Have you guys ever heard of something called the Kessler Syndrome?
Kessler, Kessler.
No, that sounds familiar.
That's where you drink that Kessler blended whiskey
and you shit for three days after you feel like death.
Y'all ever drink Kessler blended whiskey?
Hell no.
No, I've never even heard of it.
It was like the $5 whiskey.
Is it like a regional thing you know like
well you know how like you had like tovarsky vodka and stuff like that like you know the
shit you get like five bucks you know like early times yeah well not even early times et's goddamn
oil painting compared to kessler yeah um it literally says on the bottle, smooth as silk.
Yeah, that's... If alcohol advertises itself as smooth as silk,
it's going to taste, it's going to feel like you're swallowing razors.
Yeah, it's going to be like battery acid.
Yeah, fucking whopper fluid.
Probably healthy for if you drink.
What is the Kessler, the other Kessler syndrome?
Yeah, the two are unrelated as far as I can tell, but maybe they are related in a sort of larger conceptual sense. Kessler syndrome, proposed by NASA scientist Donald J. Kessler in 1978,
is a theoretical scenario in which the density of objects in low Earth orbit
due to space pollution is high enough that collisions between objects
could cause a cascade in which each collision generates space debris
that increases the likelihood of further collisions.
Does that make sense?
So basically, the reason...
Basically, this is like a scenario...
No, I need you to break this down for me.
This is one of those scenarios you come up with
when you're way too high and you start spiraling.
Okay.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
So basically, the concept is way too high and you start spiraling okay yeah oh yeah so basically what it is the basically the
concept is it is like let's say we have 20 objects in low earth orbit and then and then two of them
collide and creates like um 10 000 new objects tiny like a space domino effect kind of yes and
then that increases the likelihood that more objects will collide.
And then eventually you'll have a cascade effect in which there's so many little tiny objects from that one collision that it creates thousands of more collisions.
And then before you know it, you look up in the night sky and it's like drinking too much Kessler.
You can't see anything.
It's like satellites are raining
down yeah yeah yeah yeah i mean like i heard that like uh like getting out of like getting out of
like low earth orbit and like rockets and shit like that and space uh exploration just in general
like that people don't understand that there's like this field like you're saying this field
of debris like discarded satellites and shit like that it's just like a needle yeah it's literally like another atmosphere like an artificial
man-made atmosphere around the earth man so yeah that's that that sounds plausible that's probably
why they didn't let bezos or shatner go out of actual like go out of the atmosphere because yeah
you're taking
where did they go to?
yeah they would be
they didn't go into space they just like
went really high into the atmosphere and came
back down
like the troposphere
is that what they call it?
and that where weather happens I can't remember all those I used to know all that
shit yeah that sounds about right the troposphere one implication is that Isn't that where weather happens? I can't remember all those. I used to know all that shit.
Yeah, that sounds about right.
The troposphere.
One implication is that the distribution of
debris in orbit could render
space activities and the use of satellites
in specific orbital ranges difficult
for many generations.
We could just knock out our ability
to use these phones.
You're telling me that we're we basically doing like what we did on earth with over pollution
we're basically doing that in space yeah there's yeah space
damn shit so there is like a layer of just like debris and artifacts going around the
like what's up there it's like in like doritos
bags and shit plastic bags and shit diapers and shit discarded diapers well it's like um on the
peanuts cartoon when linus would come around and he would have that just like shit oh that that
just cloud of dirt and shit safety blanket and just dirt would be coming off of it?
That's probably why no aliens have come down.
They come down and they see this cloud of shit around Earth.
They're like, I don't...
We're the Galactic Linus yet?
We're the Galactic Linus.
Yeah.
It is pretty nuts that...
Haven't, like, astronauts and people in the International Space Station
reported hearing, like, War of the Worlds,
like, from the original broadcast, like, decades later,
still bouncing around satellites out there?
Yeah.
I've heard stuff like that.
Yeah, I've heard...
You ever seen the movie Contact with Jodie Foster?
I love that movie.
And Matthew McConaughey? Oh, buddy, have we? We talked about it on an episode, I think. yeah i've heard uh you ever seen the movie contact with jodie foster i love matthew mcconaughey
oh buddy have we talked about it on episode bro that's my one of my favorite movies i've seen like
10 times even though it's like four hours long but you know the intro man where it's like um
cut the perspective of like telescoping out from earth through the galaxy yeah and you're hearing
all of the radio weight like uh transitions and missions transmissions from like decades the farther and farther back you go until you're hearing like of the radio transitions and missions, transmissions from decades,
the farther and farther back you go, until you're hearing Hitler giving his fucking speech or something in 1937.
You know what?
Maybe that's where I heard about that from.
From a movie?
Now that I think about it.
From the critically acclaimed scientific...
I thought I'd read that in Popular Science or something.
I mean, hey, that's what that movie was about, right?
Science versus faith.
Uh-huh.
So, yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Well, I don't know why that.
Like I said, that's just something like,
I mean, it's definitely another impending catastrophe awaiting us.
But at the same time,
I did think it was something
that you think of when you're two-stoned.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, you start sort of spiraling.
Well, speaking of science versus faith,
Hazard, Kentucky.
You know, it is the talk of town. Aaronaron have you heard about this no i was just about to
say uh tell me tell me uh tell me what's going on i don't even know where to begin controversial
scenes over here my man it's um all right well when you were in high school, did you ever have these pep rallies where the boys would dress up like girls?
And it was kind of like a drag show, but nobody called it that.
And it was very homoerotic.
Nah, but I wish.
Nah, I didn't.
But I wish.
In New York, y'all didn't have that.
In the South, this is sort of...
We did that at our high school
we had there's a name for it i forget what it was i never participated because i was like i ain't
into that gay shit yeah yeah so is it like is it like so is it like uh you know how you had the
maypole thing like during spring or some shit like that this whole like field day and kind of
festival is this what this is well there's cross dresses yeah there's
something called powder puff like football have you ever heard of that no it's like when all the
football players dress up like the cheerleaders and all the cheerleaders dress up like as the
football players and like the roles are inverted you know what i'm saying they play like a game
okay okay um and then sometimes like they would um like at the pep rally uh you know
the football players would come out dressed like the cheerleaders and they'd be wearing the
cheerleaders uniforms and they'd be like busting out of it and like everybody would be like man
this is hilarious this is zany yeah well like in hazard which is 30 minutes away from us um it's like it's a it's a it's
bigger than the town we live in but it's it's like the second biggest little town city in eastern But in Hazard, there was a homecoming or prom this past week.
And some of the football players dressed up like girls.
Okay.
But they kind of took it a few steps further.
And I want to say, I'm not going to blame the football to say I'm not I'm not gonna blame the
football player I'm not gonna blame the students for this even though it was
their idea apparently but some of them dressed up to the coach's idea yeah
like the teeth the adults there to make sure that I mean I don't know it's not
going how do you say i didn't get
this straight when asked for comment the adults said well it was the kids idea they pointed at
the kids literally the superintendent these kids wanted to back it up on my dick
it's extremely disturbing um but yes so what happened is some of the boys dressed up like
girls but they were wearing like negligees and lingerie and like some of the photos i saw i
thought they were chicks at first i was like damn dude because whoa that would have made it a real
real real scandal well so yeah that would have made it a real, real, real scam. Well,
so yeah,
that would have made it a real big scandal,
but so they're dressed up like scantily clad and they're backing up. They're like giving lap dances to like the principal.
Who's also the mayor.
And then like a few of the,
a few of the coaches and then like,
um,
and then the girls,
like the cheerleaders dressed up like Hooters waitresses.
Two of the guys.
And these are minors.
Yeah, these are teenagers.
These are children.
Two of the guys dressed up like, this was pretty funny.
They were telling all this in the news report.
And they were like, the girls were dressed like Hooters waitresses.
The guys were dressed scantily cl clad giving lap dances and two students were
dressed as cheech and chong and one even had what looked like a joint in his mouth
i was like that's the least bad thing that happened in this
yeah yeah that's um that should be the furthest concern from your mind. Oh, my God.
But so, yeah, this is bad, right?
Like across the board, this is very bad.
Like even if it was the students, I did the teachers or the parents or whoever.
So what are they doing?
What are the teachers and the adults doing?
Are they just like catching dubs from the kids and dance with them and shit like that?
Like, I don't understand. Like, why are there's one of this kid rubbing on this guy's belly and it
made me so uncomfortable dude i don't know yeah i don't know if you can see that but yes he's
rubbing on his belly and the guy's sitting there and then there's this one um you know he's backing
up on him he's uh looking pretty and the mayor mayor's like, oh. Yeah, just like.
So I texted Tom last night that this could potentially be the thing that breaks the conservatives' brain.
Because they don't know where to land on it.
And there is this disconnect between the conservatives that live here.
You know, this is Trump country.
A lot of these people are conservatives.
Their parents are.
The teachers and administrators are.
There's this disconnect between that and, like, the conservatives nationally.
So I noticed last night that Fox News and, you know who conceptual james is the dumbest
motherfucker on twitter oh hell no thank god i don't know oh man oh you know you know him yeah
yeah i think james lindsey is his name oh okay on twitter okay yeah i know what you're talking about
i don't know what you're talking about um fox news conceptual james all these like conservatives nationally have latched onto this as proof that like the american
male is being sissified he's but hold up though it's happening in trump country but it's happening
in eastern kentucky which voted like 76 percent perry county that this is in voted like
76 percent for trump and so i i like went into the i your boy was doing some like deep dive into the
fox news comment section last night and um and like the way that they've figured out how to explain this away is that you would have someone saying,
this is just like critical race theory.
They're teaching our kids that the American male, masculinity's dead.
The American male's being sissified,
they're turning to freaking fraud.
I like when you say sissified.
Sissified.
And then someone would say, like,
I guess libs still like to get
in the Fox News comment section
because, like, libs would jump in there
and be like, actually,
this is a Trump country county.
And then, like, Libs would jump in there and be like, actually, this is a Trump country county. And then, like, the conservatives would say, well, they voted for 22% of them voted for Biden.
And I guarantee you that 20% of that 22% works for the school and it's the administrators.
Oh, my fucking God.
It's this Randy Weing uh lesbian big gay conspiracy so it's the it's the democratic minority that voted for biden that is like this is the one spearheading this shit yeah that's what
that's what the conservatives are trying to say right right when the real truth of this is like
there's even a king of the hill episode about this kind of stuff where the football players
dress up like the cheerleaders we're red hot and can't be
i don't know if you've watched king of the hill that's that one's very funny i need to watch that
yeah but it's like it's like this is just that run amok it's all this is there's nothing more
to be said about it but everybody in uh in the country where you have to have a take it's either
some big pedo ring sissification
conspiracy or
one of those two things. It's either
some sort of clandestine pedo ring
with our kids or
the sissification of
the American male.
Yeah, I mean, it's like
we're trying to
separate out the various
conservative takes on this.
I was deep in the lab last night trying to like separate it all out so like yeah so so wait how do
what how do how do conservatives in hazard like reconcile this shit so the conservatives in Hazard have latched on to the idea that this is an example of cancel culture run amok.
Like, there's nothing wrong with this.
Like, men have been doing this for decades.
Like, we used to do this in the 70s.
The Greeks, the ancient Greeks have been doing this for decades.
Have you ever heard of fucking Roman bathhouses?
Ever heard of Socrates, man? ever heard of fucking Roman Bathhouse? Ever heard of Socrates, man?
Ever heard of the Bacchanalia?
Boys, I used to take them boys and they'd pair them up with an older man.
Well, never mind.
Anyway.
Oh, my God, dude.
Remember last week when I was talking about the guy with Tosca
with using 300 as like a let the boys play rallying call, like we're turning our boys into pussies?
None of those guys stopped to think about that Greeks had institutionalized pedophilia between older men and younger men.
They don't think about that when they watch 300 and stuff like that the hyper masculine what's the word man a feeb or something like that man like where it's basically like a young man who's like
exactly what you're saying is there to service a feebophilia yeah yeah man yeah i mean this is
this is disgusting and wrong and bad i need to say that unequivocally like again all the parents
and teachers and etc should have said this should not happen yeah the
guy getting his belly rubbed by a child should have probably like you know should have probably
uh thought twice about that yeah but it is fascinating though that some conservatives
have latched on to it as an example of cancel culture and that like this has been going on like
you know for a while and that there's nothing wrong with this
because it kind of does like give you a glimpse
into some of the sort of like libidinal impulses
of the American male.
Like, I think a lot of men want to cross-dress,
you know what I mean?
They want to like-
They want to explore that side of their sexuality
in a rigid, like patriarchal, like, you know, I mean like- Yeah yeah like they want to explore that side of their sexuality in a rigid
like patriarchal like you know i mean like yeah but yeah you're right but it has to be within
the confines of like oh we're just cutting up yeah exactly exactly i've seen this i've seen
this like when we would have drag shows at summit city back in the day like all the like hyper
masculine like republican guys would be sitting in the back
and they would act like they were just taking in
the spectacle, right? But really
they were like, hmm.
You know what I'm saying? Yeah, you could see the gears turn in their head
and be like, I might go home and do this shit.
Their buddies would come in
and be like, oh, can you believe this?
This is a bunch of fucking shit.
Yeah, they sit up straight, drink down the beer,
man, can you believe this shit? That's the's the thing though it's interesting that the teachers and the
administrators and stuff just thought that this was like a normal thing and they are right that
it is kind of normalized because yeah this does happen at a lot of high schools it happened at
my high school and stuff um but it is like i don't know it's just very bizarre like like watching the conservative mind
try to like wrestle with it like is this an example of cancel culture run amok or is it like
the um big gay conspiracy to turn the kids gay you know what i'm saying it's like they well they
got to apply their principles like whatever principles that they have they have to apply in this situation but it's also in eastern kentucky
in trump country so there's like this contortion and this twisting and these contradictions that
they can't really resolve you know it it's just like it's just like the covid thing man sometimes
forces run up against each other head on and like you can't really make any sense out of it because
it it the particular confluence of things has destroyed the conventional wisdom about
like how anything happens you know exactly you've changed this the paradigm has shifted so much and
you've changed the rules that you have to create new rules new principles right to deal with this
shit or maybe you can't i don't know well that's the thing like because their politics are and this is also true for the libs too but because the like conservative
mega politics are completely oriented around like what triggers the libs they can't they can't tell
like what is the triggering thing here you know what i mean yeah exactly exactly because because
in their eyes
they're like oh the lips think this is cool and they think this is fine but really it's like no
it's fucking creepy no nobody and like low-key pedophilic exactly exactly it is low not even
low-key high-key yo yeah right oh man oh my Hazard got off to a banner start this week
when somebody also vandalized the old Fugates Water Park
that's been abandoned,
and they made the marquee above the movie theater say,
eat ass and pussy.
It's a start to a good week.
They've made the news twice this week.
Oh, it's a start to a good week. They've made the news twice this week. Oh, man.
I saw Hunger Games at that theater in 2012,
and that was the last year it was in operation.
It was really not good.
It was on its last legs, man.
Someone put in the comments.
You can see, like, mice and shit across the floor.
Someone put in the Fox News comments,
LGBTQ, let's get Biden to quit.
This shit wouldn't have happened on Trump's watch, okay.
The hilarious thing about that notion is it's like,
Trump was the one that was saying like all our
beautiful boys and their beautiful bodies and their uniforms and stuff like that like trump
was actually like the progenitor of that sort of strain of thinking i mean i mean even back in the
80s man like you know his whole uh persona with being kind of like like glamorous obsessed with
himself and his image you know uh was comparing Tom Cruise to the generals,
they look much better than Tom Cruise, much more handsome.
And none of his supporters thought for a minute,
hey, that's kind of bold.
You know what I mean?
Not that I give a shit, you know what I'm saying?
But it's like the contradiction.
Y'all are out here saying this.
And your boys talking about the beautiful, our beautiful servicemen.
This is fascinating.
Like, the comments on this, you know,
when we allow boys dressed as girls to use the girls' locker rooms,
we have lost all regard for sanity and morality
like again the issue here isn't the cross-dressing the issue is they let the guys get dressed in the
girls locker i don't know they probably latched on to that as like a bathroom trans thing like
yeah yeah they just try to connect the issue is not the cross-dressing. The issue is the fact that they're children. They're kids.
They're children.
Yeah, yeah.
I just, yeah.
Yeah, it's like, even in eastern Kentucky, a place that's like, you know, you're more or less considered a man when you're 16 or something like that because, you know, your
daddy's daddy's daddy was working at that age or whatever.
You know what I mean?
Like, yeah, the cross-dressing
is not the issue and that's funny i guess that's the thing where everybody like the libs and the
conservatives are hinging upon right the cross-dressing and not as you said terrence like
the fact that this was like criminal bro like what the fuck are we talking about here disgusting
absolutely disgusting the issue is letting a 15 year old boy dressed as a girl rub his ass on a
grown man's crop yes that's the issue what the fuck right yeah like it's um as you can imagine
though the fox news comment section very quickly devolved into like it's time for a civil war we just need to like 700 000 dead liberals
sounds good to me just that kind of stuff who are you who are you gonna fight and that like yeah
the liberal haven of hazard kentucky oh my god dude i mean i don't know man it's like the
motherfuckers too that like like have like know damn well that they would not get them off their ass,
pick up a gun, and start a civil war.
You know what I'm saying?
These are people who type this shit from their computers, man.
Jesus, dude.
700,000 dead liberals.
Sounds good to me.
Sounds good to me, man.
It's time to get it popping.
Oh, shit.
Can you imagine a guy that's saying shit like that,
and he's basically not been within two hours of his home
at many junctures in his life,
and imagine that guy drawing up a plan to take Cincinnati from the liberals.
You know what I mean?
Not even knowing where these
cities are in the country yeah like this guy's like gets up and like drives like probably a
couple miles to work every day go home repeat and then but but he's but for somehow he's going to
like be a critical part of the siege of pittsburgh you know i realize the first thing he needs to do
is buy a map of the united states oh man and something that was
really on the nose like matt jones um posted this and then the comments were you know pretty
predictable but like the most predictable matt you probably liked this like the comments this
one guy mike bear roger said lots of people need to lose their jobs over
this disgusting situation i tend to agree um just cannot imagine that no adult even the ones who
were attending the event didn't say what in the hell is going on so like that's whatever but then
the reply to that is from a guy named trevin trevin not kevin not trevor not kevin not trevor but trevin okay okay yeah a white guy
trevin i could triangulate from that name about when he was born he was born between 93 and 2001
yeah trevin said why though it's a joke that the young dudes probably thought was hilarious i'd go
out on a limb and say it was mostly their idea. I would have had a ball if this happened in my high school back in the day.
Like, alright, Trev.
I'm sure you would, Trev.
Children.
Children.
I would have had a ball if this would have happened
at my high school. At my age now, I would have
had a ball.
You know what's funny?
Trevon is probably like some
54-year-old pedos like screen name like
right someone i would love this you know how like in virginia currently like the
like debate over critical race theory has devolved in like into the controversy over
the teaching of that tony mor Beloved. Have you heard about
that? Yeah, I kind of heard about it.
Yeah. It's like become
it's become the kind of like
stand in for like
critical race theory now. That they're teaching
this book in school, which
I don't know. Didn't this book come out like
fucking like 30 years ago? Yeah, like in the 80s.
What the fuck?
This has been around for a
minute someone also isn't beloved about like the runaway slave that kills her daughter so she
doesn't have to like live a life of that i think so yeah i've never read it but yeah what the fuck
is that got to do i've never read beloved either i know they made a movie i can't um but someone
commented on the matt jones thing and said well at least they're not making the
students read beloved just just fucking jesus where was anybody ever made to read beloved in
high school dude it's like it's like i don't know if you guys saw that but it's happening with all
like media now like uh i saw the trailer for that buzz lightyear shit you know the toy story
prequel man and i thought it was kind of cool right but whatever that's besides the point
and there are people that are like yo uh what are they gonna make buzz lightyear now like non-binary
you know what i mean like not These are fucking not real characters.
Well, didn't...
So, like, one of the
controversies this week,
which, I don't
even know if this is the case, it kind of felt
like a media
thing to get people to watch the
movie, but
apparently, like,
one of the characters in the eternals
like they retconned hiroshima to like make one of the scientists like a black gay scientist
like i is that the whole i purposefully have avoided all news in this movie because i'm just
kind of like angry at it but like are you serious so they like they retconned a black gay dude who was
responsible for dropping atomic bombs you know that's that's like that is america like in in
like this like rush to like sort of be inclusive whatever that means like they're making like
they're making black characters be in like probably situations black
folks were not in at the time but they're making them villains yeah yeah bro it's like the battlefield
video game coming out man where they have a black uh non-binary character and i'm like okay man
like just going around like just serving out american empire like that's cool yeah
i was listening to something on npr this morning morning, and it was like a white commentator bemoaning the lack of inclusivity
in 17th century Western European art.
And I was just like, what the fuck do you think?
You know what I mean?
Like the idea is like, also, if you want to go down that route,
it's like, man, you go a little bit further along.
Pablo Picasso obviously ripped off, like, African art, Afro-Caribbean art, and all that kind of stuff with his shit.
But it's like, you probably would be better served, like, talking about, like, those elements of things rather than just, like, saying, well, all the Flemish painters were not inclusive of, like.
Yeah, yeah. You know, people, it's Flemish painters were not inclusive of like. Yeah.
Like, I wonder why.
I wonder what historical context, systemic context, why, right?
Yeah, I wonder why that is.
And also why you would want that to be inclusive.
Exactly.
Like, you ever stop to ask black folks if they want to be included?
No, motherfucker, we don't. A lot of that shit, we don't don't a lot of that shit we don't want to be included in that i'm like very far the fuck away from that shit yeah some of the contents
comments on this are so crazy um because i mean it's just like old people seeing this.
And one of these says, we had a couple of fundraiser talent shows where some of the guys dressed up in frilly lace and petticoats and did a couple of can-can type numbers.
Great fun, but definitely no lap dances.
You basically described the founding fathers, you know.
That all these motherfuckers were beer. all these motherfuckers were beer.
All these motherfuckers were no shit. They were doing can-can type dances.
And then someone responded and said,
in my day, they had a womanless beauty review.
I didn't participate, but it was very clean.
Not even miniskirts, full dresses.
Sounds like Trump, man.
That sounds like Trump. I sounds like trump i love how
everybody is focusing on the wrong the wrong details the detail that the wrong part is not
the programming it's what transpired with physical contact between adults and children
this is the material context of what actually happened here oh my god dude oh man
um yeah in my school system build back better plan someone said build butt better
that's a real poster right there okay respect they're getting better at it they're getting
better at i gotta give it to them oh man, man. Oh, shit. But I do have to say, the majority of people who commented on the local news post were
like, this is outrageous and fucked up.
So, I mean, I don't know.
You know, good on them.
But, yeah, pretty interesting.
um yeah pretty interesting i did find something in here that sent me down a complete rabbit hole and i have to admit that um i'm kind of embarrassed i didn't know about this until
i ran across it in a comment section reading this um jimmy j smith says this young generation is a bunch of degenerates anything
goes let's go brandon i would support instead of drag queen dancing and so then i was like
what the fuck is let's go brandon if you know do either of you know what let's go brandon is
no what's that wow i have a tell i have a tell for you okay i. I have a tell for you.
Okay.
I have a tell for you.
Let's Go Brandon is a song, but it started as a meme.
Because during a NASCAR race recently, the crowd started chanting,
fuck you biden um but the announcer
like tried i guess he tried to play it off or maybe he just didn't even understand what they
were saying but he thought they were saying let's go brandon so let's go brandon has become a right
wing meme and then and then some like then these rappers, these right-wing rappers made a song about it.
Right-wing rappers.
I just have to stop you there and just say that's such a cursed fucking term.
That's fucked up.
Let me send you guys maybe the best way to do this.
Like Lil Boosie?
Who are they saying?
Yeah, some guy named Topher, some guy named D-C they saying yeah some guy named tofer some guy named
d cure and some guy named the marine rapper i'm gonna go ahead and say something i don't know

This is one of those guys that's like
Counts down the days

Wow.
Pretty fucking, it's heat, man.
It's heat.

Only legacy on the rap scene.
It's the military artillery.
Shot more arms than a vaccine.
Wow.
Wow.
Wow.
Ain't doing Nathan
for the human races.
What's that a reference to?
I've just heard people say Nathan
as nothing. You know, Biggie says
they don't get Nathan but penetration.
Unless it smells like sanitation.
You just ruin things and you're the biggest racist.
You're the biggest liar,
but you ain't on fire like you will
Farrell out on Talladega.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Let's go, Brandon.
I prefer to be like OJ.
And then Topher.
This is Topher. Step up to the mic, Topher.
This is verse three.
Alright.
America don't care about you, Joe. I thought that
you should know. Got us rolling back the
curtains on the stage you done set.
Treat you more like Alec Baldwin since being a
prop is not a threat. God damn.
Oh, it goes ooh.
So this just came out. Ooh. you more like alec baldwin since being a prop is not a threat god damn oh so this like just
ooh most popular president in u.s history how they calculated that still remains a mystery

conservative concerns a little bit bit uh talking build back better more like build back broke

in chief but if i'm honest let's go brandon brings amazing relief okay so i gotta say i gotta say
i don't know who's who had the best first d cure definitely definitely had the best first man
i gotta go back to that for just a second, man.
That line when he's like, he don't want us to breathe the strangler from
strength, somebody give assisted living a call, get your man back.
He don't know what's really, oh, what's about Amtrak.
That's pretty vicious.
Nah, man.
I like a lot.
What's his name?
The Marine rapper had a dope line his was trash but he said
all my lines are dope like hunter that would have to go with it
yeah that's pretty good that's pretty good i didn't pick up on that's pretty good
oh my god dude yeah i guess these guys are all vets um I bet they all look like the, what is it,
the sunglasses profile picture with the Trump hat.
You know what I'm talking about, that meme.
What all these dudes look like now.
Apparently this song is,
it took the top slot on the iTunes store
beating Adele's comeback single, Easy, on me.
So I guess it's kind of popular.
I'm going to have to listen to this shit after.
I'm going to be honest with you.
I was looking at the pictures.
DQ is the white guy.
I wouldn't have guessed that.
He got the best bars.
Smart Money was on Topher.
Wow.
Yeah, man. Wow. Interesting. I figured that he might be the best bars. Smart Money was on Topher. Wow. Yeah, man.
Wow.
Interesting.
I figured that he might be the Marine rapper.
He kind of looks like a little, you know.
That's amazing.
DQR, man.
Anyway.
My family like Toretto.
Wow.
Man.
Yo, this is amazing.
Treat you more, Alec Baldwin, since bringing a prop is now a threat.
Whoa.
God damn.
Wait, are there two Let's Go Brandon songs?
It looks like there's several Let's Go Brandon songs.
There's also one by Bryson Gray featuring Tyson James and Chandler Crump.
Chandler Crump?
Chandler Crump.
Yo, you heard that? I'm going to be honest with you. You heard that new Chandler Crump? There's no universe where I want to hear that song.
Let's Go Brandon.
YouTube has deleted conservative artist
Real Bryson Gray's newest song,
Let's Go Brandon, for medical misinformation.
They're censoring my man.
Isn't that creative license though, man?
He's an artist.
Shouldn't he be able to say whatever he wants?
That's fucked up, man.
Yeah, seriously.
Yeah, just to recap,
the thing that sent me down the Let's Go Brandon rabbit hole
was a comment on a story about high schoolers backing it up on adults in hazard
kentucky twerking it out that tells you all you need to know about these people let's go
is if the reason that i know about your song is because of a story about uh you know entry level
that's not the best, you know.
That's not the best introduction to your business.
SEO.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, shit, dude.
Oh, man.
What a fucking weird ass week.
Are we building back better or what's the lightest on that?
I don't know.
I don't know.
I guess you guys would have to catch me up to speed,
but the story I read was basically about how all the things they wanted to include in this Build Back Better plan have basically been cut out of it although i don't know maybe
like they're like paid child care leave or whatever is cut out and um like i think all
their core climate agenda has been cut out due to joe mansion's opposition yeah megan megan day had
a really good um had a really good tweet that they covered everything
she said um i think so far we've said goodbye to paid family leave tuition free community college
meaningful climate provisions expanded medicare eligibility plus vision hearing dental
prescription drug price controls universal non non-means tested child care plus a tax credit
a billionaire tax and that's just like i guess
the things that you know they really biden really promised in his campaign they didn't include the
billionaire tax because like that when i read the story earlier this week that was like one of the
few things they thought they would able to be include because it's basically a capital gains
tax and it taxed like
the 700 wealthiest people in america and like the story i read in the new york times basically was
like yeah um not only would this not work because it has all these loopholes in it they were expecting
it to be challenged immediately from like a constitutional standpoint? Because I guess, like, our constitution just doesn't even allow you to do that or something.
I don't know.
Jesus, man.
I mean, like, I don't know, bro.
This whole, like, I mean, we all knew this shit was going to happen, man.
Like, but I'm not going to lie.
Like, a little part of me, though, like, a little like glimmer of hope you know because um
not because of like really necessarily biden or anything but it just seemed like
like now was the time to actually do something especially given the pandemic you know so it
didn't matter who it was they would have to be like okay you have to at least do something but
this is like i don't even know what to say anymore, man. This is fucking crazy.
I did see Jen Psaki say, I don't remember the exact quote, but the gist of it was, well, it's better than no deal.
Yo, they're getting ruthless.
They're getting so bold.
They are so bold now, dude.
Literally just telling you, fuck you, eat shit and die.
Eat shit and die.
If we can agree on nothing at all, then that's better than no deal.
Oh my fucking God. Y'all see this tweet of Mitt Romney handing like box of confections to kristin cinema on
the couch he's dressed up he's got the mustache on and she's like in a pink dress sitting on an
orange couch it's a real photo yeah it's yeah i guess it is real wow mitt tweeted it out from
the official mid account and then uh fucking joe mansion uh
apparently got shuttled into an elevator away from reporters by elizabeth warren
and he called her uh his savior really yo they're yeah they're all in cahoots bro i swear to fucking
god like they're just like behind doors just like twiddling their thumbs and doing the bird man hand rub and just laughing about this shit
like it's so bad that it's like at what point i can't be like yo like we all know they're not
trying their best at all they're not biden himself is not even pushing his agenda but it's like
y'all have to be in on the joke man y'all have to know like i don't know man it's just it's crazy
i did laugh at this line from the New York Times article.
Democrat leaders continued to frame the legislation as transformational as an heir to Franklin
Roosevelt's New Deal and Lyndon Johnson's Great Society.
Bruh, what's that dude's name?
Ronald McClain or whatever his name is.
Like, Biden's chief of chief of staff like came out and
said yeah this is the biggest uh legislation since the new deal well sadly enough that actually may
be true yeah that actually is true sadly enough fuck that's sad yo uh i was listening the other
day one of my favorite pastimes is listening to recorded phone calls of LBJ for some reason.
And in between him ordering pants from Hager and something else, there was a call.
Like a nine-inch inseam or some shit like that?
Cross-seam or some shit like that?
Give me enough to accommodate my massive hog.
Yeah, in between him ordering pants and ordering parts for his car
that drove underwater.
Did you know that he had a car?
He would take people out on his ranch
and just start driving towards the lake and be like,
oh no, the brakes don't work!
And then he would just go.
Are you going to vote on that bill?
Drive it about further and further.
Classic Hillbilly prank.
Yeah, he's like,
there was this like,
he called,
I don't think he was,
maybe he was,
I think he was,
this is when he was in the Senate.
But he called Adam Clayton Powell
and they just had like this contentious like
knockdown drag guy.
It's like,
you know like
fucking AOC and Kristen Sinema
aren't doing that.
Nah, dude.
You know what I mean?
Nah, nah. Like get on the level you fucking cocksucker. You're fucking me here. Like. Nah, dude. You know what I mean? Nah, nah.
Like, get on the level,
you fucking cocksucker.
You're fucking me here.
Like, that kind of shit.
You know what I mean?
Them just going at it
or whatever.
And, yeah,
it's like these motherfuckers
are like,
I don't know.
They were actually fighting, man.
They were like, you know,
I mean, you could say,
you know, what you want
about, like, politics at the time
and how far they could've went,
whatever, but it's like,
I feel like politics then was like bare knuckles.
It was like a brawl, you know what I'm saying?
As much as it could be.
And now it's just like, now these motherfuckers just roll over
and, like, tweet and whine online about shit, you know?
Well, deliverables mattered to some degree, I guess,
to keep your office back then, you know what I mean?
So, like, I think people had skin in the game.
I'm not saying any
of these people mentioned are like great statesmen or anything like that but like i just can't
imagine like that those kinds of things happening now yeah like things actually getting done and
keeping promises because i don't know maybe everything is so flattened out now like where
maybe all these issues are so kind of broiled into one into one big issue right
like i mean there are a lot of issues but mainly dealing with like wealth and income inequality
that's like you don't you know when there's no one there to hold you like responsible right or
accountable for any of this shit you know yeah i don't know um in any case it's well um it's uh we are in the midst of a very large if there's any like
silver lining we're in the midst of like a very large uh significant like labor um i don't know
how to characterize it there's just a necessarily a strike wave, but it's definitely like shit's flaring up.
Yeah.
And it's been consistent.
There's a lot of activity.
We'll say that.
And it's not just sort of exclusive to the manufacturing like John Deere or like healthcare or film industry.
It's also even spread to McKinsey.
Oh, man.
Oh, boy.
This is an interesting article I saw in the New York Times.
At McKinsey, widespread furor over work with planet's biggest polluters.
A letter signed by more than 1 1100 employees has called for a change
at the consulting firm which has advised yes it's like basically it's a bunch of like yeah cia stooges
um being like you know we going on a work strike yeah good good uh fucking work stoppage for spooks yeah it actually it is a it is a quantifiable good
if they stop working it's like it's just like yeah like that's the that's the kind of strike
we need to encourage but for very different reasons right on the left we should be like
fucking like uh emailing and signing on with these people, man, and trying to push this shit.
Yeah, please do not work. Don't work.
Listen, man.
Y'all are getting jerked around. I've been meaning to tell you this.
The deep state
workers
are getting fucked over.
And I'm sick of it.
Y'all need to stop. Cease activity
immediately.
Oh, man. Pretty funny pretty funny i mean the article is completely meaningless i mean it just goes to talk about like mckinsey's work with chevron and shell and can imagine the kind of person that
like like that writes an article like that that's insane yeah it would be yeah yeah
very demonic one of their this is interesting though one of their clients uh canada's tech
resources um is uh let's see a vancouver-based company that blasts mountains in the rockies to
find coal for steel mills tech is one of the largest or one
of the world's biggest exporters of steel making coal and in 2019 its reported carbon footprint
when accounting for the coal burned by its customers was equivalent to one-tenth of
canada's greenhouse gas emissions like just like you if you just knocked out some of these companies just individually,
you could make such a significant progress towards ending climate change.
It's just crazy. How, like, one company can, like, comprise an entire country,
like, one-tenth of an entire country's greenhouse gas emissions.
Jesus, man.
Fucking nuts.
Oh, fuck. fucking nuts oh fuck well
what else anything else
you guys saw this week we should cover
I did read a fascinating article
in the
New York Times about
this
thing in Montana
it wasn't the one that you read Aaronaron that you sent me the one that i thought
so when you sent that article i thought you were i thought it was this other article i had read
that told this very fascinating story about um
this group of like non-profits and sort of like do-gooders in this corner of
Montana,
we're trying to get their part of the state listed as like this national
heritage site designation.
And it was pretty,
it was pretty meaningless.
It just would like bring in like a couple of million dollars extra a year for
like tourism stuff.
It was like basically
they were trying to be designated like an important heritage site for the old west
and yeah it was like patagonia wearing like sort of you know libs and like non-profits and do-gooders
and everything like them crunchy crunchy motherfuckers yeah yeah yeah but you know
they're like in their 60s and stuff and like they had been working on this designation process for
like five years when like all of a sudden this woman who had like 35 acres or something like
started reading like human on conspiracies that basically this designation would give the government the ability to take
private property from people. And so it was this, and like during the whole story, the New York
Times kept like doing its thing that it does now. And the Washington Post does this too,
where every time like a QAnon person or something set makes a claim they like will say
so and so falsely claimed and made fun of finocchio lies yeah don't try to be like lies
instead of says now yeah exactly exactly exactly and it was just it was fascinating though because
this woman single-handedly managed to get the entire process unraveled like they had been working on this like five or six
years and she jumped in and was just like this is the pedo cabal and they're gonna start stealing
your land and like they got the whole process like ground to a halt and all these non-profit
libs and like you know people like community leaders are like well god damn it they're like god damn it
yo say what you will about the right man i mean like i mean like we talked about this show like
you know extensively right but like man when they want to get something done dude and they get
together they put their fucking mind to it it's quite impressive i'm not gonna fucking lie man
it's pretty impressive yo that's insane and i did think it was an example of how everything bends towards
their will in the end they get everything they want you know what i'm saying like oh yeah because
the system is already like like designed to like already favor like their you know like their
designs and shit like that man so it's like they're not fighting the uphill battle you know like they don't they the system
is already built to like entrench like their wealth and power so it's like yeah man they
don't really got to do much but like send out a couple emails make a couple social media posts
get people really mad and go into like town hall meetings and shit and yelling uh-huh got it well
it's like we i went to get coffee before we started recording and i saw
like a bumper sticker for like trump's 2024 run and it's like the message they're going with
and i don't know if this is trump endorsed or if they'll still be using it in 2024 but it's
trump save america again his campaign is called Make America Great Again.
Again?
Again.
Again.
Make America Great 2.
Electric boogaloo.
This time it's personal.
But yeah, no.
They get everything they want.
That is true man like even i mean i don't want to talk about pandemic stuff anymore because people say mean things to me but it's funny
because like like even if you look at the trajectory of how the pandemic's been held
public like handled publicly like nobody's really paid serious attention to this like particularly the
city i live in in the last year and a half and like that's probably a direct result of people
kowtowing to like me like rights like sense of like personal liberties and all that kind of stuff
so like in a sense you can say that like they got what they wanted like you know ain't nobody like
really masks up like you know religiously anymore you know wanted. Like, you know, ain't nobody, like, really masks up, like, you know,
religiously anymore.
You know, vaccine skepticism is, you know, whatever,
at an all-time high or whatever.
And you can think what you want about that.
But, like, they do move the needle by sheer, like, force of will,
it seems like.
No, I mean, they've gotten everything they want.
I mean, finally, did you guys see this story
i didn't even actually read the story i just saw the headlines and i saw some libs
sort of latching on to it but rolling stone had an article that said um
that said uh january 6th protest organizers say they participated in, quote, dozens of planning meetings with members of Congress and White House staff.
Yeah, I saw that one.
Yeah, yeah, we basically brought the markers and the parchment paper,
and we did power mapping with them.
Yeah, they did butcher paper on the wall and said like
how are we gonna be intentional about how we show up in this space
listen everybody as we siege the capital let's be mindful about how we show up in this space okay
and then the fucking uh q anon shamans just like, yeah, tell me to have respect when you subvert democracy.
Oh, man.
Didn't one of the Republicans say that like he didn't have any when that story broke?
He's like, I didn't have any I don't have any knowledge.
My staffers don't have any knowledge of working together like um you know but yeah sure maybe i took a few phone
calls and plus what they did too was like it was completely within their right and completely
lawful and it's like yo you're you you definitely did it bro you definitely had some of these q9
motherfuckers in your office yo serving them fucking donuts and coffee and shit bro
sorry i lost you guys for a second.
Well, all right.
Well, that probably covers it for the day.
Hopefully, Let's Go Brandon did not melt your brain too severely,
but apologies if so.
