Wicked Radio 10-18: Hell Yes We Want Candidates Doing Stand Up! · Wicked Radio with Bill Adams

• 0:04
  Speaker 1: Well, we've got people running for office being stand up
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: comedians these days, and their celebrity endorsers hitting the stage
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: doing some funny. Is that the kind of is that
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: the kind of country we want? Is that the leadership
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: we want? Well the answer to that is hell, yes,
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: that's what we want, because that on a stage live
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: is how you find out what a person is really like.
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: So we'll talk about that.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: Obviously, we'll talk about the Al Smith dinner last night
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: and Elon Muskin Mark Cuban taking the stage for their
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: respective candidates. At some point we're gonna have to do
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: a deep dive and what the hell happened to Mark Cuban.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna make fun of anybody's personal appearance, but
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: why did he start looking like Rachel Maddow?
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: Okay, we'll talk about that a little bit as well
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: as my favorite story of the day coming up in
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Massachusetts restaurants, which I actually am familiar with, believe it
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: or not, is in some hot water because some World
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: War Two re enactors decided to show up in their
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: World War Two era Nazi uniforms.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: You can't fix stupid folks, do you? Think that could
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: have been avoided. But a little bit, just a little
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: bit of common sense, you think.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: Also a fun story coming up in just a couple
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: of minutes too. Apparently we're really really looking forward to
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: Halloween this year, and I have some theories it's because
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: it's awesome.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: All right, let's get to it.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: What kind of crap is the news the headlines brought
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: us today? We can make fun of all fired up
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: for Friday. By the way, next to find a Wicked Radio.
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: My name is Bill Adams, and by the way, programming note,
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: I have it on high authority that if you were
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: to give me a follow at at Wicked bill Adams
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: on Twitter where it lives as a post afterwards, or
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: find Wicked Radio on YouTube, or have a good review
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: and share the podcast version wherever you get your podcasts.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: It's scientifically proven you will be taller and better looking.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: You want to tell you science, No doubt me.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: All right, let's get to it.
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: The Al Smith Dinner is a big deal. Actually, it's traditional.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: The presidential candidates show up. This is always put on
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: by the Catholics in New York City, the arch Diocese
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: up there every candidate, but now two there was one.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: Every candidate running for office has shown up for this thing.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: The only guy that didn't show up previous to last
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: night was Walter Mondale in nineteen eighty four, and he
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: lost every single state but one Minnesota.
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: A harbinger, a prediction of things to come. I don't know.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: I don't think so. But Trump was there and he
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: was good, and I don't know who.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: I need to find out who wrote this because they
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: took shots at everybody, which proves once again we have
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: crossed the boundary. Things are different now. We have politicians
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: who are taking shots at other politicians, swearing on stage.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Trump didn't swear last night.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: But I mean that's a thing happening now, and not
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: afraid while he's there in a panel full of bishops
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: and some of the people he took shots at right
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: by his side, like Chuckie Schumer right by his side.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: I think it's fantastic. It shows what they really are.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's Trump's best form. I mean, he's
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: best like off the cuff. And they finally it took
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: them a little while to figure out how to write
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: for Trump, you know, for the live rallies. I've seen
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: the scripts. I've actually seen what the telepraptery looks like.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: Honest to god, it's bullet point, bulletpoot, bullet point, and
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: then space and then they leave them bullet point. So
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: he wants to get the main points across. But if
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: you like Trump and you enjoy, even if you're not
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: going to vote for him, but you enjoy, like some
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: of the zingers he throws out there, it's the stuff
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: that happens off script, that's great. But this thing's a
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: little bit different. So the Al Smith dinner is not
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: a teleprompter. You got to go off, you know, a script.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: He has to read off that. It's not his best format,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: but man still effective.
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: There's a group called White Dudes for Harris? Have you
• 3:38
  Speaker 3: seen this? White Dudes for Harris? Anybody know? Are some
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: of you hear?
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: White Dudes fan?
• 3:43
  Speaker 3: Doesn't sound like it, But I'm not worried about them
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: at all because their wives and their wives lovers are
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: all voting for me. Every one of those people.
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: Did Trump make a cuck joke? I think he did.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: I think that actually happened. And again you have to
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: see the visual of this. There's a bishop right to
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: his left. It was fantastic, It was great. Also right
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: in the front audience was all the people that he
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: took a shot at. Let's let's go more to Trump.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: I used to think the Democrats were crazy for saying
• 4:15
  Speaker 3: that men have periods. But then I met Tim Wattz.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I like that, big fan, and I don't
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: care if it was even I don't care if it
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: was on the other side of anybody taking shot. I'm fully,
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: fully in favor of this kind of thing. But again,
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: the people in the audience right next to him, who
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: was right there in the front row, Chuckie Schuber, Chuckie Chucky.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: So you know they were going to work in a
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: line about Chucky Schumer in there.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: Of course, Chuck Schumer is here looking very glum. Chuck,
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: it looks clumb But look on the bright side, Chuck,
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: considering how woke your party has become. If Kamala loses,
• 4:57
  Speaker 3: you used to have a chance to become the first
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: woman president.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: The great part about that wasn't he you know the
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: Trump Power movie. Now he's got the shake and he
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: pulls you in and it's he's a wicked This is
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: the white people don't like him. He's you know, he's
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: a wicked power guy. But that's what he is that,
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: you know, that's what he's like. And while he's talking
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: about Chuck Schumer and blasting him, he's shaking him on
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: the shielder and do that little kid thing. He was
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: like this close to rubbing him on the head, a
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: little chucky.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: You're looking glum. You looking glum.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: So that was the That was the Al Smith Dinner
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: last night. Got a lot of views, obviously, but just
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: to be fair and in the name of equal time,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: I will say this, let's go to Kambla Harris. A
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: performance not a bad performance from Horror at the Al
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: Smith Dinner last night. Uh wait, no, oh sorry, she
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: actually wasn't there.
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: No, she decided not to show up.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: Remember I was saying that there was only one candidate
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: before last night, Walter Mondale that didn't show up for
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: this thing, and he lost badly.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: Well now we got two technically. She videoed in. She
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: sent in a video of her performance. How do you
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: think that went? Not too good? Yeah, not too good.
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: She had a I can't remember her name, Molly something,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: I don't know whatever it is. Even in the video
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: phoned in presentation for the Al Smith Dinner. She had
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: to have help in this thing too, with this SNL
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: skit comedian.
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: Very nice to meet you, Mary Catherine. Right now, I'm
• 6:21
  Speaker 4: trying to record my speech for tonight's dinner.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I know.
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: I just want to say that I'm Catholic and tonight
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: is one of the biggest dinners next.
• 6:28
  Speaker 4: To the Last Supper. It is a very important dinner
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: and it's an important tradition that I'm so proud to
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: be a part of.
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: It wasn't there because she would have gotten smoked. There's
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: no teleprompter. She would have to.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: Trump's not too good reading off a printed script either.
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: Granted I totally get that. Can you imagine her doing that?
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: That was how many takes did that thing take?
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: God almighty, edgy?
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: It was so I don't have time to play the
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: whole thing. That was so cringey. And apparently, if you
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: want to take it from the word who people who
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: were actually in the room, there were audible groans after
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: that thing aired. She didn't even you can't show up
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: for that thing?
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: Really? Okay? All right, you know he is showing up now.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: And this is interesting too.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: Also, people taking the stage doing some funny, doing some
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: I don't know, what do you want to call an
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: election season comedy. The Surrey gets the celebrity endorsers for Trump.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: So Elon just shows up in Pennsylvania. He's doing three events.
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: He's just he's just getting up there and he's just talking. Yeah,
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: I'll just talk free. You know, you feel a couple
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: of different things. He was at I think Eastern Pa.
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: Then he's waking his making his way west, I believe,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: And it was free. He just had to sign up
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: online and reserve some tickets or something because he thinks
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: it's he thinks it's that important. Not a lot of
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: comedy of it. But there he gets up completely unscripted
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: and he talked for I believe, it was like over
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: a half hour, signed some hats and all that stuff.
• 7:50
  Speaker 2: Elon live in pets.
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: You know, sensible spending so that we don't have crazy inflation.
• 7:58
  Speaker 4: We want freedom of speech, we want the Constitution to
• 8:01
  Speaker 4: be upheld. And you know, you know what I've been
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: told at times.
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: That these are like right wing values.
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: I'm like, are you insane? There's literally the fundamental values
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: that main America what it is today. Anyone who's against
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: those things is fundamentally anti American, and the hell with them.
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: I was at the crowd too. It's like, I don't
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: want anybody listen. I don't want to hear you.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: I was one of those things. I don't want to
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: hear an actor with your political opinion, a businessman at
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: this and that. Elon's opinion is it's too important not
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: to and I totally get that.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: My opinion is, as long as you're having actors and
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: musicians and writers giving their opinion, then everybody else should
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: do who the hell cares whatever, go ahead and do it,
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: go ahead and cutting loose on stage. I'm totally totally
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: fine with it. It's a different era now, you just
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: do you know this isn't the era of.
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: Force scores and thirty years ago, or we have to
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: fear is fear itself.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: Is No, It's a different audience now. Social media has
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: changed everything.
• 9:06
  Speaker 2: Now. You have to be able to get up on
• 9:07
  Speaker 2: a stage live.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Impromptu. You got to be able to add lib some stuff.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: You have to be able to directly talk to people.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: It's a different era now, and the audience, all of us,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: we all demand it. You have to be able to
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: have that skill. You know, Elon's not the best public speaker.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: He'll tell you that, but you got to be able
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: to do it. Jady Vance is.
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: Really good at it. By the way. Oh and I
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: forgot to talk about this.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: By the way, yesterday, did you happen to catch jd
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: Vance on the road once again in Pennsylvania? And he
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: does this thing where he has reporters and he'll take
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: He's a big crowd, but he'll take questions from reporters.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: And there was somebody from the New York Times. They're
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: asking him about are.
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: You still claiming that twenty twenty was a stolen election?
• 9:48
  Speaker 2: And Jady gets up there and he actually said, and
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: I wish I had the sound for you.
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: Listen, why don't we stop with the bullshit from something
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: from four years ago and concentrate on what's happening now?
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: And I was like, you know what, that's it.
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: If jd Vance is saying bullshit live before an audience
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: on a stage running for office, the game is we've
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: crossed the rubicon. I know Trump has sworn on stage before,
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: He's dropped a couple of F bombs, and I totally
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: get that. You know what, I'm making an executive decision
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: for our little tiny podcast here.
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: That's it.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: I've been held back. I'm gonna swear too, that's it.
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: If he says bullshit, I'm gonna say bullshit, that's it.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: I feel like I feel like I've been unchained.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: This is great.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: I love it because in my training of thirty years
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: on radio, you put one of these in front of me,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: you put a microphone in front of me. It's just
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: it's muscle memory.
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: Just don't swear. Don't swear. Don't swear. In my real life,
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: like out there, I swear like a sailor, probably because
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: at might work for decades, I couldn't actually swear here.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: We're unchained. So bullshit is bullshit and we're gonna call
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: it out. Thank you, jd Vance. We have you to
• 10:49
  Speaker 2: thank for this.
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: And there's a difference too, by the way that you
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: saw perfectly, perfectly clear. On the other celebrity sorrogate, he
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: was on stage doing some yuck yucks.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: Uh was it Pennsylvania?
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: I think it was because that Keystone state is so
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: key Mark Cuban hitting the stage for Kambala Harris, Now,
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: I don't know what got to him. There's been a
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: lot of speculation. Some of my favorite lines I've heard
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: on social media speaking of that, some of the tweets
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: have been, well, somebody got to him, he's being held hostage,
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: the CIA has some dirt on him. I don't think
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: it's that much, but something changed with the guy. And
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to talk about physical appearance.
• 11:23
  Speaker 2: Who am I?
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: Who am I to criticized anybody's physical appearance, But there
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: is something different. I don't know when Mark Cuban decided
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: to go from shark tag Mark Cuban, it started looking
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: like Rachel Maddow. I'm gonna leave it at that, because
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: that's just unfair that we shouldn't have my goal here
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: in to talk about people's personal appearances. God no, but
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: there's something weird about him, and there's something weird about
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: him all of a sudden becoming instead of like the
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: venture capitalist, tech guy, billionaire, he's become the guy that's
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: fully in favor of like more regulation.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: When and how did that change?
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: Maybe he's like maybe he's angling for a position in
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: a potential Kamala Harris administration. Maybe and he probably figures
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: he's got no shot with Trump, so he's not gonna
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: do that because they fought before. Or maybe he's got
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: some sort of a big tech deal that he needs
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: the approval from a future SEC or FCC. I don't
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: know what the hell is with the guy, but he's
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: up there stumping for Harris, and I don't know if
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: this is the smartest strategy, even if Harris does win,
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: God forbid. But he's taken a lot of shots at
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: Trump like this. Now he has this crazy, crazy, crazy
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: notion that putting a tariff of sixty percent on every
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: single product imported from China.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: Is a good idea.
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: Let me just tell you, this man has so little
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: understanding of Terris.
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: He thinks that China pays for them. This is the
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: same guy who also thought that Mexico would pay for
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: the wall, so there's no US. Oh that wasn't good.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: I'm trying to be completely objective about this, but that
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: wasn't good. And that's the difference you see of a
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: TV guy. So Elon will tell you he's not the
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: best speaker, but let's compare billionaires. Elon gets up there. Hey,
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: he's just talking, you know, he's just just relating to people.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: He's just talking one on one sign and hats Mark Cuban.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: If you saw this, he actually read that line. It's
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: not that tough to remember off his phone. He's like
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: reading like this and looking back at it. That's a
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: scripted TV guy. I can tell you from being in
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: radio where we have to like be impromptu, and he
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: can't work off a script. You can't work off Q
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: cards or a teleprompter, and you got to be able
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: to handle things. I've seen TV people like Mark Cuban
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: in action. They're lost of that teleprompter. They're absolutely lost
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: or a script. It's just something something about television beats
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: it out of them.
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: I don't know what. I don't know how, I don't
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: know why. Some of them are great. Not him. That's
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: not good. It just it did.
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: It says something weird going on with him. I don't
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: know what it is, but there it is. So you
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: got the billionaire versus billionaire. Where it goes, I don't.
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: Know, but I'm fully in favor of these people tickets
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: with shots at each other. It's great for us. It's
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: great for us to be able to laugh at it.
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: Thank you JD for swearing on stage. I love it
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: all right, here's my favorite story of the day. You
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: can't fix stupid. You just can't.
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: And it's proven once again. Actually it's proven every single day.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: Let's go to Hudson, Massachusetts for this one, a town
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: I know very very well. I'm in Hudson at least
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: once a year for the past thirty years because my
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: relatives lived there, and I actually have driven by. I've
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: never been at this restaurant. It's called the Kith and Kin. Well,
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: they got in some trouble, no fault to their own,
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: because they had some World War II reenactors show up
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: for lunch one day last Saturday. They're wrong with that, right?
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: What's wrong with that? They were coming from the American
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: Heritage Museum and they were taking a lunch break, you
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: know World War two reenactors. Well, a couple of the
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: reenactors they're not Nazis. They were just playing World War
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: two era Nazis.
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: Is the problem.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: They decided to go to lunch at the Kith and
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: Kin restaurant in their World War two era Nazi uniforms.
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: How you think that's gonna go? You absolute dipshits?
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: You think of this? Would have? You think this would
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: have been.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: Solved with just not a lot, not a lot, just
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: a little bit of common sense, just a couple of
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: drops of common sense, like now the restaurant is in trouble.
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: They've had they had to close their doors actually because
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: because if people were mad at him and they were
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: getting threats and they had to apologize on their Facebook page.
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: Here's how this could have been avoided.
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: You know, a couple of a couple of the World
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: War twore reenactors could have said, all right, well, this
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: place looks good, let's get some lunch. Hey, Bob, you
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: think we should take off the Nazi jacket before and
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: the you know, the emblems before we go into the restaurant.
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: No, I think we're good.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: Nah. I think that people in central Massachusetts will love that.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: I think we're fine. Or how about this, Is there
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: like a greeter or a manager at this place that
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: might have said, hey, idiots, can you're welcome here?
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: Can you just take off the Nazi stuff and then
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: just put it back on in the parking lot when
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: you get in the car. Do you think it so avoidable?
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: Just a little common sense you can't fix stupid, You
• 15:58
  Speaker 2: just can't. All right, looking forward to Halloween, apparently we
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: all are. Here's some light fluffy stuff for the weekend.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: Survey says, you know, I love my sociological surveys. I
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: love them.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: And this is from civic science, something called civic science.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: That sounds like some light reading for the beach. It's
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: a brand new statistic. I don't know who they survey.
• 16:17
  Speaker 2: I don't know. I have you ever been called on
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: a survey? By the way they say twenty three percent
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: of the people they talk to, they probably only talked
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: to ten people. But that's okay. Are looking forward to
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: Halloween way more this year? Sounds about right, Actually.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: Just anecdotally, when you talk to people, talk to people
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: around you, more people are of Halloween this year. I
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: think it makes sense number one, because it's freaking awesome.
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: And number two, it's escapism. All this stuff and all
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: is and I get it. I know, and I talk.
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: I try to make fun of the politics, but I
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: get where they were surrounded by in an election year.
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: I totally understand that.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: But we're surrounded by it, right, It's like NonStop. That's
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: why I try to make fun of the bullshit in
• 16:52
  Speaker 1: the headlines. Here's our word again. But people want an escape.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: And I remember back in the dark days when I
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: went to call, I had a social psychology professor that
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: went into this discussion about why like horror movies and
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: like you know, gore and fangoria stuff is so.
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: Popular in Japan.
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: And he said it's because when they go through rebuilding
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: and after World War Two they were a mess. Whenever
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: you have dark times there, or in the depression or
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: during recessions or election cycles here, horror and Halloween type
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: stuff and you know, dark themes but funny are more popular,
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: So that makes sense. None of this surprises me. Twenty
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: three percent more people are more into Halloween this year totally.
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: I hope that means we'd get more tricker treaters. By
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: the way, there's another tip for you, and I learned this.
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: I haven't always followed my own rule, but I learned this.
