are high. No, but yeah, yeah yeah so the finger thing sucked getting hit in the head kind of cool though because all my friends when I had company over later that night I looked tough they said I looked like I'd been in a fight but I think getting a bloodied head and carrying on is kind of a hockey thing like that I think so that's hockey player tough if you had lost a tooth you'd be pretty badass no that would have sucked and been like yeah my dad
Starting point is 00:32:39 like he never well he was a hockey dad he took us there all the time and so he's like okay okay all right well let's finish up out here and then we got to build that shelves you know we can make a paste out of blood and saw dust we'll get you patched up super glue here i i never understood how that is a safe way to to close wounds you know that's why it was invented really yeah that type of glue was meant to seal wounds that was its original use damn I always thought it was like a last-ditch effort of like all right well you're gonna get chemicals in your bloodstream and in your body from this scary glue but don't want you to bleed out like that kind of thing I always thought it was so here's the woody take on glues glues fall into two families there is the glass family and the rubber family and that's what they do when they drive
Starting point is 00:33:33 so like epoxies and superglue when they harden up if you hit them with a hammer they would like shatter yeah but then you've got like wood glues and some other rubber glues where they're a little flexible. I always thought it was weird that the human body wouldn't do better with like a rubber family glue. Yeah. I don't know. I don't even know. I know what wood glue is, but I only know that because it's a slightly different color. I don't know why.
Starting point is 00:33:59 Wood glue and paper, like the Elmer's white glue, are same, except that the white glue dries more slowly. Oh. Yeah. Sometimes woodworkers will use the white glue because they need more, what they call open time, like the assembly time. So like imagine a headboard with like 30 different like vertical slats, you know, for the handcuffs, of course. So when I built stuff like that i would use white glue because it takes a long time to put them in like the 60 holes
Starting point is 00:34:31 and you need to buy yourself time yeah i didn't even think about that woodworking have you done any woodworking recently in like the last couple years no the closest colin and i teach colin math and we were doing geometry and like area and things like that. So we went out to the shop and cut a couple forty fives and made a 90. We made triangles and hexagons and shit like that. You know, it seems like that's funny. I can picture you being like, and Colin, this is the hexagon and you take these pieces and do that. And he's like, yeah, I get it.
Starting point is 00:35:02 I totally understand it. Let's move on you're like well i don't know if you do let's go out to the shop we're gonna make sure you really understand no decadrons by the end of this in the shop i feel like um that lesson it was jackie's idea and i thought it was cool you know It's nice to get out a little bit. When she teaches fractions, she sometimes cooks. We're going to do a quarter cup of this and two eighths of that. That's a good idea.
Starting point is 00:35:32 Yeah. Well, especially with Colin, who doesn't learn verbally as well. You, I'm sure, learn verbally really, really well. But Colin's the opposite. He's more visual and tactile. Visual and manipulatable, they call it. You use tactile. That works. and like tactile visual and manipulatable they call it like things you can feel you know you use tactile that works um so uh you know so you take him in the shop and show him angles and such
Starting point is 00:35:51 and you know make some angles with him but there was a lot there you know he's using my table saw and there were all kinds of like safety lessons intermingled with what a 90 degree angle is so i don't know that he really got geometry out of that lesson, but whatever. He just got more fun. Yeah, yeah. He got some carpentry. It's worth it.
Starting point is 00:36:14 Poor kid's got a rookie teacher every year. That's going to suck if I have, well, when I have kids and they take a lesson harder than I can figure out. And that's gonna be especially embarrassing when it's like long division. And I'm like, I remember I knew how to do this.
Starting point is 00:36:34 What happens with me, and it might happen with you too, is they like change some of the details. And like, I've got long division, right? It's an algorithm, you know, a set of steps that I can follow and do and it's no trouble. And then they teach your kid and all of a sudden they're like, what? So you break 938 into 900, a 30, and an 8, divide them all up separately and then add them back together. Why are you doing it that way? So now I'm supposed to help my kid with my homework and you have a new technique. And it's not that I don't understand the new
Starting point is 00:37:03 technique. It's just like yeah i like my way it's common core math is what they call it and so many parents and friends of mine who have kids who are that day at that age where they're doing that like i've never met someone even teachers i know who have to do that they have to do it they're not allowed to teach it the other way or they're like yeah it's it it confuses the out of kids because they'll be like all right we're doing division and multiplication and subtraction and division all to get the same division number you know what's 10 uh divided by two well don't do it in your head and certainly don't do it the easy way it's gonna be tough it's gonna be be tough. It's going to be hard. It doesn't make sense why they fucking did that.
Starting point is 00:37:50 Nobody likes it. It confuses the shit out of kids and it makes problems take way longer, my understanding is. Right. And then also I just feel like I don't know it. I'm supposed to break this into six different T's and squares and boxes and like yeah so that was always tricky with hope though it's like so I could help it with her homework for years and years
Starting point is 00:38:13 and years then she becomes a freshman and a sophomore and she's learning like trig and it's like yeah you know hope I really feel like you doing trig without me will prepare you for college when I'm not there. Yeah. It's not that I suck at trig. No, there must be some other reason. No, it's that this is gay. Trigonometry, the gayest of maths.
Starting point is 00:38:43 Yeah. like math is weird because i hated having to learn it like like learn the formulas that part sucked because it was just like oh this is so boring but once you got it down and you could like knock them out like formulaically it was like oh this is kind of it's just like a little puzzle this is kind of nice you know like it oh it makes sense this is rational whereas like english and stuff even though i was always way better at that like writing and public speaking and things it would be like i'd write something that i was for sure was trash and i'd get a great grade because i like knew the teacher's favorite movie or something and then i'd do other things where i wrote what i thought was really good and they'd be like you totally missed the point of your book report on lord of the rings first of all i would not miss any points all the points are present they're all there i remember
Starting point is 00:39:36 one time are you presenting yourself like you're the subject subject matter expert in this room yeah what's gimli's grandfather's name i bet you don't know i bet you have friends yeah one time when i was a maybe like a junior or something in high school uh there was this teacher this english teacher that really disliked me because i was i would always be not disruptive in class class but i had little commentaries like make people like make people laugh as I made friends and so I like she did not care for me and I wrote a paper that I thought was really good and turned it in did terribly and I even like like I was like my parents were asking about it and I was like yeah I thought I did really good you know every other English class I tend to do well and she's just
Starting point is 00:40:27 she I really I genuinely think she doesn't like me and my mom was like I don't know we'll see how about your next paper assigned you let me write it and we'll see what you get and I did it under the you know under the auspice of oh yeah well if you write it and he gets a bad grade, then we'll know she doesn't like me. But in my head, it was like, don't have to do that paper. Yes. Yes. And so I brought the next assignment home to her.
Starting point is 00:40:53 I was like, hey, it's not bad. It's like a five-page essay on blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And my mom's like, oh, this will be kind of fun. It's like being in school again. And so she starts doing it and gives it to me the next week. And I go to turn it in. Didn't read it didn't did not care and no this is my senior year this is when like no nothing mattered okay I already had enough credits I was fine I was going to graduate a-okay and I go I turn it in I get it back d I got a d like a 64 And like, it was the first time I got a D
Starting point is 00:41:26 where like, I just talked to my friends in my class from like, hey, that paper my mom wrote got me a D. And everybody, like they all thought it was funny. So I brought it home and I'm like, mom, I got the paper back. She's like, oh, let me see, let me see, let me see. And I give it to her and it's a low D. And she's like, she just does not like you.
Starting point is 00:41:49 That is a very good paper. I made the bibliography i made the work cited i did all this and that and this and i i cited it correctly mla format and she just does not like you and i'm like i'm telling you yeah i know that's great though oh yeah yeah there was um i'm thinking of other stupid shit we used to do. My youngest brother got in trouble once for, like, I was always a pretty good student because I'm such a high anxiety person. I'd be like, I have to get this done or I'm going to be stressed out. And he is the opposite. He could chill with, you know, a hurricane coming towards him and with a hundred papers while the hurricane's coming. And so he was in fourth grade at the time, which is not an age you should be struggling to finish assignments.
Starting point is 00:42:30 And he had gotten in trouble so many times where he'd come home with his folder, and then my parents would be like, you got to go do your homework. You got to go do your homework. Do it, put it back in the folder, and then you can play with Legos. And he'd go, okay. He'd go down to his room, throw the folder on his bed and play with Legos all
Starting point is 00:42:49 night. My parents would come down and say, did you do it? And he'd say, yep. And go in the next day, not have it. He did this over and over and over and over until the point that he'd be like bringing worksheets home in the folder. And my parents, my mom and dad would be like now we need to see it we need to see it when you're done and he'd go do a couple remove the sheets he didn't want to do from the folder and like throw them away and they'd be like yeah i'm done like in the next morning they'd be like your son did not do the homework again. Like, how is this possible? It was so bad that he was skipping so many things that eventually my parents were like, you cannot do anything other than your homework.
Starting point is 00:43:34 You're going to come home. We're taking your folder away from you immediately, laying that all out in your room. You're going to do it all. And then you can either go to bed or read the Bible. That was all he was allowed to do either go to bed or read the bible that was all he was allowed to do go to bed or read the bible and he went in there and i caught him so many times like i'd walk in and he'd be playing legos with like his bible tactically open nearby homework not done like taylor please don't tell him he please don't tell him please don't care you do you buddy middle or youngest
Starting point is 00:44:06 youngest yeah I'm that's funny yeah so yeah uh he was the worst that was the worst I'm relating to a lot of these stories except I guess your brother didn't get hit with a shoe or no hanger or hangar or snow scrapers. Basic spankings for him. Yeah. They needed the ingenuity of your parents. Yeah. They had this like, they'd give like a calendar with the work on it. And then when you did the work,
Starting point is 00:44:38 your parents would sign it every day. And that was a way that the teacher and the parent would kind of communicate. So I started forging her signature and I got better throughout the year still got busted all the time And then sometimes I'd be falsely accused like one time I was having my mother sign it But she was in bed so she just signed it on a remote control and her handwriting was awful similar to mine So going forward and like they yeah, she's, she's like, this is obviously forged, it's not, they talk, my mom explains.
Starting point is 00:45:08 Well, it got easier to forge after we knew how inconsistent my mom's signature could be, because she sometimes signed it on a remote. Ugh, I was just full of deceit and laziness, and creative laziness and badness. Well, he got better, and so did my he's it get better he's doing better now yeah yeah it was just funny to me like how do you almost fail fourth grade that's bad you've just learned the colors basically like the colors and who the first president is and basic math and
Starting point is 00:45:45 where the bathroom is in your school. And you fail that he did so bad at this one school. They sent him to a different school for like a year or two. And it was like fucking weird, like weird, weird ass kids. He's probably in like sixth grade. And when I would pick him up from school,
Starting point is 00:46:01 he'd always be like, don't even get out of the car. Just, I want to get away from here as soon as possible. These people are so strange. And like, it was like a little circus. Like it was like a whole, it did not make sense how weird each and every kid.
Starting point is 00:46:13 Disabilities of some sort. No, no, just weird. These are kids who struggled. No, that's what I'm saying. This wasn't even, this was a private school full of a bunch of kids with no social skills and it was a regular school are you sure that they didn't want themselves it's like a second chance school i was 18 when i was picking them up i know it was it was just a religious
Starting point is 00:46:37 school full and it was the reason it was so weird was because it was like known as a very small school that kids that had been homeschooled their whole life would just go straight into and so none of these kids transferred from other schools where they'd been like developing alongside their peers for 12 years they just were all kids where it's like yep you're an only child you've been homeschooled in you go and like that was so it was like a whole bunch of kind of strange odd bird kids very nice i'm sure but he did so bad at that school that no he hated it he just wouldn't do the work he was like mom none of my friends are here my friend willie is still at my old school i hate it here i hate it everybody's weird nobody wants to joke around like like that that kind of stuff and so he got he was doing so bad that my mom eventually was like,
Starting point is 00:47:25 all right, well, we're pulling you out of sixth grade. We're pulling you out of sixth grade, and I'm going to homeschool you at home for the rest of sixth grade. And I was like, this is bullshit. You're not going to homeschool him. He's going to do whatever he wants all day and then get to go to a new school with his old friends next year. She's like, no, no, I'm excited.
Starting point is 00:47:45 I'm excited to teach him and do everything. It started off strong where she was all amped up and psyched. And then within two weeks, it was like my brother would roll into the kitchen at noon for a snack and then take a worksheet that my mom got from some online printout thing, go down, half-ass it. And it got to the point where my mom was like, all right, the only thing you have to do for the rest of the year is read. And it's like fucking March at this point.
Starting point is 00:48:13 This is not even close to over. It's the beginning of March. And she's like, all you have to do is read The Adventures of Huck Finn and write a book report on it and then turn it in and that's all you have to do. That's such great. Motherfucker didn't do that. He let it go. He put it off. He literally
Starting point is 00:48:36 got a summary off our family computer because that's all we had at the time. He looked it up, got a summary went like basic bitch regurgitating all that like at the time he's telling me like she doesn't add a check plagiarizing sites like that no and so he bullshits through that in no time at all never read the book and then because like he was afraid of getting found out for the longest time
Starting point is 00:49:02 i could just like be sitting on the couch and be like, or no, the book was like Tom Sawyer or something. And I'll be sitting on the couch and I'd be like, Hey, give me a soda from upstairs. And then give me Cheez-Its. He'd be like,
Starting point is 00:49:14 no. I'm like, I'm going to tell mom about Tom Sawyer. She's like, you can't use this forever. I'm going to use it until it stops working. Yeah. He, oh, so fucking lazy fucking lazy wouldn't do he had three months yeah yeah he went to college he's doing really well now like uh so good for him he got all that out of his system late bloomer i get that yeah i was so jealous
Starting point is 00:49:38 though at the time where i was like he's gonna have a seven month summer and he's like that's that's awesome for him but yeah for him but for me i was just seething about it like i wish i could play with legos and lie to my parents about reading tom sawyer all day i don't think colin gets the whole 180 days you know like it seems like oh is that is that just required? Yeah. Now that you say it, I'm not positive that's a North Carolina thing, but I am that it was a New Jersey thing. It's 180 days. And if they had snow days or something,
Starting point is 00:50:13 they just tack them on in June. They had to do them. Anyway, Pal doesn't start until Hope goes to school. And then he finishes when she gets out of school. But she's in college. Don't they have a shorter year? And then he seems to get her entire vacation schedule. and you sort of mix that in with the public schools like anytime anyone gets off so do we and you know it and then today jackie had uh she went to the doctor for a while and i'm like where's his math book i'm trying to do this and she's like i'm not
Starting point is 00:50:39 that worried about it i'm not there today and it's i'm an asshole so i was like well don't twist my arm i guess it's vacation for all of us i had my own little like revealed truth i was talking to my dad recently like having lunch or something and it was like like right now is when like all the jewish holidays are cropping up it seems like they like there seems to be jewish holidays there's a ton of them but they're like they cluster them a lot around here too and I was like yeah like Yom Kippur one of those things that's coming up and he was like I hate those Jewish holidays and I was like why he's like they get to take off for Christmas and Easter and all of our holidays but we don't get to take off for Yom Kippur or Hanukkah or this
Starting point is 00:51:24 and that and I was like son of a a that's that's that is how come we don't get to take off their holidays too i'm in favor of all religions being welcome and any day you want to make make it as long as everybody gets the day off work or school they could they could have stalin day and i'd be loud and proud wearing my hammer and sickle hat, you know, as long as I didn't have to go to work. That's how I felt about smokers breaks for a while. As far as I know, I invented the secondhand smokers break, and it hasn't been duplicated since.
Starting point is 00:51:56 I used to work in customer support. And the way we worked is you work an eight-hour day, and for four hours, you kind of worked calls that you didn't solve immediately, and for four hours, you of worked calls that you didn't solve immediately and for four hours you accepted new calls well these fuckers would take smokers breaks so like i'm taking their calls because they're not at their desk and i'm like this is just an unfair workload yeah it's like 10 minutes an hour for some of them where it's like yeah that's 40 minutes of your four hours here. And like the whole time you, like every time the phone rang, it was like, oh my God, I hope it's not a hard one. It was ERP software, which is very complicated.
Starting point is 00:52:33 And the difference, some calls would be easy. You could solve them on the spot. Some calls would be tremendous. You'd write programs to solve their problems. You're just dreading that thing. There's a little triangle next to your name and you're like, that lights thing. There's a little triangle next to your name and you're like, that lights up.
Starting point is 00:52:46 Oh, please don't light up. I get to get out of the queue in 13 minutes. Can I go 13 minutes without a call? I hope I can. And meanwhile, these guys are on smoker's breaks. So yeah, I would just join them. Yeah, you should just join. I did.
Starting point is 00:53:02 That's a good, people should do this and just bring a pack of gum And just pop in a piece of gum chew until they're done and then throw it away Oh, this is my gum break I feel like it was so obviously fair that non-smokers could take secondhand smoke breaks like yeah How could you call that unfair? You're right? Yeah, and you get to live longer unfair you're right yeah and you get to live longer joke now right everyone is like I hope I die like really yeah it's cuz it's funny like being like just well suicide is well no no it can be you know definitely funny lots of things in bad taste
Starting point is 00:53:46 can be from like hungarian parliament or whatever but i don't even know what the fuck it was from a couple years ago who the meme of the guy taking the shot the old man where he was like standing like he got accused of some war crime and he was like i didn't do this i'm not standing for this trial this is and he stood up and took a shot of literal poison in the middle of the room just went killed himself right there and he's just standing there like what are you gonna do i'm dead like and so i i that guy ruled yeah i don't know of a pleasant fatal poison like i have to believe that's not uh favorable what yuck i would hope it would just be something like morphine where it's like it immediately just you feel sleepy
Starting point is 00:54:36 and then you're gone forever like just dead i would imagine that's how it is. I don't know. Yeah. Actually, I didn't consider the drug option. I only considered the, I don't know, cyanide or something. That probably sucks. Yeah. Have they ever interviewed somebody while they're dying from a cyanide pill? I wish they would. What does it feel like? What if we just micro-dosed until they couldn't be interviewed anymore, and then we'd know?
Starting point is 00:55:11 I'm a Silicon Valley executive. That's why I micro-dosed until they couldn't be interviewed anymore and then we know I'm a Silicon Valley executive that's why I microdose cyanide anthrax on the weekends you know tolerance break yeah so you think that impeaching Trump is a mistake for the Democrats yeah yeah I think that if it's gonna do i think it's gonna rile up people like republicans who otherwise were kind of meh on him where you know like people who were like yeah he hasn't really followed through on a lot of promises seems like he's kind of just a neocon and then but those people might get like hey oh we really are on the defensive this is okay yeah i'm gonna go i'll go vote i don't want him to get impeached i may not like him i don't want him to get impeached like i can see that segment of voters uh coming out harder like
Starting point is 00:55:55 that's the risk with impeachment is that like you're gonna rile up the other side and if it fails you're gonna dishearten your own side yeah i think it's going to fail anything could happen oh it'll fail it'll fail because they don't have the senate and i don't see any kind of like groundswell or even indication that the senate might turn around and and they've stuck by him through some silliness right you know that's why i don't get why they're going to push it like it seems like they're setting themselves up to lose i'm a little less pragmatic i think it's the right thing to do and i think that you do it because it's the right thing even if it's not good for you which might sound dumb but and i recognize it's not pragmatic but gosh darn it like if he's doing impeachable shit
Starting point is 00:56:40 all the time well what's he doing because i mean anything is impeachable like if he blew his nose it's the high crimes but in particular the misdemeanors i'm you see the misdemeanors like they're claiming it's like mean tweets it's like yeah well you know what you're a fucking fruit and i don't like you and it's like this latest one where he he threatened to withhold the aid he was going to give the uk saying ukraine not the ukraine he was going to withhold the aid that he was giving to ukraine unless they investigated his political rival there's some serious banana republic shit huh so yeah well we'll see nothing's going to happen the democrats are going to come out in a worse position than they are they like i don't know why that is i also want to say the ukraine yeah where did that come from i don't know like
Starting point is 00:57:29 we never say like oh trump is negotiating with the mexico or the canada right but the ukraine's going to be there the canada we didn't invite the france i don't care for that and apparently i didn't realize this but there's some like noise around calling it the Ukraine because that makes it a land and that makes it sort of a sub thing of Russia it's politicized in ways that most Americans are not like tuned in keyed into so when you call it the Ukraine what a dumb thing to care about but when you call it the Ukraine you're referring to it as like a land like the the Rockies or the Great Plains and not a sovereign nation. And Russia might – The Ukrainians don't care for it. Is that what it is?
Starting point is 00:58:12 Because I think Russia would like to have all of Ukraine and referring to it as just like a geographical spot like the Rockies or the Great Plains makes it not a sovereign nation. Or so I've read. So I try to call it Ukraine also you reveal that you're dumb if you call it the Ukraine like I just did ten minutes ago give a shit what's going on over there I just do not care unless they're making high quality hockey players they can fuck right off the seasons rolling around why does it seem like these bit countries are so important like it is ukraine a like a geopolitical player on this planet a bunch of oil or something that's where hunter worked is that just russia i do you know what hunter did? Are you familiar with what Trump once investigated? Oh, that's Biden's son.
Starting point is 00:59:09 No, I haven't kept up with it. I've been... I can lay it out in less than a minute. Yeah. So he's a lobbyist and an attorney, and he worked for this company called Burisma or something close to that, and they do natural gas and petroleum.
Starting point is 00:59:24 Well, Biden and Obama wanted Ukraine to be more independent for energy of Russia, who is selling them their natural gas and petroleum. So they gave them fracking technology to make this private company more effective and to make Ukraine less dependent on Russia, who is an enemy of the United States, on Ukraine money, et cetera.
Starting point is 00:59:47 So they're trying to split them apart a little bit. And that's pretty sketch. They're claiming that Hunter never really talked to Joe about this kind of thing. And they're completely independent. And the fact that we gave them technology that helps their company. Don't look into it. Taylor, just look just look away would you it's not sketch and it but it is sketch right like why was hunter on the board of directors for a natural gas and petroleum company in the first place he's not a geologist he's not a not business he's a lobbyist who's the son of the vice president of America and it and they got what they needed so
Starting point is 01:00:27 anyway Ukraine has a prosecutor that looked into him. He was corrupt as heck He lost his job the next prosecutor came in he looked into him said there was no funny business here But if you view it through the side eye Who picked the next prosecutor that reanimated the case and said everything is cool like did was that under America's influence I've been oh I'm sure it was right so anyway I view what hunter did is a little as a lot suspect I don't know why I said a little very suspect I don't know how he got that job how he got paid so much America helped him out when his father's
Starting point is 01:01:01 vice-president bullshit yeah i mean it's like i really don't i really don't care like i just don't care about what's going on with that like like the the bidens are all of these fucking families do evil shit it's like they they like little things like that like that aren't gonna nobody's to get punished unless it's some low level guy. He doesn't have political connections or some guy in Ukraine who they're like, it was fucking Sergey the whole time. He's like,
Starting point is 01:01:33 they're not going to get in trouble already. They're talking about stupid bullshit again, instead of like the biggest story of the year, Epstein, that's just gone. Just, just gone. Did you see another, story uh came out another little
Starting point is 01:01:47 factoid about epstein that he was from his jail cell arranging payoffs for women huh not the behavior of a suicidal man is it no it's not it's it's so deep entrenched and nobody in the media wants to talk about it but we've talked about epstein enough god that guy that's one of the so there there's like a a spectrum of conspiracy theories right there's the unlikely to be true ones way out there i'll say flat earth right we can all agree that one's wacky town and then there's the well it's hardly even a conspiracy theory well because the whole term conspiracy theory is meant to malign people into just believing what mainstream media says it's meant to say you really believe that rich people in the one percent conspire to fix pricing i think conspiracy theory
Starting point is 01:02:37 predates that kind of intent right that's just an old term before probably television right but maybe it's taking on a connotation and intentionally so by the media by going just labeling anything conspiracy theory it allows people who want to be perceived as more intelligent just an easy off thing like i had so many people telling me the day of when i was saying like epstein did not kill himself all this is going on and they're like oh people are so dumb they'll they don't even believe what every mainstream media source is saying right now without evidence they they these are the same people who told us iraq was fine and the people who told us before a lot of attacks are done in firearm things that are like there's no motive definitely not uh notre
Starting point is 01:03:18 dame's on fire but we know it was like just happened randomly it's an 1100 year old church and this sort of thing happens i guess once every 1100 years like the whereas headed with that is i feel like the epstein thing is more on the more than likely true side of the conspiracy theory spectrum you know it and uh i i find it to be an interesting dividing line on how how quickly you are to buy into the non-prescribed line of thinking. If you don't buy the Epstein thing, if you thought it was likely
Starting point is 01:03:54 that the cameras just went down and they took them off suicide watch and they had people who weren't supposed to be watching them watching them and they just happened to be napping and this and that and they took him out of a room with another guy and they put him into this room where he'd be all alone
Starting point is 01:04:08 and you know whatever his attorney described him as delusionally optimistic about his chances right and the fact that he's making plans from the cell like hey when i'm out of here you're not allowed to talk i'm gonna give you a quarter mil like that's one of the fact that his partner is like a Mossad agent like in like the CIA Mossad kind of deep entrenched shit like come on and people will still go yeah but Fox and CNN they said like don't even look into this they said it's illegal to read the WikiLeaks
Starting point is 01:04:36 so I'm just going to believe what fucking Hannity and uh fucking Don Lemon say Jesus Christ yeah that's that yeah that one is one that Don Lemon say. It's like, Jesus Christ. Yeah, that's that one is one that I wish we could get some more truth in so we could dig into it a little
Starting point is 01:04:52 deeper. Yeah, nobody will. Nobody will. Well, we'll put it right there with the Panama Papers. Yep. With the Panama Papers and all the wars we get into and all the other things. When Venezuela is a huge threat all of a sudden or you know we gotta uh oh christ i've said all this 100 times it's not interesting
Starting point is 01:05:10 yes oh i'm sure all these countries are run by madman and we have your best interest in mind all the rats yeah pk 266
