Gavin Newsom went on the “All The Smoke” podcast and debuted a new accent, fabricated a backstory claiming he was so poor while growing up that he had to eat bread and mac and cheese just to pay the bills. Meanwhile, Dana reacts to a musical called “Slam Frank” centering on Anne Frank seen through the lens of intersectional multi-ethnic genderqueer and Afro-Latin hip-hop.

Dana Lashes Absurd Truth podcast sponsored by Keltech.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
It's his laugh mission to make bad decisions. It's time
for Florida.
Speaker 3 (00:13):
Man, all right.
Speaker 4 (00:16):
So, a Florida man threw a rock through an ice
agent's car window as his father was being arrested.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
Guests who also got arrested like father, Lake's.
Speaker 4 (00:26):
Son look dated a daddy's son outing oh so great.
Nineteen year old Pascal Martin is the son of the
man federal agents who are arresting at the time. He's
charged with one count of throwing a deadly missile missile
into an occupied vehicle, which is the second degree felony.
So he shattered apparently the agent's car. It was a
(00:47):
rock large enough to do it. Apparently it busted out
the whole thing. So he's the son of the neighbor
of the guy that the guys that the agents were arresting.
Velaska's Martin took off after, but he was arrested nearby
able to run away. Don't play stupid games because you
will absolutely win stupid prizes. A Florida skeleton strip show
(01:07):
is rattling neighbors and sparking debate over Halloween decorps. According
to CBS twelve. So in one Florida neighborhood the front porch,
it's a skeleton strip show that features thick ears, smoking
and beer drinking, a skeleton on a pole, and some
of the neighbors are upset, and I'm like, is this just?
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Is this footloose? Part two?
Speaker 4 (01:29):
Because it's literally a skeleton just sitting on a pole
and two what is kine?
Speaker 3 (01:38):
This is not bad?
Speaker 2 (01:39):
No, actually, it's just hilarious to see. See. This is
the thing about decorations for Christmas. There's a ceiling on
how creative you can be for Christmas. With Halloween, there's
no ceiling. Yeah, and I love that because you can
just do anything and it offends someone. It'll always offend someone.
Speaker 4 (01:55):
Oh completely, They said that. Someone said, I don't see
stripping as an art. I don't want my kids exposed
to that.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
You don't even know.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
The skeleton doesn't have a ding or dong. You can't
tell what's what. It's a skeleton that you get a costco.
There's nothing.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Oh my god, unless your kids watch the halftime show.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Yeah right, I don't have that.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
I mean, if you're worried about a skeleton on a
pole on somebody's porch where it's clearly doesn't show anything.
I mean, Victoria's secrets window front show way more than
this guy's porch does. Then I don't know, I just
feel like it's it seems like it's footloose Part two.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
People are getting up show where people go to learn
to be gentlemen.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
Okay, we'll go that far.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
But yeah, a Florida man exposed himself to a child
in the park and then urinated and at the police station.
Oh my gosh, he's lucky he's alive because some kids'
parents don't mess around with that kind of stuff. Just
saying this guy, I'm not going to log into continue
reading the story.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
There's the headline.
Speaker 5 (03:01):
But also you know, it was also about paying the
bills man, and it was just like hustling and and
so I was out there kind of raising myself, turning
on the TV started, you know, just getting obsessed, you know,
sitting there with the you know, the wonderbread and five
stacks of.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
You know, like the white.
Speaker 5 (03:31):
Every day every day in the backyard, just bouncing the basketball,
throwing the ball against the wall until the ball is
just like fraying, man, and you're your that's it whole thing,
so just and and then you know, then the student
that with students in the back with his head down,
all of a sudden started throwing the baseball a little
fashion than everyone else and started, you know, make a
(03:51):
few free throws because I was sitting there practicing five
hundred of them every damn night. And in high schools,
I look up in the stands, my dad's back up there, okay,
and it's like man, and then he's bringing his friends
and you're captain of the team and you're like, geez,
you know, and it just saved me and it got
me in.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
The cop Okay. I'm trying to understand.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Gavin Newsom is trying to sell us on the idea
that he was raised poor. He goes on this podcast
and because this is important to the left, the host
starred black Americans, and so I guess he figures that
he's going to be less of an accessible or relatable
(04:34):
character if he talks about his real past, and so
he has to sit here and talk about how he
ate Kraft mac and cheese and did all these look.
First off, welcome back to the program, Dana Lash. We're
at the top of the second hour. The chats at Rumple.
You can watch us do radio channel three forty seven.
Who does he think he's fooling with us?
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Who is for real? Who does he think he's fooling
with us? Because this is.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
This guy grew up one of literally like the richest
people in one of the richest families ever. He grew
up in one of the like one of the five
major families there in San Francisco. He was born to
(05:23):
a guy who was an attorney for the Getty family.
His dad was the attorney for Getty Oil. He was
a judge. The dad was a judge. His mom was
like a debutante. His grandfather on his mom's side was
at Stanford. And he's also like they have the Pelosi
(05:47):
Like his aunt married into the Pelosi family. Yes, that
Pelosi family, and they he grew up with the Gettys.
And his dad was this very very wealthy attorn Ernie
who sits who believes that he's on this NBA podcast
and he's talking about paying his bills. I mean, we've
(06:08):
there's a photo of him, and we can throw these
photos up where he's I don't know, like maybe in
his twenties and he's like visiting a Ventnor and they're
looking at like bougie wine out in Napa.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
And I mean he grew up with the Getty family.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
His first house was a multimillion dollar home, his first home.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
This is him in his suit.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
You know, he's so poor looking, him being all poor
here on the left. He's so poor with his peroxided hair.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
The mac and cheese is probably right off camera.
Speaker 4 (06:41):
You're right, Kane. You just can't see the mac and
cheese there. You just can't see it. You can't see it.
His first wedding to Gilfoyle. He seems opportunistic because his
first wedding was like half a million dollars or something
like that, a quarter of a million dollars, and that
was back in like the eighties, because they're kind of
(07:03):
up there eighties are early nineties. I think this he
was the most He's in a barbary scarf. That scarf
is probably like a couple hundred dollars.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
For a scarf.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
He was, he was name most stylish. He looks like
that dude. He looks like Blaine from a pretty and pink.
That's a barbary scarf. You know, he was so poor,
he just wanted some mac and cheese. Guys, he's so poor.
Can you believe it? Oh my goodness. He had a
wine business while he was in college. He went on
(07:37):
vacation internationally when he was in college. You know, that's
what people who are poor and can only eat mac
and cheese. You know, he was hustling wonderbread and mac
and cheese. That's how I grew up. Bro was literally,
i'm reading the transcript, we'll say it again. Wonderbread and
mac and cheese. That's how I grew up.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
Brow he grew up.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
Did it have like gold in it? Did it have
gold dust in the mac and cheese? Because that's the
only way that he was probably eating it. Look again,
he grew up with the Getties and the pelosis, and
he was immediately had not He did not have to
worry about anything. His education was taken care of everything.
(08:26):
I don't know where he and then he grew up
running around with Gordon Getty and that he with the
with the investors and the Getties, they started Plump Jack wine.
You know, he kind of reminds me of Sidebar from Borderlands,
Handsome Jack. But he's not handsome from Borderlands, doesn't he?
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Yeah? He totally does so.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
I don't know where he gets this. I love how
the progressive Hillary Clinton does this too. In order to
be relatable, they have to they have to refashion they're
they're growing or coming of age stories. Oh I was
so poor. None of you people were poor. None of
these people were poor. Oh my gosh. I would love
to be the kind of poor Gavin Newsome. It was right, Kane,
(09:09):
I'd take that kind of poor Gavin Newso poor. Yeah, yeah,
I mean absolutely, we'd take that kind of poor.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
That's a good poor man.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
No, he's never he's really never had to work super
hard at anything. He's been a part of those families. Look,
I don't This is America, and Americans can work hard
and they can pass off whatever they want to their kids.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
You know, I don't mind anything like I don't care.
That's why you work hard.
Speaker 4 (09:41):
But don't sit here and blow smoke up everybody's backside
and act like you know you're basically on food stamps
and you're living off government cheese when you ain't. Okay,
let's not. This guy would not know poor. He has
no idea what poverty is. He has no idea what
being poor is. And I can't believe these hosts.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
Didn't even call him out. That's really lame.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
You have this guy on your show, and you're allowing
yourself to get played like this because you want access
to him. That's the only thing I can think of.
The only reason that people don't call out other people
is because they want access, right, that's the only reason.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Or they fear, they have fear.
Speaker 4 (10:17):
One of the it's usually one of the two. No,
I would love to be poor like him.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Good Night, Gavin Newsome.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
You know just saying he just he did all those vacations,
and you know your first house was multimillion dollars came right,
That's how all that's how all of us are, all
of us poor people. Our first homes were multimillion dollar
homes in the Pacific Heights with ocean views. You know
what I'm saying. We all know, we all know that
(10:47):
goodness goodness. So that is uh, I mean, he's really
trying to invent himself, reinvent himself.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Is that his hip hop? Is that hip hop? Gan?
Speaker 2 (11:00):
I think so yeah.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
I've got a lot of different Gavin nuisoms here. That's
so that's hip hop Gavin. It's about paying the bills.
It's about hustling. He's even doing the I'm watching the
video on my monitor. He's even doing the whole Yeah,
I'm hustling. I mean mac and cheese, I got white
breadlet He's doing that whole thing with his arms.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
I've never it looks so awkward.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
It looks like he tore something as he's doing it.
It just looks weird. There's this another article Susan Krabtree
found it where it's a picture of him, and it's
Bill Getty and Andrew Getty.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
He's there with the Getty brothers.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
He's in the middle and they're getting ready to launch
an upscale liquor shop. And do you know what the
h do you know what the headline on this article is.
The headline on the article is old money backs new
liquor shop. Hmm, old money came. It talks about how
he's partnered with the Getties to open up Well, this
(12:01):
is the first sentence. If you're the sign of a wealthy,
privileged old money family, what do you do for a living? Well,
you might try opening a high style liquor store. That's
what several of the next generation of Getty's Newsom and
Pelosi's are doing. This is from nineteen ninety one, and
it mentions it's Gavin Newsom involved, it's it's h.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Also Bill Getty, who's the Bill Getty?
Speaker 4 (12:28):
And then who's Andrew Getty? So his partners? H oh,
and it gets into some of his other partners too.
You got a Pelosi in there?
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Who else? Oh? We got uh oh.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
Some more Getty cousins. There's some silent partners plump jack. Yeah,
isn't that interesting? Old money? But you know white Bread
and craft.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Mac didn't mention Mac and cheese, and you know, I'm.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
Looking at it right now. No, they're talking about VALA's
and I'm looking. No, no, let me scan it. Do
do do we see anything about what bread and Macon cheese?
Speaker 3 (13:04):
No? No, no, no, I don't, no I do.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
They did say that they're going to have Valet parking
with purchase.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
It's actually not bad, you know, for a liquor store.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
But still, how funny is that they're old money back
in nineteen ninety one. So how is he going on
the show, this NBA podcast and he's saying this and
these guys aren't going Wait a minute, hold up, you
literally grew up with the Getties. You're like a member,
not like you are a member of one of the
most wealthiest families, not just in the United States, but
specifically one of the wealthy families that run San Francisco.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
How did you grow up you have? I mean he
grew up with a cook. How do you How do
you have.
Speaker 4 (13:44):
White bread and Kraft mac and cheese when you literally
have people in your kitchen cooking for you every day.
I mean, you live in a mansion in San Francisco.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
What are you doing?
Speaker 4 (13:53):
This is so crazy. I can't stand it when the
people do this stuff. Just be who you are, but
it just shows you. He first off, how stereotypical is
that that he goes on an NBA podcast hosted by
black host with probably not an audience that is very
San Francisco white bread and he says this stuff. Isn't
(14:16):
that aren't you? Isn't you playing into a trope by
doing this? So? How is that not inadvertently racist? Like
when Hillary Clinton said that she had a hot sauce
in her bag when she was talking to a predominantly
black audience. I mean, sure, white people like hot sauce.
Who doesn't listen crystals? Hey, But you know what I'm saying, like,
how why do that? Because they have no other way?
Speaker 3 (14:39):
What is he gonna do? Well, hey, guys, don't you
want to pay more taxes? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (14:43):
No, no, So he's gonna do this. It's so lame.
Sometimes makeup can be super frustrating. It's too heavy, there
are too many steps, and if you don't have the
right tools, it just doesn't look natural. And we are
in the natural, healthy girl era of makeup right now.
And that's why I I think Jones Road Beauty really
fills this. They really fill this niche and they do
(15:04):

Speaker 2 (16:07):
Code Dana And now all of the news you would
probably miss, it's time for Dana's Quick five.
Speaker 4 (16:14):
Well, they finally had two people arrested over the theft
at the Louver over the jewels. Two suspects were arrested
a prose prosecutor in Paris. Their office said that one
of the men had been taken into custody. He was
apparently trying to leave the country and board a flight
from Charles de Gaulle Airport. They had I mean, I
think it ended up being over one hundred and two
(16:35):
million dollars. The estimated value or the not estimated the
measured value of these jewels.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
They knew how much they were worth.
Speaker 4 (16:42):
They said that the security protocols failed and now the
country has a terrible image.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
Yeah, it's kind of true. We're going to talk more
about that here. Coming up.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
Tropical storm warning issued along the US coast as Melissa
explodes into a Category five. So this is the storm
that's coming up the east coast. They have the alert
issued for stretches of water from south of Bermuda to
east central Florida, and the winds are building in strength
(17:12):
rough seas and it reached a Cat five status this
morning and is expected to make landfall as it barrels
towards Jamaica.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
So it's going to hit Jamaica first.
Speaker 4 (17:23):
And then they said, I mean still kind of it
seems weird because after that you could either go up
into the Bahamian Archipelago or you could go more towards Cuba.
There's several ways to go. So it is going to
hit Jamaica though they are convinced of that. That's terrifying.
Category five.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Also, this car.
Speaker 4 (17:39):
Play I keep hearing more and more about this. This
does not want to open the General Motors decision to
get rid of CarPlay. They announce that they're going to
ax it from that in Android Auto from all of
their gas vehicles, and a lot of drivers on REDIT
are trashing it.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
I think it's.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
There's a lot like why are you nodding like that
Kane doesn't have his Robert Evans A class.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Because because they're going to use this as an up charge,
You're seeing these new cars now where they're like, oh,
you want heated seats, that's going to be ten bucks
a month. You want access to this, you want access
to that, it's going to be this much a month.
This is them attempting that upsell and.
Speaker 4 (18:18):
That purchases like with a vehicle, that's annoying, like you
just and this So the car play, that's like when
you plug your phone in and then it will show
up you know, or it'll it'll it will connect wirelessly
and it shows up on your car's display and then
you can access your maps and messages and your music
(18:39):
and all of that stuff. But some I feel like
this is a lame excuse. Ford CEO said they don't
like the execution of it, and they said that some
of the concerns were that it gives Apple deeper access
into their hardware, so it can see too much control.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
That's lame. I don't believe that you just plug your phone.
That's so stupid. That's that's dumb. So I don't know.
I agree with you. I don't. We don't need the in.
Speaker 4 (19:01):
App purchases with this stuff. That's goofy. Third person. I
should say this for Florida man, but it's not a
Florida person. But it has to do with the death
at a Disney resort in Florida. This is like the
third person in two weeks. So that's why I really
can't have this. It's not really a Florida man story
per se, but it happened. This is what three times
now in two weeks. And the deceased man they haven't
(19:24):
determined his cause of death yet, but it was at
the Contemporary Resort hotel literally two weeks ago, where another
woman passed away and wasn't like one of these is suicide.
I think they were told for this guy was a
medical emergency, and that's all they know that nobody else
knows anything else.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
It's kind of weird. It's gonna be totally haunted there.
Speaker 4 (19:45):
I'm saying, like the happiest place in the maybe dudleiest.
A strange UFO like aircraft is being tested in secret
experiments at the US weapons base known as skunk Works.
So that's interesting. They said that the test and facie
has been known for housing secret objects and has developed
a lot of classified technology. And some of these people
(20:07):
on YouTube have been camping out near the land and
they look out over it and they've been watching like
these the tests of some of these things, and they
said that they caught a mysterious UFO like aircraft. Look,
I don't want to see that be linked out into
the public, although I think that it's probably planned. I
think that the military wanted it to leak out like this, honestly,
because how are you, I mean for crent out like
(20:29):
you can't even get to that what area fifty one
in New Mexico or not New Mexico, Sorry, that's in
Vegas or Nevada, Right, yeah, go up there. You can't
even get near there. They they have you in their sights.
They're going to come and intersep. So I really find
it hard to believe that somebody just posted on top
of a ridge and was able to oversee all this stuff.
We have a lot more on the way stick with
us our partners, people like Celtech the KS seven Gen
(20:51):
two shotgun, which is I mean, it's just a really
smooth pump action shotgun, and they have the new upgrade,
the new Gen tube, which is packed with a number
of different upgrades. In fact, you have a five slot
Picatini style rail that you can add grips, lights, You
can keep it flushed and sleek with a cap if
you want. You can enjoy a smoother pump action for
(21:13):
a faster, cleaner cycling, plus further enhanced durability. And it's
still all the the great things that they're I mean,
it's still weighs just under seven pounds unloaded and has
a compact bullpup design. You have maneuverability and tight spaces,
ambidextrous downwards shell ejection seven plus one capacity for serious
stopping power. It's great for home defense. This is definitely
(21:33):
a great home defense gun, also for range days and
anywhere in between. MSRP is only six thirty nine, so
it's super affordable. Visit Caltech Weapons dot Com. Made in
the USA. Family in k E l t ec Weapons
dot Com. Tell them that data send you. I'm trying
to understand the slam Frank thing. I actually saw this
(21:56):
over the weekend and Steve's got the VIDI to this
or are we going to get hit on YouTube if
we play this? By the way, I hope not so
if you don't know what slam Slam Frank is. First off,
it's a musical and I don't like I'm immediately predisposed
to dislike it no matter where it comes from because
it's a musical. I'm just not into musicals. I just
(22:18):
don't have that suspension of disbelief to think that everybody,
except maybe with the with the exception of the original
West Side story and the sound of music, I just
I have a hard time with it. This is supposed
to be a musical satire in which Anne Frank is
rewritten as the Netflix vunderkin h Latin X pan sexual
(22:41):
girl named Anita. Here's a glimpse of slam Frank as
Cane dies Elijah.
Speaker 5 (22:49):
Limited Luda Revery Ambitions will be fucking top.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
Profits and non fiction organize every thought and done.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
All these ads to left in a shifter.
Speaker 5 (23:00):
I've read until it's better.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
This story means to revision and fabie my own.
Speaker 4 (23:09):
I'm finol REREDMA diary until the publishers are hiring me,
she said.
Speaker 3 (23:16):
On this firing me, I'm fin this sounds horrible.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
So it's called slam Frank, and I don't even know
the way that it's There's a lot of controversy about it.
It centers on the rewritten and Frank called Anita through
the lens of intersectional, multi ethnic gender, queer Afro Latin
hip hop. Okay, slam Frank, what do you think of
(23:48):
slam Frank? Would you go see it?
Speaker 3 (23:50):
I immediately.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
I've already seen too much.
Speaker 4 (23:55):
I mean, and people are like, it's satire, Okay, then
what is it satirizing?
Speaker 3 (24:01):
If it's satire, what is it? Where is the satire?
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Like?
Speaker 4 (24:06):
What is the satirical aspect? What is what is the thing.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
That it's Is it satirizing rap?
Speaker 3 (24:13):
That's the thing. No one can answer that question? What
is it satirizing?
Speaker 4 (24:19):
Then?
Speaker 3 (24:20):
Anybody got nothing?
Speaker 4 (24:23):
Here's Daily Mail's headline, holocaust victim, and Frank reimagined his
pan sexual latina with non binary lover and neuro diverse family.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
What is this even? And she's got.
Speaker 4 (24:35):
One leg and she's gluten intolerant and color blind and
deaf in one ear.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
What she wins? I just want I should do it.
There's what is this? What is it Saturday?
Speaker 4 (24:49):
I mean, it's it's almost to the point where it's
satirizing itself. It's so cringe. Oh, I've seen enough clips.
I don't need to go see it in the theaters because.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
There's not enough in the world.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
This is how bad it is. Somebody first had the idea,
then they wrote it down, convinced others that it was
a good idea, those others agreed to it. Then they
executed it as written, and here we are.
Speaker 4 (25:26):
It bypassed a lot of a lot of stops there
in order to get on stage. It began as an
Instagram parody and the guy who created it was joking
about making this production to make quote LATINX girlies feel
included in the Holocaust. Now, Mike, wait a minute, is
(25:49):
it serious or because you can't tell anymore? And then
they did like a full it like inspired, like a
full production built around it.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
And that's how it.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
They said it was a fictional theater troupe trying to decolonize.
Anne Frank's story and then it went to this absurdity
of characters, et cetera. Is it satirizing wokery or is
it satirizing non wokery to the point where it is
a joke? Okay, I can't break Steve.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
What is your thought?
Speaker 5 (26:21):
My head?
Speaker 3 (26:22):
You wouldn't go see.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
This as we know on the show. I am not
a I'm not a hater of music rules like you are.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
But I appreciate that about you.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Yeah, no problem, But it's just and Frank was a
tough person and tough life, and I don't know if
we should be making light of that.
Speaker 5 (26:37):
I know.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
See That's what I'm like.
Speaker 4 (26:38):
I'm like, hasn't Kelly, hasn't the girl been thrown off?
I'm like, come on, I just I think that this
is where people try to get too smart and over
their skis and they create something that does not hit
the mark and someone. I think what they were trying
to do was like a Hamilton, a Hamilton style thing,
(27:00):
and they wanted to incorporate characters that were I like
discovery marginalized identities, which is the phrase I don't believe
in because I think if in this day and age,
if any you can marginalize yourself, but I don't think
that people have the power anymore to marginalize you unless
(27:21):
you're talking about critical race theory marginalizing its non adherents.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
It is the only thing I can think of. But they.
Speaker 4 (27:30):
Sold out thirty four performances, and either people think it's
daring satire or just deeply offensive like Reddit is full of.
They hate it or they hate the people who hate it.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
That's it. There's no one between. There's no one between here.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
How big were these rooms they were selling out? Do
we know?
Speaker 3 (27:49):
Now?
Speaker 4 (27:49):
We don't know, like the Book of Mormon they were
saying was set. When I think of satire, I think
of Space Balls. I think of mel Brooks, who was
the genius. I think of Chris for a guest, and
like Best in Show, Right, that's that movie is one
of the funniest things I've ever seen, Spinal Tap. That's
what I think when I think of satire. I don't
think of rewriting Anne Frank as like a gender queer
(28:12):
or whatever, Latin X doesn't know what she is type
of thing. How does that? That doesn't make it modern?
What the hell does that even mean? Someone say they're
trying to modernize. How do you modernize Anne, Frank, that's
so stupid.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
Shut up.
Speaker 4 (28:29):
She's a historical figure, she was a real person, and
you are deuthering her, You're or othering her by stripping
her of her identity. That's that's actually the irony in
this whole thing. I mean, were they trying to do
unintentional irony?
Speaker 3 (28:48):
That's a lot.
Speaker 4 (28:49):
That's a long journey to get to that end with us.
Of course, this is it's like they netflixed her, like
how you know, Netflix changes and ruins everything. Gosh, like
they're I think they're doing another Pride and prejudice. Can
you stop it? We don't need another damn pride and prejudice.
We don't need another damn Jane Austen story.
Speaker 5 (29:08):
Stop.
Speaker 4 (29:10):
Oh, we don't need any of it. It's all annoying
Outheringer though, that's what this is.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
So I just let's not let's say we did.
Speaker 4 (29:21):
Let's just and they called it slam Frank. That was
cringey that clip that we played. That's why I hate musicals.
I can't sit there in a theater and hear that
kind of performance.
Speaker 3 (29:32):
And go, wow, that's really good. I can't. I can't.
Speaker 4 (29:36):
It's just the cheesy, over the top delivery. I'm sorry,
theater kids, it's just not my jam.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
Sorry, just not just not so. I don't know. They
said it sparked controversy.
Speaker 4 (29:48):
I think the guy did it. Maybe it might be
a leftist. Otherwise these they would have burnt the theater
down already.

It's his laugh mission to make bad decisions. It's time
for Florida.
Speaker 3 (00:13):
Man, all right.
Speaker 4 (00:16):
So, a Florida man threw a rock through an ice
agent's car window as his father was being arrested.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
Guests who also got arrested like father, Lake's.
Speaker 4 (00:26):
Son look dated a daddy's son outing oh so great.
Nineteen year old Pascal Martin is the son of the
man federal agents who are arresting at the time. He's
charged with one count of throwing a deadly missile missile
into an occupied vehicle, which is the second degree felony.
So he shattered apparently the agent's car. It was a
(00:47):
rock large enough to do it. Apparently it busted out
the whole thing. So he's the son of the neighbor
of the guy that the guys that the agents were arresting.
Velaska's Martin took off after, but he was arrested nearby
able to run away. Don't play stupid games because you
will absolutely win stupid prizes. A Florida skeleton strip show
(01:07):
is rattling neighbors and sparking debate over Halloween decorps. According
to CBS twelve. So in one Florida neighborhood the front porch,
it's a skeleton strip show that features thick ears, smoking
and beer drinking, a skeleton on a pole, and some
of the neighbors are upset, and I'm like, is this just?
Speaker 3 (01:26):
Is this footloose? Part two?
Speaker 4 (01:29):
Because it's literally a skeleton just sitting on a pole
and two what is kine?
Speaker 3 (01:38):
This is not bad?
Speaker 2 (01:39):
No, actually, it's just hilarious to see. See. This is
the thing about decorations for Christmas. There's a ceiling on
how creative you can be for Christmas. With Halloween, there's
no ceiling. Yeah, and I love that because you can
just do anything and it offends someone. It'll always offend someone.
Speaker 4 (01:55):
Oh completely, They said that. Someone said, I don't see
stripping as an art. I don't want my kids exposed
to that.
Speaker 3 (02:03):
You don't even know.
Speaker 4 (02:05):
The skeleton doesn't have a ding or dong. You can't
tell what's what. It's a skeleton that you get a costco.
There's nothing.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Oh my god, unless your kids watch the halftime show.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Yeah right, I don't have that.
Speaker 4 (02:18):
I mean, if you're worried about a skeleton on a
pole on somebody's porch where it's clearly doesn't show anything.
I mean, Victoria's secrets window front show way more than
this guy's porch does. Then I don't know, I just
feel like it's it seems like it's footloose Part two.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
People are getting up show where people go to learn
to be gentlemen.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
Okay, we'll go that far.
Speaker 4 (02:39):
But yeah, a Florida man exposed himself to a child
in the park and then urinated and at the police station.
Oh my gosh, he's lucky he's alive because some kids'
parents don't mess around with that kind of stuff. Just
saying this guy, I'm not going to log into continue
reading the story.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
There's the headline.
Speaker 5 (03:01):
But also you know, it was also about paying the
bills man, and it was just like hustling and and
so I was out there kind of raising myself, turning
on the TV started, you know, just getting obsessed, you know,
sitting there with the you know, the wonderbread and five
stacks of.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
You know, like the white.
Speaker 5 (03:31):
Every day every day in the backyard, just bouncing the basketball,
throwing the ball against the wall until the ball is
just like fraying, man, and you're your that's it whole thing,
so just and and then you know, then the student
that with students in the back with his head down,
all of a sudden started throwing the baseball a little
fashion than everyone else and started, you know, make a
(03:51):
few free throws because I was sitting there practicing five
hundred of them every damn night. And in high schools,
I look up in the stands, my dad's back up there, okay,
and it's like man, and then he's bringing his friends
and you're captain of the team and you're like, geez,
you know, and it just saved me and it got
me in.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
The cop Okay. I'm trying to understand.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Gavin Newsom is trying to sell us on the idea
that he was raised poor. He goes on this podcast
and because this is important to the left, the host
starred black Americans, and so I guess he figures that
he's going to be less of an accessible or relatable
(04:34):
character if he talks about his real past, and so
he has to sit here and talk about how he
ate Kraft mac and cheese and did all these look.
First off, welcome back to the program, Dana Lash. We're
at the top of the second hour. The chats at Rumple.
You can watch us do radio channel three forty seven.
Who does he think he's fooling with us?
Speaker 3 (04:56):
Who is for real? Who does he think he's fooling
with us? Because this is.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
This guy grew up one of literally like the richest
people in one of the richest families ever. He grew
up in one of the like one of the five
major families there in San Francisco. He was born to
(05:23):
a guy who was an attorney for the Getty family.
His dad was the attorney for Getty Oil. He was
a judge. The dad was a judge. His mom was
like a debutante. His grandfather on his mom's side was
at Stanford. And he's also like they have the Pelosi
(05:47):
Like his aunt married into the Pelosi family. Yes, that
Pelosi family, and they he grew up with the Gettys.
And his dad was this very very wealthy attorn Ernie
who sits who believes that he's on this NBA podcast
and he's talking about paying his bills. I mean, we've
(06:08):
there's a photo of him, and we can throw these
photos up where he's I don't know, like maybe in
his twenties and he's like visiting a Ventnor and they're
looking at like bougie wine out in Napa.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
And I mean he grew up with the Getty family.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
His first house was a multimillion dollar home, his first home.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
This is him in his suit.
Speaker 4 (06:32):
You know, he's so poor looking, him being all poor
here on the left. He's so poor with his peroxided hair.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
The mac and cheese is probably right off camera.
Speaker 4 (06:41):
You're right, Kane. You just can't see the mac and
cheese there. You just can't see it. You can't see it.
His first wedding to Gilfoyle. He seems opportunistic because his
first wedding was like half a million dollars or something
like that, a quarter of a million dollars, and that
was back in like the eighties, because they're kind of
(07:03):
up there eighties are early nineties. I think this he
was the most He's in a barbary scarf. That scarf
is probably like a couple hundred dollars.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
For a scarf.
Speaker 4 (07:15):
He was, he was name most stylish. He looks like
that dude. He looks like Blaine from a pretty and pink.
That's a barbary scarf. You know, he was so poor,
he just wanted some mac and cheese. Guys, he's so poor.
Can you believe it? Oh my goodness. He had a
wine business while he was in college. He went on
(07:37):
vacation internationally when he was in college. You know, that's
what people who are poor and can only eat mac
and cheese. You know, he was hustling wonderbread and mac
and cheese. That's how I grew up. Bro was literally,
i'm reading the transcript, we'll say it again. Wonderbread and
mac and cheese. That's how I grew up.
Speaker 3 (07:59):
Brow he grew up.
Speaker 4 (08:02):
Did it have like gold in it? Did it have
gold dust in the mac and cheese? Because that's the
only way that he was probably eating it. Look again,
he grew up with the Getties and the pelosis, and
he was immediately had not He did not have to
worry about anything. His education was taken care of everything.
(08:26):
I don't know where he and then he grew up
running around with Gordon Getty and that he with the
with the investors and the Getties, they started Plump Jack wine.
You know, he kind of reminds me of Sidebar from Borderlands,
Handsome Jack. But he's not handsome from Borderlands, doesn't he?
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Yeah? He totally does so.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
I don't know where he gets this. I love how
the progressive Hillary Clinton does this too. In order to
be relatable, they have to they have to refashion they're
they're growing or coming of age stories. Oh I was
so poor. None of you people were poor. None of
these people were poor. Oh my gosh. I would love
to be the kind of poor Gavin Newsome. It was right, Kane,
(09:09):
I'd take that kind of poor Gavin Newso poor. Yeah, yeah,
I mean absolutely, we'd take that kind of poor.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
That's a good poor man.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
No, he's never he's really never had to work super
hard at anything. He's been a part of those families. Look,
I don't This is America, and Americans can work hard
and they can pass off whatever they want to their kids.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
You know, I don't mind anything like I don't care.
That's why you work hard.
Speaker 4 (09:41):
But don't sit here and blow smoke up everybody's backside
and act like you know you're basically on food stamps
and you're living off government cheese when you ain't. Okay,
let's not. This guy would not know poor. He has
no idea what poverty is. He has no idea what
being poor is. And I can't believe these hosts.
Speaker 3 (09:58):
Didn't even call him out. That's really lame.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
You have this guy on your show, and you're allowing
yourself to get played like this because you want access
to him. That's the only thing I can think of.
The only reason that people don't call out other people
is because they want access, right, that's the only reason.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Or they fear, they have fear.
Speaker 4 (10:17):
One of the it's usually one of the two. No,
I would love to be poor like him.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Good Night, Gavin Newsome.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
You know just saying he just he did all those vacations,
and you know your first house was multimillion dollars came right,
That's how all that's how all of us are, all
of us poor people. Our first homes were multimillion dollar
homes in the Pacific Heights with ocean views. You know
what I'm saying. We all know, we all know that
(10:47):
goodness goodness. So that is uh, I mean, he's really
trying to invent himself, reinvent himself.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Is that his hip hop? Is that hip hop? Gan?
Speaker 2 (11:00):
I think so yeah.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
I've got a lot of different Gavin nuisoms here. That's
so that's hip hop Gavin. It's about paying the bills.
It's about hustling. He's even doing the I'm watching the
video on my monitor. He's even doing the whole Yeah,
I'm hustling. I mean mac and cheese, I got white
breadlet He's doing that whole thing with his arms.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
I've never it looks so awkward.
Speaker 4 (11:25):
It looks like he tore something as he's doing it.
It just looks weird. There's this another article Susan Krabtree
found it where it's a picture of him, and it's
Bill Getty and Andrew Getty.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
He's there with the Getty brothers.
Speaker 4 (11:38):
He's in the middle and they're getting ready to launch
an upscale liquor shop. And do you know what the
h do you know what the headline on this article is.
The headline on the article is old money backs new
liquor shop. Hmm, old money came. It talks about how
he's partnered with the Getties to open up Well, this
(12:01):
is the first sentence. If you're the sign of a wealthy,
privileged old money family, what do you do for a living? Well,
you might try opening a high style liquor store. That's
what several of the next generation of Getty's Newsom and
Pelosi's are doing. This is from nineteen ninety one, and
it mentions it's Gavin Newsom involved, it's it's h.
Speaker 3 (12:23):
Also Bill Getty, who's the Bill Getty?
Speaker 4 (12:28):
And then who's Andrew Getty? So his partners? H oh,
and it gets into some of his other partners too.
You got a Pelosi in there?
Speaker 3 (12:38):
Who else? Oh? We got uh oh.
Speaker 4 (12:40):
Some more Getty cousins. There's some silent partners plump jack. Yeah,
isn't that interesting? Old money? But you know white Bread
and craft.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Mac didn't mention Mac and cheese, and you know, I'm.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
Looking at it right now. No, they're talking about VALA's
and I'm looking. No, no, let me scan it. Do
do do we see anything about what bread and Macon cheese?
Speaker 3 (13:04):
No? No, no, no, I don't, no I do.
Speaker 4 (13:09):
They did say that they're going to have Valet parking
with purchase.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
It's actually not bad, you know, for a liquor store.
Speaker 4 (13:17):
But still, how funny is that they're old money back
in nineteen ninety one. So how is he going on
the show, this NBA podcast and he's saying this and
these guys aren't going Wait a minute, hold up, you
literally grew up with the Getties. You're like a member,
not like you are a member of one of the
most wealthiest families, not just in the United States, but
specifically one of the wealthy families that run San Francisco.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
How did you grow up you have? I mean he
grew up with a cook. How do you How do
you have.
Speaker 4 (13:44):
White bread and Kraft mac and cheese when you literally
have people in your kitchen cooking for you every day.
I mean, you live in a mansion in San Francisco.
Speaker 3 (13:52):
What are you doing?
Speaker 4 (13:53):
This is so crazy. I can't stand it when the
people do this stuff. Just be who you are, but
it just shows you. He first off, how stereotypical is
that that he goes on an NBA podcast hosted by
black host with probably not an audience that is very
San Francisco white bread and he says this stuff. Isn't
(14:16):
that aren't you? Isn't you playing into a trope by
doing this? So? How is that not inadvertently racist? Like
when Hillary Clinton said that she had a hot sauce
in her bag when she was talking to a predominantly
black audience. I mean, sure, white people like hot sauce.
Who doesn't listen crystals? Hey, But you know what I'm saying, like,
how why do that? Because they have no other way?
Speaker 3 (14:39):
What is he gonna do? Well, hey, guys, don't you
want to pay more taxes? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (14:43):
No, no, So he's gonna do this. It's so lame.

Speaker 4 (16:14):
Well, they finally had two people arrested over the theft
at the Louver over the jewels. Two suspects were arrested
a prose prosecutor in Paris. Their office said that one
of the men had been taken into custody. He was
apparently trying to leave the country and board a flight
from Charles de Gaulle Airport. They had I mean, I
think it ended up being over one hundred and two
(16:35):
million dollars. The estimated value or the not estimated the
measured value of these jewels.
Speaker 3 (16:40):
They knew how much they were worth.
Speaker 4 (16:42):
They said that the security protocols failed and now the
country has a terrible image.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
Yeah, it's kind of true. We're going to talk more
about that here. Coming up.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
Tropical storm warning issued along the US coast as Melissa
explodes into a Category five. So this is the storm
that's coming up the east coast. They have the alert
issued for stretches of water from south of Bermuda to
east central Florida, and the winds are building in strength
(17:12):
rough seas and it reached a Cat five status this
morning and is expected to make landfall as it barrels
towards Jamaica.
Speaker 3 (17:21):
So it's going to hit Jamaica first.
Speaker 4 (17:23):
And then they said, I mean still kind of it
seems weird because after that you could either go up
into the Bahamian Archipelago or you could go more towards Cuba.
There's several ways to go. So it is going to
hit Jamaica though they are convinced of that. That's terrifying.
Category five.
Speaker 3 (17:38):
Also, this car.
Speaker 4 (17:39):
Play I keep hearing more and more about this. This
does not want to open the General Motors decision to
get rid of CarPlay. They announce that they're going to
ax it from that in Android Auto from all of
their gas vehicles, and a lot of drivers on REDIT
are trashing it.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
I think it's.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
There's a lot like why are you nodding like that
Kane doesn't have his Robert Evans A class.
Speaker 2 (18:04):
Because because they're going to use this as an up charge,
You're seeing these new cars now where they're like, oh,
you want heated seats, that's going to be ten bucks
a month. You want access to this, you want access
to that, it's going to be this much a month.
This is them attempting that upsell and.
Speaker 4 (18:18):
That purchases like with a vehicle, that's annoying, like you
just and this So the car play, that's like when
you plug your phone in and then it will show
up you know, or it'll it'll it will connect wirelessly
and it shows up on your car's display and then
you can access your maps and messages and your music
(18:39):
and all of that stuff. But some I feel like
this is a lame excuse. Ford CEO said they don't
like the execution of it, and they said that some
of the concerns were that it gives Apple deeper access
into their hardware, so it can see too much control.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
That's lame. I don't believe that you just plug your phone.
That's so stupid. That's that's dumb. So I don't know.
I agree with you. I don't. We don't need the in.
Speaker 4 (19:01):
App purchases with this stuff. That's goofy. Third person. I
should say this for Florida man, but it's not a
Florida person. But it has to do with the death
at a Disney resort in Florida. This is like the
third person in two weeks. So that's why I really
can't have this. It's not really a Florida man story
per se, but it happened. This is what three times
now in two weeks. And the deceased man they haven't
(19:24):
determined his cause of death yet, but it was at
the Contemporary Resort hotel literally two weeks ago, where another
woman passed away and wasn't like one of these is suicide.
I think they were told for this guy was a
medical emergency, and that's all they know that nobody else
knows anything else.
Speaker 3 (19:41):
It's kind of weird. It's gonna be totally haunted there.
Speaker 4 (19:45):
I'm saying, like the happiest place in the maybe dudleiest.
A strange UFO like aircraft is being tested in secret
experiments at the US weapons base known as skunk Works.
So that's interesting. They said that the test and facie
has been known for housing secret objects and has developed
a lot of classified technology. And some of these people
(20:07):
on YouTube have been camping out near the land and
they look out over it and they've been watching like
these the tests of some of these things, and they
said that they caught a mysterious UFO like aircraft. Look,
I don't want to see that be linked out into
the public, although I think that it's probably planned. I
think that the military wanted it to leak out like this, honestly,
because how are you, I mean for crent out like
(20:29):
you can't even get to that what area fifty one
in New Mexico or not New Mexico, Sorry, that's in
Vegas or Nevada, Right, yeah, go up there. You can't
even get near there. They they have you in their sights.
They're going to come and intersep. So I really find
it hard to believe that somebody just posted on top
of a ridge and was able to oversee all this stuff.
We have a lot more on the way stick with
us our partners, people like Celtech the KS seven Gen
(20:51):
two shotgun, which is I mean, it's just a really
smooth pump action shotgun, and they have the new upgrade,
the new Gen tube, which is packed with a number
of different upgrades. In fact, you have a five slot
Picatini style rail that you can add grips, lights, You
can keep it flushed and sleek with a cap if
you want. You can enjoy a smoother pump action for
(21:13):
a faster, cleaner cycling, plus further enhanced durability. And it's
still all the the great things that they're I mean,
it's still weighs just under seven pounds unloaded and has
a compact bullpup design. You have maneuverability and tight spaces,
ambidextrous downwards shell ejection seven plus one capacity for serious
stopping power. It's great for home defense. This is definitely
(21:33):
a great home defense gun, also for range days and
anywhere in between. MSRP is only six thirty nine, so
it's super affordable. Visit Caltech Weapons dot Com. Made in
the USA. Family in k E l t ec Weapons
dot Com. Tell them that data send you. I'm trying
to understand the slam Frank thing. I actually saw this
(21:56):
over the weekend and Steve's got the VIDI to this
or are we going to get hit on YouTube if
we play this? By the way, I hope not so
if you don't know what slam Slam Frank is. First off,
it's a musical and I don't like I'm immediately predisposed
to dislike it no matter where it comes from because
it's a musical. I'm just not into musicals. I just
(22:18):
don't have that suspension of disbelief to think that everybody,
except maybe with the with the exception of the original
West Side story and the sound of music, I just
I have a hard time with it. This is supposed
to be a musical satire in which Anne Frank is
rewritten as the Netflix vunderkin h Latin X pan sexual
(22:41):
girl named Anita. Here's a glimpse of slam Frank as
Cane dies Elijah.
Speaker 5 (22:49):
Limited Luda Revery Ambitions will be fucking top.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
Profits and non fiction organize every thought and done.
Speaker 3 (22:58):
All these ads to left in a shifter.
Speaker 5 (23:00):
I've read until it's better.
Speaker 3 (23:03):
This story means to revision and fabie my own.
Speaker 4 (23:09):
I'm finol REREDMA diary until the publishers are hiring me,
she said.
Speaker 3 (23:16):
On this firing me, I'm fin this sounds horrible.
Speaker 4 (23:24):
So it's called slam Frank, and I don't even know
the way that it's There's a lot of controversy about it.
It centers on the rewritten and Frank called Anita through
the lens of intersectional, multi ethnic gender, queer Afro Latin
hip hop. Okay, slam Frank, what do you think of
(23:48):
slam Frank? Would you go see it?
Speaker 3 (23:50):
I immediately.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
I've already seen too much.
Speaker 4 (23:55):
I mean, and people are like, it's satire, Okay, then
what is it satirizing?
Speaker 3 (24:01):
If it's satire, what is it? Where is the satire?
Speaker 2 (24:05):
Like?
Speaker 4 (24:06):
What is the satirical aspect? What is what is the thing.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
That it's Is it satirizing rap?
Speaker 3 (24:13):
That's the thing. No one can answer that question? What
is it satirizing?
Speaker 4 (24:19):
Then?
Speaker 3 (24:20):
Anybody got nothing?
Speaker 4 (24:23):
Here's Daily Mail's headline, holocaust victim, and Frank reimagined his
pan sexual latina with non binary lover and neuro diverse family.
Speaker 3 (24:33):
What is this even? And she's got.
Speaker 4 (24:35):
One leg and she's gluten intolerant and color blind and
deaf in one ear.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
What she wins? I just want I should do it.
There's what is this? What is it Saturday?
Speaker 4 (24:49):
I mean, it's it's almost to the point where it's
satirizing itself. It's so cringe. Oh, I've seen enough clips.
I don't need to go see it in the theaters because.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
There's not enough in the world.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
This is how bad it is. Somebody first had the idea,
then they wrote it down, convinced others that it was
a good idea, those others agreed to it. Then they
executed it as written, and here we are.
Speaker 4 (25:26):
It bypassed a lot of a lot of stops there
in order to get on stage. It began as an
Instagram parody and the guy who created it was joking
about making this production to make quote LATINX girlies feel
included in the Holocaust. Now, Mike, wait a minute, is
(25:49):
it serious or because you can't tell anymore? And then
they did like a full it like inspired, like a
full production built around it.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
And that's how it.
Speaker 4 (26:00):
They said it was a fictional theater troupe trying to decolonize.
Anne Frank's story and then it went to this absurdity
of characters, et cetera. Is it satirizing wokery or is
it satirizing non wokery to the point where it is
a joke? Okay, I can't break Steve.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
What is your thought?
Speaker 5 (26:21):
My head?
Speaker 3 (26:22):
You wouldn't go see.
Speaker 1 (26:23):
This as we know on the show. I am not
a I'm not a hater of music rules like you are.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
But I appreciate that about you.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Yeah, no problem, But it's just and Frank was a
tough person and tough life, and I don't know if
we should be making light of that.
Speaker 5 (26:37):
I know.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
See That's what I'm like.
Speaker 4 (26:38):
I'm like, hasn't Kelly, hasn't the girl been thrown off?
I'm like, come on, I just I think that this
is where people try to get too smart and over
their skis and they create something that does not hit
the mark and someone. I think what they were trying
to do was like a Hamilton, a Hamilton style thing,
(27:00):
and they wanted to incorporate characters that were I like
discovery marginalized identities, which is the phrase I don't believe
in because I think if in this day and age,
if any you can marginalize yourself, but I don't think
that people have the power anymore to marginalize you unless
(27:21):
you're talking about critical race theory marginalizing its non adherents.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
It is the only thing I can think of. But they.
Speaker 4 (27:30):
Sold out thirty four performances, and either people think it's
daring satire or just deeply offensive like Reddit is full of.
They hate it or they hate the people who hate it.
Speaker 3 (27:42):
That's it. There's no one between. There's no one between here.
Speaker 2 (27:46):
How big were these rooms they were selling out? Do
we know?
Speaker 3 (27:49):
Now?
Speaker 4 (27:49):
We don't know, like the Book of Mormon they were
saying was set. When I think of satire, I think
of Space Balls. I think of mel Brooks, who was
the genius. I think of Chris for a guest, and
like Best in Show, Right, that's that movie is one
of the funniest things I've ever seen, Spinal Tap. That's
what I think when I think of satire. I don't
think of rewriting Anne Frank as like a gender queer
(28:12):
or whatever, Latin X doesn't know what she is type
of thing. How does that? That doesn't make it modern?
What the hell does that even mean? Someone say they're
trying to modernize. How do you modernize Anne, Frank, that's
so stupid.
Speaker 3 (28:27):
Shut up.
Speaker 4 (28:29):
She's a historical figure, she was a real person, and
you are deuthering her, You're or othering her by stripping
her of her identity. That's that's actually the irony in
this whole thing. I mean, were they trying to do
unintentional irony?
Speaker 3 (28:48):
That's a lot.
Speaker 4 (28:49):
That's a long journey to get to that end with us.
Of course, this is it's like they netflixed her, like
how you know, Netflix changes and ruins everything. Gosh, like
they're I think they're doing another Pride and prejudice. Can
you stop it? We don't need another damn pride and prejudice.
We don't need another damn Jane Austen story.
Speaker 5 (29:08):
Stop.
Speaker 4 (29:10):
Oh, we don't need any of it. It's all annoying
Outheringer though, that's what this is.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
So I just let's not let's say we did.
Speaker 4 (29:21):
Let's just and they called it slam Frank. That was
cringey that clip that we played. That's why I hate musicals.
I can't sit there in a theater and hear that
kind of performance.
Speaker 3 (29:32):
And go, wow, that's really good. I can't. I can't.
Speaker 4 (29:36):
It's just the cheesy, over the top delivery. I'm sorry,
theater kids, it's just not my jam.
Speaker 3 (29:41):
Sorry, just not just not so. I don't know. They
said it sparked controversy.
Speaker 4 (29:48):
I think the guy did it. Maybe it might be
a leftist. Otherwise these they would have burnt the theater
down already.
