Why hello and welcome back to even more news the first and only news podcast my name is katie stole why hello katie stole hello to you and welcome to you to the show as well hi i'm cody well thank you cody i feel so welcomed i would also like to extend that welcome to our guest someone we should have had on forever ago. We're all acknowledging it right up top. Without further ado, today's guest is Propaganda, aka Prop, rapper and co-host of the Hood Politics Podcast. Let's go! I was in my feelings. I was like, man, i don't know if they like they really not i feel like we're friends with all the same friends man we are we are we are

like dang i'm cool i just smoke too much weed and forget that i decide something i feel you you know it is like it is it it's a normal side effect you know you did you all did y'all have the like wait what was i saying does that happen to you like is that okay cool i was like i feel like that's like the normal it happens to me more now more now than it did before and yeah i can attribute it to weed i also attribute it to everything that's happened over the last couple of years. There's just a lot of different thoughts running through my head at any one moment. In my practice, I started off joking, but actually the truth is, is that I need to work on my mindfulness and being present. And sure, weed probably contributes to a lack of mindfulness.

Totally. Yeah. It helps you be mindful in ways. Yeah. Okay. We're going to chat. We're going to chat. We're gonna chat we're chatting to chat about but first but first shout out some holidays let's go april 22nd today the day this is released well we're recording it on the april 21st but for all intents and purposes. It is Earth Day. Happy Earth Day. Let's go.

Let's celebrate this bitch. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? We're still doing that? We're still doing Earth Day? At this point, I feel like if I was Earth, I would be like, man, keep your holiday, dog. Yeah, I don't. Keep it.

Leave me the fuck alone, man. I'm clearly trying to kick y'all off. Like, I'm clearly trying to get y'all off out my house. Quit sending me cards. They just end up in a landfill anyway. That's what I was going to say. I was like, oh. Yeah, you're going to throw me a party or are we going to have like paper plates?

Great. Thanks. Exactly. I've been seeing a sign around Los Angeles that's, you know, Earth Day is coming up. Honor it by not. Okay. Don't drive. Take public transportation on April 22nd.

And each time I'm like, fuck you. We don't have good public transportation. We do have options. We have options, but not really. Yeah. Tell us the carpool. Like something a little more like Californian. But like, yeah, I when I was in high school, I'm one of the few natives. And I was like, you know, the idea of asking my parents, you know, you turn 16, you get a car.

Like, are you kidding me? That's not something you don't. That's not going to happen. So I don't even think about asking. You know what I'm saying? that's not something you don't that's not gonna happen so i didn't even think about asking you know i'm saying so you was either hopping in other people's cars or trying to and so you know me i'm south central moved around a lot but like trying to like do something as simple as like get down to like there's a kickback in like dog town in like south santa monica you just want to get there to like you know hopping fences skating empty pools like i'm an la kid you know oh i want your childhood a little yes that sounds kind of fun it was so fun but it's three hours yeah it would be three hours to get there and you're like i'm not going not because i'm scared to get in trouble is that like by the

time i get there i'm gonna have to come right back yeah so i'm like you can't just it's got to be like um okay if i'm a ditch school it's got to be like and i'm gonna spend the night at myron's house so sure don't ask no questions you know yeah i'll get there and i'll stay there yes i'm taking my backpack and my clothes so it's worth a three-hour walk. Yeah, right. Okay, so it does sound fun when you would have the opportunity to do it. If you could pull it off. If one of your friends, like, has got a car and, like, you guys can, like, sit, like, four people in the back, you know, and get down there. That's a fun anecdote of a real problem here in Los angeles that uh they've taken way too long to address i mean there was they would actively block plans to expand public transportation

uh to the west side because they didn't want unhoused people or oh yeah you can't go to the west side yeah to show up well fuck you i don't even like the west side that much i mean sure it's got the ocean but i got the trees over here. It does have the ocean. It does have Santa Monica. Yeah, you can take it to Santa Monica now. You can. I mean, it's expanded, but for a long time, that's just within the last while.

I used to say, when you have out-of-towners come in town, I'll be like, yo, friends don't let friends stay in the West Side. Unless it's like Inglewood, you know what i'm saying but like generally we're like dude like and everybody that hates la i'm like you mean the west side you made that part of la that's what you mean you've never been to la it's usually my answer is like you've actually never been but because you don't leave the west side too because you

don't leave yeah well people come here and they think yeah well i'm coming to los angeles i want to go to the beach the beaches are whatever here i'm coming to Los Angeles. I want to go to the beach. The beaches are whatever here. I mean, if you want, if you really want to go to see a nice beach, drive north or south. Yeah. If there's anything that Orange County got on us. Yeah. Or go to like Big Sur area.

All of it's fucking cold. You're going to need a wetsuit to get in the water. You might as well go somewhere else that doesn't have Santa Monica energy. The important thing is that to get there, you take public transportation one day out of the year, which is Earth Day. Which is Earth Day. Thanks for bringing it back around. Yes. Yeah, you got it.

I know what it is why don't you pitch it why don't you tell our listeners about your show yeah I'll just go and pitch it real quick nah I think it kind of came out of like before music before all this like I taught I taught 9th ninth graders to high school uh and i taught in the juvenile hall system and my i for myself to make sort of like geopolitics

make sense i was just like i imagined them as gangs yeah and then i was like well i understand gangs you know i'm saying and i'm like what would they do in this situation i'm like yo they would probably say this this and this and then it usually turns out that's exactly what the nation state did so in in a in an attempt to uh sort of get my brain around um just the political spectrum whether it's just history politics sociology whatever it was uh i just felt like man the more you understand sort of if you survived middle school you just understand just inner city if you know how to deal with a bully like you actually understand politics like

these people aren't that much more smarter than you you know yeah and um i think for me it was like like a good way to think about it's like okay. So like I've never gangbanged a day in my life, but I had to understand exactly how they moved if I was going to survive growing up in L.A. And I had to understand them better than they understood me. You know what I'm saying? If I'm going to survive this city. Oh, I mean, I've never ran for office. You know, I'm not a I'm not a politician, but if I'm going to survive the world I live in, I better understand how y'all move. You know, so that's that is in a nutshell of politics. but if I'm gonna survive the world I live in I better understand how y'all move you know so that's that is in a nutshell hood politics we're just we're we're we're we're taking issues history moments you know hot takes whatever and trying to bring explain them in a in a way that any of us

can get our brains around yeah man that's so important and i feel a kinship to that as to like when we started doing this show i felt really insecure about uh who am i to talk about politics you know but you but what we need what we all have been desperate for i've realized is to talk to real people listen to real people who are digesting this yeah yeah are doing the work to understand it to unpack it but it's it's like i don't need to listen to these politicians who um are at best purposefully obtuse sometimes totally but also have their own agendas to uh to understand what's happening around us because i don't even fucking trust it i don't yeah i'm like and i'm like these people aren't smarter than you it's just a different vocabulary so i think that like

and that was one of the biggest things when i you know when i when i was teaching these like you know incarcerated kids and then you know i taught over in pomona too i don't know how familiar you are with california but like yeah i taught at pomona for a while and i'm like the biggest thing was like yo these people are not smarter than you you actually understand this stuff you know i'm saying it's so important to saying yes yes and hopefully they want to make you feel stupid yes they want to make you feel stupid so that we just listen to what they say yeah they need their control and so they frame it like that and then but they aren't convinced people that no i mean most of them like and punt like pundits and like politicians like everybody like you're all we're all the same we're all

fucking idiots yes her own way you know i'm saying it's also like buying into this narrative that you have to go get this degree or have this kind of job to understand the world when actually the smartest people i know usually are the ones that didn't throw away a hundred thousand dollars you talk to them it's not gonna take you and i'm not saying that you should hello I'm saying that you shouldn't assume that that's your only path. Yes, that that is the only type of intelligence. Because a lot of dum-dums graduate college and get good jobs. We see them all the time.

All the time. Yeah. It's easy to pass. Like, literally. So I got my stepdaughter, you know, who's my daughter. I mean, since she was three, I've been raising her. You know what I'm saying? my stepdaughter you know who's my daughter i mean since she was three i've been raising her you know what i'm saying but like she's she's she's in high school now um which is a weird thing within itself

but like the biggest thing was like listen dude like school's easy they're gonna tell you what they want you to know just write it down and tell it back to them that's all you gotta do that's how you get through school just what did you just say okay write it down now the test is what you just told me okay here's what you just said like it's not it's not hard you know i'm saying like never you know never get tired of learning like always always love learning but this this transactional just repeat back what they said to you it's not hard this don't make you smart you know um so yeah so and then one of the ultimate goals even for hood politics is like man i'm trying to i would love to like you know on board i would love to see some thugs run for office sure you know what i mean like yeah i really do i would love that too

they would just because i feel like they understand the city much more they understand how this stuff works especially like when you think about like grassroots organizing like i know dudes that right now could make send a couple texts and get 100 people outside like you can organize like politicians pay firms to be able to get 100 people in a neighborhood outside for an event i'm like you could do that right now yeah you know so i'm like you have actual you know clout or power in a community. You know what I'm saying? Absolutely. Yeah.

What did you? Go ahead, Cody. No, you go ahead. I was just going to agree. The goal is to make you think you don't. Yes. And you can't do that. Yeah.

I was going to ask, what did you teach before? I taught social science. So Charter High school for the arts um i taught the uh class that was essentially like a survey of how history works like how sociology works and then after that i taught like psychology and sociology with i mean that's a wide range it was pretty dope the first yeah the first the first semester or the, the first semester was essentially intercultural studies. You know, just so that, like, you have an understanding of, like, we're not just learning dates and facts. Like, you're trying to figure out your place in the world.

So that was, like, the first semester. And after that, it was more about, like, again, because these were inner city kids. It's like, let me teach you some interpersonal skills. You know what saying give you some like understanding of like what is trauma what is ptsd like you're you're actually currently experiencing it right now yeah you know i'm saying because your brother was shot on the street corner right over there that you see every day you know i'm saying so like that's traumatizing that's that's a your behavioral problems are a trauma response a lot of people have a hard time accepting it because they see themselves as oh i'm strong i'm good i don't want to be a problem or whatever it is it doesn't matter how strong you are you're traumatized

no it is what it is you know i'm saying and you like reacting to me like you know all you can't tell me what that's the defense bro like i get it you know i'm saying like you know i'm saying and you like reacting to me like you know all you can't tell me what that's the defense bro like i get it you know i'm saying like you know i'm saying so just having somebody for them that like you know came from not the same environment but very similar environment you know i'm saying that is like i'm not i'm not scared of you you know what i mean like you know you i'm not scared i'm not scared of your brother. I ain't scared of your uncle. I ain't scared of none of them. You know what I'm saying? Like I'm here. I don't know. If I'm already at the place where I finished college and I'm teaching high school now, like trust me, I'm not scared of your family.

You know what I mean? But at the same time, it's like I, you know, without going off too much, like I know the rules. Like I'm not going to go out there and like disrespect your uncle. is his hood you know i'm saying like you know i like i actually need him on our side you know if you feel me so so yeah you know so teaching psychology was actually it's crazy because a lot of those kids like dude like went on to do amazing things because it was this inner city high school for the arts one of them like one of my students is in charge of the merch tent at coachella like really yeah like they went on and did like dope stuff another kid is like cool man yeah the buyer for the roxy like these kids like they went on another kid right now that like

i just put him on a song this week he's shot big sean's last video like they're like doing the thing now you know i'm saying and these were like kids that got kicked out of every other school in a district that has to feel so good to see to see that happen those that change happen and to get also they obviously respect you a lot because you're still in their life as well this is true yeah that's that's a big deal um we got to talk about the news unfortunately let's do it um really quick though i do want to shout out that on hood politics that you're doing a two-parter with jake hanrahan right now um about war and the first one was a really interesting conversation are they both out or is that the

second part today oh cool yeah awesome well i have that to look forward to yeah um i just wanted to shout that out because what i really enjoy about what you're i it goes along with everything we're saying but that episode specifically you're highlighting the importance of understanding the war conflicts that are happening yeah around the world not just in ukraine and yes that there is nuance to talking about it like yes this yes, this is terrible. What's happening? Yes, there is a history of Nazism in the country and, you know, white supremacy or whatever you want to call it. But there's nuance to it and you can unpack it. And so I do want to encourage people to check that out because.

Yeah, thank you. It's a good listen. Yeah, this next one's the like the ethiopian conflict yeah ethiopia and yemen you know i don't know that much about and why i'm yeah looking forward to it you know i know i know broad strokes some things but you know we need it we need to have we need to be absorbing what's happening around the world not just here and then especially like the reality of like how direct like we're going to talk about like like you know and you know i don't believe in the oppression olympics

and like you know who had it worse you know i'm saying and that's part of the problem is like judging who's worthy of our sympathy you know obviously that's that's counterproductive that's not what we're doing here you know that, that being said, it's like, where has America actually shed blood? You know what I'm saying? We could actually be like, yo, we're actually, we're kind of in this one. Like, you know what I'm saying?

So when you looking, you know, you yelling across the country at Ukraine, it's like, of course we could draw, you know, if you're paying attention, you could connect the dots. But I'm'm like we're actively selling to the to saudi you were actually actively selling guns to them for them to commit genocides in yemen like with that's our those are our dollars folks that's your money and we we condemn yeah but all of a sudden, we're BFF with MBS or whomever. Not all of a sudden.

Not all of a sudden. I know. But at least in the rhetoric a couple years ago, we would be like, oh, you know, we can't. This guy is a dictator, a murderer. And now all of a sudden, not all of a sudden, take that out of my vocabulary. He's sending weapons over there. Me too, however.

It's like, yeah, he's, I mean, you know, that's a dictator and he terrible, but like his checks clear. And when your checks clear, when the cash happen, it's like, that's the great, that's the great cleaner right there.

That's the 409, homie. You know what I'm saying? Oh yeah's that's the great that's the great cleaner right there that's the 409 homie you know what i'm saying oh yeah that's the fabulous jared kushner just got a nice two billion dollar contract with the saudi government oh good for him i don't know right happened hey speaking of speaking to somebody who just like shitted their way through school and you know yeah i mean there's the perfect example of like these people are not smart yes make two billion dollar deals yeah

alright I'm gonna do a hard pivot well we don't have to be nice but we do have to talk about the news is it good news? which we were no hardly ever I mean I guess it depends on who's listening to this plenty of people think this is good news were no hardly ever okay i mean i guess it depends on who's listening to this plenty of people think this is good news the end of the federal mask mandate on planes as we are starting our journey today let's go let's let's go um fly a plane i I know, right? So this happened. There's some things to unpack here.

Judge Catherine Kimball Mizell is the judge who did the deed, tossed it out. Is she good? It's done. She's not good. It turns out she is one of the Trump appointees that was deemed not qualified

by the American Bar Association, given, quote, Wait, I'm sorry, what? To like, deemed not qualified by the American Bar Association given quote wait I'm sorry what it's important to note that this is true of many of the people he appointed like every week there was like by the way the Bar Association

every week during that period is like this person the Bar Association thinks they're unqualified they're using the word unqualified for it but there was so much shit happening what are you what are you gonna do um no no she was i believe i don't have it in front of me but i believe she was the 10th one that was given incredible um label not qualified and it's it's like it's one of the reasons it's specifically because he was appointing so many young conservatives to the bench so the american bar association's like she's very intelligent she's written a lot of interesting this and that

but she just has very little experience on the trials yeah maybe not maybe she should be a federal especially ready because uh public health law legal experts are saying that her decision completely misunderstands public health law. And it's very frustrating. I guess what this is contingent on is, I guess that it was a 1944 law, which, you know, that they were using to enforce the mask mandate. And the law included things like sanitation

and that you would allow for measures that would help increase public health or sanitation. But the sanitation is the word that she's getting hinged upon, I believe, is the reason why this is getting thrown out. Yeah, because- She's like, it's not a cleaning product. No, sorry, I should say that.

Cut me saying that. I don't want to call her only mother planet earth um or you can leave it in and just bleep it yeah it's earth day i don't care it's a day yeah no it's uh it's because the interpretation is uh if you like sanitation sanitizing involves like yeah like wiping something down or cleaning something or fumigating or whatever it is um not wearing a mask which i would say like is preventative and does sanitize by like not getting droplets of like viruses i just still feel like this this is the most of all the flash points in a culture war i just feel like this is the most bizarre i still don't understand why this is y'all's hill i just like i wish i could i i okay i'm like i think it's absurd your your your take on your take on on vaccines is like lukewarm at best like this ain't no you know i'm saying uh yeah but i could see how that's the hill you're gonna stand on you know i'm saying die on that hill i'll follow you so be logical and be like all right if

a virus come out of your nose and mouth you should cover your nose and mouth if you've ever been on a plane and you smell the recycling farts because it's just they recycling like i just don't i just don't understand we also almost always get sick on planes and you get sick i was like yeah i was like i spent the last 10 years i spent the last 10 years of touring artists i'm like this a mask on the plane i was just glad it just stopped being uh uh uh you know like socially unacceptable i was like you don't need me to tell you don't need to tell me this this don't need to be a lie oh it's cool i wear a mask now oh i've been wanting to this whole time i just didn't want to look like a weirdo you know i'm saying because i'm like

because i get sick every year and i get sick from the plane you know i'm saying and i'm like and it's so like airports at least in general because like even like uh aren't airplanes like they're the the filters they uh in the air and planes like yeah pretty good compared to other places itself that's the worst yeah and like i don't know so like i uh didn't go out for a long time obviously for obvious reasons we've all been yeah aware of what's going on. Living through the last couple of years. Yeah, yeah.

You're familiar. And one of the first times I actually went out was to go see Dune in the theaters. And I went to the food court. And I even made a joke while there. Like, yeah, I'm going to get sick with all the freaks. It was like a packed food court. And I had a mask on a little bit, took it down, eating stuff stuff like that and then got sick uh yeah the next day yeah didn't get covid yeah but it's like yeah it's like you got a cold this is what this is how you get sick y'all like

yo it's just i i don't i don't get why like i don't need to me it's like the federal mandate for something like this is erroneous because i'm like i don't need a law to tell me not to lick a toilet like i'm not gonna lick the toilet whether it's a law or not because it's absurd to lick a toilet like i could get sick because and i don't like being sick and that's nasty so i just don't reasons all of them yeah that's what i'm saying like really good reasons yeah so you even i'm just like this is like i like why i gotta tell you this again going back to the fact that okay i have two children you know one's a six-year-old the other's a teenager and there are some things that you're just like i can't believe i have to i can't believe this has to be a house rule like i don't

understand explain this to you why do i have to explain this to you like that's but i never understood it either it's like yeah especially because i've never particularly found wearing a mask to be cumbersome or onerous like i get we'd rather not do it but i think it's got to be a symbol because just wearing a mask is like not a big deal oh yeah happily do it it's uh the reason like the reason they're choosing this as a hill to die on is because every single thing is a hill now. It has to be. If people say one thing, there has to be this group of people

who are like, well, actually, it's totalitarianism or whatever it is. You know, Trump made it an issue from the very beginning. It didn't have to be, but everything is a hill. And now... It's hard to not see a

kindergartner in it. And just being like, when you're like, hey, your shoe's untied. And they're like, no, it's not. I'm looking at your shoe right now. It's untied. No, it's not. Hey, you're going to fall. No, I won't. You're acting like a dumbass. Yeah, okay, well then

fall then. Your undeveloped prefrontal cortex child a child will do that to learn consequences but these are you a full-grown human yeah and it's impossible to win that argument with like normal adult logic like you can't yeah there's yeah there's nothing so yeah so what i to, before we end up taking a break, I want to talk about how this was announced for many people. Mid-fucking-flight. Yeah, that's wild. People who are on a plane traveling, many of them immunocompromised or with children still too young to be vaccinated. And everybody starts celebrating and tearing off their masks.

Story after story. Every so often I've seen a story of someone being like, well, my pilot decided to wait until we landed and I really was grateful for that. But it's just unbelievable. Like a pilot who treats it like a job that's important where like everybody on the plane is sort of like in your care

and your responsibility to get there somewhere safe. Maybe wait until you land to tell them to take off their fucking masks. I mean, I just feel like, like again, if you've been on as many planes as I have, when you just like, I seen somebody just take off shoes and socks you know stick them

stick them right in between the chair next to them you know what i'm saying and socks and socks and socks you know nasty just nasty like y'all like y'all nasty so i'm just like that's an entitlement yeah you know so i just be like okay i already there's there's no telling the spectrum of when's the last time any of y'all washed your hands on this plane so i'm like if i see the second i see everybody taking one off i like being on if i was on a plane back then i just took out another mask and doubled up i know i was thinking i would have just done it doubled up i'd be like oh word nah fam I saw how you ate your food here like you know what I'm saying

you see this you see people on planes and I'll be like fam you see the worst of us you understand the rest of us can see it's like in the car when you pick it in your nose it's like the windows are not walls like we can see you fam we can see you and

we're going to the same place which yeah i'll see you there it's only a couple hours g it's only a couple hours just we'll be in the baggage claim and the car rental right yes i'm gonna put an n95 on someone's like barefoot next to you yeah yeah jonathan has to travel tomorrow i'm like, this entire conversation is stressing me out because I'm flying. Before you hopped on, Prop, he was like, I figured out what I'll say to somebody if they give me a hard time for wearing my mask.

I was like, yeah, I mean, it's... I got herpes, G. Yeah. You don't want to see this on me. There you go. That's much better than what I had. I was like, oh, it's herpes, fam. You don't want to see this on me.

Sorry, G. You don't want to see this because like look trust me you haven't eaten yet you know i'm saying take a deep breath it's like the idea of like doing it in the middle of the flight when you know that there are people who agreed to go on the plane because they know that people wear masks on it like they're buying the ticket with knowledge of or purported knowledge of like how the flight is going to go and how they're going to feel safe. It's so kind of fucked up. Yeah. Yeah. Even appealing to like, you know, the personal responsibility argument is like, well, I guess you don't know a lot of people because a lot of people ain't responsible.

You know what I'm saying? And I'm like, look, they reckless. So like so like i'm not gonna appeal to you because you reckless again there are a lot of laws that for me i don't think about at all because they're never going to apply like i'm you don't need to tell me this do you know what i'm saying like yeah that's good it's very common this is a common sense thing you don't have to tell me that yeah but these people do but um i i just would be remiss if i did not mention that this comes as uh there is an uptake uptick in cases in the country uh the new sub variant making its way and it just appears to be never ending fine that's the thing that we're gonna let it happen and we'll see you know hospitalizations and deaths are still down um even if there are cases being transmitted it just was

so soon so abrupt yeah without apparent consideration of what's actually happening with the disease and where we are in terms of vaccinations with kids. And you don't just do it and then not give people time to prepare. At least say the mask mandate is going to end in a week. How about that? So then you make alternate plans. And when pressed about this, you know, Biden, you know, the justice department punted to the CDC,

the CDC who has said that they would like the justice department punted to the cdc the cdc who has said that they would like the justice department to appeal it um and perhaps they will but it will take months and months and months and we will no longer uh be having the same conversation and biden's um response was pretty good rambo did he seem like spry not at all neither of those things no what was his response shrug it's up to them whether americans want to wear skippy um we need to take a quick break guy rules oh sorry before we do real quick just to close out the mask thing yeah it is also it is, I mean, hopefully they do appeal it. And like this Trump judge who's unqualified doesn't speak for the future.

But what if there's another pandemic and we need to have people wear masks on plane? How about that? Yeah, the precedent that's being set is terrifying. This is the evidence that she don't know what she's doing. Cody, we've beat pandemics. We're never having one again. Oh, all of them. Okay, good.

We're done. This one didn't go so well, so I don't think we should do it again. Oh, okay. I don't want to be controversial, but I think it's just not going to happen. We handled it poorly, so we just won't do it again.

Great. We won't. All right. Quick break for ads. And also, I got just won't do it again. Great. We won't. All right. Quick break for ads. And also, I got to pee. Oh, good. You know, ever since I fell down that wishing well, I've been thinking a lot about my health lately and how perhaps if I'd eaten better, I could have climbed out of the three foot enclosure instead of having to sit there while everyone at the mall laughed at me.

But did you know that in 1804, they also set out into the unknown on a mission to explore the uncharted West and find an all-water route to the Pacific Ocean?

That's news to me, and I'm a newsman! Perhaps I should listen to Wondry's series, American History Tellers. It's a podcast that explores extraordinary events in history. This season covering the expedition of Meriwether Lewis and William Clark. Like, geez, we all know their names and their journey to take down Lex Luthor and then how Clark went on to open a bar

on Deep Space Nine, but how well do we really remember their story? American History Tellers will take you on a journey through mountain ranges and harrowing rapids to uncover an expedition that was about far more than exploration and science, but also leadership and luck and about who truly owns the American Northwest. Because I'm pretty sure it wasn't us. Also, I'm sure there's some stuff about the hollow suites.

It would be weird if there weren't things about the hollow suites. So check it out today. Listen to American History Tellers, Lewis and Clark on Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, or you can listen ad-free by joining Wondry Plus in the Wondry app. And we are back as promised for even more news. Dang, that's great for us. Promises made, promises kept. Promises, promises. Like I said, not a musician. Doesn't matter. made, promises kept. Promises, promises.

Like I said, not a musician. Doesn't matter. Beg the difference. Everyone's a musician. Everyone's a musician. This is going to be fun, though. What I'm about to do is going to be fun. We're going to talk about Tucker and his masculinity series.

Yes. Listeners. It's true. I specifically requested that if I'm going be on this show you cannot cover this without me i was like i wouldn't dream of it no i was like we're so far ahead of you yeah oh my gosh yes uh god you guys i don't know if you guys have seen it uh how do we even start like yeah if you haven't okay fox nations has Nations has a new special from Tucker Carlson called The End of Men. Because masculinity is under assault in the United States.

And it's very ridiculous. I don't think that we can play the trailer for you guys because it's a lot of montages of men. It's extremely visual. Like naked, backlit. One of them, he's got like some sort of a remote in front of his dick, which I'm now, it's a red light device of some sort. We'll get into that.

Actually, we'll get into that right now. Why not? Please do that. So I guess for this show, I think it's for this show, Tucker conducted an interview with a personal trainer named Andrew McGovern who is promoting red light therapy um which tucker is calling testicle tanning as uh as one should

as a way to increase your testosterone jonathan do you have a clip for us that we can you know oh i do with the people clip if you know what I mean. This is a good one. Sorry. I'm so excited about this. Okay, here we go. You saw in the clip there, if you want to optimize and take it to another level, expose yourself

to red light therapy. In the juve that we were using in the documentary, there's a massive amount of that. Which is testicle tan a massive amount of testicle tanning it's testicle tanning but it's also full body uh red light therapy which has massive amount of benefits and there's so much data out there um that isn't being picked up on our coverage so obviously half the viewers right now are like what that's testicle tanning that's crazy yeah only half my view is okay testosterone levels crash and nobody says anything about it that's crazy. Yeah, I only have- But my view is, okay, testosterone levels crash

and nobody says anything about it. That's crazy. So why is it crazy to seek solutions? It's not crazy to seek solutions. And I think I was recently exposed to a term called bromeopathy. And I think there's- Ah!

Ah! Ah! There. Ah! Yes. I love like phrasing of like I was exposed to it

a clinical term it's so good it's yummy I love these people so much okay prop let us have it I need to hear your thoughts okay okay oh let me catch my breath there's so many things happening here just

just testosterone's drop over time what that's it's called aging fam like what is you talking what are you talking about so there's the the doubling down first of all on fox with tucker carlson just double down on it just give him a special. Oh, yeah. He's got a whole channel now, basically. It's just you doubling down on him. So I'm like, okay, so there's that. But, okay. I have to back up. Okay.

And I have a life theory that I really hope y'all appreciate. Oh, my God. I can't wait. Yes. It's strong for me being just a huge like will ferrell fan that i'm just like and then i started realizing that whether i'm laughing with or laughing at white men are the funniest people on earth oh yeah whether i'm laughing with you or at you i'm just like what the fuck is wrong with white boys like i don't you're this is so funny you know i'm saying like so funny you when you

just like just pick anything i'm like what what the hell you jump off a cliff for like what the fuck is wrong with you why is that fun you know i'm saying so just so there's that you know i'm saying there's like yeah if you ever go drinking with white boys i'm like listen it's real simple to me like i got i like i like whiskeys and you know i'm saying and there's things that i appreciate that i'm like y'all make a snobbity out of anything you know i'm saying so like i enjoy the fact that like you go drink with like a white boy and make a snobbity out of his wish you don't drink some good which right now there's some whistle pig over here i somebody bought somebody couldn't afford to pay me for a show so they bought me a bottle of pappy van winkle which meant to me you

could actually afford to pay me for this show but i take the cash but you're saying i'm saying but stuff like that but if you just go if you just go douchebag frat boy white boy you're like this fool will drink the Drano like you don't care like what what's in this I don't fucking care bro you know I'm saying I'm just like your purpose like for me it's like if we going out we're going out to have fun and drinks are a part of it like you talk to a white boy he's like what's the purpose we're getting shit-faced the goal tonight is to get shit-faced. I'm just like, what the fuck wrong with white boys?

Like, it is just so, and then just, it's, I don't. I would posit that's some unhealed trauma. Yes. I'm like, some in y'all DNA going back to Homo erectus, y'all decided that it was your job to colonize the planet right and so so you colonize the entire planet and the one thing you can't be is outside in front of the sun because you guys you gotta get 10 because because the sun gonna give you cancer you got the whole world you can't enjoy it because the sun gonna give you cancer the sun hates us because that's

why we need i'm like we need red light therapy that's why you's why we need red light therapy. That's why you need red light. So you need red light therapy on your scrotum. I'm just like, what the fuck wrong with y'all? It's called being a man. Thank you very much. It's ridiculous. I just need to say, I mean, I mumbled it while the clip was playing. There is no data. There is no data. There is no data.

So I will say there is some research, but nothing like confirmed into the like specific into the like effects for skin conditions. So psoriasis, you know, skin cancer and whatnot. But even that. Me and my wife looked it up. Because I was like, me and my wife looked it up because i was like me and my wife looked it up i was like babe this is the funniest shit i ever seen so we looked it up and she's my wife is a phd in educational policy she's a professional researcher she was like okay i'm gonna find out if there's any science to this they tested it on rats and they have different

hormone responses and they said the hormone response in rats the hormone that's responding is the part of the rat that we ain't got so anytime even if their response you ain't even got that hormone oh anytime someone who's not a scientist in an interview says there's so much data yes and then stops yes and there is no data don't even bother i mean look it up go you know research but also don't bother looking it up unless you get psoriasis i guess maybe i have a hard time with like it's like when you cannot that's why i'll say whether i'm laughing with you or laughing at you because i'm like because there is the white dude that just don't take himself serious.

This nothing's precious. It's fine. It's like it's all funny. Like, who cares? You know what I'm saying? Let's just enjoy ourselves. You're a cool guy. I'm a cool guy. I like music. I like music. Let's go have some whiskey. Like there's that. And I'm like, I enjoy that because it's like you can make levity out of stuff that like i'm like i need that type of perspective that perspective that's just like dude just we talking about go try it go let them one of the things one of the things i learned from like my white boy homie homies was like listen let them tell you no like you know i'm saying like and that's something that like like we want to shoot a music video at dodger stadium we'll go shoot at the dodger stadium like what are you talking about?

Dude, let them tell you no. Get there. And if they say no, you can't do it, then don't do it. It's fine. But just go. Why are you just? White men are really good at that. And doing that.

It's entitlement. It's exactly what it is. It's not being told no. It's not being told no. And it's also not having a fear of consequences because your life is such that you haven't received the same consequences that other people have um exactly and i i should include white women as well but maybe to a lesser degree because to me that was always something personally that i was like how do how do you do it i yeah i don't know how you just do that so if that is true it's like mentality yeah and if that's run

amok if no one at some point looked at you and said bam shut the fuck up then you get to i'm gonna put a red light on my dick because because nobody stopped you in college and was like hey bro you don't know what the fuck you're talking about. Like, look, chill. Like, learn something real quick. Like, relax, bro. Yeah, it's an inability to be told that they're wrong or accept that. But what is happening here is a tapping into – Oh, go ahead. Sorry.

Oh, just real quick on that point. It's interesting because we've talked about this before. Tucker Carlson literally – he's only on TV because of what you're talking about. Yeah. He was in print journalism. And everyone was on break during lunch and he just got in the hot dog. He referred to it as a takeout hot dog because he's a fancy boy. But someone was asked, went to his desk like, hey, we need somebody or this show needs like

60 minutes. Some show needs an expert on the OJ trial to go on and talk about the oj trial uh and tucker uh and he admitted freely admits this like i didn't know anything about the oj trial it's in his book isn't it it's in his book i didn't know a thing about it said yes uh was on tv the next night and like that's the start of his uh career on television just lying yes being overly confident about not knowing anything and then getting away with it and i mean yeah and now here he is it. And I mean, yeah. And now here he is saying like, here's an example.

Yeah. Laser your testicles. But what this is, the whole concept of the show and this narrative is essential to his existence and his profession is to create the idea that men are under attack that white yeah it's fascist fear-mongering you know that that um our testosterone levels are plummeting they aren't you're aging um yeah you know you're just aging bro i guess you eat meat i'm don't but i guess that can help i don't know um but like it's just life that's life you're not under attack you aren't under assault but it's yeah it's that old saying that like you know it's everybody goes oh every time you hear we've said a million times but it's like yeah oh you know equality is oppression if all you

know is privilege you know so like if that's all you know and then somebody actually qualified that wasn't you got a position that you wanted and you're like well what's cool how come they got it well because they're qualified for the job fam that's why as opposed to like but i'm less than now i'm less but wait but wait yeah but wait but if you give it to them then it's like it's the assumption that I have the same mentality that you do. That you're controlling this so that I will stay oppressed. So you think if I get in power, I'm going to do the same thing. Where I'm like, bro, I just wanted a job, fam. I want equity.

I'm not even thinking about you. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. I want a job. I want to work. It's like the mentality behind it. It's like Turner's the uh this the mentality behind like it's like turner diary shit where it's like if you know if we like if we have equality then they'll do to us what we did to them

yeah well what what if nobody wants that like yeah what if what if nobody does that right yeah exactly what if we know that was terrible yeah also giving people jobs or whatever it's not like all of a sudden white men can't get work or white men are uh you know gonna be subjugated because and dude and even just like and even just like yo just the just the cupcake-ness and like and i and it's almost like i have to use the like that language for them to where it's like because part of me is just like i'll give shit what you think manhood is like you you know i'm saying like it don't matter to me at all you don't matter you know i mean uh but just the cupcakeness of the fact that you care so much you know i'm saying is to me it's like absolutely

that's very non-manly to me you care too much you're right like their view of what it would be yeah exactly i don't from your perspective you're being not masculine you're exactly yeah using your logic you caring about this ain't very manly right and also using that i just i mean not to be i i don't know conversations about what's masculine exactly or feminine or bullshit and blah, blah, blah. But if we're playing by the rules and in this conversation, why are you dressed in elf shoes, Tucker? If that's what you want to convey is masculinity, what the fuck are you wearing? Well, he's like the fanciest fraud in the world.

He's like a little man. Swanson boy with his little bow tie. They kind of curve up. I mean, even that photo shoot he did. They're fancy boy shoes. They look ridiculous. That photo shoot he did

in like his wood shop or whatever and it was like in the foreground was a toolbox that was literally empty. It was like right front and center

just empty toolbox. Pristine. Pristine. Never used. Clean, everything. And it's just like, you know, it's frustrating because like what he's doing is fascist fear-mongering yeah he's a he's a he's a propagandist uh uh for his right-wing uh fantasy and but he's also a very silly man yeah uh so it's very funny tension of like you're doing this awful shit and like you're

you're like convincing people of this and this and this and your agenda is this but also you're a silly man yeah so it's hard to always be like look the dangerous tucker carlson it's like no look at this fucking guy that's what i'm saying so i'm like in my in my like you know i feel like like you said like even what is masculinity like you know fuck if i know you know i'm saying but i do know very whether it's healthy or not whether it's truly masculine or not it's like the code i've lived by whether it was from the streets my family my church whatever it was it was very simple yo take care of your home i don't want you worried about anything else take care of your folks make it better for the people after you that's it you know i'm saying i'm not i'm not

even like i'm not even thinking about you you feel me like i'm not even like i don't even i don't even need to show my strength unless it's necessary i don't need to show you anything yeah because your opinion like it don't matter to me like it doesn't matter yeah like if you if it matters to you then it's a real testament to their own insecurities exactly that's what i'm saying like it's a reflection of them yes not anybody else because that is just like anything that's you that's your relationship you sound goofy goofy. Like the one of the two worst things like a black man could call you is goofy and a weirdo. Like so I'm just like you just look goofy. Like you know what I'm saying? Like goofball. Yeah. You know? And that's what he looked like to

me. I'm like y'all look like goofballs. Okay, Jonathan, it's that time. Can you take us through some broken news stories, please? Pretty please. I sure can. First one here is Arizona Republican Debbie Lasko has deleted a tweet where she said one billion migrants have been apprehended at the US-Mexico border in the last six months. The true number is one million, which is still a lot of people. It's a lot of people. The true number is 1 million, which is still a lot of people. It's a lot of people.

But more than half of those people were expelled under Title 42, which is the policy about we can expel people to prevent COVID from spreading. Take your mask off. Right, right. I believe Title 42 is ended now or is ending. They're planning to end it by May 23rd anyway because we don't care about COVID anymore. But the masks first, then that. I'm sure they'll find another excuse. Of course.

Oh, yeah. Absolutely. Yes, absolutely. It was a convenient for, I think, by the administration that this was in place and during the pandemic. So he didn't have to do the thing that he wants to do. I'm also trying to look at my keyboard to see how close the B is to the M. And was like, was it a typo? Right, right.

There's an N in between. Yeah, that's not such an easy mistake. Also, she was blaming these numbers on biden's open border policies but that's false because what happened is open border commie lover joe biden like they they apprehended one million people because we don't have an open border yeah that's that's like i don't understand why you don't understand that it's every single every single one of them is always doing this is open border policies are causing all these people to be at the border stuck at the border if the border was open and i'll just be like listen y'all like okay you know when you were taking that gap year in college and you went

to go you know backpack across europe how you were able to take the train from like france to germany and switzerland you're like oh it's so amazing you just hop the train yeah those are open borders that's what that is yeah you understand how that works that's your your college vacation those were you how you talk about how nice that is yeah those are open that border that you enjoy yes that's an that's an open border how you got in that man yes the train did the train that you took yeah it's open borders so yeah i'm just such a good point wouldn't it be cool to be able to go to cabo like just take a train to cabo whenever you know what i'm saying i i like that this exact same news story under trump would be like brave donald trump has apprehended one billion. One billion percent,

Jonathan. One billion percent. So many people have apprehended more than the history of borders. The most apprehensions ever. The greatest. All right, give us another story. Sweatiest president. Netflix. Netflix lost 200,000

subscribers in the first quarter of 2022. It's the first time it,000 subscribers in the first quarter of 2022. It's the first time it's lost subscribers in a quarter in more than a decade. Go woke, go broke. That's what happened, right? I assume. Is that what did it?

The wokeness? We've evolved from go woke, go broke to the woke mind virus. Yes, right. It's evolved. It's evolved, you see. Elon Musk said it's the woke mind virus yes right it's evolved it's evolved you see Elon Musk said it's the woke mind virus which is making Netflix

unwatchable unclear what he's referring to um it's fast this whole thing is fascinating to me partly because so I asked him obviously he's not going to respond to me but I asked him like what show you talking about what like what show on Netflix do you think has like the woke

mind virus that has on Netflix do you think has the woke mind virus that has ruined Netflix for you personally? And I got three different types of answers from people. One was all of them. That's not an answer.

Another was it'd be harder to name the ones that haven't. Also not an answer. Still not an answer. And one was a remake

of a manga called he's expecting about like a world where like men can get pregnant and it's about like a man getting pregnant so like basically the plot of junior 1994 is junior with Danny DeVito yeah

the woke junior so like it's just very silly and like if you press them like but but like junior right like yeah but that's a comedy so is like if you press them like but like the junior exists. And like yeah, but that's a comedy. So is the movie you're citing. Yeah. So like the mind virus I would posit is like this Elon Musk sort of like impulse.

It's the wokeness or it's this, it's this. He always sort of says stuff that sounds right. But like if you press, he has no explanation. That doesn't sound right. Heavy quotes on sounds right. But like he could. It's not a visual medium. I'm sorry. no explanation that doesn't sound right i mean i heavy quotes on sound right he could i just want to point out that in no coverage that i've seen has it been mentioned that a couple months ago netflix raised their price like 10 bucks a month could be that uh could be the fact that you can't share it you can't share accounts no more you can't share accounts no more. You can't share accounts anymore. You also have to pay

for a million fucking streaming services. Could be that. If I want a show, I buy a subscription and then watch it all at once and then cancel it. I've got Paramount Plus and cancelled it three times already.

Just to watch something. It could be the fact that Apple TV and Apple Plus is like, the content is incredible so there's they're putting out great the shows are phenomenal they have severance is amazing yeah severance is incredible yeah and i was gonna say hbo max their app is terrible but the content is incredible so actually the apple app is pretty bad for me on my roku every time i pause it like if i pause midstream and like if i want to watch the rest of the episode later i come back and it started me yeah apple doesn't want you to use they don't want to use exactly i was gonna say yeah i think maybe it's that but i kind of feel like netflix is like the zune like before the ipod where it was like, okay, there was plenty of MP3 players before an iPod,

you know? So, but zoom thought they ruled the world. So I'm like, okay, Netflix, you were just first, you know,

Kings can fall. So yeah. And it's like, it's not me. You go always be the best. And side note, even if you talking about like, you don't like the shows that are in the feed,

you know, that's algorithmic also. So whatever showing up on your, on your Netflix home is reading what you're watching. Maybe you actually like the woke shows and it's recommending more woke shows. Whatever that fucking means. And at this point, the term woke for me, you know, I'm like, first of all, my daddy and his friends used to say it. My Black Panther father, you got to stay woke, brother. You know what I'm saying?

friends used to say it. My Black Panther father, you gotta stay woke, brother. You know what I'm saying? So I'm like, first of all, just like y'all's fear, y'all's new discovery of a 60 year old theory called critical race. You know what I'm saying? So I'm like, you know what I'm saying? Like this brand new thing that's existed since the 50s.

You know, exactly. So I'm like, and it's like, I just, I feel like it's like, it's the new like, you know, well, if Martin Luther King was alive today, I'm like, I'm going to throw a chair at you. You don't know what you're talking about. Like, why do you get to say that? Like, why you get to just take something and then redefine it and give it back to me as a weapon? I'm like, y'all got to stop.

We got to stop. It's sometimes like sometimes among the black community, we'd be like, yo, you just have to stop talking in front of white people. You do. Like, you just can't talk'm like this y'all gotta stop we gotta stop it's sometimes like sometimes i'm on the black community we'd be like yo you just have to stop talking in front of white people you do like you just can't talk you can't share the the word yeah i can't share it yeah i can't talk in front of you yeah the rest of us will fuck it up yeah yeah it's uh i was i was actually gonna i'm glad you i'm glad you brought that up because i was thinking about bringing it up because it is like i think about that every time i see the word used yeah in the way it is now yeah that word fucking meant something to a lot of people and like a real thing that is still a problem uh yes and they just like took it like actually it's just pc stuff like no it's like it was a very specific no you used to say hey you don't know you know if you didn't

vote if you're not aware who your politicians then you don't get to complain so what woke meant was like hey stay awake stay woke know what's going on in your politics know what's going on with your politicians know what's going on in the laws you got to stay woke brother don't fall asleep like know what it is so now that i am aware of what's going on in my politics you telling me now that's a problem, which we really know what the problem actually is. Exactly. I think DeSantis the other day referred to something about wearing masks as being woke. Of course he did. Anything that liberals might vaguely want, anything to the left of Mitt Romney is woke. It's embarrassing and frustrating at the same time.

I hate it so much. I mean, just the complete lack of awareness or context or even care. Right, and no one's ever going to be like... But it's true. It's true about that for a lot of different words. I mean, I think this is a whole topic that is worth unpacking. Just in general, not even just people that are misinformed or using something in bad faith but people just appropriating without understanding or acknowledgement of um the culture

or the roots of something that it came from and you know and killing it killing it like yeah there's like there's appropriating and like making lame you know and then there's yeah appropriating and weaponizing you know and you have to like i'm always like which is more infuriating you know i'm saying i mean it's like yeah right right it was like yeah yeah yeah yeah because there's intent there i think like the the first example you're talking about it's like okay like the natural thing people get wind of something or like. Yeah, it just gets cool. It's like, yeah, that's how culture works a lot of the times.

But as opposed to like, we're going to use this. We're going to fucking make it mean this. And we're going to like have it mean everything. Same thing. Like, yeah, it's a critical race thing. It's like we're going to use this to weaponize. Yeah. I think that we should be proactively aware and observing things

and learning and like celebrating uh if we're gonna appropriate if something's gonna become part of culture you know we should understand where it came from at least at least understand you know it's like i there's there's certain things that i've just like had to accept that like look i don't get to like i don't get to participate in you know i'm i live in boyle heights this is a 100 mexican neighborhood you know i'm saying my wife is first gen latina you know i'm saying and there's jokes between her and my stepdaughter like about being chicano you know and chicana that i'm just like oh that's funny i don't i don't get to participate like and it's like right right it's fine this is and that's fine you know i'm saying no i don't get to participate. And it's like, it's fine. And that's fine.

You know what I'm saying? No. I don't feel left out. No, that's yours. You know what I'm saying? And it's fine that it's yours. And I actually get joy in you enjoying it. You know? Yeah.

It's fine. I totally. That makes sense. Seeing like those moments, I'm sure, are nice to see. Yes. Like, you you know and just the the sacred feminine like i'm a girl dad so let's just say just a girl slay you know what i'm saying and just all this stuff you know i'm saying like between my sister and my like i'm like that's black women stuff i don't i that's theirs like it's fine it's it's again it's going back to the weird male.

That's not an infringement on me that they have a thing. It's fine. And you don't have to take it. No, it's fine. Let them have it. Let them have it. And it's not even mine to allow them. You know what I'm saying? No, of course.

You know what I'm saying? But just in our minds. Yeah, just let in our minds. Yeah, just like let them have it. Like it's. Yeah, not everything has to be everybody's. Unless you're a communist, Tucker Carlson. Maybe he's, you know.

I guess water could be everybody's. Maybe water at the very least. And like air and stuff. You might have, you, Katie and Cody, y'all might have some sort of like nicknames and such that y'all talk to each other about that as somebody who listens you know when you listen to a show you start thinking like they're actually my friends and it's like well this is the first actual conversation we had so i just can't i can't just like jump in and call you the same pet names that y'all call each other and that's just it just seems so obvious to me that like if i got on here and cody was like hey snickerdoodle blah blah blah i can't refer to you katie as snickerdoodle because we just met
