Happy Holidaaaazze

Speaker 1 00:00:35 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back. We are officially done with Fat Dad Fall. It's over. You on? We are moving on. It's winter has come all over my face. It is here. It is cold. I hate it, but I love it. Cause I'm a layer. See we got, we got LA winter going on. So you wake up, it's 50 degrees. Ooh. It's so chilly. You can see your breath sometimes. Oh yeah. In my house. And then by 10 30 it's 80 degrees. Yes, very true. LA weather is great. It's just, I hate that fluctuation cause I don't like, it's wild. I don't like wearing like a tee under like a big ass sweater. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>. And, you know, there's no like, cooled graphic tees that go with my big ass fancy winter coats. No, I don't know how to dress. Well it's cuz we live in a desert, uh, that we, no humans should live in this place, but we still do. Speaker 1 00:01:22 We call it home. Yeah. We'll talk about that later. I'm sure we'll call it home. All right, ladies and gel and welcome to Papa on Preach. I am ob, I'm here. My boy Bennett Bennett. How you doing? Uh, not bad doing, uh, good. Uh, today. Good. We, uh, we're just discussing here in the clothes. I slept in, uh, dropped off the kids a daycare. Yes. Uh, grabbed a burrito, then came, did a podcast. You know, I wasn't, we were talking about how you were dressed earlier and I, I refrained from ripping on you cuz I'm like, yeah, you obviously rolled outta bed, but so do I I just have like fancier. No, your looks cooler. Like, that's it. Like, my, my my, the shirts I sleep in are either the stained or too, have too many holes to be worn in public. And my shorts are the ones that I feel most comfortable wearing. Speaker 1 00:02:09 Like, this is the one <laugh>, we're getting real about it. Yeah. <laugh>. These are the shorts you don't see my dick impression through. So I can wear these in public, but my other shorts are strictly in the house. Oh, I, I see your dick imprint. Every time we record, I'm like, this guy either needs to get cargo shorts or stop being so goddamn sexy. I, uh, need a pillow. Just put on it. Get a MyPillow <laugh> things full of dicks. Uh, anyway, um, you guys, uh, we're here at winter. Um, I have you seen any good trailers lately? I've, there's one our producer sent us Cocaine Bear absolutely insane <laugh> it, uh, I mean the, you know the name alone. I should, I'm sure people are like, what is this now? I thought it was a video game where you turn into a bear fueled with cocaine. I, yeah. I hope that, I hope there's a game tie. And that may be a really fun game. Or maybe a, a Speaker 2 00:02:59 Cocaine bear skin in Fortnite. That'd be a fun thing to do. <laugh>. Speaker 1 00:03:03 So like, uh, there's a movie, cocaine Bear. The trailer looks great. Apparently a bear gets to know a bag of cocaine. Speaker 2 00:03:08 Yeah. It's like I, yeah. What I'd read, it's like, you know, very loosely based on a true story about this, uh, narcotics agents turn drug smuggler who like dumped a bunch of cocaines from an airplane later died, like jumping outta that airplane from a faulty parachute spoiler alert from the movie Jesus. Uh, and then later on they found a black bear, uh, had died from like, overdosing on like 70 bags of cocaine. Holy shit. So with that principle in mind, they have now made, it's like, well, what, what? Hey, what happens between here and there? You know, what happens between the cocaine hitting the ground and the bear dying <laugh> and apparently it's fucking carnage. Speaker 1 00:03:46 Uh, I I I love stupid ass movies like Speaker 2 00:03:49 That. Yeah. I mean, I am, uh, like the trailer, like, when I first saw it, I was like, all right, how serious are they gonna take themselves? And they're not taking themselves super seriously, which I'm, I'm in, I'm more into that as opposed to being like, what are we gonna do about this cocaine Speaker 1 00:04:03 Bear? Yeah. Like when there people are like, they're like a little loose about the reality that they set up like shark, nato. Mm-hmm. <affirmative> like, was a cult classic. But like, that movie took itself too seriously. Like that first one, I'm just like, bro, come on. Like, let's have some fun with this at least. Yeah. And then they started, but like, you know, that was straight to Lifetime or sci-fi after that Speaker 2 00:04:20 <laugh>, Speaker 1 00:04:21 Like that sci-fi channel, that shit was garbage. Um, but speaking of Speaker 2 00:04:25 Trailers, yeah. There was like a bunch of trailers that all dropped out on the same day. Uh, I didn't know about any of them because it was the same day. Fucking Kanye West <laugh> officially. It was like Kanye's Corner is now just fucking, you know, it's, it's a, a heaping rubble dude. <laugh> like he's done. Speaker 1 00:04:44 <laugh>. Oh man. Uh, we'll, we'll get into Kanye's Corner a little bit, obviously before, but I, I am sorry that happened. It happened to me as well. It happened to all of Speaker 2 00:04:56 Us. Yeah. Cause I was like, oh, was it a Transformer's trailer? That's pretty cool. And then from like, after that I was like, new Guardians. It's like, how did, how the fuck did I not know? There's a Guardians and Galaxy trailer. I missed that. Oh. Cause it's 2020 news items down. Yeah. <laugh> after Kanye West is on Alex Jones saying how much hit Leo talking about Hitler and not even mentioning what a painter he was. Yeah. Speaker 1 00:05:14 Talking Speaker 2 00:05:14 About his other accomplishments, not mentioning his painting Once Speaker 1 00:05:17 Jesus Christ Kanye, God damnit. She But Speaker 2 00:05:20 Hey, transform Beast Works trailer though. Ooh, Speaker 1 00:05:23 Dude. So speaking of Beasts, Speaker 2 00:05:27 <laugh> Speaker 1 00:05:28 Transformers has always been like, uh, you know, that first one was great and then they've been like swinging misses. I'm like, who's directing this one? Is it Michael Bay? Is he out? Did they get Speaker 2 00:05:37 I don't think so. It looks more co coherent, so I don't think, I think he's probably just producing it. Dude. Speaker 1 00:05:41 Michael Speaker 2 00:05:41 Bayney. Oh, get that info here though, Speaker 1 00:05:43 Dude. His directing style. I don't understand why people like that shit. Speaker 2 00:05:48 No, it's nauseating. Speaker 1 00:05:49 He's gotten away with having amazing actors. And why Speaker 2 00:05:52 Does he keep getting away with it? Speaker 1 00:05:53 I hate it. Like, yo paint painting game. Uh, like I lot, that movie was fucking hilarious. I've Speaker 2 00:05:59 Heard it was really good, but I, I'd not seen it. It was Speaker 1 00:06:01 Just, it was like a, it's, it's kind of like, speaking of cocaine, it's Fargo on cocaine. Yeah. Is what it is. It's this true story. They told the, this story of this something that actually happened. They got these great actors to be in it and they were over the top. They were, he let them do their thing, but like, it was still shot like a jackass. Speaker 2 00:06:19 <laugh>. Speaker 1 00:06:19 Like, I just hate that shit. Like, do we really need to see the Rock getting out of his chair in a low shot angle? 180 in slow motion. Speaker 2 00:06:28 He, uh, his style is unhinged. Like the bad, you know? Cause he did Bad Boys like those movies. Right? Yeah. Speaker 1 00:06:34 God damn it. Speaker 2 00:06:35 What you gonna do? Bad Boys for Life? Speaker 1 00:06:37 Bad Boys For Life? Bam. Bam. Oh, I'm singing, I'm singing the wrong one. Yeah. Speaker 2 00:06:41 Bad. You're thinking about Bad Boys. Bad Boys. Speaker 1 00:06:43 What's you gonna do? I'm, I'm thinking of Bad Boys. Bad Boys by, um, Jamaican Singer number three. And I was actually singing P Diddy's version also. Yeah. Who's sang Bad? Boys? Who Sang Bad Boys? Uh, cuz the cops theme. The cops theme. Like they make Wear Down Don <laugh>. No way. Bad Boys. Bad Boys. Inner Circle. Inner Circle. Inner Circle. Never heard of them. Anyway. Yeah. Speaker 2 00:07:09 They seem the cops theme <laugh>. Uh, so yeah, the Beast, like his Beast Wars, the Transformers cartoon, uh, was on like every morning before school Yeah. For us. So it was like, I used, you know, it was, I was at the threshold, like, probably shouldn't play with toys, but still wanna play with toys. So I was into the Beast Wars, so I had no idea there was a Beast Wars movie coming. I Speaker 1 00:07:29 Had no idea it was coming either. I'm, Speaker 2 00:07:30 It's like, hey, there's a fucking Reox and there's a, I uh, I saw a really funny article where it's like some click bait articles. Like look at, look at the comparison from the cartoon to the movie <laugh>, the fucking cartoon. It looks like it was drawn with someone's like just thumb on a fucking page smashing it around like it's a gorilla. Like, well, no fucking shit. It looks a little better than first generation CGI <laugh>. Speaker 1 00:07:54 I hate when they do that shit like right now to the comic books. I'm like, bro, this shit was made in 1942. Yeah. Cut 'em a break <laugh>. Like how accurate they did. I'm like, they didn't, that was corny. Yeah. And it was bad. Speaker 2 00:08:05 Like, look, it looked appropriate back then. Speaker 1 00:08:08 Fucking, uh, I I just, I remember watching, uh, spider-Man. Uh, I think it's not home Cut. What's the last one? Not far from No Way Home. No way home. So no way home. That last one, when Jamie Fox comes into the multiverse, spoiler alert for anybody, but when he comes back, like after he first like runs away and comes back, he's like, oh, I got all this power now. When he first shows up, the electricity comes over him and he gives like a, it's like a split second. Like it goes out of his eyes and creates the bioshock mask. And I was like, oh, like that. Yeah. And I didn't see that the first time. I, my son woke up at, uh, 1 58 this morning and was not down to go back to bed. Tried to get him go back to bed. <laugh>. And, uh, due to my snoring and my cold, Shannon was like, I'm not dealing with this rhino, rhino who sleeps next to me. Yeah. So she like scada and I thought she was in her room, but she was actually downstairs. So I was just like, all right, OZO, come chill in bed with me. We're gonna watch Spiderman. And he Speaker 2 00:09:10 Loved it. <laugh>, Speaker 1 00:09:11 He loved it. And, uh, he fell asleep and I kind of dozed out. Then he woke up again at like four 15. So I just started the movie over again Speaker 2 00:09:20 One more Speaker 1 00:09:21 Time. And then I noticed all this cool like Easter egg shit. <laugh>. But Speaker 2 00:09:24 Anyway, half awake. Like, Speaker 1 00:09:27 I don't even know how I'm doing this pod right now. I did not get any sleep last night. Night. Speaker 2 00:09:30 Those nights are the worst, dude. Speaker 1 00:09:32 I thought they would go away. I thought like he'd be a human and go to bed Speaker 2 00:09:36 Every once in. Yeah. Speaker 1 00:09:37 But like, yeah, four years old, he wakes up. He's like, I don't like the dark. I don't like the quiet. Where's my dad? And he has one level. He's like, da day. And I'm like, Jesus Christ <laugh>. And like when somebody wakes you up screaming, your first reaction is to scream <laugh>. And that's why I felt bad for Shannon. Cuz she's asleep. And ah, damn. I'm like, what? Speaker 2 00:09:58 There's not, there's not a peaceful, it's like, oh, I guess I'll get up and now let's go see what, oh no, what's wrong? What's happening? It's always like, what? Like, oh my, unless unless you were bleeding, I need you. Uh, yeah, my little dude will do that. Like, he's not, he's getting better about it now, but he has like a little hand, uh, na like hand, uh, stitched to him, like a little lovey thing he sleeps with. And he sticks his finger through it and he got it like legit stuck. One day he was losing his fucking mind <laugh>, uh, and like, I was like, what? What? I was like, oh shit, I'm sorry. <laugh>. Like, I'll help you out. So now every morning he's like, stuck. I was like, you're not stuck. Like, you're fine. Like he says, he's stuck every day now. But yeah, that was one time I was like, what, what are you screaming? I was like, oh shit. I'm sorry dude. You are, you're really stuck. My bad. Speaker 1 00:10:44 Yeah. Ozo was a problem this morning. Like, um, I remember in our old pod, our, our, our old cohost, Mitch told me this story how his daughter took a sh like just squatted just right in the closet. And she's like, she was like five or six at the time, <laugh>. And so I, I put Ozo downstairs to eat his breakfast and I go upstairs and I'm like, now don't go back to bed. Just get your shit together. We can get him to school on time. Everything's fine. And I hear, daddy, I need new underwear. And I'm like, OZO, do you have an accident? He's like, yeah. I'm like, you poo. Yeah. And so I come down, I'm like, what's going on? And I'm looking, he's got his pants down. He like, this Speaker 2 00:11:25 Is Speaker 1 00:11:25 Today? This is this morning. Oh, this is hours ago. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>, he has his pants down that he like kicked off him, obviously mm-hmm. <affirmative>. And I don't see anything in his pants. And I'm like, what are you talking about? He's like, no, I had a boo boo. And I'm like, oh my God. <laugh>, there's a poo poo somewhere in my house, <laugh>. And so I'm like, just sit down. I'm like, just sit down. He's like, oh buddy, I need pants. I'm like, fine, stand there. Don't move. Don't Speaker 2 00:11:49 Move. Tell me, you tell me. Use all of your words. Tell me where, where the poop Speaker 1 00:11:53 Was. So I like, what, what hap where, like where were you? What happened? Like, when did you have the accident? He was like, I was sitting down and I had to go to the bathroom and I didn't make it. And I'm like, okay, so let me follow this trail from the living room to the bathroom. And then lo and behold, right, right next to the bathroom, this little nugget turn. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>. So he got it out of his pants. But then I looked in the toilet. He got, he eventually made it. Yeah. He just didn't get there in time. Hey, Speaker 2 00:12:18 I stopped be, I'm not. Speaker 1 00:12:19 So I was like, I came up to him like, bro, almost slapping hands. He's looking super confused. Like well done. Um, but yeah, it's been a morning Speaker 2 00:12:29 Miles. Hit me the other day because this is na like, we both do it. We both say stupid things to the kids and like they pick it up. So I'm changing his diaper.

I saw the trailer for, uh, uh, the, uh, Speaker 2 00:13:04 The Transformers, Speaker 1 00:13:05 The, the Transformers. The one I did not even know that was coming, that I was excited for that I had no idea was there because of yay. Mm-hmm. <affirmative> was Indiana Jones. Speaker 2 00:13:14 Yeah. That's, it's like, oh yeah. And Indiana Jones is back too. I Speaker 1 00:13:17 Wonder if he even likes playing that Speaker 2 00:13:19 Part. I guarantee he doesn't. He Speaker 1 00:13:20 Just seems like he, I don't know if he's playing. I Speaker 2 00:13:22 Don't think he likes a lot. He hates, I think he likes being a carpenter and being left alone. Those are the, seems like he likes Speaker 1 00:13:27 The only gag. Like he, they always have him doing Star Wars gags. And I heard the only one that he ever liked was, uh, smashing the Millennium Falcon. Do you see that gag? There's a Lego gag where mm-hmm. <affirmative>. He, uh, this guy obviously an actor comes in to Speaker 2 00:13:44 Oh, the Aunt Conan to Speaker 1 00:13:46 Like sign the Millennium Falcon. Yes. It's like, oh, it's, you know, it took me, it took me, uh, well it was 6,000 hours and it's Speaker 2 00:13:53 Whatever it Speaker 1 00:13:53 20,000 pieces. And he hands it to him and he is like, whoa. Just like throws it over his head and smash it. He's like, what the hell, <laugh>? I'm like, he probably, that's the only gag I've ever heard of him loving. Yeah. Like everything else he hates. Speaker 2 00:14:07 But every once in a while it's like, fine, I get a couple million dollars, I'll do it. Who, Speaker 1 00:14:11 Who shot first? He's like, who cares? Okay, sorry. Grandpa <laugh> go fucking clash. Clash a pla go crash a plane on the 10 freeway. You son of a bitch <laugh>. Um, but yeah, guards the Galaxy Three amazing trailer, didn't give anything away. Just got me pumped for the Speaker 2 00:14:26 Movie. No, I'm excited. It's, um, cuz what's his name? James Gunn is like, he signed exclusive with DC so this is gonna be his last Marvel thing. So I'm excited he gets to like, wrap it all up and do his thing. Mm-hmm. <affirmative> we'll laugh, we'll cry. We'll get some songs that we heard a million times. We'll Love em again. Yeah. Like the trailer. It's like, I've heard that song a million fucking times. Like, God, I like that song though. Yeah. Speaker 1 00:14:45 Like, I really like it. I like that. Uh, marvels really introducing the, uh, the newer generation to some good old classics. Yeah. That I thought were classics when I was a Speaker 2 00:14:55 Kid. <laugh> Speaker 1 00:14:56 Sure. I could hear Tupac remix the song. I'm like, this is great. My mom's like, this isn't great. Yeah. This is the original <laugh> Speaker 2 00:15:03 I'm still fighting out. It's like, like, God damn it Dr. Dre, you didn't come up with a single beat did Speaker 1 00:15:07 You? Piece of shit. Speaker 2 00:15:08 You piece of shit. Speaker 1 00:15:09 <laugh>. Oh fuck. You hear that coyote attack some kid. And, Speaker 2 00:15:15 Uh, I saw that video. My mom loves to send me videos of animals attacking children. Get the Speaker 1 00:15:19 Fuck outta here. Speaker 2 00:15:20 I know <laugh>. Uh, yes. Like their co like we, you know, like we live in the border. It's fucking Crenshaw, Obama, mlk, and there's coyotes in our neighborhood like Speaker 1 00:15:33 That. It's wild. There was crazy. Never Coyo. Like I grew up in Ladera Heights, like in the, there was never coyotes until I moved to the valley. Mm-hmm. <affirmative> when I was like in the fucking hills. And there was coyotes everywhere. There was mountain lion sightings like once a week. Like we knew like, like you saw people walking around with metal rods and bear spray with their dogs. Yeah. Because they knew there was some fucking animals lurking. But when you're here in the city, that wasn't a problem Speaker 2 00:15:57 Now. No. Now it is. Like I've seen, I've definitely, like the other night I saw it fucking five o'clock, like getting the kids home from daycare. A coyote as big as like a fucking, uh, German, not German shepherd, but like Jesus, a dog you would pet and be like, that's a pretty good size dog. <laugh>. Uh, it was fucking in my neighborhood just running around. And like one of my neighbors fuck was chasing after him with a metal rod, like trying to scare him off. But yeah, it was coyote's Speaker 1 00:16:20 Getting wild. They're getting really desperate, you know, like all these gender reveals are burning down our goddamn forest. Where the fuck are these coyote's supposed to go? Like Speaker 2 00:16:30 Fucking taking the 10 Speaker 1 00:16:32 God damn Speaker 2 00:16:32 Hopping off the Crenshaw exit and hanging out in my neighborhood. Speaker 1 00:16:36 Not to be a conspiracy theorist, but I do think the government's releasing coyotes into the inner cities to scare off the crack heads. But Speaker 2 00:16:42 They're definitely not doing anything to stop 'em. I haven't seen animal control do shit about it. Dude, Speaker 1 00:16:46 I, anytime I had an issue and I called nine one one, they'd be like, call animal control. Animal control works like a fucking nine to five. Yeah. Like, there's nothing happening in the regular time. Like, animals come out in the witching hour. Like I, so fucking wild story. I was driving back from Santa Cita, uh, one night. Uh, we had friends that lived over by Magic Mountain. I had a workout there. So I was like, yo, let's all chill out here. I'll go to work in the morning, then I'll drive home that night. I'm driving home and weirdly I see this like giant thing in the freeway and I'm like, I didn't know what it was. I thought it was like a rug. So I like drive around it and it looked like a fucking horse just laid up on the freeway. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>. I was like, get the fuck outta here. And then I see two more horses, but they're just trotting down the freeway, terrified, like freaking out. And I'm like, oh my God. And so I slow down, I put on my hazards and then another horse, which is trying to jump the embankment, like, Speaker 2 00:17:47 Yeah. Speaker 1 00:17:48 All the, obviously these horses know each other. And I'm like, holy shit. And I just kind of drive by and I'm like, I call the police, I call nine one one. I tell 'em what's going on. And I'm like, I don't know if it's the right number. I saw a dead horse on the freeway. It's huge. And as I'm coming down, I see three more horses that look super terrified. I'm not sure what's going on. If they got out of an an enca, like I don't, and then as I'm explaining this to 9 1 1, I'm like, oh my god. Oh my God. I see a truck that is flipped over a trailer. Yeah. A horse trailer flipped over. And I'm like, oh my God. And I was like, driving by. I'm like, I just saw a car. I think it had the horses that they flipped over. And he is like, you need to call out in control. Speaker 1 00:18:26 And I'm like, but there's an accident. It's like, well, we'll send somebody out to canvas the area, but you need to call animal control. I'm like, why don't you call animal control <laugh>? Like I just told you what the fuck is happening. Like, wait, what the fuck? Yeah. And so as I was going down to pull over, I see a bunch of cars coming to pull over. So I'm like, okay, I don't gotta be involved with this. So I left. And then I thought, I started thinking, I'm like, what the fuck this bitch told me to call animal control after I described the scene I was dealing with at on the freeway at one in the morning. Yeah. It was the fucking five coming down with boring. Yeah. Call animal control <laugh>. Speaker 1 00:19:06 It's fucking crazy. But yeah. Um, I, we gotta do something man. We gotta start living in harmony with some of these, uh, animals. Or at least tell the mountain folk to start putting out treats. Yeah. Maybe mountain folk <laugh>. Like people in Topanga. Yeah. The mountain folk. Well, there's different types of mountain folk. You know, you got your, uh, canyon country mountain folk. Uh, you got your, uh, uh, your, uh, big bear lake mountain folk. And then you got your Topanga Mountain folk. And then you got your Malibu mountain folk. All different. Yeah. I When you say mountain folk, I pictured like, you know, people drinking outta jars and heaven stills and fucking hills have eyes. You know, mountain folk sister burn, sister banging moonshine drinking. Yeah. Mountain folk. Okay. <laugh>. Well, it shows how close mind you are about the mountain folk <laugh>. All right.

And the new tradition I wanna start doing is at some point during the night before we open presents, or if it's in the afternoon, I'm gonna sneak off and dress as the Grinch. And my brother is going like, you know, he's gonna have a bat. Ozo is gonna have a bat. My sister's gonna have a bat and I'm just gonna barge through the door, just try to steal some gifts and they gotta beat the crap outta me <laugh> or scare me off <laugh>. Speaker 2 00:23:13 Like, Speaker 1 00:23:13 It's like, you know, Grinch hunting is going to be like setting up. Like I want, like I want one of our decorations in the house to be a Grinch trap, you know? So like my, you know, we come over, it's like, okay, it's time to Grinch hunt. Like, you know, my brother and Ozo like hiding behind the couch. Like, oh, he is gonna come. And I sneak in like, oh, thank God this house is empty. And he's just like, jumps out. He's like, ah. And I just think I know the way I want it to go and I know it's not gonna go that way. I know if I show up there and just bark through the door in a green suit, my kid will poop himself. Mm-hmm. <affirmative> start crying, but start it early. Speaker 2 00:23:45 You like, okay. Right. The Grinch is coming and then like, what I would do is have the Grinch music play in and then like, you know. Yeah. Speaker 1 00:23:51 Ooh, it's, Speaker 2 00:23:54 Yeah. And then like <laugh>. So like, when he is older, when that start, when he hears that song, he like fucking look behind. What the hell? <laugh>. Speaker 1 00:24:06 Oh great. Psychological damage. Speaker 2 00:24:09 Well, you wanna really ingrain this memory. You wanna make it a poor memory. Isn't it gonna be a fly by night memory. <laugh>, Speaker 1 00:24:16 But yeah. What are, what are some of your traditions that you, you're bringing in? Speaker 2 00:24:19 Well, I think, uh, yeah, mine are don't involve bats, unfortunately. <laugh> Speaker 1 00:24:24 Okay. <laugh> to, to each their Speaker 2 00:24:26 Own. Hey, hey, season's still young. Lemme figure this. I'll figure this shit out. Uh, no, like one of the sweeter traditions was my mom would, uh, make, uh, Christmas cookies and we'd decorate 'em. So I think we're gonna try to do that. Like think they're old enough to kind of get that concept now. Okay. Uh, another one that's not like as fabulous, but I really love and that has never let me do it until this year has opened one present on Christmas Eve. I love that as a kid. Oh sure. You're like, okay. My moms like, okay, you can't open that one. We could open this one. All right. Awesome. <laugh>. It's like one present on Christmas Eve to kinda like, you know, it's like <laugh>, what was it that methadone. It's like, use, it's like that something to fucking take the Christmas edge off. It's just like, ugh. Yeah, yeah. Right, right. I can wait. I can wait another eight hours. Speaker 1 00:25:12 <laugh>. Do you uh, do you ever go ice skating when they like, open up all these rings Speaker 2 00:25:18 All over the city? I've never, like, as a kid, I, whenever it was like, you get the, the class invite to a party, if it was a skate party, I fucking dreaded it. Cause I am not, I do not belong off of my feet. Speaker 1 00:25:29 Why you top heavy Speaker 2 00:25:30 These, these two feet? Um, yes. I'm very top heavy. <laugh>. These are like, it's like my Achilles heel is my Achilles heel. Like my ankles are very weak. <laugh>. Speaker 1 00:25:39 Well, shit, I, I used to love ice skating and it's just because I grew up next to an ice skating ring. There used to be one over in Culver City. My mom had a shop down the street. And so we'd always go to the ice skating ring and chill. Like, they have video games, sometimes you get to see like some weird like, pick up hockey game and people get real, Speaker 2 00:25:56 People Speaker 1 00:25:57 Get real, real into it. But yeah, I always liked ice skating. And Speaker 2 00:26:00 I remember, I'm sorry to cut off your stories ahead. Memory just flashed. Uh, we used to go visit my aunt and uncle who lived in New Orleans and then City Park New Orleans with this giant drive through light display were really cool. And they had like an ice cream, ice skating rink in the middle. Uh, and this was probably, yeah, maybe like in high school. Maybe early in high school. Uh, we were all there like, you know, my aunt and like some of my family were ice skating, having a good time and someone fucking bit it and the, the blood staying on that ice. Oh yeah. So it won't be, that happens. Like them like trying to ice, like clean it up and just making it worse and worse. And I was like, oh wow. So blood on ice. So I will never be ice skating. Speaker 1 00:26:38 Blood on ice is fucking terrifying cause it gets everywhere and then it, it congeals really quick cause it's frozen uhhuh and you end up with these like spots and like, you could never get it out. And Speaker 2 00:26:49 Oof. Yeah. That was one of those like, oh, okay. So I will never be doing this. Perfect. Speaker 1 00:26:54 Oh God. Oh god. That's terrible. Are you gonna go to switching Speaker 2 00:26:58 Happy holidays? Yeah. Speaker 1 00:27:02 <laugh>. So Okay. Ice skating off the list for Ben. Speaker 2 00:27:04 Yeah. Scratch. I mean, the kids, they're very durable. They might love it now. Support it, you know. Speaker 1 00:27:08 Slide 'em down. Watch your teeth. Speaker 2 00:27:11 They got backups coming. It's fine. <laugh> Speaker 1 00:27:14 Kids have backup teeth, ladies and gentlemen. Speaker 2 00:27:16 Is that a, is that a bad philosophy to have as a Speaker 1 00:27:18 Parent? Uh, that they got backup teeth Speaker 2 00:27:20 To know they got more coming? Speaker 1 00:27:22 I think so, but I don't work for child services. Speaker 2 00:27:26 <laugh>, <laugh>. Speaker 1 00:27:27 Just send a quick text real quick. Speaker 2 00:27:31 <laugh>, they're gonna get mouth guards in their stocking somewhere. <laugh>, Speaker 1 00:27:35 Uh, Hey, uh, Opie sent us a box of helmets and pads. Yeah. Speaker 2 00:27:39 Do these UFC mouth guards come in? Child <laugh>, <laugh>. Excuse me. Uh, nevermind. I was molded. It's fine. Speaker 1 00:27:45 Shit. Red, red flag laws for, for Speaker 2 00:27:48 Dick. You pressing Speaker 1 00:27:49 The button somewhere. Dicks boating goods. Speaker 2 00:27:50 <laugh>. Speaker 1 00:27:52 Uh uh. What about, uh, candy Kane Lane? You gonna do that thing? I, Speaker 2 00:27:56 I unfamiliar, what is this Candy Speaker 1 00:27:58 Kane Lane? Um, I'm not sure if they have one here on the west side, but like the biggest one is in the Valley. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>. Um, and it's like three blocks in this neighborhood. Oh yes. That light up that they all do like the most elaborate amazing Christmas decorations and didn't like people just drive through and they walk around. You know, COVID kind of decimated it. Um, yeah. Speaker 2 00:28:19 Lot. I'm sure it <laugh>, Speaker 1 00:28:20 But you know, it Speaker 2 00:28:21 Was, it was last year trying to do like a similar thing in San Antonio and like, we were driving around and like NA's parents were like, there's a lot less lights this year. And I was the one who made the grim assumption. It's like, well, COVID probably took out a lot of them old, like some of them old folks. Covid didn't get to make lights this year. Speaker 1 00:28:37 Jesus. Speaker 2 00:28:39 No, it's a very dark year. <laugh>. Speaker 1 00:28:44 Geez. Jesus. That's Christ. You know, uh, when I was, I think I was a couple years outta high school, candy Kane Lane was like a big thing. Like I lived next to, uh, near it and we all knew about Candy Kane Lane. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>, you know, we would go park at the shopping center down the street and then walk over. Speaker 2 00:28:59 Yes. It sounds like the red light district in the North Pole. Speaker 1 00:29:02 Yes, it is a lot less booty. A lot, eh, you know. Well, Speaker 2 00:29:08 But because they're, because they're Hess, that's why there's Speaker 1 00:29:10 Less booty. There's less booty. There's physically, Speaker 2 00:29:12 There's physically Speaker 1 00:29:12 Less booty. The amount is not less just the size. This is a lot less. Um, but I remember one year, I think it was like the city council passed some law for Candy Kane Lane and like all the neighborhoods that you could not display any specific holidays on when you put up holiday decorations. Yeah. So you couldn't say Merry Christmas. You couldn't say Happy Hanukkah. You couldn't say Happy Kwanza. It had to be Happy Holidays. Mm-hmm. <affirmative> and Candy Can Lane was like, uh, no. Fuck you. Yeah. And like, it was dead. There was like, nobody put up lights. They're like, we're not doing it this year. And then people who did not know this was going on, were like, all right, we're gonna burn down City council. Yeah. And like year later they got rid of that shit. They're like, Nope. Okay. We apologize. Our bad. Yeah. Speaker 2 00:29:57 Hey, hey, we're a too woke. That's our problem, Speaker 1 00:29:59 Dude. I I So how do you feel about this whole like, Merry Christmas, happy Holidays thing? Like, oh, Speaker 2 00:30:04 I don't give, Speaker 1 00:30:05 When Starbucks says you have to say happy holidays instead of Merry Christmas? Speaker 2 00:30:09 I saw someone had a funny tweet the other day. It's like, times are dark. Like, like I saw, like someone said Merry Christmas and the manager went outside and shot him. They shot him. It, uh, it like being from South Louisiana where it's 98.9% Catholic, like saying Merry Crys to everyone. Like, if, if you're from there, it's like, wow, why do you have to say Yeah, everyone's, everyone's gonna, everyone's celebrated Christmas, but here in la you know, a lot of people don't do their own shit, you know? So it's, the thing is like, I don't care. The thing is, ultimately I don't care. Most people in this country probably celebrate Christmas. Most people, if you hear Merry Christmas, probably don't give a fuck. Like Yeah. Speaker 1 00:30:47 I just don't know how that is offensive to anybody. Like if Target, everyone's like, Hey, have a Merry Christmas, have a Merry Christmas, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Like, why is that bad? If Speaker 2 00:30:59 All right. Oh boy, here we go down the rabbit hole. It's because it's because of shit. Like, this is why Donald Trump was president. Like, because we, because like, Speaker 1 00:31:10 It's cultural Speaker 2 00:31:11 Bullshit. It's, it's like, it's cultural. It's like things that, like, it's a problem. It's a not problem that media made a problem. Yeah. Like I gar like, it's one of those things that like, most people walk on the streets. Like if you said Merry Christmas to like, even if you're fucking on, on Fairfax walking around and said Merry Christmas. I don't think people would be like, well, excuse me. Like I'm these the, I got the braids. Like I'm clearly I'm a Jewish person, but like, it's Christmas time. We're celebrating Christmas. Like there's Christmas lights at two blocks away. Like, it's one of those things that's like, it's an honest, unless you're like doing the threatening manner, like going outside of a synagogue and threatening him with a Merry Christmas. I don't see the big deal. Speaker 1 00:31:46 Yeah. I brought this up the other day. Like, if somebody walked up to me and like, fucking the middle of the year was just like, Hey, happy Chinese New Year. I'm not gonna be like, excuse me. Yeah. Excuse me. It's tune Speaker 2 00:31:55 Asshole. It's Speaker 1 00:31:56 Round Hog day. I do not celebrate. Like, it's just like, no, it's like, like it's, it's, if I say Merry Christmas, somebody like, oh. And have a happy Hanukkah. Like, oh, you too. Speaker 2 00:32:05 Yeah. It's, yeah. Speaker 1 00:32:06 It's wild that Speaker 2 00:32:07 It's, it's, it's a non-issue that people made into an issue and i's time We got Donald Trump as president. Speaker 1 00:32:13 Yeah. As a society. We kind of gotta speak up with like a lot less hate and a little more understanding. Like when Starbucks decided that they're gonna say Happy Holidays on their cups and not say Merry Christmas, people should have been like, that's stupid. Nobody cares. Why don't you just add happy Hanukkah and Happy Kwanza. And then whatever cup you get is the cup you get. Yeah. Like, fuck that. Like, Speaker 2 00:32:32 And also the, the fact that they change it to like a holiday cup, guess what? I don't care. Like <laugh>. It's either way. I don't care care. Like if like I'm, I'm still, I'm still gonna get 'em. Like, when I don't feel like making my own coffee like that, it's like, it doesn't matter Speaker 1 00:32:44 To me. I'm gonna use my reusable frosted piece of shit. Starbucks mug anyway. I'm not gonna get hook up. But like, I don't know, it's, it's always been wild to me how this was even a fucking topic. And obviously, you know how I feel about the media, they just, they blow shit up, but ugh, whatever, whatever. But Speaker 2 00:33:04 I is a big old happy holidays to that. Speaker 1 00:33:06 Yeah. Big go. Have a happy holiday. Speaker 2 00:33:09 I'm gonna threaten him with a Merry Christmas. Yeah. Speaker 1 00:33:11 <laugh>. I'll say it. I'll say Merry fucking Christmas. Uh, but hey, big subject we have to cover now. Um, for those of you guys who not know, uh, Bennett usually throws down on Thanksgiving, but he was tabled in sidelined due to an injury. Speaker 2 00:33:24 Yeah. I wasn't thrown down. I was throwing up. Speaker 1 00:33:26 He was throwing up. He's doing a lot better now. Speaker 2 00:33:28 Yeah. All in all, Speaker 1 00:33:29 He's doing a lot better now. So we want to know, like, are you gonna just like go crazy on Christmas? Because Speaker 2 00:33:36 I mean, that's the plan. Yes. Like there is a potential, uh, travel opportunity. Uh, NATS gonna wait for work. Uh, and I may go with her like for a few days. Uh, but even that being said, I may just get shit and freeze it because Oh sure. Christmas, I'm just gonna copy and paste Thanksgiving. Like I want, I want it all. Speaker 1 00:33:53 You want a Turkey it Speaker 2 00:33:55 Now, now I want the world. I want the whole world. I want lock it all up my pocket. <laugh>, everything. Turkey, mashed potatoes, you know, Speaker 1 00:34:03 Goddamn Speaker 2 00:34:04 Stuffing. I'm gonna do, you know, even if I'm doing, I'm sure people will be like, I'll help. And like, yes, you will. Like <laugh>. That's the thing is like, like being from the South, like people like offer help and like a lot of times you have to politely decline. Like, oh no, I'm fine. If someone offers help, like I will, I will, I will take it a lot of times. And a lot of times people will be like, oh, okay. Like, yes, yes, you can like stop. You can stop what you're doing and do this instead. <laugh>. So yeah. Yeah. So looking forward to Speaker 1 00:34:31 That honey, take it easy. I don't need Speaker 2 00:34:32 Like, how can you help? Oh, great. Those potatoes will be really, you know, they're not looking peeled right now. Can you help me out with that? Oh yeah. Speaker 1 00:34:37 It's always good to have a sous chef, you know, like just, Hey, I need you to clean these. I need you to peel those. I need you to chop that like, so you can concentrate on the big shit. It's always nice to have that. Like, and especially when you know your kids aren't there fucking everything up.

And he elbow dropped me from the top of the Speaker 2 00:35:40 Couch. <laugh> just Speaker 1 00:35:41 Like jumped on me and then started like sitting on my head and was like pulling on my dreads. And I'm like, don't react. Don't react. He's gotta get over this. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>. And I'm just like, what are you doing? He's like, I'm playing with you. And I'm like, oh, you wanna play?

No, I, uh, I've got one of those big, um, to answer your question, no, my kids, if I am on the ground, if any, any position at all of comfort, it is their opportunity to come and join or partake in the comfort or, or just like the little dude mi I'll just be, start one of his words. He's going bounce, bounce, bounce. So if on my, like, I like one of those big exercise balls, I kinda stretch and like my back's hurt.

Yeah. Speaker 1 00:42:29 <laugh> north or South. Yeah. Speaker 2 00:42:33 <laugh>. It's a square from Hawaii to Vegas in LA Speaker 1 00:42:37 It's a big, it's a big little rectangular. Speaker 2 00:42:40 That Bermuda triangle is my, uh, <laugh>. But yeah, staying home for Christmas. I dig. I love not traveling. Speaker 1 00:42:47 Oh shit. Okay. Well like I, I like that too. I, I like not traveling as well. I'm so glad I don't have to travel this time around. Um, one, I I'm glad we both have our traditions. Like you saw my house when, Speaker 2 00:43:00 Oh yeah. Christmas is ready. Speaker 1 00:43:02 It's, it's exploding. Mm-hmm. I'm about to put up some Christmas lights. You got Speaker 2 00:43:05 Wrap paper. Ready? You're getting Speaker 1 00:43:06 Go. Oh, I already got a couple gifts under, uh, the tree. Obviously all of them are from Santa. I don't know who put them there. Speaker 2 00:43:13 Oh, is that how you do it? Yeah, I mean, like Santa like does it cuz we did it like, um, I guess this is our, this is I guess another tradition. Uh, Santa always, like on Christmas day, Santa's shit would just show up, like opened, not wrapped. Just like Brock had a pile. I had a pile and there was every once in a while some Switzerland toys in the middle <laugh> that were deemed for both of us. But yeah, that's like, you know, the presents are always from like, whatever's under the tree was from someone like for mom or dad or like her dog. You know, mom would always do that shit. We're like, oh look, the dog got you something. Like, thank you. I Speaker 1 00:43:47 Always thought that Christmas trees looked stupid as hell without presents underneath it. And you know, I just like throwing shit under there that says from Santa. And like, you know, I'm, I would say I'm a very good gift giver, but at the same time, sometimes I think that it's more of like the thought of a gift than what it actually is. Yeah. Cause like, I'm not somebody to get you, you know, useless shit. Like, I, I listen and like, you know, if I was getting you a gift, I would've like remembered something that you said to me like six months ago. You're like, oh man, I'd really love like, like a, I just want like a pack of shoelaces. So I'll be like, oh, I'm gonna get this guy a pack of shoelaces. Speaker 2 00:44:27 I was like, well you got me cocaine and a bear. You really were paying attention. Yeah. Speaker 1 00:44:31 Merry Christmas. <laugh>. Merry Christmas. It's like this bear's from India. His name's Belu <laugh>. The cocaine is separate. It's just part of the gift. Do not give the Speaker 2 00:44:41 Bear. Yeah. Do not, do not give that bear cocaine. We've seen the trailer. Speaker 1 00:44:44 Yeah. Meth is fine, but cocaine is not okay in Speaker 2 00:44:46 Alet shit. Speaker 1 00:44:47 Oh, okay. Um, but yeah, I, uh, when I get terrible gifts, I don't know what to do with them. And they usually just sit in a box until they get re-gifted. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>, uh, like one of the worst gifts. This sounds stupid cuz I've gotten a bunch of these. One of the worst gifts is like, you know how you go to like Walmart or Target or like Ross and they got like a black label bottle of Johnny Walker and a box with ribbons all around it with two glasses. Glasses. Two glasses. Yeah. And I'm just like, when you get me that, I'm like letting you know that, that, thank you. That's going to somebody else that's like, I'm not gonna keep that <laugh>. I'm not gonna keep that. I don't need the glasses. I don't need the booze. Like obv, like, you don't need like, fuck that. Like, I hate that gift Speaker 2 00:45:31 In our, uh, me and my friends younger and less married, less kids' days. We used to have, um, a Yankee swap like white elephant, but it was all, it was just booze <laugh>. So everyone had to bring a booze and it had to be like X amount of dollars. Cause some people like fucking wheeled out and got like one, I I tried to do it. Yeah. One year I accidentally gave away a bottle of mixer cause I didn't read the label. <laugh> Speaker 1 00:45:53 <laugh>. Speaker 2 00:45:54 I was like, oops, shit, my bad. I'll use some alcohol. Speaker 1 00:45:56 Merry. Here's some Kahlua. Yeah. Speaker 2 00:45:59 <laugh>. But, uh, yeah, it'd get, yeah, we'd usually like, you know, Yankee swap and like, you know, everyone get like the souvenir shit or it'd get just fucking trashed afterwards and go out. Just like, just become menes like a dozen people swapping all the alcohol. Cause it didn't matter what you ended up with. Like you said, we were all gonna get fucked. We're all gonna drink it. Yeah. Yeah. Speaker 1 00:46:20 That's fun. It Speaker 2 00:46:21 Was a really fun, uh, you know, I do miss Dangerous game. Speaker 1 00:46:24 I do miss those like single nowhere to go holiday parties. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>. Like those were always fun as hell. Yeah. Like there, it's like, it's so funny because like, you get excited for those parties. You'd go to those parties, you'd have like the time of your life and then you get home and you're like the most bummed you've ever been. <laugh> like the most Speaker 2 00:46:42 Bummed, just drained. Speaker 1 00:46:44 Just like nothing is open. Nobody's trying to tie one off. Everybody's with their families and you're just like, man, Speaker 2 00:46:52 <laugh> <laugh>. Speaker 1 00:46:54 Oh, I miss them. But like, it's that, it's the comedown that I'm, I don't miss. Yeah. The comedown I don't miss at all. But, um, yeah. Before we, uh, before we take our next break, I do want to let you know, like this year I have to buy the crab legs for our, our little broil. Like every year my brother, like, he's like crab leg broil. Here we go. Like, we just, we we do crab legs, shrimp, lobster, just Speaker 2 00:47:19 Like, is that okay? Forgive me for being white. Is that a black thing? Like, like seafood on Christmas or New Year's? Oh. Cause I, um, when I moved to this neighborhood, the Adrian's like, where I go, like, um, it was fucking, it's like Seafood Central on New Year. It's like, it's insane. It's like, okay, I'm, there's something here. Yeah. Like something's going on and I don't know about it. Speaker 1 00:47:40 Well, like Speaker 1 00:47:43 I'm not sure if it's a seafood thing, but I'll tell you right now, as a, uh, African American, straight up African American, if it's a holiday, we gonna cook. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, we going cook, like we going cook. And so when it's the holidays, there's nothing really that comes to us, uh, as this is the go-to. So we're just like, okay, what do we like that we're not gonna eat all the time? Mm-hmm. <affirmative> lobster, crab legs, let's throw down. Yeah. You know, like, I don't fuck with cooked fish. I think it's nasty. That's my personal thing. Speaker 2 00:48:16 Yeah. My rule of fish is, unless I don't see you cook it, I'm not going eat it. Yeah. Speaker 1 00:48:20 I don't fuck with fish. Like, I'll have some sushi, I'll eat some raw fish, which is weird, but once you cook it, it starts tasting all fishy. Speaker 2 00:48:26 I mean, people's, yeah. There's only two ways to cook fish. It's good. Or it's trash. That's it. Speaker 1 00:48:31 Your, your wife told me the funniest thing while we were working on Mc Uh, uh, we're working on that cooking show. Uh, that why she doesn't like, I don't like when people like fuck up fish. Like it's very telling when you describe the thing that you're cooking as it being disgusting, overcooked, or not. Well, with the name of that thing mm-hmm. <affirmative>. So when you eat fish and it's not good, you describe it as too fishy. Yeah. Like, you never have chicken. Like, oh, it tastes too chicken. Or it tastes too beef. Like if you eat some bad beef, like, oh, this shit's game engrossed. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>, you eat some chicken, like, oh, this chicken's rotten salmon. Salmonella. Salmonella. Yeah. You eat some bad fish or that fish doesn't taste good. You're like, this is too Speaker 2 00:49:13 Fishy. It's too fishy. And Speaker 1 00:49:14 Like, and I was Speaker 2 00:49:14 Like, I need, I need it to be taste less like what it is. Yeah. Speaker 1 00:49:18 <laugh>. But yeah, that was your wife that told me that. And it was great. It was great. Um, but yeah. Um, if I don't get to see you before the next segment, I want to say happy holidays and Speaker 2 00:49:29 The next segment. Holy shit. What are we doing? Speaker 1 00:49:30 Oh, I can't tell you that, that's surprise for everyone in the audience. So you guys, if Bennett's not here, I didn't do it. Speaker 2 00:49:37 Mary. Hey, happy holidays everybody. Speaker 1 00:49:39 <laugh>. Happy Kwanza. We'll be right back. Speaker 1 00:50:07 Ladies and gentlemen, thank you so much for sticking around. You've reached the end of our podcast. Uh, we got something a little different for you here. Um, so, uh, for some of our longtime listeners, you know about our little segment called Papa's Pulpit. That's a segment where we rant and rave about a subject, something that's irking us or maybe something that we want to project, uh, that's good. Something that we just really wanna pour our support into. Either way, we're not gonna do this this time. It's a little modified pulpit. Uh, this time. We have things that are annoying us. There's a few things on this list and, you know, you guessed it, it's gonna end with Kanye's Corner, but <laugh>, um, starting off, I know we were talking about this in a break, uh, in Germany, 25 people were arrested in a what seems to be a foiled plot to take over the government and a lot of their views were inspired by Americans qan movement. What the fuck? Speaker 2 00:51:00 Yeah, it's spreading <laugh>. Speaker 1 00:51:03 It's a literal disease. Yeah, it's a literal disease. Speaker 2 00:51:06 Well, that's, it's like Germans and like, you know, I haven't been in Germany, but what I understand is like, there's lots of laws in the books like do to, they do not fuck around with Nazis. They do not fuck around people talking about bringing back Nazis. And I think a lot of these, you know, some of these people were along those lines and the Q Qan lines and like, they had God weapons and they had platting and like, they cut it down quick. Speaker 1 00:51:30 Yeah. Germany's like, yo bro, not again. No. Like, they went through that twice. They went through like a fascist regime that decimated the country twice, and they're like, we're not fucking around with this. They're Speaker 2 00:51:41 Doing that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Speaker 1 00:51:42 Like, people need to get that shit together. Like, if you're white, come to America, do that shit. You'll be safe here. Speaker 2 00:51:49 <laugh>. Well, yeah. Get an old slap on your wrist. Yeah. You get, try to abduct a governor and, uh, you know, barely see jail time. Maybe Speaker 1 00:51:55 You get a couple rapper endorsements. Who knows. Um, but, uh, next on our list is actually Ben, what you were talking about <laugh> San Fran, Cisco. Speaker 2 00:52:05 Oh yeah. The killer, killer robots. <laugh>. Yeah. So like, they had proposed, they, a bill was introduced. Uh, like, it's like, okay, can we use lethal force with robots? Which is like one of the first rules of, of, you know, of robotics. Of robotics. It's like, do not use them to kill humans. <laugh> in San Francisco. It's like, but can we, and then they're like, Hey, look, we're not gonna, Hey, we're not gonna use guns. They're gonna be used for explosives. Geez. <laugh>. And then finally, I think today, or maybe late yesterday, finally like, okay, fine, fine. We won't use robots to kill. Speaker 1 00:52:41 It does not make sense. I'm trying to think of a situation in the past, maybe it didn't make the news where a cop was like, Hey, I really wish we had a robot that can blow this fucking building up like Speaker 2 00:52:53 Wounds. It's like, Speaker 1 00:52:55 Not like if a robot had like a flash bang or like sleeping gas or some shit. Speaker 2 00:53:00 <laugh> a stern voice. Yeah. <laugh> Speaker 1 00:53:04 Lethal force. Where'd you come up with that idea? Like, who's the I'm, I wanna know what lobbyists are in these fucking city council's pockets where they're like, this seems like a good idea. Speaker 2 00:53:17 Yeah. We need, we need to get as many debt, you know, Robocops on the street. Like, we've all seen Robocop. We know how this is. Speaker 1 00:53:24 It does not end well. It does not end well. Speaker 2 00:53:26 No. Speaker 1 00:53:27 Like, they're gonna Speaker 2 00:53:28 Call the guy gets his dick shot off. That's how it is. <laugh>. That's how it ends, man. Speaker 1 00:53:35 Oh my God. It's so funny. Like, Sony got hacked. Like PlayStation got hacked. Google got Speaker 2 00:53:41 Hacked shit again, Speaker 1 00:53:41 And Sherry, uh, and uh, and Shion got hacked. Like our credit got hacked. And they want to have robots with explosives on 'em. Yeah. Get the fuck outta here. Speaker 2 00:53:53 It's so black. Me, it's, it's like even, it's like redneck black mirror. It's not even classy enough to be a Black Mirror episode. Speaker 1 00:53:59 People need to shut the fuck Speaker 2 00:54:01 Up up, but what, if not, what? Yeah. Right. What if, what if we just blow it up? Like what <laugh> It's a robot that can blow things up. I don't see the problem here. Write it on paper. If you Speaker 1 00:54:10 Need to blow something up. We have plenty of tools to do that from a distance. <laugh>, why do you gotta send a robot in there? Speaker 2 00:54:17 It, uh, you, there's drones. It's like, Speaker 1 00:54:20 We got drones. They got helicopters. The move, Speaker 2 00:54:23 And even drones aren't, it's like one of the, it's it's fucking arrogant. It's so arrogant to think that like, well, I mean, we'll be okay using their robots with guns. Like to, I know we all got it. We got Speaker 1 00:54:36 This. This whole pretend thing that police do that they're like ill-equipped to handle certain situations is bullshit. Like, we forget history. Um, I think it was in the seventies when move the, the, that black movement that was like, we don't wanna be a part of the government, blah, blah, blah. Like, there were guys in there doing shady shit. There were people who actually believed in that and believed in like, getting away from white America and governing themselves. It was in Philly, and I believe they fire bombed an entire block showed up there, guns in hand killed multiple people. Mm-hmm. Speaker 2 00:55:07 <affirmative>, Speaker 1 00:55:09 They, they didn't need a robot. They just had a like, Tulsa. Yeah. They didn't have a fucking robot. Like, killing people isn't something that we need to digitize. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>. Like, it's a, it's a San Francisco. Come on. These tech motherfuckers, like, are they sitting on their thumbs wondering what the hell's going on? Speaker 2 00:55:28 And I think you probably, uh, nailed it. I think probably had like, someone has a tech contract and Speaker 1 00:55:33 Like, oh fuck. Yeah, Speaker 2 00:55:34 I bet we could use some of that towards the police money and like, how could we make this money work for It's, I think it, it's probably that's the more nefarious, it's like, of course, it's like, who, you know, who, who, where's the money going? Like that's, that's honestly usually where the answer is, as opposed to like, Hey, can we just kill people with robots? <laugh>? It's like, can, you can leave with robots and how can I make money from it? That's usually the answer. Speaker 1 00:55:56 That's Yeah. You're a hundred percent right. That's usually where it goes. I mean, I, speaking of tech being stupid, like not to, I, I got two things to bring up here. And yo, I, we brought this up in our last episode, and I'm gonna continue to scream it from the headlines. We need to stop giving these fucking useless nerds who have no idea how to function in society. The keys to the culture of our society. <laugh>. Like, I can't, like the Speaker 2 00:56:24 Fact that Wait, which one, which one are you talking about? Speaker 1 00:56:26 I don't know. I could be talking about Zuckerberg. Yeah. I could be talking about Elon Musk. I could be talking about Donald Trump. Who the fuck knows <laugh> all? I'm like, I'm saying like the metaverse. Come on man. Like, come on. Like, please, please just make amazing video games. That is it. That's all VR needs to be. Like, I don't, nobody needs to go to work in the metaverse. Nobody wants to hang out at a fucking coffee shop in the Metaverse. Like, like Speaker 2 00:56:54 We did it. Like we did it. We did it for a year. It's called Zoom. It Speaker 1 00:56:57 Was, and people Speaker 2 00:56:59 Hated Speaker 1 00:56:59 It. It was terrible. So you're gonna tell me that you want me to make my own person with no legs and figure it out. Come on, bro. Speaker 2 00:57:07 We got legs. Ah, Speaker 1 00:57:09 Dude. Fix your fucking algorithm. Make Instagram chronological again. Take all the hate off fucking Facebook. Don't create another universe where people can be shitty. Like, god damn, like this is not what we need. These billion dollar companies are trying to figure out like, how can we make more money? Make the world a better place? People will invest in that. That's it. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>. That's it. Like, imagine, like, imagine if Facebook came out with like Facebook, like meta cafes. Meta cafes are for people who, you know, they don't have great broadband. They don't have, uh, a quiet place to go work. And you can go to a me, like a meta cafe, rent a cubicle. It has, it remembers all your shit. It has everything you need and you can work from there. So you're not sitting at a fucking Starbucks while some fucking crackhead comes into fucking pee. You're not sitting at a local coffee shop where somebody's trying to fucking sing their rendition of, uh, I shot the sheriff some white guy with dreads. Like, I'm just saying, like, they can put their money towards something else that people can actually use and be helpful, but oh, you know what? Let's create a different reality where people can be the same and Speaker 2 00:58:22 Shoot. No, it's like, it's, it's, you know, taste being made by people with no taste. <laugh>. It's like people there until their entire lives have elite. You. The whole reason that like Zuckerberg is here is cuz he made a website where he wanted to rank hot girls in college. And now, and now he, now we're Speaker 1 00:58:40 Here. We're here. Jesus Christ. Speaker 2 00:58:43 Like Elon Musk. It's like, what was he a paper? He was PayPal. Was that how he got his money? Yeah, he was, Speaker 1 00:58:48 He was a rich kid whose dad fucking murdered some money who was heavily invested in apartheid. He co-founded fucking PayPal, sold it for a bunch of money, bought Tesla and the brand off. I forgot whatever the fuck his name is. And now he thinks he's God's gift to humanity. Speaker 2 00:59:04 Yeah. Speaker 1 00:59:05 Jesus. Like that guy has so many broken promises. Hyperloop dead fucking neural link dead. Hey, I made a flame thrower. Cool. Who needs it? Speaker 2 00:59:16 I, I want him to get his ass to Mars. Speaker 1 00:59:18 Why? Speaker 2 00:59:19 Come on, let's do it. Get him to Mars. I'm fine with with that, dude. Just, it's a long trip. Speaker 1 00:59:22 Why don't you just build a goddamn submarine that can go down to the bottom of the earth and pick up a ship full of gold or some shit? Why are you trying to go to Mars? Fuck you, God damn. Anyway, um, my second thing I want to complain about is I, I don't know if you've recently seen it, A bunch of people have been like posting their, uh, artistic versions of themselves that Speaker 2 00:59:43 The AI app, that everyone's like, no, how, how could I miss that? Yeah. How everyone is doing it. It, um, on Instagram, it's, it's like artists that I follow, like, you know, some digital, some whatever, like, fucking hated and like, but they're, it, like, everyone else loves seeing themselves at different angles. Speaker 1 01:00:02 Dude, I saw that and I'm like, that's terrifying. Like, I remember that app came out where you can take a picture of yourself and it'll show what you'll look like in 50 years. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>. And I was like, uh, wait, what? And I, I didn't do it to myself, but I just took a bunch of pictures of my friends and upload it into the thing. And like, a lot of my friends were like, what are you doing? Don't use my life. Like, what are you doing? And I'm like, yeah, I guess if I didn't wanna do it, <laugh> Speaker 2 01:00:27 Stop it Speaker 1 01:00:28 If I didn't wanna do it. But like, you guys have to understand, these are companies, like, they can't just take your face and throw it in the trash can. Like, that's gonna be sold. It's going to be used for something. Speaker 2 01:00:37 No, your face is being used to make more faces. Like, Speaker 1 01:00:39 It's, it's, Speaker 2 01:00:41 I mean, that's basically, it's like pulling, you know, from endless amounts of streams of artwork, unasked, un you know, people's original artwork, like, you know, pulled together to make this thing. And like, I definitely, like, there's some AI artists that I think is interesting. Like, if there's people I follow on Instagram that use the algorithm, like the one guy I follow makes is making this like horror, you know, horrifying Italian horror western show that never existed from like, you know, just ai. Yeah, just ai. It looks, it looks a cool as. Shit. There's Speaker 1 01:01:08 A lot of those. I, there's this goal, Speaker 2 01:01:10 But he's also a real, he's also an artist who had used pen and paper too. You know, Speaker 1 01:01:13 There's these kids, uh, who are, there's these three guys, they're like producers or some shit. But what they started to do is they used AI to compose music videos. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>. So they just take songs and have AI listen to the song and create like these artistic stills with lyrics played into it. And I'll show it to you, but Oh my God, it's fucking cool. Speaker 2 01:01:32 Yeah. Like any medium. I think that's like, it's something that, it is definitely cool. Uh, but like any new technology, the original owners are gonna be left in the pack, is like, yeah. It's unfortunately, like, if you're an artist, like your shit is gonna be chewed up and spit out like a lot in this. I mean, it always has, but like in this day and age, it's like, if you're someone on Instagram that's like a web cartoonist, like your shit's gonna be used and you know, in and out, your name's in and out. Like, it just like, it happens all the time now. Speaker 1 01:02:01 All the time. All the time. And what really sucks about all this art stuff is that you're taking artificial intelligence to analyze everything that these humans, these real people have created from their minds. Something that cannot be replicated, analyze it so this computer can come up with its own derivative bullshit. Yeah. And it's like, Speaker 2 01:02:21 And because if you look at 'em, they're all like, they're all kind of the same. Speaker 1 01:02:25 They're all the Speaker 2 01:02:25 Same. It's all the same kind of shiny, shiny skin. Like, Speaker 1 01:02:29 Oh, oh, what if this was a Caigo album cover? Oh, what if this was an old tiny gas gaslight, uh, gas pump. Speaker 2 01:02:37 Oh, sting Speaker 1 01:02:38 Pump Steampunk. That's it. Mm-hmm. <affirmative> steampunk, uh, version of yourself. Ooh. What if it was anime? It's just like, that's cool that you didn't have to hire somebody to do that. And there's something to do that for you. But we can't sit there and say like, this is the fucking future. Like, Speaker 2 01:02:54 I think it's gonna be like any fa where it's like, it's Speaker 1 01:02:56 Anim and it's out. Yeah. Speaker 2 01:02:57 In two weeks it's gonna be gone. Speaker 1 01:03:00 <laugh> boo. Mm-hmm. Speaker 2 01:03:01 <affirmative>. But yeah, it's, uh, yeah, I think AI art is something that is an, like, it could be a cool medium, but it also could be just a fucking waste of time and a waste of real, you know, I'm a use real artists, uh, <laugh> Yeah. Real artists labor in time and, you know, dedication. Yeah. Speaker 1 01:03:19 It's fuck these fucking robots. They're Speaker 2 01:03:22 Coming. Yeah. Yeah. What that, what kind of, we are in a one fun dystopia. Right? Speaker 1 01:03:25 Yo, we, like, there's countless movies about what we're literally going through. I'm like, we just don't learn. We just don't learn. No, I've, people sound the alarm about this shit and we're like, eh, nah, it'd be fine. Speaker 2 01:03:35 This is the profound statement I've made earlier, and I'll make it again on the record. Uh, like, society changes and we adapt and evolve, but people don't change. Like, people are the exact same as we have been since we started banging rocks together to make fire. Like we, I was listening. They just finished this true crime book, uh, and there was this, uh, serial killer, uh, guy who married, you know, married 29 women would, you know, steal their money and leave them or steal their money and kill them. You the fuck outta here. Yeah. Like, one of the people that time forgot, like right after, right after the Civil War. This happened Speaker 1 01:04:08 Right after the Civil War. Speaker 2 01:04:09 This happened. Yeah. Civil war. This is happening. He just marry people and take their money and kill, you know, and like kill em. Jesus Christ. During his trial, his child was packed with women trying to get his attention. Like, you know, he was flooded with letters. Like, like, you know, like your fucking Ted Bundys or whatever. It's like people are the same. Like, you know, people are the same. Damn. We, society can get better, but people, human nature is real fucking deep in Speaker 1 01:04:34 Us. I've been walking around here thinking I'm original this whole time. It's probably been an ob fucking 70 years ago. Yeah. Complaining about the same shit. Mm-hmm. Speaker 2 01:04:41 <affirmative>, Speaker 1 01:04:42 God damn <laugh>. All Speaker 2 01:04:45 Right. But didn't have cool PJs like Speaker 1 01:04:48 You Oh yeah. My PJs are stick <laugh>. Speaker 2 01:04:51 That is one thing is Hey, it's a lot cooler PJs though. Yeah. Comfort. Comfort Technology has come a long way. I appreciate Is that Speaker 1 01:04:59 True? That is true. That's what we should point all our shit to is just like, how can I be more comfortable? Speaker 2 01:05:02 Yeah. Oh, the, every time I see Speaker 1 01:05:04 That I got Tempur-Pedic slippers, bro. I Speaker 2 01:05:06 Don't have to wear a, a suit like every day in my life. And a hat and a fucking Kirk chf. Ugh. Thank fuck I'm wearing the clothes I slept in. God. I Speaker 1 01:05:13 Love it, dude. I got five suits. I love getting suited up. I'll be gonna get suited up tonight just for, for shits Speaker 2 01:05:17 And giggles. I have one, the suit. The suit. I have the suit I got married in. Then the suit, I'll be buried in <laugh>. Speaker 1 01:05:27 All right, well moving on. Um, for those of you guys who have not been following, we can officially call it here, um, Herschel Walker has lost to Raphael and Warnock. Um, it looks like Raphael and Warnock has been elected, so I believe a six year term moving forward. Um, I'm gonna be honest, it was very, very discouraging how close that race was. Speaker 2 01:05:55 Oh, it was terrifying. Speaker 1 01:05:57 It like a literal moron. A literal idiot who does not stand for any of the values he's projecting onto others. Speaker 2 01:06:05 Before we even like talk to you about as a character didn't even leave in live in the state, like lives in Texas, Speaker 1 01:06:10 Did not even Speaker 2 01:06:11 Live in the States flat out motherfucker lives in Texas. End of statement does not even, or Georgia resident should not be in the race. A Speaker 1 01:06:19 Literal Nigerian candidate was running Yeah. Speaker 2 01:06:21 But handpicked by Donald Trump. Speaker 1 01:06:24 It's, it's Speaker 2 01:06:25 Debated about the strength of werewolves and vampires. We learned way more about his, you know, his stance on abortion versus his views on abortion. Speaker 1 01:06:35 Dude, hey, this guy, I I, I saw an interview, which really bothered me, but, you know, this is again, media finding the craziest people. Um, they were trying to compare the religious views of both the candidates, uh, in Georgia that are running. Oh yeah. And you know, people sitting there talking about, oh yeah, I love, uh, Herschel Walker. He's a true man of God. Every time I've seen him, he's brought up the Lord. You can tell his faith is strong that he follows values, that he's really connected, that the, you know, the God, God has put his hand on Herschel Walker. And I remember this, uh, interviewer, uh, the, the reporter was like, Hey, you know, no pun intended, but I kind of wanna play devil's advocate here. Rafael Warnock has been a reverend for 25 years. He has literally dedicated his life to lo to the Lord, like lives his life to by God doesn't Ms. Church on Sundays. Yeah. Speaker 2 01:07:34 Like, like he's it, Speaker 1 01:07:34 Like he does his town halls at churches. He donates to all his local churches. And, you know, he has drives and has been heavily involved his entire life with the church and giving back to the community. And they're like, oh no, he's a C charlatan. He's fake <laugh>, he's fake. And I'm like, okay, well let's interview someone else. <laugh>. Yeah. Speaker 2 01:07:57 Move it on. I guess Speaker 1 01:07:58 That guy's obviously projecting his own reality onto the world. Like that's just not true. Speaker 2 01:08:05 It's, uh, yeah, religion's scary, man. I mean, belief is scary. Like belief can get into somebody, but once it's, once that Jesus is on your side, it's, oh, that's a scary thought. Like knowing that Jesus is on your side, that's a dangerous idea. Speaker 1 01:08:20 It's very, very dangerous. And speaking of Jesus <laugh>, ladies in general, we're gonna close out this episode with another installment of Kanye's Corner. Mm-hmm. <affirmative> yays coe, ba ba ba ba ba ba. Um, so, uh, <laugh>, I am really, really, really getting tired of Kanye. I, he is literally reaching into the barrel of disgust to find an interview and a platform. Uh, uh, his latest tirade was on Infowars. Yeah. Um, you know, he walked off an interview with another YouTube personality, this like guy who fes to be a libertarian and says that he's both sides. He wouldn't say the Jews, he wouldn't say that Jews are the ones. And so Kanye walked off the interview. Speaker 2 01:09:02 Yeah, he was, he was winking so hard. His eyeball almost fell out, but it Speaker 1 01:09:05 Didn't work. It did not work. Um, but yeah, he was on, he was on Alex Jones and dude, like the, Speaker 2 01:09:13 He was really getting into, uh, Hitler's good points. And, you know, Hitler's hits Hitler that hits a Hitler <laugh>. He was getting in his own mind, uh, beautiful dark struggle, like right air on Infowars. Well done. Thank you. But saving that all week, <laugh>. Uh, it's in like, Speaker 1 01:09:31 He Speaker 2 01:09:32 Was like, he was dressed like in like, I mean Speaker 1 01:09:36 He was in literal blackface. Speaker 2 01:09:37 Yeah, I was gonna say he was dressed in, I'm glad you said he was dressed in blackface. <laugh>. Like he was dressed in like a root suit. Like gonna go see like, I don't know who, who has black and gold as their colors. Like what? His buddy was gold and he was black. Like he couldn't see. He was, dude, Speaker 1 01:09:50 This guy is, it's wild. And like, you know, like when I say I get tired of this shit, it's because like, I've already said this before, like, he is definitely going through something. Like he's definitely off his meds. He's definitely just unhinged, but at the same time, he's a goddamn bigot. Like everything he's saying, he has like, you know, that he's doing shit for shock values thinking in his head that's working. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>. But he does not understand, he cannot compliment, comprehend the damage he's doing, not only to his family, not only to his brand, but to people who are at risk. And, you know, going up on this show, like, I'm not gonna tell anybody to watch this interview that he has with Alex Jones making Alex Jones look sane. But Speaker 2 01:10:33 That's a feat. Like making Alex Jones look uncomfortable was, is a treatment itself Speaker 1 01:10:38 That was, it was Speaker 2 01:10:39 Wrong. Whoa. Whoa. Well, for he's Speaker 1 01:10:41 Straight up lying. It's like, it's not about truth and free speech. Like Hitler did not invent the freeway. Yeah. Speaker 2 01:10:47 Like what? Like he didn't invent the microphone. He speaking Hitler did not invent this. Speaker 1 01:10:51 Hitler did not invent the microphone. Like, you know, our producer brought something fucking hilarious of, I think you brought it up about how he didn't talk about his paintings at all. Yeah. I was like, you wanna talk about the lighter side of Hitler? He painted dogs <laugh>. Yeah. Speaker 2 01:11:04 His landscape is never brought into picture by Kanye. Yeah. Like Speaker 1 01:11:07 You're reaching, if you're passing the painting phase of the fucking, Speaker 2 01:11:11 And if we're talking Speaker 1 01:11:12 AIC version of Speaker 2 01:11:13 Hitler, it's one of those things that's like, he has a little bit of truth and I think he's in Kanye world, but it's like, yes. Like there was German technology, like the real to real recording was a, not was a German, uh, spoil of war that we took. Yes, yes. I guess certain things like that, like, you know, the fact that we got to the moon was, you know, we stole the German scientists and gave them us citizenships. Uh, those are facts, you know, but I don't think he did the highways. I think that's, I think that's incorrect. But Speaker 1 01:11:41 Yeah, like this whole idea that he had, like, one thing that he kept on saying is like, I love Jewish people and I also love Nazis. Like, you can't say that all. Like I'm saying all Jewish people are bad by demonizing a couple of them. And you can't demonize all Nazis. And then like, I'm gonna stop you right there. You can, yeah. Because being a, you're not born a Nazi. You like, you become a Nazi. You identify with the bad things the Nazi did. There's no party walking around. Speaker 2 01:12:07 So yeah, there was a very specific generation that was born a Nazi and like, uh, and that's it. That's it. It was probably like a 10 years of like you were born a Nazi and that's it. You can't Speaker 1 01:12:18 Walk around saying like, oh, I appreciate the fucking Nazis for all the good that they did. Like there was no, like, there's no coalition right now of like, Nazis for infrastructure Speaker 2 01:12:28 <laugh>. It's like, you know, I appreciate the Nazis cuz they're really good at keeping track of what awful people they were <laugh> like that <laugh>, you can't even think of a backhanded compliment dude. Speaker 1 01:12:37 Like Yeah, there's, you can't say like, I think he's just, he met the German people. Speaker 2 01:12:43 I, I mean that's the thing is like, it's, Speaker 1 01:12:44 You can't interpret. Speaker 2 01:12:45 I'm tired Speaker 1 01:12:46 Of like, loony tune is saying Speaker 2 01:12:47 The story of the wears, you know, the new clothes. It's like, I'm tired of watching that story every fucking day on the news. Like all these naked people talking about how great their new clothes are, bro. Cause no one wants to tell 'em they're naked. No one in their life wants to tell 'em how naked they look. Speaker 1 01:13:01 Dude, people who do bad things and then act like they're not doing bad things is something that the media needs to stop covering and start calling it out. There's like a few people like, you know, Don Lemon and, uh, Stephanopoulos, like, there's a couple people who like push back, but it's very, very few in our media structure that don't just be like, oh, uh, you say it's raining outside. He says, it's not raining outside. I went out, look, it's not raining, but you bring up a valid point how it could be raining and that's your opinion and how you feel like, no, no, he's wrong. It's not Speaker 2 01:13:33 Raining. It's not raining. Motherfucker look Speaker 1 01:13:35 Like, get the fuck outta here. It's fucking wild. Like, uh, you know, we just, uh, we saw that video, uh, the January 6th, uh, Congress, uh, uh, for us, you not paying attention. Congress, they, uh, honored all the responders and the capital police for Speaker 2 01:13:51 Yeah. The family members of people had lost and the, Speaker 1 01:13:53 Yeah, they got, uh, they, I think it's like a gold star I think of something like that. They, they were all honored and I am so happy that these people who were the closest to this situation actually understand what the fuck is happening. Because they received their honors. They hugged Nancy Pelosi, they shook Chuck Schumer's hand. They said, thank you for your service. And there's Kevin McCarthy and Mitch McConnell sitting there like a couple of goobers with Speaker 2 01:14:18 Their father. Fuck with their hands. They're Speaker 1 01:14:19 With their hands out, Speaker 2 01:14:20 Pale, hands out, ready Speaker 1 01:14:22 To shake. And they all walked past them. They're like, I Speaker 2 01:14:25 The first old head you could literally shake. He, he's Speaker 1 01:14:28 Shaking his Speaker 2 01:14:29 Head. He's yourself. Yeah, exactly. Shake his head no. He's Speaker 1 01:14:31 Like, no, they're not. Speaker 2 01:14:32 They didn't even take their medals. Like, they're like, they didn't take the metals from them, they just, just fucking left Speaker 1 01:14:36 Them. They, they're like, no man, we see what you've been doing, like you've been running cover for these motherfuckers. Speaker 2 01:14:40 That's whole fucking shit. And I love it. I love it. I, I I hope I'd have the same kind of balls, Speaker 1 01:14:46 Dude. That's my hope and humanity right there. Yeah. It's Speaker 2 01:14:49 Just like, like to be like, no thank you. Speaker 1 01:14:50 But like, you know what's funny? It's like, that's what I'm saying about the media. Like the media makes it seem like it's 50 50. Like some people believe that January 6th was a fucking insurrection and it can't be tolerant. And they make us believe that 50% of the country are like, ah, no, it was a field trip. Like, I don't know. It's not so bad. That's not the case. Mm-hmm. <affirmative>, they just amplifying the voices of these morons. And that's my circle back to fucking yay. We gotta stop amplifying this guy's voice. He's a fucking recording artist that has tripped up. He was just one of the most famous recording artists. I don't care what he thinks. Like now that I know what he thinks, graduation's done late registration ain't getting played at my house. Yeah, that's a lie. Some of that shit's fired. Speaker 2 01:15:31 I still have, I mean some Speaker 1 01:15:32 Of that shit Speaker 2 01:15:32 Is is like, I don't wanna talk about if I'm gonna still listen to Kanye or not. Cuz the thing is, I probably will. These Speaker 1 01:15:39 Niggas got me. I hate these niggas more than the Nazis did not age well. Speaker 2 01:15:43 <laugh> Speaker 1 01:15:44 Did not age well. Speaker 2 01:15:46 So that being said, I think it's time to pull the permit. I think it's time to get the sledge hammers out. Dude, I think it's time to demolish Kanye's corner. Start, Speaker 1 01:15:55 Start flashing the lights, man. Like we gotta, this is it. This is it. Kanye's corner officially on Papa Don preach. You have been signed off. We are gonna forget about you.
