Starting point is 00:00:00 PKN 560, how you guys doing? Pretty good, pretty good. Doing great. My chat is insisting that I watch Old Boy. What is this movie? It's a- I've actually seen this. Nice.
Starting point is 00:00:14 It's a tremendous movie. I bet if you looked up the IMBD, it's got crazy high ratings, probably eight or nine. It's a Korean film, and it involves a man who is imprisoned for years, though he knows not by whom, and he is kept a prisoner for all these years and he just starts training to fight while he's a solo prisoner alone being held by he knows not who. And he's punching the walls, like his wall is his punching bag.
Starting point is 00:00:42 Sure, sure. Until his fist becomes hard as stone, because it's years. It's not like two years or three years. He's like trapped in a motel eight or like some like hotel room, right? His appearances show that he's in a room. He's trapped in a room and he's there for years training against the wall to fight whoever has taken him. And one day he's just freed and he begins his rampage of revenge and destruction to find out who took 10 years of his life away. It might be 10, might be five. And, uh, and he's just beating the fuck out of anybody who gets in his way.
Starting point is 00:01:17 There's this classic shot where he's got a hammer in each hand and there must be a dozen men after maybe more, but they've got to come at him straight. They're like in a hallway type situation. They't they don't they can't handle it is it very good and maybe no cuts yeah you've probably seen that scene before but it's a that's a center piece in a whole movie of fight scenes and holy shit did that happens and oh no that's what was going on. And you gotta watch the uh Korean version. Yeah I watched the Korean version and like after I'd seen the Korean version I'm like nah the English version can't be as bad as they say like and then I watched part of it and it's like yeah this sucks like this is way worse. Also said to watch the Korean version so is the Korean
Starting point is 00:02:02 version you have to read the whole thing? Subtitles. Yeah, I don't remember but probably. Yeah, I just read the subtitles. I don't really mind. I can do dubs and subs. I like dubs and subs. I like to. Yes.
Starting point is 00:02:13 Or I can, I mix and match. It depends on the language sometimes. Like some languages, I don't know how to put this, but they like sync. When they say things, it syncs up. There aren't a ton of extra syllables or a ton fewer syllables. It's very, it's at least similar to English
Starting point is 00:02:29 in that the words are similar in syllables. And so the sentences match, you know. It takes the same amount of time to say something. Yeah. Whereas like in Kung Fu movies, famously, like, I will come after your father. Yeah. Dude, there's a, we looked at this graph at some point, or maybe I did by myself, the economy of words like, I will come after your father. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:46 We looked at this graph at some point, or maybe I did by myself, the economy of words to express ideas. That's why English translates so poorly to Korean, or dubs translate so poorly for us as English speakers from Korean and Japanese, is because their economy of words, it just takes longer to express an idea in Japanese or Korean than in English.
Starting point is 00:03:06 I get distracted by the lips not matching up, even if I don't understand the words. One exception is if it's Eastern European for some reason or Russian, because they keep their mouth so semi-closed when they're talking, like their accents that you can kind of get away with it there, but I prefer just subtitles. I think that's how I watched it. It could move. You do. She loved it.
Starting point is 00:03:29 And you're like, yeah, OK. It's like, I'm with you there. No, I recommend it, too. It's good. I don't think you'll like it. Like, it's got a ton of action. What do you like to action? Yeah. Jackie and I both liked a movie we saw recently. It was also all in subtitles
Starting point is 00:03:46 Man, you're gonna know the name of it The guy's a cop and he has to like take over this apartment the raid. Yeah Right in the raid It's like the bad guys on the 17th story and it it's like the bad guys on the seventeenth story and it's almost like a video game in that like he comes in the first level. It's
Starting point is 00:04:09 totally easy. All the guards are sleeping. The next level security is a little better by the time you get to like level seven, they're pretty elite. They're all doing kung fu fighting against each other. They've got guns and and you
Starting point is 00:04:20 know, the the alarm's been sounded at this point so they know they're coming and it's just like a video game until you get to the boss and level 17. Yeah, Dread for me is the American version of that. I always recommend that to people if they don't like the raid or if they can't handle the subtitles of the raid because it's not in what language is it? Is it Hong Kong or Singapore? It's something like that. They speak Asian, I think. Yeah, they speak Asian.
Starting point is 00:04:41 They speak all that. All that Chin-Chang nonsense over there. All that Chin-Chang nonsense over there. Asian I think yeah I'm a fucking patriot we let other countries have languages gotta be fucking English we must must have been sleeping, Democrats in charge. The fucking Dems, dude. They're letting the Chinese people keep talking. Yeah. Yeah, that's a solid recommendation. Not only is it like, it's a good one to have watched
Starting point is 00:05:16 because it's kind of, it gets referenced every now and then pop culture and it's got a real fun story. This is old where we're talking about? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I'd watch that a fairy I'm curious about it now. It'll be a fun talk afterwards If nothing else we can we chat about a little bit because it is a a bonkers movie. It's very violent How old is it? I would guess 30 years, but it's old. Okay, but all of it like Modern yeah, it's hard to, like, if a movie's from the 90s, like, it's still a movie that makes sense.
Starting point is 00:05:47 If you go back to, like, the 60s or something, they just seem to have lower standards. The sensibilities have changed as well. Like, there's that scene, I can't remember who it is. There's a famous American movie from the 70s where the hero drags his girlfriend out of the car and slaps her around for a while because she won't shut the
Starting point is 00:06:05 fuck up and it's like come on now i mean john wayne used to spank grown women because they were like sassy and it's like like he'd assault her in front of the town and it's like clenice would rape the woman clenice would correctively it was a corrective one to be fair that was an evil woman and he was coming into that town to like lay waste to them all and that woman was a corrective one. To be fair, that was an evil woman, and he was coming into that town to like lay waste to them all. And that woman was a key and central figure to his brother or the host of his soul prior, depending on how you view those films being whipped to death. So she deserved it. Mm hmm. That's right.
Starting point is 00:06:39 OK. It's sensibility still nowadays. Rape is not a punishments for her. yeah. Yeah, you punishment for a great. Yeah, but history is cyclical. It'll be back. It'll be 400 years from now. They'll be like, man, why'd they leave? Clint had the right idea. We're, you know, steps again when the EMP goes off,
Starting point is 00:06:59 but I have no more video games. Qualities can like if you think about in a William Shatner fight scene from Star Trek, like the double fisted hitting they would do and the silliness of it. I know Granity's fighting aliens, but it's still it's ridiculous. Whereas nowadays actors are expected to train a little more tie and jits so that they know how to do this right. Yeah, that the fight scenes are a lot better in movies now. They're a lot more choreographed. The UFC is to thank for that in my opinion, because the average man at person, human got to see
Starting point is 00:07:35 what fighting was actually like. And once you've seen what fighting is actually like, and you go back to the movies and they start double fisting each other. Yeah, they start, you're like, this is not the movie I signed up for. Or they start like, you know, doing silly shit. I never minded haymakers, just to just,
Starting point is 00:07:53 if they're just throwing big punches and like, and, and, and it was like, come on, get up, get up. Like that's, people used to fight like that. You would hit a guy when he was down. You wouldn't even think to, I mean, you might think too, but only the villain would really do it right I never minded that but just the silliness of the fight and of course like smaller opponents beating bigger opponents without overwhelmingly higher skill levels and
Starting point is 00:08:15 that what a blue belt is supposed to be someone who could beat someone 20 pounds heavier than they are I heard some like Jits Jits I watched so many Jits podcast I heard some guy explaining the other day, how many belts are fraught? How many people have fraudulent belts? They'll come into his gym and they'll get fraud checked right away. They'll come in with a purple belt. But he was he was praising a fighter that came in with a purple belt from a respectable school. And he was like, I want to go back to white. I want to go back to
Starting point is 00:08:41 white here. And, and he's like, well, what was the guy actually is probably a blue, probably a. And and he's like, well, what was the guy actually? He's probably a blue. Probably a blue, but he's wearing a purple that this other gym had given him. That was a respectable gym. And they were just kind of talking about how there are levels to that shit. And it makes sense to like there's the purple who really should be a blue. Yeah. And then there's the blue who should really be a purple who just wants to be the best blue ever dominates competition after competition with the second
Starting point is 00:09:08 lowest belt. And you know, I've been training for 17 years now. I'm the best blue belt in America. It's like, you fuck like, would you go pro already? Go pro as a blue belt. Yeah. Master is not so master's dead. Outrank blue? Yeah, it goes white, blue, white, blue, black, purple, brown, don't don't even like having a brown belt.
Starting point is 00:09:32 There's a litany of colors. Oh, Brown to me says next to black. That's when you kick so much ass. You're going to need that to wipe the shit away. Ah, that seems pretty like that seems pretty unfair. That's what I tell my. Yeah, I'm going to. It's because of my humility that I'm going to be a white belt here. It's certainly not that these two black guys and this broken nose is coincidental. Actually, I was in a car accident on the way here. It's like, no, you're smurfing.
Starting point is 00:09:58 And then I'm seeing in karate and maybe taekwondo and some other disciplines they start adding all sorts of stripes and degrees of blackness to a belt and uh and little uh little tape uh like stripes that they add to the belts and stuff. I remember that as a kid they gave me like a yellow belt in karate just for showing up for like four days and it wasn't just because I was the largest child. And it wasn't just because I was the largest child. So karate, you won every fight. Oftentimes in karate, they give belts and you have to like pay to upgrade your belt and it becomes what they call a McDojo,
Starting point is 00:10:33 which just a business. And you got these little black belt 11 year olds who literally couldn't beat up the other 11 year olds, but they're black belts. That doesn't happen in the Jits world. But there is Jits silliness too. It has stripes on the belts. It has youth black belts. That doesn't happen in the Jits world, but there is Jits silliness too. It has stripes on the belts. It has youth level belts. And then at the black belt stuff, it almost becomes political. Like, Ooh, they start getting red on their belts,
Starting point is 00:10:56 but only if their last name has Gracie or if they've like, it's a fame thing. I took karate when I was a kid. And all I remember about it, mostly is like how strong the coach's cologne was. I remember every time he'd get close to like put your hands in like the right place or like spread your feet where they're supposed to go and like get your stance right. It was just overwhelming and I had never smelled that much cologne before I don't think. And so that's just that's all I remember from karate. I remember- He was trying to get some mom pussy. I mean, I bet he was getting some. That crossed my mind.
Starting point is 00:11:28 No, his assistant, his assistant was actually like my third cousin, the grown woman. And she was a hottie. Like I think maybe something was going on there. Like, cause she was like, I don't know. She was a hottie. She was an attractive lady.
Starting point is 00:11:41 Probably still is. How old were you when you started karate? Cause I- Oh, seven, I would would guess seven, eight, something like that. Maybe did it for a year. I know I had a lot of I don't remember why I was taken to the American Legion, me and my sister. What probably happened is it got brought up or there was a sign and I was just like, oh, I want to do that. Because anytime something came up, I wanted to do it. Like I, like my, my sister went to horse camp. I was like, fuck sign me up. I don't care. Me and 12 little girls. Let's go. I don't care.
Starting point is 00:12:13 Sometimes people do karate cause they're getting bullied in school. Sometimes they do it cause their dad thinks they need discipline and wouldn't that they want their 11 year old to call everyone, sir. I think I must've watched a movie that had karate in it. And I asked my dad if I could do it. And I was probably six when I did it. And similar to you, Kyle, almost parallel stories. I bet I did it for a year before I was kind of like, this is pretty,
Starting point is 00:12:37 pretty gay or whatever. Like I would have thought at age seven. I remember walking in the first time to karate at like age six. And like I had no concept like to me, everyone that was in that room before me at the dojo that was next to the cake place that my mom would get me a little some treats from afterward. That was the best part of karate. I thought all those kids in there were like, fucking heavy hitters, some real ones, like people, I like these are trained. And so I like, like at the age of six,
Starting point is 00:13:05 walked in with like the fake lat walk, like trying to be trying six years old, trying to be like, I can't let them smell weakness on me. Immediately, like I see the coach being like the what would be Dojo Master, the sensei. Yeah, the sensei being like all right caitlyn this is your second time so you get to punch the fucking wood and i like saw her break this balsa wood and like i had no concept of what balsa wood was and so i was like oh my god and then at the end of the end of the first session he let me punch it and when my fist went through
Starting point is 00:13:41 it with so little effort and i got to also kick through it is when like the wheels Started turning of like this is pretend like this is this is totally make-believe. Nothing. I'm learning here is gonna be now they have reusable boards to break like they're They're basically magnets. I think and you can punch it and it puts it back together Yeah, that's also would sucks. It's like he you would break the balsa wood and then he would toss the pieces to the side and they would almost fall slower. He just was like dropping a, I'm going to be hardcore. I'm going to be so cool.
Starting point is 00:14:28 No, I didn't stick it out. And now I'm glad I didn't because it seems like karate guys get lost. I just remember punching the wall with the stupid gloves like as soon as they gave them to me, it hurt in my hand. I remember that too. Like we went to buy the gloves. You know, you like get the gloves. You know, you're like, oh, I'm going to get the gloves. I'm going to get the gloves. I'm going to get the gloves. I just remember punching the wall with the stupid gloves like as soon as they gave them to me it hurt in my hand. I remember that too like we went to buy the gloves. You know you
Starting point is 00:14:49 like go for the first meeting and then you sign up and you order your fucking equipment and all that shit showed up and I was like fuck yeah I'm P-Man now and I punched the wall and it just hurt so much. It was terrible. There was no give to that brick wall. I remember a related, it wasn't anything fighting related, but my friends had toy helmets, like picture a plastic World War II helmet. And we'd try to convince ourselves that they had protective value by either headbutting on the wall or letting our friend tap us on the head with a baseball bat. And it's like, this isn't working at all. This is like having no helmet at all.
Starting point is 00:15:27 All rattled. I remember getting like sock and boppers me and all my brothers and a bunch of our friends, you know, when you were like little, and it worked out that like everyone at school was like, ask your parents for sock and boppers, we can bring our own sock and boppers to school. And then obviously, they weren't gonna allow that. And so it would be like in the yard after school with like all the neighborhood kids and everybody and everybody had their sock and boppers. And I was like, I was always at that age,
Starting point is 00:15:53 I was much stronger and also a bit bigger than the other kids. And like, I was always, I was always just big. And so like, I remember seven pounds. It was before I was born eight big. And so I remember- I was born a mere seven pounds. It was only a week before I- I was born eight pounds, 15 ounces. Really? Which is a very normal weight. That's exactly my weight, by the way. I know. That's why we're both such titans.
Starting point is 00:16:14 And I remember, like, you know that scene in Lord of the Rings where the cave troll busts in to the Moria and he just starts fucking shit up? That's what I was like with my Sock'em Boppers to the- That's what I was like with my Sockum Boppers to the, to my, that's what I was like. I barreled out of there. I did it. I cartwheeled out because I had, she has a cave troll.
Starting point is 00:16:35 That's how I felt. And I was even like, like, I was like, man, I'm just hammering these kids. But then like, you know, the other kids catch up when puberty hits them a little bit later. But some of them, a lot of them, most of those kids didn't catch up to you till there was 27 or so. Yeah, maybe. But that was, those were good times. Sock and Boppers were, I don't know the per capita fun that me and my friends got out of Sock and
Starting point is 00:16:57 Boppers might make them the best, like cheap tool I had in my head that these were like, like, like expensive items. I didn't I had no concept of money. I just saw that on the you remember the commercial it's like the song the Sock and Boppers song all the kids are having a blast in the art maybe maybe we you just missed no I remember the toy and the commercials I was huge into Saturday morning cartoons it was a ritual for me to get up early and watch and I I remember you could feel when the magic was leaving the airwaves because slowly he man Power Rangers, Beatle Borgs, Pokemon would give way to afternoon news and hockey and stuff like that on a Saturday morning.
Starting point is 00:17:41 And I just I guess the day has begun. Around noon I guess. But I'd watch cartoons from seven till noon every Saturday morning. I loved that. My father would not have allowed that much cartoon watching on Saturday. He would have found a reason to be mad at me. My cartoon watching was unlimited. I mean, you know, if I wasn't watching cartoons, I was outside like in our fields doing something, you know, outdoorsy and boysy enough that I don't think the cartoons were he was like boys growing up soft.
Starting point is 00:18:11 I don't think you had any thoughts like that. Because you know, when I wasn't the cartoons, I was in the woods with a gun or some shit. But, but yeah, loved my Saturday morning cartoons never had sock and bobbins bobbins because that is a toy that's not that's meant to do to, that's meant to do violence and to hit people with. I would have been hitting people with it that didn't want to be hit. I would have been breaking things with it. I was a destructive kid. So they have to have Socom-boppers too because you can't just go at them if they don't have
Starting point is 00:18:38 their own Socom-boppers. Who was they? Are these like hypothetical friends that you're going to assign to me? Man, that sucks. You had nobody around. That just blows so hard. Who's this they? You know, pay some kids.
Starting point is 00:18:51 You don't remember their tagline? More more fun than a pillow fight. They were right. Never had a pillow fight in my life. You've never had a pillow fight in your life. What I pillow fight with your friends for sleepovers. I don't have any friends, Taylor. You had friends in school.
Starting point is 00:19:05 OK then. OK then. We were just we were just peace loving. That's what it was. That's why we never had pillow fights during the many sleepovers. Yeah, you didn't. Dude, sleepovers were the best. They were so fun.
Starting point is 00:19:20 Just play fucking N64, eat bagel bites. Your friend's mom brings bagel bites down. You get to like rent a movie. They like let you run wild in a Hollywood video for 20 minutes until they get impatient and say, pick something up. And then you might've been a more popular kid than I was. That's not what my sleepover. Mine were more sinister. It was like, all right, the parents are going down.
Starting point is 00:19:40 Let's leave. Let's fucking. We would, we would sneak out at like 11 p.m. when the parents went down and hop on trains and take them into town. They can be 711 like that. Shit. You sound like older sleepovers. Yeah. Not me. I was seven year olds. No. Well, oh, wow. You were doing nine. Wow.
Starting point is 00:19:58 You were a bad kid doing that. I. You deserve those letters from time to time. I wasn't easy to raise. Yeah. Your childhood sounded more like dangerous. Did any of your childhood friends like not make it like get yanked up and taken kidnapped, molested, beaten, everybody get like hit by a car. Like y'all were doing wild shit out in public. Anyone got hurt like that. I can't think of anyone who got that hurt. I mean, it was a different time. It was breaking arms, stuff like that. But that's the thing I feel like kids need to do more of.
Starting point is 00:20:32 Take like the rotting wood you find around and construct an unsafe tree house. Like where's that activity? We tried that. You like would realize like how difficult building a fort was with no tools or nails. And it's just like leaning a bunch of wood. We had tools and nails and stuff.
Starting point is 00:20:51 I don't know. We didn't have any of that. If I ever showed effort towards something like that, like if my dad saw me in a tree failing, the next day he'd be there with like the shit to do it right. Like there'd be ladders and ropes and lumber the next day. Like if you ever saw me trying and actually putting effort into something, he'd be there the next day to make it right, to like do it the right way. So we had a cool tree, tree house, just me up there though.
Starting point is 00:21:20 From up there, I could look far and wide for friends. There's nothing, Captain. was as lonely as that Titanic iceberg spotter. Just nothing. We had a tree house that my dad made my younger brother and I. My youngest brother was so little. He never even I don't even think he was around yet. And it was just a small tree house and happenstance, I, this is probably four years ago now, I had to drive by that old house we lived in to get to a friend's place or it was, it was close enough.
Starting point is 00:21:56 I like thought about it on the way. I was like, I'm going to pop through this neighborhood, see the old backyard, the old house. And it was like dilapidated, fell apart, like the wood was rotted, it had collapsed. And it was like, man, there's something sad about that. Because that's the same treehouse where me and my friend Alex after work, because after work after school. Yeah, we were in our mid 20s after work. After school, we hang out in the treehouse. And my younger brother would want to like come up and play and
Starting point is 00:22:25 my dad foolishly made a ladder that could be pulled up. What the fuck did he think was going to happen? He should have attached the ladder and there was a bucket on it on a string and so we would be like, uh, he'd be like, come on, let me up, Taylor, Alex, let me up. And we'd be like, Next, let me up. And we'd be like, admittance is three Coca-Cola's and a bag of chips. It's like, we even asked for three, so he could have one of them. And then he'd like go back, he'd go back in,
Starting point is 00:22:52 he'd load up the basket. We'd be like, the basket load it. Like it puts the lotion on the skin. We'd pull the basket up and it'd have like the Pringles in there and the sodas. And like, we never like made it last a long time, but we would spook him to think that he'd been had where he'd be like, okay, you've got your sodas and the Pringles come up so I can have sodas and
Starting point is 00:23:12 Pringles with you. And we'd be like, perhaps later. It would only be like maybe three minutes before we like, all right, yeah, there's the ladder. Come on up. So we can sit up here and do nothing. That was always fun. Just. Just a little healthy bully. And you guys have like houses you could go. There was a house. I don't know why it was the way it was, but the owner died and it just kind of deteriorated to the point where the roof caved in. And once we saw the roof fell in, that was our ingress. Like we were able to scale the outside of the home and enter through the hole in the roof. And that's where I
Starting point is 00:23:51 spoke, I spoke my first cigarette, my only cigarette really, I was like 10 years old. And the dead owner was a was a smoker. And there's like cigarettes and lighters and we're like, well, when in Rome, I so funny, my soul, this sucks. cigarettes and lighters and we're like, well, when in Rome, Oh, this sucks. Like smoking the filter. When my dad bought that farm, there was already a single wide trailer on it that the previous owner had been renting out.
Starting point is 00:24:20 And he, he sort of pitched that as like, this is free income here. This is part of the package. And you know, you take in extra $300 a month here, that pays for all the water and that, you know, it was this whole thing. And immediately the tenants were just awful human beings. And as soon as we got rid of them, dad was like, never again will I rent to anyone.
Starting point is 00:24:40 And I remember him giving me a talk about renting to people and why it doesn't work. And he's like, the kind of people that need to rent are the kind of people you don't want to rent from you, Kyle. And it was this whole thing. And anyway, then we had this abandoned single wide trailer on the property that we sort of haul, it has wheels, you know, like they all do.
Starting point is 00:25:01 And then so we had wheeled it off to like the edge of the property. So that became my like clubhouse. And so we had a clubhouse. We had a whole single wide trailer that black people had lived in. So just gin bottles everywhere and an odd smell. And so we'd go in there and hang out and have a good time. And eventually, I don't know, I started destroying it. And at first my dad was like, ah, what'd you do that for? You broke the windows?
Starting point is 00:25:28 I was like, I don't know. We just got crazy. Stop it. And then like, eventually I- Me and my imaginary friend. Kly. Was it just like you and Jeremy breaking windows in there? I didn't meet Jeremy until I was like 27 or something.
Starting point is 00:25:47 Scott, yeah, Scott would be there for like, he, his parents are divorced. So he would only be with his dad during summers. So I'd only get to see him during summers when we were kids. And so he'd be with me on that farm almost every day working for my dad to earn some money. And so yeah, me and Scott tore that trailer. I can't explain to you how the level to which we destroyed
Starting point is 00:26:09 the single wide trailer. We took a chain tied to a four wheeler and like threw it through the window and then wrapped it around the post that's in the center of the window back out and then just yanked the whole window out dragging a chunk of the wall with it. We got on top with hatchets and peeled the roof back for some reason because we wanted our
Starting point is 00:26:30 destruction to be complete. Like it was hard work. Sounds like it was. It's like when you come in from like the woods as a kid and your mom's like, how's your day? And you're like, don't get me fucking started. It was, it was a tough one. The dam wasn't taking. Eventually, it, when one of dad's chicken houses burned down, they dug this enormous pit with like huge machinery and we pushed that trailer and the remains of that poultry house into that pit and buried it all. So it's, it's out there somewhere. But yeah, that was my little clubhouse growing up was that single white trailer. And we just absolutely decimated it. I can't believe we didn't burn it down. We used to get full of wasps because it didn't have any windows. And so I made a bee suit.
Starting point is 00:27:16 We'd go in there and fight the bees or the wasps rather. That was a big part of my summer fun was fighting wasps. How effective was your anti-wasp suit? 100%. Oh, really? Yeah. Oh, I was not as successful with my childhood mistakes. I had a paintball mask on and then a big heavy ski mask pulled over that.
Starting point is 00:27:36 And then gloves, and I duct taped the pants to the cups of the boots. And anywhere there was a gap, duct tape, but it was like 100. It was legitimately 140 degrees that day. And I was in there fighting bees putting up a lot of really exerting myself and I had a heat stroke. And I was laying on the ground like hyperventilating and Scott was having to cut me out of the suit because I taped up so well he couldn't get me out. And because
Starting point is 00:28:03 of those gloves, you don't have your nails and you can't get it to tape. So I'm just like, help, help, help. And he's having to like cut me out. And I'm legitimate. I had never been that overheated and hot in my life. It was because I was in there going at it. You know, Kong, I was once I realized I was invincible and like impervious to bee stings. I was just like Iron Man man. I was grabbing nests as big as my fist and just crushing them in my hand. And they're attacking. I mean, there's 50 of them in the air just actively coming at me and I'm just like, no. And I've got weapons. I had something in each hand. That was what we did. And during our summers, we fished and fought wasps. Fought wasps and fished. Yeah, that was- You know, if you live-
Starting point is 00:28:47 We made pipe bombs. We made pipe bombs. Pipe bombs, that's just a fun thing for fun kids. Country kids and city kids are different. Yeah, yeah. We didn't really have access to anything, but the outdoors and our imagination. And one friend, which was my cousin.
Starting point is 00:29:04 I'm so glad I got a good mix, where like when I was home in St. Louis, I could hang out with all the neighborhood kids and like school friends. And then every other weekend, it seemed like and all constantly over the summer is hanging out in the country, like starting fires outside, kind of hanging out with the cows, riding ATVs. Good time. And a lot of building forts in the woods and a lot of building weapons in the woods. Especially when I was like, I'd say like 6 to 10. It was prime weapon building age.
Starting point is 00:29:33 Where it'd be like, what am I going to do all day? Like all my grandma would be like, now, Taylor, you're coming down. You're going to be here for five straight days. So, is there anything you want me to get you? So, you know, other than snacks and food that you can have fun with and I would just be like electrical tape duct tape twine a Knife like all the things in my like seven eight-year-old head were required in order to like make axes makes quite
Starting point is 00:30:01 Ties Yeah, a lot of that stuff and was, that's all that I wanted for like years over the summer was just like, stuff to make weapons. Eventually I aged out of the tape when I got a little older and it's like, no, the tape looks fucking gauche. I need to like have, I need to get a, like a big knife so I can split the stick and then insert the rock and then like find probably something I shouldn't have been sharpening rocks on probably like an important piece of farming equipment and then just you know grinding a rock away to make it sharper
Starting point is 00:30:33 so I could make an axe and then see if I could chop a tree down with the axe which didn't didn't ever work my stone axes were pretty primitive. See we had access to like a full shop. I don't know. I mean that means like an air compressor, arc welder, a TIG welder, a MIG welder, like I don't know, all my dad's toys, all my, all of his stuff and like, you know, a lifetime's collection of lawn implements and farm implements. So if we wanted to make weapons, we just, well, usually it's got a gun.
Starting point is 00:31:02 I don't know how old I was when I was allowed to just leave the house with a gun, but probably 11 or 12. You know, if I just wanted to grab a gun out of the safe and go into the, go into the woods or go into the fields and just go for a walk, I would just walk around shooting anything I saw. We were allowed to do that too, but it was like a, it was like a police evidence locker where like I had to tell my grandma and grandpa like, hey, I'm gonna take the 20 gauge out in the woods and probably just like shoot trees and stuff. And they'd be like, all right, have fun.
Starting point is 00:31:31 And that was bad. Yeah, I didn't have guns. I did start fires. I remember, I became a Boy Scout. Love the good fire. Big time. And my favorite part of camping was the fires. My favorite part of Boy Scouts was the fires.
Starting point is 00:31:44 I liked the fires so much and it dawned on me not long after I got good at making fires. Like, you know, you can do this every day. There are woods not far from the house. You can just go in the woods and start your own fires. So I did a lot and the fires would be big, you know, bigger than me. And yeah, it was just solid fire.
Starting point is 00:32:03 I'm starting to understand why you enjoy your burn pit so much. It's just fun. Like you didn't have fun with it. Yeah, I would go and like make fires. Sure. But then again, like that's why I like when I see those people on YouTube that don't understand, they take the gas can, they pour a little gas and then they light it. And then they try to like tip the gas can onto actual fire, and then the tip of the gas can catches on fire, and they don't know what to do. I'm just like, I learned this at eight.
Starting point is 00:32:33 How do y'all not know how to handle this? I don't understand how people panic, or when people have like oil burning in their kitchen and they panic, why are you in a hurry to stop this fire? What do you think's about to happen? Like calm down, calm down, stop moving so fast. Stop screaming, stop jerkily moving. You're gonna actually scald somebody,
Starting point is 00:32:49 burn the house down, disfigure somebody. Like I don't get it. I don't have that panic in me for fire because we were blowing shit up. Early on in my childhood, we were clearing the land on that hundred acres. So there was a lot of pushing big, huge brush piles up and burning them.
Starting point is 00:33:07 There was a fire every day of gigantic size that required getting a burn pit to ignite. Like you had to go and get permission to start the fire as we were starting. And dad liked to start them in style. So we'd soak it all in gasoline and throw something burning at it or have a trail of something burning to it.
Starting point is 00:33:24 And if you let the gas fumes build up on a hot day and you've got a nice brush pile where the fumes can accumulate, it basically explodes. It's a fun time. You know what I have done dozens of times? Use ether or starting fluid or something to remount a tire on the rim. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:41 You probably, everyone's seen that on the internet, but that's cool. The smart way to do it is to put the fluid around it and then I make a trail on the side of the tire and I light the tire and it just walks right in ignites the inside and puts it on. Yeah. Yeah. I've seen people somehow blow the tire up doing that before. Um, must not be ether though, or maybe it must be a shitty third world tire. I don't know. Maybe they just use too much. It doesn't take very much.
Starting point is 00:34:06 It doesn't take very much. No, but it's cool though. I've done that too. I remember what we were trying to get that. I remember getting the tire off was a nightmare. I don't know. There was always a projects like that growing up, but yes, my kids are off-roading.
Starting point is 00:34:18 So the tire is already off. We're trying to put it back on and get back going. Have you seen those like tire, like recycling videos before of like the third world? And like, I've seen some of them where they're like, they shaved down all the nonsense rubber and then they do like some sort of wrap of additional rubber to build up the tire.
Starting point is 00:34:38 I saw one recently where it was like the, the like slop account that was posting. It was like, look at the ingenuity of the Indian Seattle Rio's tires and then like they didn't do any of the rewrapping they just shaved off a bunch of rubber and then cut new lines into it and I was like I can't this isn't right like this isn't what you're supposed to do. Yeah. The little, little, little shortcuts like that is why those guys are getting fucked up by trains so much. Yeah. Those are retread. We would do that on tractors on tractors. And I would imagine, cause I would be afraid to do that on a road vehicle. That's going to be going 60,
Starting point is 00:35:18 80 miles an hour. Cause it seems like it's be more prone to fail, but we would do that on tractors where the big like nerly tires would get worn down after time. The tractor dealership would recap, retread those tires, but they don't do it the way you described. They peel off all the old and they have a thing that's made to like retread the tire and everything. Did you ever see like what was the most serious injury you saw on the farm growing up? Or if anyone got fucked up in your childhood? Dad would occasionally cut himself.
Starting point is 00:35:50 And I never saw dad go to a doctor or a hospital ever until he ruptured the disc in his back. He would always super glue his cuts back together. He didn't cut himself all that often, but when he did, and like, it would be in the middle of work, you know? know, it'd be like alright, does we do shut down everything today? Cuz he's not only is he the one doing most of the work He's supervising me my cousin and probably a third person to like keep the job going and nobody can keep the job going if he's Gone, because we don't know what the fuck we're doing
Starting point is 00:36:20 He just super glue himself the fuck up and it was usually like cuts that would require six or eight stitches normally. Like it'd be like, Oh no. I cut myself one time pretty bad. Like across this finger, there's still a scar that you can't see. I'm sorry. Maybe a little bit. Yeah. You say it's there, right?
Starting point is 00:36:37 It's like, there, this is a real wings redemption moment. I promise you. And no, I see it. You pass the test. This is where the sword hit me but it was just like I was I remember we were doing this thing where we were putting new curtains on a chicken house and it required cutting a piece of string the right length a thousand times like you need a thousand lengths of six foot rope and so my knife is as sharp as fucking something out of I don't know lore
Starting point is 00:37:05 I've been sharpening this time a kid so I want razor sharp I've got a case pocket knife and I slashed my finger in it just I remember it laying open and seeing white meat and Sitting like stuff in there like whatever I saw was white I don't know if it was the bone, but they stitched me up terribly my mom had a fit that was probably the worst cut I don't know. We had a guy had a seizure once fall off a ladder, like a six foot ladder down to the ground. And we didn't know he had seizures either. And he was an older guy, 60 maybe. So there's a 60 year old black man laying on the chicken house floor, seizing. Is that the guy you mentioned that
Starting point is 00:37:42 had seizures because he drank so much? That's the only seizure I ever saw him have. And I don't know what caused it. He was an alcoholic who would hide alcohol and drink on the job. I'll never forget dad being like, we came over and like, there's JD. He's supposed to be picking up dead chickens, but he's asleep in the truck. His feeder like kicked out the door and he's asleep over there. And dad's like JD, I'm the asleep in the truck. His feeder like kicked out the door and he's asleep over there. And dad's like, JD, the rest of my ass.
Starting point is 00:38:09 Hey, did you drink in? I had a drink. Well, I had no drink. And dad like, well, when he said that, I swear to God, just like a cartoon character, the bottle slit, he had it tucked into his waistband of sweat pants and it slid down his leg and shattered on the concrete floor he was standing on. As he protested that he hadn't been drinking, it was like, what's that? Oh, I didn't know.
Starting point is 00:38:37 That's just my glass pint bottle that lots of workers have. That's what this affect your wounds. I keep water in a vodka bottle. So like, I don't know. That was probably the worst injury. I can't think of any that were too much worse. We were usually pretty careful. Dad almost got sucked into machinery like multiple times. He got his whole hand pulled into an auger system one time and I pulled him out.
Starting point is 00:39:02 Oh, hopefully he had a good Christmas that year. Now, now. I remember it happened at Woodworth and St. John certified public accountants. You never got pulled into the auger at the accounting company? I can't remember any workplace injuries at all. I could one guy. Yeah, you all probably kept the guard on the auger. Oh yeah, you got a guard on the accounting.
Starting point is 00:39:24 Yeah. Yeah, I don't remember my grandpa really hurting himself too bad, at least not while I was there. Like lots of little cuts, but like that's just something that happens when you're taking care of a lot of livestock and farming. Yeah. Yeah. Nothing traumatic. I, the dog tried to jump through a fan once and got his arm cut off. But yeah, I can't think of any, none that really come into mind. We were all- There were a lot of spooky stories my grandma would tell us about like local kids who had cracked their head open
Starting point is 00:39:57 on the pavement by like taking their ATVs out on the road. And she always like would like always be hammering on us like, nah, don't she go out on the road with those ATVs? You stay in the pasture over there. And then like I would always be like, yeah, wolf, no shit. Like I'm going to go to the grassy hilly fun pasture and drive around the cows. And then if I like bother them too much, my grandpa tell me to go to one of the empty pastures and I can drive around there. Like why in my head I was always like, what sort of boring kid takes an ATV on the road? The place like the least fun place to drive of anywhere. Like oh, it doesn't be flat.
Starting point is 00:40:37 No, I want to go like in the mud. I can see an ATV solving a transportation problem for someone who can't drive yet. They put it right away. We were in the middle of fucking nowhere. Like I didn't know any kids around my grandparents' house. The only time there were other kids to play with at my grandparents' house is when I would convince them to like let me bring friends from school down there
Starting point is 00:40:56 for a weekend and did that handful of times from like the age of seven to probably 16. How close was their closest neighbor? the age of seven to probably 16. Like either- How close was their closest neighbor? Probably, they had one person who was probably a quarter mile, no, probably between a quarter and a half mile away.
Starting point is 00:41:18 Okay. And then- Far. Yeah, it was really far. And now they built the house like, like the most like classic, like older people thing where like they lived their whole life in southern Missouri on this land. And they're like, I'm we're building a house and this is probably 16 years ago.
Starting point is 00:41:34 And they built a house within I shot of their old house. And so like you can like now their closest neighbors are like probably, you know, 1500 yards, 1000 yards away or whatever. And it's just their old house. Did they sell that or to rent it? They sold it to these new people that that's I've never actually even seen them or talked to them. It's sad though, like I took a TV's up probably 10 years ago, just to like see the old farm area. At that point, it wasn't ours anymore. I probably shouldn't have been doing this. And they're like looking at all the
Starting point is 00:42:02 dilapidated barns and stuff on all the different sections of the farm and just being like, oh man, like I have, it's one of those things like you have so many memories, like just a flood as soon as you get somewhere of memories. And then you see it's like, oh, I remember this, you know, the wood wasn't rotted then. And that roof was definitely on. Like, and there were like, lots of cows here instead of no cows. Yeah. You see a tree down or something. Yeah. It's, uh, it's weird. You like, you can almost feel your brain like rewriting what that reality is. It there's like, Oh, yeah, I thought it was this. It was, I thought it was never going to be anything else. And now it's that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:43 Like I'll go home every now and then to my dad's town and oh shit, all this has changed. Like they'll build new restaurants in town and stuff, especially like big areas of trees will be cut over and bulldoze down. It's like, oh. It is sad. Dude, getting older is so weird.
Starting point is 00:43:01 Like it's just going to get weirder, isn't it? Like when you're 80 80 looking around at the world and be like, oh, everything's gonna be so shocking. That's what I saw. I saw Trump's getting a $400 million spy plane. Spy plane. Spy plane or is it, I guess it's confused.
Starting point is 00:43:23 The whole idea of that is so fucking stupid. I don't even know if I wanna talk about it. It's so upsetting. The whole thing is such a bad idea. Like from the beginning, it's not like France has given us a plane. Qataris are. Would you trust France?
Starting point is 00:43:37 I would, yes. I would trust France to give us a plane table. More than Qatar, but still, we need to be dotting our I's across the East. France doesn't support, like there's videos of Trump that aren't even that old from last time he was president talking about how the Qatari support terror. They do support terror. They support Hamas and Hezbollah.
Starting point is 00:43:55 But have you seen the bathrooms on this thing? I haven't. I want to see some. I haven't either. I bet they're, Kyle told me. Apparently the master bedroom suite in this airplane is to die for I think there's I forget if it's seven or nine bathrooms in it, but wow, that's a lot for a plane If I think I mean, I'm not really an expert on luxury planes, but it seems like a lot but also
Starting point is 00:44:17 It is a level of corruption that the Republicans need to open their stupid fucking eyes to right They went fucking over the top bonkers that the Republicans need to open their stupid fucking eyes to, right? They went fucking over the top bonkers regarding Hunter Biden's laptop, which I freely admit is pretty bullshit. But what Trump does, the million dollar dinners, the $400 million dollar plane from Qatar, the crypto coin scam, the NFT scam,
Starting point is 00:44:43 the Bible's, the shoes, the this, that, and the next thing. This guy is so on the take. Stop pretending it's America first. There's nothing America first about getting a personal airplane to change America's priorities towards Qatar. What's he saying? Is he like, I'm gonna keep-
Starting point is 00:45:01 He says, if someone gives you a free plane, you say thank you. So what would so even if they kept it just as Air Force One and he didn't keep it, we'd still have a Qatar plane. And they're not dumb. They're gonna they're gonna sneak some shit in there. They're gonna have they're gonna be like, oh, right here. This is the cocaine room. This is illegal pornography. We call it the Epstein suite.
Starting point is 00:45:29 There's definitely no cameras here to compromise you as a politician. Definitely. The economics of it are absurd. So like, all right. First of all, the current Air Force One is like a three billion dollar plane. It's supposed to be getting replaced. Trump actually negotiated the cost of the replacement and actually did lower the Boeing's number by a huge amount when he went back. I think it's still on track to be at 2027 is when
Starting point is 00:45:56 the new one is supposed to be done. But the price didn't stay as low as he said he got it. I think they wanted like seven or eight billion and he got it done for like three and a half. Like he cut the price in half at least like like he really did But but now like let's just say the Qataris give us this old fucking billion dollar plane planes I looked it up and there are planes of the similar nature that have like The king of somebody had one and they had to like retire that plane at a younger age than this. Like it's an out of date plane. It's going to need to be, it's going to, the cost of stripping it down,
Starting point is 00:46:31 making it into what Air Force One is, which is a hardened against EMPs capable of conducting World War Three, fucking continuously flying. It's got eight bathrooms at least by the way. There's six passenger bathrooms. The president's got one and the cabin the crew have one so they like like it is already a flying fucking Fortress palace that our president has and he's like no that other one's got more bedrooms The the cost of taking a soccer playing stripping it down making it secure what you can never do I don't believe I don't care who you are You can send that to the fucking future and let John Luke Picard go over that motherfucker. Jordy LaForge couldn't find the shit that you could hide
Starting point is 00:47:08 in something as big as a gigantic luxury airplane. And there's so many ways now of listening in and watching. It could be something that just, the metal might vibrate in a certain way, and this thing records those vibrations and then turns them into fucking ice crystals that are dropped out the ass of the plane. Like technology is limitless now.
Starting point is 00:47:28 Who knows how they could listen in on that plane. You would never accept such a thing from even an ally. Even you wouldn't want France building your plane. You wouldn't want the UK or Australia building your plane. So why would you want the Qataris who by your own words support terrorism and fund terrorism unless you're just. So why would you want the Qataris who by your own words, support terrorism and fund terrorism unless you're just a piece of shit. It's crazy. It's not going to save us any money. It's going to cost more money.
Starting point is 00:47:52 And the best part is he's keeping the motherfucker when he leaves the presidency. That's what everybody seems to like. That's the deal. That's not that. That is the situation. You got to be thinking that's the deal. That's not that that is the situation you got to just text to be they think that's that is the deal Those are the terms of the agreement. That is what he is saying Oh, pretty fucking crazy. Okay, they say it goes and I see people online. They're like, no, it's going to his library You think they're gonna park it in an actual library put books in it That's not going to his library means it means going to his post presidency slush farm That's what those presidential libraries are.
Starting point is 00:48:26 What are you fucking talking about? Wake up, read a book. Jesus Christ. Yeah, it should be like with a billion dollars. There has never been a president as crooked as Donald Trump. I took Hillary Clinton's $400 necklace away that those like, uh, those brown Asians gave her that time. So there was a, an Obama staffer was doing a podcast
Starting point is 00:48:45 and he told a story. Like he went to, I think it was Saudi Arabia, it wasn't Qatar. And they're in like the hotel or whatever starting to check in and the Saudi Arabians show up with two suitcases. And the suitcases are filled with like jewels and trinkets and prizes.
Starting point is 00:49:01 And they're like in our country, it is culture to like give you these gifts. And these guys get it and they're like, our country, it is culture to like give you these gifts. And these guys get it and they're like, what do we, what is this? What do we do with these presents? And then the state department shows up and they're like, we're here for the suitcases. I don't know what happens to the suitcases
Starting point is 00:49:17 after the state department removes them from the staffers. Maybe they give them back and it was all a bit of a show just to be part of the tradition. Or maybe the State Department keeps them in the government. But these guys on the podcast didn't get to keep the presence. And it made me wonder what happens when they send briefcases of presence to the Trump administration. Do we really think the State Department decorrupts this whole shit? I don't buy it. This is the most corrupt administration in my lifetime,
Starting point is 00:49:47 in America's existence perhaps. No one has ever set up a crypto coin as a direct means of sending Trump cash before. No one has ever said, for a million dollars, I'll have dinner with you as president of the United States. He started that shit right now. And no one certainly has taken a $400 million gift from an enemy, right?
Starting point is 00:50:04 Like what the fuck is this about trump's level of corruption is so out front that his cum lickers are like well you know since you're doing it wrong daylight it's not corrupt anymore and i'm like stop slurping down the lies that come from i don't see anybody backing him on this i see when they go isn't talking about it when i see lim when is it supposed to go through? Like when, cause if like he accepts a $400 million plane, that's pretty fucking bananas. I don't see. I'm like the Fox news may be carrying his water, but like, if you, if you look at what Republicans are saying, nobody's carrying water on this one.
Starting point is 00:50:39 I disagree. The head of the Senate, they asked him about it and he's like, well, I guess I need to learn more. I'm not really quite sure. Right. A head of the house, Johnson, same thing. They're like, what do you think of Trump getting this plane from it. And he's like, well, I guess I need to learn more. I'm not really quite sure. Right? Ahead of the house, Johnson, same thing. They're like, what do you think of Trump getting this plane from Qatar? And he's like, well, I don't really know. I haven't heard about it. Is it real? And it's like, dude, it's been four fucking days. Stop pretending you didn't hear about the airplane from Qatar. You lying sack of shit. You're as bad as Trump is at this point. It's like that all cops are bad. Well, no, not all cops are bad, but all cops at this point. It's like that all cops are bad. Well, no, not all cops are bad, but all cops
Starting point is 00:51:09 have the backs of bad cops, right? That is true. All Republicans, seeming almost all, seemingly have the backs of a bad president. I think you might be getting, Yeah, I think you might be in a different, All the Republicans, I see most people make up one of them. Hawthorne, I'll say, was like, I want a big, beautiful jet made in America. How could we ever make sure, he echoed what I just said, basically, like, or maybe I could what he just said. And then they they they interviewed a gray haired Republican man Hawthorne's while that narrows it down. And he said the exact same thing he I think he was like, how would we ever make that secure?
Starting point is 00:51:39 He's like, I don't think we can. I mean, yeah, Ted Cruz is against it. Rand Paul is against it. It's not a hundred percent. And I've certainly seen Bartree Taylor, green, Laura Loomer against it. I didn't know about MGT. Um, but uh, the real leaders of the Republicans, the leader of the house, the leader of the Senate gave the old, well, I don't know much about it. I don't think what is the timeline? Do you guys know like because I could Not if he accepts it, that's fucking crazy. That's ridiculous, but I could also see this being a It ends like he doesn't end up taking it. I don't think you'll end up taking it I think there'll be there's gonna be too much pressure and then it will it will have just been a big spaz out
Starting point is 00:52:20 Over something that doesn't happen, but it is the kind of thing that if he does, it would have happened without the spaz out. Trump has already said he wants it. He's like, if someone offers you a plane like this, you take it. And so the idea that it's some spaz out over fake news would be off target if that's what you meant. Instead, it's Trump's wings got clipped. He wasn't allowed to do this particular avenue of corruption. Yeah, that's that's fair too. Well, that's ridiculous. I could see him like what do you you can't use that as like a government plane for all the reasons Kyle just laid out.
Starting point is 00:52:54 That's bananas. Like you have to make your your fucking planes here so they're secure. It just doesn't make sense. It's not just the construction of the plane. What would it be? What would it be used for? Air Force One. It will be used as Air Force One.
Starting point is 00:53:06 Well, that's fucking insane. We can't let another country make our military. Air Force One has like flares that come out of it in case someone tries to shoot it down. Air Force One has air to air refueling in case they need to keep that thing in the air for like 30 hours, 100 hours and forever, right? In case he needs to run the country from the sky because it's not safe to land, they can refuel that thing in the air. I really doubt this old cutter plane has that. It has none of that. Some of that is proprietary, cutting edge, American military technology that it's hardened against EMPs. I don't know how you do that. I don't know how you have a giant electronic thing that flies be hardened against. Oh, it's easy, Kyle. You wrap the plane in lead.
Starting point is 00:53:49 I don't see a fly. Do you think that might be a little a little fibbery? And it's plus it's hardened against EMPs. No, I know for no, it's it's a thousand percent hardened against EMPs. It would be really worthless if it weren't. It's made to conduct World War III from. It has any number of proprietary American technologies that no one else has that are meant to, in the worst case scenarios, have the president stay safe. Well, I'll believe you, because I don't even understand how an EMP works.
Starting point is 00:54:20 It makes sparkies in the air. It makes a huge amount of electricity that for some reason is a fucking issue And it shuts down all the important bits and bobs. I know it stands for electric mag magnetic pulse or something close to that Nuclear weapon goes off anywhere near or a magneto it's named after the super you'll get it right Magneto. Magneto, I'm sorry I messed it up. Yes. Well, Professor Xavier needs a better point.
Starting point is 00:54:48 I always thought Magneto was one of the cooler ones when I watched X-Men when I was younger. I really liked, and I even had the thought of like, man, as the world becomes more and more plastic, like he does like markedly lose some power. And I would think like a plastic man, like a Plastido or whatever, maybe he would be the Magneto of the future.
Starting point is 00:55:10 Like he can just contort plastic. Cause think if you could contort plastic and everything, you're as powerful as Magneto. In the year 1931, you're not even close to being as strong as Magneto. No, wrong about this. Magneto can pull the iron from your blood. Only if fucking that wh horror injects it in
Starting point is 00:55:25 the bathroom and over does the amount of iron. You didn't understand that scene. She injected a bunch of iron into his blood to make it so it was a sufficient amount for him to pull it out and then make a disc out of and then he floats like a like a bad guy. Yeah that's because he needed the disc not but he can pull the iron out of your blood and kill you without adding any extra. The injection was so that he had a disc of metal. So he just chose to make everybody fight every fight that whole movie when he could have gone, everybody's anemic. Now you're too tired to fight. Magneto is great. But anyway, he shouldn't accept that I'm not gonna lie. Magneto's great. Um but anyway,
Starting point is 00:56:07 he shouldn't accept that plane. I hope to god he doesn't accept that plane. It's it's so ugly. He was in uh is it ugly? I didn't see a picture of it. No, no, no. I just mean, oh, okay. Metaphorically ugly. Yeah, it's metaphorically ugly. It's it's
Starting point is 00:56:19 a bad look. Um he's in Saudi Arabia today speaking. I I watched the first 10 minutes of that of him sucking the king's dick. Oh, just the best man ever, the great king. Oh, it's so nice to be in your kingdom. Just fawning over the Saudis. Why every president seems to be subservient
Starting point is 00:56:39 to Saudi Arabia. There's a trillionaires. Yeah, because they're like the richest people. And they control the whole world. I don't know how rich they are. You know, they're back on the Fortune 500 list and they're not really as rich as we said. The company is it's the individual and it's the country's like treasury and assets. They're building that line thing like out of their pocket. That is the most Arab thing I've ever seen. The most
Starting point is 00:57:00 Persian, gaudy, gold, purple carpeted, line city. That thing is going to be weird. So the Saudis are trying to transition their economy. They're not stupid. They see that oil is not going to last forever. And I don't know, 80% of their economy is oil. So they're trying to transition away from that and have all their other things not be subsidized by oil. And tourism is one of the big things that they're moving toward. They think the line project and there's some other projects are going to like sustain them in the future. I don't know anything about any of that. I just thought we don't take their fucking plane and it's embarrassing to even act like we need their plane or want their plane for a fucking million dollars. We lost that many drones last week. What are you talking
Starting point is 00:57:39 about? It's a it's nothing. Four hundred million dollars to the president of the United States. You've got a net worth of like 150 trillion. You idiot. What are you talking about? Have you seen the like mockups of what they say the line city is going to look like, like the, from the inside? Yeah, that's bullshit. No, it'll, that'll never happen.
Starting point is 00:57:56 That looks like Star Wars. If it looked exactly like that, it would be the most depressing place on earth to be like, it's just incredible, dude. It looks, it's just a, it's just a super, it's just a long mall with like a few trees, and like a pool, and a bunch of fucking like Auntie Anne's and Sarku Japan's. Who's making it?
Starting point is 00:58:20 The Saudis. Saudi Arabia, yeah. And even the inside, like it's just dystopian. I thought it looked amazing. Those are like artists rendering. We would not want to live there. I don't know. We'll see if they even complete the thing. But I hope we don't take this fucking plane. It's nonsense to take this fucking plane. We don't need their fucking plane.
Starting point is 00:58:35 I don't want their fucking plane. We should take it and blow it up. An act of dominance. I like that. And then demand a refund because it wasn't blow up proof. We should shoot it down and now they're on the ropes. Now. Now we've got them right where we've gone wrong. They're like, will Trump ever get a stain on him? Like how corrupt does the man have to be before his own team
Starting point is 00:58:59 says, man, this doesn't look good. Like I, in terms of corruption, this to me is the one that bothers me more than most of the others, partly because it comes from cutter and partly because it's $400 million. The fact that he thought those tattoos on the guy's fingers were real implies to me a level of sophistication he lacks. That's over the top stupid. But the emperor has no clothes.
Starting point is 00:59:23 Why don't more people see that? Because he's paying them. Just they're winning right now. Like, case by case, some of the stuff he does, I really like. And then other stuff like this is just fucking retarded. And like people, you can't underestimate the ability of people not to notice the Emperor having no clothes. We had a senile old man for four years who was head cover ran for like a guy who didn't make sense and nobody was saying the emperor had no clothes when he and Biden was around like
Starting point is 00:59:50 people are going to largely speaking for right now. Have you seen him talk? Yeah, it's not great. Sounds old. It's not and I'm not saying he's like killing it but for all the guys who act like he was Jimmy Carter in the wheelchair, I feel like the stuff we've seen now he has the benefit of the edit. Like I don't know what we're looking at. That's possible. Yeah. You give me the Carter in the wheelchair. I feel like it's edited. I feel like the stuff we've seen now, he has the benefit of the edit. Like I don't know what we're looking at. That's possible. Yeah. You give me the benefit of the edit, I'll be Stephen Hawking. I'll be whoever you want, you know?
Starting point is 01:00:11 Like we watched him. Stephen Hawking, you set the bar pretty high. That is pretty high because he was the genius in his wheelchair. Not with editing. Not with editing. Put a script in front of me. Put the camera over there. I'm teasing.
Starting point is 01:00:21 He's not really the best order I could think of. I like to think that Stephen Hawking was just a just some retard and some other smart guy was like this is the funniest prank of all time. Meanwhile, he's like, I have shit myself again. He starts to stink. Yeah, I don't know about all that, man. Don't like it. Yeah, our whole club clapper at us. Not a fan you just got to take the wins where you can and try to not be too mad at all the fucking else. I know we're at an hour, but what I finally went back and watched Ted last. So man, it's good. I'll tell you what I love Ted. I love the character Ted. I love the actor Ted. I'm so inspired by the actor that said, where are you today? This guy I've done I've done that. I almost wrote him a letter. I
Starting point is 01:01:07 Googled how to write fan letters to Jason Sudeikis. If there's any chance that he would read that I was inspired by how wonderful his performance was and how genuinely like pure and incredible that character and everything that it stands for is I wish I could tell him and I if he care I just wish that he knew that it was it was beautiful what he did. I love that show I like it a lot. Did you know I think they're making another season. They're making a fourth, but it doesn't need it Please please write a fan letter to Jason Sudeikis. Why not? That'd be so funny. Dear Jason, I wrote you but you still ain't calling. I left myself. I'm waiting for my home phone at the bottom. You must not have got him. Probably was a problem at the post office or something.
Starting point is 01:02:01 Sometimes I wear these beautiful dresses. Too sloppy when jot them. But anyways, fuck it. What's been up, man? How's your daughter? Wow. That would be so fucking funny. Yeah. I don't care if it's silly because it's a beautiful, beautiful character. I would say the core of it is kill them with kindness. No matter what they feed you, no matter how negative, awful, evil mean they are, kill them with kindness. Smile at them, congratulate them on their victories. Just be nice back, just be nice back no matter what. His son was like, I should have done what you told me, dad.
Starting point is 01:02:34 You count to 10 and think again. And if that don't work, do it again. And it's like, that's what his character does. You could say he eats a lot of shit and he does, but it's, I cried probably every other episode. The first five episodes, I cried at every one. Every single time at the end, I'm tearing up, like, I wish they'd just leave him alone.
Starting point is 01:02:55 Who they're bullying for, Jason, today? They are bullying him. It's awful and he's wonderful. He's wonderful. I love him. I didn't like when they focus on the other characters too much. I like the enormous blonde woman who runs the show. She's the nun from Game of Thrones who
Starting point is 01:03:11 had the shame bell in this. She's inherited, not inherited, won the team in a divorce from her cheating billionaire husband. And she's trying to run it into the ground by hiring Jason Sudeikis, who was an American D two football coach to coach her Premier League soccer team in, uh, in London. And, uh, cause she wants it to fail because it's her ex-husband's favorite thing. And so she's great, but all the other characters, most of the other characters I don't care for that. There's a girl who's supposed to be like an egg girl.
Starting point is 01:03:39 You didn't like Roy cause I thought Roy Roy's fine. I'm okay with Roy. I'm a little tired of his bit of, Oh oh, I'm gruff. I taught like Jason Statham and I never smile. That's my thing. It's like you're not even that tough looking like my other complaint is we're supposed to be all professional athletes and I'm beat up half of them. like at least half of them. I like I bully a couple of you know how Roy got his job. No, I think you might like this. He's the writer. He wrote the show and they're like, who should we get to play Roy? And he's like, hear me
Starting point is 01:04:14 out. I think I can do this. And you know, then he like sort of auditioned for the part that he was writing and that's how he's Roy. Cool. My biggest complaint is there's the Kaylee character. She's supposed to be like a British it girl. She's like a girl celebrity, like a Spice Girl type. She's doing like advertisements and model modeling and it's like that girl is ugly as sin. She has these big goofy ugly sticking out to the side ears and she has a receding hairline that if it were on a man you would be offering. Hey dude you know about du testoride, finasteride, minoxidil, like we can fix this little micro needling like we dude you're a good looking guy we just need
Starting point is 01:04:54 to get a little more on top like like right she has a extreme like like when they show her from the side it's like okay that's where her forehead stops and then there's like more baldness and her inch they pull her hair straight back to make it even worse it's she's ugly she's like, okay, that's where her forehead stops. And then there's like more baldness in her inch. They pull her hair straight back to make it even worse. It's, she's ugly. She's like, and every character is like fawning over her and like she dates the two stars of the team. And then she dates a hot billionaire lesbian and everybody that sees her is like,
Starting point is 01:05:18 ooh, I had your posters on my wall as a kid. And it's like, dude, I don't even wanna look at that girl. That's an ugly girl. I wouldn't talk to that girl at a bar like like I wouldn't she's not attractive she's fit she's got great body she's from the neck down I thought she was very good to me her teeth jumped out more than her terror ugly ugly face ugly head ugly hair everything from the neck up I don't jump fully on board I give her six and a half okay there you go she's not a British it girl
Starting point is 01:05:44 though is she? She's not a Spice girl. Oh yeah, same team. Same, yeah, yeah, yeah. You put her next to any of the Spice girls and you're like, whoa, you're not an it girl. But I think if you were standing in a random movie theater line,
Starting point is 01:05:53 she'd be one of the top three good looking people. Sure, there's a lot of Uggos out there. Yeah, yeah, right. I mean, she's still fit, she's still the right age, demo, she's, you know, but she just For someone who's supposed to be better looking the bar the 50 55 year old blonde owner of the team way like hotter to me Okay way hotter to me that woman. She's 511 like big boobs big butt like Well shaped her arms like they mentioned a couple times like look at your arms wow like a
Starting point is 01:06:26 superhero they are like a superhero like that girl is jacked she jacked nice yes like like in a feminine like not in like overly muscular way but like in a feminine like you're fucking fit kind of way yeah she's fit everyday fit if i want to say like Like she's not show ready, so she got all dried out and lean. Yeah, she's not gonna stop, yeah. But she's fit, she stays fit, especially for her age. That's the thing that the old Woody looks at now, like, oh, are you a hot 22 year old?
Starting point is 01:06:57 That's not hard, that's not hard. Lots of people are hot at 22. If you're hot at 40, wow, I'm impressed you did it. You worked on that. Yeah. That's a result of hard work, effort and a lot of self-control. So yeah, love the show. Can't recommend it enough. I get bored with some of the other characters, but Ted Lasso himself, man. One of my favorite. Beards good. Beard. I liked it so much. There's a scene early on where he plays darts and and I immediately ordered the best dart board from the internet. That's why you
Starting point is 01:07:32 were texting me about darts yesterday. Yeah, yeah. I literally like like it came yesterday. I put it on the wall. I got a really nice dart board cabinet with fancy darts and like laser detector to make sure you don't step over the line. I didn't realize you throw those things from like eight feet away. I'm going to be good at this. I thought they were across the room making those hard shots. It's way close eight feet away. I look, and maybe maybe I'll show up in two days and I'll be like,
Starting point is 01:07:56 turns out I'm not very good at darts. I think I'm going to be good at this shit. It's like all the things I'm good at. I didn't know you did it from eight feet away. If you, if you are are if you're like coordinated and athletic like you're gonna be fine at darts. Like that's what surprised me playing darts like the first time like drunk at a bar probably 12 years ago or whatever and being like wow this is not what I imagined. I can you know the best players in the world not like I'm good but I I did see that. Yeah. Or they play not drunk. They play at a very specific level of inebriated
Starting point is 01:08:32 where they're like, you know, would you like another pint, sir? And he's like, what are you daft? I've had four. In 25 minutes, I'll have another small pint and then I'll sip that because I need to stay right at point O whatever to maintain my hands. I think alcohol is banned in the Olympics because it I think it's evening out some tremors in your
Starting point is 01:08:49 hand maybe and certainly taking the edge off your nerves. I heard that they compete like they train and since they always train at the bar they want to you know mimic that experience. Yeah if you only ever practice drunk then you certainly wouldn't want to go to the game. Right? And not have a drink. You'd totally suck if you were nervous. Yeah, can't recommend Ted Lasso enough, but goddamn, it makes me cry so much. There's so much dark stuff,
Starting point is 01:09:16 and just sad, sad, make you feel kind of shit. You know? It's just, I watch shows with Jackie, and sometimes we're like, this show has no business being this good. Like this impactful on my emotions. Like this is supposed to be a silly comedy and tears and stuff. Yeah. Oh yeah. Yeah. I, uh, I, I, I cried throughout it. Like I haven't a bit of emotional breakdown. I had to like, I had to parse my Ted Lasso out or I was going to go into depression. You're not telling that this is rough. It's not all bad. He has his wins. Yeah, it's it's uh he makes you want to be more like him. You
Starting point is 01:09:57 have to be low lows. Appreciate the highs. Yeah Ted Lasso makes me want to be a
