The Big One Is Coming: 1,000 Years of Pressure Building Beneath California
The Big One isn’t a movie. It’s a certainty.
Beneath California’s Cajon Pass, where millions of drivers travel every year without a second thought, sits one of the most dangerous geological locations in North America: the meeting point of major sections of the San Andreas Fault.
Scientists say enormous pressure has been building there for centuries—possibly over 1,000 years. That doesn’t mean a devastating earthquake will strike today. But it does mean the energy is there, waiting to be released.
And California isn’t the only concern.
Off the Pacific Northwest coast lies the Cascadia Subduction Zone, capable of producing a massive earthquake and tsunami that could impact everything from Northern California to Washington State. Experts warn that when it eventually ruptures, the consequences could be catastrophic.
So why do we continue building homes, businesses, and entire cities as if these disasters are never going to happen?
How prepared are California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, and the rest of the West Coast?
And if the ground started shaking tomorrow, would you be ready?
Join Karel as he examines the science, the risks, the politics, and the uncomfortable reality that some of the largest natural disasters in American history are not a question of if—but when.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Old time is here. No time to fear. Correll is
so near because show time is here. So on with
the show.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Let's give it a go. Carell is the one that
you need to know.
Speaker 3 (00:15):
Now.
Speaker 4 (00:16):
It's show side.
Speaker 5 (00:29):
Should bars have TSA style facial scanners for security? Not sure,
but I'm gonna tell you. Also the deal that isn't
and the big one is coming Pluster's brew haha. Here
as you can hear, I'll tell you what all that's about, too.
It is the Carell Show. I am Correl, so very
(00:52):
glad you are joining me. One of those things. Been
waiting all morning for someone to arrive, and they arrive
right as I go on air. The moment we go
on air, they arrive at the door. So you hear
ember out there carrying on. But just know that it
means my house is about to get cleaned. The expenditure,
the extravagance I give myself once a month. Do you
(01:14):
give yourself something once a month that you probably shouldn't,
that you know you can't afford or you can't really do,
but you do it anyway because you figure life is
short and what the hell for me? It's my housekeeper
once a month. I would have them every week if
I could afford it. But once a month she comes,
Zuma comes and helps me because I am older and disabled,
(01:34):
and you know what, I need help. All right, We
got a lot to talk about today. Speaking of needing help,
I think we all need help. The country needs help.
We've got an out of control madman president who spent
the better part of the morning this morning, from four
to twenty eight, three o'clock in the morning, four o'clock
in the morning, five o'clock rage tweeting. And that's because
(01:58):
even his conservative supporters in the media, Fox News included,
have all said the Iran deal is not a deal,
it's a surrender. Everybody has said that now The Guardian,
the Irish Times, the Fox News, MSN, you know, ms NOW, CNN,
every journalist, the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times,
(02:20):
they have all pointed out this isn't a great deal
for the United States. That before the war, the Strait
of Hornmouth was open, Iran was being crippled by sanctions.
Thirteen Americans that are now dead were alive, and five
thousand or more Iranians that were you know, alive were
(02:42):
still alive. And Marco Rubio has called it a foreign
policy blunder and or something like that. He said it
was not a good thing, and that Trump was probably
listening to bad advice that sort of stuff. There's nothing
we can do about it. And by the way, it's
(03:02):
it does nothing about their nuclear capabilities. That's been tabled
for sixty days. And now they have a bargaining chip
that they know is a winner, which is the Strait
of Hormouth. They know that they can, in fact, threaten
the world's economy with that stretch of waterway and get
(03:23):
what they want, you know, hold us by the Gonads.
And so it is not a good deal. And oh, Sandy,
you've been getting a professional massage once a month since
the beginning of the year. Good for you. Good for
you in seventy eighty bucks. You know who cares? I've
really gotten that way, you know. I know I should
talk about this deal with iron I know I should.
(03:44):
But it's not a deal. It's surrender. But you know,
on my mind are so many things this morning. And
that's why I'm not Stephanie Miller, I'm not David Pacman.
I'm not And maybe that's why I'm not making their money.
Maybe y'all don't want what I'm selling. But you know,
like what's on my mind this morning is quality of life,
(04:05):
you know, quality of life and happiness. I've noticed Ember
is going under the chair more, and going under the
buffet more, and going under the bathroom sync more. And
I'm like, why is she hiding? Well? Why does she
seem unhappy? And I thought, A, she hates the summer,
(04:25):
and b I act unhappy And look, I'm not. I
make enough money to pay my bills. I have a
good credit score, I have a podcast, albeit small, you know.
And this morning I woke up all mad that I
wasn't at the first the Culturista Awards, that I'm not
getting a Culturista award that, you know. I woke up
(04:46):
angry that I'm not a part of this big gay
thing that goes on. And I'm like, well, you don't
put yourself out there. You don't, you know, solicit it.
Yesterday my friend David told me to send three text
to people that could help me. So I did. And
what do you know, they're gonna help me. I've got
a person putting in a good word at Palm Springs
(05:07):
Pride for me. I've got I emailed the Razrum or
the Hotel Nico and said, let's just pick a date.
If people show up, they show up. If they don't,
they don't. You know, so instead of lying around feeling
bad because quality of life and that goes to your
monthly indulgence, me having the maid come Sandy getting a massage.
(05:30):
You know, we've got to have these indulgences because nowadays
we're just living check to check where the future does
not look bright to us, and it can really just
make a dark cloud live over your head, live over
your house, because there certainly is a dark cloud over
the United States. No one is happy.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
If you know, visiting really Corell dot com daily, you're
missing out. Get the podcast videos and the blug including
recipes at really correll dot com.
Speaker 6 (05:59):
That's really k A R e l dot com.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Show Time is here. No time to fear.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Corell is so near because showtime is here.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
So on with the show. Let's give it a go.
Carell is the one that you need to know.
Speaker 5 (06:19):
But you know, one is happy. Maga is not happy.
They're still disgruntled. Republicans aren't happy, Democrats aren't happy. The
general population's not happy. No one is really happy today
except Nicks fans in New York. And that's about it.
You know, joy has been robbed from America by Donald Trump.
I was watching a show last night called night Watch
(06:41):
night Watch Nation, and when they encounter someone who's altered,
they ask them things like, you know, what's the day
of the week, and who's the president? And this they
asked this black guy do and this was this was
back in Trump's first term, and they asked this guy,
we'll do you what day is it? And he said
thirsty And they said, do you know the president is?
He goes. I wish I didn't, and we automatically, I
(07:02):
knew I didn't even have to look at the time
zone or what time this was filmed in because I
knew who we meant. We have had our joy, what
little joy we had taken from us. And now, you know,
I see things happening amongst people that I just I
(07:23):
don't understand, and I shake my head. We're going to
talk about this tomorrow on this Gay Week with Scott.
But in the gay community now, young gays, they don't
understand pride, they don't get it, they don't understand what
it's for. They see it as a commodity and not
a protest or a movement, and many of them now
(07:44):
don't want to be associated with trans rights, with queer rights.
They want to just like gay men are like young
gay men. They're like, Oh, I'm not those things. I'm
not a lesbian, I'm not this. And they don't understand
the reason that we all banded together. Why lesbians, gay men,
(08:05):
trans people, why we all banded together. Because unless you're
a voting block, unless you're an economic block, no one cares.
You can't get anything done. So gay men and lesbians
bended together. So and I'm gonna go into this again
tomorrow so we can have more political cloud. And yes,
(08:28):
we band together with trans and with the queer community.
They're all marginalized and on their own, there's not enough voices.
But when they come together, when it's LGBTQIA, when they
all come together, they're a block. There's larger voices, and
all anyone wants to be is heard. And so we're
(08:54):
not being heard. You and I. Our issues are not
being addressed, not by Democrats, not by Republicans. Nobody is
addressing what we care about climate change, We care about that,
we care that this cold blob might stop the Atlantic
ocean stream and change the weather across the globe. We
(09:16):
care about that. We care about equal rights for men,
for women, for gays, for straights, for immigrants, for whomever.
We care about immigrants and how they're treated. We care
about health care for ourselves and for other Americans and
for our family. We care about access to that healthcare.
(09:37):
We care about cost. Last night on night watch Nation
that I was watching, three people refused the ambulance ride
that they clearly needed. They said they would take a
taxi because they didn't have the thousand dollars for the
ambulance ride. No one in a time of distress should
be forced to call a cab because they can't afford
(09:59):
the air ambulance. That only happens in this country. So
we care about that. We don't want them to have
to make that choice. We care about them. But no
one cares about what we care about right now, because
no one is decent these days. Everybody is angry, everybody
(10:23):
is mad at each other. No one can say anything
nice to anybody on social media. I saw someone today
on social media say his name is Destiny. He's a
liberal and he has a channel, and he says, you know,
my friends, when I'm in the middle of a controversy,
will say we support you, or I'll get a text
and says support you, and he says, screw that. Why
aren't you on Twitter or TikTok or Instagram defending me
(10:46):
in the comments? Why aren't you there supporting my opinion?
I ask myself the same thing about you, guys. I
know how many people watch and listen to the show.
Why do you let people go on TikTok and tear
me apart in the comments? Why do you not come
to my defense? Why on Instagram do you let them
(11:07):
say horrible things under my post without coming to my defense?
Why do you just let that happen? I don't know.
I don't get it. I don't understand. Why do liberals
and other gays let MAGA attack me so loudly and
not do anything about it, not post a comment, not
(11:28):
tell them they're at nothing nothing. It's just all negative.
No one supports anybody these days, truly supports them. You
guys support me through Patreon, but only seventy eight of you,
which without you, there'd be no show. I would stop
the show. I'd have to stop the show. I'd have
(11:49):
to find something else. To do to replace that money.
And so we are in this really strange time where
our happiness is not considered. It's like way down on
the list of priorities. But when do you plan? When
do we all plan on being happy? I am sixty three,
(12:10):
I'm going to be sixty four this year, Madonna sixty eight?
When do we all plan on being happy when we're seventy,
when we're eighty, when we're dead. If we're not living
the best life we can today this day, then we're
never living it. Then we're not going to live it.
And Trump has robbed our quality of life. He has
(12:36):
made perks like a maid or a massage, just so
you feel guilty doing it. Shouldn't feel guilty doing nice
things for yourself, but we do because we know that
gas prices are uncertain, that grocery prices are uncertain. You know.
I read an article at USA today that says Americans
(12:56):
can't find a home, and it was a survey of
Americans about home ownership, buying a home, etc. People don't
want to buy houses right now. Home sales are plummeting,
and people don't want to buy them because they're not
certain about the future. They don't know if the economy
is going to hold or go bust. They don't know.
(13:19):
If my neighbor paid two seventy for his condo, they're
already down to two thirty. He's already lost forty grand.
No one wants to move into a house and immediately
lose money. And people are afraid if they buy a
house right now that in six months because of the
uncertain economy, they will already have lost money. So they're
not buying houses. So real estate brokers are struggling. People
(13:39):
in the real estate industry, of all escrow offices, transaction coordinators,
they're all struggling because people don't want to buy houses,
and people like me who own a house that may
want to sell it and buy something else. We're having
to rethink that and rethink our goals and rethink about
(13:59):
where we're going to live because sell our house. Selling
a house right now is not an easy thing to do.
The apartment downstairs for me has been for sale for
four months. When I bought this unit, people lined up
lined up on day one for an open house. When
I sold my house in Long Beach, she had an
(14:19):
open house at nine o'clock. By nine to ten, we
had four offers. Now houses sit on the market for months.
They decreased the price of them. And the article in
USA today says that is a direct byproduct of our
fear of the future. People are not wanting to make
(14:39):
big investments because they truly and Trump's out there saying,
but the stock market's at an all time high. Only
forty six or fifty one percent of you have four
oh one case most of you, forty nine percent of you,
half of you are not invested in the stock market.
When it comes to outside of four to one, how
(15:00):
many people own stocks, that's only twenty six percent. So
seventy four percent of you outside of your four oh
one k don't own any stocks. So when they tout
the stock market is doing so great and we're supposed
to feel good about that, I wonder why most of
us don't own stocks at least not we're not millionaires.
We don't own so much that we have a millionaire
(15:23):
and a millionaire. And so there is this cloud that
MAGA and Donald Trump have brought, and it keeps raining.
We keep waiting for a break in the rain and
some sunshine, and then he starts an unjusting, illegal war
that's going to cost US three hundred billion dollars. That
(15:46):
is a slush fund. Everyone's calling it that Iran will
have better infrastructure than New York or Los Angeles or
San Francisco. And all they had to do was win
a war against the United States. Does that give you happiness?
Do you feel good today? You know? On v Day
(16:07):
when we won World War two, they marched in the streets,
there was tick or tape parades. People kissed each other
in public. When we finally pulled out of Afghanistan. Families
were happy when Desert Storm was over. People were happy
when Vietnam finally ended. A generation was happy. He just
(16:29):
ended this war. And no one is happy except the Iranians.
There's no parades, there's no big ceremonies. You didn't go
out and celebrate and say whoo, we won because you
don't feel like we won. You feel like we lost.
And so America has this dark cloud over it that
(16:54):
is Donald Trump, and it won't go away, and it
won't stop raining, and we're down here and we're tired
of it. It's like we live in Seattle. We're sick
of the gray. We are ready for some sunshine. I
read another article this morning that said Donald Trump and
the economy has America singing the summer blues. Less people
(17:17):
are traveling. I was talking to my friend David this morning.
I said, or Steve, I said, you know, we need
to go to the Pocono's for the summer. It's a
you know, cooler there. And he said, what are those
And I said, oh, it's where the Jews used to
go and have you know, summer vacations. They'd rent cabins
for a month or two months or three months. He goes,
They would, I said, yes, summer people used to go
(17:38):
on summer vacation for a month or two months. They'd
take their families from New York down to Florida, or
they'd go to the Poconos, or they'd go in California,
they'd go to the Redwoods. They'd go here, he goes.
People would get away from work for a month. I
said yes. And it was only one breadwinner then, and
dad or mom would take a month off and go
(18:00):
on vacation with the kids or with each other. Who
does that now? Who rents a cabin for a month
and goes away for the summer. No one except rich people,
but pretty much no one that era is over. Why
because who could afford to take a month off of work.
(18:21):
You'd have to be making boo coo bucks. James Snabel says,
I'm tired of Middle East transformational projects which cost money
and lives. I couldn't agree more. I'm so sick of
the Middle East. I am. You know. Andrew used to
get angry and say, just turn it all to glass.
He would say, nuke it all, turn it all to glass.
He would get Andrew would get so frustrated on how
(18:42):
much time and money is spent on the Middle East.
He's all, We've got it. We've got an East coast
that needs money and time. We've got a Midwest that
needs money and time. California and the West need water.
We need infrastructure to get water to the Colorado River.
We could spend three hundred billion dollars could so the
drought in the West. It could build five desalinization plants.
(19:06):
It could build a pipeline from the Midwest to the Colorado.
Three hundred billion dollars could put high speed trains all
over the country. Why can't I hop on a train
here in Las Vegas and go see my friend in Orlando?
Why I can't even get an Amtrak here. There is
no Amtrak in Las Vegas. There's no trains that come here, none, zero,
(19:29):
and the one they're building is going to go to
Rancho Cucamonga. It's stupid. So we live in this time,
you know, where everybody's arguing about everything Northrop and Northrop
is retiring from gay USA and want an experienced journalist
with historical knowledge of social activism and issues. Could it
(19:51):
be you? Could they? Free Speech TV knows who I am.
They know who I am if they wanted to hire
me for that job. I used to have a sh
show on Free Speech TV, so they know who I am.
But you know, so we live in this time. I
agree ambulances should be free. People saying that in the
(20:12):
chat room the First Amendments being destroyed. Yes, it is.
You know, we live in this, this dark cloud of
a time. And so I told my friend David, I said,
sometimes I think it's me. I think you know, Yo,
you've turned so negative in your old age, and you
feel like it has been And my friend said, today, well,
(20:32):
at least you were. At least you were something. There
are so many people who don't even have has been
status because they never were. Now my gay community is
at odds. The young gay community is now at odds
with the old gay community. So now there's a civil
war going on there, which would end up being a
dance party, probably civil war, the dance party featuring DJ
(20:54):
robin Is or whatever. So I didn't plan on talking
about this today, the topic that sort of you know,
we have a happiness crisis in America. We really do.
That's why people are turning to drugs and so many
other vibings of the Internet. That's why social media is
so popular. People are unhappy if they just get lost
(21:16):
in the just get lost in the algorithm.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
Say, now is show side?
Speaker 5 (21:40):
So yeah, I mean, we all are responsible for our
own happiness, I know. But it's hard to be joyous
when you look at the news and you see Donald
Trump giving thirty billion dollars to the IATOLA right away,
right away. This week, thirty billion dollars is being released
to the Ayatola, money that we had embargoed and sanctioned.
(22:05):
I don't even know what alexa. What is the population
of Iran? Yes, so there's ninety three million people in Iran.
We're giving we're releasing thirty billion dollars to them right now,
I wonder how much that is per person Alexa, what
(22:26):
is thirty billion divided by ninety three million? So we're
releasing three hundred and twenty two dollars per Iranian today
to the Ayahtola who hates us. We took off his leg,
killed his father and his wife and his child. We're
(22:49):
giving someone thirty billion dollars that hates us. And what
do you suppose he's going to do with that money?
Put it to wonderful altruistic causes. You'd think he's going
to donate it to charity, use it to liberate his people. No,
he's gonna funnel it into anti American terrorism. That's what
he's gonna do. Oh, he won't make a big deal about,
(23:12):
you know, publicizing it, but he's gonna funnel it to Hamas.
And you wait, there will be a tax on Americans.
Aron's not gonna they know they have the upper hand
now they won They're gonna take that money and use
it against us. And they'll take that three hundred billion dollars,
(23:34):
that restorative fund and they won't dump it into their infrastructure.
And by the way, why do we need to help them?
Rebuild did we hit civilian targets? Because if we did,
then Donald Trump is a war criminal? Is this his
payoff to not be convicted of war crimes? And I'm
not the first to say this concern. Mark Levin, a conservative, said,
(23:58):
why are we helping to rebuild their infrastructure if we
only hit military targets? Because in war that's all you're
supposed to hit. So why are we paying money to
help them rebuild their military targets? Otherwise we hit civilian
(24:19):
targets and Trump's a war criminal. It can't be both ways.
Did we hit military targets only or did we hit
civilian targets. If we hit civilian he's a war criminal.
So I don't even know what that money is for,
you know, And what is he doing? What kind of
(24:41):
charge card does he have? Because we're broke. So my
friend Brandon has five year old kids. Their children's children
will be paying this debt. We can't pay this debt
off three hundred billion dollars ALEXA. What is three hundred
billion by three hundred and forty million, We all every American,
(25:12):
every baby, every grown up, every senior, every everything, would
have to send the government nine hundred dollars to pay
for what we're giving to Iran, every single every homeless person,
everybody in America. Now, since only half of that number works,
(25:32):
that means if you're working, Donald Trump just puts you
eighteen hundred dollars in debt. Every American worker just got
a charge card with a minus eighteen hundred dollars on it.
How about that? You think they know that. You think
maga is smart enough to figure out that he just
(25:55):
gave away eighteen hundred dollars per working person in America,
or nine hundred dollars for every American. No, because they
hear the term three hundred billion, and they have no
idea how much it means. Remember a dollar a minute.
If you have a million dollars and you give away
(26:15):
a dollar a minute, you will run out of dollars
in eleven and a half days. If you have a
billion dollars, I'm sorry a second, a dollar per second.
If you have a million dollars and you give away
a dollar per second, you'll run out of money in
eleven and a half days. If you have a billion
(26:36):
dollars and give away one dollar per second, you won't
run out of dollars for thirty two and a half years,
a billions, a lot, three hundred billions even more. And
whether all that comes from the United States or from
around and no, he says it's going to come from
across the globe. Who's gonna pay who? You think the
(27:00):
Saudis are gonna give money to the Iranians that bomb them?
You think the Lebanese, the Syrians, the Israelis who caused
all of this. Why isn't Israel paying the three hundred
billion dollars? Why are we This was all done at
Israel's behest, but here we are. No one's gonna help
(27:24):
him with that bill. They're all gonna laugh at him.
They're gonna be like, we ain't giving you a dime
to give to Iran? Who would Why would they? He
started it, He caused everybody paying in every country everywhere.
Why would anybody anywhere give him money to give Iran?
(27:45):
Because he asked nicely?
Speaker 6 (27:47):
Please?
Speaker 5 (27:50):
So now every American's eighteen hundred dollars more in debt
plus the thirty billion we're releasing. Why are we releasing
money we took from Iran in sanctions? Why? Well, because
we lost the war. But have we not lost? I
mean the war cost US thirty billion dollars. Why aren't
we keeping that money to pay for the war? Winners
(28:12):
keep the spoils. The spoils of war go to the winners.
Who is getting the spoils of this war? Are we
getting free oil from Iran? We are not. Is Iran
paying us for all the weapons that we used against them?
The billions we spent in weapons? They are not. Are
(28:34):
we paying them? We are? So Who got the spoils
of war? The Iranians? And who gets the spoils in
a war the winners? Pretty simple? Huh? Pretty simple? Pretty simple?
(28:54):
What's going on in the chatroom at YouTube dot com
forward slash really corralled? Uh? Someone says, blame yourself. I
don't know what that means.
Speaker 3 (29:03):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (29:04):
In the end, believe me, I blame myself for a
lot of stuff. In the end, we are all have them. Amen.
We have the right to pursue happiness. But I guess
that's left of you left. You're right, it's in the constitution.
We're about to celebrate. You even feel like having a
fourth and delve at you? And I'm being an You
didn't feel like it because I don't.

Speaker 5 (30:19):
All right, I had to find Emperor. Sorry, how among
those dog owners that if I don't know where she
is every moment of the day, I freak fucking out where?
All right? A couple of things I want to talk
about today. So in the gay community, we're making a
lot of mistakes. And in the Castro district of San Francisco,
(30:45):
there are several bars where when you go to the bar,
now you present your ID and they do a TSA
type facial scam. They have your name, your address. They're
a gay bar, so they obviously know you're gay. They
collect this info, they share it between other bars that
(31:07):
have these facial scanners. They keep the info for at
least thirty days, and people are pissed. And now the
bar says, we're doing this to keep troublemakers out. If
we do this and someone gets in a fight or
someone is a troublemaker, we can then put them, flag
(31:28):
them in the system. So if we throw them out
and they go to go to another bar, they won't
be let in. Now, privacy advocates are like, wait a minute,
you're compiling a list of gay people. Their IDs, their
home addresses, you know, their date of birth, their driver's
license numbers, their face, their facial recognition. You know what
(31:52):
part of that sounds like a good idea? Under Donald Trump?
I can't argue with that. So my question to you,
if you went up to a bar, straight bar, gay bar,
doesn't matter, a venue, a concert, whatever it is, and
they asked to scan your face, are you going inside?
(32:15):
My answer is no, nope. If I go to a club,
a restaurant, a bar, whatever, and they want to scan
my face, the answer is no, I'll leave, no thanks,
I don't need to go inside. And the sad part
is these queens are just doing it. They're just letting
them scan their faces and going inside. Would you leave
(32:39):
your comment down below? Would you allow your face to
be scanned to go into a bar? They say, look,
it's for your own safety, isn't that how they frame everything. Oh,
it's for your own good, they say, it's for your
own good. Would you allow your face to be scanned
to enter any business outside of the airport, the TSA
(33:02):
getting on a plane. Would you let your face be
scanned to go into a government building, the solid security
office or something? Do you? I mean, look, we know
they have cameras out on the streets. We know they're
using facial recognition software. We know this. So is it
just antiquated thinking to think that we're not all going
(33:24):
to have this, you know, as just normal where you
just walk in any place and it scans your face.
I mean that where that's just a normal thing to do.
Big brother at its best, would you allow, especially if
you're gay, If you're gay, or an immigrant or a woman,
(33:45):
you know, you go into a club and you're by
yourself and you're a woman, you're giving them your home address,
You're giving them your picture, you're giving them your facial scan.
You're getting you know. And do we trust bars to
not sell this info, to not keep a list, to
not do we trust the government to not demand this info?
(34:07):
I don't, So am I paranoid? Well? Yeah, but with
good reason? Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not
out to get you. So what would would you if
you walk up to an establishment and they have a
facial ID scanner? Would you allow them to scan your
(34:28):
face to go into the bar? I would not. Do
you have a choice, of course, you have a choice
not go in. You know, your choice is to not
frequent that establishment. I will always forget that that we
ultimately have a choice. But would you do it? I
(34:50):
would not. But they're doing it in the Castro right
now as we speak tonight. When people go into bars,
bad Lands and others in the Castro, they're going to
have their along with their ID. It's not just a
facial scam. They stand your driver's license and to fate,
just like at the airport how they stand your passport
or license in your face. They're doing that in the
(35:12):
Castro in De Francisco. Would you go into any place.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
That did that?

Speaker 1 (35:35):
Fear Correll is so near because.
Speaker 2 (35:38):
Show time is here, so on with the show. Let's
give it a go. Corrill is the one that you
need to know.
Speaker 5 (35:48):
Well, the consensus in the chat room is hell no,
Hell to the no. And I don't I don't blame them.
I wouldn't do it. And if that becomes the norm,
I guess I'm gonna be staying home a lot. You know. Really,
if that just becomes normal at a bar to scan
your face before you go in, I guess I'll just
(36:08):
stay home, you know. And I haven't heard one straight
establishment doing this. Okay, I have not heard one straight
establishment doing it. Why are they only doing it at
gay bars? And they say, oh, because of troublemakers. Gay
bars have the least amount of fights of any bars. Okay,
(36:32):
Queens do not go inside bars and get in fights.
It's not what we do. And if we do, it's
they have drag offs, they have lip sync for your
life contest. They don't beat the crap out of each other.
You have a mistake. And for a country western bar
in Alabama. So I wouldn't do it, and I don't
(36:53):
think you should either. I think if you walk up
to an establishment and they want to scan your face,
tell them nope. Sorry, not coming in. You're not getting
my money. And when enough people turn around at the door,
the bar will change its policy. You know, so many
of our rights are taken away in the name of
protecting us. That's an old quote. I think it was
(37:13):
like Thomas Jefferson or something said, you know, people will
gladly give up their rights in the name of protection.
And we've done it historically. Look at the Patriot Act
that Faiza. The Patriot Act allows all that spying and
surveillance and just just a breach of the constitution. And
(37:33):
we allowed it because we were afraid of terrorists. Who,
by the way, where's the attacks? We were told if
we didn't give up all of our freedoms that there'd
be nothing but terrorist attacks. There hasn't been a terrorist
attack sin since when now there's been American terrorist. Every
(37:54):
time there's a mass shooting, that's an American terrorist. But
in terms of Kaida Hamas any of that. And it's
not because cash Buttel is able to do such a
good job. We were lied to, plain and simple. They
wanted to take away our rights, so they lied to
(38:14):
us and got what they wanted. A big government machine
called the Department of Homeland Security, multi billion dollar agency
whose sole purpose is to take away your rights, doesn't
make you any safer. The same with ICE. Ice makes
you no safer. It doesn't cut down on immigration, none
of that. It just terrorizes immigrants, takes away their rights
(38:37):
to do process. Oh but we have to take away
their right to do process. They're law breakers, they're this,
they're that. Yeah. No, no, So I have found So
I knew that Andrew had HIV, and then I knew
he had AIDS, and we knew it was a very
(39:00):
real possibility that he was going to die early. We
knew that. But as much as you think you're prepared
for it, or as much as you think that you're
ready for it, you're not, because in your mind, even
though you know it could happen or probably will happen,
(39:26):
you just put it aside, Well, it's not gonna happen today,
So you know, I'm not gonna worry about it. I'll
worry about it when it happens. It's not gonna happen today.
And I bring up that story because scientists have just
told us that something that I go over all the time,
the Cajonne Pass, which is on the fifteen in between
Las Vegas and California, you know, right there by Victorville
(39:49):
Apple Valley, it's the gateway to the High Desert. Is
at the one thousand, there hasn't been this much pressure
on the San Andreas and connecting fall in over a
thousand years. That the fault is at an all time
thousand year high when it comes to pressure. Now, they're
(40:11):
not saying that means it's gonna blow up today or tomorrow,
but they are saying that the pressures at a thousand
year high and that ultimately it will have to be released. Now,
the San Andreas fault is not a meeting of two
tectonic plates that could break apart. Okay, so every until
California is gonna fall into the ocean. No, that's not
(40:34):
the San Andreas. It's it's like this. It's one plate
here and one plate going this way. So one plate
pushing this way, or you know, one mass pushing this
way and one pushing this way. And when it has
an earthquake, it doesn't go down and crack, it moves
side to side. That's how it releases the pressure. Because
(40:58):
one plate's headed north, one plate's headed south. This is
where they meet and they do this. So it's not
a matter of will California fall off into the sea, No,
it won't. Could the coast shift? Absolutely? Is it going
to happen? Absolutely? Is Southern California all the way up
(41:22):
to Seattle prepared Absolutely not. Japan excels at earthquake preparedness.
We do not, do you know? In Japan they sell
beds that if it senses an earthquake, the bed opens
up and you fall down into it and then it
covers up and that way if anything falls or whatever,
(41:43):
you're enclosed in this box and inside that box there's air,
there's food, there's water. Beds that do that. We don't
have those beds. Do you know Their buildings in Tokyo
can withstand a ten point earthquake. Ours can't. Many buildings
in San Francisco and La Toast. So we know it's coming,
(42:09):
We know the faults at one thousand year high when
it comes to pressure, and yet we're doing nothing about
it and going about our daily lives like it's not
going to happen. Because most of us do not believe
that the big one is going to happen. Because my
whole life and I've lived in southern California and now
(42:31):
Vegas for fifty one years total my whole life. I've
heard about the big one and it's never happened. Silmar
was big seven point something. That was big, Northridge six
point eight. That was big, Loma Prieta that was very
big up in San Francisco. I've been through some huge quakes,
but not a you know, eight or nine or ten,
(42:52):
and that's what they're talking. So it's an odd trait
we humans have. We know this is going to happen,
it's not. It might it's going to happen, but we
just don't think it's going to happen to us. And
that applies to so many things. We go out in
(43:12):
our cars every day driving and we act like no
one gets into recks. We think, oh, let's you know,
people do, but it's not going to happen to me.
There's so many things in life that we know are
probably going to happen, but we just think, well, they're
not going to happen to me. That doesn't affect me.
It's not going to happen to me. And then there's
(43:33):
the Cascadia Subduction Zone, which goes from a little bit
below San Francisco out in the ocean all the way
up past Seattle. If that breaks loose, and we know
it's going to when it breaks loose, the entire coastline
could shift ten to twenty feet. I want you to
(43:58):
imagine everything from San Francisco to Seattle, everything along the
coast moving ten to twenty feet up. Imagine that ten
to twenty feet everything, every building, every everything moving ten
to twenty feet up the devastation. Millions would die. Millions
(44:23):
would die or be injured. Tsunamis, huge tsunamis. Seattle would
be hit, San Francisco would be hit. Los Angeles would
be hit by enormous tsunamis that could go up to
a mile inland a mile. These aren't maybes. This is
(44:45):
going to happen. And just like climate change, this is
a perfect example. Al Gore told us thirty years ago
what was going to happen. It's happened. Why because we
act like it's not really gonna happen, or it's not
gonna happen in my lifetime, or it's not gonna really
happen to us, or it's not going to be that bad.
(45:08):
It is that bad, and it happened. So my question is,
are you prepared wherever you live for whatever disaster may
befall you. If you live in a fire area, are
you ready to evacuate? There are fires burning all over
right now, there's smoke all over Las Vegas. Are you
ready to evacuate? If you live in a fire area.
(45:30):
Do you have a go bag? Do you have a plan?
Do you have an out of state contact? Do you
have an emergency kit? If you live in San Jose,
San Francisco, if you live in Seattle, if you live
anywhere between Los Angeles and Vancouver, British Columbia. Are you
ready for an enormous earthquake? Do you have a plan?
Do you have cash? ATMs will not work? Do you
(45:53):
have cash in a safe somewhere? Do you have a gun?
If chaos ensues and banks are down and stores are closed,
you may need one. Do you have medical supplies? Do
you have backup prescriptions? You might have to go weeks
or a month before you can refill your prescriptions. Do
you have backup pills? Most of you are saying no.
(46:18):
You might have a kit, but it's not complete. So
as this story is in the news that this fault
is at a thousand year high, when it comes to pressure.
It should be a wake up call for everybody to
get their kit together. You know, here in Vegas we
don't have natural disasters. We do have earthquakes. And if
(46:41):
the cahone pass let loose, we'd feel it here in
Vegas and it'd be big. It'd be substantial. It'd probably
be five or six, maybe even seven by the time
it got to us. If it's a ten point four
hundred miles that way, by the time it got to
us through the mountains and all of that, which would
absorb some of the shit, it would still be big.
(47:03):
No one in Vegas is prepared for an earthquake, no one,
And yet Nevada has as many as California. No one
even knows that we had one here. The other day
it was a four point one and everyone got all
up in a tizzy and I said, well, we have
earthquakes in Nevada as much as California. They were like
what I said, Yes, in fact, there's more fault lines
(47:24):
in Nevada than there are in California. And they're like,
no way, I said, look it up. They couldn't believe it,
but there are so no one in this city is
ready and those buildings on the strip, they are not
made for earthquakes. Trust me. The new guitar they're building
for the the hard rock, Oh, it's something. I should
(47:46):
take you down and show it to you. It's huge.
I have never seen such an enormous hotel. And it's
in the guitar shape. It's not. It's all glass on
the outside. If there's an earthquake, that's all gonna just
shatter and fall down on people and they going to die.
So I hope that you will use this story about
(48:06):
the thousand year pressure to make sure you have an
emergency plan. You have a way to contact somebody out
of state in case the phone lines go down and
you can't the cell service goes down. You know, maybe
a satellite phone or a landline or something. But you
got to have someone out of state that you can call.
(48:27):
So then your family if what if your family's not
at home? Do you have a plan? Have you told
your wife or your kids if we're separated and there's
an earthquake, go to this location. Have you made that plan?
Most of you have not. Do you have a designated
out of state to tell your family? If we're separated,
(48:49):
call this person. Call on so and so. Let them
know where you are, because we'll check in with them.
I don't know that a lot of you have done that,
and I truly hope that you do. Let this story
in the news, Let it guide you and help prepare you,
(49:13):
you know, please, because it's coming, and it may be
it could be right now, it could be today. I
know that we don't. You know, I know that we
don't think that way. It's like death fifty you know,
this is a prime example. Fifty percent of Americans do
(49:34):
not have a will. Do you do you have a
will or a trust? Fifty percent of Americans don't have
a will, but one hundred percent of Americans are going
to die. It's the same thing. We ignore unpleasant topics.
We just do. We don't prepare for the unpleasant. I
(49:58):
thought I was prepared for when Andrew died. I was wrong.
I was completely wrong. Oh boy was I wrong. And
I certainly didn't expect him to die that night. He
was doing well on the drugs. He was we we
had plans. We were going to go on to the
radio in San Francisco and we were going to take
over broadcasting country wide. We were going to be the
gay couple. We were you know, we had plans and
(50:20):
they all ended on May very unexpectedly. Do you have
plans for what happened when the worst happened? Do you
have a will? Have you paid for your cremation or barrier?
You have an emergency kit, you have an emergency contest,
(50:40):
you have past maybe a satellite FUNDAM, that would be
very helpful. They're not that much.
Speaker 4 (51:03):
Now it's show side.
Speaker 5 (51:08):
All right, Wow, the show flew by today? Really did?
Always so glad when I can spend some time with
you guys, I am it makes me happy and I
like being happy. So I hope you're prepared. I hope
you are prepared because that fault is at one thousand
year pressure and it could go another one hundred years
two hundred five hundred, or it could go another two minutes.
(51:32):
Preparing for the unpleasant is not easy. When I sit down,
I still have to do a pre need. I still
have to call Mackenzie Cremation and Burial in Long Beach,
and Ken McKenzie is a friend of mine and I
have to prepay for my cremation. I've put that off
for so long. I have a trust set up forever,
(51:56):
but I have to prepay my burial, and I haven't
done it yet. I know that I want my party
to be on the Queen Mary, if it still exists
at the Observation Bar. I want everyone to go to
the Observation Bar, look out over Long Beach and have
a fucking party. That's what I want. As for my ashes,
any of my family that want my ashes can have some,
(52:18):
and whatever's left over spread where I spread Andrew out
at sea. I have the coordinates. I have the GPS
coordinates of where the boat dropped Andrew's ashes, and that's
where I want my ashes to be dropped off the
coast of Long Beach. You would think that I would
live back in Long Beach. I want my memorial to
be on the Queen Mary. I want to be dropped
off in the ocean, off the coast of Long Beach.
(52:39):
You would think that means I should live there, and
if I had the money, maybe I would. Yesterday I
found out Taco Terry and here in Las Vegas is
franchising and I have the perfect spot in Long Beach
for it, where Portfolio Coffee used to be fourth in Unippero,
A great spot. It's release Taco Terryan is franchising. They're
the number one Veganka in the country. I could move
(53:02):
back to Long Beach, start a Taco Terrian, have a
podcast studio in the corner for me and for others
to use. Have a case of pastries from I Declare
brought down from Pasadena every day. Have tea in the afternoons. Oh,
how fabulous would it be if only I had a
million or two dollars to you know, make that happen.
(53:24):
But yeah, do you have a pre neat? Have you
paid for your cremation? Have you paid for your burial?
Probably not? Why because I guess you don't want to
face the fact that you're gonna die. And you know,
there are flipping people in my chat room right now
talking about, Oh what a great thing it would be
for California if if the big one hit, millions of
people died, it wouldn't be a great thing. There'd be
(53:46):
nothing great about an eight or nine point earthquake. Families
would be torn apart, hundreds of thousands or millions would die,
lose their homes. There's nothing great about that. So your
little flippant comments are fucked up. California is one of
(54:07):
the most beautiful states in the world period. It is
one of the world's largest economies. It is one of
the most progressive and liberal states. It provides a lot
of agriculture to the world and to the country. Many
great people have been from there and many great businesses
(54:28):
were started there. There would be no tech industry without California.
I hate people who hate on California. That pisses me off.
It is possibly one of the best states in the
United States. Set Two of the most world class cities
ever are in California. Los Angeles, which includes Hollywood and
Long Beach, and San Francisco. Those cities are unrivaled by
(54:53):
any other cities in the world. They hold up against Paris, London,
New York. This hate for California is stupid. It is
a spectacular place to live. It is a spectacular, spectacular state.
It has incredible beauty. The notion that any part of
(55:13):
it is bad is ridiculous. And the people are fabulous.
They're incredible. Some are assholes, some are not, many are creative,
many are not. But they all have one thing in common.
They're Californians. And guess what, they're great people. But see,
I look at America differently. I think New Yorkers are
(55:33):
great people. I do. I think people from Seattle are
great people. Little depressed, little grungy, but great. San Francisco.
You can't beat it. You can't beat the people. You
can't beat the city. Philadelphia incredible city, birthplace, is so
much history, so beautiful. Miami, what a gorgeous location. America
(55:58):
has many world classes. I don't like the people poopoo
on it. We don't the government aside. We're a beautiful nation,
and government aside. We have gorgeous cities. The South hot
and ugly, really is New Orleans is fun New Orleans.
But outside of that, Atlanta okay, but hot Texas a
(56:22):
total waste. Get rid of it. Let them seceede I mean, really, Dallas,
Galveston Islands, there's better. So Texas give back to whoever.
Let them succeed. But we have a lot of world
class states. So stop poopoo in California. And if the
(56:42):
fault let loose, it would not be a great thing,
it would be one of the most horrific. Well, when
it does, it's going to Mount Saint Helens is going
to erupt again. Mount Rainier is going to erupt, and
one day the Yellowstone Caldera is going to blow and
take out half the United States. That's going to happen.
(57:03):
We just don't want to think about it. But Yellowstone
will erupt one day period. It's going to maybe not
in our lifetime, but it's gonna happen. And when it does,
half the United States gets wiped out. Period. Four states
right around it have millions die. Oh, you should watch
(57:23):
the thing on Netflix. It's frightening and it's going to happen.
It will happen. So we need to be prepared for
these things. We need to build for these things. We
need to rebuild Los Angeles, rebuild San Francisco to withstand
a ten point zero earthquake. We need homes to have
(57:44):
earthquake shelters in them. We need people to have satellite
phone capability. We need to make those cheaper so people
could then contact people if the cells go down. We
need to act like it's going to happen, because it's
going to happen, but we don't just like. We need
(58:06):
to act like we're going to die because we are.
Most of us live. The reason we waste our lives
is because we act like we're not going to die,
like we have all the time in the world to
get it right. We have all the time in the
world for our dreams. We have all the time, and
that we don't. We don't. We're all getting closer to death,
(58:29):
all of every person listening to me. Now, you're one
day closer to not being here. So enjoy. I am
Correl do who you want to be is on them,
hurt anybody, and prepare, Prepare for disaster so when they happen. Okay,
maybe I'll do that pre need today. Oh that'd be depressing,
(58:52):
but I gotta do it.

Should bars have TSA style facial scanners for security? Not sure,
but I'm gonna tell you. Also the deal that isn't
and the big one is coming Pluster's brew haha. Here
as you can hear, I'll tell you what all that's about, too.
It is the Carell Show. I am Correl, so very
(00:52):
glad you are joining me. One of those things. Been
waiting all morning for someone to arrive, and they arrive
right as I go on air. The moment we go
on air, they arrive at the door. So you hear
ember out there carrying on. But just know that it
means my house is about to get cleaned. The expenditure,
the extravagance I give myself once a month. Do you
(01:14):
give yourself something once a month that you probably shouldn't,
that you know you can't afford or you can't really do,
but you do it anyway because you figure life is
short and what the hell for me? It's my housekeeper
once a month. I would have them every week if
I could afford it. But once a month she comes,
Zuma comes and helps me because I am older and disabled,
(01:34):
and you know what, I need help. All right, We
got a lot to talk about today. Speaking of needing help,
I think we all need help. The country needs help.
We've got an out of control madman president who spent
the better part of the morning this morning, from four
to twenty eight, three o'clock in the morning, four o'clock
in the morning, five o'clock rage tweeting. And that's because
(01:58):
even his conservative supporters in the media, Fox News included,
have all said the Iran deal is not a deal,
it's a surrender. Everybody has said that now The Guardian,
the Irish Times, the Fox News, MSN, you know, ms NOW, CNN,
every journalist, the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times,
(02:20):
they have all pointed out this isn't a great deal
for the United States. That before the war, the Strait
of Hornmouth was open, Iran was being crippled by sanctions.
Thirteen Americans that are now dead were alive, and five
thousand or more Iranians that were you know, alive were
(02:42):
still alive. And Marco Rubio has called it a foreign
policy blunder and or something like that. He said it
was not a good thing, and that Trump was probably
listening to bad advice that sort of stuff. There's nothing
we can do about it. And by the way, it's
(03:02):
it does nothing about their nuclear capabilities. That's been tabled
for sixty days. And now they have a bargaining chip
that they know is a winner, which is the Strait
of Hormouth. They know that they can, in fact, threaten
the world's economy with that stretch of waterway and get
(03:23):
what they want, you know, hold us by the Gonads.
And so it is not a good deal. And oh, Sandy,
you've been getting a professional massage once a month since
the beginning of the year. Good for you. Good for
you in seventy eighty bucks. You know who cares? I've
really gotten that way, you know. I know I should
talk about this deal with iron I know I should.
(03:44):
But it's not a deal. It's surrender. But you know,
on my mind are so many things this morning. And
that's why I'm not Stephanie Miller, I'm not David Pacman.
I'm not And maybe that's why I'm not making their money.
Maybe y'all don't want what I'm selling. But you know,
like what's on my mind this morning is quality of life,
(04:05):
you know, quality of life and happiness. I've noticed Ember
is going under the chair more, and going under the
buffet more, and going under the bathroom sync more. And
I'm like, why is she hiding? Well? Why does she
seem unhappy? And I thought, A, she hates the summer,
(04:25):
and b I act unhappy And look, I'm not. I
make enough money to pay my bills. I have a
good credit score, I have a podcast, albeit small, you know.
And this morning I woke up all mad that I
wasn't at the first the Culturista Awards, that I'm not
getting a Culturista award that, you know. I woke up
(04:46):
angry that I'm not a part of this big gay
thing that goes on. And I'm like, well, you don't
put yourself out there. You don't, you know, solicit it.
Yesterday my friend David told me to send three text
to people that could help me. So I did. And
what do you know, they're gonna help me. I've got
a person putting in a good word at Palm Springs
(05:07):
Pride for me. I've got I emailed the Razrum or
the Hotel Nico and said, let's just pick a date.
If people show up, they show up. If they don't,
they don't. You know, so instead of lying around feeling
bad because quality of life and that goes to your
monthly indulgence, me having the maid come Sandy getting a massage.
(05:30):
You know, we've got to have these indulgences because nowadays
we're just living check to check where the future does
not look bright to us, and it can really just
make a dark cloud live over your head, live over
your house, because there certainly is a dark cloud over
the United States. No one is happy.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
If you know, visiting really Corell dot com daily, you're
missing out. Get the podcast videos and the blug including
recipes at really correll dot com.
Speaker 6 (05:59):
That's really k A R e l dot com.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Show Time is here. No time to fear.
Speaker 1 (06:07):
Corell is so near because showtime is here.
Speaker 2 (06:10):
So on with the show. Let's give it a go.
Carell is the one that you need to know.
Speaker 5 (06:19):
But you know, one is happy. Maga is not happy.
They're still disgruntled. Republicans aren't happy, Democrats aren't happy. The
general population's not happy. No one is really happy today
except Nicks fans in New York. And that's about it.
You know, joy has been robbed from America by Donald Trump.
I was watching a show last night called night Watch
(06:41):
night Watch Nation, and when they encounter someone who's altered,
they ask them things like, you know, what's the day
of the week, and who's the president? And this they
asked this black guy do and this was this was
back in Trump's first term, and they asked this guy,
we'll do you what day is it? And he said
thirsty And they said, do you know the president is?
He goes. I wish I didn't, and we automatically, I
(07:02):
knew I didn't even have to look at the time
zone or what time this was filmed in because I
knew who we meant. We have had our joy, what
little joy we had taken from us. And now, you know,
I see things happening amongst people that I just I
(07:23):
don't understand, and I shake my head. We're going to
talk about this tomorrow on this Gay Week with Scott.
But in the gay community now, young gays, they don't
understand pride, they don't get it, they don't understand what
it's for. They see it as a commodity and not
a protest or a movement, and many of them now
(07:44):
don't want to be associated with trans rights, with queer rights.
They want to just like gay men are like young
gay men. They're like, Oh, I'm not those things. I'm
not a lesbian, I'm not this. And they don't understand
the reason that we all banded together. Why lesbians, gay men,
(08:05):
trans people, why we all banded together. Because unless you're
a voting block, unless you're an economic block, no one cares.
You can't get anything done. So gay men and lesbians
bended together. So and I'm gonna go into this again
tomorrow so we can have more political cloud. And yes,
(08:28):
we band together with trans and with the queer community.
They're all marginalized and on their own, there's not enough voices.
But when they come together, when it's LGBTQIA, when they
all come together, they're a block. There's larger voices, and
all anyone wants to be is heard. And so we're
(08:54):
not being heard. You and I. Our issues are not
being addressed, not by Democrats, not by Republicans. Nobody is
addressing what we care about climate change, We care about that,
we care that this cold blob might stop the Atlantic
ocean stream and change the weather across the globe. We
(09:16):
care about that. We care about equal rights for men,
for women, for gays, for straights, for immigrants, for whomever.
We care about immigrants and how they're treated. We care
about health care for ourselves and for other Americans and
for our family. We care about access to that healthcare.
(09:37):
We care about cost. Last night on night watch Nation
that I was watching, three people refused the ambulance ride
that they clearly needed. They said they would take a
taxi because they didn't have the thousand dollars for the
ambulance ride. No one in a time of distress should
be forced to call a cab because they can't afford
(09:59):
the air ambulance. That only happens in this country. So
we care about that. We don't want them to have
to make that choice. We care about them. But no
one cares about what we care about right now, because
no one is decent these days. Everybody is angry, everybody
(10:23):
is mad at each other. No one can say anything
nice to anybody on social media. I saw someone today
on social media say his name is Destiny. He's a
liberal and he has a channel, and he says, you know,
my friends, when I'm in the middle of a controversy,
will say we support you, or I'll get a text
and says support you, and he says, screw that. Why
aren't you on Twitter or TikTok or Instagram defending me
(10:46):
in the comments? Why aren't you there supporting my opinion?
I ask myself the same thing about you, guys. I
know how many people watch and listen to the show.
Why do you let people go on TikTok and tear
me apart in the comments? Why do you not come
to my defense? Why on Instagram do you let them
(11:07):
say horrible things under my post without coming to my defense?
Why do you just let that happen? I don't know.
I don't get it. I don't understand. Why do liberals
and other gays let MAGA attack me so loudly and
not do anything about it, not post a comment, not
(11:28):
tell them they're at nothing nothing. It's just all negative.
No one supports anybody these days, truly supports them. You
guys support me through Patreon, but only seventy eight of you,
which without you, there'd be no show. I would stop
the show. I'd have to stop the show. I'd have
(11:49):
to find something else. To do to replace that money.
And so we are in this really strange time where
our happiness is not considered. It's like way down on
the list of priorities. But when do you plan? When
do we all plan on being happy? I am sixty three,
(12:10):
I'm going to be sixty four this year, Madonna sixty eight?
When do we all plan on being happy when we're seventy,
when we're eighty, when we're dead. If we're not living
the best life we can today this day, then we're
never living it. Then we're not going to live it.
And Trump has robbed our quality of life. He has
(12:36):
made perks like a maid or a massage, just so
you feel guilty doing it. Shouldn't feel guilty doing nice
things for yourself, but we do because we know that
gas prices are uncertain, that grocery prices are uncertain. You know.
I read an article at USA today that says Americans
(12:56):
can't find a home, and it was a survey of
Americans about home ownership, buying a home, etc. People don't
want to buy houses right now. Home sales are plummeting,
and people don't want to buy them because they're not
certain about the future. They don't know if the economy
is going to hold or go bust. They don't know.
(13:19):
If my neighbor paid two seventy for his condo, they're
already down to two thirty. He's already lost forty grand.
No one wants to move into a house and immediately
lose money. And people are afraid if they buy a
house right now that in six months because of the
uncertain economy, they will already have lost money. So they're
not buying houses. So real estate brokers are struggling. People
(13:39):
in the real estate industry, of all escrow offices, transaction coordinators,
they're all struggling because people don't want to buy houses,
and people like me who own a house that may
want to sell it and buy something else. We're having
to rethink that and rethink our goals and rethink about
(13:59):
where we're going to live because sell our house. Selling
a house right now is not an easy thing to do.
The apartment downstairs for me has been for sale for
four months. When I bought this unit, people lined up
lined up on day one for an open house. When
I sold my house in Long Beach, she had an
(14:19):
open house at nine o'clock. By nine to ten, we
had four offers. Now houses sit on the market for months.
They decreased the price of them. And the article in
USA today says that is a direct byproduct of our
fear of the future. People are not wanting to make
(14:39):
big investments because they truly and Trump's out there saying,
but the stock market's at an all time high. Only
forty six or fifty one percent of you have four
oh one case most of you, forty nine percent of you,
half of you are not invested in the stock market.
When it comes to outside of four to one, how
(15:00):
many people own stocks, that's only twenty six percent. So
seventy four percent of you outside of your four oh
one k don't own any stocks. So when they tout
the stock market is doing so great and we're supposed
to feel good about that, I wonder why most of
us don't own stocks at least not we're not millionaires.
We don't own so much that we have a millionaire
(15:23):
and a millionaire. And so there is this cloud that
MAGA and Donald Trump have brought, and it keeps raining.
We keep waiting for a break in the rain and
some sunshine, and then he starts an unjusting, illegal war
that's going to cost US three hundred billion dollars. That
(15:46):
is a slush fund. Everyone's calling it that Iran will
have better infrastructure than New York or Los Angeles or
San Francisco. And all they had to do was win
a war against the United States. Does that give you happiness?
Do you feel good today? You know? On v Day
(16:07):
when we won World War two, they marched in the streets,
there was tick or tape parades. People kissed each other
in public. When we finally pulled out of Afghanistan. Families
were happy when Desert Storm was over. People were happy
when Vietnam finally ended. A generation was happy. He just
(16:29):
ended this war. And no one is happy except the Iranians.
There's no parades, there's no big ceremonies. You didn't go
out and celebrate and say whoo, we won because you
don't feel like we won. You feel like we lost.
And so America has this dark cloud over it that
(16:54):
is Donald Trump, and it won't go away, and it
won't stop raining, and we're down here and we're tired
of it. It's like we live in Seattle. We're sick
of the gray. We are ready for some sunshine. I
read another article this morning that said Donald Trump and
the economy has America singing the summer blues. Less people
(17:17):
are traveling. I was talking to my friend David this morning.
I said, or Steve, I said, you know, we need
to go to the Pocono's for the summer. It's a
you know, cooler there. And he said, what are those
And I said, oh, it's where the Jews used to
go and have you know, summer vacations. They'd rent cabins
for a month or two months or three months. He goes,
They would, I said, yes, summer people used to go
(17:38):
on summer vacation for a month or two months. They'd
take their families from New York down to Florida, or
they'd go to the Poconos, or they'd go in California,
they'd go to the Redwoods. They'd go here, he goes.
People would get away from work for a month. I
said yes. And it was only one breadwinner then, and
dad or mom would take a month off and go
(18:00):
on vacation with the kids or with each other. Who
does that now? Who rents a cabin for a month
and goes away for the summer. No one except rich people,
but pretty much no one that era is over. Why
because who could afford to take a month off of work.
(18:21):
You'd have to be making boo coo bucks. James Snabel says,
I'm tired of Middle East transformational projects which cost money
and lives. I couldn't agree more. I'm so sick of
the Middle East. I am. You know. Andrew used to
get angry and say, just turn it all to glass.
He would say, nuke it all, turn it all to glass.
He would get Andrew would get so frustrated on how
(18:42):
much time and money is spent on the Middle East.
He's all, We've got it. We've got an East coast
that needs money and time. We've got a Midwest that
needs money and time. California and the West need water.
We need infrastructure to get water to the Colorado River.
We could spend three hundred billion dollars could so the
drought in the West. It could build five desalinization plants.
(19:06):
It could build a pipeline from the Midwest to the Colorado.
Three hundred billion dollars could put high speed trains all
over the country. Why can't I hop on a train
here in Las Vegas and go see my friend in Orlando?
Why I can't even get an Amtrak here. There is
no Amtrak in Las Vegas. There's no trains that come here, none, zero,
(19:29):
and the one they're building is going to go to
Rancho Cucamonga. It's stupid. So we live in this time,
you know, where everybody's arguing about everything Northrop and Northrop
is retiring from gay USA and want an experienced journalist
with historical knowledge of social activism and issues. Could it
(19:51):
be you? Could they? Free Speech TV knows who I am.
They know who I am if they wanted to hire
me for that job. I used to have a sh
show on Free Speech TV, so they know who I am.
But you know, so we live in this time. I
agree ambulances should be free. People saying that in the
(20:12):
chat room the First Amendments being destroyed. Yes, it is.
You know, we live in this, this dark cloud of
a time. And so I told my friend David, I said,
sometimes I think it's me. I think you know, Yo,
you've turned so negative in your old age, and you
feel like it has been And my friend said, today, well,
(20:32):
at least you were. At least you were something. There
are so many people who don't even have has been
status because they never were. Now my gay community is
at odds. The young gay community is now at odds
with the old gay community. So now there's a civil
war going on there, which would end up being a
dance party, probably civil war, the dance party featuring DJ
(20:54):
robin Is or whatever. So I didn't plan on talking
about this today, the topic that sort of you know,
we have a happiness crisis in America. We really do.
That's why people are turning to drugs and so many
other vibings of the Internet. That's why social media is
so popular. People are unhappy if they just get lost
(21:16):
in the just get lost in the algorithm.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
Say, now is show side?
Speaker 5 (21:40):
So yeah, I mean, we all are responsible for our
own happiness, I know. But it's hard to be joyous
when you look at the news and you see Donald
Trump giving thirty billion dollars to the IATOLA right away,
right away. This week, thirty billion dollars is being released
to the Ayatola, money that we had embargoed and sanctioned.
(22:05):
I don't even know what alexa. What is the population
of Iran? Yes, so there's ninety three million people in Iran.
We're giving we're releasing thirty billion dollars to them right now,
I wonder how much that is per person Alexa, what
(22:26):
is thirty billion divided by ninety three million? So we're
releasing three hundred and twenty two dollars per Iranian today
to the Ayahtola who hates us. We took off his leg,
killed his father and his wife and his child. We're
(22:49):
giving someone thirty billion dollars that hates us. And what
do you suppose he's going to do with that money?
Put it to wonderful altruistic causes. You'd think he's going
to donate it to charity, use it to liberate his people. No,
he's gonna funnel it into anti American terrorism. That's what
he's gonna do. Oh, he won't make a big deal about,
(23:12):
you know, publicizing it, but he's gonna funnel it to Hamas.
And you wait, there will be a tax on Americans.
Aron's not gonna they know they have the upper hand
now they won They're gonna take that money and use
it against us. And they'll take that three hundred billion dollars,
(23:34):
that restorative fund and they won't dump it into their infrastructure.
And by the way, why do we need to help them?
Rebuild did we hit civilian targets? Because if we did,
then Donald Trump is a war criminal? Is this his
payoff to not be convicted of war crimes? And I'm
not the first to say this concern. Mark Levin, a conservative, said,
(23:58):
why are we helping to rebuild their infrastructure if we
only hit military targets? Because in war that's all you're
supposed to hit. So why are we paying money to
help them rebuild their military targets? Otherwise we hit civilian
(24:19):
targets and Trump's a war criminal. It can't be both ways.
Did we hit military targets only or did we hit
civilian targets. If we hit civilian he's a war criminal.
So I don't even know what that money is for,
you know, And what is he doing? What kind of
(24:41):
charge card does he have? Because we're broke. So my
friend Brandon has five year old kids. Their children's children
will be paying this debt. We can't pay this debt
off three hundred billion dollars ALEXA. What is three hundred
billion by three hundred and forty million, We all every American,
(25:12):
every baby, every grown up, every senior, every everything, would
have to send the government nine hundred dollars to pay
for what we're giving to Iran, every single every homeless person,
everybody in America. Now, since only half of that number works,
(25:32):
that means if you're working, Donald Trump just puts you
eighteen hundred dollars in debt. Every American worker just got
a charge card with a minus eighteen hundred dollars on it.
How about that? You think they know that. You think
maga is smart enough to figure out that he just
(25:55):
gave away eighteen hundred dollars per working person in America,
or nine hundred dollars for every American. No, because they
hear the term three hundred billion, and they have no
idea how much it means. Remember a dollar a minute.
If you have a million dollars and you give away
(26:15):
a dollar a minute, you will run out of dollars
in eleven and a half days. If you have a
billion dollars, I'm sorry a second, a dollar per second.
If you have a million dollars and you give away
a dollar per second, you'll run out of money in
eleven and a half days. If you have a billion
(26:36):
dollars and give away one dollar per second, you won't
run out of dollars for thirty two and a half years,
a billions, a lot, three hundred billions even more. And
whether all that comes from the United States or from
around and no, he says it's going to come from
across the globe. Who's gonna pay who? You think the
(27:00):
Saudis are gonna give money to the Iranians that bomb them?
You think the Lebanese, the Syrians, the Israelis who caused
all of this. Why isn't Israel paying the three hundred
billion dollars? Why are we This was all done at
Israel's behest, but here we are. No one's gonna help
(27:24):
him with that bill. They're all gonna laugh at him.
They're gonna be like, we ain't giving you a dime
to give to Iran? Who would Why would they? He
started it, He caused everybody paying in every country everywhere.
Why would anybody anywhere give him money to give Iran?
(27:45):
Because he asked nicely?
Speaker 6 (27:47):
Please?
Speaker 5 (27:50):
So now every American's eighteen hundred dollars more in debt
plus the thirty billion we're releasing. Why are we releasing
money we took from Iran in sanctions? Why? Well, because
we lost the war. But have we not lost? I
mean the war cost US thirty billion dollars. Why aren't
we keeping that money to pay for the war? Winners
(28:12):
keep the spoils. The spoils of war go to the winners.
Who is getting the spoils of this war? Are we
getting free oil from Iran? We are not. Is Iran
paying us for all the weapons that we used against them?
The billions we spent in weapons? They are not. Are
(28:34):
we paying them? We are? So Who got the spoils
of war? The Iranians? And who gets the spoils in
a war the winners? Pretty simple? Huh? Pretty simple? Pretty simple?
(28:54):
What's going on in the chatroom at YouTube dot com
forward slash really corralled? Uh? Someone says, blame yourself. I
don't know what that means.
Speaker 3 (29:03):
Uh.
Speaker 5 (29:04):
In the end, believe me, I blame myself for a
lot of stuff. In the end, we are all have them. Amen.
We have the right to pursue happiness. But I guess
that's left of you left. You're right, it's in the constitution.
We're about to celebrate. You even feel like having a
fourth and delve at you? And I'm being an You
didn't feel like it because I don't.

Speaker 5 (30:19):
All right, I had to find Emperor. Sorry, how among
those dog owners that if I don't know where she
is every moment of the day, I freak fucking out where?
All right? A couple of things I want to talk
about today. So in the gay community, we're making a
lot of mistakes. And in the Castro district of San Francisco,
(30:45):
there are several bars where when you go to the bar,
now you present your ID and they do a TSA
type facial scam. They have your name, your address. They're
a gay bar, so they obviously know you're gay. They
collect this info, they share it between other bars that
(31:07):
have these facial scanners. They keep the info for at
least thirty days, and people are pissed. And now the
bar says, we're doing this to keep troublemakers out. If
we do this and someone gets in a fight or
someone is a troublemaker, we can then put them, flag
(31:28):
them in the system. So if we throw them out
and they go to go to another bar, they won't
be let in. Now, privacy advocates are like, wait a minute,
you're compiling a list of gay people. Their IDs, their
home addresses, you know, their date of birth, their driver's
license numbers, their face, their facial recognition. You know what
(31:52):
part of that sounds like a good idea? Under Donald Trump?
I can't argue with that. So my question to you,
if you went up to a bar, straight bar, gay bar,
doesn't matter, a venue, a concert, whatever it is, and
they asked to scan your face, are you going inside?
(32:15):
My answer is no, nope. If I go to a club,
a restaurant, a bar, whatever, and they want to scan
my face, the answer is no, I'll leave, no thanks,
I don't need to go inside. And the sad part
is these queens are just doing it. They're just letting
them scan their faces and going inside. Would you leave
(32:39):
your comment down below? Would you allow your face to
be scanned to go into a bar? They say, look,
it's for your own safety, isn't that how they frame everything. Oh,
it's for your own good, they say, it's for your
own good. Would you allow your face to be scanned
to enter any business outside of the airport, the TSA
(33:02):
getting on a plane. Would you let your face be
scanned to go into a government building, the solid security
office or something? Do you? I mean, look, we know
they have cameras out on the streets. We know they're
using facial recognition software. We know this. So is it
just antiquated thinking to think that we're not all going
(33:24):
to have this, you know, as just normal where you
just walk in any place and it scans your face.
I mean that where that's just a normal thing to do.
Big brother at its best, would you allow, especially if
you're gay, If you're gay, or an immigrant or a woman,
(33:45):
you know, you go into a club and you're by
yourself and you're a woman, you're giving them your home address,
You're giving them your picture, you're giving them your facial scan.
You're getting you know. And do we trust bars to
not sell this info, to not keep a list, to
not do we trust the government to not demand this info?
(34:07):
I don't, So am I paranoid? Well? Yeah, but with
good reason? Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not
out to get you. So what would would you if
you walk up to an establishment and they have a
facial ID scanner? Would you allow them to scan your
(34:28):
face to go into the bar? I would not. Do
you have a choice, of course, you have a choice
not go in. You know, your choice is to not
frequent that establishment. I will always forget that that we
ultimately have a choice. But would you do it? I
(34:50):
would not. But they're doing it in the Castro right
now as we speak tonight. When people go into bars,
bad Lands and others in the Castro, they're going to
have their along with their ID. It's not just a
facial scam. They stand your driver's license and to fate,
just like at the airport how they stand your passport
or license in your face. They're doing that in the
(35:12):
Castro in De Francisco. Would you go into any place.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
That did that?

Speaker 2 (35:32):
Show Time is here. No time to.
Speaker 1 (35:35):
Fear Correll is so near because.
Speaker 2 (35:38):
Show time is here, so on with the show. Let's
give it a go. Corrill is the one that you
need to know.
Speaker 5 (35:48):
Well, the consensus in the chat room is hell no,
Hell to the no. And I don't I don't blame them.
I wouldn't do it. And if that becomes the norm,
I guess I'm gonna be staying home a lot. You know. Really,
if that just becomes normal at a bar to scan
your face before you go in, I guess I'll just
(36:08):
stay home, you know. And I haven't heard one straight
establishment doing this. Okay, I have not heard one straight
establishment doing it. Why are they only doing it at
gay bars? And they say, oh, because of troublemakers. Gay
bars have the least amount of fights of any bars. Okay,
(36:32):
Queens do not go inside bars and get in fights.
It's not what we do. And if we do, it's
they have drag offs, they have lip sync for your
life contest. They don't beat the crap out of each other.
You have a mistake. And for a country western bar
in Alabama. So I wouldn't do it, and I don't
(36:53):
think you should either. I think if you walk up
to an establishment and they want to scan your face,
tell them nope. Sorry, not coming in. You're not getting
my money. And when enough people turn around at the door,
the bar will change its policy. You know, so many
of our rights are taken away in the name of
protecting us. That's an old quote. I think it was
(37:13):
like Thomas Jefferson or something said, you know, people will
gladly give up their rights in the name of protection.
And we've done it historically. Look at the Patriot Act
that Faiza. The Patriot Act allows all that spying and
surveillance and just just a breach of the constitution. And
(37:33):
we allowed it because we were afraid of terrorists. Who,
by the way, where's the attacks? We were told if
we didn't give up all of our freedoms that there'd
be nothing but terrorist attacks. There hasn't been a terrorist
attack sin since when now there's been American terrorist. Every
(37:54):
time there's a mass shooting, that's an American terrorist. But
in terms of Kaida Hamas any of that. And it's
not because cash Buttel is able to do such a
good job. We were lied to, plain and simple. They
wanted to take away our rights, so they lied to
(38:14):
us and got what they wanted. A big government machine
called the Department of Homeland Security, multi billion dollar agency
whose sole purpose is to take away your rights, doesn't
make you any safer. The same with ICE. Ice makes
you no safer. It doesn't cut down on immigration, none
of that. It just terrorizes immigrants, takes away their rights
(38:37):
to do process. Oh but we have to take away
their right to do process. They're law breakers, they're this,
they're that. Yeah. No, no, So I have found So
I knew that Andrew had HIV, and then I knew
he had AIDS, and we knew it was a very
(39:00):
real possibility that he was going to die early. We
knew that. But as much as you think you're prepared
for it, or as much as you think that you're
ready for it, you're not, because in your mind, even
though you know it could happen or probably will happen,
(39:26):
you just put it aside, Well, it's not gonna happen today,
So you know, I'm not gonna worry about it. I'll
worry about it when it happens. It's not gonna happen today.
And I bring up that story because scientists have just
told us that something that I go over all the time,
the Cajonne Pass, which is on the fifteen in between
Las Vegas and California, you know, right there by Victorville
(39:49):
Apple Valley, it's the gateway to the High Desert. Is
at the one thousand, there hasn't been this much pressure
on the San Andreas and connecting fall in over a
thousand years. That the fault is at an all time
thousand year high when it comes to pressure. Now, they're
(40:11):
not saying that means it's gonna blow up today or tomorrow,
but they are saying that the pressures at a thousand
year high and that ultimately it will have to be released. Now,
the San Andreas fault is not a meeting of two
tectonic plates that could break apart. Okay, so every until
California is gonna fall into the ocean. No, that's not
(40:34):
the San Andreas. It's it's like this. It's one plate
here and one plate going this way. So one plate
pushing this way, or you know, one mass pushing this
way and one pushing this way. And when it has
an earthquake, it doesn't go down and crack, it moves
side to side. That's how it releases the pressure. Because
(40:58):
one plate's headed north, one plate's headed south. This is
where they meet and they do this. So it's not
a matter of will California fall off into the sea, No,
it won't. Could the coast shift? Absolutely? Is it going
to happen? Absolutely? Is Southern California all the way up
(41:22):
to Seattle prepared Absolutely not. Japan excels at earthquake preparedness.
We do not, do you know? In Japan they sell
beds that if it senses an earthquake, the bed opens
up and you fall down into it and then it
covers up and that way if anything falls or whatever,
(41:43):
you're enclosed in this box and inside that box there's air,
there's food, there's water. Beds that do that. We don't
have those beds. Do you know Their buildings in Tokyo
can withstand a ten point earthquake. Ours can't. Many buildings
in San Francisco and La Toast. So we know it's coming,
(42:09):
We know the faults at one thousand year high when
it comes to pressure, and yet we're doing nothing about
it and going about our daily lives like it's not
going to happen. Because most of us do not believe
that the big one is going to happen. Because my
whole life and I've lived in southern California and now
(42:31):
Vegas for fifty one years total my whole life. I've
heard about the big one and it's never happened. Silmar
was big seven point something. That was big, Northridge six
point eight. That was big, Loma Prieta that was very
big up in San Francisco. I've been through some huge quakes,
but not a you know, eight or nine or ten,
(42:52):
and that's what they're talking. So it's an odd trait
we humans have. We know this is going to happen,
it's not. It might it's going to happen, but we
just don't think it's going to happen to us. And
that applies to so many things. We go out in
(43:12):
our cars every day driving and we act like no
one gets into recks. We think, oh, let's you know,
people do, but it's not going to happen to me.
There's so many things in life that we know are
probably going to happen, but we just think, well, they're
not going to happen to me. That doesn't affect me.
It's not going to happen to me. And then there's
(43:33):
the Cascadia Subduction Zone, which goes from a little bit
below San Francisco out in the ocean all the way
up past Seattle. If that breaks loose, and we know
it's going to when it breaks loose, the entire coastline
could shift ten to twenty feet. I want you to
(43:58):
imagine everything from San Francisco to Seattle, everything along the
coast moving ten to twenty feet up. Imagine that ten
to twenty feet everything, every building, every everything moving ten
to twenty feet up the devastation. Millions would die. Millions
(44:23):
would die or be injured. Tsunamis, huge tsunamis. Seattle would
be hit, San Francisco would be hit. Los Angeles would
be hit by enormous tsunamis that could go up to
a mile inland a mile. These aren't maybes. This is
(44:45):
going to happen. And just like climate change, this is
a perfect example. Al Gore told us thirty years ago
what was going to happen. It's happened. Why because we
act like it's not really gonna happen, or it's not
gonna happen in my lifetime, or it's not gonna really
happen to us, or it's not going to be that bad.
(45:08):
It is that bad, and it happened. So my question is,
are you prepared wherever you live for whatever disaster may
befall you. If you live in a fire area, are
you ready to evacuate? There are fires burning all over
right now, there's smoke all over Las Vegas. Are you
ready to evacuate? If you live in a fire area.
(45:30):
Do you have a go bag? Do you have a plan?
Do you have an out of state contact? Do you
have an emergency kit? If you live in San Jose,
San Francisco, if you live in Seattle, if you live
anywhere between Los Angeles and Vancouver, British Columbia. Are you
ready for an enormous earthquake? Do you have a plan?
Do you have cash? ATMs will not work? Do you
(45:53):
have cash in a safe somewhere? Do you have a gun?
If chaos ensues and banks are down and stores are closed,
you may need one. Do you have medical supplies? Do
you have backup prescriptions? You might have to go weeks
or a month before you can refill your prescriptions. Do
you have backup pills? Most of you are saying no.
(46:18):
You might have a kit, but it's not complete. So
as this story is in the news that this fault
is at a thousand year high, when it comes to pressure.
It should be a wake up call for everybody to
get their kit together. You know, here in Vegas we
don't have natural disasters. We do have earthquakes. And if
(46:41):
the cahone pass let loose, we'd feel it here in
Vegas and it'd be big. It'd be substantial. It'd probably
be five or six, maybe even seven by the time
it got to us. If it's a ten point four
hundred miles that way, by the time it got to
us through the mountains and all of that, which would
absorb some of the shit, it would still be big.
(47:03):
No one in Vegas is prepared for an earthquake, no one,
And yet Nevada has as many as California. No one
even knows that we had one here. The other day
it was a four point one and everyone got all
up in a tizzy and I said, well, we have
earthquakes in Nevada as much as California. They were like
what I said, Yes, in fact, there's more fault lines
(47:24):
in Nevada than there are in California. And they're like,
no way, I said, look it up. They couldn't believe it,
but there are so no one in this city is
ready and those buildings on the strip, they are not
made for earthquakes. Trust me. The new guitar they're building
for the the hard rock, Oh, it's something. I should
(47:46):
take you down and show it to you. It's huge.
I have never seen such an enormous hotel. And it's
in the guitar shape. It's not. It's all glass on
the outside. If there's an earthquake, that's all gonna just
shatter and fall down on people and they going to die.
So I hope that you will use this story about
(48:06):
the thousand year pressure to make sure you have an
emergency plan. You have a way to contact somebody out
of state in case the phone lines go down and
you can't the cell service goes down. You know, maybe
a satellite phone or a landline or something. But you
got to have someone out of state that you can call.
(48:27):
So then your family if what if your family's not
at home? Do you have a plan? Have you told
your wife or your kids if we're separated and there's
an earthquake, go to this location. Have you made that plan?
Most of you have not. Do you have a designated
out of state to tell your family? If we're separated,
(48:49):
call this person. Call on so and so. Let them
know where you are, because we'll check in with them.
I don't know that a lot of you have done that,
and I truly hope that you do. Let this story
in the news, Let it guide you and help prepare you,
(49:13):
you know, please, because it's coming, and it may be
it could be right now, it could be today. I
know that we don't. You know, I know that we
don't think that way. It's like death fifty you know,
this is a prime example. Fifty percent of Americans do
(49:34):
not have a will. Do you do you have a
will or a trust? Fifty percent of Americans don't have
a will, but one hundred percent of Americans are going
to die. It's the same thing. We ignore unpleasant topics.
We just do. We don't prepare for the unpleasant. I
(49:58):
thought I was prepared for when Andrew died. I was wrong.
I was completely wrong. Oh boy was I wrong. And
I certainly didn't expect him to die that night. He
was doing well on the drugs. He was we we
had plans. We were going to go on to the
radio in San Francisco and we were going to take
over broadcasting country wide. We were going to be the
gay couple. We were you know, we had plans and
(50:20):
they all ended on May very unexpectedly. Do you have
plans for what happened when the worst happened? Do you
have a will? Have you paid for your cremation or barrier?
You have an emergency kit, you have an emergency contest,
(50:40):
you have past maybe a satellite FUNDAM, that would be
very helpful. They're not that much.
Speaker 4 (51:03):
Now it's show side.
Speaker 5 (51:08):
All right, Wow, the show flew by today? Really did?
Always so glad when I can spend some time with
you guys, I am it makes me happy and I
like being happy. So I hope you're prepared. I hope
you are prepared because that fault is at one thousand
year pressure and it could go another one hundred years
two hundred five hundred, or it could go another two minutes.
(51:32):
Preparing for the unpleasant is not easy. When I sit down,
I still have to do a pre need. I still
have to call Mackenzie Cremation and Burial in Long Beach,
and Ken McKenzie is a friend of mine and I
have to prepay for my cremation. I've put that off
for so long. I have a trust set up forever,
(51:56):
but I have to prepay my burial, and I haven't
done it yet. I know that I want my party
to be on the Queen Mary, if it still exists
at the Observation Bar. I want everyone to go to
the Observation Bar, look out over Long Beach and have
a fucking party. That's what I want. As for my ashes,
any of my family that want my ashes can have some,
(52:18):
and whatever's left over spread where I spread Andrew out
at sea. I have the coordinates. I have the GPS
coordinates of where the boat dropped Andrew's ashes, and that's
where I want my ashes to be dropped off the
coast of Long Beach. You would think that I would
live back in Long Beach. I want my memorial to
be on the Queen Mary. I want to be dropped
off in the ocean, off the coast of Long Beach.
(52:39):
You would think that means I should live there, and
if I had the money, maybe I would. Yesterday I
found out Taco Terry and here in Las Vegas is
franchising and I have the perfect spot in Long Beach
for it, where Portfolio Coffee used to be fourth in Unippero,
A great spot. It's release Taco Terryan is franchising. They're
the number one Veganka in the country. I could move
(53:02):
back to Long Beach, start a Taco Terrian, have a
podcast studio in the corner for me and for others
to use. Have a case of pastries from I Declare
brought down from Pasadena every day. Have tea in the afternoons. Oh,
how fabulous would it be if only I had a
million or two dollars to you know, make that happen.
(53:24):
But yeah, do you have a pre neat? Have you
paid for your cremation? Have you paid for your burial?
Probably not? Why because I guess you don't want to
face the fact that you're gonna die. And you know,
there are flipping people in my chat room right now
talking about, Oh what a great thing it would be
for California if if the big one hit, millions of
people died, it wouldn't be a great thing. There'd be
(53:46):
nothing great about an eight or nine point earthquake. Families
would be torn apart, hundreds of thousands or millions would die,
lose their homes. There's nothing great about that. So your
little flippant comments are fucked up. California is one of
(54:07):
the most beautiful states in the world period. It is
one of the world's largest economies. It is one of
the most progressive and liberal states. It provides a lot
of agriculture to the world and to the country. Many
great people have been from there and many great businesses
(54:28):
were started there. There would be no tech industry without California.
I hate people who hate on California. That pisses me off.
It is possibly one of the best states in the
United States. Set Two of the most world class cities
ever are in California. Los Angeles, which includes Hollywood and
Long Beach, and San Francisco. Those cities are unrivaled by
(54:53):
any other cities in the world. They hold up against Paris, London,
New York. This hate for California is stupid. It is
a spectacular place to live. It is a spectacular, spectacular state.
It has incredible beauty. The notion that any part of
(55:13):
it is bad is ridiculous. And the people are fabulous.
They're incredible. Some are assholes, some are not, many are creative,
many are not. But they all have one thing in common.
They're Californians. And guess what, they're great people. But see,
I look at America differently. I think New Yorkers are
(55:33):
great people. I do. I think people from Seattle are
great people. Little depressed, little grungy, but great. San Francisco.
You can't beat it. You can't beat the people. You
can't beat the city. Philadelphia incredible city, birthplace, is so
much history, so beautiful. Miami, what a gorgeous location. America
(55:58):
has many world classes. I don't like the people poopoo
on it. We don't the government aside. We're a beautiful nation,
and government aside. We have gorgeous cities. The South hot
and ugly, really is New Orleans is fun New Orleans.
But outside of that, Atlanta okay, but hot Texas a
(56:22):
total waste. Get rid of it. Let them seceede I mean, really, Dallas,
Galveston Islands, there's better. So Texas give back to whoever.
Let them succeed. But we have a lot of world
class states. So stop poopoo in California. And if the
(56:42):
fault let loose, it would not be a great thing,
it would be one of the most horrific. Well, when
it does, it's going to Mount Saint Helens is going
to erupt again. Mount Rainier is going to erupt, and
one day the Yellowstone Caldera is going to blow and
take out half the United States. That's going to happen.
(57:03):
We just don't want to think about it. But Yellowstone
will erupt one day period. It's going to maybe not
in our lifetime, but it's gonna happen. And when it does,
half the United States gets wiped out. Period. Four states
right around it have millions die. Oh, you should watch
(57:23):
the thing on Netflix. It's frightening and it's going to happen.
It will happen. So we need to be prepared for
these things. We need to build for these things. We
need to rebuild Los Angeles, rebuild San Francisco to withstand
a ten point zero earthquake. We need homes to have
(57:44):
earthquake shelters in them. We need people to have satellite
phone capability. We need to make those cheaper so people
could then contact people if the cells go down. We
need to act like it's going to happen, because it's
going to happen, but we don't just like. We need
(58:06):
to act like we're going to die because we are.
Most of us live. The reason we waste our lives
is because we act like we're not going to die,
like we have all the time in the world to
get it right. We have all the time in the
world for our dreams. We have all the time, and
that we don't. We don't. We're all getting closer to death,
(58:29):
all of every person listening to me. Now, you're one
day closer to not being here. So enjoy. I am
Correl do who you want to be is on them,
hurt anybody, and prepare, Prepare for disaster so when they happen. Okay,
maybe I'll do that pre need today. Oh that'd be depressing,
(58:52):
but I gotta do it.
