Speaker 1 (00:13):
Hello, and welcome to episode to twenty oh.

Speaker 2 (00:20):
Four four.

Speaker 1 (00:22):
Yeah to twenty four of Colebrew got me like the
show that reminds you.

Speaker 3 (00:30):
I didn't think of any second part to that, the.

Speaker 1 (00:34):
Show that the show that brings you all you need
to know about.

Speaker 4 (00:43):
Everything.

Speaker 1 (00:45):
Hold on about to have some coffee, hold on, hold
on that slogan, I'll fix itself. Mouth noises anyone. So
we're in Nashville, Tennessee, me and Greg, the Cauldron of Capitalism,

(01:07):
the the the Thor's or Thor's anvil or whatever of shit?

Speaker 3 (01:19):
Where Thor is it?

Speaker 1 (01:21):
Thor had an anvil? I think Thor had an anvil.
He was a He was a blacksmith, wasn't he. No,
Thor is he what?

Speaker 5 (01:27):
He had a hammer?

Speaker 6 (01:29):
Right?

Speaker 1 (01:29):
But that's because he was a blacksmith, wasn't it. I've
never heard of Thor being a black Well, who's the blacksmith?
There's definitely one of those in the pantheon of Viking
gods or whatever or Greek I mean, I don't you
know you're supposed to just let me say that anyway?

Speaker 7 (01:44):
Oh?

Speaker 3 (01:44):
No, I asked, I asked, I asked what it was?

Speaker 7 (01:49):
Where?

Speaker 1 (01:50):
Uh Thor's hammer of thor who's the blacksmith? Who's the blacksmith?
Greek Greek god blacksmith? Oh is it Odin.

Speaker 3 (02:07):
Just making shit up? Now?

Speaker 1 (02:10):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (02:10):
God?

Speaker 1 (02:10):
No, Oh Vulcan that's the Roman one and the Greek
god is have face?

Speaker 3 (02:19):
Have have he?

Speaker 1 (02:21):
Fis have faced? Hephestus, which obviously is he's not famous
because it's too hard to say.

Speaker 3 (02:28):
It's easier to say Vulcan or Thor.

Speaker 1 (02:32):
So Hephestus, who is probably like the best god of everybody,
probably the most charming and everything, but he had just
too complicated a name for the Internet. Yeah, you want
to have a name for the Internet that you can
say real fast, because people got to move fast and
read more bad news and see more people uh falling

(02:53):
down the stairs and stuff.

Speaker 8 (02:56):
So oh, speaking of that, I've been watching the Loumires
films on Criterion Collection, and some of the first films
ever made there were cat videos involved. They filmed cats
playing with stuff.

Speaker 1 (03:15):
The first films ever made ever made ever.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
Like you mean, like like nineteen okay, yeah, wow.

Speaker 8 (03:21):
They had cats doing antics even back then, So we
become full circle.

Speaker 1 (03:25):
People have had a cat, People have had cat related
mental disorders ever since the beginning of time. Maleit, Cat's fine,
but I do not get why they're the best animal.

Speaker 3 (03:40):
Or the best pet.

Speaker 1 (03:41):
And we just lost half our listeners just because of that.
Like that's how sensitive these people are about cats. So
we're fucked just from me saying that. Let me take
that back. I get it.

Speaker 3 (03:55):
Cats are the best.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
Mm hmm. Well, you know what, we should just start
kicking off every show with this, because I've been thinking
about it again.

Speaker 3 (04:05):
So what are we doing?

Speaker 1 (04:06):
What do we even? Oh that you missed last week's episode.
That's Greta van Fleet, the singer of Greta van Fleet,

(04:29):
who is not named Greta van Fleet, which he probably
wishes he was, because I'm sure everybody calls him that
getting his toe stepped on and and singing and singing
a song at the same time. So I cut in
last week. I went crazy. I cut in?

Speaker 3 (04:48):
Was it this episode?

Speaker 9 (04:49):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (04:49):
It was it was.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
I cut in the All in the Family theme right after,
right after that scream, like right after the.

Speaker 5 (05:00):
Look.

Speaker 1 (05:00):
I figured out how to It's not hard, but I
cut in the All in the Family theme after the
that's screaming, because he's screaming just like Edith from All
in the family, and as we talked about last week,
he crossed the line between you know, rock and roll
and like sitcom housewife. It's a fine line. It's a

(05:24):
fine line. Chris Cornell walked it successfully so to the
guy from Iron Maiden. But unfortunately old Greta, which isn't
even really his name, stepped over that line. And I'm
glad he did for our sake. I mean, we've heard enough.

(05:45):
There's enough, there's enough, there's way mos piled up, and
everybody's called a sack. So please do embarrassing stuff.

Speaker 3 (05:54):
That's fun.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
It's even better if you mean it seriously, and it's
embarrassing without you know it like that guy. But any
kind of embarrassing behavior is fine and refreshing because it
reminds us that the world is not a streamlined, allegedly
driverless piece of shit. It's a wonky place full of

(06:22):
sickness and death and fun and all kinds of stuff.
But it's certainly not some streamlined piece of shit car
that drives itself.

Speaker 3 (06:30):
Allegedly.

Speaker 8 (06:34):
Hey, before we leave, Greta van Fleet, do you know
how they came up with their name?

Speaker 1 (06:41):
Well, I know how a lot of bands came up
with their names. So I'm gonna assume it was that
kind of thing, like Pink Floyd, you know, came up,
like came up with their name because it's like half
of half of the name of two blues guys they
liked or yeah, like m and that's the same way

(07:07):
Lover Boy came up with their name.

Speaker 3 (07:08):
Just kidding.

Speaker 1 (07:13):
So yeah, like Pink Floyd was a pink somebody and
something Floyd or Floyd something. So I'm thinking Greta is
like somebody's mom, and van Fleet is the name of
a van fleet, like a fleet of vans, and they like,

(07:34):
what is it? I can't wait?

Speaker 8 (07:37):
D The band Greta van Fleet gets his name from
Greta van Fleet, an eighty eight year old resident of
their hometown of Frankenmuth, Michigan. The origins of the name
come from a serendipitous moment when the band was scrambling
to come up with a moniker before their first local show.
During a practice session in the garage, their original drummer,
drummer Kyle Hawk, was dropped off by his grandfather who

(08:01):
mentioned he needed to go cut wood for Gretna van Fleet.
The band frontman Josh Kitska thought the name was catchy.
To make it flow better and roll off the tongue,
he the band simply dropped the end from the Gretna
Gretna van Fleet.

Speaker 1 (08:20):
I would say, just speaking for myself, it wouldn't have
made any difference to me whether it was Gretna or Greta.

Speaker 5 (08:25):
I think Greta is probably better.

Speaker 1 (08:27):
I mean, they're just splitting hairs at that point. It's
already a bad name.

Speaker 3 (08:32):
They just doesn't really matter what way you fix it.

Speaker 8 (08:35):
She played saxophone in a local Polka band, and she
gave them full approval of the use of their hurt
the twist on her name.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
I cannot believe those guys are from Michigan. They look
like they're from Belgium, and I don't know why that
they I mean, I rarely say that someone has a
Belgian vibe, but that's what I get from Greta van
Fleet and they're from Michigan. Although not to say a
lot of Belgian.

Speaker 3 (09:03):
Transplants could be in.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
Michigan, but they're not what I imagine Michigan. I mean,
is Michigan Michigan's full.

Speaker 7 (09:13):
Of like a.

Speaker 1 (09:18):
Europeans. I guess they look European. I mean yeah, and
I mean that in like the worst way.

Speaker 5 (09:27):
A lot of Europeans settled in Ohio and Michigan.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
I feel like they're bringing the worst of Europe to
America's shores. But I don't know much about Europe.

Speaker 8 (09:39):
So I find interesting is that you the grandfather was
cutting wood for Miss Gretna.

Speaker 5 (09:47):
So it speaks to the wood economy.

Speaker 8 (09:49):
You know, you go out to New Mexico and people
already see stacks of firewood everywhere, and I think we
need to get back to that where firewood is the
form of currency. I'll say, yeah, And if you're a billionaire,
you'd have where would you story?

Speaker 1 (10:06):
Or would I don't know, but I'll tell you one thing.
The Wood Economy is a way better band name than
Greta van Fleet. But anyway, who's arguing with a rich
bunch of rich guys, they would just say in your face,
whatever you're saying, you've got so much money, we gotta
be right. We did the numbers and we're the best

(10:29):
band in history.

Speaker 5 (10:33):
They're having their cold Plunge pool installed.

Speaker 1 (10:35):
Yeah. When they're answering the question, yeah, then he just
spit his fucking cold brew. Oliver his plunge pool the
worst of Europe. What the hell is he talking about?
And I would be like, I don't know. Actually, you're right.

Speaker 4 (10:52):
M hm.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
So I thought there would be a fun segment for
the show rather than getting right into Trump suing the
I R s successfully, uh, that I would just talk
about the latest truck stuff, like me driving the truck.
So I had a little sound effect. Oh I pulled up.

(11:15):
I had a little sound effect.

Speaker 10 (11:16):
Oh, I mean I have one here It is sounded.

Speaker 5 (11:28):
What is that a real from the real world?

Speaker 1 (11:31):
Oh no, no, no, no, that's from like you driving poorly?
Truck horn says a truck horn side of sound sound
effect from YouTube. They give you two options.

Speaker 3 (11:44):
The one that's going by.

Speaker 1 (11:49):
Anyway. That's the data announces the loading doc report. Oh
I see, that's all that is.

Speaker 3 (11:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (11:59):
So the loading dock report this week is that I
had to go downtown in downtown Nashville with this twenty
six foot truck and back it into the loading dock.

Speaker 5 (12:11):
For Oh my god, you haven't even been trained, have you.

Speaker 1 (12:19):
I have been trained, but I mean it doesn't matter
if you've been trained, because like certain there's no way
you can't get trained to stop traffic in downtown Nashville,
like with your bare hands, so you can back across
the street. Like there's a certain amount of training, like
I understand how to point a truck at something. That's
about it, you know, And what's interesting is so I

(12:45):
so I'm like, I just knew it would be nerve wracking.
But it is true that people will stop if you
get out of the car and hold your hand up
and they see that there's a truck. So we aren't
at the point in society where they'll just run you over,
but that's soon. But the loading docks at this place

(13:05):
are very narrow, and they're supposed to fit two trucks.

Speaker 3 (13:08):
There's like two loading docks.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
One with the short one's short and one's long, one
for a semi and one for like.

Speaker 3 (13:14):
A shorter truck.

Speaker 1 (13:16):
But they are they are, at least as far as
I was concerned trying to back into them. I was like,
this is really narrow. But I don't know, you know enough,
Like I figure I'm wrong because I'm like, you know,
not a not like I haven't been a truck driver
for long. I mean I've driven trucks because I used
to drive trucks for production in the in the New
York City. So I'm but I mean, I'm not. I'm

(13:39):
still like, well, there must be official truck drivers who
know whether this loading dock is narrow or not. I
probably am wrong about that. It's probably standard. So I
managed to get it in there and nice, and but
I noticed right away that the loading dock had a
lot of people on it who were worked on it,

(14:02):
who weren't doing anything and had no intention of doing
anything at all, like not a single like they they
watch and that's they watch people back up into the
place and they just stand there. And then the loading
dock itself was kind of littered with shit, and there

(14:24):
were like four guys. There was like one in the
management of the loading dock. There was a whole manager
of the loading dock, and he was just in his office,
and there was another person who was in charge of
security who was sitting in his office both with the
door closed, and then there were like two other guys
just sort of standing around watching. And so I don't
know if any of this is I don't really notice
any of this. I'm just like, thank god, I got

(14:46):
this fucking truck in this narrow loading dock. Across the
De Munbrian Street in Nashville, right across from the Convention Center,
which of course years ago would have had nobody around
and it would have been easy. But now it's since
Nashville is like the the best city in the world.

Speaker 8 (15:01):
Haha.

Speaker 1 (15:02):
Uh, it has traffic like crazy. So I was just
happy to get in there. So then I go up
and then and then we had to drop off this
these uh uh tampon kits to uh. It was like

(15:22):
a corporate team building exercise where they they wanted their
their workers to like assemble these kits so they can
hire Basically, a corporation can hire a nonprofit to come
and do it do something for their employees, you know,
like a team building thing. So it was like probably
a convention of some corporation that wanted to do tampon

(15:46):
kit building as like a you know, some kind of
outreach also for the company. It's like a PR thing
and a it doesn't matter, but but anyway, they so
we dropped dropped off all this stuff, and then I
had to leave and come back. And when I came back,
I got back in there again. And then this this
time there was a guy from Gatorade trying to park

(16:06):
his truck, and he looked like a proper truck driver,
like he was like sort of looked like the kind
of truck he looked like he we had a big
mustache first of all, So I was like, oh, this
is a real truck driver. So he he had a
lot of trouble getting in there, and he he ran
into the wall. I was standing in in on the

(16:28):
loading dock watching and the people who worked at the
loading dock just said like, he's into the wall. Just
stood there.

Speaker 3 (16:37):
Like he's into the wall.

Speaker 1 (16:37):
And the other guy's yip, he's into the wall. And
did he have a larger truck than him, No, he
had about the same size truck and not he he
didn't have an eighteen wheeler. It was like a twenty
six or maybe even maybe his was even a twenty.
But the guys in the loading dock did yell out
you're into not even yell really but kind of like

(16:58):
lackadaisically said you're into the wall. And uh so I
went out like They're like, I was like, should I
move my mirror? Should I pull in my mirror? And
they're like, yeah, maybe you should pull in your mirror.
So I went down there and try to pull in
my mirror. But the mirrors don't pull in on my truck.
I found out they look like they do, but they don't.
They're like they're riveted or they're right anyway, they don't.

(17:21):
You have to move them. You have to use a
fucking ratchet. You have to use like a you know,
you got you can reposition your mirror, but you got
to do it with a tool. So I couldn't do it.
And so then I helped the guy. I went out
and stopped traffic for the guy so we could back
in again and empathetic trucking. And then he got out
of the truck after he finally got it in there,

(17:41):
and then he said, like, you know, those guys were
like you were into the wall, you know, and he
was like, yeah, this sucks. This place sucks, and uh
and I was like, and then the guys on the
bloating doc said yeah, you're not the first. Yeah, and
then and then and then the guys at the loading
docks said yeah, you're not the first one to say that.

(18:03):
And so then I was like, oh shit, I'm not crazy.
This place does suck. And then I was like proud
of myself because I was like, oh, I can judge
whether something sucks, just like a real official truck driver.

Speaker 5 (18:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (18:18):
But also the moral of the story is that you
didn't damage the wall either.

Speaker 3 (18:23):
Oh they didn't care about.

Speaker 1 (18:24):
That fucking wall. Well no, I know, but you know,
I mean, they don't care. This is a corporate you know.
It's interesting though, how much they cared about the wall.

Speaker 3 (18:32):
They don't care about the wall one bit.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
That's why he's into the wall. It's like they don't.
They're like, who gives it shit? I've never even met
the guy who owns this hotel. You know, he's probably
in some other you know, they don't give a fuck.

Speaker 9 (18:44):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (18:46):
I bet if they were, And this is like, I'm
it doesn't make any difference. I guess that I don't know.
I mean, I don't I think that's what it was called.
But whatever it is, nobody has any respect any building
or anything. If they don't have any you know, they
don't have any proper pay you know, or I'm sure

(19:07):
these guys don't get paid well for standing around the
loading dock, and so you get what you pay for.
And if you don't know the guy who owns the building,
you don't care if there's holes all over the walls,
and they'll never know the guy who owns the building
because no one would ever be able to find out
because you'd call up the company and you'd get AI
until you finally threw your phone out the window. So
you know, there's just no incentive to give a shit.

(19:28):
But it maybe all. I The point of the story
isn't that there's no incentive to give a shit, even
though it's true. In a late capitalistic or just capitalistic
people have been pointing out saying late capitals late capitalism
is pointless. It's all capitalism has always been brutal. But anyway,
trying to find someone who gives a shit is pretty difficult,

(19:55):
and it makes it easy to figure out why. But yeah,
I'm already getting lost for my coffee.

Speaker 9 (20:00):
But uh, it.

Speaker 5 (20:03):
Was it sheet rock that he hit? What kind of
wall was it?

Speaker 1 (20:07):
You know, I don't know the world's cheapest wall, whatever
they would use in a modern hotel.

Speaker 5 (20:11):
So it wasn't like he ran into metal or anything.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
I just like tore some of a pain off of it.
And they have a whole I mean, every building has
a whole staff of undocumented people that do the real work,
so they'll say they'll send some some team of undocumented
people down to fix it. So that's the other thing
is that there's classes of worker. Like when I worked
to day, I mean, I guess I can just say it,

(20:35):
I mean employs tons and tons of undocumented people. Uh
so I probably can't. I don't know. Now that'll end
up on my AI summary and the summary when they
do the chapters for the show. But I mean there's
there's uh this idea that we're deporting people completely just

(20:56):
to satisfy the worst urges of of of a society
that's under duress, and not in any way to actually
affect the real culprits. And the reason why we have
all these undocumented people in the country is so they
can work for cheap for rich people who have no
intention of relinquishing their personal workforce of undocumented people. So

(21:19):
it's just like this idea of just sending out these
unemployed people to beat up moms and kids and stuff
is just absolutely That's where Nazis and fascism are the
right words. I mean, because Nazis also even though they
were racist, and these people are racist as well. Like
the Stephen Miller's of the world. Their ultimate goal is
to make money and you know, steal all the art everything, yes,

(21:47):
like you know, like yes, they they demonized Jews until
they were able to take all their belongings and all
their gold and then eventually kill them and all the
gold out of their gold, out of their teeth. I mean,
that's that's what. There's always a money, I mean not always,

(22:07):
not always, there's not always a money, but I mean,
like you know, the the Nazis used the the the
immigrant the the how do you say the people in
the people in the concentration camps were forced to work
for like Bayer which was then called I G. Farben,
And I mean they were they were they they built

(22:29):
infrastructure for the German army. This is all, Uh, there's
there's a money. It's all about economy. Yeah, there's a money,
huge money. Theft.

Speaker 3 (22:42):
Theft is the principal principal thing.

Speaker 1 (22:44):
And and you know, and I don't mean to seem insensitive,
because there's certainly people who join up because they hate Jews,
you know what I mean. Then there's people mixed in
who really their principal thing is maybe they already have
a good living and they don't want to get rich
and they just want to hurt people. That's sure as true.
But Trump is in this for making money. He doesn't
care about anything about he doesn't care about immigration, he

(23:06):
doesn't care about anything except himself. Stephen Miller is just
a sadist. I don't think he has a you know,
he's he's not, you know, just just just anyway. I
think the point is that that that just a lot

(23:32):
of this is about free labor and money. Racism is
about free labor. If you can convince people some people
are are less than you, then you can make them
work for you for free. I mean, that's what racism
ended up being in the like, Racism is also not
something that anyone's born with. It's you're taught it. You're
taught it because it serves. If you're taught, teach a

(23:53):
kid a racist philosophy, even if it is Stephen Miller,
then it makes it okay for there to be an
underclass that makes more money less money than you. Then
it's okay for there to be an underclass who works
for free in your cotton fields. I mean, racism is
a system that's imposed on children who are indoctrinated into it.
At this point through evangelical churches. This is a capitalist,

(24:19):
This is a money making system. Racism is a money
making device that then infects people for real and takes
on its own life. And then the people who started
it or the people who are benefiting from it can
sit back and watch everybody fight each other. People know
a lot of this, And I don't mean to be
insensitive and say that there's no such thing as a racist.

(24:40):
I certainly don't mean that, but yeah, there's still a
class of people on the loading dock who are above
the class of people who are going to fix that
wall in that loading dock. And that's why they don't
give a fuck. And they also don't give a fuck
because they're just like, I'm already paid nothing anyway, So
fuck these fuck everybody, like you know, It's just dignity

(25:04):
leads to everything. People being dignified means society is is fun,
and people with being denied dignity means society is enraged
and dangerous. And I feel that all the time. Now.
I'm driving this truck, right, and I feel like a
big man when I drive the truck, and I mean that,
like I feel like cool, Like I feel cool when

(25:25):
I when I make it into the loading dock, and
I feel cool when I drop off when I need
to drop off, and I feel cool when I load
it up properly and I don't get hurt and I
get back to the office, I feel fucking cool. And
I got a pair of gloves, and I got and
I got these things I need. And people think you're
kind of cool because you show up in a truck
and you unload the stuff and you do it successfully
without getting hurt, and and you and you, and you

(25:46):
know there's a certain amount of like danger to using
the lift on the back of the truck and stuff
and doing it responsibly makes you feel like accomplished in
this in this tiny way. But that's all a person needs,
that's all anyone wants. And so when I have these
like day weekends now, because I only work three days
a week at this place, I get lost and I
start to be really down on myself when I have

(26:07):
days off, because I don't know what to do and
I and people want to know what to do. People
want to know what to do, and they want to
know what to do to They don't want to do
bad things, they just want to do something. They just
want to do something, and it makes you feel good
to do something, and if it's something that other people
benefit from, which is obviously goods and services and the

(26:27):
whole thing of being alive, you just don't have to wreck.
You don't have to call it economics. You just call
it being on the earth. You do have to exchange
goods and services so you can stay alive, and that
feels good to play a part in. And so all
anybody wants is a little bit of dignity. And it's

(26:51):
not something you can take for people and then have
them just be normal and behave the way you think of,
you know, you have people have to have some purpose
and if they're denied it, they just become sort of
lost and then possibly dangerous or they might might kill

(27:13):
themselves or whatever it is. But it's just like, it
doesn't take much to have a little bit of pride,
you know, and not a negative kind of pride, pride,
just a pride of being like I can do something,
you know, and I'm and I'm tired at the end
of the day, but I did something that somebody needed,
you know, I mean, especially working at a nonprofit. But no,
it doesn't matter where and if you take away everybody's jobs.

(27:34):
Like with AI, I mean, you're just removing dignity. It's
like a dignity removal machine that is indeed, to shout
out to the Cult one of my favorite bands from
way back when, the song Love Removal Machine is what
I'm talking about. And if you want to do some
push ups or just ride around with the windows down,

(27:54):
and I don't know what you do in the car anymore.
I would have said, drink beer, but you're not, so
I don't want to advertise drinking and driving. But if
you're out in the country or something, or you're on
a bit, you can drive around a field maybe and
drink beer and listen to Love Removing Machine. But anyway,
just like I'm not encouraging any kind of bad behavior,
but there is something if you can find some kind

(28:16):
of non some safe way to drive a vehicle that's
blasting Love Removing Machine while you drink beer, it's it's
kind of fun. I mean, back in the eighties that
was like the only thing to do, and it was
pretty you know, acceptable to do some careful drinking and driving.

(28:39):
And it still totally is that way in the in
the rural area. I mean like farm Land. People drive
around beer in the car all the time out there.
It's less less dangerous, but still not recommending it. But
you know, if you want to go, if you were
able to go back in time to the eighties and
listen to either Love Removing Machine or Bad Medicine by
bon Jovi while you are drinking beer, its are I mean,

(29:02):
maybe get a designated driver and do it. That's what
am I saying. That's all you have to do.

Speaker 8 (29:06):
Now, just open your open your sun roof and just
let some air in and.

Speaker 1 (29:10):
Yeah you can, yes, and put on lovable remove a
machine and drink coffee. I mean, that's why I've switched
to coffee.

Speaker 3 (29:15):
It's safer.

Speaker 1 (29:19):
So that is the truck. The loading doc report a
recurring feature that will probably only happen one time.

Speaker 7 (29:29):
I like it.

Speaker 1 (29:34):
I like that one better than that. That one was
sort of anyway.

Speaker 8 (29:42):
I thought that was actual sound effects for you parking
at embassy suites.

Speaker 1 (29:46):
I wish, I wish I was that much of a documentary,
But I wish I was the less blank of a truck.

Speaker 5 (29:55):
Audio.

Speaker 8 (29:55):
You could wear an audio helmet and just like turn
it onund with your chin strap or something.

Speaker 5 (30:01):
Mm hm.

Speaker 1 (30:04):
That's a good idea that might lower my dignity back down.

Speaker 3 (30:09):
I just got it back up.

Speaker 4 (30:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (30:14):
So what Greg saying is he thought I actually recorded Obviously,
he thought I recorded the actual truck horn, and I
would be so cool. But maybe I'll do that. I mean,
I did record those guys in Rhode Island working at
the diner.

Speaker 5 (30:26):
Yeah, audio documentaries are great, and.

Speaker 1 (30:28):
It sounded like shit, but I think it was kind
of fun to listen to anyway. You couldn't really get
an idea. It wasn't as good as in person because
in person.

Speaker 3 (30:34):
They were saying like all kinds of old time stuff.

Speaker 1 (30:37):
But oh so that brings us to our second segment.
This show is so fucking all orderized. Yea, this is GOODA.
This segment, though, is not really a segment. It's just
me mentioning that last week. On last week's episode, I
two weeks ago, I did the Distilled Brooden review guy

(31:00):
who who used to be called Hillbilly Select Reviews, and
then he changed his name to Distilled brood and Reviewed,
and then his channel really took off. Just kidding, it
didn't take off. But this other guy, the Spurgeon Piper,
which for some reason just makes me sick. There's something
about just saying the spurgeon Piper that just makes me.
It sounds like a spurting pipe.

Speaker 3 (31:18):
I don't like it.

Speaker 1 (31:20):
But the spurgeon Piper. I put him in the break
last time talking about some nonsense about pipes. This guy
has talked about pipes and pipe tobacco for like years now,
and they're like, as far as I can tell, a
very similar like it's not like a lot to cover,
I mean, but he's managed to stretch this thing into

(31:42):
just I mean thousands I don't know if it's thousands
of videos, but I mean he's also gotten dressed up.
He started out in his casual clothes. Now he wears
like a big fat tie and looks like a looks
like the mayor of New Orleans or something. He looks
like the not the mayor of New Orleans. I saw
a picture of the governor of Louisiana who looks like
a fucking complete criminal, who's like the guy who's in
charge of who's managing to redistrict all the black districts

(32:04):
down there were the one who canceled the election. That guy. Yeah, well,
Spurgeon Piper is dressed up like him, big fat tie.

Speaker 5 (32:13):
Well, now I'm looking at the spurgeon Piper.

Speaker 8 (32:15):
I haven't seen him in four years. He's definitely more
of a male model than he used to be.

Speaker 1 (32:19):
Yeah, he's like he's gotten like a stylist or something. Yeah,
but he's what he is is he's a like a
Christian pastor or a Christian like a he works in

(32:45):
a church. He's a deacon or something. He's in some
church job where he gets to sit around all day.
And he mentions it in this clip which I put
up last in the last episode, and it's so funny
what he says. He says he gets to smoke a
pipe more than most people do. And he also says
the other that other people who get He says that
other people who get to smoke pipes more than other

(33:06):
people do are mostly writers. He has like a cartoon
in his head of who gets the smoke pipes on
a regular basis, And that cartoon is from the late
nineteenth century apparently. But this guy has some job where
he can sit around in his office at the church
wearing a big fat tie, like a tie like you

(33:27):
would wear it to run for office in Louisiana or
a tie you would wear to the club. I guess
if you were pit Bull or something. He's kind of
dressed a little bit like a I don't know, he's
like a dandy, like I guess a Republican evangelical version.

Speaker 3 (33:42):
Of like a dandy.

Speaker 1 (33:43):
So he looks like a waiter. He looks like a
bartender at a at a Cajun wedding or something. So anyway,
he's He's always said very funny things about like way
back when about pipes, but it seemed like he was

(34:04):
really out of material since day one, coming out of
the gate.

Speaker 3 (34:08):
I felt like he was out out of material.

Speaker 1 (34:10):
But he's managed to do this, and man, oh man,
this is just so funny to me. The quote I
put or the pull the clip I used was he
also has a logo now yea, And he can't. This
is the problem with that's AI clearly though. Oh you're right, folks,
you can't. Here's the thing. The thing about suburgeon Pipe.
I don't know why I'm burying the lead is he
cannot speak very well. Like he's not he doesn't have

(34:33):
a speech impediment or any kind of thing like that.
He just can't. He's not a well spoken guy. He
uses language. He's just he's just he just doesn't speak well.
He just said, he says words wrong and uses words,
he stumbles on his words. He's just not a good spokesman.
He's not a good front man for a channel. But
he's managing to I mean, god, it's really different. He

(34:55):
has definitely managed to try and make himself hot. I
mean that's incredible. I mean, because he wasn't. He's just
like I guess, he's like evangelical Christian hot, which means
he looks like a hunter, like a squirrel hunter that
someone put. I mean, seriously, his tie, it's just his

(35:19):
whole look is.

Speaker 3 (35:20):
Completely out of control and also so funny.

Speaker 1 (35:22):
I would love to know who told them what to get,
like his girlfriend, I guess, or his wife. So here
here's the clip. So this song, this is the song.
I'm just gonna play it, Greg.

Speaker 5 (35:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 11 (35:39):
Pushback one was a video on comparing a blend to
esoterica tanzants thinking it's about as equivalent.

Speaker 1 (35:49):
See there he did it already. It's about as equivalent.
You know, that's not that's you can't say that. Yeah,
you can't say that. That's not a thing you say.
But I understand what he's saying. It's not like you can't.
It's not like you can't understand what he's trying to say.

(36:12):
But you know, just considering how dressed up he is,
and in the fact that he's sitting in like a
study with like three thousand books behind him and says
that about is equivalent, all you can think is he
didn't read those books.

Speaker 11 (36:28):
Access to nowadays compared to those who precede us in
decades or even centuries past, where they would light a
pipe or pack a pipe and light a pipe and
they would smoke it daily, multiple times a day, weeks
on end, without ever thinking about rotating a pipe or
even cleaning it.

Speaker 1 (36:47):
So he's making that up. How does he he knows
that people for centuries never clean their pipes or even
thought about it. Or shit, they might have had to
use the same pipe, but I'm sure they thought about
cleaning it.

Speaker 7 (37:00):
Go back and check it if you want to.

Speaker 11 (37:02):
But I wanted to update you on number one, why
or how I rotate my pipes. I want to get
into why I do and frankly, do.

Speaker 7 (37:09):
We need to do that. It's a good conversation to have, especially,
no it is it so, uh.

Speaker 11 (37:15):
Let me go over essentially how I handle my pipe rotation.

Speaker 1 (37:19):
Please do not do that.

Speaker 11 (37:21):
Speaking of me smoking a pipe and going on to
other pipes that I do have.

Speaker 7 (37:25):
Is is there a rhyme or rhythm to it? And
for me there is a a yes.

Speaker 1 (37:30):
However, is there a rhyme or rhythm to it? And
for me there is a yes. He's always about to
go off the rails, like phonetically or grammar wise. He's
always on the edge of saying just complete gibberish and
falling down it is. But listen to this, greg This
shit is so good. This is coming up before a.

Speaker 7 (37:52):
Lot of ways to skin a cat in this regard,
And that's why.

Speaker 1 (37:54):
There there's a lot of ways to skin a cat
in this regard.

Speaker 7 (37:57):
I'm showing you my way.

Speaker 11 (37:59):
My way is not necessar the right way, all right,
So let me get into it. You usually will notice
on most of my videos I have two pipes, usually
laid out.

Speaker 1 (38:09):
You usually will notice like he's just so at someone.

Speaker 7 (38:12):
And this gets into why I rotate my pipes.

Speaker 11 (38:15):
I'm someone who has a luxury of smoking my pipes
more than others, all right, So you think of more
those who are writers or authors, those who.

Speaker 1 (38:23):
Work I can't even take it writers or authors in
one spot or in an office, but he is. He's
taking us straight out of the movies.

Speaker 11 (38:38):
There are a lot of ways to skin a cat
in this regard, and that's why there is a lot
of conversation on this matter. My way is not necessarily
the right way, all right, So let me get into it.
You usually will notice on most of my videos.

Speaker 7 (38:52):
I have two pipes, usually laid out.

Speaker 11 (38:55):
I am at someone, and this gets into why I
rotate my pipes. I'm someone who has a look smoking
my pipes more than others. All right, So you think
a more those who are writers or authors, those who
work at home in one spot, they're in office, what
have you. They are usually going to be one who
can smoke their pipe more often. You think of the

(39:15):
Tolkiens and C. S Lewis, those are the big examples
of the world.

Speaker 7 (39:18):
Or Charles Spurgeon, the pastor they often Oh my.

Speaker 1 (39:22):
God, and the Christian perspective like C. S Lewis Christians loved. C. S.
Lewis is a Christian, so he's like this guy, does
he really think that.

Speaker 5 (39:39):
Who's Charles Spurgeon?

Speaker 1 (39:41):
Someone only in evangelical Christian would know like he spurgs
the Spurgeon piper, so it must be his hero His
heroes are C. S. Lewis, who wrote what the Chronicles
of Narnia I think, which is like some Christian allegory
masquerading as a children's story, which I listened, I read
and enjoyed a long time ago. But you know, if

(40:02):
you're sitting in front of like two thousand books and
the only author you can think of a C. S. Lewis,
it means you haven't read anything since you were fourteen.
And it also means that the rest of the stuff
you've read has been religious boloney. So you know, like
Charles Spurgeon, like, who the hell's that?

Speaker 7 (40:20):
Like?

Speaker 1 (40:20):
Uh, you know, religious bologney. I don't really too hard.
I got nothing against religion. I just got I have things.
I have things against arrogant people who know nothing. That's all.
In any arena, religion is fine. I think religions anything
that gets you through is wonderful, but not not if
you just get lost in this nonsense, this sort of

(40:43):
This guy's like has a cinematic white man's perspective on
who smokes pipes like This is insane. People smoke weed
all day long, every day out of pipes. You don't
need to be an author to smoke a pipe. Everyone
smokes shit all day, every day. He thinks he's some
part of some elite group, and as usual he's wrong.

(41:10):
I mean, just this kind of guy. I just I'm
not I'm not really as mad as I sound right now.
It's the coffee maybe, but but I do. I do
think that you know the idea of like this, this
can't You can't separate this from underqualified white men going
off about some shit they don't know about and then
putting on an outfit and sitting in front of books
and then deciding what they're saying is correct. Like that

(41:32):
nobody before, for thousands of years, no one even thought
about cleaning their pipes. And that he smokes a pipe.
He also puts himself in this class of people, like
it's like I get to smoke a pipe more than
most people. No, you don't. People smoke pipes all fucking
day anywhere they want. You should try being unemployed. You
can smoke a pipe all fucking day.

Speaker 7 (41:55):
That's me.

Speaker 11 (41:56):
I smoke as little as no days a week, or
no day or some days I spoke none.

Speaker 1 (42:04):
Right there, we should just clip that and just call
that cole Brew got me like and switched it out
for the theme song that was so good a day.

Speaker 11 (42:13):
And I've gone even farther than that, into six bowls
or so, depending on the time of the week.

Speaker 7 (42:18):
So I usually smoke two pipes a day.

Speaker 1 (42:25):
That that paragraph before he said so I usually smoked
two pipes a day was not connected to him saying that, Well,
I want to hear that again. I'm sorry.

Speaker 11 (42:37):
That's why there is a lot of conversation on this matter.

Speaker 7 (42:39):
So I'm chowing you my way.

Speaker 11 (42:41):
My way is not necessarily the right way, all right,
So let me get into it. You usually will notice
on most of my videos I have two pipes, usually
laid out. I am at someone, and this gets into
why I rotate my pipes. I'm someone who has a
luxury smoking my pipes more than others, all right. So
you'd think a more those who are writers or authors,

(43:02):
those who work at home in one spot, they're in office,
what have you, They are usually going to be one
who can smoke their pipe more often.

Speaker 7 (43:10):
You think of the Tolkiens and C. S. Lewis. Those
are the big examples.

Speaker 5 (43:13):
Of the world.

Speaker 1 (43:13):
We we forgot about shut ins and security.

Speaker 11 (43:15):
Guards Charles Spurgeon the pastor they were able to smoke
more often because of their situation.

Speaker 7 (43:23):
That's me.

Speaker 11 (43:24):
I smoke as little as no days a week or
no days, or some days I smoke none. I probably
averaged two to three bowls a day, and I've gone
even farther than that into.

Speaker 7 (43:34):
Six bowls or so, depending on the time of the week.
So I usually smoke two pipes a day.

Speaker 1 (43:41):
That will paragraph is.

Speaker 11 (43:44):
Do I only use two pipes and then switch the
next day? Not necessarily, And so I have evolved in
this regard compared to in the past. And even that
video I mentioned, for instance, the two pipes here, I
have been smoking them.

Speaker 7 (43:58):
I picked them up today.

Speaker 11 (43:59):
Or took him off my rack today, and I will
probably smoke them for the next oh two to three days.

Speaker 1 (44:06):
Oh my god, he has a problem with this. I
just discovered his problem. So he says, I picked it up,
and then he said, I H, I mean I took
him off my rack. Like he gets into the details,
you know what I mean, Like he's like, I picked
up this pipe, Well, I mean I took it off
my rack, which right away makes your you know, your
career as a public speaker pretty much doomed because people

(44:27):
want to hear you know, they don't want you to
be reconsidering what you're saying.

Speaker 3 (44:36):
Constantly.

Speaker 1 (44:37):
So like you picked up your pipe, Well, no, actually
I didn't pick it up. I took it off the rack. Yeah,
that's the same thing as picking it up. What's next?

Speaker 7 (44:48):
All right?

Speaker 1 (44:48):
One more a little bit because this guy is fun
and he was fun for the first like five or
six shows we did when we started. Colbrew got me
like on Twitch.

Speaker 8 (44:56):
But he's also I think, how I'm seeing is he successful?

Speaker 5 (45:01):
You know?

Speaker 1 (45:02):
I mean he has twenty five thousand views on this
this horrible video.

Speaker 8 (45:06):
I'm looking at his Patreon he's got four hundred and
fifty three members.

Speaker 5 (45:12):
So it just shows you that the.

Speaker 1 (45:14):
Power shows you the power of We'll go ahead. Commerce
on YouTube shows the YouTube. It's because we don't put
videos up. That's why we don't.

Speaker 8 (45:21):
Well no, it shows you the power of uh, you know,
it's how you know America. I guess he's maybe he's
Canadian or North America.

Speaker 3 (45:32):
He's not, he's from like Kansas or something whatever.

Speaker 1 (45:35):
Whatever.

Speaker 8 (45:35):
I mean, we could all have healthcare. Right. If we
can support suspurgeon Piper, we can afford universal.

Speaker 1 (45:40):
Healthcare, right. But the kind of people support subursion Piper
think universal healthcare is communists. It's a problem, so they
support the spurgeon Piper instead because I think it has
got to do it still valid because oh yeah, but
I'm just saying like that, this, yes, it is complex,
Like you can't like this channel if people are we're

(46:01):
not completely lost. If we weren't lost as a species,
this channel wouldn't exist or have any fans at all,
you know, I mean, this is just YouTube shouldn't even exist.
I mean, YouTube by itself, even though I love it,
is a drug that will destroy society. Like any video
content will destroy a society. It turns out it just

(46:23):
will distract you. You'll end up watching this guy who
knows nothing about even the thing he cares the most
about talk because it is fun. It's fun to see
other people do stuff, no matter what it is, and
especially if the other person is doing stuff that's sort
of dumb, it's really fun to watch. But that's really
disrupted the world's attention span to the point where nobody

(46:46):
knows what the hell's going on. But anyway, just so
let me see if I can get I'm gonna read
some of the comments.

Speaker 3 (46:52):
There's actually no reason to keep going with a listening
to old whatever his name is.

Speaker 1 (46:57):
But I think he'll be around maybe in future show
because he's kind of fun to listen to to hear
him stumble through his words about pipes, you know, which
is just I just want to send him a letter
that says people are smoking pipes whenever they want, all
the time, no matter what they're doing. If they want
to smoke a pipe, no one gives a fuck about

(47:17):
smoking a pipe. Also, they just do it. And if
you get obsessed with smoking pipes, chances are you probably
have an unhappy marriage or something. Why are you even
making these videos go home rotating your pipes? Why would
you want to? Is the title of the video. But
it is true that we should have video clips on stuff.

(47:42):
Everybody engages with video, even interviews, Like I had the
interview with Kristen Toomey and I was gonna just put
up the audio, and she's like, you gotta put the
video up, Like where's the video.

Speaker 9 (47:51):
Going to be?

Speaker 1 (47:52):
I mean, it's just as simple. People would rather hear
I mean, people would rather see an interview than hear it.
I mean, people will still listen to audio, but we should.
You know what you do is you hire a producer
or something to cut clips. I mean you clip. That's
all the Sam Cedar the the majority of report with

(48:15):
Sam Cedar. You know the reason I the reason I
found them is because I watched like ten minute there.
I watched their long form thing chopped up into ten
minute bits, and then I got into it, and then
I started listening to the longer form. So anyway, we're
working on that. But the Spurgeon Pipers ahead of us
and that insane video, I'm sure a lot of people

(48:36):
are watching it for fun though. I bet actually Spurgeon
Piper probably has these sort of book club type events.
You know how much fun it would be to get
people together who all like despise the Spurgeon Piper and
hate watch them in a group. That would be so
much fun. And everyone can dress up like him, and
they could smoke pipes like way more than he says anyone,

(48:56):
does you know what I mean? Like you can smoke
pipes like five times while you're watching and be like,
I already beat Spurgeon piper or I'm not even c. S. Lewis,
I'm not even an author, and I just smoked a
pipe seven times while we were watching this thing. Okay,
so now we've got comments. Let's check the comments, because
then we get an insight into what his fans are like.

(49:17):
Or maybe everyone just says fuck you in the comments.
Their first comment.

Speaker 8 (49:23):
Preacher Charles Spurgeon smoked a pipe when I can't.

Speaker 5 (49:26):
Oh my god.

Speaker 4 (49:27):
Actually he is getting heat.

Speaker 1 (49:28):
He's getting heat from the people in the audience, saying like, basically,
I smoke a pipe whenever I want, asshole, listen to this.
One year ago. I only own one pipe. It's an
mm corn cob. I smoke it every day, three times
a day.

Speaker 4 (49:46):
Ah god, it's so fucking funny. Oh my god, we
did make that.

Speaker 1 (49:51):
That's probably why this this video came up first. This
must be one of his most successful videos because people
were so pissed that he said he gets to smoke
pipes more than most people. Oh it's so good. Yes,
everybody's mad about it. I guess I thought people would
let it go, but they didn't. I know, this pipe
smoking was a simple pleasure from my I know. This

(50:13):
is another comment I know this pipe smoking was a
simple all caps pleasure from my father and grandfather. One pipe,
one blend, multiple times a day all their lives. Oh god,
everyone's letting him have it. I have sixteen pipes. Now,
this is someone who actually on his side. Fucking hell.

(50:36):
Listen to this comment. This is Oh my god, get ready, brewers,
this is good shit.

Speaker 3 (50:42):
And then we'll take a break. After I read these things,
I'm getting.

Speaker 1 (50:44):
Pretty heated comment from pies on vin JK one year ago.
I have sixteen pipes in my rotation, so this is
his people. I smoke every day three to five bowls,
and I'm an aromatic smoker. Parentheses Captain, Black, Royal or Velvet.
Two of my pipes I use only at home. I

(51:06):
have an his churchwarden and a Calabash pipe I picked
up at an antique store. Usually those are the ones
I used for my first smoke of the day. Then
I'll use a different pipe the rest of the day.
I do realize how addicting it can be when you
purchase different kinds of pipes, but I feel they should
get equal usage. That way you don't burn them out
too soon, and why not show off the different styles

(51:28):
you own. I'm not a huge fan of English blends,
so I don't have to segregate my pipes or you
use certain ones for certain blends, and I totally understand
why you would do that. I have a seventy plus
year old Doctor Grabeau duke that used to belong to
my great uncle Lawrence. Today the style is called the Lark.

(51:48):
It has a small bowl, so I call it my
short smoker. If I don't want to smoke more than
thirty minutes, I use that pipe.

Speaker 4 (51:56):
Jesus Christ.

Speaker 1 (51:57):
We buy pipes for the same reason we buy different
tobaccos to enjoy them. So a little shot for a
little shot at old Spurgeon piper for being self important.
Oh man, this is good stuff.

Speaker 9 (52:12):
M M.

Speaker 1 (52:12):
Sorry for the throat clearing. Doing better today than I've
been doing. Even though I'm new to the hobby and
have collected some decent pipes, I try to rotate them regularly. However,
when I want to smoke a heavy Latakia blend, I
use only one specific pipe for it. This is all

(52:33):
craziness I want to read more about. I love that
comment where it's like I have a corn coot pipe
and I smoke it whenever I want fuck face, I
want to find more of those. I don't have many. Oh,
I don't have many pipes, and I smoke every All right,
here's what I like, and then I'll stop. I don't

(52:53):
have many pipes, and I smoke everything in all my pipes.
I don't thoroughly clean them often, but after all, while
you can tell when you need to thoroughly clean them.
I also don't smoke very often. Maybe once or twice
a week.

Speaker 3 (53:08):
That's what I'm talking about.

Speaker 1 (53:11):
I love that.

Speaker 3 (53:16):
Oh yeah, his name is Wilson.

Speaker 1 (53:18):
He calls himself Wilson because someone wrote, thanks for the
great information. Thanks for the great information, Wilson.

Speaker 9 (53:25):
HM.

Speaker 1 (53:28):
Someone else wrote love your videos. Well, here's one that
says just last one.

Speaker 3 (53:36):
Sorry, I can't stop.

Speaker 5 (53:37):
He's got a store, he's got murdered.

Speaker 1 (53:39):
I rotate my pipes daily just because I like smoking
different pipes.

Speaker 5 (53:45):
I like that one.

Speaker 1 (53:46):
Okay, So anyway, spurgeon pipe er, Thank you man. If
we're listening, I'm sorry. If i'm you know, I know
you're not, so it doesn't really matter. But I would
like to make say that everybody's you know, having their difficulties.
It's the world you know, and we're all getting by
the best we can. But I do think that a
lot of people are smoking pipes whenever they want, not
just authors.

Speaker 8 (54:08):
His his uh merch store is bizarre. It says, uh,
he's got he's selling he's selling die cut stickers, and
it says reeking gallants. Says what reaking reaking or.

Speaker 5 (54:22):
E E K I n G gallants?

Speaker 8 (54:25):
That's a sticker, yeah, and it says And it's got
a picture of a guy smoking a pipe sitting down,
and then he's got mugs with that logo on it.

Speaker 1 (54:34):
He's got hoodies wreaking gallants.

Speaker 8 (54:36):
I'm looking at hoodie.

Speaker 5 (54:41):
Hoodie.

Speaker 1 (54:43):
Oh my god. Okay, here we go.

Speaker 8 (54:47):
No wonder he's posting like a mad man. He's making
he's making money off this endeavor.

Speaker 1 (54:53):
We could have merch in two seconds, though, we just
don't do it. All we have to do is make
like you can get those websites where you just like
set up up a website and they make it's probably
you get ripped off, but he probably has a he's
probably partnered with a company that makes the things to order.
Like That's the thing that you can do now, is
you get a merch you set up a merch store
and basically they just make it because I.

Speaker 3 (55:14):
Bet no one's buying his wreaking gallons.

Speaker 1 (55:16):
But listen, he actually does.

Speaker 5 (55:17):
Have you bet wrong?

Speaker 1 (55:18):
I bet you think so?

Speaker 5 (55:20):
Yeah, I mean what he's doing it.

Speaker 1 (55:22):
How many people have you seen wear a wreaking gallants
us hoodie?

Speaker 5 (55:26):
Wow?

Speaker 1 (55:27):
Although we're not in Kansas, we're not in the we're
not in the evangelical circles in Kansas that he runs
in where they can smoke pipes whenever they want because
they're authors, okay. Wreaking gallants was a historical nickname given
to habitual Elizabethan and jacob and tobacco smokers, first introduced

(55:47):
to the England to England in the late sixteenth century.
These early smoking enthusiasts, enthusiasts or gallant gentleman would regularly
indulge in tobaggies or smoking dens orgies. They smoked heavily
to achieve a nicotine high, a state they referred to
as a dry drunk. So spurgeon pipe is an alcoholic

(56:15):
and he doesn't say anything about that. It's like, there's nicotine.
That's why people like to smoke pipes. It's not just
because they want to wear a big tie and sitting
a study. They're getting high in their own way. And
especially if you're an evangelical Christian, you don't get to
get high. So this is the closest you can get,
is like diet coke and pipe tobacco. So he's actually
an addict, which I don't know. So are we where

(56:38):
Colebrew got me?

Speaker 9 (56:39):
Like?

Speaker 8 (56:39):
I mean, that's but he has a nice office for
the brick wall in it.

Speaker 1 (56:43):
That's because he's like funded by the damn all.

Speaker 8 (56:46):
The money funded by tax free minutes.

Speaker 1 (56:49):
That's see, all the money that's supposed to be going
towards society is going to these dumb asses. And there
they're pipe smoking houses, you know people that. Yeah, joining
the clergy has always been a way to get your
bills paid.

Speaker 8 (57:02):
I'm surprised he doesn't have his own custom blend.

Speaker 5 (57:05):
I see that in this future.

Speaker 1 (57:06):
I mean, you know, like even growing up Catholic, Catholic
priests had such a good gig, you know, even in
the seventies, like they got a house to live in
paid for, they had no rent. All they had to
do was come out of the house once a week
and make some speech about being nice to everybody, which
turned out to be horseshit anyway. So so Brewers Colebrew

(57:33):
got me like Brewers, right, So naming naming things is
naming people. Naming groups of people things is good for business.
The Wreaking Gallants the team. The term comes from the pungent,
lingering smell of burning tobacco leaves on the clothes and
breaths and breath. Their devotion to the habit was intense.

(57:56):
Well healed Wreaking Gallants frequently had man serve been solely
just dedicated to carrying their smoking paraphernilia. Okay, so that's it.
He thinks he's one of these people and he wishes
he had a slave.

Speaker 8 (58:09):
Well, Spurgeon Piper was anti slavery.

Speaker 5 (58:13):
I read that in his Wikipedia.

Speaker 1 (58:15):
Oh really, the guy he's talking about.

Speaker 8 (58:18):
Yeah, it's just an actual show is named after was
a minister who has had an anti slavery stance.

Speaker 5 (58:23):
He was from London.

Speaker 1 (58:26):
Is his name, Spurgeon Piper.

Speaker 8 (58:27):
Yeah, he was a preacher, a prince of preachers.

Speaker 5 (58:31):
That's his nickname.

Speaker 1 (58:31):
Oh okay, well, then he doesn't okay, he doesn't want
a slave to bring him his smoking paraphernalia, but a
low paid somebody who definitely can't smoke a pipe as much.

Speaker 3 (58:38):
As he can.

Speaker 1 (58:39):
He'd be like, hello, manservant, thank you for bringing me
my rotated pipes. I'm about to do one of my videos,
so please stay the fuck away from the room. Also,
I was wondering, do you ever wish you could smoke
a pipe as much as me? Manservant? Man Servant's like,
I've been smoking a pipe all fucking day, you asshole.

(59:01):
What do you think I do out back while you're
making these absurd videos?

Speaker 2 (59:06):
Ah?

Speaker 1 (59:07):
An interesting perspective from the riff raff. Thank you, manservant.
Oh are you all?

Speaker 4 (59:14):
I smoking?

Speaker 1 (59:15):
By whatever the fuck I want? You ask whole?

Speaker 9 (59:17):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (59:17):
Yes, are you an author? No? I sit on a
hay bail out back shooting dice, you dummy. The working
class smokes pipes whatever the fuck they want to. They
just don't make videos about it wearing a suit. Anyway.
Enjoy your your whatever it is pipe smoking you talk

(59:38):
about NonStop.

Speaker 8 (59:39):
Yeah, I think this church should give Wilson some more
work to do.

Speaker 1 (59:43):
I think we should call up this church and blow
up this whole scheme. You gotta find this church and
be like, listen, do you aware that you have an
influencer parking out of your out of the room, or
he's supposed to be studying these books and he can
barely speak English, so he's obviously not reading these books.
That's he's This guy's trying to get laid. He's also

(01:00:06):
so high on nicotine that he's anyway, he's gone bananas.
Just monitor him.

Speaker 3 (01:00:17):
It's just a hot.

Speaker 1 (01:00:18):
Tip from mister X. And disguise your voice too. Hello,
are you aware of spurdon Piper's YouTube channel? Excuse me,
Oh forget, I'm just gonna say my regular voice is this.
Uh do you know your pastor is making videos talking

(01:00:42):
about anyway we'll do that?

Speaker 8 (01:00:44):
Well, well, well they certainly, they certainly know about it
because it's probably bringing new charishioners to the church.

Speaker 1 (01:00:51):
Yeah, wreaking gallants, noll stink of nicotine, that's what, except
no one knows that term, and they'll be like, gosh,
there's a lot of stinky men.

Speaker 8 (01:01:05):
Seems like Wilson is a Baptist because Spurgeon Piper was.
I know Charles Spurgeon was an English particular Baptist preacher.

Speaker 1 (01:01:15):
Well we know this guy's name is Wilson. I wonder
if we could find out anyway. I do think you're right.
He's probably bringing in a lot of new parishioners, but
not the type they want, wreaking gallants to be specific.

Speaker 8 (01:01:31):
Okay, I was yeah, okay, that's that was a good
update on Spurgeon Piper.

Speaker 1 (01:01:36):
Yeah, we got Sburgeon Piper going. We got Glad to
be back talking to talking about him, and uh yeah,
maybe who knows. I think I've already put him down
too much to have him up here on the show.

Speaker 8 (01:01:48):
But maybe we should create some gear and to see
if it sells. We'll use the same company as Spurgeon
Piper does.

Speaker 1 (01:01:57):
Yeah, let's get a fucking you going with them, start
a website where it says the numbers spargeon sales versus ours.
We'll do all that, right, we'll do that right when
we're back. We come back. We're gonna take a break.
This is Colebrew got me like episode two twenty four.

Speaker 9 (01:02:22):
Hey everyone, this is gonna be another video on opening
decades old can foods. This time I only have three
cans and one jar because they're kind of hard to
come by. I got these at somebody's estate sale in
their basement they were forgotten about for many, many years.
These cans have some very bad rust damage to them,

(01:02:45):
so I'm not gonna be eating them. I'm just gonna
be opening them up to see what they look like.

Speaker 1 (01:02:51):
We're back, Colebrew got me like episode two twenty four.
I wonder what I put in the break this time, Like,
I'm kind of doing this in this weird reverse way
where I add the audio in the break and then
I talk about it the next week. So that's I

(01:03:13):
guess we're gonna do it that way. But I can't
remember what. Got some shows coming up? I might as
well announce them now, just for the heck of it. Well,
I'm thinking of it before I forget May twenty fourth,

(01:03:36):
which is very soon. Now, what is that eleven days
from now or something or less? Oh gosh, nine days,
eight days away, Oh my gosh. So next Sunday, ME
and Kristen Toomey doing stand up at my friend Britt
and her husband Jeff's place in Chicago called Space Time

(01:03:56):
Sounds or space Time whatever it is. It's space Time.

Speaker 7 (01:04:08):
Is.

Speaker 1 (01:04:08):
The name is comedy. They have a studio and they
have a yeah, and it's called Me and Kristen decided
to call it Comedy Cookout because it's like Memorial Day weekend,
I think, or it's some kind of weekend, isn't it.

Speaker 5 (01:04:20):
Yeah, it is.

Speaker 1 (01:04:23):
So it's at space Time Chicago. They also have a studio,
but they call the little venue space Time Chicago. But
it's at thirty four nineteen West Fullerton Avenue in Chicago,
thirty four nineteen West Fullerton And it's Sunday night, the
twenty fourth doors at seven, show at eight. Tickets are
twenty bucks, and it's just gonna be great because I

(01:04:46):
love Kristin. To me, I'm so excited to be doing
a show with her, And you know, I just don't
get up to Chicago that much. And I tried to
book some more shows in Chicago, but I didn't really succeed.
But I also did it a little bit last minute.
But if anyone has a has a show they want

(01:05:07):
me to be on on Saturday night, particularly in Chicago,
I would be or a house show type thing.

Speaker 3 (01:05:13):
I would do it.

Speaker 1 (01:05:15):
But if not, come Sunday. It's gonna be so fun.
And then May thirtieth here in town Saturday May thirtieth
at Frans Me, I'm playing with a band Justin and
the Cosmics are playing, and so is Corey Coyote. Corey
Parsons is his name, but he goes by Corey Coyote.

(01:05:37):
Great people, some of my best friends here, And I
mean Corey is not my best friend, but musically, musically
one of my good friends, and I really like him
a lot. And and anyway, all of them are going
to be It's all of us on at Frans which
is such a great venue to see a show. It's

(01:05:57):
this old dive bar on Digger Some Pike. So that's
Saturday the thirtieth Doors. I think the show starts at
eight doors at seven thirty or something like that.

Speaker 3 (01:06:08):
You know, doors. Whatever. It's just come over.

Speaker 1 (01:06:10):
There around eight o'clock on Saturday the thirtieth, and then
then in Los Angeles Sunday, the twenty first of June,
I'm playing with a band at Healing Force of the

(01:06:31):
Universe Records. I don't know if tickets are I think
ticket I'm not sure tickets are on sale for that yet.
But June twenty first in Los Angeles, and the night
before that, June twentieth, Saturday, June twentieth, the movie Chris
crofton Nashville Famous is playing at the Lyric Hyperion in
Silver Lake, which will be a lot of fun. That's
Saturday Night at the Lyric Hyperion Saturday night, June twentieth.

Speaker 3 (01:06:54):
In Los Angeles.

Speaker 1 (01:06:57):
And I think that's it for now. It's cool that
the documentary is showing. Yeah, well, the documentary is like
it's now on the loose. We can show it whenever
we want. So there's lots of people I want to
talk to about possibly coming to their town and showing it.
Some fans of the show and some fans of Daily

(01:07:19):
Zeitgeist have talked to me about it, and I'm looking
at coming to Tulsa and Austin and Rhode Island. I
want to show it in Providence and on Block Island.
But the good news is it's like it's got a
like we can do whatever we want with it now.

(01:07:39):
Because we tried to get into we were waiting to
hear from Tribeca Film Festival, which was a long shot
because they it's just so corporate and even though we
hadn't like, somebody knew somebody and that was the only
reason we even went through the motions of it. But
we didn't get in. And doesn't mean the documentary rules.
I feel like if film festivals, like we didn't get

(01:08:01):
into south By Southwest either, and that's like the perfect
place for this film. But those those shows, those those
those festivals are not at all grassroots anymore. They're all corporate,
infestive corporations. So it's like there isn't anything a corporation
won't pounce on and ruin. I mean everybody knows that,
but I mean it's really time to step outside of

(01:08:22):
those places and start showing art in different starting your
own film festivals, because really there was there's no movie
that's more south By Southwest in spirit than this movie.
It's about a weirdo artist me, you know, slightly unknown.
I mean, it's music. I'm a musician. It's like it's

(01:08:44):
you know, it's just a perfect film for like south
south By Southwest, and you know it's just not that's
not what Southwest Southwest is about now. It's about it's
about like this, this this industry that's trying to exist
in its corporate Like the movie industry is going through
its death throws because it keeps trying to exist in
this corporate model. It has to we have to find workarounds.

(01:09:07):
It's like going going headlong into Netflix is not how
you make a movie anymore, not if you want to
make something interesting. You know, trying your bashing your head
against south By Southwest is not how you make a
movie either. But it's just like we just keep thinking
in terms of those old models. You know that that's
that's with diminishing with with well diminishing results. I mean,

(01:09:30):
look at the look at what you look at what
your local.

Speaker 3 (01:09:33):
Theater is showing.

Speaker 1 (01:09:37):
You know, there's no there's no means toke.

Speaker 8 (01:09:40):
Used to be the place where you'd get you know,
these film festivals used to be the place where you'd
get possibly picked up for distribution and and get paid,
you know, get the cost of your film covered maybe,
and then that company would take on the burden of
selling it and distributing in it. But that's sort of
gone away, and so there's actually no purpose to film festivals.

Speaker 1 (01:10:02):
Kind of the accept small ones and then the small
ones are great, like the five Film Festival here in Nashville,
and there's lots of those film festivals.

Speaker 5 (01:10:11):
It's a channel.

Speaker 8 (01:10:11):
I mean, uh, Chattanooga Film Festival would have been maybe
a good fit. I don't know if Seth thought of that,
but it's sort of a genre film festival about you know.

Speaker 5 (01:10:22):
But anyway, I'm glad you at least tried to.

Speaker 1 (01:10:24):
Well, it's overwhelming. Yeah, Seth had to apply to these things.
You know, it's a pain to do all this bullshit.
It's like, you know, you have to make a movie
and then you have to do all this other shit too,
and and then you're doing that stuff kind of knowing
it's like a pointless because you're like it's not and
no and not not because you think the film's not worthy.
It's just like you're just like it's not going to
get in. I just know it.

Speaker 5 (01:10:43):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:10:43):
It's like, but I still have to do it. And
that takes all your energy applying to the Tribeca Film Festival,
and you really should be trying to seek out smaller festivals.
But corporations will just turn everything into like they'll just
buy the festival. I mean in the in a way
they'll have their own movie night and then those movies

(01:11:04):
like they'll be like, oh, we're gonna have a we're
gonna sponsor the festival, and then you have a VIP
rooms just for a twenty four, and a twenty four
is like actually supposed to be the most you know,
most already there is, so that's maybe the wrong one
to pick. But still you can't depend on these big studios,
you know, I mean, you know, I just you have

(01:11:25):
to figure out some other way. And so thinking about that,
like thinking about Tucker Carlson. So Tucker Carlson started his
own quote film festival in the sense that he after
he got fired. Of course, he started out with corporate
He started out making his name on Fox News, which
is there's no worse way to make a name for yourself.
But then he took that and started his own independent

(01:11:47):
media company and has built like a podcast that's like
one of the top ten podcasts in the world or whatever.
And now he has this giant audience that he can
kind of say to some extent what he wants. He
certainly can say more than you can say on CNN
or CBS about Gaza and about like he can say
Gaza is a genocide because he has some level of independence.

(01:12:11):
He's the worst example of this, but he has a
voice in this pathetic landscape where the media is owned
by corporations who literally will not let you say anything
about Gaza or there's this clip of him talking to
Kevin O'Leary. This this horrible man who's on who's been
dignified and normalized by this horrible reality show Shark Tank,

(01:12:35):
which is essentially Hunger Games, you know, the same as
the Apprentice, making Kevin O'Leary look like a reasonable person.
And Kevin O'Leary is out of his fucking mind and
he's now building the world's largest data center or I
don't know. I don't know if it's the world's largest

(01:12:56):
even I mean it must be. I can't believe that
there are other ones. It's twice a side of New
York City, the whole city, the whole island of Manhattan.
It's twice that size. That's unimaginable. And so what a journalist,
a journalist that isn't beholden to advertisers like the New

(01:13:20):
York Times would do, would be well, the New York
Times is maybe the It's hard to split these things apart,
like because The New York Times will talk about some stuff,
but they don't talk about Gaza properly at all. They
constantly let Israel off the hook in really crazy ways
where they rewrite headlines and use words completely that don't
you know, like just say crazy stuff like Israel like

(01:13:43):
taking part of Lebanon, they say is like a security zone.
Like that's the same way, except when Russia does it,
they say it's an invasion. It's like, you know, the
New York Times says some stuff that's real. But someone
else smarter than me pointed this out the failure of
mainstream media because it's because it's controlled by these these

(01:14:07):
outside editors who won't let you do proper journalism. It'll
kind of they'll kind of let you do journalism. It's
like NPR. NPR takes corporate sponsors, so NBR doesn't do
the hard hitting stuff against Kevin O'Leary and his they'd
report on it, like a data center which is unusually

(01:14:29):
large is going to be put into Utah and uh,
people are concerned. Some people say it's good, like they
have to do that kind of reporting. Whereas Tucker Carlson
gets Kevin O'Leary on his show and then says, why
are taxpayers subsidizing data centers? Like where is that question?
It's the first question any journalist should ask, like why

(01:14:52):
are we subsidizing and not just about data centers, about
everything the first question every But here's the thing, Well,
there's a few things also. Those billionaires won't come on
your show or give you interviews anymore. So Tucker Carlson
is taking advantage of the fact that he used to
be such a giant piece of shit that carried water

(01:15:12):
for these guys to trick them into coming on his
show and then letting him have it. So that's only
going to last a little while. Like Kevin O'Leary will
never go back on Tucker Carlson, neither will Mike Huckabee,
and neither will Ted Kruz. But he's got them once
he takes them in there and they figure it's going
to be a friendly interview. But I'm just saying that
what Tucker Carlson is now doing is dignifying himself and
making himself look like a journalist because we don't have

(01:15:34):
real journalism, so it enables fascism to have every which
way journalism fails. Is like, is a failure of journalism
is responsible for everything good, and it's a I'm not
in any way putting journalism down at all. I'm saying
good journalism is the only thing we have as a

(01:15:58):
way to keep people honest. And so here's Tucker Carlson
making himself look like a badass journalist by just doing
the basics. And it's just makes me so sad that
a guy is bad as horrible as Tucker Carlson gets
to do this because because CNN, the Washington Post, the

(01:16:19):
La Times, MSNBC won't just they can't do this. They
also can't get these guys to sit down. It's also
like that AI documentary I saw. This is how the
guy from the AI documentary should have treated whoever that
guy is, that fucking muppet that's the face of Ai,

(01:16:40):
Sam Altman, Altman. This is what he should have done
to Sam Altman. But then he would not have come
in his movie. He would not have been on his movie.
But here's Tucker Carlson looking like Edward R. Murrow because
no one else is doing it.

Speaker 3 (01:16:53):
My taxpayers should have to pay for this.

Speaker 12 (01:16:55):
If it's a private business and your tenants are some
of the richest companies in the world, why would taxpayers
be required as they now are, to subsidize this.

Speaker 6 (01:17:05):
They don't, They don't necessarily have to do that. They
just won't win any contracts. It's it's a it's a competition.
But why are you getting tax breaks?

Speaker 7 (01:17:15):
Is my career?

Speaker 6 (01:17:15):
No, everybody, when you go back and you say, what
incentives can you give us to invest fifteen billion dollars
in the first one point five gigs, that's what it takes.
I have to go raise fifteen billion dollars.

Speaker 7 (01:17:28):
That's just.

Speaker 12 (01:17:28):
But anyone who starts a business, why should taxpayers have
to pony up for that?

Speaker 7 (01:17:33):
They don't, but of course they do.

Speaker 12 (01:17:34):
If you if you, I mean, if you're getting a
tax breaker, they're not.

Speaker 7 (01:17:38):
They're making up the difference. There's a state, biddy, that's
no problem. That's no problem.

Speaker 6 (01:17:42):
I can build it in Texas, I can build it
in Jacksonville, Mississippi.

Speaker 12 (01:17:45):
There, But why, if it's such a good business, would
you be asking taxpayers to help pay for it without
giving them equity in the company? Are you giving taxpayers shares?

Speaker 6 (01:17:54):
No, the investors get the shares. But here's why they
would do it.

Speaker 12 (01:17:57):
Why would the taxpayers have to I mean, if you
want to start a business, but why am I, as
a taxpayer, forced to pay for your business?

Speaker 7 (01:18:04):
I don't get it.

Speaker 4 (01:18:05):
Let me ask him.

Speaker 1 (01:18:06):
There you go the very basic questions everyone should ask
a billionaire and if you lose access, then you lose access.
But then you say, I can't get any of these
guys to talk because I've asked them the simplest questions
about this business model. But you know what, Tucker Carlston
apparently wants to run for president, and he's confusing Liberals

(01:18:29):
like people I know, are like, why is Tucker Carlson
turned into a good person. He hasn't. He's just doing
the basics, and since no one else is doing it,
he's looking like a hero. And it's not really the
journalist's fault. It's that they're working for corporate outlets, just
the same way movie makers are looking for corporate outlets

(01:18:50):
to put out their movie and ending up not making
movies that are worth a damn unless there's some legacy
guy like Paul Thomas Anderson, who I'm grateful for, but
there's You can't just have one. You need to have
twenty people making movies like one battle after another, so
people get the message that this isn't just some you know,

(01:19:11):
this is not a nit a niche sort of criticism
of society, like one battle after another. You know, like
the conservatives can say, oh, it's just one guy who
was like, a liberal made this fucking movie. It's such
an exaggeration of what's going on.

Speaker 5 (01:19:27):
You know.

Speaker 1 (01:19:27):
But then if people like, what if there was an
actual you know, how many movies about that shit there
would be right now? If it was like if there
was money, every movie would be about this. Uh, did
I talk about the short film that I saw Gosh?

Speaker 3 (01:19:45):
I think I did.

Speaker 1 (01:19:46):
I did, But there was a short film I saw
about made by a Jewish filmmaker about about Israeli racism
that was very hard hitting short film you know that
got made. You didn't remember when I saw the compilation
of movies I went to see the Bell Court, I
went and saw the Yeah, my roommate wanted to go
see this, Like like the shorts that were nominated for

(01:20:09):
an Oscar, and one of them was a Jewish made,
an Israeli made film criticizing Israel for racism towards Palestinians.
It was about a Palestinian butcher and it was called Blood.
I can't remember what it was called, but it was

(01:20:33):
you know, a movie that probably couldn't get made in
America or certainly you know a movie that's made by
an anti Zionist, movie made by a Jew is Like,
you know, that's like something that really screws up this
narrative that it's anti Semitic to criticize Israel's war crimes.

(01:20:56):
It's so they don't it's not something that's going to
get a lot of traction. But that's the kind of
stuff that if you if you need to go through
a corporation, you're never going to get your movie made
about right.

Speaker 8 (01:21:05):
Well, you remember that movie No Other Land, about the
destruction of a Palestinian community on the West Bank. I
went and saw that at the Bell Court, and that
had trouble getting distribution because it's uh, an Israeli filmmaker
showing some mercy for community.

Speaker 1 (01:21:22):
Was that a documentary?

Speaker 5 (01:21:24):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:21:24):
I think someone involved in that was killed.

Speaker 5 (01:21:26):
Yeah, twenty twenty four anyway, and I didn't remember that
was the content of your film that you saw.

Speaker 8 (01:21:33):
I guess you did mention it.

Speaker 5 (01:21:37):
It was.

Speaker 1 (01:21:42):
You know, it's difficult, it's it's it's it's like it's
a it's just it's just amazing, like, uh, how much
this is Israel. Israel's leadership going berserk in the Israeli

(01:22:08):
army going berserk has really made everybody insane in a way,
because because.

Speaker 3 (01:22:25):
Because it just makes.

Speaker 1 (01:22:26):
Everything ring hollow when you try and talk about some
other outrage like the news. If you can't condemn, if
you can't condemn atrocities, then you can't can If you
can't condemn all atrocities, then you can't condemn atrocity with
any residents. So now if you have something you're mad about,

(01:22:48):
like Republicans redistricting, but at the same time you'll never
admit that Israel is doing something wrong, then it sort
of fucks your whole You've lost your authority to talk
on everything. So then nobody believes people lose their moral
to speak about the absurd description of Scott Galloway calling
you know the moral clarity. I mean, we're in a

(01:23:10):
moral the murkiest moral. The corporations have made it so
nothing makes any sense. And uh, and anyway journalism can
save us if if, if it's a if, we can manage.
But but it's not gonna be Tucker Carlson. I mean,

(01:23:31):
it's just horrible. It's horrible. It's just horrible to see
Tucker Carlson being a hero or you know, being able
to be able to carve out that space from because
everything everybody else is failing. So anyway, that's Carlston.

Speaker 8 (01:23:44):
You know, in addition to you having gone to school
with him, he's an educated person and he has been
in the media for decades and decades.

Speaker 5 (01:23:53):
So he is uh. I mean he was on.

Speaker 8 (01:23:57):
I'm Not CNN Show back in a Day, Crossfire. I mean,
he's been doing this for a long time, so he
knows how to play the game better than anybody.

Speaker 1 (01:24:06):
Oh yeah, and and and and I don't know how
you fix the fix the fact that that billionaires are
are in a position where they can pick and choose
who they give interviews to and really don't have any
to gain by giving interviews at all. So Kevin O'Leary
wishes he didn't give that interview and will never sit

(01:24:26):
with Tucker Carlson again.

Speaker 8 (01:24:31):
Well, it's kind of like Larry Summer's talking to John Stewart.

Speaker 1 (01:24:34):
Yeah, like there's just like a couple of yeah, we
get lucky enough that there's a couple of mistakes, but
then we should talk about we should still request interviews
from these people and not say, well they refuse to comment,
say I can't get any billionaires to sit down with
me and explain why data centers need huge tax breaks
like that should be on NPR. That's not that's not
and it's not opinion journalism. It's just a way that

(01:24:57):
you could confront these people and then report on their
lack of engagement in a way that is informative. You know.
It Just Tucker Carlson does his interview. He doesn't get
out of hand angry or anything like he usually does.
And he doesn't laugh in this guy's face because he

(01:25:18):
knows that he only does that to liberals. He's actually
pretty kind, you know, compared to his usual laughing fits
he goes off on. He's actually pretty professional with Kevin O'Leary.
But this is stuff that could be done by anybody.
I mean, it's not biased to ask those questions. It
just makes it so those people will never come back

(01:25:38):
on your program again. But then you can use that
to be a news item. I mean that's a huge
news item.

Speaker 8 (01:25:45):
Yeah, it gets a lot of traction on Instagram. So
O'Leary's plans called for the development of facilities on forty
thousand acres in western or in northern Utah.

Speaker 1 (01:25:58):
Yeah, forty thousand acres. Forty thousand acres.

Speaker 8 (01:26:03):
When built out, it would consume nine gigawatts of energy,
a level far exceeds the usage of the entire state
of Utah, yep. And it would become the largest data
center of its kind in the world, according to developers.
But what I don't understand, and this is where a
failure on part of the media, is what, you know,
why is it so clear to these investors and billionaires

(01:26:26):
that these processing facilities have to be built And these
stories don't convey that at all. I don't compute doesn't
mean anything to me, computing power. I understand they want
to fuel the future of AI processing information, Why does
it require so much, so much energy and so much power,

(01:26:47):
and I you know, if they're going to sell these things,
they have to do a better job of explaining to
journalists like what compute is and why it requires so
much energy?

Speaker 1 (01:26:56):
Right, But they don't have to do anything, that's the thing,
because they just have to have these ovenors in their
pocket because they I mean, you know this, I'm not saying,
but they don't have to explain anything to anybody because
if they had to explain it, they wouldn't exist. There's
no upside to a data center, data center for anybody
except for the company because the company, whoever it is,
Kevin O'Leary, or whether it's Google or whoever's using these things, Nvidia, Apple, whatever,

(01:27:25):
the ones that are building these things, these are just
going to replace workforces. That's what it is. It's like
all the labor of all the people that they're going
to replace require lots and lots of computing. That's what
the basic answer is. The basic answer is, if you
want to replace every job in Utah, Oklahoma, Texas, you're
going to need one big, fat data center to do

(01:27:47):
all the computing that would have been the labor of
the people that used to work at these jobs. So
you're basically replacing huge amounts of and you're just doing
it by I don't exact.

Speaker 8 (01:28:02):
Sounds like it sounds like it should be a utility.

Speaker 1 (01:28:04):
It's cheaper. Yeah, there shouldn't.

Speaker 8 (01:28:06):
Everyone shouldn't be going out building their own power plants.
We should have a cooperative plan for.

Speaker 5 (01:28:12):
The construction of data centers through the government.

Speaker 1 (01:28:14):
Well way through the government. Yes, but there instead moving
toward they're trying. They're what they're hoping to do. Also,
which I've read which makes sense to me, is that
these data centers are going to corrupt the power grid
to the point where they'll be able to say, we
need to privatize power. Look, the public utilities can't handle
what they need to handle, so that these data centers

(01:28:36):
will simultaneously ruin the environment, ruin people's water pressure, jack
up everybody's electricity bills. But then these same oligarchs will
use the argument that we need to privatize the power grid,
and then they can delegate as much power to themselves
as they want, and they'll end up actually being able
to deny power to people long run, because long run,

(01:28:58):
AI data centers are violent people, replacing water hurting livelihood
killing machines. They are the enemy. Data centers are the
enemy and the only reason. And people are getting it
because I don't know if you've watched any of these

(01:29:18):
fucking hearings, they've been able to defeat them in like
New Hampshire some places, I mean, because there's no argument
that these are good. The argument is more like, we
don't care what you have to say. So that's what
happened in Utah is that fucking governor was just like,
we need to pull the trigger on these things. People
just need to understand that these things need to happen.
That's like his argument. That's all there is. He doesn't
explain any of the in the weeds of what a

(01:29:41):
data center is. He just says these things need to happen.
We're gonna make them happen. This is good for our economy,
which then everybody silently or not silently is like that. No,
everyone knows they're not good for your economy. They're good
for the economy of like where everyone dies and five
guys run the world with these data centers is what
they're good for. Centers are nothing but evil. I mean,

(01:30:02):
I'm not saying that that's objectively true. And that's why
Tucker Carlson gets to look like a sensible person saying
some sensible stuff. But the problem is that we don't
have a media that can say those things. So, uh,
data centers.

Speaker 8 (01:30:17):
Are but also data centers exist already. Why are they
building huge forty.

Speaker 1 (01:30:23):
Because of AI Acre one? It's AI.

Speaker 8 (01:30:28):
I think the government should be involved, and then that
would but.

Speaker 1 (01:30:31):
The government is Trump, so there's no I mean, when
we have a proper government, yeah, if we ever get
one again, but right now it's a fucking free for all,
and we might as well lead into the most horrible
story of the week, the most specifically horrible, you know,
out of I mean, data centers should be the top
story forever until they go away. But I mean, if

(01:30:52):
you see the videos of like that, that great organization,
it seems great to me. Perfect Union, the one who
makes all those mini docs that are on YouTube, I
mean on a you're on YouTube too, Those are great,
absolutely great. I don't know who's funding that, but probably
a billionaire. But thank you then, one nice billionaire because

(01:31:12):
Perfect Union has done videos about data centers and what
happens to people who live near them and they have
to like use bottled water. They can't use their water
anymore because of the quality of the water and also
because there isn't any and they don't have anybody to
appeal to.

Speaker 5 (01:31:28):
Well, it reminds me of fracking.

Speaker 1 (01:31:29):
Yeah, and it's like, so, you know, people see that
and they just don't If the governor is like corrupt,
which the governor of every state in this country is
now corrupt and bought, it doesn't matter what the people say.
They can say I have no water pressure all day,
and the governor will just say I don't give a fuck.
And that's what's happening in Utah. I mean the governor
actually actually had to apologize. I don't even know why
he bothered apologizing, but he actually said, like, I don't

(01:31:52):
care what people say. Basically we're doing this. And then
he had to like pull it back and say, well,
I guess I was speaking a little maybe a little
bit aggressively, but we're still doing it. I don't even
know why he apologize. I guess because he wants to
get re elected, is sort of worried that he might not.
I don't know. But anyway, so the Trump administration, have
you heard about this, Like, you know, Trump's I don't know,

(01:32:15):
sued the Irs for ten billion dollars. Oh yeah, and
the Justice Department is considering settling, according to New York Times,
is reported, of course the Justice Department. It's like saying
Trump is considering settling with himself.

Speaker 8 (01:32:28):
Right, I didn't hear anything besides that.

Speaker 5 (01:32:30):
There scared me to here.

Speaker 1 (01:32:31):
Is no Justice Department. So yes, of course the Justice
Department is considering settling with Donald Trump. Since the Justice
Department is run by Eric Trump, Essentially the Department of
Justice is finalizing a deal. I mean, this is the
most disgusting. This makes me so sad. And the Department
of Justice is finalizing a deal to launch, I mean,

(01:32:52):
you're not even gonna believe this, a so called Truth
and Justice Commission and establish a compensation fund of one billion,
seven one hundred and seventy six million, meaning seventeen seventy
six to pay claims made by alleged victims of government
weaponization in exchange for Donald Trump dropping his ongoing lawsuit

(01:33:16):
against the Internal Revenue Service. Sources told ABC News that
the proposed deal, which is likely to face legal hurdles, Yeah,
I'm sure, I'm sure that the Supreme Court will stop it,
has already been criticized by Democrats as a slush fund
for Trump's allies. Arose after months of deliberations between the

(01:33:40):
White House and the Department of Justice officials, who originally
attempted to craft a legal justification for the settlement to
compensate Trump directly, because that's what Departments of Justice do.
They try and they try and construct the legal frameworks
to give the president a bunch of taxpayer money. Oh God, anyway.

(01:34:01):
Advocating a century's old legal principle known as the rule
of necessity, DOJ lawyers have argued that no alternative existed
other than letting the lawsuit proceed with Trump acting as
the plaintiff while being directly in charge of the defendants,
the IRS and the tragedy Treasury. Sources said the plan
was ultimately scuttled, so they had to give up on
their plan to give them ten billion dollars.

Speaker 5 (01:34:25):
Well that's the relief, right, But that's the worst case.

Speaker 1 (01:34:27):
But it's the but instead, I mean, well, this is
even worse in a way. This is insane. So he's
setting up a one point seven seven six billion dollar
compensation fund to give money to the January sixth defendants.

Speaker 5 (01:34:41):
That's what this is, oh to them.

Speaker 1 (01:34:44):
So he's paying the proud boys.

Speaker 7 (01:34:47):
Oh my god.

Speaker 1 (01:34:48):
Sources said the plan was ultimately scuttled in favor of
the one point seven seven six billion dollar compensation fund,
with the n figure being a nod to the nation's founding.
I noticed as the judge overseeing Trump's IRS lawsuit began
to raise issues with Trump suing the very government he leads, okay,
So there was some some judge was like, okay, even

(01:35:09):
by the standards of fascism, this is a bad look.
So he's like, I want to know who pitched the
one point seven seven six thing instead, Steven Miller. Probably
it's like, what if we gave away seventeen hundred and
seventy six million dollars to all the January sixth defendants?
How would that be? And the judge is like, wow,
that sounds a little.

Speaker 3 (01:35:27):
Better, So.

Speaker 1 (01:35:35):
Uh, okay, anyway, this is this is some crazy alternative.
Two billion dollars is so much money, Like one point
seventy seven six billion dollar. I mean, like that's just
so much fucking money. That's just endless money to give

(01:35:56):
it give to to like the officer from Ice who
shot Renee Good for probably you know, he'll sue, he'll
sue for emotional damages and get paid out, right. So yeah,
it's just like, you know, this is just a disgusting
time to be alive in America and people who don't

(01:36:18):
understand this, the Civil Rights Act being destroyed. I mean,
it's just like everything this is, this is fascism, this
is a dictatorship. And we you know, we will we
still think. I think on some level it's just going
to go away with the midterms, and I guess it'll
be interesting to see what happens. But interesting is the
word not not necessarily a good word.

Speaker 8 (01:36:37):
It came to me was a corporate governance with with
him taking all those corporate leaders to China on that visit.
I couldn't wrap my head around that, and it really
just speaks to corporations running America.

Speaker 1 (01:36:53):
Oh yeah, the delegation was just a bunch of business people.

Speaker 8 (01:36:58):
I mean, for what reason to make deals on you know,
American government. Uh, we're paying for that trip. Probably probably not.
They probably paid their own way, but I doubt it.
It's totally inappropriate. I mean it's unprecedented for good reason. Yeah,
it turned a state visit into a big business deal.

Speaker 1 (01:37:18):
And they were all humiliated because fucking China doesn't need
to give a fuck about anybody. So I did see
some clips of them meeting Jijing Ping, and just like
someone commented, these white supremacists don't understand that places like
China don't give a fuck about white people, like they don't.

(01:37:38):
They have a civilization thousands of years older than America.
They look at Americans like a bunch of fucking idiots.
And to see Jijingping just looking at this bunch of criminals,
you should see it. It's like the line they line
up and so he shakes hands with Hegsath, he shakes
hands with Stephen Miller, and the look he gives Stephen Miller,
he looks at him for so long. He stays a

(01:37:59):
long time with Steven Miller, and he just looks at
him like, you little fucking piece of shit. I mean,
they got humiliated on that trip. They made Trump sit
in a chair smaller than Jijingping. Have you seen that picture.
They seriously sabotaged Trump's chair and nobody noticed in time.
So he's like sitting on the kids chair. I mean,
the United States is being made a fool of the

(01:38:20):
only people who don't know are us because we're not
getting it reported on. But that trip was Jijingping. Terrible guy,
but a guy that's running a somewhat orderly corrupt society
while the United States has become a fucking swap meat

(01:38:44):
for like murderers. And so him looking at that crew
of losers that are running our country and seeing that
row of losers and weirdos who look like weirdos, I
mean they look like mugshots from the from like a
you know, they look like when you see those mugshot
compilations from the early nineteenth century, and everyone's got a

(01:39:04):
weird shaped head and a snows that's on wrong. That's
the whole group. It's just the worst people anyway. It's
just incredible to look at I mean, if once again,
it would be very funny to look at, like from
a future perspective when things are back to normal, but
not now.

Speaker 3 (01:39:20):
It's not that much fun.

Speaker 8 (01:39:21):
Well, it's also ironic because you know, Trump has spent
the last forty years railing against China from his perch
in New York City, and then he finally gets there.
The first time he goes there seven years ago, his
staff said he was an embarrassment. He was a fish
out of water, didn't know what he was doing.

Speaker 5 (01:39:42):
This time nine years.

Speaker 8 (01:39:44):
Later, he's, you know, the biggest sellout in the world.

Speaker 1 (01:39:48):
Oh, he looked exhausted. He sat on a chair that
was too small. He like was hunched over. I mean,
Ghijingping looked like.

Speaker 8 (01:39:56):
I mean, the one thing the picture of health for
in his life was you know, fuck China.

Speaker 5 (01:40:01):
Ye totally healing everything.

Speaker 8 (01:40:02):
And now he's come full circle as the con man.

Speaker 5 (01:40:05):
No goes over there too.

Speaker 8 (01:40:07):
You're so right, serve up the business deals.

Speaker 5 (01:40:09):
In twenty twenty eight.

Speaker 1 (01:40:10):
And beg He basically like gijing Ping, he got nothing.
Jijing Ping just like got to look down at these
fools and shake hands with them while everybody in China
laughed and and Trump had to go home and Trump
Trump is useless. And he also still wants Giging Ping
to like him, because that's basically all Trump wants is
to be liked by by desk spots. Because he grew

(01:40:32):
up in fucking Fairfield County, Connecticut, or where we grew up,
where he grew up in night. He didn't grow up
in Fairfield County, grew up in whatever wealthy New York
area where all you want is for the person with
the most money to be your friend. And that's what
he that's what he wants, and Gijingping is not going
to be his friend, and it pisses him off, even
though he claims to when push comes to shove, he
just wants to be friends with the popular kids.

Speaker 5 (01:40:55):
Cold. So I just read it.

Speaker 1 (01:40:58):
I just read, uh, quit your job, soundbath bell.

Speaker 8 (01:41:11):
I just read just now in the time New York
Times that Russia is up next.

Speaker 5 (01:41:14):
They're gonna visit China next. So I mean China.

Speaker 8 (01:41:17):
You know, whether Trump knows it or not just took
over the number one spot.

Speaker 1 (01:41:21):
That's right. He said that America was declining right to
Trump's face, and Trump said, well, of course, yeah, he
means when Biden was president.

Speaker 4 (01:41:32):
For real, that's what Trump really said.

Speaker 1 (01:41:37):
He's like, He's right, America was declining, but now it's
on the way back up. As Trump smeared with orange goop,
slumps in his kid's chair. I mean it's like we
look like shit. I mean, it's like and that it's
worth looking at his like clip of like when he
appraises Stephen Miller because he knows Stephen Miller's a racist.
So he just stares at him because he knows that's

(01:42:00):
Stephen Miller, this weasel from Santa Monica, California, some just
deranged kid who is now like use that racism to
rate rise to the top of American society. He just
looks at him like you fucking little you know. It's
like also like anyway, it's just it's just it's it's
pretty stunn it's pretty stunning, and and it's pretty sad.

Speaker 5 (01:42:24):
So you're gonna read your column.

Speaker 1 (01:42:26):
Oh yeah, I forgot Grid. Yeah, I've had a little
bit of a lot of fun, well, a little bit
of a lot of fun. Just quote Spurgeon Piper. I've
had a little bit of a lot of fun lately
writing these columns. So this is a new one and
it's called came out yesterday. It's called Advice King? Should

(01:42:48):
I Should I go off the grid? Was the question,
Dear Advice King, I would love sorry, I would like
to live off the grid? How do I do this?
What does what does it entail? Sign? Gina and Delaware?
Now this is a real question I got from social media,
but it didn't have a name, so I made it
Gina and Delaware. But if someone's listening who wrote this question,

(01:43:08):
thank you? It's a great question. So I said off
the grid? Eh, sounds good to me. I don't know
what it means, but it sounds very good. I hate grids.
Who wants to live on a grid? Grid? Grid? Grid?
What a horrible word? How we ended up on the grid?
A short play? Salesman pointy goate red outfit holding pitchfork.

(01:43:34):
What if I told you that for the low low
price of your soul, I can get you a great
spot on the grid American?

Speaker 4 (01:43:41):
Hell?

Speaker 1 (01:43:41):
Yes, I love grids. Also, what are they salesman. You
get air conditioning, toothpaste, and a TV. That's the grid.
All you have to do is live and die within
a five square mile radius, except for grid approved vacations
where you are photographed drinking pink liquid from a champagne
near a body of water once a year American. I'll

(01:44:04):
take it the end. If you really want to leave
the grid, you'll have to learn how to grow your
own food. No one wants to do that, so the
most popular way to leave the grid is to be
rich and pretend to leave the grid, but buy all
your food at Trader Joe's. That kind of grid lever
is called a libertarian. The real reason libertarians want to

(01:44:24):
leave the grid is to avoid the irs. I enjoy
listening to them while they try to explain their other
fancier motivations. They say constitutional republic a lot while they gump,
while they gulp Lacroix and check their fan dual account.
I suppose that strictly, speaking off the grid just means
not using public utilities like electricity. But it is my

(01:44:48):
opinion that if you are in a supermarket, you are
on the grid. If your image is currently being captured
by a security camera, you are on the grid, regardless
of how you define leaving the grid, thing is for certain.
It used to be a hell of a lot easier.
These days, the grid follows you. Mass surveillance isn't just

(01:45:08):
on a madman's to do list anymore. It has arrived.
You think that you, your rain barrel, and your stinky
boyfriend Zeke are all alone in the wilderness, until you
realize that the roar of a nearby waterfall is really
the roar of a nearby data center. That one eyed
owl is a flock camera. The snake that just bit

(01:45:31):
Zeke a real snake. Unfortunately, we'd all like to wrap
our belongings in a kerchief, put them on the end
of a stick, and follow the railroad tracks out of town.
But we made this mess, and now we have to
clean it up. It's not enough to lament the loss
of the Voting Rights Act. It needs to be reinstated.

(01:45:53):
Don't be like a libertarian and run away, not just
because it's cowardly, but also because, big picture, there's nowhere
to run. Tech isn't progress, it's violence. Wherever you go,
the water will be contaminated, The AI servers will know
your name, and the drones will know where you are.
We need to fix this shit. We need to stay

(01:46:14):
on the grid and fight and spread the word that
something has gone terribly wrong. We need to act like
grown ups and unplug the goddamn thing. It's hurting our children.
It's turning all of us into libertarians.

Speaker 3 (01:46:30):
Nice. Thanks so.

Speaker 1 (01:46:41):
Libertarians. Man.

Speaker 8 (01:46:47):
I know one thing, it's easier to disrupt society now
that there's so much more surveillance, at least in the
school systems, because I work in the school systems. Now,
someone did something called I don't know, there's some word
for it, where someone makes a phone call and threatens

(01:47:12):
a school district with like, say, some kind of a threat, oh,
like swatting, swatting. Yeah, and the whole day was just
shot the hell parents picked up their kids.

Speaker 5 (01:47:23):
There was no education going on that.

Speaker 1 (01:47:25):
Day at all.

Speaker 8 (01:47:26):
Like thousands of dollars flushed on the toilet because somebody
called use the phone and the threat wasn't real.

Speaker 5 (01:47:37):
So it's sort of a harbinger of what's to come.

Speaker 8 (01:47:41):
Yeah, you know, if you've got you've got eyes, and
people are over sensitive to everything and fearful, and they've
detected something like that. They don't know what it is,
and they shut things down, similar to when you were
getting your health scan and they thought you might have cancer,
you know, when you went in to get your broken shoulder.

Speaker 5 (01:48:00):
Yeah, there's too much information coming in.

Speaker 1 (01:48:03):
It's true, you're right. I never thought about that, because, yeah,
I got that information about my should like they did
an x ray. It was a couple of years ago.
They did an x ray when I broke my shoulder
and they found a spot on my lung, which turned
out to be nothing. But I had to go through
a lot as a result of that, which I'm kind
of grateful for. But there is something to be said
for just like dropping dead, you know, especially if they're

(01:48:30):
gonna make your quality of life so bad. While we're alive,
you start to envy your earlier generations, who you know,
just smoked a ton of cigarettes and keeled over in
the break room. I don't really, you know that, because
in the end it doesn't matter. I mean, when you
pass away, you pass away, and I don't it's certainly

(01:48:51):
righteous to try and stay in the game. But but
it is like, h you know, there is a certain
dignity to not being war read all the time. Uh
and and yeah, and the worry that we're being that's
being imposed on us is just a mind control technique
to make everyone worried so they'll report everything, so the
billionaires can can work on their life extension technology and

(01:49:15):
stuff and and and aren't going to get fucking shot
like that insurance executive. So they're creating a culture of paranoia,
similar to Nazi Germany, where it's like, you know, everybody
is just like basically participating in this psychological control operation
where they're completely forget about what they're alive for and

(01:49:35):
think what they're alive for us to try and track
down immigrants and Jews and things like that. And it's
all in service of these Nazis who are sitting pretty
in some uh Jewish person's former apartment, uh you know, uh,
enjoying the art that they stole from some Jewish art dealer.
You know. Anyway, it's just a yeah, it's it's a

(01:49:57):
culture of like like ring cameras. You know, we we
got along for forever without ring cameras. No one knocks
on our doors. That that's that's threatening. That's a camera
that's supposed to be just guarding your neighborhood. So they
can just like find out license plate.

Speaker 3 (01:50:14):
Numbers and things.

Speaker 1 (01:50:15):
You know, it's just it's just not it's not necessary.

Speaker 5 (01:50:19):
We can't stop technology.

Speaker 8 (01:50:21):
And so that's the the the doubles, uh whatever, that's
some kind of absalom sword or whatever whatever expression that is,
like there's no way.

Speaker 5 (01:50:34):
To stop it.

Speaker 8 (01:50:35):
But you know, obviously nature sort I guess, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:50:41):
Combined with absalom absalom by William Faukman, I like that.
Who cares? We have no time to figure out what
we're saying. It's not important, just like this spurgeon piper. Also,
you know what I'm talking about.

Speaker 8 (01:50:54):
Every step we take forward is a step backwards. But
there's no stopping it, right right exactly.

Speaker 1 (01:51:01):
It's true. It's one hundred percent true. And all we
can do is like try to stop it with podcasts,
which is not probably gonna work. We're trying our best
over here to just defeat data centers with a couple
of coffee and a set of headbones only as one
of your working But we're doing our fucking best. It's

(01:51:25):
all we can do, and we can at least say
when we get to Heaven that we tried, were like,
oh we see you did a podcast here. You see
it was a left wing podcast, so you're going to hell,
but we would like to appreciate your energy.

Speaker 4 (01:51:39):
Imagine if heaven.

Speaker 1 (01:51:41):
Really was for right wing people only.

Speaker 3 (01:51:43):
I mean, it's just such a.

Speaker 9 (01:51:46):
No.

Speaker 8 (01:51:46):
Heaven's gonna be like Whole Foods times one hundred, just
all natural, no tech.

Speaker 1 (01:51:54):
Wow, we should have started the show talking about heaven.
It turns out, as it turns out, that's a fucking
cole Brew heaven right there, Whole Foods where everything's free, right, Yeah,
that's white people Heaven. And all they play is like CCR,

(01:52:15):
I see a bad moon rising on the PA Boomer Heaven. Oh,
it's such a funny concept. Boomer Heaven would be a
good play. You could write a play if just what
Boomer Heaven would be, and all the conversations that happened there,
like could be like a neighborhood association. That's what Boomer

(01:52:36):
Heaven would be, just like constantly being like, I noticed
what's his name hasn't raked his leaves. But nobody's mad.
It's like everybody's happy. Even the person who raked their
leaves is like, didn't make their leaves. It's like that's fair.

Speaker 8 (01:52:51):
I had a cold brew thought earlier that I didn't
say that. It was maybe, you know, humanity, with all
the gene work and all the technology, maybe we could
create a different species that could compete with humans hashtag
gene work, just you know, like neander bring back the
Neanderthal fuck yeah, to stir shit up. Yeah, and just

(01:53:13):
make a new rate for clicks people. Well, no, just
so you could join some people that are less bad,
less stupid than humans.

Speaker 1 (01:53:20):
That's true. We could take it back Neanderthal core, a
whole new movement behaving like Neanderthals on purpose, not like
Spurgeon Piper who can't help it. All right, that's enough.
Oh god, I wish I could go on. That was
I just like that Spurgeon Piper. Poor. I'm being mean
to Spurgeon Piper.

Speaker 7 (01:53:40):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (01:53:40):
But yeah, that is a good idea, bringing back Neanderthals
for just like as just to teach us lessons, right,
because Neanderthals would fully attack a data center. They wouldn't
even have a fucking problem. They wouldn't even wait a minute,
they wouldn't interview anybody. They would just be like attack,
I mean, that is what the energy we need, like

(01:54:03):
you know, and they would see Kevin O'Leary being like, Wow,
if we can't do it there, we're gonna do it
fucking Mississippi. They'd be like attack. It just wouldn't be any.

Speaker 4 (01:54:12):
Question that guy.

Speaker 5 (01:54:15):
And then Kevin O'Leary would be missing.

Speaker 8 (01:54:17):
An arm within THEYD be like that guy's not building
a data center, not if I can find him.

Speaker 1 (01:54:26):
That's what they're trying to protect against. They're trying to
like set up a surveillance system that can protect them
against the Neanderthals. But it never works, never works. Neanderthals
will win in the end. But we actually do need
some Neanderthals in the mix. You're right, and we should
bring him back in our own Colebrew lab. All we
need is some Colbrew and some beakers and some fucking

(01:54:47):
foaming chemicals and some test tubes. But all those things
that are foaming and stuff are just Colbrew. And that's
how we're trying to create it. We're trying to create
Neanderthals just by using caffeine. I don't know. I've given
him a huge amount of caffeine and he's still a
fucking capitalist. Try and giving him more caffeine, Well, he's

(01:55:08):
not feeling very well, doesn't matter. Creating the Danderthals not
easy work. Cole Bruneianderthals. Can we call our listeners that
instead of instead of brewers? Would that offend the listener?

Speaker 3 (01:55:27):
Possibly?

Speaker 1 (01:55:29):
Okay, well we'd have it.

Speaker 5 (01:55:31):
We have an advantage because we'd have thicker skulls.

Speaker 1 (01:55:35):
Do we have We have thicker skulls than the Neanderthals.

Speaker 5 (01:55:38):
No, Neanderthals would be it?

Speaker 1 (01:55:39):
Oh well yeah we are. Okay, we the cold Bruneanderthals.

Speaker 7 (01:55:43):
I got it.

Speaker 1 (01:55:43):
Okay, then we sell Oh my god, imagine we sold
shirts that say cold Bruneanderthals on our fucking website. Holy fuck.
No one would wear those, but it would rule over
the people who did.

Speaker 5 (01:55:55):
We could ran data centers.

Speaker 4 (01:55:57):
Oh my god, that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 8 (01:55:59):
Man.

Speaker 1 (01:56:00):
If we had hats that said col Bru Neanderthal on them,
I mean that would be and we got people to
wear them, that would frighten these data center people. Ned heads,
what's that?

Speaker 5 (01:56:11):
Oh?

Speaker 7 (01:56:11):
Ned?

Speaker 1 (01:56:12):
Ned? Yeah, well that's close enough. It doesn't matter. It
doesn't Matteranderthals don't give a fuck.

Speaker 4 (01:56:19):
What do you mean, Ned? Shut the fuck up?

Speaker 1 (01:56:21):
You want to get punched?

Speaker 4 (01:56:23):
Okay, okay, yeah, you want to get clubbed.

Speaker 1 (01:56:29):
Oh my god, that's such a funny. God damn, if
we can get people that will be colbranals, we would
fucking rule the earth. Okay, well, Uh, I got a
couple of new Patreon members. I gotta thank uh Scott Murray,
thank you so much for joining the patrire that colbur
got me like Patreon, and uh, Sarah, I think that's

Speaker 5 (01:57:14):
Song of the Week.

Speaker 1 (01:57:15):
Nathan Hogue. I always wanted to mention. Nathan Hog got
in touch with me about writing. I don't I don't
know if I'm supposed to say his last name, but
he did email me. You can email me at Best
of Bred at gmail dot com. He wanted some help
with writing, and I am going to get back to him.
I sort of have been slacky on my idea of
punch ups, but I am willing to do it.

Speaker 3 (01:57:36):
I just get a.

Speaker 1 (01:57:37):
Little bit overwhelmed at times and forget what I'm trying
to do. I know it's dumb. I should be doing
that consistently, but Nathan, I'll get in touch with you.
And I also got a nice message on my band
camp which I have not responded to because I'm trying
to figure out how to return an email on band
camp in a way that makes any sense. But I
will respond to these things, and you can get in

(01:57:58):
touch with me through my band camp or through just
Best of Bread at gmail dot com. And last thing
I wanted to talk about was important and fun and
I hope I'll have to have this podcast up fast
if it if it's gonna matter. But on Monday, I'm

(01:58:22):
going to be on the Vintage Annals archive and podcasts.
So the Vintage Annals podcast talking about the new show,
the new movie, uh, Chris crofton Nashville Famous SETH Pomeroy's
movie documentary called Chris crofton Nashville Famous. It's Monday at
four pm and you can get there through uh, I

(01:58:45):
don't know, look up Vintage Annal's archive and podcast. They
have a big he has a big following. This guy
his name is Scott and oh no, his name is Rich.

Speaker 3 (01:58:55):
Sorry.

Speaker 1 (01:58:56):
Uh, the guy who runs this, and I'm and he
has great taste and artists and stuff, and I'm very
flattered and excited to be part of it. So there's
gonna be a live zoom chat with me at four
pm Eastern time one pm Pacific. And I don't know
if I think it's he says it's open to Patreon members,
so I guess you have to be a Patreon member

(01:59:16):
of his to be there, but I guess you can
reach out to him, and if you can't, I think
eventually that the the regular maybe the recording of it
will be up for like somehow you'll be able to
hear it. But anyway, you can also join this guy's Patreon.
But anyway, I'm going to do a live chat with

(01:59:39):
him on Monday.

Speaker 3 (01:59:40):
So that's exciting.

Speaker 1 (01:59:45):
And that's it. Song of the Week. I was thinking,
I was listening to some John Denver last night. Oh
and I wanted to recommend evil Men the podcast Evil
Men Chris Locks podcast. It's him and a couple of
friends from Canada, from Toronto, and evil Men is the
name of the show. And I've just been really digging it.

(02:00:07):
It's like I don't really get into podcasts that much.
With like funny people on them. You know, I've talked
about that, like I don't like really listening to like
bros like laugh it up about stuff, but they are
very fucking funny, So I've changed my policy for these bros.
No offense, Chris, but yeah, I love it. It's called
Evil Men, and they have like an evil Man each

(02:00:28):
time that they talk about like but they also have
like a twenty minute segment that's just like our podcast
where they just all talk about random stuff and it's
really funny. So Evil Men go listen to it. I've
been listening to like tons of their episodes, like I'm
really digging it, so, you know, kind people saying silly stuff,
my favorite stuff cool And I guess song wise, did

(02:00:51):
you have anything? Did you have a song in mind?
I mean I was thinking maybe. I don't know. I'm
not crazy about the other songs on Alvis Harding's new record,
but I haven't listened to them enough, but the lyrics
kind of drive me insane.

Speaker 8 (02:01:09):
They're also well, you wanted to do dire Straits the
other day?

Speaker 1 (02:01:13):
I did Dire Straits denied?

Speaker 5 (02:01:15):
Did I not do it? No?

Speaker 9 (02:01:16):
You did?

Speaker 5 (02:01:16):
You did Country Living by You?

Speaker 1 (02:01:18):
Oh? Okay, well, we'll do a song off Making Movies.
Then I've been listening to tons, probably the one I
mentioned that day, the song skate Away by Dire Straits
off the album Making Movies, and I recommend the whole record,
except for Less Boys, which is the last song on
the record, which is just such a stupid ass song,

(02:01:41):
I guess, basically his impressions of a gay bar in
nineteen eighty, which is just just sounds so bad even
at the even at the time, I'm sure, but everything
else on it is great.

Speaker 5 (02:01:52):
And Chris, I'm looking up evil men. Chris Locke is
that comedian you did an interview with.

Speaker 1 (02:01:56):
Yeah, that's so I'm mentioning. Yeah, he was on Cold
Brew Conversations, Chris Locke, And I'm such a fan that
it actually was like someone said, you know, I just
I think I told it on another party. I said
it on another of our podcast, just that somebody listening
to it said, oh, that guy, you talked to Chris
Locke the way I sound when I talk to you,
like he sounded. He sounded like a fan, you know,

(02:02:16):
But I am. I'm a fan of Chris Locke. I
saw him years ago on a show with Josh Fatum
and Johnny. He was on kiss My Ass, that show
that I used to play music for in La at
the satellite called kiss My Ass with Dick Or Troy
and Josh Fatum, and he was a guest on there.
He did stand up and I was like immediately like
just loved what he did. And evil men is is

(02:02:40):
actually you know, it's him getting to riff. It's not
his proper stand up h and uh, I love hearing
him riff. You know, I like the stand up and
the riffing. But this is a anyway you get the idea.
So this song it's called skate Away off of Making
Movies by Dire Straits. And thanks for listening. Please support
