0:57
Speaker 3: are joining me, So very glad Scott is able to
1:00
Speaker 3: join me from Key of Ukraine. Uh and here he
1:03
Speaker 3: is in the islava he's wearing. Is this a Ukrainian
1:06
Speaker 3: bandana you're wearing today? Are you? Are you slavin from?
1:11
Speaker 4: This is from when I used to work at the
1:13
Speaker 4: horse firm in Stalls in the morning and it was
1:16
Speaker 4: quite dusty.
1:17
Speaker 3: I thought you were joining ice there for a moment,
1:21
Speaker 3: covering your face and all I mean, so yes, all right,
1:27
Speaker 3: so let's begin. I do have show tunes on well, okay,
1:30
Speaker 3: So I was scrolling through Instagram. One of my posts
1:32
Speaker 3: has gone viral for me. It's gotten over forty five
1:34
Speaker 3: thousand views about cyclospora, which you guys aren't worrying about
1:39
Speaker 3: over there. It's only over here. Ah, but this parasite
1:43
Speaker 3: that's running rampant in our food. Uh. And I guess Scott,
1:48
Speaker 3: it's so amazing to me. The hateful comments. All my
1:52
Speaker 3: videos said was here's what you should eat, here's what
1:54
Speaker 3: you should avoid to try to avoid having the ships
1:57
Speaker 3: for two weeks, the negative, horrible comments underneath. And these
2:04
Speaker 3: are the same people who didn't want to wear masks
2:07
Speaker 3: during COVID. These are the same people, you know who
2:10
Speaker 3: just doubt any kind of science so much so that
2:14
Speaker 3: other commenters are saying, the guys just trying to tell
2:17
Speaker 3: you how not to get sick. Why are you being
2:19
Speaker 3: so despicable? But they are, They're They're absolutely horrendously despicable.
2:25
Speaker 3: And it just shows me that the United States is
2:28
Speaker 3: filled with terminally stupid individuals. And I'm getting really sick
2:32
Speaker 3: of being here and really sick of having to live
2:34
Speaker 3: around these people, because every day the terminal stupidity, where
2:38
Speaker 3: is its ugly head? I just saw Erica Kirk from
2:41
Speaker 3: Turning Point USA from a turning point rally, say, if
2:45
Speaker 3: a trans person or a gay person or any person
2:49
Speaker 3: gets in your face and they're you know, annoying you
2:52
Speaker 3: and they're talking bad about Charlie and everything else, you
2:55
Speaker 3: are a warrior and you have every right, you know.
2:57
Speaker 3: So basically she's inciting violence, which is ridiculous. And then
3:03
Speaker 3: we of course have what Trump did yesterday for no
3:07
Speaker 3: reason other than he can, and that he's got Biden Tourett.
3:10
Speaker 3: So anything that Biden did, he's just got to undo.
3:14
Speaker 3: The Trump administration announced yesterday that they are formally ending
3:18
Speaker 3: Biden era LGBTQ foster care protections. Now, these were introduced
3:23
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty four, and they required child welfare agencies
3:27
Speaker 3: receiving federal money to identify designated foster placements equipped to
3:32
Speaker 3: meet the needs of LGBTQ young people. In other words,
3:37
Speaker 3: let's not put the gay kids with the maga family.
3:39
Speaker 3: Let's not put the gay kids with the uber religious family,
3:43
Speaker 3: who are going to send them to repairtive therapy or
3:45
Speaker 3: beat them or whatever. And now Trump says, no, let's
3:49
Speaker 3: not do that anymore. It's just whatever wherever they land,
3:52
Speaker 3: they land. And this is wrong on so many levels. First,
3:57
Speaker 3: of all, a lot of care end up in foster
4:01
Speaker 3: care that are gay because their parents threw them out
4:04
Speaker 3: because they were gay. So now you're going to take
4:07
Speaker 3: kids who have already been marginalized by their biological parents
4:12
Speaker 3: and put them with God knows whom, because now the
4:15
Speaker 3: law that said you had to protect them, which it's
4:20
Speaker 3: called child protective Services, you had to protect them from
4:24
Speaker 3: foster care parents who may not be receptive to LGBTQ youth.
4:29
Speaker 3: Now that rule is gone, and so once again, tens
4:33
Speaker 3: of thousands of gay foster kids will be put into
4:36
Speaker 3: danger because they could end up in homes that either
4:39
Speaker 3: think they need to be repaired or think that, you know,
4:43
Speaker 3: anti trans, whatever it might be. This is going to
4:46
Speaker 3: hurt children from the party that claims everything is about
4:49
Speaker 3: the children. This is going to marginalize children from a
4:53
Speaker 3: party that again says we must protect children from drag queens.
4:57
Speaker 3: This is going to harm people. And I hate that
5:01
Speaker 3: he's got three two and a half more years. I
5:04
Speaker 3: hate that he's trying tonight Thursday night, he's going to
5:07
Speaker 3: try to subvert the election by going out on TV
5:11
Speaker 3: and saying that twenty twenty was illegitimate. And he has
5:14
Speaker 3: you know documentation that it was fake and that foreign
5:17
Speaker 3: governments interfered, which if that's the case, then how do
5:19
Speaker 3: we know that he won. He never thinks these things through.
5:22
Speaker 3: He's gonna go out and say the twenty twenty election
5:24
Speaker 3: had interference and was illegitimate, but he never stops to think, Well,
5:28
Speaker 3: that Matt calls into question his victory. But that's gonna
5:31
Speaker 3: be stupid. And now they're picking on gay kids again
5:35
Speaker 3: just because Cassis. So I will talk about sat and
5:40
Speaker 3: more with Scott, who is in Ukraine, not with the
5:42
Speaker 3: DAN data but with the vandamam of the horse Line
5:47
Speaker 3: as soon as we come back.
5:49
Speaker 5: If you're not visiting really Corell dot com daily, you're
5:53
Speaker 5: missing out. Get the podcast videos and the blug including
5:57
Speaker 5: recipes at really correll dot com. That's really ka R
6:01
Speaker 5: e l dot com.
6:04
Speaker 2: Show Time is here. No time to fear.
6:07
Speaker 1: Corell is so near because show time is here.
6:10
Speaker 2: So on with the show. Let's give it a go.
6:14
Speaker 2: Corell is the one that you need to know.
6:19
Speaker 3: It is this Gay Week with Corel and Scott Jacobson
6:22
Speaker 3: from The good Man Project and Ravel and other places.
6:25
Speaker 3: He is in Ukraine. Before we get to that story
6:28
Speaker 3: that I just said, how are things in Ukraine? Are you?
6:30
Speaker 3: How are you good? What's what's going on?
6:34
Speaker 4: We're in the middle of a minor heat wave relative
6:37
Speaker 4: to standards of temperature around here. In terms of bombing
6:41
Speaker 4: or bombardments, there's been not many in the way of
6:45
Speaker 4: what we've experienced in terms of the major obarments. I've
6:47
Speaker 4: referenced to some of the other sessions that we've done,
6:50
Speaker 4: but so far, so good. I just held a national
6:55
Speaker 4: news event based on what they call the Berkeley Protocol,
7:00
Speaker 4: which is adopted at the United Nations now and sort
7:02
Speaker 4: of a premise legally to turn regular news content and
7:09
Speaker 4: sift it through a process to see what is and
7:12
Speaker 4: what is not up to a standard of legal admissible
7:16
Speaker 4: evidence to things like the International Criminal Court or the
7:20
Speaker 4: General Prosecutor and so on.
7:21
Speaker 6: So I brought in various experts.
7:24
Speaker 4: I worked with the organization that I'm working with now
7:27
Speaker 4: at a legal hub, and it went off great without
7:29
Speaker 4: a hitch. And so there's been a lot of events
7:31
Speaker 4: and things like that.
7:32
Speaker 3: Well, the bigger question, did you go to Pride It
7:33
Speaker 3: was last week.
7:36
Speaker 6: No I didn't. Unfortunately, you could.
7:38
Speaker 3: Have gone out and gotten us all kind of great
7:40
Speaker 3: audio at the key of pride, and you were off
7:44
Speaker 3: dealing with the International Criminal Court, which, by the way,
7:48
Speaker 3: three days ago, our Secretary of State Marco Rubio said
7:51
Speaker 3: that we should leave, that we should not be a
7:53
Speaker 3: member of the ICC, and that it's a useless body.
7:59
Speaker 6: Because there's no lok politically expedient for.
8:01
Speaker 3: Him, because he's afraid his boss is going to be
8:05
Speaker 3: convicted of war crimes. And he should know all about
8:08
Speaker 3: useless bodies. He sits in a cabinet meeting surrounded by them. Yeah,
8:14
Speaker 3: so there we have that. So back to the gay
8:17
Speaker 3: story that Trump felt a need to do. You know,
8:22
Speaker 3: if there wasn't a need for this law, for this rule,
8:25
Speaker 3: it wouldn't be there. In other words, if Biden and
8:27
Speaker 3: his administration hadn't found a reason that this was needed,
8:32
Speaker 3: they wouldn't have made the law. And other countries paid
8:36
Speaker 3: attention when we did it, and they themselves then said, oh,
8:43
Speaker 3: maybe we need to look at our foster care systems
8:45
Speaker 3: and make sure that gay kids are being matched with
8:48
Speaker 3: good families. I'm now afraid that because he's you know, backslid,
8:54
Speaker 3: that other countries would go, oh, well, maybe we don't
8:56
Speaker 3: need to do it anymore either, and that just puts
9:00
Speaker 3: youth in trouble.
9:04
Speaker 4: So, I mean that's a pretty straight line from prevention
9:08
Speaker 4: of proper placement to a family that is accepting and
9:11
Speaker 4: healthy and simply taking off all the guardrails.
9:17
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm now let's go to it more. Do you
9:20
Speaker 3: know what, I'm not going to search for your email,
9:22
Speaker 3: Tell me a story and I'll tell you what it means.
9:28
Speaker 6: Well, there's been quite a few.
9:30
Speaker 4: There's a two interesting ones around news so GLAD found
9:36
Speaker 4: that forty six of two hundred and twenty five major
9:39
Speaker 4: studio films released in twenty twenty five included LGBTQ characters,
9:44
Speaker 4: approximately twenty point four percent. None reportedly featured a transgender character.
9:49
Speaker 4: The findings indicate that recent corporate retreats, as we've discussed
9:53
Speaker 4: many times from diversity initiatives, are becoming visible on screen,
9:57
Speaker 4: not merely in boardroom memos.
10:00
Speaker 6: So this is your area of expertise in it.
10:03
Speaker 3: Though, because I'm in the entertainment industry, let me first
10:08
Speaker 3: tell you Hollywood likes to think of themselves as innovators
10:13
Speaker 3: or boundary pushers. They're not. They can be. There's a
10:17
Speaker 3: few cases where they are, but for the most part,
10:20
Speaker 3: Hollywood likes to play it safe because they like money.
10:23
Speaker 3: So society likes gays. Let's throw gays in movies, society,
10:29
Speaker 3: it's not a gay. Let's take gays out of movies.
10:33
Speaker 3: You know. There was a great cartoon called the Jetsons
10:36
Speaker 3: when I was growing up. Yes, and they had a maid,
10:39
Speaker 3: a robut maid, and one day she was making fun
10:43
Speaker 3: of Miss Jane the daughter, uh and and miss and
10:47
Speaker 3: she goes Miss Jane in love, Miss Jane out of love.
10:54
Speaker 3: That's Hollywood with gays. President doesn't like this. He uh
11:04
Speaker 3: so that that is you know, they're in the money business.
11:07
Speaker 3: And that's said. Now here's an interesting point of fact.
11:10
Speaker 3: One of the biggest success stories of the year is
11:14
Speaker 3: the film Obsession. Have you heard about it?
11:17
Speaker 6: Yes, they have the where he.
11:20
Speaker 3: Makes the wish on the willow branch that says, I
11:22
Speaker 3: wish that she only cared about me, and then she
11:25
Speaker 3: only cares about him and becomes, you know, obsessed, and
11:29
Speaker 3: it's a it's sort of a me too movie because
11:31
Speaker 3: he takes away her consent because you know, he he
11:34
Speaker 3: makes her have no willpower. But all of this, but
11:36
Speaker 3: guess what both those leads are from the queer community.
11:42
Speaker 3: Now they're playing straight in the in the movie, but
11:46
Speaker 3: they're both from the queer community. So the notion the
11:49
Speaker 3: gays can't make money in Hollywood is blown out of
11:53
Speaker 3: the water by that movie alone. Okay, that's that's the
11:56
Speaker 3: first thing. Second of all, and most important. Every film
12:03
Speaker 3: from the past, when we were at twenty five thirty
12:05
Speaker 3: thirty five percent of movies having gay characters, all those
12:09
Speaker 3: movies made money. So in this instance, Hollywood is actually
12:14
Speaker 3: not following the money because every successful let's say streaming
12:21
Speaker 3: look at Euphoria, one of the biggest shows streaming, lots
12:25
Speaker 3: of gay leads, lots lots of gay sex, lots of
12:29
Speaker 3: gay leads. So there are a lot of films out
12:32
Speaker 3: right now that are doing very well that have gay characters.
12:36
Speaker 3: There are some that don't do so well, but that's
12:38
Speaker 3: because they're bad movies. RuPaul stopped That Train was a
12:41
Speaker 3: crappy movie. I mean, a comedy should have to be funny,
12:46
Speaker 3: you know, So I'm serious. I mean it's not that
12:49
Speaker 3: I just am not fond of RuPaul. I watched it
12:52
Speaker 3: as someone who loves like The Great Escape or The
12:55
Speaker 3: Long Long Long Long Train, or I grew up on
12:57
Speaker 3: the movies that that's parting the seventies, you were not around,
13:02
Speaker 3: but there were a bunch of movies that were on
13:04
Speaker 3: television or in the theaters. The Great Race where they
13:07
Speaker 3: took all these huge movie stars of yesteryear, Tony Curtis,
13:10
Speaker 3: ethel Mermon whatever. They took all these big stars that
13:14
Speaker 3: were big stars that they're not maybe big stars at
13:16
Speaker 3: that moment, but they used to be, and they would
13:19
Speaker 3: put them in these really campy setup movies, like a
13:23
Speaker 3: Great Race across the United States in old jalopies, or
13:28
Speaker 3: a Train that Wouldn't Stop or whatever I mean. And
13:31
Speaker 3: you know all the airport movies, I mean, come on, Airport,
13:34
Speaker 3: the Airport seventy five, Airport seventy six, Airport seventy seven.
13:38
Speaker 3: You know, there was always these former movie stars who
13:41
Speaker 3: were in them, and they were great fun and they
13:44
Speaker 3: were parodied very well by Zucker who did the movie Airplane,
13:49
Speaker 3: which was a parody of all of those movies and
13:52
Speaker 3: was brilliant. Stop that train wanted to be? That wasn't.
14:00
Speaker 3: Movies where there are LGBTQ people in them are doing well.
14:04
Speaker 3: So the notion that they had to cut back is ridiculous.
14:09
Speaker 3: They did it to curry favor with Donald Trump. Hollywood
14:13
Speaker 3: still wants to curry favor with Donald Trump, and subsequently
14:17
Speaker 3: they're not pushing the you know, and it's not when
14:19
Speaker 3: I say Hollywood, let's be real, there is no more Hollywood.
14:23
Speaker 3: There's like five companies. And as the lawsuits underway right
14:27
Speaker 3: now to stop the paramount Warner Brother merger, you know,
14:30
Speaker 3: there's really five companies that you can work for. And
14:33
Speaker 3: those five companies, most of them are owned by billionaires
14:37
Speaker 3: that know Trump or investment funds that rely on Trump,
14:41
Speaker 3: and so they're not in the Trump piss off business.
14:44
Speaker 3: So they did the ix nay on the gay thing
14:47
Speaker 3: for their bottom line, not because the public wasn't wanting
14:50
Speaker 3: the films, not because the public wasn't enjoying the films,
14:55
Speaker 3: just but it's just they want to curry favor.
14:58
Speaker 4: And a footnote to that talking about this also before
15:02
Speaker 4: Trump never had an issue before. No, this was when
15:05
Speaker 4: his political career came in.
15:07
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, there's a very singular life he lives in.
15:13
Speaker 3: He lived in New York. You can't spring a dead
15:15
Speaker 3: cat in New York without any a gay person, and
15:17
Speaker 3: if you do, they'll be pissed. But you know what
15:19
Speaker 3: I'm saying.
15:20
Speaker 6: I mean, yeah, was there a couple of years for right, You.
15:23
Speaker 3: Can't, you can't you know, New York is filled with gays,
15:27
Speaker 3: and so no, he never Trump only cares about himself,
15:30
Speaker 3: and he only cares about where the wind is blowing.
15:35
Speaker 3: And he found that anti gay sentiment works well for him,
15:38
Speaker 3: so suddenly he does it like yesterday. Making he had
15:42
Speaker 3: no reason this law for the foster care doesn't cost
15:46
Speaker 3: him anything. Okay, it's not like it's going to save
15:49
Speaker 3: him ten billion dollars. He had no reason to do
15:53
Speaker 3: this other than Joe Biden enacted it. Biden lives so
15:57
Speaker 3: rent free in his head, and his followers have such
16:01
Speaker 3: Biden turetts. Even under the post I talked about that
16:05
Speaker 3: I posted about the Cyclostpora, they're all, well Biden this, Biden,
16:09
Speaker 3: Biden Biden. I mean, they literally have Biden turetts. So
16:12
Speaker 3: Trump only cares when it's you know, if if suddenly
16:16
Speaker 3: Maga embraced the gays, Trump would suck dick, you know.
16:20
Speaker 3: I mean, so it's you.
16:21
Speaker 4: Know, it's until Malania.
16:23
Speaker 3: Well, God knows, no one can suck his. I mean,
16:25
Speaker 3: it's you know, mushroom size and this big According to
16:28
Speaker 3: Stormy Daniels, okay next.
16:34
Speaker 4: Still one more film on, so there's been so okay,
16:38
Speaker 4: So luxury brands increasingly recruit actors from Korean, Japanese and
16:46
Speaker 4: Thai boys love and girls love dramas. So the trend
16:51
Speaker 4: is showing was more international reach of queer Asian entertainment.
16:55
Speaker 4: But as with one of the other sessions, there's an
16:58
Speaker 4: increase in censorship and limitations on legal rights in those
17:02
Speaker 4: self same countries, So there can be some areas where
17:07
Speaker 4: entertainment can still hold at least a little bit stead
17:09
Speaker 4: for us, or at least in terms of the interest
17:11
Speaker 4: in countries.
17:13
Speaker 3: Aren't a good gauge because my god, every Asian man
17:15
Speaker 3: looks gay, so you know, I mean every K pop
17:18
Speaker 3: star looks like a queer. I'm true, I'm not now,
17:20
Speaker 3: look I'm you know, they just do.
17:23
Speaker 4: I'm not saying you don't have a point, right.
17:25
Speaker 3: I mean, come on have you seen?
17:28
Speaker 4: I mean, come on, okay, I remember it's going back
17:33
Speaker 4: a bit, but.
17:34
Speaker 3: Gay or Asian. There's a whole joke gay or Asian
17:37
Speaker 3: and they show photos.
17:40
Speaker 6: I believe you. There is a lady Manners at the pub.
17:44
Speaker 4: I remember she was doing hours and everything after after regular hours,
17:49
Speaker 4: and then but on her she had her computer and
17:50
Speaker 4: she's on a little keyboard and then got her phone
17:53
Speaker 4: open and it was just BTS playing.
18:01
Speaker 3: Look, gar is finely tuned, but when I go to
18:04
Speaker 3: Europe or Asia, it just goes bonkers because it's like
18:06
Speaker 3: Italian men, they're all freaking gay.
18:09
Speaker 6: You know what I mean, You've gone over triangle kind
18:12
Speaker 6: of yees I mean.
18:13
Speaker 3: And then South Korean K pop stars, every single one
18:17
Speaker 3: of those kids gay looks gay, gay gay gay gay gay,
18:20
Speaker 3: beautiful faces, perfect porcelain skin, fantastic moves. It's like you're gay,
18:27
Speaker 3: but they can't say it because then they wouldn't have
18:29
Speaker 3: all the screaming girls. Never understood it, but it is
18:36
Speaker 3: movement can make a difference in some ways. I mean, look,
18:41
Speaker 3: I didn't like the show, but Will and Grace did
18:44
Speaker 3: a lot for the gay community. I didn't like it,
18:46
Speaker 3: and now when you look at it, it's dated and bad.
18:49
Speaker 3: But actually at the time, in the nineties, the same
18:55
Speaker 3: sex marriage fight was going on at the same time
18:57
Speaker 3: Will and Grace was airing, and many a sociologist will
19:02
Speaker 3: tell you that it actually helped. It helped us win
19:06
Speaker 3: same sex marriage in many states. This is when it
19:09
Speaker 3: was doing it on a state level, not the federal level,
19:11
Speaker 3: but on a state level. It helped us win in
19:14
Speaker 3: many states because gays can't be that bad. There's Will,
19:19
Speaker 3: there's Jack. I like them, you know. So yes, Soap,
19:24
Speaker 3: the show Soap had a character named Jody played by
19:27
Speaker 3: Billy Crystal, who ends up being trans. But this is
19:32
Speaker 3: the seventies, you know, and there was a gay character
19:36
Speaker 3: on television. Was it well written though? And if we
19:39
Speaker 3: go back and look at today's standards, but was it helpful? Yeah,
19:44
Speaker 3: because even though it was bad visibility, it was at
19:47
Speaker 3: least visibility. So you're right. Entertainment can make inroads in
19:52
Speaker 3: places and in subtle ways, even just in commercials or
19:57
Speaker 3: you know that sort of thing. As I said before, though,
20:00
Speaker 3: Hollywood just goes with it. You know, if if Hollywood
20:03
Speaker 3: knew there was multiple of millions of dollars in making
20:05
Speaker 3: gay cinema, they turn they'd remake every Disney movie with
20:08
Speaker 3: queer leads. Oh wait, they already are. Never mind, I'm
20:13
Speaker 3: come on, Jafar Hello. But whatever.
20:17
Speaker 6: A good a great character, by the way, Yeah, well, well.
20:20
Speaker 3: All gay characters are hunt. Name one good gay character,
20:24
Speaker 3: Name one bad. Is there is there a gay villain.
20:27
Speaker 3: I can't even think of a gay villain. I really.
20:30
Speaker 3: I mean a lot of the villains in Disney movies
20:32
Speaker 3: are kind of gay, you know, the their emperors, or
20:37
Speaker 3: they're this or they're that, and they're very you know,
20:39
Speaker 3: effeminate and very, but they never say they're day.
20:44
Speaker 6: Yeah.
20:45
Speaker 3: I mean, she might be a lesbian and you know,
20:48
Speaker 3: outside of being an octopus Crillville, she's a gay icon.
20:54
Speaker 3: Not a great villain's act. Cruella Deville, as we now
21:03
Speaker 3: know from the movies, but misunderstood.
21:08
Speaker 6: That's what happened to the new one.
21:09
Speaker 3: Haven't you seen the news that live actual live action?
21:16
Speaker 4: Tell me, I've seen clips, but I don't records.
21:34
Speaker 2: Now it's show.
21:39
Speaker 3: Okay. So Cruella Deville's parents were killed by Dalmatians, Okay,
21:45
Speaker 3: at the behest of a villain, and that's why everyone
21:49
Speaker 3: thinks that she hates Dalmatians in the movies. She doesn't
21:53
Speaker 3: hate Dalmatians. In fact, she has several of pets in
21:58
Speaker 3: the movie. It's what's surname? It's not Glenn Close who
22:01
Speaker 3: is her boss? It's Emma. Oh god, I'm forgetting her
22:06
Speaker 3: boss in the movie is actually the villain. She is
22:09
Speaker 3: a fabulous fashion designer who gets taken advantage of by
22:14
Speaker 3: this evil boss. If you watch the live action movies
22:17
Speaker 3: Kuela Deville, yeah she does turn into like a villain,
22:21
Speaker 3: but she's really not a villain. She's just someone who's
22:24
Speaker 3: been treated very badly who finally snaps. And in the movies,
22:28
Speaker 3: she doesn't kill dalmatians, she did, you know, they soften that.
22:32
Speaker 3: She doesn't you know, doesn't make She does make a
22:35
Speaker 3: Dalmatian coat, but it's faux it's faux fir, it's not
22:38
Speaker 3: real dalmatians. So, yeah, you gotta watch the movies. Kruella
22:42
Speaker 3: is misunderstood. Okay, she like many villains, she's misunderstood.
22:48
Speaker 6: Didn't they do that in the Broadway play? Or they
22:53
Speaker 6: play version recently of Wicked? Wicked?
22:57
Speaker 3: Follow up in Wicked, She's not the In Wicked, the
23:01
Speaker 3: alphaba the green one who they say is wicked, the
23:05
Speaker 3: wicked witch quote unquote, She's not wicked. Wicked is really
23:10
Speaker 3: an allegory for our times. She discovers the man behind
23:14
Speaker 3: the curtain, Donald Trump, has no real power and that
23:19
Speaker 3: he's lying to everybody, using and manipulating everybody, including the
23:24
Speaker 3: monkeys that he's keeping prisoner to do his dirty work.
23:28
Speaker 3: She frees the money right flying monkeys. She she frees
23:33
Speaker 3: the monkeys, and he villifies her because she knows the
23:37
Speaker 3: truth about him. And in Wicked, they show that that
23:43
Speaker 3: she and that her sister Ariana Grant is in on
23:47
Speaker 3: the whole thing. She she knows what's really going on,
23:51
Speaker 3: and she ends up marrying the Jonathan Bailey character as well.
23:54
Speaker 3: So the Wicked Witch, she's not wicked. The wicked Witch
23:57
Speaker 3: is not wicked. In the Wizard of Oz, the wicked
23:59
Speaker 3: of which is the one that is villified because she
24:01
Speaker 3: knows the truth. Look at today, anyone that speaks the
24:05
Speaker 3: truth about Donald Trump is villified. It's right out of Wicked.
24:10
Speaker 3: You know this is nothing he's done as new So yeah, no,
24:14
Speaker 3: she's not in the In Wicked, there is no wicked Witch.
24:16
Speaker 3: In fact, in Wicked, you kind of frown on Glinda
24:22
Speaker 3: because she goes along with everything to be famous and
24:25
Speaker 3: to be accepted and to be well liked and to
24:28
Speaker 3: be loved. So she compromises her morals. Alphabe doesn't. She
24:33
Speaker 3: won't compromise her morals. She won't go along with it
24:36
Speaker 3: because she's given the chance. Just shut up about this
24:39
Speaker 3: and you'll have all the riches in the world. And
24:41
Speaker 3: she's like no, and besides, I can fly and he can't.
24:46
Speaker 3: And I know she goes so actually, Wicked, the good
24:49
Speaker 3: Witch isn't so good and the bad Witch is not bad.
24:55
Speaker 3: But yes, it's a gay plays. We own that play.
24:58
Speaker 3: That's you know, that's our play.
25:02
Speaker 4: I think I went to Universal Studios in high school
25:06
Speaker 4: with a drama and acting classes.
25:08
Speaker 6: We may have gone and see them.
25:10
Speaker 3: Yeah, well there's proof right there that you're straight. If
25:13
Speaker 3: you haven't seen Wicked, I mean no, no, we saw it.
25:16
Speaker 6: We saw we went and saw the play.
25:18
Speaker 3: Okay, we saw it with Idina Menzel and Kristin Chenowith.
25:24
Speaker 6: And that was famous.
25:27
Speaker 3: Well they originated the roles. That's that's who were That's
25:30
Speaker 3: who were the first people on Broadway. But they were wonderful.
25:34
Speaker 3: And yeah, we're doing this gay week and we're talking
25:36
Speaker 3: about Wicked. If you don't like it, so freaking what
25:40
Speaker 3: it beats all the because because things that gay people
25:45
Speaker 3: like when it comes to cinema, a lot of the
25:48
Speaker 3: movies that we iconify if I'm sure that's not a word,
25:53
Speaker 3: but you know what I mean, I'm doing Sarah Palin,
25:56
Speaker 3: that's a word for me exactly. You knew what it meant.
25:58
Speaker 3: And the object of languages to communicate. The movies that
26:03
Speaker 3: we emulate, that we like to put on a pedestal
26:06
Speaker 3: often have deep sociological meaning. Sometimes they don't. Yes, sometimes
26:11
Speaker 3: they're just good fun. But the Wizard of Oz, which
26:15
Speaker 3: was the source material for Wicked, has very deep sociological meaning.
26:20
Speaker 3: And Munchkins, which are politically incorrect now and so that
26:25
Speaker 3: and Wicked we glond onto I believe because of their message,
26:29
Speaker 3: and the message is don't believe the man behind the curtain,
26:33
Speaker 3: particularly if they're trying to tell you to hate others.
26:36
Speaker 3: Also in Wicked they vilify the educated, which is what
26:40
Speaker 3: Donald Trump is doing. The animals were educated, they could speak,
26:43
Speaker 3: they could talk, they were educated, but because of the
26:47
Speaker 3: Wizard punishing them, they stopped talking and they went underground
26:50
Speaker 3: and they left Oz because they were frowned upon for
26:54
Speaker 3: their education. Does any of this sound familiar? So there's
26:59
Speaker 3: a lot of the themes in that. I mean all
27:02
Speaker 3: of our movies that the young gays don't remember, like
27:04
Speaker 3: Whatever Happened to Baby Jane or All About Eve, But
27:07
Speaker 3: those movies have a lot of deep meaning, you know,
27:10
Speaker 3: embedded in them, particularly for gay culture. They speak to
27:13
Speaker 3: the marginalized.
27:16
Speaker 4: Here's a trivia question in the interview with Errol Morris
27:21
Speaker 4: that was a brief with mister Donald Trump. What was
27:26
Speaker 4: Trump's favorite movie?
27:30
Speaker 3: Knowing Donald Trump, I'd say The Wizard of Oz.
27:34
Speaker 6: Citizen Kane.
27:35
Speaker 3: Oh well, he wanted to be the William Randolph Hirst character. Yeah.
27:41
Speaker 4: Yeah, Well, ironically he's become this may become eventually the
27:48
Speaker 4: protagonist's isolated character.
27:50
Speaker 3: What was you want a better trivia question from that movie?
27:53
Speaker 3: What was Rosebud?
27:57
Speaker 5: What is it?
27:58
Speaker 3: Now? In the movie, it's a sled, but what was it?
28:01
Speaker 3: In real life? It was the thing that infuriated William
28:07
Speaker 3: Randolph Hers so much that he blocked the movie, wouldn't
28:09
Speaker 3: let it be advertised in his newspapers, and wouldn't let
28:11
Speaker 3: it play in his theaters. Rosebud was what he called
28:16
Speaker 3: Mary and Davis, the woman he was having an affair with,
28:19
Speaker 3: That's what he named her. Clatoris and Orson Wells found
28:27
Speaker 3: out and put it in the movie, and that just
28:32
Speaker 3: infuriated her so much that he banned it from his newspapers,
28:36
Speaker 3: from his theaters. He wouldn't let it be seen. He
28:38
Speaker 3: tried to blackball or Orson Wells and anybody that was
28:42
Speaker 3: in the movie, all because Rosebud. One of the center
28:45
Speaker 3: phrases of the movie was actually his nickname for his
28:48
Speaker 3: illegitimate lovers clatoris don't try to one up a queen
28:53
Speaker 3: on movie trivia, honey, just don't even go. Just don't
28:56
Speaker 3: even try.
28:57
Speaker 6: Oh well, this is your area. Amazing. I love that. Okay,
29:02
Speaker 6: next time news.
29:03
Speaker 3: University of kanasas Breton John gender and employees over bathroom you.
29:08
Speaker 3: I don't want to go into that story. I just
29:09
Speaker 3: want to say, with your transport tip out in front
29:11
Speaker 3: of the bathroom, right, I think we are.
29:25
Speaker 2: It's broadcasting from a completely different point of view.
29:29
Speaker 7: Yours listen daily to the Corell cast on your favorite
29:33
Speaker 7: streaming service. You're listening to the Correll Cast driving you
29:45
Speaker 7: home or driving you crazy.
29:49
Speaker 2: It's broadcasting from a completely different point of view.
29:53
Speaker 7: Yours listen daily to the Corell cast on your favorite
29:57
Speaker 7: streaming service. You're listening to the Correll Cast driving you
30:09
Speaker 7: home or driving you crazy.
30:19
Speaker 3: All right, we are back on this Gay Week with
30:21
Speaker 3: Scott Jacobson, and he's gonna tell me some horrible thing
30:24
Speaker 3: from Senegal, please go ahead.
30:31
Speaker 4: Some more than one hundred people have repeatedly been detained
30:34
Speaker 4: admit enforcement of Senegal's expanded until GPT law, which increased
30:39
Speaker 4: the maxim punishment for same sex relations to ten years.
30:42
Speaker 4: Testimony describes arrests based on messages, photographs, and personal associations,
30:49
Speaker 4: alongside family violence and pressure to undergo conversion practices. So
30:55
Speaker 4: rears is like they had once more thoughts.
30:57
Speaker 3: I can't wait until the Democratic comes in the United
31:01
Speaker 3: States and tells these African nations you keep this shit up,
31:04
Speaker 3: We're cutting you off from everything, because that's what will happen.
31:07
Speaker 3: And I can't wait till that happens. Right now, it
31:11
Speaker 3: is financially beneficial for Senegal and others to continue down
31:15
Speaker 3: this anti gay And by the way, I looked this
31:18
Speaker 3: up about African culture. African culture prior to slavery and
31:24
Speaker 3: even during slavery, did not really care about LGBTQ people.
31:29
Speaker 3: In fact, some of their gods or deities were either
31:34
Speaker 3: unisex two sexes, you know, So in various different African cultures,
31:41
Speaker 3: they just didn't care about the gay. It wasn't until
31:45
Speaker 3: the introduction of the West religious values and the West
31:50
Speaker 3: money that they started to care and go to the negative.
31:56
Speaker 3: Just like Hollywood, Africa will swing to the positive when
32:00
Speaker 3: it comes to gays when it benefits them financially to
32:03
Speaker 3: do so. And it's going to take a democratic regime
32:06
Speaker 3: in the United States to say to Senegal and other nations,
32:10
Speaker 3: you can have that policy, but if you do, we're
32:12
Speaker 3: simply not going to do business with you, and they'll
32:14
Speaker 3: change their tune because they don't really mean it, because
32:17
Speaker 3: the gays are the easy scapegoats, were the easy target,
32:21
Speaker 3: but they don't have conviction behind it. They could care less.
32:25
Speaker 3: They're doing it for another purpose, either for votes in
32:29
Speaker 3: their parliament or votes from their people or whatever. So
32:32
Speaker 3: they're either doing it for votes or they're doing it
32:35
Speaker 3: for cash. But they don't really care about trans people,
32:38
Speaker 3: and they don't really care about gay people. Donald Trump
32:41
Speaker 3: really doesn't care about gay kids in foster care. He
32:45
Speaker 3: could care less about gay kids in foster care. All
32:48
Speaker 3: he cared about was there was a rule that Joe
32:50
Speaker 3: Biden made and I must repeal it. So a lot
32:53
Speaker 3: of the hatred that is heaped upon our community isn't
32:57
Speaker 3: even real hatred.
32:59
Speaker 5: You know.
32:59
Speaker 3: I always said I'll give it to the turner burners
33:02
Speaker 3: like the Jerry Folwells. At least they mean what they say.
33:06
Speaker 3: You know, they are fully committed to their hatred. They
33:09
Speaker 3: believe it. You know, what's her name, all that bitch,
33:13
Speaker 3: Erica Kirk. She doesn't really care about trans people. She
33:17
Speaker 3: looks like a drag queen, so she certainly doesn't care
33:20
Speaker 3: about drag queens. It's financially expeditious for her to care,
33:25
Speaker 3: so she does when it becomes in America and the world.
33:30
Speaker 3: I will tell you, as a sixty three year old
33:32
Speaker 3: gay man what I have observed. When it becomes detrimental
33:37
Speaker 3: to a government figure, a government or a state to
33:41
Speaker 3: be anti gay, when it cost them votes or it
33:44
Speaker 3: cost them money, they change their tune period just end
33:49
Speaker 3: of story, which means they don't really have the courage
33:52
Speaker 3: of their convictions. They're just doing it for ulterior motives.
33:56
Speaker 3: A lot of gay hatred is just for no one.
34:00
Speaker 3: It is two fucks about trans people in the world, nobody, nobody.
34:06
Speaker 3: Ten years ago, if you had have asked people, are
34:10
Speaker 3: trans issues high on your list of issues? I guarantee
34:13
Speaker 3: you less than one percent would have said yes. The
34:16
Speaker 3: other ninety nine percent said no. What do I care
34:18
Speaker 3: what a trans person does. But now, oh, it's right
34:22
Speaker 3: up there in the top ten with climate change, and
34:25
Speaker 3: well I wish climate change were in the top ten.
34:27
Speaker 3: You know, it's right up there with whatever the idiot's
34:29
Speaker 3: maga and the rest of the right wing conservatives across
34:32
Speaker 3: the globe actually care about. Africa should worry about water,
34:37
Speaker 3: They should worry about feeding their people. They should worry
34:39
Speaker 3: about the economic status of their people. I've seen Senegal
34:43
Speaker 3: not a place you want to go. They should care
34:46
Speaker 3: more about one hundred percent of their people instead of
34:50
Speaker 3: discriminating against less than ten percent of their people. But
34:53
Speaker 3: they don't, and they don't because again I believe it's
34:57
Speaker 3: financially expeditious for them, or they're gaining vote. They gaming
35:02
Speaker 3: point in government. Will continue talking about the horror on
35:05
Speaker 3: this day week I said horror. It's not horror. I'm
35:08
Speaker 3: lay pep here. But we'll continue talking about this with

35:49
Speaker 3: All right, It's this Gay Week with Scott Jacobson and
35:51
Speaker 3: Correll and then a piece of good news a judge
35:53
Speaker 3: in the United States, it's temporarily blocked sub poenis and
35:55
Speaker 3: criminal probe of transgendered care at a New York hospital
35:58
Speaker 3: sighting hip hop law us. You know, we can't figure
36:02
Speaker 3: out if Mitch McConnell is alive or fucking weekend at
36:04
Speaker 3: Bernie's because of hippolass. And yet I mean truly did
36:08
Speaker 3: they prop him up in the bed? I mean what?
36:11
Speaker 3: But yet we can find out everything about kids and
36:13
Speaker 3: transitioning into Oh and get this, Oh get this, and
36:17
Speaker 3: you can you can google this, as I say it,
36:19
Speaker 3: Google this. The head of our Department of well he
36:24
Speaker 3: wants us to call it, Department of War, Pete Hegbreath
36:28
Speaker 3: just said that they are authorizing hormone therapy, testosterone therapy
36:36
Speaker 3: for troops that don't have enough testosterone. In other words,
36:43
Speaker 3: troops that aren't manly enough. They are going to authorize
36:47
Speaker 3: testosterone replacement therapy t RP for men in the military
36:53
Speaker 3: that may need more testosterone. And these stupid fucks don't
36:58
Speaker 3: realize that by deafen, that is gender affirming care.
37:06
Speaker 4: I should this be a very interesting footnote to this. Actually,
37:11
Speaker 4: it's a mandatory annual testosterone deficiency screening program for Activity
37:15
Speaker 4: SERVE members aged thirty and older.
37:18
Speaker 3: It's man, you might not be man enough to be
37:20
Speaker 3: a soldier. A woman in Congress was speaking to Congress
37:26
Speaker 3: today and she brought this up. This is how I know.
37:29
Speaker 3: I was watching c SPAN because I have no life.
37:32
Speaker 5: And.
37:33
Speaker 3: She said to the congress people, what if we do
37:36
Speaker 3: this test in Congress? Are you man enough to be
37:39
Speaker 3: in Congress? Should you have Should you be forced to
37:43
Speaker 3: have gender affirming care? Because your testosterone is too low?
37:47
Speaker 3: Mitch McConnell's testosterone level there's probably two, you know, because
37:50
Speaker 3: you lose it as you age, you know, I mean literally,
37:53
Speaker 3: his wife has more testosterone than he does. Ah, And
37:56
Speaker 3: yet you know that's if he's living. I still don't.
37:59
Speaker 3: I'm you know, I'm still kind of a little you know.
38:05
Speaker 3: But anyway, So, yes, Pete Haggsbreath has announced that they
38:09
Speaker 3: are going to start testing the military for testosterone and
38:12
Speaker 3: if they don't have enough, they're going to give them
38:14
Speaker 3: hormone replacement. That is my definition gender affirming care period,
38:20
Speaker 3: end of story. And they don't understand that. They don't
38:23
Speaker 3: get it. This is how dumb these people are. And
38:29
Speaker 3: I can't think of one other country that tests its
38:31
Speaker 3: military for testosterone, can you? I can't think of.
38:38
Speaker 4: This is not saying that I've actually thought of looking into.
38:41
Speaker 4: It's an interesting question, but I doubt it.
38:44
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're they're believe me, there aren't any they do.
38:49
Speaker 3: They'd be afraid of the results, especially in Asian kidding, kidding, kidding,
38:55
Speaker 3: all right, go ahead before I talk about choice Vanna's underwear.
38:58
Speaker 3: Go ahead, hmmm, because that'll make international.
39:06
Speaker 6: So a federal Uh, I don't do that one.
39:11
Speaker 3: Come on, throw it at me. I'm ready.
39:15
Speaker 4: So Trinidad and Tobago's criminalization of gay sex has reached
39:19
Speaker 4: final appeal. Britain's Judicial Committee of the Privy Council heard
39:23
Speaker 4: the concluding appeal in activist Jason Jones's long running effort
39:27
Speaker 4: to invalidate Trinidad and Tobago's or Tobago's colonial air prohibition
39:32
Speaker 4: and consensual same sex intimacy. The ruling could influence constitutional
39:37
Speaker 4: litigation elsewhere in the Caribbean, particularly where discriminatory colonial laws
39:42
Speaker 4: remain protected by legal quote saving clauses, quote thoughts have.
39:48
Speaker 3: You woned appeal? Not yet? In other words, is same
39:58
Speaker 3: sex sex illegal in Trinidad, Trinidad and Tobago, because I've
40:07
Speaker 3: always said, if you do it right, it should be
40:10
Speaker 3: illegal in every country.
40:15
Speaker 4: No final decision issue yet. Yeah, We're ruling is expected
40:19
Speaker 4: within three six months.
40:20
Speaker 3: We are the only species on the planet that thinks
40:24
Speaker 3: you can make consensual intercourse between two beings legal or illegal.
40:29
Speaker 3: There was a song in the eighties people are still
40:32
Speaker 3: having sex, This age thing is not working. They have
40:35
Speaker 3: since changed that lyric, by the way, but the original
40:38
Speaker 3: lyric was people are still having sex, this age thing
40:42
Speaker 3: is not working. I think of that song often because
40:47
Speaker 3: it really is the way that it is. There's always
40:51
Speaker 3: going to be gay people. There's always going to be
40:53
Speaker 3: gay sex. Your laws aren't working, your discrimination's not working.
40:58
Speaker 3: You know, it's we're still here. We're still going to
41:02
Speaker 3: have sex, whether it's legal, illegal, if you do it right.
41:05
Speaker 3: It's illegal in twenty states. But you know, but it's
41:09
Speaker 3: never going to go away, and they've been trying. You
41:11
Speaker 3: think they'd get them, you know, in Senegal, Trinidad, you
41:16
Speaker 3: think they'd get the point. We're in the year twenty
41:19
Speaker 3: twenty six. There have been efforts since the dawn of
41:23
Speaker 3: man to stomp out homosexuality. Actually that's not true. Early
41:27
Speaker 3: man didn't care either. So for the last two thousand years,
41:32
Speaker 3: since the advent of Christianity, there has been effort after
41:36
Speaker 3: effort to stomp out the gays, and guess what hasn't worked.
41:41
Speaker 3: You would think they'd get the point that they might
41:43
Speaker 3: as well just deal with us and allow us to
41:46
Speaker 3: live freely because we're gonna be here no matter what
41:48
Speaker 3: they say and what they do or what they legislate.
41:51
Speaker 3: We're never going away. It's impossible for us to go away.
41:55
Speaker 3: We can't go away because we are natural, we are
41:58
Speaker 3: normal and right. People keep making us so we're never
42:03
Speaker 3: going to go away. And I don't understand how they
42:06
Speaker 3: don't get that. How all these Privy councils and Supreme
42:11
Speaker 3: beings in Supreme Court this and Supreme that, and the
42:14
Speaker 3: Parliament this and the Parliament that they think by their
42:17
Speaker 3: proclamation they're gonna stamp out gains. It hasn't worked yet.
42:24
Speaker 4: Well, it's to a nerve pointly made in two prior sessions.
42:28
Speaker 4: Homosexuality is ancestral. So to change that to such a
42:32
Speaker 4: degree to remove it would in some sense be changing
42:36
Speaker 4: what the nature of a human being is, right, And.
42:41
Speaker 3: They can't do that. They've tried, and they'd like to.
42:44
Speaker 3: They have searched for the biological root of being gay,
42:47
Speaker 3: so they can fix it. But they have about one
42:51
Speaker 3: and they can't stop it. And I don't understand why
42:55
Speaker 3: they keep legislating against it. It's just it's there are
42:58
Speaker 3: so many other problems on this planet that we could
43:01
Speaker 3: be taken care of, and yet every week we come
43:04
Speaker 3: out here with the litany of governing bodies. These are
43:07
Speaker 3: people who are in power. They are sitting seated presidents,
43:10
Speaker 3: vice presidents, not just in our country, but prime ministers
43:14
Speaker 3: and kings or whatever, a few queens. But and they
43:19
Speaker 3: occupy their time with something that they cannot change. Isn't
43:25
Speaker 3: there something about give me the Lord, give me the
43:28
Speaker 3: something to change the things I can, but to accept
43:30
Speaker 3: the things I cannot. They are not at that bottom line.
43:34
Speaker 3: Yet you cannot change gainness, accept it, move on. But
43:40
Speaker 3: they just they can't. They just But why this goes
43:45
Speaker 3: back to what I said, Why can't they because it
43:47
Speaker 3: either makes the money or gets them elected. That's why
43:50
Speaker 3: they can't. Because it either makes the money or it
43:53
Speaker 3: gets them elected, or both. And that's why the world cares. Otherwise,
43:58
Speaker 3: the world, Why does the world, You know, I can't
44:00
Speaker 3: even get laid. I wish they'd be more concerned about that.
44:04
Speaker 3: But you know, why does the world care what Correll
44:07
Speaker 3: does in his condo in Las Vegas with another man?
44:10
Speaker 3: It doesn't. It wouldn't be much, but you know, it doesn't.
44:15
Speaker 3: It's not until someone tells them to care that they care.
44:20
Speaker 3: MAGA didn't care about gays until they were told. MAGA
44:23
Speaker 3: didn't care about trans until they were told to care
44:27
Speaker 3: about trans. And now they got trans on the brain.
44:30
Speaker 3: In the UK, all the haters over there, they weren't,
44:35
Speaker 3: you know, didn't care until they were told by a
44:38
Speaker 3: leader to care. No one cares about gainness until they're
44:42
Speaker 3: told to care about it. Otherwise, you're too busy in
44:45
Speaker 3: life to care about it, you know, you just you
44:49
Speaker 3: got too many things to do.
44:52
Speaker 6: Work bills other activist causes.
44:55
Speaker 4: If someone is so inclined for less services work, that's
45:01
Speaker 4: that's the Rihanna version of it.
45:04
Speaker 6: You know, it's the work, work, work, Rihanna.
45:06
Speaker 4: Her name is with me, Rihanna, not Rea. So the
45:12
Speaker 4: sound age so you gonna see it. We're gonna say
45:16
Speaker 4: it like the British then going to remove the.
45:18
Speaker 3: H's work work, work, work work. Can I just tell
45:22
Speaker 3: you a story I'm obsessed with right now and I
45:24
Speaker 3: don't even know why. I'm just obsessed with it. So
45:27
Speaker 3: there's this we talked about it, Bear Tooth, this hard
45:30
Speaker 3: rock band, right and the leader came out as gay
45:36
Speaker 3: and now today he has flipped from his wife of
45:39
Speaker 3: fourteen years. He came out as gay like four weeks
45:42
Speaker 3: ago and he's just now slitting from his mind. Did
45:46
Speaker 3: she think they could make it work? Share wardrobe? I mean,
45:49
Speaker 3: what what did she think was good? Now over those
45:52
Speaker 3: fourteen years, he had to be having sex with her,
45:56
Speaker 3: didn't he? So is he by he's come out as gay?
46:02
Speaker 3: I don't think he's gay. You know why a gay
46:04
Speaker 3: man would not have sex for fourteen years for a
46:05
Speaker 3: woman that that's not That's no.
46:08
Speaker 6: It sounds pretty fie to me. Yeah, it's like, no, there,
46:12
Speaker 6: what was the joke?
46:14
Speaker 5: Not?
46:14
Speaker 3: What was the joke?
46:16
Speaker 6: Choke was sal real story?
46:18
Speaker 4: Actually someone kind of their boy talk to their about
46:22
Speaker 4: their boyfriend, and their boyfriend apparently likes ass play and
46:27
Speaker 4: then going to the girlfriend.
46:29
Speaker 6: Do you think he might be gay?
46:33
Speaker 3: Yeah?
46:35
Speaker 6: I like I like it in the rear. Does that
46:37
Speaker 6: make me gay?
46:38
Speaker 3: All these women who quote peg their man? You know
46:41
Speaker 3: what pegging is? Right? Yes, all these women that peg
46:46
Speaker 3: their man, you're fucking your husband. I hate to break
46:49
Speaker 3: it to you.
46:50
Speaker 5: But.
46:54
Speaker 6: Because that's the whole thing.
46:55
Speaker 3: I know. Let mean, let's just be real here. I
46:57
Speaker 3: have blown many a straight man in my life. I
47:00
Speaker 3: have totally have and trust me, you can't even get
47:03
Speaker 3: a finger near his other end. He's ah, you know,
47:08
Speaker 3: it's like, oh peg mey oh I see.
47:12
Speaker 6: Yes, it's the It's the thing.
47:14
Speaker 4: It's like, yes, if you have done one for a
47:16
Speaker 4: very long time, but you've struggled and come out finally,
47:21
Speaker 4: that's what you see. It feels you're more authentic self
47:23
Speaker 4: and both.
47:26
Speaker 3: The reason I've adopted the invite by Olivia Wilde as
47:29
Speaker 3: one of our own movies. Do you know what the
47:32
Speaker 3: movie is? Do you know what it's about. No, but
47:35
Speaker 3: I know, Lily Wild, it's about group sex. Oh okay, yeah,
47:40
Speaker 3: And the invite is a euphemism for their inviting them
47:44
Speaker 3: to you know, get jiggy with it.
47:48
Speaker 2: Now.
47:49
Speaker 3: This goes to how nobody cared in the seventies. You
47:52
Speaker 3: could walk into a room where everybody was fucking and
47:54
Speaker 3: you just threw the lube in the air and wherever
47:56
Speaker 3: you landed, you landed a boy, girl whatever, didn't didn't matter.
48:01
Speaker 3: They were orgies. It just happened. We know, in the
48:04
Speaker 3: times of Henry the Eighth and all of that on
48:07
Speaker 3: the royal courts that many, many many a young boy
48:10
Speaker 3: was had, you know, a way was had with And
48:14
Speaker 3: so this movie that the invite, it's now granted they
48:20
Speaker 3: really only they kind of keep the husbands out of it.
48:23
Speaker 3: There there's a lot of speculation about are the two
48:25
Speaker 3: wives gonna you know, and the husbands are all, oh,
48:28
Speaker 3: it would be hot to watch our wives, you know,
48:30
Speaker 3: But I'm like, come on, turn it around, turn it
48:31
Speaker 3: around on them, Olivia, talk about how the husbands need
48:34
Speaker 3: to do each other. Come on, come on, come on.
48:36
Speaker 3: But we've adopted the invite as our own, uh. And
48:40
Speaker 3: by the way. It is being called Summer's best film.
48:43
Speaker 3: So if you get a chance to go see it,
48:44
Speaker 3: go see it. You know, the Odyssey is coming out.
48:48
Speaker 3: Half those soldiers were gay, proudly gay, you know, but
48:53
Speaker 3: we're not supposed to talk about that. What else in
48:57
Speaker 3: other gay news, Madonna debuted at number one across the world,
49:01
Speaker 3: and we did that.
49:02
Speaker 4: She has must have one of the longest running successful
49:06
Speaker 4: musical records.
49:07
Speaker 3: Well we did this. We made her number one, and
49:12
Speaker 3: her marketing team across the world was well aware that
49:15
Speaker 3: it was the gays that we're going to do this.
49:17
Speaker 3: I mean, Grinder paid for her New York's her Times
49:20
Speaker 3: Square performance, and that wasn't cheap. And I'm glad they
49:24
Speaker 3: did it because now they're broke because Lindsay Graham has died,
49:27
Speaker 3: and of course they're stock plummeted. And you know, oh,
49:31
Speaker 3: you don't get to choke, you poor thing. Oh no,
49:35
Speaker 3: you are aware that in Washington, DC right now, there
49:38
Speaker 3: are many gay male escorts that are going to have
49:40
Speaker 3: to go on unemployment after Lindsay Graham has died. You
49:42
Speaker 3: understand that that's south that's going to be.
49:44
Speaker 6: Oh good lord, he was gay.
49:49
Speaker 3: Everybody knew Lindsey Graham was gay. Everybody. Laura Loomer said
49:54
Speaker 3: this on her show. We all knew Lindsay was gay.
49:57
Speaker 3: Lindsey Graham was gay. We have doc mented cases of
50:00
Speaker 3: him hiring transgendered or male sex workers. Many have come
50:05
Speaker 3: out with the receipts and said, oh, no, he Lindsey
50:08
Speaker 3: Graham was gay. I feel badly that he was a
50:11
Speaker 3: seventy one year old person from South Carolina who felt
50:14
Speaker 3: he could never be honest because A he was conservative
50:17
Speaker 3: and b where he came from. That that look in
50:20
Speaker 3: nineteen seventy, when Lindsay Graham was eighteen, you could not
50:24
Speaker 3: be openly gay in South Carolina. So I know why
50:28
Speaker 3: he was in the closet. He could have come out late,
50:31
Speaker 3: but I know why the cross and this takes to
50:35
Speaker 3: a lot of politicians Acroston, to our fathers because they
50:39
Speaker 3: sealed it be honest and they make MP gay legislation
50:44
Speaker 3: like hat. You know people in Senegal voting Onjday.
50:59
Speaker 2: Beiji now with show side.
51:08
Speaker 3: All right. Kara d'lvigna, another actress, since we seem to
51:11
Speaker 3: be entertainment theme this week, is the first out lesbian
51:14
Speaker 3: on the print cover of Playboy isn't that something? Okay,
51:18
Speaker 3: I wonder how they feel. I mean, you're a straight guy,
51:21
Speaker 3: you know. Playboy is supposed to be, you know, the
51:24
Speaker 3: sexy girls sort of thing. Barbara Streissen was on the
51:26
Speaker 3: cover of Playboy, by the way, really oh yeah, and
51:31
Speaker 3: there's excerpts from her. So she did an album called Superman,
51:35
Speaker 3: and on that album cover she has really short white
51:40
Speaker 3: shorts and a Superman shirt. And on the cover of
51:42
Speaker 3: Playboy she did a bunny picture of course, with the
51:45
Speaker 3: rabbit ears and everything. But then she also did it
51:47
Speaker 3: in her Superman outfit, and there was a couple that
51:50
Speaker 3: were too revealing and they pulled them. Same with Dolly Parton.
51:54
Speaker 3: Dolly did Playboy and there was a couple that they
51:57
Speaker 3: didn't print, and she gave those to her husband. But
52:00
Speaker 3: as a straight man, how do you feel that Kara Davigner,
52:06
Speaker 3: the first out lesbian, is on the cover of Playboy.
52:11
Speaker 6: No objection, congratulations.
52:14
Speaker 3: You know, I don't even all the lesbian needs is
52:17
Speaker 3: a good man. That's that's why that is.
52:20
Speaker 6: Please.
52:21
Speaker 3: I'm not saying a lot of straight guys think that
52:26
Speaker 3: all lesbian needs is a good man.
52:29
Speaker 6: In conversations, I would say it's.
52:33
Speaker 4: Come up a handful of tops times in all my conversations,
52:38
Speaker 4: and full.
52:39
Speaker 3: The tops anyway. Another breaking news, lesbians masturbate less. I'm
52:45
Speaker 3: sure that you were interested in that, but interesting. It's
52:49
Speaker 3: likely because they're more satisfied with their partners, according to
52:52
Speaker 3: a study, so they enjoy sex with their partners so
52:56
Speaker 3: much that they don't have to masturbate while they're away.
53:00
Speaker 3: Do you consider masturbation cheating?
53:03
Speaker 6: No?
53:04
Speaker 3: I used to. That's how That's how horribly possessive I
53:07
Speaker 3: used to be. One time I left for somewhere without Andrew,
53:11
Speaker 3: and we always went everywhere together, always, always, always, And
53:14
Speaker 3: I left to go somewhere and I came back home
53:17
Speaker 3: because I forgot something and he was masturbating, and I
53:21
Speaker 3: got so hurt. Oh my god, I got so hurt.
53:25
Speaker 3: I'm like, why couldn't you wait for me I was
53:26
Speaker 3: gonna be home, or why didn't we have sex before
53:28
Speaker 3: I left? Or you know, and he's I'm just me
53:31
Speaker 3: and I oh, I gave him. I feel so bad.
53:34
Speaker 3: This is one of those things in life that I
53:36
Speaker 3: feel very badly about. But when I was in my
53:39
Speaker 3: twenties and thirties, I was so insecure as me as
53:43
Speaker 3: a gay because I was fat and always called ugly,
53:46
Speaker 3: and he was gorgeous, and I always thought that he
53:49
Speaker 3: could get better, and you know all this other stuff,
53:51
Speaker 3: and then people always told us, why are you with him?
53:53
Speaker 3: You could get so much better? So I was very insecure.
53:57
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, we were told that to our face many times.
54:00
Speaker 3: People walked up in a book. At the mine Shaft
54:02
Speaker 3: in Long Beach when we were on KFI, a guy
54:04
Speaker 3: walked up to Andrew and said, you're gorgeous. Why are
54:06
Speaker 3: you with him? And pointed at me. Where we went
54:08
Speaker 3: to a clothing optional resort in Palm Springs. I left
54:11
Speaker 3: the jacuzzi to go get our beverages, and I came
54:14
Speaker 3: back and I went to get in, and this group
54:17
Speaker 3: of guys that were attracted to Andrew tried to form
54:19
Speaker 3: a wall between me and Andrew so I couldn't get
54:22
Speaker 3: to my husband. And I promptly moved them and said,
54:26
Speaker 3: he's mine, and if we do anything with any of you,
54:28
Speaker 3: it's with me and him, and not him by himself.
54:34
Speaker 3: So the gay community is vicious and mean that way.
54:37
Speaker 3: They really are. The gay men are just as horrible
54:40
Speaker 3: about looks as straight men are. They're terrible, which explains
54:44
Speaker 3: the story I wanted to lead, you know, sort of.
54:46
Speaker 3: David Archiletta from American Idol, he's having a resurgence in fame.
54:50
Speaker 3: Almost every picture he's in shirtless. Matteo Lane talented, comic, talented,
54:57
Speaker 3: talented and yes and opera singer just did a stint
55:02
Speaker 3: on Broadway and many publications linked his fame to get
55:06
Speaker 3: that role to him posting photos of himself in his underwear.
55:11
Speaker 3: And now Troy Savon is coming back with a new
55:14
Speaker 3: album and his new picture is him and a trench
55:16
Speaker 3: coat would lace panties on. It seems you can't be
55:20
Speaker 3: a gay artist and be successful unless you go shirtless.
55:26
Speaker 3: It's kind of sad. It's just sad. And why is that?
55:31
Speaker 3: It's because gay men judge other men just like straight
55:35
Speaker 3: men judge other women, meaning they can look like job
55:38
Speaker 3: of the hut, but they still want their partner to
55:40
Speaker 3: look like some supermodel. It's very sad. I'm well, do
55:47
Speaker 3: we want more views here? Maybe we'll get more views now?
55:53
Speaker 3: Oh God, do I need a d cup or what?
55:55
Speaker 3: What's going on? Lord? Oh?
56:00
Speaker 2: I just can't do it.
56:03
Speaker 3: But it appears it's a trend now that gay men
56:06
Speaker 3: on Instagram anywhere. They kind of have to be half
56:10
Speaker 3: naked now or in drag. Either in drag or half naked,
56:14
Speaker 3: or you're ignored. Look at Adam Lambert. He's got a
56:16
Speaker 3: great new record out. He you know, he's he's an
56:20
Speaker 3: incredible singer, and yet he's not getting all the attention
56:23
Speaker 3: of the others. Why because he's fully clothed. I mean
56:27
Speaker 3: he's real cloth. He looks like the tin man. He's like,
56:29
Speaker 3: got all these clothes on. But yeah, I'll put this
56:33
Speaker 3: back on. No one wants to see that. I always
56:37
Speaker 3: say that I could be a reverse stripper. I go
56:38
Speaker 3: in naked and they throw money at me to put
56:40
Speaker 3: my clothing back on. All right, do you have anything
56:44
Speaker 3: you want to close with?
56:47
Speaker 4: No, it's been a relatively very busy week at the
56:51
Speaker 4: homestead here, and so I end up being with cover
56:55
Speaker 4: as much as the news I would like to.
56:56
Speaker 6: But so far, out of many that we've done this year,
57:01
Speaker 6: it's one of the least bad.
57:04
Speaker 3: I think that's because you and I chose to concentrate
57:07
Speaker 3: on the more humorous sides of what's going on and
57:11
Speaker 3: take a look at things as they really are, Like
57:13
Speaker 3: Africa is going to be Africa until someone tells them
57:16
Speaker 3: not to. And I know that sounds stupid, but they're
57:20
Speaker 3: going to keep making these stupid laws until someone of power,
57:23
Speaker 3: the United States, Canada, the UK, whatever, EU, until they
57:27
Speaker 3: step in and say stop or we're not going to
57:29
Speaker 3: deal with you. We're not going to export to you,
57:30
Speaker 3: we're not going to import your goods. When that happens,
57:34
Speaker 3: they'll stop, you know. And how do I say this?
57:43
Speaker 3: The world would like to make gay people's experience in
57:47
Speaker 3: society terrible. It would given all the news and all
57:52
Speaker 3: the negativity. But we won't have it, and we never
57:56
Speaker 3: have and we never will because even through all the adversity,
58:01
Speaker 3: we dance and sing, albeit shirtless now, but we dance
58:05
Speaker 3: and we sing, and we create art, and we create movies,
58:08
Speaker 3: and we create literature, and we create art of all kind.
58:13
Speaker 3: And we continue to be present in their world, in
58:17
Speaker 3: their boardrooms, in their offices, in you know, everywhere they are.
58:21
Speaker 3: They can't escape us because we are everywhere, and so
58:26
Speaker 3: many of us now refuse to let them take our joy.
58:30
Speaker 3: Bet if you're an older day person, because you know
58:32
Speaker 3: they've been trying to your whole life and your distem
58:36
Speaker 3: That's why you need the movie for you, because no
58:37
Speaker 3: matter how bad these stories are, I am Corral and
58:41
Speaker 3: I'll being new on the much love on the show,
58:49
Speaker 3: my man, my listeners love you now. So these shows
58:52
Speaker 3: have some of the highest rated complete that.
59:00
Speaker 5: Will say daily they.
59:01
Speaker 3: Stay goodbyes, I'll get rid of all that hoopla. But
59:04
Speaker 3: truly the the this Gay Week's are some of the
59:07
Speaker 3: highest rated on SoundCloud, on Progressive Voices Network. Uh and
59:12
Speaker 3: every time I do them on my regular show, everyone
59:15
Speaker 3: says so great to see Scott, So glad Scott's okay.
59:18
Speaker 3: We get comments down below, you know, from people who
59:21
Speaker 3: are like, oh, you and Scott, you know you play
59:23
Speaker 3: well together, and so glad he's okay, and that sort
59:27
Speaker 3: of stuff. So you know, it's it's important to have
59:31
Speaker 3: allies that get it. And that's and that's why I
59:35
Speaker 3: do these because you know, you get it, and you
59:38
Speaker 3: also understand that as much as there's horror, that you
59:42
Speaker 3: know we're not going anywhere, and that these stories are
59:45
Speaker 3: gonna always be there and it's up to us to
59:48
Speaker 3: interpret them, but to also find something a positive way
59:52
Speaker 3: to look at them. And that's why when I hear
59:54
Speaker 3: all this Africa Africa, it's like Oh, fuck Africa. They're gonna,
59:57
Speaker 3: you know what they're gonna. They blow the way of
59:59
Speaker 3: the wind. You know, if the winds are pro gay,
1:00:01
Speaker 3: then they're pro gae. If the winds are antigay, they're
1:00:03
Speaker 3: anti gay. You know, Mandela was how do I say this?
1:00:09
Speaker 3: He had a complex relationship with the gay community. As
1:00:14
Speaker 3: much as he was about freedom and everything else, he
1:00:16
Speaker 3: struggled with accepting LGBTQ people. But he did. I'm not
1:00:21
Speaker 3: saying he didn't. I'm not saying he was a homophobe,
1:00:23
Speaker 3: but he wasn't an ally so to speak, from the
1:00:26
Speaker 3: get go. And I think that's because of where he
1:00:29
Speaker 3: was from and how he was raised and the age
1:00:32
Speaker 3: he was raised in. But certainly he evolved on it.
1:00:36
Speaker 3: Correta Scott King she at one time didn't want the
1:00:42
Speaker 3: gay rights movement equated to the black movement that was
1:00:46
Speaker 3: started by her husband, and then her children quickly schooled
1:00:49
Speaker 3: her on that and said, no, it's the same, So
1:00:54
Speaker 3: you know, it's the same fight, mom. And what she
1:00:57
Speaker 3: didn't like was people were speaking for Martin because a
1:00:59
Speaker 3: lot of gay people believe that Martin Luther King Junior
1:01:02
Speaker 3: would be a large gay ally in today's world, that
1:01:05
Speaker 3: he would advocate for gay rights. Everything I know about
1:01:10
Speaker 3: the man, I believe he would even though he was
1:01:14
Speaker 3: a preacher, I believe that he would still advocate for
1:01:18
Speaker 3: LGBTQ rights. I don't believe he would be for the
1:01:21
Speaker 3: punishment of anybody based on who they are. The wife
1:01:24
Speaker 3: didn't like people speaking for him, but I believe that.
1:01:28
Speaker 3: So we go through these cycles. We go through it's
1:01:33
Speaker 3: all bad, then it's kind of okay, then it's all good,
1:01:36
Speaker 3: then it's kind of okay, then it's all bad. We
1:01:38
Speaker 3: have really great leaders and really great allies like Obama
1:01:42
Speaker 3: and Biden, and you know, and then we get terrible
1:01:45
Speaker 3: people like Trump. We have places like Africa which are fucked,
1:01:49
Speaker 3: and then we have the EU which is not so
1:01:52
Speaker 3: As a gay person, you just sort of look at
1:01:54
Speaker 3: it all and say to yourself, it's always a juggling act,
1:01:58
Speaker 3: and it's always a balance, and sometimes it's out of
1:02:01
Speaker 3: balance too much anti gay, anti trans other times it's
1:02:05
Speaker 3: fifty to fifty, and sometimes we win more than we lose.
1:02:08
Speaker 3: But we know not to give up. And that's why
1:02:11
Speaker 3: we have to talk about these stories, because we can't
1:02:13
Speaker 3: give up. We have to keep supporting these people. Supporting
1:02:16
Speaker 3: the Rainbow Railroad, Supporting people in Africa that need our
1:02:20
Speaker 3: help to fight these laws. Supporting people in the Ukraine
1:02:24
Speaker 3: who the soldiers there who are fighting for equality after
1:02:27
Speaker 3: going off and fighting for their country, you know. So
1:02:30
Speaker 3: we have to keep fighting for these people so they
1:02:32
Speaker 3: can have better lives. And that's I think why we
1:02:35
Speaker 3: do this weekly segment is to make sure people know
1:02:38
Speaker 3: that they're still out there fighting for better lives. Because
1:02:41
Speaker 3: every negative story we do, there is always someone fighting it.
1:02:44
Speaker 3: There's always somebody that's in opposition or speaking out against
1:02:48
Speaker 3: it or trying to get it changed. And that's the
1:02:51
Speaker 3: important part of every one of the stories. In the
1:02:54
Speaker 3: Ukraine right now, there are soldiers who are rallying the
1:02:57
Speaker 3: military to give them the full benefits they deserve for
1:03:00
Speaker 3: them and their partners, because they went and fought the
1:03:03
Speaker 3: war for them, and we have to support them and
1:03:07
Speaker 3: we have to rally behind them and we have to
1:03:08
Speaker 3: say yeah, we're with you. And that's why these stories
1:03:11
Speaker 3: are important, so we can find out who needs our help.
1:03:17
Speaker 3: All right, stay safe, stay away from bombs, and we
1:03:22
Speaker 3: will talk next week. I am corel Be who you
1:03:24
Speaker 3: want to be, sound and hurt your buddy
