Oh yeah, okay, it's not to actually punch somebody. Good

You give me sixty minutes, I'll give you the world
of chaos. This is Blake wex everybody. Thank you so
much for having. Wow, yeah, where you're reporting to us from,
I feel like, with that journalistic Um series of a
K is, I feel like you were going to be
like this Blake Wexler coming to outside Windsor cast still dead,
as far as we can tell. The car carrying the
(04:10):
past it with the Queen. That's probably not okay thing
to say. Um, that's fine. Yeah, that's also I feel
like the flag that they had over her coffin looked
like a black light poster. I don't even see. You
didn't wake up at four in the morning and just observe,
just quiet, light a candle, keep all the other lights
(04:33):
off in your house and just watch. I did, but
it was seven am my time, so that's the only
reason why I was able to wake up to do
it before is asking a lot. Yeah, Oh, I thought
they had a Maryland state flag on it. It didn't. Marylands.
I was like, all right, okay, go terps Bach, Steve
Francie's Fan. Yeah, he went to Blair Um. They called
(04:58):
him the enterprise instead of franchise because it's Britain. I'm sorry,
who is that for? It's for the it's for that
group of very well educated terrapins and eastern rockets. Is
that we went right? Yeah, he went well. I think
he was drafted by the Grizzlies. Um, we're talking about,
(05:19):
of course, about point guard. Um, one of the great,
most most exciting effort ever engine league. Just like incredible vertical.
I think he was six one, but like he would
jump over people's heads just to shoot a three. Um. Yeah,
was a blast to watch in his early days, for sure. UH,
stevie franchise. Steve Francis, great nickname, great basketball nickname. But anyway,
(05:42):
for the record, she did not have a Maryland state
flag on her coffin, even though that's what I thought
from a far. Did we fact check that? Are We
sure about that? You know, I will do that. Actually,
you know, I don't want to go out there and
taking Christian. I am poor of the of a bunch Um. Well, Blake,
it's truly great to have you um, as always. Congratulations.
(06:04):
By the way, you are a married man. Is that?
Is that something that we talk about? Or Yeah, yeah,
I can talk. Yeah, I'M A managing manager. Like make
you keep it a secret because, like a K pop thing,
it's one of those things where we don't like talking
about my sex life because as an actor. It makes,
you know, my fans confused where it's like, if I
play a single guy, I might not be casted in
it because I'm just so associated with being a married man.
(06:27):
I think that's kind of always been my vibe, is
married man anyway. So there's really no shift, but thank you. Yeah,
it's been uh yeah, my my fiance, who was my
girlfriend before that, and a friend, uh yeah, and then
an acquaintance before that and a classmate, I believe, your classmate,
(06:48):
former classmate school, married a former stranger, former stranger, current
acquaintance and wife. Uh Yeah, I know. We got married
in Philly and late July and then we went to
Portugal for or honeymoon, which was amazing. So I'm a
big Porto fan now that that happened, and and it's
what a time to be a fan. They've they're on
(07:08):
fire right now. What the franchises burning to the ground.
But yeah, no, it's been it's been great. So, yeah,
we had amazing we went to the asors which, uh,
is one of the coolest places I've ever been in
my entire life. I don't know if you guys ever
been there and know anything about it, but that's that's
a recommendation where it wasn't too expensive either. It's an
island chain in the middle of the Atlantic. It's like
(07:30):
basically Hawaii, but it's just straight up in the is
it like why? In the sense that no fucking tourists
need to go there anymore. I guess delicate infrastructure. Is Madera,
one of the Azores. It is like a comp. If
you yeah, it's Um, I believe it's north. Yeah, but
(07:53):
it's a good island comp. If we're doing island comps,
there's Hawaii, is the Pacific version, and if we're doing
an Atlantic Ocean comp, but or yeah, it's in there,
but no, it's in there's direct flights from the United States,
from like Boston and new work. So yeah, it was
I don't need to get into the the economics of it.
It was a beautiful, romantic time and like more than
(08:13):
talking about that place, like you could leave from Newark
if you wanted. Well, what about there? He's like, well,
that's the thing I love about it. You could leave
from Newark, the most romantic airport. What does it look like?
They're yeah, it's like any recommendation to relate back to
Newark in one way or another. So I do appreciate
you doing that. Um. All right, before we get to
(08:34):
getting to know you a little bit better, we're gonna
tell our listeners a couple of things. We're talking about
very spooky ship at a trump Ohio rally over the weekend.
It seems like he's going full blasts, embracing the que
on on of it all. Um, a lot of these
like one finger salutes that, uh, I don't know, I
think we're fucked. Uh. So we'll talk about that. We'll
(08:55):
talk about King Charles the third, the new monarch of England,
and why? A chuck three, Chuck Three, Republic enemy. He's
a probably a big fan of that reference. and Uh yeah,
he's Um it's it's gonna be entertaining to watch him
(09:16):
hold down the throne because he's a he's a disaster,
my guy in the truest sense of the word. Um.
So those are those are kind of the main things
we're talking about. Plenty more. But first, Blake, we like
to ask our guest. What is something from your search history?
Weather today? Sometimes I like to know what the weather
(09:38):
is and no, Um, I actually looked up dry cleaning
rights recently. Like what is my rights of rights as
someone seeking my cleaning to be dried, and we could
have rearranged those words. But I they like messed up
a shirt of mine and this was never an issue
until I got older. Like I don't really get dry
(09:59):
cleaning us. I go to a wedding or whatever and yeah,
they just really they lost a shirt and messed up
another one and they have like a big sign hanging
up saying we are not responsible for anything that happens.
But I think the the burden of proof is like
they have to give reasonable care to your laundry. But
(10:22):
it's it's one of these things where I don't know who,
what happened? What happened? What happened? Well, it was a disaster.
My Guy, he brought something to the dry cleaner and
then what happened? What? What garment is now fucked? There
was a lot of makeup, I believe, on my what
if this ended up being clearly on like having an affair?
(10:43):
I'm like, there was a lot of makeup and on
my collar that they put on there, I don't know,
and scent of a strong perfume. No, but there was
like actual like just weird. I don't know if it
was makeup or just your makeup? Do you wear neck makeup?
(11:04):
Cover your vampire bite exactly, and it's aging at a
at a rapid rate, a rate ten times quicker than
the rest of my body. So I do apply a
very generous amount of makeup to my neck. There's a
lot on it right now. But Um, yeah, so there's
tons of makeup, like other Brown like we or maybe
it's hair dye or something. I don't know what it like.
I was just picturing Banni's head leaking right, right, right,
(11:27):
and it's that pigment, you know, that pigment that you
can get on a swatch when you're painting the walls
of your house, Giuliani drip, and so, yeah, I don't
know what to do. I don't like confrontations, so I'm
trying to figure out. Do I go in with a
plan with my I might sue them. Yeah, I might
bring Indocino into it, and it's a class action suit.
(11:52):
But yeah, that's the type of soup, by the way,
that I was wearing. It's a class action. Don't all
write me. I'm a guest. You know, I don't know
how to pivot off of that joke. I was mildly impressed.
For Hey, Blake, what's something you think is overrated? I'M
gonna go back to how I'm being treated. Um, I
think overrated stopping for food, like on a road trip
(12:16):
where I know a lot of people. Um, you know,
it's part of the journey. They like to bake in. Oh,
we'll stop in a R yeah, yeah, beautiful down, Beautiful Arby's,
like local color. Like, what are the Arby's like around here?
They do. There is a range from Arby's to Arby's,
(12:37):
of course. And but yeah, no, I I've tried to
do it and I can't enjoy it. Like stop it
like a cool roadside like diner or whatever, and it's
just never worth it. I'm just too stressed. I'd rather
just go to the destination that I'm trying yeah, it's
overrated because you're like, I prioritize just getting the funk
(12:57):
out of this car at my destination. Yeah, that like
because it's still hanging over your head the rest of
the trip and you you're going to a place for
a reason, probably because it's cool. So why not spend
more time in the cool place that you're trying to
get to? Then roll the dice at a place that's
near a highway. You know, I'm sure I'm like that too.
I will I don't, I will not stop the car
(13:20):
to eat. I will slow it down to go through
a drive through, but like sitting down, I get the
same thing. I mean like I'm like I don't, I
don't like driving long distances, so I want this to
be fucking done with. Um. Yeah, the one time I
remember being like on a group trip and we stopped
at the place like right outside where James Dean died,
and it was like to eat here and I was
(13:41):
like I don't give them about James Dean. Can we
get to Oakland please? Didn't cut out. Yeah, yeah, a
tree or something. It's it's like a town, a small town,
has sprung up where he died to be like the
James Dean economy. Yeah, just driving too fast. Yeah, it's
(14:03):
like right in the middle of the desert. It's crazy. Yeah,
it's just that it's just cool. I don't know. And
in that place I was actively being like like I
was just like, how's the food? I'm like, I don't know, man,
it's fine, like we get the funk out of here,
because I was just like I don't get by James Dean.
Can we get the funk out the car? Definitely, like
had a had an impressive array of Jerkys at that.
At that. Yeah, stop at the James Dean Death Branch
(14:26):
cafe or something. Yeah, Um, anyways, I I look forward
to it because it's like one of the few times
that I permit myself to have like fast food. Yeah, yeah, so, yeah,
and when when I see a Taco Bell like off
the side, I don't know, there's something exciting about it
(14:48):
for me. Uh, and then I have to stop every
fifteen minutes afterwards. Ship. So, Um, it was really inefficient.
S H I T. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, the kids.
What's up? What's the T A L O v E
R T T P l e t what some of
(15:09):
you think is underrated? Underrated gravel bikes, which, Um, is
a type of bike, in between bike. Yeah, the in
between bike. It's like more comfortable, because I was shopping
for a bicycle and I was trying to decide. I've
been like cycling a lot more and I wanted to
(15:30):
up my bike game. So I was looking at these
really expensive bikes and I'm like, I don't really know
if I can spend this type, because bikes are really expensive.
If I can spend this money on it. And basically,
what I was told is that for what I do,
like what fifty to sixties, seventy miles or a week
or whatever, like, it's good to have. Yeah, that's right,
(15:51):
and that's and yeah, where are you going to give
up your car? No, I'm sorry, I have I drive
it around on car. I got a bike for my
car and I put on my car and I drive
it around. Fifty seven. Do you keep the doometer on
so that like it just that you're riding that fast?
This so cool. I put on the Apple Watch, Um,
(16:17):
and so, basically, I what I learned is that a
gravel bike, especially now, because streets are just such awful
ship and you are so streets are gravel with big
holes in them. And essentially it has a larger, slightly
larger tire and it's a hybrid, so you can still
go fast on the road if you want to, like,
(16:37):
you know, if that's something you're into, but also when
you go to these bumpy, more hazardous terrain things, you
know like you are still comfortable, like you're not going
to be shaken out of your mind. So, yeah, if
you're looking for a bike and you're not trying to
like enter a major race, I I've really, really enjoyed it.
Gravel bike. It's a road bike you don't have to
trip about if you start seeing dirt in front of you,
(17:00):
and it's a mountain bike that won't feel super fucking
slow just on asphalt. Ye, perfectly put. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Uh.
And look shout at all the bikes that gang, because
I was. I was also I got a bike recently,
but I got electric bike just to kind of like
zip around like where I live so I don't have
to use my car. I was also looking at that thing.
My God, Damn, these bikes for so much fucking money.
(17:20):
But then at the end of the day you're like,
if I'M gonna put a lot of time on it,
then like you can kind of begin to rationalize, like
why a quality bike is that? Yeah, I'm not. I don't.
It will be a long time since I buy a
bike that is thousands of dollars. Is there anyway? Just
everything is expensive right now, like I I feel like
everyone everyone I talked to WHO's like in the market
(17:41):
for something like my car, leas is coming up and
I like went and met with a Volvo dealer and
they were like yeah, so you're looking at like it'll
be like to at least two times what you used
to pay for the current car for the past three years,
like at least two times. They're like yeah, it's just
the way the market is right now, is it? Well,
cars are right now, especially because of the tech supply
(18:04):
chain and stuff, but that's definitely taken it. Where are
we trusting that? I feel like we just gave everybody
the license. We were just like inflation, and then everyone
was like dope and raise their prices like three times
the I still go by the same thing where I'm
like if it's too much, I'm like no, no, no,
I'm doing that right. I'm good, I'm good. I went
to this one place where they were showing me a bike.
(18:24):
It was six thousand dollars and in my vanity I'm
like maybe these big legs of mine deserve at which
is not even it would financially ruin me at my
body like legs like those, Nah, you're gonna need one
of these six thousand dollar guys. And then I started
blushing and I lost my ability to see and that's
(18:45):
how that's how you get me. And and they have
like electric like the brakes were, the shifters were electrics,
so you don't have to press the shifter too hard.
And there's still a bike that you peddle much luxury,
which is crazy. It's a crazy luxury. And I went
to this place called a t x bikes in Austin
and they like found me a bike. He's like, you
(19:05):
don't need any of this ship, like just get this bike,
and I did. It just spike, like take those plumpers
coming out of your pelvis and put them on this
bike and I was like that's the most disgusting way
to speak I've heard. Oh Man, uh, let's see. And so,
(19:27):
all right, let's take a quick break, we'll come back.
We'll talk about the return of Q. and we're back.
And Yeah, I'm still reeling from we're gonna just push through. Um,
(19:49):
you guys have to bleep it out. It's like not
technically a first word, but more upsetting than anything like that.
I'm gonna text at like three hours after this recording,
like who the fund just says, like what? Anyways, um
about something less setting, which is the American dissolving into
(20:14):
a weird like death pult God and the Turd Reich,
and Reich has a q on the end of it
is upon us, y'all. I did not know what you
were going for their but Turd rich, I can read
it now. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, not the
TIRD Ari I Q. Yeah, is this a collab between
Ari i? Yeah, this is a co OP. It's a
(20:38):
cult co OP. But you know, he's slowly been embracing
the Q and on conspiracy theory like since like it
was clear, like as the election was coming around, he
started kind of being a little more like a little
bit at them. Um, you know, this is again for
those of you who maybe know like that q and
on is a conspiracy theory, but I don't know exactly
(20:58):
what they mean by it. It means that the storm
is coming, a k a trump, becomes God emperor their
words and will hold like military tribunals to punish pedophile
Demon Democrats like Biden, Obama, Hillary. You get the point. Susan, Right,
Oh God, could that's can we make that list of
(21:21):
other war criminals? Who knows? But he like he's gone
from sort of like first when people asked about q
and on and people in his campaign kind of being
like what was that like, truly not knowing what the
funk it was, to now full blown like fusion, like
the two are fusing together now, and things begin to
really ramp up since the morrow Lagal Raid Um, and
just like this summer, like is his, I think, legal
(21:43):
jeopardy became a little more vivid and he saw the group,
as you know, dedicated people enough to really become a
problem in physical space and obviously if they're properly inside it,
which he is looking to do and he's. First he
started reposting just sort of memes that espouse like q
talking points, and then him, like images with him wearing
a Cuban to like full blown videos with all this
(22:04):
ominus ship playing like this like really heavy music underneath,
which we'll get to in a second. But he went
to this rally in Ohio on Saturday to, you know,
presumably to help J D Vance, uh, you know, run,
but most of the time just talking shit about Jd Vance,
about him kissing his ass now and like all this
other nonsense. Um. But now it's the hill billy elergy
(22:26):
guy who was like a never trumper Republican, like one
of the Good Guy Republicans on MSNBC and CNN and
ship for the first half of the trump presidency and
then made a made a turn once it became effective, uh,
very fully for him to for him to be a trumper,
and now he's now he's a big trump boy. Yeah,
(22:48):
and the rally itself, just sonically, I mean this is
the rally where, I'm sure you saw the headlines where
all these people were doing like a half cocked tile Hitler,
but like we're number one, like arm pose while on
push speaking very awesome vibes and silently holding up a
finger in the air towards M it is really eerie
(23:09):
looking ship like. It is really dark times. As as
someone who goes on stage for a living, if my
audience started doing that while I was on stage, like
I should probably change what I'm doing. You know what
I mean? Like any that is such a disconcerting any
gesture in that way, especially one that's reminiscent of a
Nazi salute, it is just the most horrifying thing that
(23:30):
you can in silence too, is almost worse than it's
even hard to watch, like Notre Dame when they win
a game and they do the Alma Mater at the
end and they're like they all hold their figures out. uh,
someone who went to a school that did that. I
was like, okay, but the rally fucking kicked off before
trump came out. This is the like son. They were
(23:51):
like trying to make this the weirdest fucking rally of
them all. I'm gonna play some of you. I'm not
gonna say what this music is. I'm just gonna let
you hear it, because some of you may know this
song well enough that it will freak you out. But
this is the music that played before Donald Trump comes
out at the rally. What the Blake? You know that song?
(24:18):
I believe that was before he switched to alymp biscuit song. Uh,
that was the undertaker's walking, walking up W W E theme.
So that's the fucking that's actually makes it way Lessieri,
but still like. It's just weird, though, because it's just like,
(24:41):
because I think it's for someone who doesn't know music
at all. So the most you'll do is like, dude, oh,
the undertaker theme. That's booking creepy, like you don't know
like Carl or for like other maybe classical composers. He
might have given you a freaky demon vibe. But anyway,
he comes out. He starts doing the usual ship. He's saying,
(25:02):
you know, immigrants are monsters, drug dealers should be like
summarily executed. I finished the border wall for real. Uh.
And then he got to the last part of his speech,
and this time he was like the thrust of the
speech was what he did, like in and like at
his inauguration, where he's like America's like the streets are
filled with blood and like it's all fucking creepy. Get Out. Um,
(25:25):
and he's playing a very dramatic piece of music. So
this is trump giving his speech about how dark and
twisted America is, with a score that comes in and
I'll just let you listen to how fucking weird this
whole ship sounds. But now we are a nation in decline,
(25:51):
we are a failing nation. We are a nation that
has the highest inflation in fifty years and of the
stock market finished the worst first half of the year
since eighteen seventy two. I remember that. Um, he goes on. Dude,
this speech went on on. Here's another part. Just keeps
(26:13):
going with this. Music is not being added. We're a
nation that no longer has a free press. How about
this one? Keeps Ping them off. We will not bend,
we will not break, we will not yield, we will
never give in, we will never give up, we will never, ever, ever,
(26:33):
ever back down. Anyway, while this has happened, that there
was another ever in there, but exactly four ever. Come on,
five ever girls, five ever. Um, the whole crowd. You
saw people just doing this, putting up one hand with
their index finger out, while he was speaking, and I was,
like all the like journalists that were there, like there's
(26:53):
some weird ship going on in here right now, like
people are like suddenly putting their fingers in the air. Uh,
and a lot of people like a people who are
pretty up on q and on ship. They started looking
at how a lot of the Q influence, influencers, started
talking and a lot of them started pointing there like,
Oh my God, this is that track W W G,
one W G A, like where we go, one we
(27:14):
go all, which is their model, like their mantra as
a fucking conspiracy theory, and this is like this track
that's really well known. I Gat for q people and
they were like, Oh my God, where he's he's playing
the fucking theme music, like while he's giving this speech,
and the guy the main like that one q influencer
who's behind our favorite JFK, will return a conspiracy theory
(27:36):
where he saw Michael Jackson on drum at that rolling
stones concert. Rolling Stones are also actually dead. You know,
he was there and he was at the rally and
he said quote. During the song, we had a powerful
moment where our group held up one finger, a call
for unity, acknowledging, acknowledgement of our one God. Where we
(27:57):
go one, we go all and more. It was magical
and completely planned, as many of the in the crowd
joined us in the gesture, a gesture to say this
to this beautiful man where with you. His people are
saying we didn't play that track. It's actually another track
called mirrors, but some, like musicologists and like other people,
like side by side, played the tracks and they're they're
(28:18):
the identical. So they're kind of using that like women like, well,
it's not that one, but if you listen to you
like that's the same fuck it like, quite literally, is
the same track, just with a different name. It was
a song that was called mirrors that, like q and on,
took and put on like a q and on mixtape. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
and God and renamed it to be just you know,
(28:41):
they have no use for truth or like what you know,
so they were just like, yeah, this is actually our
song that we we wrote, put it on a mixtape
and it is now known as where we go, when
we go, we go all among everybody who believes in Q,
and obviously that is the intended effect of of this trump. Trump.
(29:01):
Playing it, I mean playing any music over the end
of the speech is very strange, unless it's quite literally
the last sentence of it and it's like d like
you're trying to go out on something, maybe, but like
to be like I'm gonna make a movie. Happen Right
now is but you know what has the intended effect, clearly,
(29:23):
because now many people are like buzzing about this like
sort of open faced embrace of this conspiracy theory and
what it all means. And it couldn't happen at a
fucking worse time like in the last two weeks we've
seen all kinds of q related violence from people who
are huge believers in the conspiracy theory, where, you know,
from murder to making threats with firearms. What was the
(29:44):
somebody like killed their family or something because you have
que beliefs. Yeah, like that was sort of the end
point with their just obsession with the conspiracy theory. Yeah,
it's really scary. It's I mean he's fantasized on multiple
occasions about having Nazi like en rolls and supporters who,
you know, give him the attention that Hitler commanded when
(30:06):
he would speak. So like this just seems like it
plays directly into the path that he's always wanted to
be on. Like, I saw a headline somewhere over the
weekend there was saying something to the effect of a
second trump administration would be more of the same, but worse.
And I really think we're failing to understand like he
(30:29):
he has given up on any any idea that like
he's not he's going to be anything but a military dictator. If,
if he wins office again, it's going to be straight
up behaving like a dictator from the very start. That's
it's it's not going to look like his first term,
nor is it gonna look like any other term in
the history of US presidencies. If if he's actually elective. Yeah,
(30:53):
it's yeah, I mean the first president was the one
that his first administration was one and he'd be like, Oh,
I can't do that right, and the second time he's
gonna be like I know why and let me just
burn push right through that, because that's, you know, the
first time I sucked up by not just completely burning
it down. Gravel Bikes, those are core r yeah, they
(31:14):
will be in the I mean pretty good for the
apocalypse too. You may just want to go to that
may be wishful thinking if you would only need a
gravel bike in the coming apocalypse. But yeah, just more
desperation from trump and I think as everything gets more
vivid for him in terms of what his like legal
(31:34):
liability is, it's only going to get more and more
bizarre and fucking creepy and undertaker ship, because it clearly
resonates like, I mean, these people are really they're like
Holy Shit, like Oh, he knows. I mean the hope
is that this is a bridge too far for most people, Um,
and that like because of his unique brand of pathological,
(32:01):
like almost debilitating narcissism, rual death cult and you know,
all all these things coming together will lead people to
be like, okay, you have convinced of the country that
like this is the way forward. Unfortunately, that is not
not enough to win the presidency. On the other hand,
(32:22):
they have a massive propaganda like engine that is going
to be fully churning out misinformation from now until the
day that he runs for president, which is happening. Uh
Ron de Santis. I feel like people are almost hoping
at this point that he's going to come through. But
(32:43):
Ron de Santis, first of all, is also horrifying, but
also I don't think it's going to be able to
beat trump and a republican primary. That popularity contest is
going to be. I mean, who knows? That people gift.
They really think. They want to step to them and
see if they can what ends up happening there. But yeah, yeah,
either way, I mean like to pick your take your pick.
(33:04):
They're all pretty much trying to go full speed into
the same sort of nightmare scenario where it's like, man,
people that matter even fucking less, just so you know. Yeah,
and maybe it'll get worse before it comes to an
election because, like you said, there's like what they believe
at their core is that, you know, this is a
(33:26):
war that they're involved in, and a ton of just
wild shit about everybody who's not a que believer or
just or even not Christian. I mean the same way
Lauren Boeboerd is out here saying stuff like all the
Christians need to know, like we're like we have a
mission on a mission from God, and not in the
Blues Brothers Way, like they're trying to fucking believe that
(33:48):
they are supposed to inherit this country and lead it
into this, you know, theocracy. So you know, keep your
eye out, keep your eye out. Oh, one of the
things that guy who wrote that album the Q, and
on mixtape it was called silver cloud five, which I'm
sure probably has to do with like pem trails or
some weird ship. But there are two tracks on there
that were the name of this one. These tracks, one
(34:13):
was called Q. Send Me Que, send me darling. You
Q Darling, okay, and the other there was another one
called ANTIFA. assholes. There you go. Anyway, don't buy them,
don't don't give this person any money. No, no, no,
pirate that ship if you want to hear it. I
mean those spotify residuals are so much money that we
(34:35):
don't want to fund them with their point zero two cents.
But yeah, I do wonder too. It's almost like sad
fanboys ship where them saying the q people saying like,
Oh my God, trump knows, he knows, he doesn't know
who you are. He's susceptible to flattery and his handlers
and his campaign know how to capitalize off the q movement.
(34:58):
Trump himself see people in trump jerseys, you know, like
he's like, Oh, they like me, they like what I'm doing,
but doesn't really understand. I would imagine more than that.
But it's his machine that knows how to Ye and
we've talked about just how all the time. Like the
policy is like when they need more voter like energy,
you just turn the heat up hotter on the grossest
(35:20):
takes you got and just just still just cook that
down into the grossest fucking people where. Now it's like
I gotta energize the xenophobes, the fucking homophobes, the people
who like forced birth, conspiracy, theorists, and then I'm like,
I don't even know what the wrungs lower than that
are going to be, like Nazi flat earthers or whatever,
like it's just gonna be, you know, to continue to
(35:42):
try and Eke out more support from these people. While
completely ignoring, like what you know, most people here. I'll
tell you he's not going to get the gravel bike users. Okay,
as a group we're not gonna hop on that. Man.
I've seen those outdoor biking trails communities. I feel like
I've seen some cut, some jam band and is mixed
(36:06):
in there. What am I promoting? All right, let's take
a quick break. We'll come back and we will talk,
we will laugh and point in another country. Um, finally,
(36:31):
and we're back. and Um. So the queen's funeral obviously
happened over the past like two weeks. Yeah, just ongoing. Um,
the the amount the outpouring in the street was, I think,
surprising to a lot of people, just how many people
(36:52):
were willing to wait to watch the coffin and go by,
Um and just to get get a glimpse throw flowers
in the general direction. Um. And so one piece of
context that I had somewhat missed amid the massive propaganda
push is that they believe they are in trouble, the
(37:15):
royal family as an institution. For literal decades they've been like,
what are we gonna do when she dies? Her son
is like a walking piece of anti monarchy, propaganda. You
can't spell the whole word, but the clip of him
(37:38):
almost dissolving into tears over a fountain pen leaking and
then saying I can't bear this bloody thing. What they
do every stinking time. Um, referring to pens, I guess. Yeah,
I've never related to someone more in my entire life
to him in that moment. There's just certain products that suck,
you know, like what do you like? Switch to a feather.
What they do every geting time. I tip there. This
(38:04):
bloody thing is so dramatic. Um gets a real decision making.
My man, exactly. This was the things we see in
this twenty second clip. Put It, I think it's an
instant classic and it's kind of on the level of
funk it. We'll do it live, the Bill O'Reilly Um,
(38:26):
you know, where he gets really frustrated, but it's like
not clear, but like he's he's just venting about something,
something that he's fucking up. Um. In this case, we
opened the clip with him saying what is it? September,
and his wife saying two days off. My Guy, it's
actually also you signed the twelfth earlier, dumb, dumb Um,
(38:52):
and your your whole job is just to like sit
there and sign official documents. That's your that's your whole job,
and you immediately like got just the pen exploded on
your hand. He like storms off in a huff saying
he can't bear the bloody thing, and then I guess
(39:13):
she has to like stinking, stinking time. So there was
this review in the New York or which I read, uh,
because I'm very cultured about it was a book. They
were reviewing, a book by a royalist, so somebody who
(39:35):
like is really into the institution, and it is just
exhibits a through Z of why the monarchy is bad
for society and for like the modern world, but especially
for the development of this human being in particular Um.
But I think for the purposes of like entertainment and
(39:58):
a like documentary satire of privilege and inequality and conservative values,
he is going to be like a Truman show esque
creation that has just been like perfectly marinated to undermine
everything about this institution. So the book starts out with
(40:20):
this author dealing with the fact that everybody in England
is like Charles should just bypass it and give it
to his son, because his son is charming and Charles is.
We don't like him. We don't really don't like Charles
and this writer's whole point is like that would be
(40:42):
democracy and that is the exact opposite of what they
claim to stand for. Like, when you think about like
their whole thing is that like the opposite of democracy.
And so if they did that because the son is
more likable, that completely subverts the whole thing. But because
(41:04):
he's so unlikable in such a disaster that he can't
sign a paper without having a Temperat, I think they're
going to like shotgun wedding him onto the throne. Like
Queen Elizabeth. There was an eighteen month morning period before
she took the royal whatever's. But he's gonna I think
(41:24):
they're planning to just really shotgun him, wedding him onto
the throne as g as quickly as possible. Wait, for
what purpose? So so that people don't get any ideas. Basically, oh,
because in that vacuum like in between you and be
like well, what if and they're like no, no, no, motherfucker,
he's a king, he's a king. Yeah, Oh right, because
I've seen the thing about like a few takes of
like he should abdicate because this dude has wasted the
(41:47):
prime years of his life waiting for his mom to die.
And then where it's just like it's going to be
a Gerontocracy, where it's just these older people are like
in power, while they're people who have like ideas that
are relevant to most of the people that are on
earth that might be able to kind of have a
different take. But like the low point of popularity of
the monarchy was Diana's death. And so again, like they
(42:11):
kind of skip over it in the review of this book,
but like that was squarely because they had made the
monarchy a Diana versus Charles thing and like people just
don't like this guy. He is. So I just want
to read some of these quotes from like a summary
of a book that is supposedly Pro Charles and pro
(42:33):
the monarchy. UH quote. He is a preening SNOB, keenly
sensitive to violations of protocol, intolerant of opinions contrary to
his own and horribly misled about the extent of his
own talents. And then this is. This is uh, this
is a parenthetical aside. An amateur water colorist, he once
offered Lucian Freud known as one of the foremost twentieth
(42:57):
century English portraits, one of his paintings, one of Charles's paintings,
in exchange for one of Freud. Oh ship. He was like, yeah,
what do you think? We're basically same level. Um for
for that one, the one that they say is like
your masterpiece, because this is like mine too. So, Oh,
(43:19):
what is it? It's a sun in a cloud against
a white sky. And those lines, yeah, those are some
the sun, the sunbeams, and then those lines, yeah, those
are stink lines coming off from that that Hobo on
the ground. stinkers. No meaner phrase than an amateur water colorist.
Like that's the meanest thing I've ever heard someone say
(43:41):
about another person's terrible that's what you say. Like yeah,
I've in preschool when you do watercolor for the first time,
like in my amateur water water colorists. I said water color,
like I'm from. You're hanging with two philly guys over colors.
Thank you. Freeze it and it becomes water ice. Um.
(44:02):
He reportedly travels with a white leather toilet seat and
Um travel travels with I'm sure he doesn't have to
touch that ship, but he has. He probably has somebody
who is fully like employed just to be the keeper
(44:24):
of the Royal White Leather Toilet seat so that he
never has to touch a toilet seat touched by any
other ass in the history of his life. This book, again,
that is a royalist portrait of Prince Charles, details his
outrage on the rare occasions when he has to fly
first class rather than in a private jet, and she
(44:46):
writes about it as like the prince's paradoxes. But it's
part oh Mike Bending up able, meanwhile being like he's
a preening snob with paper thin skin, this asshole, but
he's an enmorous really, um. What is a white leather
(45:07):
I'm okay, I remember back in the eighties there used
to be those white cushiony plastic toilet seats. Remember those?
Oh yeah, they were like I feel like those were
always at the homes of people who were in their
seventies and yes, my grandparents had when I hated it,
I was like this ship feels like a Shitty beach ball,
like what the funk is this? And I'm just thinking
(45:27):
of like how even then I was like I'd rather
sit on a normal hard toilet seat. I'm good with that?
We don't we. We did fine with I don't need
cushions or leather bound ship. I can't imagine what the
like really is that in his mind it's like it
has to be this cushion and white leather. He takes
himself so seriously, like that's what he he like deeply,
(45:50):
fully thoroughly believes that he is like a misunderstood genius
thought leader and like that's the least that he boo
could do is allow him to always fly private and
never have to have his ass touch where another as plastic.
Do you think? Oh, what if he's just like, I
(46:11):
can't interact with plastic? Right, then he does, because he's
also like one of those Um he's always talking about yeah,
stuff like he's like stuff that is true, like about
integrative medicine and stuff like that. He refers to himself
as a quote healer and would would probably operate on
(46:34):
you if you let him, because like that's what the
sort of ship that he believes. So this is again
reading direct quotes from this review. Sent thousands of letters
to government ministers, known as the black spider memos, for
the urgent scroll of his handwriting on matters ranging from
school meals an alternative medicine, to the brand of helicopters
(46:57):
used by British soldiers in IRA and the plate of
the Patagonian toothfish. He's giving countless speeches to British businessmen
on their poor business practices, to educators on the folly
of Omitting Shakespeare from the National Curriculum, to architects on
the horrid nous of the tall modern building and so on.
(47:18):
So he just gets in there and speaks to experts
about like how what they do sucks. Please come on
this podcast. I'm looking at a Patagonian toothpish right now
and it's polite is that it is an ugly sucker.
That's a plight. That thing is ugly as hell. By
the way, I was looking up I was trying to
try to like figure out where I had heard the
phrase I can't bear this bloody thing, what they do
(47:41):
every stinking time, and I think I've yelled that in
my car while trying to park at a trader Joe's.
I think every single time I go to a trader
Joe's I've yelled that in my car, like why don't
they have more parking? Yeah, this bloody thing. I can't
bear this bloody thing they do. I have come to realize,
he told an audience in two thou two, that my
entire life has been so far motivated by a desire
(48:03):
to heal, heal the dismembered landscape and the poisoned soul,
the cruel ty shattered townscape, where harmony has been replaced
by a cacophony, to heal the divisions between intuitive and
rational thought, between mind and body and soul, so that
the temple of our humanity can once again be lit
by a sacred flame Um. And everyone's like boo, fuck you,
(48:26):
like of people like so. We saw how people in
England treated the throne when, you know, the Queen died.
They all were out in the streets yesterday just watching
a car drive by with her body and just overcome
with grief, like don't even want this motherfucker to like
(48:49):
be the king. They're like Nah, like we're we love
the monarchy, but like not, not when it comes to you.
They're they're like ready to anyone, literally, anyone but him,
anyone else, like the British police have reacted to criticism
by arresting people when someone said, like who elected him?
So it might not all be like funny. It's probably
going to be the society coming together to fend off
(49:13):
any criticisms of this dipshit like as as much as possible. Yeah,
when those people are getting arrested, I think a lot
of those laws were born out of like hate speech.
So what happened? It's like a lot of the like.
We talked about this all the time in the US,
like free speech and things like. What the slippery slope
is when you begin to like actually say like, Oh yeah,
you can get arrested for that, because on the other
(49:34):
side of that coin you can be someone with a
blank sign outside of Buckingham Palace and they'll arrest you because, like,
they arrested a guy, they said, because he may have
written something offensive on it. And Yeah, it's a man
just seeing so many, so many things happen at once
is uh, I don't know, I don't know. I'm just glad.
(49:54):
I'm just glad we have our perfect system here. Yeah,
thank God. Yeah, do you think it's also like do
you think he's just so like monarch brained, like, because
you hear about how, like, you know, like me growing up,
it's like saying, like your grandpa used to have a
barbecue restaurant and then his daddy also used to smoke
meats in the south. And I'm like, okay, like I
(50:17):
kind of an idea, like that's why I like to cook.
I like barbecue ship like that. But like they're coming
with like four centuries, boy, your blood has ruled the
land and like you turn into this fucking guy who's
like telling like, Hey, scientists, this is what you need
to do about cold fusion. Hey, helicopter pilots, have you
tried these micro machines? They look pretty cool in the commercials.
(50:38):
What else? What other fucking ideas have I got? Because
I'm a healer, because this is a divine right I have. Yeah,
he truly probably thinks he like is half God, which
is appropriate for for America. We got the same thing
going on, I meaning, hell, you're fucking fingers first, Bro,
and then we can talk. He also just like in
the context of his critiques of modern an architecture, they
(51:01):
gave him like a town. They were like, Hey, why
don't you build a town that you can come on, hey,
why don't you build it down Charles Street? Ark over
there and build a town. Yeah, okay, it's basically it's
called poundberry Um and it is basically a few feudal detailand.
He was adamant that would not be another soulless housing estate.
(51:22):
But everyone's like it's weird, like he has like these
curvy streets, but the curves in the road like aren't
for anything other than just him doodling. I guess like
the way the roads are looked is because it's like
having a big piece of blank papers in front of
it in the road. Yeah, exactly like that. It's not.
(51:45):
It's not on a grid system. It's just random roads,
just vibes, just king vibes, King Major Poundbury vibes. But
then you know, in addition to thinking that he like
deserves this, his perspective so limited that like the grandest
buildings in this town are not schools or libraries but
(52:05):
luxury apartment complexes, because that's like that he has ever experienced.
There are strict rules about altering homes, so much so
that a few years ago, homes were being inspected with
cameras to make sure no one was altering them without approval.
Solar panels aren't allowed if they're visible, because the environment.
He wants it to look like an old timey thing.
(52:25):
One woman even claimed she was evicted because she had
too many plants outside her house. Um, yeah, that's so scary.
People lived there. Like in my mind it was just
kind of an empty plot of land that nobody was using,
but the fact that there were actual citizens, yeah, in
his weird town and the people who lived there like yeah,
(52:49):
I mean you'd think these would be good buildings because
they have like do you do you know how much money?
Like the Royal Family has four hundred sixty million dollars liquid,
but I think they own, like when you look at
all their holdings and all like the value of all
the different things that they own, it's like seventy seven
(53:10):
billion dollars that he just inherited. And these buildings that
he built they leak, like they don't like they're just
it's like if you gave a kid with no training
like like not nothing works and the whole things. That's
just complete disaster. There's a monument in the big central
hub of the town, is called Queen Mother Square, which
(53:33):
with the statue of his Grandmama, and it's just generally
a tribute to British imperialism. Streets are named after battles
fought in Iraq and India. Yeah, Whoa, yeah, yeah, Chuck Baby,
Chucky Valley. MM. He was going to call it pound town.
(53:53):
I don't I don't know why I'm still here. It
is funny the towns that pound town Um. Pound town
is the American equivalent. Should have gone there. Yeah, and
I can only yeah, I'm sure for all the people who,
I mean how many people live there? They're like, Oh, yeah,
that battle in India. Yeah, Oh, I heard about that
(54:15):
because I'm from there, very few miles. Because in two
thousand four workers in the town couldn't recall a single
black or Asian resident of poundary Um. So it's just
a white supremacy. Yeah, this is all just I mean,
the conservative values in the end all come down to
white supremacy. It's just open white supremacist values in our
(54:38):
mainstream media. And you know, you listen to like NPR
this morning and all they're talking about is the fucking
Queen's funeral and like closing things down and like being
like and uh, was there any security? And they were
like Hah yeah, I mean it's it's an absolute police
state over here. It's like worse than the two thousand
Twelve Olympics, ha, ha ha. But it's just open white supremacy, see,
(55:00):
and everyone's just cool with it, I guess, and it's
just like all right, moving on. Well, yeah, it's it's
that weird thing where it's like people think. They're like no, what,
it's his history. It's history. That's right. Oh, that's okay,
that's Oh right, okay, I'm still getting used to it.
I just thought it was like a thing from a
book rather than something that meant untold amounts of suffering
(55:21):
from people. And like he's almost definitely the one who
was asking about the complexion of Harry and Megan's baby,
like almost like there there's been a book that came
out that was like yeah, it was definitely it was him.
Like we have behind the scenes of reports. It's off
the record, but Um, so he's, you know, probably openly
racist behind closed doors and just all around right. I
(55:44):
mean like fucking a quarter God. So I can't imagine
you ever check yourself about what the ship that comes
out of your mouth. Yeah, so I can't wait. Well, Blake,
as always, truly a pleasure having you so much fun.
Thank you, guys. Where can people find you? Follow you
all that good stuff at Blake Wexler on all social media.
(56:08):
And then I have a podcast called Blake's takes, for
God's sakes, and it comes out every Wednesday. And if
you think this is chaos me on here, imagine when
I just have a blank canvas to operate upon, Um,
with no proud of pound town jokes. Oh it's yeah,
we are. It's subtitled pound to actually it's I can't
(56:30):
even make that joke, plumpers. It's sponsored by plumpers and
and I have not gotten paid from them at all.
But yeah, so that's my that's my podcast. I also
am a co host on this Philadelphia Eagles podcast where
it's their food podcast. It's called feeding the birds. So, Um,
that whole season, season is out. You can listen to
(56:52):
that and Blake Wexler Dot Com for my stand up dates.
But yeah, thanks, for God's Sakes. How's uh, how are
the birds look in this year? I feel like pretty good. Right.
There's randomly over the summer, suddenly they're like a favorite. Right. Yeah,
they look good. I'm going to the Monday night game
tonight actually, so Um, yeah, and they look good. Yeah,
(57:12):
I'm sick and it's a cool franchise to cheer for where.
You know, football has its issues, but as far as
franchises go, they tend to be on the right side
of of everything. So yeah, it's it's been great. Far
right side, the far right side, the far right. I'm sorry,
let me let me say the correct side. That's very important,
(57:34):
to the right side, the right side. That's right. I'm
gonna sign Aaron Rodgers. Get Him in here. He's just weird.
Is there a tweet or some of the work of
social media you've been enjoying? There's a tweet that I've
been laughing at all day where it's by H at
Christian Alysis, Christian A L S I s, and it's
(57:59):
a pit sure of a baby bib that's in Philadelphia
Eagles colors and it says I drool green and black,
and then his caption says bring your baby to the
hospital immediately. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know if
that's a good product, but it's all pro bit on
batteries or something. Wasn't that? I don't know. Whatever, it's
(58:21):
not cute miles. Where can people find you with a
tweet you've been enjoying? Find me on twitter and instagram
at miles of gray. Let's see. If you want to
hear some basketball talk, you gotta check out miles and
Jack Got Mad boost. If you want to hear some
ninety day fiance reality trash TV talk, check me out
on the other pod Twenty Day fiance on Ninety Day. Uh.
(58:44):
And let's see some tweets. I like. Man, there's a few. Uh.
This one is from at HM underscore. Leah tweeted. I

about this artist and S K I I F A
L L um and it's featuring bad, bad, not good,
one of my favorite bands, and it's called break of
dawn and I don't know. This guy's vibe is weird.
He got like a fucking ski mask on, but he's
(01:00:50):
like this. This is like a like an R and
B kind of track, like he's singing on it. So
I always like grimey singers. I don't know this. Maybe
that's not even skyfall, but this track is dope and
with bad, bad, not good. It kind of starts off
a little bit, you know, uh, like Reggae dubby style,
but then it gets into a little like they kind
of shift vibes mid song. But again called a break
(01:01:11):
of dawn, ski fall or Skyfall, with bad, bad, not good.

And that's just for a punch, like for the juice beverage.
Oh yeah, okay, it's not to actually punch somebody. Good
to know. Good to know not about violence. It's about yes,
just as a concept. Isn't that just like a juice
beverage served in a big bowl exactly because there's spices involved?

(03:42):
You give me sixty minutes, I'll give you the world
of chaos. This is Blake wex everybody. Thank you so
much for having. Wow, yeah, where you're reporting to us from,
I feel like, with that journalistic Um series of a
K is, I feel like you were going to be
like this Blake Wexler coming to outside Windsor cast still dead,
as far as we can tell. The car carrying the
(04:10):
past it with the Queen. That's probably not okay thing
to say. Um, that's fine. Yeah, that's also I feel
like the flag that they had over her coffin looked
like a black light poster. I don't even see. You
didn't wake up at four in the morning and just observe,
just quiet, light a candle, keep all the other lights
(04:33):
off in your house and just watch. I did, but
it was seven am my time, so that's the only
reason why I was able to wake up to do
it before is asking a lot. Yeah, Oh, I thought
they had a Maryland state flag on it. It didn't. Marylands.
I was like, all right, okay, go terps Bach, Steve
Francie's Fan. Yeah, he went to Blair Um. They called
(04:58):
him the enterprise instead of franchise because it's Britain. I'm sorry,
who is that for? It's for the it's for that
group of very well educated terrapins and eastern rockets. Is
that we went right? Yeah, he went well. I think
he was drafted by the Grizzlies. Um, we're talking about,
(05:19):
of course, about point guard. Um, one of the great,
most most exciting effort ever engine league. Just like incredible vertical.
I think he was six one, but like he would
jump over people's heads just to shoot a three. Um. Yeah,
was a blast to watch in his early days, for sure. UH,
stevie franchise. Steve Francis, great nickname, great basketball nickname. But anyway,
(05:42):
for the record, she did not have a Maryland state
flag on her coffin, even though that's what I thought
from a far. Did we fact check that? Are We
sure about that? You know, I will do that. Actually,
you know, I don't want to go out there and
taking Christian. I am poor of the of a bunch Um. Well, Blake,
it's truly great to have you um, as always. Congratulations.
(06:04):
By the way, you are a married man. Is that?
Is that something that we talk about? Or Yeah, yeah,
I can talk. Yeah, I'M A managing manager. Like make
you keep it a secret because, like a K pop thing,
it's one of those things where we don't like talking
about my sex life because as an actor. It makes,
you know, my fans confused where it's like, if I
play a single guy, I might not be casted in
it because I'm just so associated with being a married man.
(06:27):
I think that's kind of always been my vibe, is
married man anyway. So there's really no shift, but thank you. Yeah,
it's been uh yeah, my my fiance, who was my
girlfriend before that, and a friend, uh yeah, and then
an acquaintance before that and a classmate, I believe, your classmate,
(06:48):
former classmate school, married a former stranger, former stranger, current
acquaintance and wife. Uh Yeah, I know. We got married
in Philly and late July and then we went to
Portugal for or honeymoon, which was amazing. So I'm a
big Porto fan now that that happened, and and it's
what a time to be a fan. They've they're on
(07:08):
fire right now. What the franchises burning to the ground.
But yeah, no, it's been it's been great. So, yeah,
we had amazing we went to the asors which, uh,
is one of the coolest places I've ever been in
my entire life. I don't know if you guys ever
been there and know anything about it, but that's that's
a recommendation where it wasn't too expensive either. It's an
island chain in the middle of the Atlantic. It's like
(07:30):
basically Hawaii, but it's just straight up in the is
it like why? In the sense that no fucking tourists
need to go there anymore. I guess delicate infrastructure. Is Madera,
one of the Azores. It is like a comp. If
you yeah, it's Um, I believe it's north. Yeah, but
(07:53):
it's a good island comp. If we're doing island comps,
there's Hawaii, is the Pacific version, and if we're doing
an Atlantic Ocean comp, but or yeah, it's in there,
but no, it's in there's direct flights from the United States,
from like Boston and new work. So yeah, it was
I don't need to get into the the economics of it.
It was a beautiful, romantic time and like more than
(08:13):
talking about that place, like you could leave from Newark
if you wanted. Well, what about there? He's like, well,
that's the thing I love about it. You could leave
from Newark, the most romantic airport. What does it look like?
They're yeah, it's like any recommendation to relate back to
Newark in one way or another. So I do appreciate
you doing that. Um. All right, before we get to
(08:34):
getting to know you a little bit better, we're gonna
tell our listeners a couple of things. We're talking about
very spooky ship at a trump Ohio rally over the weekend.
It seems like he's going full blasts, embracing the que
on on of it all. Um, a lot of these
like one finger salutes that, uh, I don't know, I
think we're fucked. Uh. So we'll talk about that. We'll
(08:55):
talk about King Charles the third, the new monarch of England,
and why? A chuck three, Chuck Three, Republic enemy. He's
a probably a big fan of that reference. and Uh yeah,
he's Um it's it's gonna be entertaining to watch him
(09:16):
hold down the throne because he's a he's a disaster,
my guy in the truest sense of the word. Um.
So those are those are kind of the main things
we're talking about. Plenty more. But first, Blake, we like
to ask our guest. What is something from your search history?
Weather today? Sometimes I like to know what the weather
(09:38):
is and no, Um, I actually looked up dry cleaning
rights recently. Like what is my rights of rights as
someone seeking my cleaning to be dried, and we could
have rearranged those words. But I they like messed up
a shirt of mine and this was never an issue
until I got older. Like I don't really get dry
(09:59):
cleaning us. I go to a wedding or whatever and yeah,
they just really they lost a shirt and messed up
another one and they have like a big sign hanging
up saying we are not responsible for anything that happens.
But I think the the burden of proof is like
they have to give reasonable care to your laundry. But
(10:22):
it's it's one of these things where I don't know who,
what happened? What happened? What happened? Well, it was a disaster.
My Guy, he brought something to the dry cleaner and
then what happened? What? What garment is now fucked? There
was a lot of makeup, I believe, on my what
if this ended up being clearly on like having an affair?
(10:43):
I'm like, there was a lot of makeup and on
my collar that they put on there, I don't know,
and scent of a strong perfume. No, but there was
like actual like just weird. I don't know if it
was makeup or just your makeup? Do you wear neck makeup?
(11:04):
Cover your vampire bite exactly, and it's aging at a
at a rapid rate, a rate ten times quicker than
the rest of my body. So I do apply a
very generous amount of makeup to my neck. There's a
lot on it right now. But Um, yeah, so there's
tons of makeup, like other Brown like we or maybe
it's hair dye or something. I don't know what it like.
I was just picturing Banni's head leaking right, right, right,
(11:27):
and it's that pigment, you know, that pigment that you
can get on a swatch when you're painting the walls
of your house, Giuliani drip, and so, yeah, I don't
know what to do. I don't like confrontations, so I'm
trying to figure out. Do I go in with a
plan with my I might sue them. Yeah, I might
bring Indocino into it, and it's a class action suit.
(11:52):
But yeah, that's the type of soup, by the way,
that I was wearing. It's a class action. Don't all
write me. I'm a guest. You know, I don't know
how to pivot off of that joke. I was mildly impressed.
For Hey, Blake, what's something you think is overrated? I'M
gonna go back to how I'm being treated. Um, I
think overrated stopping for food, like on a road trip
(12:16):
where I know a lot of people. Um, you know,
it's part of the journey. They like to bake in. Oh,
we'll stop in a R yeah, yeah, beautiful down, Beautiful Arby's,
like local color. Like, what are the Arby's like around here?
They do. There is a range from Arby's to Arby's,
(12:37):
of course. And but yeah, no, I I've tried to
do it and I can't enjoy it. Like stop it
like a cool roadside like diner or whatever, and it's
just never worth it. I'm just too stressed. I'd rather
just go to the destination that I'm trying yeah, it's
overrated because you're like, I prioritize just getting the funk
(12:57):
out of this car at my destination. Yeah, that like
because it's still hanging over your head the rest of
the trip and you you're going to a place for
a reason, probably because it's cool. So why not spend
more time in the cool place that you're trying to
get to? Then roll the dice at a place that's
near a highway. You know, I'm sure I'm like that too.
I will I don't, I will not stop the car
(13:20):
to eat. I will slow it down to go through
a drive through, but like sitting down, I get the
same thing. I mean like I'm like I don't, I
don't like driving long distances, so I want this to
be fucking done with. Um. Yeah, the one time I
remember being like on a group trip and we stopped
at the place like right outside where James Dean died,
and it was like to eat here and I was
(13:41):
like I don't give them about James Dean. Can we
get to Oakland please? Didn't cut out. Yeah, yeah, a
tree or something. It's it's like a town, a small town,
has sprung up where he died to be like the
James Dean economy. Yeah, just driving too fast. Yeah, it's
(14:03):
like right in the middle of the desert. It's crazy. Yeah,
it's just that it's just cool. I don't know. And
in that place I was actively being like like I
was just like, how's the food? I'm like, I don't know, man,
it's fine, like we get the funk out of here,
because I was just like I don't get by James Dean.
Can we get the funk out the car? Definitely, like
had a had an impressive array of Jerkys at that.
At that. Yeah, stop at the James Dean Death Branch
(14:26):
cafe or something. Yeah, Um, anyways, I I look forward
to it because it's like one of the few times
that I permit myself to have like fast food. Yeah, yeah, so, yeah,
and when when I see a Taco Bell like off
the side, I don't know, there's something exciting about it
(14:48):
for me. Uh, and then I have to stop every
fifteen minutes afterwards. Ship. So, Um, it was really inefficient.
S H I T. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, the kids.
What's up? What's the T A L O v E
R T T P l e t what some of
(15:09):
you think is underrated? Underrated gravel bikes, which, Um, is
a type of bike, in between bike. Yeah, the in
between bike. It's like more comfortable, because I was shopping
for a bicycle and I was trying to decide. I've
been like cycling a lot more and I wanted to
(15:30):
up my bike game. So I was looking at these
really expensive bikes and I'm like, I don't really know
if I can spend this type, because bikes are really expensive.
If I can spend this money on it. And basically,
what I was told is that for what I do,
like what fifty to sixties, seventy miles or a week
or whatever, like, it's good to have. Yeah, that's right,
(15:51):
and that's and yeah, where are you going to give
up your car? No, I'm sorry, I have I drive
it around on car. I got a bike for my
car and I put on my car and I drive
it around. Fifty seven. Do you keep the doometer on
so that like it just that you're riding that fast?
This so cool. I put on the Apple Watch, Um,
(16:17):
and so, basically, I what I learned is that a
gravel bike, especially now, because streets are just such awful
ship and you are so streets are gravel with big
holes in them. And essentially it has a larger, slightly
larger tire and it's a hybrid, so you can still
go fast on the road if you want to, like,
(16:37):
you know, if that's something you're into, but also when
you go to these bumpy, more hazardous terrain things, you
know like you are still comfortable, like you're not going
to be shaken out of your mind. So, yeah, if
you're looking for a bike and you're not trying to
like enter a major race, I I've really, really enjoyed it.
Gravel bike. It's a road bike you don't have to
trip about if you start seeing dirt in front of you,
(17:00):
and it's a mountain bike that won't feel super fucking
slow just on asphalt. Ye, perfectly put. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Uh.
And look shout at all the bikes that gang, because
I was. I was also I got a bike recently,
but I got electric bike just to kind of like
zip around like where I live so I don't have
to use my car. I was also looking at that thing.
My God, Damn, these bikes for so much fucking money.
(17:20):
But then at the end of the day you're like,
if I'M gonna put a lot of time on it,
then like you can kind of begin to rationalize, like
why a quality bike is that? Yeah, I'm not. I don't.
It will be a long time since I buy a
bike that is thousands of dollars. Is there anyway? Just
everything is expensive right now, like I I feel like
everyone everyone I talked to WHO's like in the market
(17:41):
for something like my car, leas is coming up and
I like went and met with a Volvo dealer and
they were like yeah, so you're looking at like it'll
be like to at least two times what you used
to pay for the current car for the past three years,
like at least two times. They're like yeah, it's just
the way the market is right now, is it? Well,
cars are right now, especially because of the tech supply
(18:04):
chain and stuff, but that's definitely taken it. Where are
we trusting that? I feel like we just gave everybody
the license. We were just like inflation, and then everyone
was like dope and raise their prices like three times
the I still go by the same thing where I'm
like if it's too much, I'm like no, no, no,
I'm doing that right. I'm good, I'm good. I went
to this one place where they were showing me a bike.
(18:24):
It was six thousand dollars and in my vanity I'm
like maybe these big legs of mine deserve at which
is not even it would financially ruin me at my
body like legs like those, Nah, you're gonna need one
of these six thousand dollar guys. And then I started
blushing and I lost my ability to see and that's
(18:45):
how that's how you get me. And and they have
like electric like the brakes were, the shifters were electrics,
so you don't have to press the shifter too hard.
And there's still a bike that you peddle much luxury,
which is crazy. It's a crazy luxury. And I went
to this place called a t x bikes in Austin
and they like found me a bike. He's like, you
(19:05):
don't need any of this ship, like just get this bike,
and I did. It just spike, like take those plumpers
coming out of your pelvis and put them on this
bike and I was like that's the most disgusting way
to speak I've heard. Oh Man, uh, let's see. And so,
(19:27):
all right, let's take a quick break, we'll come back.
We'll talk about the return of Q. and we're back.
And Yeah, I'm still reeling from we're gonna just push through. Um,
(19:49):
you guys have to bleep it out. It's like not
technically a first word, but more upsetting than anything like that.
I'm gonna text at like three hours after this recording,
like who the fund just says, like what? Anyways, um
about something less setting, which is the American dissolving into
(20:14):
a weird like death pult God and the Turd Reich,
and Reich has a q on the end of it
is upon us, y'all. I did not know what you
were going for their but Turd rich, I can read
it now. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, not the
TIRD Ari I Q. Yeah, is this a collab between
Ari i? Yeah, this is a co OP. It's a
(20:38):
cult co OP. But you know, he's slowly been embracing
the Q and on conspiracy theory like since like it
was clear, like as the election was coming around, he
started kind of being a little more like a little
bit at them. Um, you know, this is again for
those of you who maybe know like that q and
on is a conspiracy theory, but I don't know exactly
(20:58):
what they mean by it. It means that the storm
is coming, a k a trump, becomes God emperor their
words and will hold like military tribunals to punish pedophile
Demon Democrats like Biden, Obama, Hillary. You get the point. Susan, Right,
Oh God, could that's can we make that list of
(21:21):
other war criminals? Who knows? But he like he's gone
from sort of like first when people asked about q
and on and people in his campaign kind of being
like what was that like, truly not knowing what the
funk it was, to now full blown like fusion, like
the two are fusing together now, and things begin to
really ramp up since the morrow Lagal Raid Um, and
just like this summer, like is his, I think, legal
(21:43):
jeopardy became a little more vivid and he saw the group,
as you know, dedicated people enough to really become a
problem in physical space and obviously if they're properly inside it,
which he is looking to do and he's. First he
started reposting just sort of memes that espouse like q
talking points, and then him, like images with him wearing
a Cuban to like full blown videos with all this
(22:04):
ominus ship playing like this like really heavy music underneath,
which we'll get to in a second. But he went
to this rally in Ohio on Saturday to, you know,
presumably to help J D Vance, uh, you know, run,
but most of the time just talking shit about Jd Vance,
about him kissing his ass now and like all this
other nonsense. Um. But now it's the hill billy elergy
(22:26):
guy who was like a never trumper Republican, like one
of the Good Guy Republicans on MSNBC and CNN and
ship for the first half of the trump presidency and
then made a made a turn once it became effective, uh,
very fully for him to for him to be a trumper,
and now he's now he's a big trump boy. Yeah,
(22:48):
and the rally itself, just sonically, I mean this is
the rally where, I'm sure you saw the headlines where
all these people were doing like a half cocked tile Hitler,
but like we're number one, like arm pose while on
push speaking very awesome vibes and silently holding up a
finger in the air towards M it is really eerie
(23:09):
looking ship like. It is really dark times. As as
someone who goes on stage for a living, if my
audience started doing that while I was on stage, like
I should probably change what I'm doing. You know what
I mean? Like any that is such a disconcerting any
gesture in that way, especially one that's reminiscent of a
Nazi salute, it is just the most horrifying thing that
(23:30):
you can in silence too, is almost worse than it's
even hard to watch, like Notre Dame when they win
a game and they do the Alma Mater at the
end and they're like they all hold their figures out. uh,
someone who went to a school that did that. I
was like, okay, but the rally fucking kicked off before
trump came out. This is the like son. They were
(23:51):
like trying to make this the weirdest fucking rally of
them all. I'm gonna play some of you. I'm not
gonna say what this music is. I'm just gonna let
you hear it, because some of you may know this
song well enough that it will freak you out. But
this is the music that played before Donald Trump comes
out at the rally. What the Blake? You know that song?
(24:18):
I believe that was before he switched to alymp biscuit song. Uh,
that was the undertaker's walking, walking up W W E theme.
So that's the fucking that's actually makes it way Lessieri,
but still like. It's just weird, though, because it's just like,
(24:41):
because I think it's for someone who doesn't know music
at all. So the most you'll do is like, dude, oh,
the undertaker theme. That's booking creepy, like you don't know
like Carl or for like other maybe classical composers. He
might have given you a freaky demon vibe. But anyway,
he comes out. He starts doing the usual ship. He's saying,
(25:02):
you know, immigrants are monsters, drug dealers should be like
summarily executed. I finished the border wall for real. Uh.
And then he got to the last part of his speech,
and this time he was like the thrust of the
speech was what he did, like in and like at
his inauguration, where he's like America's like the streets are
filled with blood and like it's all fucking creepy. Get Out. Um,
(25:25):
and he's playing a very dramatic piece of music. So
this is trump giving his speech about how dark and
twisted America is, with a score that comes in and
I'll just let you listen to how fucking weird this
whole ship sounds. But now we are a nation in decline,
(25:51):
we are a failing nation. We are a nation that
has the highest inflation in fifty years and of the
stock market finished the worst first half of the year
since eighteen seventy two. I remember that. Um, he goes on. Dude,
this speech went on on. Here's another part. Just keeps
(26:13):
going with this. Music is not being added. We're a
nation that no longer has a free press. How about
this one? Keeps Ping them off. We will not bend,
we will not break, we will not yield, we will
never give in, we will never give up, we will never, ever, ever,
(26:33):
ever back down. Anyway, while this has happened, that there
was another ever in there, but exactly four ever. Come on,
five ever girls, five ever. Um, the whole crowd. You
saw people just doing this, putting up one hand with
their index finger out, while he was speaking, and I was,
like all the like journalists that were there, like there's
(26:53):
some weird ship going on in here right now, like
people are like suddenly putting their fingers in the air. Uh,
and a lot of people like a people who are
pretty up on q and on ship. They started looking
at how a lot of the Q influence, influencers, started
talking and a lot of them started pointing there like,
Oh my God, this is that track W W G,
one W G A, like where we go, one we
(27:14):
go all, which is their model, like their mantra as
a fucking conspiracy theory, and this is like this track
that's really well known. I Gat for q people and
they were like, Oh my God, where he's he's playing
the fucking theme music, like while he's giving this speech,
and the guy the main like that one q influencer
who's behind our favorite JFK, will return a conspiracy theory
(27:36):
where he saw Michael Jackson on drum at that rolling
stones concert. Rolling Stones are also actually dead. You know,
he was there and he was at the rally and
he said quote. During the song, we had a powerful
moment where our group held up one finger, a call
for unity, acknowledging, acknowledgement of our one God. Where we
(27:57):
go one, we go all and more. It was magical
and completely planned, as many of the in the crowd
joined us in the gesture, a gesture to say this
to this beautiful man where with you. His people are
saying we didn't play that track. It's actually another track
called mirrors, but some, like musicologists and like other people,
like side by side, played the tracks and they're they're
(28:18):
the identical. So they're kind of using that like women like, well,
it's not that one, but if you listen to you
like that's the same fuck it like, quite literally, is
the same track, just with a different name. It was
a song that was called mirrors that, like q and on,
took and put on like a q and on mixtape. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
and God and renamed it to be just you know,
(28:41):
they have no use for truth or like what you know,
so they were just like, yeah, this is actually our
song that we we wrote, put it on a mixtape
and it is now known as where we go, when
we go, we go all among everybody who believes in Q,
and obviously that is the intended effect of of this trump. Trump.
(29:01):
Playing it, I mean playing any music over the end
of the speech is very strange, unless it's quite literally
the last sentence of it and it's like d like
you're trying to go out on something, maybe, but like
to be like I'm gonna make a movie. Happen Right
now is but you know what has the intended effect, clearly,
(29:23):
because now many people are like buzzing about this like
sort of open faced embrace of this conspiracy theory and
what it all means. And it couldn't happen at a
fucking worse time like in the last two weeks we've
seen all kinds of q related violence from people who
are huge believers in the conspiracy theory, where, you know,
from murder to making threats with firearms. What was the
(29:44):
somebody like killed their family or something because you have
que beliefs. Yeah, like that was sort of the end
point with their just obsession with the conspiracy theory. Yeah,
it's really scary. It's I mean he's fantasized on multiple
occasions about having Nazi like en rolls and supporters who,
you know, give him the attention that Hitler commanded when
(30:06):
he would speak. So like this just seems like it
plays directly into the path that he's always wanted to
be on. Like, I saw a headline somewhere over the
weekend there was saying something to the effect of a
second trump administration would be more of the same, but worse.
And I really think we're failing to understand like he
(30:29):
he has given up on any any idea that like
he's not he's going to be anything but a military dictator. If,
if he wins office again, it's going to be straight
up behaving like a dictator from the very start. That's
it's it's not going to look like his first term,
nor is it gonna look like any other term in
the history of US presidencies. If if he's actually elective. Yeah,
(30:53):
it's yeah, I mean the first president was the one
that his first administration was one and he'd be like, Oh,
I can't do that right, and the second time he's
gonna be like I know why and let me just
burn push right through that, because that's, you know, the
first time I sucked up by not just completely burning
it down. Gravel Bikes, those are core r yeah, they
(31:14):
will be in the I mean pretty good for the
apocalypse too. You may just want to go to that
may be wishful thinking if you would only need a
gravel bike in the coming apocalypse. But yeah, just more
desperation from trump and I think as everything gets more
vivid for him in terms of what his like legal
(31:34):
liability is, it's only going to get more and more
bizarre and fucking creepy and undertaker ship, because it clearly
resonates like, I mean, these people are really they're like
Holy Shit, like Oh, he knows. I mean the hope
is that this is a bridge too far for most people, Um,
and that like because of his unique brand of pathological,
(32:01):
like almost debilitating narcissism, rual death cult and you know,
all all these things coming together will lead people to
be like, okay, you have convinced of the country that
like this is the way forward. Unfortunately, that is not
not enough to win the presidency. On the other hand,
(32:22):
they have a massive propaganda like engine that is going
to be fully churning out misinformation from now until the
day that he runs for president, which is happening. Uh
Ron de Santis. I feel like people are almost hoping
at this point that he's going to come through. But
(32:43):
Ron de Santis, first of all, is also horrifying, but
also I don't think it's going to be able to
beat trump and a republican primary. That popularity contest is
going to be. I mean, who knows? That people gift.
They really think. They want to step to them and
see if they can what ends up happening there. But yeah, yeah,
either way, I mean like to pick your take your pick.
(33:04):
They're all pretty much trying to go full speed into
the same sort of nightmare scenario where it's like, man,
people that matter even fucking less, just so you know. Yeah,
and maybe it'll get worse before it comes to an
election because, like you said, there's like what they believe
at their core is that, you know, this is a
(33:26):
war that they're involved in, and a ton of just
wild shit about everybody who's not a que believer or
just or even not Christian. I mean the same way
Lauren Boeboerd is out here saying stuff like all the
Christians need to know, like we're like we have a
mission on a mission from God, and not in the
Blues Brothers Way, like they're trying to fucking believe that
(33:48):
they are supposed to inherit this country and lead it
into this, you know, theocracy. So you know, keep your
eye out, keep your eye out. Oh, one of the
things that guy who wrote that album the Q, and
on mixtape it was called silver cloud five, which I'm
sure probably has to do with like pem trails or
some weird ship. But there are two tracks on there
that were the name of this one. These tracks, one
(34:13):
was called Q. Send Me Que, send me darling. You
Q Darling, okay, and the other there was another one
called ANTIFA. assholes. There you go. Anyway, don't buy them,
don't don't give this person any money. No, no, no,
pirate that ship if you want to hear it. I
mean those spotify residuals are so much money that we
(34:35):
don't want to fund them with their point zero two cents.
But yeah, I do wonder too. It's almost like sad
fanboys ship where them saying the q people saying like,
Oh my God, trump knows, he knows, he doesn't know
who you are. He's susceptible to flattery and his handlers
and his campaign know how to capitalize off the q movement.
(34:58):
Trump himself see people in trump jerseys, you know, like
he's like, Oh, they like me, they like what I'm doing,
but doesn't really understand. I would imagine more than that.
But it's his machine that knows how to Ye and
we've talked about just how all the time. Like the
policy is like when they need more voter like energy,
you just turn the heat up hotter on the grossest
(35:20):
takes you got and just just still just cook that
down into the grossest fucking people where. Now it's like
I gotta energize the xenophobes, the fucking homophobes, the people
who like forced birth, conspiracy, theorists, and then I'm like,
I don't even know what the wrungs lower than that
are going to be, like Nazi flat earthers or whatever,
like it's just gonna be, you know, to continue to
(35:42):
try and Eke out more support from these people. While
completely ignoring, like what you know, most people here. I'll
tell you he's not going to get the gravel bike users. Okay,
as a group we're not gonna hop on that. Man.
I've seen those outdoor biking trails communities. I feel like
I've seen some cut, some jam band and is mixed
(36:06):
in there. What am I promoting? All right, let's take
a quick break. We'll come back and we will talk,
we will laugh and point in another country. Um, finally,
(36:31):
and we're back. and Um. So the queen's funeral obviously
happened over the past like two weeks. Yeah, just ongoing. Um,
the the amount the outpouring in the street was, I think,
surprising to a lot of people, just how many people
(36:52):
were willing to wait to watch the coffin and go by,
Um and just to get get a glimpse throw flowers
in the general direction. Um. And so one piece of
context that I had somewhat missed amid the massive propaganda
push is that they believe they are in trouble, the
(37:15):
royal family as an institution. For literal decades they've been like,
what are we gonna do when she dies? Her son
is like a walking piece of anti monarchy, propaganda. You
can't spell the whole word, but the clip of him
(37:38):
almost dissolving into tears over a fountain pen leaking and
then saying I can't bear this bloody thing. What they
do every stinking time. Um, referring to pens, I guess. Yeah,
I've never related to someone more in my entire life
to him in that moment. There's just certain products that suck,
you know, like what do you like? Switch to a feather.
What they do every geting time. I tip there. This
(38:04):
bloody thing is so dramatic. Um gets a real decision making.
My man, exactly. This was the things we see in
this twenty second clip. Put It, I think it's an
instant classic and it's kind of on the level of
funk it. We'll do it live, the Bill O'Reilly Um,
(38:26):
you know, where he gets really frustrated, but it's like
not clear, but like he's he's just venting about something,
something that he's fucking up. Um. In this case, we
opened the clip with him saying what is it? September,
and his wife saying two days off. My Guy, it's
actually also you signed the twelfth earlier, dumb, dumb Um,
(38:52):
and your your whole job is just to like sit
there and sign official documents. That's your that's your whole job,
and you immediately like got just the pen exploded on
your hand. He like storms off in a huff saying
he can't bear the bloody thing, and then I guess
(39:13):
she has to like stinking, stinking time. So there was
this review in the New York or which I read, uh,
because I'm very cultured about it was a book. They
were reviewing, a book by a royalist, so somebody who
(39:35):
like is really into the institution, and it is just
exhibits a through Z of why the monarchy is bad
for society and for like the modern world, but especially
for the development of this human being in particular Um.
But I think for the purposes of like entertainment and
(39:58):
a like documentary satire of privilege and inequality and conservative values,
he is going to be like a Truman show esque
creation that has just been like perfectly marinated to undermine
everything about this institution. So the book starts out with
(40:20):
this author dealing with the fact that everybody in England
is like Charles should just bypass it and give it
to his son, because his son is charming and Charles is.
We don't like him. We don't really don't like Charles
and this writer's whole point is like that would be
(40:42):
democracy and that is the exact opposite of what they
claim to stand for. Like, when you think about like
their whole thing is that like the opposite of democracy.
And so if they did that because the son is
more likable, that completely subverts the whole thing. But because
(41:04):
he's so unlikable in such a disaster that he can't
sign a paper without having a Temperat, I think they're
going to like shotgun wedding him onto the throne. Like
Queen Elizabeth. There was an eighteen month morning period before
she took the royal whatever's. But he's gonna I think
(41:24):
they're planning to just really shotgun him, wedding him onto
the throne as g as quickly as possible. Wait, for
what purpose? So so that people don't get any ideas. Basically, oh,
because in that vacuum like in between you and be
like well, what if and they're like no, no, no, motherfucker,
he's a king, he's a king. Yeah, Oh right, because
I've seen the thing about like a few takes of
like he should abdicate because this dude has wasted the
(41:47):
prime years of his life waiting for his mom to die.
And then where it's just like it's going to be
a Gerontocracy, where it's just these older people are like
in power, while they're people who have like ideas that
are relevant to most of the people that are on
earth that might be able to kind of have a
different take. But like the low point of popularity of
the monarchy was Diana's death. And so again, like they
(42:11):
kind of skip over it in the review of this book,
but like that was squarely because they had made the
monarchy a Diana versus Charles thing and like people just
don't like this guy. He is. So I just want
to read some of these quotes from like a summary
of a book that is supposedly Pro Charles and pro
(42:33):
the monarchy. UH quote. He is a preening SNOB, keenly
sensitive to violations of protocol, intolerant of opinions contrary to
his own and horribly misled about the extent of his
own talents. And then this is. This is uh, this
is a parenthetical aside. An amateur water colorist, he once
offered Lucian Freud known as one of the foremost twentieth
(42:57):
century English portraits, one of his paintings, one of Charles's paintings,
in exchange for one of Freud. Oh ship. He was like, yeah,
what do you think? We're basically same level. Um for
for that one, the one that they say is like
your masterpiece, because this is like mine too. So, Oh,
(43:19):
what is it? It's a sun in a cloud against
a white sky. And those lines, yeah, those are some
the sun, the sunbeams, and then those lines, yeah, those
are stink lines coming off from that that Hobo on
the ground. stinkers. No meaner phrase than an amateur water colorist.
Like that's the meanest thing I've ever heard someone say
(43:41):
about another person's terrible that's what you say. Like yeah,
I've in preschool when you do watercolor for the first time,
like in my amateur water water colorists. I said water color,
like I'm from. You're hanging with two philly guys over colors.
Thank you. Freeze it and it becomes water ice. Um.
(44:02):
He reportedly travels with a white leather toilet seat and
Um travel travels with I'm sure he doesn't have to
touch that ship, but he has. He probably has somebody
who is fully like employed just to be the keeper
(44:24):
of the Royal White Leather Toilet seat so that he
never has to touch a toilet seat touched by any
other ass in the history of his life. This book, again,
that is a royalist portrait of Prince Charles, details his
outrage on the rare occasions when he has to fly
first class rather than in a private jet, and she
(44:46):
writes about it as like the prince's paradoxes. But it's
part oh Mike Bending up able, meanwhile being like he's
a preening snob with paper thin skin, this asshole, but
he's an enmorous really, um. What is a white leather
(45:07):
I'm okay, I remember back in the eighties there used
to be those white cushiony plastic toilet seats. Remember those?
Oh yeah, they were like I feel like those were
always at the homes of people who were in their
seventies and yes, my grandparents had when I hated it,
I was like this ship feels like a Shitty beach ball,
like what the funk is this? And I'm just thinking
(45:27):
of like how even then I was like I'd rather
sit on a normal hard toilet seat. I'm good with that?
We don't we. We did fine with I don't need
cushions or leather bound ship. I can't imagine what the
like really is that in his mind it's like it
has to be this cushion and white leather. He takes
himself so seriously, like that's what he he like deeply,
(45:50):
fully thoroughly believes that he is like a misunderstood genius
thought leader and like that's the least that he boo
could do is allow him to always fly private and
never have to have his ass touch where another as plastic.
Do you think? Oh, what if he's just like, I
(46:11):
can't interact with plastic? Right, then he does, because he's
also like one of those Um he's always talking about yeah,
stuff like he's like stuff that is true, like about
integrative medicine and stuff like that. He refers to himself
as a quote healer and would would probably operate on
(46:34):
you if you let him, because like that's what the
sort of ship that he believes. So this is again
reading direct quotes from this review. Sent thousands of letters
to government ministers, known as the black spider memos, for
the urgent scroll of his handwriting on matters ranging from
school meals an alternative medicine, to the brand of helicopters
(46:57):
used by British soldiers in IRA and the plate of
the Patagonian toothfish. He's giving countless speeches to British businessmen
on their poor business practices, to educators on the folly
of Omitting Shakespeare from the National Curriculum, to architects on
the horrid nous of the tall modern building and so on.
(47:18):
So he just gets in there and speaks to experts
about like how what they do sucks. Please come on
this podcast. I'm looking at a Patagonian toothpish right now
and it's polite is that it is an ugly sucker.
That's a plight. That thing is ugly as hell. By
the way, I was looking up I was trying to
try to like figure out where I had heard the
phrase I can't bear this bloody thing, what they do
(47:41):
every stinking time, and I think I've yelled that in
my car while trying to park at a trader Joe's.
I think every single time I go to a trader
Joe's I've yelled that in my car, like why don't
they have more parking? Yeah, this bloody thing. I can't
bear this bloody thing they do. I have come to realize,
he told an audience in two thou two, that my
entire life has been so far motivated by a desire
(48:03):
to heal, heal the dismembered landscape and the poisoned soul,
the cruel ty shattered townscape, where harmony has been replaced
by a cacophony, to heal the divisions between intuitive and
rational thought, between mind and body and soul, so that
the temple of our humanity can once again be lit
by a sacred flame Um. And everyone's like boo, fuck you,
(48:26):
like of people like so. We saw how people in
England treated the throne when, you know, the Queen died.
They all were out in the streets yesterday just watching
a car drive by with her body and just overcome
with grief, like don't even want this motherfucker to like
(48:49):
be the king. They're like Nah, like we're we love
the monarchy, but like not, not when it comes to you.
They're they're like ready to anyone, literally, anyone but him,
anyone else, like the British police have reacted to criticism
by arresting people when someone said, like who elected him?
So it might not all be like funny. It's probably
going to be the society coming together to fend off
(49:13):
any criticisms of this dipshit like as as much as possible. Yeah,
when those people are getting arrested, I think a lot
of those laws were born out of like hate speech.
So what happened? It's like a lot of the like.
We talked about this all the time in the US,
like free speech and things like. What the slippery slope
is when you begin to like actually say like, Oh yeah,
you can get arrested for that, because on the other
(49:34):
side of that coin you can be someone with a
blank sign outside of Buckingham Palace and they'll arrest you because, like,
they arrested a guy, they said, because he may have
written something offensive on it. And Yeah, it's a man
just seeing so many, so many things happen at once
is uh, I don't know, I don't know. I'm just glad.
(49:54):
I'm just glad we have our perfect system here. Yeah,
thank God. Yeah, do you think it's also like do
you think he's just so like monarch brained, like, because
you hear about how, like, you know, like me growing up,
it's like saying, like your grandpa used to have a
barbecue restaurant and then his daddy also used to smoke
meats in the south. And I'm like, okay, like I
(50:17):
kind of an idea, like that's why I like to cook.
I like barbecue ship like that. But like they're coming
with like four centuries, boy, your blood has ruled the
land and like you turn into this fucking guy who's
like telling like, Hey, scientists, this is what you need
to do about cold fusion. Hey, helicopter pilots, have you
tried these micro machines? They look pretty cool in the commercials.
(50:38):
What else? What other fucking ideas have I got? Because
I'm a healer, because this is a divine right I have. Yeah,
he truly probably thinks he like is half God, which
is appropriate for for America. We got the same thing
going on, I meaning, hell, you're fucking fingers first, Bro,
and then we can talk. He also just like in
the context of his critiques of modern an architecture, they
(51:01):
gave him like a town. They were like, Hey, why
don't you build a town that you can come on, hey,
why don't you build it down Charles Street? Ark over
there and build a town. Yeah, okay, it's basically it's
called poundberry Um and it is basically a few feudal detailand.
He was adamant that would not be another soulless housing estate.
(51:22):
But everyone's like it's weird, like he has like these
curvy streets, but the curves in the road like aren't
for anything other than just him doodling. I guess like
the way the roads are looked is because it's like
having a big piece of blank papers in front of
it in the road. Yeah, exactly like that. It's not.
(51:45):
It's not on a grid system. It's just random roads,
just vibes, just king vibes, King Major Poundbury vibes. But
then you know, in addition to thinking that he like
deserves this, his perspective so limited that like the grandest
buildings in this town are not schools or libraries but
(52:05):
luxury apartment complexes, because that's like that he has ever experienced.
There are strict rules about altering homes, so much so
that a few years ago, homes were being inspected with
cameras to make sure no one was altering them without approval.
Solar panels aren't allowed if they're visible, because the environment.
He wants it to look like an old timey thing.
(52:25):
One woman even claimed she was evicted because she had
too many plants outside her house. Um, yeah, that's so scary.
People lived there. Like in my mind it was just
kind of an empty plot of land that nobody was using,
but the fact that there were actual citizens, yeah, in
his weird town and the people who lived there like yeah,
(52:49):
I mean you'd think these would be good buildings because
they have like do you do you know how much money?
Like the Royal Family has four hundred sixty million dollars liquid,
but I think they own, like when you look at
all their holdings and all like the value of all
the different things that they own, it's like seventy seven
(53:10):
billion dollars that he just inherited. And these buildings that
he built they leak, like they don't like they're just
it's like if you gave a kid with no training
like like not nothing works and the whole things. That's
just complete disaster. There's a monument in the big central
hub of the town, is called Queen Mother Square, which
(53:33):
with the statue of his Grandmama, and it's just generally
a tribute to British imperialism. Streets are named after battles
fought in Iraq and India. Yeah, Whoa, yeah, yeah, Chuck Baby,
Chucky Valley. MM. He was going to call it pound town.
(53:53):
I don't I don't know why I'm still here. It
is funny the towns that pound town Um. Pound town
is the American equivalent. Should have gone there. Yeah, and
I can only yeah, I'm sure for all the people who,
I mean how many people live there? They're like, Oh, yeah,
that battle in India. Yeah, Oh, I heard about that
(54:15):
because I'm from there, very few miles. Because in two
thousand four workers in the town couldn't recall a single
black or Asian resident of poundary Um. So it's just
a white supremacy. Yeah, this is all just I mean,
the conservative values in the end all come down to
white supremacy. It's just open white supremacist values in our
(54:38):
mainstream media. And you know, you listen to like NPR
this morning and all they're talking about is the fucking
Queen's funeral and like closing things down and like being
like and uh, was there any security? And they were
like Hah yeah, I mean it's it's an absolute police
state over here. It's like worse than the two thousand
Twelve Olympics, ha, ha ha. But it's just open white supremacy, see,
(55:00):
and everyone's just cool with it, I guess, and it's
just like all right, moving on. Well, yeah, it's it's
that weird thing where it's like people think. They're like no, what,
it's his history. It's history. That's right. Oh, that's okay,
that's Oh right, okay, I'm still getting used to it.
I just thought it was like a thing from a
book rather than something that meant untold amounts of suffering
(55:21):
from people. And like he's almost definitely the one who
was asking about the complexion of Harry and Megan's baby,
like almost like there there's been a book that came
out that was like yeah, it was definitely it was him.
Like we have behind the scenes of reports. It's off
the record, but Um, so he's, you know, probably openly
racist behind closed doors and just all around right. I
(55:44):
mean like fucking a quarter God. So I can't imagine
you ever check yourself about what the ship that comes
out of your mouth. Yeah, so I can't wait. Well, Blake,
as always, truly a pleasure having you so much fun.
Thank you, guys. Where can people find you? Follow you
all that good stuff at Blake Wexler on all social media.
(56:08):
And then I have a podcast called Blake's takes, for
God's sakes, and it comes out every Wednesday. And if
you think this is chaos me on here, imagine when
I just have a blank canvas to operate upon, Um,
with no proud of pound town jokes. Oh it's yeah,
we are. It's subtitled pound to actually it's I can't
(56:30):
even make that joke, plumpers. It's sponsored by plumpers and

You know, football has its issues, but as far as
franchises go, they tend to be on the right side
of of everything. So yeah, it's it's been great. Far

let me let me say the correct side. That's very important,

Eagles colors and it says I drool green and black,
and then his caption says bring your baby to the
hospital immediately. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know if
that's a good product, but it's all pro bit on

L L um and it's featuring bad, bad, not good,
one of my favorite bands, and it's called break of
dawn and I don't know. This guy's vibe is weird.
He got like a fucking ski mask on, but he's
(01:00:50):
like this. This is like a like an R and
B kind of track, like he's singing on it. So
I always like grimey singers. I don't know this. Maybe
that's not even skyfall, but this track is dope and
with bad, bad, not good. It kind of starts off
a little bit, you know, uh, like Reggae dubby style,
but then it gets into a little like they kind
of shift vibes mid song. But again called a break
(01:01:11):
of dawn, ski fall or Skyfall, with bad, bad, not good.
