- 1:03[SPEAKER_03]: Hello hello.
- 1:04[SPEAKER_03]: It's Sunday and we're both kind of like a I tried to have like a nice energetic welcome, but I think that was really good.
- 1:12[SPEAKER_01]: That was really that was super convincing and I am sold.
- 1:18[SPEAKER_03]: But it's Sunday morning, and we're both in our night gowns, podcasting.
- 1:23[SPEAKER_03]: So that's right.
- 1:24[SPEAKER_03]: Um, what are you wearing?
- 1:26[SPEAKER_03]: No, I'm just kidding.
- 1:28[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, yes.
- 1:29[SPEAKER_01]: I was about, I was just about to tell you, it's my favorite night gown.
- 1:31[SPEAKER_01]: It's like a summer night gown.
- 1:33[SPEAKER_01]: It's white, and it almost has like a little pin of four swings.
- 1:37[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's really cute whenever I put it on, which is usually right after work.
- 1:42[SPEAKER_01]: I wash my face and then I throw on a night gown.
- 1:45[SPEAKER_01]: But whenever I have this night gown on, I like to go down the stairs and do like a little.
- 1:49[SPEAKER_01]: I take, I hold the sides of the night gown and I do like a little back and forth for my family, like a little.
- 1:55[SPEAKER_01]: Do you see me, everybody?
- 1:57[SPEAKER_01]: Look how cute I am.
- 2:01[SPEAKER_03]: That's so awesome.
- 2:03[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, mine's just a cotton.
- 2:06[SPEAKER_03]: cotton thing.
- 2:07[SPEAKER_03]: It's just very simple.
- 2:08[SPEAKER_03]: And I don't really like the way I look right now.
- 2:12[SPEAKER_03]: So I'm trying not to be so negative about myself, but it's very difficult.
- 2:17[SPEAKER_03]: So you know, just because I I can't seem to way what I want to wait.
- 2:24[SPEAKER_03]: And I will say this.
- 2:26[SPEAKER_03]: I have not been that great at
- 2:30[SPEAKER_03]: exercising.
- 2:31[SPEAKER_03]: I don't need a lot.
- 2:32[SPEAKER_03]: It's not like I'm stuffing my face, but I mean, I need enough, but I don't like pick out.
- 2:37[SPEAKER_03]: And I really try to do the whole fucking protein thing and, you know, the protein and the local carbon and all of that.
- 2:43[SPEAKER_03]: And it's just so difficult.
- 2:45[SPEAKER_03]: And I don't have a lot of motivation right now to physically to do anything.
- 2:51[SPEAKER_03]: It's been really different in a whole life.
- 2:53[SPEAKER_03]: My whole adult life, I was so obsessed.
- 2:56[SPEAKER_03]: You know, I wouldn't even get a job that I had to check in every morning because I wanted to work out from home first and I'm extremely rigid about needing a certain amount of sleep.
- 3:04[SPEAKER_03]: And so I'm not the person who gets up at five o'clock in the morning to work out.
- 3:09[SPEAKER_03]: It's like never going to find a job.
- 3:10[SPEAKER_03]: And so.
- 3:12[SPEAKER_03]: I know, like, I knew I could wake up at seven, but I, you know, five, no.
- 3:17[SPEAKER_03]: So I just don't know, like, I got older, I work from home, and I don't know, I just have, and then I feel so bad because Bob is like the most motivated person I've ever met.
- 3:30[SPEAKER_03]: He's so disciplined, and...
- 3:34[SPEAKER_03]: I used to be really disciplined when it came to working out, and I'm just not anymore.
- 3:37[SPEAKER_03]: So I think if I put more effort into it, yes, I could lose weight, but I just have the hardest fucking time.
- 3:45[SPEAKER_03]: And then on top of it, I was having a really difficult time physically.
- 3:49[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm not going to get into too much of this, but ultimately what was happening?
- 3:54[SPEAKER_03]: I believe I was low testosteroneing out.
- 3:57[SPEAKER_03]: I do take testosterone and I wasn't using enough and I opted and so I actually opted to what my doctor had prescribed for me.
- 4:06[SPEAKER_03]: It's a long story, it's why I don't want to get into it.
- 4:08[SPEAKER_03]: But when I did that, I did get some more energy and I felt better.
- 4:12[SPEAKER_03]: But still, I don't know, I don't have this like, I gotta do it.
- 4:20[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, yeah, you know what?
- 4:22[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I've always been like, I love to exercise.
- 4:28[SPEAKER_01]: I'd like like I like being outside.
- 4:30[SPEAKER_01]: I used to run for years and years and years, like distance running and I had a running partner and we've since graduated to weekline stairs in the neighborhood and there I would like to.
- 4:40[SPEAKER_01]: It's really nice and we've been doing it for years and California they have that available to you where it's just fucking hillside with stairs That's exactly right and we have one so like my house is like the last house on the street before the street starts going up And so and it goes up and up and up and so we'll go like
- 5:02[SPEAKER_01]: lights of outdoor stairs and we do it.
- 5:05[SPEAKER_01]: We do we used to do six, but now we do five because we have we both work and so yeah like and she's not a morning person so we'll do it like a it'll be on a lunch hour to be at the end of the work day so we got to be more it's dark and blah blah blah blah but I tell you what that and then we like bitch the whole time so it's almost there up here right
- 5:28[SPEAKER_01]: Sometimes it's so funny.
- 5:29[SPEAKER_01]: We did one the other day and there was no complaining and I always I Were in I wear an apple watch, so she'll always say to me, what are we on?
- 5:37[SPEAKER_01]: Are we on three we on four and I'm like, we're on Hey, and she'll be like, oh my god, maybe you know, maybe we should have a positive attitude when we do this
- 5:49[SPEAKER_01]: But actually it's so fun and and but I do get up.
- 5:53[SPEAKER_01]: I get up at 530 Monday Wednesday and Friday and I go to the gym.
- 5:57[SPEAKER_01]: I will never do that.
- 5:58[SPEAKER_01]: It has changed my entire life.
- 6:16[SPEAKER_01]: But I'm just saying, I, you know, like the titties sag a little bit now, but the ass has fallen a little, but there is muscle underneath it.
- 6:25[SPEAKER_01]: And so I have this little trick that I do where I'll stand.
- 6:28[SPEAKER_01]: It's funny.
- 6:28[SPEAKER_01]: I do it for the ladies at the gym because some of them are closed to my age.
- 6:32[SPEAKER_01]: And I'll be like, check this out.
- 6:33[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you know, they say that your ass falls when you're in your late 50s, 60s.
- 6:38[SPEAKER_01]: But look at this and then I squeeze my butt muscles and they're like, it's like a whole transformative thing.
- 6:45[SPEAKER_01]: But I don't even, like, that to me, that's my, like medicine, you know what I'm saying?
- 6:51[SPEAKER_01]: And I have gotten into, I just pop out a bed, even if I have a shitty night sleep, because I know if I get there and I walk in, plus all these people have like become my friends.
- 7:02[SPEAKER_01]: They come to all of my planned parenthood events.
- 7:05[SPEAKER_01]: Of course they do.
- 7:07[SPEAKER_01]: But they're the best, like, these are my, these are my people, I love them.
- 7:11[SPEAKER_01]: We have a text thread.
- 7:12[SPEAKER_01]: We're buddies.
- 7:13[SPEAKER_01]: And I, on Fridays now, we walk out of the gym, there are four of us that started because I get a coffee every single day.
- 7:21[SPEAKER_01]: That's my routine.
- 7:22[SPEAKER_01]: I love routines.
- 7:24[SPEAKER_01]: And so I'm like, hey, you guys want to go grab a coffee.
- 7:28[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, now Fridays, we all go and we get a coffee and we sit for like 10, 15 minutes together.
- 7:34[SPEAKER_01]: And the woman that owns the gym, because it's a teeny little gym.
- 7:38[SPEAKER_01]: And she just like she's like the proud mama when she walks, watches us walk across the parking lot to go get a latte.
- 7:44[SPEAKER_01]: Oh
- 7:46[SPEAKER_01]: I, you know, you kind of got, I know you, I know how rigid you've been in the past, sometimes you fall out of that and you don't feel like it's been a lot, I mean, it's menopause is kind of fucked me up.
- 7:55[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, you know, I mean, like, I think there's, there's also another aspect to this, which is, and I hate saying this, I really do, but I don't really enjoy living in Maryland and I miss California and I know, I mean, I wouldn't go to the gym if I lived in California.
- 8:10[SPEAKER_03]: I did go to the gym at one point in my life.
- 8:13[SPEAKER_03]: And I really did it for like six months.
- 8:15[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I went religiously and I just did not like it.
- 8:18[SPEAKER_03]: I tried and I tried and I tried.
- 8:20[SPEAKER_03]: I'm the kind of person that's much better working out at home.
- 8:23[SPEAKER_03]: And I always found motivation to do it until I stopped doing it.
- 8:28[SPEAKER_03]: And then it's been intermittent.
- 8:30[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, in 2023, I lost weight because I was in a wedding.
- 8:33[SPEAKER_03]: So I lost like 20 pounds.
- 8:35[SPEAKER_03]: I probably gained about 10 of it back.
- 8:37[SPEAKER_03]: And that was all after the election, by the way.
- 8:40[SPEAKER_03]: But, and it wasn't because I picked out.
- 8:42[SPEAKER_03]: It was because I stopped working out.
- 8:43[SPEAKER_03]: That's really what it was.
- 8:46[SPEAKER_03]: And so, you know, on top of it, you know, I have arthritis.
- 8:50[SPEAKER_03]: I have aches and pains when I was low testosterone.
- 8:54[SPEAKER_03]: I was crying to Bob on the sofa going, I feel like I'm dying.
- 8:58[SPEAKER_03]: And I wasn't kidding.
- 8:59[SPEAKER_03]: I said, I don't feel like I have a disease, but I feel like I'm dying.
- 9:02[SPEAKER_03]: I had no energy.
- 9:04[SPEAKER_03]: I was extremely depressed.
- 9:06[SPEAKER_03]: I was having issues with my vision in that I was having like very hard core light sets at the beginning.
- 9:14[SPEAKER_03]: I couldn't even look at the computer.
- 9:16[SPEAKER_03]: And I was freaking out about that.
- 9:18[SPEAKER_03]: And at the same time, I was having that old factory hallucinations that are like smelling smoke.
- 9:26[SPEAKER_03]: And so the long in short of this is I added more testosterone.
- 9:31[SPEAKER_03]: And then I added,
- 9:33[SPEAKER_03]: a phytoestrogen that I just got online, and I mean literally the smallest amount.
- 9:38[SPEAKER_03]: And I discovered using that that because I thought I realized that the and I saw NIH did a study that when you are not everyone goes through this.
- 9:50[SPEAKER_03]: But when women lose estrogen,
- 9:53[SPEAKER_03]: They can have this olfactory situation.
- 9:56[SPEAKER_03]: Same thing like with night sweats or hot flashes or whatever.
- 9:59[SPEAKER_03]: It's like something's off, right?
- 10:01[SPEAKER_03]: And so your olfactory senses are off.
- 10:05[SPEAKER_03]: And I get this smell of smoke.
- 10:06[SPEAKER_03]: But, and so when I put the phytoestrogen on, that was the only thing that it did, like it got rid of the smoke smell.
- 10:15[SPEAKER_03]: But what it did, it replaced, like all of a sudden I started feeling sad.
- 10:21[SPEAKER_03]: and I started craving sugar, fat, and carbs, which is exactly what I was going through when I was younger.
- 10:27[SPEAKER_03]: So it was like, okay, I know all this shit.
- 10:30[SPEAKER_03]: I know all of the, because I believe I was estrogen dominant when I was younger and no one ever told that to me.
- 10:35[SPEAKER_03]: I don't even know if they knew that term back then, but I don't do so well with added estrogen.
- 10:39[SPEAKER_03]: But I will say that, you know, I added the estrogen and the smell went away.
- 10:44[SPEAKER_03]: Now, I stopped using it and I'm only going to use it if that smell comes up.
- 10:48[SPEAKER_03]: But I felt like I was dying.
- 10:51[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm not kidding.
- 10:52[SPEAKER_03]: I was in such fucking pain.
- 10:54[SPEAKER_03]: Everything hurt.
- 10:55[SPEAKER_03]: My back hurt, my neck hurt, my arms hurt.
- 10:58[SPEAKER_03]: I felt like I was just...
- 11:00[SPEAKER_03]: filled with arts, right?
- 11:01[SPEAKER_03]: I was awful.
- 11:02[SPEAKER_03]: And, you know, so Bob's like, well, maybe you just need more testosterone.
- 11:06[SPEAKER_03]: And so, this is what I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna bore everybody with the fucking details of what I've been doing with my testosterone.
- 11:12[SPEAKER_03]: But I decided last year I was gonna use more and then use less and I was just fucking around and playing around with that and I shouldn't and then I got to a point where I wasn't using very much at all and I was completely depleted and clearly when I used more, I improved a lot.
- 11:28[SPEAKER_03]: Um, but yeah, there is just this, there's just, it's also, it's like, because when you work from home, um, for me, I am not one of these people that's been, I was always motivated to work out when I was younger, but now that it's like, I don't know, there's just like this draw to just keep sitting, which is so fucking bad for you.
- 11:46[SPEAKER_01]: So I do have sitting, sitting, yes, sitting is bad, because it's really bad for your freaking, so that's my own.
- 11:53[SPEAKER_01]: So that's my own.
- 11:53[SPEAKER_01]: It's, yes.
- 11:55[SPEAKER_03]: I have that problem but I have to you know I'm pushing myself push myself a little bit like okay I have to move around I have to you know, so I will I've been pretty good about Moving around throughout the day, but like it's not enough to lose weight, so anyway That's the really fucking long explanation of why I'm not happy with the way I look, but it's kind of all on me so I'm not I'm not pinning.
- 12:20[SPEAKER_03]: I'm just like
- 12:23[SPEAKER_03]: I wish I had the motivation, but it's just really difficult.
- 12:27[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know and you know what today I'm gonna fucking work out after we do this podcast Because I mean the other thing okay, I don't I don't you know we're gonna.
- 12:36[SPEAKER_03]: We have no notes today We're just going off and whatever we're gonna talk about because you're Stephanie no note and This kind of start calling you from now and Stephanie no note, but
- 12:48[SPEAKER_03]: I just like, I don't know.

- 13:08[SPEAKER_03]: It gets to the point where I'm like infuriated, but at the same time I'm kind of paralyzed, mentally paralyzed.
- 13:15[SPEAKER_03]: Like, what the fuck am I gonna say about this that everybody else is thinking and saying, the same thing I'm thinking?
- 13:21[SPEAKER_03]: You know, it's like, how many ways can I say, I hate this guy, this guy's a fucking idiot, this guy is lying, this guy is full of shit.
- 13:26[SPEAKER_01]: Well, he's gonna be responsible for death.
- 13:29[SPEAKER_03]: Uh-huh, yeah, he is, and he's mentally ill.
- 13:32[SPEAKER_01]: he comes on the mentally ill and he's raided out like yes, you know, he's like got that road rage, you know what I mean, didn't you get that feeling as well?
- 13:43[SPEAKER_03]: Yes.
- 13:44[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, he's just he is something that's wrong with that man.
- 13:47[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, whether it's basically rain, rain, rain, warm or the roads, I don't know.
- 13:53[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I don't, I just don't, you know, I'm
- 13:59[SPEAKER_01]: But you look, if that person was in your life, like I was imagining, what if he was like, one of the dads at that one of my kids' schools?
- 14:07[SPEAKER_01]: That's what I said.
- 14:08[SPEAKER_01]: You know, like, we'd be like, you know, that dude ain't invited.

- 14:54[SPEAKER_01]: And,
- 14:56[SPEAKER_01]: the wedding was it was in Oakland and it was it was up at the top of the hill where I do the stairs so like the houses kind of change up there like it's it's another literally another echelon yeah it's is beautiful home and I happened to know the couple that owns it and it was their sister that was getting married.
- 15:14[SPEAKER_01]: And so she had come and seen us play in the bar before and she was like, you know, playing my wedding.
- 15:19[SPEAKER_01]: So we go, we get there.
- 15:21[SPEAKER_01]: These people were the most fun.

- 15:41[SPEAKER_01]: And so my girlfriend was in the sorry and her sister, who's another friend of mine, like it was just spectacular.
- 15:46[SPEAKER_01]: I'm actually getting the chills as I tell you.
- 15:48[SPEAKER_01]: And they wanted the most rock and set of music.
- 15:52[SPEAKER_01]: We gave them access to our spreadsheet with our entire catalog of every song we've ever played.
- 15:57[SPEAKER_01]: They picked the best shit.
- 16:00[SPEAKER_01]: And it was like, it was so much fun.
- 16:02[SPEAKER_01]: So afterwards, you know, everybody was rocking and haven't the time of their lives.
- 16:06[SPEAKER_01]: I had a really long night cord.
- 16:07[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm like going out into the audience and people are singing.
- 16:10[SPEAKER_01]: It was just total gas.
- 16:12[SPEAKER_01]: Well, of course, these are our people.
- 16:14[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know about the groom's side of the family, but yes, they were.
- 16:18[SPEAKER_01]: And so people were coming up to us at the end.
- 16:21[SPEAKER_01]: And my girlfriend's father, who's probably and is, I'm gonna guess, like, mid to late 70s.
- 16:30[SPEAKER_01]: You know, crop, because of course they wanted us to play American Idiot, they wanted us to play, you know, and they were like, hello.
- 16:37[SPEAKER_01]: So the, the dad was saying, are you in the, because I was talking to his daughter and her husband and I said, no, and my friend goes, she's Mexican though, and he goes, oh, he ate you too.
- 16:48[SPEAKER_01]: We're all free.
- 16:56[SPEAKER_01]: And he's like, he goes literally goes,

- 17:21[SPEAKER_01]: They as long as they get theirs and he goes and get more I go, yeah, I usually throw that into, but I don't know the dad so well, so I was kind of trying to keep it on the level of hate But as long as they get theirs and get more of theirs, they don't give off.
- 17:35[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah, no who they have to step on or eliminate to keep it.
- 17:42[SPEAKER_01]: And that's where we are.
- 17:44[SPEAKER_01]: And that goes back to all of these senators on the Republican side who vote to confirm this.
- 17:54[SPEAKER_01]: who they don't care, they've all got their vaccines.
- 17:56[SPEAKER_00]: And like Bernie pointed out last week, I want to point out that a representative or on this title, every senator on the Republican side has been vaccinated, absolutely most of the families.
- 18:07[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
- 18:08[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm like, yeah, because through my point, as long as they get theirs and continue to get more,
- 18:17[SPEAKER_01]: They don't care, you know, yeah, let's I've seen memes like jump in kids.
- 18:22[SPEAKER_01]: It's Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

- 18:36[SPEAKER_01]: We are a joke.
- 18:38[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, and this
- 18:46[SPEAKER_01]: They see us as weak and China's like this is our opportunity.
- 18:50[SPEAKER_01]: We did it.
- 18:51[SPEAKER_01]: It worked.
- 18:52[SPEAKER_01]: This asshole is in power and he's ruining America and we're going to take him down.
- 18:58[SPEAKER_01]: But of course he and his disgusting family just made $5 billion in Bitcoin or whatever they're creating.
- 19:07[SPEAKER_01]: And people in my community are going to the food bank.
- 19:12[SPEAKER_01]: to feed their kids when they weren't a year and a half ago.
- 19:15[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, it's not just real.
- 19:19[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it's not taking long either.
- 19:21[SPEAKER_03]: Well, you know, initially what I was saying was that I feel slightly paralyzed in these times because I feel like, you know, I'm always, I always have so much to say, I've got all these opinions and whatever I always say, I'm like, not an expert on anything.
- 19:39[SPEAKER_03]: I didn't go to college for any of this.
- 19:41[SPEAKER_03]: I, maybe I'm an expert or feminism because I'm a mother, but I'm not, I'm a mother.
- 19:45[SPEAKER_03]: I'm a woman.
- 19:46[SPEAKER_03]: Um, I'm not a mother, you're a mother.
- 19:48[SPEAKER_03]: You're a mother.
- 19:50[SPEAKER_03]: But I mean, it's, but I'm not an expert expert.
- 19:53[SPEAKER_03]: Like I'm not, you know, I don't have a degree, whatever.
- 19:56[SPEAKER_03]: And so, and I don't say that in a way that talks down about, you know, I'm not trying to say negative things about myself.
- 20:02[SPEAKER_03]: I just recognize who I am.
- 20:04[SPEAKER_03]: And this role that I have, I've been battling this role ever since.
- 20:08[SPEAKER_03]: Well, I've kind of been battling this role even before the election, but I kept trying.
- 20:12[SPEAKER_03]: I kept trying to use my platform.
- 20:14[SPEAKER_03]: you know, to spread truth or whatever.
- 20:18[SPEAKER_03]: And now I feel, you know, and I was battling more at the beginning and kind of back in my groove a little bit at least with this show.
- 20:25[SPEAKER_03]: But still, I see things like that, and it feels overwhelming, and it feels like, you know, everyone else is throwing their opinions out.
- 20:33[SPEAKER_03]: And frankly, I hate saying this because I don't, I don't want to...
- 20:37[SPEAKER_03]: How can I say this?
- 20:38[SPEAKER_03]: I don't want to talk negatively about the subject or anybody involved, but, you know, like, let's just say, back when I started blogging.
- 20:47[SPEAKER_03]: It was 2010, 2011.
- 20:50[SPEAKER_03]: And I was so surprised.
- 20:53[SPEAKER_03]: But I was asked to write for God.
- 20:56[SPEAKER_03]: It was, I can't remember the name of it.
- 20:58[SPEAKER_03]: It was a blog, it was a big blog at the time.
- 21:02[SPEAKER_03]: And the reason they had asked me was because on my own blog, I had written an open letter to Rush Limbaugh and being living in it.
- 21:09[SPEAKER_01]: Wasn't it having to post?
- 21:11[SPEAKER_03]: No, it was before Huffington.
- 21:12[SPEAKER_03]: It was, it was okay.
- 21:13[SPEAKER_03]: I just can't remember the name of it.
- 21:15[SPEAKER_03]: It started with an A, and I just don't know the name.
- 21:18[SPEAKER_03]: But anyway, at the time, it was pretty popular.
- 21:21[SPEAKER_03]: And the guy who ran it had many Facebook pages where he could post these blogs, and so there was, it was like the Wild West, there was no algorithm.
- 21:31[SPEAKER_03]: thing.
- 21:32[SPEAKER_03]: So it was just like whatever people, you know, if it would explode organically and eventually Facebook would, you know, get in the way and suppress political stuff.
- 21:41[SPEAKER_03]: But addicting infel, that's what it was called.
- 21:44[SPEAKER_03]: So, you know, they asked me to write for addicting infel and I did, and I was only there for a short time, and then I went to Liberals United.
- 21:49[SPEAKER_03]: But, you know, I jumped right in because it was,
- 21:53[SPEAKER_03]: That was kind of when, you know, the blogosphere was really about sarcasm, which, hello, I mean, I was born with sarcasm, and so we would benefit.
- 22:04[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and humor and sarcasm and, you know, expressing your opinion, it's like, okay, right up my alley.
- 22:12[SPEAKER_03]: and so I did that and I loved it and I had a lot of fun and I had to compete because there are other writers, you know, you had to like, you wanted to compete for stories, you wanted to compete for how you wrote them and you, you know, all that's, I am at the point now that was still long ago and things have changed so much and now I don't want an algorithm to be the
- 22:34[SPEAKER_03]: the writing force in my life.
- 22:37[SPEAKER_03]: I don't, you know, unfortunately because what's happening with mainstream media and legacy media, all these people are going to sub-stack.
- 22:44[SPEAKER_03]: And again, I'm not faulting anyone for what they're doing.
- 22:48[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, Jim Acosta went there, but Jim Acosta, like everyone else, is fighting the algorithm.
- 22:54[SPEAKER_03]: And so, you know, it's like in order to get views,
- 22:58[SPEAKER_03]: you have to write hyperbolic headlines, you have to even if your story and then what happens is people see that they go clickbait and they don't trust you and I just don't want to fucking part of it anymore and in the more I see of it, I see these people that are like they're trying to earn money which again, I don't regret, people got to make a fucking living.
- 23:18[SPEAKER_03]: And I got it, you know, and if this is, if you're a writer, if you're an influencer, you got to figure that shit out.
- 23:26[SPEAKER_03]: And you know, I'm grateful that I have a job as a social media manager because I can kind of just go back and hide into that.
- 23:31[SPEAKER_03]: And I can earn my money.
- 23:33[SPEAKER_03]: And I, you know, I don't necessarily have to participate in this.
- 23:37[SPEAKER_03]: I just feel like I can't, I can't be a part of it in the way that I used to because
- 23:42[SPEAKER_03]: I feel like it's getting, you know, because of what's happening, especially because of the legacy media thing, you know, it's, it's leaving, I think at some point there will be a new way that we get news and it won't just be substack, but right now we are in this mode of everything is fucking turned upside down and we're just trying to hold on and I can't be one of these people that's just taking charge.
- 24:11[SPEAKER_03]: Because, you know, I just, I can't, I don't have an in me.
- 24:15[SPEAKER_03]: I don't have the desire, and if I don't have the desire, I can't fucking do it.
- 24:19[SPEAKER_03]: You know, I could do a job that I don't really want to do, because the desire is that I want to pay my bills.
- 24:24[SPEAKER_03]: It's not so much the job, but, you know, in this case, it would be about the act of doing whatever.
- 24:30[SPEAKER_03]: And, you know, the act of writing a blog post, the act of doing an inspired action.
- 24:34[SPEAKER_03]: And I see all these people I'm like, well, dude, everybody else has to fucking do it.
- 24:37[SPEAKER_03]: It's not that I was saving it, because I got so discouraged.
- 24:40[SPEAKER_03]: after the selection, just thinking, what difference am I making?
- 24:44[SPEAKER_03]: You know, what, I mean, in the election, maybe I'm having an effect in people's personal lives, maybe I help people a little bit by sharing a story here or there or whatever, and that's good, and I'm good.
- 24:56[SPEAKER_03]: But I'm not helping the election.
- 24:59[SPEAKER_03]: I didn't, you know, it's not enough.
- 25:01[SPEAKER_03]: And I know that everybody's got to put their little part in, and I still will, but I don't know.
- 25:05[SPEAKER_03]: I just, I don't have, I don't have it in me, and I see things that are out of my control, like my frustration with Chuck Schumer and Hawking Jeffries.
- 25:17[SPEAKER_03]: and, you know, and their inability to fight in a way that we need.
- 25:22[SPEAKER_03]: It's not that I think they're bad people.
- 25:23[SPEAKER_03]: I just, I would like to see them fight harder, and, you know, like you said, why are fucking Democrats confirming anybody that mag is putting up?
- 25:33[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I don't understand that really pisses me on this, you know, when this, when this happened and when these confirmations began, however long ago that was, you know, I don't remember the date right after the diaper was was sworn back in, but, um,
- 25:51[SPEAKER_01]: Hmm, my thing was, oh, yeah, these Democrats, they're not going to confirm a single person.
- 25:56[SPEAKER_01]: You don't vote, yes, on anybody he puts forward, who regardless of their credentials, that's how Republicans play.
- 26:03[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
- 26:03[SPEAKER_01]: Exactly.
- 26:04[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
- 26:04[SPEAKER_03]: That's why they gave us the fucking book, the playbook.
- 26:07[SPEAKER_03]: We should just follow their playbook.
- 26:09[SPEAKER_01]: And I just don't get it.
- 26:12[SPEAKER_01]: So here we are and there idiots and it's like, you know, I have this, this sort of love hate with Cory Booker, you know, he knows me when he speaks when he does it.
- 26:22[SPEAKER_01]: And then it's like, wait a minute.
- 26:24[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 26:24[SPEAKER_01]: I just what what is happening here.
- 26:29[SPEAKER_01]: Give me some Elizabeth Warren.
- 26:30[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 26:31[SPEAKER_01]: Give me some Bernie Sanders.
- 26:33[SPEAKER_01]: Give me some of these members of Congress.
- 26:35[SPEAKER_01]: Give me, okay, let's laugh together on this one.
- 26:38[SPEAKER_01]: Give me some Thomas Massey.
- 26:42[SPEAKER_01]: You know what I mean and what the hell forgive me for saying this, but when Marjorie Taylor Green spoke when she was standing beside those Epstein survivors, I'm like, holy hell, that's the most.
- 26:58[SPEAKER_01]: And she was talking off the top of her head.
- 26:59[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
- 27:00[SPEAKER_01]: She could put sentence.
- 27:01[SPEAKER_01]: No, she was like, what in the hell is happening?
- 27:06[SPEAKER_01]: And she said, I'll name names.
- 27:11[SPEAKER_01]: But, but how do you do that what she did and then go and then walk it back?
- 27:17[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know.
- 27:18[SPEAKER_01]: I'm waiting to see.
- 27:20[SPEAKER_03]: Here's what, you know, Bob said she's pissed off that she didn't get a position in Trump's cabinet, which I'm sure that's she thought she was going to go higher and and then I don't like them.
- 27:30[SPEAKER_03]: So, I think part of this is a little bit of a fuck you to Trump.
- 27:33[SPEAKER_03]: Now, we don't know how she would have behaved if she did get a cabinet position, would she have been standing there with those women?
- 27:41[SPEAKER_03]: Of course not, but I mean, you know, just for the sake of argument, we don't know where she would have been and, you know, it's like, because I posted basically what you said on my Facebook page, you know, it's like, like, I don't like Marjorie Taylor Greene, but I'm all, I'm all about this and I'm happy that she's doing it.
- 28:00[SPEAKER_03]: And frankly, I don't give a shit what the reasons are because in, in times like this, you know, when there's this fact, he's went over.
- 28:09[SPEAKER_01]: champions regardless of who they are.
- 28:11[SPEAKER_03]: Exactly, and if it comes because she's got a grudge against Donald Trump, I don't care.
- 28:15[SPEAKER_03]: And that doesn't mean we have to trust her.
- 28:18[SPEAKER_03]: That doesn't mean we have to like her.
- 28:20[SPEAKER_03]: But we can understand that whatever for whatever reason and that doesn't even have to be our business.
- 28:26[SPEAKER_03]: that she's in support, you know, because some people are saying, well, she's saying, you know, let's get those names out there, but then maybe she's going to redact them.
- 28:34[SPEAKER_03]: She won't have the power to do that.
- 28:36[SPEAKER_03]: She's working with Rokana, who's a Democrat, and Thomas Massey, they're not just going to sit there themselves with a marker.
- 28:44[SPEAKER_03]: they can't do that and so ultimately here i mean i i'm i don't know i don't know how this is all going to unfold and how this is all going to shake out but yeah i mean i'll take the support of marjorie tailor greens if if if it's because she's pissed off a Donald trump does that mean i trust the woman fuck no she's a fucking idiot with the jewish spatial lasers it's like are you serious no you're not serious person but if if you're going to do that
- 29:11[SPEAKER_03]: And, you know, I was, okay, I want to get to the whole thing about Trump's health, because I think, I don't want to talk about God.
- 29:19[SPEAKER_03]: I'll get to take us this long.
- 29:20[SPEAKER_03]: I know, really.
- 29:21[SPEAKER_03]: But I want to say it's my day.
- 29:25[SPEAKER_03]: I know, it's the joy of all of our day.
- 29:27[SPEAKER_03]: But you know, what I see out there, and I wish people would wake up from this, is because we're so used to seeing Trump getting away with everything.
- 29:36[SPEAKER_03]: People have
- 29:38[SPEAKER_03]: that no matter what happens, that he's just going to get away with everything and everything's going to be horrible and nothing's ever going to work out.
- 29:45[SPEAKER_03]: Well, and, you know, like so, for instance, when he disappeared for six days from the public ear because we saw a couple of pictures of him where he didn't look very good, but he didn't say anything.
- 29:57[SPEAKER_03]: And that was a big red flight because, you know, he just can't shut the fuck up.
- 30:00[SPEAKER_03]: And so for six days, he didn't say him and he didn't call into any shows, he didn't talk publicly.
- 30:05[SPEAKER_03]: And so we were all speculating.
- 30:07[SPEAKER_03]: And I feel like because we're not being told the truth.
- 30:10[SPEAKER_03]: And we, you know, whether it's legacy media not doing it's job in really asking the hard questions about Donald Trump, or it's the regime that's never going to be honest with us.
- 30:19[SPEAKER_03]: We, the public, are not getting, you know, any kind of accurate information.
- 30:24[SPEAKER_03]: All we have is speculation.
- 30:27[SPEAKER_03]: So since that's all we have, I'm going to go with, okay, well, this is what it looks like.
- 30:30[SPEAKER_03]: And with Donald Trump, I like to play it like this.
- 30:34[SPEAKER_03]: If he were my father and I loved him, how would I feel?
- 30:38[SPEAKER_03]: Because I don't want it to be about, oh, he looks sick.
- 30:40[SPEAKER_03]: Maybe he's dying.
- 30:42[SPEAKER_03]: And that's why helpful thought.
- 30:43[SPEAKER_03]: No, I want to take it from, if this were my dad, how would I feel?
- 30:48[SPEAKER_03]: I would genuinely share shit.
- 30:50[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I would be worried about him because he does not fucking look good.
- 30:54[SPEAKER_03]: And since we don't know everything and we do hear from doctors who have not been able to check him out or anything.
- 31:02[SPEAKER_03]: But they're like, all right, I can't make a formal diagnosis, but I can say this is what it looks like from here.
- 31:08[SPEAKER_03]: People are saying, congestive, heart failure.
- 31:11[SPEAKER_03]: People are talking about, I think it's as kidneys or as liver.
- 31:14[SPEAKER_03]: I don't remember.
- 31:15[SPEAKER_01]: But, um, it will his, he's in, they say he's in kid, okay.
- 31:18[SPEAKER_01]: Kidney failures and kidney failure because of all of the dioretics he's injecting into his system, um, for his congestive heart failure.
- 31:26[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
- 31:27[SPEAKER_03]: Well, there you go.
- 31:28[SPEAKER_03]: And so that's exactly what I'm talking about.
- 31:29[SPEAKER_03]: It's like, okay, this is what I'm think is what I'm going to finish.
- 31:32[SPEAKER_01]: I'm almost finished with medical school by the way, just just this in case you were wondering.
- 31:37[SPEAKER_03]: But it's like, okay, so.
- 31:40[SPEAKER_03]: when I was putting this out there and saying you know it looks like he might have had a stroke that doesn't mean if you have a stroke your dead that doesn't mean you're laying there like a vegetable it means like in some cases you could have a stroke because I think he's had a bunch of TIAs a bunch of mini strokes and perhaps the other day you know he spoke on Tuesday and then it was six days we didn't hear from him maybe on Tuesday or Wednesday or something like that
- 32:05[SPEAKER_03]: and it affected a speech for a little while, maybe it affected it because we saw pictures of him with no makeup on and his eyes looked fucking dead.
- 32:14[SPEAKER_03]: And like in the car, specifically when we saw him in the car, no makeup on his eyes were just kind of slits and he looked really tired and so they were, you know, they they fucking carted him around the fucking beast in the in the White House limo when he had COVID.
- 32:30[SPEAKER_03]: And he was waving everyone so that I do not put anything you know past them as far as making him go out in public when he doesn't feel good to keep up appearances So I don't know that he had a fucking stroke, but that was just so I just said I said I don't know But this could be a scenario and then I see all these people come on and they go oh, it's probably not that he's probably going to live forever and bubble and it's like why aren't
- 32:55[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, I get the idea that you've been disappointed in the past because whatever you wanted to happen to him didn't happen.
- 33:02[SPEAKER_03]: But just because it didn't happen before, it doesn't mean he's an old fucking unhealthy man.
- 33:07[SPEAKER_03]: It's clear, we can look at him.
- 33:09[SPEAKER_00]: He's got, he's got both of his hands.
- 33:12[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, he's sick.
- 33:13[SPEAKER_03]: So now that he showed himself on Wednesday and he did that unnecessary presser, that presser was literally, hey, I'm still alive.
- 33:22[SPEAKER_03]: That's what it was.
- 33:24[SPEAKER_01]: And when he was pulling on his jacket and maybe had that Elvad Hart thingy underneath his coat is that yeah, yes So you know that I mean like yeah, I'm going can you hear the smile in my voice like what the fuck I'm sorry
- 33:37[SPEAKER_03]: And if you have, if you don't know what that is, just enter on either Twitter or on BlueSky, LVAD, and you'll see the pictures.
- 33:47[SPEAKER_03]: And it's this contraption that you have to wear on your chest and it looked like he had something going on under his jacket.
- 33:53[SPEAKER_03]: So, I mean, again, it's all speculation.
- 33:55[SPEAKER_03]: We don't know, there was speculation that he was wearing a catheter, you know, about a month ago.
- 34:00[SPEAKER_03]: So, we don't know, but this is what I do think.
- 34:04[SPEAKER_03]: Number one, yes, Trump could live to be 100 years old.
- 34:07[SPEAKER_03]: We know the rules for short, right?
- 34:09[SPEAKER_03]: But as I said, if you were my father, I would be like, dude, I'm worried about you.
- 34:16[SPEAKER_03]: You need to slow it down.
- 34:17[SPEAKER_03]: You don't look good.
- 34:19[SPEAKER_03]: And I think, even Alex Jones, I don't know if you heard this, but Alex Jones gave him six to eight.
- 34:23[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah.
- 34:23[SPEAKER_00]: I teach.
- 34:25[SPEAKER_03]: Right.
- 34:25[SPEAKER_03]: And so I think there is- I'm just going to let him in.
- 34:28[SPEAKER_03]: There's this belief that is out there, that he's not going to make it to the end of the term.
- 34:35[SPEAKER_03]: And I genuinely think for her, there's no way, there's no way.
- 34:39[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I think that the only way he would make it to the end of the term is like he's like in a fucking hospital bed barely able to speak.
- 34:46[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think he's going to be up and around in 2028.
- 34:49[SPEAKER_03]: I just don't think it's going to happen.
- 34:51[SPEAKER_03]: I could be wrong.
- 34:52[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know, but I just, I get so irritated.
- 34:55[SPEAKER_03]: That's the other thing.
- 34:56[SPEAKER_03]: I get easily irritated with the public because it's like, so many people are so quick to jump to the, oh, it's never going to happen.
- 35:03[SPEAKER_03]: We're never going to get we want because Teflon, Trump, blah, blah, blah.
- 35:06[SPEAKER_03]: And it's like,
- 35:07[SPEAKER_03]: those people make me so mad and I'm just going to throw this in there too.
- 35:09[SPEAKER_03]: All those fucking absteen survivors are out there putting their lives on the line.
- 35:14[SPEAKER_03]: They're not going oh what's the point?
- 35:16[SPEAKER_03]: What's the point?
- 35:18[SPEAKER_03]: They're fighting for you.
- 35:19[SPEAKER_03]: For all you negative people out there who are just like oh there's no.
- 35:23[SPEAKER_03]: those women are fighting for you, show them some fucking respect, and you know, and don't spread that that whole we're going to lose.
- 35:31[SPEAKER_03]: We've already lost everything's full of doom, and it's like that attitude is nothing makes me more angry than that attitude.
- 35:39[SPEAKER_03]: And trust me, I get scared every fucking day, you know?
- 35:44[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, it's a scary experience we're in, but I refuse
- 35:50[SPEAKER_03]: to allow what they're doing to put me in a mode where I just lay down and go, that's it, what it's over.
- 35:56[SPEAKER_03]: Cause then when you do that, you're right.
- 35:59[SPEAKER_03]: then they win, and then what's the point of these women who have been fucking raped when they were children to go out and say things about what happened and the president, what are you doing?
- 36:13[SPEAKER_03]: You're just slapping and spinning in the face of those people.
- 36:15[SPEAKER_03]: Just makes me so angry.
- 36:17[SPEAKER_03]: I'm sorry, I just had to vent a little bit.
- 36:18[SPEAKER_03]: No, no, but I do think I do think Trump's health is a big issue.
- 36:22[SPEAKER_03]: And I don't know what that means for the next week or for the next month or for, you know, till the end of the year,
- 36:29[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know what that means, but it's clearly an issue.
- 36:34[SPEAKER_03]: He was mentally deficient prior to the election going on and on and on, I'm fucking Arnold Palmer's penis size.
- 36:41[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 36:41[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, that's not normal behavior.
- 36:44[SPEAKER_01]: What a freak, on a leash.
- 36:49[SPEAKER_03]: I wish.
- 36:49[SPEAKER_03]: I wish he was on a leash.
- 36:52[SPEAKER_01]: Oh my god.
- 36:53[SPEAKER_01]: And I say this, I will say this because, and I've said this from the beginning.
- 36:57[SPEAKER_01]: Again, what do I know?
- 36:58[SPEAKER_01]: I do know people.
- 36:59[SPEAKER_01]: I do know personalities I've been alive for 60 years.
- 37:02[SPEAKER_01]: I've seen some shit.
- 37:04[SPEAKER_01]: What I do know is that J.D.
- 37:06[SPEAKER_01]: Vance doesn't have
- 37:08[SPEAKER_01]: No, the juice, I said, someone referred to it as the juice online camera, but he doesn't have the juice to keep this group of bricks united, right?
- 37:20[SPEAKER_01]: He just doesn't have it.
- 37:22[SPEAKER_01]: It's Trump.
- 37:23[SPEAKER_01]: They're afraid of Trump.
- 37:25[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
- 37:25[SPEAKER_01]: And now they're less afraid of Trump because they see he is weak and he's weakened.
- 37:33[SPEAKER_01]: And so, you know, he stands there with his holding this coat with the one other arm, because he knows he can't grab it with the arm close to the LVAD.
- 37:44[SPEAKER_01]: He's wearing diapers.
- 37:45[SPEAKER_01]: He's farting and cabinet meetings like he's wearing makeup on his hands.
- 37:50[SPEAKER_01]: They don't like it.
- 37:51[SPEAKER_01]: It's just the man is not well.
- 37:55[SPEAKER_01]: No.
- 37:55[SPEAKER_01]: And I will say this though, you know, you asked the question, what if it was your dad?
- 38:00[SPEAKER_01]: Well, you're different than the rotted children.
- 38:04[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
- 38:04[SPEAKER_01]: He has produced.
- 38:06[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think his coped out son and, and, and, you know, the other one with the bad gingivitis and Ivanka.
- 38:12[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think they're
- 38:15[SPEAKER_01]: They're like, yeah, you know, what if he kicks, then they can stop living in fear, right?
- 38:19[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, exactly.
- 38:20[SPEAKER_01]: And they're, and they're going to inherit all the money.
- 38:22[SPEAKER_01]: And Melania is probably got freaking, you know, say, on season, who do dolls?
- 38:26[SPEAKER_03]: So, there's that meme of her digging a hole.
- 38:29[SPEAKER_03]: She goes, I make great for husband.
- 38:32[SPEAKER_03]: This is rice.
- 38:34[SPEAKER_03]: Exactly.
- 38:36[SPEAKER_03]: Exactly.
- 38:37[SPEAKER_03]: That was from the fucking first.
- 38:40[SPEAKER_03]: The first time he was president is her standing there with a shovel.
- 38:44[SPEAKER_03]: I made it.
- 38:44[SPEAKER_03]: Good day for us.
- 38:47[SPEAKER_01]: Oh my god.
- 38:48[SPEAKER_03]: But yes, they're all way, like the whole, okay, and then like I have to take this over and it's slightly into the spiritual side of things, just that, like, perfect.
- 38:56[SPEAKER_03]: What, what, you know, energy?
- 39:00[SPEAKER_03]: People pray for, you know, relatives who are sick.
- 39:03[SPEAKER_03]: Please get better, please dear God, you know, help my relative get better.
- 39:07[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, the reverse is happening for Trump.
- 39:10[SPEAKER_03]: It's like, people are praying for him to die.
- 39:12[SPEAKER_03]: People want him to die.
- 39:14[SPEAKER_03]: And there is like all of this energy coming from all over the world.
- 39:19[SPEAKER_03]: Lots, mostly here, but all over the world.
- 39:22[SPEAKER_03]: People want him gone.
- 39:24[SPEAKER_03]: And I don't know what that means, but can you imagine?
- 39:30[SPEAKER_03]: What that energy I think I talked about this on my show before, but it's like I'm not going to get into the details, but there was this one time I was the target of the right and it lasted a few days and it was very uncomfortable.
- 39:47[SPEAKER_03]: Basically what I chose to do was I just kind of didn't address it, you know, I dressed it and then I stopped addressing it and I just made everything private and I waited for everything to go away.
- 39:58[SPEAKER_03]: But I was the target of a lot of negative attention.
- 40:03[SPEAKER_03]: And I understand Donald Trump, he lives in this world where he's probably close to himself off to a lot of the negativity, but he still sees it.
- 40:14[SPEAKER_03]: But regardless of whatever he's aware of, there's just this negative energy
- 40:21[SPEAKER_03]: coming at him every day from, you know, it's like people wake up and they go, did he die yet?
- 40:27[SPEAKER_03]: They check his, you know, they check their phone.
- 40:29[SPEAKER_03]: And the most people do is, is he dead yet?
- 40:33[SPEAKER_03]: And so it's like, there's this, this like energetic push for him to die.
- 40:37[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm not saying that I believe that we could kill him or anything like that with our energy.
- 40:42[SPEAKER_03]: I'm just like, I can't imagine what it must feel like because I know
- 40:50[SPEAKER_03]: open up the door to all of this negative energy and attention.
- 40:53[SPEAKER_03]: And it felt like shit.
- 40:56[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, yeah.
- 40:56[SPEAKER_03]: So I know that he's got a lot of money.
- 40:58[SPEAKER_03]: And I know that he has all the power.
- 41:01[SPEAKER_03]: And I know that he's got the biggest, most massive ego.
- 41:05[SPEAKER_03]: But I think that this negative energy is affecting him.
- 41:10[SPEAKER_03]: I just don't think it's helping him in any way.
- 41:13[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know how all of that works.
- 41:15[SPEAKER_03]: But I can't imagine,
- 41:17[SPEAKER_03]: that it's actually doing, you know what I mean?
- 41:18[SPEAKER_03]: I think it hurts him, and I just don't know how.
- 41:21[SPEAKER_03]: So it's like, I just keep sending it.
- 41:23[SPEAKER_03]: It's just keep sending it.
- 41:24[SPEAKER_03]: Like, fuck you.
- 41:25[SPEAKER_03]: Fuck you, you all, man.
- 41:26[SPEAKER_03]: And, you know, I just want them to go to a soul home now.
- 41:30[SPEAKER_03]: Go to your soul home.
- 41:31[SPEAKER_02]: There you go.
- 41:32[SPEAKER_03]: Because I have given up on any justice.
- 41:34[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think he's ever going to face justice.
- 41:37[SPEAKER_03]: And I can't, it's not anything I can control.
- 41:40[SPEAKER_03]: as much as I'd loved to fucking see him die in a prison.
- 41:42[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think that's ever going to happen.
- 41:44[SPEAKER_03]: So I have to, I just want him out of our lives.
- 41:48[SPEAKER_03]: We all just want him out of our fucking lives.
- 41:49[SPEAKER_03]: But I do think, I think that it's a valid point, though, that he is very unhealthy, aside from our negative energy.
- 41:57[SPEAKER_03]: He is a very unhealthy man, and nobody can determine when his last breath is going to be,
- 42:06[SPEAKER_03]: I just feel like, again, if it were my dad, even if, okay, if I were Ivanka and I didn't give a shit about him, I would think he doesn't have much longer.
- 42:17[SPEAKER_03]: You know, I mean, that's what I would think.
- 42:20[SPEAKER_03]: Because I would just think how, how would anybody look at him and think that he's got a lot of time left.
- 42:27[SPEAKER_02]: Right.
- 42:28[SPEAKER_03]: So I don't know.
- 42:29[SPEAKER_03]: I just, and then going back to JD, you know, because people always like to warn you
- 42:35[SPEAKER_03]: but he's even more dangerous because he's smart.
- 42:37[SPEAKER_03]: Well, first of all, if he becomes the president because something happens to Donald Trump, he absolutely has the power of the presidency and he will be dangerous because he is a smart piece of shit dangerous person and you know we don't know exactly what he's going to do.
- 42:57[SPEAKER_03]: But to your point, he does not have the charisma.
- 43:01[SPEAKER_03]: He does not have whatever it needs to kind of take on the magamovment.
- 43:06[SPEAKER_03]: I think it's funny because Bob and I took my dad last weekend to get Eastburg and Bob was talking about
- 43:15[SPEAKER_03]: the fight at Little Round Top.
- 43:17[SPEAKER_03]: And basically, once the leader, I think it was, I can't remember the guy's name.
- 43:25[SPEAKER_03]: God, I can't remember his name.
- 43:26[SPEAKER_03]: It's not generally.
- 43:27[SPEAKER_03]: I can't remember the guy's name, but it was the guy who was in charge of figuring out what to do at Little Round Top.
- 43:31[SPEAKER_03]: I guess at that point in the war, he was very sick, and he really wasn't in his right mind, and they lost that battle.
- 43:41[SPEAKER_03]: And that was a huge, important battle.
- 43:44[SPEAKER_03]: But what it started, I mean, there was still some years to go before the war was over.
- 43:49[SPEAKER_03]: But that kind of started the end, because if they had one, the little and big top, then, you know, we would have probably had a very different outcome for the civil war.
- 43:59[SPEAKER_03]: And so, but ultimately, the point is there is a point in time when
- 44:07[SPEAKER_03]: So like let's just use Trump as the example, if something were to happen to Trump and he was no longer able to be the president for any reason.
- 44:15[SPEAKER_03]: And J.G.
- 44:15[SPEAKER_03]: took over, I think what that does is it completely changes the dynamic of everything because again to what you said, Trump is the one who keeps it all together.
- 44:24[SPEAKER_01]: They love J.C., they don't care about J.D.
- 44:30[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and so I mean, I don't know how much threats are going to go on behind the scenes and all of that Trump has absolutely left a great playbook for them to follow.
- 44:38[SPEAKER_03]: When it comes to threats and whatnot, like they would even need a playbook, but still, they will use whatever levers of power they have and whatever they can do.
- 44:48[SPEAKER_03]: But yeah, I just, he is going to be dangerous, no doubt,
- 44:54[SPEAKER_03]: juice juice he's not going to he doesn't have it and on top of it I'm never going to fucking let this go that that guy from somewhere in Norland I don't know where was some Norwegian or some some person from that part of the world was I think coming back into America or trying to come to America and he had that picture of JD as garbage pale but hairless garbage pale
- 45:17[SPEAKER_03]: face on his phone and then and then because he was denied entry that particular picture became like the picture that everyone knows J.T.
- 45:25[SPEAKER_03]: has now so it's like the whole fucking world knows him as a garbage pill kid about one right oh my god and sometimes and sometimes with a curly wig on right the curly wig is also hilarious which by the way on Instagram you should look today at Gavin Newsom's Instagram because he's got that version of J.D.
- 45:43[SPEAKER_03]: dancing
- 45:47[SPEAKER_01]: So, they call them J.D.
- 45:49[SPEAKER_01]: Justans.
- 45:53[SPEAKER_01]: That's what you do.
- 45:55[SPEAKER_01]: You know the woman that runs that account.
- 45:58[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, my, 29-year-old Latheena from Southwest in California.
- 46:02[SPEAKER_03]: Fucking awesome.
- 46:04[SPEAKER_01]: She is.
- 46:04[SPEAKER_01]: And I swear to God, Gavin, let's talk about Gavin first.
- 46:09[SPEAKER_03]: Can we look about him?
- 46:13[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, you know, we all California gets mad at Gavin we are so spoiled here.
- 46:19[SPEAKER_01]: I know because we have, you know, but, you know, we're like split and hair as I saw something this morning on I don't remember what it was if it was Instagram or blue skies those of the only two I do.
- 46:30[SPEAKER_01]: Anymore, you know, I gave away Twitter.
- 46:33[SPEAKER_01]: when Elon took over.
- 46:34[SPEAKER_01]: I didn't have 750,000 followers like you guys.
- 46:39[SPEAKER_01]: So I don't know how much money I know, but I let my 2,500 guy that I worked real hard for.
- 46:45[SPEAKER_01]: Oh my god, like I didn't know who gives a shit.
- 46:47[SPEAKER_01]: But by then I went to Threads, which I freaking loved for a while, and I got a bunch of followers there because I did this really cool Tim Waltz post.
- 46:57[SPEAKER_01]: Waltz post.
- 46:58[SPEAKER_01]: and then Mark Zuckerberg made me mad.
- 47:00[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm like, I stopped.
- 47:02[SPEAKER_01]: I got rid of my threads account and then I came over to blue sky and blue sky is good, except for all the horny chicks that want to be friend with their pictures like I just came here on the advice of a friend and there, you know, whatever.
- 47:18[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, fucking A. And so I can't even remember where I was going with this.
- 47:22[SPEAKER_01]: But oh, yeah, Gavin.
- 47:23[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 47:24[SPEAKER_01]: So, you know, somebody put this morning, like legitimately he's refusing to sign a $750,000 grant for Bay Area transit and like that's a really big deal here.
- 47:35[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
- 47:35[SPEAKER_01]: So we got some people that are mad.
- 47:37[SPEAKER_01]: But you know, we're hoping over a plant parent would like are they coming through with something for us because we just are Medicaid right, you know, because we just got gutted over here.
- 47:46[SPEAKER_01]: We're the largest affiliate in the country with we had 35 health centers.
- 47:49[SPEAKER_01]: We had to close five the minute the minute that bill passed.
- 47:54[SPEAKER_01]: We lost 100 million bucks, like you can't keep taking care of people the way you took care of and before when over half your operating budget is out the window and there's an injunction in place and yes we can build for Medicaid, but you know the the Trump administration has same shit like we're going to claw that back when this is the Supreme Court and we know how the handmaid's going to vote and we know how the rapist cabin was going to vote and we know how
- 48:24[SPEAKER_01]: You know, we know how these people, they don't care because, again, to the first topic of discussion, they got theirs and they want more.
- 48:35[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
- 48:36[SPEAKER_01]: So now we got Gavin who's in here, just in his faith, you think that's not going to lead him to have a stroke.
- 48:44[SPEAKER_01]: What's Gavin Newsom?
- 48:45[SPEAKER_01]: He's doing the
- 48:48[SPEAKER_01]: What this Camille Sapata, the 29 year old woman from Stockton, is putting up on this social media like that is making his hand more purple.
- 48:58[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and it's time.
- 49:00[SPEAKER_01]: And time.
- 49:00[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
- 49:01[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
- 49:03[SPEAKER_01]: And so.
- 49:03[SPEAKER_01]: I'm looking around and Gavin Newsom is a rock star, not just near in California, but across the country.
- 49:11[SPEAKER_01]: I say, give me more and let's stop with the purity tests granted.
- 49:15[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not saying let's not want $750 million for transit in the big area.
- 49:23[SPEAKER_01]: But what I'm saying is,
- 49:25[SPEAKER_01]: Let's look at what this man has been able to do, Gavin, in the last however many months, right?
- 49:30[SPEAKER_01]: See, is it so not afraid of Trump?
- 49:34[SPEAKER_01]: California's are not afraid of Trump.
- 49:37[SPEAKER_01]: We are going to redistrict the fuck out of this state.
- 49:40[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, and we are going to take back the house and Gavin Newsom is going to be the poster child for that movement that helped us regain power.
- 49:51[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, maybe it's going to put a little spring and Hakeen Jeffries step.
- 49:56[SPEAKER_01]: Heck yeah, he will be the leader, because Democrats are united there and we don't know what goes on behind the scenes, but I want some Gavin Newsom energy all the way to 2028.
- 50:06[SPEAKER_01]: Well, yeah, you and you want to talk about juice.
- 50:10[SPEAKER_01]: This is all juice right now.
- 50:12[SPEAKER_01]: He's all juice.
- 50:13[SPEAKER_01]: JB Pritzker is all juice.
- 50:16[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, different way.
- 50:17[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, right.
- 50:18[SPEAKER_01]: Westmore is all juice.
- 50:20[SPEAKER_03]: Love love love.
- 50:22[SPEAKER_03]: I'm so glad because Larry Hogan was our governor and he was a Republican and everybody was under the fucking false impression that he was a centrist, but he wasn't.
- 50:30[SPEAKER_03]: He was just held now.
- 50:31[SPEAKER_03]: He was held back by democratic legislature that whenever he tried to do anything, they would say, fuck you know.
- 50:37[SPEAKER_03]: But he was not our friend, but because, no, no, no.
- 50:40[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, because the Democratic legislature kept him from doing what he wanted.
- 50:43[SPEAKER_03]: People thought he was more of a centrist and he's not.
- 50:45[SPEAKER_03]: But one thing I want to say about Gavin Newsom is that, you know, I mean, he's certainly not my favorite.
- 50:49[SPEAKER_03]: He's not my favorite Democrat in the whole world.
- 50:51[SPEAKER_03]: But absolutely, I agree, 100% with everything you say.
- 50:55[SPEAKER_03]: And here's what I, you know, Gavin said, look, we need to destroy Donald Trump's presidency, which means we need to win in the midterms.
- 51:04[SPEAKER_03]: So right now that's his job and I'm seeing all these, you know, of course everybody is jumping to 2028 because we're so desperate to get rid of Trump and we're also like who's going to be because we want the person who's going to have the the best chance to win and right now Gavin Gavin has the most attention because he is tall decent looking white man who is
- 51:27[SPEAKER_03]: using his power correctly.
- 51:29[SPEAKER_03]: He's he yeah, he's I mean, I don't know.
- 51:32[SPEAKER_02]: He's looking.
- 51:34[SPEAKER_02]: Like I don't think he's today.
- 51:37[SPEAKER_01]: Look at him.
- 51:37[SPEAKER_01]: He's handsome.
- 51:39[SPEAKER_01]: He's tall.
- 51:39[SPEAKER_01]: He's healthy.
- 51:40[SPEAKER_01]: He's fit.
- 51:41[SPEAKER_01]: He's he's fit.
- 51:42[SPEAKER_01]: He's he's he's he's he's the most he knows.
- 51:48[SPEAKER_01]: what he knows that everything that's going to come out of his mouth is going to be it's that he's got conviction.
- 51:54[SPEAKER_01]: He knows what he's talking about.
- 51:56[SPEAKER_03]: He's very sharp when he's talking about all the time.
- 51:59[SPEAKER_03]: He doesn't know what the fucking subject but here but what I want to say though is
- 52:04[SPEAKER_03]: the way I look at Gavin Newsome, I'm not even thinking about the presidency right now, because number one, we have to get through the midterms.
- 52:12[SPEAKER_03]: That has to happen.
- 52:13[SPEAKER_03]: Otherwise, there is no fucking presidency to worry about.
- 52:17[SPEAKER_03]: But Gavin can't, you know, okay, let's just say we do.
- 52:20[SPEAKER_03]: We win the house.
- 52:22[SPEAKER_03]: And let's say they're, let's say that because people are so fucking miserable that we actually get the Senate too.
- 52:27[SPEAKER_03]: So we have completely taken over Congress,
- 52:33[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, Gavin's job is going to be slightly different than and he's he will be running for president clearly we know that's what he wants to do he I don't think he's going to run for president in the way that he's conducting himself right now because what he's doing right now is a specific strategy to win the midterms.
- 52:56[SPEAKER_03]: This is not a presidential run.
- 52:58[SPEAKER_03]: This is leading up to his presidential run.
- 53:00[SPEAKER_03]: But then, the field is going to open up.
- 53:03[SPEAKER_03]: Obviously, there's going to be all these Democrats who go, I want to piece, I want to piece, I want to piece.
- 53:07[SPEAKER_03]: And we don't know who is going to be inspired during this time.
- 53:12[SPEAKER_03]: and what they're going to do.
- 53:14[SPEAKER_03]: And so I kind of see Gavin right now as a bridge.
- 53:18[SPEAKER_03]: He's a bridge to get us hopefully past the selection where the Democrats win.
- 53:23[SPEAKER_03]: Then we start figuring out who is the leader of the party now.
- 53:28[SPEAKER_03]: Who is the one who's and is it going to be I don't know if it's going to be Gavin and obviously he's he's problematic right there are things that you know of course he's he's had all kinds of problems and you know I mean I'm I always say the same thing I'm backing the Democrat I don't love him but if he's the nominee I'm voting for him
- 53:45[SPEAKER_03]: I don't care who the man is.
- 53:46[SPEAKER_01]: I'm voting for that first during Carbunkel with it.
- 53:49[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, by its name is getting my vote.
- 53:51[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'm not just over here.
- 53:52[SPEAKER_03]: So, you know, but it's like, but I think, but I think it's premature to start assuming that he's the one or we should do that.
- 54:00[SPEAKER_03]: He's we don't know yet.
- 54:02[SPEAKER_03]: He is a bridge to get us over that midterm hump.
- 54:06[SPEAKER_03]: It's not in 2026, you know.
- 54:08[SPEAKER_01]: I know.
- 54:09[SPEAKER_01]: So look, you know, who's it gonna be?
- 54:12[SPEAKER_01]: People are gonna emerge, you know, certainly Seth Molten will be on the dais.
- 54:16[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, you know, you're gonna have 95, throwaways.
- 54:20[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, no, no disrespect, but come on, I don't you mean, like they're gonna try more than I have there.
- 54:25[SPEAKER_01]: You know, we've, what, what I think right now, and I didn't need to cut you off that I'm like, I'm piling on.
- 54:30[SPEAKER_01]: We have a long way to go, but Gavin can help get us to 26 and to a victory there.
- 54:36[SPEAKER_01]: And he's proving it in California and already, you know, he doesn't do anything half-assed.
- 54:42[SPEAKER_01]: He thought this through.
- 54:43[SPEAKER_01]: He's holding it.
- 54:45[SPEAKER_01]: They went to the state legislature.
- 54:47[SPEAKER_01]: He's working in concert with our state electives, right?
- 54:52[SPEAKER_01]: They all agree, we're taking this to the voters.
- 54:55[SPEAKER_01]: And those were his talking points from the jump.
- 54:57[SPEAKER_01]: We're taking this to the voters.
- 54:59[SPEAKER_01]: We're not going to tell people what's happening.
- 55:02[SPEAKER_01]: We're taking it to your vote is your voice.
- 55:05[SPEAKER_01]: And we want to know, is this what you think is right?
- 55:08[SPEAKER_01]: Well, of course, California is saying that's what's right.
- 55:10[SPEAKER_01]: So he's, you know, he's no fool.
- 55:12[SPEAKER_01]: We're going to, we're going to slay this thing.
- 55:14[SPEAKER_01]: Tala, fawn, y'all.
- 55:17[SPEAKER_03]: And, you know, he is being obnoxious and that is why it's working.
- 55:23[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think he can run a malicious, and I don't think he can run a presidential campaign in the same way that he's doing this.
- 55:32[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think he would.
- 55:33[SPEAKER_01]: And he's not going to have an absurd social media.
- 55:36[SPEAKER_01]: They're not going to be making fun of it.
- 55:37[SPEAKER_01]: They're going to be serious.
- 55:38[SPEAKER_01]: You're right.
- 55:38[SPEAKER_01]: You're right.
- 55:39[SPEAKER_01]: You're right.
- 55:39[SPEAKER_01]: You're right.
- 55:40[SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
- 55:40[SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
- 55:40[SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
- 55:41[SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
- 55:41[SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
- 55:41[SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
- 55:42[SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
- 55:42[SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
- 55:43[SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
- 55:44[SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
- 55:44[SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
- 55:45[SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
- 55:45[SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
- 55:46[SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
- 55:46[SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
- 55:47[SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
- 55:47[SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
- 55:47[SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
- 55:48[SPEAKER_03]: You're right.
- 56:00[SPEAKER_03]: I think people, I don't know what's going to happen with Pete Buttigieg.
- 56:04[SPEAKER_03]: But I really like him and the reason I love him and people go, well, he can't win because he's gay and I say bullshit.
- 56:11[SPEAKER_03]: He's got a penis and that's enough for a lot of people in this country.
- 56:15[SPEAKER_03]: Most people in this country don't give a shit if you're gay.
- 56:17[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, the evangelical people you know.
- 56:21[SPEAKER_03]: Well, no, I know, but, okay, look, who would have thought a black man could have won?
- 56:27[SPEAKER_03]: And then Obama won, because the circumstances at that time all fit together so that Obama was able to ascend in the way that he ascended.
- 56:38[SPEAKER_03]: But if you would have said to someone prior to his arrival on the scene, our is America ready for a black president, everyone would have said no.
- 56:45[SPEAKER_03]: everyone who said no.
- 56:47[SPEAKER_03]: But because of Bush, because of all the things that happened and yes, you throw Sarah Palin in there and you throw that, you know, the economic thing that happened, those all played a role.
- 56:59[SPEAKER_03]: So that's why I'm saying like, you know, in this case, people to judge has been on Fox News, time and again.
- 57:05[SPEAKER_01]: So talk down every time.
- 57:07[SPEAKER_03]: Yes.
- 57:08[SPEAKER_03]: And never getting angry, never getting angry, never being an asshole.
- 57:12[SPEAKER_03]: He's always just so reasonable and pressured and so this is brilliant.
- 57:18[SPEAKER_03]: So while I agree that there are a number of people in this country who wouldn't vote for him because he's gay, I don't think it's, you know, because you have to say, Democrats aren't going to give a shit.
- 57:26[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, so we got the Democrats and then it's going to be the independence.
- 57:31[SPEAKER_03]: And so these people, a lot of them are right leaning, but they're not right leaning socially, they're right leaning more under the illusion of what they think Republicans do.
- 57:41[SPEAKER_03]: You know, they have this, I don't know.
- 57:43[SPEAKER_03]: They think Republicans are responsible with money.
- 57:45[SPEAKER_03]: And I don't know why, because all you have to do is look at the fucking history and see that that's not the case.
- 57:50[SPEAKER_03]: But regardless, you know, yes, sometimes Democrats want to go crazy with their spending and it's good to rain the back end.
- 57:56[SPEAKER_03]: blah, blah, blah, blah.
- 57:57[SPEAKER_03]: But the whole point is, all these independence were right-leaning, are not hardcore mega types.
- 58:02[SPEAKER_03]: They're the people who voted for Joe Biden.
- 58:04[SPEAKER_03]: And I just don't think Pete Buttigieg is being gay would stop him from winning.
- 58:10[SPEAKER_03]: I do think that sure some people aren't going to like it.
- 58:13[SPEAKER_03]: But I just don't think that that would be the big reason why he wouldn't win.
- 58:18[SPEAKER_03]: Where I can say a black woman,
- 58:21[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I think that it's clear this country, I mean, votes were thrown away legitimately for her, so there is that.
- 58:32[SPEAKER_03]: But fewer people fewer Democrats specifically came out, and not even just Democrats, people voting because there was a whole bunch of people who voted for Joe Biden who didn't even vote.
- 58:42[SPEAKER_03]: And it was because it was a black woman.
- 58:45[SPEAKER_03]: and they believe whatever bullshit they heard about her.
- 58:48[SPEAKER_03]: Do I think a woman can win?
- 58:49[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, Hillary proved it, but do I trust that a woman can win?
- 58:52[SPEAKER_03]: Under our electoral college?
- 58:54[SPEAKER_03]: No.
- 58:54[SPEAKER_03]: No, they hate women.
- 58:56[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, but it's the way that the system has been devised that it's against women because the public voted for Hillary Clinton.
- 59:07[SPEAKER_03]: three million more people voted for her.
- 59:09[SPEAKER_03]: So yes, a woman can win, but our system is keeping that from happening.
- 59:14[SPEAKER_03]: And this always brings me to the point that I know that feminist would just be so mad at me.
- 59:19[SPEAKER_03]: But I feel like, you know, I see that argument all the time that say women,
- 59:25[SPEAKER_01]: Didn't we just hear a scream?
- 59:26[SPEAKER_01]: I apologize.
- 59:27[SPEAKER_01]: I have a teenager in that.
- 59:28[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I didn't even make my apologies.
- 59:30[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, sorry, keep going keep going I've always heard like thumb and a say, you know, women didn't win the right to vote.
- 59:37[SPEAKER_03]: We took it and it's like, okay, the the history shows us that it was a man who it was it was the remember the ladies man
- 59:45[SPEAKER_03]: who voted.
- 59:46[SPEAKER_03]: It took men because men were the only ones voting on it.
- 59:49[SPEAKER_03]: Men decided and so it's like Joe Biden was the man who decided that we would have a female vice president.
- 59:57[SPEAKER_03]: It's because patriarchy, men have the power and it's like, I don't like it, but in order, that's why I would feel more comfortable and I know so many people are going to fucking, they hate when I say this.
- 1:00:10[SPEAKER_03]: In this next election,
- 1:00:14[SPEAKER_03]: So I want to put up the safest bet.
- 1:00:18[SPEAKER_03]: It's not that I think women can't win.
- 1:00:21[SPEAKER_03]: Hillary should have won.
- 1:00:22[SPEAKER_03]: She did win the popular vote, but the electoral college, which was designed by fucking racist white men, hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of years ago, is makes it that much harder for a woman to win.
- 1:00:36[SPEAKER_03]: And then throw a woman of color in, forget it.
- 1:00:39[SPEAKER_03]: We don't have enough intelligence in this country.
- 1:00:41[SPEAKER_03]: There's too much misogyny.
- 1:00:43[SPEAKER_03]: There's too much sexism.
- 1:00:44[SPEAKER_03]: It's just too much.
- 1:00:46[SPEAKER_03]: And racism.
- 1:00:47[SPEAKER_03]: And all of it.
- 1:00:48[SPEAKER_01]: And so I'll build on that.
- 1:00:50[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's the whole.
- 1:00:51[SPEAKER_03]: And so I know they don't want to hear this.
- 1:00:54[SPEAKER_03]: And I don't want to hear it.
- 1:00:56[SPEAKER_03]: But it's like, when I would prefer, I don't care who it is, whoever can win, to white men.
- 1:01:01[SPEAKER_03]: I want to white men.
- 1:01:04[SPEAKER_03]: And then those white men better get fucking busy.
- 1:01:08[SPEAKER_03]: doing what they need because you know what I will say the uh... at the very very beginning of Joe Biden's presidency he could have uh... past the r a and it didn't happen and it's not to say that he could have done himself because he couldn't but he could have pushed for it could have pushed for it there could have been this big vocal thing and there wasn't and and we had we had all the states it was all done
- 1:01:32[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you want to know what else we need to do, babe, I'm just going to put this out there and my husband says it's all the time he's like, what do we stand for?
- 1:01:40[SPEAKER_01]: One sentence.
- 1:01:41[SPEAKER_01]: What do we stand for?
- 1:01:43[SPEAKER_01]: Okay?
- 1:01:44[SPEAKER_01]: And let's all get in on that, right?
- 1:01:48[SPEAKER_01]: And then all the rest of the stuff flows from it because we have, you know, what do they, we have a big tent?
- 1:01:53[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we fucking do because we care about human beings, we care about health care, we care about housing, we care about,
- 1:02:01[SPEAKER_01]: Putting an end to poverty and racism and making sure that people really truly do have bodily autonomy in whatever That you know you don't want to fucking vaccination find idiot don't get vaccinated But don't tell me that I can't right that I can't and don't tell me
- 1:02:18[SPEAKER_01]: That I can't be a 17 year old poor kid who's deciding whether I pick take my last $20 and put gas in my car so I can go to my job or put food in my fucking mouth that I can't have an abortion.
- 1:02:28[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
- 1:02:29[SPEAKER_01]: Go to hell.
- 1:02:30[SPEAKER_01]: That's not for you to decide.
- 1:02:32[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
- 1:02:32[SPEAKER_01]: Let's not tell people of color and poor people who are marginalized or or the LGBT community.
- 1:02:39[SPEAKER_01]: We don't fucking care about you and you don't deserve the same.
- 1:02:41[SPEAKER_01]: You know the opportunity.
- 1:02:44[SPEAKER_01]: to thrive.
- 1:02:45[SPEAKER_01]: I'm so sick and tired.
- 1:02:47[SPEAKER_01]: I really wanted to win that $2 billion yesterday because I would start to make it changes on all those things that I care about.
- 1:02:54[SPEAKER_01]: Right now, what do we stand for?
- 1:02:56[SPEAKER_01]: So Ron Mamdoni, he has run a successful campaign because New York is too expensive for New Yorkers that resonates with people.
- 1:03:07[SPEAKER_01]: You know, oh, well, these people think
- 1:03:14[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, yeah.
- 1:03:15[SPEAKER_01]: I don't want to hear it.
- 1:03:17[SPEAKER_01]: I want people to be able to survive in the cities that they built, okay.
- 1:03:22[SPEAKER_01]: What do we stand for?
- 1:03:25[SPEAKER_01]: What do we stand for?
- 1:03:27[SPEAKER_01]: Not what do we stand against?
- 1:03:29[SPEAKER_01]: What do we stand for?
- 1:03:31[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
- 1:03:31[SPEAKER_01]: And you better start figuring that out right now because November 2026 is around the corner, and that is going to set the precedent for what happens in November of 2028.
- 1:03:43[SPEAKER_01]: And if you don't get your shit figured out Democratic Party by by next November 2026, then guess what?
- 1:03:51[SPEAKER_01]: This ain't a place where a lot of people are going to be able to live.
- 1:03:56[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, exactly.
- 1:03:57[SPEAKER_03]: And I mean, just to take this back because as much as I would love to, you know, in my lifetime, I hope I get to see a woman president.
- 1:04:04[SPEAKER_03]: I hope I get to see somebody like Kamala Harris or Elizabeth Warren or, you know, whatever.
- 1:04:09[SPEAKER_03]: I just, or even IOC.
- 1:04:12[SPEAKER_01]: And I know a lot of people out there, and she's got the juice, baby.
- 1:04:17[SPEAKER_03]: She's got the juice, and it's just, the thing is, though, it's like I was saying that whole remember the ladies think in, you know, the 19th Amendment where that guy's mother left the note in his jacket, don't forget the women, and then he voted for suffrage.
- 1:04:34[SPEAKER_03]: And it took a man to do it.
- 1:04:37[SPEAKER_03]: So it's going to take men.
- 1:04:40[SPEAKER_03]: who are liberal minded and are all about equality and equity and all that to help turn the country into a place where it's not up to a man anymore.
- 1:04:53[SPEAKER_03]: Where, you know, I mean, we're going backwards with the Trump administration or I should say regime.
- 1:04:59[SPEAKER_03]: But, you know, like, there's more women in Congress now and all that stuff than there had ever been and that's really great.
- 1:05:04[SPEAKER_03]: But it's still, we're still lagging behind.
- 1:05:09[SPEAKER_03]: for in so many ways we need we are not past patriarchy right now because men hold the majority of power in this country and as long as that's how they always have and it's long of time exactly and as long as that's the case it will be men in many cases well in all cases who decide okay we're gonna let women in
- 1:05:31[SPEAKER_03]: And you know, like again, Joe Biden, he was like, I'm going to use the power that I have to open up this glass, you know, to crack this glass ceiling help this help women, but it, but that's because it's the power structure.
- 1:05:45[SPEAKER_03]: And people don't like that.
- 1:05:47[SPEAKER_03]: They don't want to, okay, it's the same idea of when you look at a fucking 16 year old kid and you go, you shouldn't have sex.
- 1:05:56[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, that's a nice stop, isn't it?
- 1:05:57[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, they shouldn't have sex.
- 1:05:59[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
- 1:06:00[SPEAKER_03]: Well, it's just like you wait.
- 1:06:02[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it's like we should have a woman president.
- 1:06:05[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, we should.
- 1:06:06[SPEAKER_03]: We should have a woman president.
- 1:06:08[SPEAKER_03]: But what are you going to do now?
- 1:06:09[SPEAKER_01]: We should, shouldn't, shouldn't, shouldn't make shit.
- 1:06:11[SPEAKER_01]: Doesn't cut it, right?
- 1:06:12[SPEAKER_01]: Doing.
- 1:06:13[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I can't hope for things.
- 1:06:15[SPEAKER_01]: You got to put action behind it.
- 1:06:17[SPEAKER_03]: Yes.
- 1:06:17[SPEAKER_03]: And you need allies.
- 1:06:18[SPEAKER_03]: You need the people who have the power to open up those doors for you.
- 1:06:22[SPEAKER_03]: And right now, that's men.
- 1:06:24[SPEAKER_03]: So that's what I say.
- 1:06:26[SPEAKER_03]: You know, it's not that I, when I say I want white men to run, it's because it's the safest fucking bet.
- 1:06:33[SPEAKER_03]: And when those men win, they need to get fucking busy to make it so that it's not always, you know, to the white man, like everything isn't the advantage for white men, so that it is more equal.
- 1:06:46[SPEAKER_03]: And I hope we can get there.
- 1:06:49[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I feel like I feel like, you know, there's the whole,
- 1:06:53[SPEAKER_03]: Burn it all down to rebuild.
- 1:06:56[SPEAKER_03]: Well, okay, that's what happened, right?
- 1:06:58[SPEAKER_03]: We're burning it all down right now.
- 1:06:59[SPEAKER_03]: Everything is fucking being burned down.
- 1:07:01[SPEAKER_03]: So there is an opportunity in the burning down of everything.
- 1:07:05[SPEAKER_03]: To go back to FDR, go back to times in our country after the great depression, how we had this big huge change that Ruth Bader Ginsburg said, the pendulum always swings in the other direction.
- 1:07:18[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, well, if history is, if that's the truth, okay, that, that pendulum has to swing in the more liberal progressive direction, or we just cement into fascism.
- 1:07:29[SPEAKER_03]: And so, you know, that's why I don't wanna hear where it could, because at the beginning of any kind of autocratic regime, fascist regime, that is when you can overcome it.
- 1:07:39[SPEAKER_03]: When it's cement, it becomes, you know, 10 million times more difficult.
- 1:07:44[SPEAKER_03]: to overcome that.
- 1:07:45[SPEAKER_03]: So, I mean, I don't know how it's going to happen, but I can guarantee it's not going to happen by rolling over and go, they've won or cooked and were doomed.
- 1:07:51[SPEAKER_03]: I just, I can't take that fucking message.
- 1:07:55[SPEAKER_03]: It's not necessarily true.
- 1:07:56[SPEAKER_03]: That's a decision someone's made because they're afraid.
- 1:07:59[SPEAKER_03]: And we're all fucking afraid.
- 1:08:01[SPEAKER_03]: And, you know, but, you know, I listen to this woman park Rose Permert,
- 1:08:06[SPEAKER_03]: because Park Rose permaculture is her name on YouTube and, you know, she's wonderful to listen to because she is progressive, but she's not, she's pragmatic and she's always talking about what we can do.
- 1:08:20[SPEAKER_03]: And she mentions, like, indivisible.
- 1:08:23[SPEAKER_03]: So, you know, she'll talk about, you know, there's like a week we call on Thursdays and it's a national call that everybody can call into and listen to whatever is going on.
- 1:08:33[SPEAKER_03]: But there are things you can do in your community and what, like, what Park Rose permacode, I don't know what her name is, but she talks about, she lives in this kind of rural Oregon area, mostly white people.
- 1:08:46[SPEAKER_03]: And she said, you know, the people who are showing up in protesting in these small royal, like these little rural areas are old white boomers, they're showing up, you know, and so it's like, and that means something that means something and it's like, even if there's 50 of them.
- 1:09:03[SPEAKER_03]: We don't need to fill the streets with people every day, but that means something, and the thing is that if you're a white person and you have some privilege, then you need to put a little of it in your privilege to protect the less vulnerable people who are in much more danger than you are.
- 1:09:24[SPEAKER_03]: We're all in some kind of danger here, but you know, if you know you know very well,
- 1:09:31[SPEAKER_03]: that's automatic.
- 1:09:33[SPEAKER_03]: You're in a more dangerous situation.
- 1:09:36[SPEAKER_03]: And so the people who have the privilege need to use their privilege to speak up to speak out to do what they can and not everything is about knocking on a door.
- 1:09:44[SPEAKER_03]: So it's like indivisible, doesn't just say go knock on a door and try to convince someone to vote for whoever.
- 1:09:49[SPEAKER_03]: It's like here's a food kitchen you can donate to.
- 1:09:52[SPEAKER_03]: Here are the vulnerable people in your area.
- 1:09:55[SPEAKER_03]: that if they, you know, maybe you can give a ride to someone who needs, like, got to go to a doctor appointment or something like that.
- 1:10:02[SPEAKER_03]: But it's like ways to help your community, especially during fascist fucking takeovers, where the vulnerable are the ones who are the most at risk of, you know, whether it's losing their health care and then you, so help, help them.
- 1:10:18[SPEAKER_03]: and that's what invisible is doing.
- 1:10:20[SPEAKER_03]: It's not just about voting.
- 1:10:21[SPEAKER_03]: It's about how can you do things in your community to help people during this particular, I don't know, I don't know, just the fascist takeover, because that's what it is.
- 1:10:33[SPEAKER_03]: It's just, I don't know, it's so terrifying.
- 1:10:36[SPEAKER_03]: I know I could, I know I could talk to you all day.
- 1:10:38[SPEAKER_03]: We've been talking for a long time now, so I'm thinking maybe we should, we should start wrapping it up.
- 1:10:43[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, you have to do things on your Sunday and I have to do things on my way out.
- 1:10:48[SPEAKER_01]: I've got to get out of this night.
- 1:10:49[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, Jesus God And I got to go have another cup of coffee We just hours behind me, so it's time.
- 1:10:58[SPEAKER_01]: No, and I slept kind of late I've got this I'm gonna close with this because we do we have to take care of ourselves Right so that we can be strong for this fight, right?
- 1:11:08[SPEAKER_01]: Which Kimberly Kimberly?
- 1:11:10[SPEAKER_01]: I'm long of I know you 12 years.
- 1:11:12[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah
- 1:11:13[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, you and I have been in this together for 10, you know, I mean, like we've got and then we read, we joined forces and started this fight really in earnest right with our videos.
- 1:11:29[SPEAKER_01]: I resist the Trump administration.
- 1:11:31[SPEAKER_01]: Remember, I resist the Trump members of those videos.
- 1:11:33[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
- 1:11:34[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, man, of course, we're idea for the plan parenthood.
- 1:11:37[SPEAKER_01]: Right, which by the way, I wish I would have known now, you know, we should have whatever we should have directed those funds to health care on the ground, but listen, listen to me.
- 1:11:46[SPEAKER_01]: It's okay.
- 1:11:47[SPEAKER_01]: We got we got some we got some fucking mileage out of that and raised millions of bucks off of that.
- 1:11:53[SPEAKER_01]: I'm proud of us for that and then somebody stole it, but we could go into that on another episode.
- 1:11:58[SPEAKER_01]: But we gotta take care of ourselves.
- 1:12:00[SPEAKER_01]: I take my Sundays, or I don't make plans really other than like stuff like this, because I'm in my job.
- 1:12:06[SPEAKER_01]: And you know, I'm gonna go take a walk with my girlfriend and my dog, and we'll get a latte, and it'll be great.
- 1:12:10[SPEAKER_01]: It's gonna be amazing, but I sleep in now.
- 1:12:13[SPEAKER_01]: Cause I can't sleep in.
- 1:12:14[SPEAKER_01]: I'm a 530, didn't yet, I sleep in on Sundays.
- 1:12:19[SPEAKER_01]: I, I drink my coffee slow.
- 1:12:20[SPEAKER_01]: How is he sleep?
- 1:12:22[SPEAKER_01]: What is it going to put 925?
- 1:12:23[SPEAKER_01]: That needs to be my number 925.
- 1:12:26[SPEAKER_01]: Huh.
- 1:12:27[SPEAKER_01]: That's four hours longer than I usually sleep.
- 1:12:29[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 1:12:30[SPEAKER_01]: So I like my body, my body loves this.
- 1:12:33[SPEAKER_01]: It's really good.
- 1:12:34[SPEAKER_01]: I, you know, I clean up my house.
- 1:12:35[SPEAKER_01]: I do my laundry, whatever.
- 1:12:37[SPEAKER_01]: My husband cooks amazing food.
- 1:12:39[SPEAKER_01]: Like it's just, it really is nice.
- 1:12:41[SPEAKER_01]: We're in a groove.
- 1:12:42[SPEAKER_01]: Our daughter's a senior in high school.
- 1:12:44[SPEAKER_01]: My nieces here this weekend.
- 1:12:46[SPEAKER_01]: Those two girls have literally like,
- 1:12:48[SPEAKER_01]: just been literally physically connected since Friday when when they got together.
- 1:12:52[SPEAKER_01]: So there's joy happening in the house, but it's just like we got to take care of ourselves so that we can get gnarly in the streets.
- 1:13:01[SPEAKER_01]: Just like my mom and dad used to say, and this was my mother.
- 1:13:04[SPEAKER_01]: My father passed many, many years ago, but my mom and dad, and they've always said it, you know, your
- 1:13:13[SPEAKER_01]: These are the things that are important to your mother and I remember my dad saying to me in 1984, your mom and I approach choice Catholics.
- 1:13:19[SPEAKER_01]: That's how we vote.
- 1:13:21[SPEAKER_01]: That's one of the determinations that we make before we cast a vote for a candidate.
- 1:13:42[SPEAKER_01]: She lived through the first Trump administration.
- 1:13:45[SPEAKER_01]: She got to see the gnarlyness that that brought about.
- 1:13:49[SPEAKER_01]: And she got to see her kids and her grandkids, you know, really step up and be active and against it.
- 1:13:56[SPEAKER_01]: So she was like,
- 1:13:57[SPEAKER_01]: She goes, you know, you're dad and I were in the streets.
- 1:13:59[SPEAKER_01]: We were in the streets for the civil rights, we were in the streets for the United Farm Workers Movement.
- 1:14:04[SPEAKER_01]: We were in the streets for abortion rights.
- 1:14:07[SPEAKER_01]: I can't believe what I'm seeing.
- 1:14:09[SPEAKER_01]: I know she's like wherever in the afterlife can down, because I know she's looking down.
- 1:14:14[SPEAKER_01]: And she's going, you fuckers better not take your feet off the gas pedal.
- 1:14:18[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 1:14:19[SPEAKER_01]: And I don't care how tired you are.
- 1:14:21[SPEAKER_01]: Take care of yourselves so you can be strong.
- 1:14:25[SPEAKER_01]: for this fight.
- 1:14:26[SPEAKER_01]: We've been you and me in a fight for 10 solid years together, arm and arm, taking each other out of the gutter when we're feeling low.
- 1:14:38[SPEAKER_01]: You know, I call you and I'm like, I know they're not a magician, but what do you think of this?
- 1:14:44[SPEAKER_01]: But like, that's what we got to do.
- 1:14:45[SPEAKER_01]: That's that's our role and then our legacy.
- 1:14:49[SPEAKER_01]: So we got to do that fight.
- 1:14:50[SPEAKER_01]: I got kids who vote now.
- 1:14:52[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 1:14:53[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
- 1:14:54[SPEAKER_01]: My daughter gets to vote in 2026.
- 1:14:57[SPEAKER_01]: My son has been voting now.
- 1:14:59[SPEAKER_01]: This will be his third cycle.
- 1:15:01[SPEAKER_01]: So cool.
- 1:15:02[SPEAKER_01]: In 2026.
- 1:15:03[SPEAKER_01]: It's rad.
- 1:15:04[SPEAKER_01]: And he said to me, it's your turn.
- 1:15:06[SPEAKER_01]: It is rad.
- 1:15:07[SPEAKER_01]: He goes to into NYU.
- 1:15:09[SPEAKER_01]: And he's super into the whole mom Donnie thing.
- 1:15:12[SPEAKER_01]: He's like, that's my dude.
- 1:15:13[SPEAKER_01]: He goes, Mom, I don't want to give up my California voting status though, and I said, okay, we can't go voter fraud is voting in New York and California.
- 1:15:21[SPEAKER_01]: So we pick one.
- 1:15:22[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 1:15:23[SPEAKER_01]: And, but like, this is there is the hope, right?
- 1:15:27[SPEAKER_01]: Because I ain't going to get tired.
- 1:15:28[SPEAKER_01]: I will drag my rickety ass out to any
- 1:15:32[SPEAKER_01]: process.
- 1:15:33[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to come to I'm coming to DC.
- 1:15:36[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to see you for the right reasons to get behind the movement that's going to help make the change really truly happen.
- 1:15:44[SPEAKER_01]: And then we're going to keep doing this right.
- 1:15:46[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, we will keep doing it.
- 1:15:48[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, this is what I'm going to wrap on totally different.
- 1:15:51[SPEAKER_03]: Um, okay, there's two different things.
- 1:15:54[SPEAKER_03]: So these are just silly.
- 1:15:56[SPEAKER_03]: And I just have to throw this out there and put this on record because you know I'm like a little will will.
- 1:16:04[SPEAKER_03]: Now I'm a lot will will.
- 1:16:05[SPEAKER_03]: But anyway, so the other night I was
- 1:16:09[SPEAKER_03]: didn't feel good.
- 1:16:10[SPEAKER_03]: I got my COVID chat right and I just kind of fell under the weather.
- 1:16:13[SPEAKER_03]: So, you know, Bob and I are watching Better Call Saul and it's for watching the best the second time.
- 1:16:20[SPEAKER_03]: And anyway, so I'm kind of like nodding off, right?
- 1:16:23[SPEAKER_03]: It's toward the end of the show and I'm it's late at night and I'm tired and I'm just kind of like nodding off.
- 1:16:29[SPEAKER_03]: But I'm not asleep.
- 1:16:30[SPEAKER_03]: I can hear I'm aware.
- 1:16:31[SPEAKER_03]: I'm conscious.
- 1:16:33[SPEAKER_03]: But I'm real drowsy and my eyes are closed and all of a sudden I don't know I don't want to say I heard so I'll just say the number 521 came into my awareness
- 1:16:45[SPEAKER_03]: I don't like what the fuck is that like is that a time is it a date what the fuck I mean and why did I even get it like why did Like I didn't intentionally think that it just popped into my awareness 521 So I'm just throwing it out there because I don't know if something's gonna happen that 521 or on 521 or if that has anything to do with anything I don't know so I just thought that was weird and it happened the other night and then okay This is just my fun thing but have you have you heard of fruit riot
- 1:17:13[SPEAKER_03]: No.
- 1:17:13[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, so evidently, and I haven't had it, but it is- With row fruit at Republicans, right?
- 1:17:19[SPEAKER_03]: What?
- 1:17:20[SPEAKER_03]: Sorry.
- 1:17:20[SPEAKER_03]: It is, it's supposedly, it's like grapes.
- 1:17:23[SPEAKER_03]: It's frozen grapes, and they are, they've got like the sweet and sour covering them, and everyone's freaking out about how good they are.
- 1:17:30[SPEAKER_03]: So on TikTok,
- 1:17:32[SPEAKER_03]: They have the, or you know, TikTok and YouTube.
- 1:17:35[SPEAKER_03]: They have the, make them at home yourself, because evidently they're expensive, whatever.
- 1:17:40[SPEAKER_03]: So I like to watch this guy Andrew Lau, and I love him so much.
- 1:17:44[SPEAKER_03]: He's ridiculous.
- 1:17:46[SPEAKER_03]: He's just, I love him so much, and he does these cooking YouTube things.
- 1:17:50[SPEAKER_03]: And so he did it.
- 1:17:51[SPEAKER_03]: He did like the viral YouTube or TikTok video.
- 1:17:56[SPEAKER_03]: So I use, what do you call them?
- 1:17:59[SPEAKER_03]: Candy, cotton candy grapes.
- 1:18:02[SPEAKER_03]: But you could use any grape, but I prefer cotton candy.
- 1:18:04[SPEAKER_03]: They are expensive, but they're better.
- 1:18:06[SPEAKER_03]: So you just take the grapes, wash them off and everything.
- 1:18:09[SPEAKER_03]: And then I squeeze a whole bunch of lemon juice on them.
- 1:18:12[SPEAKER_03]: And then you can take either whether it's sugar free or not.
- 1:18:15[SPEAKER_03]: I don't care.
- 1:18:16[SPEAKER_03]: Use what you want.
- 1:18:17[SPEAKER_03]: But gelo powder.
- 1:18:19[SPEAKER_03]: And then you just coat the grapes with the powder.
- 1:18:24[SPEAKER_01]: And then you put one of them in the freezer and then they're so fucking good.
- 1:18:29[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
- 1:18:29[SPEAKER_01]: What gelo powder do you like?
- 1:18:31[SPEAKER_01]: I use the strawberry, but I use strawberry.
- 1:18:34[SPEAKER_01]: I knew you were going to say strawberry.
- 1:18:36[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know why, because we're magical.
- 1:18:38[SPEAKER_01]: You and me are.
- 1:18:38[SPEAKER_01]: We're magic people together.
- 1:18:40[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, I'm gonna make those I got to go buy some $14 grapes and make those and you know after I my $93 eggs and you know whatever we're big on the leftovers right now my husband's making like you know he he made Shepherd's pie last night and I looked at he made he you use in his mixture he puts egg yolks in the um
- 1:19:06[SPEAKER_01]: in with mashed potatoes telling you oh god I'm going to go have a piece right now and then I'm looking on the counter and the egg whites are just sitting in a bowl and they've been there for hours and I'm like god damn it we could have used those egg whites for breakfast right but they're rotten now I'm thinking to myself I don't I didn't yell but that's what because I'm paying attention to this stuff and it's a
- 1:19:30[SPEAKER_01]: You know, we're not starving.
- 1:19:31[SPEAKER_01]: We have jobs.
- 1:19:33[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
- 1:19:33[SPEAKER_01]: Now I'm taking it back down into the gutter, but think about the people that those egg whites would have really gone along.
- 1:19:39[SPEAKER_01]: I know.
- 1:19:39[SPEAKER_01]: We got it.
- 1:19:40[SPEAKER_01]: We, okay.
- 1:19:41[SPEAKER_01]: So thank you.
- 1:19:41[SPEAKER_01]: I'm sorry.
- 1:19:42[SPEAKER_01]: I didn't mean to go there again, but it's everything we do.
- 1:19:46[SPEAKER_03]: I know.
- 1:19:46[SPEAKER_00]: Interesting.
- 1:19:47[SPEAKER_00]: We do.
- 1:19:47[SPEAKER_03]: We do.
- 1:19:48[SPEAKER_03]: And those little things, like, I, I sounds dumb, but like, making the little great thing.
- 1:19:53[SPEAKER_03]: It's just, it's, it's a way to give yourself pleasure.
- 1:19:56[SPEAKER_03]: And I think it's really important to find things that make you feel happy.
- 1:20:00[SPEAKER_03]: because you know that that's another way to recharge and you know you don't want them to take away our joy we can't live permanently in fear we can always understand what's going on we can you know understand the importance the urgency the seriousness and all of it but we also have to remember to laugh because one of the things they want to do is they want to steal our joy they want to steal away.
- 1:20:22[SPEAKER_03]: You know, they want us to be fearful, they want us to lay down and it's like that's right that's why Gavin Newsom is doing such a good job because he's using humor and he's mocking them with humor and it's important that we keep our humor and you know and find ways to enjoy ourselves and have fun because if we don't do it if we get rid of if if we
- 1:20:43[SPEAKER_03]: Don't allow ourselves to enjoy things.
- 1:20:46[SPEAKER_03]: Life is going to feel so much more bleak and it's so much more difficult to resist.
- 1:20:50[SPEAKER_03]: So, you know, do what you need to do to laugh and to have a good time and, you know, get your pleasure where you can get it.
- 1:20:58[SPEAKER_03]: And, you know, that's right.
- 1:20:59[SPEAKER_03]: That's what we're going to do is, yeah, hells, yeah.
- 1:21:02[SPEAKER_03]: All right.
- 1:21:03[SPEAKER_03]: Well, as you know, I don't know where you are.
- 1:21:06[SPEAKER_03]: I'm just going to put, I'm going to put your, uh, blue sky, my blue sky is good.
- 1:21:11[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to put your blue sky in the show notes.
- 1:21:14[SPEAKER_03]: Everybody go follow her and Steph, I love you, and we will talk to you.
- 1:21:17[SPEAKER_01]: They love you, and we cannot wait to see you.
- 1:21:20[SPEAKER_01]: And Bob says sky, I know we're going to see each other in about a month.
- 1:21:24[SPEAKER_03]: So F1, yes.
- 1:21:25[SPEAKER_01]: Tell me.

- 1:21:29[SPEAKER_01]: How a beautiful day.
- 1:21:31[SPEAKER_01]: Give your mama my love and Bob and the whole crew.
- 1:21:35[SPEAKER_01]: And I cannot wait to see you.
- 1:21:37[SPEAKER_01]: And thank you for having me.
