I'm Gonna Record This & Post It, Too! · Armstrong & Getty One More Thing

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Not only am I going to do this, I'm going
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: to record it and post it online. It's one more
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: thing I'm I think if someone were somehow covertly videoing
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: people having post electoral freakouts and weeping and gnashing their
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: teeth and screeching completely insane things, uh, that would be
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: that would be unethical. That would be untoward. It would
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: be unacceptable. On the other hand, when people do it
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: themselves and post it happily online, let it roll. Now
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: we have a collection of election night freakouts for you.
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: Yes, Jack, I have so hard a time wrapping my
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: head around the idea of being the kind of person
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: that falls to pieces over things like this. It's just.
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: Well and then take a video of the process and
• 0:56
  Speaker 3: puts it online for everyone to see.
• 0:58
  Speaker 4: I feel like that's just proof that.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: Being unable to cope is celebrated in certain, you know,
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: facets of modern society. Not just tolerated, but celebrated.
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: I feel like that if I lost my job today,
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: as the sole breadwinner of a family with two kids,
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: I would feel bad about myself if I broke down.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: I mean, you gotta soldier on and figure it out.
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: Let alone an election, I mean, come on.
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: That very thing happened to me in nineteen ninety six,
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: two babies. How about weeping and carrying on and screeching
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: at the internet which didn't really exist.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: It's too bad because you could have sat in your car,
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: which is the way you do it, and lighting and
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: did a TikTok video about how awful capitalism was or something.
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: No, just got to work.
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: Anyway, let's begin with you know, I was thinking of
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: having a vote for everybody's favorite freak out. Now these
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: are visual discs, gript doors, just so handsome and everybody
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: could communicate on who is editing what script, and they
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: include some racial references and stuff like that. I don't
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: think it's significant, but so just to make a note
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: everybody of which one you like the best, and we'll
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: have a vote at the end.
• 2:17
  Speaker 4: So this is a clip eighty one Michael, black woman
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: in car.
• 2:21
  Speaker 5: I'm sorry, no, no, no, why why? Why why do
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: you really.
• 2:34
  Speaker 6: Have you that bad?
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: Okay? Well, so the yeah, the doing my scoring.
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: The real problem here is the are you just mentally
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: ill or not?
• 2:50
  Speaker 6: Oh?
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: Is it mentally ill?
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: Or is this like rage bait that people post to
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: try to get other people to comment.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I know I know people who are
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: this upset, so I know it's real for some people.
• 3:05
  Speaker 4: Woman in room, real quick? Are we ranking him one
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: to five, one to ten? You use whatever scoring system
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: you like. This isn't entirely for you to to pick
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: your favorite. All right, I'm step wake up a mother way.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: Okay, black gal, I'm afraid to go to sleep. I
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: might wake up a mother blank and slave. Well, it's
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: gonna take probably at least a week to get slavery
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: go ahead again. And just thinking about some of the logistics.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: They will have to pass the legislation.
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: Trump works pretty quickly.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: Thus, yeah he's efficient.
• 3:44
  Speaker 4: Yeah, boy, that's a strong contender. Let's go on to
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: mom on couch.
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, she had a baby while finding out the
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: election results.
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: Right, Oh, that's unfortunate. This one a bit more to enjoy.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: Attractive forty eight year old gal with tattoos.
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: I am forty eight.
• 4:11
  Speaker 6: Years old, and I have never experienced anything like this
• 4:16
  Speaker 6: and never thought I would in this country. It's like
• 4:22
  Speaker 6: it's like I can feel.
• 4:26
  Speaker 5: The bean and the fear.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: She's doing the fake crying thing that I hate so much,
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: or coke where she's upset but she's not quite like
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: fully crying, but so she's got to keep the voice going.
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: Because I kind of got together a little bit.
• 4:40
  Speaker 4: I watched it. Look legit to me.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: I am very cynical about all hot chicks on any
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: social media that they're not just trying to get attention.
• 4:50
  Speaker 4: This one's simply labeled young woman. Is anyone else helping
• 4:54
  Speaker 4: a meltdown? I don't know how to do this. I
• 4:56
  Speaker 4: don't know how to wait. I'm so stressed now.
• 5:00
  Speaker 6: You can't look out into the world, into the people
• 5:03
  Speaker 6: of this country and see what's happening and how hard
• 5:08
  Speaker 6: we're all fighting for rights not to be taken away
• 5:13
  Speaker 6: from people.
• 5:17
  Speaker 4: Oh, I know, makes my ass tired.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: Yes, it's if I could be completely serious for a while.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: It is a serious mental health problem. We've got that.
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: We've convinced so many people that the more upset you are,
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: somehow you get a you know, a merit badge for it, or.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: The more importantly your opinion should be taken. And then
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: the idea, in fact, I think there is a and
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: you know what, we're taking the fun out of it.
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: We have Girl and Shining Shirt. Michael played Girl and
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: Shining Shirt.
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: We may not.
• 5:55
  Speaker 5: Have rights tomorrow.
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: Boy, this is really not making a good case for
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: women to be strong enough to run a contray off.
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: Let me just what did she say? We may not what,
• 6:04
  Speaker 2: we may not have right.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: We have rights to me, We might not have rights
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: to me. We might not have rights tomorrow. You will
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: not be able to speak freely, or assemble or have
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: a religion. You will find yourself quartering troops. Just try
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: to assemble. Good luck with it.
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm kidding, all right.
• 6:25
  Speaker 3: Are they just getting this way from the mainstream media?
• 6:28
  Speaker 3: Is that how this is all drawn down their heads?
• 6:32
  Speaker 5: Well?
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: No, I mean we're listening to social media posts, are
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: getting it from social media to our content to reinforce.
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: But Jack, anyway, you're trying to make a fun killing
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: serious point.
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: Well, actually, Katie's point is pretty good. I'm surprised there's
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: not more of a pushback among women, because, like, I've
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: never believed a woman can't be president, what about when
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: it's her time of the month or anything like that.
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: But these women, all these women who post, which it
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: seems to be mostly a female thing, are making the
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: case for misogynists that women can't handle real life. So
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: I would think to be pushed back among normal women. Hey,
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: knock it off, all right, you're giving us a bad look.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: Wow, what an interesting thought. Yeah, I would think that
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: actual and feminists. It becomes so loaded with various meetings.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: I mean, just women want to make sure that women
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: are taken seriously and have the rights and all.
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: Where are you on this?
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: Where are you on saying the girls, Hey, being emotional
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: is fine. Emotions are wonderful, but you got to quit
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: acting like a six year old.
• 7:34
  Speaker 3: Well, they're the same ones that are vouching for boys
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: to be playing in women's sports.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: They're all same umbrella.
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: They're so convinced that that is the righteous thing. But
• 7:42
  Speaker 4: getting back to the idea of.
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: Your idea is taken more or less seriously based on
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: your level of hysteria, and that there is a strong
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: disincentive to present an opinion calmly and rationally because that
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: gets you nothing. That is a cultural value that will
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: lead to only one place, and that is crazy Ville.
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: Crazyvill Yeah, Nuttyaton, Yeah, how we made the switch from
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: if you were going to get emotional, you tried to
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: hide it, or you might go in another room because
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: you didn't want to break down in front of people.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: How we made the switch from that, which is what
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: I grew up with and still practice myself. How we
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: made the switch from that to I want as many
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: people to see me crying as possible.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: Is an interesting thing, right, right, and again, I actually
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: hate sexism, but I think we've just gone way too
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: far toward mommy and completely lost daddy. Yeah, in society
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: where fathers have been systematically pushed out of the family,
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: and indeed all masculinity is toxic masculinity according to a
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: lot of people, and as I said during the radio show,
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: the great motherly impulse when the kids falls and skins
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: his knee is oh sweetheart, oh honey, oh hugs, and
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: Daddy's is yeah, you'll be fine, go play, You'll be great,
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: and that that's one of the greatest things you can
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: do for a kid is tell them setbacks are not permanent.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Pain doesn't last, You're great, You're fine. And having raised
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: three children and coached hundreds of others, when you say
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: that they are fine and they go play and they
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: have fun, and to have removed that from our children's
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: lives is obscene.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: Were most of these people you said one of them
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: was on the couch? Were some of them in their
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: car doing the Oh yeah.
• 9:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah, there are there are a few car camera people yet.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: And that's because the lighting, you think, Katie, that's how
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: it caught on.
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's the word on the Instagram street is
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: the car is the best lighting?
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: Got you?
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's kind of muted and it surrounds you and yeah,
• 10:07
  Speaker 4: oh well.
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: I am not optimistic about the future based on this stuff.
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: Hopefully it's fringe element that one loses their s and
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: then two I guess as a podcast, I could say
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: shit that loses their shit, and then then another subsection
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: on the diagram that feels the need to record it
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: and post it, and and then what is I actually
• 10:32
  Speaker 2: don't know this? So then you get feedback from people
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: who are feel bad that you're upset, or encourage your
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: upset or we're in this together, be brave, we're in
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: this together. It's that feeling of being part of a
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: close knit, nurturing mini community. Because you are threatened, they
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: sign very pleasurable they co sign your insanity.
• 10:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah yeah yeah.
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: Other thing about these videos is that since they've gone viral,
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: they're for sure all being monetized now because people are commenting.
• 11:08
  Speaker 3: And then you get that engagement and you know.
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: Well, that's a tough one. You could be just seriously
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: one legit upset and that's all you were doing was
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: expressing your consternation about the results. And then you get
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: a check for eight hundred dollars in Wow, me being
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: me crying on his little video made me ain't orn bucks.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: That's weird because when I calmly presented three arguments in
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: favor of the Harris Walls ticket, I didn't get check.
• 11:32
  Speaker 6: Right.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: Shit, let me think what should I do next time? Hmmm,
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: I think I'll lose my shit. What was I going
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: to say? I was gonna say something, Oh, I know
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: my favorite of all those.
• 11:46
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah yeah.
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: Again and again you sucked all the fun out of
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: it by bringing mental illness into it. At what point
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: does well you got neurosis and psychosis. Those are old
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: style terms, but I've always found them useful to be like, really,
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: neurotic is crazy?
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but you can I don't know, there is there
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: is definitely can turn that around. There There are people
• 12:14
  Speaker 2: so crazy they can't help it. But there's an awful
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: lot of get your act together, and you can get
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: your act together, or you can, like you know, roll
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: around in your despair and make it worse.
• 12:24
  Speaker 4: That's what you're assuming.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: There is no psychosis for the sheer ridiculousness of it.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: I've got to go with I'm gonna wake up a
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: slave lady.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: That's my vote.
• 12:36
  Speaker 7: Due wake up another Yeah, I mean, come on, how
• 12:44
  Speaker 7: do you top We're gonna wake up swaves.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: It's gonna take at least until mid December to reinstitute.
• 12:53
  Speaker 4: Good lord, come on, come on.
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: Kind of like Mom on the couch, because once we
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: started talking about her shooting a baby out while she
• 13:02
  Speaker 3: was screaming, the visual made it funnier for me.
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: It's a boy. Yeah, so I could use that during
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: the show.
• 13:10
  Speaker 4: I like, that's my favorite.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: Eh oh man. I was having my compound fracture, reset
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: had a baby and found out that Gamala hairs lost
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: at the same time.
• 13:23
  Speaker 4: Rough night.
• 13:29
  Speaker 2: It's wort's about eight hundred dollars.
• 13:30
  Speaker 4: I can learn to scream.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: Well, I guess that's it.
