(02:31):
Dingo Iron Rapports The Real podcast, coming live and direct
from New York City. And it is cold out and
I was discussing while I was getting a haircut with
my barber Eric. I said, you know, Eric, uh, does
it seem colder than normal? And we were going back
and forth because it's fucking cold out, and I know
(02:54):
there's way more important, interesting, exciting thing to discuss then
the weather in New York. But it's like the seventies
up in this bitch. It's cold because the last few
years in December, me and my barber Eric decipher because
(03:15):
I got a fresh cut. You see the cut. You
see my haircut, right, you see me looking good on
the yarn. The last few years, December was like nothing.
What happened to Indian summer? That shit's done in twenty
twenty five Slash twenty six. It's brick cold out right
(03:38):
now in the middle of December, and we're heading to
the last few weeks of twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
But if you're coming to New York, don't think shit
is sweet. It ain't sweet.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
It's exactly what you think it will be don't bring
any cute clothing or you're like, oh, I'm you know
fresh Tom. No, bring a motherfucking blanket, Bring a north face,
bring a wool ridge, bring a sleeping bag. Wear that
(04:10):
shit outside because it is very, very cold out. It
was outside last night at a Hanukah event.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Get to all.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
The anti jewishness that's going on. But my wife and
I co host of the hit podcast rap Ports Reality
If you've never listened to rap a Ports Realities, where
me and my wife break down all things reality TV,
and it is an incredible time in reality TV right now.
(04:42):
It is an amazing time in the world of reality
TV right now. But my wife and I have a
podcast we drop like clockwork every single week Wednesdays, where
we talk all things reality TV, a few things pop culture,
and of course some gem from the inside inside walls
(05:05):
of what it's like being married to me. And it
ain't no cakewalk. I can tell you that it ain't
a fucking cakewalk. My wife is a saint. What was
I talking about? Oh yeah, because we were outside after
sun after it had snowed the other day in New
York it was ice. I didn't have my boots on.
I was slip sliding away and.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
I was like, what the fuck? And she was like, oh,
you're supposed to be miss new York. And I said,
I am missed new York.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
And she said, well, you, mister new York supposed to
know when there's ice on the streets. And I said,
I am not prepared for this. I'd have no hat on,
I'd have no gloves on. I was fucking slipping all
over the place. I was afraid I was gonna fall down. Listen,
you come to New York, bring some boots, Timberland boots,
(05:51):
some round boots, North faced boots, whatever the Bring some
construction boots. Bring something I don't hear about, Yo, Mike
rap coming to New York. If you are coming to
New York, don't call me up for no pizza suggestions,
no places to chill suggestions.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
If you're not coming to New York with some boots.
First and foremost, bring some.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Boots, Bring a hat, some mittens, maybe some ear muffs.
Because it's it's like that. It's like that, and when
the sun goes down, it is like that. How did
I get into that? But the knicks Jalen Brunson is
the best American player in the NBA. I'll say it again,
(06:33):
Jalen Brunson is the best American born player in the NBA. Obviously,
his career is in his greatest Steph Curry, Kevin Durant,
Lebron James, and so forth and so on, but currently
right now in the NBA of the young guns, Jalen
Brunson is the best American born player in the NBA.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
And his stock and his status is rising.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
He is a born score, a natural born leader and understated,
I mean, you can't stop this fucking guy, the little fundamental.
There's not a lot of shimmy in his game. There's
not a lot of you know, Chris Crossing. He's got
some shit, but it's not like Kyrie Irving shit. It's
(07:19):
not like Steph Curry shit, it's not like Chris Paul like,
you know, ankle breaking shit. He's got some shit. But man,
he is fun to watch. And the Nicks. Listen, if
they win this Cup tonight, they're playing against San Antonio
(07:43):
and Wemby. They're playing for this cup tonight. If they
win this cup, I say we throw a mini parade.
I'm not saying like go around the five Burroughs. But
I'm saying, like a mini something something around the garden.
Like we go from the garden, we go to like
fourteenth Street, we come up forty deuce and we make
a lap something like that. We need it bad in
(08:06):
New York for the Knicks because we've been through so much.
Obviously the history is not great. It's exciting. We have
something to look forward to. But if we win this.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Cup, fuck it. I say raise a flag and do
a little mini parade.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Fourteenth to forty second Street, down ninth Avenue, come back up,
you know, seventh Avenue, loop around, come back down sixth
on forty second Street. Boom, a little mini parade for
the New York Nicks. Okay, I'm not saying go down
(08:44):
fifth Avenue. I'm not saying take it, you know, five burrows,
but just a little something something. It'd be nice to
raise a banner because if you go to the garden
and you look at the banners that we have up them,
shits are falling apart. They are falling parts. And the
NFL is cooking, the NBA is cooking, and like I said,
(09:08):
Wemby he's back. Hopefully he'll stay healthy. You need Wemby.
You need Wemby, you need all the stars you can get.
Despite the fact that Lebron James at fifty two years old,
Lebron Jays fifty one or fifty two years old, is
I'm not gonna sit here and not enjoy the last
(09:29):
couple of years. It might be five The motherfucker might
play five more years. It might be three years, it
might be two years. But I Am not gonna sit
here and not enjoy a fifty one year old Lebron
James in his last few years. He is doing things
this year with the Lakers. I'm bugging out off of
this guy like everybody else. Like he loves to play.
(09:54):
You can say this about him, you can say that
about him. I've said it all about him. But he
loves to play good basketball and he still has that
joy when he's out on the court. Lebron James, say
what you want about him. He's never said I've lost
my joy for the game. Jimmy Butler said he lost
his joy for the game. John Morant his joy is
gone for the game. Lebron James in his twenty ninth
(10:17):
year in the NBA. Again, I've said everything about him,
but he enjoys playing the game. He competes, he doesn't
cheat the game. He's not a cheap shot artist. He's
got bums. And I say that with all due respect,
because Dylan Brooks is not a bum, but he's got bums.
Like Dylan Brooks, cheap shot in him talking shit to him.
You never see him get completely out of character and
(10:38):
go and make a fool of himself.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
He just stays within his mode.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
He dunks on you, he runs back, he hustles back,
he blah fifty one. So I'm enjoying that. I'm enjoying
the NFL season. I got to give a shout out
to Hall of Famer CC Sabbathia. This is one of
my favorite guys to compete against a fantasy football. I'm
in a league with CC Sabathia, amongst others, Joe Button
(11:05):
amongst others.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
But I took down Hall of Famer C. C.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Sabathia in my first week of fantasy football playoffs, and
I told him, I said, CC, I'm throwing the pitches
high and tight, and sometimes I got control of these puppies.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Sometimes I don't.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
I suggest this weekend a fantasy football you were a
batting helmet. I'm not saying I'm going at your head.
I'm not saying that I'm trying to intentionally hit you.
I'm just saying I'm like Charlie Sheen. I'm wild thing
in that shit. I'm like Charlie Sheen and major league.
(11:50):
Sometimes I lose control of it. And you got a duck,
And sure enough, I made C. C. Sabathia, a gentleman,
a hall of famer. I made him duck all weekend long,
and I beat his ass in my fantasy football playoff.
(12:11):
And now I'm about to go with somebody else. I
don't want to bore you with that, but he is
a hall of famer. I had to mention that I
beat CC Sabathia, had him duck in running for cover
out of the batter's box.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
All weekend long.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
And it was a rough, rough weekend of injuries, obviously,
with my homeboy getting injured, Michael Parsons getting injured. There's
been terrible, terrible injuries. We had a great story. They
didn't win, but he played. He didn't play great, but
he was out there. Philip Rivers was out there playing.
(12:50):
That was exciting. Jamis Williamson, my guy, played his ass
off DeAndre Swift of the Chicago Bears. My guy played
his ass off, My kicker Fairburn played his ass off.
And you know, the NFL is it's happening. The NFL
(13:11):
is happening, the NBA is happening. They're both fantastic, despite
the fact that the NFC South this is an embarrassment
the Buccaneers and embarrassment the Panthers of both of you
guys losing to bottom feeders. You play each other twice
down the stretch, figure it out, and the playoffs before
(13:34):
we know what, we're gonna be watching Christmas Day basketball
and NFL playoff football, and hopefully wherever you're watching those
games it's warmer than it is here in New York City.
(14:02):
I'm gonna do it again. I'm gonna do it one
mo time. Jake Paul is fighting Anthony Joshua. Anthony Joshua
is a heavyweight. Jake Paul is a non boxer, Anthony Joshua,
(14:25):
I'm gonna tell you once again, nobody outside of boxing
knows who you are, Okay, I said this before people
look up up in the UK.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Everybody knows about the Anthony Joshua.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Nobody outside of boxing knows who you are, Anthony Joshua,
your legacy is on the line. If you do not
beat the shit out of Jake Paul, your legacy will
(14:59):
be tarnished forever.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Your legacy isn't that great. You've had a good career.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
But if you cannot beat the shit out of Jake Paul,
or you do not commit to beating the shit out
of Jake Paul this coming weekend, your legacy. All the
hard hours of sparring, training, heavy bag, speed bag, roadwork,
(15:24):
every single thing that you've put into your career, all
the dieting, all the jumping rope, all the mint work,
all the punches you've taken, all the commitment you have
given if you cannot beat Jake Paul convincingly and or
(15:45):
knockout Jake Paul, who is not a real boxer. I'm
watching Jake Paul. Why you posting videos of you hitting
a heavy bag? You need me to post videos of me.
I do the same shit that you're doing hitting a
heavy bag, and I'm fifty five years old old. Jake Paul,
You're not impressing any more. You're hitting a fucking heavy bag.
(16:05):
I go to Alle Fitness, I see guys that look
exactly like and you're posting that like your Sugarne Leonard.
Go fuk about you hitting a heavy bag, Anthony Joshua.
You're bigger than fake Paul. You're more experienced than Fake Paul.
(16:25):
Do you want to go down as a guy who
participated in an arranged fight with Fake Paul? Or do
you want to go down as a worldwide hero as
the guy who beat the shit out of Fake Paul.
It's your choice. I really think it's up to you.
Is this an arrangement that's gonna happen on Saturday night
(16:47):
or is it a real fight? Because if it's a
real fight, I expect you to beat the shit out
of Jake Paul within three rounds. If this is a date,
if this is an arrangement that's happening on Netflix this weekend,
then we're gonna just be dancing again, square dancing again,
chat chat, chaying again, Samba the bus, stop the hustle.
(17:13):
It's on you, Anthony, Johnny. It's not on you Fake Paul,
because you're not a real fighter. You're an LA Fitness guy.
You're an LA Fitness guy who somehow has meandered his
way into boxing. So I'm gonna say about it, Joshua Anthony, Joshua,
it is on you, ah man. You know, the amount
(17:40):
of bad news that took place this weekend.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
Was one for the books.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
And obviously I'm gonna get to what happened in Australia
at Bondi Beach. But to have the next day with
this Rob Reiner terrible terrible story. To wake up two
days in a row with just such horrible shocking news.
Rob Reiner, as everybody knows now, and his wife were
(18:10):
murdered by their son, which is so far out in
such a violent way. Apparently allegedly they were had their
throats slit by their son, and it's just shocking. And
Rob Reiner, i mean Rob Reiner was on the Iron
(18:34):
Rapp Poer Stereo Pockets is one of the best episodes
because Rob ryaner so charismatic, so nice, so giving, so genuine,
so humble. The episode that he did with me, in
all his interviews, he he just was just just like
I never met Rob Bryan, but he's just such a
(18:55):
nice person. The only time I met Rob Briner was
when he was on the Iron Rapp Poor Stereo podcast.
And like I said, it's in a great, great episode
and it's episode one thy and seventy two, and we
were talking about so many things, and he was just
so generous with his time and so generous with his stories,
and some of the things I had heard him talk
about before, some of the things he had never I
(19:16):
had never heard him talk about.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
But you know, what a career. First of all, to
see him in All.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
In the Family as Meathead, and to play this character
of Meathead who was so open and you know, thoughtful
in this you know, sort of lefty, you know.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
Thinker in that show.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
And you know, I don't agree with all the things
that you know, he was talking about politically, but I
mean you could tell he was just a good guy,
a loved guy, and a talented guy. And his father
and you know what his father accomplished, and it's just
such a.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
Man, what a what a shocking, surprising story that is.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
But to just talk about the greatness of Rob Reiner again,
when he started out as an actor in All the
Family playing Meathead, which is a part of my childhood,
you know, Carol O'Connor and All in the Family and
those characters and Edith and Archie Bunker and Meathead and
and all those iconic moments that was like must must
(20:29):
watch TV. And when you see the clips there's still
as poignant and as entertaining and as funny and sometimes
heartwarming and dramatic to this day. But as a director,
you know, man, what a career When Harry Mitsally might
be one of the best movies ever made.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
Like my wife.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
Considers when Harry mit Sally her favorite movie, that's an
incredible movie. In Misery and a Few Good Men and
stand By Me, and of course I mean Spinal Tap
is fucking game changing, such a unique, weird, creative way
to tell a story way ahead of its time, way
(21:12):
back in nineteen eighty four. And the performances that he
got out of his actors, all the guys in Spinal Tap,
all the kids in stand By Me, when Harry met Sally,
Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan, They've never ever, ever, ever
been better. And Misery, the resurgence of James Cohn, the
(21:33):
discovery of Kathy Bates and telling that story. Fuck, what
a tragic, terrible, scary, frightening, horrible, horrible story this turned
into from somebody that brought so much joy those films,
Spinal Tamp, stand By Me, when Harry met Sally Misery
(21:57):
A Few good Men. They're so entertaining and they're so joyful,
and that's a reflection of who Rob Reiner was. And
it's just a tragic, tragic story. And like I said,
you know, we had the privilege of having him on
(22:17):
the Pockets and it's one of the best episodes I've
ever done because of him, because of who he is
and what he did, you know, as a person, And
like I said, it reflected in his work and the
joy and the sweetness.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
And the.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
I don't know, just.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
The there's a sensibility about Rob Reiner that it was
reflected in even in the dramas that he directed, like
a Few good Men, But there's just a joyfulness. A
joyfulness is really the only way you could put it.
When you think about when Harry met Sally and stand
by Me in Spinal Tap. They're so fun and they're
so sweet, and they're so endearing and so entertaining, and
(22:59):
you should a solonly listen to Rob Reiner. Here's a
clip of me and Rob Reiner that I want to
share with you.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
Guys.
Speaker 3 (23:07):
No, I think a lot about you know, how many
more productive years I will have you know, and right
now I'm firing on a lot of cylinders. I got
a documentary out, I got it. I've actually produced another
documentary about Christian nationalism and the danger it is to
our country and to Christianity, and that's, you know, coming
(23:28):
out next year. And I've got this JFK podcast and
we're talking about, you know, like I said, we're going
to do a sequel.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
To Spot on STP.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
So I got a lot of things that I'm doing,
and I think about a lot about how many more
years can I do stuff? And I look at Clint
Eastwood and he was ninety whatever. But you know, I
just like doing this stuff, and I try to find
things that resonate with me in the theatrical area. I
try to find things that I can put all of
(23:57):
what I've learned at this point, or all of what
I think about into a project and find a way
of making it entertaining and all of that. So I
have a few things that I still want to do,
and I just hope, you know, like you say, until
the wheels come off, until somebody says, you know, you
can't do this anymore, I want to keep going.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
Yeah again, that's episode Oney seventy two.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
I'm going to re release it. And we talked about,
you know, him working on Wolf of Wallstreet.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
You know what it was like being an actor, you know,
and then you know, being directed by Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio. Anyway, tragic, tragic,
tragic story to be murdered by your own child. And
obviously the child had some mental health issues and some
you know, some addiction issues, but fuck man, that's I
(24:49):
can't even imagine the rest of his family because there's
two other kids, and just what a horrible, horrible story
for somebody that brought so much joy to the with
his work and his spirit and just who he was
as a person. Just a sad, sad story, the Rob
Reiner situation. And of course, the other terrible news out
(25:26):
of the last few days was what happened in Australia
at Bondi Beach, where the death toll is now sixteen
people and so many people have been injured at a
Hanika party in Australia.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
You already know what happened. I don't need.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
To share the news. Everybody knows what happened. And I
woke up Saturday, no Sunday morning, and.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
My wife. She didn't, she didn't look at her phone yet.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
She was just you know, I got up before her
and I saw that news, and I was so.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
Scared to tell her.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
I didn't want to tell my wife because I know
that it's just how much fucking bad news do you
want to share? And it was just horrible, horrible, terrible situation.
And you know, it's kids, Holocaust survivor. Rabbis were shot
(26:33):
in cold blood. And obviously there was a hero. Some
saying that he's Christian. I'm saying, it doesn't matter what
he is. This is a fucking hero that stepped in
and saved more lives. And as I mentioned earlier, I'm
one of these people that keep saying I'm surprised. There's
(26:56):
other Jewish people, other people in the Jewish community, they
are saying they're surprised. I keep saying I am surprised.
My wife says she's not surprised. Other people say they
are surprised. I'm always surprised by something like this happening.
I'm always surprised by the worst of it and the
(27:16):
least of it. I'm still maybe I'm just stupid, maybe
I'm hopeful, maybe I'm optimistic, maybe I'm in denial, maybe
I'm too fucking hard headed, but I'm surprised when something
like what happened in Australia happens. I'm surprised when a
synagogue a few weeks ago on the Upper East Side
(27:38):
of Manhattan is protested and motherfuckers are outside the synagogue
in my neighborhood where I grew up, Like I love
New York City, the Upper east Side, That's where I
grew up, and you're protesting and screaming outside of synagogue
in twenty twenty five. To globalize the Intefada, Well, the
(28:03):
Intafada has been globalized. And I've said this once, I've
said this twice, I've said it six thousand times on
this podcast. I've said it so many times on social media.
Globalization of the Intefada is the call for violence against
anyone who is not a radical gi Hodtist. That means you,
(28:24):
because I'm sure there are no radical gi Hotis watching
this podcast. So if you are Christian, if you are
a Muslim, if you are black, LGBTQ, if you are Jewish,
if you are anything that is not radical g hottiest
when you hear somebody say globalization of the Intafada, globalize
(28:47):
the indefada out in the open. They are calling for
your death right now. The Jews are the appetizer. The
Jews are the sexy, acceptable, the last deceptible group of
people that you could openly harass, openly curse that, openly shoot,
kill and nobody. I don't want to say nobody, because
(29:10):
I know there's good people. I've gotten hit up by
some some good people that aren't Jewish, But the majority
of people are turning there, turning away and acting like
this isn't happening. And I don't know if all the
victims of this Bondi attack, this terrorist attack, were Jews,
(29:31):
it doesn't matter. It shouldn't this shouldn't be acceptable. And
the rhetoric that has been going on that has been
amped up since October seventh, and even before that, I'm
thinking about, like all the Jews will not replace us
in Charlottesville, and the Kanye West is and last week
(29:54):
I'm talking about, you know, just cavalier comments from Shannon
Sharp and Chadoak Choe Sink. Well, not that they're responsible
for what happened, but just this acceptable.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
Rhetoric, disdain with no thought.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
To dehumanize Jewish people and then say that has something
to do with Israel, But it really just has to
do with Jews, because when you talk about Israel, you're
not talking about specific people. You're not talking about bb
Net and yah who. You're not talking about a specific
person in the government. You're not talking about a former,
specific person in the government. So when you talk about Israel,
(30:36):
are you talking about the ninety one year old Holocaust
survivor who had nowhere else to go in Israel? Are
you talking about the Syrian Jews whose family was expelled
in Israel? Because you're saying Israel, who are you talking about?
You're talking about the Iranian Jews? Are you talking about
(30:56):
the Christian community in Israel're talking about the Ethiopian Jews
in Israel?
Speaker 2 (31:02):
Who are you talking about? Israel is a place.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
I'm so sick and tired of going over this shit
and fighting and defending, and I'm sick and tired. I
don't understand what we've got into a place in twenty
twenty five where it's acceptable to dehumanize, shoot kill, call
for the globalization of the Interivada, call for the violence
against Jews out in the open publicly. This shit would
(31:29):
not be accepted for any other group of people, cat people,
dog people, short people, tall people, learning, disabled people, gay people,
trans people, black people, Asian people, Spanish people only Jews.
Can you go outside and say globalize the indefada.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
And you got a fucking.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
Guy who's going to be the mayor of the greatest
city on Earth who will make excuse after excuse that
kind of language is used. You got motherfuckers like Candice
Owens and Theo Vaughn and this has signed Piker and
every other motherfucker, Tucker Carlson and so forth, and so
(32:12):
on and so forth, and Miss Rachel and the listens
goes on and on and on and on and on.
Where people think they could say, not think they do.
They know they can say whatever the fuck they want
about Jewish people, veil it in this idea that it's Israel,
but not be specific about anything that they're upset about
(32:33):
complaining about against Israel, except for they don't think that
Israel has the right to exist.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
Well, Israel is going to exist.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
Jewish people are gonna continue to thrive, gonna continue to
shine light, and nobody's backing the fuck down from this shit.
It is a frightening time to be Jewish. It is
a frightening time to be a Zionist. And I remind you,
dumb dumbs in the back Zionists simply means you believe
(33:06):
that Israel has the right to exist. Period. Zoramadami doesn't
think that Israel has the right to exist. He doesn't
like the rules that Israel is existing with these anti Zionists,
anti Jewish motherfuckers, this rhetoric, this crazy fucking time.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
I don't know how we got here. I don't know
how it became so acceptable.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
I don't know how we've gotten to a point where
when I in New York City go to a Hanukkah event,
we have to be thinking.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
About like escape routes and shit in New York.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
I don't know how we've gotten to a point where
I can look on social media and see dumb, dumb
actors and actresses wearing T shirts. I say, globalize the
in defilers. You're calling for the death and the violence
against yourself, you dumb fuck. It ain't just Jews, but
I feel like I'm beating my head against the fucking
wall here. And there's been so much violence, so much
(34:11):
anti Semitism out in the open and it's just continuing
to get worse and worse. And again, I am surprised
when the shit happens. I am surprised when I see
videos of men screaming at women in restaurants about your
Zionist this and calling them all kinds of I'm baffled
by it. I'm surprised by I don't know, maybe I
(34:33):
grew up in a bubble, But to the Jewish people
that are listening, and I hope there are so many
Jewish people that are listening, you gotta be in it
to win it.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
It's Hanukah.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Light your candles, rap your to filling, read Torah, be loud,
be proud. Do not let this fear overwhelm you. Do
not let this fear overwhelm us as community. When you
see other Jewish people at the coffee shop, see the
Jewish people on the bus, see the Jewish people on
the street, give them a head nod, give him a smile.
(35:10):
We got to stick together, and we got to continue
to stay loud. We got to continue to stay proud,
We got to continue to participate. One of the best
things I ever heard from a rabbi, he said to me,
being Jewish is a participation sport. You have to be
in it to win it, however, whatever that means. But
I'll tell you one thing, if these motherfuckers are coming,
(35:33):
they're not asking your views on Israel.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
They're not asking you your views on any of that shit.
Speaker 1 (35:40):
If this terrorism continues, if this anti Jewish violence continues,
if this anti Jewish rhetoric continues, they're not asking questions.
There's no getting out of being Jewish, there's no escaping it.
So lean into and be prouder, be louder, and more
involved because unfortunately, unfortunately, I feel like it's only gonna
(36:05):
get worse. I feel like it's only going to get worse.
And I'm not a fear monger, but when you continue
to see event after event, and after terrorist attack after
terrorist attack, and then attempted terrorist attack after terrorist attack,
get thwarted by the FBI, and protest after protest and
(36:27):
celebration after celebration, when violence happens only with Jewish people,
is that acceptable? And fuck all that Zion is shit
and so it's about Israel bullshit, bullshit. So stay loud,
stay proud, and stay super duper involved as a Jewish
(36:48):
person and in your Jewish commedity now more than ever.
It's hanikah, it's fucking honikah. Have a good one, to
have a safe one, tell a friend who's telling friend
about the I Am Rapports Stereo podcast, Miles, George.

Zura Madami doesn't think that Israel has the right to exist.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
He doesn't like the rules that.
Speaker 1 (00:06):
Israel is existing with these anti Zionists, anti Jewish motherfuckers,
this rhetoric, this crazy fucking time.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
I don't know how we got here. I don't know
how it.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
Became so acceptable. I don't know how we've gotten to
a point where when I in New York City go
to a Hanukkah event, we have to be thinking about.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
Like escape routes and shit in New York. I don't
know how.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
We've gotten to a point where I can look on
social media and see dumb, dumb actors and actresses wearing
T shirts. I say, globalize the in defailer, You're calling
for the death and the violence against yourself, you dumb fuck.
It ain't just Jews, but I feel like I'm beating
my head against the fucking wall here, and there's been
so much violence, so much anti sematism out in the open,
(01:02):
and it's just continuing to get worse and worse. Boom

and forth because it's fucking cold out, and I know
(02:54):
there's way more important, interesting, exciting thing to discuss then
the weather in New York. But it's like the seventies

years in December, me and my barber Eric decipher because
(03:15):
I got a fresh cut. You see the cut. You
see my haircut, right, you see me looking good on
the yarn. The last few years, December was like nothing.

Speaker 2 (03:44):

(04:10):
shit outside because it is very, very cold out. It
was outside last night at a Hanukah event.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Get to all.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
The anti jewishness that's going on. But my wife and
I co host of the hit podcast rap Ports Reality
If you've never listened to rap a Ports Realities, where
me and my wife break down all things reality TV,
and it is an incredible time in reality TV right now.
(04:42):
It is an amazing time in the world of reality
TV right now. But my wife and I have a
podcast we drop like clockwork every single week Wednesdays, where
we talk all things reality TV, a few things pop culture,
and of course some gem from the inside inside walls
(05:05):
of what it's like being married to me. And it
ain't no cakewalk. I can tell you that it ain't
a fucking cakewalk. My wife is a saint. What was
I talking about? Oh yeah, because we were outside after
sun after it had snowed the other day in New
York it was ice. I didn't have my boots on.
I was slip sliding away and.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
I was like, what the fuck? And she was like, oh,
you're supposed to be miss new York. And I said,
I am missed new York.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
And she said, well, you, mister new York supposed to
know when there's ice on the streets. And I said,
I am not prepared for this. I'd have no hat on,
I'd have no gloves on. I was fucking slipping all
over the place. I was afraid I was gonna fall down. Listen,
you come to New York, bring some boots, Timberland boots,
(05:51):
some round boots, North faced boots, whatever the Bring some
construction boots. Bring something I don't hear about, Yo, Mike
rap coming to New York. If you are coming to
New York, don't call me up for no pizza suggestions,
no places to chill suggestions.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
If you're not coming to New York with some boots.
First and foremost, bring some.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
Boots, Bring a hat, some mittens, maybe some ear muffs.
Because it's it's like that. It's like that, and when
the sun goes down, it is like that. How did
I get into that? But the knicks Jalen Brunson is
the best American player in the NBA. I'll say it again,
(06:33):
Jalen Brunson is the best American born player in the NBA. Obviously,
his career is in his greatest Steph Curry, Kevin Durant,
Lebron James, and so forth and so on, but currently
right now in the NBA of the young guns, Jalen
Brunson is the best American born player in the NBA.
Speaker 2 (06:54):
And his stock and his status is rising.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
He is a born score, a natural born leader and understated,
I mean, you can't stop this fucking guy, the little fundamental.
There's not a lot of shimmy in his game. There's
not a lot of you know, Chris Crossing. He's got
some shit, but it's not like Kyrie Irving shit. It's
(07:19):
not like Steph Curry shit, it's not like Chris Paul like,
you know, ankle breaking shit. He's got some shit. But man,
he is fun to watch. And the Nicks. Listen, if
they win this Cup tonight, they're playing against San Antonio
(07:43):
and Wemby. They're playing for this cup tonight. If they
win this cup, I say we throw a mini parade.
I'm not saying like go around the five Burroughs. But
I'm saying, like a mini something something around the garden.
Like we go from the garden, we go to like
fourteenth Street, we come up forty deuce and we make
a lap something like that. We need it bad in
(08:06):
New York for the Knicks because we've been through so much.
Obviously the history is not great. It's exciting. We have
something to look forward to. But if we win this.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Cup, fuck it. I say raise a flag and do
a little mini parade.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Fourteenth to forty second Street, down ninth Avenue, come back up,
you know, seventh Avenue, loop around, come back down sixth
on forty second Street. Boom, a little mini parade for
the New York Nicks. Okay, I'm not saying go down
(08:44):
fifth Avenue. I'm not saying take it, you know, five burrows,
but just a little something something. It'd be nice to
raise a banner because if you go to the garden
and you look at the banners that we have up them,
shits are falling apart. They are falling parts. And the
NFL is cooking, the NBA is cooking, and like I said,
(09:08):
Wemby he's back. Hopefully he'll stay healthy. You need Wemby.
You need Wemby, you need all the stars you can get.
Despite the fact that Lebron James at fifty two years old,
Lebron Jays fifty one or fifty two years old, is
I'm not gonna sit here and not enjoy the last
(09:29):
couple of years. It might be five The motherfucker might
play five more years. It might be three years, it
might be two years. But I Am not gonna sit
here and not enjoy a fifty one year old Lebron
James in his last few years. He is doing things
this year with the Lakers. I'm bugging out off of
this guy like everybody else. Like he loves to play.
(09:54):
You can say this about him, you can say that
about him. I've said it all about him. But he
loves to play good basketball and he still has that
joy when he's out on the court. Lebron James, say
what you want about him. He's never said I've lost
my joy for the game. Jimmy Butler said he lost
his joy for the game. John Morant his joy is
gone for the game. Lebron James in his twenty ninth
(10:17):
year in the NBA. Again, I've said everything about him,
but he enjoys playing the game. He competes, he doesn't
cheat the game. He's not a cheap shot artist. He's
got bums. And I say that with all due respect,
because Dylan Brooks is not a bum, but he's got bums.
Like Dylan Brooks, cheap shot in him talking shit to him.
You never see him get completely out of character and
(10:38):
go and make a fool of himself.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
He just stays within his mode.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
He dunks on you, he runs back, he hustles back,
he blah fifty one. So I'm enjoying that. I'm enjoying
the NFL season. I got to give a shout out
to Hall of Famer CC Sabbathia. This is one of
my favorite guys to compete against a fantasy football. I'm
in a league with CC Sabathia, amongst others, Joe Button
(11:05):
amongst others.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
But I took down Hall of Famer C. C.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Sabathia in my first week of fantasy football playoffs, and
I told him, I said, CC, I'm throwing the pitches
high and tight, and sometimes I got control of these puppies.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
Sometimes I don't.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
I suggest this weekend a fantasy football you were a
batting helmet. I'm not saying I'm going at your head.
I'm not saying that I'm trying to intentionally hit you.
I'm just saying I'm like Charlie Sheen. I'm wild thing
in that shit. I'm like Charlie Sheen and major league.
(11:50):
Sometimes I lose control of it. And you got a duck,
And sure enough, I made C. C. Sabathia, a gentleman,
a hall of famer. I made him duck all weekend long,
and I beat his ass in my fantasy football playoff.
(12:11):
And now I'm about to go with somebody else. I
don't want to bore you with that, but he is
a hall of famer. I had to mention that I
beat CC Sabathia, had him duck in running for cover
out of the batter's box.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
All weekend long.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
And it was a rough, rough weekend of injuries, obviously,
with my homeboy getting injured, Michael Parsons getting injured. There's
been terrible, terrible injuries. We had a great story. They
didn't win, but he played. He didn't play great, but
he was out there. Philip Rivers was out there playing.
(12:50):
That was exciting. Jamis Williamson, my guy, played his ass
off DeAndre Swift of the Chicago Bears. My guy played
his ass off, My kicker Fairburn played his ass off.
And you know, the NFL is it's happening. The NFL
(13:11):
is happening, the NBA is happening. They're both fantastic, despite
the fact that the NFC South this is an embarrassment
the Buccaneers and embarrassment the Panthers of both of you
guys losing to bottom feeders. You play each other twice
down the stretch, figure it out, and the playoffs before
(13:34):
we know what, we're gonna be watching Christmas Day basketball
and NFL playoff football, and hopefully wherever you're watching those
games it's warmer than it is here in New York City.
(14:02):
I'm gonna do it again. I'm gonna do it one
mo time. Jake Paul is fighting Anthony Joshua. Anthony Joshua
is a heavyweight. Jake Paul is a non boxer, Anthony Joshua,
(14:25):
I'm gonna tell you once again, nobody outside of boxing
knows who you are, Okay, I said this before people
look up up in the UK.
Speaker 2 (14:35):
Everybody knows about the Anthony Joshua.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Nobody outside of boxing knows who you are, Anthony Joshua,
your legacy is on the line. If you do not
beat the shit out of Jake Paul, your legacy will
(14:59):
be tarnished forever.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Your legacy isn't that great. You've had a good career.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
But if you cannot beat the shit out of Jake Paul,
or you do not commit to beating the shit out
of Jake Paul this coming weekend, your legacy. All the
hard hours of sparring, training, heavy bag, speed bag, roadwork,
(15:24):
every single thing that you've put into your career, all
the dieting, all the jumping rope, all the mint work,
all the punches you've taken, all the commitment you have
given if you cannot beat Jake Paul convincingly and or
(15:45):
knockout Jake Paul, who is not a real boxer. I'm
watching Jake Paul. Why you posting videos of you hitting
a heavy bag? You need me to post videos of me.
I do the same shit that you're doing hitting a
heavy bag, and I'm fifty five years old old. Jake Paul,
You're not impressing any more. You're hitting a fucking heavy bag.
(16:05):
I go to Alle Fitness, I see guys that look
exactly like and you're posting that like your Sugarne Leonard.
Go fuk about you hitting a heavy bag, Anthony Joshua.
You're bigger than fake Paul. You're more experienced than Fake Paul.
(16:25):
Do you want to go down as a guy who
participated in an arranged fight with Fake Paul? Or do
you want to go down as a worldwide hero as
the guy who beat the shit out of Fake Paul.
It's your choice. I really think it's up to you.
Is this an arrangement that's gonna happen on Saturday night
(16:47):
or is it a real fight? Because if it's a
real fight, I expect you to beat the shit out
of Jake Paul within three rounds. If this is a date,
if this is an arrangement that's happening on Netflix this weekend,
then we're gonna just be dancing again, square dancing again,
chat chat, chaying again, Samba the bus, stop the hustle.
(17:13):
It's on you, Anthony, Johnny. It's not on you Fake Paul,
because you're not a real fighter. You're an LA Fitness guy.
You're an LA Fitness guy who somehow has meandered his
way into boxing. So I'm gonna say about it, Joshua Anthony, Joshua,
it is on you, ah man. You know, the amount
(17:40):
of bad news that took place this weekend.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
Was one for the books.
Speaker 1 (17:48):
And obviously I'm gonna get to what happened in Australia
at Bondi Beach. But to have the next day with
this Rob Reiner terrible terrible story. To wake up two
days in a row with just such horrible shocking news.
Rob Reiner, as everybody knows now, and his wife were
(18:10):
murdered by their son, which is so far out in
such a violent way. Apparently allegedly they were had their
throats slit by their son, and it's just shocking. And
Rob Reiner, i mean Rob Reiner was on the Iron
(18:34):
Rapp Poer Stereo Pockets is one of the best episodes
because Rob ryaner so charismatic, so nice, so giving, so genuine,
so humble. The episode that he did with me, in
all his interviews, he he just was just just like
I never met Rob Bryan, but he's just such a
(18:55):
nice person. The only time I met Rob Briner was
when he was on the Iron Rapp Poor Stereo podcast.
And like I said, it's in a great, great episode
and it's episode one thy and seventy two, and we
were talking about so many things, and he was just
so generous with his time and so generous with his stories,
and some of the things I had heard him talk
about before, some of the things he had never I
(19:16):
had never heard him talk about.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
But you know, what a career. First of all, to
see him in All.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
In the Family as Meathead, and to play this character
of Meathead who was so open and you know, thoughtful
in this you know, sort of lefty, you know.
Speaker 2 (19:36):
Thinker in that show.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
And you know, I don't agree with all the things
that you know, he was talking about politically, but I
mean you could tell he was just a good guy,
a loved guy, and a talented guy. And his father
and you know what his father accomplished, and it's just
such a.
Speaker 2 (19:59):
Man, what a what a shocking, surprising story that is.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
But to just talk about the greatness of Rob Reiner again,
when he started out as an actor in All the
Family playing Meathead, which is a part of my childhood,
you know, Carol O'Connor and All in the Family and
those characters and Edith and Archie Bunker and Meathead and
and all those iconic moments that was like must must
(20:29):
watch TV. And when you see the clips there's still
as poignant and as entertaining and as funny and sometimes
heartwarming and dramatic to this day. But as a director,
you know, man, what a career When Harry Mitsally might
be one of the best movies ever made.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
Like my wife.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
Considers when Harry mit Sally her favorite movie, that's an
incredible movie. In Misery and a Few Good Men and
stand By Me, and of course I mean Spinal Tap
is fucking game changing, such a unique, weird, creative way
to tell a story way ahead of its time, way
(21:12):
back in nineteen eighty four. And the performances that he
got out of his actors, all the guys in Spinal Tap,
all the kids in stand By Me, when Harry met Sally,
Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan, They've never ever, ever, ever
been better. And Misery, the resurgence of James Cohn, the
(21:33):
discovery of Kathy Bates and telling that story. Fuck, what
a tragic, terrible, scary, frightening, horrible, horrible story this turned
into from somebody that brought so much joy those films,
Spinal Tamp, stand By Me, when Harry met Sally Misery
(21:57):
A Few good Men. They're so entertaining and they're so joyful,
and that's a reflection of who Rob Reiner was. And
it's just a tragic, tragic story. And like I said,
you know, we had the privilege of having him on
(22:17):
the Pockets and it's one of the best episodes I've
ever done because of him, because of who he is
and what he did, you know, as a person, And
like I said, it reflected in his work and the
joy and the sweetness.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
And the.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
I don't know, just.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
The there's a sensibility about Rob Reiner that it was
reflected in even in the dramas that he directed, like
a Few good Men, But there's just a joyfulness. A
joyfulness is really the only way you could put it.
When you think about when Harry met Sally and stand
by Me in Spinal Tap. They're so fun and they're
so sweet, and they're so endearing and so entertaining, and
(22:59):
you should a solonly listen to Rob Reiner. Here's a
clip of me and Rob Reiner that I want to
share with you.
Speaker 2 (23:06):
Guys.
Speaker 3 (23:07):
No, I think a lot about you know, how many
more productive years I will have you know, and right
now I'm firing on a lot of cylinders. I got
a documentary out, I got it. I've actually produced another
documentary about Christian nationalism and the danger it is to
our country and to Christianity, and that's, you know, coming
(23:28):
out next year. And I've got this JFK podcast and
we're talking about, you know, like I said, we're going
to do a sequel.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
To Spot on STP.
Speaker 3 (23:34):
So I got a lot of things that I'm doing,
and I think about a lot about how many more
years can I do stuff? And I look at Clint
Eastwood and he was ninety whatever. But you know, I
just like doing this stuff, and I try to find
things that resonate with me in the theatrical area. I
try to find things that I can put all of
(23:57):
what I've learned at this point, or all of what
I think about into a project and find a way
of making it entertaining and all of that. So I
have a few things that I still want to do,
and I just hope, you know, like you say, until
the wheels come off, until somebody says, you know, you
can't do this anymore, I want to keep going.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
Yeah again, that's episode Oney seventy two.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
I'm going to re release it. And we talked about,
you know, him working on Wolf of Wallstreet.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
You know what it was like being an actor, you know,
and then you know, being directed by Scorsese and Leonardo DiCaprio. Anyway, tragic, tragic,
tragic story to be murdered by your own child. And
obviously the child had some mental health issues and some
you know, some addiction issues, but fuck man, that's I
(24:49):
can't even imagine the rest of his family because there's
two other kids, and just what a horrible, horrible story
for somebody that brought so much joy to the with
his work and his spirit and just who he was
as a person. Just a sad, sad story, the Rob
Reiner situation. And of course, the other terrible news out
(25:26):
of the last few days was what happened in Australia
at Bondi Beach, where the death toll is now sixteen
people and so many people have been injured at a
Hanika party in Australia.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
You already know what happened. I don't need.
Speaker 1 (25:49):
To share the news. Everybody knows what happened. And I
woke up Saturday, no Sunday morning, and.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
My wife. She didn't, she didn't look at her phone yet.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
She was just you know, I got up before her
and I saw that news, and I was so.
Speaker 2 (26:12):
Scared to tell her.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
I didn't want to tell my wife because I know
that it's just how much fucking bad news do you
want to share? And it was just horrible, horrible, terrible situation.
And you know, it's kids, Holocaust survivor. Rabbis were shot
(26:33):
in cold blood. And obviously there was a hero. Some
saying that he's Christian. I'm saying, it doesn't matter what
he is. This is a fucking hero that stepped in
and saved more lives. And as I mentioned earlier, I'm
one of these people that keep saying I'm surprised. There's
(26:56):
other Jewish people, other people in the Jewish community, they
are saying they're surprised. I keep saying I am surprised.
My wife says she's not surprised. Other people say they
are surprised. I'm always surprised by something like this happening.
I'm always surprised by the worst of it and the
(27:16):
least of it. I'm still maybe I'm just stupid, maybe
I'm hopeful, maybe I'm optimistic, maybe I'm in denial, maybe
I'm too fucking hard headed, but I'm surprised when something
like what happened in Australia happens. I'm surprised when a
synagogue a few weeks ago on the Upper East Side
(27:38):
of Manhattan is protested and motherfuckers are outside the synagogue
in my neighborhood where I grew up, Like I love
New York City, the Upper east Side, That's where I
grew up, and you're protesting and screaming outside of synagogue
in twenty twenty five. To globalize the Intefada, Well, the
(28:03):
Intafada has been globalized. And I've said this once, I've
said this twice, I've said it six thousand times on
this podcast. I've said it so many times on social media.
Globalization of the Intefada is the call for violence against
anyone who is not a radical gi Hodtist. That means you,
(28:24):
because I'm sure there are no radical gi Hotis watching
this podcast. So if you are Christian, if you are
a Muslim, if you are black, LGBTQ, if you are Jewish,
if you are anything that is not radical g hottiest
when you hear somebody say globalization of the Intafada, globalize
(28:47):
the indefada out in the open. They are calling for
your death right now. The Jews are the appetizer. The
Jews are the sexy, acceptable, the last deceptible group of
people that you could openly harass, openly curse that, openly shoot,
kill and nobody. I don't want to say nobody, because
(29:10):
I know there's good people. I've gotten hit up by
some some good people that aren't Jewish, But the majority
of people are turning there, turning away and acting like
this isn't happening. And I don't know if all the
victims of this Bondi attack, this terrorist attack, were Jews,
(29:31):
it doesn't matter. It shouldn't this shouldn't be acceptable. And
the rhetoric that has been going on that has been
amped up since October seventh, and even before that, I'm
thinking about, like all the Jews will not replace us
in Charlottesville, and the Kanye West is and last week
(29:54):
I'm talking about, you know, just cavalier comments from Shannon
Sharp and Chadoak Choe Sink. Well, not that they're responsible
for what happened, but just this acceptable.
Speaker 2 (30:07):
Rhetoric, disdain with no thought.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
To dehumanize Jewish people and then say that has something
to do with Israel, But it really just has to
do with Jews, because when you talk about Israel, you're
not talking about specific people. You're not talking about bb
Net and yah who. You're not talking about a specific
person in the government. You're not talking about a former,
specific person in the government. So when you talk about Israel,
(30:36):
are you talking about the ninety one year old Holocaust
survivor who had nowhere else to go in Israel? Are
you talking about the Syrian Jews whose family was expelled
in Israel? Because you're saying Israel, who are you talking about?
You're talking about the Iranian Jews? Are you talking about
(30:56):
the Christian community in Israel're talking about the Ethiopian Jews
in Israel?
Speaker 2 (31:02):
Who are you talking about? Israel is a place.
Speaker 1 (31:06):
I'm so sick and tired of going over this shit
and fighting and defending, and I'm sick and tired. I
don't understand what we've got into a place in twenty
twenty five where it's acceptable to dehumanize, shoot kill, call
for the globalization of the Interivada, call for the violence
against Jews out in the open publicly. This shit would
(31:29):
not be accepted for any other group of people, cat people,
dog people, short people, tall people, learning, disabled people, gay people,
trans people, black people, Asian people, Spanish people only Jews.
Can you go outside and say globalize the indefada.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
And you got a fucking.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
Guy who's going to be the mayor of the greatest
city on Earth who will make excuse after excuse that
kind of language is used. You got motherfuckers like Candice
Owens and Theo Vaughn and this has signed Piker and
every other motherfucker, Tucker Carlson and so forth, and so
(32:12):
on and so forth, and Miss Rachel and the listens
goes on and on and on and on and on.
Where people think they could say, not think they do.
They know they can say whatever the fuck they want
about Jewish people, veil it in this idea that it's Israel,
but not be specific about anything that they're upset about
(32:33):
complaining about against Israel, except for they don't think that
Israel has the right to exist.
Speaker 2 (32:39):
Well, Israel is going to exist.
Speaker 1 (32:42):
Jewish people are gonna continue to thrive, gonna continue to
shine light, and nobody's backing the fuck down from this shit.
It is a frightening time to be Jewish. It is
a frightening time to be a Zionist. And I remind you,
dumb dumbs in the back Zionists simply means you believe
(33:06):
that Israel has the right to exist. Period. Zoramadami doesn't
think that Israel has the right to exist. He doesn't
like the rules that Israel is existing with these anti Zionists,
anti Jewish motherfuckers, this rhetoric, this crazy fucking time.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
I don't know how we got here. I don't know
how it became so acceptable.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
I don't know how we've gotten to a point where
when I in New York City go to a Hanukkah event,
we have to be thinking.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
About like escape routes and shit in New York.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
I don't know how we've gotten to a point where
I can look on social media and see dumb, dumb
actors and actresses wearing T shirts. I say, globalize the
in defilers. You're calling for the death and the violence
against yourself, you dumb fuck. It ain't just Jews, but
I feel like I'm beating my head against the fucking
wall here. And there's been so much violence, so much
(34:11):
anti Semitism out in the open and it's just continuing
to get worse and worse. And again, I am surprised
when the shit happens. I am surprised when I see
videos of men screaming at women in restaurants about your
Zionist this and calling them all kinds of I'm baffled
by it. I'm surprised by I don't know, maybe I
(34:33):
grew up in a bubble, But to the Jewish people
that are listening, and I hope there are so many
Jewish people that are listening, you gotta be in it
to win it.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
It's Hanukah.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
Light your candles, rap your to filling, read Torah, be loud,
be proud. Do not let this fear overwhelm you. Do
not let this fear overwhelm us as community. When you
see other Jewish people at the coffee shop, see the
Jewish people on the bus, see the Jewish people on
the street, give them a head nod, give him a smile.
(35:10):
We got to stick together, and we got to continue
to stay loud. We got to continue to stay proud,
We got to continue to participate. One of the best
things I ever heard from a rabbi, he said to me,
being Jewish is a participation sport. You have to be
in it to win it, however, whatever that means. But
I'll tell you one thing, if these motherfuckers are coming,
(35:33):
they're not asking your views on Israel.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
They're not asking you your views on any of that shit.
Speaker 1 (35:40):
If this terrorism continues, if this anti Jewish violence continues,
if this anti Jewish rhetoric continues, they're not asking questions.
There's no getting out of being Jewish, there's no escaping it.
So lean into and be prouder, be louder, and more
involved because unfortunately, unfortunately, I feel like it's only gonna
(36:05):
get worse. I feel like it's only going to get worse.
And I'm not a fear monger, but when you continue
to see event after event, and after terrorist attack after
terrorist attack, and then attempted terrorist attack after terrorist attack,
get thwarted by the FBI, and protest after protest and
(36:27):
celebration after celebration, when violence happens only with Jewish people,
is that acceptable? And fuck all that Zion is shit
and so it's about Israel bullshit, bullshit. So stay loud,
stay proud, and stay super duper involved as a Jewish
(36:48):
person and in your Jewish commedity now more than ever.
It's hanikah, it's fucking honikah. Have a good one, to
have a safe one, tell a friend who's telling friend
