some Opinions i've found all Over twitter And facebook and
you name, it and we're breaking them down and we're
gonna let you know if they're a good take a bad.
Take i'm looking for that out. There wrong there is
if it's gonna be a good take or a bad.
Take the first one here without further. Ado the first
(01:15):
one comes From nicki On twitter At Nicki, mora who,
is according to her, bio serving looks and. Justice this
is a two part good, take bad. Take it's the
first one in the history a good take bad. Take
and WHEN i click, okay never, mind we're not Gonna
(01:35):
we're not gonna give any more free. Promos so first
we're gonna read her, post followed by a response to
it one's, good one's. Bad her. Post of course hers
is the bad take because she's the, woman but it
says her post, says men hit the gym after a
breakup thinking their body is the. Issue, bro you have
the emotional intelligence and maturity of a. Doorknob go to.
(01:59):
Therapy that's what we call a bad. Take men don't
hit the gym after a break as a. Man. Wrong
men don't hit the gym after a breakup because we're
insecure about how our bodies. Look in ninety nine percent of,
occasions men hit the gym after a breakup or a
(02:21):
divorce or for the same reason that women dye their
hair or cut it or whatever the case may. Be
because it's something that you can. Control it's a way
for you to express yourself in a manner that's not permanently.
Destructive and in the case of going to the, gym
(02:42):
it's actually good for you in many. Cases but men
go to the gym because it's a, productive a productive
way to get our frustrations. Out that's why we do.
It it's a way to build discipline and self control
and work your demons out without actually hurting. Anybody and
(03:08):
in my, opinion AND i can only share my personal,
experience going to the gym is a thousand times better than.
Therapy if more people swapped therapy AND SSRIs for going
to the, gym eating red, meat and going to, church
eighty percent of the mental illness in this country would disappear.
(03:29):
Overnight now that was the bad. Take here's the response to,
it coming from a guy whose NAME i can't. PRONOUNCE
i think he's In. India, yeah he, says men hit
the gym after a breakup because pain is. Fuel therapy
won't fix. Betrayal lifting iron. Does don't talk to me
about intelligence when you ghosted a loyal man and then
(03:52):
called it. HEALING a man builds muscle not to impress,
you but to armour up for a world that laughs
at his, pain mocks his, silence and praise for his.
Downfall you want him to cry on a, couch he
chose to bleed in silence under two hundred pounds of.
Steel because while you're ranting, online he's out there becoming
the version you'll never deserve. Again and that sweetheart is. Therapy,
(04:13):
whoo my, goodness. Poetic that's a good. Take by the,
way in case you guys needed any any indication as
to which WAY i felt about that. One that's a
that's a fire take right. THERE i, mean that's really
what it. IS i, MEAN i started hitting the gym
(04:34):
pretty hard after i'd been with my wife for, years you,
know and she she didn't care either. WAY i look
much better now THAN i did when we first started,
dating BUT i wasn't going to the gym for. Her
that's what women don't. Understand. Now, yes there are some
really vain men that'll go out there and they'll go
to the gym and try to look, better sticking pick up.
(04:56):
Chicks whatever the overwhelming majority of men were not going
to the. Gym for, women whether we're, married whether we're
in a, relationship whether we're newly, single we're not going
to the gym and building. Muscle for, women it is
a method of self control for. Us it is a
form of meditation that just so happens to make us
(05:19):
look hot like. That that's literally all there is to.
It If i'm not going to the gym at least
four times a, Week i'm all out of. Whack i'm
not doing the show in the timely manner THAT i
need to. Be i'm running behind on everything else in my.
Life it is a. Matter going to the gym sets
the baseline for me that gets me on track during
(05:41):
the rest of the week because it establishes that level of.
Discipline i'm already, Up i'm already moving my. BODY i
might as well do my other. Shit and it just
really gives you that kicking. Ask there's also the fact
that you owe it men who are married to your
spouse and to your children or future, children to be
(06:03):
the best version of you that you can, be and
that includes physical. Fitness do you want your kids to
be eight years old with this fat fuck for a
dad that sits. Around it sits around on the couch
drinking beer and playing video games and watching. Football not
that there's anything wrong with those three, things but when
those three things become your, personality that's when they're BECAUSE
(06:26):
i do all three of those. Things but when those
three things become what define, you that's when it becomes an.
Issue so you shouldn't go to the gym for. Women
you should do it for yourself because you will and
it will ultimately make you a better person to be.
Around so that second, one it's a good. Take all,
Right let's go to the next one. HERE i found
(06:48):
this one to be appropriate FROM Qe infinity At. STEALTH
qe four on X twitter is a healthcare sales investor
and son of a credit Trader macro and bond thoughts
and parody fun not investment, advice is what it. Says
so here's what he. Said he shares an image or excuse,
me a TikTok to tic, tac a video that says
(07:10):
things have gone from bad to worse In Las. Vegas
june room revenue is down nineteen, Percent july down twenty
percent so, Far international travel down thirteen. Percent so this
guy Says vegas is. Collapsing they just lost their, way too,
expensive insane charges on. Everything i'll only go there if
(07:30):
work has a meeting. THERE i don't know If i'm.
GONNA i think this is a good. TAKE i think
this is a good. TAKE i think it needs context and, nuance,
though because that's the reality. Is people are Blaming Donald
trump for, it for Why vegas is losing, money and
they're blaming the, tariffs and it's Not trump's, fault just
(07:51):
the same way when they were losing revenue a couple
years ago and everybody was Blaming. Biden it Wasn't biden's.
Fault it has nothing to do with who the president.
Is the reality Is vegas has got a serious problem
that's only getting. Worse and that problem was created by
the fact that they've decided to make everything eighty three.
Dollars everything's expensive over, There like, like it's Not Donald
(08:18):
trump that's killed it's not any president that's Killing Las.
Vegas it's resort fees and fifteen dollars corps. Lights that's
what's Killing vegas right. NOW i remember one time we
were down there a couple of years, ago and my
friend wanted some hot wings thirty five dollars for a
ten piece wings thirty five DOLLARS i got the last
(08:40):
TIME i was down, THERE i went and got breakfast
before the thing we were doing that the event THAT
i was there, FOR i went down and got breakfast
in the. CASINO i got myself a, coffee A belgian,
waffle some, bacon and you know WHAT i wanted to.
GO i wanted to have a little fun with. It
because when In, ROME i got myself a, mimosa and
(09:00):
that was sixty five dollars for one. Person my wife
AND i could sit down here and out the door
with tax and, tip that wouldn't be sixty five. Dollars
that was sixty five. Dollars so that's what's Killing. Vegas
and people will point to capitalism and all these other.
Things it's not, capitalism it's crony. Capitalism it's. Corporatism when
the corporations moved in and bought these politicians off In
(09:22):
Las vegas and all these extra regulations came, in that's
what caused the price. Spike the, guys because When vegas
was at its, peak that was also, capitalism but it
wasn't what you're seeing right now that was pure. Capitalism
that was when this group called the mob ran everything
when everything was much, cheaper and it wasn't a total
(09:43):
corporate health. Gap it's not a Total i'll be there
in a couple of. Weeks it's not a total corporate health.
Gap the other problem That vegas has right, now besides
the fact that everything's, expensive is The internet has beaten
them at their own. Game it took The internet a
little bit longer to catch up With Las vegas due
to some rules and regulations than it did for them
to start hurting retailers Like walmart And target in different
(10:04):
malls With amazon and other eBay places like. That but
it's finally. Happening more and more states are legalizing not
just sports, betting but sports betting. Online and that's a
whole other set of problems that that's causing right, there
with kids gaining these addictions in their early twenties that
they never would have had to deal, with just not
even a decade. Ago but the fact that you can
(10:26):
pull your phone, up press a couple buttons and make
a bet means you no longer have to go To vegas.
Anymore so you don't have and that's Primarily the whole
reason a lot of that's the reason a lot of
people go down there is sports. Gambling sports. Gambling so
when they're starting to lose, that they're gonna have to.
(10:48):
Reevaluate that's all there is to. It the leadership needs
to shake something. Up you need to loosen some of the.
Regulations the prices have to, drop and they will, drop
because that's how free market capitalism. Works when things cost
too much money and people stop spending their money, there
it's some simple supply and, demand they, go oh, shit
we have to, correct and if they don't, correct they
go out of, business and someone who's willing to correct
(11:10):
takes their. Place that's how it. Works the other problem
they're running into is the boomers are dying out Now.
MILLENNIALS i believe someone told me. This don't quote me on,
it all, RIGHT i have actually become the number one
generation to Visit. Vegas the problem, is you at one
point had the boomers and millennials. Going now you're gonna
(11:32):
be anterior expecting the millennials to carry it on their.
Own that's just not going to. Happen and if you
haven't noticed Gen, z those, awkward little autistic fucks really
aren't the uh really aren't the party in. Type they don't,
drink they don't go, out and if they do, gamble
it's on their. Phone they're doing The Robin hood apps
(11:54):
and you, know The DraftKings and all that. Crap they're
not gonna go To Las. Vegas they don't want to
leave their. Bedrooms why on earth would The zoomers go
To Las vegas to. Gamble there's no reason they've, Had
they've grown up with their whole lives on this thing right.
Here why on earth would The zoomers go To Las
vegas to gamble when they can do that on their.
Phone so that's what's Killing. VEGAS i Think Quey infinity
(12:18):
has a good. Take that's two out of three have
been good. Takes that's a rarity. Here that's a rarity.
Here our next one comes from our, favorite our favorite,
YouTuber none other than The Fantastic forehead her, Self Miss Hannah.
(12:38):
Cox so this was in response to The Cold play
astronomer Hr lady affair. Scandal somebody, said if It's Hannah,
cox probably already take a guess what type of take
this is gonna? Be? Said the story, Is someone, said
the story is unremarkable accept in how it managed to
(13:00):
combine almost everything that's socially acceptable to hate. Brilliantly hr, coldplay,
cheaters CEOs and. Millionaires head Of cox, replies you've forgot
it also included boss, babes trad, wives and the fact
that high powered men consistently choose age appropriate boss babes
counter to All manisphere. Narratives the girl's gonna overdose on
(13:25):
copium right, now, Right so the, pinnacle the, peak the
tippy top is good as it. Gets for a quote
unquote boss babe, is according To, hannah is being a
sneaky link for a rich. Guy that's. IT i don't
think that's really the flex she thinks it is right, There,
(13:47):
well high powered men consistently have affairs with boss. Babes
we're just home wrecking. DEMONS i don't think that's really
something you want to brag about. There, so, Oh hannah
as usual is. WRONG i don't think she's capable of
(14:08):
HAVING i think she's allergic to good. Takes by the,
way we got one more here and then we're getting.
Out this is from a redditor whose name has been blotted.
OUT i didn't do. That somebody else. Did this is
from somebody On reddit who says the Right winger The
(14:29):
republican is a creature of lies and, deceit as they
are incapable of acting in anything but bad. Faith we
see these propaganda attempts as part of their war against our.
Democracy we now live in a binary, situation the threat
to our democracy in our lives the Right winger marches
(14:50):
for a fascist end of the, country and those that
disagree with this. Evil the Right winger has shown that
they are, unrepentant, unapologetic and unashamed to be the enemy
of our democracy and our. Lives their lives will never,
end and neither will their lust for greed and. Cruelty
time to figure out if you stand for or against this?
(15:14):
Evil Oh, man it's carribl Oh. Man, WELL i think
it goes without saying that this one is a bad.
Wrong this isn't even about whether it's a good take
or a bad. Take it's a horrendous. Take because you
blanket half the country as these evil. Fascists you could
tell this is someone who doesn't get. Outside and this
is a big problem with what's going on in social,
(15:36):
media as this increasing amount of group polarization where people
continue to dehumanize the other. Side and you see it
on the, right but you don't see it near to
the degree on the right that you do on the.
Left the left has put on a masterclass in dehumanizing
the other. Side and that's the. Problem when you tell
everyone that every single Candidate's, hitler Every Republican's, hitler starting
(15:59):
with mitt that's going to create one of two things
with your base. Right that's going to create either the
first type of person who sees it for the bullshit
it is and it's bull you cried wolf, syndrome and
they disengage from, politics they become more, moderate or they
even drift over to the other side for a little.
Bit or that's going to create a totally unhinged lunatic
like this that falls for every piece of propaganda you
(16:20):
sell them hook light and. SINKER i, mean if you
replace the word right, Winger, republican conservative or whatever they're With,
jew that would sound right out A Nazi germany. PROPAGANDA i,
mean this is like it literally reads Like hitler wrote.
This let me read it, again of course. Not but
The jew is a creature of lies and deceit as
(16:41):
they're incapable of acting in anything but bad. Faith we
see these propaganda attempts as part of their war against
as part of The jew's war against our. Democracy we
now live in a binary, situation the threat to our
democracy in our lives The jew marches for a fascist
enter the, country and those that disagree with this evil
The jews shown that they're unrepentant on apology and unashamed
to be the enemy of our democracy and our. Lives
(17:03):
their lives will never end and neither whether or less
for creed and. Cruelty time to greed and, cruelty not
creed the. Band time to figure out if you stand
for against his. EVIL i MEAN i switched like three words,
there and it Was nazi. Propaganda Now i'm not comparing
being A republican to being A, Jew i'm comparing the
dehumanization tactics because they've clearly with the level of propaganda they've,
(17:27):
used comparing people who didn't get vaccinated to rats and
things like. That the way they've dehumanized their opponents is
straight out Of Nazi. Germany and this is a textbook
example right. Here it's very very disturbing. Rhetoric, again LIKE i,
said this is someone who obviously doesn't get out a.
Lot but that's WHAT i was telling you after The
No kings march is they've catered to this lunatic fringe
(17:49):
for far too, long to the point that it's taken
over their, party and out of nowhere they've stolen it from.
Them it's a whole bunch of crazy people that run
The Democrat. Party now they drove off not all what
many of the rational folks that were in. It those
people either checked out of politics, altogether they went, independent, somewhat,
republican third, party whatever the case may. Be but they
(18:10):
drove many of them. Away that's and you're seeing lunatics
like this take. Over you're seeing people that think a
jeans ad is A nazi racist dog. Whistle isn't it
crazy how they're the only ones that ever hear the dog?
Whistle what does that say about? Them you get people
that walk up to me unprovoked WHEN i haven't said
a word to them and tell me that My Saint
patrick pendant and crucifix necklace Is nazi. Shit to quote that,
(18:34):
Guy he's lucky he caught me when he did and
not five years, ago or it would have been. Confrontational
but this is the shit that happens when you do.
This this is the shit that happens is you get
this dehumanization of the other. Side and ALL i had
to do was switch the words right winger And republican
(18:55):
with jew AND i sounded like it was coming out of.
Mind comp that's how to. Pikable this shit's Getting that's
been our. Show so we had two good takes in
three bad. Takes you got to hear me talk, though
so that was like thirty minutes a good. Takes it's
always a good take When i'm talking, right twenty, minutes
whatever the case might, be twenty minutes a good. Takes
it's always a good take When i'm. Talking In, september
(19:16):
the midweek check in is gonna go, AWAY i don't
know how, long at least, temporarily Because i'm gonna start
recording For crooks And books. AGAIN i get paid for
