  Audio shared by Testecleese: I am not suicidal!

  Audio shared by Testecleese: Do not come.
• 0:29
  Audio shared by Testecleese: Do not come.
• 0:31
  Audio shared by Testecleese: I'm gonna… Hello, and welcome to episode 333 of the Jeffrey and Brian Show. I am Jeffrey.
• 0:39
  Brian McFadden: And I'm Brian, the magic number.
• 0:41
  Testecleese: I was just gonna say, it's like the magic number, but it's an extra 3.
• 0:46
  Testecleese: I think we brought this up the last time 33 came up, too, and probably the time before that.
• 0:50
  Brian McFadden: I'm sure we do it every time.
• 0:53
  Testecleese: We have Guapo with us.
• 0:56
  El Guapo: This is it.
• 0:57
  Testecleese: And I don't know how many actual, like, habitual followers we have, but you probably noticed we missed, what, 2 weeks?
• 1:05
  Brian McFadden: I thought it was… was it 2 or 3?
• 1:08
  Testecleese: Well, yesterday would've been 3.
• 1:10
  Brian McFadden: Okay. So… Alright. Yeah, 2 weeks.
• 1:13
  Testecleese: Yeah, I took the family out on vacation, forgot to bring it up on the show last time before we signed off.
• 1:20
  Testecleese: I'm gonna tell ya, the… went to a swim-up bar.
• 1:24
  Testecleese: Never done that before, it's pretty cool.
• 1:27
  Brian McFadden: I've done it before.
• 1:29
  Testecleese: Yeah, well, I went on a…
• 1:31
  Testecleese: cruise to the Bahamas, and… no, no one came back with hantavirus.
• 1:37
  Brian McFadden: Oh, that's too bad.
• 1:39
  El Guapo: Let's start to do.
• 1:42
  Brian McFadden: What about Ebola? That's making a comeback, too.
• 1:47
  Testecleese: Ebola shows up every year in California and Chicago, though, remember? We talk about this, like, every year, like, oh…
• 1:53
  Testecleese: Filthy…
• 1:54
  Brian McFadden: Fuck me.
• 1:54
  Testecleese: you know, people shitting on the streets, you're gonna get Ebola happening, you know what I mean?
• 2:01
  Testecleese: The virus, though, is interesting, it doesn't pack person to person.
• 2:05
  Testecleese: So I don't know why they're making such a big, big deal about this.
• 2:09
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 2:10
  Testecleese: I mean, we get a hand… we get a couple dozen cases each year, and that's from being exposed to rodent feces.
• 2:17
  Testecleese: Which, I'm not sure which cruise line these guys were on.
• 2:21
  Testecleese: But, oh my…
• 2:23
  Brian McFadden: It's kind of like a world cruise line. Yeah, they were like… it was like a 3-month cruise.
• 2:28
  Testecleese: Oh, dear God.
• 2:30
  Testecleese: Yeah, that means they… they probably had these rodents, possibly in the ventilation, what, 5 people got sick, 3 of them died, or something like that?
• 2:40
  Testecleese: Which is a little… a little high, but with such a small sample, it's…
• 2:43
  Testecleese: Tough to get the, you know, accurate numbers to come out, because it's something like 40% fatal without…
• 2:48
  Testecleese: Like, good hospital care.
• 2:52
  Testecleese: That one's actually under intro, but I knew we were gonna get to this. I knew we were gonna bring this up as to why I was gone.
• 3:02
  Testecleese: Yeah, okay, somebody shared this, I'm not sure who, there's a lot of crap to dig through when I got back. Yeah. Basically the GPS device that the, the pilot had on the aircraft that got, that went down in the Middle East.
• 3:16
  Brian McFadden: Huh.
• 3:18
  Testecleese: There's something special about it, I guess, I don't know.
• 3:21
  Brian McFadden: Nobody knew about it until now.
• 3:23
  Testecleese: About GPS? I thought everybody knew about.
• 3:25
  Brian McFadden: No, but it's not like a GPS, it's something… It's something more than GPS.
• 3:32
  Testecleese: Well, that's fascinating, because we've got another topic we're gonna get into. I'm gonna bring this up, because I actually mentioned that to the… an idea of a GPS that's not satellite-based.
• 3:43
  Testecleese: You know, it wouldn't be GPS, obviously, Global Positioning Satellites.
• 3:47
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 3:47
  Testecleese: There's still gotta be a way to get, you know, longitude and latitude.
• 3:50
  El Guapo: Platform radars bouncing off, look.
• 3:53
  Testecleese: Possibly.
• 3:54
  Testecleese: You might be just flashing lasers out into the sky that only we could pick up with our, you know…
• 3:59
  El Guapo: Yeah, and they said, like, a strictly, friendly.
• 4:03
  Brian McFadden: Because GPS is part of the pilot to be able to find his way around, not to track them with. This is something that was a tracking device that the United States was able to use to actually pinpoint his location with.
• 4:16
  Testecleese: Yeah, but I got a device when I go out hunting, I carry with me, and if I actually get, like, lost in the woods and something goes wrong, I hit a button and it sends out a…
• 4:23
  El Guapo: The stress signal.
• 4:24
  Testecleese: Yeah, but the thing is, that does send it out to the entire world to see. Like, someone needs help in Appalachia.
• 4:31
  El Guapo: Nikki.
• 4:32
  Testecleese: So, I mean, there's gotta be a way you can encrypt these so that not just everyone can pick them up, same idea, but… I don't know.
• 4:39
  El Guapo: Okay, why are we talking about this?
• 4:41
  El Guapo: the…
• 4:42
  Testecleese: follow-up stuff, the pilot then went down, there was more stuff that came out. We like to try to keep on stuff if we can.
• 4:48
  El Guapo: Oh, no, but I said, well, what's so special about the GPS.
• 4:52
  Brian McFadden: It wasn't GPS.
• 4:53
  Testecleese: No, it was something else.
• 4:55
  El Guapo: Oh, that's why I couldn't keep track of them.
• 4:59
  Testecleese: This is fascinating. So we keep hearing about all these claims that, Gaza's starving to death, and that's why, like, Greta Thunberg is trying to go in and break this blockade to make sure that these people get their food. Which, as more people are saying, that's how they're smuggling weapons into these folks.
• 5:15
  Testecleese: Well, it turns out the malnutrition case is, since Israel got involved in feeding the people, and making sure they're not getting weapons, the, starvation has gone down by 83%.
• 5:26
  Brian McFadden: Wow.
• 5:28
  Testecleese: Let's all back up a second, and go, wow, things are much better this way right now. Everyone was stopping at that because they were smuggling in weapons to go kill…
• 5:36
  Testecleese: German students on spring break, or what… what's in October? I don't know. Whatever break they get in October.
• 5:43
  Testecleese: To go to a concert, you know?
• 5:46
  Brian McFadden: Hmm.
• 5:46
  El Guapo: No.
• 5:50
  Testecleese: Speaking of the.
• 5:53
  El Guapo: Hantavirus.
• 5:55
  Testecleese: Purdue Pharma, They were the ones who made OxyContin is dissolving.
• 6:02
  Testecleese: Under, like, direction of a court, which I found fascinating.
• 6:08
  Testecleese: I don't know how many of those documentary-type things you watch on TV, like Michael Keaton or whatever, about OxyContin.
• 6:15
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, I watched it.
• 6:16
  Testecleese: Yeah, it was pretty informative, actually.
• 6:21
  Testecleese: I just thought that was interesting that this big deal pharma… pharmaceutical company's closing up, but after COVID, well, I don't know, maybe it'll be another 20 years before
• 6:30
  Testecleese: was it, Moderna closes down.
• 6:34
  Testecleese: By the way, Moderna is already working on a vaccine for hantavirus, and their stock is up, like, 180%.
• 6:41
  Brian McFadden: Of course it is.
• 6:42
  Testecleese: It's like 30 cases a year you're gonna get a vaccine for? Dear God, what kind of crap are you gonna just keep pumping into your body?
• 6:52
  Testecleese: blah blah blah blah…
• 6:54
  Testecleese: Oh, and the statute of limitations on Fauci lying to Congress expires on Monday, and rand Paul was attempting to get some kind of indictment before that.
• 7:07
  Testecleese: We called this at the out start, that this is just… isn't right with the COVID break… outbreak.
• 7:12
  Testecleese: And then he went and flat-out lied to Congress, and it was so obvious, because he contradicted himself in the same sentence.
• 7:20
  Testecleese: And we said nothing was gonna happen about it.
• 7:22
  Testecleese: And it looks like.
• 7:24
  El Guapo: In 2 days.
• 7:26
  Testecleese: Yeah, on the 18th. It'll be too late to do anything about it.
• 7:32
  El Guapo: So.
• 7:33
  Testecleese: There you go, more, more folks put into positions over you that don't have to suffer consequences.
• 7:40
  El Guapo: Yeah, the, Hanta Bar, sort of a… Oh, look at this, another…
• 7:46
  Testecleese: Another teacher, this is a substitute teacher in North Carolina that was caught sleeping with her male students.
• 7:52
  El Guapo: Oh my god, man, so many, dude.
• 7:55
  Testecleese: It's almost like we go looking for these…
• 7:57
  El Guapo: Women sleeping with students on purpose. They just, they just pop out, I don't know what to do.
• 8:02
  Testecleese: This is getting out of control, how…
• 8:04
  El Guapo: I think it's just what I want to have, 50-50 teacher, male and female.
• 8:09
  El Guapo: A good ratio, male and female. At least they're gonna sleep with each other.
• 8:13
  Testecleese: It's tough to get more men teaching, though.
• 8:16
  El Guapo: I know.
• 8:17
  Testecleese: And that's the thing, is everyone… everyone says that exactly, Guapo. It's like, oh, we should… it should be the same amount, male and female. But the problem is, as soon as a man's a teacher, like, what, you just want to diddle kids? Like, the women are the ones diddling kids!
• 8:28
  El Guapo: Yeah, at least they're gonna diddle each other, you know?
• 8:33
  Testecleese: Yeah, exactly. If you two of these teachers want to bang each other, I don't give a crap, but you're.
• 8:37
  El Guapo: Yeah, at least they're gonna lose their job, and they're gonna get arrested, probably…
• 8:41
  Testecleese: They should go to prison!
• 8:43
  El Guapo: Oh, yeah, they were delivery kits, yeah, but I said, when they did on each other.
• 8:47
  El Guapo: No. Yeah, they're just gonna have a shame.
• 8:49
  Testecleese: That's just two consent… two consenting adults that have to file paperwork.
• 8:53
  El Guapo: So, probably one of them is married, the other one's not, and…
• 8:57
  El Guapo: Yeah, that's them fucking around with their own lives, not children's lives.
• 9:02
  Testecleese: This is fascinating. AOC said it is impossible to legitimately earn a billion dollars.
• 9:10
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 9:11
  Testecleese: Well, what gets me is that…
• 9:13
  El Guapo: AOC doesn't understand how…
• 9:15
  Testecleese: The economy works, which pisses me off, because she's an econ major.
• 9:19
  Testecleese: At UMass Boston.
• 9:21
  El Guapo: So…
• 9:22
  Testecleese: Once again, anyone who went to UMass Boston for an economy degree…
• 9:26
  Testecleese: Go demand your money back, because they, they made a socialist who thinks it's impossible to make a billion dollars, legitimately.
• 9:34
  El Guapo: Well, let's just say…
• 9:37
  Testecleese: Finally get my water-powered engine working. Properly, right?
• 9:42
  Testecleese: And I go, and I start building a line of cars.
• 9:46
  Testecleese: And, let's say it costs me $5,000 to make each vehicle, and I sell them for $6,000 a piece.
• 9:52
  Testecleese: We've replaced just about every vehicle on the planet within a couple years, right?
• 9:57
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 9:57
  Testecleese: Wouldn't I be a billionaire legitimately that way? She's saying I must be abusing people.
• 10:03
  El Guapo: Somehow…
• 10:06
  Testecleese: To make a billion dollars.
• 10:10
  Testecleese: And it's funny, Bernie Sanders used to say the same thing about millionaires.
• 10:14
  El Guapo: Because you became a millionaire?
• 10:16
  Testecleese: Until he became a millionaire, because he wrote a… or had someone else write a book with his name on it.
• 10:20
  El Guapo: But let's sort of projected each other, dudes, like, see, find out how Bernie Sanders made his million dollars. Who can I buy a book from Bernie, dude?
• 10:28
  Testecleese: A lot of people would, just because Bernie's name was on it.
• 10:30
  El Guapo: Nope.
• 10:31
  Testecleese: I know a lot of people that voted Trump that,
• 10:33
  Testecleese: Ed voted Bernie earlier, and we're gonna vote for Bernie until Hillary Clinton pushed him out of the race.
• 10:39
  El Guapo: Yeah, no, but I'm saying, like, I'll…
• 10:42
  El Guapo: Why he… why has he done his entire life done nothing? Nothing work, only been in Congress?
• 10:48
  El Guapo: Most of his adult life.
• 10:51
  El Guapo: nothing substantial out of him, you know, nothing you're gonna learn.
• 10:55
  Testecleese: From what I understand, the only legitimate work Bernie Sanders ever actually had, and by that I mean not working for, like, the government.
• 11:02
  Testecleese: Was, porn.
• 11:05
  Testecleese: Back in, like, the 70s.
• 11:07
  Brian McFadden: No.
• 11:08
  Testecleese: Yeah, I'm not sure if he was an actor or he was in production. He was probably the poor guy that had to get the terrible angle from underneath with the camera, you know what I mean?
• 11:16
  Brian McFadden: She was the fluffer.
• 11:20
  El Guapo: The billionaires and the millionaires!
• 11:23
  Testecleese: Gotta keep him hard for the next shot. Oh, God, my life is terrible! I wanna be a senator!
• 11:31
  El Guapo: I mean, the only one who had a job was his wife, I see what…
• 11:35
  El Guapo: She never got arrested for the.
• 11:38
  Brian McFadden: But you never know. That was a big cover-up.
• 11:40
  El Guapo: What's that?
• 11:42
  Brian McFadden: She ran that university into the ground.
• 11:46
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 11:47
  Testecleese: Yeah, you're right, that… didn't Elizabeth Warren do the same thing or something?
• 11:51
  El Guapo: No, she… I don't remember.
• 11:54
  El Guapo: No, that's right, she…
• 11:55
  Testecleese: She was a teacher at Harvard, right? Because she, was a native.
• 11:59
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 12:00
  Brian McFadden: No, she got into Harvard because of that.
• 12:04
  El Guapo: I think she came out with some theory, but it was actually legitimate.
• 12:09
  Brian McFadden: Goodness, he had high cheekbones.
• 12:10
  Testecleese: That's obviously… I'm like, wow, way to be stereotypical with your racism, you know?
• 12:16
  El Guapo: Yeah, what…
• 12:17
  Testecleese: But yeah, there's something I brought up to the wife about the billion dollars.
• 12:21
  El Guapo: Anything.
• 12:21
  Testecleese: What if I came up with some kind of new tech that works like a GPS system, but it doesn't need satellites? I could just give you a global position without a satellite. I was like, this would… this would sell.
• 12:32
  El Guapo: Well, that's… that's cell phones, it goes past towers. Towers have got a position set already, so you don't need to get a satellite.
• 12:42
  Testecleese: Yeah, the issue with the towers is, like, I live in the middle of a national forest.
• 12:47
  Testecleese: And once you get off, like, the main roads…
• 12:49
  Brian McFadden: I actually say that.
• 12:52
  Testecleese: Main roads.
• 12:54
  Testecleese: On my way back here from Hampton Roads, my way here, I drove 5 hours through the George Washington National Forest.
• 13:01
  Brian McFadden: That's how I went… I went out of town. When I came home, that's how I.
• 13:04
  Testecleese: There's… Yeah, there's no…
• 13:06
  Brian McFadden: No cell service! No cell service.
• 13:07
  Testecleese: No cell, no GP, nothing. It's all… if you don't lock in your GPS in advance.
• 13:12
  El Guapo: You won't be able.
• 13:13
  Testecleese: communicate with a satellite to get your, to get your location. Thank God we didn't, lose,
• 13:18
  Testecleese: power or something, or shut off the GPS to get home, because…
• 13:23
  Testecleese: Jeez, it was a long ride on that same road. It's like, turn right, it's like, it's the same road!
• 13:28
  Brian McFadden: Yep, yep, I thought that was…
• 13:30
  Brian McFadden: I was never getting to that gas station. I started getting text messages from my brother once I got sold service, like, you've got 5 miles left in the tank!
• 13:37
  El Guapo: I'm digging.
• 13:38
  Brian McFadden: I'm getting alerts for the last half hour on this.
• 13:41
  Testecleese: Yeah, we… exactly, we were driving, like.
• 13:44
  Testecleese: The wife's like, we're like a half a tank. I was like, yeah, it's been an hour since the last gas station, let's go ahead and top off, you know?
• 13:50
  Brian McFadden: Smart, smart.
• 13:53
  Testecleese: Yeah, and now AOC's saying her ambition is bigger than just holding a presidential title.
• 13:58
  Testecleese: Wh-what, does she want to be king of the world?
• 14:02
  Testecleese: What's… what's more ambitious than Prison of the United States?
• 14:08
  El Guapo: OnlyFans?
• 14:10
  El Guapo: Oh, God.
• 14:11
  Testecleese: See, the thing is, she'd probably… she'd probably be wrong.
• 14:13
  Testecleese: a million dollars if she had done one term in Congress and done OnlyFans.
• 14:21
  Testecleese: Josh.
• 14:22
  Testecleese: This is interesting.
• 14:24
  Testecleese: He's gonna need the help of Congress, but Trump said he's gonna make a move to try to spend the gas tax, because gasoline is expensive as fuck, I'm sure everyone noticed.
• 14:32
  El Guapo: Yeah, yeah.
• 14:33
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, oh, it's $5 a gallon here in Michigan.
• 14:36
  Testecleese: $4.69 here, which is nuts, I've never seen it over $4… well, I say that. When we first got here.
• 14:44
  Testecleese: It was on its way back down from under Biden.
• 14:48
  Testecleese: But jeez, yeah, I went up 30 cents when I was gone for a week and a half. I was like, holy shit, that's nuts.
• 14:56
  Testecleese: Yeah, obviously he's gonna need Congress to deal with taxes.
• 15:00
  Testecleese: But.
• 15:02
  Brian McFadden: We're all on board. This is one thing he might actually be able to get everybody to agree on.
• 15:06
  Testecleese: You think so? You don't think the Democrats want to leave.
• 15:08
  Brian McFadden: No, they wanted, they wanted, too. They wanted to lower, too, for their re-election purposes.
• 15:14
  Testecleese: See, I'm surprised they don't want to point at what Trump did to gasoline.
• 15:17
  Brian McFadden: Oh, they're still gonna point internally.
• 15:18
  Testecleese: I'm up.
• 15:19
  Brian McFadden: They're still gonna point at it.
• 15:23
  Testecleese: True. No one… and then they're gonna look… Well, shoot, when it happened under Biden, like, I drive a Tesla. It's like, well, you don't anymore. Oh, by the way…
• 15:32
  Testecleese: I saw more Teslas in New England.
• 15:36
  Testecleese: this last trip up there, and I was only in the area for a couple hours at a time.
• 15:41
  Testecleese: than I've seen, like, in my entire life. They're everywhere. I thought people were lighting these things on fire, and no one drove them anymore.
• 15:47
  El Guapo: No, they're still good, they're just hypocrites, they don't want to pay for gas.
• 15:50
  Testecleese: It was a… it's a super liberal area in New Jersey, and everyone's driving a Tesla around. I was like…
• 15:55
  Testecleese: You do realize that your own people are the ones keying these cars, right?
• 16:00
  El Guapo: Yeah, they put, like, stickers, like, hey, I bought this before.
• 16:04
  Testecleese: Before Elon went crazy, I saw one of those stickers. I didn't see any of them that were keyed up. Must have seen 3 Cybertrucks.
• 16:12
  Testecleese: Who's not? And I don't know who Alex Murdaugh is. I've heard the name…
• 16:18
  Brian McFadden: South Carolina.
• 16:20
  Testecleese: Yeah, he was murdered, and his conviction's just been overturned with a new trial coming up, because,
• 16:26
  Testecleese: Like, the jury was tainted, or, like, the court…
• 16:29
  Brian McFadden: The, the court… the court recorder was tainted.
• 16:33
  El Guapo: Yeah, the… she was, like, telling the…
• 16:37
  El Guapo: The jury had to think and stuff like that, like, purchase body language and stuff like that, like…
• 16:41
  Testecleese: Why is the court reporter getting involved in this at all?
• 16:46
  El Guapo: Like, why is it…
• 16:47
  Testecleese: versions.
• 16:48
  Brian McFadden: No idea.
• 16:50
  Testecleese: Yeah, why do they…
• 16:50
  El Guapo: to get it, and she was…
• 16:51
  Testecleese: I know, it seems that you shouldn't be speaking to the jury at all.
• 16:54
  El Guapo: I know, and she's selling a book and stuff like that, so…
• 16:57
  Testecleese: Oh… that might be a crime, then, if she's gonna sell a book about it, too.
• 17:02
  El Guapo: Yeah, she needed something to put on her, like, in a book, so she tainted a jury just to, like.
• 17:08
  El Guapo: I guess this is a random thing, and that she just needed to put something in her book, and this is why everything's making news right now.
• 17:18
  Testecleese: If she intentionally threw a trial off, that's a criminal offense, right?
• 17:23
  El Guapo: Yeah, so she can add it.
• 17:24
  Brian McFadden: You should be, yeah.
• 17:25
  El Guapo: I was there for that, stuff like that.
• 17:27
  Testecleese: Not just a fine, like, pay the court costs and everything, like, this is time that could have been spent
• 17:32
  Testecleese: on a different case or something, you know? Yeah.
• 17:36
  Testecleese: Alright, over here, we had 68,000 people in West Virginia switch party affiliations ahead of the, primary that just happened.
• 17:45
  El Guapo: They went from…
• 17:46
  Testecleese: Too Republican.
• 17:48
  El Guapo: Oh, wow.
• 17:50
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, I shared that article.
• 17:51
  Testecleese: Yeah, that's a lot of people in West Virginia.
• 17:55
  Testecleese: We did just have the election, on Tuesday, which… they shut everything down on Tuesday. They don't even do school on election days here.
• 18:05
  Testecleese: Did not realize that until after I drove an hour and a half to the, DMV.
• 18:10
  Testecleese: to register the new trailer I just bought, and they were closed.
• 18:13
  Brian McFadden: Oh, man…
• 18:15
  Testecleese: Yes.
• 18:16
  Brian McFadden: I guess you got some fast food while you're out and about.
• 18:19
  Testecleese: Yes, obviously. When I was out there, I was like, Burger King.
• 18:25
  Testecleese: Actually, I think we had tacos, but…
• 18:27
  Testecleese: Oh, man, I had so much Taco Bell when I was, out of West Virginia. Everyone we saw was like, I'm getting tacos.
• 18:36
  Brian McFadden: We got a Jack in the Box opening up here in, like, another few weeks.
• 18:41
  Testecleese: It's burgers, right?
• 18:42
  Brian McFadden: I got everything. All you can eat, all-day breakfast.
• 18:47
  Brian McFadden: Burgers, tacos, you name it, they got it.
• 18:50
  Brian McFadden: I agree.
• 18:51
  Testecleese: I thought for sure they were gonna…
• 18:53
  Testecleese: I thought for sure they were gonna collapse after that whole rat thing a couple… several years ago.
• 18:59
  Brian McFadden: That just adds flavoring to the meat.
• 19:01
  Testecleese: Ugh.
• 19:01
  El Guapo: Positive.
• 19:03
  Testecleese: Dude, that might have been a decade ago.
• 19:06
  Testecleese: Yeah, this is your vaccine. We're gonna give you a dead strain of the virus in this rat, and then you're gonna be immune to hantavirus.
• 19:16
  Testecleese: I don't think I've ever eaten at a Jack in the Box, I don't think I've ever actually even seen one in real… in person.
• 19:21
  Brian McFadden: They have them in North Carolina, that's the only place that has them on the West Coast.
• 19:25
  Brian McFadden: On the East Coast. They're more… they're really big on the West Coast.
• 19:29
  Testecleese: Mmm. Alright.
• 19:30
  Brian McFadden: So…
• 19:36
  El Guapo: the…
• 19:37
  Testecleese: The critic there, the El Salvadorian, priest?
• 19:42
  Brian McFadden: Nope.
• 19:43
  Testecleese: That was giving Trump a hard time.
• 19:46
  Testecleese: is, my new bishop here in West Virginia.
• 19:52
  Testecleese: So… Meh her.
• 19:55
  Testecleese: I'm trying to keep religion and politics separate, just because… they are.
• 20:02
  Testecleese: But…
• 20:03
  Testecleese: I hear a lot of people claiming that the church is wrong on a lot of stuff concerning… Trump is going against the church on a lot of stuff. I'm like, first of all, have you guys actually read the book, the good book?
• 20:13
  Testecleese: Like, it actually says, like, there's this place for governments.
• 20:16
  Testecleese: And then, the same people that said that,
• 20:19
  Testecleese: you know, all Christians are extremists, which I… what got me was they said all Catholics are extremists, and I was like, isn't Joe Biden Catholic? He was president at the time.
• 20:29
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 20:30
  Testecleese: Well, he claimed he was Catholic, anyway.
• 20:33
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, that's debatable.
• 20:34
  Testecleese: Yeah, as he's going for abortion, even the Pope was like, you're not a real Catholic if you believe in abortion. That's the long and short of it right there.
• 20:45
  Testecleese: But yeah, I've been worried, not about my church in particular, but…
• 20:48
  Testecleese: the Catholic Church bending to the will of the people? They've already changed the church.
• 20:53
  Testecleese: Exactly.
• 20:54
  Testecleese: Like, we don't do the Apostles' Creed demo, we have some other thing that's similar, but… man, they changed the responses, so, like, everything's been programmed into my head.
• 21:04
  Testecleese: And I'm… It's a little weird, and we do a prayer to the Archangel Michael.
• 21:10
  Testecleese: Every week, and that's… that's new, too.
• 21:12
  Brian McFadden: Alaska.
• 21:14
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 21:15
  Testecleese: At least nuisance COVID.
• 21:18
  Testecleese: Or since probably shortly before COVID.
• 21:24
  El Guapo: Oh.
• 21:25
  Testecleese: National Fallen Fighter Fighters Weekend was the last weekend.
• 21:29
  Testecleese: Never heard of it, never heard of it myself.
• 21:31
  Brian McFadden: Well, the president ordered the flags to be flown at half-staff, too, so…
• 21:36
  Testecleese: Well, the governor did too, I don't know if he did it first or what, but…
• 21:40
  Testecleese: It's always good to give some,
• 21:42
  Testecleese: respect for those that gave their lives for you, and instead of saying, well, if the lesbian can't carry your fat ass out of the fire, maybe you should think about why you were stuck in a fire. It's like, what?
• 21:53
  Testecleese: Aw, then why put the fire out?
• 21:56
  Testecleese: You remember that, with the whole Karen Bass thing?
• 21:58
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 22:00
  Testecleese: Yeah, her, and her…
• 22:01
  Brian McFadden: For real life, man.
• 22:02
  Testecleese: Yeah, we'll probably get to that.
• 22:06
  Testecleese: What's going on in Michigan?
• 22:08
  Brian McFadden: No, we got this rural road that's actually in the county I live in.
• 22:13
  Brian McFadden: And it's actually… Like, parts of two different townships and a county.
• 22:20
  Brian McFadden: And nobody actually wants to pay… it used to be paid, technically is…
• 22:25
  Brian McFadden: Still paved. It's paved with potholes now. Yes. And no… nobody wants to own up and pitch in to get it repaid, or converted, and they don't… the people that live on the road don't want it turned back into gravel, which is what happens with a lot of these paved roads around here. After a while, they end up turning back into gravel roads.
• 22:45
  Testecleese: Why doesn't each municipality just handle the section in their area, then?
• 22:52
  Brian McFadden: Because, like.
• 22:54
  Brian McFadden: Tikonsha, the township I live in, say they don't have any money set aside for roads, they don't have… like, most of the jurisdictions… Should be the gas tax.
• 23:02
  Testecleese: right?
• 23:02
  Brian McFadden: They have extra millage.
• 23:05
  Brian McFadden: put on their personal prop… their property taxes on the houses and stuff, and Tikansha never went… never agreed to do that, so we don't have a whole lot of money to work on roads with.
• 23:16
  Testecleese: Yeah, that's usually a gas tax thing to pay for the roads, right?
• 23:19
  Brian McFadden: Well, that's where the state gets their money from, but not the lower government agencies.
• 23:24
  Testecleese: Yeah, well.
• 23:25
  Brian McFadden: Not the county, not the…
• 23:26
  Testecleese: The state won't fix these county roads?
• 23:29
  Brian McFadden: No. No, they got too many potholes in their own highways.
• 23:33
  Testecleese: See, it's… that's fascinating to me, because West Virginia takes care of their potholes. Just yesterday, we had… or two days ago, we had a machine come through, rip up the road where the potholes are, then the next day they came in and paved them over again.
• 23:44
  Testecleese: And they do it so quick after the thaw every year. So, are they actually going to pave this road, or what?
• 23:51
  Brian McFadden: No idea, it's still being talked about.
• 23:54
  Testecleese: Mmm.
• 23:55
  Brian McFadden: the wheels of… Small town government run very slowly.
• 24:01
  Brian McFadden: But now that I'm a resident here, I may actually go to a township meeting and listen in and see how ridiculous it really is. I see the comments on Facebook.
• 24:11
  Brian McFadden: But, I have a hard time believing it's bad as they make it sound on Facebook, so…
• 24:15
  Testecleese: I don't know, I'm seeing a lot of, in general, what's going on with the politics and the, political parties in Michigan, and I totally believe that
• 24:23
  Testecleese: Nothing's getting done, and your money's being stoned by illegal migrants who…
• 24:28
  Testecleese: You know, trafficked children or something, you know?
• 24:30
  Brian McFadden: Huh.
• 24:33
  Testecleese: Well, there we go!
• 24:36
  Testecleese: MSU, is that Mizzou?
• 24:39
  Brian McFadden: No, it's Michigan State University. It's here in Michigan. It's near Lansing, the state capitol, and they had to evacuate this whole, like, academic building because, they found a meth lab on campus.
• 24:55
  El Guapo: Damn.
• 24:56
  Testecleese: I mean… I mean, like… If a college university campus doesn't have what you need to make meth.
• 25:05
  Testecleese: They don't have a very good science department, let's be real here, right?
• 25:09
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 25:14
  Testecleese: just… Alright.
• 25:17
  Testecleese: But this guy, was he a student?
• 25:19
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, he was a student. He was a student.
• 25:21
  Testecleese: Alright.
• 25:22
  Testecleese: And just…
• 25:23
  Brian McFadden: I don't think he's a student anymore.
• 25:26
  Testecleese: Oh, he's probably in prison, right? Yeah, he's facing charges.
• 25:28
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, he's facing charges, so he's in jail. He might be out on bail now.
• 25:32
  Testecleese: Jeez, and that… Some Walter White shit here, you know what I mean?
• 25:37
  Brian McFadden: Exactly, yeah, yep.
• 25:40
  Testecleese: Eisenberg!
• 25:42
  Testecleese: Man, what a good show that was, wasn't it?
• 25:44
  Brian McFadden: Yup.
• 25:45
  Testecleese: Speaking of, did you see his new show? That's back?
• 25:49
  Brian McFadden: What's it called?
• 25:51
  Testecleese: Bryan Kranz is doing a new Malcolm in the Middle.
• 25:54
  El Guapo: The only difference.
• 25:55
  Brian McFadden: Oh, I watched it, they did a short season, I think it was on Hulu, I watched it.
• 26:00
  Testecleese: Oh, see, I didn't realize it was a short season, I had only seen…
• 26:02
  Brian McFadden: I think there's, like, 5 episodes of it.
• 26:04
  Testecleese: Yeah. The, the non-binary.
• 26:07
  El Guapo: sibling.
• 26:09
  Testecleese: Threw me for a little bit of a loop, though.
• 26:12
  Testecleese: Because that's an extra kid from what they, had left.
• 26:15
  El Guapo: Left off with it.
• 26:16
  Testecleese: before.
• 26:16
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 26:18
  Testecleese: And Michigan man sentenced to 30 years for killing his best friend on the wedding day. What's that about?
• 26:25
  Brian McFadden: There was alcohol involved, and…
• 26:28
  Brian McFadden: he left the scene of the reception, came back with a gun, I believe, and shot him.
• 26:37
  Testecleese: Nothing in this dude's head said this isn't the right thing to do.
• 26:40
  Brian McFadden: He's saying it now!
• 26:44
  Brian McFadden: It's too late now.
• 26:45
  El Guapo: Hi.
• 26:47
  Testecleese: And it was his best friend, too.
• 26:48
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, it was, yeah.
• 26:50
  Testecleese: Did he love this woman himself?
• 26:52
  Brian McFadden: I don't think so. I don't even know what the quarrel was about. It didn't elaborate what the whole quarrel was about, but it was like, holy shit, it's 30 years ago.
• 27:00
  Testecleese: Yeah, it was probably him being too drunk.
• 27:03
  Testecleese: And the groom tell him, like, go cool off, you know what I mean?
• 27:08
  El Guapo: Mmm.
• 27:10
  Testecleese: Gee, or God, man. And yeah, what, you said, he's facing 30 years?
• 27:13
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 27:15
  El Guapo: Damn, more than life.
• 27:18
  Testecleese: That's fucked up, dude.
• 27:22
  Testecleese: Oh, dear God. Alright.
• 27:26
  Testecleese: Virginia Beach, servicemen, what's going on?
• 27:31
  Testecleese: Everything that seems to happen with a sailor getting in trouble or dying always seems to be out of Norfolk, have you noticed that?
• 27:36
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, well, this one's been charged after they, convinced a teen to fly to Norfolk.
• 27:45
  Testecleese: Oh, is this… Is this the girl? Okay.
• 27:50
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 27:52
  Testecleese: Sorry, I had heard something about this, I guess. She thought she was in love with this guy or whatever, and, like, he invited her out to Virginia, and I was like, she was, like, 16 or something, then I was like, oh, man.
• 28:02
  El Guapo: You… Yeah.
• 28:03
  Testecleese: Yeah, you're going away, dude, that's the end of that.
• 28:06
  El Guapo: No, she… that's where they found her hotel over here, dude, in Virginia Peach.
• 28:11
  Testecleese: Well, that's what blows my mind, though. It's like, even if you're.
• 28:14
  El Guapo: And first of all, how does she fly with that ID, man? Like, you have to at least be 16 to have an ID.
• 28:22
  Testecleese: You can get identification younger, it's just… yeah, but why would you bother, typically?
• 28:26
  El Guapo: I know, but I'm saying, like, okay, so, like, didn't catch the age of, like, hold on, you're 14? Why are you flying by yourself? That's a minor.
• 28:35
  Testecleese: Yeah, I'm not sure what the rules are, bro. Maybe they went through Spirit Airlines.
• 28:39
  Brian McFadden: Before the club.
• 28:41
  El Guapo: I feel like, we don't care, whatever.
• 28:42
  Testecleese: Yeah, we're going out of business anyway, it's Louis Gordon's fault.
• 28:45
  El Guapo: Hop on board. We'll take your money.
• 28:49
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 28:49
  El Guapo: We take whatever we get now.
• 28:53
  Testecleese: Yeah, I saw that news pop up as I was driving through New York, and I was like, oh, dear God. I was like, didn't Elizabeth Warren, wasn't she the one who stopped them from being bought out by a larger…
• 29:02
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, that was a whole movie blown out on Facebook, yeah.
• 29:07
  Testecleese: owned.
• 29:07
  El Guapo: Trump because he don't want to bail them out, like, he… I kind of hate it when they're trying to bail, but he… his spirit didn't like the agreement that he was trying to push, you know?
• 29:16
  Brian McFadden: He said it had to benefit the U.S. government in order for the government to do it, so…
• 29:20
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 29:21
  Testecleese: Well, what bothered me a little bit is they're… I read something about how they're trying to figure out how, who's gonna get, like.
• 29:28
  Testecleese: Possession over, like, their properties, like, their aircraft and stuff.
• 29:33
  Brian McFadden: A lot of them are leased aircraft, so I… I read an article, I don't know if I put it in here or not, I don't think it did, but about the…
• 29:39
  Testecleese: It's… if it is, it's.
• 29:40
  Brian McFadden: It was the repo people, and how they had to clear everything through… they said it's not like Discovery Channel's repo plane.
• 29:48
  Testecleese: I'd love to watch the guys, like, jump in the car and steal.
• 29:51
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, you know, everything's coordinated with the airport security and the air traffic control and stuff like that, and they fly most of the… most of them are getting flown to Arizona. They can get parked out there with the low humidity and not have any damage to them long-term.
• 30:10
  Testecleese: Alright, so they didn't own their aircraft, because that's what got me, is like, if they own their aircraft, you usually have enough time while filing your bankruptcy paperwork to sell the assets.
• 30:19
  Brian McFadden: No, they didn't… I don't think they owned very many assets.
• 30:22
  Testecleese: Alright.
• 30:23
  Testecleese: And these guys get… these guys going full-on 11, not 7, right?
• 30:28
  Brian McFadden: It was their second 11 in, like, a year.
• 30:30
  Testecleese: Ugh!
• 30:31
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 30:33
  Testecleese: Yeah, now no one's… they're… yeah, they got no credit, no one's gonna loan them any money, so obviously that's the end of that. And you know what?
• 30:40
  Testecleese: maybe this is the way it should be, why should we keep bailing out companies that keep failing?
• 30:45
  El Guapo: Yeah, that's what I was thinking, like, just let them… let the market decide, you know?
• 30:50
  Brian McFadden: I flew on them a couple of times down to Florida from Norfolk, and… I mean, it was a flight, you know? It was pretty bare bones, but it got me where I needed to go cheaply, so…
• 31:00
  Testecleese: So, so why did Warren not want… Another airline to buy them.
• 31:04
  Brian McFadden: She said she didn't want a bunch of big airlines.
• 31:08
  Brian McFadden: Blue wanted to merge with them.
• 31:10
  El Guapo: No, yeah, they're like, oh, we don't need monopoly and stuff like that, like, are you a fucking idiot? You know how many airline companies out there? It's not gonna be a monopoly, too, just airline.
• 31:21
  Testecleese: No, and let's be real, Spirit was never a huge airline.
• 31:24
  Brian McFadden: No, it's primarily on the East Coast.
• 31:27
  Testecleese: Yeah, like Brian said, it's like, you fly out of, like, not even Norfolk, you fly out of Newport News.
• 31:32
  Brian McFadden: No, it was out of Norfolk.
• 31:34
  Testecleese: Okay, well, you know what I mean, like, you go out of Newport News, you basically.
• 31:36
  Brian McFadden: But it never… but Norfolk was probably one of the biggest airports it flew into.
• 31:41
  Brian McFadden: You know, because, like, in Orlando, it didn't… did it find the regular airport or another one nearby.
• 31:46
  Testecleese: it probably wasn't, ORL.
• 31:48
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 31:51
  El Guapo: But anyways, now, there's gonna be hap… I know it's gonna happen… what's gonna happen, because usually what happened is, I was in a bar over here, and they close the shitty bar, all the fucking shitty people come to my bar, like…
• 32:05
  El Guapo: Damn, my fucking bar's infected by all these cheating people, you know?
• 32:11
  Testecleese: That, yeah.
• 32:11
  El Guapo: That's when I happened with the airlines, all these fucking people are gonna jump into Breezy.
• 32:16
  Testecleese: Well, that's why when you get into, like, the cities, that's why you need to see the occasional dive bar for the shitty people to go there instead and start fights. And that's why when you get out in the rural areas, you get, like, to the tough biker bars, where if you're not on, like, a specific type of motorcycle, you don't even bother going in. It's like, let those guys congregate together over there, and the rest of polite society will go over here and have some french fries, some chicken wings.
• 32:39
  Testecleese: watch the game and have a beer, you know? Yeah.
• 32:42
  Brian McFadden: So here's your chance, Ray, to, find love.
• 32:44
  El Guapo: Oh god, here we go.
• 32:46
  Testecleese: Oh, by the way… Hamptons Roadster!
• 32:48
  Brian McFadden: It's own dating show for Virginia singles.
• 32:53
  Testecleese: Oh, do you know how bad this is gonna make the Navy look?
• 32:55
  El Guapo: Oh my god…
• 32:57
  Testecleese: You know how many sailors are gonna be on this stupid show being complete drunk assholes?
• 33:05
  Testecleese: I just wanna bust Ray's nuts a little bit here, guapo's nuts.
• 33:08
  El Guapo: was.
• 33:10
  Testecleese: Dude, I gave you, like, 6 hours notice I was coming to frickin' the area to come drink some beers with you, and then you went out split-tail huntin'.
• 33:16
  El Guapo: Oh, yeah, of course.
• 33:17
  Testecleese: And then it turns out on the weekends, my fucking mug club discount doesn't apply.
• 33:24
  Testecleese: I was so excited about Happy Hour Price.
• 33:26
  Brian McFadden: You got a… you still got a dollar off.
• 33:28
  Testecleese: A dollar off, yes. And then, I meant to bring my mug with me.
• 33:32
  Testecleese: Because if I was gonna travel and stumble across another green turtle, it'll work there.
• 33:36
  Brian McFadden: And Ray, your plug number at Green Turtle, if you go there drinking, is 328.
• 33:41
  El Guapo: Okay.
• 33:42
  Testecleese: Oh, wow, you were way after me, huh?
• 33:44
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 33:45
  Testecleese: I say that was probably, like, 2 hours later.
• 33:50
  Brian McFadden: My mug is still there, so… I'll be there in July to use it, so…
• 33:54
  Testecleese: The woman who worked there looked at her, she's like, your mug's actually hanging up over here? And I was like, yeah, it's got the Red Sox sticker on, it's mug 98. She's like, holy crap, that's a low number!
• 34:05
  Testecleese: Yeah, I think I paid, like, 30 or 35 bucks for that mug.
• 34:09
  Testecleese: And the dude who worked there had to convince me you could fit a full pint in that thing.
• 34:14
  Brian McFadden: Oh yeah, I was there that day when they did that, yeah.
• 34:17
  Testecleese: the whole pint up, then poured it into the mug, and I was like, I'll be damned!
• 34:21
  Brian McFadden: Cause it doesn't look like it.
• 34:22
  Testecleese: Does not look good.
• 34:24
  El Guapo: Alright.
• 34:26
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 34:28
  Testecleese: So yeah, exactly, here's Wapo's chance to go on a dating show and play Rico Suave.
• 34:33
  Brian McFadden: That's right.
• 34:34
  El Guapo: out on the.
• 34:35
  Testecleese: Is this gonna be broadcast nationwide, or is it just gonna be in the local area?
• 34:38
  Brian McFadden: I think it's a brand broadcast local wide.
• 34:41
  Testecleese: shit.
• 34:43
  El Guapo: Globally.
• 34:43
  Testecleese: If you or anyone you know is on this show, you need to let me know so I can make sure to watch it.
• 34:47
  El Guapo: Alright, I don't know where it's gonna… I don't got cable, so I don't know what channel it's gonna be on.
• 34:51
  Brian McFadden: Let me read the article here.
• 34:53
  El Guapo: Oh, God. Dude. Yeah.
• 34:55
  Testecleese: Let's be real, cable's disappearing.
• 34:57
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 34:58
  Testecleese: It's convenient, but I mean, I pay a little less than I would for cable, and I got all these streaming services, so it's on demand instead, you know?
• 35:06
  El Guapo: Dude, you know what you need to download? The channel Tubi?
• 35:11
  Testecleese: Yeah, I got 2V.
• 35:12
  El Guapo: Okay, you got to be.
• 35:14
  Testecleese: That one's… that one's free.
• 35:15
  El Guapo: Yeah, you can watch commercials, of course, but… Yeah.
• 35:18
  Testecleese: Just like the History Channel, and a couple others that are free that you gotta watch commercials.
• 35:23
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 35:24
  Testecleese: History Channel, I'm getting bored, man. They haven't done anything new and exciting in a while.
• 35:28
  Brian McFadden: They don't even have Pawn Stars anymore.
• 35:32
  El Guapo: They're okay.
• 35:33
  Testecleese: They keep dying and going to prison.
• 35:37
  Testecleese: Yeah, I think… I don't think they're doing forged and Fire.
• 35:39
  El Guapo: I know.
• 35:42
  Testecleese: One of them died, and then another one went to prison, then the grandfather died.
• 35:46
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 35:47
  Testecleese: Yeah, Chumley, I think, is in prison.
• 35:49
  El Guapo: Yeah, I kinda figured he gotta go into prison for something.
• 35:53
  Testecleese: Don't know why that show was so entertaining, but you just couldn't shut it off, could ya?
• 35:57
  El Guapo: I'm talking about history and stuff.
• 36:01
  Testecleese: Yeah, I mean, yeah.
• 36:02
  Testecleese: Alright, this is interesting here.
• 36:06
  Testecleese: a trans substitute teacher, 19-year-olds, which I found very interesting.
• 36:13
  Testecleese: I didn't realize you could be a substitute teacher without a college degree.
• 36:17
  Brian McFadden: It just hasn't had so many credits.
• 36:20
  Testecleese: Oh, okay, maybe.
• 36:22
  Testecleese: But was plotting a murder spree at a Virginia school.
• 36:28
  El Guapo: Mmm.
• 36:29
  Testecleese: Once again, these trans folk, Or accusing everyone else of all this crazy shit, but…
• 36:34
  El Guapo: You… every…
• 36:35
  Testecleese: What, the last… Dozen mass shootings we've seen have been conducted by a trans person.
• 36:42
  El Guapo: Yeah, this is not the… okay, this is not the old folks that tramps that just before they became trendy, this is, like, the new age trance kids and stuff, doing all this stuff.
• 36:51
  Testecleese: Well, yeah, God knows what they mean by trans now. They might be mean… they call themselves two-spirited. I found out from Claire on this show that, basically, it's like a Native American.
• 37:00
  El Guapo: No, it's okay, no, no. This shit, the Native American thing, probably just wants to happen, and they want to fucking blanket everybody through that.
• 37:08
  El Guapo: You know, because what…
• 37:09
  Testecleese: Isn't that cultural appropriation?
• 37:11
  El Guapo: No, no, no, but this two-spirit thing, probably is just one Native America.
• 37:15
  Testecleese: There's probably one group that did the Spirit Guides, yeah.
• 37:17
  El Guapo: Yeah, and they want to blackhead everybody. Oh, the Native Americans did it? Like, no, this probably won't thrive. I don't a fucking thousand of them.
• 37:25
  Testecleese: That's the thing a lot of people don't realize, is it wasn't a unified nation of a similar people.
• 37:29
  El Guapo: No.
• 37:30
  Testecleese: when it was native Trump.
• 37:31
  El Guapo: I hated each other.
• 37:33
  Testecleese: Yeah, some of them could coexist, but there were plenty of wars. You're like, oh, you took the land from the natives, which natives?
• 37:38
  El Guapo: took…
• 37:39
  Testecleese: did I take this land from? And, okay, who did they take it from?
• 37:42
  Testecleese: Who did they take it from? Who did they take it from?
• 37:46
  Testecleese: Of course, if you live in Canada, the king apparently can just turn land over to the natives.
• 37:52
  Testecleese: Which I found interesting, because, what, was it, they said, like, 200 years ago, our ancestors used to come fishing here in the summer.
• 37:59
  Testecleese: So, like, okay, it's your land now, so now everyone who lives there is paying their mortgages, or whatever, their property fees, to the native tribe.
• 38:09
  Testecleese: And I'd just like to point out that the natives are no better than anyone else when it comes to money management, because
• 38:14
  Testecleese: They have the worst drug and alcohol problems. But, seriously, what is more lucrative in this country than an Indian casino?
• 38:25
  Testecleese: Nothing. Nothing makes more money.
• 38:27
  Testecleese: But everyone's still poor and can't eat.
• 38:30
  Testecleese: You know?
• 38:31
  Testecleese: So, I mean, these people are just as corrupt as everyone else. Don't… don't paint them as this noble savage.
• 38:40
  Testecleese: I have no idea what you… oh, there, she did see me, okay!
• 38:44
  Testecleese: I didn't think she saw me.
• 38:46
  Testecleese: I figured you had some other thing up on your screen.
• 38:50
  Testecleese: Okay, who's Senator Kaine?
• 38:53
  Brian McFadden: He's a Virginia senator.
• 38:54
  El Guapo: Keep carrying.
• 38:55
  Testecleese: Yeah, and Warren… I thought so, and Kane… Yeah, Warren is… Warren Kane.
• 38:59
  El Guapo: Okay.
• 39:00
  Brian McFadden: Both senators.
• 39:01
  Testecleese: Yeah, is this Elizabeth Warren or Virginia?
• 39:03
  Brian McFadden: No, this is… no, this is a different Warren.
• 39:07
  Testecleese: She's… these two are trying to…
• 39:09
  El Guapo: Enemy.
• 39:11
  Testecleese: make Virginia's gun control a nationwide thing?
• 39:15
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, well, they're gonna have problems because,
• 39:18
  Testecleese: The Supreme Court's been shutting all that shit down.
• 39:20
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, and it's already… they…
• 39:22
  Brian McFadden: Spanberg just signed laws into place to ban weapons on campuses, and the NRA's already filed lawsuits against it.
• 39:32
  Testecleese: Because the campuses are public ground and you can't do that?
• 39:36
  Brian McFadden: I don't know, but, you know…
• 39:37
  El Guapo: Yeah, this is something else, the… they want to ban weapons in general, so that's why they're going after.
• 39:45
  Testecleese: It wasn't funny. We were in Newport News, right next to Fort Useless.
• 39:51
  Testecleese: My older daughter just kept running off, and I was like, you have to stop. She's like, I'm just playing! I'm like, no!
• 39:57
  Brian McFadden: You don't.
• 39:57
  Testecleese: I don't know where you are anymore. You're not on a mountaintop in West Virginia where everything's fine and safe. People steal children here. They run them over with their cars and take off. They shoot out their windows and drive, and just keep driving. This is a real probe here in Virginia. And now they're gonna… now they're trying to say you shouldn't be able to, like.
• 40:13
  Testecleese: Defend yourself as you just get shot at?
• 40:15
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 40:17
  Testecleese: That sounds pretty dumb to me.
• 40:20
  Testecleese: But the Supreme Court's even gonna shut down what they're doing in Virginia, aren't they? The SCOTUS?
• 40:24
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, I think so.
• 40:26
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 40:27
  Brian McFadden: They… they shot down the redistricting effort.
• 40:31
  El Guapo: Yep.
• 40:32
  Brian McFadden: Which was always a long shot from the get-go that,
• 40:36
  Brian McFadden: that, that was going to get approved to be heard by the Supreme Court, because typically the Supreme Court does not like dealing with states' rights. If it's in the state's constitution, they let the state's Supreme Court deal with it.
• 40:49
  Testecleese: Yes, but the Second Amendment is federal, so, like, there's not much wiggle room here.
• 40:55
  Brian McFadden: Oh, I see, the next category is all about Virginia.
• 40:59
  Testecleese: and mouse.
• 41:00
  Testecleese: Yeah, well, not all about it. There's, Alabama and Florida in there, too. But one of your state senators over there in Virginia just got raided at.
• 41:08
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, back in Hampton Roads, man, Portsmouth, baby, Portsmouth!
• 41:14
  Brian McFadden: She's saying it's Trump after her.
• 41:20
  Brian McFadden: They're… it's COVID, it's fraud. They're rating them about fraud.
• 41:28
  El Guapo: Whoa.
• 41:30
  Brian McFadden: Am I the only one here?
• 41:31
  El Guapo: No, are you here? Can you hear me? Okay.
• 41:33
  Brian McFadden: What's going on in Portsmouth? You remember?
• 41:37
  El Guapo: with her, Lucas?
• 41:38
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, yeah.
• 41:39
  El Guapo: So, they're right here in the morning.
• 41:42
  El Guapo: Nobody's defended her, like, you see now, everybody got quiet, like.
• 41:47
  El Guapo: They kind of knew, you know, like, this was coming one day.
• 41:50
  El Guapo: So, they don't know why they wanna… they're after her because of the weed.
• 41:56
  El Guapo: She, like, she got those, weed shops, but it's, the THC, something about it there, like, she's selling some illegal stuff.
• 42:05
  El Guapo: I think she got a heads up because they arrested her business partner.
• 42:09
  El Guapo: So… I think she got a heads up about it, but other than that, nobody's.
• 42:14
  Testecleese: She's throwing a shit fit about how this is, like, political prosecution and targeting and stuff, and it's like…
• 42:21
  Testecleese: How many vape shops did Virginia just blow up for selling pot out of them, you know?
• 42:27
  Brian McFadden: They all do it.
• 42:27
  El Guapo: Yeah, but she's the only one, and you look at, Spanberger, probably Team Kane or whatever just offended her, but Spanberger's not defending her. She's pissed up at her, because she pushed the fucking 10-1 referendum, she kinda knew it was gonna backfire.
• 42:44
  El Guapo: So now, this shit blow up on their face, and now they gotta fuckin'…
• 42:48
  El Guapo: two-bullet misspelled fucking Jones going out, you know, pursuing this shit. So, yeah, it's a shitshow right now. And right now, we had, like, 54 days since they took over, the Democrats here in Virginia, and they haven't balanced the budget yet.
• 43:07
  Testecleese: I, bought a bottle of,
• 43:10
  Testecleese: Gun K, Bahaman Aged Rum in the Bahamas.
• 43:15
  Brian McFadden: Yep, I probably had the same kind of run when I was there back in the day.
• 43:18
  Testecleese: It says Navy Rum on it.
• 43:20
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 43:22
  Testecleese: Holy crap, this shit kicks like a mule right in the f-
• 43:25
  Testecleese: She told me this is a good sit-down-and-sip-it rum, and I was like…
• 43:28
  Testecleese: Holy crap, it kicks out of the now…
• 43:31
  Brian McFadden: But you didn't sip it!
• 43:33
  El Guapo: Yeah, he kicked you.
• 43:34
  Brian McFadden: You chugged it?
• 43:36
  Testecleese: Oh, I got it right here in a glass with ice in it. I just opened the bottle, like…
• 43:40
  Testecleese: 12 seconds.
• 43:41
  Brian McFadden: Maybe you're not drunk enough yet.
• 43:43
  Testecleese: Ugh! But yeah, usually I can handle blues, man, like…
• 43:46
  Testecleese: You know what, I was drinking a lot of whiskey instead on the ship, too.
• 43:51
  El Guapo: Rum is lighter than whiskey. It's just straighter.
• 43:55
  Testecleese: That should be sweeter.
• 43:56
  Testecleese: It just tastes like fire.
• 43:59
  Testecleese: This is stuff you cannot get in the States, and apparently, their big claim to fame… oh, crap.
• 44:05
  Testecleese: The big claim to fame is that they, were smuggling rum into the States in the 20s.
• 44:13
  Testecleese: Alright.
• 44:15
  Testecleese: This is interesting, I thought, at least. A Nigerian man has been arrested for about $1.3 million in a romance scheme targeting Norfolk City accounts.
• 44:24
  Testecleese: And Ray thought…
• 44:26
  Brian McFadden: They stopped it, they didn't go after the women.
• 44:28
  El Guapo: Yep.
• 44:30
  El Guapo: What do you mean?
• 44:31
  El Guapo: You fell for this, you paid for this, and it's… you were embezzling money.
• 44:35
  El Guapo: And how you gonna get, like…
• 44:38
  El Guapo: You just wanna walk off with nothing?
• 44:42
  El Guapo: Like, you pay somebody for romance money, shouldn't you be arrested because you paid for it? Not just go.
• 44:47
  Testecleese: What's romance money?
• 44:49
  Brian McFadden: Sugar Day!
• 44:51
  Testecleese: What's wrong with the sugar, daddy, and why are you being…
• 44:54
  El Guapo: Okay, but she was using city treasury money.
• 44:57
  Testecleese: See, that's different.
• 45:00
  Testecleese: So wait, who did this then?
• 45:02
  El Guapo: The city of Norfolk…
• 45:03
  Testecleese: Citi accounts.
• 45:04
  El Guapo: Yeah, city accounts.
• 45:06
  El Guapo: This is why, like, I'm certainly not going after the woman to fail for this. Hold on, give me a sec.
• 45:10
  Testecleese: Oh, you're right, the person who
• 45:11
  Testecleese: dished out this money should be, facing charges for stealing from the people, right?
• 45:16
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 45:17
  Testecleese: I did not realize that, alright.
• 45:18
  Brian McFadden: I didn't… I didn't read that far into the article to realize that was what's going on. I just knew Ray had a very strongly worded opinion about it.
• 45:29
  Testecleese: Alright.
• 45:30
  Brian McFadden: Alright, let's move on to maps.
• 45:32
  Testecleese: Yeah, that, Pinchy the Lobster got shut down by the Supreme Court.
• 45:39
  Testecleese: Oh, Virginia.
• 45:41
  Brian McFadden: Nope. I had it… I suspected it would, because the way… because in the Constitution, it says, if you want to change.
• 45:49
  Testecleese: 90 days, right?
• 45:50
  Brian McFadden: No, no, it's gotta… they… it's gotta be brought up in two different…
• 45:56
  Brian McFadden: Legislative sessions.
• 45:59
  Brian McFadden: And how they tried to do it was, they called the Congress back in a special session.
• 46:05
  Brian McFadden: To call that its own legislative session.
• 46:09
  Brian McFadden: So they violated the Constitution of Virginia to push this thing through.
• 46:16
  Brian McFadden: Now, why the Virginia Supreme Court didn't step in before the Democrats spent $70 billion of Virginia taxpayers' money on this special election, I have no idea.
• 46:29
  Testecleese: It wasn't… because it wasn't an issue until Virginia tried to actually do something with it. They have every authority to spend money stupidly
• 46:38
  Testecleese: the Supreme Court can't stop that. And I gotta say, it was hilarious watching the reactions of people flipping out, like, well, only the Democrats can't do it. It's like, it… see, here's the problem, is you guys don't know how voting works.
• 46:50
  Brian McFadden: Yeah. And then you got… and then you got people outside of Virginia, like Jefferies, you know, the Democrat minority leader, saying, oh, well, we should go ahead and remove all of the judges on this Virginia Supreme Court.
• 47:07
  Testecleese: They always talk about reducing the retirement age and replacing everyone.
• 47:11
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 47:12
  Testecleese: And I was like, what the fuck?
• 47:13
  El Guapo: And the.
• 47:14
  Testecleese: The crazy thing is, when this was put into place, they're… the way they do… this new map they put in place, and the rules they did about changing it.
• 47:21
  Testecleese: was done, I believe, in 2020, which would have been under Governor Blackface, right?
• 47:26
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 47:27
  Testecleese: So the Democrats put a policy in place that, once again, bit them in the ass. Right. And now they're pissed off and saying everyone else is to blame except for us, once again.
• 47:37
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, and then they,
• 47:38
  Brian McFadden: And then they got all mad that… and the hilarious thing was that, the new Attorney General of Virginia, I'm…
• 47:46
  Testecleese: Jay Jones. Yes.
• 47:48
  Brian McFadden: They didn't even spell check their petition to the U.S. Supreme Court.
• 47:54
  Testecleese: Yeah, Virginia and Senate already misspelled, right?
• 47:56
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 47:57
  El Guapo: Virginia.
• 47:59
  Testecleese: Yeah, Virginia?
• 48:00
  El Guapo: Burgundy.
• 48:01
  Testecleese: Yeah, Vaige.
• 48:02
  Brian McFadden: Perhaps.
• 48:02
  Testecleese: I don'.
• 48:03
  Brian McFadden: Perhaps you shouldn't be the Attorney General of a state you can't spell.
• 48:06
  El Guapo: Oh, I sent it to the wrong place.
• 48:10
  Brian McFadden: They sent it to the wrong court, too.
• 48:11
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 48:12
  Testecleese: Yeah, I sent it to the wrong place, too. And it's like, this is your… your top cop in your state.
• 48:17
  Testecleese: we should kill people to believe us, who can't spell his own state, sends this stuff to the wrong court. Dear God, if someone murders your family, he's gonna send your shit off to a family court, and it's gonna get thrown out.
• 48:33
  El Guapo: God, this is my fuckin' DEI, dude.
• 48:36
  Testecleese: Yeah, but this is the guy who wanted to kill two people, to get everyone to believe him, and I don't know, did you guys see the video of him trying to kick the dog, but he missed?
• 48:43
  El Guapo: Oh, yeah, yeah.
• 48:44
  Testecleese: Like a little lap dog, he tried to, like, kick it out of its way, and the dog dodged out of the way. I was like, not only you were an asshole enough to kick a dog, mind its own business, you sucked so much, you missed!
• 48:53
  El Guapo: That's why I got two bullets, Jones. Oh, my go- that's… I just don't understand.
• 49:01
  Testecleese: I could almost understand Spanberger, because she promised something different than she's delivering, but this guy was out there, what he was into before he was elected.
• 49:09
  El Guapo: She's being pressured by Lucas, that's why all of this shit…
• 49:13
  El Guapo: It's going on. She's just being pressured. Lucas, the one that got arrested?
• 49:19
  Testecleese: Oh, the senator?
• 49:20
  Brian McFadden: I don't think she got arrested, I think…
• 49:22
  El Guapo: Well, no, she investigated, sorry. This is what she… and nobody's defending her. That's why she… you don't see nothing frozen burger, because she's pissed off at her.
• 49:32
  El Guapo: You know, she got pressured by Lucas, and
• 49:35
  El Guapo: the Speaker of the House in here in Virginia to push all this fucking crazy stuff.
• 49:41
  El Guapo: And they're getting pissed off at her because she rejected most of it.
• 49:45
  El Guapo: And, like, you saw that she rejected the… the…
• 49:50
  El Guapo: One of the bills about fuckin',
• 49:53
  El Guapo: You can, organize, basically, a union bill.
• 49:58
  El Guapo: And she's like, okay, can this take effect after she leave office?
• 50:02
  Brian McFadden: Oh, yeah, they wanted to… they wanted to unionize public workers in the state of Virginia.
• 50:06
  El Guapo: And they're like, no, no, no, we need to do this now, and she's like, Beatle, because she, she…
• 50:12
  Brian McFadden: Sam Brewer doesn't want to have her name on it.
• 50:16
  Brian McFadden: Finally realizing she's… Already went too far crazy anyway.
• 50:21
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 50:21
  Testecleese: Well, Donnie has finally realized there's no money to pay for his program, so you see what he's doing? He's done to.
• 50:27
  El Guapo: New York.
• 50:28
  Testecleese: Yeah, in New York to, to pay for these programs?
• 50:31
  El Guapo: What was she? I don't know what she did, I forgot.
• 50:34
  Testecleese: He's deferring, like, retirement funds.
• 50:38
  El Guapo: That's a bad idea.
• 50:39
  Testecleese: for city employees. So, basically, what you're saying is.
• 50:42
  Testecleese: In a couple years, when I'm out of office, the next guy's gonna have to figure out how to pay for all this shit.
• 50:47
  Testecleese: doing now.
• 50:48
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 50:48
  Testecleese: Because all these people aren't gonna get paid if, you know, so…
• 50:51
  El Guapo: I don't think you're gonna run for re-election for this.
• 50:54
  Testecleese: he gets to point at someone else and say, it's their fault, not mine, I had to work, and meanwhile, no one was getting retirement checks for spending 30 years working for the,
• 51:02
  El Guapo: Okay, you know what? There should not be a retirement if you work for the government.
• 51:06
  El Guapo: Honestly, like, unless you're military, firefighter, it's top.
• 51:10
  Testecleese: Just have a 401K.
• 51:11
  El Guapo: Yeah, yeah, that's okay, but…
• 51:14
  Brian McFadden: That's not what all these government employees have, though.
• 51:16
  El Guapo: The guy.
• 51:17
  Brian McFadden: They all have… they all have…
• 51:19
  El Guapo: Don't work on benches, though.
• 51:21
  Brian McFadden: I just recently did, you know, now that you're in the Navy, in the military, you can get into TSP, which is a 401K, and you can divide it up, you know, you don't get it all as a pension like I do. So you're relying on the stock market, you know, to do what it's supposed to do.
• 51:38
  El Guapo: No.
• 51:39
  Testecleese: Well, I know… I know, Minnesota.
• 51:42
  Testecleese: is using a 401K, because…
• 51:44
  Testecleese: when, Tim Walz made a big deal about people fucking up Tesla cars, and they shut down a Tesla plant in Minnesota, he's like, good, we drove them out! And it's like, yeah, a third of your, government 401K pensions.
• 51:56
  Brian McFadden: Fantastic.
• 51:57
  Testecleese: Tesla. Yeah, it's like, good job, you just boned everyone who's ever worked for your estate.
• 52:02
  Testecleese: And I love when I hear these folks are like, Texas started it, Virginia's just trying to finish it up. It's like, first of all, Texas didn't break their own laws.
• 52:11
  El Guapo: care about what Texas do, like, worry about fucking Virginia, you know?
• 52:15
  Testecleese: Well.
• 52:15
  Brian McFadden: He was a…
• 52:15
  Testecleese: started it. Let's look at New England.
• 52:17
  El Guapo: I know.
• 52:18
  Brian McFadden: New England started years ago, and nobody cared.
• 52:21
  Testecleese: The whole area is 100% blue for representation.
• 52:26
  Brian McFadden: Maine, I think, has one little red dot, doesn't it?
• 52:29
  Testecleese: Yeah, but they didn't actually elect a Republican.
• 52:32
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 52:33
  Testecleese: Do any, like, anything besides, like, a, you know, a town hall, or a small city thing.
• 52:38
  Brian McFadden: Well, Alabama, they changed their new maps during… while a tornado was coming through town.
• 52:44
  El Guapo: I know, I saw that shit.
• 52:45
  Testecleese: Yeah, there was… the sirens are going off, like, get underground, and they're like, hold on, we need to finish this boat, because the Dems will fuck it up if we don't.
• 52:52
  Brian McFadden: They probably think the Dems activated the tornado sirens to do with that.
• 52:58
  Testecleese: Who's the dude in federal that, pulled the fire alarm?
• 53:02
  Brian McFadden: Oh, he's not in office anymore. I know who you're talking about. We've talked about it on the show.
• 53:06
  Testecleese: Yeah, he took the sign down, then opened the fire emergency door.
• 53:09
  Brian McFadden: Set the alarm on.
• 53:10
  Testecleese: It's like.
• 53:11
  Brian McFadden: Delay the vote.
• 53:12
  Testecleese: in the middle of a vote, and like, oh, that was just stupidness.
• 53:16
  Brian McFadden: No, it was deliberate.
• 53:18
  Testecleese: But that's the thing, is these people would rather…
• 53:20
  Testecleese: Appear stupid, then admit that they could be wrong.
• 53:24
  Testecleese: And it's like, this isn't helping your arguments. I hope you realize that.
• 53:28
  Brian McFadden: And I don't think DeSantis was really planning on changing the Flora congressional map until the election happened in Virginia, where it looked like it was going to be 10 to 1 representation.
• 53:41
  Testecleese: From 6 to 5.
• 53:43
  Brian McFadden: I mean, if you look at how it got voted.
• 53:46
  Testecleese: That's.
• 53:47
  Brian McFadden: 6-5 is the way it should be divided up, you know, they won it by less than 2 points.
• 53:52
  Testecleese: That's the thing, is Virginia's actually the fairest congressional map in this country right now.
• 53:57
  El Guapo: I bought it for this shit back in 2000. Yeah.
• 54:00
  Testecleese: Was it 2000? I thought it was.
• 54:01
  Brian McFadden: There's an independent commission that creates our bill.
• 54:03
  El Guapo: 1.25.
• 54:04
  Brian McFadden: the maps in Virginia.
• 54:05
  Testecleese: Yeah, exactly, it's a third party.
• 54:08
  El Guapo: Yeah, the Supreme Court's the one that proved it.
• 54:11
  Testecleese: Now, this is something that we had brought up, too, was that,
• 54:15
  Testecleese: all these blue states threaten to do the same thing. It's like, you guys have already maxed out.
• 54:20
  Brian McFadden: You've already done it! You can't do it anymore!
• 54:22
  Testecleese: It's like, Massachusetts threatened. I was like, what, you might accidentally get a single Republican if you change your maps at this point, so you guys are just full of shit. Yeah. And it's like, as soon as some of these blue states try to do this, a handful of Republican states are gonna do it, and they're gonna get… Florida's looking to net 4 seats?
• 54:38
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 54:39
  Testecleese: Fuckin'… it looks like the Republicans are gonna take the f- are gonna keep the house.
• 54:44
  Brian McFadden: It looked like they were gonna lose the house at the beginning of the midterms. That's normally what happens in the midterms.
• 54:50
  Testecleese: Oh, that's…
• 54:50
  Brian McFadden: The party in charge loses, you know, loses majority.
• 54:56
  Brian McFadden: The presidential party.
• 54:59
  Testecleese: E.
• 55:00
  Testecleese: Alright.
• 55:02
  Testecleese: Someone else tried to kill Trump.
• 55:05
  Testecleese: So, once again, I keep hearing, it's great, too, you hear them? Well, we condemn all this violence, but you gotta look out for the right wing, they're super violent, like, you say that, like, every third day?
• 55:15
  Testecleese: But you can't point at any of these actual, quote, Republicans. When was the last time someone tried to shoot Obama or Biden? Or Warren, for that matter?
• 55:24
  Brian McFadden: Never.
• 55:26
  Testecleese: Never happened.
• 55:29
  Testecleese: How many people are still cheering for Luigi Mangione?
• 55:33
  Brian McFadden: A lot.
• 55:34
  Testecleese: And by the way, didn't some employee for that company just come out and, like, say that we should shoot these people? And it's like, did you realize that was your CEO that got killed for exactly this?
• 55:46
  Testecleese: Oh, my God.
• 55:47
  Testecleese: Just like with the Mom Donnie thing, when he blew up,
• 55:51
  Testecleese: Ken Griffin in New York.
• 55:54
  Testecleese: The billionaire?
• 55:57
  Testecleese: Griffin was like, the dude put out my home address and said, this is the enemy. And it's like, it's, like, two city blocks from where I live, where the UnitedHealthcare CEO was murdered.
• 56:07
  Testecleese: for being wealthy.
• 56:10
  Testecleese: So, yeah, Mom Donnie's trying to schedule a meeting with him.
• 56:13
  Testecleese: to, like, to keep them in the state, and he's like, I'm leaving. He's like, I already left Chicago because of shit like this, I'm going somewhere else, I'm gonna bring my money with me, and I'll create all those jobs there instead, and good luck in New York City, trying to pay for your programs.
• 56:27
  Testecleese: But anyway, the suspect's in custody,
• 56:30
  Testecleese: It was at the Correspondence Dinner, right? Yeah.
• 56:34
  Brian McFadden: I thought we talked about this, but maybe not.
• 56:36
  Testecleese: I thought we did, too, because I remember saying something about how one of the reporters
• 56:40
  Testecleese: Turned her phone on, flipped the camera around to face at her to record herself.
• 56:44
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 56:44
  Testecleese: about the shooting that was going on, instead of being a fucking reporter, and recording what's going on and putting it up for the people.
• 56:51
  El Guapo: Hmm.
• 56:51
  Testecleese: And that's to let you know that our…
• 56:54
  Testecleese: our friggin' media now, that's even going to the White House Correspondents' Dinner.
• 56:58
  Testecleese: Are social media influencers, not reporters.
• 57:03
  Testecleese: It's ridiculous.
• 57:06
  Brian McFadden: Well…
• 57:06
  Testecleese: As a reporter, you'd want to catch the story, it's not your reaction to what's happening, right?
• 57:11
  Brian McFadden: And then you got people on TikTok that are saying that, you know, they're joking about it, saying, oh, they missed, again, you know?
• 57:19
  Testecleese: Yeah, well, one dude just got a…
• 57:22
  Testecleese: One dude who just refused access into the country because his girlfriend…
• 57:27
  Testecleese: Came out and was like, so when are you Americans actually gonna, you know, makes a handgun sick fit?
• 57:32
  Testecleese: gesture, you know, actually do it. Like, you keep missing out, you know, you guys kill each other all the time, when are you actually gonna do it? He's like, yeah, okay, no one knows what she's talking about, right?
• 57:42
  Brian McFadden: And then, we still got federal judges apologizing to Trump, assassination suspects over the jail.
• 57:51
  Testecleese: Yeah, I don't understand.
• 57:55
  Testecleese: What was the apology for? Like, for going to jail? For trying to kill people?
• 57:59
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, I think so.
• 58:02
  Brian McFadden: What's going on? It's all about… he apologizes to alleged would-be Trump assassin, then drags January 6th suspects
• 58:08
  Brian McFadden: Into a rant over jail complaint. So, the guy didn't like the quality of the jail.
• 58:14
  Testecleese: Oh! So, is this the same jail that, like you said, the J6 guys were held in in solitary confinement for 2 years without a trial?
• 58:22
  Brian McFadden: Probably. It's in the DC area.
• 58:25
  Testecleese: Maybe…
• 58:26
  Testecleese: Maybe that has something to do with the reason why they all got… a bunch of them got pardoned.
• 58:32
  Brian McFadden: Well, we said that all those charges were overblown when it was all going down, so…
• 58:37
  Testecleese: Yeah, they tried it, they hit it with insurrection, it's like, you're out of your mind. Speaking of insurrection, do you see what just happened in Tennessee?
• 58:43
  Brian McFadden: No.
• 58:45
  Testecleese: It was, I think it was another… con- congressional map.
• 58:49
  El Guapo: thing.
• 58:50
  Testecleese: But the Democrats, took over the floor, had noisemakers, air horns.
• 58:57
  El Guapo: Oh, yeah, intense.
• 58:58
  Testecleese: Thrown temper tantrums, like, children.
• 59:00
  Testecleese: Screaming, some of them crying. One dude started a fucking fire!
• 59:06
  Testecleese: And I was like.
• 59:08
  Testecleese: And this was to disrupt the vote. I was like, these people should all go to prison. They all got letters of reprimand. Leave it to the Republicans to use a strongly worded letter when a police officer's.
• 59:18
  El Guapo: Yeah, the laws.
• 59:19
  Testecleese: handcuffs.
• 59:20
  El Guapo: The last of the, all the,
• 59:23
  El Guapo: The church, the commission… what is… not the commissioner, the guy that was,
• 59:28
  El Guapo: They got their little mini… I mean, what's the name of the… assignments…
• 59:34
  Brian McFadden: They're chairmanships?
• 59:35
  El Guapo: Yeah, the chairmanships and stuff like that. They got kicked out, all of that.
• 59:38
  Brian McFadden: Committee, committees, society?
• 59:40
  Testecleese: Yeah, yeah, they got kicked off of all the committees. Yeah. That's right. Something actually did happen. Every single one of them got kicked off of every committee.
• 59:46
  El Guapo: Yep.
• 59:48
  Testecleese: And something I want to bring up, I think it's down here under voters, yeah, I'm gonna move voters…
• 59:53
  Testecleese: To, up underneath the map before we move on.
• 59:56
  El Guapo: Alright.
• 59:58
  El Guapo: YOL.
• 59:59
  Testecleese: I'm gonna put it under maps, because that's where it should be, even though we already started the…
• 1:00:04
  El Guapo: Attempted assassination thing.
• 1:00:07
  Testecleese: Where is it?
• 1:00:11
  Brian McFadden: It's on your rotor. It's on your maps, it's up top.
• 1:00:13
  Testecleese: I know, not that, I thought it was a different article in here.
• 1:00:18
  El Guapo: The New York… yeah.
• 1:00:19
  Testecleese: That's weird, that's okay. I don't know what…
• 1:00:22
  Testecleese: Now, I put it between the word maps and… Whatever, doesn't matter.
• 1:00:26
  Testecleese: New Jersey candidate for mayor has pled guilty to, forging 1,000 voter registrations.
• 1:00:33
  Brian McFadden: This is a mayoral candidate, so.
• 1:00:36
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 1:00:36
  Brian McFadden: That's probably enough to get him on the ballot.
• 1:00:39
  Testecleese: Well, pleading guilty means you're probably going to prison, or at least can't run again, but who knows, New Jersey. But the thing is, we keep hearing this shit doesn't happen, and these stories keep coming out, just like these, 600 ballots for the redistricting election in California never got counted.
• 1:00:54
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:00:56
  Testecleese: Yeah, it's like, huh? Whoops!
• 1:00:57
  Brian McFadden: I wonder which way they voted.
• 1:00:59
  Testecleese: Was it, was it Virginia?
• 1:01:01
  Testecleese: One of these states found.
• 1:01:03
  El Guapo: like…
• 1:01:05
  Testecleese: 20,000 votes after the election was closed for, like, 6 hours.
• 1:01:09
  Testecleese: For president, I don't remember where it was.
• 1:01:12
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:01:16
  Testecleese: Oh, yeah, California's trying to do a vote to, basically stop an all-GOP primary.
• 1:01:24
  Brian McFadden: Wow, they created this whole circus when they went ranked choice voting.
• 1:01:28
  Testecleese: Exactly what we were just saying, is how the Democrats put policies in place
• 1:01:33
  Testecleese: That they think is gonna benefit them forever, but it's only short-term.
• 1:01:37
  Brian McFadden: And we talked about this whole ranked choice voting, and California in general on a previous episode.
• 1:01:42
  El Guapo: Apparently, Virginia wanna start doing that now.
• 1:01:47
  Brian McFadden: They've already agreed to it, we're… we're gonna be part of the, the popular… the elect… whoever everybody votes.
• 1:01:52
  El Guapo: No.
• 1:01:53
  Brian McFadden: popular vote, we're gonna give our Electoral college votes to it.
• 1:01:55
  El Guapo: The rent truck boating.
• 1:01:58
  Testecleese: Well, here's the problem, is that a lot of Dems don't realize, is there are more Republicans in this country that don't vote than there are Democrats that don't vote.
• 1:02:08
  El Guapo: Yep.
• 1:02:10
  Testecleese: And if it comes down to it, these people will show up in rural Virginia.
• 1:02:15
  Testecleese: get off their farm for a couple hours when, let's be real, election season's usually either
• 1:02:21
  Testecleese: Typically, not present… not presidential, obviously, but it's typically either when you're planting or harvesting your crop.
• 1:02:27
  Testecleese: Like, when you're doing actual work.
• 1:02:31
  Testecleese: And these people will show up, and they'll be like, no, this has to stop. And, especially with the ranked choice, you're gonna get a whole bunch of farmers showing up, and boom, you're gonna get a whole bunch of… not just Republicans, but, like, Republican farmers on the.
• 1:02:43
  Brian McFadden: tickets.
• 1:02:45
  Testecleese: What is Virginia gonna do if I'm a farmer?
• 1:02:48
  Testecleese: becomes governor of Virginia.
• 1:02:51
  Brian McFadden: You freak the fuck out.
• 1:02:53
  Testecleese: It'll change everything, and you know, like, no, no, you need to stop billing the shit out of everyone who makes your food. We gotta give these guys discounts when they buy heavy equipment for their farms, instead of charging a huge tax. Oh, well, that combine machine costs $180,000. Yes, and it's what feeds the whole fucking state! You know?
• 1:03:13
  Testecleese: The state should be buying it for me.
• 1:03:18
  Testecleese: Because who wants to be a farmer these days? All the farmland's being sold off, and houses and condos are being built on it.
• 1:03:23
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, that's gonna be a problem down the road.
• 1:03:26
  Testecleese: It is, and I definitely noticed this, traveling from where I am all the way up to New Jersey, which, by the way, why? Why, why, why? Is the only way for me to get to New England? Not on the interstate!
• 1:03:41
  Testecleese: I didn't get on the interstate until Maryland.
• 1:03:44
  Brian McFadden: Oh, you got lucky. But you had to go through Connecticut.
• 1:03:49
  Testecleese: No, I didn't go through Connecticut.
• 1:03:51
  Brian McFadden: Okay.
• 1:03:52
  Testecleese: Connecticut's, borders Massachusetts, it's further north.
• 1:03:58
  Testecleese: What is… yeah.
• 1:04:00
  Testecleese: It's just… it's just crazy that there's…
• 1:04:02
  Testecleese: Don't get me wrong, some of these roads are 55 miles an hour, as I'm sure you noticed, Brian, especially when you went through the George Washington forest or around my house, but unless you specifically know that road, there's no way you're gonna go 50 miles an hour.
• 1:04:14
  Brian McFadden: I don't know.
• 1:04:14
  Testecleese: night, you know what I mean?
• 1:04:16
  Brian McFadden: Hell no, not happening.
• 1:04:18
  Testecleese: Yeah, you'll drive off the side of a mountain and end up on fire in some guy's cornfield in the valley.
• 1:04:23
  Brian McFadden: I don't.
• 1:04:25
  Testecleese: But yeah, I just, I got a good laugh that California's trying to undo their own policy again, because it didn't work for them this one time.
• 1:04:32
  El Guapo: No, well.
• 1:04:35
  Testecleese: Oh, I just can't wait for them to undo it.
• 1:04:37
  Testecleese: Lose the election anyway, then put it back in place.
• 1:04:40
  Testecleese: To try to secure it next time.
• 1:04:44
  Testecleese: Oh!
• 1:04:45
  El Guapo: Sure.
• 1:04:46
  Testecleese: Yeah, California mayor, she was charged, but now she's come out and, confessed to being a child.
• 1:04:53
  Brian McFadden: She resigned, she resigned, as mayor, yeah.
• 1:04:58
  Testecleese: Yeah, for being a Chinese spy.
• 1:05:01
  Brian McFadden: In Arcadia, California. This is up towards… probably… not even… I don't really think it's Northern California, it's probably in the middle of the state.
• 1:05:09
  Brian McFadden: I spent 10 years on the West Coast, so…
• 1:05:11
  Testecleese: There's skiing in Arcadia, but… That doesn't necessarily mean a whole lot, because, I mean…
• 1:05:17
  Testecleese: As long as there's some kind of season change and a mountain, you can usually.
• 1:05:21
  Brian McFadden: That would… I would put it… that would put it in Central California, and not…
• 1:05:25
  Brian McFadden: Away from those… away from the ocean and stuff like that, yeah.
• 1:05:29
  Brian McFadden: But yeah, she was acting as an illegal agent for the People's Republic of China, and she had agreed to plead guilty to felony offense.
• 1:05:37
  Brian McFadden: She now faces up to 10 years in federal prison, along with a potential $250,000 fine.
• 1:05:42
  El Guapo: How do you…
• 1:05:42
  Brian McFadden: You pay the fine if you're in prison.
• 1:05:47
  Testecleese: You still get… you get charged it, and you just have to pay it back. I mean, just because you're in prison doesn't mean your bank account vanishes.
• 1:05:55
  Testecleese: Or you're dead.
• 1:05:56
  Testecleese: I mean, if you go to prison and you can't work, you're not paying your mortgage, you lose your house, right? Yeah.
• 1:06:02
  Testecleese: Same thing here, you still owe the money, even though you're in prison. That's… it's not whomever you owe the money to's fault.
• 1:06:07
  Brian McFadden: Didn't you file bankruptcy for it when you got out of prison?
• 1:06:09
  Testecleese: A fine no.
• 1:06:11
  Brian McFadden: Okay.
• 1:06:12
  Testecleese: It might be different in California. States have their own ways of doing things, but typically speaking, a fine is separate from jail time. Like, it's separate from.
• 1:06:22
  Brian McFadden: Incredibly.
• 1:06:23
  Testecleese: Yeah, like a student loan, at least it is federally. You can't say, I can't afford to pay this. Like, well, then over the next 20 years, we're gonna figure this out.
• 1:06:30
  Testecleese: Oh, we're gonna start seizing your property, you know?
• 1:06:34
  El Guapo: But…
• 1:06:35
  Testecleese: She's paying a quarter million dollar fine, is that to the United States or to California?
• 1:06:39
  Brian McFadden: It's gotta be the United States. Well, that's the United States, the DOJ's putting it after her.
• 1:06:45
  Testecleese: Yeah, so she's… On the hook for a quarter million, but here's the thing.
• 1:06:50
  Testecleese: She's gonna run back to China as soon as she gets out of prison.
• 1:06:53
  Brian McFadden: No, we're never gonna see that money.
• 1:06:55
  Testecleese: Maybe not, they might execute her for getting caught.
• 1:07:00
  Brian McFadden: He'll go to Hong Kong. He'll go to Taiwan.
• 1:07:02
  Testecleese: Have you no- yeah, have you noticed that these, Chinese spies are, like, cockroaches, though?
• 1:07:06
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:07:07
  Testecleese: You see, one, there's 10,000 more.
• 1:07:11
  El Guapo: Whoa, who…
• 1:07:12
  Testecleese: Swalwell was banging one.
• 1:07:14
  Testecleese: Maxine Juarez had one as her driver.
• 1:07:17
  Brian McFadden: That was new.
• 1:07:17
  El Guapo: I am fine.
• 1:07:19
  Testecleese: Pelosi?
• 1:07:19
  El Guapo: Dianne Feinstein.
• 1:07:21
  Brian McFadden: Feinstein, okay.
• 1:07:22
  Testecleese: I'm just saying, it seems they seem to be attaching themselves to the Democrat Party, too, have you noticed that?
• 1:07:27
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:07:27
  Testecleese: Is that because they're getting diversity hires? Because they're talking like this?
• 1:07:33
  Testecleese: If you're talking like this, we have to hire you, or be racist!
• 1:07:36
  El Guapo: Oh, they're getting paid by them.
• 1:07:40
  Testecleese: Was that…
• 1:07:40
  El Guapo: Oh, they're getting paid by them.
• 1:07:42
  Testecleese: Oh, if they're on… if they're…
• 1:07:44
  Testecleese: Being paid off by this, that's even more ridiculous.
• 1:07:47
  El Guapo: Yeah, probably getting bars of gold.
• 1:07:52
  El Guapo: Alright.
• 1:07:53
  Testecleese: I know I did those in the wrong order, but I, whoa.
• 1:07:57
  Testecleese: Family issues, delayed us another day.
• 1:08:00
  Testecleese: Family always comes first.
• 1:08:02
  Brian McFadden: Nope.
• 1:08:05
  Testecleese: kind of rushed through, because I didn't realize we were going to do one tonight. I thought you were gonna be busy. And then I saw your message, like, oh, fuck! Like, I have, like, 9 pages of Google Doc to go through.
• 1:08:16
  Testecleese: Oh, I threw so much stuff out, it was ridiculous.
• 1:08:22
  Testecleese: Oh, here we go. Now there's a new fraud probe, going on. A probe. That just sounds so… why can't they say investigation?
• 1:08:29
  El Guapo: You know what I mean?
• 1:08:31
  Testecleese: is putting a spotlight on Omar and her, and her district.
• 1:08:36
  Testecleese: It says, among… or… amid viral gaffe, what was that?
• 1:08:43
  Testecleese: Oh, her World War XI thing.
• 1:08:45
  Brian McFadden: Yeah,
• 1:08:47
  Testecleese: I…
• 1:08:48
  Testecleese: I remember, I was, like, on my way to New Jersey in the car when this… I saw this come up with her talking all this shit or whatever.
• 1:08:56
  Testecleese: And someone had shared in it her talk about World War XI.
• 1:09:01
  Testecleese: And I was like, what? I was like, oh, I, I?
• 1:09:04
  Testecleese: And then I heard, saw a lot of people, like, defending her. I was like, well, you know, she's not native to this country, and I was like, it's fucking Roman numerals!
• 1:09:10
  Brian McFadden: It's not neat to this country.
• 1:09:11
  Testecleese: They're either.
• 1:09:12
  Brian McFadden: Okay.
• 1:09:12
  Testecleese: Right.
• 1:09:13
  Brian McFadden: It's… we got it from Rome! They're like, this is one of the…
• 1:09:17
  Testecleese: foundations of, like, modern society, okay? Everyone… oh my god.
• 1:09:23
  Testecleese: But then she came out, she's like, oh.
• 1:09:26
  El Guapo: Everyone tried to defend her for, you know.
• 1:09:29
  Testecleese: naivety, or ignorance. And then she came out, like, the next day, or whatever, and was like, no, I was trying to speed through reading the teleprompter or whatever.
• 1:09:37
  Testecleese: It's like, oh, so there you go, you guys are coming up with excuses that aren't even real.
• 1:09:42
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:09:42
  Testecleese: It just blew my mind, though, World War XI.
• 1:09:45
  Brian McFadden: She's also still in the news.
• 1:09:48
  El Guapo: Okay, how about…
• 1:09:48
  Brian McFadden: She's re- ignoring the subpoena crest from the state.
• 1:09:53
  El Guapo: Of Minnesota.
• 1:09:56
  Testecleese: Well, what's fascinating to me is…
• 1:09:59
  Testecleese: It says her district. She's a federal… Congresswoman, right?
• 1:10:03
  Brian McFadden: Yes.
• 1:10:04
  Brian McFadden: But that doesn't exempt her from state subpoenas.
• 1:10:08
  Testecleese: Correct, but how is she having this much control in her voting district?
• 1:10:13
  Testecleese: to allow so much fraud going on, and shouldn't this be state-level.
• 1:10:17
  Brian McFadden: I don't think she's allowed into one, I think she's part of the company that they're… they're investigating for fraud.
• 1:10:24
  Testecleese: Oh, she used her own district to do her fraud?
• 1:10:26
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:10:27
  Testecleese: Oh, that's just begging to get caught, isn't it? Just like, if you're gonna make meth, don't make it in your fucking garage, because you gotta…
• 1:10:34
  Brian McFadden: Don't make it in your college campus.
• 1:10:37
  Testecleese: Don't make it your college campus. Well, you know what? At least it wasn't your house, because at least if you're not there.
• 1:10:41
  Brian McFadden: movement.
• 1:10:41
  Testecleese: There's not a meth lab sitting in your house, you know what I mean?
• 1:10:48
  Testecleese: Alright. Oh, this is funny, too.
• 1:10:51
  Testecleese: walls.
• 1:10:53
  Testecleese: It's trying to take credit for the crackdown on… the very fraud.
• 1:10:58
  Brian McFadden: He let it happen?
• 1:10:59
  Testecleese: that he had happened, and Ilhan Omaz being accused of being involved in.
• 1:11:03
  Testecleese: And it's like, wait a minute, buddy, when Trump came in and tried to do something about this, you called him all sorts of terrible names, and now you're trying to sweep in and say, I did all this? No, dude, you let that shit happen.
• 1:11:15
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:11:16
  Testecleese: How many billions of dollars of federal taxpayer dollars disappeared into the pockets of the Learing Center?
• 1:11:23
  Testecleese: By the way, did you see the leering center popped up again somewhere else?
• 1:11:26
  Brian McFadden: Huh.
• 1:11:27
  Testecleese: They misspelled learning again.
• 1:11:29
  El Guapo: Oh, they haven't.
• 1:11:30
  Brian McFadden: Oh, God.
• 1:11:30
  El Guapo: I guess I haven't learned the lessons.
• 1:11:32
  Testecleese: Yeah, they didn't leer their lesson yet.
• 1:11:34
  El Guapo: Literally.
• 1:11:39
  El Guapo: You gotta get cut because of idiocracy.
• 1:11:44
  Testecleese: That was a good movie.
• 1:11:46
  Brian McFadden: That was a good movie.
• 1:11:47
  Testecleese: What's terrifying is that might actually be coming, because we're pushing the farmers out of their ability to sustain their lives.
• 1:11:55
  Testecleese: And you're gonna get these city urbanites trying to fucking grow tomato plants on their frickin' stoop, or on their balcony, or whatever.
• 1:12:03
  Testecleese: Pouring Gatorade into it, because it has electrolytes.
• 1:12:06
  Brian McFadden: Alright, help it grow faster.
• 1:12:08
  Testecleese: Exactly.
• 1:12:11
  Brian McFadden: You get some high guy coming in and fixing the problem.
• 1:12:14
  Testecleese: Yeah, it's like, what's the matter with all of you? It's not how it ends.
• 1:12:16
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, this shit works.
• 1:12:18
  Brian McFadden: Use real water!
• 1:12:21
  Testecleese: I need to watch that movie again. That was a good movie.
• 1:12:24
  Testecleese: We might have to do this on the show and make it a weekly thing. We'll pick a movie in advance and we'll all watch it.
• 1:12:31
  Brian McFadden: Okay.
• 1:12:32
  Testecleese: And, yeah, and it could even be idiocracy, and we could talk about it, because it seems like we, almost every week, we get together and we bring up some movie.
• 1:12:43
  Testecleese: Just like it bothers me, okay.
• 1:12:46
  Testecleese: There were 3 movies starring John Rambo, right?
• 1:12:50
  El Guapo: Yeah. The first blow?
• 1:12:51
  Testecleese: Okay. Yep, first blood. What's the second one called?
• 1:12:54
  El Guapo: Rambo.
• 1:12:56
  Testecleese: The second one is First Blood 2 Rambo.
• 1:12:58
  El Guapo: Oh, okay. I forgot.
• 1:13:00
  Testecleese: The third one is Rambo 2. And I'm like, oh, it should be First Blood 3 Rambo 2, if that's how we're gonna do it.
• 1:13:06
  Testecleese: He's like, come on, come on, guys.
• 1:13:07
  Brian McFadden: Trying to find a new audience.
• 1:13:11
  Testecleese: First Blood was a great movie, the second two were okay.
• 1:13:15
  Testecleese: First Blood was a great flick, I don't think they should have made a trilogy out of it. Patrick Dennehy was the… the sheriff?
• 1:13:24
  Testecleese: Brian Dennehy.
• 1:13:26
  Testecleese: Yeah, great, oh, great flick.
• 1:13:30
  El Guapo: Oh, this is fun, too!
• 1:13:33
  Testecleese: Minnesota once again.
• 1:13:34
  El Guapo: This is a.
• 1:13:35
  Testecleese: Grocery store order is being charged,
• 1:13:38
  Testecleese: for allegedly stealing a million dollars in EBT benefits.
• 1:13:42
  Brian McFadden: Those are federal benefits.
• 1:13:45
  El Guapo: Yes.
• 1:13:46
  Testecleese: And it took me a couple minutes to figure out how you would do this.
• 1:13:50
  Testecleese: Because I was like, no, when, like, I've worked retail before, and like, at a gas station, people use food stamps all the time.
• 1:13:59
  El Guapo: And I was like.
• 1:14:00
  Testecleese: and you swipe it, you swipe the card, it'll automatically remove everything that's not accounted for. But I forgot that not all places have that same tech, where you… some of these places, you still manually punch in the price of stuff.
• 1:14:12
  Brian McFadden: Go.
• 1:14:13
  Testecleese: So he was writing off… Beer purchases as food stamps.
• 1:14:19
  Brian McFadden: Hot food.
• 1:14:20
  Testecleese: Yeah, while the crackdown on food stamps is happening, and I don't know about the rest of this country, did the soda thing go nationwide yet, or no? No.
• 1:14:29
  Brian McFadden: No, it's working.
• 1:14:31
  Testecleese: West Virginia's already put it into effect. There are signs on every door that you can get a soda. It's like, you cannot buy candy, you cannot get soda, you cannot.
• 1:14:39
  Brian McFadden: That makes sense to me. I agree with that plot, that philosophy, you know, that's not what he teach you before, yeah.
• 1:14:46
  Testecleese: nutritional sustenance.
• 1:14:48
  Brian McFadden: I also think they shouldn't be able to buy lobster, Lou.
• 1:14:51
  Brian McFadden: Grab legs and lobsters with it, either.
• 1:14:54
  El Guapo: Mark.
• 1:14:55
  Testecleese: I agree with you in concept, but how do you…
• 1:14:58
  Brian McFadden: I don't know.
• 1:14:59
  Testecleese: How do you separate actual healthy food?
• 1:15:02
  Testecleese: from it, Just because it's expensive food.
• 1:15:06
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:15:07
  Testecleese: That's a tough one, and it does bother me when you see these people, like, I just bought these 3 lobsters on EBT! I'm like, bitch! I don't qualify for EBT, and I can't get fucking lobster.
• 1:15:18
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:15:19
  Testecleese: I'm like in Minnesota, eating lobster. I'm like.
• 1:15:21
  Testecleese: Fuck did you get a lobster in Minnesota?
• 1:15:23
  Brian McFadden: Probably got it through the Mail Order Lobster Company. I don't remember what it's called anymore, but there's one out there.
• 1:15:30
  Testecleese: that up to the wife again. She recently did an, a silent auction online for, like, a whole bunch of used stuff, and she got this big honkin' fish tank. And I was like, I'm telling you, babe.
• 1:15:41
  Brian McFadden: Oh, no.
• 1:15:43
  Testecleese: lobsters.
• 1:15:45
  Testecleese: Like, breed these suckers! She's like, what are you gonna do with lobster?
• 1:15:48
  Testecleese: I was like, I go down to the restaurant down, 20…
• 1:15:51
  Brian McFadden: Right down the road.
• 1:15:52
  Testecleese: And he's like, yeah, what are they gonna do with them? I was like, them and serve them.
• 1:15:56
  Testecleese: Yeah, but her thought was, they're not gonna be able to move them fast, and I was like, yeah, but you don't have to…
• 1:16:01
  Brian McFadden: Yes, sir.
• 1:16:02
  Testecleese: it's sitting there in the restaurant. You don't even have to have them at the restaurant. Just put a little thing, hey, if you want lobster, let us know a day in advance, and then I'll drive my ass down with a lobster, and I'll say, I want X dollars for this lobster.
• 1:16:15
  Testecleese: You know?
• 1:16:16
  Testecleese: I got no… and here's what's crazy about lobsters, I don't know if you guys know this, they're basically immortal.
• 1:16:23
  Testecleese: They don't die of old age. They don't die… oh, no, they'll die, but they don't die of old age.
• 1:16:28
  Testecleese: So it can sit in your tank for 20 years, and it's gonna be okay as long as you keep feeding it.
• 1:16:35
  Testecleese: Problem is, if you don't feed them, they start eating each other very quickly.
• 1:16:41
  Testecleese: Alright.
• 1:16:42
  Brian McFadden: Well, Melissa came up with a new statement.
• 1:16:44
  Testecleese: Yeah. I love this, because this is exactly what they called Trump evil for, too. Yeah. But, yeah, they got a new flag, but some counties or districts don't want to fly it.
• 1:16:56
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:16:57
  Brian McFadden: So they're gonna cut all state aid off to those cities and counties.
• 1:17:02
  Testecleese: Isn't this basically what Trump said about, like, flying the LGBTQIAARP flag at federal buildings?
• 1:17:11
  Testecleese: He's like, no, no, you can't do that.
• 1:17:14
  Testecleese: Especially, don't flag just as high as the United States flag.
• 1:17:17
  Brian McFadden: No, no flag goes above the United States flag, or… Nothing goes above that.
• 1:17:21
  Testecleese: Nothing should even be the same height.
• 1:17:22
  Brian McFadden: No.
• 1:17:24
  Testecleese: I know you two realize it, but does everyone else realize? The United States is the only nation that does not dip its flag to the Olympic Council at the Olympics.
• 1:17:33
  Testecleese: Everyone else bows with the flag, the United States does not. Because you never, ever…
• 1:17:39
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:17:39
  El Guapo: the American flag.
• 1:17:41
  Testecleese: Shoot, if it touches the ground, it has to be retired and destroyed, right?
• 1:17:45
  Brian McFadden: Nope.
• 1:17:47
  Testecleese: I've done one of those since I got out of the service.
• 1:17:50
  El Guapo: service.
• 1:17:52
  Testecleese: We did it as… Proper as we, you know, could do ourselves.
• 1:17:55
  Brian McFadden: We do them at the VFW all the time.
• 1:17:58
  Testecleese: Yeah, next time I might go over to the VFW and hand him my flag. I was like, this is a whole process.
• 1:18:04
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:18:04
  Testecleese: Yo, we did it like we were still in the service.
• 1:18:06
  Brian McFadden: I'm okay.
• 1:18:08
  Testecleese: Like, yeah, this just seems like too much effort.
• 1:18:11
  Brian McFadden: It's cutting into my drinking time.
• 1:18:13
  Testecleese: Exactly. It's like, I'm not gonna be drinking a beer while I'm retiring a flag. If anything, I'm gonna be pouring one out.
• 1:18:20
  Brian McFadden: You know what I mean?
• 1:18:25
  Testecleese: Okay.
• 1:18:26
  Testecleese: I don't know who Brooke Rowlands is. No idea.
• 1:18:29
  Testecleese: Apparently, I'm guessing she?
• 1:18:31
  Testecleese: Is a USDA employee somehow, I'm not sure at what level.
• 1:18:36
  Testecleese: But apparently, there are 14,000 SNAP recipients driving luxury cars.
• 1:18:41
  El Guapo: Damn.
• 1:18:41
  Brian McFadden: If you can afford a luxury car, you don't need SNAP.
• 1:18:45
  Testecleese: Well, that was something I noticed at Virginia 7-Eleven over there in.
• 1:18:49
  El Guapo: Hampton.
• 1:18:50
  Testecleese: Right off of Mercury by, Windhaven Drive.
• 1:18:53
  El Guapo: No.
• 1:18:55
  Testecleese: I'd have people showing up in cars that cost twice as much as my car did.
• 1:18:59
  El Guapo: Which…
• 1:19:00
  Testecleese: Don't get me wrong, I only spent 14 grand on my only…
• 1:19:03
  El Guapo: Brand new car I ever bought.
• 1:19:05
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:19:05
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:19:06
  Testecleese: But these guys are showing up in, like, $30,000 cars, like, brand new, swiping EBT cards.
• 1:19:12
  Testecleese: I'm like, how do you have a $30,000 car with a bump in stereo, you got the ground effect.
• 1:19:18
  Brian McFadden: Exactly.
• 1:19:19
  El Guapo: going on.
• 1:19:20
  Testecleese: And you're on Snap. I was like, you must be… you must be selling drugs.
• 1:19:24
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:19:24
  Testecleese: You're making your money illegally somehow, and not.
• 1:19:27
  Brian McFadden: That's under the table, that's how…
• 1:19:29
  Testecleese: You're not letting the government…
• 1:19:31
  Testecleese: What the fuck? Why would you use Snap if you're doing better than the average person?
• 1:19:35
  Brian McFadden: They don't want to waste their drug money on food.
• 1:19:43
  Testecleese: just, it… There needs to be a crackdown.
• 1:19:47
  Testecleese: But a bunch of these states where it's happening are passing laws saying you're not even allowed to investigate fraud, and it's like, wait a minute, what?
• 1:19:53
  Brian McFadden: Thought that was only California.
• 1:19:55
  Testecleese: Yeah, but there's a bunch of states saying you shouldn't be allowed to even go look at these people on EBT, because that's, you know, you're violating their privacy rights. I'm like, no, no, no.
• 1:20:04
  Brian McFadden: No, no, they agreed to do the… they agreed to take public money, they… they should be, like, an open book.
• 1:20:10
  Testecleese: Records, yeah, and their records aren't necessarily public.
• 1:20:13
  El Guapo: Like, you and I could see him?
• 1:20:15
  Testecleese: But there should be someone who can come in and audit and make sure that this… Well, we talked about someone a while ago, she had, like, three, four million dollar houses and, like, 2 quarter million dollar cars on EBT.
• 1:20:27
  Testecleese: And she's like, I just lied on how much money I made a year, and they just signed it over to me, until she finally got caught, because someone was like, you're in a Ferrari, using food stamps.
• 1:20:37
  Testecleese: Right.
• 1:20:40
  Testecleese: Shit, I wish I could remember who that was, or where it was. That was a couple years ago.
• 1:20:45
  Testecleese: We definitely talked about it here, though. Because I remember it pissed me off so much.
• 1:20:50
  Testecleese: Okay, there's tons of fraud, but why?
• 1:20:53
  Testecleese: are so many people abusing the system this way? And could it have something to do with, for example, this delusional Democrat, lawmaker, so Congress or Senator.
• 1:21:03
  Testecleese: is calling for charges against Walgreens, closing down.
• 1:21:07
  Brian McFadden: Because of the excessive…
• 1:21:09
  Testecleese: Fine.
• 1:21:11
  Brian McFadden: maybe not rob the place blind, so they can stay in business. It's a corporation, they need to make a profit. Some may not have to be a huge profit, but they need to make a profit.
• 1:21:23
  Brian McFadden: And…
• 1:21:24
  Testecleese: You can't afford to pay your employees, who then go and abuse the food stamp system because they're not getting paid.
• 1:21:29
  Brian McFadden: Yeah. I laughed when I saw this article. I was like, you guys don't want to do anything about crime. People are literally coming in there and robbing Walgreens blind. What do you expect Walgreens to do?
• 1:21:41
  Testecleese: And it says not just the, the being stolen from.
• 1:21:46
  Testecleese: Apparently, people are walking in with firearms and threatening employees while they do this sometimes.
• 1:21:51
  Testecleese: And let's be real, modern-day United States.
• 1:21:55
  Testecleese: If you work in retail, and even if you're security at retail.
• 1:21:59
  Brian McFadden: You're supposed to let them do what they're not supposed to intervene.
• 1:22:02
  Testecleese: You don't put your hands on the customer unless it's an actual, like, physical violence issue and someone might get hurt.
• 1:22:10
  El Guapo: So I go.
• 1:22:11
  Testecleese: There's nothing you can do to stop these people. You call the police, and they say it was under $1,000, or…
• 1:22:16
  Brian McFadden: That's California.
• 1:22:17
  Testecleese: I know, oh, we have bigger things to worry about. It's like, okay, well, why don't you go get the fucking murderers, then? You know?
• 1:22:24
  El Guapo: Yo.
• 1:22:24
  Testecleese: And they're protected because they're in gangs, and therefore they're a protected class, you know? And it makes you wonder why anyone is going to do anything the right way.
• 1:22:33
  Testecleese: And… Maybe that's why people are stealing all this shit and lying on their, EBT stuff.
• 1:22:43
  Testecleese: Here we go, Ramirez and, Meha… Mejayi, I'm not sure.
• 1:22:48
  El Guapo: May year.
• 1:22:50
  Testecleese: Okay, well, Guapo may know this one better than I do.
• 1:22:53
  El Guapo: Hmm, I just noticed that…
• 1:22:55
  Testecleese: Oh, okay.
• 1:22:57
  Testecleese: are introducing a Living Wage for All Act.
• 1:23:00
  Testecleese: Calling for a $25 minimum wage.
• 1:23:02
  El Guapo: Yep. Oh, God.
• 1:23:04
  Testecleese: Oh, Sanders and AOC are backing this program.
• 1:23:07
  Brian McFadden: Of course they are.
• 1:23:08
  Testecleese: with a coalition of over 100-plus organizations, the NAACP,
• 1:23:12
  Testecleese: American Federations of Teachers and National Education Association. First of all, teachers make more than $25 an hour.
• 1:23:21
  Brian McFadden: Some places.
• 1:23:23
  Testecleese: I just know that when I was in Massachusetts, I had to look at the public records of what the teachers got paid.
• 1:23:28
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, that's Massachusetts.
• 1:23:30
  Testecleese: They will make Big ears.
• 1:23:32
  Brian McFadden: It's not the rest of the country, no. Most places, teachers don't make six figures.
• 1:23:40
  Testecleese: That's…
• 1:23:42
  Testecleese: I think if you want to live in Boston, you have to make at least 90 grand a year.
• 1:23:46
  Brian McFadden: Okay.
• 1:23:47
  Testecleese: looking… I wasn't looking at Boston, I was looking…
• 1:23:50
  Testecleese: At the high school that, my… my town was associated with.
• 1:23:53
  Brian McFadden: It's fine, but it's still got a higher cost of living in Massachusetts than West Virginia. You think the West Virginians are making six figures?
• 1:24:02
  Testecleese: No, but I'm saying that's still more money than your average Massachusetts resident made, who wasn't… working in Boston.
• 1:24:10
  Testecleese: Signing deals, like, your actual workers?
• 1:24:13
  Brian McFadden: Okay.
• 1:24:13
  Testecleese: Who worked 350 days a year?
• 1:24:17
  Testecleese: I'm sorry, 340-something days a year, because, you know, they get all the holidays plus 2 weeks.
• 1:24:24
  Testecleese: Are making less than teachers are.
• 1:24:27
  Testecleese: And you can say, Jesus, they reach into their own pockets. They don't have to!
• 1:24:31
  Testecleese: Teacher does not have to reach into their own pocket to buy pencils for the students.
• 1:24:35
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:24:36
  Testecleese: That's true.
• 1:24:36
  Brian McFadden: That's do.
• 1:24:37
  Testecleese: Yeah, because they make $100,000 a year! Some of them are making, like, $160,000!
• 1:24:42
  Testecleese: I think it's…
• 1:24:42
  Brian McFadden: It's not happening here in Michigan. Teachers ain't making… Six figures in Michigan.
• 1:24:47
  Testecleese: And you also don't need 80 grand a year minimum to be able to survive in Michigan.
• 1:24:52
  Testecleese: Probably any part of Michigan, I'm guessing.
• 1:24:56
  Testecleese: I'm guessing 80 grand a year in Michigan's a lot of money, isn't it?
• 1:24:59
  Brian McFadden: Nope.
• 1:25:02
  Testecleese: But yeah, now they're calling for a $25 minimum wage.
• 1:25:05
  Testecleese: Oh my god, how many times have we seen this played out in different states and watch it just collapse?
• 1:25:10
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 1:25:14
  Testecleese: How old are the… and again, AOC, an economy major, economics major. How does she not see… this has happened several times, and it keeps happening the same way. I know! Let's implement it nationwide. And this is for federal employees, just a heads up.
• 1:25:31
  Testecleese: So, oh, that means now…
• 1:25:34
  Testecleese: The postal delivery guy, the guy who delivers your mail, is gonna get paid more than you if you're a fucking lumberjack doing the biggest job there is in West Virginia, is making lumber so people.
• 1:25:46
  Brian McFadden: Look at Bill…
• 1:25:47
  Testecleese: houses. Or, coal miners.
• 1:25:50
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:25:51
  Testecleese: It takes several years to get $25 an hour mining coal in West Virginia.
• 1:25:56
  El Guapo: Shit.
• 1:25:58
  Testecleese: I got up to $35, $37 an hour when I was welding in Massachusetts.
• 1:26:05
  Testecleese: And that was only because, A, at some nepotism, I knew the whole family that owned the company, my father had worked there.
• 1:26:14
  Testecleese: But I also… they knew I had experience in more challenging welding situations than what they were putting me in.
• 1:26:20
  Testecleese: And then COVID happened, and they gave us, overtime pay all the time, which was… I gotta admit, that was pretty cool of them.
• 1:26:27
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:26:28
  Testecleese: But they did make me wear that stupid paper mask over my face when I'm in a weld booth that's, like, 110 degrees.
• 1:26:34
  Brian McFadden: That saved your life.
• 1:26:35
  Testecleese: Yes, no, it almost killed me, I overheated.
• 1:26:38
  Testecleese: You're just breathing in your own breath, and it's hot, and you're like, oh my god, it's so disgusting.
• 1:26:44
  Testecleese: You're like, oh, now I'm starting to smell the ba- I'm starting to taste the bacon. Even worse, smell the bacon from my sandwich this morning, you know what I mean?
• 1:26:54
  Testecleese: But, I mean, like I said, like, that was… welding is… A fairly well-paid job.
• 1:27:01
  Testecleese: In general, because not every… not a whole bunch of people know how to do it well.
• 1:27:05
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:27:07
  Testecleese: So, this is your high-end, blue-collar job, in terms of pay.
• 1:27:12
  Testecleese: Until you start getting into some, like, long-haul truckers. I'm sure Guapo could tell us about how much money some of these assholes make driving a friggin' cargo from Norfolk to Sacramento, and then picking up small trips on his way back to Norfolk to get paid along the way home.
• 1:27:26
  El Guapo: Those dudes.
• 1:27:27
  Testecleese: They get paid, don't they?
• 1:27:29
  El Guapo: Yes, but… Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:27:32
  Testecleese: If you're bringing Maine lobster to New Mexico, you're getting paid.
• 1:27:35
  Brian McFadden: I don't.
• 1:27:37
  Testecleese: Hmm.
• 1:27:40
  Testecleese: But driving's a completely different situation.
• 1:27:44
  Testecleese: Shit.
• 1:27:45
  Testecleese: 15 years, it might be all but impossible to drive yourself. All the cars might do it themselves with a network they're all hooked into.
• 1:27:53
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, we see how Waymo's doing good with that one area.
• 1:27:57
  Testecleese: Well, that's just getting started. Yeah, well, the issue with the Waymos is they…
• 1:28:02
  Testecleese: They'll stop, like, you've arrived at your destination, they want you to get out, and it's, like, 4 feet from the curb, and this traffic.
• 1:28:08
  Brian McFadden: You're like, oh…
• 1:28:11
  Testecleese: What, it's running people over and crashing, too?
• 1:28:16
  El Guapo: Yeah. Exactly.
• 1:28:17
  Testecleese: If I got run over by a robot.
• 1:28:19
  Testecleese: You better believe I'm destroying that thing.
• 1:28:24
  Testecleese: Problem is, what, California's one of the most predominant, and…
• 1:28:27
  Testecleese: chances are, you're probably not gonna have a weapon on you to destroy that vehicle.
• 1:28:33
  Brian McFadden: authorized.
• 1:28:34
  Testecleese: Well, if there's a rogue machine running around…
• 1:28:37
  Testecleese: Running people over, it needs to be stopped right away.
• 1:28:41
  Brian McFadden: Terminator.
• 1:28:42
  Testecleese: Yeah, maybe a shotgun blast through the frickin' electric, motor will do it, you know?
• 1:28:49
  Testecleese: Oh my god. Alright. Brian!
• 1:28:51
  Testecleese: I've brought this name up enough times on the show.
• 1:28:54
  El Guapo: Yup.
• 1:28:55
  Testecleese: He's the son of one of the Young Turks, which I still… I know you still don't know who they are.
• 1:28:59
  Brian McFadden: I've tried to listen to one of their episodes, I couldn't.
• 1:29:02
  Testecleese: God.
• 1:29:02
  Brian McFadden: So…
• 1:29:03
  Testecleese: Yeah, oh yeah, I'm surprised you didn't freaking eat your gun.
• 1:29:09
  Brian McFadden: I subscribed to him for a while, and I'm like, this is ridiculous, I need to unsubscribe, I don't want to encourage this podcast anymore.
• 1:29:19
  Testecleese: Well, I don't… I don't follow the Young Turks, but every now and then, there… something comes up that Senk Uygur would say.
• 1:29:25
  Testecleese: And he actually ran for president.
• 1:29:28
  Testecleese: Zank.
• 1:29:30
  Testecleese: He wasn't eligible, he wasn't born in the country, but he still ran.
• 1:29:34
  Brian McFadden: How'd that work out for him?
• 1:29:35
  Testecleese: He wasn't gonna get the votes anyway.
• 1:29:38
  Testecleese: But I just thought it was… I was like, alright, man, hey!
• 1:29:40
  Testecleese: You know that if it comes down to it, you actually win the election, you're not getting the seat, and he even said this, I know I'm not gonna be able to take the position.
• 1:29:47
  El Guapo: Right. But, I respect that.
• 1:29:51
  El Guapo: He gets… he likes to ignore the truth in front of his face, but…
• 1:29:54
  Testecleese: He's usually polite enough when discussing things with people.
• 1:29:58
  Brian McFadden: Okay.
• 1:29:59
  Testecleese: His nephew, who got his position from nepotism from his uncle.
• 1:30:03
  Brian McFadden: Hasan?
• 1:30:05
  Testecleese: Hassan Piker, he's the guy who zapped his dog live on a YouTube video with a shark collar because it wouldn't stay sitting still.
• 1:30:13
  Testecleese: That's what started the controversy of this guy. He used to be a, pickup artist.
• 1:30:18
  Testecleese: It was how we started on YouTube.
• 1:30:21
  Testecleese: Like, how, you know, how to get, how to clap the cheeks.
• 1:30:25
  El Guapo: Oh, God.
• 1:30:25
  Testecleese: Then he went to Cuba. He was one of the guys in Cuba starting all this shit, and he's like, oh yeah, we're helping everyone. He was handing out, like, scraps of food that he had left over from lunch or something. Right. He's like, dude, you're a scumbag. He's like, you ate at the only place on the island with electricity, you know, the American place.
• 1:30:42
  Brian McFadden: And now he says stealing and murder are okay.
• 1:30:46
  Testecleese: Yes.
• 1:30:47
  Testecleese: And…
• 1:30:48
  Testecleese: The funny thing is, they asked him about Whole Foods. He goes, yeah, I have no problem stealing from these, these mega corporations.
• 1:30:55
  Testecleese: I'm like, do you have any idea what…
• 1:30:57
  Testecleese: How much money Whole Foods makes on their products?
• 1:31:01
  Testecleese: Like, do these people have… do these people.
• 1:31:02
  Brian McFadden: No, grocery stores make minuscule profit. They make very… next to nothing, yeah.
• 1:31:08
  Testecleese: Yeah, it's like 3% margin or something.
• 1:31:10
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:31:12
  Testecleese: He has no idea what's going on. And then you go to, like, the… not just the supermarket that everyone goes to, he goes to the fancy high-end one.
• 1:31:20
  Testecleese: And it's okay to just steal there. And he said, killing people.
• 1:31:23
  Testecleese: You know, some people just need to die.
• 1:31:26
  Testecleese: I'm like, dear God, by your logic, you offend me so much, it's okay to buy him if I come out there and assassinate him.
• 1:31:36
  Testecleese: I don't know, he talks a lot of shit, and he throws a lot of temper tantrums.
• 1:31:40
  Testecleese: Actually, Shulun had just ripped him apart, and it was hilarious.
• 1:31:43
  El Guapo: She even tried to just, like…
• 1:31:45
  Testecleese: No, she just talked about what happened.
• 1:31:47
  El Guapo: Yeah, he got butt hurt about it.
• 1:31:49
  Testecleese: Oh, he went nuts! I loved it, though, because I saw… I didn't see what Shiun had said, but I saw everyone reacting, like, holy crap, Shu Wonhad just laid into this guy!
• 1:31:58
  El Guapo: No, she didn't, she just.
• 1:32:00
  Testecleese: No!
• 1:32:00
  El Guapo: I could talk about him and stuff, but he got a butthurt about it.
• 1:32:05
  Testecleese: And I saw her… I did watch her response video to it, though, which was hilarious.
• 1:32:10
  Testecleese: And yeah, she went ahead, and he called her, like, this, like, right-wing…
• 1:32:15
  El Guapo: Just nowhere near.
• 1:32:17
  Testecleese: fuckable? Goth, or something like that. Or emo girl.
• 1:32:21
  El Guapo: And I was like.
• 1:32:22
  Testecleese: Just because she doesn't want her to spread her legs for everyone, like, she's never been right-wing, she's always been a left-winger.
• 1:32:29
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:32:31
  Testecleese: That's the problem, is that the left is so far fractured that,
• 1:32:37
  Testecleese: I think after this midterm election, something huge is gonna happen to the Democrat Party.
• 1:32:40
  El Guapo: Hopefully.
• 1:32:41
  Testecleese: I think they're gonna push the progressives out, and maybe the socialists.
• 1:32:48
  Testecleese: They're not gonna win if they keep bringing in these people that say it's okay to kill people.
• 1:32:52
  El Guapo: And cheer. Not even necessarily cheer.
• 1:32:55
  Testecleese: But have some smart-ass comment.
• 1:32:58
  El Guapo: You know what I mean?
• 1:33:01
  Testecleese: People are still cheering about Charlie Kirk being murdered.
• 1:33:11
  Testecleese: Dude in, Washington, basic entrepreneur, you know, goes out and makes his money on his own.
• 1:33:17
  Testecleese: Washington State.
• 1:33:19
  El Guapo: Not DC.
• 1:33:21
  Testecleese: He's, fleeing!
• 1:33:23
  Testecleese: Washington to Texas because of this unconstitutional, close quote.
• 1:33:29
  El Guapo: Wealth tax?
• 1:33:33
  Testecleese: Well… Wasn't it Washington?
• 1:33:37
  Testecleese: One of the mayors, or maybe the governor, who just recently came out and was like, waved him goodbye, all these billionaires from leaving, was like, good, don't let the door hate you, the good Lord split you?
• 1:33:47
  Testecleese: New York just did the same thing, and now…
• 1:33:53
  Testecleese: the governor, Hochul, is begging the billionaires to come back from Florida, where they disappeared to, and even Mom Donnie's trying to get that one billionaire to stay in New York City because of what he did.
• 1:34:04
  El Guapo: Yeah, I fucked it. Let that fucking suck.
• 1:34:07
  El Guapo: Let the… oh, the… let the get… everybody get voted out.
• 1:34:13
  El Guapo: Yeah. Oh, there you go, there you go, it was. The Seattle mayor.
• 1:34:18
  Testecleese: The Seattle mayor, Katie Wilson, was the one who waved goodbye to the millionaires who were leaving over taxes. And it's like, then who's going to pay the taxes?
• 1:34:26
  Brian McFadden: They don't put two and two together very fast.
• 1:34:30
  El Guapo: No, they don't.
• 1:34:31
  El Guapo: Fucking… emotional fuckin'… Children.
• 1:34:36
  Testecleese: And you know what? I don't even like this progressive tax scale that we've been using forever.
• 1:34:40
  Brian McFadden: Right? You want a flat tax?
• 1:34:42
  Testecleese: Not even necessarily a flat tax. I've explained to you a couple different ideas I've had on the show more than once.
• 1:34:47
  Testecleese: But it just seems nuts to me, because…
• 1:34:51
  Testecleese: You pay 20% of your $100,000, so you paid $20,000, right?
• 1:34:58
  Testecleese: Now, if you also charge the guy worth $100 million at 20%, that's $20 million. Why does it have to be $35 million?
• 1:35:11
  Testecleese: And that's the thing, is you're chasing these people out.
• 1:35:13
  Testecleese: Like, oh good, we don't need them. It's like, yes, you do. And then you send them off to, like, Texas or Florida, who's gonna collect all this tax money instead.
• 1:35:23
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, well, you got this… you already covered it, alright, good.
• 1:35:27
  El Guapo: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 1:35:30
  Testecleese: The gender-neutral, combat fitness step.
• 1:35:33
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, that's a good one.
• 1:35:35
  El Guapo: Okay, so why's the controversy?
• 1:35:40
  Testecleese: Yeah, I'm not sure how the Army does their PRT.
• 1:35:43
  Brian McFadden: This is only for certain.
• 1:35:46
  Testecleese: Elite groups.
• 1:35:47
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:35:48
  El Guapo: Yeah, so…
• 1:35:49
  Brian McFadden: Rangers, you know, Special Forces-type groups.
• 1:35:54
  Testecleese: Yeah. So, you're saying… you're telling me that the average woman in the foxholes with the men still has to do fewer push-ups and sit-ups?
• 1:36:03
  El Guapo: No, no, no, it's just… yeah, yeah, no, no.
• 1:36:05
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, they do.
• 1:36:06
  Testecleese: Yeah, this is just elite… this is just elite groups. Well, we don't put women on the front lines, remember?
• 1:36:12
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, we do now.
• 1:36:13
  Testecleese: I thought we didn't still. I thought that was still a thing where we still kept the women behind the front line, if, like…
• 1:36:19
  Testecleese: Should actual hot conflicts break out, we don't send the women, but the women that are already there are obviously good enough fight.
• 1:36:25
  El Guapo: Yeah, yeah.
• 1:36:27
  Testecleese: Which means…
• 1:36:28
  Brian McFadden: Second.
• 1:36:29
  Testecleese: Which makes it very interesting. How do you handle that in the Navy? Should it come to an actual conflict? Oh, we can't send this ship, there's women on it, we can't send this shit, this ship, there's women on it.
• 1:36:37
  El Guapo: Barriers, destroyers, so…
• 1:36:40
  Testecleese: of women.
• 1:36:41
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:36:42
  Testecleese: Even submarines now have women on them.
• 1:36:44
  El Guapo: Yeah, I don't think… I think I need to guess.
• 1:36:47
  El Guapo: We'll see.
• 1:36:50
  El Guapo: Well, you hear about the… you hear about the fucking captain that ran the ship of a…
• 1:36:55
  Brian McFadden: Yes, they are allowed to serve in the frontline combat and battlefield roles if they meet the required standards.
• 1:37:02
  Testecleese: Okay, so that's why the Army changed
• 1:37:04
  Testecleese: revised their standards to make sure that… just like, what was it, I think it was New York State we talked about, like, 10 years ago that wanted to… that reduced the standards for a female firefighter. It was like, whoa, whoa, whoa, what do you mean she only has to carry half as much sand down, you know, the 10 flights of stairs?
• 1:37:20
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:37:22
  Testecleese: It's a cool…
• 1:37:22
  Brian McFadden: If I'm in fascinated, and I can't walk downstairs myself, I still need her to be able to carry me downstairs.
• 1:37:28
  Testecleese: I don't have an SCBA, you know, a self-contained breathing apparatus. I can't just breathe clean, healthy air. I'm breathing in all this smoke that's been rising to the 10th floor for hours, you know?
• 1:37:40
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:37:41
  Testecleese: And now she can't get me out of here, and that's what I…
• 1:37:44
  Brian McFadden: Let's amazing.
• 1:37:44
  Testecleese: Right at what's due, New York was like, no, you're right, we can't do something like this, but California went ahead and did it anyway, and look what happened. They're yelling at you, because you shouldn't have been somewhere where there was a fire.
• 1:37:56
  Testecleese: And it's like, I'm sorry, I didn't realize the Chipmunk was gonna eat through my fucking power lines in the middle of the night and start a fire because the switch was on, you know?
• 1:38:03
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:38:07
  El Guapo: I'm not sure what…
• 1:38:09
  Testecleese: Ship the Higgins is, but what's going on?
• 1:38:13
  Brian McFadden: let's see here… I think it was…
• 1:38:19
  Brian McFadden: Let me look it up here real quick.
• 1:38:23
  Brian McFadden: It is… a, harley Burke got a Destroyer.
• 1:38:30
  Testecleese: Okay.
• 1:38:31
  Brian McFadden: And they had an engineering… air engineering casualty that broke out.
• 1:38:35
  El Guapo: Earlier.
• 1:38:37
  Brian McFadden: And the incident was immediately contained by the crew, and there are no reported injuries. While the Navy did not explicitly use the term fire, citing unnamed U.S. officials described the situation as fire limited to one piece of equipment that did not spread flames. So basically.
• 1:38:57
  Brian McFadden: It was a, electrical fire.
• 1:39:00
  Testecleese: Yeah, no.
• 1:39:01
  Brian McFadden: It allows the ship's electricity and propulsion for several hours.
• 1:39:05
  Testecleese: So this must have been right next to the, the engine room, then.
• 1:39:09
  Brian McFadden: Rendering the 300 sailors aboard the Higgins essentially sitting ducks, unable to control the destroyer's movements for a time.
• 1:39:18
  Testecleese: I say that, but you get dropped…
• 1:39:20
  El Guapo: Anchor, do they have one or two?
• 1:39:23
  El Guapo: Yeah, recur… recurre…
• 1:39:25
  Testecleese: It's not terrible.
• 1:39:26
  Brian McFadden: Harrier.
• 1:39:27
  Testecleese: Detroit.
• 1:39:27
  Brian McFadden: Destroyer, they captured.
• 1:39:29
  El Guapo: Yeah, they got two.
• 1:39:30
  Testecleese: stories.
• 1:39:30
  El Guapo: I mean, I don't know what I think…
• 1:39:32
  Brian McFadden: I don't think they were in a place where it was shallow enough to drop the anchor.
• 1:39:38
  Testecleese: You don't need shallow water to drop anchor.
• 1:39:40
  El Guapo: Yes, you do.
• 1:39:41
  Brian McFadden: But the whole purpose of this article was, this is the fourth fire in as many weeks that has disrupted the fleet.
• 1:39:50
  Testecleese: Which makes me think we need to bring in some of these ships for, proper maintenance.
• 1:39:55
  Brian McFadden: Camp, where were they in?
• 1:39:58
  Testecleese: I… I served 7 years on 2 different vessels. I only saw a handful of fires my entire time.
• 1:40:07
  El Guapo: And more…
• 1:40:07
  Brian McFadden: I never more… I didn't see any fires.
• 1:40:10
  Testecleese: Most of them were because, on the Carroll Vincent and dry dock, because people left oily rags behind, then someone, a shipyard guy came in and welded and, you know, sparked all over it.
• 1:40:20
  Brian McFadden: I mean, the Gerald Ford just came back to port.
• 1:40:24
  El Guapo: Today.
• 1:40:25
  Brian McFadden: And they almost did a whole year… they did 11 months on a deployment, so…
• 1:40:30
  El Guapo: Ugh, I know.
• 1:40:32
  Testecleese: By the way, I saw a carrier,
• 1:40:35
  Testecleese: from the cruise ship, when I was near Norfolk.
• 1:40:38
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, that was a horrible photo.
• 1:40:40
  Testecleese: It was a terrible photo. Well, I had to zoom way in in the fog.
• 1:40:44
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:40:45
  Testecleese: I was like, oh, that is it! I was like, there are jets on that sucker!
• 1:40:47
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, that's a carrier.
• 1:40:49
  Testecleese: get to see these suckers very often, unless you're on it. I was like, they must be doing workups or something, or else we wouldn't be able to get this close to be able to see it, because the cruisers or destroyers would keep us far enough away.
• 1:41:00
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:41:03
  Testecleese: It sounds like something terrible's going on with all these fires, and they seem to be almost all electrical fires.
• 1:41:08
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:41:09
  Testecleese: What's going on?
• 1:41:11
  Brian McFadden: That'd be a training issue, too.
• 1:41:15
  Testecleese: You know what, you think it's the EMs? Or you think it's the shipyard workers using, crappy equipment?
• 1:41:22
  Brian McFadden: I mean, this is happening out to sea and in port, so who knows?
• 1:41:27
  Testecleese: In what you expect, because you're doing all sorts of stuff all the time to test it.
• 1:41:30
  Brian McFadden: You don't expect it.
• 1:41:32
  Testecleese: Yeah, you're supposed to get it out of the way in port and during workups first.
• 1:41:37
  Testecleese: You have no idea what an EM is, do you?
• 1:41:40
  Brian McFadden: Who, me?
• 1:41:41
  Testecleese: Yeah.
• 1:41:42
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, it's electrician's mate.
• 1:41:44
  Testecleese: Alright, alright.
• 1:41:45
  Brian McFadden: I was a photographer's mate. I was a P.H.
• 1:41:48
  Testecleese: I know, I just wasn't sure if you knew what all the different engineering rates were, because I couldn't tell you what every, topsider did, let alone air death.
• 1:41:57
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, I know most of the rates.
• 1:42:00
  Testecleese: Yeah, I never got my, eastwas.
• 1:42:05
  Brian McFadden: I got that.
• 1:42:06
  Testecleese: Yep.
• 1:42:07
  Brian McFadden: And my, and my Air Wing, air, Air Force.
• 1:42:12
  Testecleese: Well, I was in the process of doing it on the carrier that I had my seizure and got carted off.
• 1:42:16
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:42:17
  Testecleese: And I was up to the short-term memory thing.
• 1:42:19
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:42:19
  Testecleese: And my chief was like, you need to do it, you're an E5. I was like, I understand, but I'm gonna be embarrassed if I go out and learn all this shit, then stand in front of a board and try to recite all this information to them. I was like, I'm gonna make us all look terrible.
• 1:42:31
  Testecleese: Right. He's like, we'll help you out. I was like, you say that until you ask me a basic question that I should know about the top side, or even engineering that I don't work with, then I'm gonna go.
• 1:42:41
  El Guapo: Like…
• 1:42:43
  Testecleese: Like, I knew what an uninterrupted battery supply was, for example.
• 1:42:46
  Testecleese: But if someone just said, hey, what's a UBS for? I've been like, what the fuck is a UBS?
• 1:42:51
  Testecleese: You know?
• 1:42:53
  El Guapo: I'm sure you guys know what…
• 1:42:56
  Testecleese: UBS uninterrupted Battery Supply is, if you guys both got surface qualified.
• 1:43:00
  El Guapo: No, no.
• 1:43:02
  Testecleese: So if engines go down, the batteries automatically kick on instantly, and nothing shuts off.
• 1:43:08
  Brian McFadden: But, well… In layman's terms, like, what we know it as is the, you…
• 1:43:14
  Brian McFadden: the UPS, you know, the unrestricted power supply. You can buy them online, you can buy them at Office Depot, Walmart, you know, people plug things into it that they want to be protected if the power goes out, it's still running.
• 1:43:28
  Testecleese: Your power goes through the battery, and if power stops going into the battery, the battery continues to provide power until.
• 1:43:34
  Brian McFadden: I mean, a lot of people back in the day, when they had desktop computers and didn't have batteries in their computers, they would have one of those hooked up to that, so that if the power went out, you could… you had time to back it up and shut it down.
• 1:43:46
  Brian McFadden: Yeah. Before you lost… before you lost all the data you were working on.
• 1:43:50
  Testecleese: I'm on a laptop right now, plugged into the wall, and I can unplug it right here, pull the wire up, like, just like that, and it's…
• 1:43:58
  Brian McFadden: I imagine that you still, yeah, I mean…
• 1:44:00
  Brian McFadden: I mean, when I got home today, my battery's… my battery on my laptop was pretty much dead, because I'd been using it for a couple of days in the hospital.
• 1:44:08
  Brian McFadden: But, same thing here, you know? I'm running on a laptop.
• 1:44:13
  Testecleese: Oh, shit, unless you're doing crazy work these days, you don't need anything bigger than a laptop to do…
• 1:44:18
  Testecleese: Most of your computer stuff.
• 1:44:21
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:44:22
  Testecleese: Like, the white When we were looking for a new laptop for me.
• 1:44:26
  Testecleese: she kept pulling up these laptops for, like, 600 bucks, and I was like, I don't need any of that.
• 1:44:32
  Testecleese: Oh, yeah, it's got, you know, 4 processors, yadda yadda yadda going on. Yeah, but I'm not playing, like, World of Warcraft, trying to interact with 10,000 people at the same time.
• 1:44:40
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:44:41
  Testecleese: You know, I'm not trying to…
• 1:44:42
  El Guapo: friggin'…
• 1:44:43
  Testecleese: mine crypto. I was like, I want to go on the internet and look up an article and livestream. Like, oh, yeah, I know, 180.
• 1:44:50
  Brian McFadden: Should be mining crypto.
• 1:44:52
  Testecleese: I need more processing power than I, to do that.
• 1:44:56
  Brian McFadden: I'm joking.
• 1:44:57
  Testecleese: You know what might be fun, though, is to get a whole shit ton of, processors, build, like, a giant wall of it, and only turn it on in the winter.
• 1:45:05
  Testecleese: Keep it out in the garage, so it never, like, overheats.
• 1:45:08
  El Guapo: Right.
• 1:45:09
  Testecleese: Just mine crypto.
• 1:45:11
  Testecleese: That's why I keep being shocked, like, Google, for example, should put their servers in the Arctic.
• 1:45:16
  Testecleese: Like, up in, like, northern Alaska?
• 1:45:19
  Testecleese: even bury them underground, and then put giant Sterling engines on top of them that work on the difference of temperature.
• 1:45:26
  Testecleese: And then you'll spin a wheel, and you'll create… you'll take that waste heat and turn it into energy you can pump right back into your server farm.
• 1:45:33
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:45:35
  Testecleese: I think it's a brilliant idea.
• 1:45:37
  Testecleese: Especially with these data centers, they're getting enormous, they draw massive amounts.
• 1:45:42
  Brian McFadden: Oh, people… people… that's a big thing here in Michigan, you know, because, like, in the town next to me.
• 1:45:48
  Brian McFadden: They're all… they're trying to fight a data center coming in, but the problem… problem is, the government officials are all excited about them, you know?
• 1:45:57
  Brian McFadden: But they're getting gift bags from them.
• 1:45:59
  Testecleese: I think the real problem is no one actually knows what a data center is for.
• 1:46:02
  El Guapo: Nate?
• 1:46:03
  Testecleese: I keep seeing people say, like, oh, you think they need this much space to store your family photos? Like, no, this is so fucking AI can think!
• 1:46:11
  Testecleese: This is to develop AI, and if we don't do this, China's gonna keep doing it.
• 1:46:18
  Testecleese: And…
• 1:46:19
  Brian McFadden: But the problem with it here in Michigan is they're destroying farmlands for data centers.
• 1:46:25
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:46:25
  Testecleese: That's something I brought up earlier, we're destroying farmland to do houses and, data centers.
• 1:46:33
  El Guapo: But, I mean…
• 1:46:34
  Testecleese: They're talking about putting another one over here in West Virginia, and it's literally in the middle of nowhere. Like…
• 1:46:40
  Brian McFadden: Fine.
• 1:46:41
  Testecleese: Further away from society than I am.
• 1:46:44
  Brian McFadden: That's pretty far away.
• 1:46:46
  Testecleese: Yeah, and they're gonna build their own power plant out in the middle of nowhere, just to feed this thing, and then any excess energy gets sent back into the grid to reduce costs for everyone else.
• 1:46:54
  Brian McFadden: Not gonna happen.
• 1:46:56
  Testecleese: Well, they're saying, if we make too much energy, we'll give it to you for free. If we don't… if we don't make enough energy, we'll buy it from you at market rate.
• 1:47:03
  El Guapo: I'm surprised with all the water they consume, they don't use steam to generate their own energy, you know?
• 1:47:09
  Testecleese: Same idea as a Sterling engine, you could just use the waste heat to boil the water and spin a turbine, right?
• 1:47:16
  El Guapo: Yeah.
• 1:47:17
  El Guapo: But anyways, hey guys, let me get outta here.
• 1:47:20
  Brian McFadden: Alright.
• 1:47:20
  El Guapo: Alright, I'll talk to you guys later.
• 1:47:23
  El Guapo: Alright, bro.
• 1:47:25
  Brian McFadden: How much more you want to just cover? We can probably shift a lot of this to another show.
• 1:47:30
  Testecleese: Maybe, but I'd like to.
• 1:47:33
  Brian McFadden: Do two words…
• 1:47:34
  Testecleese: Apple, at least.
• 1:47:34
  Brian McFadden: Alright, let's do two more, and let's call it a day.
• 1:47:37
  Testecleese: Oh, shit, alright then, oil tanker got hijacked off the coast.
• 1:47:42
  Brian McFadden: 2 to 3.
• 1:47:44
  Testecleese: Huh?
• 1:47:45
  Brian McFadden: 2 to 3, you know, cause I'm tired.
• 1:47:48
  Testecleese: I got it.
• 1:47:50
  Testecleese: Oil tank got hijacked off the coast of Yemen, it's on its way to Somalia. I'm not sure what's gonna happen with that.
• 1:47:55
  Brian McFadden: Which part of Somalia? Somalia or Somaliland?
• 1:47:58
  Testecleese: land? That's a good question. And I'm wondering, is it gonna make it there, or is it going to be, taken by the United States?
• 1:48:06
  Testecleese: Germany ran their mouth about Trump, again.
• 1:48:10
  Brian McFadden: Good.
• 1:48:11
  Testecleese: So, Trump pulled 5,000 troops out of Germany, and the Germans… Can't find anyone to serve.
• 1:48:19
  Testecleese: Because they don't want to be… they keep… citing World War II,
• 1:48:25
  Testecleese: And the German government's like, yeah, but we need to be able to defend ourselves. Yeah. So, without the United States there to defend them, no one's there to do it, so…
• 1:48:35
  Brian McFadden: Right, and another thing is, you know, people are saying, well, he can't bring them back to the U.S, but he can shift them to a U.S.-friendly country in Europe, like Poland.
• 1:48:46
  Testecleese: Why can't he bring him back to the U.S?
• 1:48:48
  Brian McFadden: It's… it's congressionally mandated.
• 1:48:52
  Testecleese: That we have to have more troops across the world than everyone else does?
• 1:48:56
  Brian McFadden: I don't know what it actually says, but I know there's a… I know there's stipulations of what he can do with the troops in Europe.
• 1:49:04
  Brian McFadden: But he can definitely move them to a more friendly American country.
• 1:49:08
  Testecleese: Yeah, Poland, like you said.
• 1:49:10
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:49:11
  Brian McFadden: And they'd love to have them in Poland, you know, because they're right next to Russia, so, you know…
• 1:49:16
  Testecleese: Even France, the French sent an aircraft carrier over the Middle East. I'm still not sure what they're doing.
• 1:49:22
  Testecleese: It's their only aircraft carrier.
• 1:49:33
  Testecleese: Oh, this is interesting, too. Hagseth is accusing Mark Kelly, the senator, of leaking classified briefing details to.
• 1:49:40
  Brian McFadden: I would not doubt that a bit.
• 1:49:42
  Testecleese: to include the fact that the United States Navy might run out of money by July if it's not funded properly.
• 1:49:49
  Testecleese: Cool. Which is why… They came out and told us we need how many billions of dollars to…
• 1:49:56
  Testecleese: Dude, I think they…
• 1:49:56
  Brian McFadden: warmer in.
• 1:49:57
  Testecleese: They basically said, rearm?
• 1:50:02
  Testecleese: But, I mean, what are we gonna do when the sailors and the Marines don't get their paychecks?
• 1:50:09
  Testecleese: You know what we're gonna do? We're gonna do fucking nothing. And you know what the sailors and the Marines are gonna do? They're gonna keep doing their goddamn job, or else.
• 1:50:14
  Brian McFadden: That is what they do.
• 1:50:16
  Testecleese: Yeah, cause they'll go to prison if they don't.
• 1:50:18
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:50:25
  Testecleese: Okay, I'm sorry, I mentioned the 5K leaving Germany.
• 1:50:28
  Testecleese: He's… Trump is also talking about… more withdrawals from Europe?
• 1:50:35
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:50:36
  Testecleese: And Congress isn't particularly happy about this, but if these guys don't want us there, and Congress doesn't want us there, then why the fuck are we there?
• 1:50:44
  Brian McFadden: Exactly.
• 1:50:45
  Testecleese: And could you imagine if Trump started treating NATO the way all these other countries do?
• 1:50:50
  Brian McFadden: You're awesome.
• 1:50:51
  Testecleese: He's demanding that they do their part or we leave. Why don't we just say, fuck it, kick our feet up, kick our feet up with our ocean privilege, because we have the Pacific and the Atlantic to protect us, watch Europe get wiped out.
• 1:51:05
  Brian McFadden: Yep, in a heartbeat.
• 1:51:06
  Testecleese: Yeah, and it's like, oh, well, they're coming for you next. Yeah, you gotta get here.
• 1:51:10
  Testecleese: And I understand that's possibly what this immigration thing is about, was letting them in the country.
• 1:51:16
  Brian McFadden: Well, Trump fixed that.
• 1:51:18
  Testecleese: Yeah, but a handful of whack jobs that got in the country without proper vetting is not what you need to take over a country. Right. I mean, unless you're China, because China looks long-term.
• 1:51:29
  Testecleese: Yeah. You know, they're thinking 50 years from now. That's why China's not fucking with Trump, because they know a weaker president will come along, who will do what China wants, just like Biden did.
• 1:51:43
  Testecleese: The UN finally said something about Iran executing all these people.
• 1:51:48
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, they did nothing.
• 1:51:51
  Testecleese: Yeah, oh, yeah, strongly worded letters, right?
• 1:51:53
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, the UN's as bad as the Republicans.
• 1:51:57
  Testecleese: Exactly. This wasn't… I found this neat, though.
• 1:52:03
  Testecleese: Iran fired on U.S. United States Navy ships.
• 1:52:08
  Brian McFadden: It's not good.
• 1:52:09
  Testecleese: No, and the missiles are shot out of the sky.
• 1:52:13
  Testecleese: And then the United States destroyed 6 Iranian small boats. Rubio, secretary of State, right?
• 1:52:22
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 1:52:23
  Testecleese: Yeah. Came out and was like, they shot at us! What kind of idiot doesn't shoot back?
• 1:52:28
  Testecleese: And all I could think was Democrats, because they made it illegal to shoot back, or to even own a gun.
• 1:52:33
  Brian McFadden: Yeah.
• 1:52:33
  Testecleese: Supposed to get shot and die?
• 1:52:35
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:52:37
  Testecleese: Anything else, you know, you wanna talk about?
• 1:52:41
  Brian McFadden: There was something I saw pop up, and I thought I put it in, but I guess I didn't.
• 1:52:45
  Testecleese: I might have erased it, I'm not sure.
• 1:52:47
  Brian McFadden: Fine. The Trump-class ships that they're coming out with?
• 1:52:52
  Testecleese: Yeah, I haven't heard anything about him in a while.
• 1:52:55
  Brian McFadden: Basically, they're bringing out, like, he's… he's… they're coming out with new battleships that are gonna be named after Donald Trump.
• 1:53:05
  Brian McFadden: They're gonna cost about the same amount as an aircraft carrier.
• 1:53:09
  Testecleese: Oh my god.
• 1:53:10
  Brian McFadden: They're gonna make 30 of them.
• 1:53:12
  Testecleese: You said battleships?
• 1:53:13
  Brian McFadden: Battleship, bringing back the battle. Battleships. Battleship, yeah.
• 1:53:17
  Testecleese: Like, 18-inch guns, what the fuck is that for?
• 1:53:21
  Testecleese: Holy crap.
• 1:53:22
  Testecleese: Well, I mean, they are incredibly deadly ships, and battleships are…
• 1:53:26
  Brian McFadden: And… and they are not going to be jet… they're not going to be like the Aegis-class ships are, they're going to be nuclear-powered.
• 1:53:35
  Testecleese: Oh, not jet fuel.
• 1:53:36
  Brian McFadden: Yes.
• 1:53:39
  Testecleese: Interesting!
• 1:53:40
  Testecleese: One reactor, or two?
• 1:53:42
  Brian McFadden: I… they didn't go that far into detail on there.
• 1:53:45
  Testecleese: You can't tell us everything about them, as they're brand new, but battleships are named after states, right?
• 1:53:50
  Brian McFadden: They were in the past, but now this one's gonna be named after Donald Trump.
• 1:53:54
  Testecleese: Well, all the classes, but just like the en… The…
• 1:53:59
  Testecleese: Fuck, what's the new aircraft? Aircraft?
• 1:54:02
  Testecleese: Yeah, forward cars, but they still have names after individual people.
• 1:54:07
  Testecleese: Right? Huh.
• 1:54:09
  Testecleese: So I'm wondering, are we still gonna do states? Because we're gonna run out of states if we're gonna.
• 1:54:12
  Brian McFadden: I highly doubt it, because they're naming him the first one after Donald Trump, so, you know.
• 1:54:16
  Testecleese: So the Trump class, the Trump?
• 1:54:18
  Brian McFadden: Yeah, I don't… USS Trump, I don't know what they're gonna call it in the end, but yeah.
• 1:54:23
  Testecleese: Oh, it might be.
• 1:54:23
  Brian McFadden: I don't even know when the thing will actually ever get built, you know, because Donald Trump ain't gonna be in office long enough for the ship to actually be built.
• 1:54:34
  Testecleese: What is he anticipating to bring back battleships?
• 1:54:38
  Brian McFadden: I had no idea.
• 1:54:39
  Testecleese: I mean, the last time we used battleships was the Persian Gulf, right? And that was just to shell the shores, not to actually fight at sea.
• 1:54:46
  Brian McFadden: Right.
• 1:54:48
  Testecleese: Interesting stuff.
• 1:54:50
  Testecleese: Alright, well… Ryan, that's, that's our turd.
• 1:54:55
  Brian McFadden: Yep.
• 1:54:57
  Audio shared by Testecleese: Let's go ahead and pinch this one off.
