Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, everybody, welcome back. Happy Skews Day to you. It's April 18th, 2023. I'm Trey Crowder, and that's Mark Aegee. What's up, Mark? How are you doing, Trey? Both wearing grizz shirts. Go griz.
Starting point is 00:00:19 Yeah. I'm not feeling great about it, but yeah, go gris. Yeah, not a sports pod, but I can talk about, yeah. So before we get to show, a couple updates and some stories have been following. Iowa Senate Republicans passed a version of the child labor bill that we were bagging on a month or so ago. I was messaging with Charlie Wishman, friend of the show, who's with IRA Federation of Labor. And he didn't call, you know, obviously, I think it's exact words where I'm not claiming victory here. But they did manage to get a lot of horrific language out about meatpacking plants and there being no liability.
Starting point is 00:00:57 for employers like the original bill had like explicit permissions for children to use bandsaws well you know that's something i guess yeah yeah no they're trying to uh spin it as like uh this is just about freedom or like children should have the freedom to work night shifts at factories at 14 or 15 or whatever right that's the that's what america's all about having to start working as a child and not stopping to you. you die. Yeah, what about the freedom to do heroin? Let me have that. So yeah, I mean, all this stuff. The reason you have regulations is if you don't have them, you create a race to the bottom, right? So like if one restaurant's saving money by paying children to work till midnight,
Starting point is 00:01:43 then the other one's going to look at their bottom lines and be like, well, we should do that. Yeah, right. And the disease, the conversation around this has been so diseased. I'll see a bunch of people in line being like, well, I had an after school job. Yeah, so did I. This isn't about that. But, like, my employer, I worked at, my first guy was bagging groceries. My, one of my best friend's mom was my boss, my manager. And I think the law only let me work till 10 p.m. But also, she wouldn't have scheduled to be past 10 a.m. anyway, because she's my friend's mom. So, like, I just think people don't have a mental category. Like, this isn't, like, a typical after-school job type shit. This is, like, they wanted to be able to have
Starting point is 00:02:20 kids work midnight to eight in, like, warehouses. Yeah, well, dude, on the flip side of that, my first job outside of, I was a tutor at the library, but after that, my first job was pumping gas at a full-service gas station, just a little gas island in Salina. And the owner of that would come through and make me, he'd tell me to just like walk laps around the parking lot so people knew I was there. But the wildest thing he told me to do once was like it was about to, it was like coming a wrath of God thunderstorm as it does in the south. And he came over there and told me to go out and change. the signage, which to do so, you use this big metal pole with a suction cup at the end
Starting point is 00:02:58 of it. It's not a light and sort of on the metal pole up in the air. It's like, this guy just trying to kill me. I told him, yeah, sure, boss, and I clearly didn't do that. But yeah, you know, so yeah, well, they at least made it as extremely painful for him. Like, they had to
Starting point is 00:03:14 hold against him to stay up all night, and they were able to pass this bill at all five in the morning. And even two Republicans that I'm voting against it. So, at least they lost, those motherfuckers lost some sleep. also wouldn't answer questions about the bill because I guess the context here is the Iowa Supreme Court smacked them last year because they ran their mouths about how they rigged like an electric transmission contract or something and they so their court arguments didn't hold
Starting point is 00:03:37 water because they had said the truth out loud. So yeah, they won't even talk about their fucking bill or who was lobbying for it or why they wanted to pass it. So also before we get to the show, Clarence Thomas. Turns out, we did like the whole Friday episode on this and it's only got- The Patreon episode, yes, Patreon episode was about Clarence Thomas taking all kinds of money and gifts and benefits from a Republican billionaire super donor. Yeah. Which you're not supposed to do, by the way, if you guys-
Starting point is 00:04:10 Yeah. But it's apparently fine. What we talked about on Friday is like basically if you don't know the contour of the story, Clarence Thomas was hanging out on a billionaire's yacht. The guy collects a lot of Nazi memberabilia. He was getting like free trips worth like half a million dollars. Clarence Thomas is a salary of $285,000. So this is not something he built to afford on his own dime.
Starting point is 00:04:32 This billionaire also bought a bunch of property from Clarence Thomas and let his mom keep living at it while also fixing up the house and letting her live there rent free. So it was like a fucking payoff. That's what stuff we talked about on Friday. But since then, more stuff come out. on the stuff he did disclose on his financial disclosure forms it lists him getting like somewhere between two uh two or like about three hundred to seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars from a company that doesn't exist now uh a couple possibilities here because they the old firm he was getting legal money from changed its name so possible he just didn't fell out his forms correctly right like he just kept using the old it was like ginger real estate and then it became ginger holdings or something right right right but he was still claiming
Starting point is 00:05:21 the money was coming from the first company so it could be an understandable mistake but clarence thomas actually has a nice recorded history of how he feels towards other people who make paperwork mistakes and it's not exactly charitable um for example he uh last year he wrote it an opinion that says when your state-appointed lawyer fails to introduce evidence of your innocence in state court, that's your fault, and it's illegal for a federal court to consider the evidence. Basically, this has to do with how you follow your paperwork when you want to appeal a conviction. He's saying if you fill out the form wrong, you have sucks, that sucks sorry you have to stay in jail, even if the lawyer just failed to introduce evidence
Starting point is 00:06:03 of your actual innocence, all right? Yeah, I don't understand how that's supposed to be okay. I mean, you know, Supreme Court justice, so he just says it's okay, but it's like, Isn't that like the point of lawyers? You know what I mean? Like people are not going to know that shit. That's what the lawyers for. Well, if your lawyer is incompetent or dumb and fucks you over in that way because they don't know the shit either, you know, you should get another shot at it. If like that comes to light later, it's only fair.
Starting point is 00:06:32 Yeah. Also, it's just like, it's like saying, I don't care if there is evidence that exists that exonerates this person. I'm acknowledging that that might be the case. they still should stay in jail because of how the trial went the first time. And that's crazy to me. Like if there's legitimate evidence that proves a case one way or the other, it should always be, you know, relevant. There is a guy I've read about this case a couple days ago.
Starting point is 00:06:59 If you read it me, it's a guy in prison in Missouri for a murder that everyone agrees he didn't commit. The prosecutors, the judge, himself, of course. The guy was convicted in like an hour-long trial. We're two guys testified against him. Both guys have since said it was too dark to even see who shot the guy. The cops just pressured them to say it was this guy. He had an alibi because he was home with his family.
Starting point is 00:07:23 They all said he's here, but his lawyer didn't bother it. He had a court-appointed lawyer that he met for 15 minutes before his trial. All right. And the Supreme Court has ruled repeatedly that actual innocence is no reason to get out of prison. Missouri has a law that says it is, but the way they worded it is poorly. it only applies to death penalty cases. So if this guy had been sentenced to death, he'd be free. But because he only got life in prison, he has to stay there.
Starting point is 00:07:50 I mean, what of what kind of fucking joke is that? I mean, obviously a very unfunny one. But I just don't, I don't understand how you justify that. If you're in the justice system, like what's the, what's their, you know, like, why even take the opposite stance? Like, why, why stand up there and be like, we acknowledge that it's clear that this guy's innocent. but what are you going to do? He needs to continue being locked up. Like that's just inhuman, man.
Starting point is 00:08:18 Because these guys believe in a strict, ungenerous reading of the law for everyone except themselves. Black letter law, Clarence Thomas was acquired to disclose that he got all this money accurately. But it doesn't apply to him. It doesn't apply to Trump. It doesn't apply to anybody with more than 50 bucks to throw around. And by the way, he's not the first thing he's been caught fucking up his display.
Starting point is 00:08:40 It was like a year or two ago that he would have figured out that he filed. He's supposed to claim the family incomes too, right? And he claimed none for his wife in a period where she made $700,000 just from the Heritage Foundation. So, like, he's just straight up in lying on this shit. And no one can apparently do anything. But, like, the important thing part of remember here, we talk about this a lot. But, like, conservatives, like, seem to believe that if the end group is inherently righteous, Terence Thomas cannot be crooked because Prince Thomas is on their side, right?
Starting point is 00:09:08 Any check on their power is frivolous. and any of your obligation is an undue burden. They have no responsibilities or obligations nor any limits, right? And the people who could stop this are hypothetically Senate Democrats who could say subpoenaed clearance Thomas, opening an impeachment hearing, call him as a witness, call a bunch of witnesses, at least embarrass the shit out of him if he's not going to resign. But guess who sits on the Senate Judiciary Committee? Diane Feinstein, who so far.
Starting point is 00:09:36 He's famously doing great right now. her brain's putting um so she hasn't shown up to work in months she's home in california she's let me read these numbers to you she's missed three quarters of all votes the 118th congress some 40 million americans in the country's biggest and most important state i don't know most important is accurate but like a little california propaganda so we have half the representation of the 500 000 residents of wyoming uh she politically reported and she might not make it to the back to the capital for two years so Democrats of a bear Senate majority are down a seat on the Judiciary Committee, meaning they can't
Starting point is 00:10:13 see any judges, all right? And she won't resign. Even though, I mean, she won't resign is the wrong word for it because she doesn't even know she's a senator anymore. This is just about her staff trying to hang on to their jobs because they're pretty powerful people and their little world. How is this supposed to work, Mark, like, you know, in a sane world or whatever? In a situation like this. You've got a sitting senator who's clearly, you know, unwell and unfit and isn't going to get better. Like, what's supposed to happen? They resign and then what, there's a special election held to fill their seat or like, what's supposed to happen? In a world where, say, Diane Feinstein was confident enough to know she's still in the Senate, she would recognize that she should resign.
Starting point is 00:10:57 That's the only responsible choice for her constituents and, you know, America, because she can't do her job. But in the alternative, her staff could, they're forging your signature on all this shit anyway, just resign for her, but they care about their own jobs more than, you know, their constituents or America. And then like, say if any of those things, either of those things happen, the governor could just report a replacement and Democrats would have a majority tomorrow. But like, right now what's happening is Democrats waited too long to do anything about this. They can't seat judges. And in order to replace her on the Judiciary Committee, they need unanimous consent, which means they need 49 Republicans to go along with it.
Starting point is 00:11:35 Or they need cinema or mansion to go with a nuclear option to cedar with just a very majority. Or they need 10 Republican votes to break a filibuster. So like they're asking for Republicans to cooperate and replacing Dianne Feinstein, which they're not going to do because why would they want Biden to be able to seat a bunch of judges or investigate Clarence Thomas? Yeah. So like. It's such a nightmare. Like we've got and we're never going to, but like we've got to do. something about having so many ancient people, so many relics, you know, in the highest
Starting point is 00:12:07 echelons of power in this country. Like, it's just crazy. I was reading a take, I was reading a take on this earlier. It turns out one of the popes to forget which changed the rules to the, he wouldn't let popes, uh, people in the Vatican council over 80 vote for the next pope for fairly obvious reasons. The Vatican is more progressive. In the United States sentence. Hang on a second, Mark. If you can hear me, can you hear me all right? I'm having technical difficulties, I think.
Starting point is 00:12:39 Can you see me too? Yeah. Sorry, everybody. We got a live show here. That's what happens. You are, I can hear you now, but you are, your picture is frozen for me. Matt, will you put in the chat? Like, he says it's good.
Starting point is 00:12:52 Okay, well, then we'll just roll with it. All right. I think you're back. Sorry, everybody. Anyway, yeah. Wow, let's roll into it, I suppose. With us as always as producer, Matt, this is weekly skews. I want to remind you all before we continue about a few things.

Now, as for the show tonight, we're going to be joined a little later by Chief Legal Correspondent and Senior Good Buddy, Well Red's own Drew Moore, to talk about his new mini special Tennessee's a drag. You can probably guess what it's about. It's very good. Also, we're going to talk a little about the current state of our home state before asking Drew for some legal advice for some of the world's dumbest people. Should be fun. I was going to say there are some crazy court cases.
Starting point is 00:14:29 is involving magal lunatics, including a guy wagging the dick at a Walmart, the guy tried to blow up the dictionary. So there was going to see what former lawyer, Drew Morgan, thinks about all that a little later. But first we begin, of course, with the Daily Dumbass. Matt, graphic, please. Tonight's D.D. Puddin for making America too woke for a president DeSantis. Watch this ad from the Trump camera.
Starting point is 00:14:55 Ron DeSantis loves sticking his fingers where they don't belong. And we're not just talking about pudding. DeSantis has his dirty fingers all over senior entitlements. Like cutting Medicare, slashing Social Security, even raising our retirement age. Tell Ron DeSantis to keep his pudding fingers off our money. Oh, get this man a spoon. A plus. A plus work. Just perfectly combining everything that everybody.
Starting point is 00:15:29 hates of Iran DeSantis will also pointing out to the senior citizens of Florida that he wants to cut Social Security and Medicare. Just amazing. Yeah, dude. How am I supposed to feel? Like, Trump's been kind of pounding that whole thing, hasn't he? The whole like Social Security and the retirement age and stuff. And it's like
Starting point is 00:15:45 truly, it's like there was an old onion headline that was something like terrible news. The worst person you know just made a really good point or something like that. And that's how I've been feeling about Trump where all that's concerned. It's like, well, at least he's right about that thing, I guess, but I feel dirty, like agreeing with him about anything. Yeah, but it's like Americans like Social Security to Medicare and Republicans have been open about trying to cut it for, there's some reason they can't.
Starting point is 00:16:12 I think I mentioned this before, but in 2012, poll just tried to pull focus groups on Romney Ryan's economic plan and people, they couldn't get results because people wouldn't believe that's what they actually wanted to do. And so, like, there's just this general disconnect between Republicans or four. and would voters think they're for? And it's just like, it's fascinating to watch it play out. But it's not just Trump and a lot of primary voters that are souring on DeSantis. So are his fucking donors. All right. This story is in a Rolling Stone.
Starting point is 00:16:42 Key DeSantis donors rip him in private chats. What the fuck is wrong with R.D? Someone screencapped these, like, I don't know, conservative, like, chat, they text groups, group chats and fucking hand with this reporter in a condition of anonymity. And here's where he's another guy. some of you can go in public. One mega donor named, a billionaire that name is Thomas Petterfee?
Starting point is 00:17:05 What do you think, Trey? Peturphy? P-E-T-P-E-T-P-F-F-F-F-W. Either that a Peter Fee? Yeah. So he went public over the weekend. He told the financial times that he and a bunch of his friends are putting spending from the Florida governor on hold cool because of his stance and abortion and book banning.
Starting point is 00:17:23 He's out of stockstep with the fucking billionaire ghoul class. Right. I know, but that's what I said. Like, I read that. It's like this dude, there's also some, some of these texts they got from these Republican Megadon's wherever to say shit. Like, if we wanted a mega, if we wanted a MAGA candidate, we would have just backed
Starting point is 00:17:40 Donald Trump, you know. And then that's like, we don't like, hey, walk it back. We just stopped this anti-abortion and book ban and stuff. And it's like, I didn't know that these people still existed out there. It's also like, you know, they've made their bed with all this shit. Like, it's all still their fault that this is what's happened to their side of the aisle. but it's like these are like the classic like just rich motherfuckers who don't want to pay any taxes and want to keep their wage slaves and whatever else but you know don't want to do all the
Starting point is 00:18:08 rest of that insane shit um yeah they believe in american exceptionalism at their core and they don't think of us as a country that burns books or where we do coups so there's still there's still still a few patriots at least in their own minds uh but the so if you want to how how drastic that i've a turn this is for peturphy i'm going to call them peturphy In 2012, I've somehow forgotten about this, but he bought a bunch of airtime for himself to do mid-long commercials on national broadcasts, just talking about the perils of socialism. This is one old guy podcasting about socialism to national TV audiences, and it was legal because it wasn't a campaign donation, which is this one guy paying his own money to talk on TV.
Starting point is 00:18:47 So this guy, if DeSantis has lost this guy, he's fucking, I mean, DeSantis, we talked about before, he's just not ready for prime time a lot of ways, including, you remember Trump calling him a groomer? because he hung out of high school parties and he was a teacher after college. So this story came out today. Exclusive, President DeSantis' ally who shot himself dead last year
Starting point is 00:19:07 was under investigation for using sold-out Taylor Swift tickets to lure teen to his office and show him her breasts, then trying to buy family silence. I love Daily Mail headlines. It's all a paragraph. So, yeah, this guy named Kent Sturman, who's basically single-handedly responsible for DeSantis's rise when he was big backwards when he first
Starting point is 00:19:23 got into politics, yeah, told a girl he would give her Taylor Swift tickets if she sent him a picture of her boobs. She did so. But he then told her she had to come to his office and pick them up. And when she got there, he told her he wanted to see them in person before she could have the tickets, sort of blocked her in his office. So he was going to be, going to be like arrested for kidnapping if he'd lived or if the
Starting point is 00:19:46 cops had done anything. He was also close to the cops in Jacksonville. So who knows? But then she told her dad. Yeah. Enough sledding there, buddy. That's pretty sorry. even by like Florida Politico, conservative politico standards, man.
Starting point is 00:20:01 They really get after it down there in Florida, don't I? This is like the third or fourth prominent high-level Florida conservative person who's had a thing for the teams and all that whole thing. Yeah. So this guy was one of his hands as his best friends and he was into banging teens. So I don't know. I think Colin DeSantis, the groomers in bounds. But, yeah, so this guy, so the girl's dad wanted to talk to about it, but obviously.
Starting point is 00:20:36 So Sturman had to meet him in a public setting so he wouldn't kill him, I'm betting. And Stern and instead offered him like a six-figure payday to please keep quiet. And dad said, fuck you, as dads are wont to do when you try to see pictures of their teenage daughter's boobs. and then he filed a police report and then he killed himself and left his suicide notes saying you're better off without me. Well, I don't think
Starting point is 00:20:58 this guy is pretty arrogant. I don't think you kill yourself over one boob picture allegations, right? When you have the cops in your pocket. It makes me feel like there's more to this story. But I fact, Oh, right. You think it was the tip of the iceberg?
Starting point is 00:21:11 They were going to find a bunch of other shit out about him. In fact, like, what I just said is it might take. It was a, they were quoting a cop. And I was quoting a cop and paraphrasing in the Daily Mail article, there's more of this story. But it doesn't matter because he's dead now. So he got away with it.
Starting point is 00:21:26 Man. All right. Well, that is gross. But our first honorable mention for Daily Dumbass is Joe Biden for surrendering to Iran via trans beer cans or something like that. I don't know. It's all weird. Let's see Marco Rubio talk about it. And our culture, what is what we focused on as a culture?
Starting point is 00:21:48 We're focused on the fact that now some man pretending to be a woman gets paid millions of dollars to sell Nike sports bras and Bud Light. So the world looks at that and said, this place is a laughing stock, and they react to it. And I could go on for an hour about all the things that we are, we are being embarrassed on the world stage. Our adversaries are taking advantage of it. And our friends are saying, hey, we may have to go on on our own here because these guys look like they're about to commit societal suicide.
Starting point is 00:22:12 So there's still this fucking panic about one Bud Light Instagram ad. Have you seen the actual ad? I wouldn't find it last night because I had not seen. it. I'm pretty on line. Well, because it's not like a, it's not like a nationwide TV spot or nothing like that, right? It's like how brands will have partnerships with influencers for them to post on their own socials and they get paid to do it. And they did that with a very prominent trans influencer. Right. But I'm sure they've done that with tons of other influencers. I'm sure they do it all the time. I've gotten paid to post shit before. And I'm nothing in the influencer world. But that's all it was. And we talked about this on the well read podcast today about how like, Drew was saying, it's like, oh, you know, they put it like, well, all this stuff is just shoved down our throat all the time. And it's like, this is, you would need to follow this person. Or go see this out to see it. Like, it's not a Super Bowl commercial. Like, it's in no way is it being shoved down your throat. You're like seeking it out to be pissed off at it, which I feel like is one of their biggest pastimes, really. I can't even like, like I literally wouldn't even know about this if they weren't. crying about it. Like, if Kid Rock hadn't shot the fucking... I wouldn't either. I'd never have any idea that it happened if Kid Rock hadn't shot all those bigger cases. And does Marker Rubio think that China follows Dylan Mulvaney on Instagram? Like, what does
Starting point is 00:23:36 the thought of the process? It doesn't, it's so disconnected from reality. But the discourse, like, they're fully bought in on this. They've been going on about it for weeks. Last night, Pete Hickseth on Fox did a whole segment about how he went to a baseball game and him and all of his friends. I refuse to get Bud Lights because of this. And they got a local IP, but then they Google the local IP. It turns out, oops, that's also owned by Anheiser Bush. Of course.
Starting point is 00:24:00 I love a conservative to find out that the economy is virtually integrated. There's like three companies on earth. And they can't really avoid, you know, doing business with them. Right. Lauren Bobert tweeted this out, which just fucking killed me for a lot of reasons. It's like, yeah, dude. This is the one America won. It's got Pat Tillman on a Bud Light gang, which is like, conservative is a totally memory hold.
Starting point is 00:24:19 Who and what Pat Tillman actually was? Yes. We've talked about him before. think. I don't remember what context he came up with on the show. It's been a while, but I feel like we talked about him. Yeah, Pat Tillman was a safety for the Arizona Cardinals left the NFL to join the military after 9-11, but immediately got over there and realized that it was all in a shit show and was telling his friends, he literally said, this war is so fucking illegal. Like, he saw through the bullshit immediately. And he was a huge atheist, too. And like, dude, Pat Tillman would fucking hate, Lauren. in Bobert. No doubt about it. Like, he's not one of them.
Starting point is 00:24:56 And the way they've, like, you know, bastardized his legacy or whatever, it always pisses me off anytime it comes up. Because the NFL does it every fucking year, you know, when it's like fucking troops months or whatever they do. It's all Pat Tillman, totally ignoring how all that shit with him really went down
Starting point is 00:25:14 and who he really was. I can't stand it. He was emailing with that college professor. I couldn't have his name right now. He writes all his left-wing books. who like conservative considering like a traitor, right? Because they are a communist or whatever. Pat Timber was writing friendly emails with him about how much the war sucked.
Starting point is 00:25:28 And then he got shot in the back of the head by his own troops on accident. Let's say accident. And then because it and then everyone just pretended he wasn't anti-war for the rest of existence. And it's like, it's fucking insane. He should have played, should stay playing football. And then DeSantis, of course, because he's got to get on every fucking stupid thing he got going, went on Benny Johnson's YouTube show. And this whole thing, we'll just watch a little bit of it, Matt.
Starting point is 00:25:54 Just to see how fucking weird this whole thing is. Bud Light, got to get your take on the boycott. So you just brought up Anizer Bush. Bud Light's getting hit, hit as hard as I've ever seen it. Why do you want to drink Bud Light? I mean, like, honestly, that's like them rubbing our faces in it. And it's like these companies that do this. There it is.
Starting point is 00:26:13 The Sanchez goes on to say when he wants a beer. Instead, he drinks Guinness. I was like, okay, I was going to go see who owns Guinness or who's found in Guinness and what they're about. But Guinness was founded by a guy named Arthur Guinness, who was very politically active, and this is in 1700s, Ireland, his primary political positions were concerned the rights, he's a Protestant, he concerned the rights of Catholics to fully participate in Irish politics and society. Arthur Guinness was woke, Trey. He wanted rights for Catholics. So, yeah, nothing makes any fucking sense. Everybody has to have a fucking insane take on this.
Starting point is 00:26:48 here's one in the National Review Today Transgenderism is the new black face Let me quote from this If black face is racist Then woman face is sexist And I can't figure out what my favorite word in there is I think it's if
Starting point is 00:27:02 If black face is racist Yeah Some of them are not solid on that But Everybody like this is so dumb They're having to be even dumber They actually are Mike Lee or the Mormon senator
Starting point is 00:27:17 from Utah. So Dylan Mulvaney was an actor before he transitioned. He was on Broadway and plays like the Book of Mormon. So he went and found a picture of Dylan in a cast photo and said this person's always been a hateful bigot. I'm like the book of Mormon is not at the play is not anti-Mormon and even Mormons know that.
Starting point is 00:27:40 Like I went and found takes from people on it. Because have you seen the Book of Mormon turn? Yeah, it's fucking awesome. I absolutely love it. It's hilarious. It's really, really good as far as musical, as far as musical, you know, we talked about four amount of musical guy. But like, the play does not, I guess Trey Parker and Matt Stone, they're kind of anti-religious. You'd expect them to make more into like shit, but they don't. They're depicted as really nice people who mean well, helps a bunch of people in Uganda, even if they don't completely buy their faith. It does make fun of the sillier elements of the faith, but every religion is silly shit in it.
Starting point is 00:28:08 You know, it's like, you write this stuff down on paper and all, that's why that's why it requires faith, right? So, but anyway, they're just pretending. And this is like, but this shit is causing real world stuff. Like, didn't really read this headline, Budweiser Factory and Van Nuys targeted with bomb threat. People were threatened to blow up. Guys are working Budweiser factories did not get a say on how the marketing department spent 0.101, 0.001% of their yearly marketing budget. In one source of the stories. I mean, dude, I had some buddies.
Starting point is 00:28:42 There was a Budweiser distribution. factory or plan or whatever you want to call it near my hometown. I had a bunch of red-ass buddies who worked for Budweiser. And, yeah, they definitely weren't asked about the influencer marketing strategy. I wonder what those guys think about all this, actually, now that I've thought about it. The video itself is very innocuous. She sits at a table talking about how she loves drinking Bud-like during March Madness. Now, it's so tongue-in-cheek because you can tell the subtext.
Starting point is 00:29:13 say she doesn't like Bud Light or basketball. So the whole thing is a fucking joke. And they're trying to start World War III over it. It's fucking, it's, uh, I can't, I can't get my brain. That's one of the reason DeSantis has crashed. We talked about it last week, but like, what does this look like to a regular person? Right. Yeah, pretty ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:29:34 You can't get my brain around it either. Perhaps our guest tonight will be able to help us make sense of some of these things. You guys know them and love him if you've been the part of the extended ske universe for a while. Then you know him all too well. He's from well-read, my partner in crime, Mr. Drew Morgan, who has got a new mini special out on YouTube right now called Tennessee's a drag. Matt, let's play the clip from that and then bring Drew on it. Also, how are they going to enforce it?
Starting point is 00:30:01 Let's think about that. They're going to force the drag queens underground and then what? They're going to crack down on underground drag parties? How? A sting operation? Who's going to force? volunteer for that. Imagine fat, redneck, sweaty, probably diabetic, Tennessee cops going undercover at a drag show. They'll have a meeting. The police chief's in there. All right, governor says
Starting point is 00:30:30 we've got to crack down on these queens. If we're going to go undercover, we're looking for volunteers. That is the quietest the rednecks will ever be in there. One dude will be like, Terry's a good singer. There might be one motorcycle cop who's like, I'll do it. It's not going to work. Best case scenario, best case scenario, a few cops find themselves. I don't mean they like figure out that they're gay, but just like that they have that moment. Well, they're like sitting on a stool after a really hard performance, just like, this fucking bra's itchy as shit.
Starting point is 00:31:11 I can't believe I got through that dolly pardon. song and the queen walks by and high-fize them. It's like, your skirt matches your eyes and then he forgives the wound his father, game. All righty, everybody. There he is. What's up, fellas? You guys look great in your Memphis, man. I tried to
Starting point is 00:31:29 match you. Drew lonely this shirt. We watched the Lakers game on Sunday and it was hilarious because the bar is, of course, full of Lakers fans. And after it was over, Drew caught some guy filming him looking sad.
Starting point is 00:31:46 I called him out. I was like, at least let me look at it, dude. That's funny. Well, to be fair, Drew, you did that to Mark during a Cowboys game once. You were filming his reactions. He wasn't as much sad as, you know, frothing and everything, but that was a lot of fun. So, yeah. How's it going, buddy?
Starting point is 00:32:05 Man, it's pretty good. Having a decent day here, other than Memphis losing. The special's live. Man, the clips. The clips are doing well. special itself. I guess 13 minutes is too long for some people. It'd be like that, but you know, build up some momentum.
Starting point is 00:32:22 Yeah, well, if I can't, I'm going to be honest. I'm just going to beg you to put it on your channel next week. And you can call it Craig Crowder Presents and have all the money. All right. We might be able to work that out. We're all Tennessee out here. Me and Drew are Tennessee guys. How you,
Starting point is 00:32:38 how you feeling about the homeland, Drew? man pretty frustrated it's interesting I had to watch myself over and over while editing the special because I did it all myself and people wondering what I'm talking about I got a new special out called Tennessee's a drag it's about 13 minutes long it's a mini special and it's just 13 minutes on what you just saw
Starting point is 00:32:56 from that clip me talking about the drag band and what it really is and what I think we should do in response to it which has got me some plaque but um man I'm not I'm not feeling great and then when that shooting happened that's created a whole hornets nest too and obviously the shooter identified as a trans person and it's just been
Starting point is 00:33:16 a nightmare of culture war which is bullshit and actual policy wars which are very important and scary and the sort of end diagram where those overlap it's wild like it's wild when you read the law and i know we'll get into that it's it's dark man it's making me feel down for the first time of my life i'm not sure i'll ever move back there yeah i mean i've been the exact same boat uh man you talked about that in Portland. It's definitely had a pretty major effect on me. But, you know, so yeah, you law school, you were a lawyer for a while if we're going full time in comedy. The drag bill has for now been shut down or put on pause or however you want to put it by a federal judge, right? What's your take on that?
Starting point is 00:34:03 I wasn't really that's a person. I wasn't that surprised. I mean, it was a Trump appointee, but this law is so poorly written. It's written by, a person who thinks they're clever and they're trying to win a PR ward on a legal battle. So anytime you're dealing with the First Amendment and everyone listening, pardon me for a second, A, I'm not going to be very funny and B, I may not be able to synthesize this and express it to you that well. But in the legal world, when you're trying to deal with, when you're trying to suppress speech,
Starting point is 00:34:29 which everyone's kind of on board with, that's what's going on here. This is a free speech issue. When the government says you can't do a thing as it relates to free speech, they have to pass what's called the highest constitution. test. It's called strict scrutiny. And what I mean by that is when the courts look at a government saying we're going to restrict free speech, the government has to prove to the courts that there's a compelling state interest and that they've gone about it in the least restrictive means possible. In this case, they're saying we are trying to protect kids from sexualization or sexual activities or sexual performances. And everyone says, okay, I get it. The state should do that. It's just like, putting an X rating on a movie, right? Like, the state should be involved in making sure children don't see things they shouldn't.
Starting point is 00:35:18 But then that second part where they go, and you have to do it in the least restrictive way possible, the wording of this bill, it's so clearly aimed at trans people too. And it's so clearly aimed at drag people just doing anything in public while in drag. And that's just not at all legal. by anyone's stretch of that word and that's why a Trump appointed judge was like pump the brakes here and what he's really doing in my opinion
Starting point is 00:35:46 is throwing it back to them saying hey rewrite this and by the way because this is what a Trump appointed judge gets you it doesn't give you yet we're not full fascist it doesn't give you yet carte blanche to do whatever the hell you want to trans people but it does probably give you a few tries
Starting point is 00:36:03 at writing this law in a way that they can sort of be like all right yep this is about protecting kids and not about just making people not be able to cross-dress in public or address by the gender they identify in public which is like the supreme court went back and forth to the trump administration eventually found a version of the muslim band they would let happen right um that so you at every level so maybe i was thinking last night about why this stuff is so upsetting to me as a person who's not drag performer or trans or whatever it's like it's more it's sort of like being weirdo from the south you know and like having people try to deprive you of any sense of community um i was reading about the group that filed this lawsuit is called friends of george and i was like i wonder who friends of george are and i went to read up about last
Starting point is 00:36:53 night. They were originally found in 2010 to produce a reunion for a historic Memphis Drag Bar called George's Disco. The original one opened in 1969, but closed in the 80s, probably because, you know, not a lot of gay people survived the 80s. And at Georgia's disco in its time, was among the few places the LBTQ people could go and feel safe to be themselves. Its owner, George Wilson, made sure the club was open even on holidays so people would have a place to go if they were not welcome at home. Now, that fucking made me cry. I was listening to my computer cried and my wife asked me what was wrong. had to tell this story and made her cry.
Starting point is 00:37:25 And, but it's, it's sort of like inspiring, like, because it's like, you know, the Mr. Rogers thing, look for the helpers, you know? Um, because there are decent people. It's just like, it's just so fucking depressing, man. It's like, and it also, like, trans people are the canaries in the coal mine for this fascist movement. If they, like, it's like, if you think it doesn't affect you,
Starting point is 00:37:44 it's like, well, you're going to eventually be on some group as the first they came for the communist, it's poem, right? Yeah. And I think Trey touched on, something on well read which will be out tomorrow but we recorded it earlier where he was going all the way back to his first rant that went mega viral and in that video you said tray um stop being a pussy and say what you mean you know they freak you out it's wild how that part they freak you out has been the sort of um onus for what you just said mark this is the canary in the coal mine trans people seem to be the thing that they can latch onto and scare like midwest housewives who are very like myopic in their worldview. They're there with their community and their kids, and they just want to get by and blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:38:29 And then, you know, Fox News or whoever comes in and what's scary to them? And once upon a time, it was the black super predator. Once upon a time, it was gay people are going to fuck your kids. And now it's trans people and drag queens. They keep shifting it, but they're trying to latch on to something that everyone has a fear of. And I think that's why it bothers me too, Mark.
Starting point is 00:38:50 And also, I got a good buddy from Nashville. who, you know, he's gay and he's in that world, and he's talked to me about those bars. I've been to some with him. I referenced one of the queens I met, which I won't, you know, mention my name, and I didn't on the recording. I ended up putting out.
Starting point is 00:39:05 But, like, they are open on Christmas, and it's not just because they're like, well, this is the only place for some of these folks. It's the only place for the owner, too. That's their home. And if I'm being completely honest with you, and I might annoy people on both sides or whatever with this one, I think part of the reason it irks me,
Starting point is 00:39:24 going back to that weirdo-sout southerner comment you made, I was raised very religious. And while I shunned a lot of that, because I realized it was a vehicle for being hateful, and I don't believe the way some of those folks believe, et cetera, et cetera, it's in me now to seek out similar things. It's why I go to music festivals.
Starting point is 00:39:42 I still seek out like a communal experience. This is church for those people. And what I mean by that is, it is the community where they go and they grieve together. They celebrate together. And now I'm going to get emotional. I think it's beautiful that that's who sued and stopped the bill.
Starting point is 00:39:59 Yeah. On the ground, the reaction has been pretty interesting. I found this piece from a couple days ago. The drag brunch that Tennessee wants to ban. Essentially, what's happened is this has given a lot of free PR to events like this.
Starting point is 00:40:11 A lot more people are going. Yeah, and they're all drinking Bud Live. Yeah. And so there are some really cool pictures in it. Because, like, they're freaking out over this. I mean, Trey going on about it. I don't want to be repetitive. But the idea that this is somehow super perverted and sexual,
Starting point is 00:40:27 it's a guy at a nice dress seeing karaoke called serving brunch. You know, it's like, this is, you've got to really squint really hard to feel threatened by this. There's a bunch of pictures like kids tipping the performers. Here's a good old boy who just moved to Memphis and is up there. He was karaoke and Celine Dion. This is the kind of person that goes to it. It's not some weird super freak.
Starting point is 00:40:49 It's a guy looks like. drink beer in my dad. He's having a great thing. He's forgiven the wound his father gave him. Yeah, there you go. And then this picture of the crowd made you think a lot because, like, I remember there's a viral conservative meme from like 2018 or something. It was a picture of like a woman and a burqa and a trans woman sitting next to each other's
Starting point is 00:41:07 subway and they're like, this is the future liberals once. And I was like, well, one, it's literally the present. Right. And yeah, two people with probably diametrically opposed worldviews and religious beliefs. sitting peacefully next to each other on a ride to work where they make their bread in a peaceful prosperity that kind of yeah why not a ride that costs three dollars yeah yeah also that's the future that uh community college brochure photographers have been gunning for for you know 20 years now yeah so yeah uh mark when you want to you want to you want to move into our
Starting point is 00:41:47 oh yeah so you're well Drew Drew do you have you because we got a little an idea for some fun we're gonna try we very rarely have fun on the show we're gonna try to oh and uh having me on made you want to have fun man my brand is changing in a good way thank God so I'm looking forward to it but I you know if you had something else you want to say about Tennessee
Starting point is 00:42:07 or this whole thing then go ahead otherwise we'll I still want everyone to know that Tennessee's a fucking dope place please don't do that stupid thing people do where they start talking about the whole state as if the whole state is represented by these fucking pieces of shit. Sorry, can I cuss on here? I know I can.
Starting point is 00:42:24 Don't do that. You know, we're very gerrymandered and there are some awful people, but it is getting worse. Pay attention to the fact that Ben Shapiro and Tommy Loren are moving there. You know, I'll just say that. Like,
Starting point is 00:42:33 I called it Tennessee's a drag because it's a clever wordplay, but Tennessee still rules. It's just scary. And I'll acknowledge that. But I guess that's the only thing I want to say. And also, watch the special. Even if you don't want to watch it, hit play on it and turn the sound down.
Starting point is 00:42:46 somebody made that point the other day on Twitter about how like when you say we should just cut off these states or just like let them secede or whatever it's like a bunch of cool gay black Latino Muslim people live in Tennessee and you're just throwing them in the trash you can feel morally superior well it's made I'm sorry I've made the point I posted the lyrics of sweetheart Alabama of Ronnie Van Zant making that point in 1974 in a mild pushback to a Neil Young song that Neil Young agreed with talking about how just because George Wallace lives here, we try to stop him, but we're not responsible for his fuckery anymore than you guys. We're all responsible for Nixon. And then people were in my mentions telling me that
Starting point is 00:43:28 Neil Young was right, even though Neil Young later admitted he was wrong. It's so fucking stupid. Well, and also, to be fair to those people, even Ronnie's fans didn't get it. So no one, it's like, there's like 8% of people who care about Litterd who got the point of that song. I once won an argument with a guy. uh by telling him to sing sweet home alabama uh and then telling him to sing anything other than the line southern man of southern man and he couldn't because that song's not a good fucking song the melody's garbage uh the last thing i want to say before we move on uh i made this drink it just turned out this color it's a it's a cocktail but i'm calling it uh mountain skews nice
Starting point is 00:44:05 okay so mark had the idea you know again we already said you were a lawyer for a few years you were a defense attorney. In fact, Mark has found some pretty dumb legal cases involved some pretty dumb people out there in this country right now and was hoping you could give us your take on it. Maybe I offer some legal advice for what you would do. Do you want me to defend these people? Yes. Is that what you? Yeah. Okay. I saw it and I chose not to read too much because I wanted to be surprised, but that will make my legal advice much worse. Okay. So let's start with this headline. Topeka man brought down in Walmart after allegedly exposing himself to
Starting point is 00:44:41 team. So what this guy was doing. Look at that fine. He was mad at Bud Light for the trans influencer thing. He was smashing up all the Bud Light and throwing cans around a Walmart plus Bush Light. I thought I'd show in the video, but it's like long and from far away and it's just the guy throwing beer cans, the person
Starting point is 00:44:59 recording and being like, what the fuck, bro? Which is like, there's not these people look to all the rest of us who are normal. Like, what the fuck, bro? He's just smashing. So this guy was mad mad about Bud Light trying to turn everyone into a pervert so he was confronted about throwing beer cans showed a teenager his dick, all right? At the same time?
Starting point is 00:45:17 Because I saw apparently only part of that video. Yeah, the dick, the dick showing wasn't the video. It was at the same time? While he was there doing that, he also pulled his dick out and showed a teenager. I mean, look, I'm cooking up a defense. Okay, here we go. Is it time for me? Is that it?
Starting point is 00:45:36 Yeah. The defense, the prosecutor rests. Okay. Your Honor, who among us when we're smashing bud lights has it had the urge to get our dicks out? I mean, I would argue that if you see a man, throw this picture back up for me, please real quick. If you see this man, Peyton Manning chucking bush lights down the aisle and you walk over there and you're surprised to see his dicks out, I mean, that's a little bit on you. And also it says 16 or older. Okay, at some point, it's on the parents to teach their kids.
Starting point is 00:46:16 Don't you go near a man who's throwing bushlights down the aisle 15? By the way, also, I didn't see the dick part of the video, thank God. He threw a one can at the person filming and nearly hit them from like a full Walmart aisle away. So I guess what I'm getting at is we've got a lot going on with this. Look, he's had a hard life. He clearly peaked in high school. he was the quarterback of his football team. They probably went six and four,
Starting point is 00:46:42 but they should have once stayed if that damn ref hadn't a screwed us. And he's been carrying that his whole life. And you expect him not to get his dick out at Walmart? I think we can all, at the very least, Your Honor, let's give him probation. You think some college football recruiter is going to see that arm, like a blindside style until you start getting ideas? Yeah, like a Division 2 guy who's really into MAGA,
Starting point is 00:47:05 which, you know, surprise, surprise, there's a lot of those. Yeah. You get on a college football message board is essentially Q&9, Q&9 land. His third leg's not very big, but his right arm. It's in there. My favorite example of one of those people. He wasn't being, like, hateful, but it was just funny.
Starting point is 00:47:21 It's like a famous post from an Alabama fan message board. And it was when Tua Tunga Viola had just been signed and was coming there as a freshman, right, in Alabama. They posted on there as like, does anyone know how Tua has said, in? Like, is he learning the language? How does he feel about being in the two is from Hawaii? And this guy, like, he was so sincere. Yeah, he was so sincere. He's like, I just hope we're, you know, making him feel welcome since he's from another country and can't speak English and all this.
Starting point is 00:47:53 Yeah. Yeah, imagine I'm doing it for this guy. Does anyone know how Terry's settling in now that he can't smash Bud Lights? Like, are we getting him, you know, a pillow to punch? How's his anger management classes going? I can't imagine being so mad at a brand that I get. jail time. By the way, was this a trap? Like, you guys brought me on here to defend clearly a sexual deviant and pedophile. I was like, well, this is going to be fun. I'll defend people who've done goofy things.
Starting point is 00:48:19 This is that's like the worst guy ever. I didn't even necessarily think about it in terms of like you being their lawyer, just from like a lawyer's perspective or whatever. Guys, you can do either way. You don't talk about the bit. You do the bit. Well, I know. The bit's just more fun when the crime is like, you know, Tray's famous line,
Starting point is 00:48:37 breeding illegal reptiles. I'll defend that. But let's do it. Fuck it. Bring me the rest of them, dude. I mean, I used to do this. I'd defend anybody except a cop. I'll never defend a cop.
Starting point is 00:48:48 This is going to like this one. A man who threatened to Merriam Webster over gender inclusive definitions with sentence to prison. This guy tried to threaten to blow up the dictionary. How do you get mad at the fucking dictionary, dog? You ain't ever been mad at the dictionary, Mark. You smarmy, son of a bitch. You ain't ever been mad at the textbook.
Starting point is 00:49:07 Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, who among us ain't been mad at a book because we didn't like how hard the words were. I'm not going to say they were mad at the dictionary, but like a lot of people I went to school with did not hold the dictionary in a very high regard. I can tell you. I'm not just talking about the way they talked.
Starting point is 00:49:22 Like they used to make fun of me for reading the dictionary, which I didn't do. I just knew words. So they made it a thing that I read the dictionary for fun. So, you know, a lot of people don't, dictionary don't hear for a lot of people, Mark. Maybe not to this level. Maybe not to like trying to take down big,
Starting point is 00:49:37 words like bits aside if i'm reading all the facts here this guy click the contact us button on uh the website of miriam webster and wrote i'm going to shoot up and bomb your offices and then called them marxas could i just like honestly guys you're not going to like this people listening that should be legal dude if you're a huge corporation and you have a contact us button i should be able to say whatever the fuck I want on there this is America ain't it like a part of me genuinely like fuck this guy if he had gone in
Starting point is 00:50:15 or called him or like sent an email to a person you know like Bill at Merriam Webster that's fucked up but there's something really dark about our faceless corporate world that we live in and have if you click the contact us button and it's a huge company
Starting point is 00:50:30 it's Merriam Webster Nike like it's a household name you should be able to say whatever you want like Like, honestly, sometimes I go to contacts, contact us at Ford and just say whatever's in my heart, just because I feel like nobody's reading those. As a person who once got a 24-hour suspension from Twitter for telling a hedge fund's promoted tweet to eat shit and I, I sort of agree with you. That's what I'm saying. Like, I don't like why he told him he was going to shoot up and bomb their offices. And again, if he had said it to a person, if it was John Johnson at Miriam Webster, fuck that.
Starting point is 00:51:04 but he was just tweeting into the ether man okay but i got more i got some more context for you because he also threatened the president of the university of north texas that was because uh some some protesters there shadowed down a conservative activist who was yelling about trans and stuff um he also threatened Walt Disney company probably fine with that professors at loyal at mariont university and a toy company hasbro which i'm betting he was mad about the mr potato head uh that also kind of proves that like he's just talking shit right like if he did this same thing to he does it to everybody that ever does anything woke right he ain't
Starting point is 00:51:46 mom nobody like goddamn okay okay but so in general my client is a coward but he's not a criminal I'm for way fewer people going to prison but this guy's a serial death threat and bomb threat maker and he only got he got a year in one day of which he's only end up serving four more months. And I contrast that with a, I was listening to a, you know, one of my legal podcast here today. And the case they were talking about was a guy who got life in prison because of three strikes laws because he shoved three golf clubs down his pant leg and smuggled them
Starting point is 00:52:19 out of the store in one of the funniest crimes possible. So that guy died in prison. This guy gets four months for threatened to blow up the dictionary. Drew, the prosecution arrests. well not hold up you're the prosecution you did the first part don't start equating the defense with putting the guy away for I want everyone out there listening you can't paint the defense guy as being responsible for what the prosecution did
Starting point is 00:52:46 to my homie who was trying to get the three wood out to his friends so they could teach their kid out of play golf and finally get out of the hood but that being said I will say that one year and a day is the minimum for a felony in a lot of jurisdictions that's what that is about. So like, yeah, fuck this judge. Fuck this guy. Like, in my heart of hearts, I want everyone listening. Fuck this. Marcus, who's making me defend these people. And like, dude, this guy is also, he just sounds boring. Like, that's the other thing. Like,
Starting point is 00:53:16 be funny with it. Do you know what I mean? Like, if you're going to call Hasbro, just like, be like, I'm going to, I'm going to blow up your company and turn everyone into French fries or whatever. You know what I mean? Like, how's that for Mrs. Tate ahead? I think, threatened Alahou Akbar rip your, pull the cord in your vest in a room full of Mr. Potato Ed's is objectively a funny crime. That's not what I'm saying. Be fun with it.
Starting point is 00:53:39 Mark, hit him with this last one we got here. All right. Listen, stop the steel organizer. We're talking about, what's it, Ali, Ali Alexander. We talked about him before. Stop the steel organizer, apologizes after being accused of asking teen boys for dick picks. Jesus. I'm just going to go ahead and rest.
Starting point is 00:53:53 Back to this, Drew. More pains and decks. I'm reading the facts here. He said in a statement that this is too gay. You know what? I agree. I don't think you could have convinced me something was too gay, but I don't know what he means by that.
Starting point is 00:54:15 He's described himself. I'm reading the facts here. He's described himself as bisexual in the past. Dude, these people, man, all right, look, it would be funny what is happening with the MAGA movement, except that we have to take them seriously. Does that make sense? Like these people are like an STD that your friend got?
Starting point is 00:54:35 Like do you have a dumb friend who you care a lot about? Like you met in college and like, you know, he knows where the bodies are, you're loyal to him forever. And he gets an STD. And it would be the funniest fucking thing, except that you know he's not going to take care of it and he's going to accidentally give other people that STD.
Starting point is 00:54:52 That's what MAGA is. It's your stupid party boyfriend where you're like, look man this was funny when we were 20 but it's serious now you've gotten three girls pregnant you have two kids one of them died already probably your fault like you need to grow up that's what's going on with maga that would be the funniest fucking story in the world him going this was too gay except if trump wins again this guy will be the secretary of defense yeah he's not exaggerating yeah he's uh for context for the viewers ali alexander he organized up the steel like we said he was supposed to speak
Starting point is 00:55:26 and open for Trump in the January 6th rally he's good buddies with Nick Fuentes who's like hanging out at Moralago with Trump so like and by the way he didn't he didn't deny this like Drew said he confessed to it and apologized not for hitting on teen boys but because just that was like yeah I'm somewhat gay but sexing teenagers
Starting point is 00:55:49 is too gay being gay is not the problem here buddy the problems of their fucking children you know what judge you're right your honor my bad that was a little too gay even for me and again would be hilarious except it's like florida is our government now yeah i agree yeah they're uh they're zany misadventures and idiosyncrasies are oftentimes very funny but they're also terrifying at the same time hey matt if you want to put up a couple of comments or something since drew's here and we'll, you know, be done. While Matt's, Matt did a really good job.
Starting point is 00:56:28 Speaking of Matt, he's got a thing. Speaking of Matt doing a good job, Matt and I have a radio show that's all about country music. That's pretty sweet. You can find it on a forgotten country radio show.com. I just want to plug that real quick. It does sweet. Does he have to play any clips or anything on that show? No, he does not.
Starting point is 00:56:47 I understand that this is a problem for him in the past. what's funny about them complimenting him is like this episode only had like three videos in it yeah Debbie Lynn Robinson says hit that like button
Starting point is 00:56:59 thank you Debbie you guys know that the fans are turning on Matt right you guys know these stories right like Matt comes our live shows and his wife very proudly is like you know
Starting point is 00:57:07 he's the producer of skews and then the fans are like how hard is it to play a fucking video we know we told him that last week and that's what led to this whole thing that's why I'm like me and Mark started bagging on Matt and then
Starting point is 00:57:20 a lot of the people in the chat start being like, oh, Matt's great, leave him alone. And he just, he chooses the comment. So he puts the ones up and he's like, you know, who's awesome, Matt. And that's Matt putting that there, you know. Oh, man. And there, Natalie Nichols, long time denizen of this universe says,
Starting point is 00:57:35 Hey, Drew, honey, I'd hire you to defend me anytime. This feels vaguely like she's hitting on me. Is that, is that her vibe? Is this like a me ma'amaw who's a little too horny? She's sweet, my mom, oh, sweet. Okay. Maybe I made it very. It just felt like she was like, you can defend me.
Starting point is 00:57:49 A nice lady. leave her alone. My bad. I would hire Drew to be my lawyer because Drew actually did carry very much about his clients, which is why he's no longer a public defender and couldn't do it anymore. That case we talked about earlier where the guy who basically shipped his client to jail
Starting point is 00:58:04 if he was seen him for 15 minutes before a two-hour trial. Drew actually works so he didn't make any money. He didn't take enough cases. There you go. Oh yeah. I mean, I literally almost died from the stress of the fact that people were going to prison because I was not perfect. Well, anyway, let's not get into that. Let's try to
Starting point is 00:58:20 And I want to apologize to Natalie. I know who Natalie is, too. If I'm not mistaken, her daughter is a lawyer. Thank you, Natalie. I'm sorry. It's just that I'm always looking for me-mills, which is a me-ma. I'd like first get to know better.
