Speaker 2 (03:52):
Man.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
It's a lot of times people don't, you know, things change.
You know, there's a lot of people that start out
with you, they go different, you know, you go a
different direction. People don't feel you as much as you
think they should. It's dope whenever one of y'all is like, man,
I've been listening for ten fifteen years and I still
fuck with y'all. And it's crazy because you know, we're
three days away from our wedding anniversary essentially, and the

(04:17):
Blackout Tips official day, which is Tuesday, and that is
the day we want to see you guys posting all
your gear, posting all your merch, your cups, your drinks, whatever,
your posters. If you went to one of the live
shows and you got that something, we want to see
it all, man, like represent the Blackout Tips. And we're
very proud of what we've created. We're very proud of
the community we've created, and we love to show y'all

(04:38):
off to people. And you know, I think a lot
of times a show like ours, we're not necessarily the
biggest show, so you're not we're not constantly you know,
getting media attention, we're not getting aggregated and all that
type of stuff. But look, man, we're self sufficient podcast.
We're a little engine that could. We don't do this shit.
We don't have a lot of big backing and all

(05:00):
that stuff, and we and it's because of people like y'all.
It's because of the people that take the time to
sign up and become premium members of our show. So
that's money we can depend on account on. Whenever you
guys go to our Patreon or you go to our
website the blackoutis dot com slash premium and you sign up.
That helps when the recurrent donations, you know, we get

(05:23):
by because of y'all. And I think, you know, we're
incredibly proud, and this is our chance to show off,
like y'all to other people and be like, yeah, like, yeah,
maybe you didn't read about our podcast on the top
one hundred podcasts of time or whatever. Maybe we've never
gotten into podcast Hall of Fame. Maybe we're not gonna

(05:43):
get you know, recognized too often in media places. That's fine,
We're fine with that because of y'all. And really, like,
I never feel unappreciated or undervalue because of y'all. And
so this is our chance to celebrate y'all and what
we've built together. And yeah, September second, let's do that

(06:06):
man for our wedding anniversary. Y'all help us. Yes, all right,
let's get into the shows. The first episode was a
feedback show. It is thirty one forty seven. It was
called the Mama Matrix. We got seven comments. Let's see.

(06:27):
Apia says, I absolutely know that I didn't have the
worst struggle with my body, at least I know it now.
I'm also healthy and my body works well, and I
was always regular sized and I could buy my clothes
in every store. Still there were many times that didn't.
What did when I didn't feel great about myself? The
first boyfriend I had at fifteen told other people after
he broke up with me that we used He was

(06:47):
used to dating only very skinny girls, and because I
wasn't that, he didn't want to date me anymore. I
imagine imagine hearing that after you haven't been so sure
about yourself anyway, will message you. Of course, like I said,
I'm not trying to discount the struggle or whatever. I'm
not even trying to play appression Olympics. I was only
trying to illustrate a point about how like this world
is so fucked up man, And like I remember, Taylor

(07:11):
Swift had a video and in the video, it showed
her stepping on the scale and she looks down at
the scale and the scale says fat, and so many
because we were in the height of like internet sensationalism
and anger, and it was so weird to me because
so many people got mad at her and they claimed
it was like in some type of body positivity that

(07:32):
they were mad at her about. And I completely thought
they were wrong me too at the time, And I
also thought she was being extremely brave and it was
actually really dope what she was doing, because it's something
that people in the body positivity space always say, which
is you look at people on the outside and you

(07:54):
make judgments and you just do not know what's going
on inside of them. Agreed, a person like Taylor Swift,
who was obviously not fat, no one is accusing her
of being fat. If part of the reason she looks
how she looks and she behaves the way she behaves
is because she has her own body issues where she's
looking around going, oh my god, I'm fat, I'm fat,

(08:15):
I'm thinking I'm overweight, and especially in the industry with
those standards, meaning those standards are echo back to her.
If she puts on two pounds, there's some motherfucker somewhere
who is like, oh, Taylor, I don't know this dress
now you know, like that that's her life.

Speaker 3 (08:30):
You know, it's stupid, but it's true.

Speaker 1 (08:32):
And you would think, well, you have the money, you
have the fame, you're white, you're well, like your body
image should be perfect in your mind because so many
people think your goals. And she was saying, no, like,
my shit is my head is not always right. I
have anxiety. My head.

Speaker 3 (08:50):
Anxiety is a liar to me too.

Speaker 1 (08:52):
And so my point being, like everyone's catching all of
this negativity and all of this judgment that we have
throughout the just the waves of the universe that we
exist in the society. And so yeah, of course I assume.
I don't assume anybody is completely escaped it.

Speaker 2 (09:13):
No, no, And it's one of those things where if
you live long enough, these things will impact you, you know,
and like you say, I know family, and there's a
lot of people that are skinny because they are fucking
frightened of gaining three pounds, like like you know, but
as you leave.

Speaker 1 (09:32):
So many people who look good, but if you knew
what was in their head to keep them looking good,
you would not want to trade brains with them.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
Right, because it affects us all differently. And the thing
is as you age, as you go through puberty, as
you going through all your cycle, all this shit impacts weight, medications,
all these things impact where and so it's just one

(10:02):
of these things where a lot of times the ship
is beyond your control. And we put weight on ourselves
and also the world puts weight on us too.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
And it's and and you're talking about weight. Uh, and
I'm saying, that's just part of it, right, right, that's
the that's weight is like one part of it. It's
one thing people can see. But you know, I like
I used to It used to be funny to me
listening to people on podcasts and social media and comedians

(10:35):
and shit, and they be shitting on fat people. Meanwhile,
they're a whole drug at it. They're a whole alcoholic there.
You know, Like, Okay, so you look a certain way,
but when you go to the doctor, what is that doctor?
So you're just walking out the doctor. No notes, No,
you could be focusing on yourself. You could be nicer

(10:56):
to other people, but in your mind, you're like, at
least I'm not fat. You know. It's I hated about
the biggest loser. The biggest loser to me was the
whole joke was, at least you're not as fat as
these people, And meanwhile America's becoming fatter watching this show. Right,
It's not like but you can always tune in and go.
It's why I'll never watch. And I don't get any
enjoyment out of stuff like my six hundred pound life

(11:16):
or the thousand pounds sisters.

Speaker 3 (11:17):
I don't even watch those.

Speaker 1 (11:18):
Things, cause the point is not for you to watch
it and have empathy and understanding and whatever their struggle is,
and to see their journey and they try to change
the real point of that show is for you to
watch it, sit on your couch eating chips and be like, well, yeah,
I'm three hundred and seventy pounds, but I'm not four
hundred and forty pounds like these fucking losers. It's like

(11:41):
our society and like I said, that's just wait. So
like there's a bunch of other shit. People literally can't
even help you know, you know, she brought up disability
and you bring up height mental illness. Yeah. So it's
just very interesting to see how many people it works
on people and and and it's always so crazy to

(12:04):
me when we just get angry at people who we
perceive to have better than us, for feeling like they
have issues with their body. When we see some Hollywood
actress talk about, y'all, I just eat like water chestnuts
because you know, I put on two pounds and I
gotta go audition for a row and.

Speaker 3 (12:19):
We go, you bitch, you look great. What the fuck
you can eat up?

Speaker 1 (12:22):
I'm out here fucking skipping meals and you eat instead
of going Jesus scarlet. Joe Hansen is in her own
head about not being fine. What the fuck is wrong
with us? You know what I mean?

Speaker 3 (12:35):
That's the you know. Serena Williams.

Speaker 1 (12:37):
Part of the reason she took a GLP one one
of these like weight loss medications is because she said
after she got pregnant she was having trouble like losing
shedding the baby weight, even thought after she was pregnant
she went on to win more tournaments like this was
not as she got pregnant and she just ballooned and
she was so She's like I was at peak.

Speaker 3 (12:58):
I was a peak.

Speaker 1 (12:59):
Athlete on planet. I was whooping people's ass and at
the same time worried about the fact I could not
shed twenty more pounds or that I couldn't get my
body to look like it looked before I had this baby.
And I know that's unrealistic, but that is also the
pressure put on women, like you need to snap back.

Speaker 2 (13:16):
Yes, And the thing is, every woman's body is completely different,
and it's insulting to look at a woman and say,
carry this, carry a baby of baby's for nine months,
have alan have a sea section, push it out vaginally,
and the second of least your body. I want you
to look like you did before, you know, And you're

(13:37):
not even talking about of people getting depressed afterwards. You're
not even talking about breastfeeding. And I don't not your funny.
I don't have this other shit that goes along with
your body going through this particular process.

Speaker 1 (13:49):
So I just don't assume. I don't assume anyone's getting
out unscathed. But yeah, of course there are varying degrees
to this, you know, there's varying degrees to this. There's
all kinds of intersections and privileges within even weight and
weight laws, and there's people that weigh a certain way,
but the body has the right proportions. So we're like,
I don't give a fuck if she four hundred pounds,

(14:12):
you know, because they got like the flat tummy Jean
or whatever. It's like, well they got the they got
the eight ball, the hour glass, whatever.

Speaker 3 (14:18):
So it's it's just a bunch of shit.

Speaker 1 (14:19):
It's all made up and fucked up, and it's all
keeping us from being healthy and happy.

Speaker 3 (14:24):
If whatever is happy for you is the happiness for you.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
Whatever you decide, like whatever you and your goals of
health is, that's what matters, you know. And and the
thing is you can you can change things, you can
accept things, you can whatever. But mostly it's for your
mental like whatever you decide. But yeah, Apia, I wasn't
you know, and I you know not obviously. It's I mean,
you've written about this stuff before, so I know you've

(14:49):
dealt with body issues. But it's just crazy that you
know it can it can be so bad for everyone.
Rona Rafael says to my fellow black Autis fam and
whole Fanny Willis should have stepped down. That is a
weird blame game to be bringing up.

Speaker 3 (15:04):
In August twenty twenty five.

Speaker 1 (15:06):
Where's the blame for the freaking GOP that needed ten
senators to join fifty Democrats during the second appeachment trial
and ended Trump and Trump's political career once and for all.
Just ten. We all got heat for the attorney generals
and the mayors, especially the black women. But the GOP
keeps getting away with havoc and litteral elephant in the room.
Come on, people, tell me what magical solution that miss
Willis would have used, that Trump would have easily allowed

(15:28):
himself to be tried quickly facing jail in Georgia. Yeah,
that's one problem with the whole like Monday Morning Quarterback
and of Fanny Willis is because I think it worked
on the people who should not be accepting these reasonings
as acceptable. Meaning I don't care if Fannie Willis fucked

(15:49):
that nigga. I don't either, And I don't think it
was relevant or had any bearing on the case.

Speaker 3 (15:55):
It didn't, And I'm not going.

Speaker 1 (15:57):
To retroactively blame her because she could not see that coming,
because I when I tell you.

Speaker 3 (16:04):
I had zero people.

Speaker 1 (16:07):
That ever even brought that up as a potential possible
thing that could happen. Zero. And I think it works
in Trump's favor to go yep, you should have seen that,
your dummy.

Speaker 3 (16:18):
That's why he won.

Speaker 1 (16:19):
It's because you fucked up, as opposed to being like,
what the fuck does this have to do with if
he was trying to steal votes in Georgia. That's what
I'm focused on, and I'm gonna only be focused on that, yes, sir,
unless you would have pulled up some actual malfeasing some shit.
Fanny did that, Well, I'm like, oh, okay, that was
a legal maneuver and she fucked up, Like I just

(16:40):
can't And I feel like we do this every time
Trump gets away with some shit, we just end up
being like and the Democrat or the person that was
trying And it's like, like I said, I went through
it last week, I won't go through it all. But
if you go through all those cases, he's convicted in
some of those and it still didn't stop them.

Speaker 2 (16:56):
Nope.

Speaker 1 (16:56):
So you can get upset with however it went down
and your magic world. But the problem is in your
magic world, you believe there was a way that he
would have been gotten, and I think in my world,
the one we're living in, I don't believe he can
be gotten not. I don't think it's going to happen
through legal apparatusus in our country. I don't think our
country was even designed to hold people who can be

(17:18):
president accountable for shit like this. I think there was
a time where decency would have reigned and it would
have worked if he would have tried.

Speaker 3 (17:26):
This shit in the sixties or the seventies.

Speaker 1 (17:29):
Then even in that, even in times that were worse racially,
people would have been like, I'm a Republican that I
cannot let this man try to overthrow the government. Right,
we have past, we have fast forwarded to now to
where Republicans are like, I'm I'm just gonna keep keep
letting him not be accountable. So I don't know what
you do in this world, because I think the people

(17:51):
that could hold him accountable are the voters. And I
feel like we keep doing a lot to avoid that conversation,
which is the only conversation I want to have.

Speaker 2 (18:03):
Now, Ye do anything else, don't waste my time.

Speaker 1 (18:06):
I'm not interested in the minutia of any of this anymore.
There's one conversation in the world that we are not having.
It's the only one that matters, And if anyone can
convince me that it's beyond that, then I haven't seen
the argument yet. But we are living in a country
where about at least half I would say, probably closer

(18:26):
to the two thirds other people either don't give a fuck
or they want the shit that Trump does. That part,
to me is the untenable part. I don't want to
be in this country with these people and then just
give them a pass and go. Yeah, it's because the
messaging wasn't right. Oh it's because Fanny Willis. Fuck that nigga.
I don't think it is, I truly don't. I think

(18:47):
there's so many things like, if anything, people should have
been looking at them trials going it seems like he's gonna.

Speaker 3 (18:54):
Get away with this.

Speaker 1 (18:55):
We need to vote extra hard and make sure he
cannot be president. Yes, but they just went backwards and
I was like, why didn't the laws get him anyway?
I recall folks saying Garland was too slow, But now
Willis would have would have been fast enough if she resigned,
and the Republican governor who is now locked in with
Trump would be ignoring the whole scenario. Right, Yeah, there

(19:15):
was no way that was gonna work. I don't think.
I think in an alternate universe she doesn't have that
dude on there and he's still not found guilty in time,
or or he's or he's found guilty but not sentenced,
or he's found guilty in wins president. I don't think
it matters. We really be shooting on our own in
the name of one perfection. I want efficient and effective

(19:37):
in my leadership. I don't care for perfection because it
doesn't exist. Thank you, Ryan Camroc Gray Show as always. Yeah,
and I and I don't mean it in a way
like you just can't. You can't criticize him, do whatever.
Just I'm not on that like you can do whatever.
Don't think me going. I think that's a waste of time.
If you think it's fruitful. I don't what you should,

(19:58):
don't what you eat, don't make me shit. I don't
be like that's your conversation, Go have it. You think
that's working. How long have we been doing that same conversation.
That's the same Go do it and hopefully this time
it works. But for me, I just I don't think
this is an issue of I don't think this is
a very complicated issues. I think it's a very simple issue.

Speaker 2 (20:16):
It's not. And I think for a lot of people
they do these things to as excuses because to be
told most people want to live in a logical, rational world,
and so they use these excuses and all these things
to make quote unquote make it make sense, and quote
unquote not hold people accountable because that's the only way

(20:38):
that they can kind of function. And I'm like, I
don't care about any of that bullshit. I want results.
That's the only thing that really matters to me, y'all.
It's results, and results means you have to have numbers,
and results mean people have to take their ass to
the polls, and results means they have to vote people out.
I want results. I don't care about how it looks.

(20:59):
I don't care about how it appears. I actually don't
care about how you feel. I want results. Because Republicans
they get results, and that's all that matters. Trump can
snect them in the face with his dick and they'll
be like, yes, sir, whatever you want, we're gonna get
this bullshit done. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
Movies, video games, and comic books promise you that the
good guys will win because they are good. But life
is not that way.

Speaker 2 (21:26):
No, it's not.

Speaker 1 (21:27):
You win because you fight. You win because you fight
the hartist. You win because you're not gonna give up
because you have resolved. You win because that you outnumber
the other people. That's how you win. You don't win,
you don't. You don't win just based off of But
we're right, it doesn't matter if there's you know, there's

(21:49):
so many lessons in history we should have learned, but
none of us pays attention to it, and they're erasing it.
Mary says, just wanted to chime in on Gavin. I
hope the way many California's view Gavin is something that
can be replicated and the rest of it country we
have learned to accept our imperfect, at times problematic governor.
Whoever wins the primary will be disappointed on some issues
and the Democrats will have to be okay with that. Yeah,

(22:09):
that's the main lesson. That's it. That's it, Mary, I
don't think it's deeper than that. Like people keep us it's.

Speaker 3 (22:18):
Not their fault they have PTSD.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
But like you know, even when I'm on Karen Hunter Show,
it's like there's this presentation of like Gavin Newsom, like hey,
did you see this thing he did? How are we
feeling about it? And it's not that it's to me,
I'm past it. It's not that I'm over it. It's
I'm past it. He's joining up, he's catching up to me.

(22:44):
I'm not catching up to him. And I see this
as a way of life, meaning I don't think of
it as a political tactic.

Speaker 3 (22:51):
That's like cool, and we'll just be sassy for a
little bit.

Speaker 1 (22:54):
I mean, hey, Gavin, let's just do it like this,
like keep this up for three to four years and
don't like. I don't care if it stops polling. Well,
I don't care if the Internet turns on you. I
don't care if social media stars, you know, chirping.

Speaker 3 (23:07):
Back or whatever.

Speaker 1 (23:08):
The fuck. I don't like. And I hope and think,
hopefully he has that in him, because he is a
straight white man of a certain level of arrogance.

Speaker 3 (23:18):
And I've always felt like.

Speaker 1 (23:20):
What would be helpful for Democrats is having white dudes
who are super charged in that way, not because I
think they need to be white dudes, but because they
just somehow the society lets them get away with shit
that they don't let anyone else get away with, you know,
Joe Biden. It's gonna sound like I'm shitting on Joe Biden,

(23:43):
and I'm not. But let's go ahead and let's go
ahead and go there for a second. Joe Biden was
every body's worst nightmare as a candidate in twenty twenty. Right.
He was a multiple time loser of trying to be president.
He was, he was old, he was white, he was straight,

(24:08):
he was he had been around so long that he
was essentially moderate because he was through a time.

Speaker 3 (24:15):
He went through a time where moderate was what.

Speaker 1 (24:19):
You should be, right because because the Republicans weren't as
badshit crazy as they are now and Democrats weren't as
progressive as they are now right before social media and shit.
So he went through time where Democrats need to be
tough on crime. He also went through Black lives matter
and where Democrats are like, hey, let's what are we

(24:40):
doing with these cops? Right? He was not sharp because
he's never been sharp. He's never been a great orator,
he's never been quick off the cuff. He uh, he
was everything they said no, And then every the type

(25:00):
of person was on the ballot against him.

Speaker 3 (25:01):
You're gay person, you're black person, your woman.

Speaker 2 (25:04):
Ever bring that up.

Speaker 3 (25:05):
Yeah, So he was a lot of people's last choice.
But you know what helped him win.

Speaker 1 (25:12):
He was a straight, white dude, right, And at the
end of the day, white people, even though they don't
got a racist on in their body, come on, it
is what it is. At the end of the day,
there's a type of white person who's like our vote Democrat.
If it's a white man, it's subconscious. They don't recognize it.
They don't even understand. They don't know enough, they don't

(25:36):
read enough to know any of this shit I'm talking
about racially. They probably looking at me like Rod's going
too far? Is even I'm not sure he knows what
he's talking about. That's the confidence of being a white
person that doesn't really deal with white supremacy as an obstacle.

Speaker 3 (25:51):
They don't have to navigate it, so they don't need to.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
Know anything about it. They just think we should just
try to be good people. Bernie would have saved us all.
You know that kind of shit. It's like, yeah, you
think that that's your life experience. You don't know what
the fuck you're talking about. But my point being, there's
a leeway that this straight white man gets, and white
people aren't the only ones that give it to him.
There's black people that give it to him, there's Indian people.

(26:14):
Everyone kind of has this level like, hey, straight white man,
it's gonna be all right, he'll figure it out, we'll
get through it all. You fucked up. But I mean,
come on, he's a straight white man. What could he know,
you know, Like it's a little bounced little curve. So
having one like that, like Aven Newsom, who's aggressive and
won't get as much nitpicking about his tone, right, who

(26:41):
who will prob language when when the Democratic people that
they when the people that Democrats paid to do all
this like you know, polling and focused group testing, when
they come to him and they say, yeah, So it's
not really playing well with a certain type of person
who thinks you are being too nasty to Republicans and

(27:02):
that's making them not want to vote for you, and.

Speaker 3 (27:04):
We really need to get those votes.

Speaker 1 (27:05):
So if you could just maybe stop concentrating on being
a jerk to Trump and miss talk more about positive
I hope and think he's the kind of guy that'll
go no because that's gonna come cause he because he
gets to say no because he got a lot of privilege.
He know it's gonna be all right either way for him.
Whereas I think a lot of you know, Hillary Kamala

(27:28):
there's like a level like, uh, okay, I guess I
should listen to y'all. Y'all the one talking to the
white folks. So they say they think I'm shrill. Okay,
all right, they a deplorable didn't play well. We need
to worry about that as opposed to turn that ship up,
which is what people say to Gavin. And when they
tell him turn it down, he seemed to have the
arrogance to go, I'm gonna turn it up anyway. Fuck y'all.

(27:50):
I hope, I hope he can keep that up. It's
all I'm saying, because he was just recently on some
other shit of like, lets our work with the conservatives
and do pie cast and have conversations. I will always
have one eyebrow up because that's such a bad instinct
and such bad advice that I'm like, I just need

(28:11):
you to go three more years if we have another election,
I just need you to go three more years of
without that popping up again, because you just this shit
is my jam. This other shit would let's talk to
Steve Bannon is not my It's one not my jam.
And I don't know that even a straight white dude

(28:32):
gets that much rope in this new paradigm where we're
so divided, I don't think even he's gonna get that
much rope where he could keep that tactic and this
one at the same time. I think it'll it'll make
people just feel like he's a big ass, phony, fake motherfucker.
But if he can keep just nastiness up for three
to four years, then I think he'll be fine. Although

(28:52):
although California is known as a blue sanctuary state, and
despite living in La I'm just a twenty minute drive
from the district where Republican representative voted in the Gate
twenty election results, there are plenty of red pockets in
this big state, but somehow Gavin has managed to win.
I'm attaching the link for a real explaining gavenue in
the non California and no service too long. I'm good,
I like and noise again, not trying to be a dick.

(29:13):
I really don't care. We're a long way out. He
the one that gotta keep this up, So you know,
maybe if we're in twenty twenty seven, twenty twenty eight,
and twenty two. Yeah, if we're in twenty twenty seven
and he's still the front runner and he's then maybe
then I'll be more interested in, like, let's get his
background story. But right now we're so far out, so

(29:36):
much could go wrong, so much could go wrong, that
I just don't I'm more invested in the day to
day than I am in the long like view of
can we go four years of supporting Gavenusom via the
internet and carry him all the way to the finish line?
I don't know if we can or not. And honestly,
it ain't my job. All niggas gotta do that hustle

(29:58):
with no flow says, listen to your co I missed
on the state of politics and on Drake's crash out
brought two things to mind. Number One, the GOP survey
after Obama win it too, has any crew flamed out
as hard as young Money. Number One, the GOP, I
sometimes forget they had a survey that told them they
needed to reach out to minorities. Yeah, it was after
they lost to Obama and they had this outreach to

(30:22):
we need to send our conservative message to people that
aren't just straight white people and Christians. And if I
remember at the time, they put Michael still in charge,
so they had a black guy over the GOP, the
R and C or whatever, and yeah, that did not
last long. They they rejected that, and they rejected him

(30:48):
within like two years or something. And I want to
say there were a lot of metrics he was successful by,
but in the metric that they care about, which was,
you know, being racist, he could never win because he's
a black person who is trying not to be racist.
Like I'm not saying his party isn't racist, but his

(31:10):
thing was like, let's not lead with that, let's not
act like that, let's just be conservative in our values
and just drop all this racial animosity shit.

Speaker 3 (31:19):
And they were like, that's the fucking seasoning.

Speaker 2 (31:21):
Bitch, that's what we want, that's what we vote on.

Speaker 3 (31:24):
This don't taste good.

Speaker 2 (31:25):
Yeah, and truth be told, that they stopped that racism shit,
it'd be a lot of black Christians that would be
right on over there with them, But they stopped at
racism and they were like, not my black ass, right.

Speaker 1 (31:35):
So yeah, Michael still ended that, And that's funny. Michael
still ended up being one of being basically ostracized from
the party. And now he's like a conservative dude that
also hates Trump and a lot of conservative values, which
I like him.

Speaker 3 (31:50):
Being spicy like that.

Speaker 1 (31:51):
But it's kind of you know, it's kind of wild
that he couldn't see that coming the whole time, because
I did.

Speaker 2 (31:56):
He did not see that coming.

Speaker 1 (31:57):
Yeah, so yeah, they said nah, And they made a
bet that suppression of overall unwillingness of progressive to maintain
any sort of fight would be enough, and dang, they
pulled it off.

Speaker 3 (32:09):
Progressives are so full of it.

Speaker 1 (32:10):
If they held the line, maybe GLP would have actually
taken that survey the heart and came back towards the center.

Speaker 3 (32:16):
Yeah, but you can always depend on the left to
stay divided.

Speaker 2 (32:19):
And find amongst themselves.

Speaker 1 (32:22):
Right regarding Young Money between Drake and Nikki, I don't
know if it's drugs or what, but they really have
gone down bad Wayne to none of them in my face,
but still sad to see them fall off so art. Yeah, man,
they got to write a book about what the fuck
happened to Young Money because that was crazy.

Speaker 2 (32:38):
Somebody gonna give us a documentary in a few years,
like and I don't want no cheap I'm on a
real indifferent documentary about this.

Speaker 1 (32:45):
And Drake was holding on for a minute, man, But
just like this last year, and some changes just being
super terrible. Uh ms. Mars says, I'm so glad that
the comment had brought up something I've wondered for the longest.

Speaker 3 (32:56):
I was wondering when you would have Karen Hunter.

Speaker 1 (32:58):
Bomoni on the shows, like maybe d and the other
camera will have them on at some point.

Speaker 3 (33:02):
Lol.

Speaker 1 (33:03):
Yeah. I'll be trying, man, just you know, may be busy. Yeah,
like I hear y'all. Saly Agney says, I have a
book to recommend. It's called a Chaos Machine. I know
you're currently reading one on social media Digital Madness, which
I added to my queue since you talked about it
on the pregame Rod, but I figured it would be
add greatly to it. It's written by New York Times
reporter Max Fisher. It's chronicles gamer Gate, social media impact internationally,

(33:28):
the Mayan marshit will cause your job to.

Speaker 3 (33:30):
Drop Trump's first term.

Speaker 1 (33:32):
Book was written before twenty twenty four Peter Thale, Facebook
reader and more. As I was buying up black books
one day at Barnes and Nobles, it literally piqued my
interests since I'm doing the darned this, damn this the
ring myself of it because it's been fucking with my
mental health for five to six years. Just wanted to
pass that alone. Look forward to reading Digital Madness when
the time comes. Piece Iron I added to my list.

(33:54):
What was the Chaos Machine? I added to my list
of books. I'll try to get to at some point.
Appreciate you, uh even, he said, shout out to the
comment or I had to exchange with. I think we
came to an understanding. If you guys remember she talked.
They were talking about samiro I believe was her name,
or yeah, who was uh a fat positive body positive

(34:20):
influencer and the different techniques that maybe she's used over
the years, and why even is not necessarily for it,
but this other person was. And then we had I
thought a good conversation based off of that. And I
also thought y'all was back and forth, was very respectful
and you know and whatnot. I mean, I can't speak
for both of y'all, but to me, you know, that

(34:41):
was a good exchange. That wasn't just you know, name
calling and acting you know whatever, acting in bad faith.

Speaker 2 (34:48):
Right, you let social media tell it that's how you
always supposed to act. You've been like y'all wouldn't talk
to people like this face to face.

Speaker 1 (34:54):
I think we came to an understanding that speaks for
about the quality of listeners of the show. It's a
good quality. It's a good quality of listeners as a
quality podcast. Thank you.

Speaker 3 (35:02):
All right, let's see what it'll be funny if the
person roll back in.

Speaker 1 (35:05):
Like, nah, it's on sight fuck you. I don't care
what you say.

Speaker 2 (35:08):
Oh no, I hope not.

Speaker 3 (35:09):
I'm crazy.

Speaker 1 (35:11):
YouTube dark Nam says fun feedback show. Thanks five stars.
Provocative AF says good every good everything. Folks, thanks for
the awesome feedback show. I enjoy you and Kara's respective
on Commland. Your endorsement should be coming soon from Arby's.

Speaker 3 (35:24):
The Dynamic Duo did it again. Thanks again for.

Speaker 1 (35:26):
Giving us an honest community as space to not only
lab but to get great perspective of different subject matters
that are honest and easy to comprehend. Thank you. David
says my comment was blocked from your show. I don't
know how. I don't know what you said. It must
have auto blocked it, because why would this comment not
be blocked. I went to check the folder to see

(35:48):
if there were comments that needed moderation. I couldn't find any.
So David, I don't know what happened. Maybe there's Yeah,
I don't know. Maybe you said some wild shit and
YouTube decided it couldn't.

Speaker 2 (35:59):
Be because because sometimes it decides on its own without us.

Speaker 1 (36:02):
I'm guessing. I don't know. I actually do not know
how it works on YouTube with the comment moderation, So yeah,
I don't know. Damien says, great show is always I
think what contributed to the appearance of Trump being at
touchable was the dummies putting him back in the office. Yeah,
definitely on the voters, I'd say that's one the main
gist of everything.

Speaker 2 (36:23):
And if you can't accept that reality, what are we
talking about?

Speaker 1 (36:27):
Yes, and the poe was have you read a book
this year? And yes, we're counting audio books. I know
everyone always likes to go back and forth over that
question just to feel weird, but yes, it counts.

Speaker 2 (36:38):
Yes, I think actually I think audio books count too.
And yes, of course over the past year I have
read books because to me, I treat audio books like
podcasts in my mind, and particularly like a lot of comedians,
a lot of actors and actresses, I actually prefer their
audiobook versus their book. Because some people I actually want

(37:01):
to hear, particularly if somebody's really funny, I actually want
to hear their work, like here in their tone. To me,
that makes a big difference in reading the words.

Speaker 3 (37:09):
All right, so let's take a break here.

Speaker 1 (37:11):
But yeah, that was I've read one too, and the
pole results were eighty eighty four percent yes, sixteen percent no,
which is interesting because we're reading less books. We read
and scroll more, but we're less literate when it comes
to long form reading then we've been in ever and

(37:32):
so it's cool to know our audience is still, you know,
getting in there with that long form every once in
a while.

Speaker 2 (37:38):
And I've been reading a bunch of comic books too,
and I think that those council.

Speaker 1 (37:42):
Absolutely all right. So we'll come right back after this break,
is all right? Episode thirty one forty eight shot the

(38:16):
East of Ballu. That's a nice jam. Where have the
fiscal conservatives gone? We got three comments? Opia says this one.
Guess the race shocked me. That guy was using his
whitest the hits white racists love to use, right right right?

Speaker 2 (38:31):
That why sometimes I don't even be mad. I'd be like, well,
I get I guess my racism.

Speaker 1 (38:36):
Red.

Speaker 2 (38:36):
I was off to day.

Speaker 3 (38:37):
He was killing.

Speaker 1 (38:38):
He was killing.

Speaker 3 (38:39):
He was a trifacto back to the old country. I
was like, oh, okay, right, do me all off.

Speaker 1 (38:45):
Shoe booty, says Roder, solidifying his status is unk by
drinking in old fashion. I just came across a recipe
for a cherry cola old fashion that uses fresh cherries
and a homemade syrup. I'm about to become a home
mixologist with this. Another recipe I found while scrolling TikTok,
and then it's linked to TikTok, but I'm not clicking
on that.

Speaker 2 (39:01):
Roger tried an old fashion the other day that had
tequila in it, and it was actually good because it
was it's heavy.

Speaker 1 (39:09):
They're all good, even, he says. I still don't understand
what people have against Shador Sanders. I don't follow sports
like that, but he keeps coming up on my timeline.
What did that kid do? There are literal rapists and
abuse in the NFL whom people look the other way
for is because he has famous father. I thought they
liked deonn It's extremely complicated, but I will tell you
this Eve. Your algorithm is showing you what it thinks.

(39:32):
Will piss you off, So your algorithm is showing you
all the people who are angry that there are people
who don't like Shador Sanders. I don't know how many
people there are who truly are like I don't like
Shador Sanders and I'm rooting against him right. I personally
do not think it is that many people. It's not

(39:52):
that many people in the media. It's not that many
people on social media, especially when you reduce the idea
of just these bots and these people who are are
just constantly scrolling with trying to make money off of
y'all getting upset on social media. It's not that none
of these people exist. I just do not think the
numbers jive with the amount of time spent online arguing

(40:14):
about it. Very similar to Kaitlyn Clark, in my opinion,
there are people in real life that are racist pieces
of shit that go to WNBA games to root just
for Kaitlyn Clark because they hate black people that much.

Speaker 3 (40:28):
I'm sure there's some of them.

Speaker 1 (40:30):
I don't think it's nearly what it looks like on
social media, where where like everybody that likes Kaitlyn Clark
is just a fucking clan hood in the closet racist.
I'm sure there's a lot of people like me who
just like ball. And it was like, oh cool, here's
an anomaly of a type of style of play that
we don't get to see in the WNBA. Let's see

(40:52):
what she can do.

Speaker 2 (40:53):
You know.

Speaker 3 (40:54):
And people like me, I assume.

Speaker 1 (40:58):
Are not rooting against page Backer or rooting against Angel
Rees or whatever that bullshit is. We're just like, I
like fun WNBA basketball when I can catch it. I'm
not even thinking about some racism. That's not That's the
last thing on my mind. That being said, Shadoor.

Speaker 3 (41:16):
Is such a.

Speaker 1 (41:20):
What do you call that? It's like a test of biases,
I think, because you can find something to be upset
about if you look at Shador Sanders long enough. It
just depends on who you are. There's the people who
love college football, watch football, and they watch all the
teams and all this stuff, and if I'm being fair

(41:42):
to them, most of them the whole season told me,
yeah shit, there's not as good as people who only
watch Colorado, who only root for Deon Sanders and Shadoor
Sanders because they like them as people, and you know,
the celebrity reality show of it all, they're not as
good as those people think he is. But those people
aren't necessarily watching college football. They're watching Colorado and Deon

(42:06):
Sanders in this reality show, right, so of course they
think he's the best thing since Slightespread. They couldn't name
another player that got drafted, right some of these people.
Then you had the people that are like extremely into
college football and this, you know, the people I know
who work in that industry who if like and once

(42:27):
again to be fair, they didn't have him going like
as the best prospect, But none of these motherfuckers had
him going in the fifth round, and none of them
had him going undrafted. So they can try to revise
the history on it and act like, na, we all
knew this wasn't crazy. No, it was crazy to watch
that boy drop that far. I'm not even a legend

(42:48):
racial conspiracies. I just know none of y'all guys had
him being in the fifth round zero.

Speaker 2 (42:54):
The way people are talking about him, you literally thought
he would depending number one draft pick, right, So now you.

Speaker 1 (42:59):
Got to do a bunch like retrofitting of agendas to
be like, what really happened? And so for a lot
of people, you know, you're Deon Sanders fans. They've decided
that the league hates Deon Sanders now, which I don't believe.
I think I think this is a league that loves
Deon Sanders and he loves them back, and they they

(43:20):
because he I'm not saying this to impunists character, but
Deon Sanders is not controversial in a way that would
be that would be counter NFL programming. Agreed, like, this
is not this is not a Kaepernick thing. This is
not a man who's standing up for the people all

(43:43):
the time and causing all these social justice causes. Like
he is a huge part of NFL culture, and in
the ways that he is disruptive, there are ways that
they like this. He's a star, he's charismatic, he drives
ratings like they they love, they like. The NFL is
not threatened by Deon Sanders on any level. Now, in

(44:04):
my opinion, if one day they those same people would
love to have him as a coach on some of
those teams, even if it wasn't gonna go well, they'd
like to have the star coach Deon Sanders.

Speaker 3 (44:18):
Tune in our press conference week after week.

Speaker 1 (44:20):
They loved that bullshit. Uh so I don't think it's
about not liking Dion, but retroactively people have changed it
so that we can make it either a race thing
or Dion thing in their life. There's a conspiracy against
this boy. I think a very simple thing happened, and
it's one of those hush hush things you can't really

(44:40):
talk about because the people with this inside information can't
confirm it and the people on the outside, uh don't
want to hear it. But it sounds like because he
didn't have an agent, because his father was Deon Sanders,
was his agent.

Speaker 3 (44:56):
Agents exist in that role for a reason.

Speaker 1 (44:58):
Yes, they do, because agents are the people that find
out the bad shit as well as the good shit.
They don't just you don't blow smoke up. The agents
ask if you're not gonna draft his guy, because that
he has other guys in the draft and other people
you do want. You gotta be frank with him and
be like, hey, look, so Shader, we're not looking at
picking him in the first round. These are our reasons why.

(45:21):
And then they go back and then he'll work on
this and they hey, when you do this interview, you know,
maybe no shades inside, maybe.

Speaker 3 (45:29):
No, you know, they don't want to. They want to
know that you're gonna come in.

Speaker 2 (45:34):
This very seriously, be a professional.

Speaker 1 (45:37):
Yeah, when you come in, don't ask them what y'all
gonna do for me, not because that's not relevant, but
because like literally, cam Ward, the number one pick in
the draft, will not be asking that question because he
and he is, by every measure, a person they expect
to be better than you. And even he knows you
gotta kind of fit in and play the role. And

(45:58):
I think he just happened to be at an intersect
of not good enough to be that kind of arrogant.
And it's not like I said, it's not this. This
is why I say I can't dismiss Race from it
at all, one hundred percent. But he's not good enough
to be the type of arrogant that it seemed like
they said he was being in these interviews.

Speaker 3 (46:17):
But he's also not bad enough to go undrafted. Like
that's true too.

Speaker 1 (46:22):
Now, the other part of this is he if he
had zero talent, if they really thought this motherfucker couldn't play,
he wouldn't have got drafted by nobody, right, because it
would have been like he's an asshole and he's sorry.
But it's clear that they were like, there's potential here,
but we just don't want to deal with it on
our team, and then the next team and then the
next team.

Speaker 3 (46:43):
And I have to remind people. I think I said
it on the show already, but these are twenty nine
white dudes that are very rich and then the brown dude.

Speaker 1 (46:49):
Who's very rich. The racial animus is built in. These
are the people that wouldn't ta Kaepernick back on their team.
These are the people that wouldn't hire black coaches for
the longest time. These are the people being sued by
Brian Floor as a black coach. Like these individuals don't
even need to collude or get a phone call from
the NFL office.

Speaker 3 (47:10):
The NFL office is the one calling them, be like,
can y'all not be racist?

Speaker 2 (47:13):
Making they be like, calm down.

Speaker 1 (47:15):
You're making a block hot stop, And they're like, make me, bitch,
I make building Rick. I'm the one who owns the team.

Speaker 3 (47:22):
You're just a guy who works in the front office.
Roger Goodell, you.

Speaker 1 (47:25):
Can't make me do shit. And that's basically how they
treat that thing. So anyway, I think that's what you're seeing.
But mostly it's an inexorbitant amount of attention given to
it because it is a social media milestrem. It is
something that draws a lot of attention. And like I
said in the book, I'm reading digital madness. These algorithms

(47:48):
are serving us, over serving us, gluttonously, serving us to
make us think about and go back and forth on
these things constantly. And part of my rejection of of
that type of craziness has led me to just not
even want to discuss these things on social media because
I don't find it fruitful or genuine. I think a

(48:11):
lot of there's a lot of bad faith actors. The
same thing happened with angel Reaes. For me, there's a
lot of bad faith actors who are just getting content
and clicks off of it. And it's shameful because if
we can't do this with trivial things, we're never going
to be able to do this with important shit.

Speaker 3 (48:26):
But like politics is over with if we.

Speaker 1 (48:28):
Can't if we can't discuss page backers, then politics is over.
Then we definitely can't discuss you know, the right to
abortion on social media. But anyway, that's just dear thing
YouTube comments. We got WHOA fifteen three on the website
fifteen on here. Okay, Ramsey says five stars for the

(48:51):
old fashion. Since I've been reading The Best Man Unfinished Business,
I want to try a sidecar Johnny Armstrong's Jordan Armstrong's faith.
Oh my god, that Atlanta clip is hilarious. Thank you.

Speaker 3 (49:04):
Shout out to Sydney, says MS rolls.

Speaker 1 (49:08):
Hashtag d MDG, hashtag dad Mama and Daddy gang. If
you know, you know, it seems like that's pretty simple.
One we know what that means.

Speaker 3 (49:18):
Dark Damer says, I agree that Negro has lost his way.
Good shell. Thanks None, says on the Trump loyalist, Rob
was right.

Speaker 1 (49:26):
Rob was right.

Speaker 3 (49:26):
Rob was right.

Speaker 1 (49:27):
Don't believe any federal reports from any cabinet agency or
any subordinate agencies. If you do, then you are stupid
and deserve what fate comes upon you. I don't know
how you can trust it now.

Speaker 2 (49:38):
I don't, and it didn't have to be this way.

Speaker 1 (49:41):
They're firing people from the CDC, and I just saw
a report that RFK Jr. Isn't even taking his meetings
with the people that work at the CDC who are
there just to inform the person who's over, Like here's
what's happening in the world. He won't even meet with him,
so and then he's firing these people. So what meation
you could possibly come out of CDC now that I

(50:02):
could believe? And the reason I was so adamant about
liberal progressive people shitting on the CDC when Fauci was
there was because of this scenario that I saw coming.
I was like, no, this isn't the Wow. The CDC
is just a political organization that has no fucking stop.
Has always been neutral, right, but it's just it was

(50:24):
important to be like guys. Just because the CDC isn't
waking up every day trying to give you information to
make you feel the best about your life doesn't mean
that that that organization full of experts has no fucking
value or they just wake up and say any fucking thing.
You have to be careful. Because that is what MAGA believes,

(50:45):
that is what Trump believes, That's what Republicans believe, and
the reason they believe it is because they believe that
that is what those organizations should do. Meaning if I
am in charge, fuck your expertise. If I tell people
the virus ain't gonna kill nobody, y'all better go out
there and say that shit it, that's what the fuck?

Speaker 2 (51:01):
Y'all get fired even though people are dropping dead.

Speaker 1 (51:04):
Right and now we are in that scenario and I'm like, no,
this is We're in the endgame. Now, this is the.

Speaker 3 (51:12):
What what do you do when you can't trust the CDC?
This is that moment.

Speaker 1 (51:16):
It wasn't four years ago, it wasn't eight years ago,
it's today because now I'm like, I don't what organization
can you trust that it's appointed Trump loyalists. Y'all tell
me which which number y'all believe in for the next
five years? Four years? I don't know, Nick says, or
Rod and Karen, what if now is the perfect time

(51:36):
to have reality show to raise money for the school?

Speaker 3 (51:39):
Of course?

Speaker 2 (51:43):
Tell Jones, saijoin the truth and EMMLK Boulevard.

Speaker 3 (51:46):
Y'all keep letting Lumar get that check down.

Speaker 1 (51:49):
Christal says, yes, sir, A good old fashion with angels
envy is my favorite. Angels envy. Okay, I'm a type
of drink drink or it sounds like a porn star
from they talk for the three brand Brenda. Angels Envy's hilarious, Like, oh,
you ain't see that in that scene with carraenmel On

(52:09):
my favorite angels Envy Michael says, what happened to the
fiscal conservatives? They never existed as actually caring about how
the tax money was spent or invested for the whole country,
including their own district.

Speaker 3 (52:20):
The term fiscal conservatives.

Speaker 1 (52:21):
Started being used heavily during the time the Heritage Foundation
and other white nationalist groups were pushing and supporting Ronald
Reagan to run the writing off of the run, then
writing all of his policies and filling out his administration.
This was when they decided to not use the N
word to call us darkies, et cetera, and other ethnicities
other derogatory names.

Speaker 3 (52:40):
Remember, they were using the term welfare queens.

Speaker 1 (52:43):
Reagan's policies continued to get economic and resources out of
our urban and royal neighborhoods, so many black farmers and
farms got no financial help, unlike white farmers.

Speaker 3 (52:53):
Black farmers lost their land. His CIA brought it in drugs.

Speaker 1 (52:56):
Through the Iran Contra affairs.

Speaker 3 (52:58):
It was just white supreme.

Speaker 1 (53:00):
I'm seeing white nationalism cloaked in the idea of being
fiscally conservative when all they were investing less money U
with us I'm forty eight.

Speaker 3 (53:08):
And originally from South Carolina.

Speaker 1 (53:09):
I remember how tough it was for my uncles and
aunts to find work where we lived in the capital city,
and they all had skills. Their best options were to
continue working with my grandfather doing carpentry, plumbing, roof and
floor and building houses, et cetera. Or join the army,
your marines. That was it the only ways for it. Yeah,
I just liked that you wrote such a long, serious
answer to my obviously.

Speaker 3 (53:32):
Sarcastic question. That was the title of the episode. Where
the physical? Where the physical concern?

Speaker 2 (53:38):
You know what I can answer that question for.

Speaker 1 (53:40):
Everything you wrote is the subtext that was implied in
my question. But maybe maybe somebody needed to hear that.

Speaker 2 (53:47):
Somebody needed to hear today.

Speaker 3 (53:49):
Yeah, you didn't say anything. I didn't know.

Speaker 1 (53:51):
I just thought everyone knew those things, and then it
was implied in my Hey, what's up with them? People?

Speaker 2 (53:57):
Look at your in case you don't know, we got
some young youngsters.

Speaker 1 (54:00):
I wonder if Michael even listened to the episode, he
might have just saw the title ones like I got
the answer to.

Speaker 2 (54:04):
This, you out the way I got it, put out
the keyboard.

Speaker 1 (54:08):
He listened to the show later it was like, oh
they Oh, that was a joke. Christoph says, as soon
as you said black capitalism, I knew the pensive print
afaghanism was gonna be mentioned. He requested five hundred dollars
for a date with him. He must stay focused, brothers
and sisters. It's consciousness over cookies, politics over punini, business
before the bedroom Revolution of romance. Of course, at nineteen fifty,

(54:31):
when Karen said Trump not paying for anything, that reminded
me of the email we got Friday about volunteering for ice.
Damn you need volunteers for ice. Now they not paying them.
That makes sense.

Speaker 2 (54:43):
It wouldn't surprise me if after so long Nome people
start quitting because they ain't gonna able to get no paychecks,
because they ain't got unlimited money, and only certain people
gonna get paid there, it's gonna be volunteers.

Speaker 1 (54:52):
You know how much you have to hate Brown people
to volunteer for ice, volunteer to get not paid at all,
to be out here busting people families up and shit,
that's crazy.

Speaker 3 (55:04):
A lot of Damien says, a lot.

Speaker 1 (55:06):
Of HBCUs are also Hispanic servants, So it seems it's
always our turn.

Speaker 3 (55:10):
Yeah they are.

Speaker 2 (55:11):
Yep, Yeah, a lot of HBCUs serve a lot of
black and brown and underprivileged, and it's a lot of
white people to get degrees from us because we're actually
cheaper than the pwis on the average.

Speaker 1 (55:23):
Also, just that I just want to note that even
with you're saying that, I still expect that to be
a actual initiative against HBCUs like that, like this is
a trial run, but I think there will eventually be
a we don't want to fund HBCUs or in you know,
like these universities that serve black people, whatever they call it.

(55:44):
Jason says, Yeah, we all knew that people weren't going
to keep the same energy with Trump as they did
with bid It.

Speaker 3 (55:50):
I'm glad y'all are still calling it out though.

Speaker 1 (55:52):
Yeah, I'm mad, and I'm going to be mad probably
for the rest of my life. And as long as
people listen to the show, I'm not gonna drop it.
And so I understand if people don't listen to the
show or they skip it or whatever the fuck, but
this will always be relevant to me because and I
would listen if Kamla would have won. There's a whole
reality where I'm like, fuck, I was wrong, and I'll

(56:14):
probably be on this show every day going, man, I
really didn't think white people would support a black woman
for president, and I was wrong, and I have to
eat crow. And then when I bring up certain topics,
i'd be bringing up that too, because I try to
be honest about all of this stuff, but you can't
expect me to be right. We can't be right. And
then also too too big to talk about it. It's

(56:38):
coming up because it's relevant. If they would have listened
to us and or done what they promised they would do,
we wouldn't be here in this reality upset about Trump
second term. So I'm not gonna take the l on
that one and just take it quietly. I'm gonna be
loud about this hel.

Speaker 2 (56:55):
Right, And it's also it's also gonna be and for
me personally, it's don't be one of them things where
I had to live through anxiety like everybody else, because
you know, we getting information just like everybody else, and
we're getting the news and just like everybody else, and

(57:16):
when things happened, you can see righting on the wall.
You would have proved me wrong and voted, and she
would have been president, I'd be like, Okay, okay, white folks,
it don't mean you ain't racist, It just it just
means Trump was that terrible that y'all was like, okay,
that that's what that that's what that meant. But me,
I'm like, oh, I remember the first time, and the

(57:38):
second time it's gonna be worse.

Speaker 1 (57:39):
Bitch.

Speaker 2 (57:39):
What is we doing here? Why is we fucking around
the wise? We talking about everything but what we're supposed
to be talking about. Fuck Donald Trump? And people played
in my face, people gasling at me, people that like
I was crazy, People act like I was lunatic. Bitch. No,
I'm gonna carry this goddamn torch for f burr uh.

Speaker 3 (57:58):
He goes on to say, as somebody has to.

Speaker 1 (58:00):
It's always dims get judged for good things they didn't do,
and maga gets judged for the bad things they didn't do.
I seriously saw people theoretically on our side, giving Trump
credit for not escalating the situation. What I ran the
place he bombed. There's nothing we can do with these people.
Every time they'll put their self right, justnes over their neighbors.

Speaker 3 (58:17):
Medicaid.

Speaker 1 (58:17):
I'm trying to give doctor Umar a Little Grace, the
idea about having women on his show to showcase that
businesses could actually be beneficial. I was just advising to
read the fine print. They might unwillingly sign over ninety
percent of their profits by going on that show. I mean, listen,
if y'all want to give him grace, that's fine, that's
I'm just you know, that's not I'm not in the

(58:38):
business of I don't know. I just feel like maybe
because of the causes he says, he's with people just
constantly trying to find a way to be like, right,
this is it's not too bad. But I feel like
any anybody else we would have been said, this man
is either inept at what he plans to do or

(59:00):
or just a grifter. But somehow we're in year twenty
something of this experiment with him, and people just I
think they just like his charisma or something. They just
can't let it go.

Speaker 2 (59:09):
Yeah, it's something about him that pulls people in. And
I understand, you know, black people love black people, black
people support black people, but you can't do it to
your detriment.

Speaker 3 (59:19):
Have you been to a live comedy event this year?
Yes or no?

Speaker 1 (59:22):
Thirty five percent, Yes, sixty five percent. No, My question
is I wonder how many of the sixty five percent?
I hope they If you went to the Blackout Tips Live,
I hope you counted it because that was a love
comedy event with JL. It was Uh anyway, Let's go
to the next one episode thirty one forty nine Nashville

(59:48):
Hot Lead four comments. Ramsey d Jinging says five stars.
I protest the most popular American food list if you
asked the Blackout Tips chat room, I know that Taco's, Pizza,
fried rice, baby Shower, meat balls, fried chicken, mac of cheese, chicken, wings, ribs,
Sloppy Joe's, and Chicken and Dublins would be in the

(01:00:09):
top twenty five. I don't know if that exact list,
but like some of those were in there. Fried chicken
was in there for sure, as well as Southern fried chicken,
which was lower.

Speaker 3 (01:00:19):
But that makes no.

Speaker 2 (01:00:20):
Sense, right, it's all fried chicken, bitch.

Speaker 1 (01:00:22):
I think wings was on there, but yeah, that list
was wild. But the main thing is chicken salad was
not on that list. And I heard that the chicken
salad chick. I actually heard.

Speaker 3 (01:00:33):
It's good.

Speaker 1 (01:00:34):
People are hitting me up on Twitter to be like
it's really good. So I would definitely go in there
and try it. But it's just wild that, you know,
I've never the idea of creating a rest It's like
if you create a restaurant around living much, for me,
it's like, but who's gonna eat it?

Speaker 2 (01:00:53):
Who's gonna eat these multiple levels of living? And I'm
a fan.

Speaker 1 (01:00:56):
Of living Roger, that's my point.

Speaker 2 (01:00:59):
But I'm like, it ain't for so much you could
do with this bitch, Like living.

Speaker 3 (01:01:02):
Much is a thing you can have on your menu,
but it's not the thing.

Speaker 2 (01:01:05):
No, it's not.

Speaker 1 (01:01:07):
Just the same way. I'd be surprised there's a tuna
fish restaurant, like, yes, people eat tuna fish.

Speaker 3 (01:01:13):
There's no restaurants where it's like not.

Speaker 1 (01:01:15):
I shouldn't say no, but I can't imagine a chain
of restaurants where it's like, oh, you've been to tuna
fish cars, I'm gonna go get you some tuna fish calls. Man,
it's banging down there. It's like it's banging.

Speaker 2 (01:01:26):
If it was, everybody would know about that joint.

Speaker 3 (01:01:29):
But no, no, no, that's no, that's not the point.
I didn't know about chicken salad.

Speaker 1 (01:01:34):
Chick. You definitely didn't know because it was your thought
that was it was not good and that how could
it even be a restaurant. Turns out it's a chain.
Turns out it is good according to our fans. So
I'm saying, like, I don't even understand this restaurant idea.
They probably went out of business not because the food
was bad, but because who the fuck goes m can't
wait to get out the house and get some chicken

(01:01:55):
salad today? Just don't think so, I'll just says. When
the men is behind me on the walk, I started
to feel weird. Don't want to be suspicious, but it's
still a man, so I also don't want to die.
I do the thing where I go to the side
of the path turn around to fix my shoelaces so
I can see what the man is doing. He's trying
to tack me, and looking at him would give him
some chance to react, give me some chance to react,

(01:02:16):
and his potential surprise effect is broken. Oh to be
a woman in this world, Yeah, I think so. My
favorite story on this topic, I was going to walk
with my dog. The path is a forty minute loop.
At the beginning, there was a man acting strangely. He
was walking on the path of ten yards from one
side to another. Seemed to be waiting for something, probably
his next victim. He had a cowboy hat on. I
met her late his next victim. I met a lady

(01:02:37):
with a dog on the other side of the loop.
I warn't her about this man. She said, did he
look dangerous? That's my husband who hurt his foot and
is waiting for me. He walks from one side to
the other to improve it's hurt foot.

Speaker 3 (01:02:47):
Oh yes.

Speaker 1 (01:02:48):
I saw them both at the end of my walk,
looking at me and talking, and I pointed to them like, hey, friends,
wasn't this funny? But they didn't respond. In case you
were wondering, everyone the story was white. My bias was
anti men in general Germany. I assume they were white.
But yeah, I mean, honestly, you know, I think it

(01:03:08):
to me when I expressed those things. It's more funny
because I'm like, I'm you guys, listen to the show.
Y'all know I'm not one of these weird those and
I wouldn't. I mean, you assume I'm not.

Speaker 3 (01:03:19):
I don't.

Speaker 1 (01:03:20):
You can never really know a motherfucker who knows what
the fuck people get into. But in general, y'all know,
y'all know my demeanor, and y'all know that, if anything,
I'm the introvert that would like to be left alone.
And you're the one. You're most scanned than now have toy.
When that lady spread up, I was like, it made
me relieved too, Like I wasn't. I wasn't like your
racist bitch, Like I didn't come on here saying nothing

(01:03:40):
mean about that lady. I was like, oh, yeah, that
was like if it was awkward, but like, yeah, appreciate you.

Speaker 2 (01:03:46):
I don't.

Speaker 3 (01:03:46):
I was having anxiety about do I pass this lady?

Speaker 1 (01:03:49):
Why she walking so fucking slow, like I'm the slowest
walker out here, like you like, speed up, do something.
And she sped up and look back and well she
looked back and in sped up. But I was like,
and then she jogs and I'm thinking, oh, she's gonna
start jogging for you know, the next however many laps
and she's just like job twenty feet And was like, okay,
you can't just to make the dishance sneak up on

(01:04:10):
me now, right, he can't touch me twenty feet away? Yeah,
And like I said, because it's America and I'm black
and she was a white lady. I still will never
know if it came from like a I'm just a
lady and I would have done this to anybody, or
if it's like a white man, hey, buddy, come on past,
you want to walk with me on the hold hands.
I'll never know, and honestly don't really care. But it

(01:04:31):
was a thing to note. He says. I absolutely hate
when service don't write down orders because of my experience,
they always messed something up or forgot something. I don't
know if it's an ego thing on that part, but
I'm more annoyed if they don't write it down to
mess up as if they did, versus if they did
write it down to mess up, because the stakes happened.
But you can minimize them by writing an order, now, yeah,
pretty much.

Speaker 2 (01:04:51):
Yeah, and I agree, And it's just one of them things.
As somebody who served for many, many, many years, I
wrote shit down because I know it sounds simple. But
from the time you take that particularly if you do
something where you're taking multiple table orders, or even from
the time you take somebody order to the time you
walk to put it into the machine, if you don't

(01:05:12):
have like to, because this is before the handheld thinks.
Anything can happen. Somebody can bump you, somebody can say
something like it's anything that can make your mind slip
where you do not remember.

Speaker 1 (01:05:23):
And honestly, like, I don't think they always mess it up.
I think a lot of times they actually do get
the order right. But one hundred percent of the time
when I see them not write my order down, it
gives me anxiety that my order won't be right, which
is why I don't think it's worth it. Just write
it down for peace of mind for the customer as well,
because and I know that one person wrote in, because

(01:05:44):
there's always one person that disagrees with anything we say.
But in general, I think that one person is a
different type of person. That's like, how impressive you didn't
even write my order down and you still got it right.
I think the vast majority of us is like, why
aren't you writing this down right? Okay, So if it's right,

(01:06:04):
I'll just be relieved, but I won't be impressed. Yeah,
they'd be like, oh, thank god, you didn't fuck it up.

Speaker 2 (01:06:09):
And then if it's wrong, I'm gonna be upset and
I'm gonna remember you didn't write that shit down what
you like. That's what happens, you know, to me, because
I remember the one place me and Roger had went
to when she left, she went to the register and
she started doing other shit, and I was thinking, she
gonna fuck this up because you know, she didn't immediately
put it in. And for me, I appreciate the little

(01:06:32):
tablets you hold in your hand. Pour that bitch out
and start tiptapping in that because to me, that says
time that say trouble. Like I said, I'm the type
of person I would even prefer for you to repeat
my order back to me, because you know, people know this,
know that at this extra this to be sure you
got the ship right.

Speaker 1 (01:06:48):
Yeah, and also sometimes that now maybe this is a
benefit to them, but I hate it, but sometimes it'll
make me not order the thing exactly how I was
gonna order it, because I'm like, this motherfucker's not writing
it down. They're not gonna remember that. I'm like, no mayo,
extra mustard. They like, just bring it how it is. Then,
because I already know you're gonna bring it, it's gonna

(01:07:08):
have the mayo and no mustard, and it'll be like,
but I didn't want it this way, Now we gotta
add ten more minutes to bring it back or whatever
the fuck y'all do in the back, and it's just
and now I'm in a like a mood of like,
oh god, my Karen's even my food's not ready. So
now I gotta I gotta put in an order that's
just standard, because I don't think you're a genius likee whatever.

Speaker 2 (01:07:28):
Yeah, now we will change my order. Sometimes I'm like, okay,
you're not right, Okay, let me just go ahead and
order something. I know that this just just as he is.

Speaker 1 (01:07:36):
Like you said, let's see, Nashville Hot Lead had fourteen comments.

Speaker 3 (01:07:41):
Wow, all right, let's see it was into the hot
Lead apparently what is said on.

Speaker 1 (01:07:46):
YouTube, because I think that was everybody on this Yeah, okay,
fourteen comments. I wouldn't try chicken salad from anywhere outside
my house. Mine is top five, says provocative. Af Dark
Now just says he was lucky he was in Vermont,
not Testas Florida.

Speaker 3 (01:08:00):
Probably something for guests the race.

Speaker 1 (01:08:02):
EMK says, well, you know these people think being homeless
as a crime, so right.

Speaker 2 (01:08:08):
Right, and it's your fault that you that you're homeless.

Speaker 1 (01:08:11):
But also be careful with National Guard out there in DC, Like,
I bet they done already fuck them homeless people up
right away.

Speaker 3 (01:08:17):
That was probably the first thing they did.

Speaker 2 (01:08:18):
Yep, and down in tournament and not in determent camps.
But homelessness can say and they know to them that
them and them in tournament and homeless camps look the
same to them.

Speaker 1 (01:08:26):
And they gonna do that shit if they go to
these other cities like Chicago, they're.

Speaker 3 (01:08:30):
Gonna fuck up them homeless people. Uh, provocative AF says.

Speaker 1 (01:08:34):
Regardless regarding cash as bell, maybe they should use it
only for misdemeanor crimes, not potential felonies. Yeah, I don't
have the answers and was not even trying to provide
all the answers. And I know a lot of municipalities
already have a lot of stuff where it's like it
gotta be non violent, it gotta be this. All I
know is it's people. It's not the law. The law

(01:08:55):
in theory I think is very fair. I think we
shouldn't have cash bell from the vast majority of offenses
should not be cash bel offenses because it can fuck
someone's life up so bad off of just a small mistake.
But the wherewithal of the populace, of the social of

(01:09:15):
the society, of the citizens of the cities.

Speaker 3 (01:09:18):
That's that's where these things.

Speaker 1 (01:09:21):
Fall apart, is because we as people have not been
trained and we don't actually have a lot of respect
for empathy and understanding. A lot of us are mean, jealous,
petty people who are like, I follow the law, you
better not break the law that you deserve to be
in jail.

Speaker 2 (01:09:36):
You should be sure to do members. Then they want
to plead mercy whatever.

Speaker 1 (01:09:42):
I'm just saying, there's a general disdain that we tend
to carry with us as rule.

Speaker 2 (01:09:48):
Followers rule followers.

Speaker 1 (01:09:50):
That needs to kind of be softened a bit for
for people to not do shit like fire the you know,
basically vote for the next district attorney to be hard
on crime because a couple of right wing leaning stories, because.

Speaker 3 (01:10:05):
They're gonna happen.

Speaker 1 (01:10:06):
They're not gonna be fake. They're gonna happen because we're humans.
Some of these stories are gonna be the sensationalistic right wing.
You know, Candy, it's gonna be this guy jumped seventeen turnstiles,
but your local DA kept letting them out, and then
he fucking beat a puppy to death, and it's the
DA's fault because they just kept letting them out for

(01:10:28):
jumping turnstiles. Now, does that technically make a lot of
sense to.

Speaker 3 (01:10:31):
That overhaul all the ways we feel about cashles Bell.

Speaker 2 (01:10:34):
It shouldn't, but.

Speaker 1 (01:10:35):
There's an emotional narrative that people respond to it. It's like, yeah,
we gotta stop cashs Bell, we gotta be tougher on crime.

Speaker 3 (01:10:44):
And that's the part where this falls apart.

Speaker 1 (01:10:46):
So that's what I was thinking about, because they already
have a lot of this stuff in place where like,
if it's a violent felony, they can't there is no
cash for the right.

Speaker 3 (01:10:56):
But still, Alicia says.

Speaker 1 (01:11:00):
Ah, a white woman of color do love chicken salad
sandwich is like for lunch though, And we had that
place in Georgia.

Speaker 3 (01:11:05):
I tried it.

Speaker 1 (01:11:05):
It wasn't nasty, but not good enough for me to
go back, man, And yes, like another commenter said that
Dixie Chick, the Dixie Chick the cord did not help. Wait,
it's got Dixie stuff in there, I see. I've never
been in one, and the only one I really paid
attention to was the one that just closed, So I
guess I had to try this another location.

Speaker 2 (01:11:25):
And I'm pretty sure that big enough. Pretty sure it
got more than one Shane says.

Speaker 1 (01:11:29):
Comedian Mel Mitchell just did a video about how good
chicken salad chick was. Her friend was skeptical. She finally
tried it, and damn she said it was good. I
personally won't go there because looking at that menu, they
do have Confederate Dixie style chicken salad, and it's a
note for me, what the fuck is what?

Speaker 2 (01:11:45):
I'm confused? Now?

Speaker 1 (01:11:47):
What is even Dixie style chicken?

Speaker 2 (01:11:49):
Sally I dim and cracker barrel cousins. What's happening? He here?

Speaker 1 (01:11:54):
Chicken chicken salad chicks, Dixie chicks top seeking. I guess
on Reddit they telling you how to make it. I
guess so you can make it at home and I
support them or something, But wow, that's crazy. And now
I'm looking YouTube Dixie chicken salad, so there's also not
it's not chicken salad. It's a salad with chicken on it,

(01:12:17):
but they call it Dixie chicken? What makes it Dixie?
Is it?

Speaker 3 (01:12:19):
Extra racism in it?

Speaker 2 (01:12:21):
Right? Sprinkles smoke racism on it?

Speaker 1 (01:12:23):
You call the chicken the N word before you slaughtering.

Speaker 3 (01:12:27):
Was it Dixie.

Speaker 2 (01:12:29):
Less salt and pepper that it tastes some white supremacy? Right?

Speaker 1 (01:12:34):
Whoa how to make Dixie chick chicken South? So I
guess on YouTube, I mean TikTok, someone went and did
like a like a tutorial on how to make it.
I'm gonna watch this just because I need to know
what the fuck goes in it. It's like, Okay, first
of all, you put salt, no pepper. We all know

(01:12:55):
why no pepper because we don't mix the salt and
the pepper on this chicken. It's dick.

Speaker 4 (01:13:00):
Hi everyone, welcome to the Cunningham House. So I am
excited to try this recipe that I found. It is
a coffee cap recipe of chicken salad chicks Dixie chicken salad.
So did the Dixie chicken at chicken salad? Chicken is
my all time favorite. I love it on croissants and
I'm going to see if I can make it at
home to help me save a little money out there.

(01:13:22):
So this is what we're gonna need.

Speaker 1 (01:13:23):
We're gonna need.

Speaker 4 (01:13:24):
Two cups of rotisserie chicken, or it said one pound
of other chicken. So if you want to do your
own chicken and shred it.

Speaker 2 (01:13:31):
Go for it.

Speaker 4 (01:13:31):
I'm gonna use your tistrie.

Speaker 2 (01:13:33):
We're gonna need celery.

Speaker 4 (01:13:34):
Justin is not a big celery fan, so I'm a
little bit over a quarter cup of dice celery. We're
gonna need a half a cup of finely diced onion.

Speaker 1 (01:13:44):
I don't see what makes this Dixie me ei though.
I'm looking at the ingredients and these just look like
chicken salad.

Speaker 2 (01:13:49):
Of garlic, right, regular ass chicken salad.

Speaker 1 (01:13:53):
Yeah, I don't see any pepper yet, so maybe that's
maybe that's really the secret. They're like nothing.

Speaker 3 (01:13:59):
Blacks it all right.

Speaker 1 (01:14:02):
Well, I'm not gonna anyway. Thanks for the warning, guys.
That would have definitely thrown me off. Anytime I see
Dixie anything on a on a restaurant men, I'm like,
I'm all out.

Speaker 2 (01:14:14):
Ship should I went came through the back, though? What
is this?

Speaker 3 (01:14:17):
Is it okay that I sit down?

Speaker 1 (01:14:19):
Or what right should I stand?

Speaker 2 (01:14:21):
Outside?

Speaker 1 (01:14:22):
Chicken salad is what happens the leftover chicken. So when
they put getting left over? Where they getting the leftover
chicken from? Are they making chicken not just not to eat?
Making chicken salad? The next day no wonder it went out. Yeah,
I wonder, Yeah, what is the It's just left over

Speaker 1 (01:14:39):
Now that's where That's where the Dixie comes from. Uh
dark Nander says, good show, thanks, uh Servicepoonful.

Speaker 3 (01:14:46):
Says, Chicken salad Chick is delicious.

Speaker 1 (01:14:48):
Admittedly I only tried it because of other nearby options
or subway and sonic to anyone who's nearby, CSC Chicken
salad Chick didn't just close.

Speaker 3 (01:14:56):
Try to hollerpen your honey, You're welcome.

Speaker 1 (01:14:59):
All right, I'm gonna try We have other locations here
I'm going to I'm gonna try it. I won't get
the Dixie. Maybe I will get the Dixie, but i'll
make him feel bad like I guess I'll have the
Dixie Chicken. Now I start humming like a Negro spiritual

(01:15:19):
or something like.

Speaker 2 (01:15:20):
I'm like, sir, you're holding up the line.

Speaker 1 (01:15:23):
Change gonna come. Yes. Nobody said I'm so.

Speaker 2 (01:15:29):
Easy your hand.

Speaker 1 (01:15:32):
I was told by money to ask you about someone
running up on muzzy bogs. Oh man, all right, I'll.

Speaker 3 (01:15:40):
Tell the muggy story for you guys.

Speaker 1 (01:15:43):
So I played basketball a lot, especially like from like
twenty to like until the pandemic, I played basketball three
to five times a week.

Speaker 3 (01:15:54):
I'm still fat, but I was in.

Speaker 1 (01:15:56):
Better shape at that time. But anyway, I would play basketball,
and uh, you know you play basketball, you're running the
people all the time. David Wesley, uh, Blue Edwards, David
Baron Davis Like, but Muggy you know, he's like, uh,
he'd be in Charlotte all the time and sometimes he'll
come out and play ball.

Speaker 3 (01:16:14):
And he's older, but.

Speaker 1 (01:16:15):
He can still hoop against these you know, our caliber stuff, right,
give us the business if you want.

Speaker 2 (01:16:20):
To, yes, sir.

Speaker 1 (01:16:21):
So yeah, I play ball against Muggsy Bogus a couple
of times. And one time we were in the why
it was in the middle of the day, so it's
like lunchtime. He comes in and uh he starts shooting
around with us and then we're like, everybody's like, you
want to run, and so we get ten and we
start running. Me and my friend Derek were on the
same team. Derek is a hot head white dude. Uh

(01:16:42):
you know, love Derek, one of my favorite white friends
ever at for.

Speaker 3 (01:16:49):
So anyway, we go to play basketball.

Speaker 1 (01:16:54):
Derek's highead and Muggsy calls a foul, and Derek objects
to the foul in a Derek way like, come on,
that's bullshit, Muggy. You knows da da da da, And
Muggsy's like, you know, uh, I called foul.

Speaker 3 (01:17:10):
You know, check up.

Speaker 1 (01:17:11):
And Muggsy, if you've never seen him in person, if
you just seen him on TV, I know you think,
oh he's very small, blah blah blah. The thing I
noticed about Muggsy is that Muggsy's arms, his hands when
he just lets him down by side, his hands literally
are below his kneecaps. His arms are so fucking long,

(01:17:33):
and so don't let the fire too fool you because
them arms got that reach.

Speaker 3 (01:17:38):
And so Derek's like, you know, Muggies, like, give me
the ball. You know, I call foul.

Speaker 1 (01:17:44):
And he's like, oh, what what you're gonna do. Muggy's like, man,
give me give me a ball called you know, foul, man,
that's bullshit, Muggy. And then I think Derek either like
rolled the ball down the cord or rolled it that Muggsy,
And then Muggsy took offense to it and was like,
I will knock your big goo the white ass out now.
When he said this, and if you know who Muggsy is,

(01:18:05):
it's the first of all the Baltimore came out. This man.

Speaker 2 (01:18:09):
Oh yeah, he about that life.

Speaker 1 (01:18:11):
This is not the adorable mascot of them Charlotte Hornets.
This is the man who is five to and made
the NBA.

Speaker 2 (01:18:17):
Did probably had it with a lot of people's asses
in his lifetime.

Speaker 3 (01:18:21):
So that was the part that jumped out.

Speaker 1 (01:18:22):
But my favorite part of the story is if we
had a fuck, if this was Avid elementary, Okay, the
documentary cameras would have done this move where it's you
see Muggsy say that, but then it would zoom over
in the background and focus on the fact that there
were about ten to twelve children who the class had

(01:18:47):
been so enamored at seeing Muggsy Bowls play basketball. They
had essentially walked in the door and the person that
would either the teacher or the chaperone or whoever, they
were waiting for us to finish so the kids could
talk off the Muggsy and they just watched the doorable
Muggsy bugs threatened violence on this on this white boy,

(01:19:10):
and unprepared their mouths was wide open. Dog I I
had an outer body experience because I had to. I
went up to Derek and I'm like, Derek, calm down,
like it's it's daytime basketball against muggsy bugs. Who even
gives a fuck if we win this game?

Speaker 2 (01:19:28):
Like this like we're is not.

Speaker 1 (01:19:30):
This is just like a fun thing. You know. I
want to win too, but like, mother fucker, chill out.
And then he's like I'm uh and so uh. They
go back and forth a little bit because because Darre's like,
what you want to do, what you want to do,
I'm like, dude, chill out. Man, it's muggsy and muggies
like uh uh, you know, like I don't give a fuck,

(01:19:51):
I'll knock you out whatever, And I go, what about
these kids? And then either I can't remember it's Derek
or Muggy, but they were basically like, fuck them kids,
And I was like, you in trouble.

Speaker 2 (01:20:03):
Everybody say fuck them kids.

Speaker 1 (01:20:05):
You in trouble. It did end up eventually de escalating,
like ninety percent of basketball fights TODE, but when we
were on the sideline later, I couldnot let Derek live
it down because I was like.

Speaker 3 (01:20:16):
Yo, Muggy was about to whoop your ass in front.

Speaker 1 (01:20:18):
Of those kids.

Speaker 2 (01:20:19):
Hear you the business.

Speaker 1 (01:20:20):
And there's like, what, no, I was gonna whoop his ass?
And I was like, Okay, best case scenario, you whoop
Muggsies ass in front of a bunch of innocent kids.
That's the best case scenario. Worst case scenario, which is
the one.

Speaker 3 (01:20:32):
I think was about to happen.

Speaker 1 (01:20:33):
You was gonna get your ass whoop because you didn't
have respect for the fact that this five foot two
grown ass man who.

Speaker 2 (01:20:41):
Probably can bench press your weight.

Speaker 1 (01:20:43):
I don't know how strong, I don't know what. I
just know that that man is not a stranger of fighting.
And every part of that you knock your big, goofy
white ass out that came out of him made me
be like, yup, I believe that man can do what
he just said he.

Speaker 2 (01:20:59):
Could do, and I'm I'm not gonna challenge it.

Speaker 1 (01:21:01):
And just because you're my friend, I'm not gonna sit
up here lie in your face. I'm not that kind
of friend, just.

Speaker 2 (01:21:07):
Gonna watch you go down and pick you up like
I guess we're gonna go down on down the Presbyterian sir.

Speaker 1 (01:21:12):
Yeah, And I one hundred percent was not gonna help
you in that fight because I'm not helping jump Muggy
in front of some kids. And I'm also not getting
my ass whooped second in front of a bunch of kids.
But anyway, that's the story that's hilarious provocative. AF says,
what up riding car chicken salad is fire? I put
that ship on everything.

Speaker 2 (01:21:34):
Okay, yeah, we got to put that.

Speaker 1 (01:21:36):
Put that on the list, all right, And just don't
forget guys, it's Muggsy Tyrone Bogues. Oh okay, I know
that was his name. Muggy a nicknamed Tyrone. That man
named and the Tyrone jumped out. That man said I
will knock her, big goofy white ass out. I said
he will, that Tyrone will do that. Maybe that's what

(01:21:59):
I should have said.

Speaker 3 (01:22:00):
I should have been like, whoa, whoa, Derek, that's Tyrone.

Speaker 1 (01:22:03):
Maybe he would have took it. He would have took it.

Speaker 2 (01:22:06):
Seriously.

Speaker 1 (01:22:08):
Welcome back to the cookout, Mark Maren says, Hugh Gordon
and uh Kat B from DC says the problem with
cash bell is that it's disportioned disproportionately hards people would
limited financial resources who are unable to pay. So it's
not really about the crime as much as it's about
punishing the poor Kalif Brower story should be one of
be one of the arguments for cashless Bell. Cat be

(01:22:32):
I'm already on your side. You've gotta convince me. I'm
with it. Like I said, my problem is honestly the
wishy washiness of our fellow citizens, right. I don't need
to be convinced. If they put it on the ballot,
I would vote for cashless Bell. I'm okay with it,
and I understand the headaches and the problems is gonna
come with. But what often happens is that people present

(01:22:56):
the status quote as headacheless because they're hoping that most
of us will end up in that system. And sometimes
so most of us won't. We're not worried about the
unfairness of the system, but what I see it is
is trading one headache for another. So I think a
society where a person is only accused of a crime,

(01:23:17):
maybe didn't even commit it ends up losing everything because
it's legal to throw them in jail until they have
enough money, and it fucks their whole life up and
all the repercussions. I think that headache is worse than man.
They got a guy who keeps jumping the turnstyle or
they got a guy like you know, broke broke kept

(01:23:37):
breaking into cars like it sucks, like if you had
your car broken into, it makes you mad. It's a
human It feels like the worst thing ever. But at
the same time, theoretically I can take two steps back
and be like, Okay.

Speaker 3 (01:23:51):
The alternative is that sometimes people.

Speaker 1 (01:23:54):
Are gonna be locked up they didn't do anything and
fuck their life up, versus a couple more cars may
be broken into before this guy goes to trial, and
you know, so it just sucks. It's not there's no right,
good answer that makes everyone feel great. But yeah, like
you said, I would like to live in a world
where there's no Khalif Brouder story. That to me is

(01:24:15):
a better world than the one where my car got
broken into. And I hate that, you know, I agree.

Speaker 3 (01:24:21):
Anyway, Let's go to the to the pole.

Speaker 1 (01:24:25):
And male NFL cheerleaders yes or hated it?

Speaker 3 (01:24:33):
Ninety percent of our artist Yes, I'm having a frond
with it.

Speaker 1 (01:24:36):
Four pted It didn't say why, of course, uh, but
they don't like it for some reason, probably been a
probably been confusing their penis. All right, let's get to
a break all right, last episode of the week is

(01:25:22):
successful Failure where we had Kevin Stage on that Yes,
it's always great when he stops by. Man love that dude.
I don't know know him, but I genuinely root for
that dude's success.

Speaker 3 (01:25:35):
I truly feel I would.

Speaker 1 (01:25:37):
He's one of those people where I really would be
shocked if he turned out to be a bad person,
Like I would.

Speaker 2 (01:25:42):
Be like, what's happening?

Speaker 3 (01:25:44):
Like just uh, like I said, anyway, big fan of his.

Speaker 1 (01:25:49):
The comments Oba says in defense of the dental artist. Now,
glue is the strongest glue known in humanity. Don't check
please right now? See you don't activated Sean, no, right,
Actually it is the glue that clams shoes to seal
their shell sut oh some shit. We have a repair headphone,
shoes and curtain holders with it. It works for years already.

(01:26:11):
It might still stick with the person's body when the
pot while their body has decomposed. Otherwise, really, what the
fuck is nail glued? Like the glue that go on
people nails is the strongest glue. Wow, that's crazy. I
would have never thought that because I'm like, how the
fuck do they nails?

Speaker 2 (01:26:31):
That's not how they stay on yeah, but I was thinking, like,
how you get them off. You dissolve them.

Speaker 1 (01:26:36):
You have to dissolve the glue. Oh okay, all right.
Ms Bard says, it's always a great time when Kevin
Stage is on. The man has really become the hardest
working man in show business. I know I could feel
him like being sleepy during the show, somewhat like like
I could feel like his energy being like, Okay, I
need the rest at some point, but I'm gonna fight
my body to finish this.

Speaker 2 (01:26:57):
Show and then I'm going only taking a nap.

Speaker 1 (01:26:59):
He was at home, probably he's like, I'm gonna just
lay here on the floor. Even he says, I'm a
big fan of cap on stage and following him since
early YouTube video, so happy for all his success. Every
topic you brought up in this episode was so interesting
and funny. I think you covered the story on fake
veneers before, and I knew it was a matter of
time before the law caught up with one of these
con artists. But I'm totally victim blaming. If you go
to someone called teeth by Maria, did you deserves.

Speaker 2 (01:27:24):
Because most dentists go by like they name that's like
the name of the dentists office, whatever their name is.

Speaker 3 (01:27:29):
Yeah, I forget where it's like.

Speaker 1 (01:27:31):
Also like and maybe it's like hustle culture shit Instagram
stuff and I'm just in denial. But you can't be
like it's me the tooth boss. Like I don't want
a cool dentist.

Speaker 2 (01:27:43):
I don't. I want my dentists to be boring as
shit because they because they're doing their job.

Speaker 1 (01:27:48):
You know what I want to actively think when my
dentist is in my mouth. I want to think to myself,
I bet this nigga didn't get no pussy, honest to god.
I don't want I want me. I want to think
this man listens to Beethoven in the car or a woman,
you know whatever. I want to think they are not cool.
I want to be like this dnnist was a loser.

(01:28:10):
All they did was think about teeth and how people
was like, you want to come to the party. We're
going plaque, We're going drinking after after after, and they
was like.

Speaker 2 (01:28:18):
No, the sugar destroys your teeth.

Speaker 1 (01:28:21):
I'm gonna get into the I'm gonna get into these
teeth diagrams. I'm gonna I'm gonna, I'm gonna do one
more practice cleaning on one of these skeletons, Like.

Speaker 2 (01:28:31):
That's we're gonna get in the tarter talk tonight.

Speaker 1 (01:28:33):
Yeah, that's what I want. That's what I want. I
want that person when they do go out with y'all,
y'all be like, oh God, don't bring Barry out again,
because all he want to do is talk about dentistry
and like we're out here trying to get hoes and
drugs and have fun and get drunken.

Speaker 2 (01:28:51):
All he doing by our oral health. Get out of here, sir.

Speaker 1 (01:28:55):
You bring up flossing one more time tonight, I will
smack the ship out Berry. That's what I want. No cool.
Last Instagram influencer asked Dennis, Right, you tells.

Speaker 2 (01:29:06):
Somebody that about to form what is that?

Speaker 1 (01:29:08):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (01:29:09):
Tonsladis and some shit Get out of here, sir.

Speaker 1 (01:29:11):
Honestly, the cracker barrel isn't good because it's so bland.
They could have updated the crack on the barrel like
they did with Aunt Jamama back in the day. Remember
when they removed her head Scarford gave her a perm.
They could have given the white dude a sports jacket
or some j's that I do wish. I let Larry
I think they fucked up. And here's why I think

(01:29:31):
they fucked up, not not because of the racial I like,
I obviously don't care enough one way or other.

Speaker 3 (01:29:36):
I don't eat there enough. And I think the breakfast
I had was good, but I.

Speaker 1 (01:29:41):
Don't like swear by it.

Speaker 2 (01:29:42):
It's not in a while.

Speaker 1 (01:29:44):
But anyway, my point is I think they should have
leaned into how fucking ridiculous this was. And I get it.
This is why I would never be CEO because the
second of that, the second of that stock dropped twenty percent.

Speaker 3 (01:29:58):
The jokes were over right, it was to be.

Speaker 1 (01:30:00):
Serious, but I personally would have been like, you know what,
fuck it. Let's say the logo is back. But then
but we're gonna start making memes of the logo. So
now the new logo is just the dude, we're not
even gonna put the words cracker, barrel. And they were like,
is this is this right to this? Make it happy?
And then everybody's like, no, that's the worst version. Just

(01:30:21):
make it back like it was. And then the next one,
I was just like, cracker, just the word. The next one,
you know, picture of a barrel, you know, like the
next one is like a picture of a barrel that's opened.
Inside of it is crackers, like like the actual food crackers.

Speaker 2 (01:30:38):
That's hilarious.

Speaker 1 (01:30:40):
I would just keep going, man, cause like this is stupid,
ain't it though? And it's sad that our real world
like stock market shit, which is also kind of I mean,
it's also condstupid. You can make money off it, but
it's also like as a concept, it's also kind of
a wild concept. But anyway, but it shouldn't be this serious,
and I wish they had leaned into the fact that

(01:31:01):
this shit is not that serious.

Speaker 3 (01:31:02):
But they fucked up. By I mean fucked up.

Speaker 1 (01:31:04):
They did the right thing, the responsible thing of being like,
oh my god, that none of this was the point.
Please would just leave it alone because it was not
like everybody divided into right and left. But honest to god,
it's not like I don't think anyone truly had beef
one way to other with the old logo.

Speaker 2 (01:31:23):
No, I didn't have a problem with it, and it's
been that for decades.

Speaker 1 (01:31:26):
Yeah, nobody was demanding anything. It's just kind of wild anyway.
John Baby John says Kev's comment about the stadium access
celebrities gets for my get get the stadium that the
stadium access to celebrities get reminded me of my time.

Speaker 3 (01:31:42):
As vice president at SEC School.

Speaker 1 (01:31:44):
As a VP, part of my job was the chaperone
important people at football games. This meant I had to
access to parts of the stadium reserve for very rich
alumni and gas.

Speaker 3 (01:31:52):
In those enclays, the food.

Speaker 1 (01:31:53):
Is on another level and the decorps was both opulent
and offensive in my opinion. This was also before NIL
did and when someone tried to tell me players shouldn't
get paid, I cut them off quick. I know how
much money at home football game and the SEC generates,
not just for universities but for local economies to hotels, airbnbs,
bars and restaurants. Yeah. Man, I've been on that, so yeah,

(01:32:15):
I'm with you. By the way, I'm also an introvert.
Obviously I can be hospitable when necessary, but I hated
that part of my job and always left after halftime.
Feel you on that hanging out with the thing for me,
hanging out with college football fans and honestly college sports fans.

(01:32:35):
I still will say to this day, NBA fans best fans. Now.
It's not close to me live events just in general,
and I'm not saying the NBA social media especially doesn't
have sesspool pieces of shit on it, but just in general,
the likelihood of me sitting next to a person I
would never want to be next to is so much
lower at NBA game than any other sports. And college

(01:32:59):
basketball and foot fotball you think would be high up
there because they're very similar. Except I remember going to
a couple of college basketball games and I realized almost immediately,
me and the person that both have on the same jersey,
we're not rooting for the same thing.

Speaker 2 (01:33:13):
No, we're not.

Speaker 1 (01:33:14):
Like, I see these kids as human beings, and I
think that's more important than whether the fucking team wins
or not, Like, like I want to win, yeah, but
I'm like, like, I'm not gonna disrespect the young man
because to.

Speaker 3 (01:33:27):
Me, he could be one of my family members. My
cousin Anthony went.

Speaker 1 (01:33:31):
To Georgia Tech and became an NBA player, Like, that's
not that far removed from me the idea that someone
like this exists, whereas some of these people, man, they
talk to him like they're fucking like, they just talk
down to him, And it has a lot of racial
overtones with these you know sports with the sports of
college football and basketball. And so I can I feel you,

(01:33:55):
meaning like, I can see how you can think to
yourself logically, yeah, they shoul really pay these players. That's
common sense. And then one of these people is like,
that's not that's the opposite.

Speaker 3 (01:34:05):
A while like this game. I like it because they.

Speaker 1 (01:34:08):
Don't get money because they broke, and I think we
can't ship, we can't find a way to pay them anyway,
I'm a booster.

Speaker 3 (01:34:15):
Here's a million dollars for the new weights or whatever like.

Speaker 2 (01:34:18):
And when you hear the stories, they be all over
the place. You know, you hear the a lot of times,
the students coming out and they're being a go by
women and things like that, and the men doing it
to the you know, the women and things like that.
So when you hear about that stuff, it's like, oh,
these are this is property to you. This you don't
really look at them as human beings.

Speaker 3 (01:34:39):
Uh and uh let's see.

Speaker 1 (01:34:42):
Oh and then okay, so YouTube, now a lot of
these are just stage crew emoji posts.

Speaker 2 (01:34:48):
That makes sense.

Speaker 1 (01:34:49):
Stagerew gonna always show up, but I'm gonna we got
a lot of comments on this on eighteen Here we go,

Speaker 1 (01:35:15):
PhD in common sense, Oh my god, the crossover episode
I never knew I needed. I love when y'all don't
know who we're also cool with, and so that when
we have them on, it's a little treat for y'all
that they Oh, they're all so cool. They're cool in
real life with each other. That's the best, honestly, because
there's a lot of people we don't have on the show,
you know, because we try to keep it honest. And

(01:35:36):
I'm like, while we had this person on the show,
you know, they say a bunch of shit that we
don't agree with. They we say a bunch of shit
they probably don't agree with, right, So it's cool whenever
there's people out there, like man, I bet they would
get along. It's like they get along. And you can
check out all the old episodes they've been on. PhD
in common sense oh wait, I'm sorry. Strength from Within

Speaker 1 (01:36:21):
What a fun podcast, says Tenya. Missus h I it
might be I be I dB or LdB. I love
when all my podcast homies in my head come together.
Thank you. Reese says three lasting laughing emojis for stage
crew emojis. The Girl on the Other side of the
Road says the reason you don't see any clips of

(01:36:42):
Jennifer Hudson's show other than the tunnels because she's so
bad at interviewing. Like Jennifer Hudson talks to people like
that slow and keep asking the same question. Ted talks,
I haven't watched it. I haven't watched it. I was
just making a joke, Jennifer. If you need to interview me,
I'll come on there. I'll even pretend to be slow.
I don't care. I support you and shout out to
comment stage Crow emojis for Joey the Trim says, I'm

(01:37:07):
a hybrid of the stage crew and the Blackout Tips crew.
This was everything hard emojis yays.

Speaker 3 (01:37:15):
MS Road says Tipper Crew, Oh yeah, I guess yeah,
maybe we do need a crossover name Tipper Crew.

Speaker 1 (01:37:21):
Jason says Man keV approached the guest the race game
like seven. That man was focused. He didn't just give
it as he showed his work. Hai, great episode.

Speaker 3 (01:37:29):
I'm showing your work, honestly, dog.

Speaker 1 (01:37:32):
I loved that. I love that. I love when we
get someone who is familiar with the game or familiar
with the podcast and they take Guess the Race serious,
you know, and I get it like it depending on
the person, you know. I'm not trying to make anyone
be who they aren't. So if you're a you know,
like when Mike Caplan's like purple, I'm like, I get it.

(01:37:54):
Mike Caplin is such a fucking good egg. He don't
even want to like joke ass.

Speaker 2 (01:37:58):
He's like, uh uh.

Speaker 1 (01:37:59):
Yeah, he's hilarious. Yeah, and I and I, you know,
I respect that. I'm not gonna My goal isn't to
like make people uncomfortable. But I also do love when
peoples like you. No, I don't play the game. Now. Look,
playing the game doesn't mean you gotta do all the
racial slurshit. You could just be like, you know, black, white,
you know, Asian or whatever. But I do love when
people like show the work, deduce it. Tell me why

(01:38:21):
that's that was fun? The pole the new Cracker Barrel logo.
Love it, dislike it because it's woke, dislike it for
other reasons, or I don't care one way to the other.

Speaker 2 (01:38:30):
I don't care one way.

Speaker 1 (01:38:32):
The eighty six percent of the audience agrees with you.

Speaker 3 (01:38:34):
They don't care.

Speaker 2 (01:38:35):
It's the black people that got mad. Most people are like,
it's black people that love Crackerbarrel Gonne, we don't care.

Speaker 1 (01:38:41):
Fourteen percent of the audience does dislike it for other reasons, though,
which makes sense. I did see people on line that
were like, I'm not racist. I just think this the
minimalist logo shit has played out and they should have
just left it like it was. But that means two
other categories, love it or dislike it because it's woke.
Got zero. Nobody thought that was why they didn't fuck

(01:39:03):
with it, right, all right, let's get into the emails.
But first up beat, no voicemails, three emails and nothing

(01:39:47):
in the physical mail. Okay uh Keana says hey, Rod
and Karen. As a DC native, I have always said
that on a good day, nowhere in the world feels
like DC. But on a bad day, nowhere the world
feels like dcine the tangerine tented terrorists has definitely engaged
in some nasty work since being elected.

Speaker 3 (01:40:08):
Oh the title of this was my city don't feel
like home. The Data National Guard was deployed into the city.

Speaker 1 (01:40:13):
I cried thinking about my dad telling me about being
a little boy when doctor King was murdered. He described
me the confusion and fear he felt watching tanks ride
up the street past his house.

Speaker 3 (01:40:23):
He was only eight years old.

Speaker 1 (01:40:25):
At the time. Now his grandson six and four get
to see the same thing. And this shit is all again.
Of these people, the new b DC transplants, who won't
be here for more than ten years, who are afraid
of everything and everybody, won't they increase police presence, but
the OG's notice is not a good move. They are
harassing the homeless and throwing their tents and belongings away.
I knew it with no housing, food, or financial resources

(01:40:47):
to help folks, right, they cut those things and then
they probably gonna throw these people in jail or something.

Speaker 2 (01:40:52):
Yep, flitering.

Speaker 1 (01:40:53):
They are making our teenagers and everyone in general feel
unsafe and uncomfortable. They don't want us to feel ownership
of the place, and they have called the home for decades.
And our crime stats, which were at a thirty year low,
are now being ratcheted up because they are making frivolous
arrests and flooding the courts. You know what I was thinking, man,
And obviously there's history and there's a bunch of reasons

(01:41:14):
this can't happen. But could y'all imagine a world where
you had a well meaning president who saw a city
in catastrophe or something like not even that, I don't
mean like this crimes free thing, but just let's say
like one of our major cities is just it's overflooded
with homelessness or it's overflooded with something, and they just

(01:41:38):
send the National Guard in with no guns to be like,
help this city and helping might be cleaning up this
area of the city. It might be you know, helping
build something you know like, oh, we're building, you know,
habitat for humanity, We're building our national What are you
doing with your weekends for the National Guard. Yeah, we're

(01:42:00):
all going to help build community centers all over the country.
We're sending people to different cities that we typically shit
on and say they're rundown or whatever. We're gonna put money,
in time and resource and manpower into things that would
edify this city. We're cleaning up apart this week because
I saw that some of this stuff is what they're doing.
But the reason they're doing is because there's no fucking

(01:42:21):
crime there.

Speaker 2 (01:42:22):
There's nothing else to do.

Speaker 1 (01:42:23):
They have people just there. They're not really they're they're
paying them on that twenty nine dollars thing, a twenty
nine day things, so that I have to pay them
like any overtime or give them any health care and
all this shit. What Yeah, yeah, because if you keep
their deployment till under thirty days, you can like keep
from like something with the National Guard where you actually at.

Speaker 2 (01:42:43):
The pay point then stayed what they were.

Speaker 1 (01:42:46):
So now I did see some things that it was
like the National Guard was cleaning up this, and they
were picking up that, and I was like, yeah, but
you know what that isn't a I don't have a
problem with the National Guard doing that now, but they're not.
They're they're there first to intimidate and scare the citizens
of DC. Yes, they are over this crime.

Speaker 3 (01:43:05):
Lie that is happening.

Speaker 2 (01:43:06):
And I bet you a lot of it. I was
just spent doing nothing.

Speaker 1 (01:43:09):
Yeah, so it was kind of interesting. I was like,
what if we lived in a kind Fantastic four like
world where you deployed the National Guard just to help.

Speaker 3 (01:43:17):
And I don't mean, like I said, not catastrophes. I'm
not saying like.

Speaker 1 (01:43:20):
Obviously you should help send the National Guard in whatever
if there's a catastrophe, but like, just hey man, we're
just sending you to Saint Louis. They got some city
projects and they don't got enough people to volunteers to
do it.

Speaker 3 (01:43:34):
That's what y'all doing this weekend.

Speaker 2 (01:43:35):
I'd rather my tax money go to y'all, like going
around a country beautifying or you know, collecting trash you
or them adopted highways shit, Yes.

Speaker 3 (01:43:44):
Like, oh god, this country.

Speaker 1 (01:43:47):
I try not to hold on the negative feelings for
too long because I have a way of physically feeling
what I do but I cannot wait move past being
pissed and hurt that this is happening, because it didn't
have to be this way. VP A VP Kamala had
literally said this man was going to turn the military
loose on Americans, and some Americans and even some newspaper
said she was being hyperbolic. Yeah, I saw like maybe

(01:44:08):
the Hill or something and that whatever it was like
a headline that was like the latest lie, Kamala Harris
is saying Trump will turn the military on you. Oops,
can we get a retraction? Where's that? Arthur at and
now that is happening. None of them are copping to
the fact that they enabled this man to be discusseding
violent and fectless. It makes me sick. I lived just

(01:44:29):
outside DC now and the ice FBI has been in
my community five times now. Quite a few of my
neighbors in my community have been deported.

Speaker 3 (01:44:35):
It just sucks ass. Anyway, I love y'all.

Speaker 1 (01:44:37):
I'm happy that I can always tune in here and
find a little bit of levy and humor.

Speaker 3 (01:44:40):
Yeah, I'm sorry for DC man, Sorry you going through that.

Speaker 2 (01:44:44):
Yeah, you know, I'm sorry for that. My heart got
my heart posed out to the people basically in the
whole d MV area because all y'all are you know,
all y'all are basically connected and impacted by all of
these things happening. And also my heart goes out to
a lot of a restaurants is going to close because
they're only gonna be able to take so much of

(01:45:04):
reservations getting canceled, tourism not coming in. You know, a
lot of these places are LGBTQ friendly and they're not
coming around. A lot of these places depend on where
you're located at specialized in like you know, Mexican Latinos.
All the people he quote unquote hate them. People are
gonna be like, well, I'm gonna stay my ass home.
I'm just gonna go somewhere else. So it's you're getting

(01:45:26):
ready to see a high shortage increase of restaurants is
gonna close and they're never coming back.

Speaker 1 (01:45:34):
The next email is from Leslie who says Falling, Hello,
Rod and Karen, I heard y'all mentioned falling with Brandon
Collins was when he was on and Lit Up because
we covered that online and my cousin's podcast, the Peach
Pod after Dark. It's a sister podcast to the peach
Pot where we discussed Beverly Hills nine or two one
oh through my fresh eyes and a twenty twenty five lens. Anyway,

(01:45:59):
I know y'all are busy, but I hope you'll give
this a listen and share a laugh with us over
this dark movie. And she put like a YouTube link.
I put it in the chat for y'all to look
at if you like to in the chat. But yeah,
that's cool, man, sounds like a fun spin off idea.
Let's see Smith Jeff Smith. Oh shit, I'm bad Jeff

(01:46:20):
in Japan. I mean, well, thank god it's Smith, right,
who's gonna track you down?

Speaker 2 (01:46:24):
It has a very generic name, my bad Jeff.

Speaker 1 (01:46:27):
I'm so sorry, Jeff, says hi Rod and Karen. How
you're from Osaka, Japan? Working in work is busy and
I haven't written in a long time.

Speaker 3 (01:46:35):
I had to say thanks for all you dude.

Speaker 1 (01:46:37):
With this cast, you are bringing sandy to people who
now made to wonder if it's them of the world
that's in bad shape. You reafirm people that they're not
crazy nor stupid. Thanks. That's a big part of why
we do what we.

Speaker 2 (01:46:48):
Do, yep, because all the feelings and emotions and things
that y'all go through. We go through those things too,
and it feels good when you can listen to somebody
and everything that you know, that you see and you
know that you feel, and you know that it's real.
You get confirmation in it that you are not alone.

(01:47:11):
And so on.

Speaker 1 (01:47:11):
That chat said that headline title I read about the
latest Camala's latest lie from the Hill was the paper
the authors from the Daily Caller, and he refused to
ad meet he's wrong, so of course, But back to Jeff,
I had to say, thanks for all you do, Bo.
I'm proud to say that the man who pesters you
with the pesky emails of layers of info is Sean.

(01:47:34):
Sean is a very close friend who introduced me to
you guys all those years, all these years ago.

Speaker 3 (01:47:39):
Best gift and show of consideration any friend could have given.
Oh that's nice. Uh does is he like that in
real life?

Speaker 1 (01:47:47):
Are y'all able to just have conversations or is he
constantly just like hitting you with wikipedia interest?

Speaker 2 (01:47:53):
I got some open right, that's hilarious.

Speaker 3 (01:47:56):
Like what did you get to eat at the cafeteria?

Speaker 2 (01:47:58):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (01:47:58):
I got some tater types? Oh, you know, potato ties.

Speaker 3 (01:48:01):
They were actually called potato totato. It was invented in
eighteen oh four.

Speaker 1 (01:48:09):
Do you know a strange coincidence where man smashed potatoes
around the campfire and they fell into some grease.

Speaker 2 (01:48:17):
And that's how they came up with potato flower.

Speaker 1 (01:48:22):
Politics Till We Get Mad as a bittersweet section that
is sorely necessary, takes less and less time to get angry,
right some days, just.

Speaker 2 (01:48:31):
You depend on what the topic is.

Speaker 1 (01:48:33):
I can, like, I could technically make it through a
bunch more articles, but honestly, why we did it. It'll
be more tomorrow. It's like suveling. It's like shoveling shit.
It's just it's never stopped. Yeah, it's just ship is
still coming. It's just never gonna We're just shoveling.

Speaker 3 (01:48:52):
Like some of this we have to save.

Speaker 1 (01:48:57):
He says that it is pretty much for place fucking
with black people, because it is all fucking with us
eight that some ship it really is. There's some days
while I'll be like, next segment, fuck with black people, don't.

Speaker 2 (01:49:08):
Like no, no, no enough, I'm not gonna double.

Speaker 1 (01:49:13):
Dep why yeah, And because I had to switch over
to a different platform to save articles technically a lot
of those old articles. I still do have the links
to them, but they're not saved on my computer in
that way. So it's actually been a little refreshing to
be like cool, I'm not even gonna keep scrolling back
to twelve months ago when they would fugle black people

(01:49:34):
eight years ago, so you know, fresh start start building
another long ass list of shit I don't want to read.
And with all love, I send this which is enough
to make me mad this morning over here. Oh and
it's a it's us an article I'm gonna cover when
we do fuck uh politics. Do we get mad at

(01:49:56):
some points? Okay, so we'll just do it.

Speaker 2 (01:49:59):
Then I will continue to be not ready for it.

Speaker 1 (01:50:04):
All right, y'all, that's it. Thanks for listening to us
and hanging out with us live on the Crowdcast. Always
fun to see you guys, comments and whatnot, and we'll
be back throughout the week. I'm contemplating taking a week
off here soon at some point, but I don't want
to do it. Probably won't be this week because I

(01:50:24):
do want to celebrate at least Blackout Tips Day with y'all.
So many of y'all won't remember if We're not doing
episodes to remind y'all, so I'm gonna think about that.

Speaker 3 (01:50:34):
But anyway, thanks for listening to everybody.

Speaker 1 (01:50:37):
Until next time, I love you.
