Recorded live at Corolla One Studios with Adam Corolla and board certified physician and addiction medicine specialist Dr. Drew Pinsky.
You're listening to the Adam and Dr. Drew Pinsky, you're listening to the Adam and Dr. Drew Show.
Yeah, get it on, got to get on a Drs. Board first-side specialist.
What's going on there, Drew?
I don't know, like I say, I'm always upset about Sue much.
You were talking about, I just got a few things I want to kind of strike at. One is you were talking
about how the street takeovers have been such a thing. You know, with the particular Los
Angeles area, these people come out in big groups and do donuts in the middle of the
street and the cops just stand by. And there are sociological sort of axioms.
I have told you our entire relationship, if a certain percentage of the population decides
it's a good idea to do something, kill, street, whatever, if enough decides it's a good idea,
then there's nothing cops can do.
We're getting to that saturation point now.
I mean the street takeover is the same as a smash and grab.
They just stand back and watch.
Well, it's interesting the same as the Bret Weinstein story,
right?
He and his wife were being sort of tracked and hunted.
And the cops said, no, we can't help you.
Well, you should explain the story.
Bret Weinstein was at the.
Don't just do it that.
All right, Bret Weinstein was at the Evergreen College. He was a decorated professor and so was his wife. He was
known in particular for this really an evolutionary biology symposium he would
had. He was very happy with the school and they had a one day a year where the
African-American Student Union or the African American students would sort of
stand down and not go to school and it got to the point where and I don't know
what it was representative of or what it was celebrating whatever but it was
just something that the school student body did and eventually they started
demanding the professors do the same and Weinstein stood out said no no I'm
gonna teach my class you can come or not come this up to you but I can't do this that's not that's ridiculous. Once. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point.
I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. I think that's a good point. student day off, which no one blinked about and they did.
But after doing that for a couple of years,
well, what did they want, Drew?
Progress.
Yeah, so now they wanted to attack someone
who came to school, who wasn't black.
Right, and so he stood up and there was a huge,
sort of a scary reaction.
But that wasn't really, that's not analogous
to what I'm talking about.
The school did nothing to protect him or save him.
Well no, he told a story about going to the cops
and them going, we can't do it, we got nothing.
So.
Yeah, I mean it's kind of both,
because the school and the dean and the whoever,
they didn't protect him at all.
They didn't call the school police
and they didn't call the police police.
They just left him alone.
And yeah, then once it gets to critical mass,
small town, evergreen.
Anyway.
And you know, yeah, I mean, you interviewed him,
you know better than I, but I've interviewed him before too.
What is it, Leviathan, he calls everything now.
He has a theory for this, the blob,
like Mike Benz calls it.
Yeah, yeah, the blob, yeah. Soz calls it. Yeah, yeah, the blob.
So speaking of complying, did you see the video?
I'm gonna ask you guys to do this.
I forget if I sent this to you or not.
Not just of Newsom, but of his attorney general talking to the city of Huntington Beach because
they were suing the state for these housing laws
that they were requiring.
They were requiring them to put in 40,000 new units
in a city that has something like 200,000
or 300,000 people living in it.
And the itinerary general just gets up and goes,
we're coming after you.
I said, but just comply, just comply.
And I thought, oh man, this is, here we are.
This is a totalitarian system.
And then Newsom, I didn't see the tape of Newsom saying something very, very similar
apparently, but this guy, I don't know if I mentioned him before.
Rob Banda.
Banda, I think, is the AG.
But the city attorney for Highton Beach, you need to talk to him.
Oh, that guy.
Michael Gates. And he has been fighting back. He fought off beach closures. Yes
He fought off every excess. He's been successfully, you know
I you know, it's so weird because when I was listening to Stern the other day
He was explaining that the reason you had to vote for Kamala Harris is that so if you have grandchildren so that they can live in freedom
which is a weird i mean he's very earnest he's so
earnest about it yeah and i have no idea what he's talking about
brainwashing i guess i i guess it's trump derangement syndrome but it's
what freedom are we are we speaking of ron de sandis tried to keep things open and gavin news
Have tried to shut everything. What what are you talking about? By the way? I was
Astonished that I was a french radio this morning and they're starting to have questions about code. They're like hey, it's been four years
Why do we know where this thing came from? Oh?
COVID yeah, and I thought and then they expressed how the the two years, Europe was under a two year lockdown.
Yes.
It was terrible.
Yes.
And in Greece, we visited there
after about a year and a half of it,
and the citizens there were telling us
that they had to check in with the government
to leave their house, to go to the grocery store.
Oh yeah, oh no, the sort of,
the more Anglo it was, the more aggressive it was.
Like Australia, New Zealand, you know,
I don't know, Greece, I think of them that way,
but I mean Canada, like sort of the whiter in English,
the fucking harder they went down,
which is interesting, and you tell me,
because you know I have a theme,
but a lot those places
Were more progressive and had like more women running, you know things and you know Prime Minister New Zealand was a woman You know what I mean?
I look she wasn't she's like she had that famous unless you hear it from us. It's don't believe it
You have to hear it from the government
She literally said like the information has to come from the government.
If it comes from anywhere else, don't believe it. Jesus. Yeah, yeah. But it was the more
progressive places, the more Anglo-y, English-y, Canada-y, Trudeau-y, the more... Look look I'm not making this up the theme is this Trudeau is very progressive
he hit his citizens the hardest New Zealand is very progressive they hit their citizens the
hardest California has a very progressive governor and Gavin Newsom he came down the hardest. That was the theme. I did not notice the red states with the red governors coming down.
There was compliance and shutting and distancing and all the whatever, but there was not the
theme of coming down on the citizen.
Yeah.
The extreme overreach, the extreme, you know, keeping people off the beach.
Right.
So that seems to be the theme.
Here he is.
Let's see him up there.
This is our attorney general.
This is the guy that replaced Kamala Harris, by the way.
So interesting.
One of our messages today is whether you are Huntington Beach or Elk Grove or Woodside or
Pasadena, whatever city you are, you have a duty and an obligation to follow the law of the state of California.
We will remind you what it is.
We hope you will comply when we point that out.
But if you don't, we will sue you,
we will take you to court,
and you will comply one way or the other.
Unfortunately, today, it was the other.
But they are
complying even more so. There's going to be more housing built because of our
settlement than if they had just originally approved the 66 unit housing
project at Oak Rose. I'm grateful for more housing, but we shouldn't have had
to go through this process. The homes that are being built are homes that the
city needed.
As leaders at the city of Elk Grove, the council and the mayor should know that.
Our housing laws are not suggestions.
They are not recommendations.
They are not optional for your consideration.
They are the law.
They are a shall.
They are a must. They are a mandatory. mandatory says something really egregious at the end though
No, you already got the part. No, no
It's 40 minutes long. So you're gonna have to figure this one out
He says we've discussed just comply just said that no not the way you said the way I've seen
Oh look. All right. Well, I'll do Drew's show prep for it
All right
There's a clip on the internet like a Twitter tweet out there acts out there with a
35 second version of this where he says just compliant if you already saw it drew but in your head it was more egregious
So you think it's coming but you already saw it could be no it did be okay
Did it did be it did be all right you got that now speaking of compliance?
Here's an interesting thing
We were I was just talking to I got to get you in with Michael gate
So he'll give you some hope for the future against do some of the excess
Well, what you can do is you can find his reply to comply
Which was tweeted out and then we can hear his response but this is
stuff you should prep should have prepped for drew all right now speaking
of compliance so I'm gonna change my tune yeah about the Tyree kill thing I
was just talking to Joe oh wait do you have the the the one that got pushed out there and then the response?
Maybe we do.
Or Elk Grove.
We will sue you and we will win as we have if necessary.
And again, we don't want it to be necessary.
We have better things to do than to sue cities
who know better from failing to comply with housing laws.
So just comply, do your part. But this is a strong settlement. We're proud of it.
We're gonna see more housing.
All right, the same as you already said.
All right, speaking of complying,
now I'm gonna fly in the face of my complying.
Because I like not complying with these guys.
But Joe Prano and the other rooms on Tyreke Hill's side.
Okay.
Joe's kind of progressive.
Okay.
And I know how everyone's gonna land on this story.
Okay.
The progressive guys are gonna land on Tyreek Hill side,
and the non are gonna land somewhere else.
Okay.
But I still feel like I...
My argument is always don't argue with the cops
and you'll be fine.
Yeah.
But he disagrees.
Okay. Or he's on But he disagrees. Okay.
Or he's on Tyreek's side.
Okay.
But I don't know what his argument's gonna be,
but I'm curious.
I wanna be on Tyreek's side.
I think the argument is gonna be
the cops overstep their boundaries.
Which is true.
Which is true.
Yeah.
Right, but my argument still goes back to
don't roll your window up when the cop's talking to Yeah, and he definitely did not comply and he instigated
I mean the cop instigated by pulling him over but that's what cops do
Yeah, right. Yeah, and then he rolled this window up. So see if you can get Joe to come in and
Say something. I'm so curious. He's a bright guy, Joe is, what the angle is for Joe.
I'll voice my only concern with it is, I do agree with you, the non-compliance was in the face of the cops,
it was their reaction. And it's kind of tough to watch when there is there's guns and boots and violence in their favor and it's legal violence.
It's just it's it's a difficult thing to watch.
I think they took it to a level that wasn't necessary.
We're saying yeah.
Same thing we're saying.
Although more physical stuff happens to them on the football field if you really want to
break it down.
But Joe, what's your angle?
I'm sorry.
I missed I missed the bring me.
The argument for Tyree Kill.
I don't know if I have the argument for Tyree Kill.
I guess the thing is we live in a world now where, and you guys have been fantastic about
it, which is not complying with every little whim that the government puts in front of us.
So it is weird that whenever we get pulled over
by the police, then we're supposed to do it exactly
as they say, when they say it, and if we don't,
it can immediately escalate, and the answer
from everybody is, well, why didn't you just comply?
It's like, I rolled down my window, I got your thing,
he says give me my ticket, let me go on my way,
I'm gonna be late to the game.
The guy didn't like that, now he's knocking on the window,
now they don't get along and now all of a sudden
he's pulled out and he's thrown on the ground.
It just feels, it feels like for all of us
who kind of agree that the government
is taking a little bit too much control that
That don't tread on me crowd and the blue lives matter a crowd sure do cross over a lot
Well, I I mean I don't like I don't like cops and I don't like that their
reactions and their controls right either, but
if you if you have to let's say
It's like I don't like that. I have to take my belt my shoes off at the fucking airport. That's like I don't like it
It's a huge waste everyone. It's a big waste, but there's no real
Negotiating that like if someone goes all right next step through the metal detector go, no, I'm just gonna go around the metal detector. And then the
guy goes, sir, you have to come through the metal detector. And then I go, I'm a
citizen and I have no criminal record and no attachment to Al Qaeda. At some point,
I'm gonna get tackled. And it's kind of unfortunate, but it's also kind of
baked into this thing, you know. again, the airport security is 100%
innocent people 100% of the time forced to do a bunch of rando shit with people that are
sometimes in a good mood, but sometimes super shitty. And we all just hang our heads. And we
just shuffle through the thing. And you get randomly whatevered for a search
and a pat down, and you're, it's all a ritual, it's all a waste of time, it's baked into
society and there's really nothing we can do about it. And my feeling is, is if you're
willing to put yourself through that at the airport, then you have to be willing to suck it up and kind of
put yourself through it on the streets of Dade County. It's the same thing to me. It's some
fucking idiot who makes the tenth of the money I make hassling me. Like I had to go back
and check a bag that I'd been carrying with me all through the United States because some 23 year old woman of color goes,
you're not getting on the plane.
You can't do that.
And I'll go, let me just take it, it's fine.
Put it in the template.
I put it in the template and it fit.
She's like, it's hanging out like a Dodger dog
over the bun, you know?
And I go, I've traveled here with,
I travel everywhere with this case.
Take it back to the counter and check it out.
It's like, I could have made a thing.
Like I could have, but-
I feel like it's in the same realm,
but do you see how police in America,
it's hanging out over the side is now,
it escalates so much faster.
It feels like the people who become TSA agents
are like one type of person,
and the guys who decide to sign up
to be police in America today
have a whole other lack of patience and quickness to react.
The reality is we see footage of it when it goes wrong.
There's millions of interactions every day
where the fucking Karen behind the wheels being a bitch to the guy, the guy's just kind of eating shit and writing and he's
and she's, there's tons of that that we never really see where like the average cop is getting
shit from the chick, the soccer mom, oh nobody robbed any banks today while she's handing
stuff and he's just like, yeah, okay, just suck it up. So I think if we only see snippets of when it goes south,
then we get a little polluted or skewed at least.
I'm just saying, I don't like it.
I don't know that there's any alternative for like,
well, in the interaction, like let's say the guy rolls
his window up, you should be able to do that as a citizen, that's gonna lead to just weird
chaos. It would lead to the same thing of me at the airport going, you can't
prove I'm a terrorist, I have no criminal record, I passed clear, I'm not going
through the metal detector, I don't like the radiation on my nut sack,
like, it's to get pulled out.
I'm going to be told to leave. I'm going to then explain I'm an American and I have my
rights. And at some point, there will be a headlock. There will be a chokehold involved
with that, and it'll get a little dicey when the chokehold kicks in.
It also feels like cops even sometimes get their way these days and they still react.
Like he was just like, cool, you got me for my seatbelt and my speed.
Give me my ticket.
I'm going to the game.
And that's not sufficient for the cop.
I mentioned it on the show on ACS yesterday.
I was tackled by a cop at the Port Authority bus terminal in New York because I came in
a door, I tried to go back out the door and the cop's like, this door's closed and I was like,
I came in at five seconds ago.
He's like, well it's closed now.
I was like, I'm gonna miss this bus.
I said it's fucking closed and I was like,
all right, you're being a fucking asshole.
And free speech, turned around, walked away.
He now abandons the very important post
that he has to guard, follows me through
the port authority and is like, say it again,
say it again, say it again.
I'm like, you just got your way, I'm not using your door,
now all of a sudden, you wanna keep escalating,
and it's like, you know.
Give Tyree Kill his ticket.
We can't argue if some cops are dicks or not.
Which, that just is.
I feel like it's a barred entry.
You're like, I wanna be in it.
You know what though, I really think all we do is see footage of black men being abused by cops. That's really it
There's there's a lot of good cops. There's a lot of polite cops. I've dealt with decent cops
I've you pull over and it's yes, sir. No, sir. You can get out of a ticket if you're super
Submissive, you know and then people, why should you have to kiss their ass?
I don't know, because you don't get a $821 ticket, maybe.
It was right.
All I'm saying is, is he rolled the window up
mid-exchange and sorry, that's on him.
That's not compliance in any sense.
But why should you have to kiss their ass?
It's like, well.
You shouldn't have to kiss, look, look, you shouldn't, when I was, I always liked it, but when I was leaving Seattle,
I think I was in Seattle a million years ago,
and I was going through TSA,
and there was this old Aunt Esther woman
sitting at the very end on a bench
as I was entering the security line.
And I brought a brand new Starbucks iced coffee
for like $8, and it was like seven in the morning.
And I was walking past her just showing the ID,
but I was getting an idea,
and I was like, oh, I'm gonna go get some coffee. And I was like, oh, I brand new Starbucks iced coffee for like $8 and it was like 7
in the morning and I was walking past her just showing the ID but I was getting in line
and she goes, you throw that coffee way right here and I go, oh I'm going to finish it and
then I'll throw it away before I go through security and she goes, or you can throw it
away here and I go, yeah I just got, I'm going to drink it in line, I'll throw it away and
she goes, well then go on, get.
She yelled get.
If she had a shotgun, she would have pumped it.
And I was like, God, she's been a fucking bitch
to a person that's a traveler's paying or whatever.
I was like, she's fucking rude and she's a bitch.
And I didn't get into it with her.
I didn't, whatever.
There's just, you better adopt that.
I don't think she's right. I don't think
the cops are right. I'm saying that's the society we're living in. Well any society. That's it.
One of the functions of government is a monopoly on violence. That's a function of all government,
period. Whether it's military or police, that is one of the features of human government.
whether it's military or police, that is one of the features of human government.
And given that that's how we roll as human beings, part of that contract is you grant them that and comply with that. Listen, here's my inconsistency. Here's my inconsistent. When Gavin Newsom says
we're closing the beaches, I want everyone to go to the beaches. That's a non-compliance. If a
in the beaches, I want everyone to go to the beaches. That's a noncompliance.
If a Coast Guard guy physically confronted me
at the beach, I would not fight him.
That's a sort of micro-macro, but yes, it's inconsistent.
Now you're talking about civil disobedience.
When a government unjustly applies their authority.
Well, I've decided it's unjust.
He decided it was just.
That's the problem.
That's right, and so you go to do civil disobedience and the courts may have to decide.

All right. What else are you thinking about, Drew?
Well, I was thinking I had some interesting interactions with some young ladies and
there was a certain aspect that I think you have mentioned, and I just wanted to sort of shine a light on it,
which is the repetition, the perseveration,
like the going around, going around,
going around on a topic.
With women.
With women.
Yes.
Where they're describing to you something like, my wife, we need to go to dinner tonight
and we need to leave at six o'clock.
Got it.
Yeah, well, I tell you what, we gotta get going.
We gotta get a 5.30, we're gonna have to leave at six o'clock.
Six o'clock is when we're having dinner.
Do you understand that that's when we're going
and they're gonna wait for us.
Well, okay, so you and I look at it as a waste of time.
Yes. For them,
they're not satiated.
Their anxiety.
Enough.
The anxiety has to be projected onto you.
Well, is it all like, I just ran into this too,
because I had my lady friends say,
you're spread too thin, you're doing all these shows,
you got this special coming up
and here you go doing Cuomo again.
And I go, and you do Cuomo all the time, you know?
And I go, I've done Cuomo three times in my life, probably,
but the last time I did it was in New York
for the first debate with Biden.
That was the last time I did Cuomo.
Yeah, well now you got it again.
I'm like, okay, but it's not,
they send a van to the house,
it's not really being spread thin.
Well, you can't just keep doing Cuomo, you know,
I go, I don't, but I don't do that.
But I won't, fine, I won't.
But the theory of I just keep doing this thing
that I rarely ever do is not a thing.
So I just go, this is fine, all right,
well, I'll do it this one time, because I'm booked, and then we'll not a thing. So I just go, this is fine, all right, well I'll do it this one time,
because I'm booked and then we'll take a break.
Yeah, because you keep doing,
I'm like, okay, first off, the premise is flawed,
I don't do it that much, but then,
but there's energy.
Yes, it has to be discharged.
And it has to be discharged.
And I'm like, okay, first off, it's not really a thing.
It goes, it never less than four go-rounds. Always four go-rounds.
No, sometimes six or eight go-rounds.
I don't think the point is Cuomo.
I think the point is energy being dispelled.
That's my point.
That's my me point, which is that we fear,
you and I feel it as a waste of time
because I got it the first time.
Got it.
Check.
Delivered.
Well, but there's two types of got it's.
There's, you know, don't leave your smelly socks on the rug under the coffee table because
it makes the whole room smell like smelly socks and it gets into the carpet.
A little too specific, but okay.
No, no.
I'm pretty good at socks. But. A little too specific, but okay. No, no.
I'm pretty good at socks.
But the point is, okay, got it, get what it is.
The Cuomo thing is not that practical.
I disagree with the premise.
I rarely ever do Cuomo show.
It's not something, the premise is you're doing Cuomo
so much you can't focus on other things.
And I'm like, I almost never do Como.
So I disagree with the premise,
but I will still go along with the premise
in order to extricate myself from this conversation.
Which I don't really, I look at it as a waste of time
because the premise, I get a lot of like,
you know, a lot of like, you know, a sort of like,
if somebody said to me like, oh my God,
you're eating baked beans again for dinner.
And I'd go, I never eat baked beans for dinner.
Again with the baked beans, you know,
and then you're like, I've done it twice.
You know, it's sort of like when people go,
oh, why don't you have your best friend,
Dinesh D'Souza back on the show?
It's like, Dinesh D'Souza's done the show
two times in 15 years.
I don't have his home number or cell.
He's not my best friend.
I've never spoken to him outside or whatever.
Oh, I got a premise.
This premise is this thing
Yeah, and my feeling is with women most of the time. I
Disagree with your premise because it's what your premise is flawed oftentimes off. Yeah all the
Times often the premise is flawed. Yeah, but I'll go along with it just to try to get out of this thing.
Yeah, that does happen. But even once you comply and agree, there's gonna be two more
go-rounds at least.
Well, the reason is...
You're gonna find yourself saying, yes, I agree, I got it, we'll do that. More than
a few times. No, because this is the situation that I've explained to you
many times all those years ago when I was backing my car out from Hollywood Center Studio
and almost hit the pussy he, she fucking idiot douche never played high school football guy
who was walking behind me who was like, oh my God, you almost hit me, and I just went,
sorry, I didn't see you, my fault.
Well, he wasn't done because he was emotionally charged.
So he had to come around and say, you almost hit me again,
and then I said, sorry, again,
and then he had to circle back a third time a little bit,
few moments later, and explain again that I was him.
Because...
That's a certain personality.
Well, it's chick wiring, but it's also puss wiring,
and that's how those guys feel, and women.
And so they're not done with the emotional part of it.
You could have been done with the practical part of it
a long time ago, but they're still going
with the emotional part of it.
And I don't know that this is.
And all it does is agitate them when you go,
I heard you, it's not gonna happen again.
That's what's also troubling.
And then you start walking out of the room,
and then you hear them yelling from behind you
because they're still not done.
Which, by the way, when I was explaining,
like you were talking about Brett Weinstein
and Evergreen State, the grievance, they're not done.
Right.
It's a grievance thing, it's not a practical thing.
So, but they never go, I have a grievance,
I'm airing my grievance.
They go, I have a practical application.
The LGBT community has a thing,
and then you satisfy that thing,
and then they have another thing,
and then at some point you go,
I don't want middle-aged trannies
shaking their moneymaker in front of three-year-olds
at a library reading Cat in the Hat,
and they go, oh, okay, now we got a grievance.
But that grievance is only because they want a grievance.
I would argue the grievance thing is a little different.
That's like a posture that never goes away while what we're talking about with the go
rounds of emotional content.
I always conceptualize that this is not technically accurate, but I think of it the way I think
of the phenomenon of projective identification.
Certain personality styles need to project their unpleasant feelings into you
and then monkey around with them, amplify them.
No, I know it is true.
I could always hear my mom going,
my mom would always be that thing where I'd go,
oh, I'm doing Letterman this weekend.
So much stress, so stressful.
I'd go, no, it's kind of cool, I get to do Letterman.
Lot of stress, it's very stressful, stressful.
And whenever I would sort of explain to her
that I was working or traveling,
it's a lot of stress, very difficult.
Chip your bottom with a wheel.
A lot of energy, a lot of energy being expelled.
Yeah, I know, I know, I wish I could be comatose.
And hooked up to a fuckin' drip of saline solution.
Like, yeah, but oh, that's stressful, very stressful.
You know, and I would always go,
no, no, that's what I wanna do.
So it was a lot of projecting.
I think women probably project, they do a lot of that.
You know, my dog thinks he's a person.
You know, look at him.
Look at Mitz, he thinks he's a person.
Put him in a stroller, put shoes on him.
Put a sweater and shoes on him.
He needs a sweater and shoes. He thinks he's a person. Put him in a stroller. Put shoes on him. Put a sweater and shoes on him. He needs a sweater and shoes.
He thinks he's a person.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's a lot.
Mitzi thinks that.
Mitzi.
Maybe you think that about Mitzi.
Hmm.
Yeah, so yeah, I mean, that's kind of what you're dealing with.
The fastest way to shut me down, which is funny because most of my arguments with people
are just because they don't go, will do, won't happen again.
Oh boy.
But they don't.
They just keep going and going and going.
But I would like the will do, won't happen again, because I don't come back for round
two.
Because why would I want to come back with round two?
You just said will do, won't happen again.
That's how I work.
But it's a kind of a pragmatism,
but it's also kind of based on
extra superfluous kind of speak, you know?
And it's a weird, and energy.
You're speaking to communicate something.
Once it's communicated, it's done. I don't even you know, it's so funny
it's like and I guess we just do it, you know, like when they have the
Mother of the fallen soldier from Benghazi they get up there in front of Congress and they have it like a prepared statement
And they go, you know my Stevie went he
enlisted and the Marines in 1992, and there's nothing
I can say to bring him back.
And I wish he was here today.
And no matter what we do today, I'll never be able to hug Stevie again.
And there's no amount of congressional oversight
that can ever bring, and it's like,
I always just wanna go, yes, yes, of course.
No shit, I get it.
Like it's a shit position for you to be in.
But all the kind of extra talk,
it just bugs the shit out of me.
And when politicians do it,
it really bugs the shit out of me.
And when they do it, it really bugs the shit out of me. And when they do it during, also there's just a lot of redundancy talk where people just
go, I believe that people need to be treated in a fair and not an unfair manner.
It's like you just had it with fair. fair and not an unfair manner.
It's like you just had it with fair.
We didn't have to circle to the next thing it wasn't.
Like it's a lot of just extra kind of dressing talk
which I think exclusively is kind of coming from dumb people.
And I kind of get insulted by it.
Because I might have got it.
So the grieving mother from the embassy tragedy, I don't, because she drives a school bus for
a living and this is not her realm. And so she's baked in some platitudes to kind of pad the speech
a little bit and make things a little easier on herself. It's the politicians who do, you know, a little easier on herself. It's the politicians who do, you know,
after the school shooting, they go, it's never okay.
This is 100% unacceptable.
This is not unacceptable.
It's like, it just happened.
It's already done.
You can get up there and talk about it never being okay.
You can talk about how unacceptable it is.
But it's 20 minutes old. So it did happen. and talk about it never being okay. You can talk about how unacceptable it is.
But it's 20 minutes old.
So it did happen.
I mean, you could say that about,
you could say that about the 49ers
losing the Super Bowl last year.
But KC won the Super Bowl.
But it could be unacceptable, I guess.
I don't even know that- I don't even know that.
It's interesting how we get back to this.
I don't even know what unacceptable means
about things that already happen.
Right.
Which is another weird
world we've drifted into. But as usual,
looking at sports helps clarify things.
Yes.
And it doesn't exist.
It doesn't exist within sports.
