Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: No time.
- 0:02Speaker 2: Corall is so near because show time is here.
- 0:05Speaker 1: So on with the show. Let's give it a go.
- 0:09Speaker 1: Corilla is the one that you need to know.
- 0:14Speaker 3: Now it's show side.
- 0:28Speaker 4: You've heard of doom scrolling? Have you ever heard of
- 0:31Speaker 4: doom maxing? Well, it seems America is excelling out it.
- 0:34Speaker 4: We're going to talk about that, the reflecting pool as
- 0:37Speaker 4: a euphemism for the Trump presidency, and so much more
- 0:40Speaker 4: on today's show, So don't go anywhere on this Tuesday,
- 0:42Speaker 4: June twenty three. Hello and good morning to you all.
- 0:50Speaker 4: On this Tuesday, June twenty third. I am Corral and
- 0:53Speaker 4: it is the Correll Show. So very glad you are here.
- 0:56Speaker 4: I am queer. Are you used to it? We've got
- 0:59Speaker 4: a lot to talk about day, including how the reflecting
- 1:01Speaker 4: pool has become a symbol of Trump's crumbling presidency, and
- 1:06Speaker 4: it really has. Even The New York Times has run
- 1:08Speaker 4: an editorial about how this is really a symbol of
- 1:11Speaker 4: where we are in the country as he blames vandals,
- 1:15Speaker 4: he is so stupid. There is video of the reflecting pool.
- 1:19Speaker 4: If there were vandals, we'd have them on video. There aren't.
- 1:21Speaker 4: We don't. It was a shoddy job he pocketed the
- 1:25Speaker 4: fourteen million, obviously, and gave the person that did it
- 1:29Speaker 4: probably one hundred grand, and they did shoddy work, and
- 1:33Speaker 4: then he filled it with the very swamp water that
- 1:35Speaker 4: he bathes in there in Washington, d c. As he
- 1:37Speaker 4: is the biggest swamp monster around. So we're going to
- 1:41Speaker 4: talk about that. We're also going to talk about a
- 1:43Speaker 4: great editorial I read about doom maxing, you know, doom maxing.
- 1:48Speaker 4: It's like looks maxing, but doom maxing, and how companies
- 1:53Speaker 4: like Meta and others are making a fortune off of
- 1:57Speaker 4: keeping you in the doom and gloe boom sort of mode,
- 2:02Speaker 4: and podcasters and everything. We're also going to talk about
- 2:05Speaker 4: the money of entertainments. If you're not Taylor Swift or
- 2:12Speaker 4: Don Lemon or Joe Rogan, I think it will shock you.
- 2:16Speaker 4: I think those figures will shock you. So we've got
- 2:18Speaker 4: a lot to talk about today. You know. On a
- 2:22Speaker 4: personal note, I'm not thinking about any of that crap today,
- 2:26Speaker 4: you know what. I'm an honest talk show host. I
- 2:28Speaker 4: don't come out here like David Pacman will come out
- 2:30Speaker 4: and talk to you about Trump and whatever. And yeah,
- 2:32Speaker 4: he's worth one to five million dollars a year. According
- 2:35Speaker 4: to Chad Gpt, it told me that David Pacman makes
- 2:38Speaker 4: between one and three million a year, and so maybe
- 2:43Speaker 4: his formula of I'm going to talk right into the camera,
- 2:46Speaker 4: I'm gonna show you videos of Donald Trump, and then
- 2:48Speaker 4: we're going to talk about him and occasionally have a guest.
- 2:51Speaker 4: Maybe that works. And maybe that's why I'm not working
- 2:54Speaker 4: because I don't do that. I don't I can't show
- 2:57Speaker 4: videos of Donald Trump. They make me sick, so you know,
- 3:01Speaker 4: but he makes one to three million a year, so
- 3:04Speaker 4: he's not hurting and he's not living my life. And
- 3:09Speaker 4: I almost think that I'm a little more relatable nowadays
- 3:11Speaker 4: because I'm not a millionaire. Because I could have gone
- 3:15Speaker 4: to the Grammy Diversity Pride party this afternoon at the
- 3:19Speaker 4: Astor in Hollywood and been on a panel. Exactly what
- 3:23Speaker 4: I've been asking for. Put me on a panel, get
- 3:25Speaker 4: me in front of these Grammy people, and they offered,
- 3:28Speaker 4: but I couldn't go because I wasn't going to spend
- 3:31Speaker 4: five hundred dollars just to go to LA for one night,
- 3:34Speaker 4: and they weren't paying their speakers. So there we have that.
- 3:38Speaker 4: Then this morning, I get a call about my car
- 3:40Speaker 4: my car which blew up on Sunday. Well, in order
- 3:43Speaker 4: to figure out what is wrong with it, they first
- 3:45Speaker 4: have to replace the radiator. That's six hundred and fifty dollars.
- 3:50Speaker 4: Then after they replace the radiator, they can tell me
- 3:54Speaker 4: if the block is cracked or the head gaskets are blown,
- 3:58Speaker 4: or if the engines even set aalvegeble, or if this
- 4:01Speaker 4: blowing up of the radiator also overheated other parts of
- 4:04Speaker 4: the engine and blew it out. So they're telling me
- 4:07Speaker 4: I have to spend six hundred and fifty dollars to
- 4:10Speaker 4: maybe find out that the car isn't worth fixing. So
- 4:14Speaker 4: I've been in a dilemma all morning of what to do.
- 4:16Speaker 4: You know, what do I do? Do I fix it?
- 4:19Speaker 4: I do I get the radiator fixed and then see
- 4:22Speaker 4: if it's able to be fixed and it would be
- 4:24Speaker 4: more money. The six fifty is just for the radiator.
- 4:27Speaker 4: Then if there's a problem with the fan or the
- 4:29Speaker 4: engine or whatever, or do I just say goodbye to
- 4:32Speaker 4: the car. I already spent twenty six hundred on it
- 4:34Speaker 4: two months ago, haven't even paid that credit card off,
- 4:37Speaker 4: and now there's this and it's a twenty five year
- 4:40Speaker 4: old two hundred thousand plus lexis. My friend Jen has
- 4:45Speaker 4: an Infinity, a two thousand and seven Infinity with one
- 4:48Speaker 4: hundred and five thousand miles that she'll sell me for
- 4:51Speaker 4: three thousand dollars. Am I just buying another you know,
- 4:57Speaker 4: junker basically, even though it's running good right now, That's
- 5:00Speaker 4: what's on my mind. On my mind, it's like, I
- 5:02Speaker 4: don't even want a car. I don't want a car.
- 5:05Speaker 4: I don't I want to live in a place where
- 5:07Speaker 4: I don't need a car, where a car is not
- 5:10Speaker 4: a necessity, like New York or Paris or londonner you know,
- 5:13Speaker 4: I don't want a car. I like my motorcycle. And
- 5:17Speaker 4: other than that, I think cars are stupid. They're costly,
- 5:20Speaker 4: they run on fossil fuels, they hurt the environment. Insurance
- 5:24Speaker 4: is a mess in terms of you know, the price
- 5:26Speaker 4: of insurance, maintenance and all of that. I just I
- 5:29Speaker 4: don't really want a car, but I feel naked without one.
- 5:33Speaker 4: So that's what's on my mind today. We all have
- 5:36Speaker 4: those kinds of decisions in our lives, and that's what
- 5:38Speaker 4: we think about. We'd like to think about Trump all day,
- 5:42Speaker 4: but we can. We have real life to deal with.
- 5:47Speaker 4: I think the news for getting.
- 5:48Speaker 5: Visiting really corell dot com daily.
- 5:51Speaker 6: You're missing out. Get the podcast videos and the blug
- 5:55Speaker 6: including recipes at really correll dot com. That's really ka
- 5:59Speaker 6: r el dot com.
- 6:02Speaker 1: Show Time is here. No time to.
- 6:05Speaker 2: Fear Corell is so near because showtime is here.
- 6:09Speaker 1: So on with the show. Let's give it a go.
- 6:13Speaker 1: Corell is the one that you need to know.
- 6:18Speaker 4: You know, I really do think the news forgets that
- 6:20Speaker 4: we don't sit around all day and think about what
- 6:23Speaker 4: they think about you know, ms now, I do not
- 6:28Speaker 4: sit around all day and just ponder the same issues
- 6:32Speaker 4: about Donald Trump and the government. And you know, this
- 6:34Speaker 4: morning in the New York Times there's an open letter
- 6:36Speaker 4: from Elizabeth Warren about how in six years, in six years,
- 6:40Speaker 4: they're gonna have to cut solid Security benefits twenty five
- 6:43Speaker 4: percent unless Congress does something. And she has a plan,
- 6:47Speaker 4: and she wants to introduce it as a bipartisan plan
- 6:50Speaker 4: to help rescue and save Soial Security, which would start
- 6:53Speaker 4: with removing the income cap so people like Elon Musk
- 6:57Speaker 4: would pay SOLI security taxes on all of his income,
- 7:01Speaker 4: not just the first you know, one hundred thousand or
- 7:03Speaker 4: whatever it is. You know, we have We are so
- 7:08Speaker 4: much more as a culture and a people than what
- 7:11Speaker 4: Trump has painted us out to be, and we think
- 7:16Speaker 4: about so much more than what his maggots would make
- 7:19Speaker 4: you believe. I don't sit around all day wondering where
- 7:22Speaker 4: trans people should pee. I know you don't either. I
- 7:27Speaker 4: don't sit around all day mad at a rainbow flag.
- 7:31Speaker 4: I just don't even give it a second thought. I
- 7:34Speaker 4: don't sit around all day doom scrolling so I can
- 7:39Speaker 4: put snide in hurtful comments under people's things that you
- 7:43Speaker 4: know don't agree with me, or that I don't like
- 7:46Speaker 4: because they're different than me. I don't spend the day
- 7:48Speaker 4: doing that, and I don't think you do either. I
- 7:54Speaker 4: spend the day worrying about the real world. There was
- 7:58Speaker 4: a report that Steve said me yesterday that said by
- 8:01Speaker 4: twenty twenty eight, the water in the seven states reliant
- 8:05Speaker 4: on the Colorado River will be at a critical mass
- 8:09Speaker 4: where the system is going to collapse, collapse, collapse. The
- 8:17Speaker 4: Colorado River is running out of water. Lake Mead is
- 8:21Speaker 4: at twenty nine percent. No one is doing anything, so
- 8:29Speaker 4: in just two years the system is going to collapse.
- 8:35Speaker 4: What's anybody doing that? I worry about that. I worry
- 8:40Speaker 4: about where should I move? Because obviously Las Vegas is
- 8:43Speaker 4: not the place to stay, So where should I move?
- 8:47Speaker 4: If I move to California, they get water from the
- 8:50Speaker 4: Colorado River, they're going to have problems. Washington, Oregon, Utah, Colorado.
- 9:02Speaker 4: So the West is toast. Climate change is making it
- 9:05Speaker 4: heat up and water is running out. So Vancouver, Richmond,
- 9:12Speaker 4: which is just south of Vancouver, where do I go?
- 9:16Speaker 4: I think about that every day, I sure do. Every day.
- 9:19Speaker 4: I think about where am I going to move? And
- 9:21Speaker 4: how am I going to do it on such a
- 9:23Speaker 4: limited income. I think about that, should I leave the country.
- 9:27Speaker 4: I think about that every day. What do you guys
- 9:32Speaker 4: think about every day? Other than Donald Trump? I'm so
- 9:37Speaker 4: curious if this, if we were on KFI or kg O,
- 9:39Speaker 4: the lines would fill up right now. You know, what
- 9:43Speaker 4: do you guys? What are your priorities right now? What
- 9:46Speaker 4: do you think about? I know it's not Donald Trump
- 9:50Speaker 4: all day, and and you know, I don't even fucking
- 9:53Speaker 4: care about Iran anymore. I don't care. He lies, They lie, lie, lie,
- 9:59Speaker 4: lie lie. Today he said Tehran has totally said that
- 10:03Speaker 4: we're gonna do the nuclear talks and all that. Turan's like, no,
- 10:05Speaker 4: we didn't. He just lies if his mouth is moving.
- 10:10Speaker 4: There's vandals at the reflecting Pond. No, you're the vandal
- 10:14Speaker 4: of the reflecting pond. You're the one that the National
- 10:17Speaker 4: Guard should arrest. You destroyed the East Wing of the
- 10:21Speaker 4: White House, a national monument, and the reflecting Pool. You
- 10:26Speaker 4: have now destroyed two national monuments. You should be put
- 10:31Speaker 4: in jail for that alone. Donald Trump should go to
- 10:35Speaker 4: jail for tearing down the East Wing of the White
- 10:38Speaker 4: House without congressional approval or anything, and for destroying the
- 10:42Speaker 4: reflecting pool. It was fine, but no, he should go
- 10:48Speaker 4: to jail for these things. So I do not sit
- 10:51Speaker 4: around and think about them all day. I could care
- 10:53Speaker 4: less about the reflecting pool. I've never been to Washington, DC,
- 10:57Speaker 4: and at the price of things now, I'll probably ever go,
- 11:02Speaker 4: which most people can't believe that I have never been
- 11:04Speaker 4: to Washington, d C. But I never have never been,
- 11:09Speaker 4: never seen the White House never. I told Gavin Newsom
- 11:12Speaker 4: if he wins, I have to go, he has to
- 11:14Speaker 4: invite me as a guest because I've never been, and
- 11:17Speaker 4: he said he would. By the way, I've never seen
- 11:20Speaker 4: the Lincoln Memorial, the Jefferson Memorial, I know what's printed
- 11:23Speaker 4: on them. I can recite the words never been, so
- 11:26Speaker 4: I could give a crap about the reflecting pool. You know,
- 11:31Speaker 4: they could use a pool in Paris. Forty people drown
- 11:34Speaker 4: forty people in the U in France drowned yesterday. Forty
- 11:39Speaker 4: That's like the beginning of a bad horror movie. Forty
- 11:42Speaker 4: people drowned. Why because it was one hundred and four
- 11:45Speaker 4: degrees and these poor Parisians who are not used I guess,
- 11:49Speaker 4: to swimming or getting into water. You know, they got
- 11:52Speaker 4: in to cool off and they drowned. Forty, not one,
- 11:56Speaker 4: not two, not five. Forty. I don't think forty people
- 11:59Speaker 4: a day drown in the United States. I don't know
- 12:03Speaker 4: how many people drown a day in the United States.
- 12:05Speaker 4: I really don't. You know who probably knows. Chat GPT.
- 12:09Speaker 4: Let's ask chat GPT, how many people die in the
- 12:12Speaker 4: How many people drown every day? How many people drown
- 12:17Speaker 4: in the USA every day? I ask? Because of the
- 12:23Speaker 4: forty in France, Okay, let's see. Searching the web, it
- 12:28Speaker 4: says the forty deaths in France were shocking because they
- 12:31Speaker 4: happened in a very short period during a heat wave.
- 12:33Speaker 4: But in the United States, drowning is unfortunately a much
- 12:36Speaker 4: more common every day cause of death. Oh my goodness,
- 12:40Speaker 4: forty five hundred drowning deaths per year, which works out
- 12:43Speaker 4: to twelve people every day. Well, good lord, twelve people
- 12:48Speaker 4: a day here in the US, forty in one day
- 12:52Speaker 4: in France, so they're like three and a half days
- 12:54Speaker 4: worth here. That's just so ridiculous. And why climb change
- 13:01Speaker 4: that I worry about climate change every day. I worry
- 13:04Speaker 4: about climate change because I kind of wanted to move
- 13:07Speaker 4: to Europe, but it is the number one place in
- 13:10Speaker 4: the world that's heating up. Europe, London, Spain, Germany, all
- 13:17Speaker 4: of it. It is the place that is heating up
- 13:20Speaker 4: the most. I don't mean cities, because we know Las
- 13:23Speaker 4: Vegas is the number one in the country, but in
- 13:25Speaker 4: the world, the UK, Wales, Great Britain, all of that.
- 13:31Speaker 4: That is the number one place where climate change is
- 13:34Speaker 4: heating And it was one hundred and four yesterday, It's
- 13:37Speaker 4: going to be one hundred and four today. And they
- 13:39Speaker 4: die in from the heat. Only eleven percent have air conditioned.
- 13:42Speaker 4: They die in and these are climate related deaths. Forty
- 13:47Speaker 4: people were alive two days ago. They got hot yesterday
- 13:53Speaker 4: they went in the water and they drowned. Forty people.
- 13:56Speaker 4: Forty families now missing family members. Why climate So when
- 14:01Speaker 4: people think that climate change isn't already killing people, climate
- 14:06Speaker 4: change killed forty people yesterday, forty in one day. Climate change,
- 14:12Speaker 4: It's real. It's here, and it's killing us. That I
- 14:18Speaker 4: worry about Donald Trump, not so much, you know, not
- 14:22Speaker 4: so much, although he is single handedly destroying everything we love.
- 14:27Speaker 4: The Rose Garden has been destroyed, the back Oval lawn,
- 14:30Speaker 4: circular lawn that the White House was destroyed by the
- 14:32Speaker 4: W W E cage thing that he put up. The
- 14:35Speaker 4: East wing is still in rubble. The Kennedy Center, he
- 14:37Speaker 4: refuses to remove the tarp from in front where his
- 14:40Speaker 4: name was removed, the reflecting pool. He's ruining everything, but
- 14:44Speaker 4: the Oval office has been ruined with his TMU fixtures
- 14:47Speaker 4: on the wall. You know, he he is ruining everything.
- 14:52Speaker 4: So that's why I just can't think about him every day.
- 14:54Speaker 4: I just can't. You know, he does not live rent
- 14:58Speaker 4: free in my head. When I get all off of
- 15:00Speaker 4: the show here, I don't think about him for the
- 15:02Speaker 4: rest of the day. What do I think about? What
- 15:04Speaker 4: project am I going to work on this afternoon? I
- 15:06Speaker 4: think about you know, I look at Zillo every day.
- 15:10Speaker 4: Every day I look at Zillo in various places to
- 15:13Speaker 4: see could I afford to live? There is this someplace
- 15:15Speaker 4: I could go every day? And then I worry when
- 15:19Speaker 4: I go alone? You know? Is this a place I
- 15:22Speaker 4: would move by myself? Would ever have a good vet?
- 15:25Speaker 4: Were there doctors there that I would like? Yeah? That's
- 15:30Speaker 4: that's what I think about every day. And of course money.
- 15:34Speaker 4: There's not a day that I don't think about money.
- 15:37Speaker 4: What about y'all? What do you guys think about every
- 15:40Speaker 4: day outside of Donald Trump? What are your concerns, what
- 15:44Speaker 4: are your worries? What are your happinesses? What are your joys?
- 15:49Speaker 4: You know, I think about those every day. Ways to
- 15:51Speaker 4: have fun, ways to you know, try to have a
- 15:53Speaker 4: good life. What do you think about every day other
- 15:58Speaker 4: than Donald Trump? What do you think about? What do
- 16:02Speaker 4: you worry about? What is your biggest If I asked
- 16:05Speaker 4: you right now, what is your biggest worry right now,
- 16:10Speaker 4: what is the first thing that pops off the top
- 16:12Speaker 4: of your head? What is your biggest concern right now
- 16:16Speaker 4: right now? What is your don't say that Democrats are
- 16:19Speaker 4: going to lose the midterms, because that shouldn't be your
- 16:22Speaker 4: biggest concern because you're out of control of that. You
- 16:27Speaker 4: can't control what's gonna happen in the midterms. So you
- 16:31Speaker 4: can vote, and you can encourage others to vote, but
- 16:34Speaker 4: you can't control it. So what is your biggest worry?
- 16:40Speaker 4: Leave the comment down below or in the chatroom at

- 17:20Speaker 4: Is it retirement? Retirement? Income? What is your biggest worry?
- 17:26Speaker 4: What do you wake up and as you're going through
- 17:28Speaker 4: the day, have a recurring worry about what is it.
- 17:32Speaker 4: I'm curious because the media, the news media, would have
- 17:36Speaker 4: us believe that our biggest worry is the reflecting pool
- 17:40Speaker 4: Donald Trump Iran war, and that's doom's maxing. The media
- 17:47Speaker 4: and social media in particular, have us all believing that
- 17:52Speaker 4: all day long, our worries are the apocalypse, basically the doom.
- 17:57Speaker 4: It's called doom maxing. Everything's out of control and and
- 18:03Speaker 4: you know, it's all spinning in the wrong direction like AI.
- 18:06Speaker 4: Everyone's like, AI is gonna kill us. It's gonna take
- 18:08Speaker 4: our jobs. They said that about everything. They said that
- 18:12Speaker 4: about the telephone, they said that about the television, they
- 18:16Speaker 4: said that about radio, they said that about the Internet.
- 18:20Speaker 4: The Internet's gonna take all of our jobs. The Internet,
- 18:22Speaker 4: it's gonna, you know, bottle. And while it did do
- 18:24Speaker 4: a lot of terrible things, mainly disconnect us, the thing
- 18:28Speaker 4: that's supposed to connect us most has actually disconnected us
- 18:31Speaker 4: the most. But none of the doom scenarios that everyone
- 18:36Speaker 4: came up with for whatever it was, have come true.
- 18:42Speaker 4: They dooms maxing is not new. Every generation has there. Oh,
- 18:46Speaker 4: this is going to destroy life as we know it.
- 18:49Speaker 4: Technology or movement or person and guess what they never do.
- 18:54Speaker 4: Hitler didn't destroy the world. He tried, but he didn't.
- 18:58Speaker 4: We got through it, mostly stalin Donald Trump. We will
- 19:02Speaker 4: get through and there will be some semblance of a
- 19:05Speaker 4: country afterwards, and maybe it'll be darker, maybe it'll go
- 19:08Speaker 4: even more to the right, who knows. But he will
- 19:11Speaker 4: be dead. He's eighty. He's going quickly if he you know,
- 19:18Speaker 4: at an auction, he's already on the going twice. Going
- 19:21Speaker 4: once has already happened. Going twice is where he's at.
- 19:24Speaker 4: He's almost at the going three times and gone. So
- 19:29Speaker 4: but we will survive it. So what is your biggest worry?
- 19:34Speaker 4: Because meta and social media keeps creating doom and doom
- 19:42Speaker 4: scenarios and everything is life or death and everything is
- 19:47Speaker 4: if you don't do this, we're all gonna die sort
- 19:49Speaker 4: of thing. That's what everything is. It's called doomsmaxing. AI
- 19:53Speaker 4: is gonna kill you. AI is gonna take your job.
- 19:55Speaker 4: AI is gonna make you poverty stricken. That's all that's
- 19:59Speaker 4: out there. There's no good stories about AI. It's all
- 20:01Speaker 4: how it's gonna harm you. Oh, we have no restrictions.
- 20:05Speaker 4: Elon Musk is gonna take over the world, and you
- 20:09Speaker 4: know you're all gonna be working for him one day
- 20:10Speaker 4: and just just doom. That's all that's in the news.
- 20:15Speaker 4: If you watch the news now, it's just doom after
- 20:17Speaker 4: doom after doom after doom after doom. And that's because
- 20:21Speaker 4: of how it affects your brain, and how it keeps
- 20:23Speaker 4: you engaged, and how it keeps you coming back. The
- 20:26Speaker 4: algorithm is not stupid. The algorithm knows the more it
- 20:30Speaker 4: gives you the visions of the apocalypse, the more you're
- 20:33Speaker 4: gonna be hooked. But what is your real concerns? You're
- 20:41Speaker 4: honest in your heart concerns. What are you worried about today?
- 20:47Speaker 4: According to some polls and stories, it's healthcare. The number
- 20:53Speaker 4: one thing on most people's minds, the affordability and access
- 20:57Speaker 4: of healthcare if people are aging. So what is your
- 21:02Speaker 4: biggest worries? Type it in the batroom or type it
- 21:04Speaker 4: down below. What is your biggest worries? What do you
- 21:08Speaker 4: worry about the most? I'd love to hear it. I'd
- 21:12Speaker 4: love to hear it. So tell me tell me something good.
- 21:33Speaker 1: Now is show side?
- 21:40Speaker 4: All right? So let's check what people are saying about,
- 21:42Speaker 4: what they fear, what their biggest dooms are Oh, let's
- 21:46Speaker 4: see right now from Rachel Mira right now, my biggest
- 21:49Speaker 4: concern is my health and having a lot of checkups
- 21:52Speaker 4: and I pray everything is fine. See healthcare. That's that
- 21:55Speaker 4: is one of the number one concerns in America today.
- 22:00Speaker 4: Let's see that. You know who is going to have
- 22:03Speaker 4: the Constitution amended to stay in power permanently. He can't
- 22:06Speaker 4: see they make you worry about that. We have been Oh,
- 22:09Speaker 4: he's gonna get a third term. Donald Trump is not
- 22:12Speaker 4: getting a third term. No one will say that to
- 22:15Speaker 4: his face. The constitution prohibits it. There will not be
- 22:21Speaker 4: a constitutional amendment. It takes two thirds of the states
- 22:25Speaker 4: to ratify it, and they won't. They won't, and it
- 22:30Speaker 4: takes years to ratify a constitutional amendment years. Mississippi just
- 22:38Speaker 4: abolished slavery about ten years ago on their books. They
- 22:43Speaker 4: never sent the votes, so it takes years to amend
- 22:48Speaker 4: the Constitution. They can't do it instantly. Congress Senate has to.
- 22:52Speaker 4: Congress has to write it, approve it, send it to
- 22:55Speaker 4: the Senate, who has to approve it. Then two thirds
- 22:58Speaker 4: of the states have to ratify it. They're not gonna
- 23:03Speaker 4: and he'll die even if he got worst case scenario,
- 23:07Speaker 4: he gets a third term, he'll die. He's not gonna
- 23:09Speaker 4: make it through his second term. He will die before
- 23:12Speaker 4: he leaves office. He is too sick and too demented.
- 23:18Speaker 4: So don't worry about that. When they bring it up,
- 23:21Speaker 4: just laugh, say no, it's not going to happen, because
- 23:25Speaker 4: if it does, we have bigger problems than him getting
- 23:28Speaker 4: a third term. If he is allowed to stay, then
- 23:33Speaker 4: we've lost the country. We've the Constitution. Over the weekend
- 23:37Speaker 4: had a birthday. I don't know why that isn't what
- 23:40Speaker 4: we celebrate. Why we celebrate seventeen seventy six and the
- 23:43Speaker 4: Declaration of Independence, I'll never know. It's the document in
- 23:47Speaker 4: seventeen eighty eight that gave us all the power, the Constitution.
- 23:51Speaker 4: And over the weekend it was the celebration of the ratificing,
- 23:54Speaker 4: the ratifying of the Constitution. That should be a holiday.
- 23:58Speaker 4: It's not, but it should be. And that document is
- 24:03Speaker 4: not gonna let him have a third term, and they're
- 24:04Speaker 4: not going to amend it in time. So don't worry
- 24:08Speaker 4: about that. Okay, ask for healthcare, Yeah, that's a worry.
- 24:13Speaker 4: You should worry about that. Let's see I listened to
- 24:16Speaker 4: the news this morning. A bit. Other than that, I
- 24:19Speaker 4: concentrate on art, my garden, friends, family and pets. Good
- 24:23Speaker 4: for you. I watch BBC in the morning and then
- 24:25Speaker 4: that's it. Nothing for the rest of the day. I
- 24:27Speaker 4: do read the Google News news dot Google dot com,
- 24:31Speaker 4: which aggregates actually Applenews. I use Apple News, and I
- 24:35Speaker 4: choose the networks and the and the papers, you know,
- 24:38Speaker 4: New York Times, Washington Post, La Times, this sort of stuff. Uh,
- 24:41Speaker 4: and it gives me those stories. So Apple News is
- 24:44Speaker 4: what I use. I also fear never having the money
- 24:48Speaker 4: to get me and my cat into a house where
- 24:49Speaker 4: I can live a little more on my terms. That's
- 24:51Speaker 4: a big fear housing and the affordability of housing. In fact,
- 24:55Speaker 4: Congress just passed a bipartisan bill yesterday to try to
- 24:59Speaker 4: make housing more for They're limiting the number of investors
- 25:02Speaker 4: that can buy houses, single family houses. They're they're loosening
- 25:05Speaker 4: up restrictions on funding for manufactured homes. They're they're trying
- 25:10Speaker 4: to do a bunch of things that make it easier
- 25:12Speaker 4: for people to buy a house. Will it I don't know. Uh,
- 25:16Speaker 4: it's well intentioned, I don't know that it'll do much
- 25:20Speaker 4: let's see, I fear that Donald Trump will never be
- 25:22Speaker 4: made to face consequences for his crimes. Why I don't
- 25:25Speaker 4: fear that. There's a lot of very rich white men
- 25:28Speaker 4: who have never faced consequences for their crimes. And my
- 25:30Speaker 4: life went on. Okay. There are so many people that
- 25:34Speaker 4: have wronged gay people, killed gay people, fired gay people
- 25:39Speaker 4: for being gay, prevented gay people from succeeding, said horrible
- 25:43Speaker 4: things about gay people, and never had to come up
- 25:46Speaker 4: and ever they got to live long strom Thurmon lived
- 25:49Speaker 4: to be like a hundred plus. He was a fucking
- 25:51Speaker 4: Confederate racist, neo Nazi, fascist pig. He never got his
- 25:56Speaker 4: come up in ever. So yeah, I don't if Donald
- 25:59Speaker 4: Trump never gets punished, Oh well, he is already being punished.
- 26:03Speaker 4: Donald Trump has a miserable life. Listen to him talk.
- 26:07Speaker 4: He's miserable. He should be having the time of his
- 26:11Speaker 4: fucking life. Obama had the time of his life. He
- 26:14Speaker 4: was the president and he had fun and he made
- 26:17Speaker 4: it look easy. And no matter how stressed he got,
- 26:21Speaker 4: he never conveyed that to the American people because he
- 26:25Speaker 4: was a president. Donald Trump should be having the time
- 26:30Speaker 4: of his life. He is grifting a nation. He is
- 26:32Speaker 4: making billions of dollars for him and his family. He
- 26:37Speaker 4: should be having a ball instead. He is miserable. And
- 26:42Speaker 4: why is he miserable Because he's a miserable person. He's miserable,
- 26:46Speaker 4: and so that's my revenge on Donald Trump. He has
- 26:49Speaker 4: nobody that loves him. None of his family cared for him.
- 26:53Speaker 4: No one's going to attend his funeral, no head of state.
- 26:57Speaker 4: The rest of the world this morning condemned him. The
- 27:00Speaker 4: rest of the world leaders this morning all came out
- 27:02Speaker 4: and said he is not helping the world. We don't
- 27:04Speaker 4: trust the United States as a partner anymore. Donald Trump
- 27:07Speaker 4: is a problem. He's not well loved, he's not well respected.
- 27:12Speaker 4: Most of America hates him. In a new poll, his
- 27:14Speaker 4: approval rating is below thirty percent, So most of the
- 27:18Speaker 4: country hates him. The only people that still build him
- 27:21Speaker 4: up and boost his ego are these insane, insane MAGA people.
- 27:26Speaker 4: A lot of MAGA has left him now or they're
- 27:29Speaker 4: just being quiet about it. They're not as raw raw
- 27:32Speaker 4: as they used to be. Oh yeah, about twenty or
- 27:35Speaker 4: thirty percent of MAGA is still all in for the president.
- 27:37Speaker 4: And they're the ones we hear on social media and
- 27:40Speaker 4: they're the ones we see being interviewed. They don't speak
- 27:43Speaker 4: for the country. The country does not like Donald Trump.
- 27:46Speaker 4: Americans en mass do not like Donald Trump. Now, if
- 27:51Speaker 4: you're maga and you're mad at me for saying that,
- 27:53Speaker 4: I don't fucking care. It's a fact. It's backed up
- 27:57Speaker 4: by research and by polling data. He is underwater in
- 28:01Speaker 4: all but three states. Forty seven states disapprove of him.
- 28:05Speaker 4: He's minus twenty one in Florida Florida, he's minus seventeen
- 28:10Speaker 4: in Texas, he's minus sixty in California, minus forty four
- 28:15Speaker 4: in Washington. The man is completely underwater in approval ratings.
- 28:20Speaker 4: He lives a terrible, miserable life. So I don't care
- 28:24Speaker 4: what happens to him. I don't because no one loves
- 28:29Speaker 4: him and he's miserable. So you know, one day nature
- 28:34Speaker 4: will put him out of his misery. He'll drop and
- 28:36Speaker 4: that's that. Let's see what are some of the other concerns.
- 28:41Speaker 4: We'll read through them during this quick break and come
- 28:43Speaker 4: back and talk about doom maxing. How everyone seems to
- 28:47Speaker 4: do it. Let's see, I'm worried about money. Yeah, everyone,
- 28:51Speaker 4: it just seems money. I see the word money in
- 28:54Speaker 4: here a lot. I'm worried about money. Money is my
- 28:56Speaker 4: number one concern. If I had access to money, I'd
- 28:59Speaker 4: have a show on Free Speech TV. I spoke to them,
- 29:02Speaker 4: James Nabel, I spoke to Free Speech TV. They want
- 29:05Speaker 4: life and segments back. They want it back weekly, one
- 29:09Speaker 4: hour show. They want it yep, And if I had
- 29:13Speaker 4: the money, love.
- 29:24Speaker 5: It's broadcasting from a completely different point of view.
- 29:28Speaker 2: Yours.
- 29:29Speaker 1: Listen daily to the.
- 29:30Speaker 7: Corell cast on your favorite streaming service. You're listening to
- 29:41Speaker 7: the corell cast driving you home or driving you crazy.
- 29:48Speaker 5: It's broadcasting from a completely different point of view. Yours
- 29:53Speaker 5: listen daily to the.
- 29:54Speaker 7: Corell cast on your favorite streaming service. You're listening to
- 30:05Speaker 7: the Carill cast driving you home or driving you crazy.
- 30:17Speaker 4: Michelle in the chatroom at YouTube dot Com, forward Sashmari
- 30:20Speaker 4: Carrell says, my mom always tells me it's hard to
- 30:22Speaker 4: change the constitution. I only hope you're both right. I am,
- 30:25Speaker 4: we are. And by the way, if Democrats do win
- 30:29Speaker 4: in the midterms, a Democratic House or Senate or both,
- 30:32Speaker 4: then there's no third term period because it would never
- 30:36Speaker 4: pass Congress or the Senate. And then all well, he
- 30:39Speaker 4: could declare martial law. No, there are elections during martial law.
- 30:44Speaker 4: There's nothing he can do. It's fear. It's dooms maxing.
- 30:48Speaker 4: MAGA is great at doom maaxing. They're great at it,
- 30:53Speaker 4: and they love to do it to liberals. They love
- 30:56Speaker 4: to trigger liberals with stuff that they know is never
- 30:59Speaker 4: gonna happen. And any Republican Uh. Tucker Carlson yesterday announced
- 31:04Speaker 4: he's left the Republican Party that he can't take it.
- 31:07Speaker 4: Tucker Carlson has left the Republican Party. Marjorie Taylor Green Christy, No,
- 31:13Speaker 4: they're they're there, They're they know the Titanic is sinking
- 31:16Speaker 4: and they're jumping off. Okay, so that's doom maxing. He's
- 31:22Speaker 4: never going to have a third term. He's not going
- 31:25Speaker 4: to live through his second. Okay, so that's don't even
- 31:29Speaker 4: sweat it. But what if? What if? What if an
- 31:32Speaker 4: asteroid hits the planet? There is there is more of
- 31:36Speaker 4: a chance because guess what, that's happened several times. An
- 31:41Speaker 4: asteroid hitting planet Earth has happened several times. A president
- 31:45Speaker 4: getting a third term in America never happened, you know,
- 31:51Speaker 4: so worry about things that could actually happen don't doom
- 31:55Speaker 4: Max because Meg Maga wants you to. They love to
- 31:58Speaker 4: trigger liberals into the worst case scenarios. I worry the
- 32:03Speaker 4: Affordable Care Act will be eliminated and I won't be
- 32:05Speaker 4: able to afford healthcare. Everybody worries about that. According to
- 32:09Speaker 4: our recent poll, healthcare is the number one issue leading
- 32:12Speaker 4: into the primaries or to the midterms. Healthcare number one issue.
- 32:17Speaker 4: Number one healthcare because we're aging. There's a price of
- 32:22Speaker 4: everything to worry about too. I only get twenty five
- 32:24Speaker 4: dollars a month in food stamps, and it takes sixty
- 32:26Speaker 4: to fill a gas tank. Amen. Maga is split on
- 32:30Speaker 4: a ran and the resolution of that divide is based
- 32:33Speaker 4: on who is more loyal to Trump. Amen. I heard
- 32:36Speaker 4: a Trump supporter today that what's his name, Dean Withers,
- 32:39Speaker 4: the young, cute, blonde kid that always takes on Maga.
- 32:42Speaker 4: I won't do that. All of these liberals, now, these
- 32:45Speaker 4: liberal podcasters and broadcasters are getting likes and views and
- 32:49Speaker 4: making lots of money. Maybe I should do it, but
- 32:52Speaker 4: they're sitting across from a MAGA person and they're having
- 32:56Speaker 4: some sort of debate. That's like trying to teach math
- 32:59Speaker 4: to a pig. It frustrates the human and pisses off
- 33:01Speaker 4: the pig. I would never do that because they're not
- 33:04Speaker 4: gonna listen. And when this woman said, Donald Trump never
- 33:08Speaker 4: said he likes to see naked ladies at a pageant,
- 33:11Speaker 4: and then Dean Withers pay played the tape of the
- 33:16Speaker 4: Howard Stern Show where Donald Trump said I like to
- 33:20Speaker 4: go in their clothes are off, played it, and you
- 33:23Speaker 4: know what she said, We know what I like a
- 33:26Speaker 4: real man that's attracted to women. I like a you know,
- 33:29Speaker 4: men have testosterone, and you know what, I like that
- 33:32Speaker 4: a real So at first she said he didn't do it.
- 33:36Speaker 4: Then once it was proved he did it, Oh well,
- 33:39Speaker 4: it's okay because he's just a straight guy attracted to
- 33:42Speaker 4: straight women. These were underage girls. And if her daughter
- 33:47Speaker 4: were raped by Donald Trump, I bet she'd excuse it away.
- 33:50Speaker 4: There are women that would offer up their daughters to
- 33:53Speaker 4: be raped by Donald Trump. There are they exist, and she,
- 33:57Speaker 4: this woman I saw today, is one of them. So
- 34:02Speaker 4: they're irredeemable. There's no point debating them. There's no point
- 34:06Speaker 4: trying to teach them, there's no point. The word irredeemable
- 34:10Speaker 4: means unable to be redeemed. MAGA is irredeemable. It's a
- 34:17Speaker 4: cult and unless they are deprogrammed, and it would take years,
- 34:22Speaker 4: then we're just going to have to understand that there
- 34:24Speaker 4: is this functioning cult and not listen to them and
- 34:26Speaker 4: not let them elect people. I'm waiting for nature to
- 34:31Speaker 4: free us of him. Yes, it's going to Andy hum
- 34:35Speaker 4: needs a co anchor. Well, he hasn't answered me, James,
- 34:37Speaker 4: I've emailed him three times. However, I will say from
- 34:43Speaker 4: Free Speech TV that they did offer Life in segments.
- 34:45Speaker 4: They said, if you want to do an hour long
- 34:47Speaker 4: show that is less politics and more lifestyle, cooking, travel, entertainment,
- 34:54Speaker 4: other kinds of issues that aren't directly related to Donald Trump,
- 34:57Speaker 4: we'd love to have that show. I would love to
- 35:01Speaker 4: stop doing this Monday through Thursday show and just do
- 35:04Speaker 4: a weekly one hour Life and segments close through CHDD
- 35:08Speaker 4: and as a podcast. I would love that. I think
- 35:12Speaker 4: what's stopping me about three grand at eight?
- 35:17Speaker 5: You're visiting really corell dot com daily.
- 35:20Speaker 6: You're missing out. Get the podcast videos and the blug
- 35:24Speaker 6: including recipes at reallycorrell dot com. That's really k A
- 35:28Speaker 6: r e l dot com.
- 35:31Speaker 1: Show time is here. No time to fear.
- 35:35Speaker 2: Correll is so near because show time is here.
- 35:38Speaker 1: So on with the show. Let's give it a go.
- 35:42Speaker 1: Correll is the one that you need to know.
- 35:48Speaker 4: Okay. Doom maxing, Yes, that's that's and we're all caught
- 35:53Speaker 4: up in it. Everybody does it doom maxing because the
- 35:56Speaker 4: algorithm serves it, because it serves the rich. The rich
- 36:01Speaker 4: get rich off your fear, and so they make you
- 36:05Speaker 4: afraid all the time, and they bring about issues that
- 36:10Speaker 4: aren't issues, and then the real issues they cover up.
- 36:14Speaker 4: They cover up climate change. What's happening in Europe right now,
- 36:19Speaker 4: one hundred and four degree heat, forty people dead. All
- 36:22Speaker 4: we should think about from this point forward is climate change.
- 36:25Speaker 4: Here in Las Vegas. We should not build one more
- 36:29Speaker 4: house that does not have reflective walls, concrete that absorbs
- 36:32Speaker 4: the heat, and is water self sufficient, not one. Climate
- 36:38Speaker 4: change should be the number one thing on everybody's mind.
- 36:42Speaker 4: Climate change period, it's killing people every day. It's not
- 36:48Speaker 4: the number one thing. Well, the reasons I don't want
- 36:52Speaker 4: a car they contribute to climate change. I mean, if
- 36:55Speaker 4: I could get an affordable neat see that, my mind
- 36:57Speaker 4: goes back to my problems. I'm sorry, I don't mean
- 37:00Speaker 4: to do that during the show, but that that's really
- 37:02Speaker 4: where my mind goes, Like, I want a car that
- 37:05Speaker 4: doesn't trash the environment but doesn't cost a fortune. Well,
- 37:10Speaker 4: you can't bin. Even a Nissan Leaf is twenty thousand dollars.
- 37:13Speaker 4: I ain't got twenty thousand dollars. If I got twenty
- 37:16Speaker 4: thousand dollars, that'd be seven episodes of Life and Segments,
- 37:20Speaker 4: which Free Speech TV said I could fund by tax
- 37:23Speaker 4: deductible donations. They said, if you find a sponsor that
- 37:29Speaker 4: wants to give to Free Speech TV, like ten thousand
- 37:31Speaker 4: dollars or five thousand dollars, we'll cut you a check
- 37:34Speaker 4: back for production cost. Out of that, we'll keep a
- 37:37Speaker 4: small amount and we'll cut you a check back so
- 37:40Speaker 4: you can finance your throat show through people who want
- 37:42Speaker 4: a tax Right off, I'm all, well, where do I
- 37:45Speaker 4: find those people? Where do I find a rich gay
- 37:49Speaker 4: vegan that wants to give, you know, fifty grand for
- 37:51Speaker 4: me to do Life in Segments? It's like, what tree
- 37:54Speaker 4: does that grow on? So climate change, they're dying in
- 37:58Speaker 4: Europe today. That should be on everyone's mind. I mean, yeah,
- 38:02Speaker 4: they're talking about Carrie keyth Steimer resigning their sixth prime
- 38:06Speaker 4: minister in seven years. And I wish we had that
- 38:10Speaker 4: system where we could just make Trump go, but we
- 38:13Speaker 4: don't because after the midterms, what's really going to happen
- 38:16Speaker 4: to him unless he's impeached, you know. So what are
- 38:20Speaker 4: your fears? You know, what are your fears? What are
- 38:25Speaker 4: your biggest fears? I tried to put my worries about
- 38:28Speaker 4: friends with severe health problems, but I was given a
- 38:31Speaker 4: sad face in my text woodn't show. I wonder why
- 38:34Speaker 4: that is. Let's see vote female next time, I agree,
- 38:39Speaker 4: or for Pete boota judge. Vote for a gay guy.
- 38:41Speaker 4: He'll get the job done, you know, because we haven't
- 38:45Speaker 4: had enough change. We need a woman, or we need
- 38:47Speaker 4: a gay guy. We need we need some change on here.
- 38:52Speaker 4: So yesterday I want to talk to you about the
- 38:56Speaker 4: economics of things that you consume that you probably don't
- 39:00Speaker 4: think about. I want to call this segment stuff that
- 39:02Speaker 4: you don't think about, because I think about this stuff,
- 39:06Speaker 4: but I'm quite sure you don't, Okay, And yet when
- 39:09Speaker 4: I find it out, I'm so very intrigued by it.
- 39:11Speaker 4: It sticks with me. So some things I found out
- 39:14Speaker 4: yesterday stuck with me, and I wanted to share them
- 39:17Speaker 4: with you because it it really stuck with me. So
- 39:22Speaker 4: I was feeling a little down yesterday. Actually, I was
- 39:25Speaker 4: feeling like a failure. True story. I felt like a
- 39:27Speaker 4: complete failure. I'm not a failure. I've made history. I'm
- 39:31Speaker 4: a prominent gay figure. But I felt like a failure
- 39:33Speaker 4: yesterday because I couldn't afford to bip down to LA
- 39:36Speaker 4: to go to this thing and be on this panel.
- 39:38Speaker 4: I thought, you don't even got five hundred dollars you
- 39:40Speaker 4: could spend on this. I shouldn't have to spend it,
- 39:43Speaker 4: by the way, they should pay their speakers. But you
- 39:45Speaker 4: know what I mean. I was like, you really want
- 39:47Speaker 4: to do it. That's something I really wanted to do
- 39:51Speaker 4: and I couldn't because of money. And now I find
- 39:54Speaker 4: out about my car. I'd like to say, just keep
- 39:56Speaker 4: the frickin' car and go buy a convertible Jeep and
- 39:59Speaker 4: call it a day, because that's my dream car. I
- 40:02Speaker 4: know they're not comfortable, I know all about it. I
- 40:04Speaker 4: want a Jeep convertible, That's what I want. Or an
- 40:07Speaker 4: electric a complete like a Kia Nero, a Kiya Nero,
- 40:11Speaker 4: or a Jeep convertible. Those are my dream cars. That's
- 40:13Speaker 4: what I want. I should be able to go buy
- 40:15Speaker 4: a jeep at this point in my life. I'm sixty
- 40:17Speaker 4: three years old. I have the credit. I could go
- 40:21Speaker 4: buy it, but it's making the payment that would be
- 40:23Speaker 4: the problem. So those things that come into my mind
- 40:26Speaker 4: I felt, so I felt like a failure. So I said, well,
- 40:29Speaker 4: how much money? Because actually Randy Radar texted me and said,
- 40:34Speaker 4: all you keep shouting at windmills, like with your music
- 40:37Speaker 4: and whatever. You know, get your book out, get your
- 40:39Speaker 4: book out, get your book out. You know, your cookbook,
- 40:42Speaker 4: because I'm a brilliant writer. So I said, okay, how
- 40:46Speaker 4: much does music publishing a cookbook or being a podcaster
- 40:51Speaker 4: pay in real life? How much does it pay in
- 40:54Speaker 4: this new entertainment world in which we live. Maybe a'll
- 41:00Speaker 4: have never questioned how much your podcasters make the podcast
- 41:06Speaker 4: that you listen to. You know, maybe you've never wondered
- 41:11Speaker 4: how much the music artist that you listen to makes,
- 41:14Speaker 4: because you probably listened to very big artist who make
- 41:17Speaker 4: a ton of money. But that's not the music industry.
- 41:21Speaker 4: There's the five percent of the music industry that are
- 41:24Speaker 4: signed to labels and have big deals and are selling
- 41:27Speaker 4: a bunch of records or having a lot of streams,
- 41:30Speaker 4: the Madonna, the Taylor Swift, even the middle of the
- 41:32Speaker 4: road people that are still getting millions of views and
- 41:37Speaker 4: millions of streams. That's about five percent of the music industry.
- 41:42Speaker 4: The same with podcasters. Yes there's Don Lemon and Adam
- 41:46Speaker 4: Mockler and Brian Taylor Cohen. But you know that's not
- 41:52Speaker 4: me or Mark Thompson or you know or whoever else. Yes,
- 41:58Speaker 4: Stephanie Miller probably makes around a million a year, maybe
- 42:03Speaker 4: a little under. We know David Pacman does. So they're okay,
- 42:08Speaker 4: they're doing okay, They're not rich. They're not Joe Rogan,
- 42:12Speaker 4: who made one hundred million dollars last year. Stephanie Miller
- 42:15Speaker 4: did not make what Joe Rogan made last year. David
- 42:18Speaker 4: Pacman did not make what Joe Rogan. But how about
- 42:22Speaker 4: the others out there? Okay, how about the others? Okay? So, first,
- 42:29Speaker 4: since since Randy criticized me doing music, which I love
- 42:33Speaker 4: my new song and the label loves my new song,
- 42:35Speaker 4: so they're gonna remix it and promote it. That's great.
- 42:39Speaker 4: So I said, what does the average independent artist? Since
- 42:44Speaker 4: only five percent of all music artists are signed to
- 42:47Speaker 4: a major record label, Warner Brothers, Universal Music. All of
- 42:51Speaker 4: that five percent, that's it. Ninety five percent of the
- 42:56Speaker 4: music you hear is not signed to a major record
- 43:01Speaker 4: So you know how much do the people not signed
- 43:05Speaker 4: to a major make? And then I found out that
- 43:08Speaker 4: even if you are signed to a major record label,
- 43:11Speaker 4: you're not making what people think you're making. So this
- 43:14Speaker 4: is what Chad Gpt and Claude, because Claude is good
- 43:16Speaker 4: at research, had to say. The frustrating answer is that
- 43:20Speaker 4: there isn't a single reliable average because music income is
- 43:23Speaker 4: incredibly skewed. A tiny number of artists earn a lot,
- 43:27Speaker 4: while the overwhelming majority earned very little. That said, if
- 43:31Speaker 4: you're asking what does the typical independent artists make from recordings, streaming, publishing,
- 43:37Speaker 4: and royalties alone, without touring or merchandise, the best estimates
- 43:42Speaker 4: can be found somewhere between twenty five hundred and twelve
- 43:45Speaker 4: thousand dollars per year, with many artists making substantially less.
- 43:51Speaker 4: One survey found the average indie musician earned about fifty
- 43:55Speaker 4: seven hundred dollars a year, while the median was closer
- 43:59Speaker 4: to twenty five one hundred dollars. A more recent independent
- 44:02Speaker 4: artist income report found indie artist averaging at about eleven thousand,
- 44:07Speaker 4: five hundred a year. Spotify data shows that the one
- 44:11Speaker 4: hundred thousands highest earning artist generate okay, this is the
- 44:17Speaker 4: top one hundred thousand artist on Spotify. Okay. The top
- 44:22Speaker 4: one hundred thousand artist earned about seventy three hundred dollars
- 44:27Speaker 4: a year in twenty twenty five. For a songwriter who
- 44:31Speaker 4: owns both the master and publishing, one hundred thousand streams
- 44:35Speaker 4: is three hundred to five hundred dollars. One million streams
- 44:39Speaker 4: is three thousand to five thousand dollars, ten million streams
- 44:44Speaker 4: thirty thousand to fifty thousand dollars, one hundred million streams
- 44:50Speaker 4: three hundred thousand to five hundred thousand dollars. Do you
- 44:54Speaker 4: have any idea how much one hundred million record sales
- 44:56Speaker 4: would have made you? Do you have any idea how
- 44:59Speaker 4: much one hundred thousand plays on the radio would have
- 45:02Speaker 4: made you? If you had gotten a hundred million radio plays,
- 45:07Speaker 4: you would have made tens of millions of dollars. Now
- 45:13Speaker 4: you make under five hundred thousand. YEP, Tens of thousands
- 45:18Speaker 4: of streams are mostly promotional. Hundreds of thousands of streams
- 45:23Speaker 4: might buy dinner. Millions of streams start to become meaningful income.
- 45:30Speaker 4: Can you believe that? So a majority of artists in
- 45:34Speaker 4: my position who are not on a major label make
- 45:37Speaker 4: eleven grand a year. That's it. So then I asked
- 45:40Speaker 4: about podcasters. I said, what about podcasters? And it knows
- 45:45Speaker 4: how much I make from Patreon. I make a thousand
- 45:48Speaker 4: a month from Patreon. I'm very transparent about that. It
- 45:52Speaker 4: says your thousand a month is certainly not at the
- 45:55Speaker 4: bottom of Patreon. In fact, based on the data available,
- 45:58Speaker 4: you're above the vast majorority of independent podcasters. Most podcasters
- 46:03Speaker 4: never make a dollar. Depending on the study, somewhere between
- 46:06Speaker 4: seventy to ninety percent of podcast either have no monetization
- 46:10Speaker 4: at all or earn less than enough to cover the
- 46:13Speaker 4: hosting cost, never build a paying audience. Patreon is very
- 46:19Speaker 4: top heavy. Many creators have fewer than ten patrons, less
- 46:24Speaker 4: than one hundred dollars a month in support, and no
- 46:26Speaker 4: recurring revenue. At one thousand dollars a month from Patreon,
- 46:30Speaker 4: you're earning about twelve thousand a year from audience support alone.
- 46:34Speaker 4: Patreon income benchmarks puts you in the top twenty percent
- 46:40Speaker 4: the only thing above you is a major independent creator,
- 46:43Speaker 4: and they often make more than ten thousand dollars a month. Now,
- 46:47Speaker 4: given your stature in media, you should be a major
- 46:50Speaker 4: independent creator, and I'm happy to explore with you ways
- 46:54Speaker 4: to get you to that income. Thanks CHATJPT. People like
- 46:59Speaker 4: Don Lemon, who make millions a year or Joe Rogan,
- 47:03Speaker 4: who make millions of dollars a year, are rare, to
- 47:06Speaker 4: say the least. A majority of podcasters out there right now,
- 47:11Speaker 4: about seventy to ninety percent, do not even make one
- 47:14Speaker 4: thousand dollars per year. Wow. Wow, Wow. So the people
- 47:27Speaker 4: that you enjoy listening to aren't making a ton of money.
- 47:31Speaker 4: They're just not, And so I worry about that. When
- 47:37Speaker 4: we were talking about what is your biggest worry? The
- 47:40Speaker 4: industry that I'm in entertainment, podcasting, songwriting, movie production, television production,
- 47:48Speaker 4: all of it. Everything I do, public speaking, live stage,
- 47:52Speaker 4: all the revenues from that have gone down, down, down,
- 47:57Speaker 4: And the only people making enough money to actually live
- 48:01Speaker 4: are the superstars. Even large talent that signed to a
- 48:06Speaker 4: label can't tour because the expense is too high and
- 48:10Speaker 4: they have to charge too much for tickets, so their
- 48:13Speaker 4: audiences won't come. I looked at Kelly Clarkson tickets yesterday
- 48:18Speaker 4: because Caesar said, oh, look, we're doing a fifty dollars special.
- 48:22Speaker 4: So I looked for fifty dollars tickets for Kelly Clarkson
- 48:25Speaker 4: here in Las Vegas. I couldn't find any. They said
- 48:27Speaker 4: they're running this special. But to sit in the first
- 48:31Speaker 4: area down front of Kelly Clarkson is six hundred and
- 48:35Speaker 4: seventy five dollars per ticket. Most people cannot afford that.
- 48:42Speaker 4: If they buy that ticket, they can't afford it. They're
- 48:44Speaker 4: putting it on the charge card or whatever. I looked
- 48:47Speaker 4: at other acts that I might want to see, same thing,
- 48:50Speaker 4: six hundred, seven hundred dollars. Comedy clubs now charge fifty
- 48:56Speaker 4: bucks plus two drinks, so it's basically one hundred bucks.
- 49:00Speaker 4: Some comedy clubs charge twenty or thirty, but they still
- 49:03Speaker 4: have a two drink minimum, so it's still seventy to
- 49:06Speaker 4: eighty bucks. If I do a show in the Bay Area,
- 49:11Speaker 4: I'm going to have to charge forty to fifty dollars
- 49:14Speaker 4: a ticket, and I don't want to, but that's how
- 49:17Speaker 4: much I'm going to have to charge, and that's not
- 49:19Speaker 4: going to rake in a ton of money for me
- 49:22Speaker 4: that's going to pay the venue and travel cost. So
- 49:28Speaker 4: I worry about my career because monetizing it has become
- 49:32Speaker 4: increasingly hard, And as Chad Gpt told me yesterday, yes
- 49:36Speaker 4: it's maddening. Some people with hardly any skill or talent
- 49:40Speaker 4: or experience start a podcast or start a social media account.
- 49:44Speaker 4: They get millions of viewers or listeners and they're making
- 49:46Speaker 4: a shit ton of money. There's no formula. We don't
- 49:49Speaker 4: know why that happens. Meanwhile, someone with lots of experience
- 49:53Speaker 4: and lots of talent doesn't make anything. Someone will record
- 49:57Speaker 4: a song, the song will go viral. They'll make a
- 49:59Speaker 4: shit ton the money off the song. Other people, established
- 50:03Speaker 4: recording artists, release records and you barely hear them and
- 50:07Speaker 4: they disappear. How many of you remember Texas Hold Them
- 50:11Speaker 4: by Beyonce and all of the controversy about her doing
- 50:13Speaker 4: a country song, Well, both her and the song are
- 50:17Speaker 4: out of out of the No one's talking about them
- 50:20Speaker 4: right now. They come and they go. Madonna's got a
- 50:23Speaker 4: huge album coming. It'll be gone. Madonna the studio, she
- 50:28Speaker 4: did an interview. The studio would not give her the
- 50:31Speaker 4: budget that she needed for her bioplas. So now they're
- 50:34Speaker 4: not doing this. They're going to do it as a
- 50:35Speaker 4: series that pets. Because Universal wouldn't give Madonna money for
- 50:41Speaker 4: a movie. Universal Madonna, they told her no, now it's
- 51:02Speaker 4: show side. Can you imagine Madonna not being able to
- 51:11Speaker 4: finance her own biography Madonna, they had the script, everything
- 51:17Speaker 4: was ready to go, and Universal would not approve the budget.
- 51:21Speaker 4: And she said, well, I've had a big life. It's
- 51:23Speaker 4: expensive to film. She even said she'd film it in Serbia.
- 51:26Speaker 4: She said that I'll film it in Serbia. They didn't
- 51:28Speaker 4: believe her. They said, you won't last three days in Serbia.
- 51:32Speaker 4: She goes, it's work. Of course I will. They wouldn't
- 51:35Speaker 4: finance her film, so she couldn't even take the script
- 51:39Speaker 4: with her, the script that she wrote about her life.
- 51:43Speaker 4: Universal kept, And now she's gone to Netflix and they're
- 51:47Speaker 4: making it a six part mini series. That's the industry
- 51:52Speaker 4: I'm in now, where Madonna can't even get the financing
- 51:54Speaker 4: for her movie. I'm sure your industries you're seeing the
- 52:00Speaker 4: same thing. So what do you really worry about? That?
- 52:05Speaker 4: That's what I really worry about. I don't worry about
- 52:07Speaker 4: Donald Trump all day long. When this show's over in
- 52:10Speaker 4: seven minutes. I won't think about Donald Trump for the
- 52:12Speaker 4: rest of the day except please die, please die, please die,
- 52:15Speaker 4: please die, please die, Please kill over dead, Please choke
- 52:19Speaker 4: on a chicken wing or McDonald McNugget. Oh, if he
- 52:22Speaker 4: would only choke to death on a McNugget, it would
- 52:24Speaker 4: be so just prophetic. Just do it, you know. But
- 52:31Speaker 4: I don't think about the rest of it, and neither
- 52:35Speaker 4: do you. So leave down below. Healthcare is obviously something
- 52:38Speaker 4: you think about. That's a recurring theme. Money is something
- 52:41Speaker 4: you obviously think about, and see that does tie into politics.
- 52:45Speaker 4: Donald Trump controls your bottom line. He starts an unjust
- 52:50Speaker 4: war with Iran. Suddenly we're all going broke. I filled
- 52:54Speaker 4: up my bike this morning twelve dollars. You're like, well,
- 52:57Speaker 4: I'd love that. Well, it's not normally to twelve dollars
- 53:00Speaker 4: to fill it up. It's normally seven or eight dollars,
- 53:03Speaker 4: but twelve dollars to fill it up because gas was
- 53:06Speaker 4: five dollars a gallon. So yes, Donald Trump, and he
- 53:10Speaker 4: affects healthcare. They want to get rid of Obamacare because
- 53:13Speaker 4: the name Obama is on it. So yeah, he does
- 53:18Speaker 4: affect your bottom line when it comes to money, he does,
- 53:22Speaker 4: and he's fucked it up. He has totally ruined your
- 53:26Speaker 4: bank account. Home prices, interest rates are directly tied to
- 53:32Speaker 4: what Donald Trump does, and so he's affecting our housing
- 53:38Speaker 4: and then our debt. By the time he's done, will
- 53:41Speaker 4: be fifty trillion in debt. Let me ask this to
- 53:47Speaker 4: chat GPT. Let's see. Let me see. Here's let's do
- 53:52Speaker 4: a number that's shocking. So the United States is fifty
- 53:54Speaker 4: trillion in debt, or will be if we paid back
- 53:59Speaker 4: one mills billion dollars a day of our national debt,
- 54:04Speaker 4: how long would it take to pay it off? So
- 54:09Speaker 4: if we were to cause it's like a credit card,
- 54:12Speaker 4: So if we were to pay off a million dollars
- 54:14Speaker 4: a day towards our national debt, how long would it
- 54:18Speaker 4: take to pay it off? Let's see, I'll use the
- 54:22Speaker 4: current US debt figure. So the current debt is thirty
- 54:25Speaker 4: nine trillion dollars. If we paid a million dollars per day,
- 54:33Speaker 4: Oh my christ, So we could pay one million dollars
- 54:40Speaker 4: a day on our national debt. How long do you
- 54:44Speaker 4: think it would take to pay it off? How long?
- 54:47Speaker 4: How long? The current national debt of thirty nine point
- 54:52Speaker 4: two eight trillion dollars if we paid one million dollars
- 54:59Speaker 4: a day. If we crewed no more debt and just
- 55:02Speaker 4: paid a million dollars a day back, how long do
- 55:08Speaker 4: you all think it would take? Come on, someone in
- 55:10Speaker 4: the chat room, give me a number, anybody, you're not
- 55:15Speaker 4: going to believe this. One hundred and seven five, one
- 55:21Speaker 4: hundred and seven thousand, five hundred years. It would take
- 55:26Speaker 4: at a million dollars a day, over one hundred thousand
- 55:31Speaker 4: years to repay our national debt. At ten million dollars
- 55:36Speaker 4: a day, it would take ten thousand, seven hundred years
- 55:41Speaker 4: to pay back our national debt. If we gave okay,
- 55:46Speaker 4: so let's say every American gave a dollar a day. Okay,
- 55:50Speaker 4: a dollar a day, So that's three hundred and twenty
- 55:53Speaker 4: seven million dollars a day. If we paid three hundred
- 55:57Speaker 4: and twenty seven million per day, how long? So if
- 56:00Speaker 4: every American every day gave one dollar towards the national debt,
- 56:05Speaker 4: every American, old, young, babies, whatever, if we paid three
- 56:10Speaker 4: hundred and twenty seven million dollars per day, it would
- 56:16Speaker 4: still take three hundred and twenty nine years to pay
- 56:19Speaker 4: off the national debt. And that's with every American paying
- 56:23Speaker 4: a dollar a day three hundred and twenty nine years,
- 56:29Speaker 4: every American paying ten dollars a day or five hundred
- 56:33Speaker 4: and twenty dollars or what would that be? Ten dollars
- 56:36Speaker 4: a day would be five hundred and twenty No, No,
- 56:39Speaker 4: three hundred sixty would be three thousand, six hundred and
- 56:41Speaker 4: fifty dollars a year. If every American paid three hundred
- 56:46Speaker 4: and sixty five dollars three thousand, six hundred and fifty
- 56:51Speaker 4: dollars per year, it would still take thirty two years
- 56:56Speaker 4: to pay it off. At a dollar a day day
- 57:00Speaker 4: three hundred and twenty nine years. And if we gave
- 57:04Speaker 4: a million dollars a day every day to the national debt,
- 57:08Speaker 4: it would take over one hundred thousand years. And by
- 57:14Speaker 4: the time he's done office, we're going to be fifty
- 57:17Speaker 4: trillion dollars in debt. That is a debt that is
- 57:22Speaker 4: never payable. We will never pay that off ever. Ever.
- 57:30Speaker 4: You saw, if we paid three hundred and twenty seven
- 57:34Speaker 4: million dollars a day, it would still take three hundred
- 57:37Speaker 4: and twenty nine million years to pay it off. It's
- 57:41Speaker 4: never gonna happen. So we're screwed as a nation. We're
- 57:48Speaker 4: always going to be in debt, your children, your children's
- 57:50Speaker 4: children there for if a generation is one hundred years,
- 57:54Speaker 4: we're going to be in debt for one hundred thousand years,
- 57:57Speaker 4: or basically, you know, ten thousand generations. Humans are not
- 58:04Speaker 4: gonna last as long as our national debt. Humans will
- 58:07Speaker 4: be off planet Earth and we'll steal howe money to somebody.
- 58:13Speaker 4: Oh my god. Put your comments down below? What is
