- 0:28Speaker 1: You know, I actually saw so. I watched the Saturday
- 0:31Speaker 1: Night Live Open and at first it was annoying to me.
- 0:34Speaker 4: Yes, uh huh.
- 0:34Speaker 1: At first, I'm like, are they really coming out and
- 0:37Speaker 1: just lamenting how the left completely lost this election? They're
- 0:40Speaker 1: gonna be like they're sad that Donald Trump won. And
- 0:43Speaker 1: then they started playing this game of we were always
- 0:46Speaker 1: on your side as the president. We love you, You're great.
- 0:49Speaker 1: That was actually pretty funny. They're like, oh, Donald Trump's
- 0:51Speaker 1: gonna punish his political enemies. It's not us, maybe Michael Ja,
- 0:56Speaker 1: but not me. Right, that was actually pretty funny. What
- 0:59Speaker 1: do you guys think?
- 1:00Speaker 4: Well, you know, they did have it.
- 1:02Speaker 3: Well, I go ahead, kay, Well, I feel like they
- 1:07Speaker 3: pretty much got us to a point where the political
- 1:09Speaker 3: correctness has ruined it almost ruined our culture. We stopped laughing. Yes,
- 1:15Speaker 3: we were crying, we were living constantly. Yes, everybody was
- 1:20Speaker 3: offended by everything. Everything we used to laugh at and
- 1:24Speaker 3: enjoy together were sacrificed at that altar of wokeness. And
- 1:28Speaker 3: now I'm hearing laughter again. I feel like, I don't
- 1:32Speaker 3: know if y'all feel this, but it feels like we're
- 1:35Speaker 3: coming back. We're coming up for breath. People are laughing again,
- 1:39Speaker 3: people are talking again, people are looking at that time
- 1:42Speaker 3: period being can you believe we just went through that?
- 1:45Speaker 3: Can you believe we just survived that? And it feels like,
- 1:48Speaker 3: oh gosh, are we back? Yes, like we're back.
- 1:51Speaker 4: It does, It absolutely does. It's one of those things
- 1:53Speaker 4: too that you know. I was watching something on YouTube today.
- 1:57Speaker 4: You know, the guy kill Tony. He made the he
- 2:00Speaker 4: made the joke you know, at the rally that got
- 2:03Speaker 4: him in so much trouble Madison Square Garden.
- 2:05Speaker 1: He was the one who said that there's a floating
- 2:08Speaker 1: pilot trash outed Puerto Rico.
- 2:10Speaker 4: Well, he finally opened up, he finally came out of
- 2:14Speaker 4: the shadows and he said, basically, I don't apologize for anything.
- 2:18Speaker 4: I don't apologize to the Puerto Ricans. I don't apologize
- 2:21Speaker 4: to the blacks to the whites or to my mama
- 2:23Speaker 4: who I made fun of. This is comedy, this is
- 2:26Speaker 4: who I am, this is you know. I go hard,
- 2:28Speaker 4: and I think it's kind of a relief to be
- 2:29Speaker 4: able to laugh again. We were so afraid to laugh
- 2:32Speaker 4: because we were so afraid of being canceled if we
- 2:33Speaker 4: did laugh at the wrong thing. But now we said
- 2:36Speaker 4: for a long long time, the comedians are going to
- 2:39Speaker 4: be the ones to bring us back around. And the
- 2:41Speaker 4: ones that stood strong and stayed firm and they were
- 2:44Speaker 4: able to continue to laugh and help us to laugh
- 2:47Speaker 4: about things. They are standing very tall right now. It
- 2:50Speaker 4: is so nice to be able to laugh about the things,
- 2:53Speaker 4: even about ourselves.
- 2:57Speaker 3: I feel the same way. I feel pumped about it.
- 3:00Speaker 3: I feel light lighter, I feel happier, and I feel
- 3:02Speaker 3: like even those people on the left that are in
- 3:05Speaker 3: the midst of just their misery are going to laugh too.
- 3:08Speaker 3: And they're not going to be able to to pinant
- 3:10Speaker 3: on what's happening right now, but they're definitely going to
- 3:13Speaker 3: start feeling better and feeling freer to laugh themselves.
- 3:16Speaker 1: They're going to have to stop shaving their heads.
- 3:18Speaker 3: Though.
- 3:19Speaker 1: I mean, there is a lot of there is a
- 3:21Speaker 1: lot of panic. There is a lot of fear. There's
- 3:24Speaker 1: a lot of self abuse going on on the left.
- 3:29Speaker 4: That's actually tragic that it is, isn't it. You know,
- 3:32Speaker 4: this is this is what's going to happen. So right
- 3:34Speaker 4: now I look at these people and I feel sad.
- 3:37Speaker 4: I feel sorry for them. There's some sort of mental
- 3:40Speaker 4: disconnect right now, the harming them. Yes, they have bought
- 3:44Speaker 4: into the lives.
- 3:45Speaker 1: They've bought them to the lie that Donald Trump's a
- 3:47Speaker 1: fascists and are Nazi and he's going to put people
- 3:49Speaker 1: in concentration camps. That's where their fear is coming from.
- 3:51Speaker 4: Guess what, one day, we'll we'll even be able to
- 3:54Speaker 4: laugh about that. Hopefully they'll get to the point where
- 3:57Speaker 4: they've evolved and they'll be able to laugh and say,
- 3:59Speaker 4: I'll offs my mind, but it is. It's a true
- 4:02Speaker 4: tell tale of somebody that's gone over the edge. But
- 4:06Speaker 4: I do feel like that people are going to joke
- 4:08Speaker 4: at their I mean they already are. You see Meg
- 4:10Speaker 4: and Kelly. You see people that are showing these scenes
- 4:13Speaker 4: on their show and they're scream These people are screaming
- 4:15Speaker 4: in their cars.
- 4:17Speaker 3: You know why.
- 4:18Speaker 4: There's this one that I saw and you had a
- 4:21Speaker 4: split screen. You've seen this, and the girl is screaming.
- 4:23Speaker 4: She's like, why, why why do y'all hate us?
- 4:26Speaker 3: Why?
- 4:27Speaker 4: Well, then you've got this guitarist and the split screen,
- 4:29Speaker 4: and he's like and he's like listening, and he goes, yeah,
- 4:32Speaker 4: he starts playing this banger and it goes with her screaming,
- 4:36Speaker 4: and it's like a hit.
- 4:38Speaker 3: You know.
- 4:38Speaker 4: It's one of those things. So even now people are
- 4:41Speaker 4: able to take something that's tragic and they're able to
- 4:45Speaker 4: use humor because you're able to laugh about it because
- 4:49Speaker 4: it does Cumula, You're so right. It feels like we
- 4:51Speaker 4: can laugh again, and that is such a glorious feeling
- 4:54Speaker 4: because we were so nervous about saying the wrong thing.
- 4:57Speaker 4: You know, they have people that have said, uh, like
- 5:01Speaker 4: who Even Ben Affleck has come out and he's talked
- 5:03Speaker 4: about the cancel culture in Hollywood and he's going hard
- 5:08Speaker 4: against it. They're so he said, look, we're so afraid
- 5:11Speaker 4: to say the wrong thing, and then we'll be canceled.
- 5:13Speaker 4: You know, we won't be able to work again. Right,
- 5:16Speaker 4: you know, because that's happened for four freaking years to
- 5:18Speaker 4: the conservative actors. Well, now they're starting to sity you know,
- 5:22Speaker 4: and it kind of feels good. And honestly, I know
- 5:24Speaker 4: this is kind of off subject, but we have a
- 5:25Speaker 4: couple of seconds left. I want to say this.
- 5:28Speaker 2: There.
- 5:28Speaker 4: Somebody made the point that all of the places that
- 5:31Speaker 4: had no voter ID, they went blue. Everywhere else in
- 5:35Speaker 4: our country went red if you had to have a
- 5:37Speaker 4: photo ID. They're making fun of that. They're kind of
- 5:39Speaker 4: wink wink, okay, okay. So so she won where there
- 5:44Speaker 4: was no voter ID, she won. So you know, even
- 5:47Speaker 4: they're able to joke about that one. Four years ago,
- 5:49Speaker 4: we couldn't even say that the thing was stolen or
- 5:52Speaker 4: we would get fined or whatever.
