| Liz, I have some, well, I think it's good news. | |
| You might not think it is. | |
| Okay. | |
| So the other day I got, well, to be completely honest with you, I got high. | |
| I got high on poppers and I sold our podcast to Crimethink. | |
| I'm sorry, what? | |
| Crimethink? | |
| I sold our podcast to Crime Think. | |
| What is that? | |
| Crimethink is a poster company, I believe, from Olympia, Washington. | |
| That's kind of like, you know, when you get to see like a cross punk guy and he's like, hey. | |
| And you're always like, I wonder what that guy like thinks about politics. | |
| That's what Crime Think is. | |
| And unfortunately, I mean, well, I mean, there are hosts. | |
| Oh, there are owners. | |
| So I'll say fortunately. | |
| Fortunately, I did sell us to them for $800. | |
| So you can buy more poppers? | |
| I'm the first to say my bad. | |
| Yes. | |
| But yes, no, I do have the other bad news too, sort of what I call the secondary bad news is I did spend $800 on poppers. | |
| I don't believe you. | |
| Well, you're going to be believing me when I come by your house with a butt flap and a leather jacket that has denim also sewn onto it. | |
| Look, I've known you long enough that I remember when you used to wear not far away from... | |
| Cut the, cut the, cut the, cut the intro. | |
| Curfew check. | |
| Liz, are you home? | |
| Yes, I am home. | |
| Okay. | |
| Are you home? | |
| No. | |
| Well, I mean, you know, I've been called up. | |
| No, I'm at the station right now, but like I'm off duty. | |
| It's my hour off. | |
| Not the police station. | |
| Which station? | |
| The zoo. | |
| I freelance at zoos occasionally. | |
| Oh. | |
| Yeah. | |
| I'm called. | |
| They call me the. | |
| Moonlight. | |
| You moonlight. | |
| I'm Moonlight. | |
| I'm called the, they call me the Apes Friend. | |
| I go in there. | |
| That's a terrible nickname. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Well, it's not catchy, but it's my job. | |
| I go in there. | |
| I hang out with them. | |
| You know, make sure that they're not getting into trouble. | |
| And, you know, I hang out with parakeets as well. | |
| I do that sort of like side job. | |
| But no, I'm. | |
| Man, side note, there was such a great rumor. | |
| Amazing. | |
| Spread like a flash. | |
| I don't know, whatever. | |
| Love to mix a metaphor. | |
| Bright like a diamond uh, that a tiger escaped the Oakland Zoo during one of the riots. | |
| That was, I got so excited incredible, that was probably the best three hours of my life. | |
| Well, I believe that to be true. | |
| And then, not just like 15 minutes later, they were like, no, all tigers accounted for bullshit. | |
| Also, we don't know if they're telling the truth. | |
| Yeah, it was Oakland Police Department, right? | |
| Yeah, those guys. | |
| Well ironically, on the on the uh, on the protest live stream I did the day before I, I expanded upon my idea that protests, instead of taking place in front of City Hall, should take place a couple blocks from the zoo, so they don't really know what we're up to. | |
| And then we go in there and we spring basically every animal. | |
| Oh interesting, it's, that's like uh yeah yeah yeah, you know you've got to stay. | |
| Uh, you know, got to keep them on their toes. | |
| It would use all tactics available, be strategic. | |
| It's uh, it's every. | |
| It's like Bastille day, but for uh, for the noble giraffe. | |
| Well listeners, my name is Brace, i'm Liz, we are joined here by Young Chomsky and this is Truanon. | |
| We uh welcome yeah, we are in. | |
| Uh, we are in. | |
| I don't know what day. | |
| It is day something of America under siege. | |
| I kind of wish we had that like boom boom boom, like CNN, like crazy graphic America Truan, America under siege, and it's like explosion Young Chomsky frantically taking notes here. | |
| I hope on this Yeah, that would rule yeah this is I if we were like a daily thing just calling it like a special series America under siege, but America's under siege By Americans. | |
