Weekly Skews - Weekly Skews 1/11/22 – “Number One” COVID Cure

Episode Date: January 12, 2022

This week we discuss the latest bleeding-edge COVID treatments emerging from the right, which apparently is taking a whole bunch of Prozac and then drinking pee. Are you feeling owned yet, libs? And speaking of owned, Ted Cruz gets taken behind the woodshed, Fauci throws down, and more.Support the show

out of there y'all welcome back happy skews day to you it is january 11th 2022 i'm trey crowder that's mark aji what's up mark what's up tray uh have you been read about crypto land i've so far stayed entirely out of the crypto waters i don't i can't keep up with all the crypto stuff that's going on. So a bunch of dudes we're going to form a create a, mint a coin,

create a, you know, a crypto coin. And with, by buying into it, what you'd be doing is crowdfunding, buying a libertarian paradise island that all live on together.

Ah, yes. They made a very silly video presentation in which I cannot describe to you accurately that you'll think I'm making it up, but it immediately devolved into like all libertarian escapades to, someone asked what the age of consent would be on crypto land. that's a tough question for libertarians it is age of consent presents a conundrum for a libertarian it does because how can you have a land with no laws but have one important law that everyone thinks is gross yeah just the one law at least you should maybe have yeah so they started deleting everything someone asked will murder be legal there and they didn't have an answer to it so yeah it's like libertarians don't entirely think it completely through or something

Do you remember that really hilarious viral video from the libertarian primary in 2012 where Gary Johnson ends up being the nominee every time? But he's not very popular among them because he's not insane. He just wants to legalize weed. So they have this big debate. And one of the questions goes, should you need a driver's license to drive a car? And Gary Johnson goes, well, I think to operate a motor vehicle, there should be some set of stand. Boom. Some guy goes, what's next?

need a government permission for toast my damn toast in the toaster. It's like, they're wild libertarians, man. There's something else. I feel like the internet loves to, I feel like devolving into an argument over age of consent laws is like a time honored depths of the internet tradition. You know what I mean? They got no answer to the question because they might want the government out of their business, but some of them have teenage daughters. So therein lies the Yeah, it's tough for them.

Yeah. All right. So with us as always as producer, Matt, this is weekly skews. I want to remind you, if you're vaccinated, want to see me live. You can go to well-read comedy.com. Four tickets, information will be in Springfield and then Chicago, Illinois, this weekend. Sure, it'll be nice and toasty there, the sunny, warm climbs of Illinois. But we're going to have a good time.

Hope y'all come out and see us. Plenty other places after that. Well, redcomedy.com. on the show tonight. We're going to be talking about the very latest bleeding edge COVID treatments emerging from the American right, which involved

taking a lot of Prozac and some other drugs I can't hardly pronounce and also they're drinking pee now, y'all. That's right. Drinking pee to own the libs, 2022, am I right? And we've got something that's fun for the whole family. Ted Cruz is getting publicly humiliated by his own kind.

Fauci throws down with some other GOP senators and more. But first, the Daily Dumbass Mac graphic. Tonight's D.D. Elmo for being two PC to call COVID the Wuhan flu. That's right. Here's Tucker Carlson with the latest outrage from Sesame Street. Listen to this segment in which NPR's news division informs us that our long national nightmare is finally over and thank God. Sesame Street has finally hired an Asian-American puppet. Watch.

This year, the show welcomed a new character, electric guitar playing G. Young, the first Asian-American Muppet in its history. I think the sort of genesis of G. Young was accelerated with the rise in hate crimes against Asians this year. Yeah, the rise in hate crimes against Asians

committed by all those Trump supporters. That spurred Sesame Street to get an Asian Muppet, and it spurred NPR to celebrate it. Now, this is a big change. If you remember Sesame Street, there was big bird and cookie monster. They didn't seem to have ethnicities. In fact, that was the point. There was no tribalism on Sesame Street. That's why they used animals, not people.

Not anymore. According to NPR, the ethnicity of the Sesame Street Muppets is the most important thing. And not just on Sesame Street, and all entertainment and art and culture. All right. So a couple things. One, it's weird to me you want to consider yourself a serious intellectual. Like we've talked about them going after Sesame Street probably five times in the past year. I know. It's been doing this show. And it's like how you consider yourself a serious intellectual movement when your arch rival is fucking Sesame Street. Yeah, I know. Yeah, they seem to get really, they get their panties in a real

bunch over Sesame Street all the time. Sesame Street just really digs at them. Like the owning the conservatives. That's what Sesame Street's good at. It's also. funny to me that like I don't know how to put this they're like they're outraged at Sesame Street you know feeling outraged enough to do a thing like it's like like their whole thing is like did we really need this you know and it's like do you really need to give a shit about it do you know what I mean like why do you care at all that there's an Asian Muppet on back in my day, Muppets were blue and ate cookies and sang

songs and counted to 10 and that's it. Yeah, I mean, it's like, it's like such a one-sided fight. It's like, it'd be like if, like, Tupac picking a rap beef with a rapping granny from a Pepsi commercial or some shit. It's totally like it's in balance to a degree

where like very few people watch Sesame Street. They're mostly young children. Also, Jim Henson was a hippie. Public television's programming has always been like, let's be nice to each other and let's be inclusive mr rogers diversity diversity and inclusion have long since been like cornerstones of sesame street you know i mean i remember i watched it when i was a kid when my boys were younger they watched it and i watched it some then uh i didn't

remember that uh sesame street like i remember watching an episode of my boys and they did a boardwalk empire parody like they did sesame street to do parody sketches of like game of thrones and stuff like that, which I haven't forgotten they do that and, uh, you know, pretty rad. Because obviously the kids have no idea throwing us a little bit of a bone there. But yes, there, again, diversity's been a huge, like, um, you know, fundamental building block of what they tried, the message they tried to impart on Sesame Street since forever. So. Yeah. They're two, they're two human hosts when I was a kid were Gordon and Maria and Gordon was

black and Maria was Latina. And, uh, the, uh, also, uh, uh, Of course, there's a straight-up Caucasian Muppet named Julia. I looked it up. And also, of course, Grover's White because he has a confidence to think you can be a superhero when it doesn't even lift, bro. So, what are we doing here? Like, who cares? Like, 30 years ago, the part they've been masked about wouldn't have been the fact

she's Asian unless she plays an electric guitar because she's going to, like, get your kids to love the devil's music or some shit. So, like, it's just, I don't know, man. I say this unironically. Grow the fuck up and stop watching Sesame Street. You work at Fox News. Absolutely. All right, but so Tucker Carlson, just the worst, right?

Well, maybe not literally the worst. I know you're thinking, like, how could Tucker Carlson possibly come out on the right? How could Tucker Carlson ever do anything that I enjoyed? Well, you failed to consider him having Ted Cruz on the program. So let's, uh, called this a terror attack when by no definition was it a, terror attack. That's a lie. You told that lie on purpose, and I'm wondering why you did. Well, Tucker, thank you for having me on when you aired your episode last night. I sent you a

text shortly thereafter and said, listen, I'd like to go on because the way I phrased things yesterday, it was sloppy and it was frankly dumb. I don't buy that. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. I don't buy that. Look, I've known you a long time since before you went to the Senate. You were a Supreme Court contender. You take words as seriously, as any man who's ever served in the Senate, and every word you repeated that phrase, I do not believe that you use that accidentally. I just don't. So, talk. He goes on to say, you were, you talked about who you were, you were, you were, the short list of

the Supreme Court, which is really funny, because I was living in Texas when Cruz was a solicitor general there. And his big case arguing from the Supreme Court was Texas had passed an anti-sex toy law. And he was in front of the Supreme Court arguing there's no constitutional right to jerk off. that was Ted Cruz's big career break. I mean, so to be clear, like, well, first of all, this was very effective. Ted Cruz really got just full on whipped into, you know, bending the knee by this. They're just, they got ripped up into a fervor over his comments.

He had to go on Twitter, make a big apology, all this stuff. And so that's what's fun is watching Ted Cruz. Grovel, but of course, just to be entirely clear, I fully feel that what Tucker Carlson is saying here is also very stupid, in my opinion. It's good to see him like dunking on Ted Cruz, but the foundation of the argument, of course, I ain't with. I don't, if you look at the literal definition of the word terrorist, you know, it's using like, I'm just making it up off the top of my head, but like using active violence in order to coerce a people or a government into doing what you want to see done, essentially, to get your ideology reflected through using

violence. I don't know how you could describe January 6th in any other. I mean, there's a bunch of other ways, but that one certainly fits. So just for the record. Yeah. You're trying to kill a bunch of politicians to stop the election from being certified. It's a fairly clear definition of political violence, whichever insurrection, terrorism, whatever. I mean, I was reading an explainer that way it doesn't necessarily meet that.

the legal definition of the way federal law is written. But prosecutors are historically very creative when they want to put someone in jail. So I don't necessarily buy that they're following a letter of the law. But yeah, you're right. He did put out a Twitter, Twitter threat apology. There was like just a whole thread of just fucking groveling. Even though you're right, he is right. He could have just defended himself.

But the second video of him on Tucker is even worse. Just watch this fucking weasel squirm because it's really enjoyable. violence against cops and you and i both agree if you commit violence against cops you should go to jail yeah but you're not a terrorist you know you're not you're a guy who you know who assault a cop okay so that's there's a there's a there's a legal difference as you well know better than i do since you were actually in the running for the supreme court and there's a moral difference between a guy the the reason i use that word is for a decade i've used that word for people that violently assault cops. I use that word all in 2020 for the Antifa and BLM terrorists that assaulted

cops and firebomb police cars. But I agree. It was a mistake to use the word yesterday. Because the Democrats and the corporate media have so politicized it, they're trying to paint everyone as a terrorist and it's a lie. And by the way, I've spoken out vocally against your exchange you just had. They want to paint us as Nazis. Yes. That is what they're trying to do. the first part of this what Tucker is talking about like you're just assault at a cop

it's not terror the thing about terrorism is just like difference between manslaughter and murder the point is the intent of where you're right right it's not the act itself

yeah what result are you trying to achieve with the act right like you blow if you if you set off a pipe bomb in a dumpster because you're fucking around

with your buddy is just a teenager redneck fucking around if you set up a pipe bomb in a military recruiting station you're going to get a different get hit with a different charge

so these guys are all pretending to be dumber than they are, which is their whole fucking job. Also, just how, like, how terrified of Tucker Carlson is Ted Cruz? Do you know what I mean? Like, just getting just horsewhipped by him live on the air with no shame whatsoever. Like, his constituents can't make him do a damn thing.

You know what I mean? But Tucker Carlson says jump and he laces up his Georgia. It is, like, dignity is not even the wrong word for this, but, like, we've talked about this before. like everyone sees themselves the protagonist to reality and like actually they're going to live forever and the most important thing in the universe is their their fulfillment or advancement like Ted Cruz wouldn't jump on a grenade to save his buddies because he thinks he's destined to be president right so I can't imagine I don't understand why he still thinks he still thinks he has to do this dance routine to keep his job and maybe move up but like the idea that like nothing is worth no amount of debasement is worth standing up like he wants to be commander chief and won't defend his own fucking wife, right? These are the same people humiliated his wife, have humiliated

him repeatedly, and he will not be like, you know what, fuck this, I'm coming to your studio talker, and one of us is going to the hospital. You know what I mean? It's just like, stand up for yourself, man. Have some goddamn pride. There's got to be a bottom to this, right? Yeah, but to stand up for yourself, you need to have a spine, and Ted Cruz is a noted

invertebrate. Someone dug up a list of stuff he said about, like, if you watch him backtrack solely for the last year, when he thought, like, because there were a moment, because the biggest obstacle with him becoming president is Trump, right? So January 6th presided an opportunity for a clean break. January 7th, I've got this graphic from MSNBC, Matt. January 7th, they called a despicable act of terrorism.

January 8th, yesterday's terrorist attack was a horrific assault in a democracy. January 8th, we saw terrorist attack on the United States Capitol. May 28th, January 6 terrorist attack at the Capitol was a dark moment in nation's history. He was still on, he's been calling a terrorist attack consistently for the past year. now he's on TV trying to bend over and put his head in his own asshole to get out of a thing he said repeatedly. Just like have some dignity, man. I know. And that's what I'm saying.

It's like that's what makes him just such the worst is because like in this one particular thing, he is right. Like he is the correct one here. And yet because of the way he's handling it all and just ingratiating himself to the media overlord. at Fox News and just in front, you know, full view of the conservative nation and everything, he still comes out looking like just the most sniveling, greasy, you know, pathetic worm you could imagine in the halls of Congress. It's not even working because like everyone still like, like, here's a, here's a clip of Trump's former whatever in the White House, Sebastian Gorka.

if you have that clip Matt if you show a short chunk of it I don't care I just tweeted one thing Grant I'm done I am done with Ted Cruz he always made me feel a little bit hinky I know he's super smart

he went to Harvin Alan Dershowitz said he's one of his brightest students but what he did fucking Nershowitz when he said terrorist really grandmother yeah and and then

And Matt, like, so this is the context where, like, what was it Jim Acosta said? I'm in a note here. Anyway, see, oh, he called him, Jim Hoss and carried him to reek from Game of Thrones. Anderson Cooper described him as, quote, assuming the position, and then pathetic was trending on Twitter. And this is Matt Gates' attempt to defend Cruz as his friend. So, check this up. The establishment will never love you, Ted. you know you can you can you can you can bend over uh at bended knee for them uh but they're

they're just not going to love you i think that was maybe an effort all right by the good senator who we do so bend over at bend in knee are two different metaphors they are yeah yeah he worked in both of them so it don't matter front front back whichever one you're presenting to them they're still listen they're always going to hate you there's just not much you can do ted and you're right it's like it's him that's him trying to like make him feel better or whatever, giving some encouragement. We actually, this last clip, it's had the intent of effect. You don't need to show it, Matt, because I'll just, because it's too much context to

explain the conspiracy theory. But he did what he's supposed to do, and he's fully, he's behaving like a whip dog. He spent a day at a congressional hearing about January, about January 6th, interrogating the FBI about whether or not, there's a guy with the oathkeepers who was a federal informant, who's cooperating. It's not clear whether they're saying he was a federal informant before. hand, so it therefore helped lead the insurrection on behalf of the FBI. It's from a misreading of charging documents, but they're still leaning into it.

And Ted Cruz, again, was Solicitor General of Texas and went to fucking Harvard Law School or or the Yale, whatever he went. He understands that a recharging document, so he's being an idiot. So, yeah, they beat him into submission, like, just like Reek from Game of Thrones. There you go. So Reek ended up having some dignity at some points. Right. Yeah.

There will be no redemption for Ted Cruz. Yeah. All right. our next honorable mention for Daily Dumbass, all these people out here who are focusing on Ted Cruz and terrorists and what was it, was it not, when it comes to January 6th, instead of focusing what really matters, the size of the crowd that day. That's right.

Here's Donald Trump crawling out of his whole. I think was going beautifully. And then the election got rigged and stolen from the American people. And by the way, that's the reason they went in massive numbers. They don't cover the numbers of people. They always show the Capitol with a very small, just a tiny percentage of the people that were there. They never show helicopter pictures of that incredible crowd

because it was the largest crowd I've ever spoken before. I've never had a crowd. I've never seen a crowd that big. It was massive. It was the real number, I won't say, because it'll be a headline. Oh, he exaggerated the number. The real number was over that sacred number.

You know what that number was, right? I do. And I don't even know. I don't know if she does. Yeah. And they don't talk about it. I don't go with it. But I'll tell you, the crowd itself was the biggest crowd I've ever,

and I've spoken before the biggest crowds. The biggest crowd I've ever spoken by far, by numerous times, I think. And nobody ever shows the pictures of that. They show me speaking, but they never show who I'm speaking to because they don't want. That was anger over a rigged election that got that many people to go to D.C. I think we get it. Yeah, so it's funny to me because on the one hand, And it was all FBI and Antifa.

Right. But the other hand, look how many of them there were. Yeah. So many Antifas showed up. They're to support me, but try to overthrow me, but also we didn't do it, but look how powerful the force we were. Yeah. Yeah.

I, for one said, I want one of the, I know what he's doing, but I want one of his supporters to diagram what they think he's saying. Right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Now, um, what, do you have any idea when, when, when he talks about the, the, the sacred number in the middle there?

Do you have any idea what that is about? No, not at all. Is that just being ridiculous and it's absurd and doesn't make any sense? Or is that some kind of like, I don't know, a reference they would understand, I guess? He gets his news from his aides printing stuff off like obscure right wing blogs or Q&on adjacent. And Q&ONs really into like numerology and Gamutria stuff. So it's possible there's some sort of sacred number that he's referencing that he read somewhere that he doesn't know. But yeah, I don't know.

I know of no sacred number. Yeah. And the way he said, he was like, you know the number. And she was like, yeah, yeah, yeah, I do. And I'm not, I'm not convinced that she knows the number either. I mean, like, I'm just guessing for 20, 69. I don't know. What you think is important?

Yeah, there you go. All right. Our next arm will mention all of us libs for forcing these good God-faring Christian conservatives to talk about wainers and sex and stuff. apparently. Here's Sarah Palin. This is Sarah Palin, Mark? Yes. She's still out there doing it. I had no idea. Still out there doing it. Let's have it, Matt.

Those things that have to do with privacy and sex, the liberals, not the conservatives, are the one who pound, pound, pound after that. Got that right. Sarah Palin. Out here, pounded in these streets and in the streets and in the sheets, am I right? The context for that. What we do. We are the sex, but we are the sex, you know, side.

We're the side of sex. Sure. The context of that was. Any kind of you want to do. Yeah. It's all good. Fox, Fox News went crazy last week because AOC was in Miami hanging out with her boyfriend without a mask on an outdoor restaurant.

And there seems to be this like, if you, like, when I was home, I saw people that seem to assume like everything is closed here in New York or whatever, but like you can eat outside with a mask without a mask in L.A. New York, every city in America as far as I know. But like, what, how are you supposed to, to not? I mean, talking about specifically at a restaurant, you're there to eat food. Yeah. Literally, how are you supposed to do that with the mask on?

You're supposed to just put it down and put your, you know, etamame, I assume liberals are into your mouth and then put the mask back up. Like, yeah. Yeah, so, uh, so they went crazy and it became a meme. Like, she's either a hypocrite or she fled to the free state of Florida. That was a thousand of the way of putting it. And she essentially just tweeted, like, why are you guys so obsessed with me? Like basically accused them when to have sex with her.

So that was the kind of context for us. She's yelling about liberals always talking about sex. When we've talked this before, but the reason Fox News is so obsessed with the 400th most important congressperson is purely because one, she calls herself a socialist, which is scary. And two, she's pretty looking at what she's two ways to get the grandpa's all rolled up, right? So she's not wrong. So, yeah, there you go. That was AOC's turn in the bucket with Sailor Palin talking about. about pound, pound. Liberals always don't want, we don't want to talk about sex,

but liberals always pound, pound, pounding away. So there you go. Pounding and pounding. That's right. Yeah, AOC and Sesame Street, man. Nothing gets them quite as riled up as those, those two, uh, that odd coupling. Um, all right. So final, I believe our, yes, our final honorable mention for, uh, daily dumb ass is Dr. Fauci's screaming pillow, the pillow he screams into at night for not being prepared for the hearing he recently had. with some GOP centers. I don't know how this man maintains a level of composure that he still manages to do.

But let's watch the first clip here. You are totally incorrect. Well, we look forward to reviewing it. Senator Marshall, Dr. Fauci has answered you at his public information, and he's happy to give it to you if you would ask. Senator Moran. What a more. if you guys couldn't hear that on the mic after the after you know the dialogue has ceased on the mic you can hear fouchy go what a moron

jesus christ that senator he's from kansas i can't remember his name right now but he was he was trying to ask fouchi if he would disclose his financial investments just like senators and congress people have to do and he goes i do file a financial disclosure you can just look it up and he goes like well i couldn't find it so fouchy's trying to be like go to the website go to the fucking website probably a lot of things you can't find you dip shit what don't mean they're not there he's like i will send it to you do you want me to send it to you and it's like it's like they went round around circles and dumb shit like that all day but yeah because like the the guy tried to filter it through big tech is censoring your financial disclosure it's like

you don't you don't know how to google so you're blaming google i don't know what the fucking it's The whole thing is the most. Yeah. The whole hearing was nuts. Fouchy and Rand Paul got into it again. Fouchy correctly pointed out that Rand Paul, every time Rand Paul berates him in front of Congress, the bunch of lies, he gets a lot of death threats. He has to travel personally. Him and his family both have personal security. And that led to this, which Fauci owns it pretty good here. Why would Senator want to do this? So go to, ran Paul website and you see fired Dr. Fauci with a little box that says, contribute here. You can do $5, $10,

$20, $100. So you are making a catastrophic epidemic for your political gain. So the only thing that you have politically attacked your colleagues and in a politically reprehensible So

are those donations are that they just just go to Ram Paul or his campaign or whatever or is there some like a specific pot that's like the Fire Fauci fund that he actually goes into it's literally just click this button to Fire Fauci and they just write Ram Paul a check and that's how it works. Yeah, that sounds about right. Yeah, like Fauci is not perfect. I'm not like whether or not, I mean, it just really hits for me.

He talks like Tweety Bird. Yeah. He just will never, I'll never not appreciate that. that. But yeah, the whole thing, like, there's lots of crazy shit happen in that hearing. That same, people asked a bunch of bullshit. People ask them about Ivermectin. Again, we're a year and a half of bitch talking about fucking horse steam rumor. But in honor, Bama losing the title game, let's talk about their Senator Tommy Tuberville. Hit this video, Matt, if you got it.

I just got a simple question of all of you up there. And whoever wants to answer this? If you have a problem and you, coordinates, who do you go to? Who is the head coach of this virus? You have to go to, whether it's in administration, whether it's one of you, Dr. Foucher, who do we go to? The person who's in charge of that is Jeff Seines. In a White House? At the White House. And we meet very, very regularly. The entire medical team is... Who's the head of the... If you had to... So, what kind of defense would you say the virus is

running here, Dr. Fauci. We got a cover two situation more of an old school 46. What are we looking at here? What can we do to fill the A gap against this deep? I'd just prefer if we could keep this hearing to just football terminology only. I appreciate that. Is there a Hail Mary, perhaps, we could try on this on this? How would the Fires respond to the flea flicker?

Anyway, yeah, go ahead. If the Listers don't knew Tommy Tuberville became famous enough to become a U.S. Senator by being a football coach in the South. Auburn Auburn mostly and yeah and he wasn't he wasn't great was it

you followed football college football way closer I do he was like you know he hung around at Auburn for a while you know

but he never was all that great yeah yeah so he's basically asking like if to filter everything through the one thing he understands

which is you know brabbing college football players to go play for him but the idea that like it's like explain this they would pick another profession i don't know but like what if you were played saxophone

you're like uh is this more like a high sea or like uh god these people are so fucking stupid um literally he could google who's in charge the white house covid task force right it's like they just i don't know they have to have something to ask or something sometimes i feel like like i just well they succeeded to make it yeah they succeeded to make a foul to the face of the america's COVID response when he doesn't have any actual power. All the CDC, the National Institute of Health just, like, makes some recommendations. So, like, they don't have the power to, to, to, they make guidelines for what they think should happen, but nobody has a power to force you to do anything.

There's a bunch of nerds over there being like, hey, where, we're, we're an orange vest when you ride your bike at night, you know? It's like that level. Right. Yeah. Buckle your sleep belt. Well, they do have laws for that. Yeah.

Yeah. So you said they asked about Ivermecting in that got brought back up, but Ivermectin's old hat. it, Mark, let's get into it. I mean, I'm sure they're still out here taking it, but they're on the bigger and dumber things now. Yeah. So to the main topic tonight, and I guess our biggest dumbass is anyone who didn't know they could cure COVID if they were flexible enough to kick their legs over their head. Because the big cure is drinking pee, Ray. Yeah. Drink your own pee. Do you remember, do you remember in Daily Dumbass probably, I mean, it's probably

been close to six months ago now. We talked about a Knoxville. lady who went on a big pee drinking tirade at like a city council meeting or something like that. Well, dude, she was ahead of her time. She was streets ahead. She's not getting the credit she deserves right now because she was out there saying it. And I don't know if we ever said this on the show, but fun fact, me and Mark did not know this when we were talking about it, but found out after the fact that that lady was a bridesmaid and one of our best friend's weddings. one of our best friend's wife's best friends was the pay drinking lady from Knoxville so that was fine yeah I don't think they talk anymore they went to yeah they went to do different sides of the woo-woo

of the pay drinking fence yeah yeah so there's this guy who's running around he's gone viral he's gone viral a few times I don't think we've ever talked about him before his name is uh Christopher Christopher key it sucks because one of my best friends in the world is Chris Key. I grew up with Insalina, but this guy's Christopher, so I can separate him a little bit. But he, my Chris Key actually texted me this guy earlier and was just like, God damn it. That's got to be rough. Yeah. So this guy's gotten fairly prominent because he doesn't like the way you get prominent right in right now is going viral. I guess maybe that's all across American society. But yeah, so here he is. Let's play this first video, Matt,

of him. First debuting is a piss drinking therapy. Well, maybe it won't play. All things, okay. This has been around for centuries. We've got research after research, documented, peer review, published papers on your end. We do. We have this. Okay.

But they have been doing for the last nine months now. And what he has right now is all antidotal because, again, you know, to put together a randomized double-bombo placebo study with this is kind of tough but I'm going to give you some stuff you can kind of the coronary dog was rough enough but now now drink urine

yeah yeah there you go so a couple things one he calls the evidence antidotal antidotal I know when I first heard that I was like I was like was that on purpose because like he's because it's the antidote

but then I feel like you could tell from what he says after that that he meant anecdotal yeah Yeah, he also really, it really hit for me that he said it's hard to put together a double-blined placebo study, which is understandable because you've got to get convinced of half the people to drink something to taste like pee, but won't cure COVID. Yeah. Yeah, I'm not signing up for the Piss COVID study. I'll tell you that much.

You know, some of the medical studies I can maybe get with, you know, they give you drugs and see what happens. Like, you know, I think they're doing stuff with mushrooms now or whatever. You know, that could be fun. but the but the piss COVID trials now I'm out on that who are these people in this room with him like it's just I mean I know we've talked about these loonies for so long now but it's wild it still is wild to me the people that gain enough of a following to you know fill a room fill you know up with people and then tell them to drink their own piss like it's some wild shit going on out here man he's famous and he's famous and he's people, though. He became prominent. He drives around the country and he, okay, so he had a, he had a badge and a uniform made to say vaccine police police. He also got his car masked to look like a police cruiser. He carries a bunch of fucking automatic weapons around in his car. He also has a goddamn flamethrower, Trey. He has a flamethrower. He says, he talks about how he's going to burn all the vaccines. And he got, what really got big was he would go to, he would go to Walmart. There's a flame thrower. He would go to Walmart. and in different pharmacies and try to hand out like basically arrest words

and see some desist orders by handing out vaccines and tell people the pharmacists who work to Walmart that they could be. There we go. He said you could be hung and executed to people that work at Walmart

which my sister used to work at Walmart and I'm here to tell you they would welcome that. I did not not see that coming. But so, but then what happens? Like he walks in here. He serves.

their papers, which is just like pages from a coloring book or whatever, some random shit, a manifesto he printed off, but he serves from their papers, I'm putting you under vaccine arrest or whatever. Yeah. Then what happens? He's escorted out? Well, he's been arrested a few times, and I want to show you his mugshot because it's like, you can tell we still a crazy person's mugshot.

I love him. Dude. Look at this guy. I think, I feel like he kind of looks like a freshly molted. Ted Cruz right there. Yeah. Like Ted Cruz after his Ted Cruz after he shed his previous skin and it's fresh and new

and kind of shiny and greasy and he steps out of the chamber. You know what I mean? Like that's kind of what this guy's got going on right here, I think. That's what I was going to say. It looks like Ted Cruz if his skin wasn't weirdly loose in his face. So he's been arrested and this was fun.

So this was from an article about his pretrial hearing. His court appointed, speaking to a court appointed attorney outside the courtroom, Kiki could be heard stating, again, you can't. I'm competent. I'm not insane. So when you're telling your own lawyer, you're competent and not insane, that's always cool. No better way to establish your sanity than by screaming in a courtroom. I'm not insane. I am sane. That's proven to be the best way to establish. You ever been in a bar and someone's argued with the bartender that they are in fact sober? No sober person argues with the

bartender by how sober they are. What you do is quietly go to another bar. So this guy, he goes on and go, I'm completely saying, I don't need an attorney. And yeah, so this guy is, he's probably going to be a United States senator pretty soon, if not on the federal courts. So speaking of drink, people drinking random talks of bullshit to cure COVID, here's a Q update. Our favorite, these people have been in Dallas camped out at Dealey Plaza since around Thanksgiving, right?

Yeah, still there. Yeah, so currently, here's the latest headline, Dallas QAnon cultists are drinking toxic chemicals from a communal bowl, family says. So not only are they drinking bleach, which the last guy, that key guy was talking about drinking, like he was joking about how you thought drinking bleach was rough. How you're drinking your own piss, which is obviously you shouldn't be doing either of those things, although piss is probably honestly less toxic than bleach if you do it straight out of your dick, I think. Well, surely, I mean, damn, but that's pretty low bar there, Mark. Well, at least it's not bleach, I guess. So here's a quote from that article. A woman who left her husband and children behind in Delaware to follow her fringe QAnon

Colt leader last month. This is the woman we talked about earlier who's family cut off her credit card, trying to make her come home. She can drink in a chemical cocktail containing chlorine dioxide, which is bleach, and industrial disinfectant among other substances. She's very proud that she's the one mixing this and handing out. but they're drinking the COVID cure out of a bowl they all share share pass around yeah and now grab hands do a little prayer circle something like that uh yeah how are they not just

dead now oh they've been there so long doing all this crazy shit now they're drinking bleach and chemicals like how are they alive remember they they did all lose their intensive taste and smell a couple of weeks ago and they thought it was a government laser beam attack. Remember that? We talked about that? Yeah. Yeah. So, oh, God, these people are so great. Like, they, they're never going to, the date for when JFK Jr. is supposed to reappear is past like 10 different times. They're never going to fucking leave. Like, if you were a BLM protest of four people, the cops would have chased you about a Daly Plaza months ago. But these, this couple hundred weirdos just get to live there like it's Jones Town until they finally kill themselves.

um so this is just keeps getting strangers straighter this is just from today um there's a new uh arremectin replacement um um why do you need a replacement is it because there's a shortage is that why they say but why do you need something different if it works so fucking good maybe why not just keep taking it pharmacist has stopped giving it to them i guess it's part of the problem and maybe pet stores are locking it up like it's like drugstores do baby food maybe formerly. But so the new one, this new cocktail, this is pretty hilarious all around because it contains antidepressants and androgen inhibitors.

Now, these drugs, I didn't know much about inhibitors until today, but here's the thing about antidepressants. They're recommending 40 milligrams of Prozac, which exceeds the 20 milligram recommendation dose for new patients. So that large of a dose of Prozac can have side effects, like make. You're taking you suicidal. So you ought not be doing that. Although, to be fair, to be fair to these lunatics, some doctors do recommend higher doses for treating stuff like bulimia.

But being hungry is being... Dude, do they also, and look, I'm from the, I grew up in the rural south at the height of the pill epidemic. So I'm aware you can oftentimes just get a doctor to write you a script for some shit. But is that like the central concede? these strategies when they put them out is just like just you know find a good doctor that'll give you whatever you ask for because they shouldn't be they shouldn't be able to just get these things just because they want them but you know I know that that ain't how it works a lot of times especially people I don't know yeah I mean I don't know how prozac works I do know that

Xanax is fairly easy to get if you only want to get it once if you just like hey I'm nervous to fly can I have six Xanax that will do that with no questions asked basically but if you go back next week and ask for six more you're probably going to have questions but here's the funny so the other drug we didn't know about the inhibitors here's the funny thing about this considering it's from these group of people is they're mainly used for their use

in transgender health care these are hormone blockers so yeah so all these people who think that soy is turning men into females and the Alex Jones crewer thinks that frogs like the chemicals in the water are turning frogs gay. He was including Prozac's in that, are taking Prozac and gender-changing hormones. Drugs, voluntarily.

To fight COVID. That sounds made up. It sounds like so much shit with these people sounds like they're being trolled by somebody with that. Like the person who's coming out with this and telling them all this shit is just fucking with them and thinks it's hilarious or something. Because that's wild, man. They were all on Viagra a couple weeks ago.

They thought that was a new secret COVID cure. But like Viagra is made by Pfizer, who also makes the, like if you're against, you even think Big Farm has poisoned you. Yeah. Why is Viagher? No, I know. Yeah, 100%. That, yes, I'm glad you said that because I thought about this, that earlier too, when I was

looking through the outline. Like, I thought that was their big problem with the vaccine or I mean, I know they've got a bunch of them. But one of the big problems with the vaccine is we don't know what's in that. nobody knows what's in that but you know what's in androgen inhibitors or whatever it's like yeah stuff inhibits and androgen you know like that you don't know what's in none of this shit why is this shit okay but that shit isn't literally just because the internet tells you take this shit and the government tells you take that other shit and the government's like ran by people that you don't like right now and that yeah that's pretty much it the thing about the thing about conspiracy theories is it has to be a secret you discover it can't be be somebody that's official line. So anything that says what it does on the side of the Bible, you can't believe. You've got to find a secret use for another thing.

Right. So I think that's just it. Yeah. I mean, it's like, because like I think big pharma is evil too, but vaccines are very straightforward simple science. It's not some like the evil comes in the back end where they won't share their patents, where they're driving up the prices, right? Where like COVID tests or like Walmart like double the price of rapid tests because

you're in such high demand right now. That shit's fucking evil. The science is very straightforward. But, you know, whatever. It's where we live. Whatever, dude. All right. Well, we'll start looking through some comments and stuff there, Matt.

But, Mark, what's this? What's the book ban or something about books? What's the books? You wanted to tell me about. So, uh, book stuff. Yeah. So states have been cracking out. We talked a lot about, um, uh, school districts moving to allow parents to remove books.

And a few, a few states are trying to pass laws to let, like, for example, example, if a teacher, if his parent reports a teacher for teachers, something they didn't want them to be teaching, the teacher could be fired and have to pay like the same, the Texas bounty law pay like the teacher would owe the parent $10,000 or some shit. Anyway, it's resulting in a lot of books being, sorry, go ahead. I was just like, I, I'm astounded that we can find enough people willing to be teachers in this country right now. You know what I mean? We start passing laws like that shit. Who the fuck is going to sign up to be a teacher? in this godforsaken country when we institute shit like that like i just these are also like we talk about class stuff we talked about how like the january 6th insurrectionists are actually pretty well off for insurrectionists and i was thinking about that because like these are all like bourgeois like exurban petty tyrants to a certain degree and i i can't imagine they know any actual teachers right because if you talk to a teacher their complaints and what their days are like or just trying to get through their fucking day for sure and teach math and shit my sister

some more erasers or whatever because they can't afford it and they don't have the money to but they need them and shit like that my sister teaches first grade and uh she has she doesn't have nearly enough time to do communism she's trying to keep them from eating the fucking underwear you know like she's not she's too busy she's not trying to indoctrinate your kid except to teach them to be nice to each other the closest she'll get to teach race stuff is like hey you shouldn't be mean to somebody just because they how they look that's that's the extent of it so uh yeah um all right Justin Goldberg says like the video thank you Justin always forget I do like the video subscribe tell your friends all that good stuff you're supposed to do

but Mark I'd uh interrupted you kind of you were oh I was going to wrap up so a bunch of black authors are being notified that their books are being pulled from libraries which is coming as a shock to them because their books have nothing to do with critical race theory or any or or racism explicitly one woman's book got pulled for having sex in it and she was like but there's no sex I mean they're teenagers in the book so they think about sex and talk about sex but nobody actually has any sex so it's literally just because they're written by black people is what's happening yeah anything to do with CRT at all it's just black people wrote it so it must say that white people are evil and thus we got to get it get that out of there yeah I think

that's it who is allowed to be evil anymore just like demons like you know You know what I mean? Monsters? Yeah. Vampires and stuff. Like, who, who's allowed to be the villain in these stories anymore if it isn't fucking Nazis and slave owners? Yeah. Like, it's crazy, man.

Oh, shit. There was a, there was a video that went viral. I didn't blow it up, but, like, there's a state Senate hearing, I think, in Indiana, where this guy was. Yeah, a guy was having a hearing talking to teachers. And he was like, we need to be neutral when it comes to Marxism and Nazism. And Nazi, yeah, you got to be impartial. She's like, no, well, we take a stand, though. We're against Nazism.

And the state senator was like, to make, to try to make it clear they didn't misspeak was like, no, no, but we should teach them what they're about, we should be neutral about Nazism. It's like, oh, fuck. All right. I mean, hey, look, they had good uniforms, all right. You go boss.

Hitler was anti-smoking, I think I heard once. Like, you know, he loved dogs. He loved dogs, yes. It was an artist. Yeah, be even-handed, Mark. That's all this guy's trying to say. Yeah. And also to genocide.

crimes against humanity and all that. We cover that too, but you just can't take a stance on those. You can't say, you can't just be saying the genocide is bad automatically. That's like, that's indoctrination. Can't be brainwashing kids. They might be into genocide. If you start teaching kids the genocide of the Jews is wrong, they might start thinking the genocide of the Native Americans was wrong. We can't have that. Right? No. No, we won that one. That's what they need to be taught. Karen Butcher from YouTube says, are people in other countries as gullible as Americans

when it comes to COVID vaccines I'm other country dumb generally I know that they have their dipshits too because every now and then I'll see a headline or a video clip or something from some lunatic in a different country doing a similar type of thing

showing their ass in a pharmacy or whatever I know they exist but I have no idea the like prevalence of it though compared to us surely we're worse but do you know anything about it? we have lower vaccine uptake than countries, the other countries they have it available. I could throw out theories why I think American exceptionalism leads us

to think we're far more the heroes of the story than other people are. Nobody's running around Australia being like, we're taught that we're the number one country in the world, and we deserve to dominate everything. And I'm the hero of this story, and I will always be like, I don't think it's quite as prevalent over there because they don't, they're not so gassed up on their own bullshit. They didn't go to the moon.

Yeah. No, they didn't go moon and it ain't called Captain Australia, Mark. That's it. Captain America for a reason, God damn it. Daniel Boulin, or Boulant, old Danny Boulant says, from Facebook says, do we need to be neutral about 9-11 to? It's a very good fucking point, in my opinion, Daniel. I don't know why it would be any different, but you know they don't feel that way. But of course, I mean, no, we shouldn't.

But if you're that guy, why, why would that guy say you shouldn't have to be impartial about 9-11? What makes that different from Hitler in that guy's eyes, you know? I mean, if you're given truth serum, Hitler's white. Muslim. And the terrorists were mutt. They're brown Muslims. And that's what my, and the target was America instead of all those, you know, European Jews and stuff. You know.

So, yes, that is 100% what makes. makes it different to that guy. But that's a good point. From YouTube, Traversei, Traversei. GOP has been attacking public education ever since desegregation. They push white Christian schools funded by tax subsidies. Yeah, separation of church and state is in their way as they march to white Christian fascism. I remember when Betsy DeVos got the Secretary of Education early on, there was talks about, like,

privatizing schools and stuff like that. And I remember thinking how fucking insane that was. As somebody that grew up in Clay County, Tennessee, I mean, the middle of nowhere, I just can't imagine how that could ever work in a place like that. Other than just Sunday school, it's just school now. We just have to go to school at the literal church. Because there ain't going to be no fucking private school in Clay County. I can tell you that much.

It's wild because, like, like, someone made this point. I was reading by the other day that like the, like, I mean, I think everyone knows it's to be way less expensive. Like in the 70s, public college was like a few hundred bucks a semester for classes, a little more for room and board or whatever, but it was very affordable. And it started getting financialized and defunded. And now public university is like 15, 20, 30, $40,000 a year, right? And it was pretty much a response.

Ronald Reagan explicitly said this in the 70s that the reason we lost the Vietnam War is because of the student protest movement. So we got to get, we got to make college much harder to go to. So these fucking hippies won't Fuck up the country Can't get them dirty barefoot hippies in there anymore Make it expensive price the hippies out And also, you know, you know

Blacks and Mexicans them too That also make it prohibitive for them Which is a big plus if you're Ronald Reagan Acolyte So yeah Yeah they was really on some shit Reagan and them Mick Jett From YouTube says

They're neutral about the insurrection Yeah, I can't call them terrorists they're just people that punch cop that's all they were uh yeah i think we're we're not we're not against punching cops in all circumstances but uh again it depends on terrorism depends on the motive what are you doing it for right right yes what is the the end you know the end result if it's to overthrow a fucking government pretty sure that's some terrorist insurrection stuff the dark canuck says up here We got a lady who claims she's queen of Canada, crazy anti-vaxxer.

I think we covered her, didn't we? Didn't we cover her? It's been a long time ago now, but yeah. She's a Philippine immigrant. I mean, look up her name, but she's awesome. She has, for a while she had a large following she shouldn't know about, but she wasn't on the, she wasn't on the social media platforms they were on. She's just one lady talking to one to a void, had no idea she had a half million people watching your videos.

She's the one who had the followers, just like the vaccine. cop we talked about earlier going to serve Walmart for a pharmacist with papers she had followers going around to different uh police stations serving them with cease and assist orders from the queen of canada that's right yeah yeah the queen of canada yeah decrees yeah that you must stop being cops do do lo dodo lo is her name queen de dulo uh yeah she's awesome yeah man crazy people having a real moment in history man the internet makes them so easy for them to find each other absolutely yes the internet brings them together amplifies their voices all that stuff but you know we got cat memes and stuff too so it ain't all bad and this show

am i right uh rose rose from youtube says tennessee tried to pass law a few years ago letting parents form committees to approve public library books if i recall correctly because that would go swell. Yeah, I, that's, that ain't it, Mark. It's like the whole, the whole, the one thing they're always right about with cancel culture is, are you too weak to read something you disagree with or that offend you? Right. Right.

So I read something disagree with me all the time. Like, I read Lolita, you know what I didn't do? Move to Crypto Land. Right. So like, it's like, you don't like, these guys are, they're fucking insane. No, that's the thing. We're like the snowflakes and everything, but they are the most overly sense. sensitive people on planet earth.

And yeah, they can't, they're, they just canceling every day canceling all of black authoredom right now just because they can't, they're too fragile to be told the fucking truth. Aaron McCullough. It's not even about, before you get to that, because I feel like we, you're going to want, you're going to have a rant that'll probably go through the end of the show about this. It's going to be good. So the, the, like, these people also have never talked, they, they're not taught the kids,

the teachers, but they also have. haven't talked to kids because the idea that a kids is going to agree with the last thing he read, kids rebel against literally everything you put in front of them. If you want a kid to be conservative, make him read a bunch of liberal books, right? Yeah. I don't know. Yeah, no, no. Yeah, you're right.

I mean, it, you know, it definitely, I thought the whole idea was exposing kids to any number of differing philosophies and ways of thought and life. experiences and ideas and letting them fucking work it out, you know, with your guidance. I thought that was supposed to be the whole deal, but apparently not. It's just fucking Christian lit until you graduate and then you get married. And that's it. And then you don't know how to fuck and you're both miserable. So I, I've read both Unabomber's Manifesto and the Satanic Bible. And I've only agreed with about 70% of both.

So I don't know. Aaron McCullough from Facebook says, how about Georgia knocking Alabama off its high horse? Yeah, I texted our group thread last night. I said, Today is a great day for not Alabama and therefore the world. And of course,

I mean that in football terms. If you're from anywhere but Alabama and you care even a modicum about college football, then I feel like you're thrilled today. Sorry, Alabama. Actually, I'm not sorry, Alabama. you've won fucking what six or seven nine you'll be all right without the seventh or eighth or whatever the hell it is and they got back there last year too but for now they lost and it was sweet and fuck them and cori forster who's from georgian a big dogs fan was here at my house watching it

and he about damn cried lost his mind got drunker in hell screaming all over the place and it was uh you know it was very sweet i would have cried if i was a george fan i cried last week watching my favorite basketball player get his jersey retired um so i But, like, here's the thing about the Bama fans, like, you're the death star, right? Yes. And the upside of being the dust star is when most fights you're in. Yeah. The downside of being the dust star is when you get blown up, we're all the, all the rest of us are all e-walks dancing around.

Yes, absolutely. That's right. Justin Goldberg says, Chow must be over the moon. Yeah, no, he really was. He was thrilled. And he was saying, he was saying during the game, he was like, he's like, just once in my life, man. He's like, you, he's like, you're a Tennessee fan. And even you, even you have experienced it.

in your lifetime, you know, and you guys are terrible. He wasn't being that mean about it, even though it was true. But I was 12 when Tennessee won. And that's, it's cool as a kid, too. Me and my buddies, we were fucking thrilled. But, you know, it's on it. We couldn't get drunk, Mark, is what I'm saying. We were 12, you know, couldn't get hammered.

We're not from Philadelphia. We're not going to get drunk at 12. I don't know why I picked Philadelphia. It just seemed right. I bet they get drunk early in Philly. Do you think, do you think if the deal was with Corey? Corey, if you graduate from the University of Georgia,

you can have a college. So if you have to go to college and graduate, then you get a title. What do you have done it? Oh, he would tell you that he would love. Corey to this day says that he will one day graduate from the University of Georgia in Athens.

Okay. And I told him, when he first told me that, I kind of, I like snickered because I thought he was doing a thing. And I thought he was fucking around. And then I was like, I was like, oh man, I feel bad.

I feel like, You remember in cool runnings when Yule Brenner told Sank a coffee he was going to live in Buckingham Palace one day? And he laughed at him. I was like, that's how I'm being right now. No, he was saying that. Actually, he's kind of shifted now to saying that one day, Georgia will obviously give him an honorary degree for hitting so hard. So that's more where he's headed now. but either way, he's on one.

Michael Waldrop says, I'm a Georgia native and lifelong fan. I cried last night. I remember the last time we won back in 1980. Yeah, I'm just glad it's somebody else. That's all I'm saying, especially Alabama, but also just it ain't Alabama or Ohio State or Clemson.

And that also, you know, like it's just the same damn teams every year. And now Georgia will be one of them, but they had to get one first and now they have. well you uh you and i are uh sports happiness rules sports hurts hurts hurts far more than it should and NFL playoffs just started you're a raiders and titans fan and i'm a cowboy's fan so we got a lot of pain coming you have to feel it twice nothing but pain baby yeah as far as the raiders go i'm just glad dude after the fucking

coach got fired for racism and the number one ride receiver uh killed a lady while drunk horrifically. I mean, just them making it. Everything's gravy now. But the Titans, they should, they should, I mean, I expect them to win it all, Mark. That's my expectation. I don't know why. And all of Tennessee sports history would suggest otherwise, but, you know, we will

see what happens. Okay. Get your money now, folks. You get Trains lock of the week. Yeah. Mark would tell you, should be the first to tell you that I am perhaps the worst sports better on planet earth i've uh i used to send them my bets and and i don't put a lot of money on i just do it for fun you know nickel and diamond that shit but i'd send them my bets every week and be

like all if you want to do the opposite of this go ahead and they wouldn't but if y'all would have you'd have made a shitload of money last year that's all i'm saying doing i you never go broke betting the opposite of what i think but anyway thank y'all again for being here if you want a weekly skews shirt you can go to weekly skews dot com you go to well read comedy dot com for uh tickets you want to see us live as long as you vaccinated all that good stuff like subscribe tell you mom and them you know and uh come back next week and we'll be right here waiting so you love you bye do you
