- 0:43Speaker 1: economics emphasis. Let's begin with Courtney f Beauty seems like
- 0:50Speaker 1: a convenient name for a beauty influencer. Who got this
- 0:53Speaker 1: clip that's responsible for this and anything we should know
- 0:57Speaker 1: about it. It is sunscreen made by Pepsi that you
- 1:01Speaker 1: can eat. Oh if you're hungry for sunscreen, how handy?
- 1:07Speaker 4: Right?
- 1:07Speaker 1: Or if you got the sun in your belly? What
- 1:10Speaker 1: the hell does that?
- 1:10Speaker 3: Even meving the age old problems exactly.
- 1:14Speaker 2: The sunscreen's keeping me from getting skin cancer, but I
- 1:17Speaker 2: just can't eat it, which shows a solution. All right,
- 1:21Speaker 2: play this stupid crap.
- 1:22Speaker 4: I want to talk about this brand new This is
- 1:24Speaker 4: from Vacation. They did a collab with Pepsi and they
- 1:27Speaker 4: released a wild cherry flavor tinted lip gel sunscreen with
- 1:32Speaker 4: SPF of thirty. This is gonna be one of those
- 1:35Speaker 4: things that I are really good, are really bad?
- 1:37Speaker 1: Oh my god. It tastes just like cherry pepsi.
- 1:39Speaker 4: If you like cherry pepsi at all, grab this thought
- 1:43Speaker 4: it was just going to be cherry, but it has
- 1:45Speaker 4: that cold afternoe to it.
- 1:46Speaker 1: This is going in my purse. Oh.
- 1:49Speaker 3: First of all, shut up.
- 1:50Speaker 5: Second of all, it's not it's not sunscreen that you
- 1:53Speaker 5: put on your skin.
- 1:54Speaker 3: It's a lip ball, right clear when she said lip gel. Okay,
- 1:58Speaker 3: I'm getting burnt to a crisp and I'm starving, but
- 2:00Speaker 3: I only have room in my pocket for one. Dude,
- 2:03Speaker 3: my idea better.
- 2:07Speaker 1: I am. It's just so annoying to me.
- 2:09Speaker 3: A cola after days.
- 2:10Speaker 1: That is.
- 2:11Speaker 5: I'm not a fan of anything cherry flavored, first of all,
- 2:14Speaker 5: but that seems like a cherry coke.
- 2:17Speaker 3: You don't like a cherry coke?
- 2:19Speaker 5: Nope, I don't like any artificial cherry flavor. Robotusen ruined me.
- 2:23Speaker 3: On that too, does not like cherry flavored stuff.
- 2:26Speaker 1: Yeah, I admit I used to enjoy a cherry coke
- 2:30Speaker 1: or pepsi now now and again. But yeah, I get it.
- 2:33Speaker 5: You're you sophisticated for that now, Well, yeah, exactly, not
- 2:38Speaker 5: a peasant jack.
- 2:40Speaker 1: All right, right, I've moved up to.
- 2:41Speaker 3: You might have a cherry coke today, and now you
- 2:43Speaker 3: mentioned I haven't had a pop in like ten years.
- 2:45Speaker 1: But I might have one today. I'll have a Cabinet
- 2:47Speaker 1: Sauvignon flavored Cabinet Sauvignon plays. Here is another effing influencer.
- 2:53Speaker 1: This fella does this even me set up. He had
- 2:57Speaker 1: an anti abortion shirt on and he goes into a
- 3:00Speaker 1: coffee shop in Des Moines and some chick goes wild
- 3:03Speaker 1: at him.
- 3:03Speaker 5: Yeah he so he was actually going outside to make
- 3:07Speaker 5: a video about the coffee shop and this chick and
- 3:10Speaker 5: she is wearing big she is your token liberal, big
- 3:14Speaker 5: rainbow sunglasses, the whole nine.
- 3:16Speaker 1: Oh boy, well we want we don't hear You just
- 3:21Speaker 1: said a bunch of stuff and then you don't want
- 3:23Speaker 1: to hear, don't want to hear it. Don't kill yourself.
- 3:27Speaker 3: Yeah that's very kind.
- 3:30Speaker 1: Christ, you can still turn to Christ Jesus president them.
- 3:35Speaker 3: So yeah, anyways, the coffee here was decent, but I
- 3:39Speaker 3: don't know about the clientsell.
- 3:42Speaker 1: Wow, that is ripped straight from something we did towards
- 3:45Speaker 1: the end of the radio show. Political disagreement is increasingly
- 3:49Speaker 1: treated as a serious moral offence rather than a simple
- 3:52Speaker 1: difference of opinion. And when you see the world that way,
- 3:55Speaker 1: punishing someone for holding different views becomes a moral good.
- 3:59Speaker 3: How could you get that mad about that?
- 4:03Speaker 5: Her face turned red in that video, by the way,
- 4:05Speaker 5: she was creaching right.
- 4:07Speaker 1: Yeah, but surely she's aware that a significant share of
- 4:11Speaker 1: the population differs. But it's not a difference of opinion.
- 4:16Speaker 1: It's a moral offense. It's like watching somebody beating a child,
- 4:21Speaker 1: watching somebody have a different opinion than you. How twisted
- 4:25Speaker 1: is that?
- 4:26Speaker 4: You know?
- 4:27Speaker 3: I remember my first coming across this gladys It must
- 4:34Speaker 3: have been about one. Did the Iraq Wars start two
- 4:39Speaker 3: thousand and three?
- 4:40Speaker 1: Yeah, somewhere in there March of O three, wasn't it.
- 4:44Speaker 3: Anyway. I was going to a public radio show, me
- 4:48Speaker 3: and a couple other guys to play some music on
- 4:51Speaker 3: their show. And this was back when Clear Channel was
- 4:56Speaker 3: a radio company, and they somehow got a associated with
- 5:02Speaker 3: George Bush. I don't even remember.
- 5:03Speaker 1: Why or how.
- 5:05Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, AnyWho, I show up at this public radio
- 5:08Speaker 3: station in this tiny town to play some music with
- 5:11Speaker 3: some guys, and somebody says to one of the other guys,
- 5:14Speaker 3: he works for a clear channel station, and the guy's
- 5:17Speaker 3: eyes got big and he took a couple of steps back,
- 5:21Speaker 3: and I was like, what what they got to do
- 5:25Speaker 3: with me?
- 5:26Speaker 1: Are you gonna spout fangs or grow horns?
- 5:27Speaker 3: And it was so weird. Now that's common, very very common,
- 5:32Speaker 3: you know, whether you support Trump or you live in
- 5:35Speaker 3: this state or whatever the hell it is. Was the
- 5:37Speaker 3: first time I'd ever come across. I was like, why
- 5:39Speaker 3: are you like recoiling in fear? Yeah, because of the
- 5:43Speaker 3: company I work for. It's strange.
- 5:45Speaker 6: Why do you care?
- 5:47Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, Well, for the reasons we've been talking about.
- 5:51Speaker 1: They view a difference of opinion as a moral offense.
- 5:55Speaker 3: That was the first time I'd ever come across that.
- 5:56Speaker 3: It was and at the time it struck me as weird,
- 5:59Speaker 3: and it still does.
- 6:00Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's a quaint as it should I know
- 6:02Speaker 1: the time you're talking about should hippy dippy? We're gonna
- 6:06Speaker 1: run nine again just because I want to. It's the
- 6:08Speaker 1: planet of the beavers, as I predicted.
- 6:10Speaker 3: Look, this beaver is.
- 6:11Speaker 2: Stealing a bre.
- 6:18Speaker 1: This beaver.
- 6:19Speaker 5: So the guy had the two by four kind of
- 6:21Speaker 5: leaning on the bed of his truck, and this beaver
- 6:23Speaker 5: just kind of came up and got on its hind
- 6:25Speaker 5: legs and put its little hands on the two by four,
- 6:27Speaker 5: put it in his mouth and took off.
- 6:29Speaker 1: Twitch.
- 6:29Speaker 3: Is better to yell at a beaver get out of there,
- 6:33Speaker 3: or bring that back as cute as hell?
- 6:39Speaker 5: And he couldn't catch it either.
- 6:40Speaker 3: I didn't know those little guys were fast.
- 6:44Speaker 4: You know.
- 6:44Speaker 3: We all do that though with pets and stuffy yell
- 6:47Speaker 3: at the dog.
- 6:48Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I actually say to my wife, sweetheart, he
- 6:52Speaker 1: doesn't actually speak English. Bring that scarf back here, honey.
- 6:58Speaker 5: That's not the amount of the amount of times that
- 7:01Speaker 5: I've looked at Frank and gone, what are you doing? Yes,
- 7:03Speaker 5: because he's going to answer me and say, well, in fact.
- 7:06Speaker 3: I am. But a dog does learn what twenty five
- 7:10Speaker 3: words or something like that. I don't think a beaver
- 7:11Speaker 3: learns any.
- 7:13Speaker 1: And not that I'm aware of, although some however, beaver's
- 7:16Speaker 1: communicates slapping their tail. A word got around down at
- 7:18Speaker 1: the damn that, hey, you don't be chewing on trees
- 7:22Speaker 1: in the forest like moron. They got a big store
- 7:24Speaker 1: over there.
- 7:25Speaker 2: It's got lots and lots of wood and people carry
- 7:28Speaker 2: it out for you anyway.
- 7:31Speaker 1: So this is what I teased. This is Boomer Sizin.
- 7:36Speaker 1: Are we sure that Boomer? I thought it was Dan Patrick.
- 7:39Speaker 1: Maybe it is Boomer a courtesy of WFAN, which is
- 7:42Speaker 1: a New York legendary sports radio station. But he's talking
- 7:46Speaker 1: about the Super Bowl and taxas in California. Role the
- 7:51Speaker 1: first one, Michael.
- 7:52Speaker 6: For winning the Super Bowl, the winning team, each player
- 7:55Speaker 6: gets one hundred and seventy eight thousand dollars. In other words,
- 7:58Speaker 6: the Super Bowl isn't a part of their dowary, and
- 8:01Speaker 6: because the game was played in California. In California has
- 8:04Speaker 6: a jock tax and they look at duty days. So
- 8:10Speaker 6: each team spends seven days in the state of California,
- 8:14Speaker 6: so those are seven duty days, and they pierce your
- 8:17Speaker 6: regular salary at three point five percent.
- 8:22Speaker 1: So he has to pay.
- 8:23Speaker 6: When you take an account, he got the one hundred
- 8:26Speaker 6: and seventy eight thousand plus his overall salary, he has
- 8:30Speaker 6: to pay the state of California for spending seven days
- 8:33Speaker 6: there two hundred and forty nine thousand dollars.
- 8:37Speaker 1: That's just so stupid.
- 8:41Speaker 3: I didn't understand all that, but I'm sure it's true
- 8:43Speaker 3: the end number.
- 8:44Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, because Brian the umpire is a good friend
- 8:48Speaker 1: and he's explained exactly how this works. Yeah. They count
- 8:50Speaker 1: how many days you work in California and then look
- 8:54Speaker 1: at your your total salary and everything and tax you
- 8:59Speaker 1: at californ your rates in the state.
- 9:02Speaker 3: How does any jock dak the big like the big
- 9:05Speaker 3: time contracts. God, they must spend a ton of money.
- 9:08Speaker 3: When you come to California to play a game exactly
- 9:11Speaker 3: like you you played for, well, the Kansas City Chiefs
- 9:13Speaker 3: and you got to play the Rams. You must think, oh, crap, coach,
- 9:16Speaker 3: We're going in on Thursday for a Sunday game. I'm
- 9:18Speaker 3: gonna be there three days.
- 9:19Speaker 1: I can't afford that. There's actually just a little more.
- 9:21Speaker 1: Let's listen to it.
- 9:23Speaker 6: It ends up costing him seventy one thousand dollars to
- 9:28Speaker 6: go play in California. Now, if I'm the NFLPA, now
- 9:31Speaker 6: you gotta remember, it's probably even more than that because
- 9:34Speaker 6: since he's in Seattle, he's playing, he's playing against San
- 9:38Speaker 6: Francisco forty nine ers. That's another day he's there. And
- 9:41Speaker 6: he's playing against the La Rams. That's another day he's there.
- 9:44Speaker 6: So he's probably had like nine or ten duty days
- 9:47Speaker 6: or maybe even more than that in the state of California.
- 9:50Speaker 6: So if I'm the NFLPA, I'm like, hey, we're not
- 9:53Speaker 6: playing any more super Bowls in you know, in California,
- 9:57Speaker 6: which not doing.
- 9:58Speaker 7: It my PA meant player Association. Well, yeah, because they're one.
- 10:04Speaker 7: They're in town for a week and a half or
- 10:05Speaker 7: two weeks or whatever it is for the Super Bowl.
- 10:07Speaker 7: But even those other games you go, they go on
- 10:10Speaker 7: like Friday for a Sunday game, or sometimes Thursday, depending
- 10:15Speaker 7: on how early it is.
- 10:16Speaker 1: But yeah, that's crazy. I didn't know that. It also
- 10:20Speaker 1: points out that for the stars of the game, getting
- 10:23Speaker 1: one hundred and seventy eight thousand dollars to play in
- 10:27Speaker 1: or win the Super Bowl after taxes, even without the
- 10:31Speaker 1: California thing, is just paltry. Sure, they want to win
- 10:35Speaker 1: because they want to win their competitors. I mean, for
- 10:39Speaker 1: like a guy who's going to have a one year
- 10:41Speaker 1: career on the special teams, he's very happy about it.
- 10:45Speaker 1: But yeah, how about Patrick Mahomes, not so much. No, No,
- 10:51Speaker 1: hold them super Bowls in Florida.
- 10:53Speaker 3: That's really interesting. No idea of that. That's a that's
- 10:56Speaker 3: a good story.
- 10:58Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I guess that's it.
- 11:04Speaker 3: I won't if the beaver knows that he goes to
- 11:06Speaker 3: steal a two by four in California.
- 11:08Speaker 2: Hey beaver, don't you know the tax rates in California,
