Knallstart for Jakob i Pampers buksebleie i det han tar ledelsen over Maja som har fått lekkasje.
Emil er utrolig rask, men begynner å gråte fordi det gnager.
Og det er Jakob, sju måneder gammel, i Pampers buksebleie som tar seieren på ti meter kryping.
Genialt valget Jakob å bruke Pampers mest absorberende buksebleie noensinne for en thriller.

PENGALAXYLK
you You The Adventures in Hell World podcast talks in-depth about QAnon.
While it's meant to be comedic and formative, sometimes we have to get into things like child abuse and violence against people.
Listener discretion advised.
Hello, everybody.
This is Mike Reigns, a.k.a.
Poker and Politics.
El Lobo Solo this week.
Scheduling conflicts.
You know how it is.
Four people doing a pod.
It's tough.
It's tough.
So I'm going to do a quick pod today.
Little in, little out.
And I'm going to do a podcast.
We are going to do part two on the George Floyd thing next week.
I was looking to do more research about it.
Haley was looking to do more research on it.
And the main thing I was trying to do is I was watching the trial.
I was watching the autopsy doctor.
Discussing the autopsy of George Floyd, because this is one of the big right-wing to-dos, is that his original report or whatever said that it was fentanyl, it wasn't the knee on the neck.
I watched his testimony, and it was interesting because I'm a Massachusettsian.
And we here in the beloved Commonwealth are neck deep in Karen Reed drama.
The one witness in the Karen Reed trial was being crossed for days on end and just relentless.
And when I finally found the autopsy, the doctor that performed the autopsy of George Floyd, And I looked at his testimony.
It was two hours long.
And I was like, well, that's probably the direct.
And then the cross is after that.
Nope.
The direct, the cross, and the redirect were all done in two hours.
And I was just kind of like, holy smokes, this is wild.
And it was really kind of boring.
It was mostly just on direct.
They just said, so...
He died because of the knee on his neck?
And the doctor was like, yeah, basically.
And then on cross, they were like, well, he had a lot of health problems, didn't he?
And the doctor was like, yeah.
And then they said, and he had a lot of fentanyl in his system, didn't he?
And the doctor was like, yeah.
And they just said, those are bad.
He could have died from that.
And the doctor was like, ah, not really, but they were.
There were things that could lead to death, I guess.
And then the defense sat back down, and then on redirect, basically, the prosecuting attorney asked him, you still think the knee on the neck killed him, right?
And the doctor was like, yeah.
And then the prosecutor was like, we're done.
And that was it.
And it was really, it was just...
So kind of by the book and procedural and not a lot of big impact.
And I listened to a bunch of recaps because this was live and a bunch of recaps.
And most of the recaps were like, yeah, the defense got a lot of points across there about all the other problems that Floyd had.
So good on them.
And also strong marks for the prosecutor.
They're like, that redirect was sharp and concise and got exactly the answer he wanted.
And so my reaction to that was just kind of like, man, I really, I don't know anything I didn't already know.
And I really thought this was going to be more enlightening than it was.
But now I'm watching another expert on...
On breathing, basically.
And Dr. Martin Tobin, who is apparently the god of breathing, and Martin, his testimony comes in at a beefy two and a half hours, and he is basically, I just started his testimony, and he's laying down all his credentials, and he is...
Apparently, the world's foremost expert in breathing and really cares about how your lungs work.
And he is going to explain how George Floyd died due to deoxygenation of his blood because the breathing that he was doing was so shallow, he was not getting enough oxygen due to the knee on the back of his neck.
And that's that.
So once I listen to his testimony and then any other...
I can from the trial.
I hopefully will have stronger commentary to give and to bring forth.
Of course, all of this then gets into right now the dueling fundraisers for Carmelo Anthony and the racist lady who called a toddler the N-word and is now raking in money hand over fist.
All of this, all of this tumult, all of this racial strife that we're neck deep in right now, that'll be next week.
We're going to get into that.
This week, I just wanted to talk about democratic messaging and how you just see so many people online.
They're just...
Always critical.
They're like, Dems can't talk.
Dems are bad at this.
What are they doing?
And a lot of this is being savvy.
A lot of this is being, I'm smarter than the average bear.
I know what's going on.
And this is a position that exists only on the left.
I mean, again, Donald Trump is telling people they're only going to be able to buy a couple dolls, not 30 dolls, and that he doesn't know if he needs to follow the Constitution or not.
And the right doesn't say, ooh, bad messaging.
Ooh, Donald.
Ooh, what a faux pas.
There's like the God Emperor bringing China to heel, bringing justice to the unjust in America.
All hail his glorious vision.
They just don't care.
There's never a bad time to celebrate Donald Trump when you're on the right.
Whereas on the left, Democrats, take him or leave him.
It's generally the mentality people have.
It's annoying.
But you hear the complaint about messaging, and I'm here to give you a solution.
And the solution is a very simple slogan.
Republicans can't govern.
That's it.
Republicans can't govern.
And the important...
The reason why you have to use this slogan is that Republicans love to take a tax on their elected officials and deflect them towards the rank-and-file voters of the Republican Party.
Then Fox News will go find a couple of middle American, blue-collar, married couple, probably incredibly white, and...
Have them sob on camera about how Tim Walz called them weird or how Hillary Clinton called them deplorable.
They just want to make America great again.
They're just trying to put food on the table for their little children and pay the bills and have a little money to bet on DraftKings.
They just want to live the American dream and these evil libs are coming at them and calling them mean names.
It's so unfair.
And that's why when you say Republicans can't govern, they can't do that deflection.
They can't do that verbal jujitsu where they take the attack that's coming at the elected officials and then redirect it at Joe Sixpack and Judy Punch Clock and make the Democrats out to being big meanie meanies.
And so...
There is the start.
That's the open.
And then once you've opened with that, then you get into why Republicans can't govern.
The reason why they can't govern is because they're nuts.
And that's the thing, is that if you opened with Republicans are nuts, now we're going to find some people who maybe they're, you know, we'll...
A little concerned about chemtrails.
Got a little question about that.
But again, look at them.
They're just in their early 30s.
They got a couple kids.
They're just trying to help.
They're trying to get their kids from college.
So what if they need to review a few more documents before they accept what chemtrails really are?
That's just Americans doing their own research.
They're not crazy.
They're not bad people.
They're just a little curious.
Isn't it good to do your own research and ask some questions?
Why do you hate America?
Why do you hate freedom?
Why are you a baby-killing, murderous, God-hating liberal, you fucking piece of shit?
How fucking dare you?
How dare you come at these poor people?
You start by saying that Republicans can't govern, and then you bring up the fact that Republicans are nuts, and this keeps the attack.
On the elected officials.
And you bring up the fact that Florida and Utah are banning fluoride.
You bring up the fact that RFK Jr. is investigating chemtrails and trying to do ridiculously bad things to vaccines.
You bring up the fact that Donald Trump is trying to reopen Alcatraz, which have been a museum for like 60 years, and you couldn't reopen it if you wanted to.
And also, he doesn't know how tariffs work.
And he's also like...
Senile and probably needs to be 25th Amendmented and all that good stuff.
But by doing all this, you focus the attacks directly on people.
You can name RFK Jr., DeSantis, the governor of Utah, whoever that nut is.
We'll make him into a boogeyman.
Marjorie Taylor Greene.
You can bring up the fact that MTG goes on Infowars all the time.
Alex Jones isn't a popular dude.
He's a nut.
He's a terrible person.
And everybody knows he's a terrible person.
You can attack Alex.
You can hang Alex around the Republicans' necks and go after him.
You can bring up the fact that Tucker Carlson was on Fox News and now the man said he got into a fistfight with a demon.
That he went crazy.
That these people...
Have lost the plot.
And until they come back to reality, we can't let them have power.
Because part of being a responsible elected official is understanding how reality works, not chasing after Bigfoot.
Then do that.
During the congressional midterms, have your staffers go to the...
Republican rallies and Republican town halls and have them in Bigfoot costumes, having them holding up signs saying Republicans for Sasquatch and that kind of stuff.
Give them the razzle-dazzle.
Give them the old one, too.
Let them know that they're kooks.
Have people shout at them if they believe that Michelle Obama is a man or not.
Get that on record.
Because...
I mean, I hate to tell the good people of America this, but Donald Trump Jr. on my Facebook is talking about how Michelle mentioned she's transitioning, which is a latest little thing that's going on.
Det er no litt kunstig med Visma Nett.
Men det er bare fordi kunstig intelligens er en del av økonomisystemet.
Den automatiserer ordinære oppgaver som innkjøp og fakturering, så du kan bruke tid til andre oppgaver.
Og i en stressende arbeidsverdag er jo det egentlig litt ekstraordinært.
Visma.net.
Automatiserer det ordinære.
Muliggjør det ekstraordinære.
Jensidia presenterer en dårlig dag på jobben på 90-tallet.
Hei, nå er det litt krise her.
Det har vært innbrudd i butikken, og det har bare...
Vi har tatt alt.
Åh, en dårlig dag på jobben i dag.
Vi har blitt hacka, vi nå.
Alle filene er låst, og nå skal vi bare ha masse krypte for å få låst opp igjen.
Jensidia har alltid vært der for bedrifter for små og store uheld.
Og det skal vi fortsette med.
Tiden går.
Jensidia består.
And...
And...
This all-consuming conspiracy theory nonsense that's...
Absolutely eaten up the Republican Party.
It needs to be called out.
And you call out the elected officials that are buying into this stuff.
And you call out the craziest of these things.
You don't call out people for being crazy.
You call out the behavior for being crazy.
It's an important part of management when you are dealing with a person.
Like a person who's often late to work.
You have to separate the bad behavior of being late to work from the person who's trying to be a good employee, just not setting their alarm clock, just not showing up, or maybe they don't think it's important.
Now you've got to let them know it is.
And that's the thing, is that nobody's going to defend chemtrail believers.
And if they do, now they look like a nut.
And that's the goal.
The goal is to get these people to expose themselves.
The goal is to get Fox News to admit, yeah, we're crazy.
Yeah, we can't govern.
We should not be allowed to govern because we buy into this stuff and we're not based in reality.
We yell at these people about flat Earth.
They think the Earth is a globe.
Let's...
Just see how deep the rot is.
And the answer is massively.
The rot is incredibly deep.
Marjorie Taylor Greene has...
Marjorie Taylor Greene follows like 600 accounts on Twitter.
And that...
One of those 600 accounts is a guy...
It is uncommon sense.
Which you may have seen me repost stuff from them.
And Uncommon Sense is a holocaust denier.
Really, that's it.
That's the long and the short of it.
This is...
A person who is unwell.
Marjorie also follows Tracy Beans, who is one of the early QAnon promoters.
And this is the thing, is that J.D. Vance follows that Nazi guy who got disowned by his family and still follows him.
Just not going to give up on that.
Marjorie also follows John Rocker.
Who literally just posts racism on the internet and is just an angry, dumb asshole.
And that's the thing, is that this kind of toxic, shitty, terrible person mentality that the Republicans have, no one calls them out for it.
No one says, hey, JD, why are you pals of Nazis?
You know, Marjorie, why do you follow a Holocaust denier?
What's going on there?
And it's just a thing where apparently, if you're a Republican, there's just no depth you can stoop to that won't offend people.
That people are just willing to be like, yeah, you know, Republicans can just kind of do what they want.
But heaven forbid if any Liberal were to follow anyone with anywhere near the kind of toxicity of these right-wingers.
I mean, just boy howdy.
We're going to hell at that point.
So I just think that there's meat on the bone.
There's meat on the bone with these issues.
There's meat on the bone with pointing out Republicans just don't really deal in facts.
They don't really deal in reality.
And there's a way to call them out on it.
There's a way to do it that insulates you from attacks on the rank and file.
And you got to make sure that you do things smooth and effectively.
And you let people know, I'm not mad at you.
I'm mad at these people that are running our country into the ground because instead of finding common sense solutions for the crises that Americans are facing today with a tough economy and all that kind of good stuff you say when you're in front of a crowd, you've rolled up your sleeves and you're just...
Getting a lather on as you're giving your stump speech.
You want to make sure that the people you're hitting are the people who deserve to be hit, and you're hitting them with the truth that they can't solve economic issues.
They can't solve health issues.
They can't solve the energy crisis.
They can't negotiate in good faith with Russia or China or anyone.
Because they're too busy thinking that pasteurization is a plot to keep Americans unwell.
And you go at that.
You go at that.
And yeah, you're going to get a lot of raw milk drinkers.
You're going to get a lot of chemtrail believers.
You're going to get a lot of flat earthers.
Bring them to light.
Expose them.
Expose what the Republican base is.
Expose the fact that it's a bunch of Holocaust deniers.
Expose the fact that it's Nick Fuentes and all these scumbags.
Show the American people that this is the group of people that these Republicans are seeking the votes of and this is the base they're trying to create.
But you don't attack them directly.
You don't say the Republican voters are Nazis because then it's like, oh no, you're calling everyone Nazis.
Boo, boo.
You say, look, man, we got this guy, Nick Fuentes.
He's bad.
He denies the Holocaust.
Why was Trump hanging out with him?
And you name the people.
You name the bad guys.
And if people want to come out and defend Nick Fuentes, then great.
Now you're a Nazi, too.
Wonderful.
You don't come out and say, oh, these Republican voters, they're all a bunch of fucking morons.
They believe in flat Earth.
No.
Oh, heavens no, you don't say that.
Because then you'll probably get a bunch of people who are like, no, I don't believe in flat Earth.
I think the Earth is round.
I just happen to think that aliens have abducted me a bunch of times and all kinds of other stuff like that.
But you just say, look...
I don't know if the Honorable Congresswoman from Georgia believes the earth is round or flat, but I think it's disquieting that I don't know the accuracy of that statement right now.
I don't want to have a Congresswoman who, you know, is debating the shape of the world.
It seems like it shouldn't be.
It should be a low bar to clear, and I don't know if she can do it.
Bam.
Focus.
Focus to focus.
We're hitting the scum.
We're hitting the bad people.
And we're hitting them on indefensible things.
Things that are like, that poll really well for us.
I think chem-shell truthers are not very popular in America.
I think raw milk drinkers are not very popular.
My opponent in this election wants to see Tom Hanks arrested for crimes I can't even speak of.
I think Tom Hanks is really popular.
I think talking about how your opponent wants to throw Tom Hanks in jail, probably a winner.
My esteemed opponent has had a tough time answering some questions up here tonight.
I'd like to ask him a question.
Is Michelle Obama a woman?
And the moderator will object and freak out.
And he'll be like, look.
I've seen some posts this guy's made, and it seems like he's questioning it.
So I just want to...
We're here.
We've got a live mic in front of us.
Debate audience.
This clip will go on social media.
Let us know, man.
What do you think?
Does Michelle have a penis or not?
Come on, man.
You can talk.
You can tell us all about it.
Donald Trump Jr. seems to be suspect about things.
Do you agree with Donald Trump Jr.?
Steve Bannon's brought it up.
Do you agree with Stevie?
This is what you do.
You put these people on the spot, you call them out for this bullshit, and you hit them.
And you don't stop hitting them because they have no defense for the fact that they've spent the last basically 20 years, and after QAnon, the last eight, aggressively harvesting votes from nuts.
And that's shameful, and it's something that should be an Achilles heel.
And I think we should use that.
So, that's it.
You probably saw from the runtime this was Scrummy Short, and it was, so I hope you enjoyed it.
Next week we'll be back with an hour, hour, hour 30 standard giant slice-o content for you to consume.
If you enjoy the show, five-star review, wherever you listen to it.
If you want to give me money, go to patreon.com slash pokerpolitics.
Help me out.
That'd be lovely.
If you don't want to help me out, go to love146.org and donate to a group of people that are fighting human trafficking, which is a good thing to do.
We should probably fight human trafficking.
It's bad.
It should be stopped.
Thanks to Frosty and DJ Minimal Effort for the bumps and the music.
Thanks to all you good folks who are out there for listening.
Thanks to Solid Ed O 'Brien and Rob Reiner for being my mortal enemies.
I don't know why I threw that in.
I just felt like I needed to.
Have a good one, everybody.
Good speed, Patriots.
