Hey and welcome to tomorrow, I'm your host Josh Wattipulski.
Today on the podcast we discuss Eucalyptus, Lizard People, and Tracy Chapman.
I don't want to waste one minute, let's get right into it.
All right Ryan, we're back.
Oh, look at that.
And I'm glad that we fucked up this weekend, waited to
the Saturday to record this podcast because a lot of shit has gone down the last few hours.
I don't know if you heard. So no, this is doing a Bluetooth.
So no, this is doing a Bluetooth. That's right. Bluetooth speaker.
No, let's just let's just talk about it. Okay, we have to get it out there. Jeffery Epstein
has committed suicide. Sorry, committed suicide with scare quotes about it. Okay, we have to get it out there. Jeffrey Epstein has committed suicide, sorry, committed suicide with scare quotes around it.
Scare quotes are uncommitted and scare quotes are on suicide.
Jeffrey Epstein, who is a pedophile, a horrible pedophile, a billionaire pedophile, and apparently
ran a pedophile ring, basically. Go on like the worst version of sex trafficker that
CSI's SVU could have come up with. Like definitely.
One order SVU.
I mean, definitely Jeffrey Epstein is like was like a film level sex trafficker, like taken
level sort of maniacal pervert pedophile sex trafficker.
Iconically evil, one might say.
At any rate, he killed himself in prison last night or this morning or something.
And now, of course, I mean, there's literally, it doesn't seem to be a sane person on the
internet anymore because everybody believes that Jeffery Epstein has been murdered either
by the Clintons, the royal family, Trump,
or some combination of those things.
I mean, currently trending on Twitter right now
is Epstein murder, trending with Bill Clinton.
Trump body count is number two.
Prince Andrew is number three,
and then Bill Barr, who is like,
I'm outraged that he's killed himself.
And so listen, I mean, it is, here's the thing, like there's a sane version of being suspicious
about this where you say like, okay, this guy who has been admittedly had ties to intelligence
agencies and had these insane, this insane backstory where he's a dropout at 20, gets hired
to be a professor at Dalton, then goes on to be like a finance guy who doesn't necessarily
seem to be doing a ton of finance and is running a pedophile ring becomes a billionaire hangs out with
some of the most powerful people in the world and the day after those names start to leak,
he quote him quote commit suicide and jail like it's worth being like wow holy shit like this is not
this doesn't add up you don't have to be a conspiracy theorist to be like this doesn't make sense.
It's the leap from there to be like Clinton body count,
like the leap directly to like William Barr
shot him in the back of the head.
Like that stuff, like it's not helpful.
Like it goes from like, we should talk about the circumstances
around this to like, you know, it's jaw rule
and the guy from the fire festival's fault.
So to be clear, like now I've got people in my timeline,
people who should have a functioning brain
who are retweeting professional conspiracy,
right wing conspiracy theorists,
like normal people that I think are generally fairly sane.
This is Louise Mench's best case scenario.
Normal people who I think are sane and well adjusted
and have fairly reasonable politics
are like retweeting people.
First of all, they definitely don't know
or understand where they're coming from.
But like everybody is now fully down the fucking rabbit hole
that Jeffrey Epstein's suicide is definitely like
a black ops murder.
And you know, here's the thing,
I'm not gonna rule out the possibility
that he was murdered, okay?
But a lot of people, particularly pedophiles,
who are being held, awaiting trial,
this happens a lot, they kill themselves.
Now, I know Jeffrey Epstein is special in the world,
but in jail, Jeffrey Epstein is a lot less special
than I think you imagine he is.
Like, in jail, somebody might be like, hey, this guy's Epstein is a lot less special than I think you imagine he is like like in jail
Somebody might be like hey this guy's in the in the news a lot
But to the people who work at the jail
Like he's another prisoner. He's a pedophile. He's like a piece of shit pedophile prisoner
Or is he in rich people jail?
wherever he is wherever he is
You have that a much money like you could be like here's 10 grand take a walk
This is my point. Yes. Okay, so so the question we have to ask ourselves is,
like is what is most likely the Jeffrey Epstein
because of his ability to expose many powerful people
that there was an elaborate, like hit put on him
that was like executed by, no pun intended,
you know, a series would have to be,
there would have to be many, many people who were involved
in a like a very high level sort of like murder plot
to kill Jeffrey Epstein and Jail,
or, or is it possible that the,
that this guy who's a billionaire
found a way, either it's a guard or someone else at the,
wherever he's being held and said, like, look,
like, I don't wanna go through this trial.
I don't, he's like, I wanna fucking kill myself.
Like, I'll give you a million dollars.
I'll give your family $500,000, whatever.
Like, just walk away for a few minutes, you know?
Or even, I mean, apparently he wasn't under suicide watch.
You know, a week ago, apparently they took't under suicide watch, you know, a week ago
that apparently they took him off suicide watch or on the 20, yeah, over a week ago on the 29th
of July, apparently, according to The New York Times, is it more likely that he somehow convinced
people he's like, look, I'm not a danger to myself, you know, I had a moment, a momentary sort of,
you know, freak out the other day when I, my neck was injured or whatever. And I'm fine now.
And you know, I'm gonna see this through.
I think I can prove my innocence.
And they went, okay, sure.
And took them off suicide watch.
And somebody went to sleep, you know,
last night, whoever's guarding his cell,
fucking whatever, like wasn't paying attention.
They got killed.
Like this happens all the time.
We're both.
Frankly, like we don't want him to exist.
Like if he tries to kill himself, let him go for it.
Right, I'm just, the other way is I can do.
Because when Jeffrey Dahmer got beaten to death in jail,
okay, he was supposed to serve a life sentence.
The guards were supposed to protect him
from being beaten to death.
But guess what, Jeffrey Dahmer got beaten to death.
You know, these things happen.
What is more likely is that this is just one of those things.
Then it's like, there's a international conspiracy
to stop Jeffrey Epstein from talking about.
By the way, even if Jeffrey Epstein was like,
Trump was my number one customer.
It doesn't mean anything.
Like, you know what I mean?
It's like, there are all these people who are named
and his documents and his books and all this other shit. It's like, you need evidence.
You need a witness, right? There are, by the way, there are women who said, oh, yeah,
Prince Andrew, like he like traded me around to like Prince Andrew. Those are witnesses
we should listen to those people, you know, as of right now, as far as I know, there's
nobody who's like, yeah, Trump was like, you know, like Trump raped me or Bill Clinton
raped me or any of the people that everybody's like saying
or behind this.
By the way, I'm not defending Donald Trump.
He definitely has done rapes.
Like he's a horrible person, I'm sure.
But like, I'm just saying that in this particular case,
like there are actual witnesses who can tell you
what Jeffery Epstein was doing.
There are associates of Jeffery Epstein that enabled him
and there are documents and photos and lots of other shit
that the authorities have.
So it's not just like it begins and ends
with one guy and what he has to say.
Though obviously like, he should have been brought to justice.
He should have, there should have been an opportunity
for him to spill whatever he has to spill.
And it's actually the fucked up part is that like,
the victims of his crimes and the public deserves,
you know, to know, and just, you know,
to know really what happened
and to see justice served, which now obviously won't.
Well, I mean, that's the thing that I think
maybe is the biggest takeaway at the end of today,
not necessarily the end of tomorrow or like the end of the year.
But the takeaway for the story for me at this exact moment
is that no matter what happened,
whether like the full tinfoil hat, like fucking, is that no matter what happened,
whether like the full tin foil hat,
like fucking, there was a laser that came
and you know, Dr. Evil like killed him
and his body was vaporized or he was doubled
with a duplicate and now he's living on the Virgin Island,
like whatever bullshit.
Or like this guy was like,
I don't wanna do this and kill himself,
like whichever scenario in which you believe is real, the horrifying thing to me is that this is a guy who is like
Super Villain-Novell evil. Like one of the worst people we have on record ever.
Like he's worse than Charles Manson. I think you can objectively say from a utilitarian
ethics point of view. This is one of the worst people we've ever like seen.
Yeah. And that a country has sophisticated technologically
and as advanced in its level of nationwide discussions
in the media or from political figures,
can't bring this to a satisfactory end
and whether that be through the levers of money
and political power and blackmail
or through the levers of money and political power and blackmail or through
the levers of sheer in like stupidity is infuriating.
And it basically to me underlines the fact that not only is this country incompetent and
basically a joke at this point, it's also people know that and have lost complete faith
and are willing to sign up for full conspiracy theories or nihilism.
They just don't care because they didn't expect it to work out anyway.
And that is a state that which is unsustainable to build a society, especially a society when
we're at the crossroads that we're at, like to get people to believe that we could switch
from fossil fuels who believe that we couldn't convict Jeffrey Epstein of like fucking
raping thousands of children.
Like to believe that those powers will be able to be spoken to when we can't speak
truth to like one of the worst people that has ever existed and just as
narrow. Like that is so demoralizing to people and that demoralizing thing is
the story to me. It's not necessarily like the specifics will never really know.
But the walk away from that for people is that like who is gonna feel like they can speak
to the NRA and get gone control bass.
Well, I mean, after that.
You know, I mean,
because it feels like nothing's gonna work out.
Like if we couldn't do this, he was in prison
and we couldn't get justice.
Right.
You know what I mean?
But I mean, we're dealing with something similar
with Trump.
I mean, like there's, there appear to be countless things that are,
if not illegal, directly illegal,
are highly unethical and immoral for a president to be doing.
Yet, I just read a story today about how he's trying to get
members of Congress get them banned from entering Israel
because they've made anti-Israel statements. Members of the US Congress, the president of the United
States, is telling the prime minister of Israel to not let them in Israel.
That's fucking crazy. It's crazy.
And so we live in unreal, we live in unreal times. But like, you know, the Epstein,
just to be clear, the Epstein conspiracy theories are the exact conspiracy theories laid out by
David Ike and his seminal classic, The Biggest Secret, which you've heard me talk about millions
of times in this podcast. The biggest secret is the biggest pile of horse shit ever created.
It's literally written by like a former like sports announcer who like came up with a lizard people like grand unification theory. And it is like all the stuff that you're hearing
about QAnon and Jeffrey Epstein like the fake stuff about Jeffrey Epstein because there's real stuff
by the way, real stuff that's actually happened that people have talked about in given statements to
the police about. And that's the shit we should be listening to, not the fucking conspiracy shit.
the police about. And that's the shit we should be listening to, not the fucking conspiracy shit. But the, but this is like the conspiracies that we're hearing are all coming from the same,
essentially the same place, you know, this is like behold a pale horse. This is like the
Illuminati trilogy. This is the theories are always built around like a kernel of truth,
like a kernel of something believable. And then from there, they indoctrinate you.
That's what makes them insane bullshit.
That's what makes them, that's what makes them so believable.
There's always a little bit of, well, yeah, I know that,
that gets you, right?
And then you suck it.
But the reality is, oh, Bush knew the Saudi royal family
and he was with them the day of 9-11.
There's your kernel of truth.
For the extract from that that Jeff F fuel camp melts still beams or whatever.
What's interesting about conspiracy theories is that
it seems to make you feel like you're out of control, right?
Like you're feeling when you hear about a conspiracy theory
is like, oh my God, something is going on.
That is, I can't see and is like the the work of a, you know,
a huge machine that is like doing something.
And I think, but in a way, and we've written a bit about this on the outline
about like how conspiracy theories make you feel and what kind of people are
susceptible to conspiracy theories.
But the reality of it is that conspiracy theories in some way actually are like,
help you order things that are actually disorderly.
You know, conspiracy theories, I mean, that's the thing, is that it would be,
I would love to be a person who believed that there is a secret lizard government under the
earth from Mars and
ancient aliens planted them to control the human race.
So we would be a farm for them because then at least everything would make sense.
And like at least, at least it would feel like somebody is searing the ship as opposed
to like the constant chaos.
And the truth is always a mix of both, which is that like, yes, there are very powerful
billionaires who live completely outside the law and can execute their will in ways we can't imagine for goals and ends that we can't imagine because people who are sociopaths
tend to rise to the top of those positions of power.
But the jump there to like lizard people and the jump there to like Hillary Clinton
ordered a hit on Jeffrey Epstein, like that's a big jump to make without any corroborating
evidence.
And I'm not saying it isn't true.
I'm saying it's a waste of time to talk about it without evidence.
Like there's a reason that like that like in both science and legal
professions, you have to have evidence to prove without like within like a
reasonable doubt that something is true.
And silly and a waste of time to reach right when conspiracy theorists
because it emotionally makes you feel
like you have some level of control or knowledge and you're protecting yourself in some capacity, even if it's just emotionally from the situation as it truly is, which is a mix of chaos and evil,
which sucks, but that's what the upper levels of power are and they've always been.
Yeah, I mean, so it's like, I just think it's important for everybody to take a second
to, you know, to take a beat as it were.
And really, think about, you know, like,
whether or not you believe in the conspiracy
because you think that there is, like,
that there is a, that there is a secret sort of group
of people controlling reality right now. Or if it makes you feel better to think that because what is,
what is actually really scary is to imagine that there is no plan.
And that's the truth of it all.
Like the truth of it is that, you know,
it's actually better if you think that there's something that you like can,
can imagine that's a
purposeful and and thought through sort of plan
But like I don't believe people thought Donald Trump would become president. I don't believe Donald Trump thought he become president
I don't believe that those people were prepared for him to become president
I think that shit was kind of a fucking accident and
We live in a world where like those kinds of accidents happen all the time.
Where like things that seem like they shouldn't happen do happen.
And we can like apply all of these like, by the way, I'm not saying that he wasn't helped by the Russians.
I'm not saying that he wasn't helped by voter apathy.
But like all of that stuff added up to what essentially was like, maybe some people hedged it.
But it wasn't like somebody snapped their fingers and made it so, you know?
I mean, it's the thing of like,
there are people who are currently blaming Russia,
there are people who are currently blaming Trump,
there are people who are currently blaming the Clintons,
there are people who are currently blaming
intelligence agencies, there are people who are,
like blaming a shadow government of lizard people.
All of that being that,
perhaps this isn't a coordinated
effort and people with intense amounts of power and sociopaths who tend to rise to that
level of power in general have similar goals and they don't need to be coordinating with
each other for bad things to happen that benefit them in the short term and in the long term
screw us all.
And you don't need to link them all together
to say like, Trump winning was good for lots of bad people,
but it doesn't mean that they're coordinated outside
of each trying to pull a couple of levels of power
to create enough chaos to get something out of this.
And ultimately the worst case scenario happened.
And it's the same thing with the Epstein thing, which is like,
it's easy to believe that there are billionaires willing to,
with no sense of empathy, willing to go thrill seeking
with another billionaire who happens to be human trafficking.
Like, that's believable.
And to believe that lots of people
from all walks of power,
are willing to do that, is believable.
What's unbelievable is to think that there's like,
that they all get together and they put on robes
and they talk about Zeno and then they sacrifice a child on an altar so that
the blood will choose the next present. Like that's insane. And without evidence, they
make that jump. It's, it's a waste of time. And it's also like demoralizing to whole groups
of people and confusing and frustrating. And it makes it so people don't vote or take
like some sort of action collectively,
which is our only check on that like
unmitigating chaotic power that is currently raining
and lots of little places.
Yeah.
And I don't think it's galaxy brain to be like,
I really don't, to be like in realistic terms,
what we need to walk away from this is,
is that like the system as it works at the moment is broken
and fundamentally sociopathic and fundamentally like
frustrating and we all have to get together
and be like, if there isn't people that we trust at the top
are there people that were more likely to trust?
Like do you think that Elizabeth Warren would be tied
into a pedophile ring?
And if not, wouldn't it be better to get her in the top
or whatever, rather than to be like,
you know, there's nothing you can do.
And also like she's been bought off by the DNC,
like that level of like apathy isn't constructive at all.
And it makes me really worry
because we can't have level-headed conversations anymore.
Yeah, I mean, I'm not saying, I'm not really now
that there's some global conspiracy that led to Jeffrey Epstein's quote-unquote suicide. I'm just saying that like the conspiracy
that the real conspiracy with Jeffrey Epstein is that he was a very rich man allowed to
basically do whatever the fuck he wanted because everybody around him was either enabling him
or turning a blind eye to it. And like the bigger problem in our world is not that like there's another.
Yes, and we know that that happened,
and this is another case of that.
Yeah, and the suicide is just the latest
and the list of horrible crimes
that they let them look the other way.
Exactly, and like that's the most likely truth about it,
is that he got somebody to look the other way
because he didn't want to have to face the shit that he did.
And the reality was he wasn't getting out of this one.
And I'm sure his lawyers were like,
dude, you're not getting out of this one.
Like this is it for you. I mean, his lawyers were like Alan Dershwitz, who was also like, you probably shouldn't get out of this one. And I'm sure his lawyers were like, dude, you're not getting out of this one. Like this is it for you.
I mean, his lawyers were like Alan Dershwitz
who was also like, you probably shouldn't get out of this one.
It'd be good for me, it'd be good for you.
It'd be good for everybody if you didn't get out of this one.
So he was like, all right, I won't.
So I won't get out of this one.
I'll fucking hang myself.
So you know, so anyhow,
but getting back to it is like, look,
we, you know, like we live in an abusive system. And the
system like rewards abusers and it rewards abusers and it dismisses victims. And like,
anyhow, we don't have to talk about every episode for the entire podcast because like,
fuck him. But I do think like what I, what what what what scares me and worries me
is the desire in this,
in our current environment for people to make up fantasy
rather than deal with reality is really scary.
And I know it's exciting, it feels exciting to imagine
things that could be,
but we need to talk about what is.
And like, what is is like,
it's also just laziness.
It's intellectual laziness to be like,
to be like, you know,
there's nothing we can do about it.
The world is inherently filled with evil people.
I need to create a bunker.
It's like much easier to create a little bunker
in your brain and to like be like,
there's nothing I can do.
And like, I'm just gonna enjoy the end times.
Then it is to be like,
what are we gonna do about this so that like,
we don't live in a world where this happens?
Right, like, we actually,
people actually, people actually have a lot more control
than they think they do.
And like, it frankly, it starts with like, who you elect.
Like, the whole point of politicians is to represent you
at levels of power that you cannot personally approach
or like or utilize.
And I will say, I think that there are signs of hope,
but we need to get real.
I mean, look, just know the Chappell people,
just as convinced that there's a Jeffrey Epstein conspiracy,
where Bill Clinton and Trump are whatever
in like a sex call together,
there is just as convinced as the people on the right.
Okay?
And all of them are basically wrong and all of them are basically living in like a fantasy
where the doesn't exist.
The world that actually exists is like one that is like slow and hard and boring for the
most part.
Politics aren't supposed to give you a fucking boner.
Okay?
Your politicians aren't supposed to make you sexually excited or like, you know,
feel like the world is about to change.
They're supposed to do some really, I'm sorry to say boring hard work, which is like sitting
in rooms with like sometimes hundreds of other people trying to agree on like how to create
laws for like all of the people in a country of 300 plus million people.
And like that's not really going to be sexy work.
And if it ever feels sexy, then you should be concerned. Like, so you know, all these people who are
like the conspiracy theorists are also like believe in this kind of like godlike power
of certain politicians. And we really need to like start getting real, which is like, it's
hard work. It takes a long time. And we need to like make sure we elect people who can
like handle the work and know what they're doing. And so it really comes down to the whole thing of,
people will blame a bad economy on the president,
which is realistic because the president
has the ability to wreck things.
But they will then also blame,
it's not getting fixed fast enough,
or good economy on the president,
which is also something that's not within the president's control.
The president could easily break the economy
by doing what Trump is doing, which is tariffs
and tax cuts for the wealthy and destroying the environment.
That's an easy way to break the economy.
To fix the economy took Obama eight years to get it 70% fixed.
Everyone was like, it's not fixed enough and that's his fault.
It's like, yeah, because fixing something and building something and trying to create an equitable
situation is really hard and boring and long and difficult and complex and breaking it is fun and
crazy. You know what I mean? Like burning out a house is so much easier than building a house
and that really does apply across the spectrum of political situations and so it's easy to be like
I'm so engaged with the death of everything. Like I'm so fascinated within the explosion and the destruction.
Like war can be, is action packed and violence is sexy.
And what isn't sexy is like building a financial protection bureau.
And that fundamental problem in an age of reality TV and social media and constant entertainment
and stimulation that people are craving like a serotonin released from every bit of information.
The incentives are so bad.
They're really bad and badly set up.
And this whole Epstein thing is a perfect scenario.
Like it's a perfect encapsulation of like even the well-intentioned people who know how horrible
this is.
And that's almost everybody are unable to focus on the parts of it
that are within our control and are knowable
and are quantifiable and could be fixed
because they're boring.
Yeah, yes, exactly.
And yeah, we gotta get off this.
It's bumming me out.
We should talk about things that are way lighter
and way less meaningful.
Well, there's two shootings this week.
Oh, I don't wanna get into the shooting. I can't get into the week. Oh, I don't want to get into the shooting.
I can't get into the shootings.
I mean, what I wanted to say about the shootings is frankly, like, I, the 30 to 50
Ferrell Hogs thing, I guess, was people silver lining there.
Like, they found a way to laugh.
But what, what, the thing about the shootings is, I don't want to talk about it because
there's nothing left to say.
There's nothing left to say.
It's very simple.
There is no need gone control. There's no say. It's very simple. There is no...
We need gun control.
We don't have it.
There is no, I mean, literally...
Like it's not video games.
No, no, no, no.
We're in like a parody zone now with like Walmart.
It's like we're gonna take a down ads of violent video games
in our stores.
It's like, yes, yes, take down the ads of violent video games
that are near the rack where you sell AR15s.
Definitely do that because that's going
to be the thing. That's the triggering point for people, not the fucking access to the
gun. It's very clear.
And the level of defending that, there are people in comments, sections raging that Walmart
beer-leaving sells guns. They only sell hunting equipment and the only place they sell hand
guns is in Alaska. And it's like, that doesn't bother you that they do sell handguns somewhere or that
they do sell hunting equipment.
Listen, if I'm sorry, Walmart's business hinges on their selling of guns and they should
go out of fucking business.
If that's it, like they're not a gun seller, like that's not their job.
I mean, if that's what their their service to a community is to sell guns, and they can't
get the steam of business about it. to a community is to sell guns and they can't just go and get rid of this thing. Like if Guns are freed up with the same delicacy
by a corporate entity that cheeseballs
and fucking a copy of BioShock is,
that's crazy.
But this isn't about Walmart actually.
And I think Walmart unfortunately has become
the focal point of this and people calling on Walmart
to stop selling guns.
Like that's actually not the fucking problem.
The problem is the laws in this country
that protect guns and gun makers over human beings.
And like, that's it.
It's very simple.
No other country is like this.
No other country has laws like this.
No other country protects people's rights
to not only be able to purchase weapons
of like purposely built, like meant for
shooting large groups of people or things at once.
But it protects their rights to do so in a way where they don't have to ever, no one
ever has to really question them about it.
Like, it's, this is a, it's a American disease.
It has a solution that is obvious.
And we have not been able to arrive at that solution because the lawmakers in power are
scared to death of these fucking gun companies and the money
that they spend on lobbying to keep them
from making these laws.
The NRA is a terrorist organization,
it should be shut the fuck down.
The gun makers should be tremendously penalized
by the government.
And we should basically be doing everything we can
in our laws to prevent almost anyone from getting a gun.
Like, you need to have a really fucking good reason
to have a gun.
Like, and need to be like, you need to go through
an enormous amount of checks to get the gun.
Because here's the thing.
You go through more checks to get a car.
Yes, here's the thing.
Like, we're the only country that has a similar sort of,
economic makeup and societal makeup like America, were these kinds of, maybe the only really in the world, were these kinds of
rampant shootings are a regular occurrence, were the only country in the world, where there
is a, we're not the only country in the world where this is happening, but we're one
of the leading countries, if not the leading country, where there is a strain
of white Christian American terrorism
that has been brewing, white supremacist,
Christian American terrorism.
I don't know if, frankly, maybe Christians
are wrong word to use.
I don't actually know the religious leanings
of these people, I just know that they're fucking racist.
And that is like, by the way, a strain that exists all over the world,
but only in America do we have shooting after shooting,
after shooting after shooting,
where these fucking white guys kill dozens of people
and babies and families and women and men.
And we act like this is just how it is.
You know, we treat it like we treat terrorism
of other strains because these people use Christianity
as a window dressing
and people can identify with that
so they don't wanna think of it on the same scale as ISIS.
That's right, we have ISIS in this country.
It's young white men, young frustrated white men
who believe based on what they are hearing
from their leaders often, but also what is being spread
on the internet and in other forums,
based on the fear of like erasure, basically.
And like these people need to be,
they need to be treated like ISIS.
Like these, I'm sorry.
Like, dude was spelling drump with handguns
and posting it on social media.
Here's the reality.
The Ku Klux Klan, any group that is a white supremacist
group should be blown the fuck to pieces by the authorities.
They should be, people should be put in jail for being part of them.
They should be definitely none of the people associated with them should be allowed to
have any kind of weapons whatsoever.
Every one of their fucking compounds should be fucking rated and searched.
It's like, that's what we do if they were fucking terrorist cells in this country and they
were Muslims.
And there are.
Yes.
That's what I'm saying.
So however you treat the Muslim terror cells
is how you need to treat the white terror cells
because that's what the fuck they are.
And like,
But did you see, I mean, there was a leak of Trump's like FBI,
CIA priority list.
And at the top of it was black extremists.
And at the top of it was Muslim terror cells.
And all the way down at number 17 was white,
like young white male conservative terrorists.
But we know that's because we elected
its white supremacist to be president.
And if he was like a bit or like pretty racist before,
but like in a kind of New York way,
being president, being surrounded by people
who are legit racist, who have agendas
has made him like a full-on-
I'm not even more legit. It's just like more honest and every time he gets more honest about his racism.
No, I think I think Trump, I'm not defending him, but I think Trump was racist in a way that was like,
he was racist personally and he was racist in his business practices, but those had no impact on
like humanity. Like they really didn't, except the people who had to encounter Trump and his businesses, right?
It wasn't like Trump had any ability to impact
how people live or laws.
Now, that same method of thinking has attracted people
who have actual agendas, and now he has the power
to put their agendas into practice,
and it's not necessarily Trump,
I'm sure actually doesn't think he's a racist.
I actually think that Trump probably legitimately
considers himself not a racist.
Yeah, he probably thinks he's a quote unquote realist
because he truly bereaves racist things
and he thinks they're facts.
He definitely believes in extremely racist ideas
and he agrees with white supremacists.
And he is, by the way, a white supremacist, but like, as a kind of,
by proxy of his, not like because he's like, I'm going to get a fucking,
you know, swastik attitude in my back. He's like, this is how I feel about other people
with different colored skin from different countries. That's just like,
by proxy of his existence and his upbringing, he has white supremacist like thought baked into his brain.
Now he has people around him who are like,
hey, here's a policy that kind of like pushes this
into like society.
And he's like, yeah, that makes sense to me.
He's like, yeah, like, like pinning on the immigrants
makes sense to me, like black extremists
as being the big threat makes sense to me.
Because like his worldview is fucking distorted
by like whatever like brain disease was given to him as a child.
Anyhow, we live in a very depressing time and it's very upsetting, but we've got to believe
that the Galaxy Note 10 is going to fix all of our problems.
Yeah, this Galaxy S10 and Galaxy Note 10, I got something to say about them.
Damn.
I really like the design.
I think they're pretty as hell.
I love that they're pink and holographic
Lisa Frank devices.
Oh yeah, I got that.
That's the one I got.
I'm pretty stoked on the whole concept.
And Apple's gotta make some bold moves this fall
if I'm gonna stay on the old boring fucking notch train.
Yeah, I mean, here's the deal.
You're not going anywhere because of I message
and frankly, neither am I.
Can't wait to start reviewing phones again.
So I don't have to order everyone.
Nightmare.
The fact that you ordered the phone is so I was like, I went to bed the night of the
announcement.
I'm like, I was like, kind of like, yeah, should I get one?
I'm like, now this is a waste of money.
I don't need this.
Why would I want this?
And then I woke up the next morning, like the first thing I did literally while
laying in bed was ordered the phone.
Like there's something I was like, no, I'm gonna get it.
That's really very wrong with me.
Listen, it does, I don't know why,
I don't even know why I want it.
It's just, it's like,
the world is a dumpster fire
and there's a shiny cool little phone
and it's like, I'll take it.
Basically, basically.
Anyhow, I don't even know what it does that's special.
It doesn't seem like anything.
It just looks cool, I guess. You know, I don't know. I it does that's special. It doesn't seem like anything. It just looks cool, I guess.
You know, I don't know.
I got a bunch of freebies when I ordered it
because I like pre-order it because I had...
How much total did it cost you off contract?
Well, actually, so I had,
I bought the Galaxy Note 9 last year.
So I'm getting a $600 rebate for that or $600 credit. And so the phone was like a
thousand. I got like the $256, not the 512 because it's got whatever. The total cost was like
$500, including I got wireless earbuds with it that were like thrown in. I got $200
credit for like other stuff and a case. Yeah, so it was like, it was like $500 total.
Buying a phone has truly turned into buying a car where you're like, they're like, we'll
put in a heated cup holders and you're like, yeah, it's a deal. I can't refuse.
I financially, I have to get it. Yeah. Yeah. I was like, well, it's a deal. I can't refuse. I financially, I have to get it.
This case.
Yeah.
I was like, well, $200 and free stuff that I don't need.
I was like, I already have wireless ear buds.
I was like, but maybe this would be good.
I'll check them out.
It's good to have a second pair.
You never know when you're going to lose yours.
I definitely equivocated.
I was like, definitely.
Oh, yeah, this all makes sense.
I should do this.
Anyhow, whatever, it's fine.
I actually do like the note because it's such an outrageous.
It's just such a weird device.
And the stylus is pretty cool on it and it's fun to fuck around with.
And if I'm going to have, I always have at least, even though now I'm a hardcore full-on
iPhone user, I always have one Android phone that I'm carrying with me.
And my Pixel smashed.
The OnePlus 7 is like whatever, it's not that good. The old note is old, so I'm all set now. And then I can switch things up when the pixel comes out.
I don't really, whatever, who cares?
It doesn't matter.
It's a phone.
It's nice.
It doesn't matter.
Like, you know, the question is, what is it going to do for you?
That's different than your other phone.
And the answer is probably nothing.
That's why I've been on the X and I didn't go anywhere from that.
And like, I've been waiting for Apple turn to do a feature that would like change anything
about my day to day life. And I've been on the X and I didn't go anywhere from that.
And like I've been waiting for Apple turn to do some feature that would like change anything
about my day to day life.
And they haven't.
So I like haven't changed phones.
And that is a very different pattern than I was in when I was literally like selling things
I owned and fucking borrowing from Peter to PayPal.
So I could upgrade to get GPS or whatever.
Yeah, right.
GPS has now come standard on all these devices.
Yeah.
Which I think is really nice.
They're like, well, the new one's slightly larger
and a little bit lighter.
I'm like, OK, but I'm not going into debt over this anymore.
I'm like in my 30s.
Yeah, that's the right move.
I think that's the right move.
So anyhow, I mean, you know, it's fine.
I mean, phones are not going gonna change for a while now.
There's not gonna be some new functionality
of your device that happens.
Like, it's gonna be a long time
before that becomes a thing.
And we are on, we are plateauing on
what you need to really know or think about
to make it an informed purchase on a phone.
At this point, it really cuts two ways. Do you need I message or not? Well, it's like a phone, you know. At this point, like it kind of, it really cuts two ways, like, do you need I message or not?
Well, it's like a car, every sedan at the moment
is the same and it's like, do you want an electric one,
do you want a hybrid one, do you want to use a lot of gas?
Yeah, I mean, I do very similar cars.
I would actually say the electric factor is a major,
like could be a major, one, when it's adopted
and done with like the right amount of range
for most standard vehicles,
like the electric option is a major.
But I mean, like if you go out today,
like my dad just went out and was like,
I need a new car.
And when he was looking at cars,
he had a couple of asks like functionality wise
that he needed.
So it was like, I need to get an SUV rather than a sedan
and I would prefer a pickup truck,
but there's no like fuel economy version of that.
So he went out and he looked and they were all very similar. So he was just like I'll get the one that like
I like the front of it and he loves cars, but they're all so similar at this point like
that you just choose from like a genre like do you want the large one or do you want the handheld one?
Do you want to have Android or iOS? How much storage do you need? Right. They're all the same otherwise. That's right.
I mean, you know, yes, that's basically true.
And so anyhow, the long and short of it is,
I ordered the Galaxy Note 10 Plus.
And now there's like two of them to annoying.
I get the bigger one, because what am I going to do?
You know? Yeah. Not have the bigger one? Not have the bigger one? I mean, basically I do the bigger one because what am I going to do? You know, not have the bigger one.
Not have the bigger one.
I mean, basically I did a size comparison.
It's about the same sizes.
The other Galaxy Note I have.
So this is all really good and important stuff.
You can read the review on input mag dot com soon.
Well, in other news, do you want to talk about equinox? But I
think I have other a different perspective on it. I can talk about equinox, but like,
I mean, equinox is soul cycle as we know are owned by a big Trump supporter who's doing
fun. You see even Ross doing fundraisers for a little listen,
I'm just happy to own a peloton, you know, I feel good about the investment.
I hope that the peloton people aren't into Trump.
That would be a real bummer.
I think they missed an opportunity for a great tweet.
You know, I haven't heard about, I haven't heard about any peloton tweets yet, but-
New York's birth club did a pretty solid tweet because the big the big carnivores
is SoulCycle, but like, I know there's a really.
Oh, really?
I felt like the big controversy was Equinox because especially living in a bubble of I only
talked to gay people.
Equinox is really, really big in like the wealthy coastal gay male seat.
Like it's like a, it's like an essential brand. Well, yeah
Well, I feel like soul cycles also for like like Hillary Hillary
Yeah, I was gonna say it's for like white women. Yeah, like Hillary supporters though
But the thing is is I guess the thing that gets me okay
So he's doing fundraising he owns all these brands that people who wouldn't want to give Trump money
Subscribe to and they're frustrated and they're
talking about a boycott and then there's the people talking about there's no ethical consumption
under capitalism anyway and people are like you all couldn't even stop going to Chick-fil-A
like what makes you think you're gonna stop doing this and blah blah there's a whole but
what gets me and I think the thing that really pissed me off and I didn't really see discussed
and con honestly didn't want to be the person to talk about because I just was too exhausted by the whole thing.
Was there's this group of wealthy, I don't want to say like Neo Libs because I'll sound very chapo,
but there's a group of wealthy people who are liberal because they understand fundamentally
that that makes sense. That like crushing the poor and taking away the rights
of minorities is bad, got it.
That's good, you that you understand that.
But they also don't ever wanna be inconvenienced by that
and they don't wanna be inconvenienced.
They want the benefits of being a wealthy elite
that goes to a gym that won't let the filthy pores in
because then you can have eucalyptics towels
and jerk each other off in the steam room
and nobody, when a homeless person's gonna bumble
in like a plan of fitness.
Like they understand that they are reaping
the benefits of elitism without having,
with also like hypocritically having the rhetoric
of like I'm for all the people,
but this gym costs $100 a month
and I can afford it and I deserve it
and I don't wanna deal with gross people.
And quote unquote.
And as someone who at one point signed up for Equinox
because I didn't think critically about it,
I just was doing kind of the like,
that's what everybody does thing.
That place has been ugly and fucked up for a while
in the way that a lot of those elitist clubs are.
Like Equinox is not a gym, essentially.
It's a place with gym equipment,
but it is truly more like so-ho house
than it is like a planet fitness.
Because you go there for the social aspect of it
and knowing that you'll only be with other wealthy people
from the Upper West Side or whatever,
and you can all relate on that level
and everyone's gonna quote unquote behave
in the code of conduct that rich people have decided.
Yes.
And what's gross to me is that to see,
and it's mostly white gay cisgender men, furious,
and trying to hold this company to account
without thinking critically about
how their actions led to them supporting a place
that is incentivized to support oppression
and a billionaire like olivarchy.
Right, right. And I mean, it's not, it's not like it's impossible to have a gym to support oppression and a billionaire like olivarchy. Right.
Well, but I mean, it's not, it's not like it's impossible to have a gym that caters to
like, you know, a certain type of person that isn't necessarily, I mean, like, I mean,
there, it is possible.
There are places that cater to women like, like, I don't know, a curves, curves.
Yes, curves.
Yes. like a... I don't know, a curved, curves. Yes, curves.
Curves exists to market itself
towards a certain kind of social class.
And to market itself to a certain mindset of people,
which is female people, female identifying people,
who have a certain level of income
and want a certain kind of experience.
And it's also accessible that it's not like,
you can get in a curve.
Equinox, the core promise of that in soul cycle
is that it's so expensive, which means it must be good.
And it's a status symbol.
And the worship of these status symbols,
uncritically, is the thing that like,
you're, it invariates me.
Like you, you can't, you can't want a vacation at Mar-a-Lago.
And then be frustrated that it's owned by like a psychopath.
I believe the, I believe the expression is you can have your cake and eat it too.
Yes. Yeah.
And by that, I mean assholes in a steam room.
So it gets to a, a larger question about class and, and, and, you know and the kind of ways
that we divide ourselves along,
sort of tax brackets and,
but like look, it's fair that not everybody
wants to be around everybody else,
and that goes for anybody, anywhere.
Like, it's fine to want to be with who you want to be with.
There's a difference between a gay, dive bar
and an exclusive club
owned by Anderson Cooper's boyfriend
that is if $90 cover charge and you go in there
and it's all white people.
Is that exist?
Is that exist?
It's called Atlas Social Club.
It's on the upper west side.
Oh, that sounds nice.
They've got more dive barry in recent days.
Sure.
But like, because frankly, the that group of people
that clientele gets exhausted on like flash in the pan brands
and Equinox had a strangle hold on that market
that a bar wouldn't.
But this is what you're describing
is basically meat, okay?
Everyone wants to eat meat.
No one wants to think about where it comes from, okay?
No one wants to imagine the animal getting killed.
Like you like animals that are really cute.
You probably don't want them to be killed
and you probably don't think about them being killed.
You don't want your dog or your cat to be killed,
but like make no mistake about it.
Very cute animals are killed all the time
so you can have a fucking piece of veal.
And no one wants to think about it or look at it
or have to confront it or deal with it
when they're putting the delicious food in their mouth.
Just like when you're at equinox,
doing whatever it is you're doing at equinox,
you don't want to think about the fact
that maybe equinox exists because people like Stephen Ross wanted
to create a safe space for people like Stephen Ross, and adjacent folks.
But that's the entire order of all of our existence.
The hardest core of hardcore socialists hopes to blow up is that entire concept, right?
Which is like a lot for people to think about and to kind of take stock of and to process.
And frankly, the way it is now, most people on the top are in the middle top, don't want it to change.
Well, it's like Joe Biden's, Joe Biden's dead at a fundraiser.
Like I'm not going gonna dream shape society here.
I just want things to go back to, quote unquote, normal.
And like, normal is what God is,
like, there's no normal after this.
We got here based on the normal
that you guys were pushing for so long.
Like, we don't go back to like Obama era.
Obama era in its own way was good in a lot of ways,
but it also created a situation that allowed for all of this.
And we can't go
back to that because we'll just be back where we were again. Like if we elect Joe Biden,
we're just going to get another Trump eventually. I mean, I'm more concerned with, like, I'd
rather that than another Trump. I mean, I'm more concerned with like elect electing Joe
Biden, not because like of things won't change, but more like he seems more senile now than Trump and like I mean there's
Obviously lots of problems with Joe Biden, but I mean his constant gas
He literally is calling all like Teresa. He called Teresa may like Margaret Thatcher like several times
Like why does his campaign ever led him out of the basement that he's like locked?
I mean, I mean, I think it's like this. I mean, you know, every time they do, it's an embarrassing thing.
I didn't think it's like, I just think it's like this.
It's like, you know, when, when he was running for president,
people called him a walking gaff machine.
That was the joke about Joe Biden walking gaff machine.
Now, like that plus senility plus being like,
woefully out of step with so much of what is going on.
That's great. So, so to touch.
And also like, you know, being an old guy
with questionable like views and habits,
like it's all just a not a great combo.
And I can't talk about politics or America anymore.
Can we talk about anything else?
I'm dying.
I'm dying in sort of the listeners.
The ones about to say they're doing
an American crime story about Monica Williams.
No, I can't.
I cannot.
I won't. I don't know what else happened this week
I can't like 20 Morrison died Danny Dre Trejo is saving people from car accident. That was cool
That was cool, but it's not allowed to say about it
The anti-tray house has always been cool. It just he's just cooler now any video games any Wolfenstein came out
Do we talk about this honestly? I haven't I bought it. I've been playing it you know Wolfenstein people hate it
It's like whatever. It's a shooting game. It's not that fun. It's not that bad I haven't, I bought it. Well, what? I've been playing it. You know Wolfenstein? People hate it.
It's like whatever.
It's a shooting game.
It's not that fun.
It's not that bad.
It's like, you want to like burn an hour, like blowin' away some Nazis.
I started watching Inglourious Basterds, which I have to say.
I mean, everybody's like up in arms about the New Terrentina movie, which I haven't seen
yet, so don't say anything.
But Inglourious Basterds is like truly a work of art.
Also, it's so depressing because like, you really make you, like, you know, like,
like, we need to be closer to nottyism as like a general thing. Like, I think we need to
people need to think more about like what notties were and what the people who are white supremacists
in America are representing because like, like, even a relatively lighthearted movie, like
Inglourous Bastards, which is meant to be kind of like camp in a way.
Really, it makes you like think about how awful,
that truly awful like the Nazis were.
And like, I think people need to feel that more.
They need to feel like it's not, there's not like, you know,
some version of that discourse, which is acceptable.
Like, there's no version of it that's acceptable. Anyhow, so I got Wolvenstead.
I did.
That's all, that's it.
I did a stand-up set at my friend Ann Clark's show called
Webcats in Brooklyn.
And it was fun.
It poured, so there wasn't a ton of people there.
But one guy, John Rosenberger, had an amazing joke,
or he was like, my parents escaped the Holocaust,
like my dad escaped the Holocaust.
So I had the right to German citizenship,
which I took, and then proceeded to not think about
for 20 years, and then only then the last few years
have I been like, hmm, I could go to Europe.
And he was like the irony of escaping the Nazis
to go to the US and then escaping the Nazis in the US
to go back to Germany is not lost on me.
Yeah.
And it is such a wonderful, like horrifying.
It's so true.
It's so true.
Oh, one thing actually, totally sorry,
going back to Wolfenstein for a second.
I will say, the game has some really nice touches.
Like it's some, got some detail and some little touches
that are super interesting.
And one of the things is it's set in like 1980s,
but where the world is mostly Nazi-occupied.
And America's not anymore, but the world mostly is.
And so you're in a Nazi-occupied France.
And all the music is like the music is from the 80s,
like 80s music, but it's like
German pop music. And like so they had to like make all of this stuff, which is really interesting.
And there's a lot of like little details of like movies and music and all these things from this
world that it's interesting. I mean, it's like they fleshed out this alternate reality really well,
which I appreciate. I mean, it's also like weirdly horrific,
but I appreciate the concept of wanting to be thorough.
I mean, they put a lot of thought into it.
But the one last news story, and then we can move on
to stuff that's not non-se related.
Universal pulled that movie, the hunt,
that they were promoting.
Yeah, I don't, I'm trying to understand.
Trump didn't like it because why?
I'm very confused about the whole thing.
So the movie is about a bunch of elites
who look like Trump family members,
who every year pull together a bunch of quote unquote,
like, like lower class oppressed people
and then they hunt them for sport.
And then at some point, but they're called deplorables.
So it's like, which is the Trump people?
Is it the people hunting?
The people being hunted?
Is it both?
What's the metaphor here?
It's not clear because we've not seen the movie.
But Trump took offense to it in any event.
And then at some point, like, one of the people being hunted turns around and starts hunting
all the elites.
And that's the premise of the movie.
Because the word deplorables was in the trailer, like he took offense to this, like his fucking Adderall-addled Alzheimer's
brain was like, this is bad. So rather than release it anyway, Universal's pulled the advertising
and now they're pulling the movie entirely from release, like theatrical release. And it's
just fucking insane. And like that tied with Trump wanting to do an executive order to control social media platforms, which he thinks are anti conservative.
I mean, here's the thing. Here's the thing. The problem with, I mean, I mean, all of it's insane. All of it's insane.
But the thing, this, this anti bias, whatever this law, this executive order, it's like, I'm sorry, the top shared news source
on Facebook is Fox News.
Fox News is unabashedly conservative in its coverage.
Like, it's not even a close, it's not even close to.
It's ridiculous.
Like what does he just want them to add 50 million followers
to his count and then help be happy?
I don't know.
Listen, this could be all over really soon, okay?
We could end this.
We could end this in like a year.
In one year, we could end it.
We have to.
Let's band together.
Look, the world is not gonna be like this
after Trump has gone.
Let's go revolution.
I promise.
I promise love.
And let's hear you in Williamson tomorrow.
That's not please, she's the worst.
But I hate to say I'm low to even consider it,
but if it is Joe Biden, even if it's Joe Biden,
the world won't be like it is today.
It won't, it'll just be different, it will be.
Like Joe Biden doesn't have a tweet.
He doesn't even ho Twitter his.
Guys, they've received, guys, they've received a smartphone.
You know what I mean?
Talk about nice things.
Let's talk about happy stuff and get out of it.
Okay, I have like one nice thing.
Okay, I have four.
Just can you trim that down, just do two.
No.
Fine, do all four.
These are actually pretty quick, don't get upset.
I rediscovered the video of Tracy Chapman
performing fast car at Nelson Mandela's 70th birthday
tribute.
Oh wow.
It happened in like 88 or 89 when she was like an unknown musician and she wasn't supposed
to perform and some shit went down with you be 40 or whatever and they couldn't always
always some shit with you be 40.
And all the other acts had such extensive like setups with instruments and like pyrotechnics
and whatever that they were like we can't just do this instantly.
But Tracy Chapman who is like this unknown person who performed for the show off of television
in like a smaller capacity was like I just need a guitar.
So they put her up there and she was like this unknown musician who barely sold any albums
and she performed Fast Car which is obviously one of the greatest songs ever written.
And she's terrified and so scared but she does such a beautiful job in the all of Wembley
Stadium who's never heard this song before,
shuts the fuck up and listens to her with her guitar and it's so beautiful.
And I understand that it's like a trite thing at this point to be like, fast carbidraze jamming and inspiring.
But it actually really is and I was really depressed the other day and it just like got me out of that funk to be like,
you know, success isn't a meritocracy and like she had a cool shit and it happened that this accident allowed her to then have a career after that.
But like, she was also just straight up making cool shit and nobody wanted to listen to it until they accidentally had to.
And it's inspiring and she's a cool ass bitch and that's awesome. So there was that.
Wow. It's great.
I got blood and truth for PSVR and the game by Justin Royaland,
Trover saves the universe, I believe it's called.
They're both VR games for PSVR and they're really good and tight.
And I'm happy not just that those games are exist because they're fun,
but also because for some, by some miracle, PlayStation has been pushing VR still. And it's is still they hasn't become like the move controllers like they actually have belief that this will go somewhere as an art form and they just have created this like tiny
Like I guess like haven for
Video game designers to have a platform where they'll at least break even and try to figure this out before it's like ready for the mainstream. And I really like that. And I'm hopeful that PSVR will
be a part of the PlayStation 5 conversation and that we'll be able to get that next level of
immersion and stuff right eventually. And it will be cool as shit. And anyway, that that was one
thing. The next thing is I bought a Turbo Express
refurbished with a new screen and a...
Wow, welcome to the club.
TurboGraphics 16 EverDrive.
So now I have like a handheld turbo graphics
and it is, oh God, it's heaven.
It's, I, it was very expensive
and I considered buying it for like six months.
I was gonna put it on my wedding registry
and now I have it and I'm so happy. So there's that and then the last thing is the television reality show blown away on Netflix.
It's about glass blowers and it's basically like great British big off but with glass blowers.
Yes, I've been hearing people talk about this.
Blown glass is the ugliest art form and I have no interest in it and I love to the show and I would watch
100 seasons of it. It continues this trend in reality TV
that like Sugar Rush and a few other places have done,
which is the Great British Bake Off model,
which is like a nice community focused competition
of friendly people with fairly good intentions,
doing something that they love,
and they're excited for the chance to do it.
And it's on this spectrum of like Marie Kondo and Queer Eye where reality TV can have drama
and it can be like a human interest piece and it can do good without necessarily like
resorting to people eating cockroaches and vomiting on each other for the chance to like
have Instagram followers.
And that for me because everybody's heard my whole spiel about the evil of reality TV
is like a bright light.
So watch blown away just on the chance that they'll make more stuff like that.
And also, what a great way to be like, you don't need, I can be completely disinterested in a topic.
I can be, it cannot try to manipulate me by going to my worst impulses,
which is like watching people destroy each other
on television, and still be fascinating and engaging.
And that is very hopeful for me.
So those are my nice things from the week.
Wow, I mean, you have a lot of nice things,
and I admire that.
I admire that you are able to keep going.
I'm trying, and I got this pilot late,
and I'm not letting anybody blow it out.
Doing all that's going on in the world.
I have two ish related nice things, really one, kind of three actually.
Whatever, I haven't had a drink since last Sunday.
I've lost five pounds.
I've been sleeping better, I think.
And I don't know, and I've been smoking weed more.
Yes, we need instead of alcohol.
Without drinking, which is frankly,
I couldn't tell you the last time I had weed
where I hadn't had a drink
or wasn't going to have a drink at some point.
So like, we're intermingling the two.
drink or wasn't going to have a drink at some point. So like, we're intermingling the two.
And, you know, like, I don't know, I've been
joined it.
It's like, I'm kind of like clean living.
I can't, like, when I smoke weed now,
I would have realized if I'm sober and then I smoke weed,
I like, I get, I get, I have very dumb,
but kind of amazing ideas.
Oh, same, my tweets are incredible
when I've smoked a little bit of weed.
I came up with like a, what,
here's how I would describe it.
And we might actually cut this, but I came up with,
I came up with a joke, in my mind was like,
a joke told by a bad comedian about Bonho,
but it actually is also kind of a funny joke. Here's the joke. joke told by a bad comedian about Bonho.
But it actually is also kind of a funny joke. Here's the joke.
Oh, did you hear Bonho got canceled?
Yeah, he got you, too.
It's like bad, it's really bad, right?
I was super high the other night
and one of my tweets was like,
real housewives twirl and
then you know how they always do those taglines and the tagline was every day of my life is
like an event because I'm canceled.
That's very good.
Anyhow, so I'm embracing like stoner, a stoner life, hashtag stoner life.
Yeah, because you get to feel like a kid for two hours and then go to sleep.
Yeah.
And that is so much better than drinking because drinking just makes me rage.
Yeah. And I just, I don't know.
I'm sure I'll have a drink in the near future,
like probably in the next six hours.
But it's interesting to experience life
on the other side and I have to say,
you know, the other thing is that you notice
how much other people are drinking when you're not drinking.
Yeah, I become like real, like I'm a fucking Mormon
when other people aren't drinking.
I'm like, hmm, really?
I'm a second glass of wine, interesting.
Like, anyhow, so you get a whole new world view
but I recommend it.
I'm not saying I don't have anything else to say
or anything else that's nice.
I mean, I, I, you know, I'm enjoying the final days of summer.
I feel like summer feels like it's over too quickly. I love i'm like thank god no i love the summer i love the heat i
love the warmth and i don't ever want it to end and that's why i'm moving to
Los Angeles wrong i mean i hope someday
all right all right should we wrap up? we're up bye
bye Well, that is our show for this week.
We'll be back next week with more tomorrow, and as always, I wish you and your family
the very best.
Though I've just been informed that the film about your family hunting people for sport
has been pulled by universal pictures.
