  Speaker 1: You're list Saints K.
• 0:01
  Speaker 2: I am six forty. The Bill handles show on demand
• 0:05
  Speaker 2: on the iHeartRadio app to.
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: The Trump Trump in the School the club TU, we
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: don't get no job.
• 0:12
  Speaker 3: I am six forty Bill Handle here. It is a
• 0:17
  Speaker 3: Tuesday morning, August twenty five. As we continue on with
• 0:21
  Speaker 3: the show, and a big, big decision came down yesterday,
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: and the court went in a way that I wasn't
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: particularly thrilled with, but understandable what it did.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: It was a divided court.
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: It was the three Liberals voting one way, the sixth
• 0:36
  Speaker 3: Conservatives voting the other way, and it allowed the Trump
• 0:40
  Speaker 3: administration to move forward with plans to restrict mail in
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: voting before the midterms. The President is not shy about
• 0:50
  Speaker 3: his position that mail in voting should be straight out
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: not allowed. Doesn't like it, doesn't believe in it. I
• 0:58
  Speaker 3: think a lot of that is political because mail in
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: voting tends to run Democrat, and if you get rid
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: of mail in voting, fewer Democrats will vote, therefore giving
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: advantage to Republicans who tend to vote.
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: Day of.
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: That's my take on it, and I'm not alone on this.
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: So the emergency opinion, this was an emergency order. The
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: Justice has said that the President could proceed with implementing
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: his executive order directing the US Postal Service to help
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: decide which voters should receive mail in ballots, giving the
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: Postal Service that power because the Postal Service controls mailing.
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: And here is the argument, and this is a temporary order,
• 1:42
  Speaker 3: by the way, and the legality of this has not
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: been decided. It's just allowing for this two week sojourn.
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: And that is going to be the definition of the Constitution,
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: which says the states control balloting, States control how people vote. However,
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: Postal Service controls how mail works. And the Court's going
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: to determine how far into the Constitution the Court is
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: willing to go in terms of allowing the states to
• 2:11
  Speaker 3: basically make all the rules, or does the President have
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: the ability to decide what's going on with the Postal
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: Service executive branch and in terms of mail in balloting.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: It's going to be an interesting fight, to say the least.
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: But right now, the Supreme Court said, okay, the order
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: that has been decided by the lower courts stopping the
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: administration from going forward with these lists what they basically
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: are our lists of voters who are legal, who are
• 2:44
  Speaker 3: not legal, and then that is sent to the states
• 2:47
  Speaker 3: to do what they want with it. So this is
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: what the administration is saying. We're not stopping people from voting.
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: We're simply preparing these lists so the states know who
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: is on the list of registered voters who are legal
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: and therefore should not be allowed to vote. And his
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: argument was that there is massive fraud with melee in voting.
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: No evidence that there is, by the way, But then again,
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: a lot of these accusations are made about how many
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: illegal AA, how many illegal undocumented people, rape people, huge number,
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: how most of them are criminal. We're talking about the
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: illegal aliens. Most are criminal. Where's the evidence? And the
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: same thing goes here. So it's really going to be
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: a fight as to whether or not the postal service
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: is going to prevail I either president or the state's determination.
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: Now the fight is with California as always, and here's why.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: California.
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: Eighty percent of the voters do it by mail in
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: balloty eighty percent. And if mail in balloting is removed
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: or curtailed, that means fewer Democrats are going to vote.
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: And all of a sudden, maybe California is not going
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: to be so blue. Maybe it'll turn a little bit purple.
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: And in states where the majority of voters do not
• 4:11
  Speaker 3: use mail in balloting, then the Republicans are basically in
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: the same shape. So it all breaks down to a
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: political fight. It's that simple. And does the President really
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: believe that there is that much massive fraud going on?
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: I don't know.
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: You know, I've never tried to really understand where I've
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: attempted to, but really don't understand the president where his
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: political beliefs start and where his true beliefs are. For example,
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: I do believe that he is afraid of and is
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: against immigrants coming into this country. Politics are not. He
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: just does not like immigrants, that's a given. I do
• 4:55
  Speaker 3: believe he does not like social programs, titlement programs, notwithstanding
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: whether the states allow it don't allow it. I don't
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: think he likes them. I think he likes big business.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: That's it. On any level. He likes big business.
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: And so again, where's the line of politics and where
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: does it go into his belief system? And in his case, boy,
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: those lines are blurred big time. So for right now,
• 5:24
  Speaker 3: the court is saying to the President, Okay, your executive
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: order is in place, we're going to we're going to
• 5:33
  Speaker 3: dismiss the.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Orders that stop it go forward.
• 5:36
  Speaker 3: But we'll see what the legalities of it, whether it's
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: constitutional or not or not, and we'll be probably hearing
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: another decision in the next couple of weeks. And the court,
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: this court has been pretty much in favor of presidential power,
• 5:51
  Speaker 3: and the courts can go anyway they want. I mean,
• 5:53
  Speaker 3: keep in mind, for example, separation of church and state,
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: the court took it to a extreme, and the right
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: to own guns, the court has taken that to an
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: extreme in favor of gun owners. And the separation of
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: church and state has been taken to an extreme level
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: for those that argue religion anti religion, if you will,
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: dealing with the schools, or dealing with the governmental agencies,
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: orment governmental property, or governmental policy. So I think this
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: court is probably the best court that the president could
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: ever have. But then again, he chose three justices. Very
• 6:32
  Speaker 3: few presidents get three justices ever. Okay, a story in
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: The Atlantic which brought back memories which I haven't thought
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: about in a very long time, and it's a story
• 6:43
  Speaker 3: about America's public pools municipal pools, which in my life
• 6:49
  Speaker 3: was a big deal because you know, I came from
• 6:51
  Speaker 3: a middle class family and I wasn't sent to camp
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: or anything, and both my parents worked, so it was
• 6:58
  Speaker 3: during the summer. Going to to the city pool was
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: a big deal for us. And I can still remember
• 7:05
  Speaker 3: every lifeguard saying walk, walk, don't run. I mean, that
• 7:09
  Speaker 3: was the phrase that was used constantly. It's all you heard.
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: And the point was public schools. Public pools were just terrific.
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: A lot of kids going, and there's some really neat ones.
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: I remember the one in Burbank. I don't know if
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: it's still there at the Burbank Pools, a big, huge
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: round pool with the island in the middle, and it
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: was just terrific. And then nor Walk we used to
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: go to because they had the big diving platforms. I
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: remember every pool and it was a very big deal.
• 7:38
  Speaker 3: Well those are on the decline. I don't even know
• 7:40
  Speaker 3: if that public pool exists in Burbank anymore. Anyway, public
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: pools are kind of interesting because there is a history
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: of public pools. They are especially now that he wave
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: of heat waves more so than ever before.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: You would think that more and.
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: More public school public pools would be opening they're closing,
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: and a couple of things about public pools interesting history.
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: First of all, to keep public pools open is a
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: lot of money, and that's the last thing that politicians
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: want to do, because this is the question of maintenance.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: And when you talk about they can't maintain city streets
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: and city lights and buckling sidewalks, there's what's more important.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: Potholes.
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: Well, those are certainly a lot more important to people
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: than public pools. So public pools are at the sort
• 8:29
  Speaker 3: of far end of the list in terms of maintenance,
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: so they're closing down. Also, the history of public pools
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: is fascinating. When you talk about the history of desegregation
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: and race relations in this country, there was always separation,
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: of course, historically of whites and quote colored people, because
• 8:50
  Speaker 3: that was the way they refer to in terms of
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: the signs of colored only or color entry. Public pools
• 8:58
  Speaker 3: were at the forefront because this is for those people
• 9:03
  Speaker 3: that were out and out racists.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: It was more of it was more of a detriment.
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: It was more painful to have their kids swimming with
• 9:16
  Speaker 3: African American kids because they could touch them.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: They're in the same water.
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: And what a lot of cities did is just during
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: the time of desegregation, is just shut down their pools.
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: We would rather have no pool than allow our kids
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: to swim in the same water as these colored kids.
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: And interesting history because that was sort of the forefront
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: of the anti desegregation movement. Public pools just became the
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: end all be all of that particular movement. You see,
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: having boys and girls go to the same restroom is
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: well as uncomfortable as that is, right, because that was
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: the mantra of the racism the public schools. Man, that
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: was just a bridge too far. So we come from
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: the history of that to now and that's gone for
• 10:17
  Speaker 3: the most part, thank goodness, it's actually gone except for
• 10:20
  Speaker 3: a couple of crazy people. But you have the issue
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: of just the money to pay for public schools. And
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: I remember how important it was for me as a
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: kid to go to a public public pool. I mean
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: they were terrific, they were big, and they had showers,
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: I mean all of it. Neil used to go they
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: used to do the same thing, go to public pools. Absolutely.
• 10:42
  Speaker 4: So what they did in our area is Newberry Park
• 10:45
  Speaker 4: High School that had you know, a bunch of pools
• 10:49
  Speaker 4: would open up during the summer and I remember being
• 10:52
  Speaker 4: very small and my mom bringing my younger brother and
• 10:55
  Speaker 4: I there, and my brother and me there, and you know,
• 11:01
  Speaker 4: just floating around with her holding us on each hip.
• 11:05
  Speaker 4: And it was, you know, it was a seasonal thing.
• 11:08
  Speaker 4: We were always doing that, and you see friends from
• 11:11
  Speaker 4: school and neighbors and all that stuff.
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: I'm trying to remember whether they were free or not,
• 11:17
  Speaker 3: or whether it was so minimal.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: I remember it was minimal. Maybe a buck or two.
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, now I didn't that I think when in my
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: day it was maybe a quarter to get into the pools.
• 11:27
  Speaker 3: And the pools I went to were not high school pools.
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: These were public pools, that's all. They were standalone, maintained
• 11:34
  Speaker 3: by the city, not connected to anything other than the
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: city itself. You know, it's a public pool. And I'm
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: wondering if that public pool is still available in Burbank.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: I've got to look that up, because that was just
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: the neatest and it was round with us. Yeah, it
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: was a huge round of pool. I mean it was massive,
• 11:53
  Speaker 3: and there was the island in the middle where you
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: could swim to and it was deep water near the islands,
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: so around the edges it was you know, three foot
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: deep two foot deep and various places for the little ones,
• 12:07
  Speaker 3: and then they had the deep water part.
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: There wasn't much diving there.
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: I remember Norwalk having the big the diving boards and
• 12:16
  Speaker 3: the big platforms where you could dive. I think that
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: must have been Olympic size or had it had to
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: do with some kind of Olympic type organization, because they
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: I think they had the three meter they had idem had,
• 12:29
  Speaker 3: but maybe even a ten meter where you could jump
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: off of.
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna look it up anyway.
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: The verdu Goo Aquatic That was it, the vert Yes,
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: that was it now that I remember verd Goo Aquatic
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: Center and is it still there?
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah? Do you have a picture of it?
• 12:46
  Speaker 4: I'm looking to see the pool you're talking about. They
• 12:50
  Speaker 4: do have a website.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: Do do't D? Don't D don't do interesting?
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't see that particular pool, but okay, let's
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: see there's pictures. Yeah, there's a whole play area there,
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: swim and activity pools.
• 13:06
  Speaker 3: Yeah, there was just this I thought, the best pool
• 13:09
  Speaker 3: that I've ever seen. All Right, we're done with that, guys. Okay,
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: interesting fight if you will, between the president the food
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: industry and Robert Kennedy. Okay, the FEDS were set to
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: publish a definition of ultra processed foods this month.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: What is an ultra processed food?
• 13:31
  Speaker 3: Because there is no standardized definition and you can't regulate
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: ultra processed foods if you don't have a definition of.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: Ultra processed foods.
• 13:42
  Speaker 3: And we're talking ice cream, soda, cookies, costco, burritos, et cetera. Now,
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: ultra processed food make up about or make more more
• 13:52
  Speaker 3: than half of our diets and our link to type
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: two diabetes, heart disease, dementia, and it goes on and on.
• 13:58
  Speaker 3: So a federal definite could create, would create a foundation
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: that would you know, help Americans with their diets. That
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: is the plan, that is the policy hopefully and it would.
• 14:13
  Speaker 3: I mean no one seems to doubt that. And releasing
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: the new definition federal definition would be a major win
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: for OURFK Junior is make American Healthy Again movement again. Okay,
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: a lot of Americans have applauded this move, whether or
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: not they agree with RFK Junior on his other stuff,
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: which you know, some of his stuff are downright crazy vaccines,
• 14:36
  Speaker 3: et cetera.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: So the expected day comes.
• 14:40
  Speaker 3: We're expecting the definition to be released but guess what
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: that day, which was just a couple of weeks ago,
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: the government announced instead it was sending all of this
• 14:51
  Speaker 3: to the Office of Management and Budget for review, which
• 14:56
  Speaker 3: can happen. It's either the last step before public policy
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: is introduced, or it can be stalled indefinitely. And guess what,
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: it's going to be stalled indefinitely. If you're looking at
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: the history of the industry, the food industry and its
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: connection to the government, looks like the food industry was
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: behind this change of plans. Bloomberg News reported that major
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: food company executives went to the White House argue to
• 15:25
  Speaker 3: the President, releasing a definition of ultra processed foods would
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: confuse customers and increased grocery costs. If you define what
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: ultra processed food is, it would confuse the customer.
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: Right maybe what now? We don't know.
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: Consumer Brands Association, the top lobbying group for the industry, said,
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: we are confident that this definition won't move forward once
• 15:53
  Speaker 3: the President is made aware of it and the disastrous
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: consequences it will have on is affordability agenda.
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: There we go, and the food industry.
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: Was able to stop these regulations from being published.
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: We don't even know what they are.
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: We know that Department of Agriculture was about the issue
• 16:11
  Speaker 3: tougher rules to produce salmonella contamination in raw poultry, but
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: that industry, the meat industry, asked the President to withdraw
• 16:20
  Speaker 3: that proposal because it would raise food prices.
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: Guess what the USDA did yep.
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: And this is a real interesting tension between the agencies,
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: Kennedy's Maha agenda, the President who favors industry deregulation.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: So what is going to happen?
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: Well, let me tell you why the food companies have
• 16:48
  Speaker 3: succeeded so far. They have a lobby to block states
• 16:53
  Speaker 3: from creating their own definitions of ultra processed food, saying
• 16:56
  Speaker 3: that it was confuse everybody. You have different definitions in
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: different states. What the industry wants is a national standard,
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: except they're fighting the national standard. Their argument is a
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: national standard is something that everybody could agree on. But
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: they have filed that you're ready for this, Lighthouse reports.
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: Since twenty ten, food companies have filed two hundred and
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: thirty nine lawsuits in six countries against policies like front
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: of package labeling restrictions on junk food marketing to children,
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: that industry over the past twenty three years has spent
• 17:38
  Speaker 3: over a billion dollars in federal lobbying. That's more than tobacco,
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: that's more than alcohol, that's more than gambling, and has
• 17:46
  Speaker 3: donated to both sides of the aisle major.
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: Money for campaigns.
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: What do you think, I tell you, big food or
• 17:58
  Speaker 3: big tobacco goes at it.
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: The government was able to win against big tobacco. Gambling
• 18:03
  Speaker 3: is still wide open, and we'll see what the regulations
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: are there, because that's fairly new. But food, big food
• 18:10
  Speaker 3: saying you know what, you really don't want a definition
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: of ultra process foods because that is so confusing to you. Yeah,
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: all right, why not? And they're winning. They're winning very
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: smart people, lots of lawyers, good trade association. You put
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: all that together, and they're going to help the consumer.
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: Remember big tobacco, Big pharma that argued a couple of
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: years ago that higher prices are actually good for consumers
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: for drugs, that lower prices actually are bad for people.
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: They actually sat and argued that for real. I mean,
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: how do you I don't even know where.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: To go on that.
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: Okay, moving on to something that is near and dear
• 18:59
  Speaker 3: to my heart, and that is getting high, you know,
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: just basically getting ripped, you know, smoking a joint, getting
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: a toke, you know, smoking a blunt. You knows that's true.
• 19:12
  Speaker 3: Thanks Lindsey. Smoking some grass, boy, does that show.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: My age right?
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: Buying a lid, getting some weed, all of that. Baby
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: boomers are the biggest growing or the biggest group that
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: is growing for smoking pot. And I think a lot
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: of it because we go back to our pot days.
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: One thing about baby boomers is at some point we
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: all smoke pot.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: I did. I don't.
• 19:39
  Speaker 3: I'm a baby boomer does not smoke pot. I mean
• 19:41
  Speaker 3: now my go to drug is diet coke. But there
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: is a huge uptick of boomers. There are lawsuits that
• 19:51
  Speaker 3: are going on by neighbors of boomers that are saying
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: all we smell is cannabis all day long.
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: And there have been a couple of wins too.
• 20:02
  Speaker 3: Normally, you would say, hey, what I do in my
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: house is my business, and that is certainly what the
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: law says. But the neighbors have argued, you smoking that
• 20:12
  Speaker 3: much pot ruins our ability to have a healthy, wonderful
• 20:18
  Speaker 3: life without you intruding. And the courts have said, yeah,
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: you're right, and so they have curtailed some pot smoking.
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: But the bottom line is that baby boomers are smoking
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: pot like crazy.
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: A lot of medicinal use of pot is out there,
• 20:37
  Speaker 3: we know early on glaucoma and cancer patients can get
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: part of their appetite back where. There is a lot
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: of healthful aspects of pot.
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: But the most part, everybody just does it to get high.
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: That's just that simple.
• 20:52
  Speaker 3: And I know we're all going to say we don't
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: smoke pot here. I don't, and you believe that, Neil,
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: I don't think does.
• 21:01
  Speaker 5: I've smoked pot three times my whole whole life all
• 21:04
  Speaker 5: and you didn't Inhale, I know, no, all before I
• 21:06
  Speaker 5: was seventeen. Will I mean I didn't ask you about
• 21:09
  Speaker 5: your young life and smoking pot?
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: Did you do you? I did maybe when I was younger, Yeah,
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: a lot.
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: No, No, just down then oh, okay, I do appreciate
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: it gummy now.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: And then okay, fair enough.
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Lindsay smoked Lindsey's gummies all the time, but then
• 21:26
  Speaker 3: that's a lot to do with pain for her.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: Amy. Pot smoking in your youth.
• 21:31
  Speaker 6: In my youth, and I remember the last time I
• 21:34
  Speaker 6: did it. It was I was like twenty four and
• 21:37
  Speaker 6: I was in the mountains of Colorado.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: And you started chewing on tree bark because the munchies
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: are very strong.
• 21:48
  Speaker 6: No, but I will tell you that we were camping
• 21:50
  Speaker 6: and I had like five s'mores, and boy was that
• 21:54
  Speaker 6: sky beautiful with the stars.
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: No kidding.
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: I remember the first time I ever smoked pot and
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: I was hungry. I was at a friend's house and
• 22:02
  Speaker 3: I've shared this story, and I put some English muffins
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: in the toaster and burnt them, but I was so
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: hungry I ate them anyway. God, those are the best
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: tasting English muffins, I mean completely burnt. And the next
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: week I went back and we smoked a pot again
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: and put more English muffins in the toaster.
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: And you want to know something, even when.
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: You're high, properly toasted English muffins taste better than ones
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: that are totally burnt. And that was the discovery I
• 22:33
  Speaker 3: made the week after I smoke pot for the first time.
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: Very deep. Yeah.
• 22:38
  Speaker 3: In the meantime, those are the days that I would
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: put anything into my mouth. I was a garbage can.
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: Whatever you threw in there, I would do. There is
• 22:49
  Speaker 3: I don't think there are a drug in the world
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: that I haven't put into my face.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: Okay, but I've known that. You know, we've talked about that.
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: All right, We're done with that. Fair enough.
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: Coming up, what are we gonna do? Oh Rich on Tech?
• 23:03
