mosl What is up, Lacey? What's up with y'alla? Was
giving me okay, Miles and Jack were giving me because
I was napping on the couch down. It was like
giving you ship. I was worried about you, That's what
It was. Even worse than give us somebody, because it's like,
are you okay? Okay? You were laying in the dark.
(02:30):
Usually you come up just the first of energy, and
then today you didn't come up into the writer's bullpen.
You just we heard a long and then just silence
and we came downstairs. I tested that I was laying
exactly that's when the lobby the lights were completely off
and you were just on your back on the couch.
(02:51):
So I just wanted to know, like, I want to
be sensitive if you're having you and absolutely what you
like to say. You ask up off, Like, I just
want to make sure you didn't have put on the
macaphone a migraine. You could have. You don't know, no,
because I like the text I get from you after
(03:13):
you come in the office. I don't hear I just
hear the door clothes. I'm on the couch downstairs. Didn't
have the energy to come up. L O l okay
to l O L. So you read that you go
back and you didn't have the energy to come up. Yeah,
he come to find out just because you're out here
securing all these bags, you don't have a lot of
energy in your Tank's working woman in show Base, Lacy.
(03:35):
We're gonna get to know you a little bit better
in a moment. First, we're gonna tell our listeners a
couple of things we're talking about today. We're gonna do
a quick check in with the impeachment stories. I'm talking
about this creep. It's really gonna get going. And for
people who don't know I'm saying, I'm talking about impeaching
this creep. Yeah, a lot of people just think I'm
saying we're talking about teaches and cream. You were too
(03:57):
dead on it was like a weird Alba wasn't a nuncy.
I should have been if I was really going off
like v O lessons, I'm talking about impeaching this creep. Uh, yeah,
that would have been better. That's trying to swim from
one twelve on a daily basis. We are going to
talk about Mayor Michael Bloomberg's potential run for president again
(04:18):
because you know, our headline the last time we covered
this on yesterday's episode was Bloomberg is here to soothe
the concerns of the billionaire class. But we we were
saying that like figuratively, like that seemed to be the
way that things were lining up. Uh, now we are
going to be saying it literally because that seems to
be like literally how this idea came together. Yes, there's crying,
(04:41):
billionaires are shook. They're fucking crying, billionaires, billionaires. I'm sorry
about the prospector being text. Uh, We're gonna talk about that.
We're gonna ask the question if Drake is not cool anymore.
We're gonna talk about Instagram's pending decision about getting rid
of the like button, YouTube like counts. It's like all
(05:03):
my over enters, is it? Yeah, we might get to
all of the center because a little bit. I guess
we like to ask our guess, what's something from your
search history that's revealing about who you are? My searches
three was billions? Yeah, okay, um, I guess I'll talk
about the other thing that was there. Post office hours.
(05:26):
Post office hours, Okay, okay. I don't think that I
should have to go to the post office. Absolutely. Oprah
doesn't go to the post office. Why should I. It's
like it's like the airport where there's just a bunch
of nasty people getting together and coughing. Only you don't
go anywhere. You just stay in the it's miserable. You
(05:49):
wait in the line. You do the minutia. People kind
of yell at you. Yeah, and it's like off the rip,
Like I just got came in and they're like, oh my, there,
this time is for packages And I'm like man, I
just got like, why are you yelling at me? Yeah?
My favorite is you go to the post office and
there's one one of the workers is either like they're
(06:09):
angry at everybody, and then suddenly one person shows up
and they're so nice to them out of like all
the people. They're like, I told you, if you're putting
in a package that's going internationally, please feel out of
slip over there before coming up, and they're like, how
can I help you, baby, And then someone else comes
up and they're like, I'm sipping something internationally. I don't
know what's going, Like, no, don't just write it down
there right, And then like I said, get back, and
(06:30):
I just like, I like when some because sometimes you
become the favorite, so you never know what you're get
In the point, I think you have to adjust your energy.
It's the same thing that I do and stand up
because when I first started doing stand up, and this
is wow, y'all are gonna probably roast me for this,
but I'm pretty and people don't want to listen to
women talk in general, and then if you're a pretty
(06:51):
woman doing stand up, the definitely don't want to hear
you talk. So I used always kind of like coming
with the energy, like just a little lower and tell
my joke, let my jokes surprise people. Oh, this pretty
woman has funny thoughts, so you gotta do the same
thing in the post Like she can't be pretty and confident. Yeah,
I like pretty and haunted. Now that's what I'm talking.
(07:13):
I want to take a pretty woman who ain't I
on mirrors in her house that I want to intimidate me. No,
but um so I come in with lower energy into
the post office like kind of sad one because I'm
sad to be there, but because I think that like
that disarms the post workers. You come up with too
much confidence, or if you're in a rush, Oh don't
be in a rushed post don't. Oh hell no. They
(07:33):
smell that and they're like, I'm gonna suck you up right.
And also, don't come in there chewing gum with sunglasses on.
That's bad energy when I see people like that in
the post office, Like, yeah, with their fucking sunglass on.
This person about kicking somebody right your packaging and even
straight into trash, right into the trash. But the randomness
of like choosing one person to be nice to, like
(07:55):
that's less than one of population control, like the lottery
where it's just like one person and get stoned, and
that's how you keep your town in order. Oh ship, Yeah,
that's an instruction manual, right, I think so. Yeah, And
I was like where they're hitting blunt in the parking
lot when I was younger. I'm gonna take the judgment
on my voice because there was a site that I
used to get on, rotten dot com. Yeah. Yeah, we
(08:15):
bring it up once a week probably. Yeah. A lot
of fake stuff in there, but I know enough to
keep you enough to keep you interested in medical mysteries
and medical mysteries like dead celebrities, like photos. Who among
us has not seen the autopsy photo on rotten dot com?
How how could you not? Among us? With his chest out,
(08:37):
you can throw the first stone and yeah, you lad,
he who hasn't seen the Tupac autopsy. That's where I
saw the JFK photo for the first time. Rotten dot
com was kind of like my doorway into dark fake
history because sometimes there would be real photos of other
times it would be like, yeah you did, but at
(08:58):
the time you didn't know because you thought the internet
was thing was really right. And I imagine the person
whose job it is like we need more content. Okay,
I'm gonna photoshop JFK just like a grizzled editorial veteran,
like looming over the staff at rotten dot com being
like another, Yeah, like, what is something you think is underrated? Y'all?
(09:25):
At it? Influencers underrated because and obviously we'll get into
the whole likes thing and Instagram stuff later, but I see,
especially because of that stuff, I've seen so much stuff
on the Internet about like, oh, well that'll shut down
these fucking influencers and fuck them and like they don't
have real jobs and blah blah blah. But I think
(09:46):
everyone fails to remember that. And you can speak about
it first person plural. We as influencers, we that is,
we have filling. I have definitely seen something on the
internet at some point or another, on Instagram or on
(10:07):
Facebook or on Twitter and been like, Oh, that looks
like a cool thing. I want to try that. And
then I go try that thing and I get enjoyment.
But guess what if I had nowhere to discover that thing.
I don't walk down the street. I don't like down
set like I don't just like go into random buildings
and be like, what y'all have for me? What's going on?
(10:29):
What is in store for me? Like there's so like
I wouldn't find out about those things, and that happens
to all of us. Yeah, we want to like pan
and condemn these people for creating a career by doing
ship and then showing us the ship and then we
go do to ship. It's literally all it is. Well,
I think it's I think there's there's two versions of criticism.
(10:50):
There's ones who are just haters because they would rather
most of them, yeah, and then there are I think
other people who see other like the you know, the
mirage that influencer sell that contribute to like weird, fake
or unrealistic expectations of life that all depends on but
that's really up to you and like if you can
filter through that ship. I don't personally have a problem
with it's when I see influencers act like they are
(11:12):
God's gift to whatever the fuck that's not like, hold on,
remember where the funk you're at? Really quick, Like you
have you have the privilege of being able to just
sort of commodify your existence to make money, and that's
your job. Respect, you know, get your get your paper.
But I think because there was like a person who
left a one star Yelp review we were trying to
talk about a few weeks ago, Yeah, where an influencer
(11:33):
was pissed because a restaurant didn't hook them up with
enough free ship because they were an influence. She's not
an influencer. She had eleven thousand followers. I have eleven
thousand followers. I'm not an influencer. I'm not selling anything. Yeah,
exactly no, But I get that and that kind of
you know, inflated, stupid ego person. I think though, is
(11:55):
like casting a bad shadow on what is not the
whole industry. And also I don't like the argument that well,
people and children are looking at the Internet and they're
getting sad because everyone's life looks better than theirs. Um,
you know what, before the Internet, that ship was still happening.
Ted does not have a green lawn. He dies that ship.
And you've been looking at Ted's lawn thirsty as hale
(12:17):
because his ship as green as fun. We're in a
drought right now. Do you think he's using water at night?
When where did that come from? Yeah? Meanwhile, Ted is
probably eyeballs up in debt from lawn Die. You know,
people are down here taking the funk everywhere you go,
you know, I mean, people are lying about their status,
(12:38):
they're lying about their money, they're lying about their happiness.
So it's not like if you take that part of
the Internet away, that that sadness isn't gonna still exist,
because it's just a human thing. We purport. We puff
ourselves up to make ourselves feel better. Everyone doesn't. And
so I just think that we have a more instant
access by just looking at your phone. But guess what
if you go outside somebody lying to you. Oh yeah,
(13:01):
you know right now on this show. And I mean,
we have more realistic ideas of celebrities than they did
in the past, so we've we've had them taken down
a peg or two. I think our everyday lives, the
people we look to as living there everyday lives, are
maybe being a little less realistic. I think advertisers themselves
(13:22):
are the people who are actually um underrating influencers in
the sense that most of our generation we're not. We
don't vibe with the same kind of advertising our parents
did where it's like, hey, fuck yeah, look at this
ship are you? Are you a woman who more like clean?
(13:43):
I'm sad and I want the life and body of
this Instagram account? What is that? And subconsciously it works
on you because it's selling you this actual You're like,
is this a real life I could have like this
person's account, and they're like, I do want to go
to there, to that place to eat there, to stay there,
to consume there. And I think that's like the difference
(14:05):
now is like we you almost really need the trust
of somebody or the consumer has to trust the person,
and that's really where you're advertising going to be more
effective and that's that's that's where I think advertisers get that,
like people crave authenticity now, I just think it's hard
to deliver on because there's no way to deliver authenticity
(14:25):
through advertising because your whole purpose is Influencers have been
like except for the ones that are really successful and
can charge a shipload of money, Like most influencers are
tainted the second they get like one offer like like yeah,
like I have band aids for life, We're doing band aids.
I'm I'm cutting myself all the time in the kitchen
(14:46):
because I'm so clumsy with this and thank God for
my wedding dress made of band aids. Yeah, listen, that's
lit though, if you go far as to cut your
finger to aid something you think is overrated, lazy civility. Yeah,
especially in these times. Um, I see so many people
getting upset about, you know, people booing or people not
(15:09):
being nice to them because they don't agree with their politics.
And it's like, I'm sorry, if you are living in
America right now and you really feel like this Maga
ship is for you, I'm a boo your ass. I'mna
be rude to you if you come to the restaurant,
I might spill water on you. Don't let me see
you in ahead, Like it's not the civility. Were so
far past civility, Like people are dying and and it's
(15:31):
so so many people have the luxury of not caring
about that because they don't face it. So it's like,
if you're not gonna face it, or well, guess what,
my black ass is here to help you face it
every day. Like I'm not being polite to racist, I'm
not being polite to people who are fucking killing us.
Well that's the difference. And I think people use the
term civility to obscure the argument, which is, I am
(15:52):
outraged at injustice. It's not like your politics I don't
agree with. It's that you are racist or that you
support It's just racism, fascism, homophobia, xenophobia. That's what the
funk I'm against. It's not that, oh, it's it's well,
they just think differently about It's like, no, you actively
hate a group of people, Yeah, okay, with their demise.
(16:13):
It's not it's not thoughts, it's not your idealistic like
ideology or whatever. It's literally you are down with murder
and you are fucked up. So like, I'm not going
to treat you like a human because you don't treat
me like one. Yeah, And this is one of those
arguments I'm super tired of hearing the other side, kind
of both sides it where they're like, oh, you're gonna
(16:34):
be rude to Trump and say lock her up. That's
or lock him up. That's just as bad as like
everything they've ever said. And it's like no, first of all,
the underpinning ideology of like everything he stands for is
like genocide essentially, It's like, you know, it's racism, it's
you know hatred. Uh and yeah, it's it's just that's
(16:56):
the thing that you hear. You hear both sides. That
is really uh yeah, and I don't want to hear
that from Democrats either. You think you're being the bigger person,
but ship, it's that bigger person. Ship, it's a wrap.
It's a wrap for that you can be such a
big person and then the game is over. I know
we're going a bigger person ourselves into the grace, right, No,
And then I think that's kind of why. That's why
I think now the stances people have to take are
(17:18):
more pronounced and more extreme or not extreme in the
sense that it's too much. But this is where this
is the end of the spectrum where we're at, because
we've exhausted all the right. You can't be vague anymore
in politics, Like we need to know exactly what you mean.
Are you racist or no? Or not? Check yes or no?
There's no maybe and send the note back folded back up.
Are you racist? Yes? No? Or please be civil? What
(17:43):
is a myth? What's something people think it's true? You
know to be false? So people, okay, um, that white
claws are like better for you than any other like
malt beverages at the grocery store. I I've seen so
many people buy white Claws and be like, yeah, but
it's seltzer and it's hydrain, it's liquor. Wait, people, you've someone,
(18:08):
You've heard someone say that it's better for you still
consuming alcohol. But it's just like how people will say,
like filtered alcoholic, but if it's more heavily distilled, it's
better for you. Okay, Yeah, like I really really purely
distilled vodka or something. Impurities are gone. Yeah, and you're
well like you're less likely to get hungover from it, apparently. Yeah,
(18:31):
but they're sugar in that ship too. You stack a
few white cloths. Are white clothes? Sweet? Yeah, there's a
little it's not like meant to be like, oh that's sweet,
but it's it's definitely not just like it's not as
if you're just drinking a Lacroix plus alcohol, like think, yeah,
there's little bit of sugar in there. There's obviously you
know you're drinking, um, there's it's alcohol. Lacroix plus alcohol.
(18:54):
Then yeah, it has a hundred calories per per serving
and those are alcoholic calories, which which is still not
very high when you think about like a shot, it's
not vodka's eighty calories, so it's still like the twenty
calories of sugar basically, yeah, which was, but it's just
like I see people like like they're really like it's
the Lacroix of alcohol, and I'm like, it's mouth like
(19:16):
like old English white claw, same thing. Yeah, this one's cheaper,
I think, yeah, because I think they've done They've really
found that sweet spot though, because Lacroix and like the
Selter game has lended people like like I can get
hydrated and I feel bad and you know this is fine.
That to extend that into alcohol has been like the
(19:38):
perfect thing to now just re energized people to be like, no, man,
I just drink White Claws. Trying to keep my ship here,
I don't drink here, just drink White Claws. Alright, Lacy,
Before we get into our first story, I'm gonna need
to talk to my I was really quickly miles to
me Jack from work. I wanted to tell you about
(20:01):
this thing. I think we covered it, but it bears
repeating that over a hundred million people had their personal
information stolen in a Capital one data heist name and
you know there's a good chance you were affected, and
I'm worried about you, man, No, that's actually I was.
I went to the website. Yeah, you're one of the ones.
(20:24):
Oh yes, I was one of the fortunate hundreds of
millions of people who got selected by the data breach. Gods,
I didn't bother going because it couldn't happen to me.
You know, no way, there's no way. Well, I mean,
I think this is the thing though, there are so
many ways that we're vulnerable with our information and especially
with our browsing. We take that for granted in our
Internet activity. It's all out there for people who want
(20:46):
to see If they want to see it, they can
find a way. That's why using a VPN is so important.
I use a VPN, Jack, I know I've slowly gotten
you to use a chance Um Express VPN is fantastic
because look, there's so many things that you can use
a VPN. Four. Do you want to maybe use a
torrent website? Um legally, you know what I mean? And
(21:07):
then you can or you can also keep your browsing
history private from an Internet service provider. You can get
maybe geo blocked website. So a lot of the times
I like to see soccer highlights in Europe and they'll
be like, oh, I'm sorry this this uh, this content
is restricted from where you are. I click my VPN,
I say, I'm in the UK. Bro in it brov boom.
Do they make you take a quiz like that? Yeah,
(21:28):
they say, yeah, it's like one how do you pronounce brother?
It's like prove you are brit which one of these
is a Lori and it'll be a picture of you Lorie, Lorie,
seasoning salt and a bus. Alright well. Express vpn is
rated the number one VPN provider by tech Radar, c Net,
the Verge, and countless others. So this is the one
to try if you're going to try one for the
(21:50):
first time. It's the one to use if you've been
using them for a while. And you can use our
special link Express vpn dot com slash t dz right
out to arm yourself with an extra three months of
Express vpn for free, support the show and protect yourself.
That's Express vpn dot com slash t d z for
(22:10):
an extra three months free and protect your neck a
ka your data all right now that we've paid the bills,
let's get into the stories of the day. We're gonna
do a quick check in with the impeachment story. It's
going I'm talking about a little bit more uh later
in the week once we start seeing nationally televised it.
(22:32):
What a show that's going to be, mean, I hope god,
because it's anything like the fucking Moller Ship. It's gonna
be a piece. They've said that they're like, we learned
from that, though we learned to I mean, I think
they probably like, don't get a geriatric dude up there
whose voice is not as booming as you think it
is when you photo. I know the president and it's
(22:58):
in there. It's in there. Director. So one question I
think people are thinking about heading into this is how
this will help democrats because there's never been a lack
of information, Like people have been informed that this happens
(23:20):
kind of right from the jump. So it will just
be a matter of like whether it changes qualitatively, like
how they think of think of what happened and how
bad it is, because right now we're just relying on
paper receipts to outrage people like got transcripts. Look what
this guy said on this paper. Read the words and
(23:43):
then now we're going to go to full verbal verbal confirmations.
And I think maybe that's what they can hope for
when you have people like you know, Bill Taylor or
a Maria Vanovitch go up there and from their voices
to you, this is what the funk happened. I'm here,
a real person, you were hearing the talk. Yeah, And
I think they I think they really need to focus
on the connection to the election, the fact that what
(24:07):
he was trying to do was cheat at election. Yes,
his power to you know, do something that endangered our
standing with an ally helped rush out and the goal
in the end was for him to be able to
get an advantage in the election that is not allowed.
(24:30):
All kinds of national security implications all over it. Yes,
you invite the participation of a foreign government into our elections.
You think they're they're because like, yeah, we would love
to help the United States do what's best for the
United States, as Ukraine or whatever country we want to around. Okay,
well how do we make this work for us? There's
that Then you're talking about withholding military aid fighting somebody
(24:54):
who was an aggressive nation. Um, And but you know,
I think it's interesting too the a lot of people
have been talking about whether or not they should keep
using quid pro quo and sort of a lot of
the communications around this because it's yes, I get it
at first, and you're trying to compel maybe like congress
people and other people who have like legal they understand
legal vernacular that the Latin phrase like, oh yes, they
(25:15):
quid pro quo. But now when you distial it down
to the people, that ship might as be who knows,
that could be a tongue twister to like the average person.
And I think a lot of people saying we need
to call it bribery, extortion and inviting foreign influence that
would threaten our national security, all in service of this
president's personal goals, and we can dumb it down even
(25:37):
further from Marca, you scratch my back, I scratched your
back crimea exactly. But even then those supporters like dude, honestly,
he could blow the crime. They're totally fine with him
doing crime. Some people are fine with crime. I love scams.
I support people who do those types of crimes. I
love it. I mean, that's the that's the thing that
(25:57):
it comes back to, though, Like that that pole that
we talked about on a previous episode that he could
do anything and they and they let him get away
with it, like once this is over, assuming he's still
in office, which he will be like he's going to
keep trying to cheat at the election. Like there's just
no So yeah, I don't know, like trying to foreground
(26:22):
that because Republicans issued their list of witnesses they'd like
to call and it's just a bunch of like you know,
conspiracy theories. It's just one wise. They're like, why don't
we bring Hunter Biden ut have him answer a few questions,
like what's gonna say? This is about the president leaning
on Ukraine. They're still trying to get information on Joe Biden.
They're trying to use the trial to get it and
(26:43):
bring Biden up here and let's talk about his dealings
with his father's company and figure out something. And let's
Democrats like, we're not interested in that. That's not what
this ship is about. Yeah, And I think that's also
shows Republicans don't have a fucking fact witness so rebut
what is happening? They don't have anybody who is there
be like, no, the motherfucker's a lying everybody who is there,
so yep, that happened. They would need to call Trump,
(27:06):
they would have to call Trump baby, or then if
you look right, John Bolton, and now Mick Mulvaney is
like hopping onto his lawsuit to be like, who do
we which parent do we listen to Congress or the
White House? Whether or not we should testify? Um Like, eventually,
right if Mulvaney and Juliani or whatever, all those people
don't testify, the pressure is gonna build on one of
(27:28):
those people where it will look like they are the
fall person. And then what happens then, right when will
Julianni go oh hell no, like you think. Let me
tell you something, phone, homie. I put my air pods
in upside down every day, not because I don't know
how they work, but because I'm playing a long game
and I'm a snake, and I will suck you up
if you try and come from me. Although I don't
(27:48):
know what's gonna happen with Rudy, but you know, eventually
it will be a bit of a knives out party
where everybody's trying to figure out who's gonna stab who.
And they're really going to have to consider that because
we all know that Trump doesn't have any loyalty when
it comes to the people who work for him. Don't
let you take the fall very easily. He's fired so
many people from his cabinet, and uh so you have
(28:10):
to know that if you stand tall long enough, somebody
will get the hit. Well, that's why I left Partners
one of the associates of Rudy Giuliani, who was doing
around the world Ukraine quid pro quote campaign with him.
The second he was arrested and Trump Mariah carried him
and was like, oh, I don't know her. He's That's
what he told his lawyer. I'm talking now, because he
was like this motherfucker tried to act like he doesn't
(28:31):
know me. Okay, you're about to know Hi, You're about
to remember me. But we'll see what he does because
even then we don't know if he's gonna try and
get immunity and plead the fifth whatever. But you can
still tell people are in their feelings. It doesn't matter
that there's no don't there's no such loyalty when you know,
Noah Honor a month thief. How many people are on
that phone call? No, maybe like people on the call. Yeah,
(28:55):
there's apparently that's not uncommon for when a president is
having an important official call with another head of state. Uh, well,
he's just we're doing crime on three Yeah, hold on,
hold on, mom? Hang up right? Yeah, Hello, hello, momm
You can't I can't get in trouble for what I'm
(29:16):
about to say, mom, because I hang up, Mom? Hang up?
Have you ever been this is that reminds me back
in my day when used a three way call on
a landline. I remember you, Have you ever been caught?
Have you been caught by your parents listening on a
phone call on your line? Oh? Yeah, where the somebody
calls for them and then you're like, okay, hang up
and then you're like, have it on mute exactly. Yeah. Man,
(29:39):
I remember my my friend's mom caught us talking about
weed once on the phone. And then my mom like
a she one time listening on a call was having
with the girl, but but acted like she wasn't spying on,
like she didn't care. But I'm like, but you're on
the line right right. She's like, I don't know. Maybe
(30:00):
it didn't end up in any smoke for me, but
it's like, what was that all parents was nicer? Than mine.
If a boy called and his voice was too deep,
they just ignored a call. You can't talk to my daughter. Hello, yeah,
lazy home? Oh yeah, fourteen plus twenty. They would just
hang up on them in the next day school, like
(30:21):
I called you and your mama said you weren't home.
I was like, I'm always homes She never clarinet practice
the clarinet. Guys. Let's talk about billionaires. I'm worried for them.
So the storyline seemed to line up too well. You
had like Bill Gates coming out being like it was
between Warren and Trump. Me a person who claims to
(30:44):
stand for like liberal values and human rights around the world,
I'd have to think really long and hard about who
I'd vote for because she wants to take lots of
my billions, not all of them, but lots of my billions.
So he was getting worried. You can see other billionaires
getting worried. A lot of people in the financial industry
(31:05):
talking about how like they wouldn't they'd sit out the
election if it was Elizabeth Warren because of her taxing them. Uh,
and then Bloomberg enters the race and it's like, wow,
it seems causal, but surely we'll never find out there's
a causal link. People call him the unitied, like you
could actually unite both wings of the party. Turns out
(31:27):
it was based on a phone call that Bezos made
like a couple of months ago, or at least we
now know that Jeff Bezos called Michael Bloomberg and was like, hey, so,
what are you doing for the next couple years? You
know you want to help me out real quick, right,
because you know, I got all these Amazon and Fulfillment
employees in my basement while they did a tour and
(31:48):
they're trying to like unionize. I want to use the
bath throw. But there's this there's this clip that really
drove home to me, Like what what I think I
often failed to appreciate about billionaires? Um, and I think
we have the clip. Yeah, this is Lee Cooperman, who
is a hedge fund manager only worth about three point
(32:10):
two billion dollars, a broke boy, as we might call
in the scheme of things for billionaires. But it's interesting
to see like where we've gone, right, We've gone from
billionaires sort of threatening their coins real quick, like when
it comes to political contributions, like hey man, you better
have the right candidate for us, we must sit out.
And people weren't fazed by that. They're like, okay, whatever,
we'd like these candidates. And then it's like, well, um,
(32:32):
maybe you know, it would be fucked up if somebody,
you know, took our money away, because that would be
really messed up. And now we're at the crying face
right where Lee Cooperman. Yeah, well they realized too, there's
more of us than there are them. Yeah, we got
at the end of the day. Um, and yeah, just
hearing this guy first, he talks about why he's you know,
he's a good person. Why billionaires are not bad people,
(32:55):
unethically moral people for hoarding wealth while other people cannot
achieve anything. Okay, I mean was government Rett Tapement promoted
the regulation I boasted, have defense, national offense. He's talking
about Trump. His deportment is not presidential and we need
a unifier in that position. And because the country's being
torn apart, so let him make his own decision. I
(33:16):
am not in favorable the impeachment inquiry. I want the
American people to decide in November of what the future
should be. I think, um, I mean, I think it's cobbs.
People can not only see the emotion on your face,
but hear it in your voice when you talk about this. Lee,
why pause together himself? I care, Let's swallow it. That's it.
(33:48):
I care about my coins, not my Coinslease, don't make
me be pulling like the rest of year. The whole
time again, he goes back and forth, trying to be like, well, yeah,
Trump's bad, but also like these tax brakes are fucking
to fire. I love them. And again, let's not worry
(34:10):
about impeachment. Let's just have the election that he's trying
to cheat at. That's what the impeachment is about, you guys. Well,
but hey, look but my beyon's my beans, they say. Uh.
Then goes on again because as they talk about he's like,
you know, but you y'all are hoarding wealth. You know, Like,
what what what do you say to this? Will you
have so much money? And then Cooperman sort of discusses
(34:32):
his plan of what he's gonna do with his wealth.
But then he really gives up the game at the
end of this sound bite. And I told him at
the time, my plan wish to give away all my money,
not half give away all my money. And then my
game plan is half I'm gonna give away in my lifetime,
and you have the half, I'm gonna give it to
my family as a legacy in the form of foundation
can meet cheriodically and give away the money. So so
(34:55):
go ahead, I'm sorry, go finish your thought. Lee, Well,
I don't need to. There's a warren or a government
giving way of my money. Tell me, what do you
think the maxim tax fuit should be? Stop talking about
two percent when you when you when you're basically misrepresenting
the facts. It's two percent of wealth, two percent of
my wealth. Every year I have to figure out my
network and give two of it to you. And look,
(35:17):
I said, I'm would give you all the money. Okay,
so y'all just wait till I'm dad, and I'd give
it to And just as many opportunities for them to
just take a little bit more money, they gone. I
can't even say to work. This drove home to me,
(35:38):
how like you don't become a billionaire by liking money
the same amount as the rest of us. You become
a millionaire by like having a pathological like obsession with money,
sexual like just like everything emotional bond with your money
to the point that the idea that Elizabeth Warren would
(36:01):
raise taxes on you would make you weep on national
television that shows you. I mean look and all for
people who have so much money to give a fraction
of that a way to help other people, Right, That's
what this is about. It's so Uncle Sam could fucking
pull up to your sweet sixteen in a Bugatti like
ha ha, it's right for this ship. I mean, because
(36:22):
that's how the system works now. But like what we're
talking about is being able to create more equity society
and these people again, because their whole existence is built
off of this notion that some people siphon up the
wealth other people got to scrap it out in this
other game called poor people life. Right, And I mean
there's six billionaires and I think we just really need
(36:43):
to get one of those Kanye slave nets he was
talking about that plays a little trap artisanal cheese is
and old world wide and trap them and take them money.
This is what it's It's awful and it's like you
can't call yourself a good person if you are knowingly
hoarding wealth that is literally killing people. We talked about it.
I think on here with the Koch brothers which one
(37:04):
of them died of pancratic cancer, but had made so
many strides in that research because he was trying to
stay alive. People are now surviving much longer with that
type of kids. But it was built off of like, yo,
I need to live forever, and I guess the knock
on effect, sure as there's meaningful cancer research, but really
this is about me, right, right, So what would happen
if we had the resources to do that for all
(37:26):
types of diseases, or the resources to help people escape
cyclical poverty? But you'll stick ass want to sit at
home and you're yea crying about how much money, Like
you won't even miss it, you won't even miss But like,
if they're so concerned, right, why don't they all chip
in a billion dollars the billionaire chips in a billion
dollars and then buy themselves sometime if there was like
(37:47):
an effort where they're like, if they were really smart, right,
they're like, we've put together a fucking six hundred billion
dollar fund to tackle homelessness and poverty worldwide, they might
buy themselves some goodwill. But right now, all their energies
spent on well, you know, because Elizabeth Warren's mean and
Bernie Sanders says we shouldn't exist, And I get that
(38:09):
for these people, right, they in their minds prior, like,
but this is the system, man, Like what the funk
y'all doing? I just figured it out and I'm I'm
top earner. But at the same time, that's where they
need to have a come to Jesus moment to say,
maybe this whole thing that I came up in is
fucked up. And they're never going to have that because
people don't have empathy. I fundamentally think that so many
people lack empathy, and I think that struggle it must
(38:30):
be what creates it. And if you don't have any struggles,
you don't give a funk about anybody else. I mean,
we're all going to die alone. We were born alone.
It's fucking bleak, but it is what it is. And like,
you struggle so much your heart turns black, right, and
it's the same then you're like everyone's a horrible person.
I can't trust anyone. But I mean, I don't think
people realize how close we are up being back at
like storming the Bastie, Like if the billionaires want to
(38:51):
keep telling us to let us eat cake. Then you know,
you don't catch these hands book gates like killing our country.
I think this is what's the the beauty of what's happening.
You know, even though it's such a fractured political environment,
that there is a shift a little bit more to
looking upward at the people who have a ton of
money and being like, hold the funk up, can we
(39:13):
look up what's over there? What's going on over there?
And we did. They've distracted us for a long time,
and they still do very well doing it very well
because people are starting to really notice. Yeah, well it's interesting.
I mean, you couldn't say that the last election cycle,
people are like billionaire. We need to be talking about
these billionaires. We need to be talking about what they
have so much money right now they don't know how
(39:34):
to invest it. Talk about that last week or maybe yesterday,
about the fact that they have so much money, they've
ran out of investment ideas and now there's trillions of
dollars just sitting in banks because they don't they have
so much money. They literally don't know what to do
with it. That's not except for give it to people
who need it. They know not to do that right now,
that's mine. But that's mine, that's mines, you know, So
(39:56):
keep crying on TV and we will continue to inject
that straight age. I mean the preference for having a
foundation with your last name on it as compared to
like the giving it to the government who will create
a program where it is, you know, a prolonged, ongoing
system of creating a more equitable society. Like that ties
(40:20):
into like the DNA of America being like this individualistic
like well, it's all about like me pulling myself up
by the bootstraps. And everyone was raised on that, especially billionaires.
They bought into it so much that they just every
waking moment was devoted to dozen six of most billionaires
(40:41):
wealth come from family money. Yeah, probably you had Gucci
boots right there, like you pulled yourself up by your
great grandfather's bootstraps, right yeah. Yeah. Um. I think that's
it's just so sad what capitalism is done to us,
because it is just such a it's so deep be
inrooted in this country that it's hard to help people
(41:03):
escape it. There are people out here living paycheck to
paycheck who are ridiculing McDonald's employees, for one, and fifteen
dollars an hour when it's like you are broke yourself,
don't you want everyone to have a living wage. Well
that's one thing that Bernie and AOC we're saying, is that,
like the one thing you got to give him credit
for his billionaires have class solidarity. Man. They like the
second they see they hear the bat signal, they're all
(41:24):
all in. Yeah, exactly, literally the bat signal. He comes
down to Fox of Elizabeth Warren and Bernie, get the
funk out of your right. You're making it hot, excellent batman.
But yeah, when you look at like even what the
Gates Foundation, like what the endowments are like spending, or
(41:45):
what their money looks like. It's only like not even
three billion a year, But I think about how much
like what they're getting back in stock and things like them, like, oh,
we're trying to create an equitable world with a fraction
of our wealth. He has more money today than he
did when he retired. Yeah, that's how much money is
given away. Maybe we should start writing children's books. We
need to indoctrinate the kids early, because like I remember
(42:07):
being a kid and getting asked what my dream job was,
and that's still a thing like a dream job. It's
a job, right, Yeah. I do something that makes me
very happy and I'm very privileged blessed to do that.
But at the end of the day, it's still fucking work.
Like I don't know if life should be about work? Yeah, no, absolutely,
I mean, because that's what it's about. You work to
create capital and boom, Yeah, I think. Yeah, I just
(42:31):
got to tell these kids, you know, like, fuck fuck
the flex too, because I'm serious, Like consumer culture too
is the reason why people ultimately want to side with them,
because that's a lifestyle that we still hold up on
this pedestal of like your fucking p jet everywhere, you
know what I mean, fucking go stay in suitees, doing
fucking spending money, have a Gucci fucking everything. There's that
(42:53):
element to that also keeps people at that at the
forefront of their minds as to why they want to
work hard too, because there's a bit of a lifestyle
mirrage that we're all trying to attain in our different
versions of two. But only six hundred one people are billionaires, y'all.
How many people are in America? So how long are
we going to let them kill us? The six hundred people.
(43:14):
Who are seven billion people in the world. That's not
a fair fight. Yeah, we say six hundred seven billion, Well,
there's we catch these people outside. It wasn't a fair one.
It wasn't a fair one. Man. It was six hundred
or seven billion at the AMC parking lot. Man, I
did not expect that. We don't know how they all
got to everybody at the I pick in Westwood with
(43:41):
the hands. Yeah, created a human chain like in that
coke commercial. But they're all making fists. That's the new.
Now our show is on a watch list. All right,
we're gonna take a quick break. We'll be right back.
M And we're back. And uh, this is something that
(44:11):
has kind of been in the ether for a little while.
The Instagram might get rid of the light count on post.
Yeah might ether. Yeah, they might eat ether the that
that's been in the ether, and they might ether the
light count. What's the idea behind this? I don't. First
of all, they took away activity so you couldn't see
(44:33):
how thirsty people you followed were. My goodness, I'm actually
mad at that. It's also because now you can't calculate
the proper time for you to post a picture, So
on certain days and every day, there's a prominent time
where your users are the most active. So if you
want to have the most reached on a photo, it
used to be before they changed the algorithm and started
(44:55):
like showing photos randomly, it was all about the time
that you posted. And then when they change to the
algorithm and made the timeline no longer linear, you can
still cheat that by going to the audience and seeing
if people were liking pictures. So if you would go
to the audience and it would be like a couple
of seconds in between every single like, or one second
in between every single like from your followers, you knew
that people were active and online and it was a
(45:16):
good time to post, and they took that away so
that you can't know when you should be posting, and
that way they can control what is being seen. All
they're trying to do is they realize that Instagram was
so easily accessible for people to monetize, and they're having
difficulty of monetizing it themselves, So they're taking away everything
that we can possibly do on the app to monetize
(45:38):
our pages, so that people will be forced to buy
ads from fucking Facebook. Interesting and they're cheating it. They're
lying and appealing to you know, people who are probably
hurt by this app by being like, hey, we're taking
away these legs for you so that when you get one,
like on that picture of that struggle meal that you posted, um,
nobody will know that chopped up hot dogs and means
(46:05):
got one leg. You went on the New Kids on
the Block cruise ship. Then Danny looks real bored with you.
You took a picture with joyful tone right right, what
was on the New Kids cruise which is a shame
for Really he's struggling because he used to they used
to call him, they call names. But the you know,
I think it's a double in story because obviously there
(46:27):
absolutely is a thing of like, well, y'all be can't
be making more money than we are, so we have
to dip in first. But I think there is a
bit of a benefit though too. I think for people
who might not be like actually on the in the
business of posting on Instagram, but sort of caught up
in the optics of like how many followers you have,
the pressure that people can like, you know, younger people,
(46:48):
I think more especially thinking of like, well, this doesn't
have likes. I can actually quantify myself worth versus through likes.
But it does provide cover. Like you're saying, being like, well,
you know that that could have a benefit, and the
business do anything to help people. That's not what they're
purely to help people, um facts, not even pharmaceutical businesses
(47:12):
especially not them. But yeah, I think that that's what
they say is right now we're testing. This is from
one of the higher ups that Facebook or Instagram. Right now,
we're testing making like counts private. You'll be able to
see how many likes given photo video of yours has received,
but no one else will. We're announcing that we're going
to start testing in the US next week. You clarify
(47:33):
that the hidden number of likes would not be rolled
out to users in the entire country at once, but
to a small group. And I think that I like
when we talk about the billionaire class. I'm not comparing
influencers to billionaires necessarily, but like, if you're talking about people,
I guess who get lots of attention, and if that's
what everybody wants, there's not a lot. Like most people's
instagrams are very normal and like just pictures of their kids, like,
(47:53):
you know, it's not the mono jet, you know, so
I could see how that would be beneficial to those people. Yeah,
and also people just a public service announcement. Pictures of
a newborn child too soon, not a good look out. First,
let the baby's head form a little bit. I have
I go back and forth with Amy Miller past guests,
(48:15):
where we send each other photos from our what we
see on our timeline of people posting fresh out the
wound babies because they're not I get it, you're celebrating
your life. But also the cuteness probability is very low
for a fresh out the wound baby, like a hair
dryer first or something like Yeah, we're not even like
necessarily in the delivery room. But I just see ones
(48:36):
where they're like two days old. They're like, look at
this child. I'm like this, yeah, but he but blessing.
It's a little crapy bas the circle of life. Yeah,
And whenever it was an ugly baby, I just say, oh,
congratulations or that's a blessing. I will not call it
baby cute. That's yeah. Are you and your wife's photos Like,
(49:01):
let me know when when these kids want to works, Yeah,
they gotta they got a manager kids. Uh what a
blessed an extraordinary family. Uh, let's talk about YouTube because
they same same they are. So now they're changing their
terms of service or they're about to change them in December.
(49:23):
That says, quote, YouTube may terminate your access or your
Google accounts access to all or part of the service
YouTube if YouTube believes in its sole discretion that provision
of the service YouTube to you is no longer commercially viable.
So they're out here basically saying you are making coin,
(49:46):
We're gonna will fire you. YouTube canfires YouTube anymore. And
I think that's one again has a dual purpose. Right
on one side, people can be like, oh, this could
be great for them regulating hate speech or like you know,
the red pillar, but hate speech makes money. But exactly,
but then who knows if that's what that means, right
versus accounts that might be railing against the YouTube algorithm
(50:07):
or their ad sense or these other things. And they're like, actually,
this isn't commercially viable because we're trying to appeal to
our own advertage. I'm sorry, you gotta go. I love
that YouTube just sent out an email that was like, hey, listen,
we don't do whatever the funk we want and you
can't question us. Yeah, this is no longer a platform
to share ship. Thanks so much for using YouTube. Yeah.
(50:27):
I don't know if like that's in response. I'm sure
I know this is like huge in the YouTuber world.
I think a lot of people have been saying this
is why YouTubers, like especially creators who have like sizeable followings,
should unionize to be able to protect themselves from ship
like this. Um, but I wonder if it's because they've
been taking hits to their ad revenue that they've slave
been like okay, fuck, if this is going to be
a profit machine, we literally have to treat it like
(50:50):
just a network. It's like your show or your channel
isn't commercially viable because you're giving like hair tips or
whatever the fun. And that's so crazy to treat people
who just post to your platform like they're your employee,
Like this started is like I get it, Like it's
monetized ads and clicks and people who watch your videos
(51:10):
and subscribers, but like, so what are they saying, like
you'll be to get to work. I mean, stop talking
about politics. If you get back to just the these
are monopolies, and this is what corporations will do to
you if you know they if they know that you
can't go anywhere else, then they're just gonna write, right.
(51:33):
I think that's the key, and we have to continue
to have that kind of developing spirit because Facebook has
lived in you know, basically monopoly for so much longer
than I think any social has to be the longest
of any social website because before it used to be like, oh,
we're on Exanga, now we're on my Space. We own
(51:54):
black people meet, but we're going back to black Planet,
you know when they get but believe we just need
I don't know, let's go back to my Space. It's
just as bad as Facebook, and all your family is
still on it. But it's not it's not like the
spirit of innovation. It's the fact that they're crushing. Yeah,
they're crushing everything. They hire. Like the most lobbyists in Washington,
(52:19):
d C. Like these met Google, Facebook, Apple, and Amazon.
They run ship and they're not going to you know,
there should be seven different competing video players that people
are uploading videos to the same way that there's you know,
they're like when cars became a thing, Ford didn't just
(52:39):
get to make cars like from then on everybody. There
were a bunch of different car companies that came in
and started, but they were like, well, all right, the
car game will you know, grow and proliferate, but funk
public transit right, yeah exactly. That was their version of like, no,
I get that up to get that the funk out
of it. I guess like with that kind of like
how we talk about the elasticity clause and the Constitution,
(52:59):
it's like, now we have to regulate the internet. Now
these tech giants are crushing us the same way that
you know, other industries have monopolized things and hurt the economy,
and now they have such a share of people's attention
and like really unethical business practices, whether that's having like
outright manipulative political as, are deceptive and lies right up,
(53:20):
said the KKK is checking out site for lives and
they said, no, lives are detective, but he said, we
do it real good. Yeah, And I think that's when
you see to like that's where their power has become
completely ridiculous and they're like, but we're just making money.
It's like yeah, but now see this is the problem now,
like where you have everyone's ears and eyes. Yeah, now
(53:40):
this is different, it's becomes something else. Sorry, you've got
to give up the keys now. Yeah. But that's also
the problem with corporations in general, because like, once you
get to a certain size, you got to be evil
as fu Yeah. Yeah, yeah, that's why I think there's
so much energy behind like people on the on the
left right now, whether it be locally or nationally, because
(54:02):
there's a lot of things that are lining up that
are really sucking us over about the way things used
to operate that need to be changed. Uh. And it's
also why people probably are lining up on the right
and ready to have a violent revolution if Trump gets impeached.
But something which is so crazy to me, because people
on the right are suffering just as much, if not
(54:24):
more than people on the left. The right their base
is all poor people, Like I mean there it's poor,
the poorest of the poor, and then the richest of
the rich, and like a little bit in between. So
it's like, you guys are hurting, but their main goal
is just to maintain white supremacy. Really, that's why it's
they don't care what why supremacy ain't even working that
good no more. But that's the but that's the currency
they're dealing with. It's not as late as it used
(54:46):
to be. I know, but again try and tell them
that because they harken back to a time or like
I remember when a black person served me, right, But
we're not gonna go back there. I'm gonna keep Slarpert
on the same water found you. But I'm saying this
is there. They want. They want to go to T
B T machine but it's too late. Yeah, we're not
going back to slavery, like it's I'm sorry. So they
want to cut out these different versions. So they're like fine,
(55:08):
like them find police brutality. Let's arrest a guy for
eating a chicken sandwich on a fucking smart play platform.
Yeah that's what I that's that ship because that's the
only way I can get my jolly's now by thinking like, well,
that wouldn't happen to me. All right, guys, I wanna
I want to ask, is Drake officially like not cool anymore?
(55:29):
Is that? Like that as a sentence he got he
got booed off stage at Camp Flogna, which is like
the most senious seeing kids Tyler the creator, it's a
it's a cool sort of more hipster hip hop, you know,
and hipster. You know, that's all the odd future fans,
you know what I mean, like so alright, which again
(55:50):
that's its own scene, you know. But when you think
about like a lot of odd future fans, I don't
know how many of them really like Drake, like what
that overlap is. Because I get that Drake is Tyler
the Creators, one of his favorite artists. But a lot
of people it's a mixture of them just being like
fuck erk. But also I think a lot of people
also thought Frank Ocean that was gonna come out, and
(56:12):
when Frank Ocean did not come out, and they got
maybe the opposite of Frank Ocean. If you're like an
odd future you know, Wolfgang kill them all day one
Flogno kid, Uh, then yes, maybe that would draw you
the wrong way. But I don't think. I don't. Look,
he's clearly not uncool anymore, because motherfucker, he's still gonna
he's still gonna sell records like they're going on the
(56:32):
style so right that that that was just such a
humbling moment to watch. I was humbled at that moment.
It wasn't even I'm not I'm not even drinking. Yeah,
that's what the fans thought, basically. Yeah, basically it's literally
put on Gucci headbands. They all became soldier and you
even with the world had the world from the kid Frank,
(56:56):
that's when we came from. It's crazy to me though,
that he was performing and obviously this is a very
tepid crowd, and then he goes, if y'all want to
keep going, I will, And I don't know why he
asked that, because just performed to them. I think he's
being very Canadian at that point. He asked for their
consent and they said no, would you like a few
more songs? Oh okay, I've never seen that. And it
(57:21):
was at a concert. And then there's a little video
afterwards where the crowd realizes that Frank is never coming
on because they're thinking that Drake was the open. They
realized that Frank's not coming on, and you just hear
this one man shriek and fall. It's like, that's great,
I mean, but they should know. I feel like Frank
Ocean was supposed to has been build to play the
(57:44):
Odd Future Carnival or Camp flog n every year basically,
and then and then like bails out at the last moment,
or I feel like everybody usually on that bill every
year one of the head one of the headliners is
a no show and then someone else comes in Sam
where they're like, look, we're just not going to tell
him that Frank's not coming because we don't want him
to not buy the ticket. I mean it was a
(58:06):
huge show, though, huge show. Yeah, I I went. I
haven't been to a flog maybe five years. But it's
a vibe. Kids are all very it's like really not
on some bullshit. I was surprised, you know, like everyone's
very chill there because they're all it's like very much.
Everyone's kind of about the same thing there. It's not
a bunch of different people like they're like, no, we
(58:27):
all love Tyler and everything of the Odd Future Universe. Yeah,
like a comic. Yeah, okay, that makes sense then, because
that was my other things. I was like, nobody, nobody, Yeah,
that's what I was. People did, But I think it
was a mixture of people who a probably didn't have
the expectations set so high. And even Tyler said that
(58:47):
on his Twitter He's like, Okay, I think it was
a mixture of people having funked up expectations and then
like reality hitting them, but they were like no, Tyler
made us believe, led us to believe that it possibly
Frank Ocean could come on. Yeah, I think that you
kind of do, but I don't think that he yeah, baby,
but I think he underestimated how excited people were for sure.
(59:07):
And Drake was doing all his email musical. Drake has
some sad boy ship, you know, like he was doing
like so far gone when they started booing yeah, which
is Tyler's favorite song, which is why he didn't and
he's like, you didn't have to h Well, it is
the number two trending thing. But hopefully damn d I
think and a Drake can recover from the people like
(59:30):
seeing Drake get kicked. Yeah, that's what he's like, one
of those few people you're like, well, I like this
song and also like to see him. Get shirt on
Drake if you can hear me out there, get you
a glass of moscato ye, go to your favorite Houston
strip club. I mean from day one, people I've heard
that opinion, like, yeah, I kind of like his music,
(59:51):
but I hate him for whatever reason. I can't like
figure out why. Well, He's the Taylor Swift of Wrap, right,
you know he's only worth asgusting. He's like, he's very poppy.
He's always on the radio. I think when you get
to a point of high saturation, people just start hating
on you. Right of course fatigue, Yeah, get drizzy fatigue.
(01:00:15):
So we think that has begun like in a Mormon
this will make it more mainstream. I think this is
happening to him in front of an audience who was
very enthusiastic and quite literally didn't wanted the polar opposite
when he pulled up, like Drake could get booed if
he showed up at Stagecoach. It was like you know
what I mean, it was like set it up, like
I'm pretty sure he would get booed there. So there's
(01:00:36):
always an audience that won't like you. But I don't
think that it means that Drake fell off. All right,
we'll see what the next album is. The next album
will know. We'll also see if this like the perception
of this being a huge l takes takes on a life,
is that? What is that what the pieces are about?
It's like, I think Drake's done without different crowd. He
(01:00:58):
was in front of I just think it's you know,
it is what it is. It's a video of him
getting booed off stage. Yeah, I mean also, you're doing
an odd future show, like they have a very specific taste.
So Drake, you knew what it was when you signed up.
But I think he kind of thinks that all because
you know, he's eclectic where he's like every other pop
star where when there's a hot sound happening, he's doing it.
(01:01:19):
Remember what we talked about him doing the British rap
and then gave that up real quick, thank god. So
but I wonder, like who is universally loved, Like if
if Beyonce came out, would they have bood Beyonce? House stays,
that's a good question, I guess. So yeah, you're saying
there's levels to it, Like even if you don't funk
with Beyonce, with someone happen if Stevie Wonder came on,
(01:01:40):
would they have boo on stage? You know, if something
like that happened, then you'd have real takes out here,
like these kids are full of ship because some people
already were coming at the fans and being like, of
course he's like young Jen or gen Z kids who think,
you know, we were trying to be original, but only
shop at fucking vin stores type shit. Like what would
(01:02:02):
happen if they booed somebody who everyone's like, no, no, no,
don't please Stevie, yes, please god? That would that next year?
I can't flog. Did something happen Donald Trump? Here? What?
(01:02:22):
Oh my god? It would hurt me? What was your
brains at? Yeah? When they start so far back, she
got a rat tails, got a bunch of rat tails back.
Oh my god. Yeah, but obviously Drake's not on the
Stevie Wonder legend. But well, Solange performed. I can't flog, No,
she was fine, so I'd imagine, yeah, her whole branded
(01:02:44):
chicken is Like that would have been the true test
to see how anti like anyti mainstream those kids would
have been. If Beyonce came out, Yeah, but like that energy.
But the energy though too. It's you know, if you're
at a concert and you already you need a certain energy.
If R and B person came out suddenly one, I'm
on like some well, I guess they also want to
see Frank Ocean, so they weren't really read to like
rip their faces off. I don't know. I feel like
(01:03:05):
anybody like when Beyonce appears before you feels blessed that
beyond like just even whether you like her music or not.
It's like Beyonce decided to be here breathe. But that
could be a generational difference, right, A nineteen year old
might not give a fun They're like, yes, that old
people ship. But you know what to I will say this,
(01:03:25):
Drake is not a very exciting person to watch perform.
His music is pretty slow. He cannot dance. Um. He
you know, he works the crowd, but he's really just
kind of walking around and being cute. Frank Ocean can
play the piano. Frank Ocean is a dynamic performer. Um,
and can sing um. Drake cannot sing and we'll sing
(01:03:48):
so in conclusion. So there's also probably those jobbacks is amazing.
His songs are great, a loud volume and get drunk
and then go to a Drake concert and dance and
you don't really know every word. Actually yeah, just up,
turn up, because I've been to a Drake concert and
there was one point where I guess he was trying
to do some fan interaction thing where he was on
(01:04:10):
this big wheel that they lifted into the center of
the console and he just walks around and gave people compliments,
but for real kind of compliments. He's like, Hey, you
in the pink, just you beautiful girl, You're beautiful. You
win that blue skirt. You're working at blue skirt? You queen,
I see you. You had you had his Hell, hey girl,
(01:04:30):
I want to be with you. Like literally just walked
aroout and gaze doing affirmations for people. Wow, hey you
are worthy. Okay, who else? Sir? There's a light in
your eyes that I really there's something about you that
makes you want to believe in love again. I didn't
realized because I was so young at the time, but
it was right. He's just spreading positivity. Is lazy. It's
(01:04:55):
been a pleasure as always having you. Where can people
find you? Follow you here? You you can find me

is my own tweet I got in trouble for on Twitter,
but it was fun. Ladies. All the good men are taken,
(01:05:39):
so go ahead and put on your Alicia Keys braids
and do the unthinkable. And then this is one from
n l Vossi. So there's a video going around about
a woman who was proposed to at someone else's wedding,
and so people are like, do not propose my wedding.
I'm so serious. And then the nl Vassi retweeted and said,
(01:06:00):

your water breaks, security will escort you and your disrespectful
unborn child out disrespectful unborn child. Disrespect Yeah, and then
you would hold a grudge like when it's born. Yeah,
they're like, oh you know this is Darren det my face,
(01:06:20):

first birthday, you pull up with the priest, the priests

great Twitter? Instagram? Great moving on Twitter? I like tweets.
I like Molly Lambert at Molly Lambert. Okay, rumors me
(01:07:04):
grooving out to rumors. I don't know why it's still
still still hits. Uh. And then this was from Udota
Travis at professor dot. If you refuse to eat with
your hands, your dick is trash. I will not explain
my logic here. If you refused to eat with your hands, yeah,
that makes sense. Yeah, but then also I'm sure I
know people whose dicker is trash and they eat with
(01:07:25):
their hands, so there might be exceptions to the almost
with their hands. Yeah. Keep the fingers strong, Yeah, fingers strong.
I have a Molly Lambert tweet uh that I've been
enjoying red a blind item yesterday that said Freddie Mercury
fucked Jim Varney and good luck getting me to think
(01:07:48):
about anything else ever again. Jim Varney from The Earnest Films. Uh,
that blew my fucking mind. That's a fascinating combination. Yeah,
that is right, I can Yeah, I hope that's true.
It needs to be true. Yeah, and then that makes
me think Verne was actually Freddie Mercury the whole. It's
(01:08:10):
actually like a wink to his past lover, Freddie Mercury.
N He's like, can we write this movie? Yeah? Can
you imagine? Yeah, moment Freddie Murky watching Earnest Bits to
a TV and at Miller High Life. H G I
G H tweeted I think about this tweet all the time.
(01:08:30):
And it's a screen grab of an old tweet from
Thomas Gorton that says Attenborough has no respect for crabs,
always gives them ridiculous music. Their gestures to him is
such a great Uh. Yeah, it's a it's a BBC
Nature Documentaries joke. But step cut, keep cut. But seriously,
(01:08:53):
for the people who know, lay off the crabs man. Uh.

(01:09:15):
as well as the song we ride out on miles
What second to be today? This is a track from
producer from Dorset in England, Uh, skin shape and it's
called after Midnight and it's a great just sample based
instrumental track. Uh it's again it's viby, you know, and
it feels like after midnight This feels like some shit,
(01:09:36):
you know, the the days are getting shorter, you know
what I mean, and you go outside smoke, you bloe,
you know, put this in your headphones. Does anybody else
feel like this year, like Daylight Savings is off a
little bit or something and it just gets dark earlier
than usual, like right, but you know what do you
mean like comparatively, Yeah, compared to years past, like this year,
(01:09:58):
it seems maybe it's just something that you notice every year,
and I forget that I noticed that every year, but
somebody shout out to me if you've, if you've noticed
the same thing that it just seems like there might
not be a scientific tific basis for you're like, who
else is hallucinating this hallucinating? Everybody on Twitter is saying
just getting too dark, too soon, And I played Twitter,
(01:10:20):
but they say that every year. I feel like I'm
in Alaska. They might not be talking about the light though,
fucking Twitter, man, it's this garbage. But yeah, I don't know.
I think I will say that it has taken me
longer to adjust, like usually, like by day four after
the switchover, I'm like, oh, yeah, this is it norm like,
oh ship, it's already. It feels way later. It's making,
(01:10:42):
it's making. It's hard. I've noticed that the duration for
me to get used to it is longer, not necessarily
that I feel like this is this year is different
from that. Maybe we're talking about the same time. I
think that's the same thing, because we normally just like
the clock ships and we're like, okay, this is a
new time. But right now it feels like I walk
outside this broad daylight at my keys, come back outside
and it's pitch black. Even at even a week later
(01:11:05):
from the daylight savings, my internal clock is still saying
it's an hour faster than actually, And I mean time
is still like not to get to last one on
one on on you. But like time is still an
arbitrary thing, like their decision to move it back an
hour is still like we're all working around you know.
So I'm sure there are some years when moving it
back an hour it does like get a little darker earlier.
(01:11:28):
In some years it's less. I think it's Yeah, I
also think that might be true that mercury is indeed
in retrograde um. The Daily Likes is a production of
