Central Standard Time. 00:02:28.169 --> 00:02:33.250 Or, I guess it's a and. And or. And or. Friday 00:02:33.250 --> 00:02:35.509 after, not even afternoon, it used to be afternoon, 00:02:35.629 --> 00:02:38.030 now it's evening. 8 p .m. I'm on the struggle 00:02:38.030 --> 00:02:40.389 bus. We're gonna make it through though. And 00:02:40.389 --> 00:02:44.030 it's funny, I had sleep. See, here's my theory. 00:02:44.449 --> 00:02:49.789 When I'm in my prime, right, and I'm like going 00:02:49.789 --> 00:02:52.729 out, having fun with friends, couple of drinkies, 00:02:53.210 --> 00:02:55.810 four or five hours of sleep. I find I am much 00:02:55.810 --> 00:02:59.270 more efficient. And I cannot explain it, ladies 00:02:59.270 --> 00:03:01.949 and gentlemen. I don't know what it is. But last 00:03:01.949 --> 00:03:04.729 night, I laid low. I was at home, cooked a little 00:03:04.729 --> 00:03:08.550 meal for myself, watched, well, when we get to 00:03:08.550 --> 00:03:10.729 review, preview, you'll know it. A little foreshadowing 00:03:10.729 --> 00:03:13.789 for you. Oh. And I was kind of watching that. 00:03:13.789 --> 00:03:16.729 It was a series on Netflix. And so I got fell 00:03:16.729 --> 00:03:18.990 into that rabbit hole. And after I was doing 00:03:18.990 --> 00:03:21.270 that and this, and it was after 10, I'm like, 00:03:21.330 --> 00:03:24.180 eh, maybe we'll get some sleep tonight. I woke 00:03:24.180 --> 00:03:27.340 up this morning, I'm all discombobulated. I don't 00:03:27.340 --> 00:03:28.740 know what it is, but... It's like when you've 00:03:28.740 --> 00:03:31.759 got a junker of a car, right? Yeah. And you just 00:03:31.759 --> 00:03:34.219 run it forever and everything's fine. The second 00:03:34.219 --> 00:03:36.900 you like... get a trans flush and change the 00:03:36.900 --> 00:03:39.080 oil, then the car's like, whoa, whoa, whoa, wait 00:03:39.080 --> 00:03:41.740 a minute. What are you doing to me? And then 00:03:41.740 --> 00:03:44.139 the problems show. It's like, ah, shit. Yep, 00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:46.180 exactly. Should've just kept that old ass oil 00:03:46.180 --> 00:03:48.020 in there. Yep, I shouldn't have flushed last 00:03:48.020 --> 00:03:51.560 night. That much I can tell you. But anyway, 00:03:51.659 --> 00:03:53.960 once again, my radio show is Tuesday nights at 00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:57.300 9 PM Central, Friday nights at 8 PM Central. 00:03:57.680 --> 00:04:01.199 You can find the stream at wvlp .org or on the 00:04:01.199 --> 00:04:03.599 TuneIn app on your handheld device. I hear you 00:04:03.599 --> 00:04:06.819 can yell at Alexa. but I don't know, I feel like 00:04:06.819 --> 00:04:09.080 AI is kind of edging towards iRobot, so maybe 00:04:09.080 --> 00:04:11.460 you don't yell at her. Yeah. Nicely suggests 00:04:11.460 --> 00:04:14.319 that she might play after hours for you. Might 00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:16.180 be the way to go. Might be the way to go, yeah. 00:04:16.379 --> 00:04:18.180 Not everyone can... What was the one bot's name? 00:04:18.360 --> 00:04:22.610 Sonny? Not every bot is going to be sunny. No. 00:04:22.769 --> 00:04:25.310 99 % of them might kill you, I hear. That is 00:04:25.310 --> 00:04:27.430 what I hear. People have been saying. Yeah, and 00:04:27.430 --> 00:04:29.750 I, you know, most of what people say I don't 00:04:29.750 --> 00:04:32.009 believe, but I think we're on the same page with 00:04:32.009 --> 00:04:35.850 this one. Yeah, for sure. But at any rate, you 00:04:35.850 --> 00:04:39.730 know, I wanted to get off politics mostly today 00:04:39.730 --> 00:04:43.230 because it's just, it's so, it just consumes 00:04:43.230 --> 00:04:45.389 our lives now, and it never did. It was just 00:04:45.389 --> 00:04:47.050 like, oh, the president visited France today. 00:04:47.050 --> 00:04:49.420 It was like, oh. And then you just got about 00:04:49.420 --> 00:04:52.560 your day. That's all it used to be, right? And 00:04:52.560 --> 00:04:55.379 that was when the world, I think, was a much 00:04:55.379 --> 00:04:59.079 better place, when politics and government and 00:04:59.079 --> 00:05:01.660 shit like that wasn't at the forefront of your 00:05:01.660 --> 00:05:07.240 mind all the time. So I want to talk about this 00:05:07.240 --> 00:05:09.600 past weekend. I attended Riot Fest in Chicago. 00:05:10.139 --> 00:05:12.860 And let me tell you, it was everything I expected 00:05:12.860 --> 00:05:16.839 and more. Bands like Knuckle Puck, James, The 00:05:16.839 --> 00:05:19.959 Front Bottoms, Drop Cape Murphy's, All Time Low, 00:05:20.220 --> 00:05:24.019 Jack White, Weezer. That's just part of it. Guar 00:05:24.019 --> 00:05:26.139 was there throwing their meat around. I mean, 00:05:26.339 --> 00:05:30.939 it was unreal. Amazing food vendors, beer halls, 00:05:31.180 --> 00:05:33.420 illuminated Ferris wheel, they had a boxing ring 00:05:33.420 --> 00:05:35.100 where you could put on like one of those bubble 00:05:35.100 --> 00:05:36.879 suits and smash your friends. Oh, that's great. 00:05:37.459 --> 00:05:39.779 The NWA, the National Wrestling Alliance was 00:05:39.779 --> 00:05:41.740 there. They had a ring and so they had wrestlers 00:05:41.740 --> 00:05:45.040 like putting matches on throughout the day. So 00:05:45.040 --> 00:05:47.920 that was really cool. They even had a chapel 00:05:47.920 --> 00:05:50.100 love. So like if you met someone was like, hey, 00:05:50.139 --> 00:05:52.040 you want to get married? You could get married 00:05:52.040 --> 00:05:54.699 at Riot Fest. That's fun. I mean, it's just it 00:05:54.699 --> 00:05:58.339 was just such a good time. And Here's a funny 00:05:58.339 --> 00:06:01.259 thing. It's like I don't think I've been that 00:06:01.259 --> 00:06:06.139 happy in a long long time. I was bliss and fucking 00:06:06.139 --> 00:06:10.579 tap man and Not to take anything away from my 00:06:10.579 --> 00:06:13.279 enjoyable misadventures with my friends and equally 00:06:13.279 --> 00:06:16.980 awesome times that you and I have It was just 00:06:16.980 --> 00:06:22.670 different and I was happy by myself. And for 00:06:22.670 --> 00:06:24.970 anyone that deals with like anxiety and depression, 00:06:25.350 --> 00:06:30.310 that takes some doing. And it didn't take pharmaceuticals 00:06:30.310 --> 00:06:33.250 to get me there. I did not want that day to end. 00:06:33.410 --> 00:06:39.029 It was just a perfect day. But it also had deeper 00:06:39.029 --> 00:06:41.149 meaning. I guess this is where we talk politics 00:06:41.149 --> 00:06:45.029 for a fraction of a second here. But the deeper 00:06:45.029 --> 00:06:47.569 meaning is that, as you know, Chicago had been 00:06:47.569 --> 00:06:51.069 the target. from Washington, you know, planning 00:06:51.069 --> 00:06:56.889 on sending the National Guard troops and got 00:06:56.889 --> 00:07:02.069 rid of those ICE and all of that, right? Until 00:07:02.069 --> 00:07:04.750 the president realized that Chicagoans are crazy 00:07:04.750 --> 00:07:08.930 motherfuckers, man, and would have gladly fought 00:07:08.930 --> 00:07:14.370 anyone trying to take what Chicago has, as imperfect 00:07:14.370 --> 00:07:18.250 as it is. Stay out of our shit is kind of the 00:07:18.250 --> 00:07:21.310 general motto Well, they didn't come and well 00:07:21.310 --> 00:07:24.089 I ice did but then I shut their facility down 00:07:24.089 --> 00:07:26.790 because people just kept messing with their shit 00:07:26.790 --> 00:07:32.290 So because They pulled out they didn't send it 00:07:32.290 --> 00:07:35.629 because their leader is full of shit and a chicken 00:07:35.629 --> 00:07:39.240 shit. Oh, yeah Which is why he did that? Oh, 00:07:39.259 --> 00:07:41.279 if I do that and then people are gonna be fighting 00:07:41.279 --> 00:07:42.819 and there's gonna be dead Americans all over 00:07:42.819 --> 00:07:45.839 the streets and that's gonna look bad for me. 00:07:46.439 --> 00:07:47.959 Usually he doesn't care about that. Apparently 00:07:47.959 --> 00:07:50.379 this time he did. Right, right. This one was 00:07:50.379 --> 00:07:51.980 not gonna play out well. His appearance could 00:07:51.980 --> 00:07:55.839 have been tarnished. My good god, I get tarnished. 00:07:56.959 --> 00:08:00.180 By goodness. Yeah, but yeah, the full of shit 00:08:00.180 --> 00:08:01.959 chicken jet, that's a double shit right there. 00:08:02.819 --> 00:08:05.500 The festival came at the right time for Proud 00:08:05.500 --> 00:08:08.160 City. filled with bands who are happy to preach 00:08:08.160 --> 00:08:11.420 their message and a crowd who is ready to receive 00:08:11.420 --> 00:08:14.279 it. No fights at RideFest. I was there all day. 00:08:14.459 --> 00:08:17.459 Hugs, high fives, jumping around, singing, dancing, 00:08:18.420 --> 00:08:20.920 singing our ass off, really. In that moment, 00:08:21.019 --> 00:08:24.790 I realized that RideFest... Bonnaroo, well not 00:08:24.790 --> 00:08:28.930 Bonnaroo this year, it was underwater, but oopsie. 00:08:28.930 --> 00:08:31.509 Riot Fest, Bonnaroo, City Lights, North Coast, 00:08:31.769 --> 00:08:34.110 Electric Forest, Stagecoach, Austin City, Limits 00:08:34.110 --> 00:08:37.730 Lala. They're all examples of what really makes 00:08:37.730 --> 00:08:40.169 America great. It doesn't take a fucking red 00:08:40.169 --> 00:08:43.269 hat. This is freedom of expression and it's a 00:08:43.269 --> 00:08:45.610 celebration of life. It's singing, dancing, rejoicing. 00:08:45.929 --> 00:08:50.409 America is the country where we work to live, 00:08:50.429 --> 00:08:53.710 not live to work. at least in theory. Right. 00:08:53.730 --> 00:08:56.529 Should be. Should be. We need to find our way 00:08:56.529 --> 00:08:59.070 back to that mindset that counterculture had 00:08:59.070 --> 00:09:02.210 in like the 60s. Like they knew what they wanted 00:09:02.210 --> 00:09:04.809 and then the 70s happened. That was like everybody 00:09:04.809 --> 00:09:08.049 forgot. They fought against oppression. They 00:09:08.049 --> 00:09:11.090 spoke up often and loudly and they knew how to 00:09:11.090 --> 00:09:12.830 have a good time and love one another no matter 00:09:12.830 --> 00:09:16.210 their differences. I feel time's running out 00:09:16.210 --> 00:09:19.669 but I witnessed what it can be like and I want 00:09:19.669 --> 00:09:23.230 that shit every day. Right. I mean, it's that, 00:09:23.429 --> 00:09:27.710 I mean, am I far off in this? No. No, absolutely 00:09:27.710 --> 00:09:32.029 not. And that's kind of the difference in experience, 00:09:32.509 --> 00:09:36.309 I think, being born at, well, I was born in the 00:09:36.309 --> 00:09:40.190 90s, but I really grew up in the 2000s and 2010s. 00:09:41.649 --> 00:09:44.830 That is such a foreign concept. You know, we 00:09:44.830 --> 00:09:48.049 had the, or at least in my memory, the idiocy 00:09:48.049 --> 00:09:55.250 of George Bush, endless illegal wars, unfounded 00:09:55.250 --> 00:09:59.789 wars, and just government corruption throughout, 00:10:00.210 --> 00:10:03.190 and then... So that's been your life. The whole 00:10:03.190 --> 00:10:07.889 time. Yeah. The whole time. And it's always kind 00:10:07.889 --> 00:10:10.710 of been a looming threat in the background of 00:10:10.710 --> 00:10:14.149 like, wow, this capitalism thing's probably gonna 00:10:14.149 --> 00:10:17.990 fucking hit the fan here soon. And then Donald 00:10:17.990 --> 00:10:21.299 Trump happened. Right. Pedophile Donald Trump 00:10:21.299 --> 00:10:26.039 happened multiple felony. Yeah Yeah, and it's 00:10:26.039 --> 00:10:29.740 just I don't know you mentioned you feel like 00:10:29.740 --> 00:10:33.240 times running out. I don't It's such a clown 00:10:33.240 --> 00:10:36.580 car of a country. Yep. Oh, yeah, you know, and 00:10:36.580 --> 00:10:38.340 it's it's one of those things We're like, I don't 00:10:38.340 --> 00:10:40.879 even know if time is a factor anymore. I feel 00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:45.220 like it ran out in 2024. Yeah over you know, 00:10:45.360 --> 00:10:47.299 that was does kind of like the last taking second 00:10:47.299 --> 00:10:51.470 to to really put a stop to this fascist freight 00:10:51.470 --> 00:10:55.889 train and now it's just like we've got comedians 00:10:55.889 --> 00:11:02.090 and punk culture and music artists preaching 00:11:02.090 --> 00:11:06.769 the messages of you know community and rising 00:11:06.769 --> 00:11:10.269 up against fascism and then you've got Washington 00:11:10.269 --> 00:11:14.809 DC and all these this corporate owned news that's 00:11:14.809 --> 00:11:19.080 just you know, continuing to put coal into the 00:11:19.080 --> 00:11:21.960 fascist freight train. Yeah, oh, it does. Yeah. 00:11:21.960 --> 00:11:27.220 So, I don't know. I fear my optimism, which has 00:11:27.220 --> 00:11:30.220 always been fairly limited. I feel like it's 00:11:30.220 --> 00:11:33.820 gone. Yeah. I feel like it's gone. I think you've 00:11:33.820 --> 00:11:35.740 got to rebuild the system from the ground up 00:11:35.740 --> 00:11:40.240 because clearly, if our checks and balances can 00:11:40.240 --> 00:11:43.360 be just tossed aside with... you know, a pen 00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:46.399 and a paper. Oh, it's my 5 ,000th executive order 00:11:46.399 --> 00:11:49.580 this year. Right. Were they ever really there, 00:11:49.580 --> 00:11:53.879 or was it just an illusion, you know? So I think 00:11:53.879 --> 00:11:59.740 enjoying art while you still can and, you know, 00:11:59.820 --> 00:12:02.000 enjoying your communities while they're still 00:12:02.000 --> 00:12:05.700 healthy is important. Right. It's very important 00:12:05.700 --> 00:12:10.340 and, you know, not that time is running out on 00:12:10.340 --> 00:12:13.929 our lives. I know it is for some very unfortunate 00:12:13.929 --> 00:12:19.509 people, but it's like go out and do stuff. Go 00:12:19.509 --> 00:12:22.110 out and do stuff still. If you're cooped up in 00:12:22.110 --> 00:12:24.110 your house all day, or God forbid you're watching 00:12:24.110 --> 00:12:26.889 the news 24 -7, you're gonna be having a really 00:12:26.889 --> 00:12:30.210 bad time. Yeah, oh yeah. You're gonna fall into 00:12:30.210 --> 00:12:33.370 the trap that they've set for you. Right. And 00:12:33.370 --> 00:12:36.970 instead of letting that happen, and I'll admit 00:12:36.970 --> 00:12:39.389 it, around 9 -11 when all that shit happened, 00:12:40.029 --> 00:12:43.669 that's like everybody... At that point, if they 00:12:43.669 --> 00:12:45.850 weren't watching cable news, oh shit, we need 00:12:45.850 --> 00:12:49.470 to watch this every day. Shit is going on. And 00:12:49.470 --> 00:12:53.090 then people just got into it. But then, the powers 00:12:53.090 --> 00:12:57.389 of B, the billionaires, the theocratic assholes, 00:12:57.509 --> 00:13:00.490 all of them are like, hey, if we've got this 00:13:00.490 --> 00:13:02.909 audience sitting at home just staring at this. 00:13:03.820 --> 00:13:06.940 Why don't we plug our messages in here? Right. 00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:10.779 And brainwash the populace. Now, brainwashing 00:13:10.779 --> 00:13:13.759 doesn't work against everyone. It usually works. 00:13:14.259 --> 00:13:20.759 And I hesitate to use the word dumbest, but just 00:13:20.759 --> 00:13:24.389 those that aren't. educationally advanced as 00:13:24.389 --> 00:13:26.669 others right now there are those that have been 00:13:26.669 --> 00:13:29.610 education educated at universities or even even 00:13:29.610 --> 00:13:31.649 if you're not educated a university maybe you're 00:13:31.649 --> 00:13:33.769 just well read maybe you just decide a different 00:13:33.769 --> 00:13:35.769 path in your life you're a pipe fitter you're 00:13:35.769 --> 00:13:37.570 a truck driver you're other things but you're 00:13:37.570 --> 00:13:41.009 still well educated there's there's that group 00:13:41.009 --> 00:13:44.110 and then there's the group that that kind of 00:13:44.110 --> 00:13:47.710 gave up in grade school or high school or had 00:13:47.710 --> 00:13:50.289 broken families or whatever the case was and 00:13:50.289 --> 00:13:52.820 they just kind of gave up And then part of that 00:13:52.820 --> 00:13:56.840 giving up was just kind of that base education 00:13:56.840 --> 00:13:59.879 to understand the shit that happens around you. 00:13:59.940 --> 00:14:02.799 Or to even give a shit about it. Yeah. And then 00:14:02.799 --> 00:14:04.879 those are the ones that are susceptible to the 00:14:04.879 --> 00:14:07.460 brainwashing. Hearing a message, hearing a message, 00:14:07.580 --> 00:14:10.200 hearing a message. It's MKUltra, right? It's 00:14:10.200 --> 00:14:14.840 brainwashing. Right. And this shit started, dare 00:14:14.840 --> 00:14:17.700 I say, during the Bush era with Karl Rove. And 00:14:17.700 --> 00:14:20.980 it was just kind of designed that way. And then, 00:14:21.159 --> 00:14:23.340 you know, you're talking 10, 15, 20 years later. 00:14:23.720 --> 00:14:26.700 Now you have this entire class of people that 00:14:26.700 --> 00:14:29.159 hinge on your words and that believe everything 00:14:29.159 --> 00:14:34.879 you say. Right. And it isn't because they're 00:14:34.879 --> 00:14:38.460 bad or they're evil. They just don't know any 00:14:38.460 --> 00:14:41.580 better. Right. And that's just kind of that's 00:14:41.580 --> 00:14:44.240 just kind of the way it is. And it's scary because 00:14:44.240 --> 00:14:49.139 it's hard to undo that. Right, and the burden 00:14:49.139 --> 00:14:51.940 of re -educating these people to be like, hey, 00:14:52.059 --> 00:14:54.860 you know, immigrants aren't out to get you or 00:14:54.860 --> 00:14:59.059 steal your job. Right. The reason these people 00:14:59.059 --> 00:15:02.799 are working the jobs they are is because capitalists 00:15:02.799 --> 00:15:05.500 want to underpay someone to do the same labor. 00:15:05.720 --> 00:15:08.539 Yep. They want a profit match. And then there's 00:15:08.539 --> 00:15:11.799 an entire middle class that's like, hey, we're 00:15:11.799 --> 00:15:16.569 underpaid and you want to offer me a job? in 00:15:16.569 --> 00:15:19.009 agriculture, working the fields, helping you 00:15:19.009 --> 00:15:22.490 harvest for how much an hour? Fuck you. And they 00:15:22.490 --> 00:15:26.610 won't do it. So the Americans won't do it. So 00:15:26.610 --> 00:15:29.830 people from Honduras and El Salvador and Mexico 00:15:29.830 --> 00:15:33.289 and places like that who are starving in their 00:15:33.289 --> 00:15:35.889 countries, they're making nothing. They're like, 00:15:36.070 --> 00:15:38.970 well shit, I'll hop that wall and do that. And 00:15:38.970 --> 00:15:41.110 what do most of them do? They send a chunk of 00:15:41.110 --> 00:15:42.950 that money home because they don't make anything. 00:15:44.490 --> 00:15:50.029 So, you know, it's it's so messed up and I mean 00:15:50.029 --> 00:15:52.129 we could totally get off the rails here and I 00:15:52.129 --> 00:15:53.850 know there's other conversations we can have 00:15:53.850 --> 00:15:57.250 down the road Especially as it as it concerns 00:15:57.250 --> 00:15:59.730 the the working class, especially those in agriculture 00:15:59.730 --> 00:16:02.389 because that that is taking a major shit right 00:16:02.389 --> 00:16:06.950 now It's just important to remember, like this 00:16:06.950 --> 00:16:10.490 ride fest and other festivals and parades and, 00:16:10.509 --> 00:16:12.970 you know, we had the popcorn fest, you know, 00:16:13.289 --> 00:16:17.490 stuff like that. That's like that's the best 00:16:17.490 --> 00:16:20.110 of what we got and who we are. And that's like, 00:16:20.309 --> 00:16:22.269 that's the shit we love going to the ball game, 00:16:22.289 --> 00:16:25.409 all that kind of stuff. It's great. But those 00:16:25.409 --> 00:16:29.169 are those are moments. And it used to be a bulk 00:16:29.169 --> 00:16:31.750 of your life. And now it's not anymore. Right. 00:16:31.950 --> 00:16:35.210 Now, what used to be a bulk of happiness and 00:16:35.210 --> 00:16:37.730 contentment and, hey, I have enough money to 00:16:37.730 --> 00:16:40.309 take my family on a vacation. Hey, I have enough 00:16:40.309 --> 00:16:43.350 money to maybe get that car I've always wanted 00:16:43.350 --> 00:16:46.250 or this or that. That shit isn't happening anymore. 00:16:46.450 --> 00:16:54.669 Right. It's just not. So that is a problem. And 00:16:54.669 --> 00:16:57.110 I would like to see us get back there. But I 00:16:57.110 --> 00:17:00.610 think a lot of other shit has to change before. 00:17:00.970 --> 00:17:03.970 we get there. Right. If we ever get there again. 00:17:04.109 --> 00:17:06.710 Right, because so many of these problems have 00:17:06.710 --> 00:17:10.910 a similar root. And the root is late stage capitalism. 00:17:11.109 --> 00:17:16.210 Yeah. The root is, you know, fascist ties in 00:17:16.210 --> 00:17:20.509 the government. You know, being able to experience 00:17:20.509 --> 00:17:26.690 culture and art and sports and enjoying your 00:17:26.690 --> 00:17:30.799 recreational time. Right. And Much of our lives 00:17:30.799 --> 00:17:34.599 are being stolen away literally time of our lives 00:17:34.599 --> 00:17:39.700 stolen away valuable thing yeah for I Don't know 00:17:39.700 --> 00:17:43.400 Jeff Bezos to get a fifth yacht. I mean Yeah, 00:17:43.400 --> 00:17:46.859 that's really it mm -hmm all of the all of the 00:17:46.859 --> 00:17:49.980 wealth our labor produces gets funneled to the 00:17:49.980 --> 00:17:54.039 richest 1 % Correct yep, which means we literally 00:17:54.039 --> 00:17:59.150 have less time in our lives. Yeah, we do so Experience 00:17:59.150 --> 00:18:02.170 culture and art and sport as much as you can 00:18:02.170 --> 00:18:06.329 because that's essentially the new counterculture. 00:18:06.430 --> 00:18:09.430 Correct. It's like, I'm not going to participate 00:18:09.430 --> 00:18:14.410 in capitalism, you know? Relaxation is your right, 00:18:14.789 --> 00:18:17.990 you know? Yeah. Well, you know, it's funny. I 00:18:17.990 --> 00:18:21.430 look at your sister. Her name's Alex and she's 00:18:21.430 --> 00:18:26.569 out in Seattle. And she has a job she loves. 00:18:26.910 --> 00:18:31.289 which 90 % of us don't, let's face it. We either 00:18:31.289 --> 00:18:34.109 deal with it or we hate it. She has a job she 00:18:34.109 --> 00:18:38.130 loves, working with people she loves. And every 00:18:38.130 --> 00:18:42.849 moment outside of that, she's doing a mud run, 00:18:43.089 --> 00:18:46.210 she's climbing mountains with her dog. I mean, 00:18:46.369 --> 00:18:49.329 it's like, I look at that. Like, that's what 00:18:49.329 --> 00:18:53.329 people should aspire for, right there. That's, 00:18:53.329 --> 00:18:58.440 but... as eight and nine know her, she's mostly 00:18:58.440 --> 00:19:02.240 disconnected. Like all this other political shit 00:19:02.240 --> 00:19:04.619 and government shit and shit happening in the 00:19:04.619 --> 00:19:07.859 world, she's largely cut that off. Right. She 00:19:07.859 --> 00:19:10.559 doesn't give a shit. She cares about her people 00:19:10.559 --> 00:19:13.220 and her work. And when she's not doing that, 00:19:13.579 --> 00:19:15.579 she's off on adventures with her dog and her 00:19:15.579 --> 00:19:18.660 friends. And I think that's maybe that's the 00:19:18.660 --> 00:19:22.390 secret sauce. Right. Maybe that's it. Maybe so 00:19:22.390 --> 00:19:25.549 much of us, so many of us are like, oh, we got 00:19:25.549 --> 00:19:27.390 to fix it. We got to fix it. We got to fix it. 00:19:27.390 --> 00:19:31.230 And maybe the reality is it's unfixable. You 00:19:31.230 --> 00:19:33.289 know, Bob the Builder just drops his shit and 00:19:33.289 --> 00:19:35.569 goes, fuck it. Yeah. Walks away. He's like, this 00:19:35.569 --> 00:19:38.809 cannot be fixed. I'm outy. I'm outy. And maybe 00:19:38.809 --> 00:19:41.950 that's the case. So maybe that's the solution 00:19:41.950 --> 00:19:44.990 where you just wall yourself off from A, B, C, 00:19:44.990 --> 00:19:48.230 and D. Say, F it. I can't do anything about it. 00:19:48.329 --> 00:19:52.279 So that's that. I'm out, and these are the things 00:19:52.279 --> 00:19:54.279 I enjoy, these things bring value in my life, 00:19:54.380 --> 00:19:56.779 and I'm just gonna do it. Right. Maybe that's 00:19:56.779 --> 00:19:59.839 it. It's not a bad idea? It's not a bad idea. 00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:02.380 I mean, why does the burden of fixing or the 00:20:02.380 --> 00:20:04.900 burden of education have to fall on us? Always, 00:20:05.000 --> 00:20:06.880 right. We're already carrying the rich cunts 00:20:06.880 --> 00:20:09.640 on our back. Why does additional burden have 00:20:09.640 --> 00:20:11.859 to fall on the working class? Correct. Yeah. 00:20:12.579 --> 00:20:15.720 That's right. Interesting. Well, something to 00:20:15.720 --> 00:20:18.759 think about. And as I say, we speak about it 00:20:18.759 --> 00:20:22.460 because we care about it. But and we always will, 00:20:22.480 --> 00:20:24.640 because that's just part of what we do here. 00:20:24.799 --> 00:20:28.119 Right. But in the same vein, it's you know, you 00:20:28.119 --> 00:20:30.420 see people that are able to do that and you just 00:20:30.420 --> 00:20:34.519 think maybe maybe that's it. Maybe we've we've 00:20:34.519 --> 00:20:37.039 in caring so much and wanting to do things and 00:20:37.039 --> 00:20:40.480 speak out and do all this stuff. What's it doing? 00:20:40.779 --> 00:20:44.240 Are we fixing it? What's being done? Right. Well, 00:20:44.240 --> 00:20:47.180 they hear our voice. Okay, then what? It's not 00:20:47.180 --> 00:20:51.359 fixing anything. You're using your right to speak 00:20:51.359 --> 00:20:54.019 up about it. And then I've always asked, I've 00:20:54.019 --> 00:20:55.859 asked people that protest, I'm like, now what? 00:20:55.980 --> 00:20:58.779 What do you mean? Now what? Yeah, what's the 00:20:58.779 --> 00:21:00.980 next step? You have your sign, you've made your 00:21:00.980 --> 00:21:03.619 point, now what? Tomorrow's gonna be the same 00:21:03.619 --> 00:21:06.680 as today. And the day after tomorrow will be 00:21:06.680 --> 00:21:10.779 the same. Unless there's a next. And they haven't 00:21:10.779 --> 00:21:13.450 shown me what's next. Right. And that's just, 00:21:13.450 --> 00:21:17.609 that's sad. Yeah, I mean, if we look at how the 00:21:17.609 --> 00:21:22.329 working class in France, or recently Nepal, takes 00:21:22.329 --> 00:21:24.829 their government and says, listen, you work for 00:21:24.829 --> 00:21:27.809 us, and you aren't gonna work for us, well guess 00:21:27.809 --> 00:21:29.430 what, you don't get to be a government anymore. 00:21:30.210 --> 00:21:32.750 We'll try something new. It has to be that same 00:21:32.750 --> 00:21:37.569 way. I mean, we have to, and it's difficult as 00:21:37.569 --> 00:21:41.079 Americans because, We have so much land, and 00:21:41.079 --> 00:21:45.240 we have, what, 340 million people, and 100 million 00:21:45.240 --> 00:21:49.980 of them are these brainwashed folks that would 00:21:49.980 --> 00:21:54.200 and do bend their knee and lick the boot. And 00:21:54.200 --> 00:21:57.740 what, I mean, 240 million Americans go on a general 00:21:57.740 --> 00:22:00.259 strike. Guess what? The government's gonna crumble. 00:22:00.740 --> 00:22:03.140 The government's gonna crumble, and then we actually 00:22:03.140 --> 00:22:06.680 get a government that represents us, you know? 00:22:07.460 --> 00:22:12.450 Ideally. But it would take a level of communication 00:22:12.450 --> 00:22:17.230 and coordination that I just think, it makes 00:22:17.230 --> 00:22:19.930 you wonder if that's possible. Possible, sure. 00:22:19.950 --> 00:22:23.450 Is it probable? Is it probable? That's the big 00:22:23.450 --> 00:22:28.329 part right there. And sadly, I don't know. I'm 00:22:28.329 --> 00:22:32.829 not as excited about it. But I know what I experienced 00:22:32.829 --> 00:22:35.369 that day. And it was just kind of like, man. 00:22:35.640 --> 00:22:38.259 Like this kind of stuff should be more prevalent 00:22:38.259 --> 00:22:41.099 in all of our lives. Right. Whatever we find 00:22:41.099 --> 00:22:45.099 fun, whatever brings us joy, like all that shit 00:22:45.099 --> 00:22:48.019 should be more. And it's like, you know, the 00:22:48.019 --> 00:22:50.319 Rye Fest like monetarily costs a little bit. 00:22:50.339 --> 00:22:54.299 Sure. As festivals go, actually not too bad for 00:22:54.299 --> 00:22:56.200 like what you get and what you experience, which 00:22:56.200 --> 00:22:59.799 was pretty impressive. But there's a lot of stuff 00:22:59.799 --> 00:23:03.089 that costs nothing. Right. You can go up to a 00:23:03.089 --> 00:23:06.970 lake or an ocean and hang out for the day. You 00:23:06.970 --> 00:23:10.089 can go hiking in the woods or on some trail somewhere. 00:23:10.650 --> 00:23:12.990 Public parks. Ride your bike. There's so much 00:23:12.990 --> 00:23:16.990 to do. And so I guess I'm just advocating find 00:23:16.990 --> 00:23:19.630 a way to incorporate more of that in your life 00:23:19.630 --> 00:23:23.509 and try to take all this negative bullshit that's 00:23:23.509 --> 00:23:25.549 coming out of Washington and other politicians 00:23:25.549 --> 00:23:29.269 and stuff like that and just. try to try to build 00:23:29.269 --> 00:23:33.109 that wall. You can build that wall and the Mexicans 00:23:33.109 --> 00:23:37.670 won't pay for it. You can build that wall and 00:23:37.670 --> 00:23:41.130 just try to not saying be completely isolationist, 00:23:41.450 --> 00:23:44.829 but at least within your own bubble of your family 00:23:44.829 --> 00:23:49.440 and your friends and you. and just incorporating 00:23:49.440 --> 00:23:51.680 all those things that bring you happiness. You 00:23:51.680 --> 00:23:54.259 just have to do it because we're going down this 00:23:54.259 --> 00:23:56.700 road, and as we've just talked about, I don't 00:23:56.700 --> 00:23:59.220 know if there's any turning back or getting off 00:23:59.220 --> 00:24:02.279 that highway. I just don't see it. Don't let 00:24:02.279 --> 00:24:04.799 it live in your head rent -free, all the negativity. 00:24:05.279 --> 00:24:07.559 Right. Oh, for sure, because it will. Yeah. It 00:24:07.559 --> 00:24:09.339 will, for sure. Turn the damn television off. 00:24:09.500 --> 00:24:15.019 Right. All right. When we return, little Carpe 00:24:15.019 --> 00:24:27.980 Diem coming up. All right, we're back everybody, 00:24:28.299 --> 00:24:31.960 and it is now time for Carpe Diem. You find beautiful 00:24:31.960 --> 00:24:34.900 people. Send us your DMs and we read them on 00:24:34.900 --> 00:24:38.420 the podcast. And if it's in the form of a question, 00:24:39.359 --> 00:24:44.119 we might answer it. We may. We're not obligated. 00:24:44.279 --> 00:24:48.059 No. In any way. No. To read it. Could be coerced. 00:24:48.759 --> 00:24:51.220 We can read it and not answer it. This is also 00:24:51.220 --> 00:24:54.460 true. That would just be insulting. That would 00:24:54.460 --> 00:24:57.059 be. Which is kind of a baller move. It is kind 00:24:57.059 --> 00:24:59.319 of a baller move, and just kind of goes along 00:24:59.319 --> 00:25:01.200 with the theme of our country right now. Yeah, 00:25:01.240 --> 00:25:03.380 right. So maybe we just start reading questions 00:25:03.380 --> 00:25:05.779 and just skip to the next one. Right. Oh god, 00:25:05.880 --> 00:25:10.839 what a dick move. Yeah, anyway, yeah, so, yeah, 00:25:11.000 --> 00:25:13.059 bribes, we take them. We take them? We'll take 00:25:13.059 --> 00:25:16.079 them, we'll consider them. Couple dollars, you 00:25:16.079 --> 00:25:17.440 just want to give us your credit card, that's 00:25:17.440 --> 00:25:20.660 fine too. Right, this is true. Or we could be 00:25:20.660 --> 00:25:24.619 like Supreme Court judges and just receive Lovely 00:25:24.619 --> 00:25:28.119 gifts. Oh, for sure. Oh, yeah. Yeah, lovely gifts 00:25:28.119 --> 00:25:30.859 that definitely won't sway our opinion. Oh, not 00:25:30.859 --> 00:25:33.740 at all. Mm -hmm. Just thoughts. Just thoughts. 00:25:33.859 --> 00:25:36.500 If you wanted your DM read. Just thoughts. Just 00:25:36.500 --> 00:25:39.900 thoughts. All right, I'm gonna let Aiden, uh, 00:25:39.900 --> 00:25:41.859 you wanna go first? Sure. All right, let's do 00:25:41.859 --> 00:25:45.140 this. Yeah, man. Got some DMs here. One from 00:25:45.140 --> 00:25:48.619 Friendly Canadian. Oh, hi. Hi, Friendly. Guessing 00:25:48.619 --> 00:25:50.319 they wanted to stay anonymous. I don't blame 00:25:50.319 --> 00:25:53.660 you. No, I don't either. Musk, Thiel, Bannon, 00:25:54.019 --> 00:25:56.359 and Prince Andrew were all named in the recent 00:25:56.359 --> 00:25:59.619 Epstein File drop. What other names will you 00:25:59.619 --> 00:26:02.900 be certainly unsurprised to hear come out? Oh, 00:26:03.140 --> 00:26:07.480 that is a good question. Musk, Thiel, Bannon, 00:26:07.619 --> 00:26:10.000 and Prince Andrew, I'm not surprised about any 00:26:10.000 --> 00:26:12.140 of those, quite frankly. All right, you said 00:26:12.140 --> 00:26:14.640 Musk. What was the second one? Thiel, Peter Thiel. 00:26:14.759 --> 00:26:17.259 Peter Thiel. OK, got it, got it. Yeah, that Planeteer 00:26:17.259 --> 00:26:20.730 cocksucker. Yeah, oh yeah. Yep. Bannon and Prince 00:26:20.730 --> 00:26:22.650 Andrew, like all of that, I'm like, well yeah, 00:26:22.829 --> 00:26:27.690 duh. No kidding. I think Trump and Clinton are 00:26:27.690 --> 00:26:30.430 a no -brainer. Right. I think those two were 00:26:30.430 --> 00:26:34.190 definitely visiting the island. Who was the dude? 00:26:34.849 --> 00:26:37.650 He, oh god, he was the really like super crazy 00:26:37.650 --> 00:26:40.990 smart guy, but he was in the wheelchair. Oh yeah. 00:26:41.609 --> 00:26:44.170 Stephen Hawking. Hawking. Yeah. I think Hawking 00:26:44.170 --> 00:26:47.009 went. I think he did. Bill Gates. Bill Gates. 00:26:47.150 --> 00:26:53.200 Yeah. I think Gates went. Boy that's that's a 00:26:53.200 --> 00:26:56.680 good question and you could look at what all 00:26:56.680 --> 00:26:59.799 100 senators and probably pick 30 of them that 00:26:59.799 --> 00:27:03.259 Probably went there were a lot. I'm sure yeah, 00:27:03.259 --> 00:27:06.519 I'm sure there were a lot definitely the billionaire 00:27:06.519 --> 00:27:09.619 class for sure there was that guy if you watched 00:27:09.619 --> 00:27:16.259 the the documentary About all of this sordid 00:27:16.259 --> 00:27:21.720 craziness about Epstein, there was a guy involved 00:27:21.720 --> 00:27:24.380 in the recruitment of these young girls. I think 00:27:24.380 --> 00:27:28.480 it was a guy that used to used to run Victoria's 00:27:28.480 --> 00:27:30.680 Secret, I think. Oh, yeah, I heard about that. 00:27:30.700 --> 00:27:32.680 Forget that guy's name, but I'm pretty sure he 00:27:32.680 --> 00:27:35.960 was knee deep in that. Oh, yeah. I could even 00:27:35.960 --> 00:27:38.920 believe the lawyers that with the first Epstein 00:27:38.920 --> 00:27:41.940 case Dershowitz. I could believe that. Oh, yeah. 00:27:42.400 --> 00:27:48.799 Easily. Yeah, I think him for sure. There's probably 00:27:48.799 --> 00:27:52.480 celebrities and musicians, too, that are probably 00:27:52.480 --> 00:27:55.859 wrapped up in that. I think mentioning Kevin 00:27:55.859 --> 00:27:58.839 Spacey is like low -hanging fruit. Right. I have 00:27:58.839 --> 00:28:00.720 no evidence of that. But I mean, if we're just 00:28:00.720 --> 00:28:03.940 kind of throwing it out there, that could potentially 00:28:03.940 --> 00:28:06.619 be... Yeah, it would be unsurprising to be like, 00:28:06.740 --> 00:28:09.180 oh, he's on the list. Like, well, I believe it. 00:28:09.619 --> 00:28:13.039 Right. Diddy wouldn't surprise me. Oh, for sure. 00:28:13.359 --> 00:28:17.140 Yeah, a lot of like... music and Hollywood execs. 00:28:17.140 --> 00:28:18.740 Drake wouldn't surprise me. Sure. Yeah. Yeah. 00:28:19.480 --> 00:28:22.359 Any that you think of? No, you kind of hit the 00:28:22.359 --> 00:28:25.680 major ones. Yeah. I know there's especially like 00:28:25.680 --> 00:28:27.759 hearing stories about what happened to Kesha 00:28:27.759 --> 00:28:30.640 and plentiful other artists like that. Oh yeah. 00:28:31.240 --> 00:28:35.400 Just the music and music industry, film industry, 00:28:35.980 --> 00:28:39.559 executives, I could see all of them being involved. 00:28:39.599 --> 00:28:42.849 Yep.

I do have another DM 00:28:55.390 --> 00:28:58.289 here from Evil Genie checking in once again. 00:28:58.390 --> 00:29:01.089 What's up, Evil?

And you can make it as 00:31:29.609 --> 00:31:31.549 long as you want. Granted, I don't think I would 00:31:31.549 --> 00:31:35.160 choose to be immortal. Right because then you 00:31:35.160 --> 00:31:36.680 outlive all the people you give a shit about 00:31:36.680 --> 00:31:38.720 right, and then they're all gone. Yeah, it's 00:31:38.720 --> 00:31:42.039 like oh, yeah Okay, but if you could just live 00:31:42.039 --> 00:31:45.740 like all 80 some odd years like in your prime. 00:31:46.079 --> 00:31:48.480 Yeah, dude That's good enough for me.

It is a good 00:32:06.220 --> 00:32:10.180 question. I think, well, first off, I think bipartisanship 00:32:10.180 --> 00:32:13.279 is stupid as fuck. I think you need more than 00:32:13.279 --> 00:32:15.920 two parties. Yes. Because there's more than just 00:32:15.920 --> 00:32:18.440 two ways to think. That's like just admitting 00:32:18.440 --> 00:32:20.859 that everything in your life that can be talked 00:32:20.859 --> 00:32:24.140 about or repaired or whatever, there's only two 00:32:24.140 --> 00:32:27.640 ways to do it. That's horseshit. Right. government 00:32:27.640 --> 00:32:30.200 especially there's just people just think differently 00:32:30.200 --> 00:32:33.299 and more than just two ways or if you're in America 00:32:33.299 --> 00:32:35.460 you've got a center -right party and a far -right 00:32:35.460 --> 00:32:38.579 party and that's all you have right you know 00:32:38.579 --> 00:32:40.920 and then within the moderates you can you can 00:32:40.920 --> 00:32:44.460 split that off into two or three and then Democrats 00:32:44.460 --> 00:32:48.640 and then liberals and I mean you could potentially 00:32:48.640 --> 00:32:50.480 have seven or eight different parties right in 00:32:50.480 --> 00:32:52.900 this country and you probably should oh yeah 00:32:52.900 --> 00:32:56.210 get enough representation where everybody feels 00:32:56.210 --> 00:33:00.609 that they have representation. So that, I think, 00:33:00.750 --> 00:33:04.150 I would change. Yes. Multiple parties, which 00:33:04.150 --> 00:33:06.589 also means you'd have to do rank choice voting. 00:33:06.829 --> 00:33:09.710 Mm -hmm. Because first past the post doesn't 00:33:09.710 --> 00:33:11.950 work. Yeah. Doesn't work. You'd have to do rank 00:33:11.950 --> 00:33:16.309 choice voting. I would eliminate entirely the... 00:33:16.309 --> 00:33:18.269 Electoral college in the garbage. Electoral college 00:33:18.269 --> 00:33:22.089 goes away. I would eliminate entirely... the 00:33:22.089 --> 00:33:26.109 branch of senators um it makes no sense why wyoming 00:33:26.109 --> 00:33:28.869 has two senators and california has two senators 00:33:28.869 --> 00:33:31.609 just the house of representatives is enough yeah 00:33:31.609 --> 00:33:35.849 that's it um yeah if you eliminate the electoral 00:33:35.849 --> 00:33:39.890 college the senators rain choice voting supreme 00:33:39.890 --> 00:33:44.049 court i think there should be 12 members and 00:33:44.049 --> 00:33:48.529 it's always and it's it's always balanced, that 00:33:48.529 --> 00:33:51.329 the court needs to be balanced. So if, like for 00:33:51.329 --> 00:33:53.390 example, if a justice passed and that justice 00:33:53.390 --> 00:33:56.250 was a Democrat, for example, they get to appoint 00:33:56.250 --> 00:33:59.029 the person that takes that spot. You know, if 00:33:59.029 --> 00:34:00.930 it's a conservative and that conservative judge 00:34:00.930 --> 00:34:03.109 dies, the conservative gets to put their guy 00:34:03.109 --> 00:34:06.170 in there. I think it needs to be a balanced court 00:34:06.170 --> 00:34:12.099 with the 13th judge being A political, completely 00:34:12.099 --> 00:34:14.219 apolitical, does not give a shit about anything. 00:34:14.579 --> 00:34:16.039 So then that way if you get your ties, you have 00:34:16.039 --> 00:34:18.820 someone that actually can just look at the law 00:34:18.820 --> 00:34:22.219 and interpret the law. Because as we know, sadly, 00:34:22.940 --> 00:34:24.800 the way it's working now, it's not working. No, 00:34:24.800 --> 00:34:27.280 it's not. Because they are too much of a political 00:34:27.280 --> 00:34:30.079 slant to what they're doing. Right. That is supposed 00:34:30.079 --> 00:34:33.679 to be a non -political body. So I think I would 00:34:33.679 --> 00:34:35.679 definitely change a Supreme Court. Yeah. And 00:34:35.679 --> 00:34:37.519 how judges are nominated and that sort of stuff. 00:34:37.780 --> 00:34:40.989 That would be important. Yes. If there was a 00:34:40.989 --> 00:34:43.590 ticket, if I get to choose it, choose a ticket 00:34:43.590 --> 00:34:48.289 of president, vice president, I really liked 00:34:48.289 --> 00:34:54.090 in 2024, Claudia and Karina were the socialist 00:34:54.090 --> 00:34:56.989 party running for president. And of course, we 00:34:56.989 --> 00:35:00.250 really don't have any parties besides Republican 00:35:00.250 --> 00:35:02.210 and Democrat, but I really loved what they ran 00:35:02.210 --> 00:35:05.570 on the grassroots fundraising. All of their events 00:35:05.570 --> 00:35:11.309 were spectacular. And then I like, Adam Conover, 00:35:12.050 --> 00:35:13.869 if you're familiar with Adam Conover. I am now. 00:35:14.409 --> 00:35:17.269 He had a show, Adam Ruins Everything. Oh, okay, 00:35:17.389 --> 00:35:19.849 yep. He's, you know, he was out there striking 00:35:19.849 --> 00:35:22.210 with the Writers Guild and SAG and all that. 00:35:22.769 --> 00:35:26.329 Dude is super intelligent. Super intelligent, 00:35:26.449 --> 00:35:30.369 well spoken, knows a hell of a lot about politics. 00:35:31.070 --> 00:35:33.769 I would love to see an Adam Conover, Claudia 00:35:33.769 --> 00:35:38.389 de la Cruz ticket. That would be clean. That 00:35:38.389 --> 00:35:40.920 would be. Yeah, that would be really good. For 00:35:40.920 --> 00:35:46.960 me, I think you have to look at one of two guys 00:35:46.960 --> 00:35:50.820 for the top spot. It would either be the governor 00:35:50.820 --> 00:35:53.099 from California, or it would be Pritzker from 00:35:53.099 --> 00:35:57.119 Illinois. They're the two, so far, from the only 00:35:57.119 --> 00:35:59.960 other party, right, that have stepped up to fight 00:35:59.960 --> 00:36:02.260 the president. Like, they're the ones that are 00:36:02.260 --> 00:36:06.519 fighting, while others, are they alive? I don't 00:36:06.519 --> 00:36:08.940 know, let's do a pulse check. Right. So those 00:36:08.940 --> 00:36:11.139 two are kind of, so like one of those two, I 00:36:11.139 --> 00:36:13.179 think, would be good in that leadership role. 00:36:13.699 --> 00:36:15.519 Probably Gavin more than anybody, because let's 00:36:15.519 --> 00:36:17.440 face it, Gavin is kind of a president, because 00:36:17.440 --> 00:36:19.840 California is what, the fourth or fifth largest 00:36:19.840 --> 00:36:23.760 economy in the world on its own. So I think that 00:36:23.760 --> 00:36:27.340 would be good. As like a running mate, I would 00:36:27.340 --> 00:36:31.199 think either Buttigieg or AOC would be really 00:36:31.199 --> 00:36:35.820 good in that role. Sure. So I think that that 00:36:35.820 --> 00:36:40.690 would be enough. provided they have influence 00:36:40.690 --> 00:36:42.710 with the House of Representatives and the Senators 00:36:42.710 --> 00:36:47.130 to get shit done. To unfuck everything that's 00:36:47.130 --> 00:36:49.849 been messed up. Right. But in this idealistic 00:36:49.849 --> 00:36:52.750 scenario we've just built, there would be no 00:36:52.750 --> 00:36:54.670 Senators to fuck around with. They'd be gone. 00:36:54.750 --> 00:36:56.210 Right, they'd be gone. So it'd just be the House, 00:36:56.289 --> 00:36:57.730 which would be much more balanced anyway. Right. 00:36:57.789 --> 00:36:59.730 And you'd also need a complete redistricting 00:36:59.730 --> 00:37:03.150 of the United States of America based on population. 00:37:04.090 --> 00:37:07.809 and general area, and not based on gerrymandered 00:37:07.809 --> 00:37:10.050 bullshittery. Right, there's these districts 00:37:10.050 --> 00:37:13.829 that look like, there's one I saw the other day, 00:37:13.909 --> 00:37:15.909 it's stretched across the entire state, looked 00:37:15.909 --> 00:37:18.289 like a letter C, and then there was like a little 00:37:18.289 --> 00:37:21.030 curly Q in there. I'm like, are you kidding me 00:37:21.030 --> 00:37:24.449 right now? Right, like we're in a county in Indiana 00:37:24.449 --> 00:37:30.329 called Porter County. And it is, it used to be 00:37:30.329 --> 00:37:34.039 red, I would consider it purple -ish. these days. 00:37:35.260 --> 00:37:38.940 But they want to cut the county in half as a 00:37:38.940 --> 00:37:42.699 district. And our part would not be part of the 00:37:42.699 --> 00:37:45.460 first district, which is represented by U .S. 00:37:45.800 --> 00:37:48.480 Representative Mervan. We would actually be part 00:37:48.480 --> 00:37:51.880 of one that would have a Republican. Right. And 00:37:51.880 --> 00:37:56.199 I just think to myself, what? This redistricting 00:37:56.199 --> 00:37:58.420 shit is just, it's crazy the way they're doing 00:37:58.420 --> 00:38:00.320 it. So I think if you're gonna do it, you do 00:38:00.320 --> 00:38:03.920 it countrywide, every damn state. And you have, 00:38:03.920 --> 00:38:05.619 I don't know, some sort of organization that 00:38:05.619 --> 00:38:08.320 goes in and is in charge of it. And as you say, 00:38:08.320 --> 00:38:10.599 they look at things geographically, they try 00:38:10.599 --> 00:38:13.139 to balance things out that way. Things that are 00:38:13.139 --> 00:38:16.260 just circles and squares and simple shapes that 00:38:16.260 --> 00:38:19.380 aren't so convoluted as to, ooh, let's put this 00:38:19.380 --> 00:38:22.019 city in that district and then we'll flip it. 00:38:22.239 --> 00:38:26.099 Nah, that shit's gotta stop. Right. Yeah. An 00:38:26.099 --> 00:38:28.280 independent committee can look at it. Yeah. And 00:38:28.280 --> 00:38:31.659 then every 10 years when you're doing the census, 00:38:31.800 --> 00:38:34.760 you have them look at it again. Correct. I would 00:38:34.760 --> 00:38:38.320 agree. And that's it. Yep. Yep. That's simple. 00:38:39.159 --> 00:38:44.239 And I think it also I think you would have to 00:38:44.239 --> 00:38:48.880 raise the minimum wage tremendously. As a matter 00:38:48.880 --> 00:38:52.010 of fact, if it had gone up as executive salaries 00:38:52.010 --> 00:38:54.349 have gone up, it actually would be more like 00:38:54.349 --> 00:38:57.730 24, 25 bucks an hour. Right. Minimum wage. Right. 00:38:57.750 --> 00:39:01.949 If it tracked inflation and productivity, it 00:39:01.949 --> 00:39:05.349 would be over $30 an hour. Yeah. And here's the 00:39:05.349 --> 00:39:08.710 thing, Aidan. Why is that bad? Why is that bad 00:39:08.710 --> 00:39:12.230 to have people that do challenging physical jobs, 00:39:12.349 --> 00:39:15.329 jobs that are more in that range of what you 00:39:15.329 --> 00:39:18.030 would consider a minimum wage? Why is it bad 00:39:18.030 --> 00:39:21.280 to have them make money? They're the consumer 00:39:21.280 --> 00:39:23.480 class, and if you're a billionaire, you're a 00:39:23.480 --> 00:39:26.059 wealthy person, you own businesses, don't you 00:39:26.059 --> 00:39:28.639 want a healthy consumer class to buy your shit? 00:39:28.880 --> 00:39:31.599 Right, and the common argument from all the righties 00:39:31.599 --> 00:39:33.760 is typically like, oh, think of the small business, 00:39:33.840 --> 00:39:36.019 how are they gonna be able to pay those employees? 00:39:36.460 --> 00:39:38.400 Well, the reason small businesses fail is because 00:39:38.400 --> 00:39:41.039 your consumer class is fucking broke. Correct. 00:39:41.260 --> 00:39:43.599 That's why small businesses fail. Right. You 00:39:43.599 --> 00:39:45.199 want people to spend money at small business, 00:39:45.320 --> 00:39:48.099 they need to have money to spend. Yeah, exactly. 00:39:48.420 --> 00:39:50.400 You know, they're going on to Alibaba and they're 00:39:50.400 --> 00:39:52.260 going on to Amazon. They're going on places like 00:39:52.260 --> 00:39:54.760 that because like, oh, that dress I can buy for 00:39:54.760 --> 00:39:57.880 $18 here and have it shipped directly to me and 00:39:57.880 --> 00:39:59.940 I don't have to worry about it click. Right. 00:39:59.940 --> 00:40:04.840 And you're done. And that only exists in its 00:40:04.840 --> 00:40:06.619 way because the consumer class is struggling. 00:40:06.699 --> 00:40:09.099 So they got to look for the cheapest shit. Right. 00:40:09.719 --> 00:40:13.860 Yeah, it's absurd. Yeah. Oh, no doubt. No doubt 00:40:13.860 --> 00:40:18.659 about it. All right. Wow, that was my last DM. 00:40:18.920 --> 00:40:21.579 That was a DM. How the hell do I follow that? 00:40:21.639 --> 00:40:23.980 That almost had a taste of opening dialogue to 00:40:23.980 --> 00:40:26.219 it. It really did. It really did. Make a note. 00:40:26.460 --> 00:40:29.539 We'll follow that one in a few weeks. All right. 00:40:29.960 --> 00:40:34.559 Mine, at Glizzy Queen for life. Oh, my man. Yeah. 00:40:35.219 --> 00:40:37.900 Love you guys. Hey, did you hear that Wiener 00:40:37.900 --> 00:40:40.679 Circle gave away free glizzies because our QB 00:40:40.679 --> 00:40:43.719 won through four touchdowns. Let's go, Go Bears. 00:40:44.500 --> 00:40:47.630 I like your optimism. Yeah. The first two games 00:40:47.630 --> 00:40:50.769 of the season were not inspiring. No. But hey, 00:40:51.010 --> 00:40:52.650 a good performance is a good performance, and 00:40:52.650 --> 00:40:55.110 I can't knock that. And I love a free glizzy. 00:40:55.610 --> 00:40:58.190 No doubt. There are very few things in this world 00:40:58.190 --> 00:41:01.070 that taste better than free food. Yeah. And as 00:41:01.070 --> 00:41:07.650 it turned out, Caleb didn't go, but I don't know 00:41:07.650 --> 00:41:09.570 if his significant other or whatever brought 00:41:09.570 --> 00:41:12.250 his dog. Oh, that's fun. So his dog visited Wiener. 00:41:12.349 --> 00:41:16.460 Yeah. Yeah. So that was pretty fun. Yeah, that's 00:41:16.460 --> 00:41:20.980 great. See, that's simple shit. That's good. 00:41:21.239 --> 00:41:23.659 Chicago right there, hey? That's very Chicago. 00:41:25.920 --> 00:41:30.420 At Gordon P. Shrimpkins. Oh, no. Shrimpkins. 00:41:31.320 --> 00:41:34.760 Love your podcast, guys. I have a question. How 00:41:34.760 --> 00:41:37.900 bad would your last or first name have to be 00:41:37.900 --> 00:41:42.559 to change it, asking for a friend? I don't think 00:41:42.559 --> 00:41:45.159 you're asking for a friend. No. Mr. Sherpkins. 00:41:45.199 --> 00:41:48.840 Oh, we can't call him out like that. I... Probably 00:41:48.840 --> 00:41:51.619 not, but... It's only fair though. He's probably 00:41:51.619 --> 00:41:53.460 sitting there like, hey, I love Sherpkins. I 00:41:53.460 --> 00:41:55.260 wasn't talking about him. Trust me, I'm asking 00:41:55.260 --> 00:41:58.659 for a friend. Yeah, my friend Mr. Assface. Yeah, 00:41:58.940 --> 00:42:00.519 there was that dude, I don't know if he was a 00:42:00.519 --> 00:42:03.800 footballer or not, Dick Butt. His name was like 00:42:03.800 --> 00:42:07.179 Richard Butt. Uh -huh. Dick Butt is a pretty 00:42:07.179 --> 00:42:09.079 bad name. Oh, yeah, of course. Why would you 00:42:09.079 --> 00:42:11.079 ever shorten Richard like that? You just go by 00:42:11.079 --> 00:42:15.000 like Rich or Rick. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Yeah. 00:42:15.039 --> 00:42:18.199 So I it's not cheap to change a name legally. 00:42:18.380 --> 00:42:21.000 So it would have to be pretty bad. Oh, in my 00:42:21.000 --> 00:42:25.639 opinion. Shroomkins, that's that's rough, but 00:42:25.639 --> 00:42:29.500 it's not like terrible. Right. It's not terrible. 00:42:29.780 --> 00:42:32.639 Not the worst I've seen. Yeah. Cubs used to have 00:42:32.639 --> 00:42:38.360 a pitching coach named Dick Pole. Oh, yeah. Lions 00:42:38.360 --> 00:42:40.980 had a middle linebacker named Harry Cullen. Oh, 00:42:40.980 --> 00:42:43.139 that's rough. No, you got to change Harry Cullen. 00:42:43.340 --> 00:42:46.199 You got to change Harry Cullen. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, 00:42:46.199 --> 00:42:48.159 you can just go buy like Harrison Coltrane or 00:42:48.159 --> 00:42:50.900 something. Yeah. Or that who's that NASCAR driver? 00:42:51.239 --> 00:42:54.539 Dick Trickle. Dick Trickle. Dick Trickle. That 00:42:54.539 --> 00:42:57.099 sounds like a disease, man. That's got to get 00:42:57.099 --> 00:42:59.820 that shit checked. Oh, man. And then you've just 00:42:59.820 --> 00:43:02.679 got like absurdist names. I mean, rest his soul, 00:43:02.820 --> 00:43:06.519 but Regis Philbin. Yeah, that's crazy. You've 00:43:06.519 --> 00:43:08.039 right. There's not another person on the planet 00:43:08.039 --> 00:43:11.840 named Regis Philbin or Philbin or Philbin, right? 00:43:12.440 --> 00:43:16.360 So yeah, I mean if it's nonsensical Maybe if 00:43:16.360 --> 00:43:18.039 you've got the cash laying around but if you 00:43:18.039 --> 00:43:20.480 need to change it like like dick trickle, although 00:43:20.480 --> 00:43:22.860 I love dick trickle That's great. That is great. 00:43:23.539 --> 00:43:26.559 But yeah and Shrimpkins How would you change 00:43:26.559 --> 00:43:29.619 Shrimpkins if he wasn't asking for a friend Gordon's 00:43:29.619 --> 00:43:32.619 fine Gordon's a fine name Gordon's fine by Gordy 00:43:32.639 --> 00:43:35.219 Yeah, friends call you Gordo. Yeah. Yeah, that 00:43:35.219 --> 00:43:39.980 works. Shrimpkins. That's tough. Yeah, that's... 00:43:39.980 --> 00:43:45.559 How do you improve Shrimpkins? I'm not sure how... 00:43:45.559 --> 00:43:48.099 Yeah, I'm looking at it and I'm thinking, what 00:43:48.099 --> 00:43:50.179 could you change? You could just get rid of... 00:43:50.179 --> 00:43:53.599 You could take the kin from Shrimpkins and just 00:43:53.599 --> 00:43:56.480 put a G at the end, just go by King. Or like 00:43:56.480 --> 00:43:59.380 Gordon King. Gordon Kings. Something like that, 00:43:59.380 --> 00:44:03.590 yeah. Yeah. Or just change it to Shrimps. Shrimps, 00:44:03.710 --> 00:44:06.130 yeah. Gordon P. Shrimps. It's me, Mr. Shrimps. 00:44:06.150 --> 00:44:09.170 Come down to my Shrimp Shack.

I think 00:44:18.849 --> 00:44:21.130 that's it. Gordon P. Shrimps. Gordon will make 00:44:21.130 --> 00:44:23.500 money off that name. There you go. We're not 00:44:23.500 --> 00:44:25.519 trademarking it. You've earned this. You have 00:44:25.519 --> 00:44:28.019 definitely earned that for sure. At Franklin 00:44:28.019 --> 00:44:31.679 the Turtle. Oh, wow. Hi, guys. Why is life so 00:44:31.679 --> 00:44:34.940 hard? Bear is constantly all up in my shit and 00:44:34.940 --> 00:44:37.900 smoking my shit. What should I do? Oh, Franklin. 00:44:38.519 --> 00:44:42.039 Bro. Franklin the Turtle. Didn't expect a Franklin 00:44:42.039 --> 00:44:45.980 the Turtle DM today. Yeah. That's crazy. Oh Franklin 00:44:45.980 --> 00:44:48.340 the turtle he's out there roughing it man. Yeah. 00:44:48.679 --> 00:44:50.960 Oh, yeah. Do you remember Franklin? Yeah. Yeah. 00:44:50.960 --> 00:44:55.039 Yeah, me and Franklin go way back I bet uh God, 00:44:55.139 --> 00:44:57.920 what do you do about bear eating eating and smoking 00:44:57.920 --> 00:45:00.559 your shit? Yeah bears a bear, but I mean you 00:45:00.559 --> 00:45:02.400 can climb in your shell. You're good. This is 00:45:02.400 --> 00:45:05.039 true I mean, I guess bears climb trees too though 00:45:05.039 --> 00:45:08.800 They do and he could just like toss you you just 00:45:08.800 --> 00:45:11.070 throw it around right What do you do if you're 00:45:11.070 --> 00:45:13.230 a turtle? How many turtle friends does Frankie 00:45:13.230 --> 00:45:14.929 have? I don't think he's got many. He doesn't 00:45:14.929 --> 00:45:16.969 have a lot of friends. No. And Bear is clearly 00:45:16.969 --> 00:45:20.309 a fake friend. He is a fake friend. Yeah, he's 00:45:20.309 --> 00:45:23.130 an ass. You just move town. You know, start anew. 00:45:23.369 --> 00:45:26.170 Yep. Yeah. Yeah, you won the race against the 00:45:26.170 --> 00:45:29.170 hare, right? So you've got enough in there to 00:45:29.170 --> 00:45:32.070 get it done, I think. If you can outrun a rabbit, 00:45:32.610 --> 00:45:34.929 I think you can outrun Bear. You could definitely 00:45:34.929 --> 00:45:36.869 outrun Bear. You can get in little holes that 00:45:36.869 --> 00:45:40.159 they can't. Right. Right. We'll just need, uh, 00:45:40.219 --> 00:45:41.820 we'll need you to film it, and then we'll have, 00:45:41.820 --> 00:45:44.920 like, David Attenborough comment the whole thing. 00:45:45.119 --> 00:45:48.880 That would be amazing, by the way. As you can 00:45:48.880 --> 00:45:51.619 see here, Franklin the Turtle. Well, I don't 00:45:51.619 --> 00:45:53.980 think Attenborough's Australian, but you know 00:45:53.980 --> 00:45:57.159 what I mean. See, Franklin the Turtle goes into 00:45:57.159 --> 00:46:00.800 his hole. There, he extends his little paw and 00:46:00.800 --> 00:46:04.820 flips off Bear. Bear is very frustrated and decides 00:46:04.820 --> 00:46:09.070 to go eat his friend, Air. Bars, didn't know 00:46:09.070 --> 00:46:11.329 Attenborough had bars like that. I know, right? 00:46:11.789 --> 00:46:16.869 Crazy. Apparently he does. So, my last one, no 00:46:16.869 --> 00:46:21.070 surprise, at Stoner Stanley 420. My man. It is 00:46:21.070 --> 00:46:25.369 the Momo and Alan show. You got it, buddy. You 00:46:25.369 --> 00:46:28.070 got it. Save the day, guys, because I'm going 00:46:28.070 --> 00:46:33.389 to see you in the day. Yeah, about that. Happy 00:46:33.389 --> 00:46:37.369 times will come if you just believe. Hey, where's 00:46:37.369 --> 00:46:40.489 my remote? Oh, man. Are we on his television? 00:46:41.409 --> 00:46:44.530 Why is he looking for the remote in a van? Oh, 00:46:44.610 --> 00:46:49.130 yeah. Does he get cable in there? He must. He's 00:46:49.130 --> 00:46:50.869 got that van life for sure. He's pretty resourceful 00:46:50.869 --> 00:46:53.989 for a super high dude. Right. Unless he just 00:46:53.989 --> 00:46:56.309 like depending what strain he's on he could just 00:46:56.309 --> 00:46:58.510 be staring at the inside of the panel van Just 00:46:58.510 --> 00:47:00.750 like holding a remote just looking at the panel 00:47:00.750 --> 00:47:04.010 Right. I hate this show. So for the last couple 00:47:04.010 --> 00:47:06.130 of hours He's had this remote in his hand and 00:47:06.130 --> 00:47:07.949 now that he's kind of level he's like where did 00:47:07.949 --> 00:47:10.989 that remote go? Right, right. I get it. Aye -aye 00:47:10.989 --> 00:47:14.050 -aye That's why you don't do edibles. No, no 00:47:14.050 --> 00:47:17.570 you cannot you absolutely cannot You know what 00:47:17.570 --> 00:47:21.329 you stoner you you have a day yourself Yeah, 00:47:21.550 --> 00:47:24.550 absolutely. We'll see you in the day. No doubt. 00:47:24.710 --> 00:47:30.469 No doubt about it. That brings us to the other 00:47:30.469 --> 00:47:34.309 foods. And that is a segment where Aidan scours 00:47:34.309 --> 00:47:38.989 the planet for, oh, I don't know, the most disgusting, 00:47:39.429 --> 00:47:43.840 vile Foods shouldn't be foods probably yeah in 00:47:43.840 --> 00:47:47.719 the world and last week. He was he was in Sweden 00:47:47.719 --> 00:47:50.900 Yeah, he brought his clogs played a little hockey 00:47:50.900 --> 00:47:53.980 and and came up with some really vile things 00:47:53.980 --> 00:47:56.619 And I'm kind of wondering what he's got for us 00:47:56.619 --> 00:47:58.659 today, right? How do you how do you follow up 00:47:58.659 --> 00:48:01.880 Sweden? Oh god? I don't know what the blood pancakes 00:48:01.880 --> 00:48:03.920 or whatever the shit. Yeah, right God that was 00:48:03.920 --> 00:48:07.429 gross. Well today I went to A European country 00:48:07.429 --> 00:48:09.949 again. Oh, very good. Perhaps one of the nastiest. 00:48:10.030 --> 00:48:15.150 Wow. England. Okay, that's fair. So we're looking 00:48:15.150 --> 00:48:17.590 at British food here on the other foods. I've 00:48:17.590 --> 00:48:21.269 got a couple lovely sounding dishes. Starting 00:48:21.269 --> 00:48:27.389 off with jellied eels. Oh. Jellied eels, a traditional 00:48:27.389 --> 00:48:30.329 dish for London's poor that originated in the 00:48:30.329 --> 00:48:33.570 18th century. Eels, then abundant in the River 00:48:33.570 --> 00:48:37.530 Times, were boiled. Into a stock and since the 00:48:37.530 --> 00:48:39.809 fish are naturally gelatinous They were simply 00:48:39.809 --> 00:48:43.730 allowed to cool and set in their own jelly to 00:48:43.730 --> 00:48:47.730 be enjoyed no Yeah, the the images are fantastic 00:48:47.730 --> 00:48:52.409 looking no that no. It's foul right? That's no 00:48:52.409 --> 00:48:54.369 yeah. I would almost not want to visit the country 00:48:54.369 --> 00:48:57.110 based on this I that's really would completely 00:48:57.110 --> 00:49:02.730 agree. Oh next up. We've got a fish curry ice 00:49:02.730 --> 00:49:06.840 cream Oh, come on. Yeah. And this one goes way 00:49:06.840 --> 00:49:09.039 back. They've got a whole... I'm on the Good 00:49:09.039 --> 00:49:13.059 Food blog. They have a whole paragraph of the 00:49:13.059 --> 00:49:16.639 history of this fish curry ice cream. A fellow 00:49:16.639 --> 00:49:21.920 named Agnes Marshall, in the Victorian era, was 00:49:21.920 --> 00:49:25.300 publishing numerous ice cream recipe books. Apparently 00:49:25.300 --> 00:49:30.329 that did very well. She had successful recipes 00:49:30.329 --> 00:49:33.969 like strawberry banana and cucumber ice creams, 00:49:34.230 --> 00:49:40.630 except for this one, which would be fish curry 00:49:40.630 --> 00:49:46.429 ice cream, which yes is iced cream with onion, 00:49:47.010 --> 00:49:52.730 sour apple, coconut almonds, herbs, fish, and 00:49:52.730 --> 00:49:56.510 curry paste. Like you had me until the last two 00:49:56.510 --> 00:49:59.139 items. Right like you could have stopped right 00:49:59.139 --> 00:50:01.840 there, and I'd been like I'll try that yeah like 00:50:01.840 --> 00:50:07.179 like a savory iced Cream like okay sure no yeah, 00:50:07.360 --> 00:50:09.219 they had to put the fish and the curry paste 00:50:09.219 --> 00:50:13.860 in there the whole thing is pureed and here's 00:50:13.860 --> 00:50:17.280 and then they add whipped cream on top and Garnish 00:50:17.280 --> 00:50:25.000 it with prawns No, yeah Yeah, good God a Bad 00:50:25.000 --> 00:50:28.690 time it's a bad time That's not good. The final 00:50:28.690 --> 00:50:32.130 British food, if you will, this is food in air 00:50:32.130 --> 00:50:35.369 quotes, is this little thing called snail water. 00:50:36.329 --> 00:50:40.469 Okay. Found abundantly in our gardens, quote 00:50:40.469 --> 00:50:42.590 unquote, it's no surprise that at some point 00:50:42.590 --> 00:50:46.449 we tried to eat snails. Hey, not me. But not 00:50:46.449 --> 00:50:48.789 in the sophisticated French way, although fuck 00:50:48.789 --> 00:50:51.650 the French, am I right? British recipes from 00:50:51.650 --> 00:50:54.610 the 18th century describe a thing called snail 00:50:54.610 --> 00:50:59.119 water. which meant distilling snails in milk 00:50:59.119 --> 00:51:02.800 or wine and adding other ingredients like raisins 00:51:02.800 --> 00:51:06.699 or rose water or crushed earthworms. If you're 00:51:06.699 --> 00:51:09.900 interested in in snail water with crushed earthworms, 00:51:10.260 --> 00:51:12.500 unsurprisingly, this dish wasn't consumed for 00:51:12.500 --> 00:51:15.059 pleasure, but rather acted as a remedy against 00:51:15.059 --> 00:51:17.860 consumption and other respiratory illnesses. 00:51:18.320 --> 00:51:23.480 Oh God. Oh God. What the hell? Snail water. Snail 00:51:23.480 --> 00:51:26.199 water goes a little crazy, I think. That really 00:51:26.199 --> 00:51:29.559 does. Dude, what the hell? Yeah. Well, you know, 00:51:29.559 --> 00:51:31.679 when you think about it, isn't that the same 00:51:31.679 --> 00:51:33.980 country that has that thing called Spotted Dick? 00:51:34.639 --> 00:51:37.440 Oh, yeah. That is a British thing, isn't it? 00:51:37.599 --> 00:51:41.559 I believe it is. They've got some nasty shit. 00:51:41.739 --> 00:51:45.079 Yeah. They really do. But from what I hear, and 00:51:45.079 --> 00:51:47.480 I have not been there, so I'm not going to pretend 00:51:47.480 --> 00:51:51.260 like I have, they're not known for their food. 00:51:51.579 --> 00:51:55.340 The Brits are just known for their food or culture 00:51:55.340 --> 00:52:03.780 or Culture or sports or sports, you know, they 00:52:03.780 --> 00:52:07.400 play soccer They rarely beat that. Yeah, they 00:52:07.400 --> 00:52:10.400 even invented the word soccer They did which 00:52:10.400 --> 00:52:12.760 they then abandoned which they then abandoned 00:52:12.760 --> 00:52:14.679 because the Americans like soccer and then they're 00:52:14.679 --> 00:52:19.940 like Hey there, mate. Let's not do that Americans 00:52:19.940 --> 00:52:23.980 using side Football. Football. And then we're 00:52:23.980 --> 00:52:26.199 like, hey, wait a minute. Wait, wait, wait, wait. 00:52:26.320 --> 00:52:29.260 We already do football. We did that one. You 00:52:29.260 --> 00:52:33.619 freaks. Oh my god. Yeah. But wow, that's. Lovely 00:52:33.619 --> 00:52:37.400 British food. Lovely British food. And then it 00:52:37.400 --> 00:52:40.920 brings me to some lovely American food, French 00:52:40.920 --> 00:52:45.119 fries. This is the Fry Guy Fry review for this 00:52:45.119 --> 00:52:49.940 week. And. I visited something known for their 00:52:49.940 --> 00:52:54.739 ice cream, not their fish curry ice cream by 00:52:54.739 --> 00:52:59.039 any stretch. Or snail water. Dairy Queen, very 00:52:59.039 --> 00:53:03.039 American, and maybe just mostly the Midwest. 00:53:03.219 --> 00:53:05.559 I'm not sure if they're all over. But at any 00:53:05.559 --> 00:53:09.820 rate, Dairy Queen is kind of the preeminent ice 00:53:09.820 --> 00:53:14.940 cream shop and has blizzards and ice cream cones 00:53:14.940 --> 00:53:18.559 and sundaes and dilly bars. Dilly bars. Oh, yeah. 00:53:19.500 --> 00:53:23.340 Mmm, dilly bars. Those peanut buster bars? The 00:53:23.340 --> 00:53:25.559 peanut buster parfaits and all that shit. That's 00:53:25.559 --> 00:53:27.880 crazy. God, that's good. I want ice cream now. 00:53:28.159 --> 00:53:32.179 Anyway, not the fish one. Yeah, right. So, but 00:53:32.179 --> 00:53:34.840 they're... They used to have Dairy Queens. They'd 00:53:34.840 --> 00:53:36.380 just be those little huts with the ice cream. 00:53:36.699 --> 00:53:38.760 And then there'd be bigger Dairy Queens. They'd 00:53:38.760 --> 00:53:40.860 be called the Brazer. They don't call them Brazers 00:53:40.860 --> 00:53:42.699 anymore. It's the grill and chill. But that was 00:53:42.699 --> 00:53:44.599 kind of the grill and chill. So you could go 00:53:44.599 --> 00:53:47.320 in and get a burger or a dog. And then the ice 00:53:47.320 --> 00:53:50.920 cream, of course. And so they have French fries. 00:53:51.920 --> 00:53:55.719 And I thought, well, let's see what DQ has in 00:53:55.719 --> 00:53:58.690 the fry game. Now, there's something that accompanies 00:53:58.690 --> 00:54:00.809 the fries, and this is part of the whole thing, 00:54:00.849 --> 00:54:04.510 right? You have to kind of grade the fry on the 00:54:04.510 --> 00:54:08.750 fry. But when you order, they have chicken tendies 00:54:08.750 --> 00:54:11.130 at these Dairy Queens too, which are pretty good. 00:54:11.130 --> 00:54:14.449 Pretty good tendies. But what you do, like most 00:54:14.449 --> 00:54:16.050 time people get tendies, what do you get? You 00:54:16.050 --> 00:54:19.190 get barbecue sauce, you get honey mustard. Yeah. 00:54:19.510 --> 00:54:21.130 That's the kind of stuff you dip it in, right? 00:54:21.349 --> 00:54:25.550 Sometimes ranch. At Dairy Queen, you ask for... 00:54:25.369 --> 00:54:29.789 Gravy. Gravy. Yeah. You dip those fries in that 00:54:29.789 --> 00:54:33.849 gravy, it will transport you to a place. I'm 00:54:33.849 --> 00:54:36.130 not sure where it is, but it transports you to 00:54:36.130 --> 00:54:41.630 a place of just joy and wonder. Bliss on tap. 00:54:41.750 --> 00:54:44.750 Bliss on tap. There you go. It's like theme of 00:54:44.750 --> 00:54:46.829 the day. Yeah, you're halfway to poutine at that 00:54:46.829 --> 00:54:50.329 point. You really are. And the gravy is so flippin' 00:54:50.449 --> 00:54:56.679 good. But the fry stands on its own. Not as thin 00:54:56.679 --> 00:55:00.000 as like a McDonald's or Steak and Shake fry, 00:55:00.639 --> 00:55:03.280 but it's a little bit thicker of a shoestring 00:55:03.280 --> 00:55:09.079 and they're hot and they're good. And I got to 00:55:09.079 --> 00:55:11.460 the realization, and once again, I know the gravy 00:55:11.460 --> 00:55:15.280 was swaying me. Oh yeah. That this fry might 00:55:15.280 --> 00:55:19.860 be in or near the elite fry category, which is 00:55:19.860 --> 00:55:22.559 nobody would think Dairy Queen. Sure. But Dairy 00:55:22.559 --> 00:55:25.659 Queen, it's the real deal. And it got to the 00:55:25.659 --> 00:55:28.239 point where I'm like, do I put it in the rarefied 00:55:28.239 --> 00:55:33.820 air into the nines? Do I go that far? And I decided 00:55:33.820 --> 00:55:41.280 no. Oh, I see. 8 .9. I gave it an 8 .9. I couldn't 00:55:41.280 --> 00:55:44.860 get it there, but it's damn close to being elite. 00:55:44.980 --> 00:55:47.519 Yeah. Highest of the 80s. Or as we would tier 00:55:47.519 --> 00:55:49.780 list. Yeah. Exactly. You know, McDonald's is 00:55:49.780 --> 00:55:51.920 in that tier list. And I'll have to go back through 00:55:51.920 --> 00:55:54.880 my notes and kind of. kind of see where we're 00:55:54.880 --> 00:55:57.099 at with a lot of these grades and where they 00:55:57.099 --> 00:55:59.820 line up, it'd be cool. Maybe even as like an 00:55:59.820 --> 00:56:02.719 actual year end show to kind of go back and look 00:56:02.719 --> 00:56:05.199 at some lists. Right. Like I think that's always 00:56:05.199 --> 00:56:07.780 fun to do around the end of the year. So maybe 00:56:07.780 --> 00:56:11.460 I will. I'll go back and just kind of see where 00:56:11.460 --> 00:56:13.280 we are with our fry ranking. Yeah, that'd be 00:56:13.280 --> 00:56:15.900 good. Yeah, no doubt. But eight, nine, very, 00:56:16.000 --> 00:56:19.400 very good fry for sure. So don't you're a dairy 00:56:19.400 --> 00:56:20.980 queen. You're getting yourself a Sunday or a 00:56:20.980 --> 00:56:23.869 blizzard. Hey. Get a side of fries with some 00:56:23.869 --> 00:56:26.010 gravy. You will not be disappointed. Don't sleep 00:56:26.010 --> 00:56:29.110 on them. Do not sleep on it. All right. We're 00:56:29.110 --> 00:56:32.909 going to hit our next break. We come back. You 00:56:32.909 --> 00:56:46.889 just made the list. Top 10 debut albums. All 00:56:46.889 --> 00:56:49.150 right, we're back, everybody, and it is time 00:56:49.150 --> 00:56:51.710 for our feature segment. You just made the list 00:56:51.710 --> 00:56:54.090 right here on the Mark Mo Show podcast. I am 00:56:54.090 --> 00:56:57.369 your host, Mark Maloney, alongside Ada Maloney, 00:56:57.670 --> 00:57:01.510 my co -host and producer on the show. And this 00:57:01.510 --> 00:57:05.289 week we've really been music focused on our top 00:57:05.289 --> 00:57:08.369 10 list because, well, quite frankly, there wasn't 00:57:08.369 --> 00:57:11.489 a lot of music in the show and we love frickin 00:57:11.489 --> 00:57:15.329 music. And obviously, even though There's no 00:57:15.329 --> 00:57:19.429 FCC that monitors how we create things if you 00:57:19.429 --> 00:57:22.570 do anything with like TV shows movies music Anything 00:57:22.570 --> 00:57:24.869 like that you get copyright claims and then things 00:57:24.869 --> 00:57:27.929 just get messy So sadly we can't share music 00:57:27.929 --> 00:57:31.030 as we would probably love to be able to do right 00:57:31.030 --> 00:57:34.949 So we're gonna do it in other ways and the top 00:57:34.949 --> 00:57:37.210 10 list. I think was a good way a good way to 00:57:37.210 --> 00:57:40.150 do that Yeah, so this week we're doing debut 00:57:40.150 --> 00:57:44.630 albums And once again, I like to keep things 00:57:44.630 --> 00:57:46.670 kind of open. We could have done metal debut 00:57:46.670 --> 00:57:49.570 albums or rap debut albums or anything. We could 00:57:49.570 --> 00:57:51.590 have done country. Now, we probably wouldn't 00:57:51.590 --> 00:57:54.349 have done. Yeah, but we could have like been 00:57:54.349 --> 00:57:57.110 genre specific. And instead of doing that, I'm 00:57:57.110 --> 00:57:59.590 like, nope, let's just throw it out there. Debut 00:57:59.590 --> 00:58:03.010 albums, period. End of fricking sentence. It's 00:58:03.010 --> 00:58:05.239 tough. It's tough. It's supposed to be a top 00:58:05.239 --> 00:58:09.000 10 list. I may have a lengthy honorable mentions. 00:58:09.000 --> 00:58:10.800 Uh -oh. Now, wait a minute. Wait a minute. Is 00:58:10.800 --> 00:58:13.380 that against the rules? Wait a minute. We go 00:58:13.380 --> 00:58:15.460 10 through 2 with our big number one reveal. 00:58:15.900 --> 00:58:20.659 And let's hang on. Let me look to page 8, subsection 00:58:20.659 --> 00:58:23.860 C. Oh, no. There are no rules. Oh, thank God. 00:58:24.059 --> 00:58:26.079 There are no rules. How about that? So you lucked 00:58:26.079 --> 00:58:28.340 out. That's excellent. Yeah. I was stressing 00:58:28.340 --> 00:58:31.800 about that for a little bit. You are good, for 00:58:31.800 --> 00:58:35.679 sure. What I'll do, since I just have 10, I literally 00:58:35.679 --> 00:58:38.900 got to my 10 and I closed my MacBook and I said, 00:58:38.960 --> 00:58:40.820 nope. Smart move. I'm not going down the list. 00:58:40.920 --> 00:58:44.300 We've done this in the... This is funny. Back 00:58:44.300 --> 00:58:48.099 when this was a different kind of show and we 00:58:48.099 --> 00:58:50.579 were on a radio station here in Valparaiso, Indiana, 00:58:51.159 --> 00:58:55.519 we had won the greatest intercontinental champions 00:58:55.519 --> 00:59:00.119 of all time. for like WWF slash WWE. Now there's 00:59:00.119 --> 00:59:03.139 been probably a hundred different intercontinental 00:59:03.139 --> 00:59:05.480 champions. Well, we used to have a co -host, 00:59:05.619 --> 00:59:07.820 his name is Kevin, or if you're Stoner Stanley, 00:59:07.960 --> 00:59:12.860 it's Kevam. Yeah. He, if he had won, he had 40. 00:59:12.940 --> 00:59:15.019 Right. Oh yeah. I mean, he just, I'm like, what 00:59:15.019 --> 00:59:19.139 are we doing? You listed all of them. I mean, 00:59:19.260 --> 00:59:21.460 like what Aiden did here today is probably the 00:59:21.460 --> 00:59:24.840 max -ish. Yeah, approaching what is acceptable. 00:59:24.860 --> 00:59:28.519 After that, it's just like, you know... I don't 00:59:28.519 --> 00:59:30.559 know, you know, if you're doing your top 10 quarterbacks 00:59:30.559 --> 00:59:33.039 and you're like, well my honorable mentions, 00:59:33.079 --> 00:59:37.099 I have 47 of them. You know, I don't think Mike 00:59:37.099 --> 00:59:40.079 Pagel gets enough. It's like, no, no, you need 00:59:40.079 --> 00:59:44.400 to stop now. And yeah, so I think this will be 00:59:44.400 --> 00:59:46.079 good. I'm going to start with mine since I only 00:59:46.079 --> 00:59:48.699 have 10. I'll go 10 through two. And I'm going 00:59:48.699 --> 00:59:52.539 to let Aidan rip and roar on his honorable mentions, 00:59:52.659 --> 00:59:55.019 which I'm sure I'll kick myself in the ass for 00:59:55.019 --> 01:00:00.380 many of those. Number 10, Illmatic by Nas. It's 01:00:00.380 --> 01:00:04.199 a great one. That's a great debut. For number 01:00:04.199 --> 01:00:07.659 nine, Kill 'em All by Metallica, I think is outstanding. 01:00:08.340 --> 01:00:11.539 Production, slightly rough, but it was at that 01:00:11.539 --> 01:00:14.280 time anyway. You get a lot of debut albums from 01:00:14.280 --> 01:00:18.300 metal bands that the production quality is slightly 01:00:18.300 --> 01:00:20.599 rough, but it's still an excellent album. Right. 01:00:21.179 --> 01:00:23.710 Number eight. Even though it's a band I'm very 01:00:23.710 --> 01:00:26.530 meh about, I still appreciate their musicianship 01:00:26.530 --> 01:00:28.190 and what they've done in their career. Weezer 01:00:28.190 --> 01:00:30.769 Weezer. Yeah. Number eight. The Blue Album. I 01:00:30.769 --> 01:00:33.750 think you gotta put it up there. Number seven, 01:00:33.889 --> 01:00:36.610 are you experienced by the Jimi Hendrix experience? 01:00:36.949 --> 01:00:39.369 Oh, that's a good one. Obviously his career was 01:00:39.369 --> 01:00:42.710 cut way, way, way too short. But for a debut, 01:00:43.130 --> 01:00:46.710 man, he killed it. Number six Boston Boston just 01:00:46.710 --> 01:00:49.130 kind of one of those late 70s early 80s arena 01:00:49.130 --> 01:00:53.909 bands and that first The first album has like 01:00:53.909 --> 01:00:56.550 five or six absolute bangers on it. So it's it's 01:00:56.550 --> 01:00:59.369 just great Number five straight out of Compton. 01:00:59.369 --> 01:01:02.949 Oh, yeah NWA These are the dudes that set it 01:01:02.949 --> 01:01:06.949 off. They they literally the whole quote -unquote 01:01:06.949 --> 01:01:10.949 gangster rap Which once again, it's it's how 01:01:10.949 --> 01:01:14.079 the community was communicating to the rest of 01:01:14.079 --> 01:01:16.519 the world through these artists. Through art. 01:01:17.400 --> 01:01:20.420 And it's not only is it a great debut album, 01:01:20.760 --> 01:01:24.000 it's history, in my opinion. Yeah. Number four, 01:01:24.179 --> 01:01:27.539 Ramones, Ramones. Without question, that's just 01:01:27.539 --> 01:01:30.559 loaded with all songs that you guys know. Number 01:01:30.559 --> 01:01:34.059 three, Black Sabbath, Black Sabbath. Fantastic. 01:01:34.559 --> 01:01:36.860 It's just some of those lyrics and songs are 01:01:36.860 --> 01:01:39.980 just haunting. The title track, just a classic. 01:01:40.699 --> 01:01:43.800 I love it. And then number two, which is where 01:01:43.800 --> 01:01:48.159 I'll stop, Appetite for Destruction, GNR. Yeah. 01:01:48.699 --> 01:01:52.019 It was at a time where... we were in a transition. 01:01:52.639 --> 01:01:54.860 So we had all this hair metal and then bands 01:01:54.860 --> 01:01:56.699 that weren't technically hair metal but everybody 01:01:56.699 --> 01:01:58.460 kind of just grabbed a shovel and put them in 01:01:58.460 --> 01:02:00.980 there anyway. And then hair metal was kind of 01:02:00.980 --> 01:02:03.380 running its course and then grunge was coming 01:02:03.380 --> 01:02:07.579 up and it left a lot of good just hard rock bands 01:02:07.579 --> 01:02:09.900 like oh my god where do we fit in because we're 01:02:09.900 --> 01:02:13.079 not really either one so like tesla for example 01:02:13.079 --> 01:02:14.639 and there are a couple other bands that were 01:02:14.639 --> 01:02:16.579 kind of like it g and r are one of those bands 01:02:16.579 --> 01:02:18.960 yeah they are just a down and dirty hard rock 01:02:18.960 --> 01:02:22.119 band and it was like where do we fit in and to 01:02:22.119 --> 01:02:24.739 their answer we don't give a shit right here's 01:02:24.739 --> 01:02:26.940 this album and it just blew everybody away yep 01:02:26.940 --> 01:02:29.260 once again when you got those albums that are 01:02:29.260 --> 01:02:32.780 just you know Top to bottom, front to back.

Then do my tenth or two. 01:02:49.500 --> 01:02:51.679 So wouldn't be fair if I didn't mention Core 01:02:51.679 --> 01:02:54.139 by Stone Temple Pilots. Oh, that's good.

Yeah. 01:03:21.949 --> 01:03:23.929 Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not 01:03:23.929 --> 01:03:28.079 by The Arctic Monkeys. I knew it. Yeah, that 01:03:28.079 --> 01:03:30.619 was a pretty good one. That's good. Gorillaz 01:03:30.619 --> 01:03:34.019 Gorillaz. Yeah. That popped off.

I mean, you didn't do honorable 01:03:53.760 --> 01:03:55.800 mentions list though, so I'm sure it would have 01:03:55.800 --> 01:03:58.719 been on there. Number eight, I'd Black Sabbath, 01:03:58.840 --> 01:04:02.139 Black Sabbath. Yeah. Number seven, Ramones, Ramones. 01:04:02.539 --> 01:04:05.519 Number six, I'd Illmatic by Nas.

Number three, I had Man on the Moon 01:04:19.119 --> 01:04:23.760 by Kid Cudi. Just a great album. And number two, 01:04:24.039 --> 01:04:26.820 straight out of Compton, NWA. There you go, I 01:04:26.820 --> 01:04:30.320 love it. Huge. It brings me to my number one, 01:04:30.480 --> 01:04:32.400 which I think Aiden had on his honorable mention 01:04:32.400 --> 01:04:35.380 list, which is the first Led Zeppelin album. 01:04:36.239 --> 01:04:40.880 I think, complete opinion, but I think that was 01:04:40.880 --> 01:04:44.380 the beginning of what would be hard rock and 01:04:44.380 --> 01:04:49.130 metal. A lot of people harken back to... Motorhead 01:04:49.130 --> 01:04:53.730 and and some other bands and artists and and 01:04:53.730 --> 01:04:57.010 say that like that was the first one like oh 01:04:57.010 --> 01:05:00.630 I see where this is going right but I really 01:05:00.630 --> 01:05:04.030 feel like Led Zeppelin was that band with how 01:05:04.030 --> 01:05:07.530 they wrote music their lead guitar Bonham just 01:05:07.530 --> 01:05:10.829 amazing yeah you know where it was like oh Yeah, 01:05:10.849 --> 01:05:13.429 we're taking this amp and we're turning up to 01:05:13.429 --> 01:05:16.969 11. Like, that was it for me. And the beautiful 01:05:16.969 --> 01:05:19.889 part of this is just they weren't just like this 01:05:19.889 --> 01:05:23.969 hard rock band. Very bluesy, very bluesy band, 01:05:24.329 --> 01:05:28.010 like blues heavy and like dazed and confused. 01:05:28.289 --> 01:05:31.010 I've been dazed and confused for so long, it's 01:05:31.010 --> 01:05:34.170 not true. Yeah. We're gonna stop. Yeah, can't 01:05:34.170 --> 01:05:37.550 get content ID. Yeah, I mean, I'm not going there. 01:05:38.630 --> 01:05:42.099 Just... Great fricking songs. Babe, I'm gonna 01:05:42.099 --> 01:05:48.019 leave you. Fantastic. Just great. And just an 01:05:48.019 --> 01:05:54.179 amazing debut album. Just fantastic. You could 01:05:54.179 --> 01:05:56.719 say they popped off with that one. Oh, they did. 01:05:56.760 --> 01:06:00.360 Oh yeah. They did for sure. And of course, I 01:06:00.360 --> 01:06:03.900 think Elite Stardom... Probably didn't occur 01:06:03.900 --> 01:06:06.139 until the fourth album with Stairway and other 01:06:06.139 --> 01:06:09.400 things. Oh, yeah black dog all that so I think 01:06:09.400 --> 01:06:12.500 I think their stardom maybe came a little bit 01:06:12.500 --> 01:06:15.900 later, but I think this was like Man, what a 01:06:15.900 --> 01:06:18.769 start. Yeah What a start. Anybody that heard 01:06:18.769 --> 01:06:21.449 that for the first time had to... I would love 01:06:21.449 --> 01:06:22.789 that. If you had a time machine just to fuck 01:06:22.789 --> 01:06:24.409 around and it's like, okay, you can go back, 01:06:24.550 --> 01:06:26.190 experience things, but you can't mess up anything. 01:06:26.710 --> 01:06:30.510 I would probably want to go back to this time 01:06:30.510 --> 01:06:33.090 and be with people in a line at a record store, 01:06:33.510 --> 01:06:35.110 getting this album and hanging out with people, 01:06:35.110 --> 01:06:38.389 hearing that for the first time, because I can't. 01:06:38.389 --> 01:06:40.750 I can't get those chills anymore. I can't do 01:06:40.750 --> 01:06:43.329 it. And there's so many albums we can't do that 01:06:43.329 --> 01:06:48.110 with anymore. And so... I would love to just 01:06:48.110 --> 01:06:51.030 be with people when they just like they and You 01:06:51.030 --> 01:06:53.070 know, it was vinyl So like putting that record 01:06:53.070 --> 01:06:54.989 on the turntable and just hitting it and just 01:06:54.989 --> 01:06:57.530 watching people lose their right be like, oh 01:06:57.530 --> 01:07:00.449 my god What is this? Yeah? That would be knowing 01:07:00.449 --> 01:07:02.369 what I know and just be like these guys are gonna 01:07:02.369 --> 01:07:05.050 be the greatest. I'm right, right Yeah, that 01:07:05.050 --> 01:07:07.610 is wonderful. It's great man. Love it. Love that 01:07:07.610 --> 01:07:10.269 album. I Completely understand why it gets the 01:07:10.269 --> 01:07:12.809 number one spot. Oh, yeah for me, but like I 01:07:12.809 --> 01:07:14.690 said, that's why that's why this show so great 01:07:15.199 --> 01:07:18.500 because, you know, you have a younger generation 01:07:18.500 --> 01:07:20.579 perspective on different things. Yours was a 01:07:20.579 --> 01:07:22.280 lot more hip -hop heavy than mine was, but I 01:07:22.280 --> 01:07:23.940 didn't do an honorable mention either. Sure, 01:07:24.099 --> 01:07:29.019 this is true. But, yeah, I'm very interested 01:07:29.019 --> 01:07:32.920 to see what your number one is, because I don't 01:07:32.920 --> 01:07:36.199 think it's on any of mine. No, my numero uno 01:07:36.199 --> 01:07:42.380 gotta be 10 by Pearl Jam. Oh, God. That is such 01:07:42.380 --> 01:07:45.679 a baller debut album. yeah just hit after hit 01:07:45.679 --> 01:07:50.539 and it's it's just i don't know it's grungy it's 01:07:50.539 --> 01:07:53.920 it's it's rocking jeremy's on there isn't yeah 01:07:53.920 --> 01:08:04.320 even flow even flow on a one butterfly whatever 01:08:04.320 --> 01:08:07.309 i don't know Whatever you're talking about. Yeah, 01:08:07.409 --> 01:08:11.110 it's fine. Go get him, Eddie. My man. My man. 01:08:11.230 --> 01:08:15.070 That is a great album. Yes. Yeah. And that was 01:08:15.070 --> 01:08:17.430 a weird time. I was a hard rock. I was a hair 01:08:17.430 --> 01:08:20.130 metal dude, thrash metal. That was all my shit 01:08:20.130 --> 01:08:22.590 that I really loved. And then this grunge came 01:08:22.590 --> 01:08:25.789 in and I had this opinion about it. Like, oh, 01:08:25.890 --> 01:08:29.149 these... Fuckers killed my music and that was 01:08:29.149 --> 01:08:32.470 kind of my opinion and so I listened to it But 01:08:32.470 --> 01:08:34.670 didn't really listen to it the only grunge album 01:08:34.670 --> 01:08:37.850 in my or I should say CD Yeah in my collection 01:08:37.850 --> 01:08:40.550 was done. That was the only one I had I didn't 01:08:40.550 --> 01:08:42.569 want to deal with the rest of it, but then as 01:08:42.569 --> 01:08:45.779 time went by You know, I went and got an STP 01:08:45.779 --> 01:08:49.579 album and then I went and got Alice in Chains 01:08:49.579 --> 01:08:52.659 and Soundgarden. Yeah. And somebody's like, oh, 01:08:52.899 --> 01:08:54.140 well, if you're getting into this, you might 01:08:54.140 --> 01:08:56.439 want to check out Bad Motorfinger. OK, I'll check 01:08:56.439 --> 01:08:58.939 that out. Then you go, holy shit. Yeah, yeah. 01:08:58.960 --> 01:09:00.800 That's really great. And then it's just like 01:09:00.800 --> 01:09:04.060 then it all started to make sense because so 01:09:04.060 --> 01:09:05.920 much other rock was just about partying, having 01:09:05.920 --> 01:09:07.680 a good time, hanging with chicks and all that 01:09:07.680 --> 01:09:10.119 kind of stuff. And at that time, it all made 01:09:10.119 --> 01:09:12.239 sense. But then there were a lot of people that 01:09:12.239 --> 01:09:14.340 are like, Now, there's a lot of serious shit 01:09:14.340 --> 01:09:15.939 going on in this world, and there's some heavy 01:09:15.939 --> 01:09:17.880 stuff, and we need to talk about it. Right. Right. 01:09:17.920 --> 01:09:22.199 And that's what grunge was. And I didn't appreciate 01:09:22.199 --> 01:09:26.220 it until later. But then once I did, the music 01:09:26.220 --> 01:09:28.520 and the lyrics all made sense. Yeah. Absolutely. 01:09:28.539 --> 01:09:30.800 I really feel that. Heart reflects life, yeah? 01:09:31.119 --> 01:09:33.979 It really does. 100%. All right, well that was 01:09:33.979 --> 01:09:35.760 good. Hey, if we missed anything, as we always 01:09:35.760 --> 01:09:40.760 say, hit us up on the DMs, his stuff, my stuff, 01:09:40.960 --> 01:09:45.000 all over the socials, so just check us out.

And, you 01:10:14.039 --> 01:10:15.399 know, I haven't been going to the movies a lot 01:10:15.399 --> 01:10:17.600 lately. There just hasn't been anything tickling 01:10:17.600 --> 01:10:19.359 my fancy. And I thought, you know, even if the 01:10:19.359 --> 01:10:21.600 movie sucks, I should probably just bite the 01:10:21.600 --> 01:10:23.239 bullet and go so I have something to review. 01:10:24.119 --> 01:10:26.699 And I decided to hit up the old Netflix. I'm 01:10:26.699 --> 01:10:28.840 like, I've got Netflix on my phone. Why am I 01:10:28.840 --> 01:10:31.189 not? Checking this out. Maybe there's something 01:10:31.189 --> 01:10:33.210 in there. I could watch and I had a friend of 01:10:33.210 --> 01:10:36.130 mine She's a bartender and she was talking about 01:10:36.130 --> 01:10:37.670 this show. She's like, oh have you ever heard 01:10:37.670 --> 01:10:40.520 of the hunting wives and I'm like should I have?" 01:10:40.520 --> 01:10:42.359 And she's like, well, not really. She's like, 01:10:42.500 --> 01:10:45.560 it's like full of just unnecessary violence and 01:10:45.560 --> 01:10:48.079 sex and all this other stuff. And I'm like, uh, 01:10:48.159 --> 01:10:51.239 sounds like that, like cheesy bad. And she's 01:10:51.239 --> 01:10:53.579 like, well, yeah, you know, she's like, but you 01:10:53.579 --> 01:10:56.439 get sucked in, you know, it's, it's just good 01:10:56.439 --> 01:10:59.079 enough to kind of, so I'm like, ah, shit, I'll 01:10:59.079 --> 01:11:02.329 check it out. Yeah. So I check it out. So. It's 01:11:02.329 --> 01:11:04.729 called The Hunting Wives. It's on Netflix. It's 01:11:04.729 --> 01:11:06.829 a Netflix original with Mal and Ackerman, Brittany 01:11:06.829 --> 01:11:09.069 Snow, Delma Maroney. So there's some actors in 01:11:09.069 --> 01:11:12.170 it. Sophie O 'Neill, who's portrayed by Snow, 01:11:12.390 --> 01:11:16.590 moves to deep East Texas and succumbs to socialite 01:11:16.590 --> 01:11:19.550 Margot, who's played by Ackerman's charms. Her 01:11:19.550 --> 01:11:21.750 life is soon consumed by obsession, seduction, 01:11:21.970 --> 01:11:25.829 murder, all that kind of good stuff. I am about, 01:11:25.850 --> 01:11:28.489 well, more than halfway through now. At the time 01:11:28.489 --> 01:11:30.949 of writing, I was halfway through. I'm about 01:11:30.949 --> 01:11:33.289 three quarters of the way through now. It has 01:11:33.289 --> 01:11:36.430 violence and sex, but I don't feel it's gratuitous. 01:11:36.489 --> 01:11:40.770 I don't think it overtakes the movie. It's just 01:11:40.770 --> 01:11:44.229 kind of little stuff in the background. They're 01:11:44.229 --> 01:11:48.069 both kind of necessary for the story. So But 01:11:48.069 --> 01:11:50.109 it's not a distraction that was that's kind of 01:11:50.109 --> 01:11:51.970 what I was worried about There's just gonna be 01:11:51.970 --> 01:11:55.489 this smut shit or right just gonna be just this 01:11:55.489 --> 01:11:57.390 gratuitous violence or whatever, but neither 01:11:57.390 --> 01:12:03.289 is true. So The story is pretty decent it's just 01:12:03.289 --> 01:12:06.369 like a murder mystery and somebody from like 01:12:06.369 --> 01:12:10.409 Boston dealing with Texas and just Culture shock. 01:12:10.409 --> 01:12:13.210 Yeah, it's just different and you watch that 01:12:13.210 --> 01:12:15.750 and you're like shit. That's pretty real Yeah, 01:12:15.810 --> 01:12:19.529 it's it's gotta be but I really like like their 01:12:19.529 --> 01:12:21.449 character development All these characters are 01:12:21.449 --> 01:12:24.329 very complex and very different for as simple 01:12:24.329 --> 01:12:28.489 as the story is just a murder mystery but it's 01:12:28.489 --> 01:12:33.369 pretty decent so far and you know the Sophie 01:12:33.369 --> 01:12:35.609 O 'Neil is really the only one trying to solve 01:12:35.609 --> 01:12:39.399 the murder because you know the sheriff he just 01:12:39.399 --> 01:12:41.439 he kind of wants to close this thing out and 01:12:41.439 --> 01:12:44.060 whatever and right and then they had sophie as 01:12:44.060 --> 01:12:46.439 a suspect and then they they went on from that 01:12:46.439 --> 01:12:48.899 into this other guy and who is a scumbag and 01:12:48.899 --> 01:12:51.079 whatever and you kind of look at it and for a 01:12:51.079 --> 01:12:53.539 minute you're like that's almost too real for 01:12:53.539 --> 01:12:56.979 me like oh that person fits let's throw him in 01:12:56.979 --> 01:12:59.800 jail you wonder how often that happens it probably 01:12:59.800 --> 01:13:02.020 does happen once in a while believe it or not 01:13:02.020 --> 01:13:05.930 yeah But it's good, like she's really going trying 01:13:05.930 --> 01:13:07.789 to figure it out, even though she was suspect 01:13:07.789 --> 01:13:11.210 number one at the beginning. And so that was 01:13:11.210 --> 01:13:13.949 pretty interesting. I'm very interested to see 01:13:13.949 --> 01:13:16.430 how this last couple of episodes play out. I 01:13:16.430 --> 01:13:18.810 think I know where it's going. I did not have 01:13:18.810 --> 01:13:21.189 this person pegged as the killer originally, 01:13:21.210 --> 01:13:25.550 but it's pretty interesting. But at any rate... 01:13:25.630 --> 01:13:28.770 You know by no means award -winning But it's 01:13:28.770 --> 01:13:30.890 like just interesting enough like once you get 01:13:30.890 --> 01:13:33.090 into it and like some of these shows once you 01:13:33.090 --> 01:13:35.229 get into it And they start getting into a plot 01:13:35.229 --> 01:13:37.029 especially like when you get through these suspense 01:13:37.029 --> 01:13:40.010 and murder mysteries and things Then it's like 01:13:40.010 --> 01:13:42.250 well shit. I'm three or four and now I want to 01:13:42.250 --> 01:13:45.900 know right right like now. I want to know And 01:13:45.900 --> 01:13:47.779 so you're just eager to get roped in. Yeah. And 01:13:47.779 --> 01:13:51.579 that's I'm roped. Consider myself roped. So I 01:13:51.579 --> 01:13:53.460 do have to grade it, and I will grade it, even 01:13:53.460 --> 01:13:55.439 despite the ending on it. It could be a terrible 01:13:55.439 --> 01:13:57.859 ending. A lot of shows do end up that way. Season 01:13:57.859 --> 01:14:03.260 8 of Game of Thrones. Perfect example. And I 01:14:03.260 --> 01:14:05.699 think this is fitting. I give it a 6 .9 out of 01:14:05.699 --> 01:14:10.369 10. Nice yeah, I figured you know I think that 01:14:10.369 --> 01:14:12.649 that was necessary But I would just say you know 01:14:12.649 --> 01:14:13.869 if it's one of those things where you're like 01:14:13.869 --> 01:14:16.149 I you know kind of in the mood to just join something 01:14:16.149 --> 01:14:18.649 or watch something There's worse stuff out there, 01:14:18.670 --> 01:14:20.409 and it's just entertaining enough, or I think 01:14:20.409 --> 01:14:23.279 you could you know find it interesting My preview 01:14:23.279 --> 01:14:25.899 is an actual movie that maybe I'll go see. It's 01:14:25.899 --> 01:14:30.159 called The Smashing Machine. It's a 2025 American 01:14:30.159 --> 01:14:32.800 biographical sports drama written, directed, 01:14:33.020 --> 01:14:36.720 and produced by Benny Safadi. It stars Dwayne 01:14:36.720 --> 01:14:39.039 Johnson as a former amateur wrestler and MMA 01:14:39.039 --> 01:14:42.779 fighter Mark Kerr alongside Emily Blunt as Kerr's 01:14:42.779 --> 01:14:45.239 then wife, apparently no longer, Dawn Staples. 01:14:45.760 --> 01:14:48.779 The film was premiered at the Venice Film Festival 01:14:48.779 --> 01:14:52.399 to a worldwide acclaim. Apparently, standing 01:14:52.399 --> 01:14:55.020 ovation that lasted almost 10 minutes where Dwayne 01:14:55.020 --> 01:14:59.020 actually started to cry. Wow. So that means something. 01:14:59.619 --> 01:15:02.180 That definitely means something. The Smashing 01:15:02.180 --> 01:15:05.460 Machine is set for a limited release on October 01:15:05.460 --> 01:15:09.619 3rd. Check that out. Yeah, yeah. So we always 01:15:09.619 --> 01:15:12.239 go from that to while we're sleeping. So sometimes, 01:15:12.239 --> 01:15:15.300 you know, our foot's just not on the gas. Eyes 01:15:15.300 --> 01:15:17.800 are closed. We're taking a little snooze snooze. 01:15:17.800 --> 01:15:20.409 Oh, no. And it's like, oh. Oh, we missed it. 01:15:20.630 --> 01:15:24.310 Right. Whether you're a honk shoe snorter or 01:15:24.310 --> 01:15:28.010 a honk me, me, me, me. Yeah. Regardless. You 01:15:28.010 --> 01:15:30.569 could very well be. I will be your awoken. Yeah, 01:15:30.649 --> 01:15:33.789 and we do appreciate. We definitely want to be 01:15:33.789 --> 01:15:37.649 woke. Oh, no, wait. No, definitely wake us up 01:15:37.649 --> 01:15:40.470 while you're sleeping. He'll find a TV show, 01:15:40.529 --> 01:15:44.550 a movie. a podcast, a game, something like that 01:15:44.550 --> 01:15:47.250 that maybe we've missed or forgotten about. So 01:15:47.250 --> 01:15:48.909 what do you got for us this week, Aiden? This 01:15:48.909 --> 01:15:51.890 week I have a double feature for you. Oh, bring 01:15:51.890 --> 01:15:56.329 it. A double feature. We watched this movie last 01:15:56.329 --> 01:16:00.630 night and it got me thinking. There's another 01:16:00.630 --> 01:16:03.409 movie, similar to this, that shares one of the 01:16:03.409 --> 01:16:06.520 main actors. Okay. That I... belief I brought 01:16:06.520 --> 01:16:08.880 up in while you were sleeping on the Markham 01:16:08.880 --> 01:16:12.159 radio show. And I figured I've got to bring it 01:16:12.159 --> 01:16:16.520 up on a podcast. So we'll start off with a fantastic 01:16:16.520 --> 01:16:19.659 movie that I'm sure I mean, it did super well 01:16:19.659 --> 01:16:22.760 when it came out. But if you didn't see it, now 01:16:22.760 --> 01:16:25.140 is the time to see it. I mean, you can borrow 01:16:25.140 --> 01:16:27.819 it from the library for all for all I care. I 01:16:27.819 --> 01:16:30.319 mean, don't I don't advocate for streaming services. 01:16:30.399 --> 01:16:33.319 Go borrow it from a library for sure. Nosferatu 01:16:33.319 --> 01:16:38.590 2024. Oh fantastic movie and for anyone unaware. 01:16:38.609 --> 01:16:41.850 It's a gothic horror film director directed by 01:16:41.850 --> 01:16:45.829 Robert Eggers starring Bill Skarsgard Lily Rose 01:16:45.829 --> 01:16:51.170 Depp Nicholas Holt Willem Dafoe handful of other 01:16:51.170 --> 01:16:54.949 fantastic actors It's based on the 1922 silent 01:16:54.949 --> 01:16:59.890 film Nosferatu based on Bram Stoker's Stoker's 01:16:59.890 --> 01:17:04.329 Dracula the novel Fantastic movie. I mean the 01:17:04.329 --> 01:17:07.149 cinematography is wonderful. The story is great 01:17:07.149 --> 01:17:11.729 I feel like everyone played their part Fantastically. 01:17:11.729 --> 01:17:14.710 Oh for sure. I thought it was excellent and it 01:17:14.710 --> 01:17:17.050 got me thinking wait a minute this this Nicolas 01:17:17.050 --> 01:17:20.050 Holt guy I think there's another vampire movie 01:17:20.050 --> 01:17:23.550 with him. That was really good. There is From 01:17:23.550 --> 01:17:28.649 one year prior Renfield.

That's a two -for -one right there Nikolai 01:17:38.539 --> 01:17:43.399 if you will The plot generally Renfield tired 01:17:43.399 --> 01:17:47.960 of centuries of servitude from his narcissistic 01:17:47.960 --> 01:17:52.020 boss Dracula decides to leave find a support 01:17:52.020 --> 01:17:54.619 group of course that goes about as well as expected 01:17:54.619 --> 01:17:57.920 because Dracula's not exactly a kind person. 01:17:57.920 --> 01:18:02.760 No, but it is such a fantastic movie like Definite 01:18:02.760 --> 01:18:06.640 cult classic potential. I love it And of course 01:18:06.640 --> 01:18:09.520 that you can also borrow from your library So 01:18:09.520 --> 01:18:12.819 yeah Renfield and Nosferatu the double feature 01:18:12.819 --> 01:18:16.159 Double the vampires.

Renfield, 01:18:29.260 --> 01:18:32.100 that's right. She's in Renfield. And yeah, that 01:18:32.100 --> 01:18:34.199 is definitely an enjoyable watch. As you said, 01:18:34.420 --> 01:18:39.079 I think Colt Classic is probably correct. Yeah. 01:18:39.079 --> 01:18:41.840 I think that is definitely the best way to look 01:18:41.840 --> 01:18:45.500 at it. Oh, who's the one guy in Renfield? He's 01:18:45.500 --> 01:18:50.949 also in Parks and Rec. Something Johnson? Oh 01:18:50.949 --> 01:18:53.329 Yeah, I know what you're talking about. That 01:18:53.329 --> 01:18:55.970 dude's great.

And this Renfield, a little bit lighter, 01:19:17.859 --> 01:19:20.239 a little bit kind of dark comedy, but I did enjoy 01:19:20.239 --> 01:19:22.319 that for sure. Yeah, it's a good watch. Yeah, 01:19:22.319 --> 01:19:24.520 no doubt. All right, we're going to take our 01:19:24.520 --> 01:19:28.460 final break. And then we've got a beer review. 01:19:28.720 --> 01:19:31.500 Possibly beer, possibly another type of beverage. 01:19:32.720 --> 01:19:36.579 We'll get back to you on that in a minute. Definitely 01:19:36.579 --> 01:19:39.119 gonna review something and then world of weird 01:19:39.119 --> 01:19:56.500 news to close it out All right, we are in the 01:19:56.500 --> 01:19:58.600 homestretch and we're gonna start everything 01:19:58.600 --> 01:20:04.029 off with a beer review here on the official Mark 01:20:04.029 --> 01:20:06.970 Mo Show beer review. The official beer review. 01:20:07.329 --> 01:20:11.750 The only official beer review. Of the Mark Mo 01:20:11.750 --> 01:20:17.149 Show. Of the Mark Mo Show. There you go. So last 01:20:17.149 --> 01:20:19.649 week we did an Oktoberfest and we're staying 01:20:19.649 --> 01:20:24.029 kind of within the spooky season beers, if you 01:20:24.029 --> 01:20:27.630 will, with something called pumpkin ale. Pumpkin 01:20:27.630 --> 01:20:32.760 ale. Do you choose? Choose if you... If you will. 01:20:32.979 --> 01:20:35.560 If you will. Like I said, I had too much sleep, 01:20:35.739 --> 01:20:39.060 and I'm just not operating as I should be. You're 01:20:39.060 --> 01:20:40.880 misfiring on a few cylinders. Misfiring on a 01:20:40.880 --> 01:20:42.920 few cylinders. Yeah, usually it's four hours 01:20:42.920 --> 01:20:44.720 of sleep and hungover, and that's when I'm in 01:20:44.720 --> 01:20:48.199 prime condition for this podcast. And I had nothing 01:20:48.199 --> 01:20:50.600 to drink, and I was in bed for eight hours, and 01:20:50.600 --> 01:20:53.640 now I'm all messed up. Life works out. It's funny 01:20:53.640 --> 01:20:57.789 how it works out. But at any rate, do you choose 01:20:57.789 --> 01:21:00.510 to share with this lovely audience a little bit 01:21:00.510 --> 01:21:03.109 about our pumpkin ale? Certainly. It's literally 01:21:03.109 --> 01:21:06.489 called pumpkin ale, unlike some of those micro 01:21:06.489 --> 01:21:09.069 breweries that like to name their beers like, 01:21:09.090 --> 01:21:12.329 pumpkin yam orgy fuckfest for your taste buds. 01:21:13.350 --> 01:21:15.210 Exactly. No, it's literally called pumpkin ale. 01:21:15.210 --> 01:21:18.789 That is its title. Pumpkin ale made by State 01:21:18.789 --> 01:21:21.869 of Brewing, which is a regional brewery out of 01:21:21.869 --> 01:21:26.220 Wannakee, Wisconsin. Good ol' Midwestern brewery 01:21:26.220 --> 01:21:29.199 right there. Pumpkin Ale, a pumpkin slash yam 01:21:29.199 --> 01:21:32.260 beer. Because believe it or not, they are very 01:21:32.260 --> 01:21:36.140 similar. Most pumpkin pies, I believe, are made 01:21:36.140 --> 01:21:40.380 with part pumpkin, part yam. But yeah, it's got 01:21:40.380 --> 01:21:43.880 6 % ABV, so a little higher than your typical 01:21:43.880 --> 01:21:49.500 lager or pale ale, if you will. And it is simply 01:21:49.500 --> 01:21:53.500 described as an ale brewed with spices. Love 01:21:53.500 --> 01:21:55.380 it now. We'll be the judge of that. We will be 01:21:55.380 --> 01:21:59.039 using the untapped app indeed, which is free 01:21:59.039 --> 01:22:00.520 for your phones We're not sponsored. Although 01:22:00.520 --> 01:22:02.600 they should sponsor us at this rate. Mm -hmm 01:22:02.600 --> 01:22:04.640 We will be ranking them on a scale from zero 01:22:04.640 --> 01:22:07.159 to five on how much we like them and we'll be 01:22:07.159 --> 01:22:09.680 giving you flavor notes And of course per you 01:22:09.680 --> 01:22:11.199 show this up on the socials. Let us know what 01:22:11.199 --> 01:22:15.119 you are enjoying this fine fall time of the year 01:22:15.119 --> 01:22:18.119 indeed, it doesn't feel like fall because It's 01:22:18.119 --> 01:22:20.079 it's gonna be 80 degrees. Yeah 80 degrees in 01:22:20.079 --> 01:22:23.020 the Midwest Go figure, you know, it's it's it 01:22:23.020 --> 01:22:26.460 we always like a nice fall. I think yeah, you 01:22:26.460 --> 01:22:28.439 know to enjoy these beverages You know something 01:22:28.439 --> 01:22:30.680 where it's a little like there's a little crisp 01:22:30.680 --> 01:22:33.500 in the air, but it's not cold right that we like 01:22:33.500 --> 01:22:36.640 very much The the bonfire kind of weather so 01:22:36.640 --> 01:22:39.600 to speak. Yes And this is this is like summer. 01:22:39.760 --> 01:22:41.479 What are we in summer part two? Yeah, it's a 01:22:41.479 --> 01:22:43.500 summer part three at this bit might be part three 01:22:43.500 --> 01:22:45.239 Yeah, I think you're I think you're right. All 01:22:45.239 --> 01:22:49.300 I want is three straight months of 50 to 70 degrees 01:22:49.390 --> 01:22:52.189 with a breeze, occasional rain. Yeah. Make it 01:22:52.189 --> 01:22:55.029 happen. Yeah, I'm going to go on a limb here 01:22:55.029 --> 01:22:59.010 because we don't, we don't gamble much on the 01:22:59.010 --> 01:23:02.850 air here, but I would, I would be very curious 01:23:02.850 --> 01:23:06.069 to see where your over under is. First snowflakes 01:23:06.069 --> 01:23:09.789 in the next three weeks. Ooh, ooh, I'm going 01:23:09.789 --> 01:23:12.829 to say, I'll take the under. I say no. You say 01:23:12.829 --> 01:23:15.149 no? I say no. I think summer part three is going 01:23:15.149 --> 01:23:16.909 to last, it's going to overstay its welcome, 01:23:17.470 --> 01:23:20.909 which it already has. It'll overstay its welcome 01:23:20.909 --> 01:23:23.609 then we'll get a couple weeks of good fall weather 01:23:23.609 --> 01:23:27.750 and I could see first snowflakes in Mid November. 01:23:28.010 --> 01:23:31.060 Okay. All right. That's my bet That's your okay. 01:23:31.300 --> 01:23:34.220 Lock it in. I will definitely lock that in for 01:23:34.220 --> 01:23:37.180 sure. I think I think weather's just too weird. 01:23:37.760 --> 01:23:40.420 And so it's so weird. So I could definitely see 01:23:40.420 --> 01:23:43.060 like three or four days of 80s. And then a cold 01:23:43.060 --> 01:23:46.279 front come through. And then, like early in the 01:23:46.279 --> 01:23:48.380 morning, you just have those snowflakes floating 01:23:48.380 --> 01:23:51.220 around the air a little frost. But who knows? 01:23:51.239 --> 01:23:53.859 We'll see. Aidan's got his locked in. So we'll 01:23:53.859 --> 01:23:55.560 we'll see how that goes. But hey, let's drink 01:23:55.560 --> 01:23:57.920 some pumpkin beer. Let's drink some pumpkin ale, 01:23:58.199 --> 01:24:02.039 cilantro. Cilantro. Well, I got cinnamon and 01:24:02.039 --> 01:24:04.319 nutmeg big -time. My goodness. That is wonderfully 01:24:04.319 --> 01:24:08.039 flavorful. Yeah There's almost that the hint 01:24:08.039 --> 01:24:11.220 of sweetness is almost molasses molasses II. 01:24:11.680 --> 01:24:15.859 Yeah That is really tasty. Yeah big on the cinnamon 01:24:15.859 --> 01:24:20.579 and nutmeg Real molasses kind of almost gingerbread 01:24:20.579 --> 01:24:24.180 kind of sweetness to it. Yeah, kinda You know 01:24:24.180 --> 01:24:26.000 what? There is a hint of ginger in there. I would 01:24:26.000 --> 01:24:29.489 bet Yeah, I think you're right. Yeah Kind of 01:24:29.489 --> 01:24:32.829 light on the pumpkin. It is more just pumpkin 01:24:32.829 --> 01:24:35.909 spiced. For sure. Yeah, a little light on the 01:24:35.909 --> 01:24:38.430 pumpkin, but that is fantastic. It's not thin. 01:24:39.189 --> 01:24:41.710 You know, it's a very full bodied ale, I would 01:24:41.710 --> 01:24:44.329 say. And I like them like that, especially like 01:24:44.329 --> 01:24:46.369 fall time ales where you want them a little thicker 01:24:46.369 --> 01:24:50.130 and heartier. This is really fantastic. God, 01:24:50.130 --> 01:24:52.550 I love a good pumpkin beer. And this is a good 01:24:52.550 --> 01:24:55.149 one. It is a good one. This is actually kind 01:24:55.149 --> 01:24:59.109 of humorous because the... And the flavor profiles, 01:24:59.229 --> 01:25:02.050 they give you the most recommended, but then 01:25:02.050 --> 01:25:03.750 you can click on it and you get all of them. 01:25:03.890 --> 01:25:06.390 Yeah. I was kind of scrolling through because 01:25:06.390 --> 01:25:08.250 I was going down to Nutmeg. Nutmeg wasn't one 01:25:08.250 --> 01:25:09.850 of them. Like, oh, Nutmeg's got to be in there. 01:25:10.390 --> 01:25:12.869 So I clicked on Nutmeg. Up just a few into the 01:25:12.869 --> 01:25:16.289 M's, there's something moldy. Moldy?

Hang on Why does it say 01:26:00.350 --> 01:26:02.350 two different things on the label? Does it really? 01:26:02.770 --> 01:26:04.909 Does it or do I just not know how to read that 01:26:04.909 --> 01:26:08.630 could be? No, I'm seeing Wannake. Wannake.

Okay, I think I would 01:26:50.170 --> 01:26:53.449 have given it a higher Rating if it was more 01:26:53.449 --> 01:26:55.970 pumpkin because I really got slapped in the teeth 01:26:55.970 --> 01:26:58.390 with pumpkin, but it's more pumpkin spice than 01:26:58.390 --> 01:27:02.329 it is pumpkin so Yeah, three five out of five 01:27:02.329 --> 01:27:05.390 flavor profile. I added ginger molasses nutmeg 01:27:05.390 --> 01:27:10.029 sweet cinnamon and clove Yeah, that's uh that's 01:27:10.029 --> 01:27:16.510 about right.

Yeah, and 01:28:31.750 --> 01:28:35.369 I believe Aldi South is the Aldi we're familiar 01:28:35.369 --> 01:28:38.810 with. And Aldi North came into the US. But since 01:28:38.810 --> 01:28:41.210 the name was taken, they go by Trader Joe's. 01:28:42.119 --> 01:28:44.800 No, but that's part of that same company. Uh 01:28:44.800 --> 01:28:48.020 -huh.

So here's the title 01:29:32.100 --> 01:29:34.899 of my world of weird news story. Prankster banned 01:29:34.899 --> 01:29:37.979 for life from Vegas Resort after wild Justin 01:29:37.979 --> 01:29:42.819 Bieber ruse. Oh no. Here we go. A Justin Bieber 01:29:42.819 --> 01:29:47.060 impersonator used his pop star -like look to 01:29:47.060 --> 01:29:51.140 advantage over the weekend as he performed for 01:29:51.140 --> 01:29:54.380 a packed nightclub. That's funny. And tricked 01:29:54.380 --> 01:29:58.720 the headlining DJ, Griffin, at the Wynn Encore 01:29:58.720 --> 01:30:02.140 Resort in Las Vegas. The Doppelganger, for whom 01:30:02.140 --> 01:30:07.739 Griffin dubbed Bustin' Jeeber in a social media 01:30:07.739 --> 01:30:12.699 post, showed up to the resort's excess nightclub 01:30:12.699 --> 01:30:16.600 dancing in sunglasses and a hoodie that showed 01:30:16.600 --> 01:30:21.579 off his tatted chest before the DJ learned that 01:30:21.579 --> 01:30:24.880 he wished to perform, according to footage from 01:30:24.880 --> 01:30:28.710 the show shared by Griffin. Dark venue and loud 01:30:28.710 --> 01:30:31.630 music didn't help wrote Griffin as the video 01:30:31.630 --> 01:30:35.850 showed him speaking to Dylan desk close the man 01:30:35.850 --> 01:30:39.390 he believed to be singer to be the singer He 01:30:39.390 --> 01:30:43.609 recalled desk closes team Telling him that the 01:30:43.609 --> 01:30:47.430 man wanted to perform. Sorry the singers are 01:30:47.430 --> 01:30:51.949 Sorry, the singers 2015 smash it he wanted to 01:30:51.949 --> 01:30:55.750 sing sorry sing sorry Little did I know I was 01:30:55.750 --> 01:30:58.630 about to be sorry, wrote Griffin. Oh, no. Oh, 01:30:58.850 --> 01:31:02.069 Griff. As the video flashed to footage of Descoce 01:31:02.069 --> 01:31:05.010 on stage as the song played while fans screamed 01:31:05.010 --> 01:31:08.789 and recorded him from the crowd. Griffin said 01:31:08.789 --> 01:31:11.869 he then got the worst news imaginable when he 01:31:11.869 --> 01:31:14.609 learned that the man was a phony after the show. 01:31:15.050 --> 01:31:18.329 He went on to note in his hotel room that he 01:31:18.329 --> 01:31:21.390 thought the singer had put on a lot of weight. 01:31:22.680 --> 01:31:26.390 since his album Swag dropped last month. Michael 01:31:26.390 --> 01:31:28.869 Weaver, a spokesperson for the win, later explained 01:31:28.869 --> 01:31:32.109 to media outlets that the man was granted access 01:31:32.109 --> 01:31:34.750 to the excess stage following what the resort 01:31:34.750 --> 01:31:38.069 described as an elaborate and multi -step ruse 01:31:38.069 --> 01:31:42.569 by him and his advanced team. That's crazy. As 01:31:42.569 --> 01:31:45.050 soon as the air was recognized, he was removed 01:31:45.050 --> 01:31:47.869 from the resort and denied future entry, Weaver 01:31:47.869 --> 01:31:50.689 wrote of the lifetime ban and a statement. That's 01:31:50.689 --> 01:31:53.949 crazy. Outside the nightclub, social media clips 01:31:53.949 --> 01:31:57.880 showed the man brow - several stores with security 01:31:57.880 --> 01:32:03.060 guards and posing for selfies during his Vegas 01:32:03.060 --> 01:32:07.359 trip. Desclos, who is from France, has shared 01:32:07.359 --> 01:32:09.439 a number of videos over the years from public 01:32:09.439 --> 01:32:12.100 appearances and shows where he performs as Bieber. 01:32:12.859 --> 01:32:15.159 Last year, he caught the attention of Bieber's 01:32:15.159 --> 01:32:18.479 wife, Hailey Bieber, after he was spotted on 01:32:18.479 --> 01:32:21.960 the train in his native country.

DeskLose was not immediately available 01:32:36.970 --> 01:32:39.649 to respond to HuffPost's request for comment. 01:32:39.649 --> 01:32:45.729 Oh my god. That's a crazy ruse. Isn't it?
