The Adam and Dr. Drew Show - #2017 - Who the Hell Cares about Torque?

Episode Date: July 2, 2025

On this episode of The Adam and Dr. Drew Show, Adam and Dr. Drew try to pinpoint the moment society began its slow descent into chaos. They dive into the cultural obsession with “work-life balance” and call out modern men who think more like chicks than dudes. The two also react to a recent Gavin Newsom tweet and discuss the absurdity of today’s car commercials—including a Volkswagen ad featuring two men caring for a sheep like it’s a dog, and another with a man writing a letter in his car. What happened to selling horsepower and performance? Their takeaway: this generation no longer sweats the details—and it shows.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Yeah, get it on. Got the... Dr. Drew...

What's going on, Drewsky? You know, I'm feeling sort of weirdly defeated by the world today. I don't know how else to describe it. And I don't want anybody having, I'm not looking for sympathy from anybody, it's just sort of a weird feeling. And I think it's because I was listening to French people talk about their problems, and I thought, oh, it's the same shit. Same everywhere.

It's the same thing. And the solutions are the same. And no one's gonna do it. Except maybe, I mean, Trump is sort of that, but it kind of feels like there needs to be a cultural shift where we just go, hey, let's just get back down to business. We need order. Let's figure out how we do that, and let's kind of go get back down to business. We need order. Let's figure out how we do that.

And let's kind of go on with living our lives. But I feel like there's a whole world, maybe it's also listening to people talk about that New York mayoral candidate and some of the stuff he's saying. It's just so far from anything that's, of course on paper it looks good, but so does throuples and so does open relationships. A lot of things are okay on paper. Humans don't work that way. And I just, I'm so frustrated with it. Yeah, I agree. It's disappointing that this far into humanity,

we've sort of thrown out what we've known. the pointing that this far into humanity, we've sort of thrown out what we've known. It kind of reminds me, and it's a story that I've heard, it's hypocrphal maybe or something, or apocryphal or whatever the fuck it is. Yeah, yeah, you said it right. Hypocryphal, the point is apocryphal. Whether it's true or not this it I'll paraphrase but like the Romans had the recipe to concrete, you know And then it got lost for 2,000 years and then everyone's fucking making aqueducts by piling rocks onto each other and shit

like that for 2,000 years and then you know in 1891 somebody refound concrete and boom, skyscrapers and dams and everything else. You know what I'm saying? Yes, I know what you're saying. I hope it doesn't take 2,000 years to figure out how to do it. We knew about diet and exercise. We knew about family.

We knew about discipline. We knew about a man's role and a woman's role and hard work and all that, you know, the golden rule and stoicism and stuff. We knew it all. And then we chucked it all and in place. Now we have chaos and drug abuse and obesity and graffiti. Yeah. And street takeovers. And then we'll get back. You know, it's like I was listening to Gavin Newsom, and Andrew, you can look up the whole cement, I mean cement or concrete, whatever that thing was. When was it rediscovered? I want it to be 1891 so badly, so that'd be amazing.

Well, I was scrambling through my brain. Now listen to me, everyone. There's a thing where it's like, well, when did people have TVs? And then someone will go, the first one was invented in 1902. And you go, yeah, but that's. When did people have TVs?

Right, so you think about, you think about the transcontinental railroad and you go, I don't know, I don't feel like they're pouring a lot of concrete in that 1860 something, whatever. But then you go, but by 1902 we had it, like sidewalks and stuff. Bridges. And bridges. So I'm thinking 1890 something, even though it may have been around a little bit before that, but I feel like it was starting to get used

by the turn of that century. But let me. I have a feeling if you looked at the sort of St. Louis International Expo, you might see something about concrete. You know what I mean? That kind of thing. Yeah, that and an elevator.

All right, so listen to me. elevator. All right, so listen to me. This thing that I keep bringing up to you, Drew, this forward-backward, forward-backward thing that we can't seem to fucking wrap our mind around, it's mainly dumb, idealistic people, and a lot of chick think comes like ushering in to you know the sort of you know my mom wanted nature to raise our lawn and nature to raise our kids and stuff like that. It was first off a lot of it a lot of it is just narcissism like you don't fucking feel like mowing the lawn bitch you don't feel like getting up and making eggs. You don't wanna do any of this shit. So you just sort of take, but you. You create an ideology. Yes, nobody goes, I'm just gonna find a mirror

and admit to myself that I'm fucking lazy and I'm unskilled. And I'm not really motivated to deal with other people or help them or take care of them. So most of it is just that. Sort of weak-willed, kind of pathetic people who don't want to announce who they are or what they are. So they create some sort of ideology around

what it is they wanna do, you know? And then you get into some sort of, you know, it's like, you have to have the work-life balance. All right, lazy person who's unskilled and unmotivated, who likes a lot of fucking edibles. Okay, you, who likes to masturbate and look at your computer. Okay, yeah, okay.

What are we calling it again? Oh, we're not calling it you masturbating and looking at your computer and eating edibles. What are we calling it? Oh, it's a work-life balance. Oh, I get it. Oh, I get it. I get it because you fucking don't wanna get dressed.

And you're unskilled. You don't have, you don't possess a skill. Which is, that's the real thing. Chick think and no skills means, collision course. But hold on, hold on. Late 18th century, which is 17-something, right? Yeah.

Developed hydraulic lime further advanced. I know, but hydraulic lime, I rediscovered. I need concrete in use. That's the thing, because it'll always. It'll give you some antecedent. Well, it started with, okay, got that. When was concrete around? Well, you'll go, you know, it's like if I came down from another planet and I turned on the Super Bowl and I went, when did the African Americans populate the NFL? And

someone goes, 1959. You know, it's like, it's not. That was one guy on one team who got cut. You know what I mean? That's not the answer. We're looking for, well, by the early 80s, teams were majority black, or some version of that. That's what we're looking for here. All right, so we'll find that. Portland cement, 19, yeah, it's gonna be Portland cement. Portland cement.

18, that's what they call they call 1824 was the patent Mm-hmm, but now it's still gonna take years to be in wide. Yeah, you sit. Yes, you know, and I mean How do you make it industrially available? Yeah all right Joseph Aspyn, yeah, but I want to know when it's again This is the way the internet works. They tell you when it was patented or it was first used at the county, at the world fair, but I want to know when it came into use. I'm going to go late 18, whatever.

Well, you're right about not being part of it. It was not part of the railroad. And it would have been. I don't think it was. It wasn't. I just read a book about it. Oh, you did? Yeah. And actually a friend of mine went up. Thanks for reading me right. I know. Yeah, I mean I'm... We have Crystal Brain up to read. Well I'm not a... Okay, here's where I go. You ready? Yeah. I'm not a historian. What? And I'm not a structural engineer, although I really could be. But I'm kind of going, But I'm kind of going,

what was the biggest construction project of the day? You know what I mean? I mean, we've built 700 feet of railroad between Modesto and Bakersfield, and we've already poured a million yards of concrete. You know what I mean? We haven't even laid any track. So it's like, the biggest project of its era is not gonna be built without concrete if we have concrete.

Because it can fuck a lot easier to do concrete. Right, so if it wasn't used for that, it wasn't really being used. Friend of mine who also wrote the same book also went up to look at the caves that they originally blew, the tunnels, that the Chinese, it was all the Chinese workers from the Pacific side, that union side.

Interesting. Yeah, that did all that work. First cement factory, Portland cement, in the US 1875. I'm going with my 1891 thing about being into use. All right, thank you. Why Portland cement? It's called Portland cement.

And Portland cement gets mixed with sand and aggregate, and that becomes concrete. Because Portland cement is like mortar, and then concrete has aggregate and sand in it. I wonder, did they use it in the Brooklyn Bridge? And maybe is that where it got going? You know what I mean? I think the Brooklyn Bridge was before this. Or right there? Oh, you're right. It's 70s though, I think.

It could have been. I don't think, all right, anyway. Maybe. All right, now, here's what we're talking about. You ready? Ready. All right, so let's see. Portland Cement Factory, yes. Early 20th century American made Portland cement

displaced all other cement. Brooklyn Bridge completed in 1883. Yeah, could have, yeah. All right, so you ready? You ready. All right, here's what I'm talking about. All right. You can look at California

and you can kind of look at Los Angeles as sort of like a microcosm, like what we're talking about, you know. So we have this booming film industry here and it's going on and there's lots of jobs and lots of revenue and lots of business and half the people in this town are employed in that one way or the other.

I mean, some are driving trucks, some are catering. Yeah, okay. And then so what happens? Well, they get greedy. They get greedy and they start taxing the government, the state. They want more money. It seems to me they're making a lot of money already off of these people, but they want more. So they're always looking for ways to get more money off production. Sorry, if you're, sorry, if you're productive, they got a laser focus on you and where to

get that money. If you're not, they don't care. The insanity to me is, why not help them be more productive, make more money? Then you get more money, and this thing keeps going. This way, you're trading. Well, that was floated to Barack Obama. It told him, when you lower the corporate taxes, you bring in more tax money, and you make more money, even if you lower it, but

you end up making more because you do greater volume. And he said, fine, but I don't like the optics of that. So he chose to raise them because he likes the optics of that. So why not make more? I don't know. They don't seem to be able to... There's got to be a million ways they can get involved with the film industry and partner with or something or support and make more money without killing it. But they've killed it. Well, no, they, you make more money.

You know, you wanna make money selling tacos. Sell more tacos. Don't charge $100 a taco. You're not gonna sell any tacos. Well, okay, let me finish, Goodball. That's what they did yeah they did and they got greedy and then they drove them out okay and then at some point somebody looked around and said there's no more business here and then they went oh we want that we like that money though and they went well so what it went to Prague and it went to

Atlanta and New Mexico and they went oh well let so it went to Prague and it went to Atlanta and New Mexico. And they went, oh, well, let's let's pretend like we want them back now by lowering things and offering incentives and see if we can get them back. We're not going to tell them we try to gouge them or anything in the past. We're just going to go, come on back. Here's some incentives. And now now we're in the process of trying to undo what we undid. Okay, let me finish. Now Gavin Newsom today is making a speech about lowering regulation and cutting

red tape and streamlining so we can build more housing. We need inexpensive housing. There's a, I like the tweet, I think, Andrew, but it's out there. He wants to streamline things, get rid of all the bureaucracy and cut the red tape and streamline things so we can get some affordable housing going. And that's what he's pledging to do after he made it impossible to build over the last 20 years, after him and his ilk ruined the business.

The state. Right. Let's call this Project Doge. Let's call this new Project Doge. What is the difference between cutting all the red tape that you put into place or making it easier for the film industry? You're just undoing what you undid, you fucking retards.

Now, can't you understand that? No. Oh, here's the, is this a tweet? Yeah, they always act, they's the... Is this a tweet? Yeah, they always act like this is a new idea. You just... You put up... Here's the deal.

You put up a bunch of speed bumps that made things too difficult for people to build inexpensive housing. Yeah. And now you have to tear down the speed bumps you previously put up. That was you. That's not my idea. That's not a Republican idea. Speaking of the speed bumps. And you'll do the same with film. Speaking of the speed bumps, there are so much problems with the infrastructure. And

by the way, a new 65% increase in gas tax today going in. Yeah. And so that's not going to allow it to come back. People are going to go, fuck, I don't want to live here. I'm in Mexico. That's much better. It's good. Live in Mexico?

New Mexico. Oh, sorry. I couldn't hear the new part of New Mexico. All right. I don't know if we have a clip. Let me play the clip. The most consequential housing reform that we've seen in modern history. There was a little volume issue in the studio here.

Not sure why. We should get to turn the volume. Here we go. I can't, I just can't. It's consequential. It's too much. It's a big deal, but there's these cutting red tape. The days of affordable housing and infrastructure

in California being blocked by endless delays are finally over. Who started them? What do you mean? Why are they blocked by endless delays? Who's been residing over for the last six years? Let's see, let me read. I'd like to read. And by the way, the Coastal Commission's not going away,

so not much is gonna change. I just signed a historic package of laws, more laws, laws to get rid of laws that they put in place that simplifies building, cuts time, sorry, cuts timelines, and will help make more affordable, more affordable to live in the greatest state in the world. Okay, so basically just going, I just signed a thing that unfucked a bunch of shit

I fucked over the last 20 years. Me and my party. We'll call it the unfuck it bill. I mean, it's called the unfuck it bill. Right, and we'll do the same, we'll try to do the same with everything that we fucked up. We'll try to unfuck it. But they fucked it so much, I don't trust them to unfuck it.

You know what I mean? It's not gonna work, because they don't know how to do that. They don't. Or do they? I don't know, we'll see. No, they don't know what they're doing. Or do they? I don't know. We'll see. They don't know what they're doing. They just look around. It's basically... Putting the finger in the air going,

mmm. What they do is they pass a bunch of shit, crime gets out of control, then they get up and they go, the CVS pharmacy and the Costco pharmacy, they all left Oakland. And then they get mad at the people who left. They're racist.

And, or yeah, whatever, underserved communities or whatever. They get angry at the businesses that flee. And then at some point they go, maybe we should undo what we did. We'll just try to unfuck we fucked and then we'll try to get some pharmacies to come back. It's a never ending cycle of their implementation

of their bad ideas that then cause cause what they don't really realize, and I used to yell at you about this all the time. Tell me. Not that you disagreed. I would always tell them, you do understand that business is smarter than you are. Oh, right. You go, I'm just gonna raise the corporate,

they're leaving. They're figuring out a way. They're gonna take their hub and put it in Nevada and then ship from Nevada back to California to avoid your, they're gonna fuck, they're smarter than you are. That's why they've started a business. You guys are fucking federal employees. You don't know anything.

I wanna drill in that a little bit further. You would actually say businesses don't care. And they don't, well, they don't care and they're smarter than you are. Their job is to make job. They'll be absolutely smart about making money. That's what their job is. They have responsibility to do that. Yeah. So they'll figure it out. So they'll leave and they'll relocate. And they've got some weird idealistic thing that sort of graphs on some good vibes. Hey, has that changed? I see less of those commercials now.

Less of the good vibe commercials. No, the companies are figuring out that your weird sort of good vibe shit, kind of the Dylan Mulvaney Budweiser thing, thing kind of figured out is not what we want to do. Subaru's still got a lot of dogs driving cars and gays going to the mountains and stuff like that. They got two gay dudes adopting a sheep. You ever see that one? I see that.

Oh, it's a great VW ad. It's a VW ad where it's a great VW ad. It's a VW ad where it's literally, it is perfect. It's a white gay man, a black gay man. They adopt a sheep. Weird. Yeah. I've never seen it. Yeah, and there's like a Mamas and Papas song

playing in the background. Oh, it's great, it's about three years. It's at two or three years old. All right, listen, let's take a break. It's in my computer somewhere, Andrew, but we don't tend to label things here normally. So there's difficulty, which is always an issue. All right, we'll take a quick break.

We'll be right back after this. This show is sponsored by BetterHelp, and of course workplace stress is a source of significant emotional discomfort, and BetterHelp can support that. It's now one of the top causes of declining mental health. Sixty-one percent of the global workforce experiencing higher than normal levels of stress. And when I say Better help can help with that, it's not causing it, help mitigate it.

Of course, a holiday is great, but that is not a long-term solution. Don't forget, therapy can help you navigate whatever challenges you experience during the workday or any day might bring. And look, this is now all online. Why not? Zoom works.

This ad? Yeah, it's 4VW. That much I know. I was looking at what happened to Jaguar after they leaned into this and they sold like three cars last six months or something. Somebody keeps tweeting me that their sales are down like 96 and a half percent or something.

Jaguar? Yes. But like really, like whoa, like what happened? Maybe the car is no good. You gotta describe the commercial. You can't just say, check. The commercial was this difficult to understand sort of, I don't know how to describe it, artistic, I guess you would say, if you're being kind, very colorful group of not gendered individuals, non-ethnic, you couldn't, can't identify

the danger or the ethnicity of three quarters of the people in the ad and they're just sort of standing in the wind blowing with their, as I remember it, I don't remember the car even being in the commercial. No. Just something about Jaguar's, you know, cutting edge. Yeah, it's the opposite. The Jaguar insignia, the hood ornament's called the Leaper. And it's a Jaguar pouncing, you know what I mean? And it's the opposite of that. It's opposite of everything they've ever done.

But the worst is like it doesn't say anything about the automobile. It's like what? Well, listen, okay, we went from power train warranty, rust proofing warranty, four wheel disc brakes, we went to warranties, gas mileage, sticker price, and so on and so forth, to kind of good vibes, coupled, not really saying much about the car or the mileage, but we see to no car. That's just androgynous he, she standing around.

Yeah, for the Jaguar. Yeah, yeah, that's where this thing is. Yeah, gone to actually no car. It's swung all the way to no car. Yeah, that's the part that I found most disturbing. We got the sheep commercial. Because I'm prepared that I'm not an artistic person and I can't appreciate this. I get it. But no car. Okay. Sheep and the sheep dog. Oh, I've never seen this. It's a gay couple, I guess, who...

It's supposed to be funny, I think. No one ever raises their hand when someone goes, look, I'm from Coffert, Coffert and Carfield. All right, here's my pitch, Madsen Avenue, guys. Biracial gay couple adapts a sheep. And I'm like, I'd be like, we're not selling butt blood. You understand? We're selling fucking cars, German cars, you fucking retard. Like, nobody raises their hand and goes, we're not selling butt plugs. You understand? We're selling fucking cars, German cars,

you fucking retard. Like nobody raises their hand and goes, we're not selling cock rings and butt plugs. We're selling a German made SUV. Yes. That's what we're advertising here. Not butt plugs, not strap-ons. Nobody wanted to raise their hand? I assume that was a gay couple.

Sure, good friends, otherwise. Andrew, you know that black guy you live with? Are you guys having sex or is it just kind of a hang? We just go pick up sheep sometimes. Well, and they have their own house. You go cruise for sheep? That literally, and they have their own house. You go cruise for sheep? That literally looks like the father knows best house. It might even be.

What? I think it is that house. What color bandana do you have to hang out of your rear pocket when you're cruising for sheep? Is it the white one? I don't know. Do you know, Drew, which color bandana? I wish I did.

I'm sorry. Oh, a wool bandana, yeah. That's good. I wanna watch it again, because Drew missed the sheep commercial. Dude, I'm looking at the father, oh my God, father knows best house. It's not the father.

You look at it, you fucking look at that. If it's not the very house, it's exactly that architecture. It's interesting that the home is very provincial, right? It's very muted in 1960s. No, it's specific. It is specific. Look, it's exactly the house. Oh, it's not the same fucking...

Look! Oh! Fucking A, it's the same same house they just took out the posts true this may be your finest moment i'm so proud this may be your finest so proud don't well wait a minute it's if it's not exactly it is so close it says something oh it's not exactly, it is so close, it says something. Oh, it's interesting. Cause see, I didn't know that show well enough to react the way.

Look, it even has the A-frame over the- Yeah, I mean, there were many homes built in the 40s that blah, blah, blah. Why would they choose that place? Well, I- You know why? Cause that's on the lot of Universal. What they're doing is these two,

this interracial gay couple that goes out and picks up sheep and brings them back home and does God knows what to them would be living in essentially an opium den. There would just be dudes with ballgags and gimps like walking and you know, sex rattan chairs swinging from the ceiling and stuff like that. All right, play me the commercial one more time

then we'll get, so I think what they tried to do is normalize the home. Not just normalize, it's like we're taking over this iconic thing with our messages. All right, so gay couple goes out for a ride. Love the dog. Now the dog doesn't get in the car. Now the sheep gets in. Right? Is that a little odd to somebody? What happened to the dog? The sheep? Hold on. Hold on. You think it's their dog? I'm just saying that they have a leash. They have a leash in the house. They do have a leash. The sheep replaces dog. That's the whole thing. Yeah, you're right. The

leashes in the house. What do you want to bet? This is the beach they filmed courtship with his father on. They filmed it on Normandy Beach actually. Just to the right there the graves of the fallen soldiers who liberated Europe. What is the pitch like for the guy? You know what I mean? Like, hey, I'm your agent. Yeah, we're looking for homos who aren't really, who don't present as that gay, but what's the story?

Is it a sitcom? No, you marry a black guy and adopt a sheep. It's an SU, it's a Volkswagen commercial. Can you be like, what the fuck? All right, sorry, we gotta go back 20 seconds. Let's see, let's see. Because it hangs them up to see someone like you. But you gotta make your life. life gets bigger when you break from the herd the Volkswagen Tiguan

so the dog is the man see i guess i guess and you break from the herd and you give a tea whatever they call I know that I can pronounce their car Teagan T-guan I cheap banger Listen everybody get your fucking shit together would you this fucking abnormal crazy bullshit? It's just not gonna fly It's not it's not the answer to any salute. It's not the answer to anything. The problem is, it's not about the car. That's the problem. I wanna hear about the car, period.

You can have a gay guy buy a car, it's great. But I wanna hear about the car. I don't wanna hear about sheep replacing dogs or the man. I don't know. Well, okay, so listen to me. The very real problem is young people, I realize young people don't know anything. They don't know what stuff is.

They don't know what stuff is. You know, like if I tell a young guy. Yeah, I feel like I'm a time traveler. Like I'm some You know, like if I tell a young guy. I feel like I'm a time traveler. Like I'm some sort of alien. If I tell a young guy, go to the back of the shop and grab a Crassey Ranch and bring it back up, he'll fucking come back with a mop and just go,

I don't know, I don't know what it is. I tried, did my best boss. No, nobody, I realize that people are having real difficulty with labels and like stuff You know, like I have a lot of I have these conversations all the time where people go Yeah, we got to get some curtains, you know, and then I go Those are blinds and they go I don't blinds curtains and I go no no, there's curtains over here and there's like blinds over there and

People don't know stuff anymore. They don't know labels. All there and people don't know stuff anymore. They don't know labels. They don't know what mileage and torque and horsepower and power train warranties or weight or whatever. They don't know RPMs. They don't know anything. They don't know anything. Now let's talk world history. Imagine where that goes. Oh, they don't know anything. They don't know anything. Now let's talk world history, imagine where that goes.

They don't know anything. So you're trying to pitch them in a language they don't speak. All they know is sort of- Vibes. Well, they know colors and movement and vibes. And they sit back and they go, hey, it's fluffy, that's a fluffy dog and it's fun

and they're doing stuff. The sheep is cute. I don't even know if it's a sheep. I don't know. People don't know anything anymore. So why are we talking to them about horsepower and torque when they don't fucking, you could ask anyone in this building, And you could ask anyone in this building Is 10 pounds of torque in a car is that is that good or is it? 700 foot pounds of torque or is it 200 foot pounds of torque? What you put torque is or what torque is or what anything is they don't know anything and by the way They don't have to and they're not interested. Do you know what I mean? They know as much you know Your dad would have the tubes replaced on his TV set.

They got just as much chance of cracking open their fucking flat panel and fixing it as they do of knowing what torque is. Or what a tube is for back in the day. They don't know anything. So they have to make commercials for fucking retarded people who don't know anything. So they have to make commercials for fucking retarded people who don't know anything, who just work off of vibes. And that's it. I had a grown up a stereo system with

tubes. And why was it being called a stereo? People wouldn't know that either. Subaru doesn't even talk about price or mileage or anything, incentives or anything. They just show lesbians with dogs. They don't even show the outside of the car half the time. I don't have the image of the car in my head. There's a Volvo commercial where the dad just sits

on a stretch of land by a White House, by the ocean, a lighthouse, I should say, by the ocean, and he just sits there and writes a note to his daughter who's getting married and weeps. That's the Volvo commercial. Yeah, that's the Volvo. Hey, pussy. You just park and stare at the ocean

and write a heartfelt letter to your daughter. Right on. And the guy looks like a heartfelt letter to your daughter right on And the guy looks like a terrorist do which is funny because you know you got everything's got to be Volvo commercial Volvo commercial guy writes letter to his Daughter, it's looking can we just make note of my great triumph today. It really was a serious triumph I know where I pulled that out of I would say for you for for me It really was a serious triumph. I don't know where I pulled that out of. I would say for you.

For me, it was a serious triumph. The moment I loved a super-little guy. That I had that association from 1961. Pretty good. They've made a mockery of father knows best by having this biracial gay couple. I took care of Robert Young back in the day. Maybe that's one of them. Oh, you did?

Oh, that special connection. All right, I'll throw some dates out. We can find that Volvo. It's a Volvo commercial. It's about three years. Now listen, Drew. I've said a million times. No one else knows what the fuck I'm talking about

with any commercial. None of them, quiet. None of them. You, none of them. You wanna know why? They all fuckin' fast forward through the commercials. They don't watch commercials. I go, you must watch commercials so you know where we're at as a society.

No, you fuckin' study commercials. You think of the Zabruder tapes. Well, you can watch the Queen's Gambit, but you're not gonna learn anything about what's going on now. You're gonna go, oh, Brooklyn, but you're not going to learn anything about what's going on now. You're going to go, oh, Brooklyn, 1962. You know what I mean?

Study commercials now. They're 30-second snapshots of where we're at. Culture. Of culture. Now. Not 1972 and 1955, but now. And you can learn about those times by looking at the commercials from those eras. Oh Yeah, oh wait. We have an extended cut. I will just watch a beginning it

It's a terrorist pulls in front of the lighthouse to write a note to his daughter and has to hold back the tears I don't know if we get it There there is as he sits how weird sitting and thinking Let's see. Sits with his Volvo. Now this is the three minute, the 32nd version just doesn't have that exterior of the car. You were 10 years old and I was,

I drove you to summer camp. It was just the two of us. Yeah, beat the shit out of your mouth caught a reading I was dropping you off you had this smile this Same smile I see today. I love that this actor had to work on this Roommate this is actually creepy crying so much. He cried he cried and see the road Can see that I thought to myself I gotta get a Volvo. Oh man.

The reason I'm telling you this is that there will be moments in your life that you will not be ready for. You will just not be ready for. Oh my god. Your little girl getting married being one of them. Oh man. I'll tell you the funniest part to put on hold.

The funniest part about any car commercial, especially Volvo ones, is they just pull right out onto the sand and park and then jump out and have a picnic and stuff. There'd be some dude in a windbreaker going, hey dude, move it, move it on. You can't park anywhere near the fucking, they pull right out onto the jetty and just park. And then the family gets out, woo! So we got a terrorist writing a letter to his daughter. Who the fuck comes up with this shit?
