Starting point is 00:00:00 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Tim Dylan show here. It is Thanksgiving weekend. We are pre-recording this show quite a few days before the actual holiday. We have many, many things to do. We've got a real special guest coming up that'll come out on Monday. Yeah. Next week. Next week. come out on Monday. Yeah. Next week. Next week. And then we're taking a, we're taking a little holiday.
Starting point is 00:00:29 So you've got, you're gonna have two episodes to binge. And then we'll see you in December, probably, or late November. However that works. And I'm very excited about this guest. No, a Tishby coming back. Oh, stop. Why am I, why would I stop?
Starting point is 00:00:51 Why would I ever stop? I'll never stop. Try and get no one to come back on this show and tank it further in views. That episode tank so badly that I should have Hezbollah on every day for a week because that thing ate it. What are you gonna do? Timothy Shalame, what's going on over here in Japan?
Starting point is 00:01:25 Or I think he's promoting the wonka film. I just don't love this. Let's just take a look at this here. I don't, I mean, that is that? Are they in the film? No. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not. So they're just making...
Starting point is 00:01:49 It feels like those children have been, they've had to do that and food has been withheld from them until they did it just like that. Like I feel like, I don't even, he seems like he's like, oh, whoa, what's going on? Wow. One more time there. It's just uncomfortable.
Starting point is 00:02:18 One, two, five, two, five, two. Are they children or are they like, do they have a disease where they're like 30 like the dog big girl like uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh Zao Zao and Wu Long. Zao Zao is a 36 year old, yeah, this one. Go to the third one down there. This is a good one. She is from a province in China, and she's big on Chinese TikTok, and her friend Wu Long is kind of a hunchback
Starting point is 00:03:00 and Zao Zao has her own issues. But, and this transgender presenter in China, China seems kind of fun. Like I know that we're all supposed to be afraid of China, but if this is what's going on in China, count me in. They've got this transgender presenter who's very polished and put together, who looks very good. She's like
Starting point is 00:03:25 going the full, you know, she's really, she's going the full, you know, whatever it is, you know, doing it, uh, I don't want to say right, but doing it well. It's nice. You know, I'm going to get in trouble for saying this and I, and people are are gonna get angry with me and I don't know what I'm just saying Sometimes it's nice to see a transgender person really try Do you understand what I mean? Because I like effort in every part of life Do you understand? It's not I'm only I'm not simply requiring it of someone who's transitioning or changing genders.
Starting point is 00:04:09 I want it all over the place, but I do like it when I see someone who is transgender really commit to it and really try to the best of their own financial ability, Martin Orman used to have a great joke about that, where he was like, people say this one's brave, she's just rich or whatever, you know? But I like to see somebody try, which this host in China is doing, and this is kind of like, I guess, to Chinese American idol in a way.
Starting point is 00:04:42 I don't know if that's what it is, but let's give everyone a taste of this. If you don't know who these people are, this will be cultural prediction here. This will be more common. We are going to find people that are deformed because this is kind of the final phase of society where it's really the barbarism is coming. Every week I try not to do this. By the way, like every week I go, I drive here and I go, you know, I know why I'm not as big as like other people.
Starting point is 00:05:18 It's just because it's like, how much can you take of this, right? Like even me, like even me sometimes, right? I'm like, how much can I take? Like I want to do other things. Like I had a nice friends giving. I talk about that. I could talk about entertaining. I like, I like throwing, you know, parties and seeing people get together. Who cares, right? But I get it. Like, like I was like today on the way here. I was like, I'm not going to do the whole. It's all the empire is falling in a clifte. I'm not going to do it.
Starting point is 00:05:47 I really, I sometimes I don't want to do it, but it's just, it's now what is there. It's a show if it's, you know, there's, it's hard to infer anything else from the news. It's my point. It's difficult. I tried to to infer. We're gonna go later. Fox News literally has an article that's like, here's how you can have a Thanksgiving without killing people that you know, because they're so used to the people that watch Fox News is being like, I guess like monsters that they literally every line is like, well, you know, you don't, you know, don't keep a loaded gun at the table. Like it's such a crazy article, but what I mean here about Zhao Zhao and Wu Long
Starting point is 00:06:38 and I think why they're an important, you know, I know that, I mean that even as I say this, it seems insane. But what's important about Jao Jao and Wu Long is that, I believe what's coming is a real fascination with deformed people, kind of freaks. It's going back to the 1920s as it was in the beginning, as it shall be in the end, I believe we are going back to the kind of tent era depression, tent era carnival side show circus. This is what I believe. This is kind of the final form of a lot of the trends that we've seen on the internet. These people are probably being abused or being used, but they're getting their fame.
Starting point is 00:07:26 And, you know, people are going to say, this is a good thing. You know, people debate this to go, these are, these people are being abused. And then other people are, no, they're not. They love it. And no one knows what's going on. Because no one lives in this crazy province of China. But I think her family is probably like we're making a little bit of money here. People like to, she's an oddity. She's an oddity.
Starting point is 00:07:51 And this was the thinking behind the freak show, right? This person is an oddity, but why not pay money to see them? Because so this is what a lot of TikTok has become. We are putting humans on display and human oddities. And we are marveling at them. We're gawking. And the latest manifestation of this is Zhao Zhao and Wu Long. Who by the way, I feel an affection for both of them. And I enjoy what they're doing. Zhao Zhao is a kicks and hits because she's often angry at others, which I often feel very enraged. And I feel kind of envious of her
Starting point is 00:08:48 her ability to kind of just kind of woo long, her friend who only I've read about them for several hours. And woo long. I got a party is funny. You know, I had this friends giving. And I, you talk, what I like about it is you don't talk to anyone for that long. You do your little thing with everybody. You go over to Caitlyn Jenner, how are you? She's talking about patriotism. Love it. Go over to Barry Weiss.
Starting point is 00:09:17 What's your deal? The Jews? Good. Moving on. We go over to Tanimojo, like her. What's going on with the bussey. You just quick, quick in and out. Bobby Lee, lovely to meet your girl.
Starting point is 00:09:32 This one, that one, that one, you know, Santino, a bunch of people came. But for a lot of the party, I was reading about Jiao Jiao and Wulong because I was, I'm transfixed. And they said this all started because, Xiao Xiao, they were doing some type of benefit for Xiao Xiao. They brought her out, she sang a song and people liked it.
Starting point is 00:09:53 Supposedly Wu Long only spoke one word before she started doing social media. These are the Chinese Demilios. You know how we have Charlie Demilio and Dixie Demilio? This is what they have. And I take these two over the Demilios any day of the week without further ado, if you don't know them, you will. They're going to be household names. Is this show part of the problem or part of the solution? I don't know him, you will. They're going to be household names. Is this
Starting point is 00:10:26 so part of the problem or part of the solution? I don't know. I don't know if there's a real difference. Xiao Xiao and Mulan. I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I I need I need I need I need I I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need I need Chao-jee on Wu Long. Find them support them on other channels. Wu Long doesn't sing often. She's chill, but she does sing sometimes. You know, this is what's happening. This is where life is going. Fox News just ran an article. Fox News likes to run articles occasionally. Where they're basically like, listen, occasionally you're going to go into the world and, Occasionally, you're going to go into the world and, you know, friend of mine lives down a floor to just open the QAnon store. This is true.
Starting point is 00:11:32 She opened the QAnon boutique in like a, in a old motel. In Florida, they just let you transact business, which I like. So they have these old motels. And we'll talk about the commercial real estate crash in a little bit too. But she opened this kind of, it's just a QAnon store. It just looks like a hoarder's house.
Starting point is 00:11:56 She's got like games from the 90s that kids can buy like fun Trump sweatshirts. It's just a Q and on boutique in Florida from people that are older, that are in the area and want to go to the Q and on store, you know. And so what Fox News has to do every now and then is run an article where they're basically like, hey, you're going to have relatives that don't shop at your QAnon store and you're going to have to eat turkey with them. How do you do it?
Starting point is 00:12:35 How do you do it? If someone, it's very funny because the whole premise of the whole thing is like, someone's coming to your house. They don't agree with you. How can you do it? How to handle combative relatives during the holidays? Welcome to attend with conditions. And this is on the Fox News website because Fox news, by the way, for years has been promoting all manner of crazy things, like a lot of news organizations do. MSNBC, any of them, their job, if you watch the prime time lineup is not to inform you,
Starting point is 00:13:21 the job is to wind you up and send you out into the world like a whirling dervish where you are just anywhere you can go spread the gospel. But now they're right. Every now and then they'll throw out an article where they're like, Hey, it's Thanksgiving. So, okay, there might be people that shop at your house that do not, they're not, they don't get it like you get it. They're not in the program like you're in the program. They don't know about the underground tunnels you do. So, you're gonna have to just make a choice. You're gonna have to ban them from speaking
Starting point is 00:14:07 or you're gonna have to set boundaries because it's your house and you get to decide what's real and what's not in your house. This is your reality. They're stepping into your reality. So whatever you've decided is the truth, they got to subscribe to that. Quote, if you're worried about the possibility of fights or quarrels or over any number of topics during the holiday season, mental health experts, which by the way, what a great term and God only knows.
Starting point is 00:14:47 Mental health experts shared strategies and insights for how to diffuse arguments and how to speak to relatives about your concerns. Don't buy into the belief that you have a perfect family or that the holiday will be perfect. Said Jonathan Alpert, a psychotherapist to the belief that you have a perfect family or that the holiday will be perfect, said Jonathan Alpert, a psychotherapist and executive performance coach, right?
Starting point is 00:15:10 Right, always, right? Right? Go back up. Executive performance coach. It's always something else when these experts weigh in. It's never like just some type of doctor. It's like doctor and con artist like psychotherapist and con artist and you know, Primeraca, executive. It's a psycho therapist and sales Mary K. Cosmetics. This person has practices in Manhattan and Washington DC and author of the book Be Fearless
Starting point is 00:15:56 Change Your Life in 28 Days, which you know, I'm sure has a lot of valuable information on being fearless and changing your life in 28 days. If you want to, by adjusting your expectations, you're less likely to be disappointed and stressed should something not go according to plan and you'll be able to take the pressure off yourself. If you know and advance this bad blood between relatives, what can you do? Talk to people ahead of time. Hold a conversation with them separately about your expectations of their behavior. Said Amy Mauren, a psychotherapist, an author of 13 things mentally strong people don't do. So Fox just tells you if it will plug your books, just hmm. Just weigh in. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:45 weigh into this article about how people can behave. We got to give advice to our regular viewers about how they can behave like people for two hours out of the year. weigh in here and we'll plug your book about 13 things mentally strong people don't do. Hit number 13, look at the poor. They don't do it because they're mentally strong. Make it clear that they're welcome to attend, but that arguing or rude behavior won't be tolerated. After all, you have others to think about, including your loved ones and possibility, and possibly your children, and many other people you care about deeply. Refuse to take sides, reconsider serving alcohol.
Starting point is 00:17:40 Can you ever just pick one relative over another? Yes. You can certainly just pick one relative over the other. Sometimes family riffs stem from serious issues like childhood abuse, crime or substance abuse. You don't have to invite people to your home just because they are related to you. Right. So if someone in your family is raped everyone in a family, Fox News is telling you, you don't have to invite them. But what if they agree with me?
Starting point is 00:18:14 Well, that's tough. That's hard. If the rapist is on your side politically, it becomes different, you know, you're a neutral party who wants to invite everyone and you aren't interested in listening to complaints about the other person. You might decide to pick one relative because you want them to feel emotionally safe or because you want them to attend the gathering
Starting point is 00:18:34 and they wouldn't if the other person was there. Do you warn both people to be on their best behavior ahead of time? Who is this for? Who is this? Who is this for? Who is this? Who is this for? What person is sitting at home going, God, I just, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know how to do it. Look at this. What if the relative isn't at odds with a particular guest, but just hasn't come that in personality? Foxes, they're basically like, what is this person is going to come there and say something you're uncomfortable with? What do you do?
Starting point is 00:19:15 What can you do? How do you turn your Thanksgiving table into a fascist dictatorship of which you are the dictator? That's really what it comes down to. That's the whole article. The whole article is like, how do you? Because they bury it in the mental health crap, which they don't care about at all. And they're basically like, yeah, how can you avoid a disagreement? How can you avoid disagreement? Now, several people have the benefit of armies or intelligence services that will disappear people that disagree with them. Now you may not have the financial wearerful to do that or you may live in a type of place where murder and is outright illegal.
Starting point is 00:20:01 So what you have to do is find different ways to shut down anyone that would disagree with you about anything. Because we hear Fox, we know what you want to do. We know what you want to do. You've hosted the event and you've hosted the event because you want to basically get everyone around the table and yell and scream about the Guatemalans. Now that's fine, but someone might ruin this by going, hey, they're people kind of, right? Like the softest defense, they might provide like the thinnest defense of, for example, like, like somebody at the kitchen table might be like, you know, it feels like 12,000 people, a lot of people to kill in Gaza.
Starting point is 00:20:54 They'd be like, you're out of line. You're turning this holiday upside down. You sick fuck. Fox news. How do you turn your Thanksgiving into a fascist dictatorship where everyone is afraid to have a different opinion? Look at this. I love this.
Starting point is 00:21:12 How do you keep hot topics out of the conversation? This is very, Fox goes, this is very difficult to do as we cannot control other people. By the way, this is not, there's no idea here. Like, so we're supposed to believe that the person who's reading this on Fox news.com is just a innocent wall flower who's terrified. This is the Fox news watcher. They're terrified about people coming to their house and starting up. It's very difficult to do is we cannot control other people. However, if and when hot topics come up, you can set a boundary by saying something like, let's not get into XYZ. It could be controversial and we're all having a good time. Why don't we talk about ABC instead? Can you say to a relative, I can't have this in my home again. I can't
Starting point is 00:22:16 have this in my home again like last year. And by it, I mean, your mixed race child. I think it would be better if you visited another day. As challenging as it may be to tell a relative not to come to a holiday, it might be what it would be. It's just the premise of this is hilarious. The idea of Fox News Watcher is like, well, we just like to have a Thanksgiving that's uncomplicated, but then people come in with all their ideas.
Starting point is 00:22:44 All their ideas. And me and my husband just sit there and we're just sitting there and serving everybody at Turkey and reading mine comp. But then these kids come in with their ideas. Think about what is in the best interest of the group. How are Wellian is all this? That's the idea. So are Wellian. A conversation like this can lead to hard feelings,
Starting point is 00:23:08 but having a relative come over who does not get along with other relatives can also lead to hard feelings. What is it? Like what world are we living in? Where there's articles being written about like, hey man, someone might come to your house and you might have a disagreement.
Starting point is 00:23:27 Here's a 10 point plan to make sure that doesn't happen. I mean, how crazy is that? And then everybody's like, Everybody's in a bubble. Everyone's in a wise everyone in such a bubble. Everyone's in a wise everyone in such a bubble Everyone's in a buffed feedback loop nobody's uh, yeah Because you have articles telling people It's the mildest disagree like make sure draw the lines draw the battle lines before they get there Let them know. It's a guys
Starting point is 00:24:00 Let's shit fly. Let it fucking happen. It's Thanksgiving That's what it's supposed to be. People are supposed to disagree and fight. It's supposed to be uncomfortable. People are supposed to sit on a couch in that trip to fan haze in a coma from the turkey. And they're supposed to just start fighting about nonsense start fighting, you know, about nonsense. That's the whole point of the holiday. They're supposed to argue. Everybody is so ill informed at
Starting point is 00:24:33 a holiday party. It's great. And then they're all tired and drunk. And they don't really know what they're talking about. And that's when you get real raw, fun collisions of bad ideas that both parties have. And that's what we should do. Why are we trying to avoid that? It's the literal point of the holiday. It's the point of the, you don't care about seeing your cousin for the most part. It's fun to watch stuff pop off. When my father and his wife brought their dogs to my grandmother's house, and my uncle flipped out and screamed about it, and he was in the right, by the way,
Starting point is 00:25:12 you just stop bringing your dog's places if they're not in fightin'. It's just what it is. I love my father and his wife, but I'm just saying, in this particular instance, I thought my uncle had a point there. I think that's good
Starting point is 00:25:29 Why avoid that? You know I grew up in an Irish family where people fought a lot sometimes physically there was a lot of You know there were a lot of loud people a lot of opinions a lot of hostility being expressed I think that's Incredibly healthy. I don't think avoiding all of that is good. I think it's part of the fun. Part of the fun of a Thanksgiving is to get it going. Like if you're a young per-tell him, tell him you're in Hamas at Thanksgiving. Go, I am in Hamas. them you're in Hamas at Thanksgiving. Go, I am. Have fun. You only live what these are the memory, you're making memories. I mean, what's the point?
Starting point is 00:26:37 Everything that has any value is a controversial topic for the most part. So I mean, I guess you could just talk about yourselves like a bunch of narcissists, but immediately get it. I'm immediately get into the Middle East. It's why they're fighting over there. So we can talk about it at our Thanksgiving table. That's why it's happening. What did it come, Moss? Did it with a bunch of power? You think they did it for nothing? They did it so that you can talk about it while you're stuffed marshmallows in your face.
Starting point is 00:27:11 That's the benefit of living in America up until the point everybody nukes us, which is coming. But the benefit of living in America is being able to discuss things that have real consequences for other people. And you get to discuss them quite flippantly and casually. You get to discuss life and death decisions pretty casually with no information. You're, we're all, it's all a kind of game of thronesy with the goblets of wine and eating their turkey.
Starting point is 00:27:43 Well, you get better. You got to kill them. We got to kill them. Good. with the goblets of wine and eating the turkey, well, you get better, you gotta kill him, you gotta kill him, good, good, good, good. Well, they have to do it, because they're in a hot, they're under the hospital. That's why you don't know, because they're in school, those people. So, when the kids are in the school,
Starting point is 00:27:57 but you gotta kill the people, it under the school, that's where it is. That's what you have to do. This is the benefit of being an American. The benefit of being an American is that you get to engage quite casually in discussions and topics that they have real consequences for people all over the world and you get to just sound off on them.
Starting point is 00:28:24 From the minute you can talk, you're allowed to do this and there's no better time to do it. Then the holidays, there's no better time. There's a captive audience. Everybody's eating and drinking. You don't see these people a lot. It's good to see what they're into and about. Why not? Why avoid it? What are you gonna fucking talk about? It's so boring if you're gonna, like, I like a little bit of, and you know, we were pretty, we would fight about personal things,
Starting point is 00:29:03 my family, more so than political. But I don't think there's anything wrong with having a knockdown drag out of what by two ill informed people on either side of an issue that don't really have any facts and are arguing to mask the emotional problems that they are having that don't have anything to do with this issue that they don't really care that much about. I don't think there's anything wrong with masking the emotional pit of the spare you were in because you're in a loveless marriage by screaming about Gaza. I don't think there's anything wrong with it. I think it's American is apple pie. If apple pie is American, going to Thanksgiving with your loveless wife, your loveless marriage, your wife who hates
Starting point is 00:29:56 you and you hate her and you just, you know, you're just doing it. You're doing it because you've been doing it for a while, but you know what's coming to an end and you know dating after 40 and great. And you know, there's going to be a lot of lonely nights. You're going to have to get back on the horse and you know your wife, uh, but you know, it's basically, she's going to rebound a lot quicker than you and that bothers you too. And you know, you know, this, you know it. And as you drive your moderately expensive SUV, uh, to, SUV to your brother's house, who always had more money than you, he was always a little better looking than you. His family is a little better than yours.
Starting point is 00:30:31 He cheats on his wife. She doesn't really mind. Or maybe she doesn't even know. She's dumb. She's from the south. You should've married a southern woman, but you didn't. You married a New Yorker and she was smart. She went to Vassar.
Starting point is 00:30:42 She was smarter than you. She pretended she didn't want or care about money, but you know down deep she did. And you know down deep she looks at your brother's house and his car and things like that. All the things that you pretended not to care about, well, it turns out she was a fucking liar because she makes a lot of passive aggressive comments about your income level and it bothers you.

The commercial real estate crisis is deepening. And it's something that suggests a reckoning is coming. After COVID, people did not return to work. They didn't. After COVID, people did not return to work.
Starting point is 00:35:45 They didn't. They can see rates are high. What's the big one that just went out of business? We work. We work was like Airbnb for companies. They would just have these office spaces, thousands, tens of thousands of square feet for people that needed to work. Now everybody's working from home.
Starting point is 00:36:16 People don't go into offices as much. People do not have those communities that they used to have. I mean, offices are huge. There are workplace comedies in America. There was a hit show called The Office, right? You're amputating a major part of American culture. If you just send everybody into their house. The office is where people meet their friends, is where people meet people.
Starting point is 00:36:46 They're going to marry. It's where, you know, they have a lot of the formative experiences as a younger intern or as somebody you're looking at these old people in your office and you're going, fuck, I don't want to end up like that guy. Or God, you know, what I wouldn't give to end up like that guy. And I worked in tons of them and I know exactly that that is what's happening and I worked with them as a young guy having those things. When you It's very interesting to look at the evolution of physical society into a digital one,
Starting point is 00:37:27 which is what's happening, where the new office is a Zoom meeting, it's a Microsoft meetup or whatever it's called, Google hangout, whatever these things are called. And that's the new office and people are not going into a physical structure and they are staying home and they are, you know, more isolated than they've been. And they don't, they don't know their co-workers as well as they would have if they sat next to them or went to lunch with them.
Starting point is 00:37:59 When you are face to face with somebody, the relationship you build is different than the one that you build digitally. This is just Mark Zuckerberg might, he might not want to hear that. The people that are making billions of dollars, shutting everybody into their homes and it, you know, hooking them up to a computer like an IV, don't want to hear that it is significant to be in someone's physical presence, sitting there, talking to them, hearing them. Instead diminishing everything to online
Starting point is 00:38:35 is I think going to be quite a negative for people. I don't think it's good for people to work. Number one, I don't think it's good for people's marriages. And we saw this during the pandemic. I think people have to get out, get out of their house. You know, I have lots of friends at work from home and some of them it works out, but some of them,
Starting point is 00:39:04 it's not working out. It's it's it's it's putting a strain on the marriage to be in the same house every minute of every day and There they don't have the social you know community that they had. But commercial real estate is probably going to collapse. People cannot get loans
Starting point is 00:39:31 the way the commercial mortgages work is that. People are constantly refinancing them. They're constantly modifying them. And if they can't get new loans, those things are hard to do. And they head into foreclosure. This is from the post, a commercial real estate market is headed for a severe collapse due to in large parts sky high interest rates and declining property values. Nobody wants
Starting point is 00:39:57 these properties anymore because they know it's not boom times. They know they're not going to get the rents that they would want. They know that a lot of these properties gonna sit vacant. When asked when they believe the price of office properties will hit bottom, 44% said they expected that to happen in the second half of next year, while 22% said it will be in the final six months of 2024. Just 6% of the 919 respondents said that prices would bottom out this year. So people think this is a long slide.
Starting point is 00:40:33 30% of people are saying it won't bounce back till 2025 or beyond. The fed is raised, raised aggressively over and over again. And there is just less, which is why, you know, it's like, you know, my friend who's got a little a Q&A boutique in Florida, you know, it's in an old motel. And it's kind of clever what they're doing there because they have this old motel, where you can set up a boutique of the Maggashit and the Qunan memorabilia regalia. Why not? Why not?
Starting point is 00:41:16 You know, I'm telling you right now, some 270 billion in commercial real estate loans held by banks are set to mature in 2023. According to TREP, over the next four years, commercial real estate properties must pay off debt maturities that will peak at $550 billion according to analysts and Morgan Stanley. Vacancy rates are at 30 year highs in many American cities. Q one of 2023, New York City, they can see rate 22.2%. That is the most dynamic city in the world, the largest central business district in the
Starting point is 00:41:59 world, New York. Wow. San Francisco, I mean, forget it. The vacancy rate in San Francisco is, I don't know exactly what it is, but I imagine it's very high. And this is a, this is a, this is a bigger story. I think that people realize because what it signifies is the collapse of a way of life for many people for a very long time. It doesn't mean that it's going to be 33.9%. They can see rate San Francisco.
Starting point is 00:42:43 34%. They can see rate San Francisco. 34% vacant space office buildings just sitting there. Nobody working. They go, yeah, yeah, I'm good. I'll do it from home. Yeah, Donna, Donna came in to work yesterday. She got slashed. What?
Starting point is 00:43:03 Don, you know, Donna, well, Donna came in to the office. She got slashed across What? Don, you know, Donna, well, Donna came into the office. She got slashed across her face. Yeah. So we're at list interest. If you're going to come in, be careful. Yeah, I think I'll just work from home. That's fine too.
Starting point is 00:43:17 But if you're going to just come in like, we're telling everyone to use the market street entrance because, you know, Donna used the kind of main entrance and somebody just came up to her and and and and and slashed her. Thank God it was, you know, it wasn't a knife. It was a pen but she has ink poisoning and they just kind of jabbed that her with a pen a few times. But you know, Donna, she's not a small woman and she fought back. So I mean, they're saying it's not nearly as bad as it should have been. Well anyway, get me that report when you can't. It's not a good time in San Francisco to get people into the office.
Starting point is 00:43:55 But I don't know where it is. I don't know where it is. Where people are, obviously there's certain jobs you have to be in an office, but there's a lot of jobs. People are doing them on the fly. They're not, they're going at, they're like, fuck it, dude, I'll work from Starbucks. I don't give a shit. I don't care. It's going to be a thing of the past to go, you're sit there, you have an office. People used to take pride in their office. They used to sit all day and they'd fuck their backup and they'd order big lunches and they do nothing really.
Starting point is 00:44:34 I mean, they would work for an hour or two and then, but this was people's life. This is a big part of the Americana going to the office to crazy secretary, the boss, who's riding ya. Your buddy Steve, the fantasy football group, crazy secretary, Doreen. You know, this So this is what Americana, we're losing Americana. The hot receptionist you think you got a shot with, but you don't. All of these things are being traded in for the sterile, horrible zoom culture. horrible zoom culture. We're a bunch of disheveled people from their disgusting homes. Log on to a hellscape. It's really depressing to
Starting point is 00:45:39 me. I was a, you know, I'm a big proponent of work and I think offices are great. You know, a lot of people don't like that. My socialist comrades hate this because they envision that work has no meaning and life would be better if no one had to work. Just like during the pandemic, when no one had a job, remember how peaceful that was?
Starting point is 00:46:04 Remember how peaceful and ideal that was when nobody worked? But I love offices. I love them. I like being in them. I like being in them now. And I know it's a terribly unpopular thing to say. People hate them. They're miserable.
Starting point is 00:46:21 I've been miserable in them too. You got to plot your way out or your way up or something, but they're not nearly as bad as it could be. When you look at the way, you know, there's a hell of a lot of people in developed countries, even countries like Russia, as a developed country, a lot of those people would love to go do data entry in a long Island office and drink a cup of coffee with French vanilla creamer in it and sit there fat ass in a chair and just click.
Starting point is 00:46:55 I mean, listen, is it particularly inspiring? No. But when you look at the realities of lots of people's lives, it gives you a purpose. We had this guy George used to deliver mail. He was like deformed, but or he had cancer like melanomas on him. But he came every day. He was so happy to deliver the mail to the office. He wasn't some schmuck delivering mail on the street. Those people are pedophiles. He was delivering it to the office.
Starting point is 00:47:27 And sometimes the big guy would come out and go, hey, George, and they remembered his name. And like, where do people like that go? Where do people like that Natalya? She was so big. But she waddled in and sat her, and she was good at what she did. Where do these people go? Where do people go who derive a sense of purpose and belonging from their job, which is,
Starting point is 00:47:57 again, something that a lot of people don't understand because they live in a fantasy world that everybody's going gonna have a Disney adventure on the planet and get absolutely everything they want and they have all of these passions that they just are like, this job's keeping me from my passion, man. I gotta go out there and show the world how special I am. But like a lot of people actually derive a certain amount
Starting point is 00:48:29 of fulfillment and meaning from their job in an office, doing nothing. It's not that important what they're doing. They're just not sitting in their kitchen. It's forced social interaction for a lot of these people. And it worries me because I think if you get rid of these spaces and you just send people back, you know, back to their kitchen tables and companies hire less people, you just end up with a lot of disaffected, unemployed people that are
Starting point is 00:49:11 even more isolated than they were before. And that bothers me. It's not a bad world, the corporate world in, in, in the sense that it's miserable in the way, like, I have friends in it and all they do is complain how much they hate it. But if you measure their lives against people's lives all over the place, they have superior lives. They have superior lives to a lot of, not everybody, but a lot of people. And I know it's the coolest thing in the world to be like, fuck the corporate, it sucks, everything sucks,
Starting point is 00:49:53 you have fucking elevator, fucking loses, guys on my back, he wants this report or that. But you know, listen, compared to what, what's the alternative? what's the alternative? What's the alternative? I don't know. Sitting in your home, sitting in the office you've made in your den. I don't know, dude.
Starting point is 00:50:17 That just seems, I know people with a lot of freedom and sometimes too much freedom is a bad thing. I would love, even though I do what I do here, I would love to. I would love to work a couple of days a week at a guy co. I would love that. I'd absolutely love for a couple of days a week to just work at, either a car insurance or something to just kind of have a, to have that feeling of like getting in there, you get your cup of coffee, sit down,
Starting point is 00:50:52 you open folders, you open a couple of files, you get on the computer, here comes the emails, we're all rolling each other, we're all rolling eyes, looking at each other like can you fucking believe this? Can you believe this? Cunt, you know, you go out, you smoke a cigarette with somebody, talk about the company, talk about the business.
Starting point is 00:51:13 It's nothing better than that. There's nothing better than being at a dead end job with other losers. I'm telling you, all I'm around right now is successful wealthy people. It's terrible. It's miserable and horrible, horrible. They all just want to take ayahuasca. It's all these people want
Starting point is 00:51:30 to do is they're also goddamn rich. All they want to do is take a ayahuasca and open their third eye and fourth eye and fifth eye. They want to all keep just taking different forms of DMT until the aliens get so sick of them in hyperspace and keep going, you again? These aliens are in the other dimension going, well, you go to work, get a job. All these people are just every, every need, you know, every like every need has been removed from their lives. So they're just like endlessly trying to explore their inner child, like fingering their inner child all the time. It's like it's so annoyed.
Starting point is 00:52:14 You can barely have a real conversation with any of them because they're up their own ass so far that they're like, it's crazy. So there's nothing better than being at a dead end job with broke losers who have given up because then you're going to actually have the best conversation. You know, some of the deepest, realist conversations I've ever had with anybody have certainly not my friends giving, but the deepest realist conversation I've had with anybody
Starting point is 00:52:56 have been outside of like a call center or a mortgage office or whatever, smoking a cigarette and an empty parking lot, going what the fuck are we gonna do? How are, how does this, you become like war buddies in a shitty job where people aren't going anywhere, you actually have, it becomes fun. Now yes, there's negatives to that. I'm not an idiot.
Starting point is 00:53:31 But what I am saying is like you close down all the offices, you throw away all the French vanilla creamer, you throw away all the curigs. What do you think happens? What do you think happens to people? What do you think happens? What do you think happens to people when you send them back to their domiciles and tell them to work from home? We would have fun razors and stuff.
Starting point is 00:53:54 You know, this is, now people hate it, people hate it. It's a, a, a, a, roundly criticize as being a meaningless, a meaningless way to spend your life. It's what as being a meaningless, a meaningless way to spend your life. That's what a meaningless,
Starting point is 00:54:09 what a meaningless way to spend your life in a corporate, corporate America. It's meaningless. It's so mean to provide for your wife and kids. God, it's meaningless. Didn't you ever want to paint? And this idea that everybody is just shoving all their dreams down deep into them and then going,
Starting point is 00:54:33 and there's some of that for sure, but also we're trying to sit, we're running a society here. Someone's got to work. Not everyone can fuck around all that, not everyone's going to be a millionaire because can fuck around all that. Not everyone's gonna be a million air cuz they invented a sock company. People are going to need to work. Someone's gotta be a cog in a machine. Someone's gotta be that guy. Someone's gotta be the guy that
Starting point is 00:54:59 walks into the office. You go, oh god, it's him. Someone's got to be that. Someone's got, someone's got to be that the male guy. George, who's happy to give you the male. Stay, where do these people go? Everybody's not going to this whole like ethos of like online hustler culture that we think that like everybody is just one crap psychology book away from being the CEO of their own empire is got to stop. It's got to go a convention is nice going to a corporate convention with other losers is nice trying to get laid in a corporate convention in Cleveland, Ohio is a good life. You're not going to be a court dash. It does not happening. It's not going to happen.
Starting point is 00:55:58 You're you're things that are good. The most fun you're going to have is in a bar in Cleveland, Ohio, at the convention for paralegals. I don't know what people do, but the point is this is a good thing. I'm telling you that the demise of commercial real estate is bad. I worry about it. Nothing would make me happier than for a day or two to just be part of a corporate culture again. To go in and get an email, get an email, turn around on my body like, hey man, he goes, you were out yesterday. Ooh, Deb was on a tear. Deb was on a tear.
Starting point is 00:56:47 Dude, Deb was on a fucking tear. Maybe trouble at home or something, but that bitch is sick. Sick. Like those conversations never happen. You're not allowed, it's like, when you work in those jobs, you're allowed to hate. It's jobs, you're allowed to hate.
Starting point is 00:57:06 It's encouraged. You're allowed to hate. You're allowed to be bitter, resentful. And then, you know, how are you gonna do that at home? That'll ruin your marriage. Your wife doesn't care about your job. She doesn't wanna hear about how much I hate everybody. That's why you have an office, you have friends, you have buddies.
Starting point is 00:57:25 You're gonna cocktail after work. You're like, I mean, that's, that's gotta go somewhere. That resentment, that ball of the anger you have inside of you. It's gotta go somewhere. It's gotta go to your buddies to the left and the right. What's wrong with Deb? She's a sick bitch.
Starting point is 00:57:40 Deb's a sick fuck. She's sick. Couple of weeks ago, she thought she was having a stroke. That's how fucking wound up she gets. One day she is gonna have a stroke. Because she's sick, man. That has to go somewhere. You can't say that to your wife at your house. Remember, Deb? Deb. She's an underwriter. Deb, Deb, she's an underwriter.
Starting point is 00:58:07 Well, she's sick. No, not, not, no, not physically. She's just something, she's, something's wrong with her. I hate her. I hate her. Will you talk to me about how much I hate? It'll never work. It'll never will you be on a straight.
Starting point is 00:58:20 Your wife will leave. Your wife will say something like, maybe she's going through something and you're like, oh God, oh God, well what's this? I'm telling you people, oh it's just a commercial real estate crisis. It is amputating an essential part of the American society and civilization that is not, it did only be replaced by the way by a further entering the dark homostomal of the internet,
Starting point is 00:58:44 which is not good. We're at 55 already? by a further entering the dark Hamas tunnel of the internet, which is not good. We're at 55 already? Yeah. God, so much I also want to talk about. But does any of the things I'm saying make sense? It does. This is a great defense here of dead end jobs.
Starting point is 00:59:01 They're important. But they are important. Yeah. They are really important. And I know that you don't agree with anything I say because you drink the ghouled. What do you mean? Meaning that people, your generation has been,
Starting point is 00:59:17 everything I'm saying about the embrace of the dead end job, the embrace of the sterile corporate culture is antithetical to everything that you've been told and everything that I have been told to, which is to follow your dream and the rest of all that horse shit. Right. We're supposed to aspire. Yeah. Right.
Starting point is 00:59:36 But don't you, but don't you agree with me? Yeah. I mean, there's got to be ponds too. I mean, we all heard that phrase. It's not even about ponds. It's the happiest you'll ever be in your life. Deb, try telling you. Well, is anyone listening to me? The happiest you'll ever be in your life is a dead and job. You go, you know, Deb, I hope Deb
Starting point is 00:59:56 gets shot in the head. I would love to see her shot in the head, everyone's laughing. Nothing's better than a laugh at work. A laugh at work, your buddies go chucks hilarious. He did this whole thing, he acted out, Deb getting raped. But it's, I'm just telling you, I'm telling you right now. I wish to God, I wasn't rich. And I didn't live in this God dimension. I wish to God I worked at Geico.
Starting point is 01:00:35 What do you mean stop? There's no way. I'm seer, what do you mean there's no way? I mean, you don't understand anything about human nature, the complexities of it. You wanna go back, is what you're saying? If I could just work in a corporate environment, you know, I'm just saying, friday or day or two,
Starting point is 01:00:59 and I would, you know, but you, I'm saying, I would love to know, but you, I'm saying, I'm saying, it's fun, I would love to get a fun laugh. It's a corporate, if I were all in there, this fucking company, not what it was. Well, sitting there we go, it's not what it was this company, huh? Used to work here, used to be treated differently, they don't treat us, they don't treat us well anymore, just to be a bunch of bitter losers, bitter resentful losers.
Starting point is 01:01:26 Again, getting mad at a company they barely understand. Being angry, eating big sandwiches and being angry with people hating, fuck that person, fuck him. How did he get that deal? Well his father is of course, God damn it, of course. You know, it's great. I ruined my goddamn life. I want to go back.
Starting point is 01:01:50 I want to work for a shady financial comp, not like really bad, but just kind of like, you know, just have those moments again, the corporate moment. Your lunches arrived. Your lunches arrived. Your lunches arrived. Your lunches arrived. Chicken cutlet, honey, pesto, mayo, roasted red peppers on Chabata, a little side of macaroni salad or tomato salad and hatred, hatred and anger and pomposity to be pompous and to know better and when the young guys come in you go You don't really know how it works. I'll tell you how it works. You seem like a good kid like The paramilitary structure of it all. It's beautiful. It's fucking it's actually be it's actually beautiful
Starting point is 01:02:42 Compared to Hamas It's actually beautiful compared to Hamas, compared to the other options, you know, sex trafficking in Thailand or whatever. I'm telling you, in certain countries, they put their own children in sex trafficking. I think it's better to work at IBM. I know it crushes your dreams. I know you want to be Fiona Apple. And everybody wants to be Fiona Apple out there. And everybody just wants to go to her Theon Apple and be deep.
Starting point is 01:03:25 I know, or Phoebe Bridges. There's a song there. And the man. Man, man, man, man, man. I'd respect Phoebe Bridges more. She worked at IBM personally If she had all the talent she did, but still she worked it she would never collect she wouldn't quit and she worked at American Express Like like TV Bridges and she sold the American Express cards at her concerts
Starting point is 01:03:59 Look at all these people. You don't wander in and they're all sad and she's got great music But she's making them sad or with that, you know, wander in and they're all sad and she's got great music But she's making them sad or without you know Sullivan or whatever she's saying That straight song about the street in is very good. It's like a nice sad Christmas song She's got a bunch of them and and she's like after that and then she goes and then she goes now you all know also know But I work in American Express and everyone's And she goes I want to tell you about a few of the benefits of this card. And then she like, you know, starts doing interest rates and points and everything.
Starting point is 01:04:34 And why do you have to choose one or the other? Why do you have to choose one or the other? Kevin Hart's not. He's paid Chase. He's got a card out now. He's got a card. It's a God. a card, a God, I love a card. What about the Dylan card? Chase wouldn't do it.
Starting point is 01:04:49 Who would do it? Hey, Max. No, we'd have to go, we gotta go, we gotta go, low. We gotta find like a teacher, like a teacher's credit you do for like, you know, I mean, we gotta find like some real scumbag arrangement. I'm just telling you, like, this know, I mean, we gotta find like some real scumbag arrangement. I'm just telling you, like, this was a very, the depth of this episode is going to escape people because
Starting point is 01:05:14 people don't know how lucky they are. This is my point. My point is this and it's pretty, it's a pretty salient point. People do not know how lucky they are when they're this, when there this mundane life that you've created is actually great. This life of nothing is actually good. This life of like, oh, someone brought donuts is actually good. It's actually peak civilization. How about that? How about that? It's actually peak civilization. So just get up, roll out of bed, head into some office with a bunch of clowns, eat a donut, and then just email somebody that they've been denied
Starting point is 01:05:56 for a new liver or whatever the work is. Doesn't even matter what the work is. Did you just email someone, we're not paying for that operation, figure it out. And then you have a lunch with the guys, this is peak. It's peak. Now we're past peak, not to be the bearer of bad news,
Starting point is 01:06:16 but that's peak. Peak civilization is like, I'm bored at work. I'm bored. Don't you think that people in Gaza want to be bored at work? Don't you think they want to be the choosing which coffee creamer to use? You know, it really is. Sometimes I think I'm too smart for them to communicate with others and then I should just
Starting point is 01:06:39 sit kind of like the giver. Remember him that even speak now. You just took it all in and that's where I think sometimes I am because I keep trying to communicate with others and I'm at a loss because who would defend American Express, who would defend Geico, who would say that that's the meaning of life? But it is, all these people write about the meaning of life.
Starting point is 01:07:00 It really is to work a Geico. That's the meaning of life, like the meaning of life. Not, not, you know. You know, there's a lot of meanings of life, but one of the meanings of life is to figure it out, to figure out how to just have food and shelter. You need, you have basic needs that need to get met. And sometimes you meet like no matter what you end up doing,
Starting point is 01:07:30 there's gonna be periods of your life that you're gonna work at places you don't like. You know, this is what's going to happen. You're not, everybody's not going to be, I don't know, the people on Stranger Things, those kids. Like, and they're to pay later, they're going to pay later. They're going to pay later.
Starting point is 01:07:49 And everyone pays. Everyone pays. You don't get out without paying, you know? So what I'm saying, and a lot of people might disagree with me, is that a dead end corporate gig where you're not too low and you're not too high and you're just kind of riding in the middle and you're going, you got a couple of free tickets to the gang, you're taking some client. He's a real schmuck. But you know, he might re up with you. You realize that's it. That is ever you did it. You did it the war the world is war and hell and famine and chaos and
Starting point is 01:08:26 You know or people are taking ayahuasca in their rolls Royce try to figure out How deep is it? How do I need to actualize? But that's what it comes down to so when you look at the state of chaos. It's all over the world The idea that you have some boring dead end corporate job is actually quite an accomplishment. Not only of you, but around the people around you, yes or yes. Be happy with those things. Fight for them. Fight for the office. We're going back. We're going back. We're, where's that energy? It's all for Israel and the Appalachian. Where's the energy to go back into the office,
Starting point is 01:09:10 to crawl back into it, crawl into it. We're going back. We're going back. Protests. Get your fat ass back in the office. Cause Deb is sick bitch. And you wanna tell someone about it. I'm telling you life will not get better.
Starting point is 01:09:32 Fight for this. No one's going to listen to me. God will play this years from now. Years from now after the people in this town have had me killed. Years from now, someone will hear this and they'll go, God, he was fucking right. God, he was right. We should have fought for the shitty little
Starting point is 01:09:50 deli in the basement of the building. We should have fought for our office. We should have fought for the break room. We should have fought for it for civilization. We should have fought when we had the chance we didn't because we were all pompous and We all thought we were better than that and we didn't need it We didn't need to see each other in the flesh or talk to each other that Life was a series of gigs or schemes Jobs were for losers
Starting point is 01:10:23 Jobs were for losers. Schemes were better. Gigs were better. Even though they only enriched the fucking apps on our phones and kept us on a perpetual wheel, offered us nothing in the way of cohesive social environments. We all became lonely freaks in our cars, our houses, our or apartments or messenger bikes Taskrabbit showing up installing a TV and then leaving
Starting point is 01:10:54 All of this stuff we didn't fight for the great American office the great dead-end job the great middle class Mediocre God I wish I had fucking applied myself in college and I wouldn't be in this dump The great backyard Beer with your neighbor Fuck this place 30 years. They tell you to fuck off at the end. I'm telling you you didn't fight for it when you had the chance The biggest regret of my life is that I don't work in an insurance company, in Ohio,

Starting point is 01:12:34 and the massage. All right, all right. You keep doing this all the time. But you're raw. I actually believe that the happiest I've ever been is not when I was going to Africa pretending to care about the babies. The happiest I've ever been was when I was in a bank with my girlfriends and we was all talking about who had bigger dicks, or the bankers, which bank had the biggest dick. That was really fun. I didn't like Africa. It was depressing.
