Speaker 11 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Tim Dylan Show, another atmospheric rain event here in Los Angeles, a storm.

Speaker 13 Cleansing the air of the fire, which is nice, cleansing the air of the hellish fire should be

Speaker 18 a 48-hour strongest storm in a year bearing down on Southern California.

Speaker 21 could cause flooding.

Speaker 23 The terms now for these are always,

Speaker 17 you know, the most extreme.

Speaker 24 They're like atmospheric,

Speaker 26 you know, sky storm.

Speaker 18 It's never like it's going to rain for two days.

Speaker 27 When I grew up, it was like it's raining.

Speaker 11 And now it's like an atmospheric,

Speaker 12 you know,

Speaker 29 river or something they call it.

Speaker 31 Like a.

Speaker 23 What is the term for this?

Speaker 16 It's like a river of

Speaker 32 raging.

Speaker 33 Even the way they write about it, they're like raging torrents of rain and

Speaker 38 atmospheric river they call it what happened to rain like it was it's going to rain a lot now it's an atmospheric river

Speaker 41 raging torrents of rock slides and mudslides that can be damaging and even deadly

Speaker 42 yeah

Speaker 33 well that's not ideal But it doesn't it doesn't help to call it an atmospheric river.

Speaker 14 It's like a river is falling out of the sky onto

Speaker 50 whatever

Speaker 9 that's why i sold my house you know obviously many people don't listen to the show they listen but they don't listen so they come up to me and they go did your house really burn down i go well it's pretty clear if you listen to the words

Speaker 14 Now, I did keep hammering it going, my house burned down, my house burned down, but there was a disclaimer early on when I said,

Speaker 10 i sold the house and i did i sold it last year because of

Speaker 58 the atmospheric river and torrents of raging atmospheric rain river in the sky the storm is arriving through an atmospheric river atmospheric river storms are long plumes of water vapor that can pour over from the Pacific Ocean into California.

Speaker 36 They carry so much water that they're said to be like a river in the sky.

Speaker 64 Just a few atmospheric river events can bring California from one-third to one-half of its annual precipitation.

Speaker 41 What's nice about this, though, is we've had more rain than we've ever had, and we still don't have any water to fight fires.

Speaker 67 So

Speaker 70 that's good that we have more water and yet none of it when it's needed because we don't have a way to trap it and keep it or whatever.

Speaker 58 But that's why I sold my home because my home was on a cliff.

Speaker 72 I had a beautiful house.

Speaker 35 It overlooked

Speaker 35 the valley, really.

Speaker 10 I mean, my view was towards the valley, but I looked at some of the hills and Beverly Hills and it was pretty.

Speaker 75 But, you know,

Speaker 20 the California mountains aren't like Colorado.

Speaker 7 You know, this isn't,

Speaker 74 you know, a mountain. This isn't limestone.

Speaker 17 This isn't, this is

Speaker 35 dirt.

Speaker 20 The hills of California are packed dirt that. with enough rain they all you know there's mudslides there are

Speaker 52 rock slides and people, you know, Mulholland Drive, which is the road that you took to get, one of the roads you took to get to my house,

Speaker 46 Boulder slid down and they, and, and destroyed Mulholland Drive and they closed it.

Speaker 77 And it took months and months and months to get

Speaker 80 the road back to where you can travel on it.

Speaker 35 And I didn't love that.

Speaker 45 I didn't like the idea of that.

Speaker 51 Again, I think it's, you know,

Speaker 36 this is, you know, when you experience climate, you have to decide what is and isn't your home.

Speaker 59 This is real.

Speaker 81 This is true.

Speaker 82 When you experience significant

Speaker 46 events

Speaker 83 that are out of your control, fires, floods, hurricanes.

Speaker 27 You have to decide how much you love a specific of this country, how much you're willing to sacrifice for it.

Speaker 22 Are you okay with having a home on the west coast of Florida if it happens to be destroyed?

Speaker 27 Can you bounce back?

Speaker 61 Is that no, you should think about this

Speaker 86 truly?

Speaker 33 Are you able to

Speaker 88 deal with the ramifications of an event

Speaker 45 like a category four hurricane

Speaker 37 if you are

Speaker 45 living on the west coast of florida can you deal with uh the fire

Speaker 17 in parts of the west coast

Speaker 35 or

Speaker 35 are

Speaker 35 you going

Speaker 32 to make a different choice

Speaker 67 what is your home are you willing to die for your home in your home Literally, are you willing to die in your home?

Speaker 16 Are you willing to save people in your home?

Speaker 75 Are you going to run around saving other people in the home?

Speaker 77 I don't mean your home.

Speaker 26 I mean your neighborhood, your town.

Speaker 45 How deep are you in?

Speaker 35 Are you rooted? Do you care?

Speaker 95 Are you willing to help the neighbors?

Speaker 51 Do you love the neighbors?

Speaker 35 Do you love it?

Speaker 96 Are you fighting for it? These are all real questions.

Speaker 35 They are.

Speaker 85 You have to decide where you want to, where your patch of dirt happens to be.

Speaker 99 Is it worth it?

Speaker 45 After we've had a wild year of fires and hurricanes and floods, and I'm not saying you can predict this.

Speaker 78 I'm also not saying you always have a choice.

Speaker 27 Your kids are in the school.

Speaker 52 Your job is there.

Speaker 66 I get it.

Speaker 26 I'm not an idiot.

Speaker 46 I know that sometimes you just have to deal with it.

Speaker 95 But there are people that are maybe younger or they have

Speaker 102 the ability

Speaker 27 to think about these things before they buy a home, before they plant roots in an area.

Speaker 87 What are you willing to deal with?

Speaker 100 It's a trade-off.

Speaker 56 For sure, it's a trade-off.

Speaker 25 You know,

Speaker 57 I don't know Elon Musk.

Speaker 29 I met Elon Musk one time

Speaker 17 at a New Year's party a few years ago in Austin.

Speaker 41 He was very gracious.

Speaker 10 He was very nice to me.

Speaker 106 A few of my friends were at that party.

Speaker 108 We spoke very,

Speaker 109 you know, it was a minimal amount of interaction that we had.

Speaker 110 He's an awkward guy.

Speaker 26 He's clearly on the spectrum.

Speaker 15 He clearly wants to be cool.

Speaker 27 He clearly wants to be liked.

Speaker 19 He has some brilliant thoughts in his head, and he's got other thoughts.

Speaker 66 He has some thoughts that have a lot of value, and I'm sure there are thoughts that do not.

Speaker 7 He is quickly becoming the most famous person in the world.

Speaker 31 I don't love this photo of Trump sitting there and Elon Musk standing over him in kind of an ominous way, you know, kind of wearing all black.

Speaker 37 I don't love that.

Speaker 113 And I don't, I'm not even suggesting that Trump is in somehow like,

Speaker 25 you know,

Speaker 115 in debt to Elon

Speaker 31 or being cucked by him in any way.

Speaker 63 I'm just saying the photo itself, I don't love.

Speaker 64 Now, obviously, Elon spent a lot of money to get Trump elected, and Elon put a lot of effort and energy into that election.

Speaker 116 And Elon's now working, I believe, as a special advisor, whatever the term is, with this Department of Government Efficiency.

Speaker 65 And he's going around

Speaker 82 and he is trying to purge

Speaker 101 the government of a lot of

Speaker 27 some of the government employees.

Speaker 47 He's trying to identify and isolate cases of corruption, waste,

Speaker 117 abuse.

Speaker 71 And,

Speaker 118 you know, he's not

Speaker 105 wrong to be doing this.

Speaker 19 This is something that Trump wants him to do.

Speaker 21 The aesthetics of it aren't ideal.

Speaker 45 Trump doesn't look like he's in control.

Speaker 32 Now, I'm not suggesting he's not.

Speaker 120 This is just the appearance of it. And appearances are, in many cases, reality.

Speaker 27 They're enough reality for people

Speaker 54 to form opinions.

Speaker 122 So I think having a press conference in the Oval Office where Elon Musk is standing over Donald Trump, dressed in all black,

Speaker 35 speaking more than Donald Trump,

Speaker 33 isn't great.

Speaker 121 I've predicted this relationship at some point was going to

Speaker 77 become

Speaker 35 difficult.

Speaker 7 I think that's starting.

Speaker 56 I'm not even saying that the U.S.

Speaker 110 aid program has

Speaker 82 an intrinsic value.

Speaker 123 I think some of it does.

Speaker 124 I mean, some of it for farmers.

Speaker 106 And I'm sure there are people all over the world that get some help from this program, but it is also an intelligence front.

Speaker 88 It is a CIA slash fund.

Speaker 63 They do use it to foment

Speaker 35 instability all over the world where they can.

Speaker 87 They provably use it domestically to fund protests.

Speaker 125 They provably use it for all kinds of activities.

Speaker 26 that are not necessarily in the best interest of the American public, but they're in the best interest of the CIA and the people that the CIA

Speaker 35 works for.

Speaker 33 That doesn't mean that everything that that agency does is bad, and that doesn't mean that there aren't people that depend on that agency who will suffer because it's completely closed down.

Speaker 26 It is tough to hear people that have watched Benjamin Netanyahu vaporize tens of thousands of Palestinian children who now come out and worry about children in other countries not getting help from the USAID program.

Speaker 31 That is what they call irony.

Speaker 102 I will say this:

Speaker 101 he's going to go into the Pentagon next.

Speaker 115 I mean, perhaps they're saying that some of the next targets might be the Department of Defense and Education.

Speaker 105 The Pentagon, we know,

Speaker 113 has lost lots of money.

Speaker 51 USAID, that program, has lost a lot of money.

Speaker 106 There are billions of dollars that are unaccounted for.

Speaker 77 The Pentagon,

Speaker 25 you know,

Speaker 27 I mean, I remember back to the days of the Iraq war when the Pentagon had lost billions of dollars, trillions of dollars unaccounted for.

Speaker 26 This isn't something new.

Speaker 61 And this doesn't seem to be something that anybody wants to happen,

Speaker 105 which might be,

Speaker 98 it might not be that bad that it's happening.

Speaker 63 I think Musk is doing it in a very sloppy way.

Speaker 76 I think he's got this band of 20-year-olds running around.

Speaker 114 I think the aesthetics of it make it seem like Trump isn't in control.

Speaker 115 And I think that

Speaker 11 makes Trump appear weak, which is not what he would want.

Speaker 127 And I think that there are going to be cuts that are sloppy.

Speaker 113 In the same way that when the Biden administration

Speaker 51 got everybody

Speaker 94 to

Speaker 45 administer these DEI programs, diversity, equity, and inclusion,

Speaker 46 they were done in a very sloppy

Speaker 73 way.

Speaker 35 This idea that we had to make sure that every company, every university,

Speaker 36 every athletics,

Speaker 129 you know,

Speaker 41 franchise

Speaker 46 had diversity, equity, and inclusion officers in it to make sure that they were hitting certain quotas

Speaker 39 and that the messaging of these institutions

Speaker 35 didn't exclude any group of people, no matter how statistically insignificant that group was.

Speaker 45 It was done in a very sloppy way.

Speaker 33 This is not unlike that

Speaker 103 in the sense that this is not a methodical approach.

Speaker 128 But I don't know that you have the time to do a methodical approach.

Speaker 86 That would be their argument.

Speaker 106 Their argument would be, well, we don't have time to be methodical. We have billions of dollars unaccounted for.

Speaker 82 We have tons of fraud and corruption.

Speaker 46 And the fact that Elon Musk happens to be the wealthiest man in the world certainly does not help the aesthetics of what's going on.

Speaker 131 Because here's the way this is being presented.

Speaker 101 These are government bureaucrats who are doing good things.

Speaker 104 They're good people.

Speaker 45 They're lovely.

Speaker 83 They are just here to help.

Speaker 21 They're just here to help.

Speaker 46 That's all USAID is.

Speaker 79 That's all we're doing in other countries is

Speaker 42 helping.

Speaker 67 That's why they love us so much.

Speaker 91 I love, by the way, I'm reading these articles and they go, USAID is one of the reasons people like us in the world.

Speaker 106 No, no one, nobody likes us.

Speaker 73 Nobody.

Speaker 106 Go to any of these countries where they have USAID.

Speaker 35 Half the people believe it's a CIA front.

Speaker 106 The other half know it is, and they all hate us.

Speaker 42 None of them like it.

Speaker 44 The idea that people adore us, yes.

Speaker 101 Is there,

Speaker 95 have we provided aid to people that have been grateful?

Speaker 86 Sure.

Speaker 102 But in mass, in totality, the idea that we're winning all these friends and everybody like, go travel the world.

Speaker 29 Tell me how much we're loved.

Speaker 37 Go tell, go travel the world.

Speaker 133 Tell me how much after we've overthrown governments, okay,

Speaker 68 invaded countries, occupied them, tortured their residents, kidnapped them in the middle of the night, put them in secret underground torture prisons.

Speaker 136 How much U.S.

Speaker 76 aid has made up for that in the minds of people?

Speaker 101 I'm asking, go travel the world and ask a lot of these people, do they really love us

Speaker 16 or are they full of shit?

Speaker 31 They don't love us, number one.

Speaker 122 I'm not saying U.S.

Speaker 119 aid

Speaker 102 doesn't have good things.

Speaker 112 The Republicans are trying to restart the farm aid package for a lot of the farmers that need aid because eggs are a trillion dollars because they had the Holocaust a bunch of chickens because of the bird flu they had to Benjamin Netanyahu like 30,000 chickens and now we all have to pay it's five dollars for eggs I notice it now I'm even noticing it the rich

Speaker 43 not the Elon Musk rich the working rich but eggs are a lot of money now So they're trying to restart, you know, because they had to get rid of all those chickens.

Speaker 35 We're off topic.

Speaker 66 The point is this.

Speaker 23 People think

Speaker 33 what's happening right now.

Speaker 60 Oh my God, trying to make progress with my finances has been a real problem.

Speaker 12 That's why I'm using Chime.

Speaker 22 Chime understands that every dollar counts.

Speaker 140 That's why when you set up a direct deposit through QIIME, you get access to fee-free features like overdraft coverage, getting paid up to two days early with direct deposit and more.

Speaker 30 Chime is banking done right.

Speaker 151 Not to mention access to over 47,000 fee-free ATMs, more than the top three national banks combined.

Speaker 153 I mean, QIIME is the best.

Speaker 103 The QIIME futures I love most, I love getting paid two days early with direct deposit.

Speaker 126 24-7 customer support comes in hand because sometimes I'll have a question at three in the morning about my direct deposit.

Speaker 158 It's so amazing that they can answer it then.

Speaker 3 Visit strengthenyourhouse.com.

Speaker 97 And I'm not saying I'm for all of it either.

Speaker 128 I'm not saying I agree with every single thing.

Speaker 46 Elon Musk and I was heavily critical of the visa thing. I remain so.

Speaker 7 I do not trust tech people.

Speaker 95 I don't trust what their end game is.

Speaker 51 They are creepy and disturbing, and a lot of what they want to do, I do not agree with.

Speaker 149 So don't tell me, you know,

Speaker 91 but the idea that

Speaker 45 every cut being made is to a government bureaucrat who's just a good do-gooder.

Speaker 33 who's trying to help other people isn't true.

Speaker 31 There are lots of people that work in our government

Speaker 57 who are incredibly corrupt and stealing money.

Speaker 88 This is a fact.

Speaker 38 They're working with members of the private sector doing this.

Speaker 94 That is completely 100% the truth.

Speaker 42 That doesn't mean that everyone is, but it does mean

Speaker 112 That if you take a magnifying glass to a lot of the programs in our government, they are useless

Speaker 113 they do not benefit anybody and they suck up a lot of tax dollars that could be going to help other people

Speaker 33 all the people talking about usaid

Speaker 71 um

Speaker 14 the the the problem with a lot of this stuff when you get on a moral high horse and you write articles in the washington post and the new york times and the atlantic about how valuable it is that the united states help people all over the world and that's a

Speaker 44 that's a, you know,

Speaker 77 understandable point of view, but it would be more understandable if any of these people were ever concerned about

Speaker 24 Detroit,

Speaker 94 Chicago,

Speaker 90 poverty in America, Virginia.

Speaker 27 upstate New York, parts of Pennsylvania, Florida.

Speaker 17 They do not concern themselves as much with domestic poverty, the inequality of wealth domestically.

Speaker 113 In fact, the only person who brought that up, Bernie Sanders, they all closed ranks to destroy.

Speaker 44 All of these establishment Democrats closed ranks to destroy Bernie Sanders and install.

Speaker 32 Joe Biden when they knew he was crazy.

Speaker 131 And I know people in Chicago that were part of that effort.

Speaker 104 This is a fact. fact.

Speaker 106 So all these establishment Democrats who don't care at all about wealth inequality in America,

Speaker 45 they don't care at all about deindustrialized areas where people are hopeless and they're unfentanol.

Speaker 62 They spent the last four years telling all those people they had white privilege and basically just shut up.

Speaker 73 They're men.

Speaker 16 And they caused all the problems.

Speaker 63 And then a lot of them voted for Trump and then they were shocked.

Speaker 35 Why did they do that?

Speaker 63 So at the end of the day, you can have the position that America is a wealthy country and should be going around the world helping people, but that's not what's going on.

Speaker 112 That's not all of what USAID is.

Speaker 131 It may not even be a majority of what USAID is.

Speaker 51 This is a slush fund that is being used for all kinds of reasons, but one of them is because the CIA and other agencies are using that money to go into these countries

Speaker 61 to foment the type of instability and chaos

Speaker 98 that causes America to intervene in that country, or it causes some type of coup where we can replace the leader of that country with somebody that is

Speaker 64 amenable to the interest of American multinational corporations.

Speaker 69 That's a lot of what is going on.

Speaker 33 It's not all of it.

Speaker 46 It's a lot of what's going on. Domestic protests, also partially funded by these NGOs, these nonprofits, this entire world of bullshit

Speaker 46 that exists that has never helped you or your family.

Speaker 104 It does not help people.

Speaker 35 A lot of it.

Speaker 52 USAID has faced accusations of inefficiency and waste over the years, including that it fails to measure the effectiveness of its programs.

Speaker 46 Much of U.S.

Speaker 98 AIDS money is handed out as grants or is subcontracted to aid groups and NGOs, right?

Speaker 52 Critics contend that USAID's use of American contractors and its large bureaucracy means that not enough money actually ends up helping those in need.

Speaker 33 This is like a charity.

Speaker 66 This is like a charity. A lot of charities are fake.

Speaker 76 We know that.

Speaker 102 There are real charities.

Speaker 70 It's Venmo.

Speaker 108 It's like it's helping people directly.

Speaker 7 Bethany does a great job.

Speaker 59 She hands cards and puts them in people's cash cards and gives them to people and goes, go buy what you need.

Speaker 41 Something Bethany Frankl does.

Speaker 38 And that is true.

Speaker 31 But a lot of charities, and I've spoken not only to her about it, but other people, a lot of charities,

Speaker 35 okay,

Speaker 73 are not transparent.

Speaker 93 And a lot of people don't get the help.

Speaker 65 They don't.

Speaker 103 This idea that all charities are just these

Speaker 139 entities that just seek to benefit people.

Speaker 54 A lot of charities get such a small percentage.

Speaker 104 I mean, a lot of the actual people get such a small percentage of

Speaker 35 what the charity takes in when you factor in overhead, operating expenses, the salaries of the staff.

Speaker 46 Now, you need some of that, and I understand it.

Speaker 32 That being said, if you think, if you, I mean, sometimes it's 10%.

Speaker 110 If you donate to a charity, sometimes the people on the other end are literally getting 10% of the fucking money.

Speaker 74 It's insane.

Speaker 65 That's why I don't donate.

Speaker 45 I donate to myself because I get 100% of the money.

Speaker 52 Transparency is big

Speaker 117 with me.

Speaker 191 So if I donate to myself,

Speaker 37 I get all of the money.

Speaker 92 There is no overhead.

Speaker 69 Whereas if I'm donating, I don't know, to just you know world aids

Speaker 35 sure

Speaker 35 but what where is it really where is it really

Speaker 86 and i help people directly

Speaker 42 i help

Speaker 113 people directly as you should

Speaker 112 doesn't anyone have a venmo in in africa

Speaker 7 That I can send the money to direct?

Speaker 78 I don't want to give it to a charity in Washington, D.C.

Speaker 132 Can i sell you

Speaker 68 can i overnight you something you need i'm i'm only half kidding the charity scam

Speaker 97 and then the government's involved the government's involved in the charity and it's and it's going to get better it's going to be more transparent now that the government now that the cia is involved with the charity it's going to be good

Speaker 91 we know the cia is full of charitable people.

Speaker 33 That's why they go into that line of work because they can't stop giving.

Speaker 112 That's why Alan Dulles started that organization because he couldn't stop giving.

Speaker 86 This is a guy, if you read his autobiography, who like watched his sister almost drown emotionless, stood there on the thing of the lake, on the side of the lake.

Speaker 112 The point is this.

Speaker 33 The idea that the United States government is running around the world just helping people is the craziest thing I've ever heard in my life.

Speaker 61 And I'm sorry to be,

Speaker 46 and again, this doesn't mean that I think Elon Musk is doing everything right.

Speaker 44 This just means that like we're gonna have to get a little, we're gonna have to sober up.

Speaker 64 I think there needs to be a Democratic Party and there needs to be

Speaker 27 an effective,

Speaker 64 functioning Democratic party and an effective functioning Republican Party.

Speaker 27 You don't want a one-party state.

Speaker 45 It would be lovely if there were lots of parties, but there are not.

Speaker 35 There's two.

Speaker 65 And if the Democrats don't drop the identity politics immediately, if they don't stop this righteous indignation, if they don't stop the pearl clutching, the culture has moved on in America.

Speaker 46 There's been a, you know, people are reasserting a type of traditional masculinity, again, that isn't focused around like we're gonna, but you know, it's not like we're gonna kill everyone.

Speaker 51 And it's not this toxic masculinity in the fevered imaginations of some of my friends.

Speaker 31 Some of it, I'm sure, has elements of that, but a lot of it's like, hey, we want to watch sports and drink beer and be guys

Speaker 16 and not be told that we are the source of all evil on the planet.

Speaker 46 I think that's reasonable. I think that's reasonable.

Speaker 34 Okay.

Speaker 101 The last four years and the intensity with which these cultural

Speaker 52 conversations were happening,

Speaker 78 it was incredibly destabilizing for a lot of people.

Speaker 61 And they want to kind of go back to something that feels a little bit more

Speaker 44 traditional.

Speaker 92 Okay. That doesn't mean that...

Speaker 62 you're throwing gay people off the roof.

Speaker 115 That doesn't mean that trans people shouldn't live normal, happy lives.

Speaker 191 It means that,

Speaker 133 you know, we need to take a beat, take a step back from,

Speaker 136 you know, we don't need to live in the 1950s, but we also don't need a thousand genders.

Speaker 103 We can't swallow that.

Speaker 98 The Democratic Party's got to cut this out.

Speaker 95 This is not helping anybody.

Speaker 98 You need to cut this.

Speaker 85 You need to stop doing that.

Speaker 32 I don't even know who this is for anymore.

Speaker 26 It's not.

Speaker 106 And I know that the right keeps calling them all pedophiles.

Speaker 112 There's nothing less sexual than the current state of the modern Democratic Party, by the way.

Speaker 79 None of this is even about sex.

Speaker 101 This is weird.

Speaker 100 It's like this bureaucratic office politics.

Speaker 34 Call me the right name or I'll have you fired.

Speaker 36 All of this shit that was done for four years, you're now seeing again.

Speaker 75 And it's happening. It's just happening.

Speaker 8 The right has now come to power and the right is doing the things they've always wanted to do, like shrink the government and eliminate bureaucrats.

Speaker 63 And it's everything I've heard since I'm a child.

Speaker 50 It doesn't mean it's a coup.

Speaker 190 It doesn't mean that we no longer live in a democracy.

Speaker 82 It's that the Republican Party has always wanted to shrink the government and get rid of waste.

Speaker 44 This is all that they've ever talked about.

Speaker 35 Okay.

Speaker 76 Now,

Speaker 52 the same way that the Democratic Party tried to purge all of these institutions of anyone that didn't subscribe to their policy of racial justice and equity and gender theory and all this gobbled,

Speaker 65 and they ran around doing the same same thing.

Speaker 66 And this is when a society starts to completely fall apart.

Speaker 69 When as soon as one side has power,

Speaker 43 all they try to do is purge anyone that doesn't subscribe to what they want.

Speaker 32 And this is deeply unhealthy.

Speaker 39 And this is how you get societies in the Middle East where you have Sunnis and Shiites and they just kill each other. The political process completely evaporates.

Speaker 41 It doesn't exist at all.

Speaker 113 You can't have discussions.

Speaker 53 You can't have debates.

Speaker 4 You do not vote.

Speaker 53 It is simply terrorism and war.

Speaker 97 That's what we want to avoid.

Speaker 35 We don't want that.

Speaker 133 So what we need to do is have a functioning Democratic Party that nominates a sane human being

Speaker 95 to lead the party.

Speaker 27 It cannot be children.

Speaker 95 Cannot be David Hogg. It cannot be a child.

Speaker 100 Not that they're children, but I don't want to hear from anyone in their 20s.

Speaker 122 I don't.

Speaker 100 I do not want to hear from anyone in their 20s.

Speaker 68 It doesn't help your case when all of the people on social media

Speaker 128 that you're bringing forward are people in their 20s or sadly, people in their 40s who are trying to ape the lingo of people in their 20s, which is even sadder.

Speaker 85 You have to kick.

Speaker 189 and purge.

Speaker 96 You have to kick these people out.

Speaker 133 You have to purge them.

Speaker 65 You have to bring in rational people that go, you know, we need people to have health care.

Speaker 93 We need people to have retirement.

Speaker 152 We need to ease people's economic insecurity.

Speaker 75 We need to not divide people on the basis of race and gender and sexuality.

Speaker 46 What we need to do is build a coalition of people based on the idea.

Speaker 64 that we all have similar interests regarding infrastructure, regarding the economy, regarding freedom, regarding abortion.

Speaker 27 A lot of people, you know, obviously are pro-choice.

Speaker 112 So

Speaker 122 it can be done.

Speaker 65 It's just not going to be done until they fully get rid of a lot of the garbage that they have.

Speaker 60 Oh my God, trying to make progress with my finances has been a real problem.

Speaker 77 If you look at the cultural moments right now, music, and also the right, stop whining about Kendrick Lamar's show, you idiots.

Speaker 67 Stop.

Speaker 57 Stop being

Speaker 120 the pearl clutching and the offense.

Speaker 95 The addiction outrage machine is over.

Speaker 104 It's being shut down. It actually is already shut down.

Speaker 40 It's like an amusement park that you pass.

Speaker 52 and you look at it to the left or to the right and you go, oh,

Speaker 35 oh, that must have been fun.

Speaker 34 And it was.

Speaker 59 Being angry all the time made a lot of people happy and it made a lot of people money.

Speaker 35 But it's over.

Speaker 86 It's shut down.

Speaker 45 No one has the energy for it.

Speaker 11 You cannot stay angry for your entire life.

Speaker 115 It's unnatural.

Speaker 52 Just the way you can't stay happy your entire life. There are going to be days that suck and days that are great.

Speaker 35 Okay?

Speaker 95 So at the end of the day, you cannot fly into a rage over every single thing.

Speaker 26 And when the right is yelling and screaming screaming about Kendrick Lamar for whatever reason,

Speaker 37 Serena Williams crip walking, or we don't like that he didn't do this, or we don't like that.

Speaker 45 It just shows that even in victory, because they've won, the right has now won everything.

Speaker 98 Even in victory, the temptation to be a victim is so great,

Speaker 68 so monumental.

Speaker 46 And the right will have to fight this or they'll get destroyed in the midterms and they'll lose and they'll lose the next election.

Speaker 27 They also have to figure out how to lower the prices of things and get interest rates lower.

Speaker 14 It's another conversation for later in the show.

Speaker 122 But if

Speaker 122 they do not

Speaker 114 figure out a way to stop getting angry about not who cares,

Speaker 113 in the same way that people on the left that say Kedrick Lamar's show is the greatest thing that's ever been, he's showing

Speaker 112 that

Speaker 133 America, he's making a statement and he's showing

Speaker 35 projecting your political

Speaker 31 realities on art is over.

Speaker 38 That's over.

Speaker 58 That's 2022.

Speaker 131 The idea that the person that you enjoy watching, listening to is some symbol of some greater thing you want to see happen is over.

Speaker 46 It's now embarrassing on both sides.

Speaker 124 it is a halftime show it was forgotten it was good i enjoyed it i think he's very talented but what he did ultimately means nothing it doesn't mean anything you people have put all of this emphasis on art as a um

Speaker 124 way to pull the levers of social change and a way to really now art can do certain things it can start conversations and whatever but what it is not and certainly should be obvious to all you people now

Speaker 7 you directed every cultural weapon you had for four years at Donald Trump and he's back in office enough stop it you're not a resistance Hollywood doesn't do a great job at resisting anything I'm not saying it should blindly go along with things either But you have to stop projecting all this stuff onto a halftime show.

Speaker 38 It's embarrassing on both sides.

Speaker 104 The right's like, this is Matt Gates goes, this is the response to Trump's historic gains with black men.

Speaker 35 No, no, no, it's a halftime show.

Speaker 56 It's a rapper performing at a halftime show.

Speaker 112 That's what it is.

Speaker 35 The whole Kendrick Lamar Drake beef, people have written all these long think pieces about what it's really about, what it really means, what the real significance is.

Speaker 45 If you look under the hood, peel the layers back, you're going to get, guys,

Speaker 46 it's embarrassing.

Speaker 14 It's embarrassing thinking about things this way.

Speaker 85 This is not politics.

Speaker 55 The thing you're doing is not, it's the opposite of it.

Speaker 36 You're retreating into this world

Speaker 106 that doesn't mean anything outside of X and a couple of dumbthink pieces and a couple of YouTube documentaries. It's not meaningful, lasting change.

Speaker 95 It's not change at all. It's nothing.

Speaker 45 It's less than nothing.

Speaker 52 So what you have have to do is you have to get over that shit

Speaker 35 and you have to stop.

Speaker 106 Otherwise, you're never going to be effective and you're never going to get any type of legitimacy back if you keep doing this.

Speaker 83 Now, friend of the program, Kanye West, speaking of the Super Bowl, and we only say friend of the program because

Speaker 114 he

Speaker 35 wasn't what he reached out to us a lot, but not a lot, I think, once. But

Speaker 112 he has been going off the chain.

Speaker 56 And even he's, this is how crazy, even he's getting boring.

Speaker 37 Even this is boring.

Speaker 51 Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're a Nazi.

Speaker 35 We get it. We get it.

Speaker 95 It becomes boring

Speaker 33 after a while.

Speaker 61 He was saying very interesting things at one point, years and years ago, about love.

Speaker 89 And then it all got very Hitlerian, you know.

Speaker 126 But he had a, he paid, and I think it was $8 million, something wild for a Super Bowl commercial.

Speaker 14 It's actually less.

Speaker 44 How much was it?

Speaker 143 I don't know exactly, but it was.

Speaker 97 Can I afford one?

Speaker 33 How much? He probably could.

Speaker 143 He only paid to have it shown in the LA area.

Speaker 50 Oh, interesting. So it's a little cheaper.

Speaker 57 Interesting.

Speaker 110 So only in the LA area, Kanye West, because I was at a Super Bowl party in Santa Monica.

Speaker 13 It was fine.

Speaker 18 It was nice.

Speaker 42 And I was there and lovely home, lovely home.

Speaker 132 And I was there and just LA people, you know.

Speaker 106 It's just what it is. But

Speaker 75 they lack intensity, people in Los Angeles.

Speaker 63 So if you're watching a game on the East Coast, there's a lot of intensity and passion.

Speaker 109 And L.A., everyone's kind of like, well,

Speaker 7 so it's just not fun to watch anything of any substance with any of these people because they just, they like, but they're very sweet and they're very nice.

Speaker 63 They ordered me coffee.

Speaker 142 I wanted coffee and they had a beautiful home.

Speaker 11 And I like it actually at this point in my life.

Speaker 63 I like it with no intensity.

Speaker 27 and kind of just kind of boring people that will get me what I want and let me sit in their backyard that I can't afford.

Speaker 50 That's what I like.

Speaker 16 So it actually works perfectly for me.

Speaker 42 But

Speaker 102 a few people were like, what the fuck?

Speaker 52 Like there was a visceral reaction to something.

Speaker 33 And I go, what, what happened?

Speaker 31 And they were like, oh, Kanye West had a Super Bowl commercial.

Speaker 48 The ad ran on three Fox-owned stations, including KTTV, Los Angeles, and may have been seen in a few more local markets.

Speaker 135 It's not the first time West had purchased a local spot during the Super Bowl, as one was seen on at least one small market, CBS affiliate in 2024.

Speaker 132 I love the idea of buying a local

Speaker 162 Super Bowl commercial.

Speaker 35 Can we watch it?

Speaker 95 Yeah, let's watch. This was Kanye.

Speaker 113 Now, this Yeezy.com, there was a link, and he was just selling a shirt with a swastika on.

Speaker 193 What's up, guys?

Speaker 193 I spent

Speaker 193 like all the money for the commercial

Speaker 193 on these new teeth.

Speaker 193 So,

Speaker 193 once again i had to shoot it on the iphone um

Speaker 193 um

Speaker 193 um

Speaker 159 go to easy.com so now when you went to easy.com there was just a shirt can you show the shirt or are we going to get in trouble

Speaker 52 can we show it there was a shirt and the shirt was a white shirt and it had a swastika on it, which is

Speaker 52 yeah.

Speaker 9 Oh, there's also some some fun kind of oh, are those swastika socks as well?

Speaker 111 What is oh, no, is that a different on the left is what his website looked like.

Speaker 50 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 35 And then on the right, it's that, yeah.

Speaker 112 Well, you know,

Speaker 91 number one, the shirt itself, I hate white shirts because they stain and they're not good.

Speaker 103 And, you know, the minute anything happens, a drip of coffee, the entire shirt's ruined.

Speaker 7 So that being said,

Speaker 46 that shirt, I think, the only option I see is white.

Speaker 33 I don't love that.

Speaker 33 Obviously, the swastika is offensive to people and will get you in a lot of trouble.

Speaker 85 But as a shirt, it's rather unimaginative.

Speaker 33 And again, I just don't like white.

Speaker 8 And it's a t-shirt.

Speaker 63 And there are a lot of places that don't want you to go in in a t-shirt, you know, some nicer restaurants and whatnot.

Speaker 33 Also, the swastika

Speaker 33 imagery on the front of the shirt, I think, is,

Speaker 68 you know,

Speaker 95 it's probably going to limit

Speaker 89 the

Speaker 103 types of people that you will meet

Speaker 21 out there.

Speaker 7 You know, I think a lot of people are just going to see that shirt and make a judgment about you.

Speaker 112 That's the thing about clothing.

Speaker 123 Some of it just sends sends a message, and I think that sends a message.

Speaker 41 Let's see, within an hour of the ad airing in Los Angeles and other markets, West had made the switch and users saw that just a $20 white t-shirts with a swastika on it.

Speaker 125 At that point, the on-air ad had already run and it was too late.

Speaker 192 I just can imagine like his conversation with the person designing the shirt.

Speaker 16 They're like, so that's all you want?

Speaker 35 He goes, yep.

Speaker 33 They're going, that's it.

Speaker 86 Yes.

Speaker 51 Do you want a gray?

Speaker 43 Do you want to do a gray?

Speaker 77 Do you want to do a camo? Do you want to do a

Speaker 44 black with a white swastika?

Speaker 35 Nope.

Speaker 33 White shirt, black swastika.

Speaker 35 Okay.

Speaker 97 Someone had to take that order.

Speaker 35 That's the way the world works.

Speaker 51 Someone had to go, okay.

Speaker 106 And nothing else. You're sure?

Speaker 67 You're sure about this.

Speaker 106 No other versions?

Speaker 35 Okay. No, no, no.

Speaker 42 I mean, hey, you're the boss.

Speaker 66 He's someone's boss.

Speaker 44 That's the thing about Connie Wayne.

Speaker 87 As crazy as he is right now, as wild as he is, he's flying all over the place.

Speaker 63 He is someone's boss.

Speaker 61 Like someone,

Speaker 95 he has a call and you have to get on that call.

Speaker 45 Like there's a Zoom with him and you got to get on.

Speaker 37 You got to put your headphone and you're on the Zoom and he's talking and he's like, and we're doing swastika shirts for the Super Bowl commercial.

Speaker 35 And you got to write it down.

Speaker 77 You got to go, doing the swastika. Okay.
And you just want a white, and it's a white with a black swastika.

Speaker 105 Okay.

Speaker 115 And then we make that switch about an hour.

Speaker 35 And okay, all right, yeah.

Speaker 113 You don't want anything else, you're sure.

Speaker 136 Do you want to do a pant?

Speaker 157 Do you want to do like a, do you want to do like a full sweatsuit with it?

Speaker 35 No, okay. No hats.
No hats? Okay. Okay.

Speaker 31 Well, we've also just found that there are some people that are willing to purchase a hat, maybe, because it's not as big of a commitment as a shirt.

Speaker 33 No, no, no.

Speaker 35 We'll just do the shirt. You're right.
We'll do the shirt.

Speaker 56 So really what it comes down to, you just, you, you, you have,

Speaker 35 you know,

Speaker 63 you know, he's doing the I love Hitler stuff and telling people to whip your Jews.

Speaker 88 I mean, he's really just doing, he's out there while it out.

Speaker 56 It's crazy.

Speaker 51 I don't know what, you know, I mean, listen.

Speaker 108 I said years ago this was going to be the beginning

Speaker 28 of

Speaker 46 this trend where mega celebrities were going to have public meltdowns on social media.

Speaker 111 And the reason that a lot of this is happening is because

Speaker 108 what used to prevent this was layers

Speaker 106 of people between a celebrity and their fans.

Speaker 66 Those people were managers, publicists, agents, lawyers, okay?

Speaker 24 Handlers, assistants,

Speaker 93 the Ray Donovan fixer character, right?

Speaker 102 Like all of these people were got between a celebrity and the public.

Speaker 35 Now,

Speaker 35 now,

Speaker 7 with the internet, there is nothing that stands between

Speaker 45 a celebrity and their fans, which can be a very big problem.

Speaker 33 That can be a very big.

Speaker 118 So no matter who wants to fly off the handle,

Speaker 122 they can do it now with such ease.

Speaker 56 And if you're an agent or a manager or publicist, whatever, you just sit back in a constant state of anxiety.

Speaker 106 You just sit back, and all those jobs are evaporating anyway.

Speaker 44 Sorry to people that may be listening, but a lot of those jobs, not all of them, but a lot of them are.

Speaker 102 And what then happens is these people sit back

Speaker 65 and they watch their clients have these meltdowns and they can't do anything about it.

Speaker 99 It's already out there.

Speaker 86 It's already out there.

Speaker 88 So anytime one of these, like Bieber seems to be

Speaker 27 in a bad way right now, I think Justin Bieber is an incredibly talented kid who's probably been through a lot and I feel bad.

Speaker 97 But he's walking around now and he doesn't look great,

Speaker 37 right?

Speaker 37 He seems to be having a problem.

Speaker 110 Now, he's not selling swastika shirts.

Speaker 10 I'm not saying he is.

Speaker 65 He's just walking around and he doesn't look,

Speaker 75 he seems like he's having an issue.

Speaker 128 You know, and

Speaker 27 it's difficult because the paparazzi just hound the poor guy and he's out there and he's having mental issues.

Speaker 57 You know?

Speaker 33 And by the way, go up to these, go up to these big clothes everyone's wearing now. Go up to this.

Speaker 95 Go up, just make that bigger.

Speaker 122 This doesn't,

Speaker 106 whatever this is, and I know this is the new fashion.

Speaker 128 Where everybody's wearing all these big things, matrix-like,

Speaker 45 but these very big coats and these big boots and these big.

Speaker 57 This is making people worry about you more.

Speaker 136 I'm not saying it should be form-fitting and skinny jeans or whatever, but this kind of strange, everybody's cloaked

Speaker 56 doesn't seem great. But Bieber seems like he's having issues.

Speaker 150 It doesn't mean that

Speaker 57 he is. I don't know.
I don't know him. I don't know people really that know him, but here, here,

Speaker 122 you know, because this, I'm telling you right now, this P.

Speaker 35 Diddy, I think wasn't good for these people

Speaker 102 that's why i think

Speaker 104 this p diddy it turns out was like not great for them for a lot of these younger people that p diddy took like an interest in and tried to mentor and stuff p diddy i think was um you know a net negative

Speaker 126 that's the surmise that I have.

Speaker 103 So this poor guy is walking around trying to deal with all of of this stuff.

Speaker 81 And he's,

Speaker 112 you know, so I'm hoping the kid's okay.

Speaker 48 He's been through a lot.

Speaker 7 He got famous very young and it's very, very difficult.

Speaker 60 Oh my God, trying to make progress with my finances has been a real problem.

Speaker 12 That's why I'm using QIIME.

Speaker 22 Chime understands that every dollar counts.

Speaker 52 Boston,

Speaker 35 Worcester,

Speaker 113 City Council voted to become a transgender sanctuary city.

Speaker 131 I don't know what this means, but

Speaker 35 we'll watch this.

Speaker 8 Is there one transgender person that can publicly appear without a blue wig?

Speaker 129 Like,

Speaker 57 there needs to be, and I'm sure there are, I'm sure there are,

Speaker 52 everything can't be Halloween.

Speaker 33 with this community all the time.

Speaker 128 It is not helping any case you're making.

Speaker 29 I'm being very honest here.

Speaker 106 There are gay people that are not always wearing assless chaps and stuff like that.

Speaker 46 Now, obviously, there are people wearing assless chaps, but usually that's like Saturday night.

Speaker 35 Like, if you show up to the town council or city hall or whatever, is there a way that you cannot dress,

Speaker 69 you know, like

Speaker 40 a cartoon?

Speaker 96 This doesn't help.

Speaker 23 I want to take you seriously, but showing up with a cartoonish blue wig and these wild eyebrows and the pearls,

Speaker 54 it just, it's not necessarily, it doesn't lend itself to seriousness.

Speaker 106 But let's see, maybe I'm wrong.

Speaker 197 I need the city to protect me because the federal government won't. And if you think you're afraid of Trump, you should see how afraid of Trump I am.

Speaker 198 Can you wrap up, please?

Speaker 197 Yes, I can.

Speaker 197 If you say that you're afraid of Trump and that's why you don't want

Speaker 197 the city to be a safe space for trans people, you better prepare for trans people to make this a very unsafe space.

Speaker 194 I'm shaking right now. I don't want to be here.

Speaker 199 I'm sorry, am I taking too long pleading for my life?

Speaker 200 You remembered how many children I have and how many and that two of them are trans.

Speaker 198 I speak as both the B and the T in the LGBT.

Speaker 197 I'm multiply disabled. I have Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, which is a connective tissue disorder that causes me immense physical pain.

Speaker 35 Same.

Speaker 142 And I told that to the woman at No Boo and that's why I needed 8 o'clock.

Speaker 19 And she said, we don't have anything till 10.

Speaker 35 Continue.

Speaker 197 I'm on the autism spectrum. Same.

Speaker 197 And I have narcolepsy, and I couldn't drink.

Speaker 94 All the time.

Speaker 35 I'm on this phone all night, sister.

Speaker 197 From my driver, that

Speaker 197 I was in drag, which is not an easy thing to do in drag.

Speaker 202 I do not want to be here.

Speaker 203 It's my day off.

Speaker 35 From what?

Speaker 33 From what is it your day off from?

Speaker 203 Be in your DMs. I do not want to be in your email inboxes.
I do not want my creativity writing diss tracks like Kendrick. I don't want to spend an hour applying glitter on my face

Speaker 203 so that you will hear and see me.

Speaker 203 I want you to listen to me.

Speaker 204 Let us remember.

Speaker 51 I love, by the way, by the way, I love the this guy.

Speaker 57 There is no way

Speaker 192 this, this is every guy who's made me a sandwich in Staten Island.

Speaker 192 This is every single guy who's made my favorite sandwich, which is fried eggplant, fresh mozzarella.

Speaker 12 Do not heat the mozzarelle.

Speaker 8 Heat the eggplant.

Speaker 78 It does need to be specified.

Speaker 74 Heat the fried eggplant, fresh mozzarella, roasted red peppers, and then a balsamic vinaigrette or an oil and vinegar is even better.

Speaker 25 You know, you don't need the vinaigrettes.

Speaker 19 They emulsify them too much, whatever.

Speaker 122 But this, and maybe a little basil, this guy is every guy that has made me that sandwich and done it perfectly.

Speaker 101 If it is not this guy, I leave the deli because I go, oh, it won't be good.

Speaker 46 And it never is.

Speaker 126 This guy

Speaker 120 is every person

Speaker 158 who's made me a sandwich and sat down.

Speaker 110 So I'm just curious now. And again, not to, you know, whatever, but I'm curious as to like, what exactly is this?

Speaker 144 Let's see what.

Speaker 120 And by the way, this person,

Speaker 158 the make, like, there's,

Speaker 32 there needs to be

Speaker 74 someone in this community who

Speaker 66 shows up and speaks rationally.

Speaker 72 And I'm sure that there are.

Speaker 78 This looks like Cirque d'Sole.

Speaker 110 This cannot look like Cirque d'Sole.

Speaker 121 You have to have somebody who goes, I'm not for kicking trans people out of the military.

Speaker 50 I'm not for a lot of that.

Speaker 25 I think trans people should be able to do whatever they want, you know, with with the, with the exception of like,

Speaker 35 you know, like teaching four-year-olds about being trans.

Speaker 99 I don't agree with that.

Speaker 17 And most of America doesn't, by the way, the Democratic Party has seemed to let this very infinitesimally statistically insignificant, very small base of activists define the whole issue.

Speaker 50 It's psychotic, but

Speaker 189 can't one person

Speaker 40 show up to the city council without,

Speaker 76 you know, and I don't know what

Speaker 35 also are these people, am I supposed to believe that this group is dying to join the military?

Speaker 14 But let's let's speak of, let's see what this guy has to say.

Speaker 146 I'm curious.

Speaker 204 Let us remember that the Nazis burned the books that the Nazis burned books on gender sciences first.

Speaker 204 Now the administration has villainized and marginalized migrant workers, trans, LGB, LG.

Speaker 204 LGBT people, and even special needs, denying life-saving and affirming care.

Speaker 199 Can you look at me and tell me how many of my friends need to die before you do anything?

Speaker 194 Please, right? Look at me.

Speaker 198 Okay, we're all done here.

Speaker 194 Fucking pathetic. We're all done.

Speaker 198 Come on.

Speaker 200 Of course, we need to continue celebrating Black History Month because, in spite of what's coming down from Washington, we all know that we all exist and we all need to be recognized for our existence.

Speaker 201 But be aware that you are a guest in my house when you come. And when you come, know that there are strong queer and trans people in my classroom who will collect you with the quickness.

Speaker 197 My name and drag is Dee Dee Delight.

Speaker 80 How many of these people, by the way, how many of these people

Speaker 77 just want attention?

Speaker 90 Like, and

Speaker 44 being very serious here, like, how many of these people woke up that day and were like, I just want something to do?

Speaker 118 Like, how many of these people, and I'm not saying there aren't

Speaker 33 legitimate concerns that trans people have, I get it, but

Speaker 19 the thing about me that I, you know, a lot of people in comedy always saw me as like this right-wing lunatic.

Speaker 26 Now I'm like really firmly kind of in the center because the culture has shifted and like I lean right on certain issues, but there are certain issues I'm, you know, more amenable to the left on.

Speaker 63 And what I've always warned my friends about on the left was that this extremism that they they were kind of just silently nodding at going along with was going to come back to bite them because it would swing the other way.

Speaker 78 This is what, this is the definition of the pendulum swing.

Speaker 46 And all of my friends, when we'd sit down at dinner in LA,

Speaker 52 I would go, this is ridiculous and that's ridiculous.

Speaker 23 And they would all agree with me for the most part.

Speaker 78 I'd go, all this DEI stuff is stupid and the quotas are stupid.

Speaker 95 And this idea that, you know,

Speaker 35 you know, 50% of the nominated pictures need to have a women director, all of that stuff, no one ever agreed with.

Speaker 65 And they just silently kind of placated the most extreme psychopaths out there.

Speaker 52 And all of the people that were pushing this stuff were doing so to legitimize usually their own careers.

Speaker 31 A lot of the people that were pushing this stuff were going and blackmailing essentially executives and going, I will leak.

Speaker 54 I know stories where people were like, I will leak that this is a racist and homophobic work environment unless you give me a show.

Speaker 83 And those people got shows.

Speaker 188 I genuinely know that.

Speaker 106 I know for a fact that

Speaker 27 there were people calling up the LA Times and going, why don't you call and ask for comment on the story that no one was even writing about this

Speaker 46 being a hostile work environment and then that person getting a show the next day, getting a sum of money the next day.

Speaker 132 It was a fraud.

Speaker 101 It was extortion.

Speaker 31 And by the way, Make your bag, whatever, but I know for a fact that what was happening in this town and many other towns was that people were going, if you don't give me this job with this budget and this, I'm going to say you're a racist, homophobe, transphobe, whatever

Speaker 96 collection of buzzwords I can use to get you fired, give me mine.

Speaker 87 And then all these museums and all these institutions and universities and corporations had these DEI officers.

Speaker 65 All of a sudden, there were these six-figure jobs for some of the most mediocre people in the world that now existing in these companies and threatening and trying to terrify the board and and and the the corporate structure and ceos

Speaker 35 and the ceos of these companies just said just give them what they want give them what they want

Speaker 102 let them do what they want because they want to

Speaker 124 continue to operate a company without being slandered in the press.

Speaker 35 So all of that, which I had a first, which I knew this was happening and I heard from people

Speaker 102 that if you spoke out, if you said anything, you were on the chopping block.

Speaker 32 You were going to get eliminated.

Speaker 33 All of my friends, when I would have dinner with them and we would sit down and we would talk or we would take a walk somewhere and they, because a lot of people talk to me, a lot of people don't admit to listening to this show.

Speaker 35 But this show is listened to by some of the top people in all of these industries.

Speaker 65 And sometimes I would speak to these people and they would be off the record.

Speaker 65 And I would talk to these people and they would say, what is going on right now is fucking insane.

Speaker 68 And they would describe a meeting where like all of these, I know an executive, I'm not going to say where, Comedy Central, Comedy Central.

Speaker 33 I'll just say it was, because that's where it was.

Speaker 102 Okay.

Speaker 46 And he offered an opinion on a lesbian,

Speaker 86 a white lesbian.

Speaker 106 He said, I just don't think think she's funny.

Speaker 29 By the way, there's a lot of people who don't think I'm funny. They're allowed to not think that.

Speaker 37 Okay.

Speaker 114 They're allowed to not think that.

Speaker 70 There's enough people that think I'm funny that I live a lovely life.

Speaker 145 Great. You don't?

Speaker 157 You don't like it.

Speaker 67 You don't like the show?

Speaker 43 Don't listen to show.

Speaker 123 It doesn't really matter.

Speaker 51 You know, it is what it is.

Speaker 112 You're allowed to not like things.

Speaker 35 Okay.

Speaker 42 i'm gonna tell you a story now that i i've never i may have told it maybe i've told it i don't even know i might have told it

Speaker 102 he said

Speaker 85 he goes this was at comedy central

Speaker 7 and this was an executive at comedy central and then a female comedian who is a lesbian

Speaker 110 Her name came up in the room and he didn't say anything damning.

Speaker 100 All he said was, I never found her that funny.

Speaker 7 Now, there's lots of lesbian female comedians, by the way. Some people like some of them and some people don't like others, just like there's a lot of gay male comedians.

Speaker 69 If you suggested a gay male comedian and my name came up and I know this for a fact, a lot of people in those rooms in LA have had strokes, like actual strokes, and they had to be taken out.

Speaker 112 So

Speaker 67 it's fine.

Speaker 37 You're allowed to have opinions, right?

Speaker 35 This guy was court-martialed after he said, she never did it for me.

Speaker 46 She never found me that funny.

Speaker 51 He didn't say, don't give her a deal.

Speaker 98 He didn't say, I think she's the worst thing ever.

Speaker 7 He said, it's not, not for me.

Speaker 112 Never thought it was that great.

Speaker 69 He was taken outside by several people, several executives.

Speaker 52 He brought into a room and told, you cannot, as a straight white man, offer that kind of opinion.

Speaker 96 He said, you hired me.

Speaker 160 to give an opinion.

Speaker 103 I'm an executive at this, let's be honest, fake company, Comedy Central.

Speaker 96 And he goes, you hired me to give an opinion.

Speaker 32 It's literally my job to give an opinion when the name of a comedian comes up.

Speaker 101 And everybody went, well, you can't, you're a straight white guy.

Speaker 135 You have to understand

Speaker 131 you're in this position of power.

Speaker 7 He goes, right, but you hired me to be in that position of power.

Speaker 83 That's the thing.

Speaker 77 I'm the suit.

Speaker 33 I sit in the boardroom.

Speaker 103 I give the opinion.

Speaker 35 Is it right? Is it wrong?

Speaker 33 Who knows?

Speaker 65 But that's my literal job.

Speaker 106 And they said to him, well, you can't do it.

Speaker 103 You can't do that.

Speaker 128 And then he ended up leaving the company a few months later because he said, I cannot work in an environment where I cannot give an opinion freely on a comedian of color or a gay comedian or a trans comedian.

Speaker 65 I'm only allowed to critique straight white men.

Speaker 45 That seems crazy.

Speaker 37 Right. And me.

Speaker 106 I think you're allowed to, I think all of those companies were like, you're not allowed, you're to say only negative things about straight white men and Tim Dylan.

Speaker 7 If you have a negative thing to say about a gay person, it's to be said about Tim Dillon, and that's it.

Speaker 68 But so this was going on all over the place.

Speaker 102 And this is what DEI was.

Speaker 61 People, they don't understand what it is.

Speaker 51 It doesn't mean every minority that has a job is DEI.

Speaker 122 It doesn't mean that

Speaker 61 everybody that's not white is incompetent.

Speaker 98 It's far from the truth.

Speaker 37 That's not true.

Speaker 33 And yes, is the right going overboard, criticize everything DEI?

Speaker 136 Sure.

Speaker 42 But

Speaker 33 what it was, and I just use that small example of a story that I personally was told, and I know that person.

Speaker 35 It's a real story.

Speaker 101 I use that example because that's what DEI was.

Speaker 132 What DEI was, was reordering

Speaker 46 all of these institutions and saying, you're not allowed to talk about this.

Speaker 112 You're not allowed to say that.

Speaker 93 You can only have an opinion on this.

Speaker 33 We have to have a quota which includes this.

Speaker 32 So if you don't like something, you better start to like it because we're coming after your job if you do not fall in line.

Speaker 31 DEI could have also been called fall in line.

Speaker 40 That's what it was.

Speaker 45 So

Speaker 113 you had that, that created resentment, it created anger.

Speaker 119 It was basically a reordering

Speaker 89 of

Speaker 78 these institutions' priorities

Speaker 7 and they were not

Speaker 77 concerned at all

Speaker 131 with

Speaker 135 quality and they were not not concerned with competence

Speaker 67 chiefly.

Speaker 8 Those were not their chief concerns.

Speaker 95 Their chief concerns were how many people of X group are being represented in this thing.

Speaker 69 Okay, and I know that from my vantage point.

Speaker 32 I'm in the entertainment business, and

Speaker 33 even in the parts of the business I'm really not in, people talk to me and they tell me.

Speaker 136 So, what you did

Speaker 67 with that

Speaker 107 was create a very unsustainable, and people have talked about this before,

Speaker 93 unsustainable way to govern any institution because everybody starts fighting.

Speaker 77 Who's been more oppressed?

Speaker 104 Blacks, Jews, Jewish blacks, Muslims,

Speaker 48 Hispanics, the disabled, gay people, trans people, trans Muslim, Hispanic, disabled.

Speaker 93 Like it becomes a war

Speaker 17 and it's not sustainable.

Speaker 120 So whatever, whatever, whatever ethos you're using here to govern these institutions, Hollywood used to be a place, okay,

Speaker 112 that was

Speaker 96 run pretty much by sociopaths who took big risks,

Speaker 54 where if a movie succeeded, their entire life was made.

Speaker 46 And if it failed, in many cases, their entire life was obliterated.

Speaker 35 Okay.

Speaker 80 It was run by gamblers and risk takers, kind of the cowboy Western mentality.

Speaker 51 It then was turned over to these like collegiate,

Speaker 25 you know,

Speaker 106 pseudo-intellectual types that came out of universities in America that were indoctrinated into this belief system of using art as a tool for cultural change.

Speaker 78 Now, that's always been going on to some degree, but over the last four years, it was really intense and somewhat silly.

Speaker 30 And there is a pendulum swing now.

Speaker 104 There is a pushback.

Speaker 37 A lot of writers are out of work.

Speaker 89 A lot of people are suffering.

Speaker 35 A lot of people that were led into a writer's strike by psychopaths, in my opinion, who were demanding that

Speaker 27 some of the people

Speaker 33 in this town who had just had a job

Speaker 40 by sheer luck get paid more for it.

Speaker 114 You know, my friend works at a company, he goes, He goes, I make my hundred and something grand.

Speaker 157 He goes, 120 grand.

Speaker 11 He goes, I don't speak up.

Speaker 76 They don't really know I'm there.

Speaker 110 I don't do too much work.

Speaker 9 I don't get on anyone's nerves.

Speaker 31 I'm not trying to get ahead. And I don't do too little work where I'm on the chopping block.

Speaker 27 He goes, I just float around.

Speaker 9 Most people probably don't even know I'm here.

Speaker 19 This was not, this is not an entertainment company. It's another company.

Speaker 35 There were a lot of people in this town that were kind of just getting by and making good money doing kind of bullshit and then they tried to demand more and they got a little greedy and I'm not saying some of them weren't abused but a lot of them were getting greedy and now they have nothing and that's unfortunate because people got a little greedy and while they all sat there for a year the internet continued to do what the internet does.

Speaker 9 It multiplies and multiplies and multiplies.

Speaker 103 Let's finish up here with Dee Dee.

Speaker 197 Drag is Dewey Cosgrove Atiensa.

Speaker 203 Laddie LaRouge, He Ve in Drag District 3.

Speaker 202 My legal name is Olivia D'Ambrosio. My public name is Livy Scanlon.
My wife and I own a home in the Canal District.

Speaker 198 I speak as someone who is always misgendered like all the time.

Speaker 198 People refer to me as sir when I prefer to be referred to as ma'am. ma'am.

Speaker 198 I speak as someone who is afraid to use public toilets.

Speaker 66 This is, by the way, and

Speaker 8 whatever this is,

Speaker 9 where a guy who's not even attempting to look like a woman is enraged that people are thinking he's a won't, like, I don't know.

Speaker 50 I don't know what's happening anymore, but here's what I will say.

Speaker 37 I don't, I'm watching closely on the Musk stuff.

Speaker 9 I am.

Speaker 106 I'm, I'm, uh, I don't, I'm not someone who's just going to support tech people no matter what.

Speaker 43 I don't.

Speaker 90 I don't. I don't know him well enough.

Speaker 124 I don't think he's Satan incarnate.

Speaker 90 I don't know.

Speaker 107 I'm very skeptical of the designs of some of these tech people.

Speaker 33 I am. And I don't know if

Speaker 33 they're concerned about America.

Speaker 9 I've said that a million times.

Speaker 112 But I'm also

Speaker 43 withholding judgment here on.

Speaker 118 the rollout of some of this stuff because I'm also not going to be, I'm not going to, I'm not in the camp of people that believe that

Speaker 54 all of this USAID stuff is used for good purpose and by the way go speak to people in these countries about some of this aid that we're giving and I'm not saying we're not giving them aid but this idea that what we're just going around helping people

Speaker 94 that's all we're doing is going around

Speaker 63 helping people this is what Trump Said he was going to do when he got elected.

Speaker 11 He said he was going to

Speaker 24 purge.

Speaker 17 Now, do people obviously want this more than they want cheap eggs?

Speaker 33 Probably not.

Speaker 63 And that might be reflected in the midterms.

Speaker 43 But this was what not only Trump, but every Republican wants to purge government of employees and shrink the government and eliminate federal spending in federal ways.

Speaker 63 This is actually what Republicans talked about years ago.

Speaker 41 before the party became more of a big government party and it focused itself on cultural issues or it focused itself on war.

Speaker 97 Before it was about terrorism and war, the Republican Party was always about this stuff.

Speaker 88 It was always about like this agency's not, um,

Speaker 17 and I don't think Musk is going to take Social Security and try to get rid of it.

Speaker 35 You know, again, the Democrats will win all of the seats, right?

Speaker 71 Um,

Speaker 10 I think Trump has to be careful.

Speaker 66 I think he knows that.

Speaker 41 I think you see it in his face.

Speaker 192 I think he knows that.

Speaker 66 It's going to be interesting to watch this play out, you know, for sure.

Speaker 93 And I know there's probably good people out there that have lost money.

Speaker 90 And I know,

Speaker 112 is the cigarette-smoking girl from Abu Ghraib still getting her pension?

Speaker 90 Get Lindy England up.

Speaker 95 If I find out, because this is where I draw the line, okay?

Speaker 144 Hit image.

Speaker 100 Get that picture up where she's leashed all those people.

Speaker 95 If I find out

Speaker 37 that Lindy England

Speaker 128 is not collecting a pension, I'm going to lose my mind.

Speaker 134 I am telling you right now, get her up.

Speaker 103 Is she still getting her pension?

Speaker 112 I'm telling you right now, I hope to God she's getting her pension.

Speaker 33 Cigarette smoking leash girl from Abu Ghraib.

Speaker 134 Because if these budget cuts are affecting her, I'm going to lose my mind.

Speaker 33 Cigarette smoking leash girl from Abu Ghraib.

Speaker 130 I'm telling you.

Speaker 95 I hope she's still doing good.

Speaker 103 I hope CIA contractor cigarette smoking leash girl, there she is,

Speaker 87 is still receiving her pension.

Speaker 106 That's my main concern.

Speaker 102 And it should be for all Americans.

Speaker 61 For all Americans, the main concern is, is she receiving her pension?

Speaker 33 Is she still on the government dole?

Speaker 118 Are people who kidnap people in the middle of the night still getting their money?

Speaker 128 I need to know that as an American citizen.

Speaker 35 TimNillonComedy.com for all your comedic needs.

Speaker 106 We'll see you on Patreon.

Speaker 140 We'll see you next week.

Speaker 124 We're in Canada.

Speaker 106 This will be out, but there might be some tickets left for Vancouver.

Speaker 7 We'll be in Edmonton Thursday.

Speaker 162 Is Vancouver Friday or Saturday?

Speaker 123 We're in Edmonton.

Speaker 113 The show's already passed.

Speaker 7 Can't do anything about that.

Speaker 43 And then

Speaker 106 there might be, there's some tickets probably on the late show in Vancouver.

Speaker 51 When is that?

Speaker 42 Saturday?

Speaker 35 Friday. Friday.

Speaker 123 Friday. Well, you missed that too.

Speaker 35 Calgary.

Speaker 95 There's some late, late, late show tickets at Calgary.

Speaker 68 And then Winnipeg, there's only a few left.

Speaker 33 But,

Speaker 93 you know, that's our little Canadian swing.

Speaker 65 And then I will be

Speaker 144 back here watching all of this stuff unfold with you

Speaker 105 as well, keeping an eye on these things.

Speaker 17 I don't know which way this is going to go.

Speaker 28 That seems,

Speaker 115 you know, it's interesting that Trump said about Vance.

Speaker 53 He goes, he's not my successor.

Speaker 41 It remains to be seen whether Vance is my successor or not.

Speaker 10 And,

Speaker 112 you know, so

Speaker 113 what Trump is basically saying is I demand loyalty for the next four years.

Speaker 27 I will not.

Speaker 64 It really, it's interesting to watch to see what

Speaker 113 Trump is basically saying there to Vance.

Speaker 46 He's basically saying, listen,

Speaker 69 we're not done yet.

Speaker 90 I don't know,

Speaker 97 you know, it's kind of a, I don't know if it's a, I wouldn't call it quite a shot that he's firing at Vance, but it's interesting

Speaker 52 to say, listen, we just started.

Speaker 46 We've done some work here.

Speaker 77 I don't know

Speaker 41 if this guy's my successor or not.

Speaker 92 So this will all be very interesting to watch.

Speaker 26 And if the Democratic Party has any designs on retaking power, I would certainly try to get someone out there in front without a blue wig.
