So football mudding update.
I sold my first ball, sold one for 200 bucks.
Happy about that.
Got the eBay feedback.
The guy said it was the best ball he's ever used and I'm going
to be his home for ball prep from now on.
I thought, you know what?
That's awfully nice.
People really like the YouTube channel because I'm very active
on there.
I answer every question I can.
And I send people videos and suggestions and stuff. I got a message today on Instagram from Catalina
football mud, which is like the pinnacle of football mud in the States. And the guy asked
me what kind of mud I'm using. And I think he was going to try and send me a sample or
something. And I told him like, I just use mud from my backyard. And he's like, oh, it
must be, he's like, oh, it must be really dark. I said, no, it's not. And I'm not convinced
it has to be like I told him straight up.
I'm like, I'm pretty sure you guys are all just using mud from your backyards and putting
shit in there.
He's like, no, no, we use it.
We use only mud.
It's only mud in our product.
Like give me the, you know, like for baseballs, um, do you know that the, the muddy baseball
because they want to give it to take off the shine with Lena, with Lena Blackburn, they
use that's the, uh, the mud that those guys use.
I thought the mud was a proprietary secret that they extracted from a specific river.
You're correct.
Never disclosed.
You're correct. But Lena Blackburn is the mud brand that you are talking about.
It's called Baseball Rubbing Mud. To give you an idea just how old this is.
It's pretty wild. I've obviously looked at this before but I'll share it with you now. This is the website
that they use still to this day. Looks like it was made on GeoCities I'm pretty
sure. It's like in Virginia or something like that? It's in New Jersey.
It's in New Jersey. So a lot of guys, so a few of these guys, you know, they'll
tell you that they get their, this guy who gets his mud from Alabama. And this
is the consistency you get. It's kind of like paint almost. And
the smell like knocks you out. I got a sample from this company
called LBC. And they sent me like a full prep kit to do a
ball with and I did a video on it. And I noted in the video
that like, you take the lid off the mud and it's like, oh my
god, it's you got to do it in an evented area. Yeah, but I don't usually, I, I brush them in a vented
area, but when I put the mud on, I usually do it inside because you don't want it to dry. You want
it to dry at room temperature. That's, I think that's another part of the trick, which they don't
tell you. I can't believe I've done all this fucking work mudding footballs, but truly like
it's so rewarding to have people. And I'll'll say this I'll say it here because I say
it on my channel I don't care about the money on that channel I started that channel reviewing all
the footballs I had because they're fucking expensive and I'm fortunate to be in a position
where I could buy a few of them test them and then tell people which one I thought was better
and why and different things about them and when I started finding out that there was companies selling eight ounce tens of mud
for 200 fucking dollars, I said, this cannot fly. I will not let big mud get people down.
I'm going to do this myself. Let's fucking do a mass operation. Your neighbors won't care
that we have huge holes being dug in your, and we can fucking match the deck in my backyard.
Fuck the deck. Like a 16 foot by 16 foot deck. And so it's going to be a lot of mud. I gotta,
I gotta like pour the mud under my house. But the deck is going to be covering up an area in which
that could be extracted. That's much. You got to look at it. The mud mine, the mud mine.
Exactly. You got to go right up to the property line. And you know, in some cases, depending on
your neighbors, maybe cross that line and just fucking dig, dig, dig, and just maximize
how much you get. And once you're done, you buy the neighbor's house and you start over.
This could be an empire, Joey. You could be the mud king.
I'm going to, I'm going to keep trying to sell them. I'm going to keep trying to sell
balls. I buy them on Amazon and I do them. And I basically just try and recoup my cost
plus like 30 bucks. So I don't mind. I am happy to do it because like I said, there's a lot of people out there who
can't afford this stuff. Like the balls are so expensive and I don't really like I get why but
if you're a parent and you buy a ball for your kid, like your kid is going to say,
well I want it to be broken in because now the kids don't want to wait for anything,
right? It's a TikTok generation. It's funny, you know, I want it to be broken in because now the kids don't want to wait for anything. Right. It's a tick tock generation. It's funny. You know, there's, there's money
to be made everywhere. And if I can make a little bit while the people out, I'm happy
to do it. So they're going to allegedly make money somewhere. I'm not saying you are. And
you're not, you're not saying you are. I have an eBay account. It's too late for me now.
So yeah, there you go. Okay. Well, is up to you. You could have used other anyway.
Canadian election, let's talk about that. Yeah, I know it was seven days ago. We had our special
last week. It was crazy and the results are the results. Like the proof is the proof, right? As
the wise man once said. Holy ev.
Like I could have swore, nevermind, I thought he was in a form of government. I was off on that, but I could have swore like once he lost, he would have stepped down just like every other leader
that lost. He's making videos when you get knocked down and you got to get back up. Just all, it's
all bad news, buddy. It's all bad news for the conservatives
you might not even win that riding did you see that there's already a push to put
tons of people on the ballot in this rural Alberta riding that he's running in a by-election
yes unreal like they he's he's done he's done so yeah and Sonny says I needed to vote harder buddy
I couldn't have voted any harder than I did right now I voted for everybody and nobody so everybody got my vote and nobody got my vote
I so leave it at that see if you could read between a lot. You already said you spoil your ballot
You know what? I didn't even fucking do that. I wanted to I didn't do that. I didn't even go I just
I'm just at this point Joey in my life
It's just I'm going through the motions
and that's what it is. That's all it really is and just just going through
the motions and whatever happens happens. I have I feel I have no part to play.
I'm just a I'm like a participant in this just watching things happen
and that's fine and that's just it's too bad but
with the election though Poliev I can't believe he's going to run again.
And I think this is a reflection of the
fact that there's nobody left in the party to run.
Like if by chance he were to leave, who would be the next heir apparent?
They can't.
Penny. Yeah, I know they can't run Lansman because she's Jewish.
I was going to say she's an option.
But she can't because people in the party and in Canada don't seem to be interested
in having anyone Jewish.
There's like a Hamas wing of the Liberal Party, I guess.
I don't know exactly what the story is there, but I've heard people in the know talk about
this.
It's not right, but it is what it is.
Like that's the climate.
And then I don't know, like Rempel Garner, maybe.
Does she want to run?
Who do you put there?
She'd be an interim leader, I think.
I don't think she's...
Who would you put in there?
Who would you put in there?
So again, the one...
Balsillie is the guy. I'm telling you, he is the guy.
Balsillie is one.
Kevin O'Leary.
O'Leary also tried running as well.
So like having him... maybe a Mulrooney.
Somebody with the last name Mulrooney.
Ben doesn't want it. His mom doesn't want it.
Jason Kenny.
Kenny I wouldn't mind seeing.
Long shot Doug Ford.
Did Pierre dirty. Do you want to talk about that Ford strategy leading up to the election there?
Seems like he wanted to get an underground 401 tunnel out of the whole deal, right?
The commentary about Poliev and the weeks leading up to the election.
Now he's pining for a tunnel.
How could you build a fucking tunnel?
Ask Elon man, he did it, you know
No, I asked you're familiar with the big dig in boston
No
so they had a
I could be wrong, but it was a
Highway that went through the city
They decided you know what instead of having an above ground. Let's put it below ground. It could create
beautiful landscape and shit like that
So they did this it it was countless years, it
went way over budget, it flooded, it did all this shit,
people fucking died because ambulances were delayed. It was
just fucking pathetic. But in that was a small section that
they did, and it cost billions and billions of dollars, a
couple of decades ago, now you're talking about doing it
now in 2025, or at least planning it now with Canadian dollars at that. And for a longer stretch, I don't know how they
could do this and maintain some sort of fiscal responsibility. I don't think it's a possibility.
If they want to tax people, why do they do this? Yeah. Okay. Then I can understand that
if they want to say, Oh, let's, you know, let's increase taxes, you know, whatever is burr it You know, they'll just borrow
Ontario Ontario bond trillion
Called whatever do you want to talk a bit about how two days after the election Brookfield announced that they're putting 30 billion with a B
dollars into American manufacturing elbows up
Remember their arms length. No, I wasn't in trust in trust elbows up. Yeah, that's remember their arms length.
No, what is it?
In trust, in trust.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Do you think they made that decision before the campaign when the terrorist started or
you think they made it in the week before the election?
Like how long does it take a multinational corporation to allocate 30 billion dollars?
Does it take two days, two months, six months, a quarter?
I don't have a no one knows, but I would only suggest
that the timing is a bit suspicious is all.
Do you think now there's gonna be any real change
over the next few years with Mark Carney at the helm
versus say, you think that's gonna be basically the same thing?
Well, okay, we should talk about this.
Doomburg is one of these, it's funny, yeah,
so Priestess just said the same thing. The Doomburg is one of these, it's funny. Yeah. So priestess just said the same thing.
The Doomburg money talks interview has, has my, my, uh, my test.
He's tingling a little bit.
I'll tell you why.
Rub some mud on it.
Yeah, I should rub some mud.
I should get my second wife to rub some mud on it.
The, uh, the thing that I would say about the Doomburg interview on looney hour and
on money talks, he did the same skit, you
know, shtick. I don't want to say skit. He's too smart for that word. And I will tell you
that a couple of smart macro people messaged me after the Looney Hour episode. And we were
talking about that episode. And I said to these guys that I thought that the Doonberg
predictions were way off base. It was before the election. I thought that the Doomburg predictions were way off base
is before the election I thought the idea that this the chick the chicken
thinks that Carney is going to cash in all his political capital to unlock
Alberta energy and build Trump's fortress North America with Alberta oil
and he's going to say to people it's either this or Trump beats us we have to and build Trump's fortress North America with Alberta oil.
And he's going to say to people,
it's either this or Trump beats us.
We have to win and this is how we win.
That is crazy to me that everyone is just thinking
this is gonna go along, blah, blah, blah.
Then Carney wins the election, okay?
That's surprise number one.
Surprise number two is a day later,
Danielle Smith, who Doomburg says
is winning a Best Actress Award in a day later, Danielle Smith, who Doonberg says is winning a Best
Actress Award in a dramatic series, goes on TV and says that she is easing the requirements
for secession for Albertans to have their referendum on leaving Canada.
Then today, she gives another 20-minute address on resource rich Alberta and how transfer payments are not
helping Albertans, blah, blah, blah.
She is laying it on awfully thick.
And if she ends up being a part of this whole thing and Carney says we have to keep Alberta
on board, we're unifying the country, I've had this environmental slant my whole career.
I'm only doing this because I think it's the most important thing and the right thing to
do.
Maybe he's got the chops and the background and the reputation
all at the right time. And Trump is the specter in the corner. Maybe he does it. If he did
that Len, if he actually unlocked Alberta oil, I would vote for him in the next election.
That would be enough for me to vote for him in the coming Canadian election. I would vote
for him in the second term election. I would vote for him. So you're a one policy or one idea?
I'm a one characteristic voter. I want to see guys who get it.
And I'm not trying to say it's good or bad. I'm just trying to say the one thing would be the...
I think I like that. I like that kind of stuff. I think he gets it. The same way that I think
Trump and his team generally get it, whether they execute is a different story. But I think that Carney, if he, if Carney does that, regardless of what,
you know, a story gets run or whatever, and by the way, CTV running stories,
scaring people about Alberta's secession. Like since when is that a CTV story, by the way?
Well, all this talk about net zero at his wife's involvement. Yeah. Yeah. Mark Carney's involvement with the UN and greenhouse gas and all
this. Like, could you see him doing an about face and doing
this? This is for the good of Canada, though. The thesis is
that the thesis is that he he is going to do it because it
makes the most sense for him professionally as well. Like in
his sort of, you know, trust assets and
that he knows Trump, he's worked with Trump before and Trump wants this and
everyone is just playing their part and off we go. And Doonberg, you know, is
talking about stuff like, you know, the power brokers in Canada have decided
this needs to happen and so they put the pieces in place to make it happen. That's
possibly also true. I don't know who those power players would be to be frank, but if they do it then that's huge.
I mean, you're talking about a ton of jobs, cheap energy,
like prosperity in Alberta and across the country.
If Alberta goes all in on oil and gas,
like the amount of money flowing into the country
and coming from the sale
of those resources will be unbelievable. It'll be like we've never seen in our lifetimes.
Well, we've had, not to say that we were extracting it to the same degree what you're laying
out there, but we've had, what was it, oil at like $140 twice in the past 18 years.
What? Like 2008 for a barrel domestically or in the United States?
Like in what currency? 140 Canadian a barrel was 140.
You wasn't it that higher 40s a lot for so I'm pretty sure it
would happen in oh eight and in 2014 that the oil went up
and it spiked huge, the price per barrel.
And that's when a lot of people started moving to Alberta because there was jobs aplenty.
If I go back to 20, what year did you say?
Sorry, give me the-
2014 and 2008.
We've had two spikes.
I don't have 14.
I have 15, got to 61.
I can't go back further than that on the, on trading economics.
If someone can pull that up for me in the chat, I would greatly appreciate it. I'd't go back further than that on the, on trading economics. If someone
can pull that up for me in the chat, I would greatly appreciate it. I'd be curious. The
hundred, the highest, like the highest I can see on the chart for the last. I was off by
20, 120. Okay. Yeah. I see 120 in 2022 or 115 in 2022. Oh, go back to your seven years
to yeah. I can't, I can't go back any further. But yeah. At that time.
Oh no, here it is here. Okay. Hold on. Hold on. Let's, let's talk about this data here.
So June 2008, you're right. 140 US a barrel. And then, uh,
that was, keep in mind that was 2008 dollars. Yeah. Yeah.
Right. That's in perspective. So go on.
And then the next spike to 114 in 2011.
You said 2014 was your other guess.
I was thought it was 2014.
The 2011 date is the significant jump and it's a fast jump to.
What happened at that?
Those two times when oil spiked, the Canadian dollar also surpassed parity.
We went to like 105, 110, each of those two years
and people were buying.
I remember like in the 08 one, for instance,
I was looking for a motorcycle at the time
and a lot of people were going to the States to buy them
because they were far cheaper to do that and import it
than to buy it domestically here.
And even cars, people were doing that here.
In fact, somebody I knew purchased a car in the States.
You know him too, but I won't mention his name.
Just that's what happened.
I don't know if the same thing is gonna happen now
is if the Canadian dollar, it's decoupled,
the word of the day, from Canadian oil in general.
But maybe if oil goes up,
maybe the Canadian dollar is also gonna notice
a little bit of a bump as well. We'll see what happens. But federally though, we didn't have a surplus. 2008 was
because of the great financial crisis, but at least 2014-ish, we were in a recession at that time.
Federally, we were in a recession. That's what helped bring in Trudeau to be elected.
Right. So what I'm trying to get at is we were extracting oil and it was very expensive and
Alberta was making money hand or fist, but federally we weren't doing all that well.
So what's good for Alberta may not be good for the nation as a whole may not I'm not saying it is ready, but just at least those two instances
It didn't maybe dollar parity is the thing to look at we've talked before about how
Since we're not a productive nation. We're a nation of imports
We do need to have a strong currency on the global FX markets to sustain a certain quality of life
So for the boomers, for example, do you want their pension dollars
to be worth as much as they can be on the global market against the
US dollar specifically?
And so maybe that parity is what is driving this.
Honestly, I don't know.
And part of me is excited about it because I've called Mark Carney
shrewd and I think he is shrewd and if his intentions are aligned
with mine, great.
If that's what he wants to do, great.
It's like anybody else.
Anybody else would be in that same position.
If the person that's there, that's in charge, has the same ideas you have, wonderful.
But it can execute. Like Paul Yev has the same ideas I have. Wonderful. But it can execute.
Like, like Paul Yev has the same idea as I have.
I don't, I'm not confident.
I've said this before, like, I don't think he's a good
politician.
I don't, I'm not sure he could execute it
in the same way Carney could.
I can't believe I'm saying this.
This is like very positive Carney talk, but yeah.
I mean, look, I, I think it's possible.
He's, I think it's possible.
He ends up being a PM that I like.
I think we've established though
that probably the same outcome
is gonna be regardless who's there.
So I don't think there's gonna be much change
regardless who's in charge.
It is what it is.
You don't think there's gonna be change
about what's happening in the future
or you don't think there's gonna be any change from now? The future, right? I think the outcomes would be this. Okay. That's what you're saying. Okay.
Yeah. Like it's, it's all paths are leading towards the same type of end point and there may be some
deviation in terms of how they get there, but I may one, maybe one year off or five years out,
I don't know, but we get to the same destination it seems. And whatever it is, we all know what an attack it is. But the one thing that I want to just
point out is the liberal party very close to getting a majority. Yeah, very, very close.
And they could govern like a majority. The NDP, they don't have a leader. They're done.
Jagmeet Singh said he's going to stay on until they have an interim leader. But how many more pensions can he collect?
Is there another pension?
No, no.
What's going on?
There's no, there's nothing to do with a pension whatsoever because he's not even elected official.
So he's just there as in Mac green lost to by the way, your favorite.
Oh my God.
I go to sword and he won.
Okay.
That's interesting.
One of the so they would have been the balance of power to block too, but at least with the seven seats
It's easier to at least uh, liberals are more aligned with n.dp. I think than anybody else but
with the n.dp with out a leader with the n.dp
Assumingly in debt because they had a fucking bus not a plane for the most part
Like you just look at the landscape. They didn't have money. They have no appetite for an election. Zero. They don't want to have an election
anytime soon. They want to clean up two things. One, they want to raise funding and two, they
want to get a leader. So that's going to take time for both of them. So they're not going
to want to have they called you yet. Your communist leanings. They know about that.
I have. Yeah. So they don't want to election every time there's going to be a vote of non-confidence,
if they're for it, like they like what's being proposed, they'll vote for it. If they're
against it, they'll abstain. And that abstaining will be enough for the liberals to carry on.
The liberals could govern for the time being like they have a majority. Carney's saying as much by the way in the press. There's no
reason to believe otherwise. The way it's set up there is no I see no path for
this government to fall. I agree. I was gonna ask you when you think the
next election is gonna be because people are saying you know 12 18 months I
I don't think that at all I think the next election is going to be because people are saying 12, 18 months.
I don't think that at all.
I think you're looking at a fucking four year government.
It's when these two things happen is when the NDP get a leader and get enough money.
Once they solve these two problems, whenever that is, it could be a year, it could be four,
but I just don't know the date.
That's the time when we're on borrowed time for this government. Then there could be an election anytime moving forward. Sure, sure. I see people
in the chat priestess, no way. I think she's talking about the four-year government. Carney,
like decisive with the media over the last few days when asked about coalitions and you know,
official kind of partnerships.
He's saying like, look, I'm not gonna get into an agreement
with any of these parties.
I expect them to do what's best for the country.
Like that's a guy who knows something.
That's how it sounds to me, honestly.
If I had to characterize it with a short statement,
that's what I would say.
Carney is talking like a guy who knows something.
You think he's got some hidden agenda or maybe he's got something an ace up his sleeve to
Yeah, I do.
Yeah, I don't know what it is.
You're in the wrong.
An ace up his sleeve.
Do you know there with all this?
I want him to come to my house and do the podcast.
That's what I want.
While he's the prime minister, I want him to come to my house and do the podcast. That's what I want. While he's the Prime Minister, I want him to come to my house and do the show. I may like actually go full autism and focus on that for as long
as it takes to have it happen.
So you know that the with the liberals now winning again, there's two things that they're
going to be able to do. And one is going to be the Supreme Court stuff. Yeah. Second,
the Senate. They're not going to talk about really quick stuff. Yeah. Second, the Senate.
Then I'm going to talk about really quick about each of the two,
but I'm just going to deviate really quick.
The one thing Donald Trump did before he left his last term
is he appointed judges to the Supreme Court that favored it towards one side.
That's going to be some of his legacy for a very long time.
The Roe v Wade stuff.
Remember that as a result of this is all because of his appointments to the Supreme Court and as they continue
to stack it in that direction that's gonna make headways the way the country
is gonna be governed at least sorry legislation is gonna be dealt with but
Canada do you know we have a hundred and I think it's a hundred and eight
senators I think that's number 100 so something like 110 whatever fuck it is. Almost all senators have been
appointed by the liberals. 97 of the hundred I think 10 senators have been
97 have been appointed by the liberals. After this year, after we finish the end
of 2025 because we have
three that are going to be coming up, three or four, we're gonna be at 99 to 100
senators that are going to be liberal. So basically 90% of the Senate is going to
be liberals and it's going to be continually moving that moving forward.
The second, the Supreme Court of Canada, the six of them,
of the nine, have been appointed under Justin Trudeau. So I'm not sure
when the other three, when they're gonna retire, but if it's gonna be under Mark
Carney's tenure, you have a potential of having all the current judges in the
Supreme Court of Canada that are appointed by the Liberal Party
They're thinking about that for sure. There's no doubt about it
And this is again just like what's happening in the United States when they've appointed senators
Sorry people to their Supreme Court
This could have a huge implication on how things are gonna be done over here and this has and this is decades long
This is not like this is fucking what is the term? Is it till 75?
For senator, it's 70 or 75. Okay. Um
I don't know what it is for supreme court, but you could I think you could give him a carrot to leave early
Just like you can in the senate, right brazzo, by the way was appointed in his 30s
And he's the long he's if you look at the list of when somebody's
going to retire, he's the last to retire even of the current block and he's been there appointed
from two prime ministers ago. He can leave senate and go run for pope. That's the only other job
that will take him when he's done. So the guy that the Poliev asked or they finagled something to
for that guy to step down and so he could run in that riding.
Now I was talking to somebody today, what would you offer that guy that decided to arbitrarily
step down? He's a young guy. The first thing that came to mind is a cushy position. Like maybe
cabinet spot. Yeah. No, he wouldn't be a staff. What chief of staff? I did first two things is
Senate, right? They give him a Senate position or the second it was, and this one is shut down and makes
sense.
I thought maybe make him high commissioner to some fucking great hotspot like Kingston,
Jamaica or something.
No wars over there.
Good weather, right?
Like it's a, it's a phenomenal place to go, right?
Like something like that, but he's in his thirties.
He probably doesn't want that.
So maybe somewhere where you can have a second wife, right?
That's the trend.
Take him to Quebec.
BTC Priestess replied to the tweet saying that
this has been popular other places.
It's legal in Ontario, BC, Quebec.
And that I need to research it.
The only thing stopping me from getting a second wife
is that my wife is stuck in normie thinking.
I didn't realize that was all I want.
Lay some groundwork here.
We'll do this story and then we'll check out.
So in Quebec, the Quebec Superior Court on just this past Friday ruled that limiting
the legal affiliation of children to one or two parents is unconstitutional.
So the first constitutes a throuple. That's
one of the people that were challenging this. The second was involved a lesbian couple and a male
donor who wished to have the child as be part of the father part of the child's life was a father
figure. And the third was a woman living with infertility who allowed
her husband to have a child with a friend who asked her main on as a mother.
So those are the three that fought this in one.
So now you have this in Quebec where at least the media is portraying it as throuples able
to get some existing benefits. I don't know how I feel about all this. benefits?
I don't know how I feel about all this.
I really don't.
I'm starting to get to the age now where it feels like I've missed some kind of like cultural
flashpoint when it comes to relationships.
Even in my heyday, I still understood that at some point I would have to settle down
and oftentimes there was like whatever this is gonna sound stupid but I'll say it
anyway the only conflicts I ever found myself in were when one of my partners
found out about another one and like now it seems like this way of thinking has
disappeared you know I did a quick look on Twitter for some of
the terms that I saw. One of them from the priestess here, poly-inomy or
something like that. I forget, there's a G in there somewhere. Moves in silence
like lasagna. And it seems like there's a lot of support for this. And I will note that if I look at the social,
the sort of public facing side
of multi-partner relationships,
oftentimes I'm not impressed with the way people look,
act, sound, et cetera, et cetera.
But maybe there's another sort of more conservative
multi-partner side of things
that I just don't know anything about.
And I'm not gonna start looking for a second wife,
but if you are looking for a second wife,
then presumably you may not have as much difficulty
as you thought if you are in a quote unquote
modern single partner relationship, who knows? Maybe
everyone's reading from the same playbook and just waiting for someone to bring it
up over dinner. I can't imagine that it's that easy, but maybe it is. Maybe I'm the
one that doesn't get it. Could this be also a way of trying to be supportive of
one type of group out there that has multiple partners historically. I don't know.
Do you think of it? I don't want to... I'm not saying it. I'm not. I mean, I'm trying.
You know what I mean? I'm tiptoeing, bro. That's, you know, I hardly ever tiptoe on the show.
And I'm tiptoeing right now. But you think about it, right? Like it could be one way to, you know,
just make it... I don't know. I don't know. And you can have up to four. Could you handle two wives?
Let's say you had your wife's blessing, we got to find a second wife.
Yeah, there'd be some hilariously funny and positive aspects to that, especially for the
guy.
I honestly don't think I could do it.
And I'm not just saying that because it's putting me in a position where I don't have
to, but I just don't like, I don't
understand where you would, I mean, assuming that both women want to feel like they're in a
committed relationship with you. Maybe it gives an opportunity to talk when you're done and you go
to sleep. We can have a discussion with each other, right? Like, so when you're ready to roll over.
Yeah, I don't know. Maybe, you know, there's one thing we didn't discuss and it was the cut.
Also, I see I could see in the chat.
We don't want to get into it.
The conversation.
I'm not.
It's not that I don't want to get into it.
It's like I don't have anything.
I don't have an experience to draw on.
Like you mentioned, the only time I did this was not in a situation full of integrity.
So yeah, I don't have that to draw on.
I have one wife that I've been with the same girl
for I think like 13 years now, something like that.
I've been with Kenzie for.
So it's not like I can't even like,
even my dating memory is kind of foggy at this point.
And so when people ask like,
do you think you could have a second wife?
It's like, I don't fucking know.
But if it's cultural,
and in some cultures it's fucking allowed. Right? So that you may
not be able to fucking handle it.
It's encouraged. It's encouraged. It's like the long house. Right? Is that, I think that's
the-
And the way I understand it is historically it's because the men go out to fight and then
they get whacked. And as a result, you know, it's just, you tend to have a different ratio.
The number of viewers on the show just fucking shot up.
Well, it's just the ratio between men and women during times of war, they change. And so it just
enables, right? So that's, that's always explained to me. I don't know if there's any validity or
fucking truth to that. I just took that and smiled and nodded and that's basically it. The one thing
we didn't fucking talk about though, maybe we do Maybe what we don't is the cuts to the foreign workers slash of two national students. I'm not sure if you saw this
Well, they're gonna be lowering the number to 5% of the population to only 2 million a year great good
Word is right now. It's a seven point something percent. So it's really not a huge difference, right?
But it's it's still a step in the right direction. So does this
change anything? Those diploma mills are still going to be operating, I would imagine, right?
Like a lot of job cuts at some of these universities though, you notice that,
you know, some of the post-secondary institutions we've discussed on this program over the last
two years have seen significant cuts. So I think it's, you know, they got it. They got to be doing
marriage counselor courses, because if they're going to be allowing people
to have multiple wives, right?
That type of industry is going to fucking boom.
I need like, I don't know.
I have to find out more about this.
Maybe I'll try take a secret recording of me pitching it to Ken's like, listen, I think
it's time to bring on.
We just had a baby.
The dog is completely insane.
I spend most of my time doing three by five
barbell sets, working a nine to five, running a podcast, putting mud on footballs in the basement.
You got to throw it. I don't know. This is fucking hilarious.
Yeah. No, I don't know.
Quite a different battle. This is not a hill you want to like, what do you think? What do
you think? You maybe PS five pro or like or like some, Are you disappointed in this console's generation?
I just started playing. I started playing Last of Us last night out of like pure boredom.
And I might, I might give it a shot. It's a really good game apparently.
And there's like, did you get to switch to? No, I didn't get it yet.
I mean, did you order or did you like order anything? No.
Scalpers Unite. I think I got two or three so far.
I'll just, I'll just come meet you in a parking lot like I did for the ESL. Yeah. For people who are unaware, I was,
I was able to secure quite a few of the PS5s and Joey got one of them.
A cost too. I think I gave it to you a cost. Yeah. I think,
I think I gave you a little bit more because I refused to take it at cost,
but you were going to sell it to me for cost. Yeah.
You were, you were a few at cost. I had a number of them and uh, yeah, the ones that I sold
allegedly sold for hire. They were, they were, it was good times. It was like a second job.
Like if you want to talk about printing money, that, that was the time where fucking money was
being printed. Yeah. PS five consoles. Fucking it was raining money. I love this BTC. Precess.
You should go on. Actually I'll say this live on the air to put you on the spot true
Heather is looking for someone exactly like you to go on her podcast and I forgot to put you guys in touch
But I told her that I would so you should message her
I think she's looking for some more female perspective on that show and there's not much
Well, finally after looking at what she's saying in the chat, you can fucking give her some perspective. I'll tell you that
Anyway, let's get out of here. Go watch the Leafs
Why they're playing a 205. Yeah. Yeah fuck is dropping now right on time
So we'll see you guys tomorrow then is talking to fundamentals and then next week. I don't know
We'll see what's going on. But until then take care of yourselves. Take care
