Starting point is 00:00:00 Let me ask you a question. Do you have a best friend? How big would it shock you if somebody told you that your best friend just killed somebody? An Anuloma? Emergency? Someone on the line said they kidnapped my son and they're demanding $500,000. On September 12, 1995, 12-year-old McKay Everett disappeared from his home in Conroe, Texas. It was a crime that shocked the community because the suspect was so unlikely, so unexpected. Former high-ranking police official, he'd run for
Starting point is 00:00:33 sheriff at one point. Law enforcement personnel were pretty much split down the middle over whether or not he actually did this. And to this day, McKay's mother Paulette still feels that justice was never truly served. I've asked myself so many times, what in the world happened? Ransom is available now.

Starting point is 00:02:52 What's going on, Drusky? Well, I wanted to get right into the Time Life books. Because that Gunslinger commercial you made so enticing. I want to see it. I kind of remember it. I remember the time life series. I remember the whole commercial. This is from 1980, which feels a slight bit newer than I remember. I feel like it was more, I would have pegged it like 76, 77. But let's watch it. It maybe, again- Feels like the early 70s to me yeah but you know we're only talking about three years all right let's play the the time life gunslinger now what
Starting point is 00:03:29 I'm saying is is lore right yeah we're talking about lore myth yeah myth folklore yeah okay so you're gonna hear a bunch of recountings of the Old West then we have no idea whether it happened or not and probably didn't. Of course. You know, okay. And then 150 years from now, you're gonna hear people, oh, Trump said inject bleach
Starting point is 00:03:55 and said they're good people on both sides. Remember that border guard that was whipping the Haitians from his horse? Remember that one? That was awesome. And then that Kyle Rittenhouse guy just showed up in Oshkosh to kill black people, you know, the AK-47, like, that's how we're gonna do it.
Starting point is 00:04:12 That's how we're doing this. Yeah. And listen, you have the president of the United States, at the time, Barack Obama, going abroad and telling his international audience that we got problems, big racial problems too, inciting Ferguson, Missouri with the hands up don't shoot, with the gentle giant who strong-arm robbed the liquor store and then attacked
Starting point is 00:04:45 a cop to get his gun from the thing. We have a black congresswoman on the 10th year anniversary of the justified shooting as a DOJ investigated the shooting of Michael Brown commemorating the 10th anniversary and explained that he was gunned down and shot in the back. So you don't think lore can go on? Now you didn't think lore could go on with recording devices and ring doorbells and expert testimony and DOJ investigations. Oh yes, it did. Michael Brown was shot wrestling with a cop in the front. Obama thinks he would, well, Obama doesn't think that, but he's a hustler, he's a race hustler,
Starting point is 00:05:35 and then Dumbo Congress black woman, whatever thinks that, doesn't think, I don't know. It doesn't slow them down, they're moving forward. So lore will continue in the modern era even though there's videotape of everything yeah okay hey i've been obsessing about this when i i like i said i watched the movie napoleon and i think that's what this happened so i started studying it and uh the number one i mean i would say most of our impressions of who Napoleon was were created by the British and the Russians and the Austrians Fucking hated him right the most significant sort of cartoon esque thing that we all believe about Napoleon
Starting point is 00:06:15 The Napoleon complex he was a short man and he had to take it out of the world turns out wasn't even short But it was average for his day. He was average for his day. All right, let's I wasn't even sure it but it was average for his day. All right, let's Let's play that's lore lore But but listen to the modern lore too. Yeah, that's a point. It's always bullish We got to really examine the primary documents and the primary documents are gonna be videos going forward. All right, here we go Videos not enough. I know Somewhere in these Chiricahua Hills I know. to life again as your introductory volume to a fast writing series called The Old West. Hundreds of authentic pictures give you the real story.
Starting point is 00:07:09 For the first time ever, you'll be able to see Geronimo's combat dagger in Colt 45. Picture. You look into the eyes of Sitting Bull, the man who destroyed Custer. Quana Parker, the fierce Comanche whose mother was a captured farm girl, and all the great chiefs. Eyewitness accounts and rare photographs and art bring the Old West to life. You'll meet the gunfighters, men like John Wesley Harden, so mean he once shot a man just for snoring. There it is. Cowboys, blazed in glory by the greatest artists of the Old West.
Starting point is 00:07:43 The pioneers, battling the savage elements and bloodthirsty war parties. The gamblers, the women of the West. They're all here in big handsome books with a look and feel of hand-tooled saddle leather. We'll send you the Great Chiefs for a 10-day examination. If you're not impressed, just return it within 10 days and pay nothing.
Starting point is 00:08:04 How would you do that? How would you return it? If you decide to keep the great chiefs, you pay just $12.95 plus shipping and handling. Then approximately every other month, we'll send you another lively volume from the Old West Library for a 10-day examination. Keep only the volumes you want. You can cancel at any time. Here's how to order. It's still not the commercial which is the the gunslingers, which is its own commercial. The gun fighters were in here, but there's one commercial that's just dedicated to the gunslingers.
Starting point is 00:08:34 Yeah. It's still got the guy. So mean he shot a man for snort. But I remember I haven't watched that. Well, okay. It's lore, but the interesting part of this conversation is that now we're living in modern lore and we're watching footage of Joe Biden being ravaged by Parkinson's and we're calling it a cheap fake. And then we're looking at the video of it, which is interesting, which I find interesting, which is the attempt to have the lore overcome the burden of video. Of the video, yeah. It's exactly what's happening. Yeah, which is a really interesting-
Starting point is 00:09:14 The lore has to be fabricated and brought on quick. Yeah. You've got to use it. And I said this to you yesterday, that there's the hypnotists in the world and the propaganda experts know how this works. But 20% of the people, you can immediately hypnotize. You can make them believers very, very quickly in whatever topic that they're prone towards. COVID, lockdowns, January 6th.
Starting point is 00:09:40 Well, inject bleach is the greatest of the lures because Biden said, Trump said inject it bleach into your arm. These are the same people who become evangelical Christian, you know, they become evangelists very quickly. They're hypnotizable. And then about 10% go, sorry, this is bullshit. And the 10% unfortunately is difficult to hear because they get drowned out by the,
Starting point is 00:10:03 I'm using the word evangelist, I don't mean religious people, I mean evangelizing on a topic that they're now believing in. And about 70% just kind of want to stay out of trouble. And that 70% are the sheep that you worry about. Yes. And they're the only ones that can actually make a difference if you get them to kind of wake up and make noise. Yeah. And that's the hard part.
Starting point is 00:10:25 It's the hard part. Yeah. How you get them... I have some personal lore going on, which I'm amused at. Sounds like you ate something bad. No. No? Personal lore.
Starting point is 00:10:37 I was out of town for a day. And so my daughter and her friend, one friend according to her, stayed at my condo in Malibu. And when I come back from being out of town, the number one thing I wanna see is my TV set. Because I love me some TV. I love my shows. And when I'm gone, it's how I know I'm not addicted to TV because I do not watch for three days in a row
Starting point is 00:11:11 when I'm not on any TV. Cause it's like, oh, it's hotel TV. You know, it's come home after the club, it's 1230 at night, there's nothing. You know, just go to bed, whatever. I get up next day, go eat breakfast, leave. You know, so I know I'm not married to it, but when I come home, I go, where's my TV?
Starting point is 00:11:27 And what's waiting for me in the queue? So I walk in the front door, and I see that the carpet, the rug, I should say, and the coffee table are like catty wampas, like moved like three feet in a skew. It looks like someone's wrestling or something in there on the sofa, like knocking. Moved, it's a big rug, it's got a big coffee table,
Starting point is 00:11:54 and it's sideways, halfway. So I come walk in and I go, what the, what's going on here? And I go, all right, well, listen, I'm just gonna get my trusty remote and catch up on my show. So then I look down and there's no remote. There's no remote.
Starting point is 00:12:19 And then there's always, I've found this quite often when it comes to arguments or debates with women, there's always a second piece, another element that they cling onto to kind of frustrate and confuse the proceedings. You know what I mean? The TV has a remote. It has a remote that's the TV remote. Like it'll turn it on and off. Most TVs come with that remote, but then there's a remote you use the direct program. Yeah. With the S all the stuff. And that's the one you use,
Starting point is 00:13:01 but the TV remote is there somewhere, you know, so the TV remote is there somewhere. Always around. So the TV remote was taken and used upstairs because, it's a long story, but it'll work on any TV because it's the TV remote, whatever. Fine. It's like upstairs, right? Yeah. It's like upstairs, right? So then I come in and I say, where's my TV remote? Where's my TV remote? Where's the direct TV remote?
Starting point is 00:13:33 And then I get the – Buy a TV. They took the remote and they brought it upstairs to work the – and I go, no, that's the TV remote, but I got the direct – where's the direct TV? She took it upstairs to do the, she took another, yes, she took another remote but not the direct TV remote is not here. It's upstairs, go look in her room. Anyone ever talk to women? It's always this weird. I don't think it's just women though, you always complain, people never know what you're
Starting point is 00:14:01 talking about. Alright, everyone does it. It's a weird piece of information and I explain them all the time. I know what you're talking about. That's not what I'm talking about. They don't know what you're talking about. All right, everyone does it. Some weird piece of information, and I explain them all the time. I know what you're talking about. That's not what I'm talking about. They don't know what you're talking about, yeah. They don't know and they don't wanna know. That's the whole thing. And also, I'm the accurate person who uses a remote.
Starting point is 00:14:15 So yes, there is another remote, granted. That's not what I'm talking about. I wanna know where my remote is for this TV set, the direct TV remote. It's upstairs, check her. Go up to the bedroom and you find the remote they were talking about. And then you have to come down for round two.
Starting point is 00:14:32 Is there a remote up there? There's a remote, but it's not the direct TV remote. She didn't take the remote. She took... Yes, there's a remote that was taken. That is not the one I'm speaking of or the one that's missing. Mine's a DirecTV.
Starting point is 00:14:53 But she took the remote to go up, okay, okay. I'm gonna start looking for the remote. So. Do you ever stop right there and go, can we do some deductive reasoning? No, no, no. To come up with our best assessment where it might be? You see a white towel come sailing in
Starting point is 00:15:07 and my guy gives up and I just start looking. So now I'm like, okay, the carpet's moved, the coffee table's moved, somebody was like wrestling in here or something and the remote's behind a pillow or something, you know, on the sofa. All right, good, good thought. That's that kind of reasoning, good.
Starting point is 00:15:27 Yeah, so I start pulling up the pillows and start, and I'm cussing the whole time too, which is. You're annoying. No, the reason I'm cussing is, so much of my life has been affected by so many irresponsible people who just fucked my shit up. Do you know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:15:47 Like, I just came home. I just want to sit down on the sofa and watch TV. I didn't have to be this way, you know what I mean? And there is a world where you can borrow the car, use the remote or do it, just put it back. Just put it back. Just put it back. Just put it back. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:16:09 I will lease you a $100,000 Tesla. Just keep the extra keys by the front door in case I have to move your car when you're out of town. That's all. That's it. That's all. No, fuck off. Not gonna happen.
Starting point is 00:16:22 And I realized how many people have just fucked my shit up over the years, and so now I'm back from out of town, except for all the pillows are off the sofa, and I'm down on the ground with my flashlight looking underneath the sofa, and I'm like, why, why? So, I cannot, no remote, nothing's found. It's still no remote. No remote. No, nothing's found.
Starting point is 00:16:46 But on the coffee table is the back hatch of the remote, the battery hatch. Okay, there's some information. Of a remote. Oh. And I'm trying to look, looking at it, and I'm going, is this from a remote or the remote I'm looking for? Then why is it undone? Why is it sitting here?
Starting point is 00:17:02 Like, did somebody steal the batteries from my remote to put into their remote, which is a thing, except for then where's my remote? My remote should be sitting next to it with no batteries, with the hatch off. So the hatch for the remote, I'm calling it the hatch, the slide cover, battery cover, just sitting on the coffee table.
Starting point is 00:17:24 There's no remote. The rug is cattywampus with the coffee table. And now I'm crawling underneath the sofa at 10 o'clock at night with the flashlight. And so I say to my daughter, okay, what gives? What's happening? Is she downstairs the whole time watching you do this?
Starting point is 00:17:43 No, she's upstairs watching you. She goes, nothing. Just watching TV with my friend. What went on here? Yeah. I don't know. I'm just watching TV with my girlfriend. Carpets moved.
Starting point is 00:17:59 Did you know where the remote is? No. Did you touch the remote? Did you touch the remote? Did you move the remote? I got, sorry, now we gotta get into this part. Oh, I took the one remote. Okay, not that remote. There's another remote.
Starting point is 00:18:14 She said she brought the remote. It's not that remote. There's a separate remote that is direct TV that is gone, but that looks like the hatch is here, but that could be the hatch is here but that could be from something else. I really didn't study the hatch on its own. Yeah, yeah. Didn't touch it. Don't know what you're talking about.
Starting point is 00:18:38 Okay, so I just left here Saturday afternoon. Okay, I leave the remote on the coffee table. That's what I do. But there is rare occasion, rare occasion, when I find myself, I'm not gonna say the phone rings or something, but I'm holding them up and I get up. And I know someone banging on the door, the phone or something, I have to gonna say the phone rings or something, but I'm holding them and I get up. And I go, oh, someone banged on the door, the phone or something. I have to go to the bathroom or something. And lo and behold, I set it down on the bathroom shelf and didn't see it or something.
Starting point is 00:19:15 Then I get back and I go, where did I put the, oh yeah, and I get up and I go, oh, I set it down on the kitchen island. I was walking in there to get a snack or something, something. It's rare, but it's possible. So now I got the information, no remote was touched, don't know what you're talking about. So I go, maybe when I was leaving, I was sitting here watching TV, and I went upstairs to get my duffel bag and I kept the remote in my hand and I just set it on my kitchen. I set it on the bureau in the bedroom or something and I got the bag and I left for Palm Springs.
Starting point is 00:19:53 So let me go search. So now, now's my favorite part of life. This is my favorite part. I'm walking around the condo lifting pillow. Maybe set it on the chair and it's lit under the pillow. There's some papers on this foot rest. I'm gonna shuffle through those. Let me pat, there's papers on the coffee table. Let me look under some of this stuff.
Starting point is 00:20:14 All right, well, I'll head up to the bedroom. Maybe I set it down on the chest of drawers up there when I was packing or something. Searched a house, nothing. Wow. So, go to, at some point I'm out of, I don't know. Out of ideas. I'm pretty sure I was sitting here Saturday at about noon watching me some TV and then
Starting point is 00:20:43 it's time to leave and then I shut the TV with the remote, and I set it on the coffee table, and I left. But I do live in a world where maids come in and take the remotes and put them away, like in the drawer and stuff. I wanna say to maids, the TV remote's allowed to sit on the coffee table in front of the TV. It doesn't have to be tucked away in a drawer,
Starting point is 00:21:03 in the corner. All I'm gonna do is look for it. I know you look at that as like putting it away. You know what I mean? But it's a remote, it never goes away. But okay. Following day, now I'm stuck on the sofa. I'm on the sofa.
Starting point is 00:21:23 I'm stuck on the sofa because the sofa was moved. Things were moved. I feel, it looks to me, like there was rough housing or something going on. I started thinking, could a dog have run through there or something and bit it or what the hell No idea where something have no something to happen I like this I set the remote on the coffee table left for one day and I came home and it was and everything was fucked up in the front right, right, so
Starting point is 00:21:57 Okay, but I've spoken to my daughter. She has no idea what I'm talking about and the fact that the carpets move three feet doesn't Not an issue nothing so No idea what I'm talking about. And the fact that the carpets moved three feet doesn't, didn't happen. Nothing. So, then I, the next day, now it's time to pull the 14 foot sectional away from the wall and start climbing around behind it. And lo and behold, there's a remote behind the sofa against the wall with the hatch missing.
Starting point is 00:22:26 And batteries in it? One battery out on the floor. Oh, what? As if somebody threw it at somebody or something, right? And then I take it out and I clean off. And I think to myself, why does everyone have to fuck my shit up this way? Like, why, what did I do? shit up this way? Like, why?
Starting point is 00:22:45 What did I do? All I do is pay for everything. Why? Why do you get punished? And then I start explaining this has been my adult married life. This is it. Just getting fucked up by people I live with over nothing. I pay for everything, I put everything in the same spot.
Starting point is 00:23:02 That's all. I have no idea. Then I say to my daughter, What happened? What happened? And she goes, I don't know. I never touched a remote. You didn't touch it, fine. Who did?
Starting point is 00:23:18 I don't, the point is, You still not know? No, well, first off, I know everything. Yes. I know everything, but if you're not gonna ever come clean, then fine, just keep lying. But I know. Did you tell her you know she's lying? I just go, look.
Starting point is 00:23:37 Did you say that? The carpet's gone. The carpet's gone, there's a remote behind the sofa missing the hat. So something. Okay, but you say nothing Okay, at least make something I don't listen that's just It's fine. Just lie. You know what I mean? But what I'm saying is it did you get modern lore is what what I'm saying? Did you give her the I now I think of you differently because you're a liar
Starting point is 00:24:02 I'll probably give her a speech about that at some point. But yes, here we are, modern lore. Didn't touch the remote, but it's behind the sofa missing the hat. Whatever. I now realize that everyone just sort of expediency, just say whatever whenever in the face of whatever. It just doesn't't know it even cares
Starting point is 00:24:26 You know that even you're right. And also People have no clue of who I am and what I think you're saying insane things to me and I'm just sitting here Look Here's the thing You can say that you did the butterfly stroke to Cuba last week and all know you're lying. Now, you may not know that I know you're lying, and I may not say I know you're lying,
Starting point is 00:24:59 but I know you're lying, and so I will know this about you. Right, that's how it works. I don't, you know, I get kids, kids are kids. I don't know why adults play fast and loose with that. Like where I just walk away and go, oh, okay, so you're a liar. You know what's interesting is you and I used to talk about how people would have honor and shake hands and do business. My word is my bond. Yeah, we've gone so... We're gone. We don't even talk about that anymore. is my bond. Yeah, we've gone so.
Starting point is 00:25:25 We're gone. We don't even talk about that anymore. Dignity. Yeah, character and dignity. We used to talk about that shit. Gone. We'd go, come on, people don't seem to have that anymore. Now it's like, whoa.
Starting point is 00:25:32 Not at all. Now it's like fast and loose, whatever. Whatever you can get away with. Whatever, whenever, all the time. Yeah. Yeah, it's interesting. It's a, I don't, you know, I don't know why people choose to go through life that way, but

Starting point is 00:27:00 on the side of LAPD squad cars. on the side of LAPD squad cars. And you know how we have protect and serve here on LAPD cars. Every city's got their own bullshit on the side of the cop car. I was explaining this to Dr. Drew the other day, and I don't know if it was ringing a memory for you. Oh, when I was talking about CPR?
Starting point is 00:27:28 Yeah. Remember we were talking about that? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I know you know what we're talking about, and I felt like you were sort of half understood what I was saying. I mean, you understood. Oh no, I knew exactly what you were saying,
Starting point is 00:27:39 but you kept saying why, and I was like. Well, you have to look at it because they made the letters red. It stands out as CPR. Well, you have to look at it because they made the letters read. It stands out as CPR. I think somebody, if you were asking why, why, why, why, and I said somebody had to make that decision, and I bet you somebody thought that was a clever decision. I bet you.
Starting point is 00:28:00 Cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Correct. Is what CPR stands for. Correct. In the mind of people. Oh yeah, everybody. So. Every English speaking person. You picked three words that had the first letter and then you made them red
Starting point is 00:28:18 and you put them on the side of cop cars. So it makes me think you're an ambulance. Or what CPR have to do with policing? Well, they had to convince themselves of something. Well, get the insignia. I mean, this shouldn't take more than 10 seconds. It's got to be on this. What city was it in again?
Starting point is 00:28:36 I forget. What do you mean what city was it in? You forget. Oh, I'm sorry. It was LA. Okay. This is my fault for trying to talk. Okay, for some reason you think I was asking for the LAPD car.
Starting point is 00:28:52 No, but in New York, did I say New York? Not that I heard. I was talking to you. You told me yesterday where it was and I don't remember what you told me. Well, what do you mean? You told me yesterday where it was and I don't remember what you told me. Well, what do you mean? You told me yesterday where you saw the CPR. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:08 And you had trouble remembering what the three words were, but you remember the CPR was like community protection, something, and reliance, whatever. But I didn't register and stay with where you saw that. Really? You were saying your travels, yeah. That's really weird. Yeah. Because I told you I was in Manhattan, I was walking around through Manhattan, you know, I was staying in Manhattan, you know, I was saying your place in my Manhattan, I wasn't traveling.
Starting point is 00:29:34 You know why it didn't stay with me? Because that doesn't sound like NYPD, it sounds weird. It's like, it's too odd for me to stay with. Sounds like Brooklyn, maybe. Well, no, I was sure you were in Long Island when you saw that? I thought I would've said if I'd heard it. No, I was, okay, now I'm taking crazy pills. I stayed at your place in Manhattan. And I was saying, I was walking around, I was looking, there's a cop, there's a NYPD cop car, or, what I'm saying is, I was walking through Manhattan,
Starting point is 00:30:00 and I stayed at your place. So I didn't stay any other place but your place. So I thought when I said walking around your place, you knew what I was talking about. And I said there was a cop car on every corner and this is what it said. Interesting. So it doesn't, but didn't register with you then, right?
Starting point is 00:30:17 Well, you know what's interesting? Now that I see it, I've seen it. That exact thing happened to me just now. Cause you said LAPD and then right now that you said NYPD, I've seen it. That exact thing happened to me just now. Because you said LAPD, and then right now that you said NYPD, I remember that right away. Yeah, I've definitely seen that, but I didn't make note of it. They've had it for years.
Starting point is 00:30:33 Yeah. Right, now we gotta check the tape and see if I said NYPD. I didn't say NYPD, New York, or whatever. I, Drew, this is on you, because you don't even know what city I saw. Of course I was talking about New York. Well, I remember you talking about traveling,
Starting point is 00:30:45 and I was sort of like, oh, okay. No, no, I wasn't talking about traveling. I said, I'm staying at your place, and I'm walking through the city. No, I definitely said it. I have no problem believing you said it. It didn't stay with me for some reason. And then why didn't this make sense?
Starting point is 00:31:00 So, okay, well now I'm frustrated, but let's get back to it. It's courtesy, professionalism, okay, well now I'm frustrated, but let's get back to it. It's courtesy professionalism, respect, except for you've taken the lead letter, you made it bold and twice the size of all the other letters and you made it red instead of blue. So when you look at the side of an NYPD car, it just says CPR, which stands for something else.
Starting point is 00:31:24 So why did you do this? Yeah. And it's been that way. I can now that I'm seeing it, I feel like I've been seeing that for a long time. I wish you could have summoned that thought yesterday when I was getting into vivid detail about this. It's a visual memory. I can't explain it except that I see it.
Starting point is 00:31:41 It's like having a smell or something. You're like, oh, yeah, I remember that now so any bad what are they doing hey whoever made the decision to do it it's been carried forward for quite a while for no good reason I don't know what they're doing the you'd have to check the record they made the letters red and bold yeah so that it would read cpr yeah so what do they want us to think? That they're there to resuscitate the community. Who knows what they convinced themselves of? It makes no sense at all that they did it. But New York is, you know, a pretty advanced civilization with lots of lawyers and like educated people and stuff. Like, did nobody just raise their hand and go, CPR means, look, if we did security,
Starting point is 00:32:30 transitions, and service, I'd go, oh, and professionalism, I'd go, that's STP. Yeah, or how about STI? Why don't they just put that in there? Right, like STP's a, it's a motor oil. But well, we're gonna make it bold. I go, okay, even worse. You don't wanna say that.
Starting point is 00:32:50 How long has this been going on, is my question. It's also weird, so I walked through the city and was driven insane by this. And you don't notice it. I know. That's a gift you have, Drew. You know who else has that gift? My dog.
Starting point is 00:33:07 Blissfully unaware of all. I'm walking through the city, just going, what the fuck are they doing with CPR? Why do they want me to say CPR? Why is it red? So let's think about it. So probably the courtesy, professionalism, respect is probably some sort of aphorism
Starting point is 00:33:22 they've had for a long time. No, no, no, no. You think they invented it for the CPR? No, look, the respect is new. Respect was not a thing. Cops used to have like enforce, you know what I mean? Law enforcement, you know what I mean? They didn't talk about community and respect and courtesy
Starting point is 00:33:45 and that kind of stuff. I mean, it was around. I mean, it was around, but the word respect is newer. Because we didn't, that's a kind of, it wasn't really the cops job. It wasn't really their job to respect. It was like, go get the bad guys.
Starting point is 00:34:03 What year did CPR hit 1997 all right it's new ish but not you know I mean the force has been around for a hundred years before that but to be put it's new it's 25 quarter century what is and what was before it I guess you know club the black guy That's what they used to be all right Racism violence. Yes, regard CPR was even bigger when they launched this in 97. Yeah. Yeah Okay, well I can't enjoy the city Talk about Eugene, Oregon or something.
Starting point is 00:34:48 Well, it seemed weird for New York, that's for sure. This drove me insane. And I would have screamed. That's why I was there for three days. I said, this drove me nuts. But I don't think anyone else cares. Obviously I don't and I've seen it. And by the way, I would not have noticed the,
Starting point is 00:35:10 I have a actually vivid memory of a New Year's Eve walking by a couple of the cars and seeing the words on the side and sort of noting words on the side, but the red, no. I'm colorblind, to be fair. All right. All right, Eugene Oregon, McDonald Theater, that's tonight doing Stand Up There, and Snoqualamy

They didn't have any protect and serve. They didn't have a motto. Not on the car anyway. They must have had some shit they had on their charter somewhere. Anyway, keep going, Drew. That's it.
