0:00
Speaker 1: Show time is here. No time to fear. Corall is
0:04
Speaker 1: so near because show time is here. So on with
0:08
Speaker 1: the show.
0:09
Speaker 2: Let's give it a go. Carell is the one that
0:12
Speaker 2: you need to know.
0:15
Speaker 3: Now it's show side.
0:30
Speaker 4: The Supreme Court fits on trans people this morning for
0:33
Speaker 4: no reason whatsoever. Birthright citizenship? How did it fair? And
0:38
Speaker 4: you can't afford America? And the New York Times was
0:40
Speaker 4: finally caught on. We're want to talk about all of
0:42
Speaker 4: this today on the Corral Show. No, it is the
0:50
Speaker 4: Carel Show. I am carrel self, very glad you are
0:52
Speaker 4: joining me. Uh, sorry to be a little bit late,
0:55
Speaker 4: but that's how life is all because of this really,
0:58
Speaker 4: this right here, this little mouse which decided not to work,
1:02
Speaker 4: and I fought and fought it and couldn't get into work.
1:04
Speaker 4: But that's life. So the Supreme Court this morning, in
1:08
Speaker 4: its infinite wisdom, which it has none, where there should
1:11
Speaker 4: be turn limits, there should be people that are impeached.
1:13
Speaker 4: And of course the I want to call him a
1:16
Speaker 4: race trader, but he is Clarence Thomas doing his usual
1:22
Speaker 4: race trading, trading or whatever you call it, turning against
1:25
Speaker 4: his own people this morning. And I have to tell
1:31
Speaker 4: you as we start the show. I'd like to be
1:33
Speaker 4: jovial and happy and you know all of that, but
1:38
Speaker 4: I am more than a little pissed off this morning, actually,
1:44
Speaker 4: And I try to keep it light and try to
1:45
Speaker 4: keep it you know, and not do a rant every
1:47
Speaker 4: single day. But the ruling about trans people, How is
1:54
Speaker 4: it that for two thousand and twenty six years we've
1:58
Speaker 4: had no problem with trans people where they pee, where
2:01
Speaker 4: they pooh, what sports they play? None, zero, no problem,
2:07
Speaker 4: no hoopla, no ruckus. Now under Donald Trump, suddenly it's
2:13
Speaker 4: more important than climate change. It's more important than housing,
2:17
Speaker 4: than affordability, It's more important than almost anything on their
2:22
Speaker 4: political agenda, to pick on one tenth of one percent
2:28
Speaker 4: of the population, to single them out, to make them
2:33
Speaker 4: feel badly, all because some male to female transgendered individuals
2:39
Speaker 4: want to play sports. If you don't like that, then
2:42
Speaker 4: you shouldn't compete. If you are a woman and you
2:47
Speaker 4: don't like that trans women can compete in your sport,
2:50
Speaker 4: then drop the fuck out. It's not your god given
2:55
Speaker 4: right to compete in sports. Dear God, what have we become?
3:05
Speaker 4: What have we become? A laughingstock? That's what we've become.
3:13
Speaker 4: If you're a woman, and you don't like that male
3:16
Speaker 4: to female dancers compete in your dance competition, then drop
3:20
Speaker 4: the fuck out. In Florida, they are literally suing. They
3:26
Speaker 4: are suing a dance competition because a male to female
3:30
Speaker 4: transgendered person was allowed to compete in the competition in
3:34
Speaker 4: the female category. Someone, some lawyer somewhere has so much
3:39
Speaker 4: time on their hands, leave trans people alone. They don't
3:46
Speaker 4: harm you in any way, shape or form, and ninety
3:50
Speaker 4: nine point nine percent of you are not dancing or
3:52
Speaker 4: competing against them. Leave them alone. No, Nope. The highest
4:01
Speaker 4: legislative body in the land had to weigh in today
4:07
Speaker 4: on whether female to male transgendered or male to female
4:11
Speaker 4: transgendered should be able to compete in sports. That's disgusting.
4:18
Speaker 4: It's just disgusting, you know, it's disgusting. And meanwhile, while
4:27
Speaker 4: that one gets all the headlines, the even bigger egregious things,
4:31
Speaker 4: the Supreme Court today said fuck you, and I let's
4:35
Speaker 4: let billionaires and corporations elect our officials because they removed
4:39
Speaker 4: campaign finance restrictions. JD vanced brought it all the way
4:45
Speaker 4: to the Supreme Court. Now the party itself, the DNC
4:52
Speaker 4: or the RNC can spend as much as they want to,
4:56
Speaker 4: and candidates can spend as much as they want to,
5:01
Speaker 4: which just means the candidate with the most money now wins.
5:06
Speaker 4: That's not a fair system. That's not what the founders
5:09
Speaker 4: had intended. God, these magam fucking morons, they're so quick.
5:15
Speaker 4: Oh the founders were Christians. No they weren't. Oh the
5:19
Speaker 4: founder they think they know about the Founders. And then
5:22
Speaker 4: a ruling like today comes along that the Founders would
5:25
Speaker 4: denounce and decry, and they're fine with it. They're good
5:30
Speaker 4: with it. Do you know what the founders would have
5:34
Speaker 4: thought of our obsession with transgendered people in politics and
5:39
Speaker 4: in law. They would have been appalled that we would
5:43
Speaker 4: even legislate such a government was never meant for that.
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 in the blog, including
5:56
Speaker 5: recipes at really correll dot com.
5:59
Speaker 6: That's real k R e l dot com.
6:03
Speaker 7: Show Time is here. No time to fear.
6:07
Speaker 1: Correll is so near because show time is here.
6:10
Speaker 7: So on with the show. Let's give it a go.
6:14
Speaker 2: Correll is the one that you need to know.
6:19
Speaker 4: You know, I probably shouldn't do shows when I'm angry.
6:22
Speaker 4: I really shouldn't. They're not good, and I'm angry today.
6:26
Speaker 4: I'm mad at so many things today. I can't even
6:28
Speaker 4: I don't even know what to do. I mean, I'm
6:31
Speaker 4: mad just from a personal standpoint about a lot of
6:34
Speaker 4: things going on in my personal life. And I am
6:37
Speaker 4: mad at the country. I'm mad at MAGA. Yes by
6:41
Speaker 4: the way, I set up Make Merchandise Great Again yesterday
6:46
Speaker 4: and I even put two T shirts up there, and
6:48
Speaker 4: I started a truth Social account. Oh my god, oh
6:51
Speaker 4: my god, what a buggy piece of shit platform that is.
6:56
Speaker 4: Oh my god. It crashes half the time, you can't
6:59
Speaker 4: upload photos half the time. It is a piece of
7:03
Speaker 4: shit software program True Social, It is the worst. And
7:08
Speaker 4: just just creating an account and posting stuff on there
7:13
Speaker 4: and reading what I was reading, I've never wanted a
7:17
Speaker 4: group of people to be wiped off the planet more
7:19
Speaker 4: and I shouldn't feel that way. But what a plague
7:23
Speaker 4: and cancer they are. And they're so stupid. They're so stupid,
7:31
Speaker 4: I can't They're just so irredeemably stupid that it just
7:38
Speaker 4: angers me that they even have a voice because they're
7:42
Speaker 4: so stupid. They'll applaud today's decisions. None of today's decisions
7:50
Speaker 4: were good. And you'll say, well, the birthright citizenship decision
7:53
Speaker 4: was good. The Supreme Court had no business with that
7:56
Speaker 4: on their docket. They should have refused the case. That
7:59
Speaker 4: is in the constitution. If you want to change that
8:02
Speaker 4: motherfucking law, you've got to convene Congress, do a constitutional convention.
8:06
Speaker 4: You've got to change the constitution. You can't have some
8:09
Speaker 4: out of control, orange demented dictator with a pen think
8:13
Speaker 4: he can just controvert the Constitution, the thing he was
8:16
Speaker 4: sworn to protect and serve. So they should have never
8:20
Speaker 4: even ruled on birthright citizenship. It's in the mother fucking constitution.
8:29
Speaker 4: You want it changed, change that. So I'm mad at that,
8:36
Speaker 4: you know, I'm mad at that we are giving you know,
8:44
Speaker 4: my mind, there's so much racing in my mind right now,
8:47
Speaker 4: so much, you know, from little problems like my HLA.
8:52
Speaker 4: My property is going to shit. There's a car port
8:55
Speaker 4: that fell down in the wind. Another one. It took
8:58
Speaker 4: them eight weeks to fix the last one. Now there's
9:01
Speaker 4: another one. The waterfall at the front pool is not
9:05
Speaker 4: working for eight weeks. Now, eight weeks they've had to
9:08
Speaker 4: fix it. Not working sprinklers all around the property. The
9:13
Speaker 4: hoses are coming out of the ground. The sprinklers are broken,
9:16
Speaker 4: not fixing them, pine needles everywhere. Don't have a daily
9:20
Speaker 4: gardener anymore. They are fucking with my investment, my money,
9:27
Speaker 4: all I have in the world. Last night, I had
9:31
Speaker 4: a nightmare, and this goes into the New York Times
9:33
Speaker 4: story that I wanted to talk about today. Last night
9:37
Speaker 4: I had a nightmare that Social Security stopped and that
9:40
Speaker 4: sag Aftra didn't have the money to pay pensions because
9:44
Speaker 4: AI replaced so many actors and craftsmens that no one
9:47
Speaker 4: paid into sag Afterra and there wasn't enough money to
9:50
Speaker 4: fund the pension. And I was left with nothing, no income,
9:54
Speaker 4: no Social Security and no sag after pension. That is
9:58
Speaker 4: not a far fetch, which means that all I have
10:03
Speaker 4: left in the world is this house. And if the
10:06
Speaker 4: HOA makes it so, we can't get funding. And that's
10:09
Speaker 4: what this is about. August third, Donald Trump certainly couldn't
10:12
Speaker 4: sign the housing bill that he had in front of him,
10:14
Speaker 4: could he. But they allowed another law to go through
10:18
Speaker 4: that says, if your HOA doesn't have fifteen percent reserves,
10:22
Speaker 4: if it's got too much pending maintenance. Hello, or if
10:27
Speaker 4: there's too many lawsuits, you can't get Fanny may or
10:30
Speaker 4: Freddie mac funding, which means the only way you could
10:33
Speaker 4: sell your house or your condo is to a private
10:36
Speaker 4: investor with cash who is not going to pay full
10:40
Speaker 4: price for it. It is a grab to let the
10:44
Speaker 4: wealthy investors buy up condos, and it's happening across the land.
10:52
Speaker 4: Up to fifty percent of condos will not meet the
10:55
Speaker 4: new rules. Someone will buy them. Yeah, rich fucks investment
11:01
Speaker 4: firms and they'll buy him for pennies on the dollar,
11:03
Speaker 4: and then my investment is shot out the window. Steve
11:09
Speaker 4: got mad because he said, well, you shouldn't be so
11:11
Speaker 4: upset about that, And I said, you don't have two
11:14
Speaker 4: hundred thousand dollars invested in something you don't understand. And oh,
11:17
Speaker 4: he got so mad about me for that. And I
11:19
Speaker 4: didn't mean it as an insult. I just meant, this
11:21
Speaker 4: is my life savings they are messing with and yours. Meanwhile,
11:29
Speaker 4: he called the housing bill a big yawn. Oh I
11:31
Speaker 4: don't need to sign it. It's a big yawn. God,
11:34
Speaker 4: I have never wanted a president to drop dead more
11:37
Speaker 4: than him ever. Ever. Why couldn't he have been sitting
11:40
Speaker 4: next to Charlie Kirk. I mean, truly, I have never
11:44
Speaker 4: wanted a president to drop dead more in my life.
11:49
Speaker 4: And I hated Bush and I hated Reagan, but I
11:51
Speaker 4: didn't want them to keel over. I want him to
11:54
Speaker 4: clutch his chest and drop, but only the good guy.
12:02
Speaker 4: And see, I shouldn't do shows that I'm angry because
12:04
Speaker 4: I say stuff like that. And I shouldn't say stuff
12:07
Speaker 4: like that in today's world. Plus, I shouldn't feel that way.
12:11
Speaker 4: I should not feel like I really want someone to
12:14
Speaker 4: die of a stroke or a heart attack. I shouldn't
12:16
Speaker 4: no matter who they are or how despicable they are,
12:19
Speaker 4: I just shouldn't feel that I want them to drop dead.
12:22
Speaker 4: And yet millions of Americans keep waiting to wake up
12:26
Speaker 4: and see that he's gone millions. I am not alone
12:29
Speaker 4: in that thought. I see it online all the time,
12:32
Speaker 4: people commenting, God, I wake up every day hoping, you know,
12:35
Speaker 4: every And I'm not alone? And when are we going
12:41
Speaker 4: to stop phrasing?
12:42
Speaker 8: This?
12:43
Speaker 4: Supreme Court hands Trump a victory. Supreme Court deals blow
12:48
Speaker 4: to Donald Trump. When did Donald Trump become the only
12:51
Speaker 4: American that counts? When did that happen because the Supreme
12:57
Speaker 4: Court is supposed to be there to protect us, we
13:02
Speaker 4: the people. Donald Trump does not pay their salaries. We do.
13:08
Speaker 4: And everything that lands before them directly affects we the people.
13:14
Speaker 4: It has no fucking bearing on Donald Trump. And yet
13:19
Speaker 4: it's always phrased that way. Donald Trump scores victory, Donald
13:23
Speaker 4: Trump scores loss. No American people score victory or American
13:28
Speaker 4: people lose. And today Americans, actual Americans, who have done
13:36
Speaker 4: nothing to their government at all. They have put legalized
13:41
Speaker 4: discrimination into the law against Americans just because they're different,
13:49
Speaker 4: just because they have a medical condition that made them
13:54
Speaker 4: be born in the wrong body. And when they correct
13:58
Speaker 4: that medical condition, that gender dysmorphia, they then are faced
14:03
Speaker 4: with hatred and discrimination codified into law. What a fucking disgrace.
14:10
Speaker 4: That is just a disgrace. So you know, there we
14:21
Speaker 4: have it. Trump is the only one that matters. He wins,
14:24
Speaker 4: he loses. Not about us anymore. It's about them, the
14:29
Speaker 4: power players. Do they win. Congress wins this, Mike Johnson
14:33
Speaker 4: wins that where are we in all of this? Lost?
14:38
Speaker 4: Irredeemably lost. You know, yesterday I saw a news story
14:43
Speaker 4: that South Korea wants to lead the way an AI investment,
14:49
Speaker 4: and they're going to invest eight hundred and fifty six
14:52
Speaker 4: billion dollars, nearly a trillion dollars in building chips for
14:57
Speaker 4: AI chips, And I I thought to myself, do you
15:01
Speaker 4: hear yourself? You're going to spend almost a trillion dollars
15:05
Speaker 4: on artificial intelligence, artificial not living intelligence. But how much
15:16
Speaker 4: money are you investing in your people? I'm scared to
15:20
Speaker 4: death that social security is going to go away and
15:22
Speaker 4: I will be left old and penniless, as are millions.
15:26
Speaker 4: Who's investing in social security? Who's investing in a decent
15:32
Speaker 4: retirement for our old people? For government programs to help
15:37
Speaker 4: people that don't have huge retirement funds retire with some
15:42
Speaker 4: sort of grace and dignity we could afford it. Who's investing?
15:48
Speaker 4: South Korea is investing more in AI than they are
15:51
Speaker 4: in their people, and so is the United States. In
15:54
Speaker 4: the West. We have a fucking water shortage in the West,
15:57
Speaker 4: and where are they building data centers Colorado, Nevada, California,
16:01
Speaker 4: places with no fucking water. They're investing more into AI
16:08
Speaker 4: than they are into humans. Humans are only now here
16:14
Speaker 4: to serve the AI, and they want to say, we
16:17
Speaker 4: shouldn't worry about it taking our jobs. It's taking our life.
16:22
Speaker 4: It's taking our water, that is our life's blood. Fuck
16:26
Speaker 4: your job, it's taking your water. We are all going
16:33
Speaker 4: to be slaves, creating chips for the big ai and
16:37
Speaker 4: who owns them billionaires, and we don't even see it.
16:45
Speaker 4: Now I understand in all these future movies, why they have,
16:48
Speaker 4: you know, rogue rebels that go around blowing up data
16:51
Speaker 4: centers and such. I see why now in all these movies.
16:54
Speaker 4: I used to think, why are they so afraid of
16:56
Speaker 4: damn technology? Why would they want to go blow up
16:58
Speaker 4: data centers? Why are that? You know? I'll see these
17:01
Speaker 4: movies and I used to think, oh please, And now
17:05
Speaker 4: I totally get it. Humanity is literally creating the tools
17:11
Speaker 4: to wipe half of us out or more. Half of
17:16
Speaker 4: us will be useless, We will be redundant, We will
17:19
Speaker 4: have nothing productive to do and no salaries. What are
17:24
Speaker 4: we going to do with hundreds of millions of people
17:27
Speaker 4: that aren't making any money? Let them die? Yes, that's
17:31
Speaker 4: what billionaires want. Billionaires want their nine hundred people, the
17:37
Speaker 4: nine hundred billionaires or even millionaires so they want. However
17:43
Speaker 4: many millionaires there are in the world. I would imagine
17:47
Speaker 4: there's twenty thirty forty million of them. We could ask
17:50
Speaker 4: Alexa how many millionaires are in the world. Twenty five million,
18:02
Speaker 4: So twenty five million millionaires worldwide. That's it. That's it.
18:06
Speaker 4: And yet everything now is geared to them. You cannot
18:09
Speaker 4: buy a property unless you're a millionaire in San Francisco.
18:12
Speaker 4: So San Francisco's properties are for the twenty five million
18:16
Speaker 4: people that can afford it. And those twenty five million people,
18:20
Speaker 4: the millionaires and billionaires, they want the rest of us gone.
18:24
Speaker 4: We're a drain on their money. They want just enough
18:28
Speaker 4: of us left to serve them, and then that's it.
18:31
Speaker 4: They don't need anybody else. The twenty five million millionaires
18:36
Speaker 4: just need enough people to make them comfortable. That's it.
18:41
Speaker 4: That's all they need. They have enough money. They don't
18:44
Speaker 4: ever have to make another dollar, so they don't need
18:46
Speaker 4: us to buy more of their products. Elon Musk could
18:50
Speaker 4: stop selling everything to just He could just stop everything
18:54
Speaker 4: today and have enough money to live for ten thousand years.
18:58
Speaker 4: They don't need us, so they're making us obsolete. They're
19:01
Speaker 4: starving us. They're letting us die if we're old. They're
19:05
Speaker 4: letting our planet be destroyed because they're enclaves won't be destroyed.
19:11
Speaker 4: It's happening right in front of us, and nobody cares.
19:18
Speaker 4: No one cares, And if you do care, there's nothing
19:22
Speaker 4: you can do. You know, this morning, I told a friend,
19:26
Speaker 4: I used to wonder why people moved out into some
19:29
Speaker 4: rural area, started a little farm and just lived off
19:32
Speaker 4: the grid. I used to think they were insane. Now
19:38
Speaker 4: I don't think they're insane. We are literally headed to
19:44
Speaker 4: a complete global realignment, and you and I are not
19:49
Speaker 4: in the picture. We're not one of the twenty five
19:53
Speaker 4: million millionaires. That's it. That's we're not in the picture.
20:00
Speaker 4: And today the Supreme Court proved that they proved it.
20:06
Speaker 4: Let the wealthy determine elections, release any kind of restrictions
20:11
Speaker 4: on campaign finance. We should be going the other way.
20:15
Speaker 4: We should be removing all corporate money from campaigns and
20:20
Speaker 4: make all campaigns publicly funded, period, No outside money in politics.
20:28
Speaker 4: That's just that's how we should be. Instead, we just
20:32
Speaker 4: went the exact opposite. Let all the outside money in
20:36
Speaker 4: politics flow in and let them spend as much as
20:39
Speaker 4: they want to win their elections. Wow, just wow, Yeah,
20:49
Speaker 4: open the bay door. Hell open and people all you
20:57
Speaker 4: know that this too shall pass? Will it?
21:02
Speaker 7: Will it?
21:04
Speaker 4: I'm gonna tell you why that's an untrue statement. Always
21:08
Speaker 4: go back already, do what's going on?
21:18
Speaker 8: Oh now it's show side.
21:40
Speaker 4: Wow. In Seam Valley, a tesla went out of control
21:45
Speaker 4: and killed a woman sitting on a patio having a
21:47
Speaker 4: coffee at the Urbane Cafe. Isn't that something? My friend
21:52
Speaker 4: Steve just sent it to me and said, this is
21:54
Speaker 4: why when you want to go somewhere and sit outside,
21:56
Speaker 4: I never want to sit outside because you could be
21:59
Speaker 4: strung by a rogue tesla. Yeah, that's the truth. So
22:03
Speaker 4: let me tell you why someone just said and this
22:06
Speaker 4: too shall pass. Let me tell you why that's not true. Okay,
22:11
Speaker 4: did the Confederacy pass eighteen sixty one, almost two hundred
22:18
Speaker 4: years ago? All right, it's basically one hundred and seventy
22:22
Speaker 4: years ago, the Civil War? Did it end? Did it pass?
22:28
Speaker 5: No?
22:30
Speaker 4: The Confederacy is maga, period and a story. The Confederacy
22:37
Speaker 4: is maga. That's what they are. That's where that movement
22:40
Speaker 4: came from. That's their Red States, just like the Confederacy
22:44
Speaker 4: was Red states. They believe exactly what the Confederacy believed
22:48
Speaker 4: they have the same morals or lack of morals and
22:51
Speaker 4: values than the Confederacy. They're white supremacist, religious zealots, racist homophobes.
22:58
Speaker 4: It's what maga is the Confederacy. It didn't pass. When
23:03
Speaker 4: is that going to pass? When is the South going
23:06
Speaker 4: to finally want to unify with the North and start
23:09
Speaker 4: accomplishing things like solving climate change, getting high speed rail
23:12
Speaker 4: throughout the country. When is that going to happen? It's not.
23:20
Speaker 4: In Europe, did the Nazi movement pass? No, they still
23:25
Speaker 4: have it. It's still there and that their extreme right
23:29
Speaker 4: raises its head all the time in the UK, in
23:33
Speaker 4: Germany and France, Nazis just morphed into something else. They
23:38
Speaker 4: didn't change, they didn't pass, they didn't go away. In
23:42
Speaker 4: the United States, I am sixty three mother fucking years
23:45
Speaker 4: old and look fabulous. But phobia pass. Homophobia has been
23:52
Speaker 4: around sent the church. That's what started it. By the way,
23:54
Speaker 4: there were no homophobes before organized religion. No one even cared, okay,
24:01
Speaker 4: But then organized religion happened. Suddenly the patriarchy cared. Has
24:06
Speaker 4: it passed? How many generations of gay people have been
24:10
Speaker 4: told and this shall pass? And then today. In twenty
24:16
Speaker 4: twenty six, the Supreme Court outlaws trans people from sports.
24:21
Speaker 4: So you explained to me when exactly the homophobia is
24:25
Speaker 4: going to pass, When the transphobia is going to pass?
24:31
Speaker 4: Explain it to me. I'd love to see your comments
24:34
Speaker 4: down below. When is far right extremism based in white
24:39
Speaker 4: supremacy and a warped sense of religion going to pass?
24:43
Speaker 4: When is that going to be over? Because it hasn't
24:48
Speaker 4: been since Oh, I don't know Roman times, you know,
24:56
Speaker 4: So when when is it going to pass? They wonder
25:04
Speaker 4: why the birth rates are down. It's because parents know
25:08
Speaker 4: that this is no world anymore to bring a child into,
25:13
Speaker 4: and it isn't. I wouldn't have a child. I think
25:18
Speaker 4: humans should die out. I know you're like, well, I
25:20
Speaker 4: really believe as a species we should die out because
25:24
Speaker 4: we're getting it all wrong, and we're bringing that about.
25:27
Speaker 4: By the way, we don't have to stop having children.
25:31
Speaker 4: We're dying out. We're not concentrating on food security, water security,
25:36
Speaker 4: climate security, financial security, taking care of our elderly, taking
25:41
Speaker 4: care of our young. We are not focusing on ourselves.
25:44
Speaker 4: We are not investing in ourselves. What are we investing in?
25:50
Speaker 4: Artificial intelligence? Why aren't we investing on making humans more intelligent?
25:58
Speaker 4: On human intelligence? Why aren't we better funding schools. Why
26:04
Speaker 4: aren't we re educating adults like Maga to actually show
26:08
Speaker 4: them how very wrong they are. Why aren't we investing
26:13
Speaker 4: in human intelligence? We're not. We're investing in artificial intelligence.
26:21
Speaker 4: What's the number one source of research? Artificial humans? Robots?
26:27
Speaker 4: We're not investing in humanity. We're not investing in each other.
26:33
Speaker 4: We're not investing in eighty year olds, seventy year olds,
26:37
Speaker 4: ninety year olds and giving them a good life for
26:40
Speaker 4: the rest of their life because they fucking earned it. Nope,
26:47
Speaker 4: we're not investing in peace. We are investing in war.
26:51
Speaker 4: They are at war in the Ukraine. There is still
26:54
Speaker 4: a war in Iran. Iran is the negotiators are not
26:56
Speaker 4: at the table today. They're over there. Jared Kushner's over there,
26:59
Speaker 4: and Delhar sitting at a table with his stumb up
27:01
Speaker 4: his ass and he likes it too. You know, there's
27:05
Speaker 4: no Iranian representative at these talks. We're still at war
27:10
Speaker 4: with Iran because we lost the war with Iran. They won.
27:18
Speaker 4: They get determined when it's over, not us. They're the winners.
27:23
Speaker 4: We're not investing in peace, we're not investing in humanity.
27:28
Speaker 4: We're not investing in the environment, we're not investing in education,
27:33
Speaker 4: we're not taking pride in human intelligence. We're giving all
27:37
Speaker 4: of our functions over to devices and phones and everything else.
27:43
Speaker 4: You know what, I am a human Google, I'm smart.
27:46
Speaker 4: I am smarter than most humans, and we're not investing
27:50
Speaker 4: in making more of me. In fact, we're doing just
27:54
Speaker 4: the opposite. We're investing in dumbing people down, in creating
27:58
Speaker 4: an artificial intelligence because humans no longer have intelligence. Did
28:04
Speaker 4: you ever wonder why we're so obsessed with creating something
28:07
Speaker 4: smarter than us, because we know how stupid we've become.
28:13
Speaker 4: And so today all I see is strife ahead. If
28:19
Speaker 4: you're not a millionaire, if you're not one of the
28:22
Speaker 4: twenty five million millionaires in the world, the road ahead
28:27
Speaker 4: is going to be help yours, mine all of ours food.
28:33
Speaker 4: So the story I wanted to talk to you about
28:34
Speaker 4: today comes out of the La Times, and it's about
28:38
Speaker 4: food and about how and you know, just general expenses
28:42
Speaker 4: and how The New York Times did a did their
28:47
Speaker 4: own research about the math of America, because you know,
28:49
Speaker 4: I always talk about the math of America and how
28:52
Speaker 4: it's not mathing, and you think it's mathing for the
28:57
Speaker 4: people who are wealthier than you, it's not. I'm gonna
29:01
Speaker 4: come back. I'm gonna share that story from the New
29:03
Speaker 4: York Times and how people making one hundred and fifty
29:07
Speaker 4: thousand dollars a year are still not making one hundred
29:13
Speaker 4: and fifty pay years and they still are Wow.
29:25
Speaker 6: It's broadcasting from a completely different point of view.
29:29
Speaker 9: Yours listen daily to the corell cast on your favorite
29:33
Speaker 9: streaming service. You're listening to the corell cast driving you
29:45
Speaker 9: home or driving you crazy.
29:49
Speaker 6: It's broadcasting from a completely different point of view.
29:53
Speaker 9: Yours listen daily to the corell cast on your favorite
29:57
Speaker 9: streaming service. You're listening to the corelle cast driving you
30:09
Speaker 9: home or driving you crazy.
30:19
Speaker 4: All right, so we're going to share this New York
30:21
Speaker 4: Times story. Don't forget. If you have a family member
30:23
Speaker 4: that's maga, go buy them a T shirt at Make
30:26
Speaker 4: Merchandise Great Again dot com. Every T shirt sold goes
30:31
Speaker 4: to help fund a liberal leaving the United States. That
30:33
Speaker 4: liberal is me. I said that in the park today
30:36
Speaker 4: to friends that are maga. They went and bought T shirts.
30:38
Speaker 4: I'm not making that up. I said, I started a website,
30:41
Speaker 4: Make Merchants, Make Merchandise Great Again. Oh great name, I said, yeah,
30:46
Speaker 4: for every T shirt I sell, it helps fund a
30:48
Speaker 4: liberal leaving America. Oh I'm all for that. I said,
30:51
Speaker 4: we'll go buy a T shirt. So they did right
30:53
Speaker 4: there on their phone. When I had to create the
30:55
Speaker 4: graphics yesterday, I literally almost threw up in my mouth.
30:59
Speaker 4: I did one of Donald Trump holding the world on
31:01
Speaker 4: his shoulders with a cape that's an American flag and
31:04
Speaker 4: it says He's got this. And then the T shirt
31:08
Speaker 4: that I made that really made me puke. I had
31:10
Speaker 4: the founding fathers handing Donald Trump the Declaration of Independence
31:15
Speaker 4: and it says America two fifty democracy or democracy in
31:21
Speaker 4: great hands. Oh my god. I wanted to throw up.
31:26
Speaker 4: But that's a T shirt up there as well. So
31:29
Speaker 4: go get your MAGA T shirts for your MAGA friends
31:31
Speaker 4: at Make America or Make Merchandise Great Again dot com
31:37
Speaker 4: because every dollar sold helps a liberal leave America, and
31:42
Speaker 4: that liberal is me, all right. So the New York Times,
31:46
Speaker 4: which is finally catching on by the way, they have
31:50
Speaker 4: traced the anti trans rhetoric in this country directly to
31:55
Speaker 4: the New York Times. The New York Times has been
31:58
Speaker 4: the champion of antiq trans rhetoric. They have been such
32:02
Speaker 4: an amplifier. Fuck the New York Times, but here's an
32:08
Speaker 4: article out from them. From a distance, the American economy
32:11
Speaker 4: might appear to be performing well. From a distance, growth
32:15
Speaker 4: is solid, unemployment remains that low. Stock markets have posted
32:19
Speaker 4: large gains. But these numbers master the reality that most
32:23
Speaker 4: Americans see know shit. We dug into the data, conducted surveys,
32:28
Speaker 4: and talk to people around the country. Our research shows
32:32
Speaker 4: that even relatively well off families are struggling despite the
32:36
Speaker 4: tax cuts and wage gains that the Trump administration touts.
32:40
Speaker 4: President Trump and Congress are neither investing in long term
32:43
Speaker 4: solutions or offering short term relief. If they paid attention
32:47
Speaker 4: to different indicators of Americans' financial health, beyond top line
32:50
Speaker 4: growth and other traditional measures of economic success, they might
32:54
Speaker 4: feel more urgency. So we developed one a model budget
32:58
Speaker 4: for a family of two parents and two children. We
33:02
Speaker 4: set their annual income at one hundred and thirty thousand dollars,
33:06
Speaker 4: well above the eighty three thousand national median for all
33:09
Speaker 4: US households. That's it, eighty three thousand a year. That's
33:15
Speaker 4: the median income that's sixty five hundred a month before taxes,
33:21
Speaker 4: So that's really about forty five hundred dollars a month
33:25
Speaker 4: with rents that are in upwards of twenty five hundred anyway, um,
33:33
Speaker 4: well above the eighty three five national median for all
33:35
Speaker 4: US households and right in the middle of the income
33:38
Speaker 4: distribution for a family of four. According to our calculations,
33:43
Speaker 4: the math has stopped adding up. The math of America
33:46
Speaker 4: doesn't add up that I've been saying that for decades
33:48
Speaker 4: on my show. For over the past eighteen months Trump's regime,
33:54
Speaker 4: they had a small cushion in twenty twenty four. Now
33:56
Speaker 4: they are in the red. After covering just the basics
33:59
Speaker 4: such as houses, health care plan, and daycare, the family
34:03
Speaker 4: has over one thousand dollars less than it did a
34:06
Speaker 4: year ago. Rising costs have wiped out any gains from
34:10
Speaker 4: higher wages or tax cuts. The family would have trouble
34:14
Speaker 4: paying for anything beyond the basics a car breaking down,
34:18
Speaker 4: a kid breaking an arm. It could not budget for
34:21
Speaker 4: any of these things that typically a family might hope
34:24
Speaker 4: for buying a new car, taking a summer vacation, or
34:28
Speaker 4: even welcoming another child. To mount an effective response, it
34:32
Speaker 4: helps to know what stresses Americans feel most sharply and
34:35
Speaker 4: what action they expect from their elected officials. So we asked.
34:40
Speaker 4: By almost four to one, Americans told us that rising prices,
34:45
Speaker 4: rather than paychecks that haven't kept up, are driving a
34:48
Speaker 4: cost of living squeeze. Two thirds say they are struggling
34:52
Speaker 4: today and need relief they can feel right away. This
34:56
Speaker 4: is two thirds of people making one hundred and thirty
34:58
Speaker 4: thousand or more. By the way, okay, the most cited
35:02
Speaker 4: concern grocery costs. Grocery costs. Some thirty five percent of
35:10
Speaker 4: Americans identified food as the single biggest sort of financial pressure. Foo.
35:18
Speaker 5: If you're not visiting really corell dot com daily, you're
35:22
Speaker 5: missing out. Get the podcast videos and the blug including
35:25
Speaker 5: recipes at reallycrrell dot com.
35:28
Speaker 7: That's really k A r e l dot com. Show
35:33
Speaker 7: Time is here. No time to fear.
35:36
Speaker 1: Corrill is so near because show time is here.
35:39
Speaker 7: So on with the show. Let's give it a go.
35:43
Speaker 2: Correll is the one that you need to know.
35:48
Speaker 4: So a majority of people making over one hundred and
35:50
Speaker 4: thirty thousand dollars say food food is their single biggest
35:56
Speaker 4: source of financial pressure, followed number two housing costs, Housing
36:01
Speaker 4: cost number one, and number two food and housing. Respondents
36:06
Speaker 4: split almost every among three worries prices that are too high,
36:10
Speaker 4: prices that change unexpectedly, and the feeling of getting less
36:14
Speaker 4: value for the money from products and services because of shrinkflation,
36:18
Speaker 4: hidden fees, and declining quality. Older Americans are most likely
36:24
Speaker 4: to focus on sticker shock. Working parents were far more
36:27
Speaker 4: likely to point to the volatility, the inability to predict
36:31
Speaker 4: what a week's groceries will cost from one month to
36:33
Speaker 4: the next because it changes constantly, and political independence were
36:37
Speaker 4: especially likely to say that they feel ripped off by
36:40
Speaker 4: the American economy are economic indicators. The Model family budget
36:46
Speaker 4: and americans reported experiences suggest that the cost of essentials
36:50
Speaker 4: has become a political and economic emergency for the nation's
36:54
Speaker 4: elected officials. Americans want them to address the root causes
36:58
Speaker 4: driving up prices and even or to deliver timely relief.
37:02
Speaker 4: Ideally do both. Research shows where they can start with
37:07
Speaker 4: the goods that Americans say they have the most trouble
37:09
Speaker 4: of fording. More than half of the people's surveyed that
37:13
Speaker 4: make one hundred and thirty thousand dollars a year or
37:15
Speaker 4: more more than half named meat as their top source
37:21
Speaker 4: of grossery stress. Well, I could care less about that
37:24
Speaker 4: six times the share who named the next most chosen
37:27
Speaker 4: source coffee, tea and other beverages and their right. Do
37:32
Speaker 4: you know how much I spend every three months on tea?
37:34
Speaker 4: You guys are gonna faint. Take a guess in the
37:37
Speaker 4: chat room. I'll tell you at the end of this story.
37:39
Speaker 4: How much do you guys think I spend with Harny
37:42
Speaker 4: and Son's tea every three months? Every three months, Harny
37:47
Speaker 4: and Son's Tea. How much do you guys think I spend?
37:49
Speaker 4: Because you know I have tea twice a day, very religiously.
37:53
Speaker 4: The price of beef helone has risen. Fine let it.
37:57
Speaker 4: That means that the family buying two pounds of ground
37:59
Speaker 4: beef a week paying ten dollars more. Who cares? Don't
38:03
Speaker 4: buy it? The reasons are complex. Drought has led to
38:07
Speaker 4: the smallest US cattle herd in decades. Bravo. The meat
38:10
Speaker 4: packing industry is so concentrated that it has squeezed ranchers
38:13
Speaker 4: and undermined incentives and to rebuild the herd, good let
38:17
Speaker 4: it collapse. Last year's tariffs made beef even more expensive, good,
38:21
Speaker 4: tax it more, and a parasite is threatening the herd
38:24
Speaker 4: across America. Fabulous, let them all pass away. Lowering beef
38:29
Speaker 4: prices and keeping them low requires rebuilding the herd, increasing
38:32
Speaker 4: competition and meat packing, and strengthening biosecurity. Government is doing
38:37
Speaker 4: nothing on any of those long term goals. I'm fine
38:40
Speaker 4: with that. By the way, let it collapse. Even if
38:43
Speaker 4: it were, it could take years for beef prices to
38:45
Speaker 4: go down, and research suggested the public is not wont
38:48
Speaker 4: to wait. Federal and state elected leaders have a few
38:51
Speaker 4: responsible ways to deliver a red immediate help on groceries.
38:56
Speaker 4: Mister Trump should repeal tariffs that serve no strategic purpose
39:00
Speaker 4: that put sales tax on groceries should remove them. The
39:03
Speaker 4: ones that tax toothpaste, toilet paper, and diapers should also stop.
39:07
Speaker 4: In some cases, companies, particularly those in highly concentrated industries,
39:11
Speaker 4: have used subtle methods to keep prices higher than the
39:14
Speaker 4: economic fundamentals demand elected because they're making billions of dollars.
39:19
Speaker 4: So elected officials at the federal estate level should curb
39:21
Speaker 4: shri inflation, pricing schemes and digital tricks that confuse and
39:25
Speaker 4: fleece the consumer. They won't because the rich control the government.
39:30
Speaker 4: They also need to require labeling that allows families to
39:33
Speaker 4: make apples to apples price comparisons, and put companies on
39:36
Speaker 4: the spot for bait and switch marketing. They will. Most
39:40
Speaker 4: of all, the country needs selected leaders to demand rigorous,
39:43
Speaker 4: reliable data on basic questions. After paying the bills, are
39:48
Speaker 4: families getting ahead or falling behind? Which cost are creating
39:53
Speaker 4: the most stressed? When families try to balance their budgets,
39:57
Speaker 4: They say at the kitchen tables? Does anybody balance their
39:59
Speaker 4: budgets the kitchen table anymore? All of you do it
40:01
Speaker 4: at the computer. All of you. Leaders would then make
40:06
Speaker 4: better decisions about what Americas would make lives easier. Now
40:10
Speaker 4: you should read the comments, Oh girl, the comments. This year,
40:16
Speaker 4: I have seen companies I've wholeheartedly supported for decades because
40:19
Speaker 4: they valued the good will of their customers just turned
40:22
Speaker 4: into things I refuse to do business with. Between Social
40:25
Speaker 4: Security and my decalled Georgia pension, I make one hundred
40:29
Speaker 4: and fifty thousand dollars a year, wow, three dependents. The
40:35
Speaker 4: county rarely and singly grants cost of living increases. I
40:39
Speaker 4: was department head. How are ordinary county retirees, faring, secretary's clerks,
40:44
Speaker 4: police and fire people. They're not They're falling into poverty
40:49
Speaker 4: and they and this person is blaming Joe Biden for
40:52
Speaker 4: it all thanks to old Joe. Oh god, oh, i'd
40:58
Speaker 4: Trump and his absurd tari. So he says that Trump
41:01
Speaker 4: and Biden were the worst presidents. Okay, yep. Nobody complains
41:09
Speaker 4: about dog food, which is fifty percent higher than when
41:11
Speaker 4: it was in the pandemic. Yep, yep. Obama fifteen percent inflation,
41:19
Speaker 4: Trump's first term seven point eight percent, Biden twenty one percent,
41:22
Speaker 4: Trump second term six percent. Everybody said under those comments
41:26
Speaker 4: that those are lies. It's that this person's a Trumper,
41:29
Speaker 4: and that those numbers are lies. So on and on
41:33
Speaker 4: and on and on they go. At the start of
41:36
Speaker 4: the year, I was paying two twenty seven for milk.
41:38
Speaker 4: Now it's three fifty two, a fifty percent increase in
41:40
Speaker 4: six months. Whatever happened to I promised to bring prices
41:44
Speaker 4: down on day one. It's delusion to believe Trump or
41:48
Speaker 4: the Republicans give a hoot about ordinary people suffering. They don't.
41:52
Speaker 4: Corporations exist to make money, and they are making it.
41:55
Speaker 4: They just don't care how yep. So let me ask.
42:01
Speaker 4: If the New York Time says that one hundred and
42:03
Speaker 4: thirty thousand dollars a year income people aren't making it,
42:07
Speaker 4: how are you, guys making it? Be honest with me,
42:12
Speaker 4: how are you making it? How are you paying your
42:16
Speaker 4: mortgage or your rent out of one third of your
42:20
Speaker 4: budget and then another one third for discustionary spending in food,
42:26
Speaker 4: and then one third for savings? How are you doing it?
42:31
Speaker 4: I'll tell you first how you're doing it. By the numbers,
42:34
Speaker 4: You're not saving. According to a recent survey, only people
42:39
Speaker 4: making two hundred thousand dollars a year or more are
42:42
Speaker 4: putting any money into savings at all. I have none.
42:46
Speaker 4: I have no savings. I have eight hundred dollars in
42:49
Speaker 4: a savings account. That's it. That's what I have. Now.
42:52
Speaker 4: David Pacman and Stephanie Miller won't tell you that because
42:55
Speaker 4: they have millions. I don't. I have eight hundred dollars.
43:01
Speaker 4: I am trapped in a condo with an hoa that
43:04
Speaker 4: I hate because I don't even have thirty thousand dollars
43:07
Speaker 4: in savings that I could take and move to another
43:09
Speaker 4: city and then sell my condo. I should have thirty
43:13
Speaker 4: thousand dollars in the bank that I could use for this.
43:16
Speaker 4: I should, but I don't. How are you making it?
43:23
Speaker 4: I'd love to hear from you in the comments, because
43:26
Speaker 4: this article says one hundred and thirty thousand, you're not
43:29
Speaker 4: making it. And if you have an emergency like my car,
43:33
Speaker 4: which they called me about and said it's going to
43:34
Speaker 4: be ready tomorrow, another eight hundred dollars that I don't have,
43:38
Speaker 4: it will go on the credit card with the same
43:40
Speaker 4: twenty three hundred from the other repair. I can't afford
43:44
Speaker 4: a car. I can't. I really can't. And that's what
43:47
Speaker 4: this article points out. Most of us can't afford anything
43:50
Speaker 4: other than food and housing. And that's it. There's no
43:53
Speaker 4: money for savings. There's no money for emergencies, there's no
43:56
Speaker 4: money for vacations. There's no money for life. There is
43:59
Speaker 4: a only money to pay your cell phone bill, to
44:03
Speaker 4: pay your housing bill, to eat, and that's it. That's it.
44:08
Speaker 4: There's no money for life, for vacations, for hobbies. Remember
44:12
Speaker 4: when you had hobbies. Remember when you could go spend
44:14
Speaker 4: one thousand dollars on your hobby. If you were a
44:17
Speaker 4: photographer or a musician or whatever, your hobby was if
44:21
Speaker 4: you liked vintage cars. How many of you have a
44:24
Speaker 4: hobby now that costs money? A lot of you might
44:28
Speaker 4: have hobbies that don't cost money. You know, you paint
44:30
Speaker 4: or something, but even that oil paints shop through the
44:33
Speaker 4: roof because they're made of oil. How many of you
44:38
Speaker 4: even have a hobby anymore? How are you making it?
44:42
Speaker 4: Are you cutting back? Are you cutting back? In the
44:47
Speaker 4: chat room, they're saying they're not making it? You know
44:52
Speaker 4: they're not making it. Meanwhile, Peter Tile is building a
44:55
Speaker 4: bunker in South America and New Zealand. You know, how
45:02
Speaker 4: are you making it? How many of you? How much
45:07
Speaker 4: do you guys think I spend on tea? How much?

Speaker 4: How much? How much do you think I spend on tea?
45:21
Speaker 4: Come on? Someone in the chat room. I'm waiting, I'm waiting,

45:38
Speaker 4: see if any of you can guess how much I
45:41
Speaker 4: spend on tea every three months. And it didn't used
45:43
Speaker 4: to be that much, but it used to be half
45:45
Speaker 4: that price. How much? How much? Everybody? Come on, let's see. No,
45:58
Speaker 4: you're all wrong. I spend two hundred and fifty dollars
46:05
Speaker 4: on six pounds of tea, six pounds of tea, six
46:11
Speaker 4: bags of one pound each loose leaf tea, six bags
46:16
Speaker 4: one pound each loose leaf tea two hundred and fifty dollars.
46:22
Speaker 4: It is about forty three dollars a pound for tea
46:26
Speaker 4: forty three dollars a pound four t forty three. You
46:36
Speaker 4: think coffee is expensive forty three dollars a pound for
46:42
Speaker 4: tea forty three dollars. And yeah, now I could do
46:50
Speaker 4: without it, but life is too short to not have tea.
46:55
Speaker 4: I could buy less, but I like to for I
46:59
Speaker 4: have English breakfast, Irish breakfast, a psalm chocolate, mint chocolate chai,
47:07
Speaker 4: and royal wedding. Oh and then decaf. I have a
47:11
Speaker 4: DCAF so seventies, so seven seventies, two hundred and fifty dollars,
47:18
Speaker 4: So it's about thirty five dollars a pound from that's
47:23
Speaker 4: from the brother Harney, Harney and Sons tea the best
47:27
Speaker 4: tea in the United States, Harney and Sons. And that's
47:34
Speaker 4: you know how much did you guess? One hundred and
47:38
Speaker 4: fifty dollars? Oh? Please? And I wish it used to
47:41
Speaker 4: be that much. I used to spend about one twenty
47:44
Speaker 4: five every three months on the same seven bags of tea.
47:49
Speaker 4: It's double. It's gone from one twenty five to two fifty.
47:53
Speaker 4: I have tea every morning at six am and every
47:55
Speaker 4: afternoon at three pm because I'm not some pagan and
47:59
Speaker 4: I oh, I have an herbal at night, but the
48:01
Speaker 4: herbal doesn't count. I buy it cheap on Amazon. It's
48:03
Speaker 4: like twelve dollars for a huge bag of camameal and
48:08

48:34
Speaker 4: hundred and fifty bucks every three months from Harni and
48:37
Speaker 4: Sun's Tea. What am I supposed to do not have tea?
48:43
Speaker 4: I figure if I'm going down in flames in the future,
48:46
Speaker 4: I might as well go there with a kappa in
48:47
Speaker 4: my hand, right, So I hear you, I hear you
48:53
Speaker 4: in the chat room. You know, I wonder if I'm
49:00
Speaker 4: I wonder if I'm not as popular as Stephanie Miller
49:03
Speaker 4: or David Packman because I actually talk about this stuff.
49:07
Speaker 4: You never hear Stephanie Miller talking about how the listeners
49:10
Speaker 4: aren't making it. They like to be humorous and fun
49:13
Speaker 4: and just complain about the politicians all the time because
49:16
Speaker 4: she's wealthy, and almost everyone around her table is wealthy,
49:19
Speaker 4: and I don't slide them for that. I'm totally jealous
49:22
Speaker 4: of that. And maybe my show would be different if
49:26
Speaker 4: I didn't have money problems. Maybe I would talk about
49:30
Speaker 4: broader issues and more political and more of this and that.
49:34
Speaker 4: If I didn't have the same money problems that you're having,
49:39
Speaker 4: I would rent a place somewhere. But if you go
49:42
Speaker 4: with one third of my income as rent, I can
49:45
Speaker 4: only afford fifteen hundred dollars a month rent, and there's
49:50
Speaker 4: no place to rent for that, not a two bedroom.
49:54
Speaker 4: And I've got to have a studio, so I can't
49:58
Speaker 4: go rent something for fifteen hundred dollars a month, a
50:01
Speaker 4: two bedroom. So maybe if I didn't have money troubles,
50:07
Speaker 4: the show would be different. I don't know. I don't know.
50:11
Speaker 4: I don't know. No, Rachel add one hundred to that. Yes,
50:18
Speaker 4: the T shirts are total Maga. I told you guys,
50:21
Speaker 4: I started a Maga merchandise website. Make merchandise great again.
50:29
Speaker 4: It's not for you enough, it's for Maga. I figured
50:33
Speaker 4: if they're gonna hate me, I might have to let
50:36
Speaker 4: them pay for me to leave the country. So the
50:39
Speaker 4: T shirt for not for us. If you want me
50:41
Speaker 4: to do T shirts for us, I will add a
50:44
Speaker 4: different website that's for Maga. So if you have Maga.
51:03
Speaker 8: Now it's shoes side.
51:12
Speaker 4: Do not sell out? What do you mean? Do not
51:15
Speaker 4: sell out? If I can make money off of making
51:20
Speaker 4: things that I hate, why not. I'm not making any
51:26
Speaker 4: money as a liberal. I'm not making any money as
51:28
Speaker 4: a progressive. So if I can create merchandise for these
51:32
Speaker 4: morons and they'll buy it, I'm sorry. Does it disgust
51:38
Speaker 4: me to have to type these things? Yes? Did I
51:41
Speaker 4: want to throw up in my mouth when I did
51:43
Speaker 4: those graphics yesterday? I sure did. But if it helps
51:47
Speaker 4: me raise the money to leave the country. Because we
51:50
Speaker 4: are in a death situation here, people, what would you
51:54
Speaker 4: do to save your life? I am trying to save
51:58
Speaker 4: my life I have got to generate more income. I
52:03
Speaker 4: have had T shirts for sale for the Correl Show
52:07
Speaker 4: for years. I haven't sold.
52:10
Speaker 8: One, not one.
52:13
Speaker 4: I've already sold four Maga shirts the last five years.
52:17
Speaker 4: You guys haven't bought one Correl T shirt that I've
52:20
Speaker 4: had for sale. The link has been on my website
52:23
Speaker 4: for four years for Correl T shirts haven't sold any
52:30
Speaker 4: I just put that website up yesterday. Sold for Am
52:33
Speaker 4: I selling out?
52:34
Speaker 5: No?
52:35
Speaker 4: I'm finding a way to make a profit off of
52:37
Speaker 4: the idiots because I want to go. I want to
52:42
Speaker 4: get out, and I want to get out comfortably. I
52:45
Speaker 4: don't want to get out and be in poverty. And
52:48
Speaker 4: if I can let their money propel me out of
52:50
Speaker 4: this country to save my life, I will. And if
52:55
Speaker 4: that bothers some of y'all, oh well, Now, I did
53:01
Speaker 4: it as a joke and I am not going to
53:03
Speaker 4: manage it every day. I am not going to turn
53:06
Speaker 4: it into a big thing. It probably won't make any money. Okay,
53:10
Speaker 4: really it probably won't because I can't log on too
53:14
Speaker 4: true social and promote it. I can't. It just turns
53:16
Speaker 4: my stomach. I can't do it. But if I could
53:18
Speaker 4: find someone that could stomach it. I can come up
53:22
Speaker 4: with the designs because I just think of the most
53:24
Speaker 4: outrageous thing and then I make it a design because
53:27
Speaker 4: these people are just out of their minds crazy.
53:31
Speaker 6: You know.
53:32
Speaker 4: My friend, yeah, fight fire with fire. My friend Sean
53:36
Speaker 4: said this to me once, and I'll never forget it.
53:38
Speaker 4: We were driving down Broadway in Long Beach and there
53:41
Speaker 4: was this black guy walking the street and he was
53:44
Speaker 4: handsome as hell, but crazy as a motherfucker. I mean,
53:49
Speaker 4: he was out there crazy, but he was cute as hell.
53:53
Speaker 4: And Sean looked at him and goes, oh, I'd do him.
53:56
Speaker 4: And I said, Sean, he's out of his mind. And
53:59
Speaker 4: he said, crazy people need to have sex too, and
54:03
Speaker 4: I thought, oh my god. Now he was only joking partially,
54:08
Speaker 4: but it's the same thing. If crazy people are buying
54:12
Speaker 4: T shirts, then let them buy them from me. I
54:17
Speaker 4: used to work for Dave Garafalo in Huntington Beach, the
54:20
Speaker 4: leader of the Huntington Beach local news. He later got
54:23
Speaker 4: arrested and went to jail for all of his horrible crimes,
54:25
Speaker 4: and I was one of the key witnesses against him.
54:28
Speaker 4: But every week, every two weeks, I took his twelve
54:31
Speaker 4: hundred dollars to do a newspaper that I hated. The
54:34
Speaker 4: newspaper was filled with editorials by Dana Roorbacher and all
54:38
Speaker 4: these right wing, horrible people, and I had to typeset
54:40
Speaker 4: it and make it look great. But every month I
54:43
Speaker 4: got twenty four hundred dollars from him, and that paid
54:45
Speaker 4: my rent. Now, there did come a point where I
54:49
Speaker 4: finally just said enough, I can't deal with you anymore.
54:51
Speaker 4: Come and get your art boards. I just can't deal
54:53
Speaker 4: with you. But for several years I took his money
54:58
Speaker 4: and hated him. But I said, if that publican's gonna
55:00
Speaker 4: give anybody money to do that paper, it might as
55:03
Speaker 4: well be me. And I say the same thing about MAGA.
55:08
Speaker 4: If they're gonna spend money on stupid T shirts, they
55:10
Speaker 4: might as well be putting that money in my pocket.
55:14
Speaker 4: Now again, unless one of you want to run the
55:16
Speaker 4: website for me and do all the marketing, I'm not
55:19
Speaker 4: gonna put any effort into it. It was a joke.
55:23
Speaker 4: I just thought yesterday afternoon, I thought, I wonder if
55:26
Speaker 4: I could really do this, And then I did it,
55:28
Speaker 4: and set up a Shopify store and a Printify account
55:31
Speaker 4: and a true social account Instagram account. Make merchandise great again.
55:36
Speaker 4: But I'm not going to do what it takes to
55:37
Speaker 4: get followers and get sales and all that. And I'm
55:40
Speaker 4: not going to go to events with T shirts and things.
55:42
Speaker 4: I'm not. I'm just I'm not gonna do that. But
55:44
Speaker 4: if somebody out there wants to split the revenue with
55:46
Speaker 4: me and do it, hey, I'm up for it. Oh exhale, exhale.
56:00
Speaker 4: Oh bumper stickers. You're right, I should be doing the
56:06
Speaker 4: problem is getting them in front of MAGA. I started
56:09
Speaker 4: a true Social account, I have zero followers, so it's
56:12
Speaker 4: not going to push my content out there. I need
56:15
Speaker 4: someone to log in as me on True Social and
56:17
Speaker 4: start posting under other people's things with these photos and
56:20
Speaker 4: with these links and all of that. But oh well,
56:24
Speaker 4: oh well, but if you have any MAGA relatives, you
56:27
Speaker 4: can go buy them. Make merchandise great again? All right.
56:31
Speaker 4: I didn't want to have an angry show today. I
56:33
Speaker 4: love you all, and that's why I get so mad.
56:36
Speaker 4: I know most of you don't make one hundred and
56:38
Speaker 4: fifty thousand dollars a year, and most people that listen
56:41
Speaker 4: to talk radio don't make that much money. I know
56:43
Speaker 4: who the demographic is you know, most people that listen
56:47
Speaker 4: to podcasts aren't millionaires. It's not one of the twenty
56:49
Speaker 4: five you know million people that listen to podcasts. It's
56:52
Speaker 4: poor people, it's middle class people, it's people struggling. And
56:57
Speaker 4: that's I'm an mpath and I read that New York
57:00
Speaker 4: Time story and I go, no shit, New York Times.
57:02
Speaker 4: You had to do a whole you had to go
57:04
Speaker 4: research to see whether people making one hundred and thirty
57:06
Speaker 4: k a year or not can afford their life. I
57:08
Speaker 4: could have told you in one sentence, no, they can't.
57:12
Speaker 4: This is like news to the rich now. It really
57:15
Speaker 4: is to the people making three hundred thousand, four hundred thousand,
57:19
Speaker 4: five hundred thousand dollars a year. They're not millionaires, they're
57:22
Speaker 4: not one of the twenty five million, but they're making
57:25
Speaker 4: two three four hundred thousand a year. It's news to
57:28
Speaker 4: them that almost everybody in the country is, you know, suffering,
57:32
Speaker 4: because they look around and they see teslas everywhere. People
57:35
Speaker 4: are in debt for those. The other day at the
57:37
Speaker 4: food bank, I counted ten teslas in line to get
57:40
Speaker 4: free food. Ten ten teslas, so ten households felt that
57:46
Speaker 4: paying the car payment on a tesla was more important
57:50
Speaker 4: than buying food ten in line to get free food.
57:57
Speaker 4: We're not making it, and I'm mad about that. I'm
58:01
Speaker 4: mad that we're concerned with where trans people shit and
58:03
Speaker 4: piss and not about the water that goes into the bathroom.
58:09
Speaker 4: The West is out of water. I want to leave
58:11
Speaker 4: Vegas mainly because we're out of fucking water. And California
58:17
Speaker 4: is out of water, Utah, Colorado out of water. No
58:23
Speaker 4: one doing a thing to get more water to it.
58:28
Speaker 4: I care. I care because I'm one of you. I
58:33
Speaker 4: struggle like you, and it sucks. But other times it's
58:39
Speaker 4: create when you hug your dog, I am forrelbe who
58:42
Speaker 4: you want to be. It's on that hurt your buddy.
58:44
Speaker 4: I love you, I do. That's why I get so
58:46
