The sizzle of adobe chicken on the grill. The chopping of onions and cilantro. We call our playlist, real. Order now.
Starting point is 00:00:43 Chipotle, for real. And, too, the direct acknowledgement that you have hurt people around you. But there's not really that. It's more like, I've alarmed and I've upset people with my behavior. It to me reads, yeah, it's a very sort of insular statement. It's more about me than it is about anybody else out there. And yeah, I'm sorry if I upset or alarmed you if I caused you some kind of emotional distress in reacting to me, but not I'm sorry for the people I hurt or endangered or whatever else.
Starting point is 00:01:16 What is going on there, citizens of the Reject Nation? Greg here today. John, how are you? I am very anticipate of what we're about to talk about. So we were out and about this news dropped as we were on. our way back and i was like well well we have some thoughts already we got to talk about it you knew we would asra miller this sounds like a publicist statement in all honesty probably is asra miller has issued a statement to variety here's how it goes having recently gone through a time
Starting point is 00:01:49 of crisis of infinite earth through a time of intense crisis i now understand that i am suffering complex mental health issues and I've begun ongoing treatment. I want to apologize to everyone that I have alarmed and upset with my past behavior. You know, when you like read it, like I heard it on the road and then you read it. It just, I'm committed to doing the necessary work to get back to a healthy, safe and productive stage in my life. I'm very apprehensive towards the statement because yeah i mean i think all of us would more than likely agree most of us even the ones who would say uh you know who are the ones who are for ezra miller i think there's no denying that there is mental health issues that definitely need to be worked on that definitely need to be
Starting point is 00:02:40 treated that there has to be something for it so at least they're owning up to that right it's just there's some specifically calculated words because it's still not about owning up to the past actions just saying that when you take the time especially to issue a statement one working with the publicist, one would assume that if they really did feel responsible for their actions or that they did do something wrong, they might actually be a little bit more forthcoming with saying that. I know that sounds presumptuous, so I'm sure there's more to actually come out. The reason why I'm going there with that mentality is because of the fact that just because someone has mental health issues doesn't mean there shouldn't be consequences for one's
Starting point is 00:03:20 actions. Like, yes, they should go get mental health treatment. Sure. At the same time, punishment should be dealt in some fashion. Everything with Dakota Ironines that we learned of what started at the age of 12, I think that in itself is a terrible thing. The amount of reports of like terrorizing Hawaii,
Starting point is 00:03:39 whether a fraction of them were not true or were. Who knows? Bottom line is like, you know that some of this is true to say to the least. There are enough events. That is at least some of them have to be out then. And I think that it doesn't matter if you have just mental health issues. are not like there should be consequence for that because bottom line is this individual is more
Starting point is 00:03:59 likely to get off the hook due to the fact of their power and fame and they should not be able to get off the hook due to their power and fame while one can read this and interpret it like oh they must be owning up they're technically not owning up to the things they have actually done i'm really not i'm really not because if they did i'd be like oh right well at least they owned up i still think there's got to be consequences. This seems very calculated and the specific word choices. It does. It does. It's one of those things where, you know, my initial reactions, I want to believe this is true. I want to put the best, you know, faith in people. And I don't know because, yeah, this is very well packaged. It's very sort of conscientious in how it is worded.
Starting point is 00:04:41 I don't want to be so cynical, but this says in the article that a representative of the actor sent this statement in. So I got to imagine this may have been workshopped with a few people. It's hard because I can understand why somebody would be inclined to accept this, but there also, yeah, isn't a naming of the specific past behaviors that they want to own up to or what specific kind of treatment is. And, hey, they don't have to give, they don't owe us all of their intimate medical details. Of course not. And it's good that they're seeking treatment and all other stuff. But yeah, I mean, it does read as a bit of a gloss just to be like, hey, sorry to anybody alarmed with my past behavior, moving right on past that. I feel like, yeah, this is probably a bid in a lot of ways to
Starting point is 00:05:19 maintain as little disruption of Ezra Miller's statish at the moment as possible, and I think what you said is absolutely true. I wish this came with maybe a pledge to take some time away from the public eye, or to take some time away from everything to really go and do the work, acknowledge with the work, is not only on the personal side getting treatment, that's great, yes, but also, you know, how are you going to kind of at least address and or atone for these strange occurrences that you've been putting people through across the country? And so, yeah, it reads as a bit clean. While I really hope the work is getting done, there's not really a specific acknowledgement of that stuff here. So I don't know. I don't know how much. I'll wait and see.
Starting point is 00:05:59 Ezra Miller shouldn't be at the same status they are right now while they're taking care of this issue. I feel like they should take all that time to do the personal and external work and then maybe come back into the acting world or whatever. Not that this is really necessarily commenting on their career in particular, but you know that's why the statement is here. You know, At least they're aware of some of the damages that have actually been happening, and it sounds like the pressure's been cooking. Like, it's really interesting that, you know, that whole felony burglary charge comes out. I did see on social media that there were people going, that there were some other neighbor, if I'm not mistaken, please feel free to add on in the comments if I am incorrectly remembering this, but I believe there were some other neighbor who's like, this would just go over there all the time. They would borrow from each other.
Starting point is 00:06:43 This whole story is getting blown out of proportion, and that's not exactly how it is. maybe at the same time there's still a felony burglary charge so it seems like there's always some defense you shouldn't have to break in for all that's like all the more reason you shouldn't have to break in then if you have that
Starting point is 00:07:00 well of a rapport with somebody then it would stand a reason they would just allow you the access and then while there was like that charge and then of course Warner Brothers with the reported three options they have for Ezra Miller and like this looks like it's going down option numero uno right here of what they would want Ezra to do. It's very easy to be calculated and manipulative
Starting point is 00:07:20 with your wording though. Situations like this. I'm like this is like a thing that has to really be out there, not just with your words like clarity, specificity with your words, but also actions that follow forward, you know, and time. Yeah. And to the direct acknowledgement that you have hurt people around you. And I mean, you know, there's not really that. It's more like I've alarmed and I've upset people with my behavior. It to me reads, yeah, it's a very sort of insular statement. It's more about me than it is about anybody else out there. And yeah, I'm sorry if I upset or alarmed you if I caused you some kind of emotional distress in reacting to me,
Starting point is 00:07:58 but not I'm sorry for the people I hurt or endangered or whatever else. Yeah, so that's pretty much where we're coming from on the matter. I hope that the people who are legitimately harmed post-actions can find some type of resolve and resolution. Hope that the treatment goes well for Ezra Miller for the future. And we're one step closer to seeing the flash. We're one step closer. Damage control. Damage control.
Starting point is 00:08:23 Zazlov, get this shit under control. Yeah, no, I wouldn't be surprised if somebody made a few calls and threatened, you know, the bag. Like the fact that Ezra's finally speaking, it doesn't seem coincidental at all. It's like, oh, this is all really lining up with everything we've been hearing reported on. Yeah. And a weird time to drop the information. Yeah. Like evening in Los Angeles.
Starting point is 00:08:46 Yeah, weird timing. Yeah. All right, guys. Well, what do you think about this? Leave your thoughts down below. My hair has been in my eyes this whole time. I apologize. See you soon.
