--> 00:31.040 [SPEAKER_02]: Thank you for spending your MLK day evening hanging out with us. 00:31.120 --> 00:33.885 [SPEAKER_02]: If you had the weekend off, if you had the day off, 00:33.865 --> 00:36.350 [SPEAKER_02]: Yes, you should absolutely think Martin Luther King's Jr. 00:36.510 --> 00:38.975 [SPEAKER_02]: But you should also think Dr. King for a whole lot of other things. 00:38.995 --> 00:40.518 [SPEAKER_02]: We only talking about some of that today. 00:41.240 --> 00:46.390 [SPEAKER_02]: Um, also we obviously have to talk about Donald's latest bout of insanity because 00:46.825

uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh 01:14.095 --> 01:17.273 [SPEAKER_02]: if you're listening on them, wherever you be, congratulations. 01:17.333 --> 01:17.856 [SPEAKER_02]: Thank you for that.

01:23.363 --> 01:24.324 [SPEAKER_07]: We like everybody, though. 01:24.364 --> 01:26.827 [SPEAKER_07]: I mean, we're pretty poor like when it comes to that. 01:30.052 --> 01:34.557 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, you know, more like, I wouldn't call us a horse. 01:35.158 --> 01:37.161 [SPEAKER_02]: We're more like, I don't know, slats. 01:38.002 --> 01:38.402 [SPEAKER_07]: Okay. 01:38.422 --> 01:38.823 [SPEAKER_07]: Either one. 01:39.123 --> 01:40.285 [SPEAKER_07]: Well, let's don't get paid. 01:40.305 --> 01:44.490 [SPEAKER_07]: That's us. 01:45.213 --> 01:47.316 [SPEAKER_02]: We're just here for you guys to have fun. 01:47.576 --> 01:50.139 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, and occasionally, of course, for you people who pay six dollars a month. 01:50.439 --> 01:50.720 [SPEAKER_02]: Thank you. 01:50.760 --> 01:51.761 [SPEAKER_02]: Politicsbar.com. 01:51.801 --> 01:53.143 [SPEAKER_02]: We really appreciate you. 01:53.163 --> 01:53.563 [SPEAKER_02]: Very much. 01:53.964 --> 01:54.685 [SPEAKER_02]: That does help. 01:54.725 --> 01:56.387 [SPEAKER_02]: So maybe for them more horse. 01:56.527 --> 01:56.968 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know. 01:57.168 --> 01:59.230 [SPEAKER_02]: I guess I have friends in the sex industry. 01:59.250 --> 02:00.332 [SPEAKER_02]: And that's fine. 02:00.352 --> 02:07.761 [SPEAKER_02]: That's, you know, they're like, you know, they just say there are some people who you wouldn't want to call a horse. 02:08.669 --> 02:23.154 [SPEAKER_02]: And they're usually comparing them to comparing that that comparison is usually rolled out when it's somebody in politics who's doing something, you know, they're like, ah, no way, there's no amount of money that I would, for example, everyone else, same people say once, there's no amount of money you could pay me to vote for Donald Trump. 02:23.194 --> 02:33.512 [SPEAKER_02]: And I was like, right, Sam, yeah, there is no amount of money that the United States can pay to be able to buy Greenland. 02:36.732 --> 02:39.575 [SPEAKER_07]: I just it's just he's a baby. 02:39.635 --> 02:41.057 [SPEAKER_07]: He's whiny. 02:41.077 --> 02:42.899 [SPEAKER_07]: He didn't get his pony. 02:42.919 --> 02:48.445 [SPEAKER_07]: He got he got the second prize pony, which is not really a pony. 02:48.485 --> 02:51.809 [SPEAKER_07]: And he's a laughing stock worldwide. 02:51.849 --> 02:53.070 [SPEAKER_07]: And I think that's why he's upset. 02:53.090 --> 02:57.535 [SPEAKER_02]: I think there's a lot of reasons he's upset. 02:57.896 --> 03:03.482 [SPEAKER_02]: One of the reasons he's upset was literally called out by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. 03:04.205 --> 03:07.809 [SPEAKER_02]: literally long before most of us were even around. 03:08.350 --> 03:09.491 [SPEAKER_07]: And Donning was a child. 03:09.711 --> 03:10.872 [SPEAKER_07]: Well, he was in his 20s. 03:11.133 --> 03:12.454 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, but he's still. 03:13.736 --> 03:15.017 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, he's not child-ish. 03:15.678 --> 03:16.679 [SPEAKER_02]: Definitely not child-like. 03:16.959 --> 03:17.280 [SPEAKER_02]: No. 03:19.803 --> 03:21.464 [SPEAKER_07]: He's the worst parts of children. 03:22.145 --> 03:22.566 [SPEAKER_02]: He is. 03:22.786 --> 03:24.207 [SPEAKER_02]: He is everything. 03:24.227 --> 03:29.974 [SPEAKER_02]: I think it was Hillary Clinton was the first person I heard say that he is everything we tell our children not to be. 03:30.094 --> 03:30.955 [SPEAKER_02]: Exactly. 03:31.289 --> 03:51.323 [SPEAKER_02]: because he person he personifies everything yes but he's also he is that way in part because of all of the people who remain silent yes as Dr Martin Luther King said the day we remain we can't remain silent about things that are important that's that's I can't remember the exact quote but look 03:51.792 --> 03:53.214 [SPEAKER_02]: There are a lot of things that are important. 03:53.475 --> 03:55.919 [SPEAKER_02]: There are a lot of things that are important. 03:55.939 --> 04:02.931 [SPEAKER_02]: I had people tell me before, Jody, that they're like, you know, sometimes I will just walk by somebody. 04:03.011 --> 04:05.215 [SPEAKER_02]: It's not like I'm sneaking up behind them. 04:05.996 --> 04:10.003 [SPEAKER_02]: But when I'm not talking, I can be actually really quiet. 04:10.363 --> 04:11.986 [SPEAKER_02]: And I freak the hell out of people sometimes. 04:12.948 --> 04:14.290 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm like, oh, I didn't know you were there. 04:14.978 --> 04:16.881 [SPEAKER_02]: Okay, whatever, don't stick up on me. 04:16.981 --> 04:17.923 [SPEAKER_02]: I didn't sneak up on you. 04:17.963 --> 04:18.925 [SPEAKER_02]: I just existed here. 04:18.985 --> 04:19.365 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm sorry. 04:19.385 --> 04:19.986 [SPEAKER_02]: You didn't see me. 04:20.247 --> 04:21.709 [SPEAKER_06]: Right. 04:21.729 --> 04:25.576 [SPEAKER_02]: Some of these same people will then say to me, God, you talking awful lot. 04:26.518 --> 04:29.463 [SPEAKER_02]: And I'll say why only generally talk when it's important. 04:30.945 --> 04:32.608 [SPEAKER_02]: And then people will like, give it, you still talk a lot. 04:33.449 --> 04:35.893 [SPEAKER_02]: It's because there's a lot of important things to talk about. 04:35.934 --> 04:36.835 [SPEAKER_02]: Exactly. 04:37.000 --> 04:41.425 [SPEAKER_02]: As I was telling my mom this weekend, I said, you know, do you want hell of a lot of little, a lot easier? 04:41.465 --> 04:42.807 [SPEAKER_02]: And I would have to talk a lot less. 04:43.507 --> 04:53.679 [SPEAKER_02]: If people just listened to the things that people like you and me have to say, we ain't out here doing this, just, I mean, yes, we're doing it because it's fun. 04:53.699 --> 04:54.500 [SPEAKER_02]: We hang out with you guys. 04:54.520 --> 04:54.960 [SPEAKER_02]: That's fun. 04:56.062 --> 05:00.066 [SPEAKER_02]: But some of the stuff that we're saying is it's not for S and G's. 05:00.527 --> 05:02.509 [SPEAKER_02]: Now, as a friend of mine used to say, right? 05:03.230 --> 05:05.252 [SPEAKER_02]: It's important, it matters. 05:06.481 --> 05:18.736 [SPEAKER_02]: Uh, for example, I've told you the story about screaming from the inside of an national mediator in 2016 that this monster Donald Trump was being controlled by Putin and Putin had his hand up Donnie's ass and only was was a puppet. 05:19.537 --> 05:29.569 [SPEAKER_02]: I was far from the only one, but I was one of the few inside the national media still screaming and being told shut up, you're explaining I've 05:30.089 --> 05:31.350 [SPEAKER_07]: Well, I mean, less moon vests. 05:32.231 --> 05:33.813 [SPEAKER_07]: It's great for ratings bad for the country. 05:33.853 --> 05:37.216 [SPEAKER_07]: He's no longer working for Viacom, so there's that. 05:37.437 --> 05:39.959 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, maybe because less moon vests had a problem. 05:40.480 --> 05:41.361 [SPEAKER_02]: Keeping it in a shorts. 05:42.742 --> 05:44.744 [SPEAKER_02]: But boy, he was great about exciting, right? 05:46.566 --> 05:46.866 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 05:47.327 --> 05:49.809 [SPEAKER_02]: There were people by the way who knew what less moon vests was doing. 05:50.330 --> 05:51.371 [SPEAKER_02]: It didn't say anything. 05:54.274 --> 05:57.497 [SPEAKER_02]: When people quote Martin Luther King, Jr. 05:58.540 --> 06:05.290 [SPEAKER_02]: They often, they go to the content of your character line. 06:05.530 --> 06:05.751 [SPEAKER_02]: Of course. 06:06.131 --> 06:07.213 [SPEAKER_02]: They go to some of the other lines. 06:07.333 --> 06:17.348 [SPEAKER_02]: But some of my favorites are from the speech you gave on April 3rd, day before he was assassinated. 06:18.109 --> 06:21.554 [SPEAKER_02]: One of the others, I love, obviously, the letter from the Birmingham jail. 06:22.295 --> 06:24.058 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 06:25.861 --> 06:29.707 [SPEAKER_02]: Obviously, I don't have the gravitas or the tone that he did, but here I can do this. 06:29.747 --> 06:31.550 [SPEAKER_02]: Time itself is neutral. 06:31.710 --> 06:34.775 [SPEAKER_02]: It can be used either destructively or constructively. 06:35.256 --> 06:42.047 [SPEAKER_02]: More and more I feel that the people of ill will have used time much more effectively than have the people of goodwill. 06:43.057 --> 06:51.171 [SPEAKER_02]: We will have to repent in this generation, not merely for the hateful words and actions of the bad people, but for the appalling silence of the good people. 06:51.672 --> 06:55.358 [SPEAKER_02]: He won progress never rolls in on wheels of inevitability. 06:55.378 --> 06:58.483 [SPEAKER_02]: It comes through the timeless efforts, the tireless efforts. 06:58.868 --> 07:06.620 [SPEAKER_02]: of men willing to be co-workers with God and without this hard work, time itself becomes an ally of the forces of social stagnation. 07:07.181 --> 07:09.384 [SPEAKER_02]: We must use time creatively. 07:09.764 --> 07:20.100 [SPEAKER_02]: In the knowledge that the time is always ripe to do right now is the time to make real the promise of democracy and transform our pending national energy 07:20.384 --> 07:22.186 [SPEAKER_02]: into a creative song of Brotherhood. 07:22.486 --> 07:29.353 [SPEAKER_02]: Now is the time to lift our national policy from the quicksand of racial injustice to the solid rock of human dignity. 07:29.713 --> 07:29.873 [SPEAKER_07]: Amen. 07:29.893 --> 07:30.034 [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah. 07:35.419 --> 07:39.643 [SPEAKER_02]: It's never too late to do the right thing, right? 07:39.663 --> 07:41.965 [SPEAKER_02]: Or at least try to do the right thing. 07:42.366 --> 07:43.267 [SPEAKER_02]: That means you succeed. 07:45.069 --> 07:48.552 [SPEAKER_02]: But it also means that you have to speak up. 07:49.747 --> 07:59.301 [SPEAKER_02]: the hateful actions, the hateful words and actions of the bad people, but for the appalling silence of the good people, the appalling silence of the good people. 08:01.824 --> 08:08.033 [SPEAKER_02]: We can look at tiny Johnson virtually every damn Republican there, but we can also look at all of these Republican voters. 08:09.055 --> 08:17.847 [SPEAKER_02]: Some of whom are now our friends, former Republican voters. 08:18.316 --> 08:40.089 [SPEAKER_02]: Um, Joe Walsh, former Congressman Joe Walsh who were silent knowing that some of this stuff was going on and didn't say stuff until they did and that's great and God, we are we love them that they did But you know what some of us were saying this stuff years years and you Dr. Martin Luther King was saying this stuff literally before either Jody or I were born. 08:40.270 --> 08:40.510 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah 08:43.814 --> 08:46.197 [SPEAKER_02]: And there are a hell of a lot of people that we know out there. 08:46.617 --> 08:55.908 [SPEAKER_02]: We all know the whether you sit in Chicago or Atlanta, up in the cities, down in Tennessee, or anywhere else in the country at California, Seattle, we see you in New York too. 08:56.608 --> 08:57.990 [SPEAKER_02]: We're glad you're all here in the bar with us. 08:58.130 --> 09:03.216 [SPEAKER_02]: But we all know people who, I just, I don't want to lose my place. 09:04.017 --> 09:07.020 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't want to lose my benefits. 09:07.405 --> 09:11.759 [SPEAKER_02]: I can't tell you how many people I don't know them and you don't way more people in Hollywood than I do, Jodie. 09:12.160 --> 09:20.487 [SPEAKER_02]: I guarantee you, you know what, ton of people out there who remain silent because they think they'd lose something in my wrong. 09:20.652 --> 09:24.055 [SPEAKER_07]: Well, I'm sure there's, well, I mean, a friend of mine has put days today, actually. 09:25.157 --> 09:26.178 [SPEAKER_07]: Happy birthday. 09:26.278 --> 09:28.480 [SPEAKER_07]: He actually came on Stephanie's show years ago. 09:28.960 --> 09:31.143 [SPEAKER_07]: And when I asked him, because he's a rock star. 09:31.963 --> 09:36.067 [SPEAKER_07]: And I said, he's sure, because this is probably now you listen to the show, and now you like the show. 09:36.128 --> 09:42.234 [SPEAKER_07]: And, but, you know, there's a certain faction of your fan base that you're going to like you. 09:42.274 --> 09:44.336 [SPEAKER_07]: And this is way before Donald showed up. 09:45.977 --> 09:47.339 [SPEAKER_07]: And he says, I don't want to problem with that. 09:48.360 --> 09:48.600 [SPEAKER_07]: Good. 09:49.019 --> 09:57.817 [SPEAKER_07]: You know, because I said you could lose people if they think, you know, if they follow you with all and you promote that you were on the show and it goes, no, I don't have a problem with that. 09:57.837 --> 10:05.012 [SPEAKER_02]: One of the reasons that I didn't trust Joe Joe, I know, wrote a piece on her, um, sub-stack over the weekend. 10:05.032 --> 10:09.441 [SPEAKER_02]: She's mad because Michael Cohen is a bad shot at some of the stuff. 10:10.417 --> 10:13.341 [SPEAKER_02]: One of the reasons that I didn't 100% trust Michael Cohen. 10:13.581 --> 10:14.542 [SPEAKER_02]: I was glad that he did. 10:15.203 --> 10:21.030 [SPEAKER_02]: And as I've said, if you want to be right on any one particular issue, you may feel free to hop on the bus. 10:21.171 --> 10:25.396 [SPEAKER_02]: Don't mean you can drive, but we'll pull a seat up for you, at least on that particular issue. 10:25.436 --> 10:29.381 [SPEAKER_02]: We did that for MTG and hey, you know, Epstein files thing got passed. 10:29.401 --> 10:29.681 [SPEAKER_02]: Great. 10:30.683 --> 10:32.545 [SPEAKER_02]: I still think she's awful, even though she's out. 10:32.585 --> 10:37.251 [SPEAKER_02]: I still disagree with her on a lot of stuff, but she ain't Congress now, so whatever. 10:39.442 --> 10:44.368 [SPEAKER_02]: But I didn't trust Michael Cohen as much because he'd already lost all the things he was gonna lose. 10:44.768 --> 10:45.449 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 10:45.469 --> 10:47.531 [SPEAKER_02]: He didn't have that much to lose. 10:48.573 --> 10:49.574 [SPEAKER_02]: And he had a lot to gain. 10:50.655 --> 10:50.855 [SPEAKER_02]: True. 10:52.217 --> 10:56.202 [SPEAKER_02]: Joe Walsh, one of the reasons I trust him a little bit more, I still disagree with him a bunch of stuff. 10:56.382 --> 10:56.542 [SPEAKER_02]: Same. 10:58.264 --> 11:06.654 [SPEAKER_02]: But one of the reasons I know I, I don't know if you feel the same way this one, but one of the reasons I trust him a little bit more is, he had a lot to lose and he chose to lose it. 11:06.794 --> 11:09.297 [SPEAKER_02]: He actively chose to lose it. 11:10.576 --> 11:12.619 [SPEAKER_02]: Chagicobus had a lot to lose. 11:13.199 --> 11:14.561 [SPEAKER_02]: And she chose to lose it. 11:14.861 --> 11:16.403 [SPEAKER_02]: She chose to do the right thing. 11:16.724 --> 11:25.274 [SPEAKER_02]: They chose to speak out to say the right thing, to say the correct thing at the time. 11:25.575 --> 11:26.836 [SPEAKER_02]: And they lost a lot. 11:28.158 --> 11:31.102 [SPEAKER_02]: And they have backtracked, they're like, no, well, that kind of sucked. 11:31.162 --> 11:32.243 [SPEAKER_02]: And that was a sucky period. 11:32.263 --> 11:35.507 [SPEAKER_02]: But you don't want, I'm doing okay, things are going forward. 11:36.008 --> 11:36.128 [UNKNOWN]: Right. 11:36.732 --> 11:37.894 [SPEAKER_02]: Bruce Bartlett, very similar. 11:38.234 --> 11:39.256 [SPEAKER_02]: Bruce lost a lot. 11:39.276 --> 11:42.100 [SPEAKER_02]: He was speaking out way back during the W days. 11:42.301 --> 11:42.741 [SPEAKER_02]: Yes, he was. 11:44.003 --> 11:52.817 [SPEAKER_02]: So I don't, if you lose it when it matters, that's important. 11:53.137 --> 11:58.646 [SPEAKER_02]: If you haven't lost something one doesn't matter, but it's important no matter what that you speak up, that you speak up that you stand

the newest video where they're setting up car alarms? 12:11.286 --> 12:16.633 [SPEAKER_07]: Yes, I was just going to make it so brilliant because what are the ice agents going to do? 12:16.673 --> 12:19.917 [SPEAKER_07]: Like your car alarm went off or they just going to let you know this? 12:20.037 --> 12:23.481 [SPEAKER_07]: I mean, car alarms go off all the time for no apparent reason. 12:23.601 --> 12:32.592 [SPEAKER_02]: There have been a few people as well who have been, there's been some old messages and I won't point to them, but they've been 12:33.989 --> 12:37.594 [SPEAKER_02]: watching where some of these ice monsters walk, and then they have to clean their sidewalks. 12:38.715 --> 12:39.156 [SPEAKER_02]: Just saying. 12:40.057 --> 12:43.041 [SPEAKER_02]: And

and policy. 12:58.400 --> 13:03.827 [SPEAKER_02]: And at sermon, we actually link to the full text of it 13:04.583 --> 13:20.635 [SPEAKER_02]: I think it's pretty important that you know that well

remember if the markets were up today, and I think they're close to they too. 15:04.079 --> 15:04.741 [SPEAKER_02]: It's a holiday. 15:05.161 --> 15:07.365 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, usually they're close

events, days of service, people out doing that. 15:21.963 --> 15:31.153 [SPEAKER_02]: I always love when Barack and Michelle would go out and do that, um, do a day of service on MLK day or some of the, that, that is the kind of thing that a real leader does. 15:32.715 --> 15:32.795 [SPEAKER_02]: Hmm. 15:32.815 --> 15:41.065 [SPEAKER_02]: Unlike that whiny ass little brat, Donald Trump, by the way, we have a picture to cry baby whining right there on the, on the front of the news on tap. 15:41.465 --> 15:48.573 [SPEAKER_02]: He, he's looking over to, at the, at the folks, um, uh, in Greenland and he's whining because they're telling him Greenland is not for sale. 15:48.593 --> 15:49.995 [SPEAKER_07]: It is not for sale. 15:53.283 --> 15:53.703 [SPEAKER_02]: You're right. 15:53.843 --> 15:55.805 [SPEAKER_02]: It is absolutely not for sale. 15:56.546 --> 15:57.767 [SPEAKER_07]: It's not his for the taking. 15:57.807 --> 15:59.028 [SPEAKER_07]: It's not ours for the taking. 15:59.308 --> 16:00.229 [SPEAKER_07]: We are the bad guys. 16:01.370 --> 16:03.412 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, yeah, the United States is the bad guys. 16:03.952 --> 16:04.913 [SPEAKER_02]: We are the good guys in there. 16:04.953 --> 16:05.874 [SPEAKER_02]: A lot of quiet. 16:06.555 --> 16:08.797 [SPEAKER_02]: Good guys and gals quiet people. 16:09.117 --> 16:12.900 [SPEAKER_02]: Good people who for whatever reason have remained silent. 16:14.362 --> 16:21.568 [SPEAKER_02]: So I was talking about one of the pieces in the news on tap in the first round under MLK Junior still has the answers American needs. 16:21.920 --> 16:30.334 [SPEAKER_02]: Uh, and we have the text of his speech on being a good neighbor, which, uh, I, this, these are some questions that neighbors should ask. 16:30.714 --> 16:40.230 [SPEAKER_02]: So from Dr. King's speech, he said, we sell often ask, what will happen to my job, my prestige or my status if I take a stand on this issue? 16:41.232 --> 16:45.058 [SPEAKER_02]: When my home be bombed, when my life be threatened or will I be jailed? 16:45.967 --> 16:47.909 [SPEAKER_02]: The good man always reverses the question. 16:48.710 --> 16:57.038 [SPEAKER_02]: Albert Schreitz did not ask what will happen to my prestige and security as a university professor into my status as a Bach organist if I work with the people of Africa. 16:57.358 --> 17:03.905 [SPEAKER_02]: But rather he asked, what will happen to these millions of people who have been wounded by the forces of injustice if I do not go to them? 17:03.925 --> 17:10.231 [SPEAKER_02]: Abraham Lincoln did not ask, what will happen to me if I issue the emancipation proclamation and bring an end to Chedal slavery? 17:10.852 --> 17:15.737 [SPEAKER_02]: But he asked, what will happen to the union and to millions of Negro people if I fail to do it? 17:16.190 --> 17:26.162 [SPEAKER_02]: The Negro Professional does not ask what will happen to my secure position, my middle class status or my personal safety, if I participate in the movement to end this system of segregation. 17:26.843 --> 17:45.825 [SPEAKER_02]: But instead, what will happen to the cause of justice and the masses of Negro people who have never experienced the warmth of economic security if I do not participate actively and courageously in the movement? 17:49.315 --> 17:50.616 [SPEAKER_02]: I can't be silent, man. 17:51.377 --> 17:53.500 [SPEAKER_02]: You can't be silent about the stuff that matters. 17:53.800 --> 17:54.361 [SPEAKER_02]: And I get it. 17:55.102 --> 18:00.828 [SPEAKER_02]: But here's the thing, if they're gonna come for you, they're gonna come for you. 18:01.869 --> 18:03.031 [SPEAKER_07]: Whether your silence or not. 18:03.992 --> 18:09.078 [SPEAKER_02]: Right, if you damned if you're doing your damned if you don't, then by God, damn it, do it for the right reasons. 18:09.318 --> 18:12.842 [SPEAKER_02]: Literally, by the way, that is something that my own mother taught me. 18:13.953 --> 18:22.929 [SPEAKER_02]: When I was in elementary school, and I don't go into it too much, but I remember that I didn't do something, and I felt bad about it, and I told her about it. 18:22.949 --> 18:23.911 [SPEAKER_02]: She said, why don't you speak up? 18:25.073 --> 18:30.563 [SPEAKER_02]: I said, well, you know, blah, blah, blah, she read me the right act. 18:30.823 --> 18:33.548 [SPEAKER_02]: I must have been second or third grade, and she read me the right act. 18:36.245 --> 18:44.877 [SPEAKER_02]: If you've been in radio, if you know somebody's been radio, you and I have both been in radio and you know, well, I probably know more radio ability. 18:44.898 --> 18:45.659 [SPEAKER_02]: You too. 18:45.679 --> 18:45.779 [SPEAKER_02]: Okay. 18:47.481 --> 18:53.750 [SPEAKER_02]: If you know somebody's been in radio and they haven't been fired or quit, then they haven't actually been in radio long enough. 18:55.853 --> 19:00.720 [SPEAKER_02]: You quit from steps because you had other things you had other responsibilities. 19:00.740 --> 19:05.307 [SPEAKER_02]: That's important. 19:06.198 --> 19:18.277 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't know anybody in radio worth a damn who has not been fired or quit and especially ones who did it for good reasons for good cause. 19:19.339 --> 19:29.134 [SPEAKER_02]: Who stood up and said that ain't right and the boss has said you're fired I mean what okay by it matters speaking of matters. 19:29.587 --> 19:33.931 [SPEAKER_02]: And I understand that we want to be a big welcoming and open tent. 19:33.951 --> 19:35.313 [SPEAKER_02]: Gavin Newsom last week. 19:36.454 --> 19:39.697 [SPEAKER_02]: So once again, he had Ben Shapiro and I think we mentioned that on Friday. 19:40.097 --> 19:44.121 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, which he was such a suck-up to Shapiro. 19:44.162 --> 19:45.543 [SPEAKER_02]: And it's his house, man. 19:45.863 --> 19:48.566 [SPEAKER_07]: Dad, it's your show, it's your show, you can do whatever you want. 19:48.826 --> 19:50.488 [SPEAKER_07]: It's your baby. 19:51.409 --> 19:55.172 [SPEAKER_02]: Also, Gavin Newsom's governor and Ben Shapiro is just an idiot. 19:55.653 --> 19:58.716 [SPEAKER_02]: So there's that, too. 20:00.248 --> 20:10.959 [SPEAKER_02]: The whole thing is he kept, you know, he does that thing that some of these weak saws Democrats do. 20:11.320 --> 20:16.165 [SPEAKER_02]: And there are weak saws Democrats that are further left and there are weak saws Democrats that are centers. 20:16.185 --> 20:21.130 [SPEAKER_02]: So don't just think that being further left makes you strong because that's not necessarily the case either. 20:22.772 --> 20:30.120 [SPEAKER_02]: There are weak saws 20:30.927 --> 20:32.809 [SPEAKER_02]: We want to get them in the tent. 20:34.672 --> 20:39.298 [SPEAKER_02]: He was weak sauce about the, the, the, the tax that we're talking about. 20:39.318 --> 20:40.179 [SPEAKER_02]: The millionaires tax. 20:40.679 --> 20:41.881 [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, I understand it because. 20:42.882 --> 20:48.349 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, but there was also a weak sauce about trans issues again, which I was like, Dammit Gavin. 20:48.369 --> 20:51.313 [SPEAKER_02]: He needs to need to really just pick a side. 20:52.114 --> 20:53.195 [SPEAKER_02]: One of the reasons I like J.V. 20:53.215 --> 20:54.537 [SPEAKER_02]: Pritzker is that J.V. 20:54.557 --> 21:00.765 [SPEAKER_02]: Pritzker says what he says. 21:02.298 --> 21:09.688 [SPEAKER_02]: He's not offensive while doing it, but he just, he's like, well, you know, water is wet, and that makes him bad. 21:10.029 --> 21:10.429 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, too bad. 21:10.669 --> 21:11.310 [SPEAKER_02]: Have a nice day. 21:11.330 --> 21:12.953 [SPEAKER_07]: Well, I mean, so is Andy Bashir. 21:13.013 --> 21:14.254 [SPEAKER_07]: I mean, there's a few out there. 21:14.314 --> 21:15.216 [SPEAKER_07]: Andy Bashir's great. 21:15.696 --> 21:16.718 [SPEAKER_02]: Andy Bashir's not too bad. 21:16.738 --> 21:19.261 [SPEAKER_02]: He's a little more centers than I like, but, you know, not too bad. 21:19.281 --> 21:20.163 [SPEAKER_02]: There's some independence. 21:21.424 --> 21:22.786 [SPEAKER_02]: I've talked about Paul Reichoff before. 21:23.026 --> 21:27.833 [SPEAKER_02]: Paul and I've gotten into it on social media before, but I do like Paul because he does speak up. 21:27.880 --> 21:28.722 [SPEAKER_02]: Hmm. 21:28.742 --> 21:32.048 [SPEAKER_02]: Even when I disagree, I'm at least glad that he's out there and speaking up. 21:32.088 --> 21:34.372 [SPEAKER_02]: He's always speaking up for the troops. 21:35.334 --> 21:44.732 [SPEAKER_02]: For him, that is his primary objective is to take care of members of the military, like he and I both once were. 21:45.774 --> 21:49.021 [SPEAKER_02]: And while I don't always agree, I'm glad that he is out speaking up. 21:49.041 --> 21:49.281 [SPEAKER_02]: Right. 21:51.218 --> 21:57.083 [SPEAKER_02]: But there are so many of these folks out there who are gutless turrets, who, oh, well Donald's being weird. 21:57.143 --> 22:00.146 [SPEAKER_02]: God, who was it, was it, Rocky Mountain Mike? 22:00.266 --> 22:03.549 [SPEAKER_02]: Or maybe it was, maybe it was John on Wall of Socialism. 22:03.569 --> 22:06.272 [SPEAKER_02]: Or I don't know, he said something about, no, no, it was rude punnet. 22:06.372 --> 22:06.952 [SPEAKER_02]: That's who it was. 22:08.013 --> 22:18.863 [SPEAKER_02]: Who said, isn't an amazing, that Donald is basically throwing this giant fit, practically in a bloat the world because he wants Greenland and there are so many people who are just going, eh, well, that's just the way it is. 22:20.885 --> 22:22.387 [SPEAKER_02]: No, it's not the way it is. 22:23.828 --> 22:27.492 [SPEAKER_07]: Well, the people that are doing that are in this country, not outside of this country. 22:28.594 --> 22:33.038 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, well, I mean, there are some outside of this country, but many of them are comfortable. 22:35.681 --> 22:45.272 [SPEAKER_02]: Except, even if you're comfortable, if you're comfortable in your church or your mosque or your synagogue or your workspace or wherever. 22:45.775 --> 22:50.861 [SPEAKER_02]: You're comfortable for whatever reason, and you go, man, that ain't right, but I'm not going to say anything. 22:53.003 --> 22:55.966 [SPEAKER_02]: If you don't say something, it will come back to you. 22:56.967 --> 22:59.710 [SPEAKER_02]: It will come back to you multiple times over. 23:00.912 --> 23:09.041 [SPEAKER_02]: And if you're inevitably the person, in your family or with your friend group, are you the person that has to clean stuff up, Jodie? 23:09.261 --> 23:09.982 [SPEAKER_07]: What do you mean by that? 23:10.783 --> 23:11.243 [SPEAKER_02]: Like, 23:13.518 --> 23:21.572 [SPEAKER_02]: You see something that one of your siblings or one of your friends does where you're like, hey man, you know, and you could advise them and you know they'll listen to you and they'll probably go, okay. 23:22.313 --> 23:26.921 [SPEAKER_02]: But, you know, when you were younger, you were like, okay, whatever you do stuff, you saw it, you're like whatever, and you leave it. 23:27.763 --> 23:28.705 [SPEAKER_02]: And then it comes back. 23:29.045 --> 23:34.054 [SPEAKER_02]: A few years later, and they come back and they go, this whole problem in my life is broken and I need you to fix it. 23:34.094 --> 23:37.500 [SPEAKER_02]: And now it's a monster problem whereas before it was just a small problem. 23:38.712 --> 23:42.156 [SPEAKER_07]: No, I mean, most of my friends are not that stupid. 23:44.939 --> 23:45.419 [SPEAKER_02]: You're lucky. 23:45.539 --> 23:48.262 [SPEAKER_02]: I've had friends and family over the years and co-workers. 23:48.943 --> 23:52.947 [SPEAKER_02]: I am inevitably the person where somebody's like, this is broken, fix it for me. 23:55.610 --> 24:04.419 [SPEAKER_02]: And oftentimes I do, because I just have this ability to look forward in time and know that if I don't fix it, it will come back. 24:04.459 --> 24:06.441 [SPEAKER_02]: And it'll be an even bigger problem. 24:07.180 --> 24:09.503 [SPEAKER_02]: So I at least do what I can. 24:09.564 --> 24:11.386 [SPEAKER_02]: There are some things that you can't fix. 24:11.406 --> 24:13.269 [SPEAKER_02]: You have to let people sometimes fail. 24:14.010 --> 24:15.552 [SPEAKER_02]: But there are things that you can do. 24:15.633 --> 24:16.674 [SPEAKER_02]: And you should do them. 24:16.694 --> 24:20.720 [SPEAKER_02]: And one of the easiest things to do sometimes is just stand it up and say it's something. 24:21.581 --> 24:23.945 [SPEAKER_02]: Somebody has something stupid you go, that's dumb. 24:24.325 --> 24:25.647 [SPEAKER_02]: You're stupid for saying that. 24:26.849 --> 24:30.595 [SPEAKER_02]: Or in whatever way that will get through to them. 24:30.615 --> 24:32.618 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 24:32.638 --> 24:33.559 [SPEAKER_02]: And, and, and, and, and, and, and, and, 24:34.805 --> 24:37.908 [SPEAKER_02]: One of the ways that I've done this in the past. 24:38.569 --> 24:58.568 [SPEAKER_02]: So when I've had new bosses, corporate situations, Walmart, Target, whatever, I use my journalism skills and I research them and their families, their kids, and their schools, and they're the where the spouses work, and what their favorite clothes are, and these kind of people go, God, that seems kind of spooky, I go, it's not spooky. 24:59.448 --> 25:03.192 [SPEAKER_02]: Because when I want to get their attention, 25:04.268 --> 25:15.988 [SPEAKER_02]: You know, an example I will use, which I won't use details of, but you know, when I was back in Nebraska and there was some stuff going on under particular neighborhood, my boss was like, yeah, you know, no big deal. 25:16.008 --> 25:25.163 [SPEAKER_02]: And I said, you realize that like a lot of the kids that walk right by your kid school walk right by your house is like three blocks from where this particular thing is and he's like, 25:25.767 --> 25:33.195 [SPEAKER_02]: You know where I live, I said, I know where a lot of people live, but I said the important thing is it's in your neighborhood and you don't seem to care and you could do something about it. 25:33.476 --> 25:37.520 [SPEAKER_02]: So I'm just saying, if something happens, don't bitch to me about it. 25:37.901 --> 25:42.126 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm telling you about it, I'm telling you where it is and I'm telling you in such a way it'll get through to you. 25:43.167 --> 25:48.593 [SPEAKER_02]: You don't like it, it happens to you, it happens to you kid, don't come crying to me about it. 25:49.794 --> 25:54.019 [SPEAKER_02]: He's mad about it first, 25:54.640 --> 25:59.347 [SPEAKER_02]: I would have ignored you if you just, you know, kind of, but you put it as three blocks away. 25:59.367 --> 26:00.689 [SPEAKER_02]: You put it as near my kid in school. 26:01.550 --> 26:02.592 [SPEAKER_02]: You put it in a way that got through it. 26:02.612 --> 26:04.254 [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, you put it in a way that communicated to me. 26:05.536 --> 26:05.676 [UNKNOWN]: Mm-hmm. 26:05.696 --> 26:05.837 [SPEAKER_02]: Mm-hmm. 26:05.857 --> 26:06.077 [SPEAKER_02]: Good. 26:07.339 --> 26:08.340 [SPEAKER_02]: I didn't have to say anything. 26:08.761 --> 26:09.181 [SPEAKER_02]: That's right. 26:09.201 --> 26:09.742 [SPEAKER_02]: Make a mad. 26:10.003 --> 26:11.565 [SPEAKER_02]: Didn't have to have a bad day work that day. 26:12.627 --> 26:14.149 [SPEAKER_02]: But I did because I gave it down. 26:16.092 --> 26:16.232 [SPEAKER_02]: Mm-hmm. 26:16.252 --> 26:23.803 [SPEAKER_02]: So, a whole lot of people in this country have been silent for a very long time. 26:25.083 --> 26:39.281 [SPEAKER_02]: Right, but that's why through kids and they will always like I said in radio, when a new radio company comes in, the people are seeing it all the time and retail, they've seen it in manufacturing. 26:39.321 --> 26:40.622 [SPEAKER_02]: They've seen it in banking. 26:41.563 --> 26:43.746 [SPEAKER_02]: Somebody comes in and buys the company. 26:43.786 --> 26:48.272 [SPEAKER_02]: And the new company comes in and they go, oh, well, you know, they meet the people and they go, well, we kind of like you. 26:48.292 --> 26:49.513 [SPEAKER_02]: We'll probably get rid of the other people. 26:49.713 --> 26:50.955 [SPEAKER_02]: We're not going to get rid of you. 26:51.863 --> 26:52.224 [SPEAKER_02]: really. 26:53.266 --> 26:53.827 [SPEAKER_02]: You trust them. 26:54.528 --> 26:56.432 [SPEAKER_02]: They come up for everybody else in your office. 26:57.153 --> 26:58.757 [SPEAKER_02]: You don't think they got me come for you, too. 27:01.442 --> 27:08.296 [SPEAKER_02]: If they're coming for you and they are, then you need to be ready and you need to say something and you need to be a good neighbor. 27:08.676 --> 27:10.861 [SPEAKER_02]: You need to be paying attention and working with your neighbors. 27:10.881 --> 27:12.083 [SPEAKER_02]: Get to know your neighbors. 27:12.890 --> 27:18.158 [SPEAKER_02]: The most basic thing of all, you said you had some friends hanging out this this weekend. 27:18.658 --> 27:21.362 [SPEAKER_02]: You've done it in neighbors too, just gone over to their house. 27:21.542 --> 27:21.923 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh yeah. 27:22.604 --> 27:23.625 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 27:23.645 --> 27:24.386 [SPEAKER_02]: Most basic thing. 27:24.427 --> 27:25.148 [SPEAKER_02]: Get to know your neighbors. 27:26.429 --> 27:30.455 [SPEAKER_07]: I know pretty much almost certainly everybody on my block. 27:31.977 --> 27:32.278 [SPEAKER_02]: Let's see. 27:32.318 --> 27:35.542 [SPEAKER_02]: I could tell you, dog, no dog, no dog, cat. 27:35.623 --> 27:39.528 [SPEAKER_02]: He used to have a dog, no dog, no dog, dog, cat. 27:40.870 --> 27:42.272 [SPEAKER_02]: That's just going down my hallway. 27:42.488 --> 28:03.552 [SPEAKER_07]: knowing animals we have two cats dog empty lot but they had a dog no dogs dog on our side of the street then across the street Michael has a dog two dogs no dogs as far as I know or cats as far I don't know about cats other than us no dog dog dog 28:05.523 --> 28:24.966 [SPEAKER_02]: and we know most of those the animals names now unfortunately sometimes we don't want to remember that the people's names that's just like with kids where it's like you know you're like um now happened to know spooners dad is is Jim but um there are a number of the the dogs in the neighborhood here who I don't know they're you know 28:25.250 --> 28:29.015 [SPEAKER_02]: It's, it's, you know, someone says, mom, or someone says that's how I am. 28:29.275 --> 28:33.621 [SPEAKER_07]: I mean, if like when I go to the neighborhoods where I walk, I just hear dogs and names. 28:33.981 --> 28:34.241 [SPEAKER_02]: Right. 28:34.302 --> 28:43.874 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't always remember that, but that's okay because many of them say the same thing in the other direction, but they know you well enough, and they know you and they know the people and the things that you care about. 28:43.914 --> 28:45.576 [SPEAKER_02]: If you're walking, you know, they know that. 28:45.596 --> 28:48.760 [SPEAKER_02]: They know, hey, you got your niece's dog, you know, you're hanging out. 28:49.752 --> 28:52.455 [SPEAKER_02]: And that is just a very basic getting to know your neighbors. 28:52.475 --> 28:53.657 [SPEAKER_02]: That's being a good neighbor. 28:54.257 --> 29:11.538 [SPEAKER_02]: And it's important that you be a good neighbor now while things are maybe okay in your neighborhood, because ask our friends up in the cities or in DC or in LA, because when not if they come, then you got to know your neighbors even more. 29:11.838 --> 29:15.102 [SPEAKER_02]: So get to know your neighbors now, make life a little bit easier. 29:15.622 --> 29:17.469 [SPEAKER_02]: and you don't be afraid to speak up, man. 29:17.489 --> 29:22.991 [SPEAKER_02]: Cause that is one of the most important lessons Dr. King taught all of us. 29:23.452 --> 29:26.745 [SPEAKER_02]: Speak up now, it's important you do. 29:27.586 --> 29:30.009 [SPEAKER_02]: Speaking of kings, we got a queen. 29:30.029 --> 29:31.572 [SPEAKER_02]: We're going to be talking about that as well. 29:32.172 --> 29:36.539 [SPEAKER_02]: I think I'm pretty sure this particular queen liked Dr. King. 29:37.019 --> 29:39.843 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm sure she said I'm pretty sure he probably like her as well. 29:39.943 --> 29:43.328 [SPEAKER_02]: So it's a, well, we, we will talk about if you're subscribing.

so many amazing things. 32:30.529 --> 32:35.374 [SPEAKER_02]: We were talking before the show and I was like, I was of two minds about this today. 32:35.394 --> 32:38.937 [SPEAKER_02]: Because I remember that I was like, I could swear that she'd done something with Carol. 32:39.017 --> 32:42.120 [SPEAKER_02]: And then I'm like, nah, no, no, no, you just, you know, your brains put that together. 32:42.140 --> 32:43.221 [SPEAKER_02]: And I was like, no, no, I think so. 32:43.261 --> 32:44.202 [SPEAKER_02]: So I just googled quick. 32:44.922 --> 32:47.845 [SPEAKER_02]: Literally all I googled was Carol and 32:49.141 --> 32:52.685 [SPEAKER_02]: and it pulled up like a bunch of clips from their special. 32:53.666 --> 32:53.806 [SPEAKER_02]: Mm-hmm. 32:53.826 --> 32:54.267 [SPEAKER_02]: What's your life? 32:54.287 --> 32:55.488 [SPEAKER_07]: Dolly Carroll and Nashville. 32:55.789 --> 32:58.472 [SPEAKER_07]: They taped it in January of 79. 32:58.572 --> 33:04.879 [SPEAKER_02]: Okay, but the fact that I can literally type in three words, Carroll and Dolly and it goes, poof, here you go. 33:06.501 --> 33:06.661 [UNKNOWN]: Mm-hmm. 33:06.761 --> 33:08.904 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, that was pretty cool. 33:09.264 --> 33:11.186 [SPEAKER_02]: Anyway, so it's- It's a kid's special. 33:11.487 --> 33:14.510 [SPEAKER_07]: If y'all haven't seen it, I think the whole thing is up on YouTube. 33:14.530 --> 33:15.972 [SPEAKER_07]: It's a sweet, it's a sweet special. 33:16.652 --> 33:17.173 [SPEAKER_02]: Cool. 33:17.491 --> 33:19.114 [SPEAKER_02]: She is she is

33:32.241 [SPEAKER_07]: I have it on vinyl and a CD. 33:32.802 --> 33:33.223 [SPEAKER_02]: Nice. 33:33.383 --> 33:34.646 [SPEAKER_07]: There's some good collabs in there. 33:34.826 --> 33:35.808 [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, that's great. 33:35.888 --> 33:36.710 [SPEAKER_07]: She's fantastic. 33:36.730 --> 33:38.073 [SPEAKER_07]: I mean she sings with Anne Wilson. 33:38.253 --> 33:39.195 [SPEAKER_07]: I mean 33:39.513 --> 33:46.300 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yeah, Dalai, Dalai can do a whole lot of things also by the way, Dalai literally saved people's lives. 33:46.320 --> 33:46.780 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, she did. 33:47.100 --> 33:47.941 [SPEAKER_02]: Madonna, thank you. 33:48.462 --> 33:48.962 [SPEAKER_02]: Exactly. 33:49.323 --> 33:49.943 [SPEAKER_02]: Thank you, Dalai. 33:50.684 --> 33:55.128 [SPEAKER_02]: So anybody who, I swear, anybody who doesn't like Dalai pardon, I'm like, what the hell, man? 33:55.168 --> 33:58.571 [SPEAKER_02]: That's, that's just not being anti-patriotic. 33:58.612 --> 34:00.373 [SPEAKER_02]: That's, that's being anti-human. 34:00.593 --> 34:01.995 [SPEAKER_02]: How do you not like Dalai? 34:02.015 --> 34:04.157 [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, she's, she's, she's America's sweetheart. 34:04.217 --> 34:05.318 [SPEAKER_07]: You can't not like her. 34:05.652 --> 34:24.117 [SPEAKER_02]: exactly exactly which is one of the reasons that we did you know celebrating her birthday today so and she's 80 she's young she's got a lot of years she's she's still kicking ass man exactly uh... what happens to be in a jolly in the bittersweet cocktail july 34:24.097 --> 34:29.868 [SPEAKER_07]: Well, you're in Nina Mixing Glass, a shot glass, a barspoon, some ice, an old fashioned glass. 34:29.908 --> 34:31.070 [SPEAKER_07]: That's where the drink goes. 34:31.130 --> 34:34.777 [SPEAKER_07]: Um, you need one and three quarter ounces of Scotch whiskey. 34:35.599 --> 34:40.688 [SPEAKER_07]: It calls for Aberfeldy 12, which is a single malt, just 34:42.001 --> 34:44.605 [SPEAKER_07]: anything that's a single month, just do that. 34:44.685 --> 34:45.566 [SPEAKER_07]: It's going to taste better. 34:45.646 --> 34:53.057 [SPEAKER_07]: I mean, a quality blended Scotch will be okay, but if you can get a good single mall, it doesn't have to be 25 years older or 50 years old, but a decent single mall. 34:53.077 --> 34:53.458 [SPEAKER_02]: Right. 34:53.478 --> 34:54.119 [SPEAKER_02]: Use what you got. 34:54.139 --> 34:58.325 [SPEAKER_02]: We have a lot of you guys to reach out to us on Facebook and other social platforms. 34:58.345 --> 35:01.390 [SPEAKER_02]: You're like, hey, you know, had somebody over the weekend asking that, too. 35:01.410 --> 35:04.414 [SPEAKER_02]: And they're like, hey, kind of, you know, I don't quite have all of it. 35:04.394 --> 35:05.355 [SPEAKER_02]: use what you got. 35:05.635 --> 35:12.783 [SPEAKER_02]: If you want to go out and get other stuff from your your favorite local store, that's fine, or you know, from where you're favorite online store or whatever, we ain't judging. 35:12.883 --> 35:15.606 [SPEAKER_02]: But if you got stuff, I mean, it's about the flavor. 35:16.026 --> 35:18.749 [SPEAKER_02]: And it's also about to some degree what you've got on hand. 35:18.989 --> 35:19.209 [SPEAKER_02]: Right. 35:19.289 --> 35:19.890 [SPEAKER_07]: So right. 35:20.250 --> 35:20.751 [SPEAKER_07]: Absolutely. 35:21.251 --> 35:29.760 [SPEAKER_07]: So once you picked out your whiskey, get three quarters of an ounce of fresh lemon juice, three quarters of an ounce of honey ginger, syrup. 35:29.740 --> 35:38.788 [SPEAKER_07]: Okay, a teaspoon of yellow-sharp truce, a teaspoon of Amaro Montenegro, one-third ounce of mezcal. 35:38.954 --> 35:41.396 [SPEAKER_02]: And I would hope you have a good mezcal sitting around at home. 35:41.416 --> 35:44.899 [SPEAKER_07]: Because that's a decent, it's a, it's a, it's a good teal tequila. 35:44.919 --> 35:46.461 [SPEAKER_07]: And then you garnish with an orange twist. 35:46.621 --> 35:58.872 [SPEAKER_07]: So what you do is add all the ingredients except for the mezcal to the mixing glass add ice and stir it to chill it, strain that into an old fashioned glass with ice, preferably a giant large cube. 35:59.372 --> 36:06.379 [SPEAKER_07]: But if you don't have that, don't stress, it is, it's, there's a reason, it's how it's, there's a reason for it, but don't worry about that. 36:06.399 --> 36:06.619 [SPEAKER_07]: Right. 36:06.699 --> 36:07.600 [SPEAKER_07]: Right. 36:08.841 --> 36:08.961 [UNKNOWN]: Right. 36:08.941 --> 36:14.028 [SPEAKER_07]: You take your bar spoon and you float the tequila on top of the mezcal on top. 36:14.048 --> 36:18.695 [SPEAKER_07]: You just kind of pour over the spoon and it just kind of drips over and floats. 36:19.576 --> 36:22.300 [SPEAKER_07]: Because you want, I guess the first sip you really want the tequila to hit. 36:22.320 --> 36:22.480 [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah. 36:23.381 --> 36:24.122 [SPEAKER_07]: That makes sense. 36:24.142 --> 36:25.044 [SPEAKER_07]: Because that's why you do that. 36:26.045 --> 36:28.148 [SPEAKER_07]: That's the first flavor that you're going to get. 36:28.128 --> 36:30.490 [SPEAKER_02]: And then, as it sits there, it'll mix in. 36:30.570 --> 36:31.771 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, eventually it'll mix. 36:31.791 --> 36:32.592 [SPEAKER_02]: Let's go get the picture there. 36:32.712 --> 36:33.232 [SPEAKER_07]: Exactly. 36:33.292 --> 36:35.854 [SPEAKER_07]: And then you express your twist and add it to the glass. 36:35.935 --> 36:39.878 [SPEAKER_07]: So it sounds like it sounds like a drink, so don't have more than one. 36:40.678 --> 36:41.399 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, exactly. 36:41.419 --> 36:42.620 [SPEAKER_02]: These are the bad foods in there. 36:42.820 -->

not career ending with sucks, but it's not career ending, which is always worse. 39:39.123 --> 39:42.908 [SPEAKER_07]: I mean, a season ender, especially now is just awful for them, but I don't care. 39:42.928 --> 39:45.872 [SPEAKER_07]: I don't want them to win anyway. 39:45.892 --> 39:48.835 [SPEAKER_07]: Of course, I want the Patriots to beat them either, so there's an issue. 39:50.457 --> 39:56.044 [SPEAKER_02]: Buffalo bills, by the way, nine seasons got rid of Sean McDermott this morning. 39:56.205 --> 39:56.605 [SPEAKER_02]: I heard 39:57.783 --> 40:06.031 [SPEAKER_02]: I get it, but to me, in some ways, I think that's overblown in sports these days, whether it's baseball or football or basketball, whatever it is. 40:06.091 --> 40:09.654 [SPEAKER_02]: It seems to be, at the end of the season, by God, we didn't win a whole thing. 40:10.074 --> 40:10.515 [SPEAKER_02]: It's fire them. 40:10.935 --> 40:14.098 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm like, that's just dumb. 40:14.899 --> 40:17.622 [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, among other things, dude got you in a playoff. 40:17.702 --> 40:21.125 [SPEAKER_02]: Dude got you significantly into the playoffs, but you're like, nope. 40:22.066 --> 40:22.686 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, okay. 40:23.527 --> 40:26.710 [SPEAKER_02]: If there's somebody out there that you have the money for, 40:27.145 --> 40:34.596 [SPEAKER_02]: And that you think would work pretty good with at least some of the players you have because you ain't going to get rid of all the players you ain't got that kind of money, Buffalo. 40:35.497 --> 40:39.283 [SPEAKER_02]: Okay, maybe, but there are a lot of teams. 40:39.303 --> 40:41.005 [SPEAKER_02]: That just seems to be the default these days of. 40:41.165 --> 40:41.366 [SPEAKER_02]: Nope. 40:42.207 --> 40:42.527 [SPEAKER_02]: Forget it. 40:43.389 --> 40:43.529 [SPEAKER_02]: Fire. 40:44.450 --> 40:46.213 [SPEAKER_02]: But it is as dumb as Donald Trump. 40:46.653 --> 40:51.360 [SPEAKER_07]: It's sure it's decided to, I mean, you know, if it can be very short-sighted. 40:51.400 --> 40:51.921 [SPEAKER_07]: So, 40:52.660 --> 40:54.769 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's, to me, it's just dumb. 40:55.431 --> 41:00.592 [SPEAKER_02]: Also, Patriots did win over Texans, Rams beat the bears in a nail biter overtime. 41:00.673 --> 41:02.721 [SPEAKER_02]: That was, ah, just. 41:02.954 --> 41:04.336 [SPEAKER_02]: Sorry for your

[SPEAKER_07]: Now I have to root for the ram. 41:10.203 --> 41:13.247 [SPEAKER_07]: So I see I can't. 41:13.447 --> 41:15.770 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm just like, you know, cat cat. 41:15.830 --> 41:17.332 [SPEAKER_02]: I was able to have a great watch party. 41:17.813 --> 41:20.396 [SPEAKER_02]: And then it was, ah, they were disappointed. 41:20.436 --> 41:21.417 [SPEAKER_02]: So I'm sorry. 41:21.678 --> 41:23.680 [SPEAKER_07]: The bears tried to troll LA. 41:24.942 --> 41:26.043 [SPEAKER_07]: So what do you mean the team? 41:26.364 --> 41:26.824 [SPEAKER_07]: The team. 41:26.864 --> 41:27.906

that. 41:36.856 --> 41:37.858 [SPEAKER_02]: It's friendly rivalry. 41:37.918 --> 41:38.418 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't mind that. 41:38.438 --> 41:42.183 [SPEAKER_02]: Speaking of which, by the way, going

45:18.609 --> 45:27.181 [SPEAKER_02]: We did talk obviously a good bit in that first hour about Martin Luther King day because it is his holiday and I realize that a lot of people give it a short shift. 45:27.902 --> 45:31.287 [SPEAKER_02]: But I think that Dr. King has some great things to say. 45:31.347 --> 45:34.291 [SPEAKER_02]: I think that there are a lot of people who need to be listened to him even now. 45:35.213 --> 45:42.964 [SPEAKER_02]: And I wish more people were including the people who unfortunately have been allowing some of this ridiculousness. 45:44.598 --> 45:48.607 [SPEAKER_02]: So which ridiculous do you want to start with the form of the domestic ridiculousness? 45:49.269 --> 45:49.510 [SPEAKER_02]: This now. 45:52.376 --> 45:55.504 [SPEAKER_07]: How

on tap today, Donald Trump. 46:01.979 --> 46:08.850 [SPEAKER_02]: Was it was it last night this morning something like that when he wrote to Yonus? 46:09.430 --> 46:28.780 [SPEAKER_02]: Yes, we've got several of the pieces in the third round today Actually have the full text of his absolute ass-in-ine ridiculousness So he wrote this letter To the was the prime minister of Norway Yonus Garstorn 46:29.620 --> 46:37.320 [SPEAKER_02]: Okay, if you missed the letter, this is literally what the president of the United States wrote to the leader of another country. 46:37.500 --> 46:39.646 [SPEAKER_02]: They remember this is Norway, not Denmark. 46:39.786 --> 46:40.167 [SPEAKER_02]: Right. 46:40.187 --> 46:40.729 [SPEAKER_02]: Thank you. 46:42.032 --> 46:43.456 [SPEAKER_02]: Denmark controls Greenland. 46:44.198 --> 46:46.684 [SPEAKER_02]: He's right in the prime minister of Norway. 46:46.850 --> 47:03.559 [SPEAKER_02]: And Trump writes, Dear Jonas, considering your country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped eight wars plus, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America. 47:03.539 --> 47:08.044 [SPEAKER_02]: Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a right of ownership anyway? 47:08.284 --> 47:09.406 [SPEAKER_02]: There are no written documents. 47:09.426 --> 47:12.910 [SPEAKER_02]: It's only about the land of their hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there also. 47:13.250 --> 47:15.673 [SPEAKER_02]: I have done more for NATO than any person since it's founding. 47:15.693 --> 47:17.535 [SPEAKER_02]: And now NATO should do something for the United States. 47:17.815 --> 47:21.379 [SPEAKER_02]: The world is not secure unless we have complete and total control of Greenland. 47:21.399 --> 47:23.862 [SPEAKER_02]: Thank you, President DJ Jerry. 47:23.882 --> 47:25.564 [SPEAKER_07]: We have a base on Greenland. 47:26.287 --> 47:32.896 [SPEAKER_02]: We actually have, uh, at least 16 bases, mothballed and because of the way that the, uh, rights have been written. 47:33.657 --> 47:41.967 [SPEAKER_02]: We at any point in time, all we got to do is notify Greenland and Denmark and be like, hey, we want to reopen one of these bases and they're like, co, that's how the agreement's written. 47:42.448 --> 47:52.581 [SPEAKER_02]: So if we, why do we need to own the land, other than the interview here recently, whichever one of them that was that we're Donald said, I feel I have to have the 47:54.620 --> 47:55.845 [SPEAKER_07]: He's a little raky about it. 47:56.447 --> 47:59.821 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, he's he's a little raky and he's childish as hell. 47:59.841 --> 48:04.258 [SPEAKER_07]: I wanted a piece of bread, so I'm in a minute. 48:04.795 --> 48:08.720 [SPEAKER_07]: There are so many words in my head, I'm not allowed to say. 48:09.201 --> 48:16.450 [SPEAKER_02]: Look, look, look, I have no problem saying that, and I know not everybody believes this, but I have no problem saying that somebody should have spanked him. 48:16.770 --> 48:20.876 [SPEAKER_02]: Should have spanked him back then, should have disciplined him severely. 48:21.436 --> 48:24.080 [SPEAKER_07]: I think he got disciplined in military school, I'm sure he did. 48:24.360 --> 48:26.683 [SPEAKER_07]: Oh, and he hated that, I can guarantee that. 48:26.703 --> 48:28.525 [SPEAKER_07]: The problem was he wasn't loved as a child. 48:30.368 --> 48:31.389 [SPEAKER_02]: True, true. 48:31.549 --> 48:33.672 [SPEAKER_07]: He was given everything, but that's not love. 48:33.787 --> 48:53.179 [SPEAKER_02]: Look, Donald Trump is a perfect reason for abortion, because if you can't love a child, then you shouldn't have them because honestly, if you have them and you don't love them, look what they turn into, look what they turn into. 48:54.323 --> 49:21.057 [SPEAKER_02]: his brother died because he was an alcoholic because his parents didn't love him right you know I mean and Donald decided not to be an alcoholic just to be in a hole instead yeah and he's taking it out on all of us yes once again joddy is right but yeah no that's looked at that is that is the long and the short of it um so Donald said that stupid asked letter so which is caused look they they had an emergency meeting 49:21.661 --> 49:32.177 [SPEAKER_02]: Uh, the EU heads, the EU leaders, and they are now considering unprecedented retaliatory measures, everybody is saying, who knows the people over there who knows the situation. 49:32.758 --> 49:38.768 [SPEAKER_02]: The European leaders are all saying, look, man, he is off his freaking rock. 49:38.928 --> 49:46.199 [SPEAKER_02]: Yes, he's nuts, but he is your president, America, where to hell are you Americans? 49:46.520 --> 49:49.204 [SPEAKER_07]: Well, where the hell are the Senate and the House? 49:49.437 --> 49:50.198 [SPEAKER_02]: 100%. 49:50.478 --> 49:53.763 [SPEAKER_07]: They're the ones that could bring this in, along with the Supreme Court. 49:54.384 --> 49:54.584 [SPEAKER_02]: Yes. 49:55.025 --> 49:59.591 [SPEAKER_02]: And especially all your Republicans who are like, then I don't want to think anything because he's going to be mad at me. 49:59.611 --> 50:00.032 [SPEAKER_02]: Don't care. 50:00.793 --> 50:00.953 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 50:00.973 --> 50:01.814 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, not only that. 50:01.934 --> 50:02.795 [SPEAKER_02]: It doesn't matter anyway. 50:02.815 --> 50:12.829 [SPEAKER_02]: If you go down to the election land section in the news on tab, Trump has attacked Louisiana Senator Bill Cassidy by backing a potential challenger to Cassidy. 50:13.298 --> 50:21.835 [SPEAKER_02]: He already Trump said if this this a woman who's now a member of the House, she's thinking about running for Senate and he said, Oh, if she runs for Senate, she'll have my 100% backing. 50:21.855 --> 50:23.241 [SPEAKER_02]: Bill Cassidy. 50:23.339 --> 50:34.755 [SPEAKER_02]: sacrificed everything including practically nobody's pushed it but if they wanted to push it it could be questionable if he'd have his medical license because he voted for RFKJ. 50:34.775 --> 50:39.942 [SPEAKER_02]: He sure did and he's a doctor right and he knows better than a voter for that idiot. 50:40.022 --> 50:43.387 [SPEAKER_02]: He does it for me because he was trying to appease Donald. 50:43.607 --> 50:51.118 [SPEAKER_02]: He went oh I'm just trying to appease Donald appease meant never works. 50:51.554 --> 50:52.836 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, no, exactly. 50:52.996 --> 50:53.718 [SPEAKER_02]: Joe, you're right again. 50:53.758 --> 51:00.469 [SPEAKER_02]: And look, that exactly is proof that you cannot satisfy this jackass. 51:01.611 --> 51:02.693 [SPEAKER_02]: No matter what you do. 51:03.434 --> 51:11.608 [SPEAKER_02]: So now that European leaders are, they're saying, especially to any American who's listening, they're like, look, you all need to rain this bastard in. 51:12.369 --> 51:14.913 [SPEAKER_02]: Because this is dangerous. 51:15.114 --> 51:16.015 [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, it is. 51:16.175 --> 51:17.157 [SPEAKER_07]: It's ridiculous. 51:17.626 --> 51:39.934 [SPEAKER_02]: Um, not only is it dangerous for, you know, all of the regular issues and things that we know, but so Donald threatens new tariffs on anybody, basically, who is citing with Denmark and Greenland, uh, in the fourth round of the news on tap on the Trumponomics is failing a new study confirms Americans of the ones who are paying for Trump's tariffs, not foreign nations. 51:39.954 --> 51:41.035 [SPEAKER_07]: Of course we are. 51:41.175 --> 51:41.335 [SPEAKER_07]: It's. 51:43.358 --> 51:45.000 [SPEAKER_07]: It's how tax is work. 51:45.402 --> 51:50.605 [SPEAKER_07]: It's a tax basically and there is good tariff policy and there's bad tariff policy. 51:50.625 --> 51:53.438 [SPEAKER_07]: He is not doing good tariff policy 51:54.143 --> 51:54.564 [SPEAKER_02]: correct. 51:55.225 --> 51:56.286 [SPEAKER_02]: Judges 100% right. 51:56.747 --> 51:57.408 [SPEAKER_02]: She's very smart. 51:57.608 --> 51:59.110 [SPEAKER_02]: It's one of the reasons I love hanging out over here. 51:59.671 --> 52:02.976 [SPEAKER_02]: But look, you are 100% correct. 52:03.636 --> 52:04.818 [SPEAKER_02]: And I just sit there and look at it. 52:04.878 --> 52:06.200 [SPEAKER_02]: And it's not doing what you wanted. 52:06.521 --> 52:08.223 [SPEAKER_02]: The second story in the Trumponomics is failing. 52:08.303 --> 52:10.847 [SPEAKER_02]: China's economy grew 5% last year. 52:11.508 --> 52:15.213 [SPEAKER_02]: Void by strong exports despite Trump's tariffs. 52:15.273 --> 52:18.177 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, because other countries are buying their stuff. 52:18.427 --> 52:23.193 [SPEAKER_02]: because other countries are going around the United States and going, you know, I've got some serious issues. 52:23.313 --> 52:25.135 [SPEAKER_02]: We'll just go gave him somebody else. 52:25.335 --> 52:29.660 [SPEAKER_07]: And also, if he does decide to attack, I, I've been dead. 52:30.061 --> 52:31.743 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm gonna do it by the, oh, I like the hat. 52:31.863 --> 52:34.907 [SPEAKER_07]: I did see it. 52:35.047 --> 52:35.147 [UNKNOWN]: Yeah. 52:35.167 --> 52:35.427 [SPEAKER_07]: All right. 52:35.447 --> 52:38.170 [SPEAKER_07]: Now, if he does decide to attack Greenland, guess what's gonna happen? 52:38.771 --> 52:38.911 [SPEAKER_06]: Oh. 52:38.971 --> 52:46.240 [SPEAKER_07]: People that are holding, have invested in T-Bills and other things in this country, you're gonna pull their money out of this country. 52:46.355 --> 52:54.906 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, but then and also remember the entire world economy, a most nations either have most or some of their economy resting on the US dollar. 52:55.186 --> 52:58.551 [SPEAKER_02]: So if that happens, the whole world goes crunch. 52:59.372 --> 53:16.193 [SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, we're having some interesting discussions about Donnie's temper tantrum with Denmark and his whole dumbass letter to the prime minister of Norway, which doesn't even own Greenland. 53:16.173 --> 53:22.825 [SPEAKER_01]: Um, having a tantrum about not getting an award and he's proving 53:23.041 --> 53:28.247 [SPEAKER_01]: that he didn't deserve that award by the things he's saying in his tantrum. 53:28.267 --> 53:30.110 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, I'm not inclined towards peace. 53:30.430 --> 53:36.918 [SPEAKER_01]: We are what kind of insane time letter we live in now. 53:37.919 --> 53:38.500 [SPEAKER_02]: So what? 53:38.880 --> 53:41.463 [SPEAKER_02]: So you write a nasty letter to the beef council. 53:41.904 --> 53:43.926 [SPEAKER_02]: And in the letter you say, you know what? 53:43.946 --> 53:45.208 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't even freaking like beef. 53:45.348 --> 53:46.129 [SPEAKER_02]: I prefer chicken. 53:46.269 --> 53:47.871 [SPEAKER_02]: You beef people suck. 53:47.911 --> 53:50.314 [SPEAKER_02]: Why did you give me the beef eater award anyway? 53:52.471 --> 54:05.653 [SPEAKER_01]: of a moron does that yeah it's uh it so we we are chuckling but I'm inside I'm like on fire yeah I just am in about it I've been feeling it kind of feels like 54:05.887 --> 54:17.170 [SPEAKER_01]: I know I just saw like in the past half hour, I saw that European Europe is going to have an emergency session about this. 54:17.370 --> 54:22.601 [SPEAKER_02]: Well, the European Parliament, yeah, and that's after the European leaders had their emergency session yesterday. 54:22.741 --> 54:26.950 [SPEAKER_07]: Aren't a bunch of leaders going to Davos and isn't Donald going, go get him arrest him. 54:27.031 --> 54:28.172 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, God, I would love it. 54:28.212 --> 54:28.973 [SPEAKER_02]: Yes, Donnie. 54:29.073 --> 54:33.598 [SPEAKER_02]: Donnie is going to Davos for those of you who do not know what Davos is. 54:33.658 --> 54:37.421 [SPEAKER_02]: So Davos is the annual meeting of the World Economic Forum. 54:37.502 --> 54:47.572 [SPEAKER_02]: It's a basically a giant economic think tank tends to focus on macroeconomic issues for world leaders and also to the benefit of the rich and powerful, often at the expense of other people. 54:47.672 --> 54:53.798 [SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, one of the most expensive places on earth. 54:53.778 --> 55:15.398 [SPEAKER_07]: And and he's I believe she has gone before on there are some other world leaders that aren't going in part because they're like well Donald's coming so we're not going to go because it's right what's the point and I if I'm we're calling right maybe we can somebody will let us know Then as well as part of the ICC which is a part of the hate he violated international law 55:15.378 --> 55:19.824 [SPEAKER_02]: Go get him. 55:19.844 --> 55:21.947 [SPEAKER_02]: I am with you a hundred percent on that, Jody. 55:21.967 --> 55:24.029 [SPEAKER_02]: I would love that if go get him. 55:24.190 --> 55:33.582 [SPEAKER_01]: Well, when I was what I was going to say was that I just even though Europe is it looks like they're trying to figure something out. 55:33.642 --> 55:38.989 [SPEAKER_01]: It seems like our own elected officials here in the United States are just like 55:38.969 --> 55:41.396 [SPEAKER_01]: Well, it's just Trump and Trump. 55:42.198 --> 55:49.980 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and we mentioned that a very insufficient amount of alarm from both sides. 55:50.080 --> 55:53.991 [SPEAKER_01]: Here is where both sides really should be like, oh, well, it's from all sides. 55:53.971 --> 55:55.472 [SPEAKER_02]: because it's more than just both sides. 55:55.492 --> 55:58.575 [SPEAKER_02]: There are there are far more on the left. 55:59.036 --> 56:02.979 [SPEAKER_02]: I know you had some of the independence who have said, you know, have been raising alarm. 56:03.219 --> 56:05.481 [SPEAKER_02]: This is one of the things we spoke up since today's MLK Day. 56:06.122 --> 56:16.151 [SPEAKER_02]: And one of the big things that we highlighted in our one is that, you know, Martin Luther King made it clear that the people who are the problem aren't even necessarily always the people who are actively fighting against you. 56:16.491 --> 56:23.978 [SPEAKER_02]: It's the people who sit there with their mouse shut, sitting on their hands and not saying anything 56:23.958 --> 56:32.236 [SPEAKER_02]: The people who, if you're going to beat the monsters, you need them to get up off their asses, and they're just going to win, but it doesn't affect me right now. 56:33.840 --> 56:33.960 [SPEAKER_02]: Right. 56:33.980 --> 56:35.062 [SPEAKER_02]: Damn sure does affect you. 56:35.563 --> 56:38.249 [SPEAKER_02]: And if they affect you now, it's going to affect you later. 56:39.131 --> 56:39.512 [SPEAKER_02]: Indeed. 56:39.552 --> 56:42.338 [SPEAKER_02]: So yeah, I, um, 56:44.461 --> 56:45.463 [SPEAKER_02]: He is frustrating as hell. 56:45.483 --> 56:50.051 [SPEAKER_02]: We haven't talked a whole lot about the folks up in the cities and we definitely should get to that as well. 56:50.071 --> 57:07.482 [SPEAKER_02]: And of course, we know not only do you have a new podcast for yourself, or at least your go your podcasts is rejoined, but I believe I saw a little bit of this podcast, you got a second new podcast that you are a part of that involves Jojo from Jersey, my correct on this BDD. 57:07.462 --> 57:08.664 [SPEAKER_01]: This is true. 57:08.924 --> 57:09.625 [SPEAKER_01]: He's very correct.

01:08:31.490 --> 01:08:31.950 [SPEAKER_02]: Amen. 01:08:32.711 --> 01:08:33.131 [SPEAKER_01]: Perfect. 01:08:33.151 --> 01:08:34.393 [SPEAKER_02]: So perfect. 01:08:35.794 --> 01:08:36.114 [SPEAKER_02]: Isn't it? 01:08:36.134 --> 01:08:56.773 [SPEAKER_02]: Look, NLK was so passionate about so many things and so just he had such clear foresight and part of the reason that I think he did is because these jackasses, these monsters, like Donald Trump, like Steven Miller, who really in many ways, you were saying this what, Judy, back in October that it's President Miller. 01:08:56.833 --> 01:08:57.674 [SPEAKER_07]: It's President Miller. 01:08:58.314 --> 01:09:01.497 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 01:09:01.477 --> 01:09:04.080 [SPEAKER_02]: He's the one who's behind the immigration thing. 01:09:04.140 --> 01:09:10.948 [SPEAKER_02]: He's the one who's behind so much of this ridiculousness with the overseas thing with Venezuela and Greenland. 01:09:11.208 --> 01:09:13.571 [SPEAKER_02]: And Miller's got his hands in all of it. 01:09:13.631 --> 01:09:19.498 [SPEAKER_02]: Miller needs to definitely, there needs to be accountability for all the horrible wrong things that he's done. 01:09:19.718 --> 01:09:24.563 [SPEAKER_02]: But these people are monsters, but they're dumb. 01:09:24.623 --> 01:09:25.965 [SPEAKER_02]: They're 01:09:26.789 --> 01:09:28.773 [SPEAKER_02]: they have the same tactics. 01:09:29.634 --> 01:09:31.918 [SPEAKER_02]: And they've always had the same tactics. 01:09:31.938 --> 01:09:39.933 [SPEAKER_02]: And that's how Dr. King knew what kind of monsters they were because there are no different now than the monsters were back in the day. 01:09:40.193 --> 01:09:44.802 [SPEAKER_02]: Back in the day they just happened to wear a big of white hoods and set crosses on fire in people's yards. 01:09:44.882 --> 01:09:46.705 [SPEAKER_02]: Now they wear red maga hats. 01:09:46.853 --> 01:09:57.104 [SPEAKER_02]: But they're the same monsters that they always have been and they think the same stupid slow-ass way and they act the same way They used to have a guy. 01:09:57.164 --> 01:10:03.631 [SPEAKER_02]: What was that was it the Try to murder that the KKK youth or whatever it was it's turning point. 01:10:03.651 --> 01:10:10.718 [SPEAKER_02]: Yes, yeah Same thing yeah, there's that it same thing is turning point USA exactly the same thing 01:10:10.951 --> 01:10:28.216 [SPEAKER_01]: Can I indoctrere to men and you know get them thinking the way we do which is wrong, but yeah a few minutes ago, you You had mentioned that whole thing about Jake Lang, right and you also mentioned the church, right? 01:10:28.697 --> 01:10:38.832 [SPEAKER_01]: And what's happening here is that the right wing the Trump regime Are trying to instigate and provoke and they 01:10:38.812 --> 01:10:51.226 [SPEAKER_01]: And if they fail, if they fail to do so, which they have thus far, they want to create the illusion of provocation and create the illusion of chaos. 01:10:51.306 --> 01:10:59.936 [SPEAKER_01]: And here is where those guys like Jake Lang, like the Nick Sorteur, the, what's this guy of Shirley? 01:11:00.376 --> 01:11:01.638 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah, Shirley. 01:11:01.658 --> 01:11:01.938 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, right. 01:11:02.279 --> 01:11:02.519 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 01:11:03.300 --> 01:11:06.203 [SPEAKER_01]: They send these guys to places where, 01:11:06.267 --> 01:11:11.933 [SPEAKER_01]: You know, strangely enough, Nick Sorter is always in the midst of some kind of scuffle. 01:11:12.894 --> 01:11:21.962 [SPEAKER_02]: I've never seen somebody who is almost, I don't know who he is other than the fact of hearing that he is a right wing provocateur. 01:11:22.223 --> 01:11:22.543 [SPEAKER_02]: Thank you. 01:11:22.583 --> 01:11:23.484 [SPEAKER_02]: That's where I was on the floor. 01:11:23.744 --> 01:11:25.065 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 01:11:25.806 --> 01:11:26.187 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 01:11:26.207 --> 01:11:34.755 [SPEAKER_01]: So the key for our side is to hold fast, to not let things devolve into like, 01:11:35.039 --> 01:11:38.644 [SPEAKER_01]: burning cars and burning, burning stores and stuff like that. 01:11:38.804 --> 01:11:42.068 [SPEAKER_01]: As long as Fox, the Fox news is and the O.A. 01:11:42.269 --> 01:11:47.115 [SPEAKER_01]: ends and the news maxes don't get there burning at night. 01:11:47.555 --> 01:11:51.641 [SPEAKER_07]: The way that's still on fire in Los Angeles apparently. 01:11:51.661 --> 01:11:58.930 [SPEAKER_02]: They are always going to make some type of even if they have to use footage that has absolutely nothing to do with the use protests from other countries. 01:11:59.551 --> 01:12:00.152 [SPEAKER_02]: Right. 01:12:00.385 --> 01:12:05.755 [SPEAKER_02]: So the propaganda is going to do their thing, but it doesn't mean, you know, Dr. King knew this stuff. 01:12:05.795 --> 01:12:11.165 [SPEAKER_02]: And Dr. King was one of the cheap people said, you can't be violent, because they'll use it against you. 01:12:11.185 --> 01:12:11.305 [SPEAKER_02]: Yes. 01:12:12.026 --> 01:12:12.126 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 01:12:12.147 --> 01:12:13.609 [SPEAKER_02]: But there are other ways. 01:12:13.769 --> 01:12:16.815 [SPEAKER_02]: There are lots of other ways to get accountability. 01:12:17.256 --> 01:12:24.469 [SPEAKER_02]: And the one thing that Dr. King always was saying is, we may not get accountability today or tomorrow. 01:12:24.922 --> 01:12:30.248 [SPEAKER_02]: Remember that speech where you said, you know, I may not, I may not see the problem's lane with you, but we will get to the promise land. 01:12:30.528 --> 01:12:30.989 [SPEAKER_01]: That's right. 01:12:31.209 --> 01:12:46.186 [SPEAKER_02]: He was saying there's going to be accountability, but maybe not necessarily today, but the only way that it happens is if we keep pushing and if we refuse to stay silent, what do you guys think that accountability looks like at this point? 01:12:46.767 --> 01:12:49.029 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, and how soon do we see it? 01:12:49.149 --> 01:12:51.072 [SPEAKER_01]: Do we have to wait until 2028? 01:12:51.212 --> 01:12:52.313 [SPEAKER_01]: Nine? 01:12:52.597 --> 01:12:53.058 [SPEAKER_01]: to see it. 01:12:54.260 --> 01:13:07.382 [SPEAKER_02]: That is that that's the kind of question that I think we can think about here while we're in the break and then we can talk about it in the next segment because that's that's one that deserves at least a few moments of thought. 01:13:07.463 --> 01:13:10.187 [SPEAKER_02]: Yes, I love a VDD and Jodie going into there.

banging around a little bit here in the in the break. 01:14:56.115 --> 01:14:59.398 [SPEAKER_02]: So you're wondering what accountability looks like and when it would be possible. 01:15:00.526 --> 01:15:03.349 [SPEAKER_02]: Uh, I think the win is the easier question to ask answer. 01:15:03.530 --> 01:15:09.256 [SPEAKER_02]: So, um, the win, it could be used a little over a year. 01:15:10.698 --> 01:15:10.858 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 01:15:10.898 --> 01:15:13.141 [SPEAKER_02]: It Democrats win the house and the Senate. 01:15:14.142 --> 01:15:16.745 [SPEAKER_02]: Now I'm not talking, we're not going to win 67 seats. 01:15:16.765 --> 01:15:17.707 [SPEAKER_02]: Jodi, I wish we would. 01:15:17.887 --> 01:15:18.367 [SPEAKER_07]: God. 01:15:18.387 --> 01:15:19.168 [SPEAKER_07]: Oh, you mean 70? 01:15:19.188 --> 01:15:21.691 [SPEAKER_02]: 75. 01:15:21.912 --> 01:15:23.413 [SPEAKER_02]: You're here anyway. 01:15:23.473 --> 01:15:24.314 [SPEAKER_02]: 85, 85, 85, 95, 95. 01:15:24.435 --> 01:15:27.278 [SPEAKER_07]: I mean, how many seats were they defending? 01:15:27.298 --> 01:15:28.980 [SPEAKER_07]: They're defending more than the dams. 01:15:29.011 --> 01:15:30.352 [SPEAKER_02]: they're defending significantly more. 01:15:30.392 --> 01:15:34.697 [SPEAKER_02]: I don't have the numbers in front of me right now, but I believe Democrats are defending. 01:15:34.717 --> 01:15:43.286 [SPEAKER_02]: I think somewhere around like 10 or 12 and I think the Republicans are somewhere in the 20s, upper 20s, something like that. 01:15:43.306 --> 01:15:48.051 [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, because it's what 33 seats up every couple of years. 01:15:48.071 --> 01:15:51.194 [SPEAKER_02]: So basically they have two thirds as many seats that they're defending as we are. 01:15:51.274 --> 01:15:51.495 [SPEAKER_07]: Right. 01:15:51.955 --> 01:15:53.837 [SPEAKER_07]: So we could get 70. 01:15:53.817 --> 01:16:00.270 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm just I don't know, but I don't think that's a hundred percent real estate, but I do think easily you don't 50 can happen. 01:16:00.330 --> 01:16:05.361 [SPEAKER_07]: We could you to new to this it gonna happen I don't get that reference. 01:16:05.521 --> 01:16:08.327 [SPEAKER_02]: Judy to new to Yeah, she used to say to get happened. 01:16:08.788 --> 01:16:09.609 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, she did all the time. 01:16:09.750 --> 01:16:11.594 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, just like that just like that. 01:16:11.614 --> 01:16:12.315 [SPEAKER_02]: It's great 01:16:12.430 --> 01:16:13.331 [SPEAKER_02]: You go, go look that up. 01:16:13.351 --> 01:16:13.611 [SPEAKER_02]: You'll see. 01:16:13.631 --> 01:16:14.012 [SPEAKER_02]: You look rough. 01:16:14.032 --> 01:16:14.793 [SPEAKER_07]: She was amazing. 01:16:14.833 --> 01:16:16.034 [SPEAKER_07]: She was an amazing comedian. 01:16:16.415 --> 01:16:17.596 [SPEAKER_07]: She really was very funny. 01:16:17.616 --> 01:16:18.157 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 01:16:18.177 --> 01:16:20.119 [SPEAKER_02]: But the whole thing. 01:16:20.139 --> 01:16:23.543 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh, by the way, by the way, is speaking of the amazing comedians, Paul Poundstone will ask. 01:16:23.563 --> 01:16:24.023 [SPEAKER_02]: Tomorrow. 01:16:24.424 --> 01:16:25.505 [SPEAKER_02]: She'll be here tomorrow. 01:16:25.565 --> 01:16:27.407 [SPEAKER_02]: She won't just be calling in and going. 01:16:27.727 --> 01:16:28.368 [SPEAKER_02]: Hello. 01:16:28.528 --> 01:16:30.851 [SPEAKER_02]: Oh. 01:16:30.871 --> 01:16:32.052 [SPEAKER_02]: Phil in or will be here tomorrow as well. 01:16:32.153 --> 01:16:33.294 [SPEAKER_02]: And as well. 01:16:33.534 --> 01:16:34.575 [SPEAKER_02]: So yes, accountability. 01:16:35.356 --> 01:16:36.738 [SPEAKER_02]: I do think it's possible. 01:16:37.018 --> 01:16:41.323 [SPEAKER_02]: If Democrats pick up the house solidly and pick up the Senate. 01:16:42.046 --> 01:16:47.011 [SPEAKER_02]: I think we can see some serious kind of building, but none of this mealy mouth stuff. 01:16:47.272 --> 01:16:51.076 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm sorry, but Chuck has got to go as Senate Democratic leader. 01:16:52.217 --> 01:16:56.602 [SPEAKER_02]: Chuck has done a lot of great things, and that's fine, but I'm sorry Chuck, you're farly. 01:16:57.002 --> 01:16:59.905 [SPEAKER_02]: Just that's, you're done, dude. 01:16:59.925 --> 01:17:02.007 [SPEAKER_02]: We've had you, and we appreciate it. 01:17:02.027 --> 01:17:02.808 [SPEAKER_02]: Thank you very much. 01:17:03.209 --> 01:17:05.491 [SPEAKER_02]: Here's your goal, watch, hit the skids, dude. 01:17:05.651 --> 01:17:11.918 [SPEAKER_01]: He's a senator from a different time. 01:17:12.100 --> 01:17:18.482 [SPEAKER_01]: politicians were normal right and this was really this was well before the this was 01:17:18.682 --> 01:17:31.963 [SPEAKER_01]: before the Trump years, where they could still reach across the aisle and, you know, you have your disagreements, but let's go have some lunch and, you know, and you understand how to do legislating skills and bartering and to get things. 01:17:32.003 --> 01:17:35.649 [SPEAKER_02]: And yes, yes, Chuck was was good at that and good at fundraising and yada yada. 01:17:36.491 --> 01:17:41.519 [SPEAKER_01]: He's completely missing the moment for, and this is for years now for years. 01:17:41.599 --> 01:17:42.360 [SPEAKER_01]: He's been like, 01:17:42.340 --> 01:17:46.251 [SPEAKER_01]: that strongly worded letter guy and like dude, come on. 01:17:46.551 --> 01:17:47.654 [SPEAKER_01]: We give you a word. 01:17:47.694 --> 01:17:48.537 [SPEAKER_02]: Praiseworthy. 01:17:49.098 --> 01:17:50.301 [SPEAKER_02]: And criticism too. 01:17:50.923 --> 01:17:53.871 [SPEAKER_02]: And there are times where Chuck's done some, okay, stuff. 01:17:53.891 --> 01:17:55.475 [SPEAKER_02]: And I think we've given him praise, and we don't. 01:17:55.495 --> 01:17:56.097 [SPEAKER_02]: Yes, we have. 01:17:57.258 --> 01:17:58.941 [SPEAKER_02]: But we've also criticized him, you know, right. 01:17:58.961 --> 01:18:03.909 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, because and he deserves a lot of criticism because he's just a yeah, great. 01:18:04.150 --> 01:18:07.075 [SPEAKER_02]: We have a great slate of candidates that we'll be running for Senate. 01:18:07.255 --> 01:18:08.257 [SPEAKER_02]: Congratulations. 01:18:08.337 --> 01:18:13.225 [SPEAKER_02]: Thank you very much, Chuck, that being said the races have to be run and won. 01:18:14.420 --> 01:18:18.546 [SPEAKER_02]: And then we have to get down to, as you said, BDD accountability. 01:18:18.927 --> 01:18:32.287 [SPEAKER_02]: Now, what accountability looks like is going to be different depending on the person and the situation, and depending on what happens in the next 14 months, let's start with Trump. 01:18:32.828 --> 01:18:39.398 [SPEAKER_01]: Because I mean, just as recently as a week or two ago, he said, we can't lose these midterms. 01:18:39.732 --> 01:18:45.362 [SPEAKER_01]: If we lose, the Democrats are going to find any reason they can to impeach me. 01:18:45.383 --> 01:18:45.583 [SPEAKER_01]: I know. 01:18:45.643 --> 01:18:47.707 [SPEAKER_07]: I don't want any friends that's with a good time. 01:18:47.727 --> 01:18:51.674 [SPEAKER_02]: I think is Democrats don't have to find reasons. 01:18:51.754 --> 01:18:52.576 [SPEAKER_02]: No, that's plenty. 01:18:53.197 --> 01:18:53.638 [SPEAKER_02]: Exactly. 01:18:53.678 --> 01:18:55.762 [SPEAKER_02]: That's that's that's like saying, I'm sorry. 01:18:55.782 --> 01:18:58.627 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm looking straight at you and I'm going to have to find your nose. 01:18:59.469 --> 01:19:02.314 [SPEAKER_02]: Dude, it's right there on my face. 01:19:02.294 --> 01:19:05.841 [SPEAKER_02]: You know, you couldn't hit the broad side. 01:19:05.861 --> 01:19:06.903 [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, you're I'm sorry. 01:19:06.923 --> 01:19:09.368 [SPEAKER_02]: There are so many metaphors running through my brain right now because I'm sorry. 01:19:09.388 --> 01:19:18.224 [SPEAKER_02]: There are so many things that Donald could be nailed for so many things, but but you were you were saying as we were chatting on the break there. 01:19:18.265 --> 01:19:21.130 [SPEAKER_02]: You're like, you know, is it is it worth it? 01:19:21.835 --> 01:19:23.761 [SPEAKER_01]: Well, I say this. 01:19:23.981 --> 01:19:29.418 [SPEAKER_01]: I feel like he absolutely deserves to be impeached for so many different reasons. 01:19:29.839 --> 01:19:30.280 [SPEAKER_01]: Right. 01:19:30.922 --> 01:19:33.229 [SPEAKER_01]: But I also am 01:19:33.344 --> 01:19:45.567 [SPEAKER_01]: I almost feel like it's like that you guys ever heard the story of Brear Rabbit and like it's this old story from the sound The tears of the sound ever and this rabbit. 01:19:45.968 --> 01:19:55.285 [SPEAKER_01]: He says, oh, please don't throw me in that bear patch Whatever you do don't throw me there, and that is precisely where he wanted to be thrown now 01:19:55.265 --> 01:20:07.701 [SPEAKER_01]: It seems like, I don't know if this is right or not, but it just seems like when we have impeached them, it has almost kind of backfired on the Democrats. 01:20:07.781 --> 01:20:08.422 [SPEAKER_01]: And backfired. 01:20:08.442 --> 01:20:10.784 [SPEAKER_01]: We've been guessing what we want that are needed. 01:20:10.925 --> 01:20:17.593 [SPEAKER_07]: Well, I mean, the second impeachment for January 6th, Mitch McConnell could have whipped up the other 10 votes. 01:20:17.573 --> 01:20:28.006 [SPEAKER_02]: to impeach him there are seven people who have talked have said that if Mitch McConnell had came out that they would have because McConnell decided to remain silent. 01:20:28.247 --> 01:20:28.528 [SPEAKER_07]: Yep. 01:20:29.352 --> 01:20:55.292 [SPEAKER_07]: He could have gotten because there were seven GOP members Mitt Romney doing it twice, by the way, he voted to convict twice, so good for him, but there were seven GOP members in the Senate that voted to convict, we just needed 10 more and it would have been a done deal and Mitch McConnell shows to 01:20:56.335 --> 01:21:19.356 [SPEAKER_02]: now that same Mitch McConnell is a non-factor exactly right now but but that's but that's not the point that the bigger point is kind of like a christian home thing so christian home is a monster and so so we we noticed this uh you noticed before I did jodie um about uh I can't remember the name of the democrat who started to bring it up first and she said I'm going to go ahead and do it. 01:21:19.336 --> 01:21:22.321 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to bring forward the article she's in the house. 01:21:22.381 --> 01:21:23.563 [SPEAKER_07]: I forget who she is. 01:21:23.623 --> 01:21:36.844 [SPEAKER_02]: But yeah, I remember because you shot that to me and I said let's and I said let's wait and see where this goes because there I mean Democrats have been putting forward articles in impeachment left and right anytime Trump has been in the office. 01:21:37.345 --> 01:21:39.268 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm not disagreeing with that. 01:21:39.248 --> 01:21:51.943 [SPEAKER_02]: But it matters, I think, a little bit more when you have a substantial number, and as of yesterday, I believe there are 70 Democrats now in the house, and this has only been since last Wednesday. 01:21:52.904 --> 01:21:58.250 [SPEAKER_02]: So there are, say, substantial number, and there are a lot of Republicans who don't like Christy know me there. 01:21:59.692 --> 01:22:05.779 [SPEAKER_02]: So, but more importantly than that, especially when we are dealing with 01:22:07.025 --> 01:22:10.035 [SPEAKER_02]: But we're dealing with the the quiet factor. 01:22:10.155 --> 01:22:11.921 [SPEAKER_02]: The people being quiet for too long. 01:22:12.082 --> 01:22:15.433 [SPEAKER_02]: People gutting, doing the gutless thing that Mitch McConnell did. 01:22:15.473 --> 01:22:16.697 [SPEAKER_02]: Where I'm not going to show you anything. 01:22:16.717 --> 01:22:17.058 [SPEAKER_02]: Whatever. 01:22:17.881 --> 01:22:19.988 [SPEAKER_02]: It's more important than ever. 01:22:20.086 --> 01:22:26.013 [SPEAKER_02]: that Democrats, if Democrats get power and regain power in Congress, that they actually set forward. 01:22:26.353 --> 01:22:28.215 [SPEAKER_02]: We said we're going to do accountability. 01:22:28.376 --> 01:22:30.558 [SPEAKER_02]: We ran on accountability by God. 01:22:30.578 --> 01:22:37.366 [SPEAKER_02]: We're going to aim for accountability, but doesn't mean a hundred percent that they are going to get it. 01:22:37.406 --> 01:22:42.111 [SPEAKER_02]: Just because you aim for it, Michael Jordan didn't make every basketball that he ever went in. 01:22:42.171 --> 01:22:42.752 [SPEAKER_02]: Kobe didn't 01:22:43.643 --> 01:22:48.472 [SPEAKER_02]: LeBronen, um, you know, uh, Lisa LeBronen quarterback can't. 01:22:48.673 --> 01:22:52.259 [SPEAKER_07]: Oh, was that too soon? 01:22:52.279 --> 01:22:52.380 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah. 01:22:52.400 --> 01:22:54.484 [SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, both, both, both next broke his, his ankle. 01:22:54.504 --> 01:22:55.465 [SPEAKER_02]: I'm sure you saw that, too. 01:22:55.586 --> 01:22:57.630 [SPEAKER_02]: But, but he, look, he went all the way. 01:22:57.650 --> 01:22:58.010 [SPEAKER_02]: He tried. 01:22:58.030 --> 01:22:59.513 [SPEAKER_02]: He got him through the, the, the O.T. 01:22:59.593 --> 01:23:03.080 [SPEAKER_02]: I mean, you know, so I, that's the whole thing. 01:23:03.481 --> 01:23:04.723 [SPEAKER_02]: You got to try. 01:23:05.142 --> 01:23:21.700 [SPEAKER_02]: Democrats for too long, many Democrats at the federal level, but also at the state and local level have done that have tried to do that calculus that you're doing there have tried to to be too smart by half as the phrase goes and say, well, I don't think we're going to get through it all the way. 01:23:22.490 --> 01:23:25.735 [SPEAKER_02]: Here's the thing, if you don't make the case, you don't know. 01:23:25.775 --> 01:23:28.218 [SPEAKER_01]: Nothing beats a failure, but a try. 01:23:28.619 --> 01:23:29.340 [SPEAKER_02]: Exactly. 01:23:29.360 --> 01:23:32.605 [SPEAKER_02]: As Elizabeth Warren says, you don't get what you don't fight for. 01:23:33.186 --> 01:23:40.516 [SPEAKER_02]: And by God, if we have fought for their votes to get the majority in the house and the Senate, then we owe it. 01:23:41.077 --> 01:23:48.348 [SPEAKER_02]: We as Democrats and Democratic supporting independence and Democratic supporting non-Trump Republicans. 01:23:48.408 --> 01:23:50.691 [SPEAKER_02]: The greater left is Bruce Bartlett calls it. 01:23:50.671 --> 01:24:16.257 [SPEAKER_02]: if all of us end up saying you know what we're going to support Democrats for Congress we're going to support Democrats for our our state legislators and our city halls that those Democrats that get elected they oh they oh everybody who voted for them to actually push for that accountability now we can't guarantee it's always going to happen but if you don't try you will never find out 01:24:16.439 --> 01:24:31.461 [SPEAKER_02]: it's like buying lottery tickets if you don't buy it can't win exactly you get it to win it exactly and I do think now as far as what will accountability look like it all depends on the crimes that we are trying to go after 01:24:31.694 --> 01:24:53.601 [SPEAKER_02]: And it all look where we're also going to have to do one hell of a lot when completely top to bottom when Democrats get the White House, both houses of Congress again, one of the first things we're going to have to do is completely reform the Supreme Court immediately add a ton of justices balance that thing out and then go back and wipe out all of the illegitimate things they did. 01:24:53.581 --> 01:25:00.569 [SPEAKER_02]: Glenn Kirchner has said, well, you know, Donald could, could do parts, but partners can also be brought to court. 01:25:01.070 --> 01:25:01.611 [SPEAKER_02]: Guess what? 01:25:01.631 --> 01:25:02.792 [SPEAKER_02]: We don't have to do a lot of that. 01:25:03.112 --> 01:25:11.122 [SPEAKER_02]: We don't have to do a lot of going through government and saying, you know, people were pissed because this didn't work and this didn't work and this didn't work. 01:25:11.142 --> 01:25:12.624 [SPEAKER_02]: So we're going to un-f that. 01:25:12.724 --> 01:25:15.027 [SPEAKER_02]: We're going to un-f that and we're going to un-f that. 01:25:15.367 --> 01:25:22.896 [SPEAKER_02]: For example, DHS and ICE 01:25:22.876 --> 01:25:24.184 [SPEAKER_02]: that was was created. 01:25:25.693 --> 01:25:29.275 [SPEAKER_02]: It has been shown that the agencies as they are now. 01:25:29.660 --> 01:25:31.822 [SPEAKER_02]: There's no way to reform them, right? 01:25:31.842 --> 01:25:36.807 [SPEAKER_02]: And I'm still seeing people like Jake Ockon-Gloss going, well, I don't know what I want to say abolish. 01:25:36.827 --> 01:25:38.789 [SPEAKER_02]: Jake, shut up. 01:25:38.809 --> 01:25:41.571 [SPEAKER_02]: It needs to be abolished because we can do one. 01:25:41.651 --> 01:25:43.773 [SPEAKER_02]: Hoverlot better if we start from scratch. 01:25:44.654 --> 01:25:48.878 [SPEAKER_02]: If you've got something, it's 90% countered and 10% valuable something. 01:25:49.299 --> 01:25:50.780 [SPEAKER_02]: And you go, well, I could still save it. 01:25:51.200 --> 01:25:57.606 [SPEAKER_02]: Or, here's a thought, take the valuable thing out, remove the countered, abolish it, and start with something new. 01:25:57.727 --> 01:25:59.228 [SPEAKER_02]: How about that? 01:25:59.208 --> 01:26:02.092 [SPEAKER_07]: Yeah, we had border security before we had ice. 01:26:03.093 --> 01:26:03.574 [SPEAKER_07]: Dan, right. 01:26:04.715 --> 01:26:07.118 [SPEAKER_02]: He's had worse than some over 100 years now. 01:26:09.121 --> 01:26:10.362 [SPEAKER_02]: It is time to abolish ice. 01:26:10.482 --> 01:26:11.984 [SPEAKER_02]: It is time to abolish the HS. 01:26:12.004 --> 01:26:16.951 [SPEAKER_02]: That doesn't mean that some of the important functions we are still going to have immigration laws. 01:26:16.991 --> 01:26:19.534 [SPEAKER_02]: We are going to have national security. 01:26:19.574 --> 01:26:21.857 [SPEAKER_02]: Exactly. 01:26:22.850 --> 01:26:32.488 [SPEAKER_02]: But those agencies, the way they are now, are so corrupted and so destroyed, whatever they were supposed to be in the beginning. 01:26:33.700 --> 01:26:43.931 [SPEAKER_02]: even if you don't like them, if you assume that there are certain things they have that were good like you said, Joe, your friend who works, she's been working for immigration for 30 years. 01:26:44.532 --> 01:26:46.734 [SPEAKER_02]: Okay, yeah, so obviously she was there before ice. 01:26:46.754 --> 01:26:51.500 [SPEAKER_02]: There were good ways for us, she was she was doing some of them, but we need to reform the whole thing. 01:26:51.560 --> 01:26:55.084 [SPEAKER_02]: And the best way to reform it is abolish it, start new, start with something different. 01:26:55.404 --> 01:26:56.665 [SPEAKER_02]: We did it already. 01:26:56.725 --> 01:26:57.867 [SPEAKER_02]: We did it within the lifetime. 01:26:58.027 --> 01:27:00.149 [SPEAKER_02]: Most of the people listening here, we can do it again. 01:27:00.369 --> 01:27:01.811 [SPEAKER_02]: We just have to say, let's do it. 01:27:02.271 --> 01:27:03.673 [SPEAKER_02]: We have to not be afraid. 01:27:04.109 --> 01:27:07.321 [SPEAKER_02]: So the missed discussion is is still going. 01:27:07.421 --> 01:27:08.726 [SPEAKER_02]: It is it is a good discussion. 01:27:08.746 --> 01:27:11.375 [SPEAKER_02]: Do you have the time to hang out with us for an after hours, BDD? 01:27:12.098 --> 01:27:13.242
