Speaker 1 (00:04):
So it's on the side. What's up, Diamond? Hi? I
just asked if you were ready? You said yes and
then laughed, what's going on?
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (00:09):
I was are you ready for it? I was gonna
say that, and then it just yeah, you still got
it in there? Congratulations. I don't know. How was the
week for you? Uh eh?
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Why?
Speaker 1 (00:21):
Just because like I just was tired all week? And yeah,
because we're recovering from the plague that you brought to
the office. All right, okay? Oh oh, should we talk
about the plot? Twisty get his ass in here? Not
even there? He's there, He's not there, not there? Yeah,
what a loser? Andrew is the one. Does Danielle know this?
I told her yesterday and what she said? She said
(00:42):
what I didn't even know. I didn't even know. No,
it's not possible. I was like, no, let's do the time,
let's do the math and go back. We believe, due
to his own confession, that Andrew is actually the one
who brought the plague to the office. Yep, because he
has been coughing and hackening, gag in and you know,
Andy Kane just roams freely everywhere, goes and interacts with
(01:05):
everybody if somebody were going to spread a plague, it
would be him, and he admitted that early to mid April,
he got it, yep. Go a couple weeks from there,
we get it.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
Oh, but I feel so much better now.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
So I feel great, even though there are sometimes I'll
cough and it'll like it feels like I still want
to have a hearty cough inside of me, but it
doesn't come out like you don't hear it if I'm like,
you know, but.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
I'm just like, all right, let's get this over with. Well,
are you going to take me out? If so, enough
with the slow death knots and swift. Hell, I read
that near me is one of the most possible places
for a nuclear attack, Like if there was going to
be one, it would be right down the street from me,
(01:52):
And I was like, amazing, Yeah, you might as well
take you out quick and past. But what do I
want to be in some post apocalyptic world for? Just
make it quick, let's go. Yeah, I want to see
I think i'd be able to see. I mean, but
it's really close, so I don't know. Shit, My sister
does not appreciate this topic of conversation. Fine, the amount
of friends I have that have anxiety about where I live.
(02:13):
Is crazy? Why multiple reasons, One because you know, New
York City is just everything goes wrong in New York
everything all the time. And then two because I'm so
high up it makes a lot of people anxious about
you know, all kinds of stuff. Building collapses, fire on
floors below you. But if you know, something terrible happens
(02:34):
again and a plane where to hit the building halfway through,
like you're just up there, And I was like, eh, okay,
but you know what, I have a great.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
View, so yeah, but would you rather be on like
the second floor and the whole building collapses on top
of you and they never find your body?
Speaker 1 (02:47):
So, guys, I thought about this and I was pretty sure.
I'm like, you know, I'm so high up that if
there was a building collapse, I do feel like my
best odds are up there. This is such a dark conversation,
especially because o'b seeing some cracks and stuff in my
ceilings and doors, Like on the side, I'm like, what
is that? And the maintenance schedule like, well, it's just
a building settling that building? How much does it settle?
(03:09):
Because sometimes it's hard to open my door oh, I'm
the worst building management in the world. By the way,
they're the worst. Put them on blast, Iron State. Hate you.
Oh god, how didn't think you were. They're awful, Oh
my god, like truly the worst. I've been battling with
them for at this point, like two and a half
years about bullshit. There is always something wrong with my apartment.
(03:31):
You've been to it. Yeah, I love it. I love
my apartment. When I moved in, the apartment that I
looked at had a completely different floor than the apartment
that I live in. I feel like we've talked about
this before, but the floor that I have is that
hideous blonde wood. Nobody actually wants that. My friend is
a flooring specialist, and she looked at my floor and said,
what the fuck is this? Oh no, this looks like
(03:52):
they use scraps from other floors to put it together.
It's different colors in some places. Then they try to
piss on my leg and me it's raining by saying, oh,
it'll it'll fade with the sun. The more the sun
hits at the mortal fade. I was like, oh, it'll
only fade those one pieces, it won't fade the other
ones around it. Weird asked me if it has faded. No,
there are bubbles in the floor. And on top of that,
(04:14):
I'm air of the grievances. Okay. On top of that,
they have told me three different times they were gonna
come and fix it, and I've moved stuff around so
they could come fix it, and they don't fix it.
They just patch it with another shitty piece of floor. Nope, nope.
And I pay a lot of money to live in
that dumb ass apartment. Nope. Anyway, problems, I guess whatever.
Some on the what fire squad? That was Diamond, That
(04:35):
was not me? Okay, sorry, I just want to send
a bunch of people to be like you suck boo,
you suck. Fix it?
Speaker 2 (04:41):
No, you know what we got to bring back, like
the mobsters. Not we don't want to kill people, but
like them.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Yeah, like I want to. I want to.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
I want to see people get yoked up again, pull
them by the collar, right on the neck, and say
why on them?
Speaker 1 (04:56):
You you want mob That's like India. India has a
lot of mob justice. Like if somebody hit somebody else
in a ridiculous car accident, they'll yank someone out of
the car and just beat them good. Yeah, we need
to bring it back. People need there needs to be
like some type of fear.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
We don't fear consequences, the consequences of our actions anymore
because there.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Are no consequences like anything. Look at the administration, not
a consequence insight the Epstein files. Who's even talking about
them anymore? Really we are bringing up Epstein files. Epstein files,
don't forget, but yeah, no consequences there or.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
What is going on even down to like kids in
a store acting up. I want to see people get
their asses beat again. I wanted me too.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
I know you said you want to have a kid
just to terrorize that. I want to yoke them up.
You better stump. No, kids aren't scared of their parents anymore. Well,
I'm still scared of my parents, to be completely honest.
Same like, I do know that I'm the captain now.
But at the same time, Uh, sometimes my dad will
shoot me a look and I'm like, shit is shit shit?
Here we go.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
My dad got mad the other day, not at me,
but he was upset about something and I was like, ooh, PTSD,
you're bringing back I'm not seen you upset like this
in a long time.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Homeboy, I'm too old for this.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
But also eh, yep, and it's like, like I said,
it wasn't even directed toward me, but I still.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Like my hands got clammedy. I was like, Ooo, somebody's
gonna get it. You'll say this. As psychotic as my
parents are, and they're fucking crazy, they prepared me so
well for life because at this point I really don't
have any issues with conflict resolution or addressing things when
they come up. If people yell, it doesn't scare me
or intimidate me. They really did a good job of
(06:31):
scaring the shit out of me with everything they did that.
Now as an adult, I'm like, no, I'm good. Yeah,
Like it is fine, that's all right, this is a
regular day. Oh you're gonna yell about it? Okay, Okay,
happy for you, meet for deep Gandhi Whoo. That guy
would have steam coming out of his ears and the
entire house would suffer crazy greatest parents ever. Okay, So
there were a couple things we wanted to talk about.
(06:53):
We just mentioned Curtis Leiwa. Yeah, if you don't live
in this area, you might not know who he is.
He is maybe one of my favorite people in this
building right now, How do we explain Curtis he's unwell?
I tell everyone.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
I tell everyone that Curtis Leewa is who Donald Trump
thinks he is, and like his supporters.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Think that he is. That's why Donald Trump hates him, yes,
and vice versa.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
It's it's like this, no nonsense, tell it like it is.
That's so cliche. The older white man who's just like
fucking hilarious. He's hilarious, problematic opinions sometimes sometimes nothing.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Crazy, but like sometimes you're like, hey, whoa hey, he's
very open to discussion though he is. And I'm pretty
sure we're gonna find out because I asked him to
be on the podcast because that man cracks me up.
Every day he tells me he hates me for one
reason or another, and I find it hilarious. He ran
for mayor here, so it was Curtis Lee numerous times
this last cycle. Curtis, it was Andrew Cuomo, and it
(08:04):
was or Mumdani. Now we all know, Ma'm donni won. Yep.
People were begging Curtis to drop out of the race.
They were like, dude, you are going to make sure
that Mamdani wins. You are taking votes away from Andrew Cuomo.
The Republican Party was in sense, how could you do this, Curtis,
We won't get out of the race. He was like,
I'm not leaving. He stayed right there. You know what
(08:24):
he said, I'm voting for mom Donnie. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
He literally not only did he stay in the race,
but he voted, which is what made me feel like, oh, no,
you're hilarious.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
He's hilarious, really is. Every day he walks around here
in a red jacket and a red beret. And the
first day I met him, he said to me, let
me ask you something. Now we're family, would you take
a bullet from me? I said, absolutely? The fuck dot Now,
why would I do that? He laughed so hard. He said,
you're the only person that's actually said that's true. Because
(08:56):
he's been shot. By the way he's been shot, he's
been beaten up. The feel unlike him. He founded the
Guardian Angels. If you don't know who the Guardian Angels are, gone,
look it up. Look up a picture of Curtis Leewah
with the Guardian Angels. That man thirty cats and he
has a lot of cats. Weird, but he's on those people.
He doesn't just talk about it like he is about it.
I'm positive that however old he is, he's in his
(09:18):
seventies or something, right, Maybe I don't know. I don't
even to just be fifty and like had a hard life.
I don't know. But whatever is in his I don't know.
He's in his seventies, Okay, Okay, I think he can
still be anybody's ass in this building. No way. I
feel like the building is safer now that Curtis is
in here, despite the fact that everyone keeps coming for
and we've had protesters like psychol literally outside of this guy.
(09:39):
You think the building is safer? Yeah, I think. I
think he would fox some people up. I believe it.
He just seems like one of those people that's like
all scar tissue.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
You know that he's from like Brownsville, East New York.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
He's from your neighborhood, Diamonds.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
He's like we all know, scary notoriously talks about my neighborhood.
And he says in front of Curtis, Hey, Diamonds from
your area too. So Curtis says where he's from, and
I was like, oh shit, Curtis, hold on, I don't
even go over there.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
He's like, yeah, I know, I know. I'm like, okay, Curtis,
please please, Yeah. I like him. He's fucking funny. We're
gonna have him on this show. We'll see how it goes,
because I think he could just go off the rails,
which you know I'm here for that. Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
And I can't wait to tell him this. Somebody in
my immediate family voted for him.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Oh wow. So he's caused many arguments in my household.
He calls apparently many arguments in the city of New York,
in our buildings, arguments of our building. I love it.
I love it because he has he doesn't give a fuck. Right,
He'll come down here and he's like, what are you
going to feed me? Which I think is insane. By
(10:52):
the way, Curtis, please, okay. He hasn't fed us once
at all, and then when there's no food he decides
to complain, and I'm like, it was always useless anyway.
Long ask text messages about how we're trying to starve
him out, and he will not be defeated. It doesn't
matter if there's a Gandhi here or not. He's not
gonna be starved like he's fucking funny man. Anyway, expect
(11:15):
something when we have Curtisan what it's gonna be, but
expect something. And then he was talking about, you know,
I just there's a target on my back. Who's gonna
look out for me? And Elvis looked and and goes,
maybe if you didn't dress like that going everywhere, people
would recognize you his red ass jacket and red beret
mayor of the mayor something like that.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
I'm like, okay, all right, oh, this building is hilarious, man.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Every day there's something bizarro going on in here. So
the other day, remember how we were talking about how
sometimes people will respond to a text and then you
diemand to get shipped for it. Sometimes that happens a lot.
So I'm going to take full responsibility because it sort
of happened yesterday. But I immediately came in and told
you what happened. So I don't know what conversation we
(12:03):
were having, but something that I said triggered someone and
this person just wrote in Gandhi is a cunt. It
made me laugh so hard because it so matter of facts. True. Yeah, okay, cool, cool,
But also I don't like the intention behind it. It
wasn't that it wasn't a very hilarious text, because it was.
I took a picture of it, Oh God, and I
sent to some of my friends and they were like,
(12:25):
but yes, but of course, so I wrote back, aw,
now you're blocked, and I told you I want people
to know what's for me. But before I could block
them or her, I feel like, that's a dude. I
don't know why. Maybe uh this person wrote back eat
a dick diamond.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
Like damn, damn, you did nothing in that interaction, and
I was about to write back, it's not diamond, you
dumb fuck, but then they would have known that they
weren't blocked immediately.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
So I just blocked them, and then I blocked them
from the other other people's Now, whoever you are, you
cannot text us anymore. And then I came in. I
told diamond happened. I was like, just the heads up,
this is what happened.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
And also I want people to know that if you
ever get a county response, it's not from me, because
I don't know how to just be cunty.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
What I would say to you, Like if you said eat.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
A dig diamond and I actually responded, I would say
something about your mom and your grandmother and how they
should have done it so that you never existed.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
You know what I mean? I want it. I want it.
Let's go there. You know, but that's a cindsy response.
I wasn't even conte. I just said, oh, you're blocked. Yeah,
I don't know. And then also like, what if it
was Elvis saying that I would hunt? No, no no.
Responding to that, I was like, that's not out of
the realm of possibility. He has said it many times,
(13:43):
you loser. You know what, we got to bring back
what you bum? I love that you bum your crumb.
Suck an egg? Yes, yeah, eat my shorts that's a
good one. Okay, yep, because is disgusting, right, what of
the usual eating my shorts? Oh my god, you can
even chew? Yeah, disgusting. Not a not an organic fiber
(14:07):
involved there. Everything is man made thought very gross.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
You know, pants smell in the summer after, you know,
I'm scared for the summer this year.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
It's gonna be ridiculous. I'm terrible. I have a super
al Nino on the way, and everyone's just acting like
that's not a big fucking deal.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Oh, you need to talk to Deanna maybe Okay, she
just brought it up. It's freaking her out because the
super Bachelorette trip is coming, and she's like, plant something else.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
The rain's on the way. It's not even just rain,
it's like a whole system that just changes everything.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
The first thing she said to me this morning, she's like,
so you have a super al nino and the Haunta
virus and it's you know.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
It's my girl, What a time to be alive. Everyone's
just praying for death at this point, Yolo bring back
in ninety fives. I'm getting one.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
Oh god, because this is the thing with the hunter
virus that they're not talking about, Like they're saying that
you have to be in basically on top of somebody
to get it from them, right.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
But like, what does that mean? How close?
Speaker 2 (15:21):
If you and I are in a room like this
with the door closed, we could be on top of
each other.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Oh wait, we call around here for sure? What does
that mean? I'm not gonna lie. I'm not sure what
that means. I just think that there's, you know, some
weird thing happening on a cruise ship and maybe it's
fine to just leave that ship at sea just until
we figure it out. Well they didn't. They didn't. They
didn't answer your prayers. Okay, Like, are you not scared? Oh,
(15:46):
I'm sure those people are terrified. That has to be awful.
No you? Oh me? Yeah? Why because no, No, this isn't new.
The Hunter virus isn't something that's new. It's been around.
Gene Hackman's wife died of it in New Mexico, like
last year, thirty years ago, there was another little outbreak
of it. I'm really not concerned about this. I find
it interesting that we just have the release of these
(16:07):
alien UFO files. Now there's this new virus. Where are
the Epstein files. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
I just feel like I'm traumatized by COVID and the
fact that it wasn't a big deal then either, and
then a month later it was like everything was shut down.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
Yes, everything shut down. In retrospect, it probably was an overreaction,
But I also think had everyone just done what we
were supposed to do and advised to do, it would
have been stomped out much quicker. We would have learned
much faster. But there were too many, you know, varying
details involved in it that made it drag on for
(16:43):
as long as it did assholes, and now with this
secretary of health, we're not scared. I refuse to call
him that or health secretary. I'm not gonna call him
any of those things. I'm terrified. He's a crackhead. I
don't think he's really bringing anything. He wants to start
deprescribing antide presence. And here's the thing. An broken clock
is right, like twice a day. Right, He's gonna say
(17:06):
some things that do make sense. The vast majority of
what he's saying does not make sense. I don't understand.
It's like, it's like how we hire people around here.
It's not that anyone's actually qualified for what they're doing.
He just kind of looked around and you're like, Hey,
you're my friend, you should do this, like you're cool. Yeah,
I don't like you. You could figure it out. Today
(17:27):
he's fucking out here being gay with Kid Rock, working
out in jeans and sitting in a sauna. Like the
picture of health. Again, I say, if there was a
picture of unwellness, it would be the two of them
in their genes in the sauna.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
Oh God, p weird weird stuff, don't I don't even
want that visual.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
I think we were talking about this on the show
the other day. I find it fascinating that we're at
a point in time where they're literally releasing UFO files
and we're all like, yeah, anyway, Like wasn't there in
time that we all would have been like the fuck yeah?
Speaker 2 (17:55):
But a lot of people are like pretend like they're
not actually interesting. They pretend to be interested just for conversations,
like I'm not gonna lie, I'm not interested in UFOs.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Okay, you know good, Like.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
I'm telling somebody tell me, and let's hope that their
info is factual. And if I want to go dig
for more, then I'll dig for more. But like, there
are people who feel the same way I do, but
in conversations with other people who are excited about it.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
But yeah, you're not, just shut up what. I don't
care if you're interested in it or not. I'm very
interested in it. I just like with wild animals, I'm
pretty sure that the aliens would catch a good vibe
and we would get along well, oh god, and hopefully
they would take me with them, because wherever they came
from is clearly more sophisticated than we are here. Because
they figured out how to get to us and we
did not figure out how to get to them, or
(18:43):
did we, But either way, like I meant, I just
want to learn new things. Everyone gets scared of stuff
at first, and then they try to kill it and
eradicate it. But what if they're just here investigating. What
if we are their pet ant farm and they just
came down to be like at, listen to you assholes.
You're geting out of control, and we're gonna start doing
things to rain you back in if you don't get
(19:04):
your shit together. I just don't know what they have
to say. It's beyond raining in at this point, it
is I won't I refuse to fall victim to that.
I'm not gonna believe that there's no hope. I will
not believe it. That's what they want. They want everyone
to say, there's no hope, we give up, we quit.
I don't think so. What I do think is we're
on this march toward absolute government control of everything. Doing
(19:26):
away with cash is a crazy thought. Did you see
that Meta decided to unencrypt all of their dms, So
now it's much easier for them to look into everything
that you're doing. First of all, I would just be embarrassed.
I'm not a sham. No, I was gonna say, I'm
not ashamed. I would be very ashamed. If my teams
(19:48):
got out.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
They're already looking at him. That's why I'm like, is
this really news? They've already been looking at them. They
see everything.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
I think the difference is they have I had to
go through more steps to actually do it, whereas now
they can just do it. There was at least somewhat
of this feeling of like, hey, you know what, We're
gonna protect it a little bit. And now they're like,
fuck all, y'all, who are you talking about? What country?
What did you say about which president? Mmm? I just
wonder how that's gonna play out in the long run.
(20:20):
We're fucked regardless. There's a lot of fuckery going on.
And again, I say, my crazy ass dad called this
shit a decade ago, and my sister and I were like, hey,
crazy old man, don't make us lock you up. We
need to put him on a pedestal and paint him goal.
I won't because he still does Dumpston. We need a
statue of him. Literally, this is insane. Listen, this is
(20:41):
but this is the same guy that thought Apple Care
meant he could call Apple as many times as he
wanted you to ask questions. You know what, you know,
he's paying for it, That's what he said. So I
have Apple Care. I will call that good good for him,
good for him?
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Honestly literally, that's something that like I agree with what
that you call it? Your pay for apple Careya. They're
supposed to like fix things for you whatever. And if
I have a question, then must hope that you answer it.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
That's what he said. I told you what he called
them about, didn't I He thought he was left out
of a group chat, Yes, because he said there's only
three people in it. We were like, you're the fourth dude,
it's me, Mom and Priya, and you can't see you
because you're you. You're looking at it. What do you
mean you're left out? Anyway? Thank you Apple for patiently
(21:26):
dealing with my father on that one. Much appreciate they're
the best they are. I love my parents. I again,
I'm lucky to have them. Can we talk about something
I don't love that happened the other day? What you
Andrew and me went for a little stroll the other
day to grab coffee. You grabbed Starbucks, and Andrew and
I went to a different place. But you came into
(21:48):
that place with your Starbucks, and upon you setting foot
into that place, the lovely if I'm even gonna call him,
that little critter behind the counter said oh girl, no
sar Bucks like you had to get out of there.
And I said, oh, what's going on, at which point
he volunteered up, I used to work for Starbucks for
(22:10):
five years, and let me just tell you, Oh my god, girl, no,
they are the worst. Oh my god. I could go
on and on. I said, oh, so do it go on?
What did he say to me? First?
Speaker 2 (22:22):
He started off with I don't want to get into it,
but then you badgered him.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
I did not. I said, you brought it up. What
do you mean you don't want to get into it?
You just brought this up. And then he said playfully,
which I thought was like okay, But then he said
something about labor laws, and then he ended with and
just see where their money is going. And listen, people
(22:49):
say things all the time.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
I I don't join in with the boycotts if I
don't want to, you know, and Northern problem to make
me feel as if I need to, so when his
establishment start selling coconut milk because that's the only milk
that I can have.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
Ye, then maybe I'll go there over Starbucks.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Or like when black NFL players stop playing because of
the fact that people are boycotting for their benefit, then
I'll stop watching. But until then, I'm gonna keep watching.
When I walk into my target and there are only
white people working there, then maybe all boycott for black
(23:31):
rights and what do they call it?
Speaker 1 (23:34):
Diversity and inclusion? But I'm not doing that. Number one,
I don't want to. But number two, like, think about
these things.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Why would not boycott target based off of inclusion when
every person in.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
My local target is black? Why would I do that? Okay,
I was just talking about how annoying this man was.
Put something up. The larger dropped away from it.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
All of them are annoying because a lot of people
don't even understand what their boycotten. You're upset because I
went to Starbucks when everything you use.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
Boycotting is the only way to make a difference. It
truly is because nobody cares about what you do. Right,
it's not working because not everybody does it, because everybody
affects somebody else to do it.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
I'm not boycotting in the NFL when the money from
me viewing goes to these black players, that's stupid. I'm
not doing that. And this is how these people feed
their families. Okay, I'm not doing the same thing with Target.
Somebody's going to lose their job.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
I don't disagree with that, and I'm not telling you
what to boycott and not boycott, but I am saying
the one thing that actually works is boycotting. We've gotten
so lazy and comfortable that we won't do it because
it makes us have to struggle a little bit more.
If everybody actually stopped using Amazon, changes probably would be
made in some capacity. I mean, he's the one of
the richest men in the world, so he might not
(24:52):
care at all. But that is literally how India got
the British out of the country. They stopped buying their products,
they stopped using their things, and they started making it
all themselves. And once there was no economic gain anymore,
that's when they started to say, fuck, we gotta go.
You hit people where their pockets are. And that's the
only time they threw the tea into the harbor. Second
episode in a row, we're talking about this, they throw
(25:12):
it into the harbor. It does make a difference, but
people are too lazy and too comfortable to actually go
down this road and do it.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
Well, maybe if everyone did what I thought that we
should do to make a difference, then what.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
Do you think we should do.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
We should be voting for our best interest, absolutely so
if we're not doing that and we're mad about like
I just it doesn't make any sense to me.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
It doesn't make any sense. I get it from Afar,
but day to day, everyday, middle middle class life, I'm sorry,
I'm not Now I think voting is definitely important. I
have a little and I will always go out and
I will always vote. And you should vote in every election,
not just the big ones. The smaller ones are actually
a lot more important in a lot of ways. However,
now I have a little bit less faith in elections too,
(25:54):
because old Elon got a hold of voting machines, and
if he has anything to do with anything problem trusting
it. It doesn't mean I'm gonna stop doing it, but I'm
not sure that that's going to work as much anymore.
I don't think that going out into the streets and
protesting makes the difference that people think it makes I
think what that is about which I really appreciate, is
(26:15):
seeing that there are so many people who feel the
same way that you do, and feeling like you're not
alone and making a stink and making people look at you. Yeah,
I get that, but I don't think that actually affects
change as much as voting does, and as actually boycotting
and stop spending your money in places does. Stopping spending
your money in places does. Okay, you look pissed off.
It's irritating.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
And the reason why it's irritating is because why is
it that I am now the poster child of what's
wrong when there's so many other things that are wrong.
There are so many other people who are wrong everyday life.
We have a platform where we could be talking about
things all day long, and a lot of us don't
do it.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
Those people are wrong, you know, there's so much wrong.
I'm not just you like okay, and I do. I
do things that are wrong all the time. I have
an iPhone. That's a terrible thing to probably have, right.
They have kids working in factories who are being treated horribly,
and I have an iPhone. So I'm a hypocrite and
I am. What's wrong with that problem? I am the problem.
I am. I think all of us just have to
(27:17):
own it a little bit more and accept like, yes,
I am doing things that are problematic.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
I am.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
It doesn't mean you're a bad person. But if we
really wanted to make a difference, we could. We just don't.
So it's all of us. Yeah, okay, absolutely, it is
all of us. Whatever. All right, Well, I guess we're
gonna on the podcast there. If you want to follow
us on Instagram, follow at Sauce on the side, if
you want to follow me at Baby Hot Sauce, Diamond
(27:43):
at Diamond Sincere that's on Instagram and threads and x
and then of course like follow, subscribe, leave us a
talk bag, tell us your thoughts on any of this
stuff if you want to, or if you just want
to sell us as show the fuck up, please do
that as well, And until then, talk to you later.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
H
So it's on the side. What's up, Diamond? Hi? I
just asked if you were ready? You said yes and
then laughed, what's going on?
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (00:09):
I was are you ready for it? I was gonna
say that, and then it just yeah, you still got
it in there? Congratulations. I don't know. How was the
week for you? Uh eh?
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Why?
Speaker 1 (00:21):
Just because like I just was tired all week? And yeah,
because we're recovering from the plague that you brought to
the office. All right, okay? Oh oh, should we talk
about the plot? Twisty get his ass in here? Not
even there? He's there, He's not there, not there? Yeah,
what a loser? Andrew is the one. Does Danielle know this?
I told her yesterday and what she said? She said
(00:42):
what I didn't even know. I didn't even know. No,
it's not possible. I was like, no, let's do the time,
let's do the math and go back. We believe, due
to his own confession, that Andrew is actually the one
who brought the plague to the office. Yep, because he
has been coughing and hackening, gag in and you know,
Andy Kane just roams freely everywhere, goes and interacts with
(01:05):
everybody if somebody were going to spread a plague, it
would be him, and he admitted that early to mid April,
he got it, yep. Go a couple weeks from there,
we get it.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
Oh, but I feel so much better now.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
So I feel great, even though there are sometimes I'll
cough and it'll like it feels like I still want
to have a hearty cough inside of me, but it
doesn't come out like you don't hear it if I'm like,
you know, but.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
I'm just like, all right, let's get this over with. Well,
are you going to take me out? If so, enough
with the slow death knots and swift. Hell, I read
that near me is one of the most possible places
for a nuclear attack, Like if there was going to
be one, it would be right down the street from me,
(01:52):
And I was like, amazing, Yeah, you might as well
take you out quick and past. But what do I
want to be in some post apocalyptic world for? Just
make it quick, let's go. Yeah, I want to see
I think i'd be able to see. I mean, but
it's really close, so I don't know. Shit, My sister
does not appreciate this topic of conversation. Fine, the amount
of friends I have that have anxiety about where I live.
(02:13):
Is crazy? Why multiple reasons, One because you know, New
York City is just everything goes wrong in New York
everything all the time. And then two because I'm so
high up it makes a lot of people anxious about
you know, all kinds of stuff. Building collapses, fire on
floors below you. But if you know, something terrible happens
(02:34):
again and a plane where to hit the building halfway through,
like you're just up there, And I was like, eh, okay,
but you know what, I have a great.
Speaker 2 (02:41):
View, so yeah, but would you rather be on like
the second floor and the whole building collapses on top
of you and they never find your body?
Speaker 1 (02:47):
So, guys, I thought about this and I was pretty sure.
I'm like, you know, I'm so high up that if
there was a building collapse, I do feel like my
best odds are up there. This is such a dark conversation,
especially because o'b seeing some cracks and stuff in my
ceilings and doors, Like on the side, I'm like, what
is that? And the maintenance schedule like, well, it's just
a building settling that building? How much does it settle?
(03:09):
Because sometimes it's hard to open my door oh, I'm
the worst building management in the world. By the way,
they're the worst. Put them on blast, Iron State. Hate you.
Oh god, how didn't think you were. They're awful, Oh
my god, like truly the worst. I've been battling with
them for at this point, like two and a half
years about bullshit. There is always something wrong with my apartment.
(03:31):
You've been to it. Yeah, I love it. I love
my apartment. When I moved in, the apartment that I
looked at had a completely different floor than the apartment
that I live in. I feel like we've talked about
this before, but the floor that I have is that
hideous blonde wood. Nobody actually wants that. My friend is
a flooring specialist, and she looked at my floor and said,
what the fuck is this? Oh no, this looks like
(03:52):
they use scraps from other floors to put it together.
It's different colors in some places. Then they try to
piss on my leg and me it's raining by saying, oh,
it'll it'll fade with the sun. The more the sun
hits at the mortal fade. I was like, oh, it'll
only fade those one pieces, it won't fade the other
ones around it. Weird asked me if it has faded. No,
there are bubbles in the floor. And on top of that,
(04:14):
I'm air of the grievances. Okay. On top of that,
they have told me three different times they were gonna
come and fix it, and I've moved stuff around so
they could come fix it, and they don't fix it.
They just patch it with another shitty piece of floor. Nope, nope.
And I pay a lot of money to live in
that dumb ass apartment. Nope. Anyway, problems, I guess whatever.
Some on the what fire squad? That was Diamond, That
(04:35):
was not me? Okay, sorry, I just want to send
a bunch of people to be like you suck boo,
you suck. Fix it?
Speaker 2 (04:41):
No, you know what we got to bring back, like
the mobsters. Not we don't want to kill people, but
like them.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
Yeah, like I want to. I want to.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
I want to see people get yoked up again, pull
them by the collar, right on the neck, and say
why on them?
Speaker 1 (04:56):
You you want mob That's like India. India has a
lot of mob justice. Like if somebody hit somebody else
in a ridiculous car accident, they'll yank someone out of
the car and just beat them good. Yeah, we need
to bring it back. People need there needs to be
like some type of fear.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
We don't fear consequences, the consequences of our actions anymore
because there.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Are no consequences like anything. Look at the administration, not
a consequence insight the Epstein files. Who's even talking about
them anymore? Really we are bringing up Epstein files. Epstein files,
don't forget, but yeah, no consequences there or.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
What is going on even down to like kids in
a store acting up. I want to see people get
their asses beat again. I wanted me too.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
I know you said you want to have a kid
just to terrorize that. I want to yoke them up.
You better stump. No, kids aren't scared of their parents anymore. Well,
I'm still scared of my parents, to be completely honest.
Same like, I do know that I'm the captain now.
But at the same time, Uh, sometimes my dad will
shoot me a look and I'm like, shit is shit shit?
Here we go.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
My dad got mad the other day, not at me,
but he was upset about something and I was like, ooh, PTSD,
you're bringing back I'm not seen you upset like this
in a long time.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Homeboy, I'm too old for this.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
But also eh, yep, and it's like, like I said,
it wasn't even directed toward me, but I still.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Like my hands got clammedy. I was like, Ooo, somebody's
gonna get it. You'll say this. As psychotic as my
parents are, and they're fucking crazy, they prepared me so
well for life because at this point I really don't
have any issues with conflict resolution or addressing things when
they come up. If people yell, it doesn't scare me
or intimidate me. They really did a good job of
(06:31):
scaring the shit out of me with everything they did that.
Now as an adult, I'm like, no, I'm good. Yeah,
Like it is fine, that's all right, this is a
regular day. Oh you're gonna yell about it? Okay, Okay,
happy for you, meet for deep Gandhi Whoo. That guy
would have steam coming out of his ears and the
entire house would suffer crazy greatest parents ever. Okay, So
there were a couple things we wanted to talk about.
(06:53):
We just mentioned Curtis Leiwa. Yeah, if you don't live
in this area, you might not know who he is.
He is maybe one of my favorite people in this
building right now, How do we explain Curtis he's unwell?
I tell everyone.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
I tell everyone that Curtis Leewa is who Donald Trump
thinks he is, and like his supporters.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Think that he is. That's why Donald Trump hates him, yes,
and vice versa.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
It's it's like this, no nonsense, tell it like it is.
That's so cliche. The older white man who's just like
fucking hilarious. He's hilarious, problematic opinions sometimes sometimes nothing.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Crazy, but like sometimes you're like, hey, whoa hey, he's
very open to discussion though he is. And I'm pretty
sure we're gonna find out because I asked him to
be on the podcast because that man cracks me up.
Every day he tells me he hates me for one
reason or another, and I find it hilarious. He ran
for mayor here, so it was Curtis Lee numerous times
this last cycle. Curtis, it was Andrew Cuomo, and it
(08:04):
was or Mumdani. Now we all know, Ma'm donni won. Yep.
People were begging Curtis to drop out of the race.
They were like, dude, you are going to make sure
that Mamdani wins. You are taking votes away from Andrew Cuomo.
The Republican Party was in sense, how could you do this, Curtis,
We won't get out of the race. He was like,
I'm not leaving. He stayed right there. You know what
(08:24):
he said, I'm voting for mom Donnie. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
He literally not only did he stay in the race,
but he voted, which is what made me feel like, oh, no,
you're hilarious.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
He's hilarious, really is. Every day he walks around here
in a red jacket and a red beret. And the
first day I met him, he said to me, let
me ask you something. Now we're family, would you take
a bullet from me? I said, absolutely? The fuck dot Now,
why would I do that? He laughed so hard. He said,
you're the only person that's actually said that's true. Because
(08:56):
he's been shot. By the way he's been shot, he's
been beaten up. The feel unlike him. He founded the
Guardian Angels. If you don't know who the Guardian Angels are, gone,
look it up. Look up a picture of Curtis Leewah
with the Guardian Angels. That man thirty cats and he
has a lot of cats. Weird, but he's on those people.
He doesn't just talk about it like he is about it.
I'm positive that however old he is, he's in his
(09:18):
seventies or something, right, Maybe I don't know. I don't
even to just be fifty and like had a hard life.
I don't know. But whatever is in his I don't know.
He's in his seventies, Okay, Okay, I think he can
still be anybody's ass in this building. No way. I
feel like the building is safer now that Curtis is
in here, despite the fact that everyone keeps coming for
and we've had protesters like psychol literally outside of this guy.
(09:39):
You think the building is safer? Yeah, I think. I
think he would fox some people up. I believe it.
He just seems like one of those people that's like
all scar tissue.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
You know that he's from like Brownsville, East New York.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
He's from your neighborhood, Diamonds.
Speaker 2 (09:54):
He's like we all know, scary notoriously talks about my neighborhood.
And he says in front of Curtis, Hey, Diamonds from
your area too. So Curtis says where he's from, and
I was like, oh shit, Curtis, hold on, I don't
even go over there.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
He's like, yeah, I know, I know. I'm like, okay, Curtis,
please please, Yeah. I like him. He's fucking funny. We're
gonna have him on this show. We'll see how it goes,
because I think he could just go off the rails,
which you know I'm here for that. Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
And I can't wait to tell him this. Somebody in
my immediate family voted for him.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Oh wow. So he's caused many arguments in my household.
He calls apparently many arguments in the city of New York,
in our buildings, arguments of our building. I love it.
I love it because he has he doesn't give a fuck. Right,
He'll come down here and he's like, what are you
going to feed me? Which I think is insane. By
(10:52):
the way, Curtis, please, okay. He hasn't fed us once
at all, and then when there's no food he decides
to complain, and I'm like, it was always useless anyway.
Long ask text messages about how we're trying to starve
him out, and he will not be defeated. It doesn't
matter if there's a Gandhi here or not. He's not
gonna be starved like he's fucking funny man. Anyway, expect
(11:15):
something when we have Curtisan what it's gonna be, but
expect something. And then he was talking about, you know,
I just there's a target on my back. Who's gonna
look out for me? And Elvis looked and and goes,
maybe if you didn't dress like that going everywhere, people
would recognize you his red ass jacket and red beret
mayor of the mayor something like that.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
I'm like, okay, all right, oh, this building is hilarious, man.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Every day there's something bizarro going on in here. So
the other day, remember how we were talking about how
sometimes people will respond to a text and then you
diemand to get shipped for it. Sometimes that happens a lot.
So I'm going to take full responsibility because it sort
of happened yesterday. But I immediately came in and told
you what happened. So I don't know what conversation we
(12:03):
were having, but something that I said triggered someone and
this person just wrote in Gandhi is a cunt. It
made me laugh so hard because it so matter of facts. True. Yeah, okay, cool, cool,
But also I don't like the intention behind it. It
wasn't that it wasn't a very hilarious text, because it was.
I took a picture of it, Oh God, and I
sent to some of my friends and they were like,
(12:25):
but yes, but of course, so I wrote back, aw,
now you're blocked, and I told you I want people
to know what's for me. But before I could block
them or her, I feel like, that's a dude. I
don't know why. Maybe uh this person wrote back eat
a dick diamond.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
Like damn, damn, you did nothing in that interaction, and
I was about to write back, it's not diamond, you
dumb fuck, but then they would have known that they
weren't blocked immediately.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
So I just blocked them, and then I blocked them
from the other other people's Now, whoever you are, you
cannot text us anymore. And then I came in. I
told diamond happened. I was like, just the heads up,
this is what happened.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
And also I want people to know that if you
ever get a county response, it's not from me, because
I don't know how to just be cunty.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
What I would say to you, Like if you said eat.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
A dig diamond and I actually responded, I would say
something about your mom and your grandmother and how they
should have done it so that you never existed.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
You know what I mean? I want it. I want it.
Let's go there. You know, but that's a cindsy response.
I wasn't even conte. I just said, oh, you're blocked. Yeah,
I don't know. And then also like, what if it
was Elvis saying that I would hunt? No, no no.
Responding to that, I was like, that's not out of
the realm of possibility. He has said it many times,
(13:43):
you loser. You know what, we got to bring back
what you bum? I love that you bum your crumb.
Suck an egg? Yes, yeah, eat my shorts that's a
good one. Okay, yep, because is disgusting, right, what of
the usual eating my shorts? Oh my god, you can
even chew? Yeah, disgusting. Not a not an organic fiber
(14:07):
involved there. Everything is man made thought very gross.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
You know, pants smell in the summer after, you know,
I'm scared for the summer this year.
Speaker 1 (14:27):
It's gonna be ridiculous. I'm terrible. I have a super
al Nino on the way, and everyone's just acting like
that's not a big fucking deal.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
Oh, you need to talk to Deanna maybe Okay, she
just brought it up. It's freaking her out because the
super Bachelorette trip is coming, and she's like, plant something else.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
The rain's on the way. It's not even just rain,
it's like a whole system that just changes everything.
Speaker 2 (14:52):
The first thing she said to me this morning, she's like,
so you have a super al nino and the Haunta
virus and it's you know.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
It's my girl, What a time to be alive. Everyone's
just praying for death at this point, Yolo bring back
in ninety fives. I'm getting one.
Speaker 2 (15:07):
Oh god, because this is the thing with the hunter
virus that they're not talking about, Like they're saying that
you have to be in basically on top of somebody
to get it from them, right.
Speaker 1 (15:18):
But like, what does that mean? How close?
Speaker 2 (15:21):
If you and I are in a room like this
with the door closed, we could be on top of
each other.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
Oh wait, we call around here for sure? What does
that mean? I'm not gonna lie. I'm not sure what
that means. I just think that there's, you know, some
weird thing happening on a cruise ship and maybe it's
fine to just leave that ship at sea just until
we figure it out. Well they didn't. They didn't. They
didn't answer your prayers. Okay, Like, are you not scared? Oh,
(15:46):
I'm sure those people are terrified. That has to be awful.
No you? Oh me? Yeah? Why because no, No, this isn't new.
The Hunter virus isn't something that's new. It's been around.
Gene Hackman's wife died of it in New Mexico, like
last year, thirty years ago, there was another little outbreak
of it. I'm really not concerned about this. I find
it interesting that we just have the release of these
(16:07):
alien UFO files. Now there's this new virus. Where are
the Epstein files. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
I just feel like I'm traumatized by COVID and the
fact that it wasn't a big deal then either, and
then a month later it was like everything was shut down.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
Yes, everything shut down. In retrospect, it probably was an overreaction,
But I also think had everyone just done what we
were supposed to do and advised to do, it would
have been stomped out much quicker. We would have learned
much faster. But there were too many, you know, varying
details involved in it that made it drag on for
(16:43):
as long as it did assholes, and now with this
secretary of health, we're not scared. I refuse to call
him that or health secretary. I'm not gonna call him
any of those things. I'm terrified. He's a crackhead. I
don't think he's really bringing anything. He wants to start
deprescribing antide presence. And here's the thing. An broken clock
is right, like twice a day. Right, He's gonna say
(17:06):
some things that do make sense. The vast majority of
what he's saying does not make sense. I don't understand.
It's like, it's like how we hire people around here.
It's not that anyone's actually qualified for what they're doing.
He just kind of looked around and you're like, Hey,
you're my friend, you should do this, like you're cool. Yeah,
I don't like you. You could figure it out. Today
(17:27):
he's fucking out here being gay with Kid Rock, working
out in jeans and sitting in a sauna. Like the
picture of health. Again, I say, if there was a
picture of unwellness, it would be the two of them
in their genes in the sauna.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
Oh God, p weird weird stuff, don't I don't even
want that visual.
Speaker 1 (17:42):
I think we were talking about this on the show
the other day. I find it fascinating that we're at
a point in time where they're literally releasing UFO files
and we're all like, yeah, anyway, Like wasn't there in
time that we all would have been like the fuck yeah?
Speaker 2 (17:55):
But a lot of people are like pretend like they're
not actually interesting. They pretend to be interested just for conversations,
like I'm not gonna lie, I'm not interested in UFOs.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Okay, you know good, Like.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
I'm telling somebody tell me, and let's hope that their
info is factual. And if I want to go dig
for more, then I'll dig for more. But like, there
are people who feel the same way I do, but
in conversations with other people who are excited about it.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
But yeah, you're not, just shut up what. I don't
care if you're interested in it or not. I'm very
interested in it. I just like with wild animals, I'm
pretty sure that the aliens would catch a good vibe
and we would get along well, oh god, and hopefully
they would take me with them, because wherever they came
from is clearly more sophisticated than we are here. Because
they figured out how to get to us and we
did not figure out how to get to them, or
(18:43):
did we, But either way, like I meant, I just
want to learn new things. Everyone gets scared of stuff
at first, and then they try to kill it and
eradicate it. But what if they're just here investigating. What
if we are their pet ant farm and they just
came down to be like at, listen to you assholes.
You're geting out of control, and we're gonna start doing
things to rain you back in if you don't get
(19:04):
your shit together. I just don't know what they have
to say. It's beyond raining in at this point, it
is I won't I refuse to fall victim to that.
I'm not gonna believe that there's no hope. I will
not believe it. That's what they want. They want everyone
to say, there's no hope, we give up, we quit.
I don't think so. What I do think is we're
on this march toward absolute government control of everything. Doing
(19:26):
away with cash is a crazy thought. Did you see
that Meta decided to unencrypt all of their dms, So
now it's much easier for them to look into everything
that you're doing. First of all, I would just be embarrassed.
I'm not a sham. No, I was gonna say, I'm
not ashamed. I would be very ashamed. If my teams
(19:48):
got out.
Speaker 2 (19:50):
They're already looking at him. That's why I'm like, is
this really news? They've already been looking at them. They
see everything.
Speaker 1 (19:58):
I think the difference is they have I had to
go through more steps to actually do it, whereas now
they can just do it. There was at least somewhat
of this feeling of like, hey, you know what, We're
gonna protect it a little bit. And now they're like,
fuck all, y'all, who are you talking about? What country?
What did you say about which president? Mmm? I just
wonder how that's gonna play out in the long run.
(20:20):
We're fucked regardless. There's a lot of fuckery going on.
And again, I say, my crazy ass dad called this
shit a decade ago, and my sister and I were like, hey,
crazy old man, don't make us lock you up. We
need to put him on a pedestal and paint him goal.
I won't because he still does Dumpston. We need a
statue of him. Literally, this is insane. Listen, this is
(20:41):
but this is the same guy that thought Apple Care
meant he could call Apple as many times as he
wanted you to ask questions. You know what, you know,
he's paying for it, That's what he said. So I
have Apple Care. I will call that good good for him,
good for him?
Speaker 2 (20:52):
Honestly literally, that's something that like I agree with what
that you call it? Your pay for apple Careya. They're
supposed to like fix things for you whatever. And if
I have a question, then must hope that you answer it.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
That's what he said. I told you what he called
them about, didn't I He thought he was left out
of a group chat, Yes, because he said there's only
three people in it. We were like, you're the fourth dude,
it's me, Mom and Priya, and you can't see you
because you're you. You're looking at it. What do you
mean you're left out? Anyway? Thank you Apple for patiently
(21:26):
dealing with my father on that one. Much appreciate they're
the best they are. I love my parents. I again,
I'm lucky to have them. Can we talk about something
I don't love that happened the other day? What you
Andrew and me went for a little stroll the other
day to grab coffee. You grabbed Starbucks, and Andrew and
I went to a different place. But you came into
(21:48):
that place with your Starbucks, and upon you setting foot
into that place, the lovely if I'm even gonna call him,
that little critter behind the counter said oh girl, no
sar Bucks like you had to get out of there.
And I said, oh, what's going on, at which point
he volunteered up, I used to work for Starbucks for
(22:10):
five years, and let me just tell you, Oh my god, girl, no,
they are the worst. Oh my god. I could go
on and on. I said, oh, so do it go on?
What did he say to me? First?
Speaker 2 (22:22):
He started off with I don't want to get into it,
but then you badgered him.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
I did not. I said, you brought it up. What
do you mean you don't want to get into it?
You just brought this up. And then he said playfully,
which I thought was like okay, But then he said
something about labor laws, and then he ended with and
just see where their money is going. And listen, people
(22:49):
say things all the time.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
I I don't join in with the boycotts if I
don't want to, you know, and Northern problem to make
me feel as if I need to, so when his
establishment start selling coconut milk because that's the only milk
that I can have.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
Ye, then maybe I'll go there over Starbucks.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Or like when black NFL players stop playing because of
the fact that people are boycotting for their benefit, then
I'll stop watching. But until then, I'm gonna keep watching.
When I walk into my target and there are only
white people working there, then maybe all boycott for black
(23:31):
rights and what do they call it?
Speaker 1 (23:34):
Diversity and inclusion? But I'm not doing that. Number one,
I don't want to. But number two, like, think about
these things.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Why would not boycott target based off of inclusion when
every person in.
Speaker 1 (23:48):
My local target is black? Why would I do that? Okay,
I was just talking about how annoying this man was.
Put something up. The larger dropped away from it.
Speaker 2 (23:56):
All of them are annoying because a lot of people
don't even understand what their boycotten. You're upset because I
went to Starbucks when everything you use.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
Boycotting is the only way to make a difference. It
truly is because nobody cares about what you do. Right,
it's not working because not everybody does it, because everybody
affects somebody else to do it.
Speaker 2 (24:16):
I'm not boycotting in the NFL when the money from
me viewing goes to these black players, that's stupid. I'm
not doing that. And this is how these people feed
their families. Okay, I'm not doing the same thing with Target.
Somebody's going to lose their job.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
I don't disagree with that, and I'm not telling you
what to boycott and not boycott, but I am saying
the one thing that actually works is boycotting. We've gotten
so lazy and comfortable that we won't do it because
it makes us have to struggle a little bit more.
If everybody actually stopped using Amazon, changes probably would be
made in some capacity. I mean, he's the one of
the richest men in the world, so he might not
(24:52):
care at all. But that is literally how India got
the British out of the country. They stopped buying their products,
they stopped using their things, and they started making it
all themselves. And once there was no economic gain anymore,
that's when they started to say, fuck, we gotta go.
You hit people where their pockets are. And that's the
only time they threw the tea into the harbor. Second
episode in a row, we're talking about this, they throw
(25:12):
it into the harbor. It does make a difference, but
people are too lazy and too comfortable to actually go
down this road and do it.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
Well, maybe if everyone did what I thought that we
should do to make a difference, then what.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
Do you think we should do.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
We should be voting for our best interest, absolutely so
if we're not doing that and we're mad about like
I just it doesn't make any sense to me.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
It doesn't make any sense. I get it from Afar,
but day to day, everyday, middle middle class life, I'm sorry,
I'm not Now I think voting is definitely important. I
have a little and I will always go out and
I will always vote. And you should vote in every election,
not just the big ones. The smaller ones are actually
a lot more important in a lot of ways. However,
now I have a little bit less faith in elections too,
(25:54):
because old Elon got a hold of voting machines, and
if he has anything to do with anything problem trusting
it. It doesn't mean I'm gonna stop doing it, but I'm
not sure that that's going to work as much anymore.
I don't think that going out into the streets and
protesting makes the difference that people think it makes I
think what that is about which I really appreciate, is
(26:15):
seeing that there are so many people who feel the
same way that you do, and feeling like you're not
alone and making a stink and making people look at you. Yeah,
I get that, but I don't think that actually affects
change as much as voting does, and as actually boycotting
and stop spending your money in places does. Stopping spending
your money in places does. Okay, you look pissed off.
It's irritating.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
And the reason why it's irritating is because why is
it that I am now the poster child of what's
wrong when there's so many other things that are wrong.
There are so many other people who are wrong everyday life.
We have a platform where we could be talking about
things all day long, and a lot of us don't
do it.
Speaker 1 (26:55):
Those people are wrong, you know, there's so much wrong.
I'm not just you like okay, and I do. I
do things that are wrong all the time. I have
an iPhone. That's a terrible thing to probably have, right.
They have kids working in factories who are being treated horribly,
and I have an iPhone. So I'm a hypocrite and
I am. What's wrong with that problem? I am the problem.
I am. I think all of us just have to
(27:17):
own it a little bit more and accept like, yes,
I am doing things that are problematic.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
I am.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
It doesn't mean you're a bad person. But if we
really wanted to make a difference, we could. We just don't.
So it's all of us. Yeah, okay, absolutely, it is
all of us. Whatever. All right, Well, I guess we're
gonna on the podcast there. If you want to follow
us on Instagram, follow at Sauce on the side, if
