- 0:19Speaker 1: He's basically kind of blown me off, said not on
- 0:22Speaker 1: du podcasts. I even tried the course his wife into
- 0:26Speaker 1: influencing him to come on. It just never came to
- 0:30Speaker 1: fruition until I post a picture of a fucking puppy
- 0:34Speaker 1: on Facebook and he's like, all right, I'm in. I
- 0:37Speaker 1: didn't know the power of the puppies?
- 0:38Speaker 2: Is it for real? I didn't either, because I did
- 0:41Speaker 2: not grow up Jerremy did not grow up with pets.
- 0:44Speaker 2: I've never owned a dog until jeez, what five six
- 0:48Speaker 2: years ago? Yeah, when we took in you know when
- 0:54Speaker 2: did they call it when they're rescue rescue?
- 0:56Speaker 1: Yeah, yep.
- 0:57Speaker 2: Which I tried to give back after about a week
- 1:01Speaker 2: and then my wife grabbed him. But long story short
- 1:06Speaker 2: is I never thought I would I would be a
- 1:07Speaker 2: dog person. I never learned to get a dog again,
- 1:09Speaker 2: and it is one of the most important relationships in
- 1:12Speaker 2: my life.

- 1:53Speaker 1: Oh oh oh Harbor Park Yeah yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 1:56Speaker 1: that's all right. Yeah, that's where I first saw you guys,
- 1:58Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, these guys are all plus
- 2:01Speaker 1: you know, twenty five years ago. I was twenty five,
- 2:04Speaker 1: you know, so yeah, you know how that goes. Yeah, honestly,
- 2:08Speaker 1: I just joke around with thanks so much for coming
- 2:10Speaker 1: on the show. I have been a big follower of yours.
- 2:15Speaker 2: Uh.
- 2:15Speaker 1: We you know, had our Daniel Street days together. We
- 2:18Speaker 1: used to play. Now you've been playing at Stonebridge a
- 2:20Speaker 1: little bit in the last few years. It's it's a
- 2:24Speaker 1: pleasure and an honor. And I want to start the
- 2:26Speaker 1: show off with with your battle. And obviously you're very
- 2:31Speaker 1: upfront on social media of you know what you're going through,
- 2:36Speaker 1: and it's it's really hard to imagine what you are
- 2:40Speaker 1: going through for someone that you know doesn't do the
- 2:44Speaker 1: battle that you do on a daily basis and and
- 2:46Speaker 1: still perform and work and a father and a great
- 2:49Speaker 1: father at that. I see all the things you do
- 2:51Speaker 1: with your kids and your wife, and you know, it's
- 2:55Speaker 1: an ought to be sitting here at this table. Thanks.
- 2:57Speaker 2: Yeah, those are very generous words. And thanks for having
- 2:59Speaker 2: me here, of course. Yeah, I mean it's it's it's uh.
- 3:03Speaker 2: I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy. It is
- 3:08Speaker 2: about as horrible as a thing a person can go through. Ever,
- 3:15Speaker 2: it really just robs you of just about just about
- 3:19Speaker 2: everything and your life. And I I I'm in this
- 3:23Speaker 2: battle because I love this life that I have and
- 3:27Speaker 2: I love my family, I love my kids, I love
- 3:29Speaker 2: my bands, I love my community. I mean, I just
- 3:33Speaker 2: I've had such a blessed life and I'm not ready
- 3:37Speaker 2: to let it go. So you know the name of
- 3:41Speaker 2: my my Facebook group that I talk about this stuff,
- 3:44Speaker 2: it's called No Stone Unturned. So you know, I don't
- 3:49Speaker 2: want it to pressure your audience, so I'll just make it,
- 3:53Speaker 2: keep it on the surface. But once I, I uh,
- 3:57Speaker 2: kind of accepted the diagnosis. And for those who don't
- 4:04Speaker 2: know my story is I was diagnosed in twenty twenty
- 4:07Speaker 2: with stage four prosseas cancer de novo, which means that
- 4:11Speaker 2: right out of the gate it was metastasized. I am like,
- 4:17Speaker 2: I think like a one percent of men that get
- 4:24Speaker 2: that aggressive of a prostate cancer at my age. I
- 4:28Speaker 2: was diagnosed at forty eight, and it was obviously surprising,
- 4:37Speaker 2: but it could have been avoided. And this is the
- 4:42Speaker 2: message that I came to talk about today, is that
- 4:45Speaker 2: you know, I was one of these people that didn't
- 4:47Speaker 2: go to the doctors. I wasn't a typical thirty year old.
- 4:51Speaker 2: You know, I was taking vitamins, I was trying to
- 4:54Speaker 2: eat well. I had my vices, you know, my twenties
- 4:58Speaker 2: and thirties. You know, I I drank and smoked, and
- 5:02Speaker 2: you know, I had a lot of good times, but
- 5:05Speaker 2: you know, I took care of myself. And so when
- 5:10Speaker 2: I went to my primary care physician and I had
- 5:16Speaker 2: some blood in my urine, initially, you know, it was
- 5:20Speaker 2: mid thirties, I believe, and then again in early forties,
- 5:28Speaker 2: and at those times they ran a PSA test. So
- 5:32Speaker 2: a PSA test is just a simple blood test that
- 5:34Speaker 2: costs next to nothing, and it just gives you an
- 5:38Speaker 2: idea of these cells that are not supposed to be
- 5:41Speaker 2: in your bloodstream. I mean, that's the most simple way
- 5:43Speaker 2: that I can I can put it. The normal range
- 5:47Speaker 2: is from zero point one to three point nine. But
- 5:55Speaker 2: for there to be a problem, anything over point one
- 6:01Speaker 2: is a red flag depending on your circumstances. But because
- 6:06Speaker 2: I didn't have a family history, so there's no genetics
- 6:09Speaker 2: there and I was young, my PSAs were coming in
- 6:14Speaker 2: the first one, I believe it was high two's. The
- 6:19Speaker 2: second one in my early forties was high threes. So
- 6:26Speaker 2: my primary care physician, he didn't do anything wrong, but
- 6:33Speaker 2: if there was more awareness, he would have said, hmm,
- 6:38Speaker 2: this is strange. This guy is forty years old, he's
- 6:44Speaker 2: got a PSA in the high threes, he has no
- 6:48Speaker 2: family history, and he's young. It doesn't make any sense.
- 6:55Speaker 2: Let's have you come back next year. Let's just keep
- 6:58Speaker 2: an eye on it. That's it as all it would
- 7:01Speaker 2: have took. I think it's like a thirty dollars test
- 7:03Speaker 2: if I came back the next year. Or of course,
- 7:06Speaker 2: you know, it's like I'm like every other thirty forty
- 7:09Speaker 2: year old that yeah, yeah.
- 7:10Speaker 1: It's like living our life, doing our thing.
- 7:12Speaker 2: Yeah. And I was having like back pain by changing
- 7:16Speaker 2: my mattress every other month, you know. And it was
- 7:19Speaker 2: tumors that were growing in my in my spine. And
- 7:26Speaker 2: the thing is is that it's tricky when you hit forty, right,
- 7:31Speaker 2: I mean, you don't know what's old age, right, you
- 7:33Speaker 2: know what's you don't know what's something to be concerned about, right.
- 7:36Speaker 2: So it was a lot of timing, you know, like
- 7:40Speaker 2: just a lot of bad timing. I was diagnosed in
- 7:43Speaker 2: twenty twenty COVID. I was having incontinence type symptoms. February.
- 7:52Speaker 2: I was actually up in Vermont at Dave col Francisco's house,
- 7:57Speaker 2: and I remember turning into him, is it show no, Okay?
- 8:01Speaker 2: I remember turning to him and saying like, yeah, I'm
- 8:04Speaker 2: just kind of goofing around at the time. And so
- 8:07Speaker 2: I when you get past forty, is it like really
- 8:09Speaker 2: hard to pee? And uh, you know, of course everybody's like, oh,
- 8:14Speaker 2: oh yeah, you got wait wait dude, you know you
- 8:17Speaker 2: got a lot more coming than that, you know, and
- 8:19Speaker 2: you just kind.
- 8:20Speaker 1: Of you chock it up. I'm getting older.
- 8:22Speaker 2: Yeah, but there's this little voice and you know, and
- 8:25Speaker 2: your gut saying oh, still ain't right. And my gut
- 8:31Speaker 2: would have brought me to the doctor, but you couldn't
- 8:33Speaker 2: get a doctor's appointment.
- 8:35Speaker 1: Oh yeah, they're going to there's a telemed Yes, bullshit.
- 8:38Speaker 2: I couldn't even get that really. So by the time
- 8:41Speaker 2: that I saw my primary care physician, it was September.
- 8:45Speaker 2: My PSA was in the high fifties. I believe a
- 8:50Speaker 2: month after that it was in the seventies, so, you know,
- 8:55Speaker 2: and and he sent me for a biopsy and the
- 8:57Speaker 2: rest is history. But there was no chance. There was
- 9:00Speaker 2: no chance at that point. So the message is people,
- 9:06Speaker 2: if you are in your forties or or even I mean,
- 9:10Speaker 2: it really applies to anybody, and it could be in
- 9:12Speaker 2: your thirties. You know, and you know, if you do
- 9:14Speaker 2: get a PSI test for whatever reason and it's it's
- 9:18Speaker 2: more than point one, just be aware. You know. It's
- 9:21Speaker 2: not to say there's anything wrong, but when they talk
- 9:26Speaker 2: about early detection, it's not just a tagline. It is everything.
- 9:34Speaker 2: And you have to think about it like this is.
- 9:37Speaker 2: If you have one weed in your yard, you could
- 9:41Speaker 2: take care of it pretty easily, right, I mean, it's
- 9:44Speaker 2: not gonna be great like that day in the line.
- 9:45Speaker 2: You can either cut it out, you can spray it
- 9:47Speaker 2: with some roundup no, noison't it or you can burn it. Right,
- 9:52Speaker 2: You're going to ruin that little piece of the yard
- 9:55Speaker 2: for a while, but then it'll it'll come back and grow.
- 9:59Speaker 2: But once that any line goes white and the wind
- 10:02Speaker 2: comes and it blows those seats all over the yard,
- 10:07Speaker 2: it's either what are you gonna do? I set the
- 10:09Speaker 2: whole yard on fire. That's radiation, right, What are you
- 10:13Speaker 2: gonna do? You're gonna cut the whole thing out? That's surgery,
- 10:17Speaker 2: you know. Are you gonna spray it all with with poison?
- 10:20Speaker 2: That's chemotherapy? That's the sad reality. Don't let that any
- 10:27Speaker 2: line blow in.
- 10:28Speaker 1: The yard, and that's great analogy. Yeah, so you've you
- 10:33Speaker 1: so you've you've been through it all the chemo, the
- 10:37Speaker 1: I know you've done a lot of trials and stuff, right.
- 10:40Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I don't want to get too good in
- 10:41Speaker 2: the weeks with this. I have not done traditional chemotherapy,
- 10:47Speaker 2: which is the loss of taxil and to scene, you know,
- 10:50Speaker 2: the the real nasty stuff, and not not necessarily in
- 10:58Speaker 2: protest of anything. It's it's more of one of those
- 11:01Speaker 2: things where it's like I will keep that tool in
- 11:03Speaker 2: my pocket and use it only if absolutely necessary, because
- 11:08Speaker 2: I am a believer that although it is effective, it's also.
- 11:16Speaker 1: Creates a lot of other weeds.
- 11:19Speaker 2: So I'm a little well, you know, little little hesitant
- 11:24Speaker 2: to do that. So that's why I have been trying
- 11:28Speaker 2: different trials. They've come a long way, you know, the
- 11:32Speaker 2: therapy is is coming a long way. But it's all
- 11:34Speaker 2: very very new, and it's all very very fresh. You know.
- 11:40Speaker 2: I landed. Those who are following my I landed is
- 11:42Speaker 2: the ICU after my first injection on this trial, and
- 11:47Speaker 2: I've been out of work for the last three months.
- 11:49Speaker 2: Matter of fact, my social life has been pretty much
- 11:53Speaker 2: nurses and doctors up until this point. Why I wanted
- 11:57Speaker 2: to come on this podcast.
- 11:58Speaker 1: Okay, and no again, I'm so happy you came. You know,
- 12:08Speaker 1: like you said, we don't have to go crazy with this,
- 12:11Speaker 1: but like I really do want to harp on. You know,
- 12:14Speaker 1: my grandfather died of colon cancer, so I'm obviously at risk.
- 12:19Speaker 1: You know, I've I actually probably waited a little too long.
- 12:22Speaker 1: But I did have my first colonoscopy. They said forty five.
- 12:24Speaker 1: I got it at forty forty nine. But I was good,
- 12:29Speaker 1: I was clean. My mother just beat breast cancer at
- 12:34Speaker 1: the young age of seventy nine. And and the whole
- 12:38Speaker 1: reason was, you know, an age like that is she
- 12:41Speaker 1: you know, she'd always because her sister had it, so
- 12:43Speaker 1: she always checked herself and got you know six months
- 12:46Speaker 1: you know, screenings and and you know, it's we could
- 12:50Speaker 1: have a whole debate about you know, healthcare in this country,
- 12:54Speaker 1: but I think you know, you spend the money up
- 12:58Speaker 1: front to get these tests is going to gave you
- 13:00Speaker 1: a lot on the back end if you can catch
- 13:02Speaker 1: something early, like you said, like catch that dandy lyon
- 13:05Speaker 1: and uh and it's you know it is it is
- 13:08Speaker 1: what it is.
- 13:10Speaker 2: You know, Yeah, save yourself the pain, man, I mean
- 13:12Speaker 2: I know it's inconvenience and for some people it's uncomfortable,
- 13:16Speaker 2: but trust me, cancer is more uncomfortable.
- 13:18Speaker 1: Yeah, do it.
- 13:22Speaker 2: And I'm not here to preach you.
- 13:23Speaker 1: No, no, your life, you know.
- 13:25Speaker 2: But if you're one of these people sit down home
- 13:27Speaker 2: right now listening to this, and you're like, I got
- 13:29Speaker 2: something going on, maybe I should check it out, go
- 13:32Speaker 2: check it out.
- 13:33Speaker 1: And if you don't, you know, I like my doctor.
- 13:37Speaker 1: I have, you know, at odds with him sometimes about
- 13:40Speaker 1: certain things. I just think he speeds me out of
- 13:41Speaker 1: the office, if you know what I mean.
- 13:43Speaker 2: That's the system.
- 13:44Speaker 1: Yeah, fast talk, get me in and get me out.
- 13:46Speaker 1: You know. It's all about you know, numbers and nothing
- 13:49Speaker 1: else and medicine.
- 13:50Speaker 2: And it's not their fault.
- 13:51Speaker 1: No, it's not. I've been saying for you know a
- 13:56Speaker 1: few years now, like ever since I've gone down rabbit
- 13:59Speaker 1: holes of shit. Uh, you know, it's just doctors. You know.
- 14:04Speaker 1: The saying I always say in the show is they
- 14:06Speaker 1: practice medicine. You know, they haven't perfected it, That's right,
- 14:09Speaker 1: you know, So that's right. I don't know, have you
- 14:12Speaker 1: gotten any holistic people.
- 14:15Speaker 2: I was over here doing a salt yoga.
- 14:21Speaker 1: Yeah, yesterday as Matterfest. Where's that that is?
- 14:24Speaker 2: My friend Jen Morritz opened up a salon plugged for
- 14:28Speaker 2: Jen Nice fantastic by the way too. So they do
- 14:33Speaker 2: three therapies there. They have red light therapy, they have
- 14:37Speaker 2: a salt room, and then they have a red light
- 14:39Speaker 2: sauna in there. And this was all inspired by my
- 14:45Speaker 2: Jen's mom had cancer. She had gotten relieved from the
- 14:50Speaker 2: red light therapy. So John turned this into his business
- 14:53Speaker 2: and fantastic.
- 14:55Speaker 1: Awesome.
- 14:55Speaker 2: Yeah, I've done man, I've read in the gamut. Yeah,
- 15:01Speaker 2: you know, I've ran the gamut. I uh, when I
- 15:04Speaker 2: when I decided that I was going to choose to
- 15:07Speaker 2: live and fight because I'm gonna make sure everyone understands
- 15:12Speaker 2: what fighting means and fighting cancer, it's how much pain
- 15:16Speaker 2: can you deal with? That's literally what it comes down to.
- 15:20Speaker 2: You know, that's your fight. You know how much pain
- 15:23Speaker 2: can you tolerate and how how how far you're willing
- 15:26Speaker 2: to go with it. So you know, it's like, I
- 15:34Speaker 2: don't I don't care what people think. If there's any
- 15:40Speaker 2: kind of validity to it and it's not going to
- 15:43Speaker 2: be toxic to me, I'm gonna try it. I drank
- 15:49Speaker 2: food grade hydrogen peroxide for a month. I have done
- 15:55Speaker 2: the whole fenn bendazol thing with the you know, the
- 15:59Speaker 2: goat de warmer Jesus. I mean there's so much blue
- 16:09Speaker 2: methyl I remember, you know, So I mean there's there's
- 16:14Speaker 2: I mean, you can just get lost in this stuff.
- 16:17Speaker 2: And I would say that the battle of research, which
- 16:21Speaker 2: which I consider myself a researcher at this point, if
- 16:24Speaker 2: not an expert to a certain extent, which my colleges
- 16:30Speaker 2: even comes to me for questions for you. And I'm
- 16:35Speaker 2: not saying that the brag. I'm saying that to to
- 16:38Speaker 2: illustrate how much work I put into learning my disease
- 16:44Speaker 2: and everything I could I know about it. So it's
- 16:47Speaker 2: taken me down a lot of rabbit holes. And you
- 16:51Speaker 2: know the supplement game, that's that's another one, you know,
- 16:55Speaker 2: where people get wrapped up in these supplements because it's
- 16:58Speaker 2: like you can you could take one supplement, take their claim,
- 17:01Speaker 2: you know, and and you're you're into that, right, and
- 17:04Speaker 2: then there's another one that claims the same thing, and
- 17:06Speaker 2: you will get lost and trying to vet through what
- 17:09Speaker 2: is actually effective and what's just total utter bullshit. That's
- 17:14Speaker 2: that's that's the fight there with the holistic end of things,
- 17:18Speaker 2: and of course, I mean it's everybody's trying to make
- 17:20Speaker 2: a buck, of course, so you have to wead through that,
- 17:24Speaker 2: but you eventually land in a place of what I
- 17:29Speaker 2: call my my logic making apparatus if you will, you know,
- 17:36Speaker 2: And that's how I discovered a podcast. One of the
- 17:39Speaker 2: first podcasts that I came across was as a doctor
- 17:43Speaker 2: by the name of Peter Attilia, and he is He's incredible.
- 17:50Speaker 2: I mean, this guy is is very new age. You know,
- 17:53Speaker 2: he calls in medicine three point zero. You know, it's
- 17:57Speaker 2: a lot of the things that were ringing true for
- 17:59Speaker 2: me when I was listening to RFK talk about the
- 18:02Speaker 2: healthcare system, and which is what made me, you know, government,
- 18:08Speaker 2: I want to listen to this. Then that's probably a
- 18:14Speaker 2: great pivot to where we have come, you know, as
- 18:20Speaker 2: a society now where we all get locked in our
- 18:24Speaker 2: echo chambers and that's it. That's every opinion that we have,
- 18:30Speaker 2: every everything that we approach or we see the world
- 18:33Speaker 2: and we react to it, it's just from our logic
- 18:37Speaker 2: making apparatus. So if there's only two logic making apparatuses,
- 18:42Speaker 2: whether it's MSNBC or Fox News at the time, right now.
- 18:45Speaker 2: That's that's evalve since then. But this is where we
- 18:49Speaker 2: were right and it's like, depending on what you watched,
- 18:53Speaker 2: that's that was the fight you were staking down and nobody,
- 18:57Speaker 2: nobody wanted to step outside of their their tent.
- 19:00Speaker 1: Yeah, I think a good A good point to that
- 19:02Speaker 1: too is I don't think people realize it. I don't
- 19:04Speaker 1: think people that watch MSNBC or Fox News realize that
- 19:08Speaker 1: if they get into a discussion of debate and argument,
- 19:12Speaker 1: that they're really just regurgitating what was told to them instead.
- 19:16Speaker 2: Of and it's what we all do. You know.
- 19:17Speaker 1: People like to say, well, if you're a critical thinker
- 19:19Speaker 1: and stuff like that, but like I like to form
- 19:23Speaker 1: my opinions on what's in front of me. Do I
- 19:27Speaker 1: watch Fox News? Yeah, but not too much. I don't
- 19:30Speaker 1: really watch any of the other stuff unless Shark Tanks PC.
- 19:35Speaker 1: You know. I just it's it's it's become I don't know,
- 19:39Speaker 1: we're pretty much the same age. Like when we grew up.
- 19:41Speaker 1: You know, it was Peter Jennings and Dan Rather and
- 19:44Speaker 1: and and uh who's the guy AND's yeah there's one
- 19:47Speaker 1: more guy there, Ted Coppel, Oh yeah, yeah, you know,
- 19:53Speaker 1: and it's it's it's I don't know if we just
- 19:56Speaker 1: didn't we were just young and didn't really pay attention.
- 19:59Speaker 1: I don't. I just didn't see the you know, the
- 20:03Speaker 1: the way it slanted towards a certain party. I didn't
- 20:06Speaker 1: see that back then, nor was I looking for that.
- 20:10Speaker 2: So you were paying attention to politics.
- 20:12Speaker 1: I was, you know why. You know what got me
- 20:13Speaker 1: in to politics was Michael ducaccus So because I was
- 20:17Speaker 1: I was, you know, eighth ninth grade, somewhere in their
- 20:19Speaker 1: seventh eighth, seventh, eighth grade, I think. And he was
- 20:22Speaker 1: the governor of Massachusetts. So I was living in Massachusetts
- 20:25Speaker 1: the time, and I wanted him to win. I didn't
- 20:28Speaker 1: know why, just because he was from Massachusetts, right, I
- 20:30Speaker 1: didn't know these policies or that stuff. I was freaking,
- 20:33Speaker 1: you know, fourteen years old or whatever. But that's what
- 20:37Speaker 1: kind of made me notice, you know, politics a little bit.
- 20:41Speaker 1: And you know, then the kids were running for class
- 20:42Speaker 1: president and all this stuff, and I knew some people
- 20:45Speaker 1: that were you know, town people, and uh, I mean
- 20:49Speaker 1: I voted for Clinton in ninety two in high school.
- 20:51Speaker 1: I liked Clinton, you know, but if again, you don't
- 20:54Speaker 1: have Twitter or Facebook all this, you know, like you said,
- 20:57Speaker 1: these these echo chambers and these like I laugh every
- 21:00Speaker 1: morning I go on Twitter because like I'll see, you know,
- 21:03Speaker 1: some far left or far right person right something, and
- 21:06Speaker 1: then it's just like, you know, every comment is going
- 21:08Speaker 1: to be from the opposite.
- 21:09Speaker 2: You know.
- 21:10Speaker 1: It's just it's like why, like why, even like I
- 21:12Speaker 1: I fall victim to it. Sometimes I'll comment on stuff,
- 21:15Speaker 1: but I just try not to anymore. But I just laugh.
- 21:19Speaker 1: Now it's like, I mean, it's you can't win. Like
- 21:22Speaker 1: we were gonna talk about stocks, right, yeah, so like
- 21:25Speaker 1: obviously it went down for three days and then it
- 21:27Speaker 1: blasted up yesterday, and now like Adam Schiff is like, oh,
- 21:30Speaker 1: we're gonna investigate. I'm like, it's just like you guys
- 21:34Speaker 1: like all just chill out for a second. Like they're
- 21:37Speaker 1: like literally saying that Trump is a fucking scheme, Like
- 21:39Speaker 1: what these guys don't need any more money. I don't.
- 21:42Speaker 1: I don't understand like that logic to it, but but
- 21:48Speaker 1: it's it's just it's it's literally like New England weather,
- 21:50Speaker 1: it changes every fucking day. And I don't understand why
- 21:54Speaker 1: people just even bother to argue online or disown your
- 21:59Speaker 1: family men, or because they like Trump or they like Biden,
- 22:02Speaker 1: like I just don't know they're victims. Yeah, it's just
- 22:04Speaker 1: you know, it's crazy.
- 22:06Speaker 2: I stopped being a victim. Well mostly because of my journey,
- 22:12Speaker 2: you know, so you know, like so because of of
- 22:15Speaker 2: I'm searching for truth and my battle. It's it's bringing
- 22:20Speaker 2: me down these these different pathways that I probably normally
- 22:24Speaker 2: wouldn't So I'm hearing the voices of people that I'm
- 22:30Speaker 2: not normally listening me too, And it's that that's the value.
- 22:36Speaker 2: That's the value. You don't have to agree with with anyone,
- 22:41Speaker 2: but to shut them out and not listen, you know
- 22:45Speaker 2: that That's that's where I I think that's where where
- 22:49Speaker 2: at least my engagement you know, changed, because if you
- 22:56Speaker 2: just if you get into a conversation with someone who
- 22:59Speaker 2: just cares about in the argument, there's no point because.
- 23:02Speaker 1: They're never going to back down. They're never gonna get
- 23:04Speaker 1: they're wrong.
- 23:04Speaker 2: You're you're gonna you're you know, you're gonna gragidate, you're
- 23:06Speaker 2: talking about it's gonna say, am I to talking?
- 23:08Speaker 1: You know?
- 23:08Speaker 2: And this was me and social media, you know, you know,
- 23:11Speaker 2: prior to that, it was like okay, you know, it's
- 23:13Speaker 2: like I have a platform here. I can't let this
- 23:17Speaker 2: nonsense go on. You know, I'm going to be the
- 23:19Speaker 2: truth sayer. And you know, I'm you know, and I'm
- 23:22Speaker 2: not taking any sides, but you know, I could I
- 23:24Speaker 2: could feel that most people think I'm liberal because of
- 23:26Speaker 2: the stances I'm taking on these issues, and I am
- 23:30Speaker 2: an issue. I'm like you, I look, I look, I
- 23:33Speaker 2: see and how does this feel to me? And then
- 23:36Speaker 2: I might listen them to you know, it's like, well,
- 23:38Speaker 2: what what's the argument against? What's the argument for? We
- 23:41Speaker 2: stopped doing that. We've literally stopped doing that. And the
- 23:46Speaker 2: saddest part about it is, and these are all just
- 23:48Speaker 2: my opinions, obviously, And the saddest part of is, like
- 23:52Speaker 2: the the MSNBC's in the Fox News is they all
- 23:58Speaker 2: work for the same person.
- 24:00Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
- 24:01Speaker 2: So it's like they got us fighting against each other.
- 24:04Speaker 1: That's what they want, right, Like in his.
- 24:06Speaker 2: War of hypocrisy all the time, the pleabs, if you will, right,
- 24:11Speaker 2: and all they're all they're bringing to is the dollar,
- 24:15Speaker 2: Like that's their lobby. Their lobby is is the elites, right,
- 24:19Speaker 2: Like that's the That's the craziest part. Like Tucker calls
- 24:22Speaker 2: you can come out on Fox News and rail against
- 24:24Speaker 2: these elites. But he's going home to a he's one
- 24:28Speaker 2: of the million. And look, these these these are these
- 24:33Speaker 2: are entertainers, okay, they're politicians, are professionals, they're professional lobbyists.
- 24:39Speaker 2: That's what they do.
- 24:41Speaker 1: And they're they're you know, just as versed as a
- 24:43Speaker 1: you know, an actor or an actress.
- 24:45Speaker 2: They speak publicly, and the better you can do it,
- 24:49Speaker 2: you know, the more effective you're going to be. So
- 24:51Speaker 2: I don't know, you know, is is Trump con man? Probably? Probably,
- 24:55Speaker 2: but maybe that's exactly what we need right now. And
- 25:00Speaker 2: you know, I I, well, I put a pin in
- 25:05Speaker 2: that right now because every everything changed for me politically.
- 25:13Speaker 2: Do you know who Ray Dalio is?
- 25:15Speaker 1: Okay?
- 25:15Speaker 2: So, Ray Dalio is one of the most successful hedge
- 25:18Speaker 2: fund managers around. Matter of fact, fun Bags played at
- 25:22Speaker 2: his right hand man's fourth of July twenty twenty Goat Island.
- 25:28Speaker 2: It was really cool, by the way.
- 25:29Speaker 1: Yeah, I bet probably some good amenities there, huh.
- 25:34Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, private fireworks shows. You know, it's like
- 25:37Speaker 2: the end of the gig. It's like, well, we don't
- 25:39Speaker 2: need this liquor, so you guys take whatever you want,
- 25:42Speaker 2: like big fats.
- 25:42Speaker 1: Of frigging patron and see here you are talking about
- 25:45Speaker 1: one of your favorite places of play.
- 25:47Speaker 2: See that works to see. But so Ray Dalio, uh,
- 25:53Speaker 2: he wrote, he wrote a series of books, and I
- 25:57Speaker 2: got interested in it because I am fascinated about generations,
- 26:00Speaker 2: you know, like I'm a gen xer G expert. You know,
- 26:03Speaker 2: our parents were boomers. But he breaks down all of
- 26:07Speaker 2: these cohorts, you know, and he paints the picture. When
- 26:11Speaker 2: he doesn't paint a picture, he makes the argument of
- 26:15Speaker 2: why a he's so successful, but more so why everything
- 26:20Speaker 2: is kind of just uh cyclical, you know, everything just
- 26:25Speaker 2: goes in cycles. Since since I forgot how far back
- 26:29Speaker 2: he took it, I mean, like, you know, to the
- 26:32Speaker 2: ancient Greeks, and it's.
- 26:36Speaker 1: Like basically history repeating itself or more is.
- 26:39Speaker 2: We we the way he describes it. And I'm sorry, Ray,
- 26:42Speaker 2: if you're listening to this, hope, because I'm going to
- 26:45Speaker 2: I'm going to trash this. It's it's it's not easy
- 26:48Speaker 2: to read, and it's about a long time ago when
- 26:50Speaker 2: I read it, but it's it's as relevant today than
- 26:53Speaker 2: it ever could be, to the point where he predicted
- 26:56Speaker 2: exactly where we're going to be in this moment, right,
- 26:59Speaker 2: and he breaks it down in two seasons where we go,
- 27:04Speaker 2: we go through humanity. We go through these seasons.
- 27:07Speaker 1: So there's a.
- 27:08Speaker 2: Springtime where it's like you just came out of a winter,
- 27:12Speaker 2: and winter is always war most in most instances, right,
- 27:16Speaker 2: So it's like everybody's exhausted. You know, nobody wants to
- 27:20Speaker 2: fight anymore, nobody cares about political issues. We just want
- 27:26Speaker 2: to get along. Right, It's the springtime of this new cycle,
- 27:32Speaker 2: and then you know it's like that's great. People starting
- 27:35Speaker 2: to feel good again, they're starting to get their confidence back,
- 27:38Speaker 2: they're moving up, and we enter into a summer. And
- 27:41Speaker 2: the summer is when we start having some fun. Right.
- 27:45Speaker 2: I think of the Roaring twenties, right, Like we're the
- 27:47Speaker 2: eighties right where it's like.
- 27:52Speaker 1: Yeah, decade, yeah, two years zombie, but like fuck I
- 27:55Speaker 1: wish that, well, maybe I'll probably be dead if I
- 27:57Speaker 1: was well.
- 27:59Speaker 2: And it's like, because we set the new world order
- 28:02Speaker 2: after World War Two, right when we were we not
- 28:06Speaker 2: that we didn't have casualties and losses, but we were
- 28:09Speaker 2: the ones who were lending the rest of the world
- 28:13Speaker 2: the gold, so to speak, right, Like they were giving
- 28:16Speaker 2: us their goal and we were giving them money. So
- 28:19Speaker 2: this is how we got our finances tacked to the
- 28:23Speaker 2: dollar is literally from that war. So by the time
- 28:27Speaker 2: that war was over, America said, well, we have all
- 28:33Speaker 2: the manufacturing, we hold all the gold. You guys are
- 28:36Speaker 2: in rubble. You need to rebuild your infrastructure. We're going
- 28:43Speaker 2: to call the shots, we're going to make the rules.
- 28:46Speaker 2: And you know, the rest of the world because of
- 28:49Speaker 2: there were you know, in that situation and they needed
- 28:52Speaker 2: to rebuild and everything. And I said, okay, well, you
- 28:54Speaker 2: guys seem nice enough, We're you know, we're going to
- 28:57Speaker 2: go with this. It seems all right, and that, you know,
- 29:00Speaker 2: that's that's how we ended up. You know, where we
- 29:03Speaker 2: are where we we are the rulers of of the
- 29:06Speaker 2: of the of the universe, you know, economy, and everything's
- 29:09Speaker 2: tagged to the dollar. And it really wasn't until the nineties.
- 29:13Speaker 2: I mean, everybody's you know, it's like it's it's uh,
- 29:16Speaker 2: you know, everybody's having the greatest time in the middle
- 29:19Speaker 2: classes getting screwed the entire time through the eighties, and
- 29:23Speaker 2: nobody's really even saying anything about it. And then you
- 29:25Speaker 2: hit the nineties, and that's really when you start hearing
- 29:28Speaker 2: that you know that tenor and you know, there's only
- 29:33Speaker 2: so long you can go just printing money until it
- 29:38Speaker 2: weakens your status in the world. And you know, So
- 29:45Speaker 2: there's a quote here and I had to write it
- 29:46Speaker 2: down because I don't know if you know who Tom
- 29:49Speaker 2: Bill you is man, and he's what he's part of
- 29:50Speaker 2: my my logic making apparats. He had the greatest quote. Yes,
- 29:57Speaker 2: so he said, you didn't hear people freak out out
- 30:00Speaker 2: until the nineties because people didn't know how this game
- 30:03Speaker 2: was going to play out. It's so self evident that
- 30:06Speaker 2: now this game of competitive advantage, let them make flat
- 30:11Speaker 2: screens for cheap, but you're going to have to hand
- 30:14Speaker 2: back Detroit as the ghost town of violence. And that
- 30:19Speaker 2: says so much. Right, So it's like we were we
- 30:23Speaker 2: were perfectly fine letting China, you know, make all our
- 30:27Speaker 2: products and domestic product for us for on the cheap
- 30:33Speaker 2: in order to you know, in order for our consumer base,
- 30:37Speaker 2: you know, to get stuff cheat, but at what cost,
- 30:41Speaker 2: at the cost of all of our manufacturing moving And
- 30:44Speaker 2: now we're at the precipice of it right now, sees right,
- 30:46Speaker 2: and now we're seeing we're seeing the results of that
- 30:49Speaker 2: so so you know, summer moves into fall. Right, Fall
- 30:53Speaker 2: is when you're when you are you know, harvesting, you
- 30:58Speaker 2: know all the work you're supposed in. This in the summer, okay,
- 31:01Speaker 2: And we had a beautiful fall for a long time.
- 31:04Speaker 2: Now we are in winter, and winter only ends one
- 31:09Speaker 2: of three ways, and winner is a basically is a
- 31:14Speaker 2: separation between either an internal conflict which we or a
- 31:19Speaker 2: domestic conflict. Right, I want to look at that way, right,
- 31:22Speaker 2: I don't think I need to illustrate that we're all
- 31:23Speaker 2: living it. The second one would be an international political
- 31:28Speaker 2: order is breaking down, which we witness happening, rolling frolling
- 31:33Speaker 2: our eyes as we see. And the three being when
- 31:36Speaker 2: the debt reaches unsustainable levels. Now this is all in
- 31:39Speaker 2: Ray's book from eight years ago.
- 31:43Speaker 1: Right before COVID and.
- 31:46Speaker 2: His I think his prediction was by twenty thirty, this
- 31:50Speaker 2: was this is where we were going to be sitting,
- 31:52Speaker 2: where we were going to be in a major influx point.
- 31:56Speaker 2: And now we're going to see how it plays out.
- 32:00Speaker 1: Yeah, it's going to be a wild ride. Uh.
- 32:04Speaker 2: But my point of it is is that I think
- 32:06Speaker 2: that like there was peat, there was calm. I got
- 32:09Speaker 2: calm from reading that book. Strangely, Yeah, because kind of
- 32:12Speaker 2: if you know, I think that that's what religion is
- 32:14Speaker 2: for people, right, yeah, where if you feel like it's
- 32:17Speaker 2: already been predetermined, it takes your worry away.
- 32:22Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 32:23Speaker 2: So now it's like when I when I watched these politicians,
- 32:27Speaker 2: I just I just see them as a cartoon character
- 32:29Speaker 2: and you.
- 32:30Speaker 1: And you live through it. And you know, if we're
- 32:32Speaker 1: heading into the Winner, you know there there will be
- 32:35Speaker 1: a spring. You know, it's just how you navigate through
- 32:39Speaker 1: that winner. And yeah, that's that's I want. I want
- 32:42Speaker 1: to read that book. That sounds very interesting. You know,
- 32:47Speaker 1: where where where? So we'll stick on this topic for
- 32:49Speaker 1: a little bit, like where do we You know, I
- 32:51Speaker 1: was reading a lot about, you know, with China and
- 32:54Speaker 1: the tariffs now going up to like one what where?
- 33:00Speaker 1: So either way, our iPhones are going to be a
- 33:02Speaker 1: lot more expensive, yes, whether we bring the manufacturing back
- 33:06Speaker 1: to the States where we have to pay you know,
- 33:08Speaker 1: a unionized company salaries of I work for Sikorski, so
- 33:12Speaker 1: I know what these guys make to basically sit around
- 33:15Speaker 1: all day. Did you see the fucking meme that China
- 33:19Speaker 1: put out? It was like it was like it was
- 33:22Speaker 1: fucking It was like fucking ten fucking three hundred and
- 33:26Speaker 1: fifty pounds dudes in like T shirts too small, sitting
- 33:30Speaker 1: at a desk like making micro chips.
- 33:34Speaker 2: I heard about this.
- 33:35Speaker 1: I'll show you afterwards.
- 33:36Speaker 2: Yeah, I heard about it. And the opinion in the
- 33:42Speaker 2: context that I heard it was that they thought that
- 33:45Speaker 2: it was probably a Westerner who did it.
- 33:48Speaker 1: Oh could have been yeah, you know, you just don't
- 33:49Speaker 1: know anymore.
- 33:50Speaker 2: It was like China, China is very like they're very
- 33:53Speaker 2: you're not really memish people, No, they're very they're very
- 33:56Speaker 2: down to business. Yeah, right, Like, so Trump makesed the
- 33:58Speaker 2: you know, the big theater, right, what is China do? Right?
- 34:01Speaker 2: We will fight to the end and that's it.
- 34:03Speaker 1: That's right.
- 34:04Speaker 2: And then the next thing is is we're you know,
- 34:06Speaker 2: at thirty four percent additional tariff.
- 34:08Speaker 1: Right.
- 34:09Speaker 2: So I had to do a little resources too, because
- 34:11Speaker 2: like again I don't I don't follow mainstream news, but
- 34:15Speaker 2: if you follow finance is like is every it's it's
- 34:20Speaker 2: it's it's it's the decoder. If you follow markets and
- 34:24Speaker 2: you fillow finance and uh, let me let me set
- 34:28Speaker 2: it straight. I am not a financial gub by any means.
- 34:31Speaker 2: When I got sick. I had to figure out how
- 34:33Speaker 2: I was going to make sure my family was not
- 34:38Speaker 2: left impoverished. So I started giving myself a crash course
- 34:44Speaker 2: on finance, like how are people holding money? You know,
- 34:48Speaker 2: I don't have a lot of money to work with,
- 34:49Speaker 2: but I bought like one share of Apple, you know,
- 34:52Speaker 2: and let's take off from there. Let's see what we
- 34:54Speaker 2: can do. And I learned a lot about markets and
- 34:57Speaker 2: how it works, and that brings you down to how
- 35:00Speaker 2: the actual everything works. Everything is tied to the financial
- 35:05Speaker 2: markets and protecting them and the safety of those those
- 35:08Speaker 2: those tradelines. Everything, every political decision, every law, every international law.
- 35:14Speaker 2: It's just is a big game of monopoly. And now
- 35:19Speaker 2: it's global, right anyway, So so this is a arms
- 35:28Speaker 2: race for AI because AI is the future. The last
- 35:35Speaker 2: last thing I read was that AI, I believe, is doubling.
- 35:39Speaker 2: The power of AI is doubling at like five to
- 35:42Speaker 2: six months, five to six months, it's doubling. And that's
- 35:46Speaker 2: without even AI getting involved in creating their power. So
- 35:51Speaker 2: we got to assume that, like that's just going to
- 35:53Speaker 2: keep you know, multiplying and multiplaying, and just so everyone understands,
- 35:57Speaker 2: it's like, well, what does that mean, think of about this,
- 36:01Speaker 2: Think about a piece of software that has the answers
- 36:10Speaker 2: to everything. Super intelligence, right, super intelligence, This is where
- 36:16Speaker 2: we're heading. Super intelligence and robots. I mean, it's gonna
- 36:20Speaker 2: tire sounding crazy, but Tesla's ready to roll out. Their
- 36:26Speaker 2: robots are ready, Like I think I was talking about
- 36:28Speaker 2: like next year into manufacturing jobs. Right, And it's not
- 36:32Speaker 2: like we don't have robots right now, just because they
- 36:33Speaker 2: don't look like humans, you know, that are doing the
- 36:36Speaker 2: work of man. And you know this is this is
- 36:39Speaker 2: scary for a lot of people, especially if you're work
- 36:41Speaker 2: in manufacturing. And so look, I don't know if if
- 36:46Speaker 2: Trump's a genius or the worst thing that's ever happened
- 36:49Speaker 2: to this planet. But all I know is this is
- 36:53Speaker 2: that we are in a arms race against China. For ai.
- 36:57Speaker 2: China owns all of the materials to make these chips
- 37:00Speaker 2: or of the abundance, right, yeah, would they say the
- 37:03Speaker 2: seven earth metals or something? Right, This is this is
- 37:05Speaker 2: how they're retaliating against us. So they're taking they're taking
- 37:08Speaker 2: the they're taking a long plan. Right. They figure that
- 37:15Speaker 2: in ten to fifteen years, when the demand for these
- 37:21Speaker 2: chips that need these resources are are like cranking right,
- 37:26Speaker 2: like they're going to be cranking out. We're never going
- 37:29Speaker 2: to be able to sustain that, right, we don't have
- 37:31Speaker 2: those resources to sustain that. We're going to get by in
- 37:33Speaker 2: the short term, but ten to fifteen years now, if
- 37:36Speaker 2: they're playing a long game on us, we're toast, right, okay,
- 37:40Speaker 2: And you don't know how America is going to respond
- 37:43Speaker 2: to this. There's going to be different people in charge,
- 37:45Speaker 2: you know, And that's the uncertainty of this whole thing.
- 37:47Speaker 2: So I'm not so much like against what Trump's doing.
- 37:50Speaker 2: I think he's playing a very dangerous game. But I
- 37:53Speaker 2: don't know if anybody else would have the balls to
- 37:55Speaker 2: do it. I mean, I can't and I don't want
- 38:00Speaker 2: to piss anybody off, especially my liberal friends, but I
- 38:04Speaker 2: can't even think. I can't even think of Kamala Harris
- 38:08Speaker 2: or Joe Biden be in this situation right now. No,
- 38:11Speaker 2: I can't. And maybe it's like you know, it's liberals.
- 38:15Speaker 2: I mean, it's got to be the greatest gift ever
- 38:18Speaker 2: because first off, he can't do anything about it. He
- 38:20Speaker 2: got elected, and he got elected, you know, convincingly, right,
- 38:24Speaker 2: and he's willing to fall on the sword for the
- 38:29Speaker 2: country because this is political suicide to do what he's doing,
- 38:32Speaker 2: and everybody knows that this is the reason why they
- 38:35Speaker 2: keep raising the debt ceiling because nobody wants to pay
- 38:37Speaker 2: the bill. So now, yes, he's not paying the bill. Okay,
- 38:41Speaker 2: he's not that dumb, Right, you still got to get
- 38:44Speaker 2: through the next year and a half. But what he
- 38:47Speaker 2: is doing is very strategic in the sense of trying
- 38:51Speaker 2: to bring manufacturing back home because somebody's in that administration
- 38:55Speaker 2: is smart enough to see the long game that China's playing, right,
- 38:58Speaker 2: and I know we got to play catch up on that.
- 39:01Speaker 2: And he's allied a lot of these partners now because
- 39:07Speaker 2: this is where everybody's just lining up. And if ray
- 39:11Speaker 2: Dalio is right, this is going to end one of
- 39:13Speaker 2: two ways. It's either going to end with a new
- 39:16Speaker 2: dominant world order, whether it's China or the United States
- 39:20Speaker 2: remains in that position. It all depends on what's going
- 39:22Speaker 2: to happen with the dollar. You have cryptocurrency, that whole
- 39:26Speaker 2: another conversation about that that thoughts to decide. That was
- 39:30Speaker 2: born out of the corruption of the FIAT system. And
- 39:35Speaker 2: if you think that the world's getting more digital, then
- 39:37Speaker 2: you believe in cryptocurrency because it's not only holding its
- 39:41Speaker 2: value longer, it's making money. If you put one hundred
- 39:45Speaker 2: thousand dollars in your bank account, you know two years ago,
- 39:49Speaker 2: it's worth twenty percent less. So you know, like we
- 39:52Speaker 2: were taught growing up, I think you were as it
- 39:56Speaker 2: has to save money, right, save for a rainy day.
- 39:58Speaker 2: That's the worst advice in the world.
- 40:00Speaker 1: It's it's it's like, what is what I I just
- 40:02Speaker 1: put some money in a money market account, just real quick,
- 40:06Speaker 1: leave it there for five months. They offered me, offered
- 40:11Speaker 1: me one return, this is Webster bank, and I just
- 40:15Speaker 1: laughed at him. Yeah, I said, what the fuck are
- 40:18Speaker 1: you even talking about? Well, we were like, uh, we
- 40:22Speaker 1: were doing a pro because I had my money and
- 40:23Speaker 1: with him before it was like four and a half percent,
- 40:25Speaker 1: which still is nothing great, but at least it's four
- 40:27Speaker 1: and a half percent. And he goes, well, that was
- 40:30Speaker 1: like a promotion. I go, you wait, I'm confused. You
- 40:34Speaker 1: have to run promotions on interest rates for me to
- 40:37Speaker 1: invest my money with you. I said, I'm good, I'm good.
- 40:41Speaker 1: So I switched to crypto and I switched the stock markets.
- 40:45Speaker 1: And you know what I could I could keep my
- 40:48Speaker 1: money in there be safe. I guess, you know, making
- 40:51Speaker 1: it's four percent, you know, every five months, six months, whatever.
- 40:55Speaker 1: But I'm you know, we got to be ninety to
- 40:59Speaker 1: see anything thing. Yeah, you know actually honestly, no, like
- 41:03Speaker 1: I do you know, I have my four one K
- 41:05Speaker 1: at work and I have I do an Acorns account,
- 41:09Speaker 1: which you know took a huge hit, but whatever, it's
- 41:12Speaker 1: I don't again, don't look at this now, Like when
- 41:16Speaker 1: you put your money into investments exactly and you lose.
- 41:20Speaker 2: How do you know that if you're if you're somebody
- 41:21Speaker 2: working a you know, a W two job, right, you
- 41:24Speaker 2: don't know that? No, you know you look at your
- 41:25Speaker 2: four oh one k because they're you know why didn't
- 41:28Speaker 2: like the sky is falling, you know, on news and
- 41:30Speaker 2: then you look and you're down, you know, one hundred
- 41:32Speaker 2: thousand dollars.
- 41:33Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, yeah, you're going to react, right, but
- 41:36Speaker 1: well you're going to react. But you know, if you're
- 41:39Speaker 1: you know, seventy seventy five, yeah, that sucks. Yeah, there's
- 41:43Speaker 1: people great, Yeah, there's a sure sure, but that I
- 41:45Speaker 1: mean that's just the nature of the markets, and you
- 41:48Speaker 1: know they want somebody to blame. So who's the easiest
- 41:51Speaker 1: person to blame and.
- 41:52Speaker 2: Not for nothing. I mean unless those seven year olds
- 41:55Speaker 2: and I don't know this, yeah, maybe you can help
- 41:57Speaker 2: me out with this, but like you know, so they're
- 41:59Speaker 2: taking mandatory distributions, right, yeah, so unless they're down to
- 42:04Speaker 2: their last ten grand right, what's right? I don't even
- 42:08Speaker 2: know if it's affecting them though, No.
- 42:10Speaker 1: It shouldn't be, right, yeah, I mean it literally went
- 42:13Speaker 1: down and went back up in three days later. Well
- 42:15Speaker 1: so and this is and this is that's what you're
- 42:18Speaker 1: invested in as well. But if you just have a
- 42:20Speaker 1: standard four one K account.
- 42:21Speaker 2: And this is why I think moderate, this is why
- 42:23Speaker 2: I think it's a con job. And it's a beautiful conjob.
- 42:28Speaker 2: But it's a con job for the people that are
- 42:30Speaker 2: are in the play. It's not you know, it doesn't
- 42:33Speaker 2: work for it doesn't really work for your pleabes, right, like,
- 42:36Speaker 2: because we got two classes and this you know, well
- 42:38Speaker 2: we really got three now, right, you got the upper
- 42:41Speaker 2: upper you know, and then you got the upper middle
- 42:43Speaker 2: class and you basically got the middle class, right and
- 42:46Speaker 2: you know, and then you know the poor people are
- 42:48Speaker 2: are are taking the scraps, right and you need them
- 42:51Speaker 2: all you need And this is the thing where people
- 42:54Speaker 2: don't think everyone really understands. It's like you need a
- 42:57Speaker 2: class system. There's no, there's no and of course use
- 43:01Speaker 2: all my opinions.
- 43:05Speaker 1: Their facts on this show.
- 43:06Speaker 2: Yeah, Like it's like you want you want, you want chaos, right, Like,
- 43:12Speaker 2: like like these aren't anarchist type. I've never really understood
- 43:15Speaker 2: the anarchist type, right, Like I get the whole you know,
- 43:18Speaker 2: like a rock and roll you know, rail against the government,
- 43:20Speaker 2: like every libertarian kind of stance. Most of us, like
- 43:23Speaker 2: kind of I think fall somewhere in that category, you know,
- 43:26Speaker 2: like keep the government out of my pocket, right, don't
- 43:29Speaker 2: tell me what to do. You know, I'm adult enough
- 43:31Speaker 2: to handle the truth, you know, like common sense stuff.
- 43:36Speaker 2: And uh, you know, we we've we got ambushed, you know,
- 43:40Speaker 2: like we we over the last two decades, we've been
- 43:44Speaker 2: treated like children. We've been talked down to, you know,
- 43:49Speaker 2: we've been marginalized, and then we've been sought to, you know,
- 43:53Speaker 2: fight each other while they collect all of the cash
- 43:57Speaker 2: and the gold at the top.
- 44:00Speaker 1: And it's like when the stock market goes down like
- 44:03Speaker 1: it did, that wasn't the fucking upper class fucking selling
- 44:06Speaker 1: their stocks.
- 44:08Speaker 2: It was, well, well, but why does crypto work? Like
- 44:14Speaker 2: why why do why does crypto make people excited?
- 44:17Speaker 1: I mean the gains right?
- 44:19Speaker 2: And where do the games come from? The viot? Right,
- 44:22Speaker 2: it's because there's such big swings.
- 44:25Speaker 1: I can't honestly stand it, because like you go to
- 44:27Speaker 1: bed at night and it's like it doesn't stop, doesn't sleep,
- 44:30Speaker 1: it doesn't.
- 44:30Speaker 2: Well, that's if you are. If you're not in it.
- 44:37Speaker 1: If you're trying to make a quick probably it's going
- 44:39Speaker 1: to be in it.
- 44:40Speaker 2: If you're not, if you're not approaching it from a
- 44:42Speaker 2: macro type of perspective, then yeah, you're you're going to
- 44:45Speaker 2: have that anxiety and you shouldn't be doing it then, right,
- 44:49Speaker 2: why is your money in there? Because like apparently you
- 44:53Speaker 2: can't lose it, right, so you shouldn't even be playing
- 44:56Speaker 2: in there, right, And that's why people like you know,
- 44:59Speaker 2: the theat system stock system, because it's stable, right, you know,
- 45:03Speaker 2: a little up down may make a buck here, make
- 45:05Speaker 2: a buck here, you are, right, And then if you're
- 45:08Speaker 2: you know, if you have time to market right, or
- 45:10Speaker 2: you get lucky on a sock tip, maybe you buy
- 45:12Speaker 2: something low and it's all a hot but something we
- 45:14Speaker 2: do in this country, the bece is some. I mean,
- 45:18Speaker 2: it's crazy. I think this is. But it's like everybody
- 45:20Speaker 2: sells on the way down, you know, and buys on.
- 45:22Speaker 1: The that was that post you put on the other
- 45:24Speaker 1: D's right, that's right, and there's a great I was
- 45:27Speaker 1: laughing when I read that. I'm like, he's so right,
- 45:29Speaker 1: Like just people that everything's on sale and they don't
- 45:32Speaker 1: want to go to the store.
- 45:33Speaker 2: Yeah. And and look, if you believe that the correction
- 45:37Speaker 2: is going to be end up lower than what you're
- 45:40Speaker 2: willing to stomach, then absolutely get your money out of there,
- 45:44Speaker 2: you know. But we've been doing this.
- 45:46Speaker 1: Long, long, long time, right.
- 45:49Speaker 2: And you start to see the patterns, and this is
- 45:51Speaker 2: Ray Dalio's point, you know. It's like it's there's so
- 45:53Speaker 2: many deliberate things that the people in power manipulate the markets.
- 45:59Speaker 2: That is what they do. That is their biggest power.
- 46:03Speaker 2: Right when you think of the FED. Okay, who are
- 46:06Speaker 2: these people? What do they get paid? What are their names?
- 46:09Speaker 2: It's private entity right right, Like they're they're the gatekeepers
- 46:12Speaker 2: or the world or earlier, who says do we say,
- 46:16Speaker 2: do we have a vote on this? How do we
- 46:18Speaker 2: control this? How do we make sure they're not being corrupt?
- 46:20Speaker 2: Why they just keep deflating away my money. What gives
- 46:23Speaker 2: you the rights? Just keep printing more money? Oh, because
- 46:27Speaker 2: this is the only way that their country can survive.
- 46:31Speaker 2: Because we were irresponsible. We never had any intentions of
- 46:34Speaker 2: paying our debt. And then when push comes to shove
- 46:37Speaker 2: and we you know, you got one of three things,
- 46:40Speaker 2: or right, or there's a new world order. Now we
- 46:46Speaker 2: don't know how. Nobody knows how that's going to break, right,
- 46:49Speaker 2: But if it's war, we're in trouble. Yeah, And I
- 46:56Speaker 2: caution people like you really want to be fighting liberals
- 46:59Speaker 2: or or Republicans right now? Or do you want to
- 47:04Speaker 2: be coming together? Say hey, listen, we're still all Americans, man,
- 47:09Speaker 2: and there is an arms race going on for AI
- 47:12Speaker 2: that is going to establish the new world order. Do
- 47:18Speaker 2: we want to be a part of it? Or we
- 47:19Speaker 2: want to be on the other side of it? And
- 47:21Speaker 2: America is still the greatest country in the world. But
- 47:25Speaker 2: China has a point when they say that our people
- 47:27Speaker 2: has become fat, lazy and don't want to do hard work,
- 47:31Speaker 2: when when they're middle class is humping and working and
- 47:37Speaker 2: kicking ass. And if we can't recognize this soon enough,
- 47:42Speaker 2: we are going to be in a different position globally.
- 47:46Speaker 1: And so how do we as a without civil war?
- 47:53Speaker 1: How do we as a nation get to that point?
- 47:56Speaker 1: Do we need another nine to eleven? Like when nine
- 47:59Speaker 1: to eleven happened, everyone was hanging the American flags at
- 48:02Speaker 1: their house. I remember in ninety two when desert storm
- 48:07Speaker 1: and everyone I was. I had the flag on my
- 48:10Speaker 1: fucking pickup truck.
- 48:11Speaker 2: Man.
- 48:11Speaker 1: I was so patriotic, and I still am today, But
- 48:13Speaker 1: like everyone was, you know, is is it just we
- 48:19Speaker 1: have to wait till Trump is out of office? Or
- 48:22Speaker 1: I have the biggest fear that we've gone over the edge.
- 48:27Speaker 1: And I don't think we can come together as a
- 48:30Speaker 1: nation divided by politics and you know whatever communities, and
- 48:39Speaker 1: you know, I don't want to get too into it,
- 48:40Speaker 1: but like I just feel like.
- 48:43Speaker 2: I was.
- 48:44Speaker 1: I was just up in Boston and we're staying at
- 48:47Speaker 1: a hotel and I had a hat on that just
- 48:50Speaker 1: said forty five forty seven Trump hat. Right, It's actually
- 48:53Speaker 1: very inconspicuous. You really have to look at it to
- 48:55Speaker 1: notice it. And it was the Saturday that they had
- 48:59Speaker 1: the Hands off rallies around the country, and we were
- 49:03Speaker 1: at a hotel. That just happened to be around the
- 49:05Speaker 1: corner from it. So everybody's walking by the hotel with
- 49:08Speaker 1: all their signs and stuff, right, and I'm an eye
- 49:11Speaker 1: roller kind of guy on my arm or whatever. Dude,
- 49:12Speaker 1: you know, do your thing. I'm not going to spit.
- 49:15Speaker 1: The country is all about go protest whatever do you
- 49:18Speaker 1: think you want to protest. And the next morning, we
- 49:22Speaker 1: were leaving and we're at the Starbucks at the hotel,
- 49:25Speaker 1: and these three ladies walked in and I'm just sitting
- 49:29Speaker 1: there drinking my fucking coffee and I see one of
- 49:32Speaker 1: the ladies like point to my hat to a frenchke.
- 49:34Speaker 1: I don't even know what she said, but already, like,
- 49:36Speaker 1: you know, it's probably my home fault for wearing something
- 49:38Speaker 1: like that. But this is another problem I have with
- 49:40Speaker 1: this country is you should be able to the fuck
- 49:41Speaker 1: you want. Yeah, you know. So we happen to be
- 49:45Speaker 1: leaving now at the same time at Valet, and I
- 49:48Speaker 1: hold the doors open for the ladies and it's We
- 49:50Speaker 1: got rained out on Saturday, which is gonna be one
- 49:52Speaker 1: of my topics when we get the sports. We got
- 49:54Speaker 1: rained out on Saturday, and we couldn't go Sunday because
- 49:57Speaker 1: we had to let me to come home and it
- 49:59Speaker 1: was shit again. It was pouring out in the morning.
- 50:01Speaker 1: So I hold the doors open for the ladies so
- 50:03Speaker 1: they can get to their car, and I said, another
- 50:05Speaker 1: beautiful day in Boston, huh. And the lady just looks
- 50:08Speaker 1: at me, doesn't even respond, and she goes and just
- 50:12Speaker 1: keeps walking. And then now my girlfriend backs up her
- 50:16Speaker 1: car and she's got a Trump sticker on it, and
- 50:18Speaker 1: they see I just I just like, you're judging me
- 50:22Speaker 1: by my political views. Now I could be accused of
- 50:24Speaker 1: judging people by theirs.
- 50:25Speaker 2: I understand that what you're wearing Rachel mountable glasses.
- 50:29Speaker 1: They all look like Rachel Maddow.
- 50:30Speaker 2: Okay, so that isn't that like virtual singling, like your
- 50:34Speaker 2: virtual singling, virtual singling. Yes, So if you don't want
- 50:38Speaker 2: to get caught up in those type of things, why
- 50:40Speaker 2: wear the hat?
- 50:41Speaker 1: Well, I like the hat. I don't. I'm not a
- 50:47Speaker 1: I know you never really listened to the show. I'm
- 50:48Speaker 1: not the biggest Trump guy in the world. I voted
- 50:51Speaker 1: for Trump three times in a row, but the first
- 50:54Speaker 1: time I voted for me because I didn't. I wanted,
- 50:57Speaker 1: like you were talking earlier, I wanted somebody just to
- 50:59Speaker 1: fucking make cared the second time when he didn't win,
- 51:04Speaker 1: and whatever theory you want to throw out there, I
- 51:06Speaker 1: don't really care. He fluck and lost, he lost whatever
- 51:09Speaker 1: Biden won. It was during that presidency that I saw
- 51:14Speaker 1: a video about Trump that just kind of changed my
- 51:16Speaker 1: whole perception of him and his fight against child sex
- 51:20Speaker 1: slave trade. And I didn't really know that much about
- 51:24Speaker 1: his passion for eradicating it across the globe. And I'm like,
- 51:29Speaker 1: you know, this guy's I mean, you could be a
- 51:31Speaker 1: fucking asshole, but at the end of the day, these
- 51:34Speaker 1: are some of your causes. You're not an asshole, Like
- 51:36Speaker 1: you could be an asshole person, like you're that guy's
- 51:38Speaker 1: a dick, But like, is he really you know? And
- 51:41Speaker 1: everything I hear about him, like when people like, like,
- 51:43Speaker 1: I guess Bill Maher was at the White House the
- 51:45Speaker 1: other day and he came away saying, I mean, he's
- 51:47Speaker 1: just a genuinely nice guy. He's brad, She's you know.
- 51:52Speaker 2: Honestly, how many of us really stopped and looked and said,
- 52:02Speaker 2: maybe there's something to this guy. Well, I mean, like
- 52:06Speaker 2: you were a fan, right, like, you know, what do
- 52:09Speaker 2: we do?
- 52:10Speaker 1: We?
- 52:10Speaker 2: I mean, well, the thing for me was the whole
- 52:12Speaker 2: birther or thing, like that's how he entered the plittle
- 52:14Speaker 2: and then people forget this right, so it's like right
- 52:17Speaker 2: from the jump, it's like, dude, right, what are you doing?
- 52:20Speaker 2: You know, like because I always liked Trump as an entertainer.
- 52:23Speaker 2: You probably remember my post back in the day, I
- 52:25Speaker 2: really liked The Apprentice, Right, but come on, are we serious?
- 52:29Speaker 2: We're serious about like this guy being president of the
- 52:33Speaker 2: United States, Like, I mean, that was the mentality even
- 52:37Speaker 2: with the Republicans, and he just turned everybody on their
- 52:40Speaker 2: ass and everybody was angry about it, and nobody stopped
- 52:45Speaker 2: to think whether or not that was a good well
- 52:47Speaker 2: that the non Trump people, and that was only thirty
- 52:50Speaker 2: percent back then. I remember that. That was always like
- 52:53Speaker 2: hung around thirty percent. Everybody else was like, you know,
- 52:56Speaker 2: you didn't want it, you don't want that stench on you, right,
- 52:59Speaker 2: But what guy?
- 53:00Speaker 1: Where did that change? Why? Like why there'd all these
- 53:03Speaker 1: videos of you know him on the view and you
- 53:07Speaker 1: know him hanging out with Rosie O'Donnell and him hanging
- 53:10Speaker 1: out with all the stars, and then the mini runs
- 53:12Speaker 1: for president, Like there's something there and I can't figure
- 53:16Speaker 1: it out, and I research it and I'm trying to like, what,
- 53:20Speaker 1: what does he know or what do they think he knows?
- 53:23Speaker 2: I don't know, Like, I don't know this is is
- 53:24Speaker 2: it that deep or is it just or is it
- 53:27Speaker 2: they're all justin They're all in bed taka.
- 53:29Speaker 1: They are exactly right, they are.
- 53:32Speaker 2: I work for the same people now. And this is
- 53:36Speaker 2: the reason I think why Trump is popular with his
- 53:39Speaker 2: base is because, yes, he's part of that. He's always
- 53:43Speaker 2: going to enrich himself. First, yeah, he opened up a
- 53:45Speaker 2: hotel that second he became president in DC. Right, Like again,
- 53:50Speaker 2: we could have a war of hypocrisy, and the Democrats
- 53:53Speaker 2: and Liberals have their share, especially over the last four years.
- 53:55Speaker 2: And that's when you ask what changed. That's what changed
- 53:59Speaker 2: is that they got that taste of power and they
- 54:02Speaker 2: ran with it, just like every every person does when
- 54:06Speaker 2: they get that power, and they like to us and
- 54:09Speaker 2: they had us out there, you know, doing their bidding
- 54:11Speaker 2: for them. Like I'm embarrassed in some of the things,
- 54:14Speaker 2: Like I made some friends feel really shitty about not
- 54:16Speaker 2: getting a COVID shop. I gotta live with that now, Yeah,
- 54:19Speaker 2: you know.
- 54:19Speaker 1: So, but yeah, but you I didn't admit it though.
- 54:22Speaker 1: I didn't change, Yeah, they changed.
- 54:24Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, and you can win me back.
- 54:27Speaker 1: But but all right, well back to your comment about
- 54:30Speaker 1: me virtual singing by wearing that hat. My point is
- 54:34Speaker 1: I'm still a fucking gentleman holding a door for three
- 54:37Speaker 1: women walking by. Never made a comment to him about anything.
- 54:40Speaker 1: In my head, I assumed, yes, they were probably lesbian,
- 54:44Speaker 1: and they were at the rally yesterday with fucking signs.
- 54:47Speaker 1: I can assume whatever the fuck I want in my
- 54:49Speaker 1: head because that's what we're allowed to do. My thoughts
- 54:52Speaker 1: don't put true out of my mouth. Sometimes sometimes they don't.
- 54:55Speaker 1: I get myself in trouble. But I was raised correctly.
- 55:00Speaker 1: I know you were as well. I'm a gentleman. I
- 55:03Speaker 1: hold doors for women, I hold doors for kids, I
- 55:05Speaker 1: hold doors for men. I you know, compliment people when
- 55:09Speaker 1: they you know, when they need compliment. You know, you know,
- 55:12Speaker 1: I just I just I just was.
- 55:14Speaker 2: You're a good guy, just was born that way.
- 55:17Speaker 1: But but you.
- 55:17Speaker 2: Put that hat on, right, Well, that's why why you
- 55:23Speaker 2: also wore it on purpose? You can admit that.
- 55:26Speaker 1: Well I was in Boston, of course I did. It
- 55:28Speaker 1: doesn't change the way I am.
- 55:29Speaker 2: But why no, no, But it's like you you know,
- 55:32Speaker 2: it's like one would say that you're the poster child
- 55:34Speaker 2: of you know, that stereotypical Trump.
- 55:37Speaker 1: Yeah fucking ball beer, Yeah yeah yeah, like dream all
- 55:40Speaker 1: let's go.
- 55:41Speaker 2: Now, It's like, imagine if I didn't know you and
- 55:43Speaker 2: so that Trump hat on and I'm you know, this
- 55:46Speaker 2: is whatever six seven years.
- 55:47Speaker 1: Ago, it wasn't a Maga hat though.
- 55:49Speaker 2: I'm going to mean, I'm not going to be rude
- 55:51Speaker 2: to you because that's just not who I am, right right,
- 55:53Speaker 2: I'm gonna have a feeling my thing like right, like
- 55:57Speaker 2: I guess just like if I had my you know,
- 55:59Speaker 2: obombash on or whatever it was that yeah you know, yeah, yeah,
- 56:03Speaker 2: you know it. And it's like and that's why I
- 56:05Speaker 2: never did that, you know. It's like you can't, like,
- 56:07Speaker 2: I'm not going to claim to be independent and look
- 56:10Speaker 2: at things on the surface and then wear Rachel maddle
- 56:14Speaker 2: glass glasses and going like and judge people.
- 56:17Speaker 1: But why why in the world is it okay for
- 56:21Speaker 1: you know, it's not no, but for for you know,
- 56:24Speaker 1: the left to you know, do all the shit they
- 56:27Speaker 1: do to protest, which is fine. I don't care that
- 56:29Speaker 1: they're doing it. It's they're right, it's in the constitution.
- 56:33Speaker 1: But like I wear a hat that says number forty
- 56:35Speaker 1: seven on it, and you know, first of all, there's
- 56:38Speaker 1: a hat company called forty seven, you know, Like I
- 56:43Speaker 1: I just yeah, I know. And my girlfriend was like
- 56:46Speaker 1: nervous to put our Trump stickers on our car back
- 56:48Speaker 1: before the election. And god, look what's happening now, Like
- 56:52Speaker 1: Tesla's are getting fucking you know, burned up and scraped
- 56:56Speaker 1: and keyed and shit, like I.
- 56:57Speaker 2: Hope you guys are buying Tesla stuck out there?
- 56:59Speaker 1: Yeah, oh absolutely, Well then.
- 57:02Speaker 2: This is not funny.
- 57:03Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I uh, you know, I just I get it.
- 57:08Speaker 1: It just annoys me. And like I would never I
- 57:11Speaker 1: don't judge people by their political affiliations. I will, like
- 57:15Speaker 1: I said in my head, get annoyed at people that
- 57:18Speaker 1: you know, are just out in front and just are
- 57:21Speaker 1: just vile about the other side, the other party. And
- 57:25Speaker 1: I just don't think it's necessary, not solving anything. Yeah,
- 57:29Speaker 1: you know, this whole rally, what did it solve? Again?
- 57:31Speaker 1: I don't care that they did it, but like what
- 57:33Speaker 1: did it solve? And you know there's players in these rallies,
- 57:36Speaker 1: you know, there's paid people in these rallies, So you
- 57:39Speaker 1: just can't trust on face value goes.
- 57:42Speaker 2: Back to my point. You asked me in the questions,
- 57:44Speaker 2: how do we get out of there?
- 57:45Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 57:45Speaker 2: Right, because we're stuck in this war hypocrisy, Like we
- 57:49Speaker 2: agree on that. Like, so there's there's that. You were
- 57:52Speaker 2: just spinning wheels. That's why it's like, I like, I
- 57:54Speaker 2: have no idea what the tenor is out there. I
- 57:56Speaker 2: don't watch I don't watch mainstream media. I have no idea.
- 58:00Speaker 2: I just know based on what's going.
- 58:02Speaker 1: On in the financial market. Yeah.
- 58:04Speaker 2: So I was listening to a guy. I'm gonna quote
- 58:06Speaker 2: this guy mo got It. Just listen to him yesterday,
- 58:09Speaker 2: and he was kind of talking about the whole AI
- 58:11Speaker 2: and where we're going and how we get out of
- 58:13Speaker 2: this right, Like, so his his statement was, it's it's
- 58:19Speaker 2: going to become an arbitrage of people becoming incredibly rich
- 58:23Speaker 2: where money no longer has any meaning, and the majority
- 58:27Speaker 2: will be poverished because there will be no jobs. We
- 58:32Speaker 2: will literally have to figure out a way to keep
- 58:35Speaker 2: people motivated so they're just not going around killing people
- 58:38Speaker 2: and blowing shit upright, right, So these these these are
- 58:42Speaker 2: the problems.
- 58:43Speaker 1: There's a lot of Hollywood movies that describe these exact situations.
- 58:46Speaker 2: You know. So this is not this is not thirty
- 58:50Speaker 2: years from now, This is not conspiracy thirty people.
- 58:53Speaker 1: Right, Okay, this is coming fast.
- 58:55Speaker 2: Go on your phone right now and talking to an AI.
- 58:59Speaker 2: All right. I mean, it's it's here, and it's only
- 59:03Speaker 2: going to expondent every five to six months. It's doubling
- 59:06Speaker 2: in power. Think about that. The chips that we were making,
- 59:09Speaker 2: these quantum chips, they're they're they're things of science fiction.
- 59:13Speaker 2: Our world as we know it is going to change,
- 59:17Speaker 2: it's going to become unrecognizable in the next ten years.
- 59:20Speaker 2: And trying to prepare my kids.
- 59:21Speaker 1: For this, right, So, I mean I always say, and
- 59:25Speaker 1: in a just kind of a gloss over, what's what
- 59:28Speaker 1: the government wants? Is they just don't want I mean,
- 59:30Speaker 1: I think COVID was what kind of said every all
- 59:32Speaker 1: the wheels in motion was they don't want people. They
- 59:35Speaker 1: don't want people that they don't want people to go
- 59:37Speaker 1: to work, they want people, they want everyone.
- 59:39Speaker 2: Well, they got it.
- 59:40Speaker 1: They need to keep on the government. They need to
- 59:42Speaker 1: keep the world order right, they need to do that.
- 59:44Speaker 1: They need everyone, you know, buy from Amazon, Uber eat,
- 59:47Speaker 1: don't go out, work from home, you know, don't you
- 59:52Speaker 1: know it's just it's it's, it's it's already happened. It's
- 59:55Speaker 1: it's we've seen it in real time. And yes, we
- 59:59Speaker 1: busted out of that case because they couldn't hold us
- 1:00:01Speaker 1: down much longer. But we're just going to go right
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: back to it. You know, I was watching the thing
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: because I work in a company that has a union,
- 1:00:08Speaker 1: and I was there was a video about So I
- 1:00:11Speaker 1: worked for Lockheed Martin, the parent company obviously of Sikorski
- 1:00:14Speaker 1: and Lockheed makes you know, they make the fucking missiles
- 1:00:17Speaker 1: and all the fucking high tech weaponry and fighter jets.
- 1:00:21Speaker 1: And there was a Chinese assembly plant for these like
- 1:00:26Speaker 1: big fucking missiles, you know, like this, and they're just
- 1:00:29Speaker 1: fucking pumping them out, pumping them out on a machine,
- 1:00:32Speaker 1: on a fucking you know, conveyor belts and all this stuff.
- 1:00:35Speaker 1: There's no humans on the line. And then they go
- 1:00:38Speaker 1: to Lockheed Martin's plant that's all union employees, and they
- 1:00:43Speaker 1: got the thing on a stand and they're fucking hand
- 1:00:45Speaker 1: painting the shit. And you know, it's stuff I see
- 1:00:47Speaker 1: every day with the helicopters, and you know, we're producing
- 1:00:50Speaker 1: probably one to their fifty and this is arming our
- 1:00:55Speaker 1: country for war. Granted, Lockheed will sell the fucking anybody,
- 1:00:59Speaker 1: but you know, it's just it's just that's the mentality
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: of China to the United States, which goes back to
- 1:01:06Speaker 1: the fat people making chips. It's like unions, are they
- 1:01:09Speaker 1: really good for I mean, are yes, they employ people,
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: But if the end of the day they don't really
- 1:01:16Speaker 1: want people working, then we're way behind China, all right,
- 1:01:22Speaker 1: Like they got stock piles of shit. Yes, I mean
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: we have a pretty good stockpile, but nothing like what
- 1:01:29Speaker 1: they got.
- 1:01:29Speaker 2: Well, their their strength and power, you know, assuming because
- 1:01:33Speaker 2: they're just going to you know, they're just going to
- 1:01:35Speaker 2: do what we do. Right, They're going to start printing money,
- 1:01:37Speaker 2: right because they're their economies isn't toilet too, so they're
- 1:01:41Speaker 2: just going to keep pumping money. And this is why
- 1:01:42Speaker 2: crypto is going to go through the roof. Right every
- 1:01:45Speaker 2: time that they that a government prints bunny, crypto goes up.
- 1:01:47Speaker 1: You heard that here.
- 1:01:50Speaker 2: So you know, you think bitcoin is too expensive right
- 1:01:53Speaker 2: now at eighty three thousand and whatever it is, we
- 1:01:56Speaker 2: intil it's one hundred or two hundred thousand or three
- 1:01:59Speaker 2: hundred thousand are a million? Okay, because right now there's
- 1:02:02Speaker 2: only three percent of the global money in bitcoin, and
- 1:02:05Speaker 2: it's it's not billions of dollars circulating, so it's ninety
- 1:02:09Speaker 2: seven percent early right now. Yeah, so you still have
- 1:02:12Speaker 2: a chance again in I'm not well, you can also
- 1:02:14Speaker 2: be buying in it.
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: You can buy you can buy into a mid coin.
- 1:02:17Speaker 1: You have to buy a whole one. You don't buy
- 1:02:19Speaker 1: it and you just buy a a portion, a piece
- 1:02:22Speaker 1: of it. Yeah, and you're just going to ride the
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: percentage increases, you know, you.
- 1:02:25Speaker 2: Know, you don't get some gold and you know stock
- 1:02:27Speaker 2: it away. Yeah, but how we get out of this
- 1:02:31Speaker 2: is is is our nine to eleven is happening right now?
- 1:02:34Speaker 2: And like I said, I don't know what's going on
- 1:02:36Speaker 2: with the news. I don't know if liberals and Trumpers
- 1:02:38Speaker 2: are fighting the way they always did.
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: Oh yeah they are, is it of course?
- 1:02:42Speaker 2: Now?
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: Okay, it's in the last four years or his first
- 1:02:46Speaker 1: term way worse.
- 1:02:47Speaker 2: I don't you know, I don't see things.
- 1:02:49Speaker 1: That's a great lens. We'll not look true, not to mention.
- 1:02:52Speaker 2: It's like I'm putting my energy into trying to save.
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: My life, right right, yeah, yeah, don't fucking waste your
- 1:02:57Speaker 1: time in this other ship. That's for sure.
- 1:02:59Speaker 2: But a way out of this is recognizing the fact
- 1:03:04Speaker 2: that we are in a arms race with with China.
- 1:03:07Speaker 2: And look, you can sit there and you can keep
- 1:03:09Speaker 2: fighting your your Trump neighbor or your your liberal neighbor
- 1:03:12Speaker 2: and we lose this war, or you can say I'm
- 1:03:16Speaker 2: a freaking American first, you know, and you get behind
- 1:03:19Speaker 2: this president. You know, whether he's he's gonna be right
- 1:03:21Speaker 2: or wrong, we don't know, but we have to let
- 1:03:25Speaker 2: it play out and we have to hope that he's right.
- 1:03:28Speaker 1: But the problem is is the left wants him to fail,
- 1:03:32Speaker 1: of course, and that is the worst way to go
- 1:03:34Speaker 1: into this. I did not want Joe Biden to fail list.
- 1:03:38Speaker 2: But many people on the side did.
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: Of course they did, and they're idiots.
- 1:03:43Speaker 2: But here's the thing. I say, let's just stop just that.
- 1:03:46Speaker 2: That doesn't matter anymore. Let's stop what the hypocrisy wore.
- 1:03:50Speaker 2: It doesn't matter.
- 1:03:52Speaker 1: You can impeach him fucking five more times if you want,
- 1:03:54Speaker 1: you can do this that, it doesn't matter. Let's just
- 1:03:56Speaker 1: jump on like just I don't know, it's feel I
- 1:04:01Speaker 1: don't watch mainstream media a lot, but I do watch it,
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: and I I usually watch it after like a like
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: a speech or something. And I love playing the game
- 1:04:11Speaker 1: of all right. I'll watch a speech on Fox, and
- 1:04:13Speaker 1: when the speech is over, I'll go right to MSNBC
- 1:04:15Speaker 1: and see how they just fucking crush it. Then I
- 1:04:18Speaker 1: flipped back to Fox and they're all like tu, and
- 1:04:21Speaker 1: it's just hilarious. It's just like I just it's it amuses,
- 1:04:25Speaker 1: it's nonsense. It's common, it's all common. It's theater.
- 1:04:29Speaker 2: It's just and everybody riled up right now wanting to
- 1:04:32Speaker 2: freaking spit on their neighbor for note, like to stop it,
- 1:04:35Speaker 2: to stop. You're being played, right, You're all being played ye,
- 1:04:38Speaker 2: you know, we got to get together. I mean, it
- 1:04:41Speaker 2: has to happen, has to happen. Like my Trump friends,
- 1:04:44Speaker 2: my lib of friends, like cut the nonsense out man.
- 1:04:46Speaker 2: We're in a war right now and it could either
- 1:04:48Speaker 2: end in bloodshed. We're gonna end in utopia, you know.
- 1:04:51Speaker 2: But let's why would you still let be America be?
- 1:04:54Speaker 1: Why do these protesters all look the same?
- 1:05:00Speaker 2: It is something there, You're like, this show is way
- 1:05:03Speaker 2: too serious.
- 1:05:03Speaker 1: I got to mix this up now, Rachel Maddow, looking people,
- 1:05:11Speaker 1: my favorite, my favorite, my favorite.
- 1:05:13Speaker 2: Bits are like, yeah, what's like to you on Daily
- 1:05:16Speaker 2: Show where they go into the rallies and yeah, and
- 1:05:19Speaker 2: the thing is, it's like you could take you can
- 1:05:21Speaker 2: go into any of these rallies and you could cherry
- 1:05:23Speaker 2: peck these, yeah, you know, because they're they're they're there
- 1:05:27Speaker 2: for a feeling, right, Isn't politics a feeling? And I
- 1:05:32Speaker 2: think that's why Trump is so good at it, because
- 1:05:34Speaker 2: he's good at creating feelings, right, and feelings and there's
- 1:05:38Speaker 2: not the feelings that that liberals are used to, right,
- 1:05:41Speaker 2: and he's and he loves he loves needling the left.
- 1:05:44Speaker 1: And then he got you.
- 1:05:45Speaker 2: Know, elon in on the Games and with like on
- 1:05:48Speaker 2: like some stuff.
- 1:05:50Speaker 1: Was the was the poster child of the liberals, you know.
- 1:05:54Speaker 2: Just well, I mean think about you. Think about all
- 1:05:56Speaker 2: the people you know that were life liberals and ore
- 1:06:03Speaker 2: that voted for Trump this time around. I mean I'm
- 1:06:05Speaker 2: not one of them, right, right, So the party changed.
- 1:06:09Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I think they've lost their way. And
- 1:06:11Speaker 1: I really thought by Trump winning, and I say this
- 1:06:15Speaker 1: all the time, I'm waiting for I want the Democrats
- 1:06:17Speaker 1: to bring someone to the table that is young, articulate,
- 1:06:21Speaker 1: and it's just isn't these radical ideas like they're talking
- 1:06:24Speaker 1: about AOC in twenty eight. No, oh my god, what
- 1:06:27Speaker 1: are you thinking?
- 1:06:27Speaker 2: I think at newsoon is gonna be the guy.
- 1:06:30Speaker 1: Yeah, he's fucking he's he's he's cringey too, Like as
- 1:06:34Speaker 1: much as Donald Trump's cringey, he's cringey too, Like I
- 1:06:36Speaker 1: don't know, somebody like just out of the you know what,
- 1:06:38Speaker 1: he's not tone deaf, right, is he? Is? He not?
- 1:06:43Speaker 2: Well, he's going on. He's going on on on right
- 1:06:46Speaker 2: wing podcast. He's listening to the other side.
- 1:06:49Speaker 1: But he's he's doing that. He's got purpose behind that.
- 1:06:53Speaker 2: Well that's a good thing, isn't it.
- 1:06:54Speaker 1: I guess yeah, But it's it's.
- 1:06:55Speaker 2: I mean, listening to the other side, isn't that? What?
- 1:06:58Speaker 2: Like that's going to get us out of this?
- 1:07:00Speaker 1: Maybe? I mean, I'm just not hitching my wagon to him.
- 1:07:03Speaker 2: Well, I'm not hitching my wagon to anybody.
- 1:07:05Speaker 1: But like I mean, I mean, as the next I
- 1:07:08Speaker 1: think they should have put him up instead of Kamala.
- 1:07:10Speaker 1: They're just throwing anybody up out of there.
- 1:07:14Speaker 2: I think that's part of the problem, you know that
- 1:07:16Speaker 2: like we we are so we're so caught up in
- 1:07:19Speaker 2: a in a cult of personality of it all and
- 1:07:22Speaker 2: we're missing the big picture. Like we're Americans, we're supposed
- 1:07:27Speaker 2: to be together, I mean, and no one ever admits
- 1:07:31Speaker 2: they're wrong. You can't be the greatest country in the world.
- 1:07:34Speaker 2: It's just by saying it.
- 1:07:36Speaker 1: And it's okay to fail, it's okay to be wrong,
- 1:07:39Speaker 1: it's okay to change your opinion on something. And that's
- 1:07:42Speaker 1: what we lack right now. No one's ever wrong in
- 1:07:46Speaker 1: the political landscape. No one's ever wrong, No one can
- 1:07:49Speaker 1: ever I mean, you know, Trump, could you know, give
- 1:07:53Speaker 1: everyone a million dollars and the Libs would still be pissed,
- 1:07:56Speaker 1: you know, like just in vice versa, the same thing
- 1:07:59Speaker 1: when when by was you know, and and it's just
- 1:08:03Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe maybe we could maybe on this show,
- 1:08:07Speaker 1: we could like get get people back together. But like
- 1:08:10Speaker 1: you you know, you go to shows, right or you're
- 1:08:12Speaker 1: playing the shows. You don't know your crowd, but you
- 1:08:15Speaker 1: know what, everyone's there all for one reason to see
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: you guys play, drink some booze, and have a fucking
- 1:08:22Speaker 1: great night. There's no politics at the shows, that's what it.
- 1:08:29Speaker 2: R Butler.
- 1:08:31Speaker 1: Or who's the what's the uh green day? Oh yeah,
- 1:08:42Speaker 1: they fucking they changed the lyrics of their songs just
- 1:08:44Speaker 1: to fucking crush Trump. And what's the other one. I
- 1:08:47Speaker 1: saw all the Mighty Mighty bos Stones. Some guy had
- 1:08:50Speaker 1: a Trump shirt and they kicked him out of the show,
- 1:08:52Speaker 1: and like I didn't even know they were like fucking that.
- 1:08:55Speaker 1: I don't know, like whatever, But.
- 1:08:58Speaker 2: Anyway, I just think if we get to the point
- 1:09:01Speaker 2: where it's like we're doing that, like we're being rude
- 1:09:04Speaker 2: to people because of the hat they're wearing, We're kicking
- 1:09:06Speaker 2: people out because of the shirt to wearing, you know,
- 1:09:09Speaker 2: or we're censoring people on online because you don't like
- 1:09:12Speaker 2: the things they're saying. I think we're already gone and
- 1:09:15Speaker 2: that's what's changed. I think that like those of us
- 1:09:18Speaker 2: who are more moderate independence saw that, saw the Democrat
- 1:09:24Speaker 2: trying to the Democrats in this this cycle, you know, pulling,
- 1:09:30Speaker 2: pulling people to a place they didn't want to go. Yeah,
- 1:09:32Speaker 2: and uh, we're left without a home.
- 1:09:35Speaker 1: So we'll see where it goes. I mean, I think
- 1:09:38Speaker 1: it's I think we're still at the phase where it's
- 1:09:39Speaker 1: going to get worse before it gets better. We'll see.
- 1:09:43Speaker 2: Let's just hope we don't get war.
- 1:09:44Speaker 1: No, we don't want we never want war.
- 1:09:46Speaker 2: And I don't know about you, but there was really
- 1:09:47Speaker 2: only one candidate that was out there. I'm talking about
- 1:09:50Speaker 2: not getting into a war, and that was Trump.
- 1:09:54Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you know, like I know, he doesn't want to.
- 1:09:57Speaker 2: As much as he had to give the guy some credit,
- 1:09:58Speaker 2: but like you know, like we weren't. Nobody was willing
- 1:10:01Speaker 2: to give any credit in the first first term. And
- 1:10:03Speaker 2: I don't know if there was credit to be given.
- 1:10:05Speaker 2: I found a couple of things, you know, I like
- 1:10:07Speaker 2: what he did with the prison system and you know.
- 1:10:12Speaker 1: What else.
- 1:10:16Speaker 2: But you know what, man, I mean the guy. The
- 1:10:20Speaker 2: guy was spending most of the time, you know, defending
- 1:10:22Speaker 2: himself and whatever. And look, you could have a feeling
- 1:10:25Speaker 2: about that. I don't care anymore. I just care about
- 1:10:27Speaker 2: where we are right now. And right now we all
- 1:10:29Speaker 2: need to get together. We have to win this Ai war,
- 1:10:32Speaker 2: we have to win this trade war. We need to
- 1:10:33Speaker 2: keep our our currency, the world currency, and we're not
- 1:10:37Speaker 2: going to do that at providing amongst each other. So now,
- 1:10:39Speaker 2: think about what's more important.
- 1:10:40Speaker 1: Right Think about what's more important for your kids and
- 1:10:44Speaker 1: your kids care.
- 1:10:45Speaker 2: For money, keeping money in your pocket, and enjoying the
- 1:10:47Speaker 2: things that year you're used to as an American.
- 1:10:49Speaker 1: All right, so let me segue into you know, winners
- 1:10:52Speaker 1: and losers. You know, Trump's the big winner and Biden
- 1:10:56Speaker 1: was the big loser the Democrats this time around. So
- 1:11:00Speaker 1: let's talk about the Jets and the Mets, the Red Sox.
- 1:11:03Speaker 2: And nic Setup.
- 1:11:07Speaker 1: Sure you're right into that one. What do you want
- 1:11:10Speaker 1: to all right? Well, first time, let's say Jets, real quick,
- 1:11:13Speaker 1: Jets minute. Who I don't really go past four when
- 1:11:18Speaker 1: I read the mock drafts because the Pats are picking four.
- 1:11:20Speaker 1: But what's I think it's a lineman, old lineman they're
- 1:11:23Speaker 1: looking at. But what are the Jets doing with the
- 1:11:25Speaker 1: seven seventh pick? I think they have chere.
- 1:11:27Speaker 2: I mean, I don't embarrassed to tell you this.
- 1:11:28Speaker 1: You don't know I shut the Jets off. Come on
- 1:11:31Speaker 1: in September, come on, I I the point of being
- 1:11:37Speaker 1: a Jet fan is did just you gotta live the
- 1:11:39Speaker 1: miserable life of being a.
- 1:11:40Speaker 2: Jet And I lived it.
- 1:11:41Speaker 1: Yeah, lived a long time.
- 1:11:43Speaker 2: I lived it a long time. And actually I think
- 1:11:45Speaker 2: I made it to October. Yeah, or that whole Aaron
- 1:11:49Speaker 2: Rodgers like, well, he's gone build up. It's just it
- 1:11:53Speaker 2: left a scar man. And I just I tuned out
- 1:11:56Speaker 2: and I'm part of this, this group text with Randy
- 1:11:59Speaker 2: and all our Jet friends, and.
- 1:12:01Speaker 1: It's not look every once in a while.
- 1:12:03Speaker 2: To see what they say. Yeah, yeah, I am just
- 1:12:05Speaker 2: like I'm all baseball right now.
- 1:12:06Speaker 1: All right, so you were all right, well then Jets, No, no,
- 1:12:11Speaker 1: So what are they looking for? Well, the most of
- 1:12:14Speaker 1: the mocks that I've gone past for is alignment unless
- 1:12:19Speaker 1: Shador Sanders falls to seven, which you're probably going to
- 1:12:22Speaker 1: fall past the Jets.
- 1:12:23Speaker 2: But I heard something about them trading up to get
- 1:12:27Speaker 2: some are trading down?
- 1:12:30Speaker 1: Yeah, like going backwards, yeah, back fourteen, Yeah, gain some
- 1:12:34Speaker 1: extra picks. Yeah, it's not This is not one of
- 1:12:36Speaker 1: the deepest drafts in like the last few years. Outside
- 1:12:39Speaker 1: of the top three players you know, Travis Hunter, Abdual
- 1:12:43Speaker 1: Carter from Penn State and maybe can't Ward the quarterback.
- 1:12:46Speaker 1: Other than that, it's kind of a miss mash of ship.
- 1:12:49Speaker 1: They say, there's some solid running back wide receivers in
- 1:12:51Speaker 1: the middle rounds that could you know, make an impact,
- 1:12:53Speaker 1: but nothing nothing too like to get fired up about.
- 1:12:56Speaker 1: This is not the year you want really a high
- 1:12:57Speaker 1: pick if you're a really bad team.
- 1:13:00Speaker 2: But I'm not ready to forgive them me.
- 1:13:01Speaker 1: No, well, you got justin fields to look forward to
- 1:13:04Speaker 1: and the that's right, that one.
- 1:13:06Speaker 2: I like some of the coaching things, but I feel
- 1:13:08Speaker 2: like if as long as Woodies owning that team. Yeah,
- 1:13:10Speaker 2: it's the same thing I had about the Mets with
- 1:13:12Speaker 2: the will Ponds.
- 1:13:13Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 1:13:13Speaker 2: Well it's just like but I can't. I can't. I can't.
- 1:13:19Speaker 2: I can't. I can't quit him.
- 1:13:20Speaker 1: All right, So, how excited were you when they signed Sodo?
- 1:13:28Speaker 2: Excited? Expected? Yeah, I don't know why. I just like
- 1:13:33Speaker 2: I would have been more reactive if they didn't get them.
- 1:13:38Speaker 1: So one of my best friends, you know, we're we
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: just text. I probably have like seven miss text right
- 1:13:43Speaker 1: on my phone right now about Red Sox. And there
- 1:13:48Speaker 1: was a report by some guy on Twitter that said
- 1:13:50Speaker 1: it's a done deal, the Red Sox are signing Sodo.
- 1:13:53Speaker 1: It was over was it Thanksgiving weekend? I think, and uh,
- 1:13:57Speaker 1: somewhere around there, and it should be announced by and
- 1:14:00Speaker 1: this dude just stuck to his guns, and we're like
- 1:14:03Speaker 1: fuck it. Now. My buddy's like, you know, I don't
- 1:14:05Speaker 1: want him, He's too expensive. We got other needs, you
- 1:14:08Speaker 1: know which. He's right, But I'm the guy that I
- 1:14:10Speaker 1: don't give a fuck what you pay these guys, just
- 1:14:11Speaker 1: get him on the fucking team, and we haven't spent
- 1:14:13Speaker 1: money in years. Obviously he didn't go, and this guy
- 1:14:17Speaker 1: just got roasted online. I didn't know who he was,
- 1:14:20Speaker 1: but like like even like the beat reporters were like
- 1:14:23Speaker 1: like re quoting him on Twitter. Really yeah, And then
- 1:14:27Speaker 1: now now I focused on we're not yet him. Just
- 1:14:29Speaker 1: don't go to the Yankees.
- 1:14:31Speaker 2: I think they were saying that about what Yeah, yeah, yeah,
- 1:14:37Speaker 2: how's he doing?
- 1:14:38Speaker 1: By the way, all right, they're off to a weird start.
- 1:14:41Speaker 1: You know. The weather's been I mean not. It's funny,
- 1:14:43Speaker 1: like Cora made a great quote last night.
- 1:14:46Speaker 2: Good right, yeah you have another one?
- 1:14:48Speaker 1: I do, Yeah, I get I'll get you one second.
- 1:14:49Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: The Cora made a great quote because they they just
- 1:14:54Speaker 1: got swelled. They just lost three in a row to Toronto.
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: The weather's been crap whatever, and Core goes, yeah, it's
- 1:15:00Speaker 1: funny how everyone complains about the weather in April but
- 1:15:03Speaker 1: they never complain about the weather in October.
- 1:15:06Speaker 2: But quick factly, yeah, the average temperature in October is
- 1:15:10Speaker 2: like fifty three, and.
- 1:15:12Speaker 1: Right now it's like forty forty. I know, it's you
- 1:15:15Speaker 1: know what it is. It's like I always say this,
- 1:15:18Speaker 1: it's it's fucking we don't take our sweatshirts off in
- 1:15:22Speaker 1: you know, like in the spring until it's like fucking eighty.
- 1:15:25Speaker 1: It seems like yeah, but like in the fall, it's like,
- 1:15:29Speaker 1: oh yeah, it's like a nice crisp out. It's beautiful
- 1:15:31Speaker 1: because we've been in the summer all year and it's like, oh,
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: this is nice. It is right, it's totality. It's same
- 1:15:37Speaker 1: fucking temperature, right, you know, for the most part. Yeah,
- 1:15:40Speaker 1: so all right, I'll grab your water, but talk about
- 1:15:42Speaker 1: your soda. The day the Soto signed, yeah, I loved it.
- 1:15:46Speaker 2: Man I And then I have to wait for you
- 1:15:51Speaker 2: to come back for this one. So so, so those
- 1:15:54Speaker 2: who know me know that my my wife is a
- 1:15:58Speaker 2: huge Yankees fan, and I went all in on my
- 1:16:04Speaker 2: first born with my teams, and he's not into sports.
- 1:16:08Speaker 2: So she got the second born, who is you know,
- 1:16:11Speaker 2: he's his dreams of becoming a major League baseball player,
- 1:16:14Speaker 2: let's just put it that way. So I lost out
- 1:16:17Speaker 2: on this miserably and it affects me deeply and I remind.
- 1:16:23Speaker 1: Her every day. Oh man.
- 1:16:26Speaker 2: So anyways, so it was more about them when they're
- 1:16:29Speaker 2: sour grapes at home, you know. And my now, my
- 1:16:32Speaker 2: thirteen year old, he makes comments every chance he gets,
- 1:16:35Speaker 2: and I try to stay away. He's like, oh, how
- 1:16:38Speaker 2: was that strikeout the other day? Oh? Good thing we
- 1:16:41Speaker 2: paid all that money for so we get a lot
- 1:16:44Speaker 2: of that stuff. But I yeah, I was psyched, believe
- 1:16:47Speaker 2: it or not. Man. I you know, it's like I
- 1:16:48Speaker 2: always heard about Soto being this, you know, incredible player,
- 1:16:51Speaker 2: but I don't. I don't watch him much.
- 1:16:53Speaker 1: You know.
- 1:16:53Speaker 2: I saw him when he played Washington and Padres and yeah,
- 1:16:58Speaker 2: you know, I just but he's a double hitter.
- 1:17:00Speaker 1: Oh he's fucking incredible.
- 1:17:02Speaker 2: It's high.
- 1:17:03Speaker 1: Could you fathom the money there, just handing out these guys.
- 1:17:07Speaker 2: It's just like, but that's another thing that's just so stupid,
- 1:17:11Speaker 2: because it's it's it's pretend, right, It's all pretend money. Yeah,
- 1:17:14Speaker 2: it's just all this circulating trillions of dollars all over
- 1:17:17Speaker 2: the place, man, and just push it all all around, right,
- 1:17:19Speaker 2: just gets pushed around. You know. It's like, and we're
- 1:17:22Speaker 2: gonna pay. We're gonna pay those prices regardless. Yeah, so
- 1:17:25Speaker 2: it's not our money, no, but I mean it's and
- 1:17:29Speaker 2: what's the fans doing now right like twenty years ago,
- 1:17:33Speaker 2: you were probably going to ten fifteen games. Yeah, right
- 1:17:36Speaker 2: now with the prices, Oh, I go down once twice.
- 1:17:39Speaker 1: I mean actually pay like I mean, I you know,
- 1:17:42Speaker 1: being in the business, I'm man, I get a little lucky.
- 1:17:44Speaker 1: I'll get tickets from a distributor or something like that,
- 1:17:47Speaker 1: so I get to like, you know, I was supposed
- 1:17:49Speaker 1: to go Saturday, but I was rained out, and I
- 1:17:52Speaker 1: have tickets for September against the Yankees. I think I.
- 1:17:55Speaker 2: Haven't paid for baseball tickets ten years. Yeah, I might
- 1:17:58Speaker 2: actually now, yeah, and not actually buy my buy buy
- 1:18:02Speaker 2: some tickets. Sits. Yeah, because they put something, they put
- 1:18:04Speaker 2: a good product on the field.
- 1:18:05Speaker 1: Yeah, well I mean that always changes. Yeah, all right,
- 1:18:11Speaker 1: so Fenway City Field. Now. My ex girlfriend, Cara, who
- 1:18:18Speaker 1: used to work at seven seas diehard Mets fan. Obviously,
- 1:18:21Speaker 1: I'm diehard Red Sox, which is an easy kind of
- 1:18:24Speaker 1: relationship because you know, it's not Yankees Red Sox. It's
- 1:18:27Speaker 1: like two different leads.
- 1:18:27Speaker 2: You know, I didn't know you were from Massachusetts.
- 1:18:29Speaker 1: Yeah, he was born there.
- 1:18:30Speaker 2: Yeah, when did you?
- 1:18:31Speaker 1: I moved to Madison, Connecticut when I was in eighth grade.
- 1:18:36Speaker 1: Oh okay, so I went to hand High.
- 1:18:38Speaker 2: So yeah, you pretty much cut your teeth.
- 1:18:39Speaker 1: Yeah yeah. And then I went to University New Haven
- 1:18:42Speaker 1: and I went spent one year in Florida, but basically
- 1:18:45Speaker 1: been in the West Haven Milford area. You know since
- 1:18:47Speaker 1: I started stormage in two thousand, so twenty five years
- 1:18:49Speaker 1: of Stonebridge come long time? Does it all go crazy?
- 1:18:54Speaker 2: Right? Do you think about the people that are still
- 1:18:56Speaker 2: doing right?
- 1:18:57Speaker 1: You it's fucking crazy. I mean, but's changing for the world.
- 1:19:03Speaker 2: Man, it's a young man's game.
- 1:19:07Speaker 1: So, uh, I don't know where was I going with this?
- 1:19:09Speaker 3: It was, uh, city Field, So I I love city
- 1:19:14Speaker 3: Field because we used to I dated her pre City Field,
- 1:19:17Speaker 3: so we'd obviously go to Shay and then we saw
- 1:19:19Speaker 3: the construction every you know, in the in the off season,
- 1:19:22Speaker 3: in the early games when it was Shade was still
- 1:19:24Speaker 3: there and then they transferred over.
- 1:19:26Speaker 1: And I mean, I don't love the area, but I
- 1:19:30Speaker 1: love the field just has that like minor league complex slash,
- 1:19:35Speaker 1: just like the amenities are good. It's it's yeah, it's
- 1:19:39Speaker 1: really nice. And it just dawned on me Saturday of
- 1:19:44Speaker 1: how much I really don't like Fenway. Uh, it's very
- 1:19:47Speaker 1: pleasing to the eyes. When you're there. Uh, you know,
- 1:19:50Speaker 1: it's iconic, the Green Monster, all that stuff, but the
- 1:19:56Speaker 1: underbelly reminds me of the old Yankee Stadium. It's just
- 1:19:59Speaker 1: fucking disgusted thing. And they just don't put any money
- 1:20:03Speaker 1: into it. They probably never will because their ownership.
- 1:20:06Speaker 2: Sucks and they don't have to, right, but they don't
- 1:20:08Speaker 2: have to.
- 1:20:09Speaker 1: They they got a good product. They're gonna sell out,
- 1:20:12Speaker 1: and you know, so we sat in this rain delay
- 1:20:15Speaker 1: and we like, like, everyone's got a phone, everyone sees
- 1:20:19Speaker 1: the fucking radar. I knew they weren't playing, but I
- 1:20:22Speaker 1: knew I couldn't go the next day, so my friend
- 1:20:24Speaker 1: my couple met us out there. I had the four
- 1:20:26Speaker 1: free tickets, so I went and we went in. We're
- 1:20:30Speaker 1: like screw it. Had a couple of beers and it's cold.
- 1:20:33Speaker 1: It's fucking, you know, forty two degrees in raining and
- 1:20:37Speaker 1: I have Nessen app on my phone, so I'm kind
- 1:20:39Speaker 1: of watching it. Will Middlebrooks is the studio guy former.
- 1:20:44Speaker 1: He's an alumni of the show, by the way, and
- 1:20:48Speaker 1: he's just saying, oh, well, they really need to get
- 1:20:49Speaker 1: this game because they're playing Saint Louis and Saint Louis
- 1:20:51Speaker 1: doesn't come back because it's a you know, interleague game,
- 1:20:53Speaker 1: blah blah blah. I'm like, why don't there's play a
- 1:20:56Speaker 1: doublehead of tomorrow. I don't really care. I just want
- 1:20:57Speaker 1: to stand here. So we left at like six, called
- 1:21:00Speaker 1: the game at like six forty and that was a
- 1:21:01Speaker 1: four h five first pitch. So they got everyone to park.
- 1:21:05Speaker 1: I'm sure they do this a city field too, Like
- 1:21:07Speaker 1: you just it's just you can, like, with our advancements
- 1:21:11Speaker 1: and the technology of weather, you should be able to
- 1:21:13Speaker 1: cancel this game at seven in the morning before anyone
- 1:21:15Speaker 1: starts traveling, right, like I having the RD be up there,
- 1:21:18Speaker 1: but like it's just like it's just so annoying.
- 1:21:22Speaker 2: We built a nuclear bomb, we figured out how to
- 1:21:26Speaker 2: make artificials and tin watch, but we can't get the
- 1:21:29Speaker 2: fucking weather.
- 1:21:30Speaker 1: Right, no, and we can't fuck it. I mean, we're
- 1:21:33Speaker 1: all sitting there like it's literally gonna rain till tomorrow
- 1:21:35Speaker 1: morning at ten am. And what the amazing thing is
- 1:21:38Speaker 1: it stopped at ten am, right when I was letting
- 1:21:40Speaker 1: those three and rachel maadows out and being nice little
- 1:21:43Speaker 1: that's when it stopped raining. It was ten in the morning.
- 1:21:45Speaker 2: We were you are really trying to turn my liberal
- 1:21:48Speaker 2: friends against me?
- 1:21:51Speaker 1: Oh, come on, your liberal friends watch her, Rachel Rachel Maddow,
- 1:21:56Speaker 1: I would think, so, yeah, I guess I don't know.
- 1:21:59Speaker 1: She's just like there's there's there's there's conservative hosts. I
- 1:22:03Speaker 1: can't stand watching, you know, it's just like that good.
- 1:22:06Speaker 1: I'm good like Tucker. People love Tucker. I'm just he's
- 1:22:08Speaker 1: just so snooty to me, Like, I don't.
- 1:22:11Speaker 2: Know, I heard his podcast is good that I just
- 1:22:14Speaker 2: I can't bring myself from the Fox days.
- 1:22:17Speaker 1: You know, Like Joe Rogan, I don't even know if
- 1:22:19Speaker 1: he's really a conservative. He's no, but he but you know,
- 1:22:23Speaker 1: all leading up to the Trump presidency election, he it's
- 1:22:26Speaker 1: all he had on was conservative guests mostly.
- 1:22:28Speaker 2: Well, well, first off, he's a comedian. So I was
- 1:22:31Speaker 2: like when I when I when I started hearing you
- 1:22:33Speaker 2: on liberal circles, like when they turned on Joe Rogan,
- 1:22:35Speaker 2: I was like, come on, you know it's like and
- 1:22:37Speaker 2: and and and he makes those points. Yeah, you know,
- 1:22:40Speaker 2: it's like I love the dude sits down and has
- 1:22:42Speaker 2: a conversation for three hours, right, Like that's what he does,
- 1:22:46Speaker 2: you know, share some of his opinions for the most part, though,
- 1:22:48Speaker 2: you don't really take much of a stance. I think
- 1:22:50Speaker 2: the Trump thing is my feeling on it. I think
- 1:22:53Speaker 2: those Trump interviews of interviews he got that like that
- 1:22:57Speaker 2: that Trump to the moon and I am sorry, could
- 1:23:00Speaker 2: you imagine Donald Trump sitting across from you right now,
- 1:23:03Speaker 2: right doing a three hour interview at the one most
- 1:23:06Speaker 2: pivotal times in an election. Yeah, I mean you don't

- 1:27:36Speaker 1: just started you know, we were drinking and she just
- 1:27:38Speaker 1: started to get you know, it's probably why we broke up.
- 1:27:40Speaker 1: We didn't break up too much long after this, but
- 1:27:43Speaker 1: she was just like, I can't I can't deal with it.
- 1:27:46Speaker 1: So it's like the seventh inning or whatever. Actually I

- 1:28:18Speaker 1: can't believe I actually told the story that I did.
- 1:28:21Speaker 1: I should just lie a moment, but yeah, that was
- 1:28:29Speaker 1: I was like, you gotta be kidding me. You remember
- 1:28:31Speaker 1: when you were there? Did you go to the any
- 1:28:34Speaker 1: of that all star stuff? Because they had the home
- 1:28:38Speaker 1: run derby the night before.
- 1:28:41Speaker 2: But I did, I was able to.
- 1:28:43Speaker 1: I've seen you guys play Jets games before. I still
- 1:28:48Speaker 1: have a picture of man. I should have texted Emily.
- 1:28:53Speaker 1: Little Emily has a picture of all of us on
- 1:28:55Speaker 1: stage with you guys before a Jet game. You guys
- 1:28:58Speaker 1: were like playing.
- 1:28:58Speaker 2: It was the Jets Patriot game the bud Life Clouds.
- 1:29:02Speaker 1: Yes, that's what it was.
- 1:29:03Speaker 2: And she gonna hear a great story about that. Right.
- 1:29:06Speaker 2: So me and Chris drive up for that gig and
- 1:29:08Speaker 2: we had to be there like insanely early.
- 1:29:12Speaker 1: It was o'clock game, so he got right and.
- 1:29:14Speaker 2: So it's like there's there's no cars in the parking lot.
- 1:29:17Speaker 2: We get there, you know, and it's like, you know,
- 1:29:18Speaker 2: we park up nice and closely, so you know, it's
- 1:29:21Speaker 2: like go through the thing and do the gig and
- 1:29:24Speaker 2: and it was awesome because we got to go in
- 1:29:26Speaker 2: the press boxes and watch the game as well, you know.
- 1:29:29Speaker 2: And so we so it's time to go home and
- 1:29:32Speaker 2: we come out and Chris is like, dude, I don't
- 1:29:37Speaker 2: know where the car is. So because now the parking
- 1:29:39Speaker 2: that's completely filled, and he's just like with the you know,
- 1:29:43Speaker 2: with the room, dude, we I mean, I think it
- 1:29:46Speaker 2: took us like an hour and a half, like we
- 1:29:48Speaker 2: had to waiting for most of the cars to move out,
- 1:29:50Speaker 2: and we finally found our freak. I was like, oh
- 1:29:52Speaker 2: my god, I've never been so tired of my life.
- 1:29:55Speaker 1: And you hate that you just want to get home
- 1:29:57Speaker 1: and he's still got a fucking three hour ride and
- 1:29:59Speaker 1: trap they get there. Yeah.
- 1:30:02Speaker 2: I wasn't going football games, man, I'd rather watch them.
- 1:30:04Speaker 1: Mom, like, well that's the now. It's like, you know,
- 1:30:07Speaker 1: with the size of TVs and the HD and the
- 1:30:09Speaker 1: four K and all this shit's like fun to watch the.
- 1:30:14Speaker 2: Game if you get a bunch of buddies together, like
- 1:30:15Speaker 2: if you have your crew, yeah, you know, like yeah, yeah,
- 1:30:18Speaker 2: I'll go for the tailgame. It's a good time. But
- 1:30:20Speaker 2: you know, it's like I.
- 1:30:21Speaker 1: Went season tickets to the Patriots for a long time,
- 1:30:23Speaker 1: and I would just like it was cool in September
- 1:30:25Speaker 1: and October and maybe the beginning of November, but then
- 1:30:27Speaker 1: it's just like I don't want to stand outside of
- 1:30:30Speaker 1: the cold, right, you know. I had a streak of
- 1:30:33Speaker 1: like twenty one straight victories. It was like there's like
- 1:30:35Speaker 1: Brady from like three to like eight or something, like,
- 1:30:39Speaker 1: I never saw a loss it was like nuts. I
- 1:30:42Speaker 1: mean I didn't go to every game. I sold some tickets,
- 1:30:44Speaker 1: but like every game I went to and that five
- 1:30:46Speaker 1: year span they won, it.
- 1:30:48Speaker 2: Was just fucking your Patriots fan as well.
- 1:30:50Speaker 1: Oh yeah, all Boston, all Boston.
- 1:30:52Speaker 2: All right. So here's my question to you, is Patriots fan,
- 1:30:54Speaker 2: right because I hate you as well.
- 1:30:58Speaker 1: I feel the love right here? Do you care?
- 1:31:00Speaker 2: Like, do you care more about hating the other person's
- 1:31:03Speaker 2: team than liking your own?
- 1:31:06Speaker 1: As far as football, no, baseball? Yes, okay, because I
- 1:31:09Speaker 1: would rather watch the Yankees losing the Red Sox win,
- 1:31:11Speaker 1: all right. So this has always been that way, even
- 1:31:13Speaker 1: after we started winning championships.
- 1:31:16Speaker 2: This is this is my story about my first time
- 1:31:19Speaker 2: going to Foxboro Stadium. So this is when we were
- 1:31:22Speaker 2: sponsored by Cores, you know, so, and that was it
- 1:31:25Speaker 2: was course stadium, right like that's I think that's where
- 1:31:27Speaker 2: they had to give us the tickets. So I go
- 1:31:30Speaker 2: up there for the first time. And this is during
- 1:31:32Speaker 2: that I don't remember the year. You would probably know
- 1:31:34Speaker 2: it better than me, but just when they were the
- 1:31:36Speaker 2: Yankees and the Red Sox we're.
- 1:31:38Speaker 1: Battling three three four somewhere in there.
- 1:31:42Speaker 2: It was the year the big collapse. Remember when he's
- 1:31:45Speaker 2: given now And I'm pretty sure it was.
- 1:31:47Speaker 1: That year because the Patriots won the Super Bowl that
- 1:31:49Speaker 1: year too. Okay, yeah, yeah, I'm pretty sure it was
- 1:31:51Speaker 1: that year.
- 1:31:52Speaker 2: So I'm up there and I'm like, okay, I got
- 1:31:55Speaker 2: my Curtis Martin jersey, you know, but I'm all Red
- 1:31:59Speaker 2: Sox at this point. You know, the Yankee bullshit, right,
- 1:32:02Speaker 2: and I'm not a Yankee hater, but it was like.
- 1:32:04Speaker 1: Yeah, if you're a Mets fan, you're not rooting for him.
- 1:32:06Speaker 2: Yeah, I got a little I got, you know. I
- 1:32:08Speaker 2: was like, I started getting into it. So I'm like,
- 1:32:10Speaker 2: all right, I'm gonna put a Boston Red Sox skullyon
- 1:32:13Speaker 2: and maybe I can get some love, you know, maybe
- 1:32:15Speaker 2: they'll leave me alone. Dude. From the second that I
- 1:32:19Speaker 2: pulled into the freaking they were just me like, and
- 1:32:24Speaker 2: my wife she's laughing her ass off. She's got a Bruskie.
- 1:32:28Speaker 1: Jersey on a second. I don't want to interrupt you,
- 1:32:31Speaker 1: but you're wearing a Jets jersey at Foxborough. It's like
- 1:32:34Speaker 1: me wearing a Trump hat in Boston. You were looking
- 1:32:37Speaker 1: for a response.
- 1:32:40Speaker 2: I don't know, because you weren't going to a competition.
- 1:32:44Speaker 2: Were you. I was going to a competition between two teams.
- 1:32:48Speaker 1: I was going to a Red Sox game.
- 1:32:49Speaker 2: But right now, But it wasn't a rally. It wasn't
- 1:32:51Speaker 2: like a Trump versus racial mount But I'm not going
- 1:32:56Speaker 2: to concede that one. But I tried. It was good.
- 1:33:01Speaker 2: So we get so we get in the stadium. You know,
- 1:33:03Speaker 2: they're harassment, and I'm we get to her seats and
- 1:33:05Speaker 2: then this guy behind me, he starts saying, he was like, oh,
- 1:33:07Speaker 2: where did corn smart and go to college? I'm like
- 1:33:10Speaker 2: pet and then there's you know, so he's just harassment,
- 1:33:13Speaker 2: and you know, and she's having fun. My wife's having
- 1:33:15Speaker 2: fun sitting next to me. I'm like, okay, laugh it up.
- 1:33:19Speaker 2: And look, I don't retaliate like you said, I went
- 1:33:22Speaker 2: into your house. I'm wearing this, but I do have
- 1:33:24Speaker 2: my Red Sox right, So if you had a Trump
- 1:33:27Speaker 2: hat on and Rechiel metal glasses, then maybe you would
- 1:33:30Speaker 2: have a kind of Actually I don't know.
- 1:33:36Speaker 1: So anyway, this is this is.
- 1:33:37Speaker 2: This is the punchline of this story. Is she's giggling
- 1:33:41Speaker 2: over there, having a great time. This guy's making fun
- 1:33:43Speaker 2: of me. You know, because now we're warned because I'm
- 1:33:47Speaker 2: rooting for the Red Sox. And of course she's a
- 1:33:49Speaker 2: diehard Yankee and she she is. She's one of those people.
- 1:33:53Speaker 1: I love it. Come out you are.
- 1:33:58Speaker 2: He gets up, she gets up, she goes, she goes,
- 1:34:01Speaker 2: you want a beer, and I'm like, you can give
- 1:34:02Speaker 2: me a beer. And she gets up and she has
- 1:34:03Speaker 2: brisky jersey on, but underneath it is a Yankee hoodie
- 1:34:08Speaker 2: and you could see the n y these guys go.
- 1:34:14Speaker 1: They loser ships just like that.
- 1:34:22Speaker 2: It was so it's like that was one of those
- 1:34:24Speaker 2: moments like where you see that affle that speeds by
- 1:34:26Speaker 2: get you off on the highway.
- 1:34:27Speaker 1: And then you see the cop. Oh man, you know
- 1:34:32Speaker 1: you just brought up mister Max's name. He like, he
- 1:34:35Speaker 1: refuses to go to Fox Brooks. He's a big Steeler fan.
