Episode Date: October 21, 2020

this week the boys talk about the importance of voting and local elections, and also drew bit into a turkey that still had a bullet in it and had to go to the dentist 

And we thank them for sponsoring the show. Well, no, I'll just go ahead. I mean, look, I'm money dumb. Y'all know that. I've been money dumb ever, since ever, my whole life. And the modern world makes it even harder to not be money dumb, in my opinion, because you used to, you, like, had to write down everything you spent or you wouldn't know nothing. But now you got apps and stuff on your phone.

It's just like, you can just, it makes it easier to lose count of, well, your count, the count every month, how much you're spending. A lot of people don't even know how much they spend on a per month basis. I'm not going to lie, I can be one of those people. Like, let me ask you right now, skewers out, whatnot, sorry, well-read people, people across the skew universe, I should say. Do you even know how many subscriptions that you actively pay for every month or every year? Do you even know? Do you know how much you spend on takeout or delivery,

getting a paid chauffeur for your chicken low mane? Because that's a thing that we do in this society. Do you know how much you spend on that? It's probably more than you think. But now there's an app designed to help you manage your money better, and it's called Rocket Money. Rocket Money is a personal finance app that helps find and cancel your unwanted subscriptions,

monitors your spending, and helps lower your bills so you can grow your savings. Rocket Money shows all your expenses in one place, including subscriptions you already forgot about. If you see a subscription, you don't want anymore, Rocket Money will help you cancel it. Their dashboard lays out your whole financial picture, including the due dates for all your bills and the pay days.

In a way that's easier for you to digest, you can even automatically create, custom budgets based on your past spending. Rocket Money's 5 million members have saved a total of $500 million in canceled subscription with members saving up to $740 a year when they use all of the apps. Premium features. I used Rocket Money and realized that I had apparently been paying for two different language learning services that I just wasn't using.

So I was like, I should know Spanish. I'll learn Spanish. and I've just been paying to learn Spanish without practicing any Spanish for, you know, pertinent two years now or something like that. Also, a fun one, I'd said it before, but I got an app, lovely little app where you could, you know,

put your friend's faces onto funny reaction gifts and stuff like that. So obviously I got it so I could put Corey's face on those two, those two like twins from the Tim Burton Alice in Wonderland movies. You know, those weren't a little like the Q-ball looking twin fellas. Yeah. So that was money. What was that a reply gift for?

Just when I did something stupid. Something fat, I think, and stupid. Something both fat and stupid. But anyway, that was money well spent at first. But then I quit using it and was still paying for it and forgotten. If it wasn't for Rocket Money, I never would have even figured it out. So shout out to them. They help.

If you're money dumb like me, Rocket Money can help. So cancel your unwanted subscriptions and reach your financial goals faster with Rocket Money.

They're the liberal rednecks they like cornbread but sex they care way too much but don't give a fun. They're the liberal rednecks that makes some people

people upset, but they got three big old dicks that you can suck. Here we are. Here we are. Drew went to the dentist. We taught we teed that up last week. Won't you pay that off? Did it hit? I know it didn't.

Didn't hit. Is your mouth here? I got there. I know it doesn't. No. Yeah, that's right. I did not crack my tooth according to the x-ray, but I didn't get to see the dentist. He ate bullet meat back home.

Well, apparently they had too many bullet meat. cases. Yeah, I bet. Bullet meat season. It really is. It really is. I know. So I'm a beer.

I was a lover season. I'm trying to go to the goddamn dentist in the middle of bullet meat season. Yeah. There's kids screaming. I was at a doctor's office slash Dennis and they share a reception area. And the receptionist, one of them didn't have a mask on. At a doctor's office. There was three boxes of masks literally right beside her.

You know, it's weird because, like, we interpret that as, it's unfortunate because we interpret that as, man, if anyone should know better, it's her. Whereas, like, I know certain people that'll be like, see, she ain't wearing one. Fuck it. It's fake. She knows. That's really, that's terrible. Yeah, I'm certain that the $8 an hour answers phones don't even have teeth, but working out of a dentist office, but has four kids, a lady, no secrets about the pandemic. No, I hear you. See, who I was talking about was idiots. No, I know. But, like, based in that, you know, like, she had on, you know, scrubs.

They was loony turns. That lady just, you know, she just has a job. Right. Well, look, far bad for me. Because if y'all last week, I retold the story of that exact lady you're talking about, I took her dental advice as the gospel for 16 years, you know. No. No, no, that was the lady in the room with you.

That's true. I know. It wasn't the exact same thing. We literally talked about the phone answer. I know, I know. But also, like, I don't want to, you know, turns out that lady knew what she was talking about. I almost felt like, I thought about that later. I was like, I don't know, I kind of feel like a dick.

Because, I mean, you know, hell, she's a professional. But it's still ridiculous to just take one, you know, second opinions are thing for a reason. You know what I mean? Well, on that note, oh, sorry. No, go ahead, go ahead. The doctor was late as hell. We had an important meeting. an hour and a half at the time

and I'd been there for two hours I was like fuck I just I gotta go do this Zoom call I have to leave they had taken my x-ray and that's it and the lady went to tell the doctor I was leaving and she came back and she said well he said just make another appointment so you can get you know fillings because you'll need them anyway and I was like

what's he basing that on he ain't been in my mouth there is an x-ray that exists there's no way he's seen it by now I mean, look, you're in Morgan County, so it could be very different. I'm sure it is very different. But, like, obviously, you know, as I talked about last week, I just went to the dentist. When they did my x-rays, it was literally instantaneous on a screen right beside my face. Like, it was, I mean, instantly, there was no, like, turnaround time. And the doctor just had to look over at the screen.

The dentists had to look at the screen and was like, yep, this don't hit, whatever, you know. What I'm saying is a doctor never came in there. She went and found him and was like, hey, he's literally. even. Yeah. He never came in. Like I said, he also probably just totally assumed, you know. Yeah.

His boy, eating bullet mate. But his tape down hit. I really. I really went to make sure I didn't crack my tooth. I didn't. And now I'm in fucking mode. Yeah. Shit.

Hold up. I'll be right back. God damn it. Get your fucking ass. God damn it. Uh-oh. Oh. Oh.

Where we go? Is he naked? Lotto. I don't know. I hope he's naked and I wish we could follow him. Wish more than anything he had an Amevo camera right now that would track him. Yeah, follow him around while he chases down this fucking dog or pot-bellied pig or whatever's running around his house. He needs a choke cam and like he can wear a helmet and that would suit him anyway.

Damn it. Well, what it was. Amber, I made some fucking, it's called Jumping Jack Chicken. I reckon it's one of them Hello Fresh gimmicks. I made it for lunch and Amber just left Jumping jack chicken Jumping jack chicken

I'm intrigued Don't know what it is Please go on It hits Sounds like it's It's like a It's like a It means a Mexican chicken bowl

It's got melted pepper jack cheese On top of it And like southwestern shit sour cream All that stuff You just kind of So did the chicken run away? No

Amber just Amber's not feeling Amber came home from school just not long ago not feeling well you know she had surgery last week and um i had made that for lunch and she had a bowl and she just left it on the table and my fucking dog i guess he just now got it's been up there for a while but he just now got brave enough like he's smart enough to know like all right daddy's on the headphones and mama's gone it's just fucking time to go so he was about to pull that down he was about to pull that down and get it all over the goddamn white couch and also it

would not hit for him to eat that so i had to go do a thing up, baby. No, doing things under control. This is, I don't know what, what's your face about? I thought Drew fucked off again, but I just realized that he. I mean, as far as I can tell, he did. He keeps disappearing on my screen, but then popping back up. But what do you mean disappearing?

Isn't there just a picture of me? No. No, well, it looks like you left a meeting. It's because we and Corp both have that option turned on where it automatically hides non-video participants. So when your video shuts off, you just go away. Yeah, I just assume it's your internet or something. No, I'm having to reschedule a later meeting because everything is run long today, literally everything.

And so I'm having to like answer emails. Well, I got a lot of stuff for this too, so probably be here for a while. That ain't true. Good. This is going to be, I'm concerned, embarrassing for only me, depending on how you all answer it. But I got reminded of the existence of something I'd totally forgotten about the other day. did y'all have we're, because we all went to high school about the same time, were promise rings a thing?

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Because I mean, you got to figure. Did y'all ever? Yeah, say, that's why I thought. I fucked. No, they were a thing. Yon'all was a shit, Amber.

It was a promise ring. Yeah, but you still have porker, though, right? Y'all are talking about two different types. See, that's, okay. Well, that's what I also wanted to discuss what even, what even really are those? You're talking about, Trey, and I think I had one of them, although it might have been a necklace.

I don't know. But like, you just give your girlfriend a present and then she just tells you that you promised to marry her. Yeah. Yeah. Ours was a church thing. Yeah. Oh, okay.

That's also a thing. I didn't know that because, see, like, in my experience, promised to be good. All that. It was promised to be good, but like specifically you promised. But it was the same thing in terms of you gave it to a girl and you promise, hey, neither of us will hit. and then one day we'll both marry each other and I'll only have your pussy forever.

So like, because in my day, like all that shit will do this as soon as we turn 18, and this will not lead to pain later on, not to mention the complete downfall of our culture. All that, all that. Well, so either way, I do the church part of it either, at the very least, it completely makes sense to me. And I feel like maybe I was aware that that was all that. To me, that's the only way it makes sense. I know. Well, the one that I have with Bag of Shud Amber was what Drew has said,

which is just like it's like a commitment. Like, I ain't given you a wedding ring. We ain't getting engaged right now, but this is me like committing myself to you. Yeah. Which is also cringeworthy, but the Lord had nothing to do with it. And either way, in either version of them,

I just think it's funny that promise rings are like pretty much exclusive broken. Like, yeah. That never, like, like, what is,

what is the batting average? Oh, horrible. Like, it's close to zero. All right. Let me, because teenagers traffic in it,

you know, and so it's like, it just means less than. I mean, yeah, like the divorce rate for adults is over 50. And that's what,

that's what someone you decide, I'll spend money on this relationship. We won't let people under 18 even do a gym membership. Right. Like, we know that it. ain't going to work. But let me,

there's so many things going through my head. First of all, saying it ain't got nothing to do with the Lord. I know what you mean, Trey, but for me, that's like saying, you know, Christ ain't got nothing to do with Christmas. Like, it all stems, though. I know exactly what you mean. Like, you didn't give a fuck about that. But it all stems from the religion

stuff. Like, I promise to be with you. And like, even that's like, it was a trick to get girls asleep with you. Of course it was. You know, it was like, look, I promised. to be with you forever or whatever. And you might not even been conscious of it. We were all lying to ourselves. We knew the deal.

Right. Because it's like you have to make that commitment to be worthy of, I don't know, getting laid. I know. And it's so funny too that multiple, like people keep falling for it. It's like, I let,

hey, like you tell a dude anything that he, if the result is that he gets to stick it in your butt or something. Like he's going to be, do that, whatever. Like, give you rain. I mean, including marry you at 18. Yeah, for sure.

So, all right, but hold on. Let me back up. I want to make this point. And I don't know if y'all know, I think we've talked about this on this podcast before. The religious ones are also often associated with dads and daughters will exchange promise. I know that's so gross.

And yes, that is gross. Yeah, that is that called promise? It's promise part of that too? I think those are promise rings. I promise you're going to have an only fans pretty soon. No doubt, but that shit is, that does not hit. No, it don't. But for people listen to the don't, none, I'm sure most people listen do know,

but what we're talking about is there's like, it's a cultural thing in certain places and in certain church memberships where fathers of teenage daughters, what is it, the daughter commits, like swears to them that she won't. get any, fuck nobody. You know, or open up or bud or whatever.

And he just says, cool, that hits for me. And then they dance and kiss weirdly. Yeah. He also, he like promises to protect her or something. Right,

right. Yeah, the daddy daughter dance freaks me out too. And like, and like, before I say this, I know, like it's been such a part of a thing for a while.

And it didn't really occur to me to not that long ago. Like, oh, yeah, that is weird. Because it, on the surface, like, oh,

it's sweet. The dad's, it's him. not being macho for a minute and it's him you know just going with this little girl to but like I don't know just like that whole thought of like a dance which is normally a couple and then you got the dad and the daughter and then we've got the exchanging of promise rings and shit man dude all that shit's kind of fucked up

and I meant to say like if you're out there listening you've done with him I don't think that you are a creepy person I'm just saying that that whole institution when you look back on it it ain't that kind of weird of course it's so this is the thing you're talking about is different than what me and Tray were just talking about? Well, it's just like, I know they, I know that daddies and daughters do the exchanging of rings, but like then they also like middle schools and stuff have,

or elementary shows they have like a daddy daughter dance where like it, they treat it like a prom, but it's just the girls go with their dads. It don't, that's... But it has nothing to do with religion? Yeah, again, though, like you said, I think that probably it somehow stems from it. Because it's dumb.

I always... But I'm trying to make sure that I understand that this is separate from prom. Thomas ring. Yeah, yeah, it's separate. We're in the white dress culture. Well, hold on. I thought that was, I thought there was like a dance or prom type of thing.

There is. Along with the ceremony of what you're talking about. Oh, the thing with the teenage daughters swearing, what I'm coming about. Whatever. I thought part of that oftentimes is some kind of prom-e type of situation. That don't. It is.

You're right, Trey. And that's why I was trying to make sure that I understood. I guess I've heard of daddy-daughter dances. and it's usually like kindergartners, right? Yeah, they're real young. They're really young. They're really young. They're really young.

They're much younger, little girls or whatever. I feel like. Trey, can you justify that as a parent? Yeah, I mean, I only have sons, but yeah, I don't. That, if you're talking about little girls and it's just like a daddy daughter dance thing, I think it's like a dad doing his daughter's hair or something. Yeah, again, I'm not. That's why I have them?

That's why I want to reiterate that if you, why not just have a dance and then you're both parents. I like, what is? I like, what is the goal? Like, I don't know what I'm. Oh, I don't know. Maybe there's not one. Yeah.

I, like I said, I, like I just think it's starting them down on that road of like the, you know, the dad is always going to be looming over his little girl. Like, he's always going to be this huge fucking gun cleaning presence in her goddamn life. And that's just how we sort of kicked that off. Yeah, but when kids are little, especially girls,

you're talking about their dad or whatever. And if they have a good relationship, when kids are little, like he's like literally a superhero to her. Right. Yeah, but why a dance? Why not a dance? I don't know.

I don't know. Or just hang out at the house like you would. Well, no. I mean, if you want to like have a daddy daughter dinner or a mommy daughter, like the prom aspect of it makes it feel, yeah, like we're grooming people for romance. Yeah, I don't know why I have a dance either. I know that sometimes a lot of those things are like an effort by the school to get fathers

more like involved because, you know what I mean? Stereotypically the mom is the one it does. everything so they'll have like events for just dads only or whatever and that's the reasoning behind it i don't know why you would have i don't i don't know why i know how we get dads involved a dance a dance where they have to wear clothes they fucking hate yeah yeah but if it's your little girl and she's excited about it you are you are gonna like if you give a right you are gonna be into that i totally get that but i think even that and this is super easy for me to say because i don't have any kids but i think that is like it is like the past

path of least resistance. It's like, well, what do girls care about? They want to dress up. I mean, my niece's birthday's coming up. She wants to have a prom for her birthday. But I said to my mom, I don't think you should do that. I get why she's into it. But like all that is is that whole, it's like beauty pageant culture or something.

Debitant shit. Like kids are kids. If you do this, the poor kid's going to have a shit of your prom dress at the birthday party and get made fun of, you know, blah, blah, blah. For sure. Like, I'm not, you got to do something. But a daddy-daughter dance feels weird to me. Yeah, I mean, at the end of the day, it's just, I don't know.

Like, there's certain things that when kids replicate adult behavior, it's cute and funny. Like, you know, you dress a kid up like a fireman for Halloween. That's whatever. But like the whole, like, I don't know, man, like, it just creeps me out the whole, I don't know. It's just weird. It feels like court. I've never seen one in real life. And also, I've been giving the caveat the whole time of if you're talking about little kids,

and I feel very differently about it. But I feel like usually those daddy-daughter dance things are not. They're like teenage girls or whatever. And I agree- I thought they were kindergartners. I agree completely that that is fucking weird. Well, I'd say the promised ones would have to be a little bit older because it would be, no, you think it'd be weird to have that conversation

with a six-year-old like, hey, here's a ring. Don't look nobody. What is fucking somebody? Those are 16, usually. I don't hit. But the daddy-daughter thing, I think it's both. both. And I know what you mean. It's definitely creepier if they're teenagers. I don't think it's like gross if they're five. I just think it's weird. And it's like what Corey said, you're

emulating adult things. And with a dance, you're emulating courting. Yeah. That's, that's like, we're like getting the girls ready to be courted. We're not doing it with the dudes. Yeah, well, again, I'm not even sure how often that even like goes down or whatever anymore. Because I don't, you know, I just see, I see Instagram pictures of it of people that. that I know, like with kids that aren't that old. And there was daddy daughter dance time. And again, like, stuff to me. I'd never, I'd never even thought, like, I knew those were a thing.

And in my mind, I guess, because I'd always be just been, uh, this been beat into you. Like, oh, it's just a sweet little nice thing for a dad to do. But then I just started seeing the pictures and like it just looked like a prom, you know, with kids and their dad's, it's, how old is the girl, the child in the picture you're talking about? This one, it seemed like middle school, maybe, but I'm going on. on like, I can't tell how old kids are by looking at them. I think is very, you're right.

Well, I still, I don't know. I mean, we're definitely splitting hairs here, but I think that that's the hugest thing that makes a difference to me. If you're talking fucking five-year-olds, kindergartners do it, whatever. Play for anything. I have a big old time as far as I'm concerned, because they're into anything.

They're dumb and stupid. Yeah, I don't think any of that is weird necessarily. But I feel like once they get, you know, middle school, well, like a kid can have hit puberty already. Right. above, then it changes the context of something like that. And I do think it makes it a little, a little weirder. But also, like.

It's definitely weirder. I still think it's weird with young kids. It's not creepy. It's just like, I just feel like we're grooming them to do, I don't know, it's just weird to me. Yeah. Well, and also, I don't have daughters. So I'm just, I don't even really know. But I just know that little kids are like pretty much pure innocence.

Right. No, totally. Yeah. It's not like tainted by any kind of like context or whatever generally. So just if they're into something, then it's probably fine. Even if that, you know, little boys want to wear dresses and whatever the fuck else, like who gives a shit at the very small ages. But I want to, I, it's important to me, though, that we circle back at least at one point

because I really did. Now that you guys have said all this, I immediately, you all know I'm church dumb. I'm church dumb as fuck. I didn't know anything. I didn't fuck with church hardly at all. Now that y'all have said. all this, I have very much connected all those dots. But like, when I first brought it up, I wasn't even thinking about the Lord or church mess at all. I was just, because like I said,

okay, a couple things. First of all, I know it wasn't any kind of God-related mess because I've told the story before on here. I ain't got to tell the whole thing again because it's one of those stories where you kind of talk about yourself like heroically, you know me. But like this, for you to do that. Our high school, I know, I know. Our high school allowed some church person to come in and give a address our entire senior class once and it was pure church shit it couldn't have been legal it couldn't have been above board

but they let them do it and they came in and we did that all the time they passed out all these they passed out all these little contracts that they didn't request that we signed they just told us all to sign them and if you read the contract it was like a contract with the Lord was it called why no was it called why no

maybe it could have been I don't know what the like title I got a story about this. Basically, you just swear before the Lord in writing, surprised it didn't make you do it in blood, that you won't in any way hit. As course, you won't drink or do drugs or have sex or any of that stuff at all until you're like, well, you'll never do the first things and you won't have sex until you're married or whatever.

And it's a literal contract with God that our entire school passed out to our entire class and directed us to sign. and I just wouldn't do it. I was like, I'm not doing that. There's no way I'm doing that. That's so fucked up, man. And they wouldn't, and they were just like, you, blah, you know, but I didn't and I just left and it was fine because of course it was,

because they knew they couldn't have been doing that shit in the first place. But anyway, I only say that to say the version of the promise ring thing that you're talking about, Corey, like, it weren't that for me. Yeah, that just blows my mind. It was literally, the way I even recall it was in Salina. it was literally just like a junior varsity version of an engagement ring. Like that's all, it was just like an engagement ring for teenagers. And I'm thinking about it now, I feel like in Salina they were especially popular

because I think I've talked about this before. There was a weird, maybe still to this day, I don't know how teenagers are in Salina. But when I was growing up, there was a weird, like crazily toxic relationship culture in Salina where people were insanely possessive and jealous. And I mean the boys and the girls. Like it went both directions. I mean being a fucking redneck? I guess.

I know, but I feel like I've talked to like Katie about it before, and she always acts like when I talk about how it was and how people acted, she always acts like Wayne County wasn't as bad. I mean, Solano was like fucking extreme. And I feel like that was the reason that these promise ring things were popular there. Everybody was super possessive, super jealous, like the kind of thing where you weren't, if you were in a relationship, you weren't allowed to talk to the opposite sense.

And again, it was both. Both parts. It was the guys, it was the guys and the girls. And I didn't even realize how fucking weird it was until years later, looking back on it, like so many things about. Yeah, we had, that wasn't how it was at all with every dude,

but it was that way with like, you know, off the top of my head, I'm picturing like four or five dudes. And they was the most redneckest, dumbest of my friends for sure. Like, that was just,

that's a tribal thing. I mean, it's major insecurity, obviously. but it was that too that always blew my mind and they would just be like I ain't gonna let my bitch talk to nobody

she's talking to this guy and I'm like how do you expect her to function in the world oftentimes it would be me and I'd get the shit kicked out of me we had that for sure Trey and we have promise rings and I'm just now remembering I think I got my high school girlfriend

a promise ring that was Pearl like white pearl on top at Christmas and I can remember like my friends telling me like, yo, Kaelin was talking to fucking Curtis Leroux in the blue, and I would just be like, okay, cool. But I remember feeling like, okay, I'm supposed to care.

Right. Let me go ask them about it. And I remember even then, I was too dumb to just be like, this is stupid. I'm not doing this. Instead, my whole thing was, and I still feel this to a certain extent, was just like, man, she's a hypocrite.

Like, this bitch is a hypocrite. Like, you can talk all day long, but like, leave me alone. Stop getting mad at me every damn day. Yeah. Hired that. Yeah, we, I remember the promise rings, but it was. We broke that promise. They only get broken.

Like, that's why I'm saying. Yeah, for sure. And, dude. Are exclusively broken eventually. And, there's got to be a couple. I mean, yeah, I'm sure there's a couple. But, like, I was about to say, check in on that marriage. They might still be together.

like physically, but buddy, one of them checked out a long time ago. Do you guys know anybody? Actually, that reminded me. I don't know if they had a promise ring or not. I have no idea. But I know I'm close friends with one couple of her high school sweethearts and they're actually like head to toe. Well, my, completely fine, but only one. And I know that that's like some very rare fairy tale shit. They're wild in that way. But like my sister and her husband started dating the day they graduated high school does that count well i mean yeah pretty damn close yeah i'm talking about are actually like fucking like fresh oh the one that the one that we have we had we had a uh a couple that um

they got together in seventh grade and they got married and they just got divorced this year but but like dude bro that's like 20 years together still like it's crazy yeah no they did they just did they just did get divorced. My man's leveled up, shout out. So, you know, could be worse. We, there's one couple I can think of that got pregnant. Oh, well, shit. And they're still together.

They're still together. And I don't always think they're happy, but they're doing it. But then I also just remember, this is sad. When I went to Australia, I went with a group of guys who all went to high school together. so I just happen to know a lot about their high school because I've partied with them over the years. There's people in their high school, as Marival High School,

that believe in their heart, I went to school with them because it's a pretty big school. My buddy Charles, y'all know Charles. Y'all know Charles. He's like that with the Salina boys. He's you with the Salina boys.

He's not from Salina, but everybody, including us, kind of forget that he's not. Oh, yeah, I assume that too. Right. But because Marival's like a 4A school, like I'd be at parties. I've had a, there's one girl in particular,

who's like, no, you went to my high school. Like, she just thinks I'm fucking with him. Anyway. Trey's got a friend thinks out about me, and I didn't go to no goddamn school. I don't know. This couple came to visit us in Australia. That's where I met them. They started dating in seventh grade.

And he, unfortunately, the story is so sad, passed away last year. But, like, they were teachers at Marival together. They had kids, like, seventh grade. and by any metric, they seemed very happy. So he tragically died. I was about to say that so the one you know, it just, yeah. Yeah, God didn't have that. God got jealous.

Lord was like, wait a minute. That ain't supposed to be. Mike. All the reason I created hell is they keep breaking these promises. Yeah, man. I don't even think, I'm trying to think of a situation where it would have even gotten close with me and having to like go the promiseering. route, but it didn't. Especially high school, I just stayed getting blow jobs from the devil girls.

See, like I'm saying, I mean, obviously, man, that really hits for you. But like it was Yeah. Part of the whole culture in Salina that I was talking about earlier is also that like, like, serial monogamy type thing or whatever. You know what I mean? I ain't saying people weren't like fucking around, but everybody, it was boyfriends and girlfriends. Oh, yeah. And that was like the thing. We had like a, we had a couple of those. Yeah, that was a status thing in high school. Yeah, we had a couple of those, but like for the most part, man. we were swangin. Like everybody was just like...

Well, you had a bigger school. I think that's part of it. Yeah, I mean, I graduated with 80. Seriously, right. Censurely across three grades. We'd do all four. At any given point in high school, there were maybe eight girls I found attractive.

Right. Because there were 16 girls. Well, I mean... Even then, you mean? Yeah, we mean even then. I had higher standards then, son. I thought I was the shit. Yeah, but you hadn't been...

Like, we've talked, you know, Corey has that whole bit of you do about being a nine in Georgia or whatever. And I ain't going to name no names, obviously, in hell. I'm sure I count among them, too, on the other perspective. But I'm saying, like, I think back sometimes on girls that in high school were like, you know, considered among the ones that hit, and they don't. Yeah.

Yeah. That's true, definitely of, like, where I come from. But for me personally, no, it's like the other way around. Well, you were like the, even in college, like, yeah, even in college, like, I look back at some girls in college where I think about like rejecting girls in college and I'd be like God, I was so stupid and full of myself. Oh, dude, yeah. I mean, you know, I pretty much did it all, but yeah, but there was, I was about to say, Corey, according to your tales, what do you mean? Yeah, I didn't discriminate. And there was a lot of headers in there. And Lord, I bet you they look at me

now and just like, God damn, what was I thinking? Man, I just also had so much fucked up sexual issues intention because of religion and I think I just used she's not but a six or whatever as an excuse. If I'm going to fuck over the Lord, it better be for a 10. I hear you. Exactly. If I'm going to hell, them titties are going to be right. I think that was my thought process.

You know, I don't know. Who could tell? But. Yeah, I didn't have none of that. Was it still a thing in your hometowns when we were growing up when we were in high school, the whole like getting married, super young, yada, like immediately type of thing. Like, like bag of shit.

The reason she got to promise her, like, she wanted, dude, she wanted, she would have got married at 18 easily, easily. Yeah. I would have, like, she wanted that, you know. And then after we broke up, she was married and had a kid within six months, and she was like 19 or 20 at the time when me and her broke up. Like, that's actually why I brought that up. And then we got off accidentally on a tangent talking about girls that hit or don't hit or whatever. But I think the number of people there was in a small town, I think that serial monogamy clicks in because. there's like a subconscious thing of like, you got to lock it up.

You got to get somebody out. It's weird because. It's weird because. It's weird because like, God left 50 years ago. It's weird because like there was like. Took his bitch with him. Like I think I think in the South that just, that just, I mean, I had a bit on stage about that too. But like, it's, that is a thing in the South.

And in our high school, that was still true. Like everybody was getting married young, except for, I don't know what happened to my grade specifically. We were very weird. Class of 06 at Gordon Lee, very weird in that everyone around us, grade above us, grade below us, they all got married young, but like, I'm trying to, I'm thinking on all, everybody in my class, we all got, we all waited to our 30s. Like, everybody waited to their 30s or they're still not. You talk about all your friends from back there, and I know, like, hardly any of them

have kids or whatever either, and that is, like, again, it's weird. I get it being, you graduated in 2006, I get they're not, they weren't all married at 19, but, like, we're in our early 30s now. Every single one of my buddies from back on, we all have multiple children. Yeah. No, it's weird. Like, it's pretty much just my grade. And then there's some randoms here.

Well, I guess maybe I was just driven. Like, the friends that I'm friends with in the other grades are all like that. But, of course, I was driven to people that didn't have kids because I didn't have kids. But, like, Robbie, hell, Robbie's just now getting married, that motherfucker, 34. Are they not high school? She's hard stuff. Robbie and Meg? Yeah.

Hell no. Dude, she's like, Meg's, uh, they met in, and college at UGA. Meg's, uh,

like 25. Where's she from, though? Uh, I don't know. They met in Athens, though. She's from Athens.

I'm sure. She's from Athens. They met when, when they were in school at UGA, but, but she's much younger than Robbie. Um, she seems,

you know, as old as us, because she's super mature, but, uh, But no, I mean, and fuck man, you know, I mean, I'm just now starting to kind of round the basis on that whole having a fucking kid thing. And I'm about to be 33. But, you know, I got some of my, like, my buddy Jared, like, by 21, he had foe, you know, so, like, I don't know.

I'm sure it, like, evens out somewhere. But, like, yeah, it's weird. Like, I don't know, like, because that's not normal for the South for me to have as many friends with as little kids or marriages. And I don't mean, like, oh, they got divorced. horse. There's that too. Don't get me wrong, but like so many of us. Like, I've gone to a lot of first weddings in my 30s. My buddy Cam don't have kids, but he just got on his second marriage. Brian had to adopt kids because, you know, his sister be wild and having too many kids and can't take care of them. Rain and had kids. Yeah, I don't know. Everybody would be having

kids. Well, I mean, we're, I mean, I don't know about y'all's situation, but our ages, it makes sense that we would be the first generation of the South to buck that trend just because of how the economy was and all that, you know what I'm saying? Like, we were the- And MTV and the internet, we was like, the world might hit. No, I know. Yeah, yeah, for sure. You guys, if it was still very much a thing culturally in your schools about, like, people

getting married early and all that stuff, that's why I asked, because I feel like it, like you said, it was sort of just starting to maybe change, like, with our generation. Whereas like the generation before us and then all the way back, it was just an unquestioned thing in towns like ours. You know, like you were married by 19 or 20 or whatever. Right. It had your first kid by 21 or whatnot. And I just felt like it was starting to change when we were growing up. I have no clue what they about nowadays.

No, it's, no, we've all got issues and we all. We do. We all should have talked about it with somebody. And that's the deal.

because I'm going to be up front with you and with our listeners. A little bit of a peek behind the curtain here. I want to do a, I would like to do a video about just voting, about specifically targeted like people back home because I know that they don't vote and don't hit. It's not that voting don't hit, but there's a lot of reasons people tend to not fuck with it. So I thought I'd try to cover some of that.

So I also thought, as a preamble, maybe we could sort of talk about it and say if we get anywhere that hits, but maybe we won't. But the first and foremost, I know that people feel like people from places like where we're from oftentimes who agree with us oftentimes don't fuck with voting because they feel like it's completely and utterly pointless. They're like, I know for a fact, I'm one of less than 10% of people who are going to where I am at who are going to have that vote. so like what is the fucking point right no i'm i'm with you and i used to be that way um i mean i said like and this is a dumb thing for me to have said i guess uh or felt but in the 2016 election like as a georgia voter because i knew i knew i knew what time it was you know what i mean i knew i knew i was about to go down and especially here i was like man honest to god it is not fucking worth me standing that goddamn line like it's it really ain't and

And then I found, like, I'll be the first to tell you, the only fucking reason that I voted was like, I was like, man, they can figure it out that I didn't somehow. And I've been on this goddamn liberal redneck tour talking shit about Trump and telling everybody to vote. And if they found out I didn't, how much of a bag of shit am I going to look like? So I literally voted just to save face. But then I started saying, I was like, I was like, dude, if everyone keeps feeling this way and keeps not doing it, then that's how it keeps becoming this. But now it seems that like it could be a little bit closer. So I'm waiting on my absentee ballot to come in because I'm still not living the fucking ass. Well, I think there's another layer to it, Trey, though.

I don't think it's just that people who feel the way you feel are like, well, there ain't no way Trump's going to lose Tennessee. You know, I think that they do think that. And I think that that's true. There's other reasons to vote, obviously. I think also, though, people think what's the difference where we're from? And I think that there are differences. I think that we can get into what they all might be.

I think a lot of those differences take a long time. You know, that's like that fucking trickle-down economics. I don't know if the economics ever trickled down, but the bullshit certainly flows downhill. So I think a lot of people have that attitude of like, it don't matter who's president kind of thing. Yeah. Yeah.

Well, it's funny because, like, Corey, Corey in one fell swoop there when he sort of summed up his experience, he hit on a bunch of the things that I was, thinking about all right. My rationale always was, before I was ever on tour worried about like actual, you know, any specific person finding out that I didn't vote, I always had this rationale like, well, I have to vote

because I'm going bitch about it. Like, I'm going to run my mouth and complain about this. I know for a fact I am. And if I don't vote, I kind of don't really have the right to do that. It's how I always felt. I was like, I don't buy that. I know, right, I know you don't. We talked about this before.

I don't you feel but what's like, but I feel like that's a different version of what you were saying except it's just that you're a public figure. I mean, it's just like with Colin Kaepernick when you came out and said he didn't vote in 2016 I feel like a lot of people, me included, were like, oh damn dog, really?

No, I wouldn't have said it. I know, but that's my whole point. I feel like you acknowledge that in 2016 you were worried about the idea of our fans or people finding out you didn't vote. You were worried about that happening. I feel like that kind of, kind of proves a version of the point that I'm trying to make here because I feel like,

well, at least subconsciously, you know that it's a real thing. I know it's a real. No, no, no, no. I know it's a real thing that people that I don't think that I don't, I just don't mind the notion that if you don't vote, you have no right to complain because then you have to go one step further, in my opinion, is that, okay, well, if you voted for a person, then can you complain about them at all? because it was your goddamn fault

that them motherfuckers was in here to begin with. You know what I'm saying? So what I'm saying? Of course you can. Well, right. Well, I say if you don't vote, you got a right to complain about fucking everything.

You're like, y'all suck so bad. I didn't even get excited to fucking leave my house. Y'all don't have. I mean, that's the thing. You work home to people you vote for accountable anyway. I agree. I agree. It would have been better optically.

And maybe in reality, if Cabernick had said, I wrote in X. You know what I mean? That would be fine. I can agree with that. But I can remember when that came out. His whole point was I did do the research.

I am informed. And I chose not to vote for either of these two choices. And it's hard for me personally to fall anybody for that. Like if you just don't, if you're just like, oh, it don't matter. And you ain't cracked a newspaper. You know what I mean? You ain't read a policy. Then I agree with what you're saying, Trey.

But if you have done all that and you just don't want to vote for a either of them. I just not sure I can say you don't get a complaint. It sounds to me, as Corey was kind of pointing out, you got a lot to complain about. Yeah, well, another important factor here is I guess I'm talking specifically about people who are like, not to Sengland, but who are like Corey, meaning people who I know whose opinions do fall on one side of the whole thing. You know what I mean? Like you're talking about people. They just don't feel their vote matters because they're The people you're talking about that, like, either just don't really give much of a fuck either way or give a huge fuck and further are like, fuck both sides. And I mean that.

I'm not really talking about those people. I'm talking about people that aren't motivated to vote even though they do, you know, pretty firmly fall on one side or the other. Well, another thing you should, I think, bring up personally. I mean, this is this is a thing I'm passionate about. So I'm projecting. but there's a lot more elections. I was going to get into that too, yes. Yeah, for sure.

That's important. And some of them are close. Right. You know, and it'll help things in the future in terms of money. Like if your state senator race is closer than the Tennessee Democratic Party thought it would be, they'll give more money to your candidate the next time around and put more resources behind them. And so all that stuff matters.

I can totally respect someone going and voting. just saying, well, I didn't vote for this election because I didn't like either of them, but I did the other five or whatever. Yeah, no, I'm with that. I'm with that. Yeah, the local shit's always going to matter. Unfortunately, around here, often, so many, the choices

are bullshit there, too. It's just, you know what I'm saying? Like, it, don't you have a Q&O ladies? Aside from now, aside from my lord. Yeah, aside from like, yeah, yeah, son, it is. How do y'all boat? Do y'all just throw a rock into a pond and hope that color changes?

And whichever lady was diving for Nichols that day and it hits on the head gets to be our Congresswoman. Yeah, he's literally, it's. You have more sense than that Q&A on there in Georgia. Like, which of course it is. It's insane. That totally checks out based on everything, like all the, the way we've, you've always talked about and we've always talked about Chickamauga in the surrounding area and just how lunacy prone it seems to be. It don't hit. It don't hit a lot.

Like it's a, it's a nightmare. Dude, going to, I'm voting absentee strictly because, you know, they've got that rule that's like, I don't know how many feet it is that you can't campaign before the door of the,

right, yeah. Well, son, I mean, that's a rule, but like everybody here believes the same thing. So nobody cares.

You know what I'm saying? like it very much and like dog you know and now now worse every year of our marginal success it gets a little bit worse on me and a little bit more like when i'm in line son they're just look at me like this motherfucker here you know what i mean like they know Thompson's went to Thompson went to vote early i think in i guess in Putnam county so in cook bull the other day i think somewhere in that area but anyway he went to vote early there was a line he was standing in line to do it and he said they had organized this basically like a parade up and down the street in front of the polling place that was like a Trump parade. It was like, you know, all the trucks with like three different flags

out the back. He said they had flags that were like Trump as like Rambo with a, you know how they love to do that with Trump. They love to see now. They love to turn into like a muscle bound hero who scores touchdowns and shoots terrorists and stuff when he's like the fatest dumbest don't hitting his motherfucker on earth. Anyway, it was like a whole line of. He said it was at least 50 vehicles who were like basically making laps doing that, which I actually think, and I know not everybody feels this way

about what I'm about to say. This is very much a me thing and also a y'all thing, I think. But knowing that they are also doing that shit now, like, and you know, there's been always talking about them having people watching the polls. They're like out at the polls trying to either intimidate people or whatever. Knowing that they so badly don't want people to vote

makes me like want to vote 50 times. Of course. You know, of course. be like that should motivate you even more just to piss them all. Yeah, I'm just not going down there. Yeah, no, I mean, you still voting and you can't. Yeah, no, I am still, I am still voting. I'm just saying it should, to me,

yeah, I agree. I agree. I agree. I agree and like, and I can't stand like I hate so much voting against something instead of for something. I really do. I hate it. And I hate feeding into that, like, I don't, I don't ever want to be like,

I just want to make conservatives upset. because dude you know how many fucking the people around here like make their own like there's the trump 20 20 signs that like are like you know issued by the campaign that people get for free and stuff if you just go to your local whatever hey i want to sign but then like people around here got like tricked out signs that they make like at fucking arts and craft school and like so many of them are just make liberals cry again make liberal and like all the way down the road there's flags make liberals cry again and i just like sit there and i look at it and i'm like god i hope that like I hope we don't look like that.

Like I hope like it's so weird for me to think like that's your thing. That's all you care about. I used to close on tour with that exact idea. Remember? Right. Yeah. Jerking off the Fox News and all that. Of course that was always tongue in cheek.

Well, of course that's tongue and cheap. But like you care about policies and you can name them. It does. Yeah. Obviously I want them to be upset because them losing would make them upset. But my sole reasoning for wanting a different president isn't specifically to make this guy down here upset. That's a byproduct of the thing that I actually want,

which is a sensible leader with decorum and diplomacy that is not going to have the nuclear football while he's snorting Adderall on a fucking toilet reading an Xbox comment. But that's the thing. It's like we've always talked. Skew, those motherfuckers are such single issue voters and their main issue is us.

And it's so, it's so bizarre. and just sad. I don't know if it's true that they're worse about that than us, or if it's just that they either don't care to or lack the ability to or don't know to hide it. Because, I mean, I used to have a joke about how if we found out Global Warman wasn't real, a big part of us all would be upset that we were wrong. Yeah. And I got the idea for that because I feel that way.

I saw some study that was like, hey, it may not be as bad as we thought. And my first reaction was, oh, man. Yeah, yeah. I think that's inside all of us. I don't think they know to hide it. I do think it's possible that it's more about that for them than it is for us. But, like, also, man, it is about that for me at this point. Yeah, maybe.

Like, at this point, like, I'll just admit it. Like, I can, maybe, like, the conversation is that I know not to lead with it because of how it makes me look or whatever. And it's not the most important. But me and DJ, me and DJ had a conversation about wishing death upon Trump last week on our podcast. And my whole thing was, I do wish him dead because I hate him. Oh, yeah. That's true. But I also wish him dead because it would be good for America.

Right. Well, yeah. I mean, I said on our, on our podcast. on me and Matt Coon's podcast a couple weeks ago, I said, just for anybody that didn't hear it, that I genuinely hope that his children watch him take his last breath, which is just him gurgling blood.

So I'm with you. So you get it. I know. I think it's what Cho said, and you also alluded to it to Drew, to Drew, that the whole idea of like, but that ain't the only thing.

Like for so many of them, it seems to just be literally about only that, meaning like whatever. I've told the story before, too, about that time I was in a class at my old job and there was this super conservative lady I used to argue with all the time. The person teaching the class goes, let's say, because it was a contract class and talking about law. And she's like, let's say hypothetically they just instituted a law here in your community that said, you're not allowed to smoke cigarettes outside anymore.

Some of you try to poke holes in that law. Tell me why that might be a problem. And I said just being a smart ass, because this is America, which is a super conservative thing to say, right? Like, fucking, they said about everything. A more conservative rednecky thing to say. But when I said that, the lady I'm talking about turned around and like, looked at me and go, typical liberal.

And I was like, there was, there wasn't a single thing liberal about what I just did. But she knows I'm liberal. Right. I said that. That makes that bad. And like, for us, it don't, it don't operate that way. It is part of it. Again, I had, my whole closer was about how much.

Three of us? To piss them off. But it ain't like- Or America or who is we? Dude, I do care. And I think most liberals do care more about like gay people and black people being treated okay. Poor people not fucking, you know, being stomped all over.

We care more about that than them losing. Without a doubt. I think they care more about abortion and the civil, in the Supreme Court. They do Trump. Then I was being sad. And this facade. and the facade of socialism that, by the way, Obama was supposed to bring in that eight years to do it and didn't.

But they really, I mean, that's that Marjorie Green, that Q&A lady, all her signs say vote for me, stop socialism. That's it. And like that right there does all of it for her. They're like, oh, she don't like that. Hits. But they don't fucking know what it is, by the way. And half of them benefit from it.

Shout out real quick to the M.A.R. went in the election in Bolivia in spite of a CIA coup a year ago. Sorry, go ahead. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. More. Again, I know, like, I know there's plenty of liberals who fit that same bill. There's dumb-ass liberals, too, of course there are. And there's plenty of them that don't really, they don't have a clue.

They just use buzzwords and shit and don't know what they mean. And by the way, by the way, they're worse. They're worse in a way. Dumb-ass liberals, like a dumb-ass conservatives are often funny. maybe they don't mean to be true but dumb-ass liberals are never fucking funny they're so god damn annoying not fun at all but a dumb-ass conservative clock you know broken clock with them motherfuckers like every now and then it's like all right that's pretty good but you know what this might be tapping into exactly the difference i don't know what the numbers are or what the feelings are

in terms of how to compare who would who's more just into the other side losing but i don't do think we can agree that Trump supporters love making signs about us crying more than we do. You know, they sure don't care if it seems like that that's what it's about. I know. I thought that that crossed my mind when you, but you were in, you were on one show so I didn't interrupt you. But you said earlier, like they'd make these signs themselves at arts and crafts school. And in my head, I was like, neither of those things are hit for them. You know what I mean?

No, they shouldn't. Yeah. They just sitting there and doing their art and art and. None of them. Three art and craft or school. About Kraft might maybe, because you can make like a, you know, yeah, or wood, stuff out of wood. You can make a boat, cross a burn out of wood.

If you drive in either direction. Robert Kraft. Of where I'm at, 15 to 20 miles, you'll see a sign on the side of the road that points to like a tent that says literally Trump store. And it's these people. Wade, I showed you all that picture of Wade the other day out in his. his goddamn Uncle Sam hat and neon shirt, just being a fucking lunatic, spinning a Trump sign that's selling all these things.

And it's just, it's like, man, I mean, this might sound offensive. It is. I see some people in line that look like they're about to give their last dollar for a fucking Trump t-shirt

or like a bedazzled fucking Trump sign. I don't know. It's just disgusting. And I've fucking, like it just, I don't know, man. just seems like some fucking Jim Jones shit that don't hit.

And yeah, you're right. I hope they fucking cry. They fucking cry. Oh, they won't. It's like you're going back even before Trump. I remember one time when Gayne Marys got legalized by the Supreme Court,

I posted on Facebook when that happened. I just posted the clip from the Dave Chappelle special. Oh, it hurts. Yeah, it's like, oh, in your face, in your face. Who it burned on it? that justice system burns. And that was my entire spot because even then, you know, I was like, does it.

Yeah. Y'all like that shit in your face. Like, it's definitely a thing. No, it's a thing. It's just, sure. It's definitely a thing. It just,

it seems like it's a lot of people's whole personality, which is not good. I know. No, I'm completely with you. I don't think that it's, it's definitely a thing on both sides. They are, they're worse about it.

It's weird too because, like, all they care about is, is winning, but they don't care at what cost. Like, I was talking to some people about... That's the Republicans forever. No, no, I know. But I was like, I was talking to somebody. I won't name who they were, but I was like, we were talking about the...

It was bad. No. We were talking about some debate or something. And I was like, but you, but none of that is true. Like literally, like you, we don't even have to go fact check it. You know good and well, that's not true. It's like, they're like, yeah, but they're winning right now. They're winning the argument.

And I'm like, but that's, that should not be what you want. You should, like, it shouldn't be debate club where it's like, technically they didn't know what the fuck they were talking about, but they persuaded us. And that you should not want that. You should not want your political, like, oh, hey, I just like people that win. Like, you shouldn't want someone to lie and cheat and steal to get into office, which granted, all of them have to do that at a certain point.

Like, I know that. And that's what somebody put on Twitter yesterday, which was so accurate. It's like, man, liberals were finally facing years. of treating a fucking blood sport like it's botchy ball or some shit like that. Yeah, right. Like we can't like,

like don't get me wrong. You can still do the right thing, say the right thing, and not be fucking, not be too worried about being nice all the fucking time. Dude, gerrymandering. You know,

gerrymandering. If they, if gerrymandering wasn't allowed to happen, Lindsey Graham would be behind about 10%. As it stands, it's a toss-up whether or not he wins because of gerrymandering. So that's exactly the stuff you're referring to.

Like, we want, it seems like liberals keep waiting on like the they, whoever the they is who's going to make everything fair and okay. Yeah. Even the ones in Congress where I'm like, if anyone is they, it's y'all. Yeah. I mean, people retweet these idiot senators saying, someone needs to do something about this. You're someone.

Yeah. That ain't the mentality, man. No. No. And I think, well, like, to me, this, that, this is all tied together. Like I agree completely the whole, like, we need to stop treating a blood sport like it's botchy ball.

Fuck that high road bullshit. I'm over it. Like, they ain't never done that. I'm tired of pretending to do that. To me, that's related to the whole shoving it in their face and wanting them to cry and lose. No, I know.

Because they have always been that way too. And it's like, fuck it. I ain't going to pretend like I don't want the same thing. No, I hear you. Like, I'm realizing as I'm sitting here, I was like, dude, you were literally just trying to do that. Like, you were trying to fucking take the high row

went like, I don't believe that bullshit. Well, also, I just realized I was sitting here like, I agree with Trey that I want to rub in their face, but when it happens, if Biden wins, I'm probably going to be mostly cool about it. Yeah. And then I thought, killing with kindness.

That's how you do that. Well, but then I thought if Bernie Sanders had somehow become the nominee and he won, your boy would have set some buildings on fire. Like, I would have danced in the street. Everybody would have been setting buildings on fire if Bernie Sanders had won, God damn it. That's his whole thing.

He loves it. He loves it. He loves it. He ran on that. Bernie Sanders is going to be on a goddamn coin. Hold back of it. It's just going to be the Washington Monument on fire. Is that what you want?

Well, I definitely would have not only that stereotype coming from my in-laws, all the sexual abusers seem to be liberals because I'd have got my dick out at the dinner table. So I don't know. I'll show y'all. Exactly. Maybe. It's going to be that kind of party. If Biden wins, I'm probably going to be not be like super-indexam.

your face about it. But I think that's just because he's not really my horse. Well, I think kill him with kindness. There is something to say about that. What have we just killed him with guns, though? That'd be, that'd hit too. But also, like, I'll say this in closing. Kindness to gun. I'll say, I'll say this in closing. And it's probably one of those things that's so easy to say right now. But I do think that we, you know, as we said, we need to hold the people we elect accountable. We were talking about that in the voting thing. I think it would probably serve us all well if we, uh, you know, we're a little hard on Joe

if he wins. I think it's a better look. I know that I personally would be able to sleep better at night if I could look at my parents to go see. No, I fucking, that didn't hit for me either, you know, because I feel like with Obama, we now, in hindsight, we talk about a lot of these things that, that don't hit about him. But we, we probably would have never dared in the moment. And I think it's probably time for us to start daring in the moment, because maybe then, it will start making politicians more accountable if they realize their own people are starting to be like, hey, now, hold up. So that's just me.

I'm going to try to do that at least. I hope that's a bridge that I can cross. You know what I'm saying? I hope that happens. I agree with you completely. I think that we were younger with Obama. Not just like, I mean, I'm not saying like the country was more naive. I mean, you and I and I and Trey were literally younger.

I think he ran a very different campaign than Joe Biden. And I think, honestly, we hate being wrong. I think that like he was doing all the stuff that ran counter to what he ran on. And we were like, well, just, you know, give him, he's going to circle back to the promises he made. Right. I definitely kept thinking that. Well, during his first term, I was like, look, it's only because it's his first term. He's got to get real.

During his second term, that's when he'll really come through with all this radical change. He's going to force it through like he's been promising us for forever. But I will say, though, and of course, like, I didn't have, you know, by the time I had any kind of public platform, he was already on the way out. and Donald Trump was on to rise up. But like when I was just like at work and talking to people and stuff, I was bitching about Obama toward the end there because I was, because I remember we've talked before about how like I would, it would be conversations with a conservative and I would like let them know like,

yeah, I'm not, I'm not too thrilled with Barack Obama to be honest with. Yeah, but then they would be like, yeah, because he's a socialist. I know, I know that. Because he ain't. That's exactly what would happen. They would be like, right. So you get it. You get where I'm coming from.

And I would always be like, no. actually what you don't understand is Obama because he ain't liberal enough. Like you guys think he's the liberal antichrist. He makes me mags his way too moderate. And they would all, you know, they would always just feel like, what? I couldn't even fathom it. But like, but I agree with you completely, Cho. I think it's important.

You have to do that. But setting up for a buttercream hill turn, basically is what I'm saying. Well, it's also, the other thing is like, I also run my mouth all the time. But I believe this about the last. has tendency to cannibalize itself, you know, and like come after each other for stuff. You know what I mean? But once we in, it's fine. I definitely hold them accountable.

Don't fucking rip each other to pace. There's a fine line between the two, I think. I agree. I got to go because I got another one. I love you guys. Bye. I love you. Skew.

Skew. Yeah. Well, I've been, just because how you've been operating lately and now it's like a running joke, basically, I 100%. fully expected you to just close this immediately. No, because I thought me and you might still try to put a button on the episode. Yeah, yeah.

And I get that now. And it's just, but I thought anyway, well, that's been ruined. No, but I think, like, I just, I know, I feel like we've just, we haven't been talking about both sides of our mouths, but we've been, like, close to it a lot over this last half hour. We say like one thing. And then we're like, but now at the same time. Yeah, we're being, other thing.

We're being politicians. We're being politicians for sure. I do think, I think you do, it is, it's important you hold your people accountable that you vote for the people on your side. But I also get really frustrated with the left being, like I said, being cannibalistic and being like ripping each other, ripping ourselves apart before they even get a chance to. And that shit drives me insane. Well, let me put it a different way then, um, a little bit. I believe Donald Trump is possibly a result of us being complacent for eight years.

possibly. And in order for that not to happen again, we need to start grooming another, like if Joe Biden wins, we already need to be grooming the fucking next one, and we need to be voicing our opinions loudly as to what we don't necessarily like about Biden so that these motherfuckers will know what to run on. Does that make sense? Yeah, it does. I think that some of that has already happened. Like Bernie Sanders, he ended up getting dusted by Biden, but Bernie was a very serious thing there for a while. And that by itself, that drug Joe Biden further to the left,

which is exactly the type of thing you're talking about. So, I mean, yeah, that shit is important. Well. But I don't know. But we're talking exclusively about after if we win and then after we win, right? Yeah, yeah. And by the way, I think we all deserve at least six months off. Yeah, fuck, at least for sure.

At least six months to just party like it's 1999. Because going back to what I'm saying about the cannibalizing thing, like, pre the election, I agree completely with what you're saying about holding your people accountable, but during the election when you're like trying to win it or whatever, I get annoyed to no end by liberals on Twitter and stuff spending their time going after Joe Biden. Right, yeah.

He's the candidate now. Yeah, I don't like. It ain't the primaries anymore. fuck all that shit. I'm sorry, but fuck it. Like, we ain't got time for that right now. That helps nothing that don't accomplish anything right now in this moment. You can do all that later.

Yeah, this isn't football. This isn't football. There's not a backup quarterback we can put in. There's not an offensive strategy, like a different strategy. This is what we're doing. So I don't know what to tell you. We are committed at this point. Yeah.

Well, guys, Talk to someone and get your dick hard. Yeah. Get your new dick. Get your new brain. All that stuff. All that stuff. All right.

Love you. See you all next time. Skew. Thank you all for listening to the well-read show. We'd love to stick around longer, but we got to go. Tune in next week if you got nothing to do. Thank you, God bless you. Good night and skew.
