	Okay, hello everybody.
	Welcome to another episode of Gish Gallop Girl.
	I am your host, Thomas Anderson, and with me...
	Matthew Anderson.
	And let's...
	Let me move my microphone around a little bit here.
	Okay, so...
	Let's discuss what we need to discuss here.
	So, naturally, when we recorded the last episode, it was election night.
	And towards the end of our session, Kamala was swiftly gaining ground.
	I think anybody who's been alive for the last couple of weeks knows what happened next.
	We all woke up and said, Crap.
	I didn't write even a script.
	No?
	No, I did not.
	I took a few days' mental break last week, and I listened to a ton of shows, including Candice.
	And what I came away with was she's, of course, doing a lot of gloating, because these people don't know how to be gracious winners.
	No.
	Sore losers often are not gracious winners.
	No.
	And I was like, alright, you know.
	So I listened to her show for about three days straight, and I was like, you know, man, I'm just not feeling it right now.
	And I went and I listened to the normal run of my podcast throughout the week and a bunch of music.
	I just, I really needed some pick-me-ups.
	As the news has been coming in, every day is a little bit worse about the incoming Trump campaign.
	Yeah.
	Or administration, or what have you.
	Like, the motherfucker is giving Dr. Oz a job.
	Dr. Oz?
	Dr. Oz.
	Dr. Mehmet Oz.
	He is, or he was anyway, one of the best heart surgeons in the world.
	Then Oprah blew him up several years ago, and he had his own daytime talk show.
	And he's one of these anti-aging guys.
	He sells anti-aging supplements and shit.
	He ran for a Senate seat.
	Okay.
	About two years ago.
	And he didn't get it.
	Like, he soundly did not get it.
	For one thing, he was running for a Senate seat in a state he's never resided in.
	That's a great way to get people behind you.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, I think it was Pennsylvania, but I'm not sure.
	You know, it was funny at the time that he didn't get it and that, you know, his campaign was so batshit dumb.
	Yeah, like that was happening the year that we were moving up here.
	So I was just kind of disengaged with everything.
	I was just like, balls to the wall, work every day, get the fuck out of Florida.
	Yeah, I remember that stretch there.
	Yeah, so, you know, I just, like I said, I kind of had to take a mental wellness break for the last couple of weeks.
	And I had to consider, you know...
	What are we going to do with this show moving forward?
	Now, I've talked with you a little bit about it, but I've also kind of cooked up some stuff in the background.
	For one thing, I want to keep doing this show.
	Yeah.
	But here's the thing, and this is what I talked with you about.
	I don't want there to be any more of a money trail than there is for the show.
	And by that, I mean strictly Patreon.
	I've been half-tempted to do something like set up a Bitcoin address.
	I have been half-tempted to do that just because people tend to give that shit out.
	But I don't want to deal with the whole endgame of transaction fees and all that shit.
	And then you've got to declare it on your taxes.
	That's been a thing for a few years.
	And I'm like, you know...
	Man, that is a path, and they can call it cryptocurrency all they want to.
	The Bitcoin ledger is publicly available.
	Anyone who knows your public address can look up what the transactions were.
	So it's basically a less secure bank account at that point?
	Yes.
	It is far less secure.
	Meanwhile, what we have with Patreon, I am able to...
	And I haven't taken a single Patreon payout yet.
	But when I choose to, I can have that pay to PayPal account for the show.
	And then I can PayPal that to myself.
	I haven't done that yet.
	But that's the path.
	It's very simple and PayPal does actually a good job of keeping everything secure and they're owned by eBay these days.
	All it would take...
	For someone to get that information, it would really take, like, a court letter.
	Yeah.
	You know, so, like, I'm not, like I said, I'm not really worried about that, because right now, the payout level is so small, it's not worth cashing into.
	Yeah, it's not worth worrying about it.
	Now, if it got to a real money point, then, you know, I'd be like, alright, let me look at my path forward.
	But, you know, money...
	What's that?
	I just burped.
	Okay.
	What I was going to say, though, is that money trails are a real concern going into the new administration because Trump has claimed that the media was his enemy.
	Now, I kind of talked with you about this the other day, but it has stuck out to me that, you know, when I tune into NPR or any of these, like...
	Classic, you know, left-wing main media programs.
	Or even just centrist programs.
	These people, like, it felt like it was the fucking day after the...
	Results.
	Yeah.
	But these people started...
	They stopped using the term undocumented migrants.
	Yeah.
	They started using the term illegal aliens.
	That was a term I hadn't heard.
	On center or center-left podcasts and shows and shit in a long time.
	Yeah.
	You know, especially not from, like, national sources, MSNBC, CNN.
	They began using the term illegal aliens, which is a mainline term of the fascists.
	Let's call them what they are.
	Yeah.
	That's been their term for a long time, and they always sneered at the undocumented migrants term.
	Yeah.
	So, that being said, and these people across the board toadying up in various ways to the administration, like it came out yesterday, some hosts on MSNBC who run a morning segment literally called Morning Joe.
	Yeah.
	The main host of the show is Joe Scarborough and his ex-wife.
	Okay.
	Mika's somebody.
	She has a last name that's important.
	Her dad was somebody important.
	I don't give a shit.
	At any rate, they started speaking positively about the oncoming administration.
	And, of course, left-wing people on Mastodon and stuff picked up immediately.
	They're like, well, I didn't have these people becoming bootlickers on my bingo card, but here we are.
	Yeah.
	It's that, and it's all of this other...
	It's watching the media cave in because they knew the entire time, and they didn't go after him for it, they knew the threat level that Trump posed.
	Yeah.
	They were aware.
	The Project 2025 book outlines...
	Every fucking thing.
	It outlines every single step that these people want to take.
	Which one was it?
	God, I can't remember what it was, but there's a line of damn Nazis in their lists.
	It's always lists.
	Well, I mean, you know, there's There's this thing that Alex Jones has always been fond of saying, and that is that the globalists, they tell you their plans, and movies are predictive programming for what's going to happen,
	and he'll use things like fucking Outbreak.
	Yeah.
	And The Stand.
	Well, I mean, didn't he try to say that Avengers Endgame was like...
	Oh, okay.
	Let me get into that.
	Let me get into that.
	So, there was, of course, there was Avengers Infinity War Part 1. Yeah.
	Was the title we all got.
	Yeah.
	Natural to assume the next movie is going to be Infinity War Part 2. Yeah.
	Instead, they made the choice to call it NGAC.
	Mm-hmm.
	To which the internet sighed and said, all right.
	Mm-hmm.
	Now, Alex Jones had made a movie.
	I'm not going to call it a documentary because it's not.
	Yeah.
	He made a movie years ago.
	A mockumentary?
	No, no, no.
	Not even a mockumentary?
	A mockumentary is something like This Is Spinal Tap or Drop Dead Gorgeous.
	Okay, okay.
	Yeah, no.
	He made this movie about a fucking highway in Texas.
	And he called it Endgame.
	And he put it up on Amazon.
	Like, he made these movies.
	Now, I will give the man a little bit of credit.
	Yeah.
	He made all his shit free.
	Okay.
	And what he did, though, was he encouraged people to, like, download it and burn it.
	Or, like, buy a copy and then make copies.
	Like, when they were VHSs.
	So, he wants...
	He wanted people to pirate and distribute his shit.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	He was one of the first people on board with internet access, putting his conspiracy theory world out there.
	He wanted to build an audience.
	He wanted to build an audience because from the earliest days he was hawking gold and vitamins and shit.
	So he wanted an audience that would be in the door.
	Okay.
	Yeah.
	It would be a...
	Oh, I watched his movie.
	Yeah, I'll give his podcast a listen.
	That sort of thing.
	Uh-huh.
	Okay.
	Yeah.
	You know, like...
	And then when...
	Like he had all this shit up on YouTube.
	It was all free for a long time until his channel got deleted.
	Yeah.
	But there's still like, I think if you go to band.video, or at least up until recently, if you go to band.video, you could still watch his shit.
	But there's any number of places on the internet that saved it and show it and have it downloadable and shit.
	It'd be hilarious if there's a link somewhere on Pornhub for it.
	That wouldn't shock me.
	I'll tell you right now, there's entire Transformers movies on that bitch that people have made memes about.
	Of like, yo guys, I found a copy of the full Transformers movie, it looks amazing, and it's the Transformers with like the hour or two hours that it runs, and the full title, but the entire back page is Pornhub.
	Yeah.
	And it's like, how did you...
	Well, Pornhub was actually a place, before Bitchute and some of these other companies started working, Pornhub was actually a place where guys in the manosphere who were getting kicked off of YouTube would take their content to.
	Because they were like, well, dudes are going to be here anyway.
	And I can still make money because they could still like...
	I promise you, it's not what you think.
	I'm watching a guy tell me how to be a better man.
	He's keeping it in his pants.
	It's not good.
	But why is he on Pornhub Gay?
	I didn't ask that question.
	I just followed the link.
	Come on, sis.
	You know I'm a real guy.
	I'm just thinking of the kind of guy that goes there.
	True, true.
	The kind of guy that's going to be watching Andrew fucking Tate on Pornhub.
	Okay, any guy that's watching Andrew Tate on Pornhub is jacking it to Andrew Tate.
	Yeah.
	They've either hit the point of they've watched every type of porn that they're just like, I don't know what I'm doing on here anymore.
	And then they find that and they're just like, I mean, I'm already hard and I got the lotion on my hand already.
	I can't find anything else.
	I already came to the party.
	I might as well dance.
	You know, but yeah, these fucking man-fluencers.
	They were all over Pornhub at one point.
	And then Bitchute came along.
	Do you know what Bitchute is?
	Honestly, it sounds like one of them knockoff games that you could get on your phone nowadays.
	You know, the free ones that are full of like 20 ads.
	I wish.
	Bitchute is where people who got kicked off of YouTube but didn't really want to put their material up on Pornhub went to in the interim.
	Okay.
	Yeah.
	BitChute, it still exists.
	People still upload shit to it.
	BitChute has a unique way that it works.
	You know, a content creator uploads whatever the fuck.
	Yeah.
	And then what happens is everyone that watches it becomes a torrent node.
	So the more people you have watching a video, the more distributed it is, the easier it is for everyone to watch the video.
	Okay.
	Yeah.
	They got around a lot of storage complications that way.
	Okay.
	Because that's one of the biggest things for any new site, is how do we handle the storage and the bandwidth and all that.
	BitChute made the bandwidth the viewer's problem.
	Okay.
	Yeah, because at that point it's...
	Well, it's kind of like in the early days of Elder Scrolls Online.
	Yeah.
	Like, in the early days of it, it was pretty fun.
	And then there was a midpoint there between a couple of years where it really blew up in popularity.
	And you knew it because when you tried to load up Elder Scrolls Online Morrowind Edition and you're sitting there and you're like, alright, I'm loading in.
	Where is the rest of the...
	And my game crashed.
	Okay.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, it's, you know, so they made the, they kind of, that's their formula, as far as I'm aware.
	And BitChute came around along the same time as other Nazi-adjacent sites like Gab and Mines.
	Sorry.
	Yeah.
	Gab.
	Well, these were early Twitter wannabes.
	What?
	It's Gab.
	I didn't make it up.
	I wish I didn't know about it.
	Okay, look.
	Gab is funny to me for another reason.
	Okay.
	Remember how we were just talking about porn?
	Yeah, okay.
	One of the 3D art porn creators, their studio is called The Gab.
	Okay.
	I don't remember what it stands for, but you said The Gab and my brain just went there.
	It's probably something very simple-minded, like great-ass booty or something.
	You know what's sad?
	You probably aren't wrong.
	Or China-ass boobs.
	Oh, okay.
	I'm probably not wrong, and that's what sucks.
	They had all these sites early on, and it was where all these people could go, well, that's where guys like Dave Rubin, And Russell Brand and stuff.
	Stefan Molyneux.
	They figured out where their audience was and then they just kind of took them from those other things.
	I don't know if these people still post to Gab or Mines or any of these other shitball sites.
	I haven't been on them in a long time.
	I don't want to make a show account for them.
	I don't generally give a shit.
	Yeah.
	But that brings me around to Rumble.
	Yeah.
	Now, I had mentioned before, don't worry, we're not on Rumble.
	Even though every now and then I'm like, God, well, how cool would that be to just take money from these fucks on Rumble, on their own platform, get paid on their own platform.
	Don't think it hasn't occurred to me.
	Yeah, no, what gets me about Rumble, though, is...
	I told you, and I mentioned it in previous episodes, Some Kind Soul uploaded all of the existing episodes of Candace Owens' A Shot in the Dark series.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Well, those are all in MP4 format, and I have them.
	Yeah.
	I took the time to download them.
	I do have all of them.
	So what I'm going to do is I'm going to run them all as...
	I'm going to convert them all from MP4 to MP3.
	That's going to be the content we're going to go through until that content is dead.
	Meaning we've exhausted it.
	I want to go point by point on these things.
	Part of the reason why is one of Trump's key people that's coming in is Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
	I don't know what the F stands for and I don't care.
	Probably Frederick.
	Or Fitzgerald or whatever.
	These people are not geniuses at names.
	But yeah, RFK Jr. is one of Trump's incoming people.
	Probably.
	Because here's the thing.
	Trump has announced a lot of his cabinet picks and each one is kind of worse than the last.
	Somehow.
	But what he's doing is what's called a recess appointment.
	Okay.
	Where he can kind of sidestep the actual senatorial confirmation.
	The Senate has to vote on the president's cabinet picks.
	Yeah.
	They get to vote on who his main advisors and shipdoers are.
	Yeah.
	Well, he can appoint people for two years without Senate confirmation.
	Okay. So that's what a lot of people, I mean, they've even said that that's what they're going to do.
	I can't even say that people are saying that's it because they've come out and said it.
	Yeah. Now, that said, though, they do have a friendly Senate coming in.
	Okay. And what has been surmised by the people that know way more about this shit than I do...
	Is that the incoming Senate might just go ahead and fucking confirm these people.
	Yeah.
	Well, that all said, even if Robert F. Kennedy Jr. didn't get in, he's still going to appoint somebody like that man to do the shit.
	And from what I know of what's in the Shot in the Dark series, circling back around to that, from what I know about that, Candace used material from RFK Jr.'s website and stuff to justify a lot of her anti-vax shit.
	Now what's funny though is there's two episodes that were never released.
	I don't know if she's going to put them up on Locals.
	If she does, somebody will find a way to get them to me.
	The internet is cool like that.
	But one of those episodes I know is about polio.
	Oh, hell, yeah.
	I would love the easy t-ball of batting back anything she has to say about polio vaccines.
	Yeah.
	That's such an easy win.
	I could probably do it on edibles.
	Yeah.
	I mean, I could probably write that script entirely on edibles and a lack of sleep, but...
	You know, it's something really that I want to explore, is the Shot in the Dark series.
	So, you know, whether it's fucking 12 episodes of our show, or a few, I mean, each one of these Shot in the Dark episodes is less than an hour long.
	Okay.
	So what I'm thinking is, you know, because they were...
	They were originally on her paid Candace Owens show account.
	I don't know if there's going to be ad reads.
	Yeah.
	And what's funny though is even up until her recent shows, this past week people were asking her about Shot in the Dark and whether it would be on Locals or not.
	And she's still trying to explain Oh yeah, we had problems getting the episodes and converting them.
	And I'm like, someone fucking uploaded them onto Rumble.
	Yeah.
	Someone downloaded them from the other thing and had them.
	And then made a channel and uploaded them onto Rumble.
	Now what's funny, the first channel I downloaded them from got killed.
	So I was like, alright, well, you know, I already got them, but has anybody else put them up?
	Yeah, when that one channel got killed, five more popped up.
	God, it's like the fucking...
	It's like a Hydra.
	Yeah, I was gonna say...
	They kill one, and more people are like, well, fuck you.
	Well, my brain just went to the one Hydra Nazi and fucking...
	No, Captain America.
	Oh, yeah.
	And the first Captain America movie, he's standing there in the hallway as the Americans are coming through and he goes, cut off one head!
	And we grow five more!
	And then he gets killed and he's like, alright, let's go find five more Nazis, boys.
	Right.
	And for some reason my brain just, it went there when you said, yeah, five other ones.
	And I was like, cut off one head!
	Here's the funny thing, too.
	One of the channels is also, In the small...
	God bless them for this.
	The small sub-business of putting up full movies.
	Of different kinds.
	Of all different kinds.
	And I was like, I'm not going to download those.
	That's okay.
	I ended up...
	You know how sometimes I leave my TV running?
	I came home after I got done hanging out with one of my friends.
	And I turned on my TV.
	And Spaceballs was playing.
	But it wasn't playing through YouTube Plus' movie system.
	Somebody had uploaded it from their personal account onto YouTube, and I was just like, I don't know how long this one's going to remain for, but it's playing now.
	So the people have been doing that.
	So I'm like, well, I mean, okay.
	Y 'all fight with Rumble.
	I got what I need.
	I don't really give a fuck.
	Piracy.
	What's funny, though, is Candice has entirely stopped telling viewers to go to Rumble for the comment reads.
	She just kind of reads them from Rumble on YouTube now, I think.
	Because she's not telling anybody to just go.
	Now, I haven't looked at her YouTube channel, so I don't know if she gets to the end of the regular show and maybe a screen pops up, because what happens when they release it as a podcast is that's all just there.
	Wouldn't it be hilarious if she thinks that that little pop-up is supposed to happen on everything that it goes on to, and that's why there hasn't been a...
	And go to Rumble for yada yada.
	For whatever, yeah.
	Which, to the problems with uploading, Her episodes?
	Yeah.
	That...
	I was having a similar problem with uploading some of my D&D maps.
	Yeah.
	I was trying to upload one very specific one, and I just couldn't get it.
	My friend was just like, okay, right-click on the image.
	Okay.
	Open the link.
	Okay.
	All right.
	You're in your browser now, right?
	It was like, yeah.
	Now save the image from the link.
	Okay.
	Uploaded it perfectly clear, and I'm like, you know, I feel like a fucking idiot right now.
	Because I've been just saving image directly off Discord, and I'm like, why isn't this fucking working?
	Well, that's the thing, though.
	She's got this team of idiots, this team of at least four idiots.
	You have to be an idiot to continue to clock in every day.
	Yeah.
	For Candace Owens.
	I have no sympathy for these people.
	No.
	They are choosing their fate.
	Yeah.
	It's like anybody that works at InfoWars after everyone kind of knew what it was.
	Yeah.
	And you still take a job there?
	No.
	No.
	Speaking of InfoWars, this has happened over the last week.
	The Onion bought InfoWars.
	Satire site, The Onion bought InfoWars.
	Okay.
	Don't squish.
	Our kitty is in here and she just wanted to touch the microphone.
	At any rate.
	The Onion bought InfoWars.
	Silly girl.
	So The Onion buys InfoWars.
	Then Alex realized how bad that looked.
	The Onion didn't just get InfoWars.
	They got all his shit.
	His vitamin companies.
	Every damn thing.
	All his websites.
	All of it.
	They went to the Sandy Hook families first.
	And they were like, do y 'all mind getting a little less money for us to get everything?
	And the families weren't in it for the money to begin with.
	They just wanted to crush InfoWars.
	And they agreed.
	They were like, yeah, sure.
	You know, and people had tweeted out, they're like, can you imagine being the Onion lawyer who goes to the Sammy Hook family?
	He's like, hey, I'm sorry for everything, but do y 'all want to do the funniest thing?
	But, yeah, so, anyway, that's been a back-and-forth legal battle now because, yeah, it looks really bad.
	Yeah.
	But the families were like, yeah, we'll take less money for this to happen.
	Everything had gone through.
	The Onion had it.
	And then, like, they lost it, and then they had it again.
	So it's this big back and forth now.
	And Alex is claiming that Elon Musk is going to save him from all this.
	Because he has sucked Elon's toes so hard since he bought Twitter.
	He has sucked Elon's toes so hard since then, Elon put him back on Twitter.
	Jesus.
	Yeah.
	To which point, you know, Alex is just like so grateful and, you know, Elon's the best person that ever lived, all that good shit.
	Yeah.
	Now, here's the thing, right?
	So, in the first Trump administration, Alex, Candace, all these people, they really didn't have much of a leg to stand on to complain anymore.
	Yeah.
	Their brands are built on fucking rage.
	Yeah.
	So, what do you do?
	Well, instead of just accepting the win and being like, you know, they don't know how to enjoy it.
	Because enjoying it, like Alex said it himself, he got drunk enough in an interview to say it himself, that his, you know, you can't sell people on a collapse.
	Yeah.
	You can't sell them gold for an economic collapse.
	If your boy is in the head seat, you can't be like, Trump's going to cause an economic collapse, you should totes buy gold.
	So the gold sales through his site went down.
	The gold sales through all of these magic monkey sites went down.
	His supplements went down.
	He had to start this whole Patriot Points program just to get people to accumulate points to get free shit.
	And then it wasn't good enough that he had Patriot points.
	Then he did sales where you'd get double Patriot points.
	Well, then the end result of that is then he's running Black Friday sales every three weeks.
	To which people who have bought a month or two months or three months of vitamins, they just learned, they trained themselves to wait for that next sale.
	Yeah.
	So he was selling stuff at under cost constantly.
	Jesus.
	Like barely making really a profit.
	He made enough of a profit.
	He could afford to live rich.
	Yeah.
	But not the kind of profit he should have been seeing.
	But he would take like long, like hours long things on his show to complain about how they weren't making any money and how his lawyers and his accountants and whatever had told him to stop running discounts and stop running Patriot Point sales because...
	You know, they weren't making any money on this shit.
	Yeah.
	It became a mega issue for him because, again, if all of your proper people are in the right offices, well...
	You've got no rage.
	Yeah, you've got no juice.
	You've got no gas for the fire anymore.
	I wonder if that's why half of those rage producers don't vote.
	Or they'll sit there and...
	Well, one of the reasons, one of the big reasons is, like in Florida, for example, if you know someone's name, and I think it's what county they live in, but if you know someone's name, you don't need much else to put it into the state of Florida voter checker and get their fucking address.
	That said, When I looked up Candace Owens in Tennessee, she still had not registered to vote the day of.
	When I looked her up, of course she never came up.
	But I don't know what would have happened if she did.
	I didn't put in anybody's information for Tennessee that I knew had voted.
	I was just focused on her and her possible last names.
	All that said, you won't find...
	Candace, on these people finder sites, you'll find her entire family, and I have.
	I found all her family.
	I can tell you where people were buried.
	I have a file.
	And what she has said about one of her sisters matches up with what I have already, so I'm like, alright.
	I was on the right path.
	I have it.
	It's funny, her dad and Kanye West's dad.
	Live a few blocks apart from each other.
	That's funny.
	Phoenix.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, they both live in Phoenix, Arizona.
	No wonder why she knows Wes so well.
	It's one of many reasons.
	Yeah.
	So, yeah, they, you know, like I said, though, getting back to it, like, I want to cover the Shot in the Dark series because it's a big linchpin of her empire right now as being able to sell Those local subscriptions.
	Because what she said she was going to do, and I have not checked into any of her shit for the last two weeks.
	I was like, you know, it's bad enough I'm listening to her just gloat constantly.
	She keeps claiming there's these TikTok trends, for example.
	Where women are like, you know, I'm not having sex again because Trump's back in office.
	Like, the only place I'm hearing about these trends is on her fucking show.
	So I'm like, okay, whatever.
	20,000 women pissed off.
	I get it.
	I'm with them.
	I understand.
	Yeah.
	At the same time, this is not newsworthy.
	No.
	What she skips over is recently one of Trump's, Trump's pick for attorney general, right?
	His White House lawyer is a dude named Matt Gaetz.
	Now, the Attorney General spot is also one that has to be confirmed.
	Here's what's fucked up, right?
	Gates has all kinds of credible sexual allegations against him, including one where he transported a minor across state lines and had sex with her at a party with a bunch of drugs.
	There are witnesses to this.
	There's also, and that came out early on in his run in the house.
	Yeah.
	He's from Florida, by the way.
	That makes sense.
	Yeah, it does.
	But Matt Gaetz has been a friend of all of these dirtbags for a while, including the one from Georgia, Marjorie Taylor Greene, who's a QAnon idiot.
	He's been QAnon-friendly this entire time.
	He realized early on the MAGA base is my base, too.
	I need to own this.
	So that's what he did.
	The deal is, though, is that there's also allegations of him, like, on the House floor showing other members of Congress, like, his phone and going, you know, this is a video of a chick I had sex with last night.
	And one of the guys from his office is now doing 11 years in federal prison because of a Bitcoin scam he ran?
	I'm sorry, but how do you get fucking lynched for a Bitcoin scam?
	Pretty easy.
	You use public funds to buy it.
	Okay.
	Fair enough.
	Yeah.
	I thought it was one of the more complicated ones where they got the fucking server rooms and shit going.
	No.
	I think he might have also bought equipment to mine with.
	Yeah.
	But yeah.
	So all of that was provable.
	Like, dumbly provable.
	Like, didn't even try to really hide it provable.
	Yeah.
	So yeah, Gates was involved in all this shit.
	He's kind of a...
	He's almost a central spoke to all of this garbage.
	Yeah.
	Well, the House Ethics Committee filed a report that was going to come out like a week ago.
	Here's the deal.
	Gates accepted publicly Trump's nomination of him as his Attorney General and quit his position in the House.
	Which means that he's no longer...
	Well, here's the thing.
	Yeah.
	They have the report on file.
	It was going to come out two days after he had quit.
	He knew it was coming.
	So he quits his position in the House, which means they have to run a special election to fill that seat.
	Yeah.
	Well, there are people credibly pushing for this report to be released.
	Marjorie Taylor Greene, wonderful idiot friend of his, comes out, I think it was yesterday, and she says, if you're going to release this file on Matt Gaetz, then you should release every file on every member of Congress.
	To which everybody's kind of like, yeah, alright, you finally said something we can all agree with, Marjorie.
	Yeah.
	Way to go.
	You got one right.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	Release all the files on these people.
	If they're pedophiles and shit...
	We'd like to know.
	Yeah.
	We'd like to know and they should be in prison.
	Yeah.
	Period.
	I don't care who they are.
	I don't care if I've agreed with them up to this point.
	Wow, you did fucked shit.
	Mm-hmm.
	Go the fuck away.
	So, yeah, she's...
	I think she might wind up eating those words.
	Yeah.
	I mean, there was a...
	There was a guy I used to play D&D with that, like, was one of the nicest dudes I'd met playing D&D.
	Yeah.
	And, you know, he was real fun to play with.
	He was a DM.
	I'd never got to play in the game that he was going to DM, though, because one day he just stopped talking to all of us.
	Yeah.
	And we were all kind of like...
	Man, I hope he's okay.
	And somebody was like, yeah, sometimes he goes into these depressive streaks where he doesn't talk to anybody for a month.
	And I was like, alright.
	And then one day, his son messages all of us and posts up his mugshot along with his crimes and says, this is the real man that you've all been friends with for the past decade.
	Oh my god.
	And everybody, like, the kid was always an asshole, so we were all like, dude, this isn't cool, because it was a bunch of sexual assault allegations and stuff.
	And then dude's wife popped in there and said, no, this is real.
	He has raped me and forced our son to take Viagra at a young age and fuck him.
	And he's like, okay.
	Holy shit, this dude was real fucking bad.
	I'm glad he's serving how many?
	20 to life.
	I hope he gets life.
	I hope he continues to fuck around in prison, and if they find out what he's in here for, he is not going to survive the night.
	When we found out about that, that was kind of...
	The main breakup of that whole D&D group, because they were like, we don't...
	We've agreed with this man for, like, years.
	We've all, like, loved hanging out with him.
	What the fuck?
	Yeah.
	Yeah, I mean, you know, and that's...
	It's a web of monsters being pulled into this administration.
	And, you know, one of the things that we talked about...
	Earlier in the week is something else that I wanted to bring up, which was Trump is following a pattern of strongman dictators.
	They've already said they're going to use the military to enforce mass deportations.
	There's at least one maggot in Texas that has offered his ranch land for them to build camps on.
	Oh, fun.
	Yeah, deportation camps.
	I'm real glad a couple of my friends have moved out of there.
	Well, that's the thing.
	If they have these deportation camps, and they have friendly governors from other states, they will put people on prison buses from those states.
	Right now, the only two sanctuary states that I know of?
	Maybe three.
	Washington State might be one of them.
	I don't know.
	But California and Minnesota.
	We currently live in a sanctuary state.
	That said, the guy who's running all of this stuff, Tom something or other, he has said that they will use the National Guard and the military from other states to take people out of sanctuary states and cities.
	The problem...
	They keep saying that they're going to go after undocumented illegal aliens.
	They've also said they're going to go after the ones that are knowingly here.
	They're going to go after people who were what they call DACA or Dreamers, which are people whose parents came over.
	The fucking Dreamer program started with Obama, so these are people who have been here for 10, 20 years almost.
	DACA recipients were people who were like, Like, not even in kindergarten, most of them.
	They weren't born here.
	They're not anchor babies, as they term them.
	They came over with their parents illegally.
	They were allowed to stay here.
	Because most of these people don't even speak their parents' language.
	Their parents didn't want them to know it, for whatever their reasons were.
	Like, no, you learn English, this is America.
	They didn't want them to have the hint of an accent.
	So, yeah, a lot of them, they don't speak whatever fucking language they came from.
	You know, they don't speak the language.
	They don't know anybody back in those countries.
	A lot of their families came here.
	So, unless their entire family is going back, they don't know anybody.
	They don't know anybody back there.
	They might have cousins in the old country they've never met, they've never talked to.
	You know, they wouldn't know.
	If you drop them off in Mexico City, they wouldn't know literally where to walk.
	Yeah.
	You know, and that's a problem.
	Like, that's his biggest linchpin is he says he's going to start doing that on day one.
	Yeah.
	People were saying, even Latinos for Trump, which is a group I cannot wrap my head around, and all these other groups were saying, like, in the lead-up to the election, oh, he's not going to do that, he can't do that, then why are you voting for him?
	Yeah.
	If he can't do the things you say he has said he's going to do, the things that they literally produce a 900-page book outlining how they're going to do this shit, if he can't do that, why are you voting for him?
	Yeah.
	Is a question no one could answer.
	Because what they were voting for was the darkness in their fucking souls.
	Yeah.
	That's what they were voting for.
	Trump was a fucking template and they just said, oh, he said all this other shit, but then he said this and that.
	I like that.
	Yeah.
	You know?
	And a lot of the breakdown in the liberal podcasts and shows and shit over the last two weeks has been people saying, you know, oh, like, Biden shouldn't have even run.
	They should have run a primary.
	You know?
	And then, like, then we would have known whether we wanted Kamala in there or not.
	And then others have pointed out Kamala takes over that run.
	She was only running for a hundred days.
	She had a hundred days.
	It was impressive, frankly.
	It was fucking impressive.
	Trump, everyone has pointed out, has basically been campaigning for nine fucking years.
	Yeah.
	From the time he decided he was running, he campaigned through his presidency, and then he campaigned through Biden's presidency.
	And then campaigned through this...
	He's going to be campaigning forever.
	Because he likes doing...
	He likes going to rallies.
	He likes getting the love of a crowd of brainwashed morons.
	Yeah.
	Like most egotistical old men.
	Yeah.
	He loves the energy he gets from that.
	He loves doing shit that enrages people online.
	He should have just stuck with being a movie star.
	A lot of them get away with that these days.
	I want to say Tom Hiddleston, Loki.
	He showed up to a Comic Con and he wore his full Loki suit.
	Everybody was like, and up next...
	Tom Hiddleston.
	And he walks out onto the stage, and it's one of them fancy stages, so they change the lighting and everything.
	He walks out, and everybody's just cheering for him and everything, and he's like, man, this...
	He's trying to talk, but you can't hear him.
	And he just puts his hand out and waves it across the stage, and everybody in a wave just goes quiet.
	That's right.
	And he goes, oh, is this what it's like to actually be a demigod?
	This feels great.
	Section A. And he just starts commanding them around, and the host is just like, Tom, Tom, we have a show to run here.
	He's like, oh, yeah, sorry, just, this is, oh, I could get addicted to this.
	Right.
	Yeah, they, well, the thing is, is that people pointed out early, early on, near 10 years ago, that all these court cases that have been spinning around, Mm-hmm.
	With Trump as the central figure started back then.
	Yeah.
	Like, and the problem that people have not come to realize that podcasters were screaming about is that, you know, I think he put up like three Supreme Court justices during his first run.
	People retire, people die.
	Yeah.
	And Biden only put in one person.
	Jackson, I don't remember her name, and I feel bad about that.
	But anyway, Biden only put in one, up against six conservative judges.
	So that's a nine-judge court.
	You've got six that are conservatives.
	Yeah.
	And one of the things they decided, because it was a central figure of one of these lawsuits, was...
	Can the president basically do criminal shit in office and never suffer a consequence for it?
	And they were like, yeah.
	Make that a benefit of the office.
	To which a lot of people were like, this is Biden's chance to do the funniest thing ever.
	You just order a hit.
	Just order some hits, man.
	But yeah, so they did that.
	They were like, oh yeah, the president can't be held.
	Okay, well, that's a bad thing to tell a guy like Trump.
	Yeah.
	Who might have been like, well, is this criminal?
	Mm-hmm.
	He doesn't have to ask anybody that question anymore.
	Yeah.
	If Matt Gaetz is his Attorney General, if Matt Gaetz currently has a hate boner on the FBI, and the Justice Department itself, because...
	Those are the people that did the investigation that created the file on him that the fucking Congress has.
	Yeah.
	Matt Gaetz has a hate boner for that group.
	Tulsi Gabbard.
	God.
	She's still in a cult.
	Yeah.
	She's in a cult.
	Everyone has known it for a long time.
	She was a Democrat who turned into a Republican.
	And, yeah, she...
	She's going to be the Director of Intelligence.
	That's who you want over the CIA.
	But here's the thing.
	She would be over all of the intelligence agencies.
	He's got somebody else for the CIA.
	Somebody else for the FBI.
	Like, he's pulling all of these strings.
	Like I said, every name I hear is somehow worse than the last, and they're all bastards.
	Yeah.
	So, like I said, I'm looking at all of this, and Candace absolutely went to bat for Matt Gaetz the other day.
	Yeah.
	And it was one of those things where I was like, man, it sucks that I'm not in the mood to do this right now.
	Because she was like, they investigated into his entire life for this many years, and she's totally going to bat for the guy.
	She's like, head should roll if he gets in.
	And I'm like, man.
	God, you're the worst person.
	How are you worse than this shitbag?
	How can you run cover for these people?
	Like I said, I listened to several days of it.
	I've not picked up on her stuff this week.
	I started listening to one and I was just like, I can't.
	I will get back into it.
	Starting tomorrow, I needed my two-week break from her crap, even though I listened to three episodes.
	Anyway, it's why I want to do A Shot in the Dark.
	Yeah.
	Because I have the material, and I have the original material.
	I don't know if she's edited shit to go up onto Rumble, or to go up onto Locals, or whatever.
	Yeah.
	I want to take advantage of having the original material to go through and play it.
	Yeah.
	And also the knowledge that I have the shit.
	Yeah.
	Which we're putting on record right now and we'll say many times in the future episodes.
	But yeah, I want to go through that because I want people to understand, like I said, what is really coming in.
	What's really coming in is A health and human services director who is not a doctor.
	Yeah.
	Who is going to put doctors friendly to his vision in power.
	Yeah.
	And their view of things needs to be understood.
	Yeah.
	It needs to be played, clipped.
	Fact-checked and talked about.
	Yeah.
	Because I haven't heard anyone else doing this.
	Which is the whole reason we started this fucking show.
	Yeah.
	Because no one else was going after her bullshit.
	But her bullshit is now mainline conservatism.
	Yeah.
	And you know what kills me about this is most people on that side of the political aisle From the center-right people all the way to the extremists have no fucking clue what's coming.
	They may think they know, but they really don't.
	It's not just Project 2025 because no one, I mean, fucking no one, there is literally a Project 2025 drama podcast that Mark Hamill did an episode of.
	It's very good.
	It's literally called Trump's Project 2025.
	They got Mark Ruffalo for a couple of episodes.
	They got Mark Hamill.
	What it is, is this guy wrote a book, a fiction book, based entirely on shit you could find in Project 2025.
	They did a 12-episode series about it.
	Each episode was a chapter, and most of the chapters were like a normal person dealing with the administration up against a maggot.
	Yeah.
	You know, and, yeah, it was really well done.
	It was good, like, radio drama.
	But what they would do is, they'd do the episode, whatever it was.
	One of them was this kid who was in one of the detention camps.
	He figures out how to get out.
	Yeah.
	Now, the only thing that's waiting for him is the fucking desert.
	But it's better than where he is.
	Yeah.
	So he figures out how to leave.
	And then the next episode was a guard at that same prison camp had been secretly giving his grandmother good food.
	He'd hold food in his pocket and he'd give it to the old woman because he could tell she was sick and he was still kind of a human.
	But yeah, the guard winds up chasing him down.
	And then some shit happens and he lets the kid go.
	But, you know, it was this drama leading up to that point, like, is he just, he could just shoot this fucking kid.
	Yeah.
	And he just decides to, like, stay his hand and he tells the kid, just get the fuck out of here.
	He doesn't know how to tell him where to go.
	He doesn't know if the kid's got supplies stashed away.
	No fucking clue, but get out of here.
	Yeah.
	You know, and it's a series of really good stories, but what they did at the end of every episode was they talked about the exact parts of Project 2025.
	Where you could find the material that they used to write the episodes.
	It was really informative.
	And it was really fucking scary.
	Even those people.
	It was part of another podcast called the Bill Press Pod.
	Bill Press is an old newsman.
	He started up a podcast where he could talk politics with his friends.
	Pretty typical shit.
	Well, him, people that watch the courts, people that...
	Do this shit professionally for a living.
	Nobody saw Robert F. Kennedy Jr. taking over Health and Human Services.
	Nobody saw Matt Gaetz doing this.
	Tulsi Gabbard.
	Marco Rubio.
	Yeah.
	No one, everyone has been shocked.
	It's like fucking Game of Thrones, but with all the worst people introduced in the first episode.
	Yeah.
	It's like, oh my god.
	Yeah, of course, you know, Candace is just right there just the entire time, just balls deep on it.
	Just like, oh my god.
	So, you know, like I said, it's one thing where I've been looking at the material and I'm like, yes, she's being transphobic.
	She's being everything she is.
	That's not new right now.
	And I'm not concerned about her just gloating about all this shit, because what she doesn't realize, what she hasn't worked out, and what I think is going to really hit these people hard, maybe not her so much, because her husband's English, and if the shit happens in America that would affect their marriage,
	they can just fuck off to England.
	She can do her show in England, or wherever the fuck they want to move to, because they've got money.
	It hasn't come up.
	And I don't think it was in Project 2025.
	They would be insane, actually, to do this.
	But I have a feeling interracial marriages are part of the grand scheme.
	Oh, yeah.
	As in...
	The prevention.
	The prevention and the absolution of them.
	I believe that's a part of the grand scheme.
	Because...
	A lot of these people, you know, a lot of these supremacists, the white supremacists and the black supremacists and whatever other supremacy group you want to pick out, they don't really have problems with each other.
	They have problems with people that want to intermarry.
	Yeah.
	They have problems with society, you know, like they want a perfect society, and to their perfect society...
	Black people stay with black people in their own neighborhoods.
	White people have their neighborhoods.
	And so on.
	They don't want any kind of mixing.
	They want it to be from basically the 40s.
	Well, they want to go back further than that.
	20s?
	Yeah.
	Because one of them was quoted recently as saying, there was no income tax in the 1920s.
	Everything was paid for with tariffs.
	We should go back to that.
	These same people also want to get rid of the labor unions that happened.
	They want to dismantle the past hundred years of progress that everybody has made.
	Because they think the regression is going to be healthier than the expansion.
	Like Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, they want to get rid of 75% of federal expenses.
	Literally trillions of dollars.
	Part of that is cutting away Social Security.
	Not just stopping paying into it.
	Cutting off recipients.
	They want to get rid of people's Social Security payments.
	They want to get rid of Medicare and Medicaid.
	They want to get rid of the Affordable Care Act, which is also known as Obamacare.
	One of the funny things that has happened is when people are asked, do you want to get rid of Obamacare?
	They say yes.
	When they say, do you want to get rid of the Affordable Care Act?
	A lot of times they say no.
	So they just want to get rid of it because it's attached to Obama.
	Yeah.
	Because the things that are in it, the things that have benefited even our family, such as the pre-existing condition clause, insurers could deny people coverage, period.
	If they had any one of a thousand pre-existing conditions, one of those pre-existing conditions, no shit, was pregnancy.
	Yeah.
	If a woman had ever been pregnant, she could be denied care.
	But they wouldn't just tell people that.
	They would let people pay for years into insurance plans.
	Yeah.
	And then, you know, oh shit, I've got cancer.
	Let me call it my insurance.
	I'm about to hit my deductible, so they're going to have to take over.
	They made one of the Saw movies about this, actually.
	Really?
	Yeah.
	I think it's Saw 4. I'm not sure.
	Okay.
	But it turns out that Jigsaw had a cancer.
	Oh, yeah, yeah.
	Yeah, and so the people that get killed off in that one are like everybody that was on the board of that cancer company.
	It's great.
	Once you realize what's going on, it's like, oh, you're all the worst people.
	All right, once again, I'm on board with Jigsaw.
	Want to play a game?
	No, but motherfucker, I'll watch it.
	Yeah, so that's...
	But that's the thing that happens to that character is he's like, I've been paying you guys a lot of money for a long time.
	Like, why would you deny my coverage?
	And the guy's just like, it's just business, John.
	He's like, okay.
	You know, and he goes and does jigsaw shit.
	You know?
	Alright, let me turn all this money that I've been giving to you, Fox, and go make some gizmos.
	Yeah.
	So yeah, that's...
	It's like...
	That's one of the things where companies were getting away with that for decades.
	I knew somebody who worked in insurance forever that was one of those people that pressed the no button.
	Oh.
	Yeah.
	That was one of their jobs, was to go, no.
	That's fucked.
	Yeah.
	Well, especially considering how that person's spouse died.
	Mm-hmm.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, like, you know, and everything that happened in the years after that.
	Yeah.
	It's kind of like, oh, karma.
	Yeah.
	Karma doesn't always arrive where you think it will, but sometimes it's good.
	That's one of the things that people don't realize is that getting rid of the pre-existing conditions clause, getting rid of a lot of shit that people are familiar with since the Obama administration, well over 10 years now, or actually 8 years.
	It ended in 2016.
	People are familiar with all this shit.
	They don't realize that that's a huge linchpin for these guys.
	It's one of the reasons why companies didn't push back.
	Because the insurance companies weren't going to push back on Trump.
	He's saying all the right shit.
	His people literally produced a book saying all the right shit.
	Do you think the insurance companies and the lawyers of these other companies were like, Should we push back on this?
	Flip, flip, flip.
	No.
	Yeah.
	You know, like...
	And, yeah, like, they want to roll back so much crap.
	And I think the thing that's really going to affect people the most is the shit that Candace talks about in A Shot in the Dark.
	Because, like, what I want to do is, along with going through that series, Preface it with shit, or not preface, but mix it in with shit from the plan, which is Project 25. Mix it in with stuff from there and go,
	okay, look, this is what she was saying.
	This is what they wanted to do.
	Yeah.
	Because even if...
	I feel like shows like this one are now in the position of, alright, we were pushing for a better world.
	This bullshit happened.
	Yeah.
	100 million Americans voted against their own interests in a stunning victory across the board.
	You don't always win everything, but resistance is always possible, and the proper information can still get out there.
	Now, all of that said, and we've discussed this next part, if they start going after the media companies, Currently, we pay a pretty low nominal fee per month to our podcast provider.
	Yeah.
	Which gets us an unlimited bandwidth and unlimited hours of shows and shit like that every month.
	This is a pretty good deal.
	That said, I will continue to put these episodes, the main major episodes that we do, not this one maybe, I think I'll just put this one out to the web the same time I do the patrons.
	But, um, yeah.
	Yeah.
	I'll still continue to cut up the episodes just because people do like that in the bite-sized formats, but I'm no longer pushing for adverts.
	Because, for one thing, a lot of the shows that I've been listening to since this happened two weeks ago, these people have been running Ads, like, in the middle of sentences.
	Jesus.
	Like, ads are just getting slotted in.
	I swear I listened to the latest It Could Happen Here earlier today.
	It was about RFK Jr., somewhat, actually.
	And I swear, like, the first three minutes were ads.
	Jesus.
	And then they did another, like, three to five minutes of ads mid-episode.
	Now, they did talk about it, but then somewhere in the middle of the episode, another few ads went in.
	Mm-hmm.
	And then typically they'll run a few ads at the end of the episodes.
	Yeah.
	But their episode also just like got, like there was this hard cut.
	Like somebody was saying something and it just fucking blinked.
	Huh.
	Yeah.
	And I played it through another player.
	I was like, okay, well maybe it was Podcast Addict did that.
	No.
	No, just the episode was just fucked, yeah.
	Like them slotting in all the additional ads, they're kind of fucking up their shows a bit.
	Yeah.
	And there have been a lot more ads running for a lot longer on these shows.
	I have skipped through the Bartesian cocktail maker ad now more times than I can count.
	And it is a long fucking ad, let me tell you.
	Like, do you know what that is?
	I haven't clue what that is.
	It's basically a Keurig that makes cocktails.
	What kind of fucking drunk do you have to be to be so lazy as to having a Keurig machine to make your fucking cocktail?
	Yeah, I don't know much about it.
	It's not that hard to buy a mixer, get some vodka, and pour that shit into a blender with some ice and squeeze a little lime in there.
	Yeah, I don't know how it works.
	I have not looked at it one bit.
	I don't want to give them so much as an internet view, but I have skipped through that ad now more times than I can count over the last couple of weeks.
	Like I said, it's a long fucking ad, too.
	There's other long ads that I've been skipping through, but I'm like, man, this is fucking frustrating.
	I don't want to do this to people.
	As much as I would have liked the ad revenue, that's yet another money train that someone can follow with just a little bit of court paperwork.
	And I'm like, no, I like things as they are.
	We have a couple of great patrons, and thank you guys, as always.
	Yeah, of course.
	Even if we got more, even if we somehow wound up with a hundred more in the next week or so.
	I would do the shout-outs on their names, absolutely.
	But I'm not going to...
	I don't even want to take those payments until they're significant enough that I feel like, okay, maybe I contact an attorney to retain some services,
	just in case.
	But yeah, at the same time, what I keep...
	Kind of dancing around, not intentionally, is if they start cracking down on the media and they start going after podcasts, which I feel like these podcasts are running more ads to build up their war chest.
	Yeah.
	If they start going after people, what's going to happen is all of these episodes are going to disappear.
	Yeah.
	We're going to make an episode at that point that will serve as the only episode.
	And I will go so far as to...
	On our podcast provider, to which point people can just get it through that.
	Yeah. I mean, it'll still be uploaded to all the channels, but, you know, like Apple Podcasts will still get it and shit like that.
	But, yeah, that will be the only thing that exists of this show in the event that they actually start a media crackdown.
	Because...
	This was always something that I wanted to do for fun as a mental exercise with you.
	Yeah.
	And it has been a lot of fun doing it, despite all of the sheer stupidity.
	Yeah.
	Like fucking...
	Goddamn fucking...
	The thing, the thing, the satanic fucking space thing.
	Oh.
	Satanic...
	Oh, God.
	Yeah, that shit.
	No, my favorite episode still, honestly, is episode 19. Yeah.
	Bussard the Coward.
	Oh, yeah.
	That's still my favorite one.
	Or, 16, Dave Smith Duked Out.
	Two of my favorites.
	Just within a couple weeks of each other.
	Well, a couple weeks of each other on the show.
	I can't forget Tate getting arrested.
	Oh, God.
	So many times.
	So many times.
	But, yeah, they...
	That's all...
	You know, one of the things that keeps coming up among people that really just don't understand this is, and I'm sure our listeners have heard this from people in their own lives too, people that aren't as engaged with all this shit, saying,
	well, you know, people said all this bad stuff about Trump in his first term and he didn't get any of that shit accomplished because he had people that knew what they were doing.
	Yeah.
	Around him.
	He doesn't have that anymore.
	No.
	What this reminds me of is the original run of Star Wars.
	You know, episodes four through six.
	Yeah.
	New Hope, Jedi.
	All those.
	Yeah.
	Empire.
	Revenge of the Sith.
	No.
	Fuck you.
	It was a decent movie.
	It was fine.
	Revenge of the Sith makes up for Episode 2. I have always said that.
	What was the name of Episode 2 again?
	I forgot the title.
	You have been watching Clone Wars.
	I know I've been watching Clone Wars.
	It's literally Attack of the Clones.
	Yeah, Attack of the Clones.
	I mean, Attack of the Clones wasn't bad, but apparently it wasn't that memorable.
	Otherwise, I'd remember the fucking title.
	Attack of the Clones is the movie that I tell people...
	If you're sleepy, it'll put you out.
	It's the rhythmic blaster fire in the fucking gladiator scene that always just...
	I had to watch that movie like four times just to get through it.
	I don't even...
	That one?
	Okay, the thing that really sucked about that one was Mannequin Skywalker.
	Oh, yeah.
	Now, my favorite fan theory...
	About the movies.
	Is that the Empire has fallen.
	The Rebellion has taken over.
	And they're trying to figure out what the fuck happened.
	And the only thing they can trust is R2-D2.
	Who is telling them his version of events.
	Which is why C-3PO is so ineffective all the time.
	Why R2-D2 at one point...
	Fucking flies.
	Yeah.
	Commits several war crimes.
	It's like you've asked a child what their version of events was.
	And they're the main character.
	Yeah.
	At that point, okay, R2-D2 doesn't always know how humans emote.
	So if people are kind of wooden, it is fine.
	You know?
	Yeah.
	Like, okay.
	That's my favorite fan theory that I've ever read.
	I was like...
	That could make a lot of sense.
	Yeah.
	Particularly with how, like, in the new movies, it's all very action-y in Episode 7. Yeah.
	Because R2 doesn't really kind of, like, wake up until the end of the movie.
	R2's basically dementia-riddled until CP3 walks up to him, jacks in, and fixes him.
	Yeah.
	Like, everybody's like, yeah, we have R2 still, but he's just, his memory drives are corrupted.
	Yeah.
	And, you know, fucking CP30 walks up to him and goes, oh, hey there, old pal.
	Kicks into him and goes, okay, he's fixed.
	Yeah.
	What do you mean he's fixed?
	Well, I just cleared his databanks.
	You're telling us that was the problem?
	Did you fuckers not think to clear an old droid?
	How do we have...
	How do we have a society where droids exist everywhere and none of you thought of this?
	Yeah.
	It's like...
	How do you have a fucking droid whose body is literally a ball with a magnetic head, practically, that just rolls around?
	It's the Ex Machina.
	How do you fucking have that advanced piece of tech?
	Yeah.
	And yet you didn't think how you could fix an R2 droid?
	Look, honestly, I'm going to say that's the most realistic thing in Star Wars.
	Oh, fair enough, fair enough, yeah.
	Have you met people that don't know their way around a computer, which is a lot of people?
	Sadly, yes.
	Yeah.
	Now see, me and other Linux people, and people who know way more than I do.
	Yeah.
	We look at computers differently.
	Even if we're having to mess with Windows, we look at computers differently and we go, alright, let me open this thing up.
	When's the last time updates were done?
	There's a process that we start doing.
	Whereas other people who don't really fuck with Linux that are just Windows-focused, they don't always have the same mindset.
	They don't have the back-to-basics mindset that you have to have when you're fucking with Linux stuff.
	To troubleshoot your own problems.
	Even when I only fucked with Linux for a little bit there, but my current laptop, when it starts having problems, I pretty much go, okay, let's go to Task Manager,
	shut everything but Essentials down.
	Now let all that shut down.
	Let's see if it needs an update.
	No.
	Okay.
	Take a look at this.
	Take a look at that.
	Okay, that's the problem.
	Right.
	Or, if I'm feeling angry enough, and even with tech at every job I've had at, that everybody looks at me like I'm batshit crazy because I do two things to it.
	One, I very gently talk to it.
	Yeah.
	Like, when I worked at the deli, we had an oven.
	Just act up all the fucking time.
	Yeah.
	Well, it had a bad fan in the back, and I kept telling them, hey, get the replacement parts.
	Yeah.
	I've kind of figured out how to fix it.
	And they're like, well, do you know?
	I was like, no, but I'm pretty sure I can look up a YouTube video on this model.
	Watch it a couple times and go, alright, that's what I need to do.
	And they refused to do it until finally one day it burst.
	Well, it was sitting there and it just started doing a sound.
	And I'm like, don't die on me, please, today.
	And I just started petting the side of it and it stopped.
	And it was fine.
	And they're like, what did you just do?
	I said, I don't know, but it's somebody else's problem tomorrow, probably.
	And then there's other times where, like, it would start to make that sound or even, like, various computers I've had in my possession start to do weird fucky shit or start to slow down.
	And I'd just go, hey, no, fucking stop that and just strike it.
	And it just starts working again.
	And they're like, don't do that.
	And they're like...
	It's working.
	You can't argue with the results, motherfucker.
	Yeah.
	Like, my old phone, it would sit there and it would slow as shit near the end there and I'm just like, you know what?
	Hey, it's working again.
	Well, like, one of the things, what I was getting to with this whole Star Wars thing was, episodes four through six, they exist as they were because There were people that understood film, even students that understood film better than George Lucas,
	who were like, they would sit and listen to him and go, we shouldn't do that.
	Yeah.
	We shouldn't do that and I can tell you why.
	You know, like the original sketches for Chewbacca are nightmarish.
	Yeah.
	You know, there's other things too where people were like, George was great to work with because he actually listened to us.
	Fast forward a couple generations of people.
	And George Lucas starts making episode one.
	All the old people have quit, gone on to other projects, whatever.
	They're not part of Lucasfilm anymore.
	And this happened with Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull as well.
	There was no one around to tell him no.
	Because everyone that was working on it was a fan.
	And they respected and worshipped George Lucas.
	And they weren't given the...
	The previous mentorship of, look, you need to know when to go no.
	Yeah, you need to know when to tell him no.
	That said, I've never heard that Lucas was any kind of asshole to work for.
	I've always heard great things about people who have worked with him.
	It's just that he's great, but man, you've got to know when to tell him no.
	Yeah.
	And a lot of people, especially, they're new into that business or whatever.
	They've been lifelong fans and they've signed the pile of papers you have to sign to work on something like that.
	And then they get in there and they're like, oh, okay.
	They want to go with the vision because they don't understand that sometimes the visionaries need a talking to.
	That's kind of the problem right now.
	Trump not only had his four years.
	To accomplish 60% of his goals, which he did.
	They also saw the pushback that happened among his own and that happened among the Democrats when he didn't have a majority in the House or the Senate.
	That kind of flipped.
	The House wound up in Republican hands for a while.
	But the Senate was always there to fight back and to just be like, whatever crazy bullshit the House produces, we just say no.
	You know, we're just saying no, fuck off.
	You know, well, you fast forward to now.
	Yeah.
	He has the Supreme Court, which he had prior to leaving office.
	He has the Supreme Court in his favor.
	He has the Senate.
	He has the House.
	He has the support of police unions.
	Yeah.
	You know, like, and he's got a crowd of syncopats.
	He knows, like, One of the things they want to do on day one is start a military purge.
	Okay.
	As in getting rid of the generals who would have not gone with his shit.
	Ah.
	The known people in the military that would have said no.
	Yeah.
	Or that have outright spoken out against him.
	Yeah.
	So yeah, they want to do a military purge and they want to start the mass deportations on day one.
	And he's got a crowd of people around him that are pushing for it.
	Everyone that voted for him.
	Like I said, a lot of them might not have realized what they were voting for.
	I certainly think that's the case with Latinos for Trump.
	They didn't quite get the memo.
	And now they're going to be like, oh boy.
	But I...
	I don't think there's going to be a lot of pushback.
	And people have said, oh, well, you know, the military and the police, they won't go for that.
	It's like, no, what you don't understand is people said the same thing about the Germans and the Italians and the Spanish.
	And the Japanese.
	Yeah, and any of these modern-day areas like Turkey or Hungary or...
	Fuck me, there was another one, but yeah, they've...
	They've said all that about these places without realizing that, yeah, there's a certain amount of the police and the military that are absolutely on board with these tyrants.
	That not only voted for them, but are actively looking forward to busting people's heads open.
	Yeah, the gung-ho guys that got in because they wanted to be that gung-ho, badass guy.
	They wanted to be the guy from the movies who doesn't have to answer to anybody.
	Or, worse, they wanted to be the dude from the movies that not only doesn't answer to anybody, but the people that he answers to give him shit.
	Like, here's your commendation and your pay raise.
	There's also, there's a lot of people that didn't make it into the military or the police that want to.
	So, you know, so what if you've got like a hundred cops that go, no, we're not doing this, and they hang up their badges.
	There's a thousand that want to be deputized tomorrow that would do it for free.
	Yeah.
	You know, that was, I think that was one of the more real things they did in, I think it was Wolfenstein Youngblood when they were in America.
	Yeah.
	And there's a little section in there where some of your enemies are Klansmen.
	Oh, it wasn't Youngblood.
	Oh, it was number two, right?
	Yeah, Wolfenstein.
	I know that one.
	Two of the New Colossus.
	Yeah.
	When you're going through America and you're trying to...
	I think you're trying to get to wherever Adolf Hitler is.
	Oh, I don't...
	No, Hitler's on Venus.
	Oh, right, yeah.
	Which sounds like the most conspiratorial thing to say out of context.
	It works in the game, folks.
	Trust me.
	But when you're going through America in that section...
	More to the point.
	Hitler's in Cloud City on Venus.
	That's risky.
	It's in the game.
	When you're going through America, I remember that segment where you...
	You're kind of like walking past and he's dressed up like a firefighter and he's got the fire hydrant thing.
	You're trying to get to the cafe that's got the American rebels.
	And on your way there, you brush shoulders with one of the Nazi officers who stops the Klansman and goes, how are your German lessons going?
	And they're like, oh, it's going real well, sir.
	He's like, alright.
	Well, how do you say thank you in German?
	The guy's like, uh, donkey, donk.
	He's like, oh, God, you are butchering my beautiful language.
	Shut up before I shoot you.
	And it's like, Jesus Christ, even the Nazis don't like the Klansmen.
	You do get to shoot a few of them.
	Oh, you do?
	Yeah, it's great.
	That level's great.
	It's one of the best levels ever.
	I have to relaunch it on you.
	They're holding a double-barrel shotgun.
	You get that weapon.
	It's awesome.
	God, they don't realize that a lot of those people still exist.
	One of the things that has shocked people, when I've talked to them about the podcast and shit in person, and I've said that to them, What do you know about David Duke?
	And a lot of people, a lot of people my generation or older are very quick with, oh, he was a Klansman, right?
	I'm like, yeah, but do you know this?
	And I take them through the very brief amount of stuff that we talked about on episode 16. Like, when David Duke ran the Klan, he pushed for them to get rid of robes, take on suits, stop going after Catholics and blacks,
	And focus primarily on Jews.
	And they're like, what?
	I said, yeah.
	And he went on to become a senator in Louisiana.
	That makes sense.
	And they're like, what the fuck?
	And usually the more politically engaged ones, I can ask them like, do you know about Nick Fuentes?
	Oh yeah, he's an angry little Nazi shit.
	He's a white supremacist.
	When he has a rally and David Duke is nearby, Duke joins the rally.
	And they're like, what the fuck?
	Look, I don't make this shit up.
	It's on my show.
	I had to go research it.
	That's how I know it.
	They're like, oh my god.
	Yeah.
	They just...
	People don't realize how all of these shitbags are connected.
	It kills me because now, like I said, now we're looking at a lot of these people.
	There are 16 cabinet positions for Trump to fill.
	He's already put terrible people in half of these positions already, or at least a third of them.
	Yeah. Now that said, there's been such a pushback on Matt Gaetz.
	that he might not get in.
	Now, the problem with that is if his thing is released, he either might not get in or he will only get in because the Senate goes around the processes that it has set up to just push him through.
	But, that all said, There's no way that Trump's main guy, who's known as Stephen Miller, there's no way that Stephen Miller doesn't have a backup that's just as terrible.
	Because what they really want for the Attorney General to do is to just say yes.
	Trump had two Attorney Generals in his first term.
	And they both said yes a lot, but they also both said no a lot more.
	That's why a lot of his shit didn't go through.
	They need yes-mans the entire way.
	They need fanboys.
	Guys who not only say yes, but are eager to do so.
	That's what they want.
	And you can bet that if Matt Gaetz doesn't work out, there's somebody just like him who's already raring to go.
	Who they've already contacted and said, hey, if Gates doesn't work out, or even ahead of time, if he says no, do you want in?
	Are you our guy?
	They've got so many people, you could get three or four deep and just be like, alright, that one said no, that one said no.
	Okay.
	It's like fucking Hollywood casting to these people.
	All I've got to hope for is...
	Which is a big hope is that, you know, somebody will go and yes-man their way into the position and just go, oh yeah, yeah, I'll say yes 100% of the time and then just sit back and go, no.
	I know I said I'd say yes going into this, but this is crazier than I fucking thought, no.
	Yeah, well, one of the people that Candace has been pushing for to get a job in the administration is, of course, her boy Thomas Massey.
	She desperately wants him to be Secretary of Agriculture because she firmly and fully believes that he will stop subsidies to American farmers.
	What none of these people realize, what none of them seem to realize, and I believe it's for a reason, I don't like conspiracies.
	I really don't.
	So I'm not pushing this as one.
	It's just my take on it.
	I believe they want to send all the undocumented migrants away.
	A lot of whom work in farming jobs.
	A lot of whom work in cleaning jobs.
	Like Target, for example.
	There's a few targets that I'm in on a regular basis with Shipt that the cleaning crews are all Mexican.
	Yeah, same thing at most salons and Byerly's around here too.
	Oh yeah, the people that come in near the night, yeah.
	Well the target cleaning crew people are there frequently throughout the day, up to maybe 4 or 5 o 'clock.
	But there's at least a couple of target stores that I'm in on a regular where most of the Most of the grocery crew now are Mexicans.
	And, you know, it's totally fine.
	They are making huge attempts to learn English.
	I've had to ask a couple of them a couple of things before.
	Like, one of the girls, she put her finger up because I was asking her where something was and she's like...
	She pulls out her phone.
	She pops in Google Translate.
	She hits the microphone and I instantly said whatever it was.
	She looked at it and she's like, oh.
	She was mouthing it out and then she's like, come.
	She took me to the thing.
	Once she knew where it was, I wanted her to just scan a shelf label.
	You know, like, do you have this in the back room?
	And so we went over to it and she scanned it with her device and she's like, and she spoke into it and she, like, she read it and then showed it to me and it was like, hang on, I'll go get that for you.
	Yeah.
	You know, but when she came back, she was like, she apologized.
	She had the apology worked out.
	Yeah.
	So she apologized.
	She's like, I'm sorry, I'm still learning English.
	Yeah.
	And I was like, that's fine.
	That's fine.
	Back at one of the retail jobs, we had delivery drivers that would come in.
	There was a spot for them to go to.
	And our job gave us these sheets.
	That were primarily in Spanish.
	Okay.
	Which, I mean, granted, while most of the DoorDash drivers up here are primarily Spanish speakers.
	Or Somalis, yeah.
	Yeah.
	Problem you run into is most Somalis and the other 40% of the workers don't speak like a Spanish.
	Right.
	So when you present them with the sheet of paper, if you yourself cannot, you know, read it to them.
	Yeah.
	Lord help me, unless I'm going out of my way to learn Spanish, I know I'm going to fuck it up.
	Right.
	You pass over the sheet so that way they can read it.
	Most of the time, if they don't speak it, they just kind of look at it, look at you, and they're just like...
	Yeah.
	Like, what is this?
	Yeah.
	And when they are Spanish speakers, it feels very rude to go, oh, and then hand them a piece of paper.
	It's like, oh, hang on a second, you don't speak English.
	Go fuck yourself.
	Hold on.
	I'm sorry.
	I'm so white.
	I have to show you this white paper with black words on it.
	Yeah.
	So, most of the time, like...
	Hand signals are not a hard thing to learn.
	Yeah.
	Most of the people at that job didn't seem to want to learn them.
	And then you have the older folks who still, for some reason, think that...
	People from other countries have a hearing problem, not a language problem.
	And we'll just, you know, go, it's around the corner.
	And it's like, shouting at them is not helping any.
	You can exaggerate your words if you think they're reading your lips.
	You can exaggerate your words without raising your volume.
	And most of the time, I won't even bother like...
	Doing anything with the lips.
	I just give them the hand signs of that direction, around the corner, car.
	When you get there, there's a phone number to call.
	And most of the time, they're real thankful about it.
	Or if they just plainly don't understand me, they'll either go, you know, no, I'll bless.
	No habla inglés or whatever their country's variation of it is.
	They'll tell me they don't speak English.
	I'll go, one second, pull out the phone, speak into Google Translate with the English and pass it over to them and they know how to put it to the right language if it's not Spanish.
	And they'll be on their merry way.
	Or if I don't have the time to do...
	The signs, I will just go one second, speak into it, pass the phone over, and let them go, okay, and then let them be on their way.
	Yeah, I mean, that's...
	I was at the mall once, hanging out with a friend, and DoorDash driver was looking for a store.
	Yeah.
	I'm sure you didn't know the frustrations of trying to deliver to a store inside a mall you've never been in.
	Oh, yeah.
	And so they were looking for something and they stopped us because we were the only two people to not just look past them.
	And we looked at them and they marched over to us with groceries in hand and gave us their phone.
	They just went, I'm looking for this store.
	And we looked at it.
	I think it was Sephora or some shit like that.
	And it was just like...
	Oh, that's on the second floor.
	Thankfully, there was one of those map kiosks.
	I love those things.
	It's right down there, and they didn't understand me.
	I was like, hang on a second.
	Took them over to the thing, flipped it over to Spanish, punched in Sephora, and just went, here you go.
	They looked at it.
	They looked at the kiosk.
	And they're just like, thank you, and went on their way.
	And it's like, see, that wasn't too hard.
	It took two minutes.
	And that's one of the things, that's one of the big problems, that a lot of these chuckle fucks just don't have that kind of patience.
	Like, you know, they seem to...
	What I was getting around to was they think they're going to be fine with getting rid of people that handle all of this essential work.
	Farm labor is skilled labor.
	I don't know why they call it unskilled labor.
	It is not.
	Farm labor is skilled labor.
	Especially when you're talking about people that literally are choosing what strawberries are coming off those plants.
	Is that thing a weed?
	Do I have to pull it for this plant to be better?
	A lot of them could probably do really well on horticultural classes and stuff.
	If that's what they want to do with their lives.
	Farm labor is skilled labor.
	Everything I've ever seen any of these people do is skilled labor.
	Cleaning houses for a living is skilled labor, especially if you're going and cleaning stuff that people aren't normally thinking about.
	Yeah.
	You know, that's affecting their health.
	Yeah.
	Like, I mean, the people that clean, you know, the ones in Byerly stores and Target and everything.
	They're doing skilled work.
	I guarantee you, a lot of them, if they're running a floor buffer or something like that, they know the ins and outs of that device better than anyone in management does.
	Yeah.
	you know, like, so you've got all these people doing all this shit, but what happens when, you know, you start deporting people and the easiest people to deport are the ones who are
	working at the farms.
	Yeah. They go first.
	All right.
	So what's the end result of that?
	farm doesn't get to produce as much stuff.
	Yeah. Also, you've cut the farm subsidies.
	So if they're having a bad year due to whatever reason,
	Yeah. Which there's, you know, an umpteen number of them.
	Yeah.
	Anywhere from...
	Well, one of the things that RFK wants to get rid of is pesticides.
	Oh, well, yeah, that's going to up the...
	So, you get rid of the pesticides.
	Now you have less crop yield.
	Yeah.
	He wants to get rid of the pesticides, and there was another thing, too.
	But now you have less...
	Oh, fertilizer.
	That was it.
	Oh.
	So, not as healthy ground, less crop yields.
	Less crop yields.
	Less people working the crop yields.
	Because you've just sent them back to wherever they came from originally.
	Even if, and this is the fucky thing, even if they were born here, but their parents came from overseas and they had them here as what they call an anchor baby.
	Yeah.
	Now you've sent all these people away.
	Yeah.
	You have no fertilizer, you have no pesticide, you have less crop yields, and you have no farm subsidy.
	Yeah.
	So what does that do?
	Well, an independent farmer can't exist like that forever.
	No.
	They're going to lose everything, which allows a big farm company to come in.
	Yeah.
	And they'll either pay the fines...
	Or, you know, they'll just absorb that into their overall system.
	So it's a very corporate-friendly thing to do that.
	But also, you know, so you've got all these farms producing less shit.
	That raises the cost of the groceries.
	Yeah.
	You know, now it's going to cost so much more for that tomato to get from the farm to you, even if it's in your fucking state.
	Yeah.
	You know, so, yeah, so all of that happening, plus, like I said, getting rid of, like, People that work in cleaning jobs, in fucking stores, and the maids that work in high-end hotels, or even low-end hotels for that matter.
	It'll be entertaining to see all the rich chuckle fucks, though, fall a little under the weather, at least for a while there, when their maids are sent away.
	Well, that's the other thing, too.
	So you've got all of these people being ejected.
	Those positions are not going to get filled overnight with people that are especially Americans willing to take that kind of job.
	Willing to do that kind of work for that kind of money.
	Well, that brings on another thing.
	They've wanted to get rid of minimum wage since it was established.
	That's the only way they're going to pull all this off.
	Is to get rid of minimum wage.
	They also want to get rid of the income taxes.
	They want to get rid of the IRS.
	Yeah.
	Like, people don't understand how long these people have been drooling about this shit.
	They just don't get it.
	And it's hard to talk with people as this shit is coming up because it's like...
	There's been this mountain of information that people willingly remained ignorant about.
	It sucks.
	It sucks because people don't realize the cascading effect of this stuff.
	A lot of restaurants, not just ethnic food, not just our favorite taco joints, but Regular American food restaurants being able to survive.
	No, I mean, Pete's sake, even the fast food fucking restaurants.
	Oh, that's another thing.
	Like, a heavy amount of them have been, you know, staffed by these sorts of workers.
	I mean, Pete's sake, go into any Culver's up here up north.
	Yeah.
	And you're going to see half the crew.
	At least.
	Yeah, at least.
	And the thing is, too...
	The whitest Culver's I've ever been in was in Wisconsin.
	Yeah.
	That's where the company started, so that's not a big shock.
	But also, it was their location off the highway out in the middle of bumfuck nowhere.
	Yeah.
	So it made sense that the only people behind the counters...
	It was also one of the least staffed locations.
	Makes sense that all of the people behind the counter are white.
	Yeah.
	Because we're out in the middle of bumfuck nowhere, and these are just the farmer boys who are off this season.
	Right.
	You know, and that's...
	Well, that's the thing, though.
	If regular people are going to be feeling not just a pinch, but a fucking grab.
	A grab on their tits, male, female, or other.
	If they're feeling that in the grocery stores, the restaurants...
	that rely on much cheaper food because they're buying it in bulk are going to be really fucked.
	People don't realize how our restaurant industry grew and what keeps it afloat.
	One of the things that kept it afloat in Florida for the longest time was businesses being able to pay people way under the minimum wage.
	You know, servers and bartenders.
	I mean, I admittedly, I made like fucking 70, 80k a year because I worked constantly.
	Yeah.
	Because I was making $2.15 an hour.
	Like, I had to get those tips.
	I had to get that money.
	I had to be a shark in my restaurants.
	You know, like I've said before, I would go in like...
	On even days I was supposedly scheduled off, I'd go into work in uniform and just sit at the bar and wait.
	Yeah.
	And anybody that walked in, that clocked in, that saw me, that wanted to go home, they were on me quick.
	Like, hey, what are you doing here?
	Well, I'm not on the clock yet.
	Mm-hmm.
	Yeah.
	Do you want to leave?
	Yeah.
	All right, let's go talk to David.
	Yeah.
	And we'd show up in the manager's office, and as soon as he saw them with me behind them, he'd be like, Oh, hell.
	Really?
	After the third time, it just became like a thing.
	People knew.
	If they walked in and they weren't feeling it, they'd check the bar.
	And if it was me or there were a couple other guys that got smart and started doing it too, if they saw any one of us, they'd be like, hey, you want to make this happen?
	All right, let's go talk to the manager.
	Let's get them to switch it up.
	But people don't realize.
	How much of the restaurant industry relies on these low payment systems?
	If it's not to the workers, then it's to the suppliers.
	Yeah.
	And they're going to get a crash course in how the economy has been functioning over the last several decades.
	Like, shit the processes that are older than me.
	Yeah.
	They're going to find out hard how fucked they are right now.
	Yeah.
	And, you know, that's one of the things Elon, you know, Vivek, I don't think has been as vocal about everything, but Elon cannot stop running his mouth.
	Oh, yeah, no.
	And he said before the election, like, and I think he felt comfortable saying it because, you know, a lot of people waited until election day to vote.
	Yeah. But a lot of people did mail-in voting or early voting as soon as it was available.
	Yeah. I don't think they had any of the numbers at the time.
	I'm not going to cast dispersions that way.
	But he felt comfortable enough saying that the first two years of Trump's new administration are going to be terrible.
	Like, I'm paraphrasing here, but he said, you know, the first two years are going to be pretty terrible, but it's going to get better after that.
	That's not reassuring.
	It's not.
	Two shit years that aren't necessary.
	Now, that is a statement from a man who has never come through on a deadline.
	Fair enough.
	He has never come through on a deadline for anything.
	And the only time that he did come through on a deadline, it was a major fucking catastrophe.
	Which one?
	I feel like his Cybertruck was maybe the closest deadline.
	No.
	People waited years for that.
	Okay.
	The Tesla cars?
	No.
	Not the robots.
	People were on the waiting list for Tesla cars for like two or three years.
	Okay.
	Like for the affordable...
	The affordable basic bitch Teslas.
	Yeah.
	People were on waiting lists for those for a couple of years.
	People were on waiting lists for the Cybertruck for nearly five years.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	They...
	Oh, God.
	There's another thing with the Cybertrucks.
	I don't know if I told you about this one yet.
	I told you about how the main headlight can ice over, right?
	Oh, yeah.
	And you told me about the shelf, too.
	Yeah.
	Recessed headlights.
	Also, people lacerating themselves when trying to clean it.
	Yeah.
	Because you can't take it through a car wash, and they're like, I'll hand wash it.
	And then getting cut on the panels that aren't stuck together on the fucking car.
	Yeah.
	Oh, my God.
	The Cyberstuck forum on Reddit is...
	A mountain of just fuckery.
	I feel like the funniest conversion of a Cybertruck that I've seen.
	And basically, a guy wanted to make a Warthog from Halo.
	Yeah.
	He wanted to make a Halo Warthog.
	So he bought a Cybertruck.
	He went through the whole process.
	Yeah.
	And then essentially...
	He replaced the outer panels, made it safe to fit the model mold that he was doing, and then mounted a fucking gun to the top of it.
	And it's like, okay, that's all well and good, but we're not going to skip past the safety modifications you made on this thing while you were tearing it apart, painting the panels the right shade of green, reattaching the panels.
	Well, the real fucked thing about the Cybertrucks, too, is Outside of some very small modifications, almost anything you do voids a warranty.
	Here's one of my favorite ones, is fog lights.
	Okay, Tesla does sell a fog light kit, and you have to order it through a Tesla dealership.
	When they come in, they can put them on the vehicle.
	But they can't wire them legally.
	What?
	Yeah.
	Because it's not rated for that.
	You have to go somewhere else or have know-how to wire them into your car.
	Yeah.
	People have made videos about this.
	One of the other things, too, was they showed how...
	Like, they can't even, like, the Tesla techs can't even, like, take, like, the film off the lamps.
	So, like, you have to do it and it doesn't come off in one clean strip.
	God.
	People were, like, they'd get to it and, like, it would rip in half and then, like, they'd try to, like, get it back up to peel.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, the whole thing is a fucking boondoggle.
	God.
	Tesla salesman, though.
	Yeah.
	There's a really good chance that if you go to a Tesla dealership and you talk to a salesman and you come back the next week and you look for that same guy, he's quit.
	Jesus.
	They only pay them $25 an hour.
	There is no bonus for making sales.
	Fucking hell.
	You can bet the salesmen are the first ones that hear about any problems because people go, my car did this or it doesn't do that.
	They're like, hold on, I'll put you through the service.
	Fuck.
	If I had a good amount of money, I would go talk myself into a job at a Tesla dealership just to sit there and quietly tell people, don't do this.
	I would try to be the librarian from Bob's Burgers.
	Oh, yeah.
	Oh, yeah, these cars are great.
	Don't buy one.
	What?
	What's that?
	You want to get the upgraded package?
	Don't do it, I swear to God.
	Yeah.
	See, like, my brain just went, well, hang on.
	They're making $25 an hour.
	Yeah.
	They're not by commission, right?
	No.
	Okay.
	So, what you do is, is you just be the laziest fucking salesman.
	Yeah.
	And when your boss goes, what the actual fuck?
	Hang on now.
	Fuck you.
	Yeah.
	What do you mean?
	I'm not making by commission.
	I can walk.
	And then you can be short-staffed again.
	Or I can stay sitting here on my desk and just relax and wait for somebody who's truly dedicated to Elon Tusk to come on in.
	And when they go, hey, I want to buy a Tesla, I'll sit him down and I'll run him through the paperwork.
	And I'll keep my mouth shut and I will not tell them about my Nissan that's parked out there.
	Alright?
	Just let me stay here and let me vibe, alright?
	And I'm fairly certain I'd get fired.
	But it would be worth it.
	It would be worth it to be running a camera.
	I'm like, oh yeah, you're going to fire me?
	Well, say hi to TikTok, motherfucker.
	You ruin the vibe, you get the time.
	This is Minnesota, bitch.
	I don't have to listen to you.
	I'm allowed to do this.
	You should learn the law.
	By the way, you've got to pay me.
	I'll be back for my paycheck.
	That's not a threat.
	I really would like to get paid.
	Look, I'll show up naked to prove to you I don't have a weapon.
	I figure it this way.
	If you're not...
	If they don't pay you extra for sales...
	Not a dime.
	I know that because one of the other ship shoppers that I interface with on a regular, her son was a Tesla salesman.
	Yeah.
	And the fucky thing was that they were told if they sold so many cars, they would get a bonus.
	But that bonus...
	He hit...
	He doubled it.
	Okay.
	Whatever the amount was, dude doubled it.
	And then, like, they got a memo.
	Like, all the dealerships got a memo.
	It wasn't just theirs.
	All the dealerships got a memo that all the bonuses would be put on hold.
	That's fucked.
	Yeah.
	It was just before Christmas.
	He knew he was getting that five grand.
	He was just head and tails above everybody.
	Yeah.
	Like, I've been that guy before.
	Yeah.
	You know, we're like...
	At one of my Starbucks stores, they would run contests.
	They would run sales contests with other stores in the region.
	And my general manager found out early on that I was his secret weapon for that.
	Because I'd be like, what are we moving?
	And he'd tell me, and be like, alright, I'll figure it out.
	Don't ask any questions.
	It'll look good on paper.
	I'll figure it out, Steve.
	And I would.
	It'd take me like, you know, a few minutes, but I'd usually, once I got the hang of it, I could move anything he wanted.
	Yeah.
	And the other store managers, he went away for like a week to something in like another state with the company.
	And so the big thing at the time was selling the salted mocha.
	Yeah.
	Or salted, yeah, whatever it was, a hot chocolate thing.
	Yeah.
	I looked at the sales figures for how many mochas we moved any given week, and I was like, hey guys, I know how we can kill this.
	And the team was like, alright, what's your idea?
	I was like, well, how about we all sacrifice our one pound of coffee a week that we get.
	We all sacrifice it as espresso.
	Okay.
	They're like, alright.
	I said, hear me out.
	We sacrifice our pound of coffees.
	All of us.
	All 20 of us here.
	Every customer that comes in that wants to order a mocha, we tell them, I could do that, or I can ring you up for the new hot chocolate with free espresso in it.
	It will actually cost you less.
	It will cost you like a buck, buck fifty less.
	Yeah.
	I think four customers said no to that?
	Yeah.
	We sold hundreds!
	We sold fucking hundreds within a few days.
	I was part of the first shift and we told the second and third shifts how to do it.
	Everybody agreed.
	Let's get this bonus.
	Let's get our manager, who we all like, his bonus.
	He came through and he helped everybody out.
	That was cool.
	Within a week, he was showing them.
	All these guys had access to the numbers.
	They're all like...
	How did your team move a thousand of these in seven days?
	He's like, I have a secret weapon.
	I can't tell you about it.
	And then when he came back, he's like, it was you, wasn't it?
	I was like, yes, sir.
	He goes, all right, I'll take care of you.
	So he did.
	Once they figured out that I could do shit like that, I was getting 40 hours a week.
	Period.
	Like I said, I have been that guy.
	I understand his frustration.
	Especially if, like, you know, like I said, people are coming in.
	Man comes on the lot to buy.
	Yeah.
	You just have to walk up and be like, which one do you like?
	Yeah.
	You know?
	Let's talk some numbers.
	What can you afford?
	Yeah.
	Then it's just, it's a simple fucking process.
	You know?
	But, yeah, like, and he had gone through the, he had gone, they told me he had gone through, like, the procedure of learning everything he could about the cars.
	And...
	They used to give their salespeople discounts.
	They didn't even give them a discount to buy a fucking Tesla.
	So aside from just having the $25 an hour paycheck, there's no reason to go work for them.
	There's no reason, yeah.
	Because there was no discount, or if there was, it was like $1,000 off or something.
	Like something local.
	That's bullshit on a fucking vehicle that expensive.
	Yeah, it's very lowball.
	There was no...
	If they bought a Tesla, they weren't going to get cheaper Tesla rates for charging anywhere.
	There was seriously no incentive to keep that job and sell those cars, aside from...
	And they were all part-timers.
	Part-time at $25 an hour, maximum 20 hours a week.
	Yeah.
	But you're not in control of your schedule.
	See, if I'm not going to be in control of my schedule, I want to be full-time.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Because, like, I had told last retail job, you know, I was sitting there in the office, and I'm like, okay, I'm part-time right now, but I want to be full-time.
	What does that mean I'm sacrificing?
	Right.
	And they're like, well, you know...
	If you go full-time, you'll be...
	Yeah, I know what full-time means.
	What am I losing here?
	What chunk of my soul are you taking from me?
	And they're like, well, you know how you've requested Sundays and Saturdays off?
	It's like, okay, so you all want my weekends?
	And they're like, yes, because we need more workers.
	Okay.
	Can I get reduced hours or days off with...
	In the weekdays.
	Like, what are the lowest days that we don't need people here?
	And I'm like, well, Mondays and Wednesdays.
	Okay.
	I will let you guys have my weekends.
	Take my Mondays and my Wednesdays.
	I don't care how you schedule me the rest of the week.
	Yeah.
	And they're like, really?
	I was like, yeah.
	And fuck it.
	If you need me to work on a Monday or Wednesday, go right on ahead.
	Just please, for Wednesdays, keep it to the mornings.
	I like to have my Wednesday evenings.
	And they're like, okay.
	We can work with that.
	And now, you know, sitting there, when I was there, they had me sitting at what they referred to as modified part-time, which was basically like two hours under full-time.
	Yeah.
	Which I'm just like...
	Y 'all are keeping me at that sweet under two hours, and I understand it's corporate regulation, but just give me the full-time position already.
	That's one of the many things.
	They want to change a lot of labor laws.
	One of the ones that they want to change is how overtime is figured.
	Okay.
	Yeah.
	As it is in most states, California is an exception.
	In California, anything, at least this was what I knew from several years ago, if you work over eight hours a day in California, that time immediately after that eight hour mark is OT.
	Okay.
	On a daily.
	Oh.
	So, a lot of California, you know, employers are aware of this.
	They try to avoid that ever happening.
	Yeah.
	Most of the country, you score 40 hours, and now anything over that is your overtime.
	What they want to do is they want to increase it in a way so that an employer can work you basically up to 80 hours a week without having to pay you a dime of overtime.
	Because, let's say they get that 80 hours for that one week out of you, they don't have to schedule you the next week.
	They want to be able to have that kind of leeway and more.
	They want to replace unions with employee action committees which have no teeth to do any kind of strikes or anything.
	They want to defang and declaw beasts.
	They want to do a fascism.
	I think this time This time with fascism, it's going to have a different flavor than it did in Germany and Italy and Spain and everywhere else.
	It's going to have a different flavor because, for one thing, America's got a lot more people than any of those countries had combined.
	Yeah.
	Not only do we have more people, we have more land mass.
	And we're like 100 years into progressive politics that they didn't have back when they were running a Nazi rally in Madison Square Garden in 1939 or whatever the fuck.
	So, they have to work with all of that.
	They have to work with the society that is to make it the society that they think they want.
	And what kills me is that they're too dumb to realize the society they want Never existed.
	No.
	That was a world best scene on Nick at Night.
	I think the movie that does it the best is Welcome to Pleasantville.
	You know, where fucking Spider-Man winds up in, you know, his favorite TV show from, you know, Nick at Night television reruns.
	Yeah.
	A show that never existed, which is appropriate.
	Yeah.
	He winds up there and it starts changing.
	It starts changing because him and his sister have brought the new world in.
	The actual world in.
	It starts colorizing.
	It goes from black and white to colorizing.
	All this drama occurs that was never in the original show.
	They don't realize that they want that static pleasant Bill Lane.
	Isn't that what happened in WandaVision?
	Kinda.
	It starts out in black and white.
	I know that they're...
	It rolls forward because it's her dealing with the grief of losing Vision, but also all of the shows, they kind of let it out mid-season.
	We're getting a WandaVision season 2, by the way.
	I didn't think that would be possible.
	It's going to be Vision.
	Oh, okay.
	I thought he was just getting his own show.
	I knew that they were bringing him.
	Yeah, he is getting his own show, but it's going to be basically WandaVision 2. Okay, okay.
	But anyway, that's all I don't know about it.
	But anyway, they kind of said, you know, midway through there that she was working through all of this grief based on, like, all of these shows that her family used to watch when they were trying to deal with the fact that there was a civil war going on in their country they could do nothing about.
	So they watched all these old American TV shows.
	That's why one of the shows is Malcolm in the Middle.
	Yeah. And Full House and stuff like that.
	That's what it's based on is all of those shows that her family was using to cope with the fact that there was a war happening eight floors down on the street below them.
	What do you want?
	Yeah.
	Welcome to the Royal Season 3. Great.
	Great.
	Sounds great.
	You know.
	The part of it that you were talking about that my brain has gone through was it starts out in that black and white and then as things like progress...
	Starts out with like Dick Van Dyke or whatever.
	Yeah.
	As things progress through, you know, it starts to...
	Not only does the set start to grow out into the neighborhood, but also as they start to grow out into the neighborhood, and then the S.H.I.E.L.D.
	agents start breaching their way into the world that she's carefully fabricated.
	Because she's losing control.
	Yeah.
	It's slowly, like, things are starting to, people are starting to realize, like, okay, this isn't right anymore, and the world just starts to change.
	As the modern world comes through and the show starts to colorize and evolve.
	That show was an exploration of grief.
	I thought it was amazing.
	They had me sold on the Disney Plus membership when I saw the trailer for that show.
	I just looked at your mom and was like, we're getting Disney Plus.
	I have to see this show.
	It was an exploration of grief.
	I wasn't...
	I wasn't a fan of how they ended her in Doctor Strange 2, but whatever.
	I do like the, I think it was how it should have ended, did it.
	Basically, she's sitting there and she's telling Doctor Strange at the Apple Orchard that she's fabricated.
	She's sitting there and she's like, you know, I just need her powers.
	And he goes, okay, Wanda, just for a second.
	I understand you're a grieving widow and mother.
	At least, you think you're a mother.
	That's beside the point.
	The point here is, this is a young girl that has these powers.
	And she will always have these powers.
	So how about, rather than murdering her and taking her powers, we take you and her, To my magic school.
	You teach her.
	Help raise her the rest of her life.
	Teach her how to control her magic powers that you have a better understanding of, apparently.
	And learn some key things about how to be a mother, for one.
	And two, find a timeline with her where Wanda has died, but her family doesn't know yet.
	And replace her.
	Yeah.
	And be the Wanda for your kids that you want to be so badly and actually have some idea about how to be a mother from helping raise her and keep her protected.
	Yeah.
	That way she gets to live on, learns how to use her powers so she stops randomly slipping through dimensions.
	Yeah.
	And you get to have your happy ending too and nobody has to fucking die.
	Yeah.
	And she goes and she's like, wait, well, I guess that makes sense, yeah.
	What do I do about the, I can't remember the name of the evil book.
	Oh, the grimoire.
	Yeah, what about the grimoire?
	Just give that here.
	I'm going to use it anyway, I'm sure.
	Like, okay.
	You know, just passes off the book and goes on her merry way.
	Yeah.
	Like, there's...
	There's different ways she could have gone about that, but also how they have her kind of just off herself by collapsing the witch temple on herself was kind of like, that feels a little dramatic even for her.
	Well, I understand House of Harkness is actually supposed to be a really good show.
	Yeah.
	They got high praise on Fat Man Beyond, and all of these audience members really liked it a lot.
	Yeah, that might be worth checking out.
	Wait, House of Harkness?
	I think it's House of Harkness.
	She was the other witch.
	Oh, yeah, yeah.
	And she wakes up in the bushes from death and she goes downstairs because she's like, okay, Wanda got out of control.
	I just need to go consult the grimoire.
	And she gets down there and she goes, where's my book?
	Yeah, yeah.
	Like I said, that show got a lot of high praise, so it might be worth checking out.
	Yeah, that's the thing, is that these people, they seem to think that the only people that are going to really be hurt are the people they don't like.
	Yeah.
	They haven't sussed out because they don't want to know.
	The repercussions under them.
	Yeah.
	And I think one of the things, one of the fucky things about like, and maybe even something that they have thought of, that they're looking at as a possible profit motive, if people aren't able to get food, or the food's so outrageously expensive because of all the shit that we talked about,
	what's available?
	Supplements.
	Vitamins.
	These things they've had that they've been trying to push.
	For decades that only their core people buy?
	Well, vitamins tend to last a long time.
	Yeah.
	And if they've got problems moving them, well, how do you make the vitamins attractive?
	Simple.
	You raise the price of the food.
	Yeah.
	And I think that...
	Could be a goal.
	Like I said, I don't like conspiracies, but I see that as a possible thing.
	Like, oh, well, if the poors can't get this, we can get this.
	Yeah, and we can sell them this.
	Yeah, we can sell them vitamins.
	As long as the vitamins are cheaper than the food, they'll buy the vitamins.
	So the very people that are going to tell you not to take medicine in pill form.
	Are going to give...
	Are going to give you vitamins in pill and gummy form, yeah.
	And one of the other things is, you know, I think people are going to wind up going over that in this kind of situation because they're going to need some nutrition.
	Yeah.
	They're going to need nutrition because one of the other things that RFK Jr. wants to do is he wants...
	He said that he wants like McDonald's, as an example, to go back to frying things in beef tallow.
	Yeah.
	That is so much worse for your heart.
	And, yeah, it's like that's one of many things where it's like, ah.
	You know, so people, let's say that's a source of protein for people.
	Let's say that $5 McDonald's meal on a daily is a source of protein and calories for people.
	Yeah.
	Well, they might not want to do that now.
	Yeah.
	So, again, what do you have?
	Vitamins?
	Protein shakes.
	Like I said, people aren't really realizing the repercussions of what getting rid of laws that are holding companies back is going to do.
	They don't really realize the repercussions of what RFK Jr. himself just wants to do.
	And what Candace will full-throatedly get behind.
	And that's why from the next episode on until we've gone through all of them, We're doing Shot in the Dark.
	Like I said, if she actually produces the two that never came out, we're definitely going to do those.
	One of the things that was pointed out on It Could Happen Here about RFK Jr. was we're on the cusp of having an actual HIV vaccine.
	Shit.
	Really?
	Not a pill like the PrEP thing.
	An actual, like, go get a shot and you're good for several years.
	No risk.
	HIV vaccine is on the cusp of getting released.
	Like, it's been going through the trials.
	Yeah.
	It is a thing that exists.
	This dude wants to stop all research on vaccines and shit for eight years.
	He wants to put an eight-year moratorium and just stop all of that.
	Which is going to set back a lot of those vaccines research.
	Vaccine research, and yeah, there was a noted germ doctor who was like, oh, that's great, so are we just going to tell all the germs, hey guys, take eight years off?
	Yeah.
	Like, we're not working on it in a lab doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
	Yeah.
	It means we caught it.
	And we're trying to figure out how to kill it.
	Yeah, that's why, you know, the meme of doctors sitting there looking over test results.
	So I got some good news and some bad news.
	Okay, what's the good news?
	Well, you get to name it.
	Yeah, you get to name it.
	Yeah, I saw that one recently.
	Oh my god.
	It's...
	The future does not look entirely bright, but I think with...
	Like I said, it's...
	Watching the press cave to this has been the worst thing, because it's like, yeah, y 'all fucked up, but rather than own it...
	You're caving it.
	They're just gonna roll over, yeah, like the fucking German press did.
	Yeah.
	You know, and the Italian press and all that.
	It's like...
	It's watching a reboot film at this point.
	It's watching a gritty fucking reboot.
	That's something that some of the people on TikTok...
	It's the worst Batman movie.
	Some of the people that I follow on TikTok that do history shit.
	Same with Instagram as well.
	One of the guys was sitting there and, like, he does history skits of, you know, countries, sort of.
	Like, a brief summary interaction with them.
	Yeah.
	And just, you know, playing Britain and going, um, okay, hang on.
	Russia, what are you doing right now?
	We're having a civil war with, uh, not even a civil war.
	We're having a full-blown war with a smaller country that's our next-door neighbor that used to belong to us and then got their own independence.
	Yeah.
	Okay, that's not good.
	Germany, what are you doing?
	We're just minding our own business.
	Good, good.
	Keep minding your own business.
	France, what's going on right now?
	Revolutionary war, and quite frankly, we want to go fight Russia.
	Okay, not good.
	America, what's going on?
	We're about to have our biggest decline in finances.
	Very not good.
	Canada, what's going on with you?
	Civil wars and...
	Well, brink of civil war and...
	Yeah, we kind of want to go fight Russia too.
	Fuck me.
	It's World War II again.
	Germany, don't fucking do anything.
	Just don't.
	It's one of those things that people have said leading up to this that...
	Even prior to Trump, people who were much better at reading the tea leaves were saying, is this really happening?
	They're looking at the threat of things as they're going on, and they're like, is this really happening?
	Is America going to have to do with fascism to understand that it doesn't work?
	And it's like, I hope not.
	And then, what happens?
	Okay, so if we...
	Unfortunately, as it's looking to fascism, are we going to have to go through a communism before we get back to a harsh communism?
	No, here's the thing.
	Karl Marx, who was great at figuring out how these things go, he thought fascism didn't really enter into his thinking.
	He thought that it would just be a natural progression for capitalist societies to, over time, go into socialism and then go into communism.
	He saw that as the natural progression of just people basically being good and getting better.
	Like, okay, well, we can turn over some of these functions to the state.
	And then, okay, well, the state can do all this stuff and then we'll just work for the state.
	He kind of saw that as the path.
	He didn't see fascism.
	He didn't realize that corporations would see socialism coming in and realize that they would get less profits.
	Yeah.
	And that they would get with the government people that didn't want, or in this case military, that didn't want to let go of their hold.
	Or that they would get with, you know, that corporations would ally themselves with the military and whoever was in power.
	Yeah.
	That's what happened in Spain.
	And they would do a fascism.
	He didn't see that.
	Yeah.
	Like, that didn't occur to him that that kind of thing would happen.
	Yeah.
	And it didn't occur to a lot of people.
	Like, there was a period in the pre-purge days of Germany and Italy and stuff where people were like, oh, well, fascism might be a way to do things.
	Mm-hmm.
	You know, this might work out.
	And then they saw that it would not.
	They saw how much, like, death you needed to do with fascism.
	And they were like, yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no.
	You know, like, so yeah, I don't think, I think what would happen here, more likely than not, is we would, if a full fascism happens, right, let's just...
	Thought experiment on this.
	I've thought about it before.
	If you have a full fascism happen, what you have next is I think Germany got it right.
	You have a reckoning.
	You get rid of the war criminals.
	Hopefully through killings because they fucking earned it.
	And then You restructure everything.
	To where you just go, we did this.
	We're sorry.
	And everyone gets in their schooling that a lot of us fucked up.
	A lot of us fucked up.
	And the people that were either revolutionaries or helped, maybe they get killed.
	But their stories are told as heroes after the fact.
	I think That's the best way that it occurs.
	Italy recovered, too.
	Spain recovered.
	Germany didn't abandon their lists, though.
	But their lists at least make sense.
	There's an American guy that lives in Germany.
	He's got the train list that he has to follow.
	And he's like...
	The first year in Germany is really fucking jarring because of all the lists.
	But after that year, when you enter into your second year, you've kind of become accustomed to everything and you're like, this makes so much sense.
	My life is just so organized.
	Yes, I'm available Saturday night.
	I'm available Saturday night for the next four fucking months!
	Yeah, you know, like, I think that it would...
	It would be something akin to that.
	I mean, almost no one wants to enter into a phase of communism.
	Because communism got a deservedly bad rap based on how it was enacted.
	A real communism is one where people enter into it willingly.
	They're not put there at gunpoint.
	That is so unlikely to happen because of all of the authoritarian communism that has occurred.
	Voluntary communism is what you have literally as like a commune.
	Yeah.
	Or an intentional community.
	Yeah.
	Where people enter into it willingly and they work there and they live there and they help.
	Yeah, it's like...
	And you can have...
	You know, you can have intentional communities, such as farming communities here in America, where people do help each other out, but they all have their own jobs, they all have their own farms, but they still get together to do shit, but they're not sequestered away.
	It's not like the fucking Amish.
	Yeah.
	You know, they don't sequester themselves away, but if asked, they realize that, oh yeah, this is communal.
	That is the entire point.
	Yeah.
	You know, like if, to the point where like, If somebody's job shuts down, they have a community they can rely on, and maybe they can get a better job with somebody else in the community, or whatever.
	They take care of themselves.
	And that's not something that we've really gotten away from.
	It's just it's not as common because we have so many people.
	We have so many people splintered off into separate work.
	But you can still see the community structure here in the city.
	You know, previous job and such, you know, there was a phase in there where I was having some difficulty, not with having money, but with being able to actually, like, use my fucking payment methods.
	Yeah.
	That, you know, I'd sit there and I'm like, I've got 400 sitting in the account and I'd show them and I'd go, I just can't fucking use it.
	And they'd go, look, when you can get it straightened out, pay me back.
	Yeah.
	And they'd, you know, help me out.
	And then I'd pay them back and they'd go, oh, well, thank you.
	I wasn't actually expecting you to.
	And it's like, yeah, you know.
	You did me a solid, I'm doing you a solid.
	Do you want fucking lunch?
	No, dude, you don't gotta...
	No, I'm getting you fucking lunch.
	You bought me food the other day.
	Here's your money back, now let me get you some fucking lunch.
	What the fuck do you want?
	Granted, my way of it's a tad bit more aggressive.
	Because I won't be told fucking no.
	Fuck you, I'm paying you back with interest.
	Yeah.
	You know, it's...
	Like I said, that sense of community, you can even see it here in the cities with not just community gardens, but just how people are.
	If our neighbors are having trouble getting their car out of the street to get to their fucking job or their doctor or whatever the fuck, I don't care, they're trying to leave, clearly.
	I will gear up, as will our neighbors, Grab our shovels and go help these people out.
	Yeah.
	Of the snow, by the way.
	Just for translation there.
	And people have helped us out.
	Yeah.
	It's just what you do to be just a good neighbor, but also, yeah, everybody...
	We all stay...
	I can't...
	The only neighbor whose name I knew moved.
	Yeah.
	So...
	we all recognize each other.
	We'll all help each other out.
	And there's a couple of assholes on the street that nobody fucks with.
	And we all laugh as a group when their shit gets hauled away by the cops.
	Just fuck them.
	We see them slip and stuff.
	There was the
	one asshole down the way.
	Yeah. Yeah.
	Vehicle got stuck.
	I was watching him do his thing.
	And I was out there chipping away at the ice with, uh,
	The hatchet?
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	And I looked up the street and I just hear a, oh, fuck!
	And I look up and I just see him like a turtle trying to get up.
	He grabs onto the fender of his truck, gets up and like dusts himself on him and walks up to his house and I'm just like, while I understand the pain, you kind of deserve that one, man.
	Yeah, that's what you get for parking in front of a stop sign.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, fuck that dude.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, but like I said, I don't think that we would devolve into a dictatorship or fucking war bands or anything like that.
	I think that the best thing we can do is what we've been doing, which is stay employed and make as many podcasts about this idiot as we can until we can't.
	Yep.
	Stay employed, make as many podcasts as possible, and stay anonymous as possible.
	Yep, that's the idea.
	The good news is they can only dox you once.
	True, true.
	And no one has even come close.
	I haven't gotten a single bad email yet.
	I haven't even gotten an email of somebody being like, I could totally prove who you are, because I would respond to that person.
	I'd be like, please, tell me what you know.
	And you don't get points for just repeating back shit that we've said.
	Because I'm on top of that.
	I edit stuff out sometimes.
	Go ahead.
	Beyond what we've presented, based on what we've presented, have you figured out?
	Give it to me.
	Like, that has not occurred.
	Yeah.
	That has not occurred.
	And every day, I open up my email, and I'm like, maybe today's the day.
	Yeah.
	No?
	All right.
	Also, I do have to say, anybody that has messaged me at the Matthew Anderson email address, I've been having difficulty getting signed into it.
	Oh, no.
	So I'm very sorry if you have messaged me.
	Because I've been sitting here.
	I got a new phone.
	And the new phone, I put an email into, and it was like, what's your security verification?
	And I'm like, uh, it should be this.
	And it goes, okay, check with such and such email account.
	And I'm like, you dipshit.
	If I could get to the email, do you think I'd be trying to fucking sign into it on a different device?
	No.
	Oh, man.
	Yeah, I can look at it and I can see if I'm resetting the account or something for you.
	Okay.
	Yeah, I can get that figured out.
	I keep forgetting about that every single time.
	Well, now that you've mentioned it, I know what to do.
	Okay.
	I kind of know what to do.
	As Trump would say, I have a concept of a plan.
	But I can actually figure shit out.
	I don't need some...
	Toady, motherfucker.
	Oh, God, that's the last thing I want to talk about.
	Yeah.
	Because they're talking about cutting all this government spending and shit.
	Elon has gone out and asked people with knowledge of these systems to come and work for free to make shit work.
	He has asked for volunteers To come make things work.
	Well, to come and make, like, as people get fired or quit, because a lot of people are like, I'm not sticking around for this.
	Yeah.
	So as people are lost in the attrition, he wants people that are, like, I guess Elon loyalists to come in and work these jobs as they get shut down.
	So the processes will shut down correctly.
	It's called if there's a long process to shutting a department down.
	Maybe you shouldn't be shutting that department down, my guy.
	It's like you don't walk into a hospital and go, okay guys, so here's the deal.
	You're all fired.
	But, before we fire you, could you please stick around and finish up your surgeries and your...
	Why are you guys all leaving now?
	What do you mean another hospital's already hired half of you?
	The fun thing here is that when Trump announced Elon at one of his parties, he said he's going to do for America what he did for Twitter.
	Rebrand it stupidly?
	Yeah.
	Rebrand it stupidly, and that's another thing, too.
	Apparently, after getting introduced like that, Elon has barely left Trump's side.
	Like, he is with him almost every step of the way.
	Jesus Christ.
	Every day.
	Every fucking day.
	Yeah.
	I just, I really hope, because I just had a dumb thought, and I almost dare not utter it out lest it become true.
	It may have already been.
	What's that?
	I swear to all that is unholy in this world, if he goes and just goes, okay guys, so here's the deal.
	We're renaming the United States of America.
	Two, America.
	Honestly, it wouldn't be the dumbest thing.
	It wouldn't be the dumbest thing, but I'd be severely disappointed that something that I just thought about that seems kind of a little funny would become a thing.
	The thing is that Elon doesn't want to be a senator or a congressman.
	The closest thing he could ever...
	He doesn't want those jobs.
	He wants the top job.
	He'll never get it because he's from South Africa.
	Yeah.
	Oh!
	Reminds me, I don't know the truth on it or not.
	I'm bothered to look into it beyond memes.
	Supposedly, there's a fair chance that he lied on his immigration forms and it's going to be one of the names on the docket to get ousted.
	Yeah, here's the deal.
	He's got money.
	Yeah.
	He's got the superpower of money.
	Fuck.
	It's the only superpower that anyone recognizes.
	Yeah.
	Him and his 11 kids and his multiple...
	11?
	Yeah.
	11 at least.
	Here's one of the things...
	11?
	If you're an attractive female and you work anywhere in the vicinity of Elon Musk...
	Yeah.
	He offers his semen that's been preserved to impregnate them.
	Wait, wait.
	He offers free IVF.
	Hang on.
	To carry his child.
	Wait.
	Hold up.
	One second.
	That feels like a new form of sexual harassment.
	Indeed it is.
	It is, yeah.
	See the shit I have to know?
	So he doesn't like go up to him and like...
	Do any of the normal billionaire...
	He's not a billionaire.
	Oh, no.
	He is $272 billion.
	Okay.
	Billionaire thing of, like, you know, grope them, say sexual shit to them, just in general harass them.
	He just kind of walks up like a fucking alien and just goes...
	Excuse me, beautiful maiden.
	Could you please bow my semen?
	What?
	Ew, no, I'm not gonna fuck you.
	Oh, don't worry.
	We aren't going to fuck.
	You see this file?
	Yeah, it's for you.
	Pretty much.
	Yeah, pretty much.
	God damn it.
	He has become known for it.
	Yeah, he has become known for it.
	You know that game that the creators of Rick and Morty made?
	I can't remember the name of it.
	High on Life?
	Yeah, High on Life.
	There's a guy in High on Life, one of the aliens you run into, wears like a pervert trench coat.
	Okay.
	And you walk up to him, and he's like, hey dude.
	I got something.
	You want to know what it is?
	It's highly illegal.
	I probably shouldn't be telling you.
	But I'm going to tell you anyway.
	Are you a cop?
	No, you're not a cop.
	And it's like, okay, this dude's about to offer me some crack or something.
	He opens it up and there's a bunch of vials of white liquid in his coat.
	And he's like, okay, what is this stuff?
	And he's like, space bunk.
	What?
	It's my semen.
	Do you want to buy a vial?
	It's free.
	Tastes like milk.
	It's like, what?
	He's like, don't think about it too hard.
	Do you want to buy it or not?
	Well, if you walk up to him and you buy it from him, he goes, thank you for being another good customer.
	And every time you walk past him, he talks to you and asks you if you want to buy another vial.
	Well, at a later point in the game, you run into another one of him in a different city and you're like, oh god, it's the pervert alien again.
	Well, you walk up to him and he's like, who are you?
	You're looking for Randy?
	Yeah, no, no, I'm not Randy.
	I'm his twin brother.
	No, I don't sell semen like that weirdo does.
	I do sell my blood, though.
	And it's like, what the fuck?
	Oh, that's great.
	Yeah, no, that's the image that just popped in my head when I was saying that.
	It was like, see this vial here?
	Just opening up a trench coat with a bunch of vials of fucking Elon semen.
	God.
	Elon Tusk.
	He's got...
	See, he just wants to have as many kids as possible.
	He thinks his children...
	Will be his legacy and save the future of humanity.
	How full of yourself do you...
	So full of himself.
	I was going to say, never mind.
	So full of himself.
	Yeah, this man actually...
	God, he's terrible.
	This man might as well be the equivalent of fucking...
	He's terrible.
	RFK Jr. is terrible.
	The fact that...
	The fact that...
	Candace...
	Did not produce the Shot in the Dark series because...
	RFK Jr. had a problem with her.
	Tells me he's all over this shit.
	Now, I have not listened to a single minute of it yet.
	That's going to be what I do next week.
	Starting tomorrow, actually.
	I'm going to start listening to it and taking notes and doing my thing.
	I'm in no way looking forward to that.
	I've been putting it off for so long.
	Because I'm like, well, let's get through the election.
	And then, fuck me.
	It happened.
	I was sitting here watching the results the entire time that we were recording and I was just like, uh...
	Man, don't catch the snitch, Trump.
	Don't catch the golden snitch.
	Fuck, you got 270 and then you got 300.
	I think the final tally was like 100 million Americans voted for him.
	Fuck, guys.
	Yeah.
	I was just...
	I was watching the thing that was...
	One thing I'm glad to see, even though it was painful, was a lot of the areas that I served with Shipt.
	People were somber.
	They still are, in a lot of ways.
	They were very somber after the fact.
	Like, shops were depressing.
	Yeah.
	It was...
	A lot of liquor store purchases have been made.
	The liquor store profits have gone...
	Through the roof.
	There were some jobs that I refused to take the day after.
	Some of them were like, they have flowers and champagne.
	And I was like, whoever's getting champagne today and flowers, I don't want to deal with them.
	Because people were like, this is a gift.
	I'm like, I don't...
	Nope.
	Don't care.
	Nope.
	Not right now.
	Nope.
	But, yeah, a lot of the shoppers that I spoke with and a lot of the SOAR employees that I spoke with, I was like, man, I was like, look, I know what happened last night, and I'm on probably the same team as y 'all are, but it feels like a death in the family in this place.
	They're like, well, yeah, like, the election sucks.
	Well, yeah, I know that.
	I don't think any of y 'all should be happy.
	Anyone who's happy right now, I instantly am like, okay, watching you.
	But I was like, I get it.
	I was like, look, if nothing else, it is disheartening to see a lot of good people be sad right now.
	Because it means I wasn't wrong about you guys.
	I wasn't wrong about y 'all.
	We all feel the same way.
	And this area is deep blue.
	Thank goodness.
	I think we're going to be fine here.
	I think we're about to get a lot of transplants.
	Especially as shit goes south in a lot of these states.
	I swear every day there's at least one post on the Minnesota or the Twin Cities Reddit boards of people being like, I'm moving there from Wherever.
	Yeah.
	I'm moving there from wherever.
	What do y 'all think about this area?
	Are the schools in this town any good?
	That kind of thing.
	People were getting real world questions answered.
	Yeah.
	And Walls was a big part of that.
	Everywhere he went, he talked about the benefits of living in Minnesota.
	He was a big part of that.
	But yeah, people were like, well shit, I don't want to move to California because it's so expensive.
	What's things like in Minnesota?
	So yeah, I think we're going to wind up with a lot of transplants here over the next few years, which will be fine.
	Particularly if they force our immigrant communities to go away.
	It won't be Minnesota doing that.
	If it is Minnesota doing that, it will be because they had to cave in.
	Either way, I'm not looking forward to that.
	I don't want to witness it.
	I don't want to witness it because people are not going to go willingly.
	No.
	And, you know, I'd rather...
	It's going to be bad enough seeing it on Mastodon and on Reddit and hearing about it.
	And seeing it on Facebook posts and stuff like that.
	We're still about two months away from all the shit, so that's good.
	But yeah, it's...
	Regardless of how they do it, of how they try to do it, if they do it the way they want, it doesn't matter.
	It's going to be bad.
	And too many people just don't realize it yet.
	But, you know, again, that's why we are going to go through at least the R.K. Jr. shit, and I will keep listening to Candace's show during the weeks.
	And, you know, maybe at the end of the Shot in the Dark series, maybe we'll do an episode catching people up with the first day after the election to whatever
	the current...
	I'm going to do the deep research that we're known for with our bullshit.
	And we'll push back as much as we can until we can't.
	Yeah.
	You know?
	So, I hope this was a decent episode for everybody.
	We are going to get on to our soda review now that I've been looking forward to.
	Here you go.
	Glass.
	Glass for me.
	I don't know if this is a twist cap.
	Well, let's find out.
	It doesn't look like it.
	It doesn't have the little arrows.
	Give it a shot.
	I can tell you by the internal lip this ain't one.
	Right over there on the TV stand.
	Yeah.
	I've got to put something under that.
	Yeah.
	That was not a pretty sound.
	It was not.
	Alright.
	We are doing a...
	I'm not sure if it's actually from Mexico or...
	Let me see.
	Yeah.
	Alright, we're doing Chiaritos Pineapple Natural Flavor Soda.
	Let me see.
	Distributed by Tip Distributions.
	El Paso, Texas.
	I don't think it's made by them.
	Oh, no, it does.
	Made in Mexico.
	It's a Mexican drink.
	Alright.
	Now, I got the pineapple one because sometimes I'm kind of a pansy.
	Tamarind was available.
	And I was like, Tamarind can be next week.
	I need something that at least sounds good to my head right now.
	So, here goes the first one.
	Also, apologies.
	We're trying to set things up.
	The glass did kind of scrape on the microphone a bit.
	Oh, it's fine.
	So, yeah.
	Microphone's a potato.
	Microphone's a potato.
	It is.
	I mean, it's small.
	It makes weird clicks.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, to the point where, like, for a while there, I was hearing the playback of episodes, and I was like, is he clicking his fingers?
	And I realized, no, the microphone just, it does this weird click, like, infrequently.
	It's hard to gauge when it's going to happen.
	But I don't care enough about it to edit it out.
	Well, here's the thing, is, okay, for viewers' sake, when we do this, we're in my bedroom, of course, you all know that.
	Well, I always sit on the bed, and I always sit cross-legged.
	I generally sit cross-legged.
	Most places that I sit, I have to let my hangs hang over while my legs hang over the edge, which is only ever when I'm in shoes.
	But when I'm barefoot, I tend to do this motion.
	Is that not it?
	No.
	It is like a click in the recording.
	I can't put it together.
	Like I said, I'm like, you know...
	I'm not burning mental time on this.
	Fair enough.
	It's infrequent, and it's just, I don't care.
	Yeah.
	I don't care.
	At any rate, let's give this a...
	God, that does smell like a pineapple soda.
	Yeah.
	It looks like one, too.
	It's very yellow.
	Oh, yeah.
	Like, you know what?
	There might actually be pineapple bits in this.
	Like, I'm looking down at my thing here.
	Oh, no, that's bubbles.
	Mm-hmm.
	okay well let's go to shop
	That is pineapple from sweet down to bitter.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, that is very accurate.
	That is a pineapple.
	That's quite good, actually, because it's not cloyingly sweet.
	It's not like sticking with me.
	Yeah, it's like there and gone.
	Ingredients, carbonated water, cane sugar, citric acid, natural flavors.
	Sodium pensuit as a preservative.
	Sodium citrate.
	FD&C yellow number 5. FD&C yellow number 6. Well, there's no red 40, so I guess that's cool.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, that's actually quite good.
	Yeah.
	I used to see this brand for sale all the time back in Florida.
	Oh, yeah.
	Yeah.
	I mean, I got this one from Hy-Vee tonight.
	Fuck.
	Yeah.
	Well, they used to sell it at the...
	Fuck.
	What was the name of that not-quite-Mexican store that we used to go into?
	Rose?
	Oh, Rose, yeah.
	Yeah, Rose back in Jacksonville, yeah.
	Yeah, I was trying to remember what the...
	Was it IBF or something like that?
	No, no, no.
	International Grocers something.
	IGF.
	Something like that, yeah.
	IGA.
	International Grocers Association.
	Yeah, it was IGA Rose.
	In their drink style, they had that.
	Along with what was for a long while.
	You could get this at the corner store.
	Oh, yeah.
	It was in our neighborhood in Middleburg.
	Yeah, yeah.
	They had these.
	They had the tamarind one, too.
	But there were a lot of Mexicans that lived out that way.
	Yeah.
	Which, that was not that...
	Something that I do miss is the old aloe drink that I used to get from Rose.
	Yeah.
	The thing about it was I stopped drinking it before we left Florida.
	Because last time I had gotten it, they changed something in the drink.
	Like, one of the things that they added to it, and it just stopped tasting good.
	Yeah.
	I know this is going to sound weird, but I really enjoyed aloe.
	For a while there, I had a full body rash that the only fucking alleviation to was an aloe...
	fucking smoothie essentially that was slathered head to toe on me and In that time I'd also grown to really kind of like the smell of fresh aloe Yeah, because until it gets old
	When it gets old, it smells like fucking B.O. But before it gets old, it smells really nice, so I started drinking aloe drinks.
	Well, you can find them here.
	They sell them everywhere.
	Yeah, I've seen the brand, but I'm just so scared to get the brand again because...
	I mean, there's other brands.
	Yeah.
	I think I'm just worried about getting another brand because the first brand of it that I'd seen was the first brand that was selling it here, and then the rest of the brands came in.
	And then all of their ingredients started to line up across the board.
	Yeah.
	And it was like, oh.
	Well, I mean, we've got...
	You know, we've...
	Like, aloe drinks are a big deal in the Hispanic community.
	And we've got, like...
	We've got a really good Super Mercado.
	Oh, yeah.
	Yeah.
	I haven't been to the Super Mercado yet.
	Yeah, now me and your mom went and...
	Yeah, it's a legit store.
	It's really nice.
	Yeah, it's really fucking nice.
	It's not where y 'all found the guinea pig, was it?
	Yeah, they had guinea pig.
	Yeah, they had guinea pig.
	It's exactly as it sounds, listeners.
	They were guinea pigs that had been dressed out to be barbecued and shit.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	It was so odd.
	Their meat department was legit.
	They had a lot of...
	Stuff that I'd only ever seen in, like, the Hispanic section of, like, Rose.
	Yeah.
	Stuff like, yeah.
	The, um, fucking, uh, one thing that does kind of kill me about, well, most stores anyway, is nowhere here will sell, like, like, they'll sell you cow heart and calf liver,
	but nobody that sells, like, rabbits or poultry We'll sell you their organs.
	And I understand that there's, like, laws or guidelines or some shit, or they don't want to risk people getting diseases.
	You just have to know where to go.
	Okay.
	Because, like, I was in...
	Fuck, I was in...
	I was actually...
	Yeah, I was in...
	Hy-Vee earlier.
	Or, no, I was in...
	Ones and Byerly's.
	And they had turkey gizzards.
	Oh, see, I've known about the turkey gizzards.
	That one is surprisingly popular.
	Cub, you can get those things.
	You can get them like a bucket of chicken hearts or whatever the fuck, yeah.
	Okay.
	Yeah.
	I wonder if they'd sell the chicken skins.
	I don't know.
	I don't know about that.
	That's always a difficulty I find because, well, yes, it is easy to get a pack of boneless thighs.
	My problem is...
	I'm having a hard time finding boneless thighs that still have skin off.
	You never will.
	Because it's part of the process.
	That's the part that kills me.
	Just buy the fucking bone-in thighs.
	I mean, I could, yeah.
	Just buy the bone-in thighs, take the...
	The bone out.
	Get the fillet knife, take...
	Well, yeah, well, get the fillet knife, take the skin off, and cut around the bone.
	Like, it comes right off.
	Yeah.
	I think my own laziness is getting in my way on that one.
	Bone-in thighs are cheaper?
	Yeah.
	And you know what you get to do with the bones?
	Stock them.
	Uh-huh.
	Yeah.
	See, I think my own laziness is just preventing me from getting the bone in the eyes.
	Yeah, you need to punch your laziness in the balls.
	Yeah.
	And then shove those balls up your laziness's ass.
	Hang on.
	If you're punching them...
	Yeah, you punch it in the balls, and then you grip them.
	And then you pull them down, right?
	Yeah, like, you're doing damage.
	I'm doing damage.
	Why are you being nice about it?
	You're doing damage.
	You want maximum damage?
	What?
	You want maximum damage.
	You shove them up the ass of your laziness, okay?
	And then you speed bag the dick, alright?
	While the balls are up in the ass, and then you feed your laziness spaghetti on a non-stop run, like the guy from fucking Seven Dead.
	And you blow up your fucking laziness because it can't shit because its own balls are shoved up its ass.
	Alright?
	It explodes.
	And then your laziness is done and you just deal with chicken thighs like a man for the rest of your life.
	Well, hang on.
	But something a little...
	This is how he grew up.
	I'm sorry.
	Something a little easier, though.
	Okay.
	Okay.
	You've already got laziness' pants off, right?
	Dick balls is there.
	Right.
	Okay.
	Something you can do to be a bit deceiving.
	I just want to say this.
	Laziness, as a creature, does not own a pair of pants.
	Okay, okay.
	Laziness is...
	Fair enough, fair enough.
	It's probably naked most of the time anyway.
	Yeah, all the time.
	Yeah.
	So what you've got to do, right, is you've got to take the balls and you've got to gently stroke them and bring them back to where the anus is.
	Okay.
	And then take your fist and shove that shit up there.
	Meat puppet them like eyes into place.
	Okay.
	Wiggle your hand out of there and then speed back the dick.
	Because you've got your laziness on the ropes, right?
	If the balls go up, the dick just points down.
	It's just there.
	It's just hanging right there.
	You speed bag it until the laziness is unconscious.
	It's not going to take much.
	The dick is really sensitive.
	With the balls shoved up the ass expertly, You've now activated the fucking prostate of the laziness.
	The prostate is active.
	That dick hanging down, it's going to be hard.
	You just speed bag that shit until the laziness is knocked out.
	It's totally unconscious.
	Then, like I said, you hook it up to the machine from Seven that feeds it spaghetti until it explodes.
	Why do you want it to be hard when you go to speed bag it?
	Because it's going to be sensitive now.
	And it can't eject anything because the balls are in a vice grip up inside the asshole.
	Okay?
	See, I didn't think about this for very long.
	It just made sense as I was talking about it.
	Alright?
	See?
	Like, it all just works.
	It shouldn't work, but yet it does.
	Fucking Todd Howard.
	It just works.
	Yeah, it just works.
	Honestly, he had the right idea when presenting a video game and somebody goes, well, how is this mechanic supposed to work?
	It just works.
	Everybody gives him so much shit for that one, but I'd say just leave the man alone.
	He runs Bethesda, and sure, Bethesda might be a shyster every now and again, but they're not as big of shysters as EA.
	Oh, God.
	EA.
	It's kind of lame.
	There was a thing recently with EA where people were noticing that a lot of EA games were going on sale because their servers are about to be delisted.
	So it's like, yeah, okay, Battlefield is like five bucks, but in a year it's not going to be playable.
	Something like that.
	Something like that.
	But yeah, we're going to cut this off here.
	We'll be back in two weeks.
	I'm talking about speedball.
	Hey, look, you know, you've got to give people what they want.
	They've never heard that before, and now they're going to think about it.
	And they're going to be like, that sounds really bad.
	Maybe, maybe I don't dox these guys.
	Yeah, yeah.
	As Rick said...
	Sex sells.
	What does sex sell in this case?
	But sex sells.
	Alright everybody, that's it for now.
	We'll see you again in two weeks.
	Bye.
	Have a good two weeks.
