Thank you for having me, Thank you for being here.
I love I was wondering if like every single episode
there's an Iffle sixty five cover or charity song, in
which case, like if there isn't we should steal that
for a Night Call. Yeah, it's very easy structure, actually,
I think about it well, Like the verses are actually
easier if you're doing a song about a person, because

(02:15):
that's like where they're like blue Blue is House, Like
you could you could you could fit in more persons,
specific details there. You sound very inspired by that. Yeah, no,
I was thinking about it. It's like I I feel like, yeah,
the possibilities are endless. I mean, the lyrics are a
little they are very story like Yo, listen up, here's
a story about a little guy that lives in a

(02:37):
blue world. The story Yeah, three chords in the truth. Emily,
you are the co host of one of my favorite
podcast Nightcall. You are I think the last of the
co host Come on and yeah, be a guest on
the daily Zychs were thrilled. I only recently came back

(03:01):
to Los Angeles, so welcome back. Wellcome back my chance
to be in studio here. But I'm glad to have you.
I feel like I have a lot to live up
to too. Um I'm moving from New York. I've heard
of that. Yeah, overrated New York. I grew up in
Iowa and around Seattle as well. So people who are

(03:26):
going to accuse you of l A bias you know, fallback, Well,
I do have an l A bias um in general,
but I am also just I'm I'm a Midwestern and
West Coast person at heart, and and like lastly, like
distant distance, third it would be East Coast. I I
find I find it a little bit alien there in

(03:46):
in an interesting way. Sometimes. What's it like being Japanese
and Midwestern? Uh? It's great? Uh? You know you know
I talked about this on ethnically ambiguous, but you know
what the great unifier is corn? Oh on everything. Damn. See.
Maybe that's why I have an affinity for the Midwest too,

(04:07):
even though a coastal have Japanese person. Yeah yeah, I
mean the big problem is dairy. You know, that's the
big Like I wish I could drink a milkshake every
single day I have, Luckily, I I'm built for lactose,
like Japanese milk is my favorite drink, like when it's
like five. Oh my god. I've never I don't know
that I've even come on, jack, we call it milk,

(04:31):
called it whatever, don't call me half and half. I
feel like do people who are built for lactose? Don't
you still like get gassi and shipped from milk or
it's just you can drink it like it's water. I
don't know, I don't. I've never connected any kind of
physical discomfort with my consumption of any kind of dairy products.
Eat nothing like just without the chips, I'll just scrape

(04:52):
the molten cheese into my gullet. Ye see, I thought
the same thing. I was, like, you know, I loved
I love dairy I love cheese, love milkshakes and ice
cream then my favorite thing. And like, it's just like
a weird coincidence that I happened to feel like shit
and have to like, go right, it can't be this. Yeah,
it's not. It has nothing to do with drinking a
milkshake and eating onion rings every day, which is what

(05:14):
I did for my first couple of years in Los Angeles.
Also because the diners here are wonderful, so um. But yeah,
then I then I realized that, um, maybe I shouldn't. Yeah,
I mean I think for yeah, a lot a lot
of my Japanese friends can't eat dairy, A lot of
my Black family can't eat dairy. I don't know how
I've threaded the needle to just be like eating like this.

(05:34):
I grew up eating cereal every morning with with milk
on it. But starting your way to school, yeah, well,
I don't know if I was like I don't. I
don't remember having like I had stomach pains like any
other kid, you know. I was just in the fetal
position for the first few periods of school. But but no,

(05:55):
when I my wife is lactose intolerant, and she like
one we were married I stopped eating as much lactose,
and then I feel like I started noticing that it
sucks me up. I don't know if it was like,
if it's just that I cut down on it and
then it started sucking me up. If I just started
noticing that it was like that addicts mentality or something.

(06:15):
I think, because I'm taking less, it's actually making me worse. Yeah, exactly.
I just need to get right there. I need to
get right down. It wasn't always like this that until
I stopped doing it wasn't like this. But if I
tried to eat a bottle of cereal in the morning
with milk, it would ruin my day. You know that
Even the thought of that makes me, you know how
disgusting I am. Back in the day, man, uh my house,

(06:38):
my mom would drink with coffee, have like half and half.
There wasn't milk. Oh half on the granolade, Yeah, pure decade.
That sounds incredible. I mean that just like granola. It's
great because it strips all the sugar off the granola,
so then you're left with this austin. Yeah, oh my god,

(07:06):
don't do that. I don't I've only done that maybe
forty three times, but the half and half challenge tell
us what the best serial is with Uh, Emily, We're
going to get to know you a little bit better
in a moment first week to tell our listeners a
couple of things we're talking about. We're talking about the
Bernie the Warren feud slash contrast. I guess yeah, they're

(07:30):
at it yet a single policy disagreement that has caught
people's attention. We're gonna talk about the Trump slaughter meme
video that got played at his Dal resort over the weekend.
We're gonna talk about Facebook having all these coincidentally right
wing views and policies and outcomes of their policies. Uh,

(07:53):
and just ask the question, is this all a coincidence?
We are going to check in with the whistleblow we're
scandal and the ongoing impeachment. Asked the question Gordon Somlin dumb. Possibly, Yeah,
let's be very dumb. Yes. And then we're going to
get into some food stuff, playing food getting better and

(08:16):
more sustainable, Halloween candy, getting weed wheat wheatie, getting eat
weed infused, all that, and play any more tic TACs,
getting Coca Cola Yikes flavors? Do we need that, but
I don't know, so tik taks kind of funk with
how my teeth feel anyways, and coca cola always fun.

(08:38):
What do you mean they feel? It just doesn't like
gum or like there's certain gum that makes my teeth
feel like clean and other gum or mints that make
it feel like kind of gritty. And tic TACs are
not on the good set of we're just sugar. They
don't they're they're not sugar free, right, yeah, but it's

(08:58):
just it's weird. It's like, it's very interesting to think
about the mode in which you would want to have
the taste of coca cola. Because you can have a
diet coke if you don't want the calories. But for
someone who wants a dehydrated you want a little tiny
dehydrated crocat cola and your mouth to suck on and
my saliva will be the carbonated water. Yes, how they

(09:21):
market tested to find that that was like the thing, yeah,
the void that needed to be filled. But first, Emily,
we like to ask our guest, what is something from
your search history that's revealing bad who you are? Oh?
Oh oh, I have to bring this up because I
had to do a screen grab. There's a bunch, but
I mean you can take your pick. So um, okay,

(09:42):
So I was looking my great procrastination thing now, um,
when I am working, which is better than online shopping
or anything else, is just like looking up some new,
very obscure aspect of my natal chart. Uh, figuring out
what the deal is with it. So what's an obscure?

(10:04):
What's an example? So I have, um, it's called like
a focal planet, and it's apparently like a bad Maybe
it's not bad, Maybe I'm being too judgmental, but it's
like a certain kind of arrangement of planets on your chart.
And so I have I have Jupiter squared the Moon
and Pluto in my chart. Yeah, I know, I didn't
want to tell you guys say yeah, we should be

(10:30):
we should not be in a run with it right now. Well,
I had all the blood just rained from my face.
That's why I'm like, what does that sound right now? Well?
Did it start with you being into like the astrology,
then then going like but there's a deeper lay. Yeah,

(10:50):
It's like I keep going deeper and deeper, and I
think eventually I'm just going to get my chart done. Professionally,
but for right now, I just keep like finding new
things to look up because you can look up like
literally everything online. So did you know the moment of
your birth down to the minute? I know what, like
it to an hour or so. So that's what the
natal chart, like getting specific with the NATO charts, like

(11:12):
what exactly were the organization of the planets and right,
and like what houses everything with you? You have to
have that you have to have your birth. I'm in
order to know all that stuff. It's just and it's like,
I I think I just find it a good procrastination
thing because it's like I feel like I'll never get

(11:32):
to the bottom of it because I'll never fully understand it.
So it's just something I can like look at and
keep you know, doing searches of So that that was
the last thing that I looked up was my my
squarage and super And is there a time when like
everything will be arranged the same again? I don't think.

(11:52):
So it's called the age of Aquarius? Okay? Is that?
I don't know? You said that was such confidence. I
don't know. Well, there's this a Netflix German show called
Dark that has it's like a time travel thing where
everything happens in increments of thirty three years, because that's

(12:15):
the difference in like, I think it's some astrological thing
where like, well there's like your Saturn return as I
think every twenty eight or twenty nine years, and that's
always a thing. That's the thing that people make a
big deal about with astrology, and that's supposed to be
like a time of challenge, which also happens to coincide
with your late twenties, which is always going to be
like funky no matter what challenge when I'm twenty nine. Yeah,

(12:41):
I don't think. I think one of the things about
it is it's really hard to have the same chart twice.
But I did see something recently on an Instagram account
I follow about astrology that there are two people, two
famous people who have almost identical charts, and they are
indie musician St. Vincent and Lil Wayne. They have almost

(13:05):
identical charts. I guess they were like born the same
day or something. They were born the same interesting class
to think of. Yeah, that's funny. But if you don't
remember Jack from Hair. When the moon is in the
seventh house and Jupiter life Mars, then peace will Guide
the Planets and love will Steal the stars. This is

(13:27):
the dawning of the aquaries. Yeah, so we must be
in it. Then, now I think that was apparently not.
What is something you think is overrated? Okay? Okay, I
had to ask. I had to ask my husband what
this would be because I think so many things are
overrated that I was like, just give me something that
I complain about. Um, we kind of came up with

(13:48):
this one together, and I have the matching underrated one
as well. This preamble is that I've been seeing a
lot of movies again recently in Los Angeles, which I love,
and particularly arc Light. I feel a great deal nostalgia
and I don't know, I actually worked at arc Light
for a couple of weeks once. But I just think
it's a great movie going experience. But people that I
know in l A have been slagging a lot on

(14:09):
ArcLight recently. Um, I guess because it's expensive, which it is. Um,
I am personal if I'm gonna it's already like so
expensive to see a movie anyway, like a couple of
bucks more to not see a bunch of ads. I'm
like fine with, but um, but they just I won't
name a brand because I don't want to like specifically
naysay a brand, but there is a certain There are

(14:32):
many chains of theaters like boutiqui, chains of theaters I pick,
I think, Yeah, you know, I pick lifestyle. Has anybody
actually been to an I Pick? I did on a
date and I forgot my wallet? You know that those
theaters are basically just to qualify Netflix films for us. Yes, yeah,
that's but that's not how they started though. It was
like a terrible investment opportunity for people are like people

(14:54):
want eighteen dollar truffle fries that come cold to their
seat while they're watching Glorious. I didn't realize that how
food at an I Pick? That's so stupid, Like who
one who goes to I Pick? And then who sorry
I pick? But who goes to I Pick and who
orders fooded I pick? Yeah? I think that's for a
very specific bracket. Yeah, um, but I'm sorry, So you
don't want to slag off a specific print. Yes, but

(15:16):
the whole thing of like now you can go to
the movies and you can get queso and craft beer
and a whole pizza, um while you watch Joker whatever
it is Um, I actually, and that's like now a
value add and it's like, oh, like now that we'll
get the people to the theaters because they can have

(15:38):
they can have melted cheese like while they watched, or
like a salad, like a salmon salad, which is like fine,
but the food is never that good. And I just
think that like eating a meal in a theater in general,
and also like drinking in a theater is highly overrated.
It's distracting, it's very distracting. It makes the theater smell
like ass um like over time you've ever been in

(16:00):
like an older establishment that does this a lot. Um.
So I I've really been appreciated the pure unadulter rated
movie going experience at the arc Light recently. Um, that's
not my underrated. My underrated is actually like another thing
that I'm a very basic like. So that's what I
would consider like boutique movie going, like artisanal movie going,

(16:24):
like all these fancy things that like you can only
get at this one chain or whatever. Um, the underrated
thing is just like at any old regal or whatever.
Like having an icy during a movie is like the
best thing in the world. If you haven't had an
icy at a movie. And I know it's like the
end of summer now, so it's not really like summer
movie going season, but I do I try to make
time to see like at least two movies over the

(16:46):
summer where I have an Icy during them, Like I like,
I plan, I'm like, that's a movie for seen it
with an Icy. Um, while we're two most recent Icy movies. Um, well, actually,
well this isn't a summer I guess a summer movie
I did. I do remember that I saw the first
IT movie with an Icy and it was great. Um,

(17:08):
I don't really remember that much about I think I
was sick at the time too, but it felt. Um
I get the red one yeah? Or the white right
or white one? Um? They also do a Cola one
of that. Speaking of other mediums. For Cola, it's the
the proper one with the dog and the nit sweatshirt.

(17:28):
Nit sweater? Isn't that the Icy logo or a polar bear?
I see has the polar bear. What's the one that
has like the dog? Would like the like the black?
Is that slurpy? Maybe? Whatever? I'm getting all my slurpy
is the seven eleven one? I think that's yeah, I
don't know. Um, I haven't had a slurpee in a second. Um,

(17:51):
just like sugar soda in general. This is like very
bad and irresponsible of me to say, But I do
think it's like underrated because if you haven't had sugar
soda in yours like I usually have it, when you
have one, it's just like holy sh it, like legal yeah,
or yeah, like a real like like true sugar soda.

(18:12):
Oh my god, it's incredible. When I quit drinking alcohol,
I got back into sugar sodas and like for me,
it's probably worse up ginger. Yeah, all that ship mountain dew,
which I had to quit. Also, mountain dew is pretty brutal. Yeah,
I don't know if I could need to drink a

(18:32):
mountain dew in nine classes since you stopped drinking mountain
The cola icy is is actually pretty good. Yeah, it's
not that it just wouldn't be the first one I
would go for. Well, maybe slushy is the one with
the slush slush puppy slush no slushy slush puppy slush
slush puppy. Yeah, those are like the more icy ones.

(18:56):
The rest are like more kind of a slush I
don't know. I'm sure a blend of ice and uh liquid,
whereas slush puppies are it's like really finely crushed ice. Yeah. Yeah,
that's always kind of a bummer though, when you get
to the part where you've sucked all the syrup and
it's just ice. Slush puppies are basically snow cones, right yeah,

(19:17):
with more Well, I think so you're overrated. I was
just thinking the theaters are just trying to do too much,
and it's such a blatant cash crab because they're trying
to say, fund the dinner in a movie thing. It's
dinner in your movie now, and we'll take all of
that money. Thank you. In a in a seat that
will recline into a bed, so then you will fall
asleep after you ate your nine billion calorie dinner. And

(19:40):
just every time I'm in a theater like that, I'll
go to sleep. Yeah, And I like it at first,
it's like, oh, look at this, it goes all the
way back, and then I'm asleep. Yeah. There's some that
give out blankets like it was just like you, so
why would you want to blanket from a movie theater?
It's worse than a blanket on an air, like I'm
not used blankets spend any chance? Uh. And finally, what's

(20:03):
a myth? What's something people think it's true you know
to be false? Oh well, I mean this is something
we talked about on Night Call all the time. So
you guys are probably sick of hearing this if you
listen to our show. But the Instagram is not listening
to you or that like any like basically any app
on your phone isn't listening to you. And those ads
show up because they're like I was just talking about this, correctmaker.

(20:24):
It's so it's like it's people are telling themselves that
they're not listening to you. So you can continue to
justify using Instagram all the time. But it's fucking Occam's razor,
Like why would they give you a free app to
look at all your friends and catch up with like
your relatives and stuff and like post selfies. They don't

(20:44):
give a shit about yourselfies. They just want to know
where you're going and what you're doing and target advertising
to you. It's like, it's it's crazy how much like
that's still controversial, although I think more people are coming
over to the light side with this one. Well, and
I think people don't. They underestimate that, Like whenever you're
pretty much passively signed into Facebook, whether unite like it

(21:04):
or not, in your browser. So it's just taking every
anything that's a Facebook like logo on it, it's farming
it back into that. That's why I'm like, oh, right,
that's why the ads I'm being served are based on
something I just looked at in my browser, because that's
how they go. Yeah, yeah, the Facebook thing. Once, if
you were able to unplug from Facebook, which I did
a couple of years ago, that is like that actually

(21:28):
really lessens a lot of those uncanny things of like
why is this thing following me across the internet because
the Facebook thing being yeah, it's just every single site
will log you into Facebook that you go onto, and
so yeah, it's it's a good thing to to get
off of. But I know that a lot of people
like it's the only one. Again, we talked about this
on ethnically a vigorous It's like the only way that
you can keep in touch with people a lot of times.

(21:49):
So I I get that. I mean, the thing is
Facebook's all about connecting people can be wrong. The like
ads right now that are like pushing Facebook groups like
it's fucking two thousand nine or something like, um, like
find your people on Facebook. Yeah, like it's like message
boards or something like that. I don't know. I mean, yeah,

(22:09):
there are Facebook groups and they're all racists and like
organizing people to set fire to homeless encampments and stuff like.
That's um bringing people together, you know, bringing people together.
You know. I just started it as a way to
like rate chicks, you know, like I thought they were
who could have known it would have gone badly. First

(22:30):
I thought it would be funny to compare them to
farm animals, and then I thought, no, massive amounts of
snapple apple? Right? What was that photo that we were
looking at a like an article when Zuckerberg was first
featured in two thousand four and they showed his sad
dorm room and there's some obscure drink. I think it

(22:51):
was like something apple or something snapple apple pie that
and we're like it was like his desk in this
empty bottom. You're like, oh my god, of course this
is what we see. Okay, apple pie as a soda
I would do. I would not a Snapple though, Yeah,
Like it needs to be carbonated, it needs to be

(23:12):
like adjacent to a cream soda or something like a
cream soda with apple in it doesn't. Yeah, that's a
good flavor, kind of like a like a mulling like
a mulling cider. But carbonated cream flavor actually have come
around a little bit. But Snapples no, like not the
yeah not not made from the best stuff in the world.

(23:35):
Is this Snapple lady? Okay? Yeah, yeah, she's great, Like
what happened so quick yesterday, Wendy, she's great? Crushing it?
Is she a milkshake duck? Has she done anything horrible currently?
Post Snapple? Just did I love the nineties celebrity fick club?
And that's about it? Hell yeah? Um, the owner of

(23:57):
Swepts brand out, Okay, that's no. It said she was
on Fox and he's like, we want to explain something
that happened to her. Thank god you can. This is
the only way you can go on Fox News to
explain something that happened to you. All Right, we're gonna
take a quick break. We'll be right back, and we're back.

(24:26):
And there has been a policy disagreement between Bernie and
Elizabeth Warren. Um. This is news because they are the
two leading candidates besides Joe Biden. Yeah, and they're both
seen as progressives. Obviously, Bernie would never identify as a

(24:48):
capitalist like Elizabeth Warren has. She said, I'm a down
to my bones capitalists. I used to be a Republican
heck um yeah, And I think now you know she's
had um. She had her Accountable Capitalism Act, which was
sort of being like, how do we make capitalism work
for people? Most people would say argue that it might
not be able to work for people, but this is

(25:08):
a stab at it um. And then Bernie on Monday
announced the Corporate Accountability and Democracy Platform. And this is
a much more articulated step towards socialism than most of
the things we've seen in terms of like, you know,
they're they're similarities, right, Like with Warren's plan, she wanted

(25:28):
to uh like, sort of tax companies that are doing
a billion dollars in revenue a year UM and which
is cooler. But Sanders plan is having corporations with a
hundred million dollars or more in revenue UM and all
publicly traded companies basically transferred two percent of their stocks
per year until of the company is owned by the workers. Themselves.

(25:51):
So before, like Elizabeth Warren's plan didn't have anything like
this of that like transferring ownership to the workers. And
this this new Bernie plan is doing nicely that UM
and when you think about the amount of people that
would roughly affect around fifty six million people companies UM
and sort of this idea too, that that they would
actually own some of this stock, like they would begin

(26:14):
to make money, because I think what people don't realize
too is the way a lot of these like wealthier
people who work with these companies, they extract the wealth
through these stock options and by by putting those things
in the hands of the workers there now they have
a seat at the table. There's also similarities to where
they want utent of the board UM to be chosen

(26:35):
by the workers. Elizabeth Warren's plan was like a lot
of people who are you know, strict socialists would say
forty five isn't enough. It should be technically if you
want to have true ownership of the workers. But I
think a lot of people also look at this of like, well,
if you think, if you watch succession, you know that
having fortent control over something is a is a pretty

(26:56):
significant thing because a lot of the times ownerships fractured.
So to have a block of ownership that's like that
well or at least organized or rallied around a certain
point would help things. Um. But I think at the
very least it's a very it's it's a great step
to drive the conversation further left and to have people
begin actually talking about these things, because before it's like,

(27:16):
why don't we just tax the wealthy and like they
can stay wealthy. It's like what if like the people
who are creating the revenue of the wealth are also
cut into this scheme? So where do you get this
idea of Venezuela Soviet Russia? Where where where is this coming?
He goes to Venezuela once and he sees a bunch
of starving people. Whatever the Fox News, it's actually inspired
by corporate code determination in Germany, right, yeah, the determined,

(27:40):
very successful country economically. Yeah. Um. So again this is
where we're starting to see where Elizabeth Warren, who is
a capitalist, have those different policy points as Bernie Sanders,
who is a socialist, and we we will see what happens.
I mean, either way, I feel like both candidates make
the investment bankers and that class of people nervous. But

(28:03):
I think when you're hearing someone say no, this company
is actually going to be taken from you and put
into the worker's hands, I can only imagine the kind
of smear money that will be spent if Bernie were
to be picked. Yeah, do you think that that Elizabeth
Warren will eventually come around and try to, you know,
implement her own plan like that or something. I mean,
it feels like, yeah, I don't. I mean, she strikes

(28:25):
me as someone who's like, I see what's wrong with capitalism,
so if we just change these things, it will be
a little more equitable or some socialist aspects to capitalism
essentially capitalist. But I think maybe she's trying to thread
the needle of like I don't. I'll say capitalists still
because I need to slow boil the frogs on Wall
Street into realizing what's happening versus something like this, which

(28:48):
is like, what, over ten years, a company is a
hundred million dollars. I mean, at least Elizabeth Warren was
doing a billion like the bait like giant company. I
feel like I feel I mean, I think that I'm
the burning plant. Sounds amazing, it sounds great, but I
also feel like it's like the side effect of it
will be that it'll just scare people back to Elizabeth Warren,

(29:10):
which is also like not bad. No, Yeah, I guess
that's the thing. It's really down to whether or not
we if people think there's a version of capitalism that
can work in this country. Yeah, I don't think so.
It's more than just taxing people at this point. Yeah,
I mean we have it's it's runaway predatory capitalism, and
I don't know how you rein it in and you know,

(29:32):
a systemic change like going into socialism. I think that's
what a lot of people are having to find themselves
wrestling with because at the same time, it's like, what
why are you What's the point of defending billionaires? Right?
I think it's because a lot of a lot of
the times in our minds we think like, well that
could maybe, So I don't want to hurt them because
that can hurt me and my ends in the future. Meanwhile,

(29:53):
I am nowhere. You will not be a billionaire there.
There are things in is to make sure you're not
um unless you win Powerball and then do really good
with your investment. So that's definitely gonna happen. Everybody. Everybody
listening to this show right now, you will win Powerball.

(30:13):
Don't give up on your trains. Just listen to that song.
Oh my god, I was listening to I was this
is like a good drug store shot song. Who does
that song? High hopes? But like awful, oh panic at
oh yeah, but that song like I remember feeling like that.

(30:34):
This is like a fascist capitalist song. Like it's like
so like because I was just sitting in line, like
that's when you really have to pay attention to a song.
And I'm like, Jesus Christ, this is just convincing everybody
that they're gonna win Powerball one day. I'm being a millionaire.
This is poisonous. Sorry, let's dangle this thing in front
of you. Also an illusion, I mean, how to have
high living shooting for the stars. We're not going to

(30:58):
mega aga? Then did I have time? But I always
had a vision, always had hopes while I in the
CBS form. Then as I can't afford exactly trying to
pretend my Mercedes ain't afford wow me like yeah, just
I do like working people of parody songs. Okay, uh,

(31:23):
make a jay Z song about me now, maybe like
about how I'm cool, but work on a little bit
more than right now, good three minutes. Biden has never
written a song about how he's cool, so it would
be impossible. It's about how he's a capitalist. Actually, all
jay Z songs are I'm a capitalist. Come on, man,
knew this? Um yeah, I mean I think Sanders followers

(31:47):
concern is that literally every single time that a capitalist
has talked about you know, hope and change prior to
getting into the White House, the direction that they have
evolved once they got power was towards you know, the
interests of capital um. But you know, I guess the

(32:09):
rebuttal to that would be that Elizabeth Warren was the
main force behind uh that movement to you know, rein
in predatory capitalism. Uh. It's hard to know what how
anyone ends up when they pull up to Pennsylvania, that's right,
and what happens in there. Uh we do know though.
This is just in the top headline on Drudge Report

(32:33):
right now, is that Michael Bloomberg is now mulling entering
presidential race as Biden struggles. Uh so, I'm sorry what
that's going with the whole um Starbucks guy thing? Where
it's like we need a billionaire centrist. Yes, basically already
announced pre announced, like an exploratory committee, right. And I

(32:53):
think in Unison people are like, no, the subway. It's
like the same time. No, it was Bloomberg right not
to Blasio, Ye listen, I'm a New Yorker. He was also,
wasn't he flirting with it too? And I think that
was the refrain. I heard everything, But I think they're

(33:17):
both knowse for different reasons. To Blasio is like just
truly embarrassing figure right now? Um? Yeah, and and then
fixed the subways is the easy rally and cry around that.
But but Bloomberg, I mean, I don't even another billionaire
presidential candidate. I don't know. It's just I mean, I
don't really know how well he ran New York because

(33:38):
I didn't live there for his his like what how
many terms he had? Like four? Um, But I don't know.
I feel like it was sort of planning the seed
for a lot of the kind of like crazy real
estate speculation and pushing out like low income housing and
stuff like that that we have now, um and in

(34:00):
New York and all over the country anywhere, liter building
luxury apartments that no one could afford. Uh, did you
live in Bloomberg's New York? I did? Yeah? Take to
New York at a time when there's a duop group
on every corner. It was still there was a duop
group on every corner, singing around the trash campfire. And uh,

(34:20):
the people called the really clean drinkable tap water Rudy
juice because Rudy was still considered like having succeeded as
a mayor. Uh, and yeah, that those times are still
here because I'm a big Rudy fan. Is the water,

(34:42):
which is the objectively best part about living in New York?
Is that really Rudy Giuliani is doing, I don't think.
And also the idea also the crime drop that he
gets a lot of credit for. People have reported recently
that a lot of the was basically putting pressure on

(35:03):
police precincts to have their crime rate fall, and therefore
they became incredibly corrupt about not reporting a bunch of crimes,
just reclassifying crimes that were, you know, sexual assault as
misdemeanor something or other. Um. So yeah, uh so it
sounds like you're a no on boomer. For the record, Also,

(35:27):
if we are worried about predatory capitalism. I don't think
you can be a billionaire and be all good. Uh,
let's talk about the current billionaire. Want to be billionaire?
Maybe billionaire one time billionaire arguable. So there was a
conference over the weekend last weekend called the American Priority

(35:52):
Conference that was all about letting the world know what
the Trump administration's priorities were. I guess conservatives priorities were.
I mean, it was it was full wonderful gathering American
the amfest. I mean you had there are people like
Sarah Huckabee Sanders, do Ju, Dana Lash from the n

(36:14):
r A, Charlie Cook, denisht SUSA, I mean, you know
another you know, wonderful Q and on conspiracy theorists. It
was a truly a gathering of of Trump world. Funded
by a private prison company. Yeah, funded by the Geo Group,
who was the largest sponsor of this um and there
and their look to their credit, they're based in Florida. Okay,

(36:36):
that's maybe why they did it. Also, maybe a coincidence
that of their revenue comes from the Feds. Maybe a
coincidence that you know, they were doing really bad when
Obama was trying to move away from private prisons, and
then Trump came fully back to them. But they don't
need a lot of money. I mean they dubbed they
don't needed what two five thousand to a superpack during

(36:58):
the campaign, and then another quarter of a million to
the inaugural committee. So this is a way A lot
of people are like, what the heck is this? It's
really because the g O Group needed a way to
funnel more money into the Trump campaign by just being like, Hi,
we love you. We're gonna spend all this money at
DORL golf Club or Droll or whatever you wanna call it. Yeah,
and uh yeah, So it took place at a Trump resort.

(37:23):
Biggestner still becoming less popular because he's because the world
is sane generally. Um. But so a video was shown
there that basically depicted him slaughtering Obama Hillary Clinton. Didn't

(37:43):
name any like literally anyone who's been on the other side.
Rose O'donald, Rose O'donnald. And then when they're a little
boy who was mowing the lawn in the White House
that he was yelling at that slaughtered him. Yeah. Um,
but it's just a pretty gruesome Taken from a scene
in one of the King's Men movies, The First Kingsman,

(38:06):
The King The King's Man, in which Colin Firth notorious
bad that's the King's speech jack. Uh No, this is
how he learns by doing a bunch of gunkata and
killing like hundreds of people. I remember watching this movie

(38:30):
on a plane and being like, this is evil, Like
whatever is happening here? This is like really bad, Like
it was just a remitting, like murder fest. And so
they took that, you know, portion of the movie and
turned it into a work of propaganda where people could

(38:50):
like get charged up about Trump killing his opponents. Yeah,
it was showing in the Hall of Memes. Yeah, apparently
at this thing and a lot of people obviously, the
outrage was immediate when clips were coming out, and people like,
what the fund is? What is going on? Like if
we had known, we would never have shown such a thing.
It's pretty chill video, you gotta admit. So this is like, um,

(39:14):
I'm picturing like a kind of gallery hall where this
isn't like a gilded frame. Everybody's like and it's a
placard under underneath. In a weird way, there is like
this room where there were TVs on stands like in
the corner. So funny, and it was mostly empty. To
all the journalists that were in there, they're like, yeah,

(39:36):
this is like the Hall of memes, like a bunch
of like sixty year old like yeah, like private prison.
People were like, oh, we heard the ore younger constituents
or really into these things called memes. Can you show
it to on a television? I don't know how to
access it on the computer, Honey, can we get some

(40:00):
some TVs ordered in a picture of what looks like
an art gallery it's a ballroom, Yeah, like weird lighting. Um.
But yeah, apparently there was like a meme contest or whatever,
and there are some people who actually suspect uh. A
journalist on Twitter was saying that the video was posted

(40:20):
by an account that was quote connected to Russian intelligence.
But although at the same time, like when you look
at the people who make memes for Trump, like, I
don't know how much of a difference that makes, because right,
he has overlapping interests, um, But I mean the fact
that it's being used to stoke a base that just recently,

(40:43):
like within the last year, tried to bomb a bunch
of the people he Uh, murders in this video is
I don't know, it's just the sort of thing that
like when people say that there's a left left word
bias in media and like the monoculture. It's insane to
me because if this were the opposite, Like if somebody

(41:07):
had created hi name where Obama like murders a bunch
of people after Obama an Obama follower like tried to
bomb a bunch of people like that, the world would
end and they would look what happened. Yeah, you know
what I mean, Not that I think that was the
best move or whatever, but that was that response was
wild from the right, you know what I mean. Yet

(41:28):
here we are with this kind of ship. Kathy Griffin,
the comic who appeared on a magazine cover severed head.
The severed head that looked a little bit like the
president was meant to evoke the president obviously, uh, and
she is murdered in this video. She said she was, well, yeah,

(41:49):
and I think, like, hey, is this cool? Though? Is
this alright? Well? Because it's memes though, and I think
that's really the probably the intellectual defense they're deploying in
their own minds. That's a dude, I'm not like it's
just funny because like we like, do you guys remember
what was it called the chip job? Like from like

(42:11):
that was like early early viral content and I remember
seeing it was like dude looks like a lady but
it was like John Kerry and it was like like
a video making fun of him, I guess for Bush fans,
like where they made him look like a woman in it,
like very very petted. Yeah, like one, Yeah, it doesn't

(42:32):
make any sense at all, but um, but it's like
the exact same technology. It's just like a floating head
over a body. Um, and we really haven't advanced any
further at all. Well, pretty soon the deep fakes will,
That's what I was thinking. I was like, I still
like this is this is really like abysmal and terrible

(42:55):
to watch. But I'm glad that it's not the deep
fake version yet because that would be really bad. Well
that would be so much more graphic, I think. Yeah,
either way, I mean, when like you're saying, Jack were
already you know a lot of people are taking their
cues from memes or whatever. Uh, you know the president
whatever he says in terms of who his enemies are. Yeah,
the guy who sent all those bombs out and was

(43:17):
just a really bad bomb maker or else we'd be
talking about a completely different America. That is like basically
at a like at a boiling point of a civil war. Um.
That guy had like memes and ship plastered all over
his van, like you know, yeah, printouts from the Internet
and bumper stickers that talked about how he wanted to

(43:38):
kill the mainstream media. And you know, the fake news
was everywhere. So I mean, and also I mean you
look at all the violence that happens on the right. Yeah,
Like it's hard to say this isn't all part of
an active cycle that's continued to happen. Let's check in
with the impeachment inquiry and the whistleblower. So the ambassador

(44:01):
of the EU and the guy doing the heavy lifting
between Trump, Ukraine Giuliani uh, and the guy who in
the text was like, let's not do this over text message,
please call me, Uh. Gordon Sanlon h is going to
testify in front of Congress on Thursday, and we have

(44:23):
some leaked information as to what he's planning to say. Yeah,
I mean, I think just for people who don't remember
what was going on, there was this back and forth uh,
like over texts where Kurt Volker basically or not Kurt Volker,
Gordon Sanland came out with this really odd description defense

(44:46):
of what the president was doing. So the thing that
a lot of this testimony or what we think he's
going to talk about, is between him and Bill Taylor.
Where he's talking Bill Taylor, I think is from the
Defense Department, um or no, he's an ambassador. And when
they're talking about wait, I think Trump's holding eight withholding
aid from Ukraine. He actually articulates that. He said, as

(45:07):
I said on the phone to Gordon Solon, I think
it's crazy to withhold security assistance to help with the
political campaign. Then five hours passed and then Gordon Solon
text this, Bill, I believe you are incorrect about President
Trump's intentions. The President has been crystal clear, no quid
pro quos of any kind. The President is trying to
evaluate whether Ukraine is truly going to adopt the transparency
and reforms blah blah blah blah blah. So the reporting

(45:28):
is that he's going to Congress and saying yes that
text where I when the guy calls out what the
whole game is and I wait five hours to respond,
I texted that because the President told me to do
that and dictated it. That was like basically written by
the president or that text. Yeah, that the text measure
that that that was related to him directly in a
phone call. Uh. Then, but here's the here's the thing though. Here,

(45:51):
this is where he's gonna flip it on Congress. Okay,
he's gonna also plan to tell lawmakers he had no
knowledge of whether the President was telling him the truth
at that moment. Man quote, it's only true that the
President said it, not that it was the truth. Because
according to a source that's familiar with the logic with
his team, I'm sorry, it's only true that the President

(46:13):
said it, not that it was the truth. So then
he's so he it is a quid PRESI yeah, I
understand any circumstance, but the president lying for no purpose
to make himself well, I think what they're going to

(46:33):
try and do is say that it was a a
logical and righteous quid pro quel that it needed to
happen to write out. I don't know that's again. I
see everybody's confused as I say this out loud, But
this is apparently the thinking on this side because a
lot of people like, why doesn't he just not fucking cooperate,
Like the White House is already giving him the cover

(46:55):
at a stone wall. But I don't know if maybe
again we were speculating last week when we heard he
was gonna testify, like is this just to create the
optics of like I am going to tell the truth
and this is where you guys are getting it all wrong. Yeah,
the President said about we don't know if that's the truth, um,
and it's gonna be closed door or he might be
a lot of them have been closed door because Adam

(47:17):
Shift's logic around that is like by doing that, um,
the President can't find out what they were saying, so
he can't get ahead of the story in anyway. Matt
Gates actually was trying to get into the testimony of
his top eid on Russia today, um, and they kicked
him out because they're like, what the funk are you
doing here? You're like, not on any committee that has
anything to do with this, because they're like, you're just

(47:37):
gonna tell the president what's going on, Please go sir. Um.
So again, this guy Gordon Sanlon, he was working with
everybody involved on this. The Ukrainians Trump, Rudy Giuliani and
his whole thing is basically gonna He's gonna just claim
ignorance about the whole thing. He's gonna say. Quote this
is from the Watchington Post. Solon appears poised to say

(47:57):
that he and other diplomats did not know that the
request to mention Parisma was really an effort to impugne
the reputations of Biden and his son Hunter. So he contends.
Sudden contends that he didn't know about the Biden connection
until a whistleblower complaint and transcript surface in late September. Really,
the guys on the other ambassadors was very clear. It's
very clear to anyone who saw Rudy Giuliani on TV

(48:20):
talking about this ship, like what what is he going
to suggest that they talked about when he was like, hey,
stop saying that and call me like what what? How
did that conversation go if he had no idea that,
like there was any attempt to impugne I don't know.
It's so a lot of people are like, we don't
know what this is? What where is this is going? Yeah,

(48:42):
um yeah, probably here I would tell you this or
don't lie to Congress under Yeah, like if you have
you know, why don't you go do the Korey Lewandowski thing.
Ran I don't. I don't know where this ends up.
But they clearly have a plan that they're going to play,
did they because he's testifying against the president's which well,

(49:03):
but he is in a way, but it sounds like
that's going to be the pivot he's been. She's like, yeah,
we did, but here's a deal. We have to look
into this stuff. And then you'll be like, well, shouldn't
the d J investigate if there are Americans doing corrupt
acts or something? Oh, that's different though, right. I use
Bill Bard to like lean on Rupert Murdoch to get
Fox to fire Shepherd Smith or something. Yeah, that's what
happened about sheep Smith. All right, we're gonna take a

(49:26):
quick break. We'll be right back. And we're back. And
there were some wildfires over the weekend not too far
from where we live here in southern California. Ranch. Yeah,

(49:50):
that plays um and the way that the p G
and E what's that snap elec. The way they've chosen
to try to deal with the threat of wildfire. This
is a time when wildfires always kick up because there's
something called the Santa Ana winds that happens right now,

(50:12):
Santa and Santa Ana winds, And we had Santa Anna
winds and a full moon last night, and it's like
a recipe for disaster. But this is like, this is
something that I didn't I hadn't experienced until I moved
to l A like a a weather event where the
wind is so strong that people like have to like

(50:33):
slow down driving because it's just like it's like and
then act as a bellows from the furnace of wildfire. Yeah,
and like just things are falling, like branches are falling
out of trees and ship But anyways, that is a
big part of why wildfires will kick up, because power
lines will get down and then you know, because of
the wind, and then the wind will, like you said,

(50:56):
act as the bellows. So uh, Pacific Gas and Electric
came up with the idea to address you know, their
outdated electricity infrastructure and just like update all the equipment
and everything was cool. Yeah, that's great and thank god.
Another story about corporate responsibility. So, first of all, p

(51:18):
G n E is a fucking, terrible fucking company. There
there there are not a public utility company. They're privately owned,
their profit driven. They are behind some of the most
aggressive pushes against green energy in the state. As like
I used to work on a lot of green energy
initiatives like ballot propositions. P g n E was always
the largest donor against anything having to do with changing

(51:41):
our like our power mix in the state. UM. So,
anyway to give you a little idea of Pacific Gas
Electric UM And essentially they're so focused on profits that
they were basically convicted of like felonious negligence because their
lack of upkeep of their own infrastructure led to these
wildfires that caused damages to the tune of thirteen point

(52:02):
five billion dollars. So they did the honorable thing and
declared bankruptcy UM and they told the courts basically that
they said, look, we gotta do a lot. That's the
problem is, we will never do this again. It's like,
we gotta get these transformers changed, we gotta get trees trimmed,
we gotta get a lot of old equipment like changed
up our towers, things like that, and we're gonna do
that. That That way we don't get into a situation like

(52:24):
this cut to now they've only done maybe less than
one third of the things they told the court they
had to do for to like sort of make sure
this wasn't gonna happen again. So, you know, like their solution,
rather than risking one of their power lines going down, yep,
they said, we'll just fucking shut the ship down. And
it's mostly affecting people up north in the bay. Shut

(52:46):
down the power, shut down the power exactly. Becau's like, well,
if there's no power flowing through those lines, if they
go down, no fires. Um. And because those are the
only damages, they would be held accountable, not like people,
not the knock on effect for people who don't have
fucking power, you know what I mean, like people who
need electricity or food that spoils, or any kind of

(53:07):
medical support, equip whatever it is. They're like, oh, yeah,
luckily we can duct that if we just keep it
to the power stuff. Because if we have the power
on and the lines go down, then we're on the
hook again. Um. And they've just been doing a terrible job.
I think when they started it, they're like computers went down.
It's just been a fucking carnival, carnival of errors. So
the Saddle Ridge fire, the one that's been going on

(53:28):
over the weekend that was just I guess revealed to
have been caused by a spark from a power line.
Was that a pg N E power No, I don't
think that would have been pg N because they up.
I think that would still be the w P. I
don't know. So yeah, I mean I think in general, right,

(53:49):
this is an issue we have because that's the that's
a huge starter of fires. Um. But you know, it's
just a very clear but I think one thing we
can all agree on is Edison, from the beginning of
the company to today, has never done anything wrong. So
we're all on board with that. Oh yeah, we love
our conent. Again. I'm in New York. I have a

(54:14):
possibly stupid Devil's advocate points to bring up here, just
the best kind of devil's advocate position, which is, like,
if we are going to eventually be taking climate change
seriously and doing taking drastic measures to prevent some of
the more damaging effects of it, I feel like intermittent

(54:36):
power adages are probably like would be a part of that,
or like obviously there should be planning and exceptions made
for people who you know are on oxygen support or
something like that or or need you know, give them
a chance to get to Yeah. Yeah, like I mean
during you know, heat waves in prisons, that's probably not

(54:59):
one of the times that you would do our outage.
But if if you're if you're responsible person making these decisions.
But but I do feel like stuff like that, like
which is you know, to our eyes and in twenty nineteen,
like a pretty big and disruptive sacrifice is the kind
of thing that we should probably have to get used
to though for But it's but the intent of that

(55:20):
sacrifice is completely misplaced. So yeah, no, and I do
I do not trust their intentions or yeah, there's purely
to be like yeah, um yeah, well I think also too,
you think though this helps spur people on the idea
of other energy sources too. It's like, well what if
I if I'm have solar in certain areas, I'm not

(55:41):
relying on the grid to power my home. Because that's
a lot of the problem too with getting a lot
of the clean energy around is we have such an
old electric electrical grid that there are serious investments that
have to be make on that for for that kind
of power to be transmitted properly. But yeah, I think
that is you know, in general, like you think if
people were like, okay, uh, no power Tuesdays. But I

(56:02):
think at the end of the day, that's putting more
responsibility on us than the people who are at the
levels would be like, Rather than that, why don't we
heavily invest in this other thing and then we can
keep it moving. But yeah, yeah, Well, as much as
I'd like to continue discussing, uh, the only news story
we should care about the impending doom of our earth,

(56:23):
it's time we talk about the fact that people could
be putting weed in your kids Halloween can be happy Halloween.
The Johnstown Police Department in Pennsylvania are back at it again.
In my mind, I believe we've talked about this department
before when they were asking people to volunteer get drunk

(56:44):
for a study. But either way, just like viral stunts,
I don't know, could you have? That's probably where we're headed,
at least department doing viral content. I don't know what
they get out of it, but like the well, if
the social media the head of social media for their
police department is like gets promoted a few viral stunts

(57:04):
are like proposal. Videos can paper over a shooting. Yeah, like,
well what about that white what about the white cop
that you know hit them folks at that barbecue? You
know what I mean? The dance not literally hitting somebody,
the dance move. You've never seen an undercover mille rock. Yeah, hilarious.
And they kiss a dog, not that they just shot
a woman fucking in her own home in Fort Worth

(57:26):
through a fucking window. But upload that video of the
police party doing the Harlem shake, right, we forgot to
be fair. I do think that cops don't have problems
going viral right now, just not for the reasons they
would probably like, I mean, maybe that's the idea. Is
that there? Thank you? That's a straight up for you

(57:46):
the yeah, may I I could totally see the meeting
where they come up with that strategy of like, we
gotta combat all this negative social media publicity that we're
getting out there. Come on, pitch me ideas, guys. Cops
can be on. Yeah, could be fun. This cop was
a former break dancer. Would that people to remember that
we are out there protecting their children. What's the story

(58:09):
that we could tell about that? Oh what about that
child that was shot? Because they thought he had a gun.
Not that the Remember how we used to be afraid
that people would put razor blades in our candy? Yep, boom,
here we go. How would that even work? Okay, bite
into a candy bar? Well, because I think I think
you you pushed the razor blade into the flesh of

(58:32):
the apple, and then the caramel app the caramel covers
over the actual point. Also, just like candy bars with
my teeth the most impervious that my mouth bones right,
if you took a full on bite though, and there
was a razorblade and will cut your mouth, It's just

(58:52):
not the most efficient way to do harm. Via Halloween
king um this on This apparently is according to the
Johnstown Police Department. They have this whole Facebook posts says attention,
the Johnstown Police would like to draw extra attention to
the nerds rope edibles containing four milligrams of THHC are
so good. I know. Nerd ropes are one fucking movie candy.

(59:16):
Um foundering a search warrant in Stony Creek. It says, Okay,
during this Halloween, we urge parents to be ever vigilant
and checking their children's candy before allowing them to consume
those treats. Drug laced edibles are packaged like regular candy
and maybe hard to distinguish from real candy. Okay, now
it looks like maybe if you're just like the dude
who's making your own wild edibles, you sell them like
this to avoid detection from the police, not because you

(59:39):
have a scheme where you're throwing thousands of dollars away
to play a sick a prank from the kids of
this town. I want to bankrupt myself by getting a
bunch of six year old high money giveaway all of
the weed that I bought to sell kids to make
their Halloween extra spook. I mean, you should obviously check

(01:00:01):
your kids candy. I think that's that's all fair, But
I don't know if this is like they're like, what
where Kiva mints? Are those for kids? I mean, I'll
personally be giving away jewel pods at my house for
this trigger Yeah hell yeah, yeah, dude, I just want
to be cool with the kids. For me, it's to
be cool, you know what I mean. Hat some fortnight stuff,

But in the long run, it might be just as
bad as putting razor blades in an apple fiberglass. Truth campaign. Dang, yeah,
you're giving them a fucking dijarom clove cigarettes. Yeah do that? Wait?
What did those really like? What did those do? I
mean hadn't taste delicious? I remember. The myth was that

(01:00:45):
they like they were like fiberglass, because that's why they
hit so smooth. Dude. Oh yeah, that was like, that's
why they hit so smooth due because the fiberglass KHC
a strong edible. It's like a lot. That's yes, Danial
is headbanging and that is too much kids to one

(01:01:09):
day elementary school age. You know you're fially on Halloween
because it is like spooky. You do like maybe fifteen
twenty to go to sleep nice. I don't know if

that's all I'm doing. Uh? And is there a tweet
you've been enjoying? Oh? Yeah? So last night was the
Succession finale, which I understand myles is still not watched.

(01:04:31):
I'm sorry about that, Um truly sorry, had I had
to screen grab this. So this is like, so it's
always good to like when when there's a big TV
event and you scroll through and you see who's making
the funny jokes, right, And this isn't a funny joke
so much as it is just like a really well
written tweet that I appreciated so much. It was retweeted
by somebody else. I don't know who this person is

(01:04:52):
at all, but it earned a follow because I liked
it so much. And it's a thread, So I apologize
in advance. I stopped putting Kendall earlier this season when
he showed himself an unrepentant dad brother my heart of
I never thoughts, but when Jeremy Strong acted so hard,
bags bloomed under his eyes and hollows grew in his
temples like a fearful dark spring time and furling all

(01:05:12):
in his face. That wasn't makeup and tricky cameras. That
was real time, like when you unpack a mattress and
the air rushes into his expanding foam of memory. Anguish
filled his pores as Naomi ripped off his plastic seal
around his fragile self conceit and exposed it to the
pitiless sea air. So that's what you have to look

(01:05:32):
forward to on the succession for now. Oh, and that
I should give credit also this is like a person
it is at Queen of Bithynia, b I T h
Y and I A. I have no idea who this
person is, but all of their tweets are amazing, so yeah, awesome. Uh,

(01:05:52):
speaking of giving credit where it's due, my ak was
courtesy of Hannah Saultis and I forgot to say that earlier.
My bad. Thank you, Hannah Miles. Where can people find you?
You can find me follow me on Twitter and Instagram. Um,
there's one tweet I like. But there's a couple of
things that I was brought to my attention. First, Christi
Yamagucci Maine at ass Warfare. Uh, there was someone in

(01:06:15):
the subreddit we talked about, like, what the funk is
the point of a tandem bike. We're like, they're useless. Okay,
I've been corrected. Uh, they are clear. They can be
used very and for very beneficial purposes for people's disabilities.
So if you're blind, you can also ride the bike.
So I'll put the tandem bike bike aid on pause.
There is a reason, but there's still not good enough

(01:06:36):
for me that much. I just don't think they're like
when I see them, I'm like, what is this? Who
you're getting in the way. It looks very awkward when
the last time you saw tandem bike. Oh yeah, but yeah,
see I think that's where it's different. And I realized too, Like, okay,
so you know what that's We live and we learned,

(01:06:56):
and then we get loves. According to that diaper commercial.
Um now a tweet that I like comes from Reductress.
At Reductress, it looks like a guy who kind of
looks like Ben Shapiro contemplating it, says quote, I just
don't think a woman can beat Trump right now, says
man who is the reason for this? Yep about sums
it up. Also Wednesday, Oh that's tomorrow. Check this is

Real from and Ethnically Ambiguous was a video show. It's

(01:08:03):
a delight if you really want to get into the lore.
Uh soaring brought something to my attention, sorenbow Yet sort
In Limited Ltd. A tweet from Marlowe Stern which said,
signed photo of Brendan Fraser at this East Village bar
is the best and it's just a signed photo written
on it. I like the steak. It was my favorite part.

which is the fourth This is a bonus tweet. And
when like, I can't quote verbat him because I don't
