419 - Post-Thanksgiving Extravaganza

Speaker 1 At Arizona State University, we've made online education better, smarter, and more personalized so you can go further in your aspiring field.

Speaker 2 I decided to pursue medicine once I realized that ASU did have the online program for biological sciences. You're still required to learn the same curriculum.

Speaker 2 You're still being tested on the same content that anyone would be tested on in person. The comprehensiveness of the program prepared me so well for medical school.

Speaker 1 Explore over 350 plus programs at ASUonline.asu.edu.

Speaker 3 Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Tim Dylan Show post-Thanksgiving extravaganza.

Speaker 3 I hope you and your family

Speaker 3 had a nice time.

Speaker 3 I do.

Speaker 3 I do. We kid around a lot on this show, and we talk about some very dark things.

Speaker 3 But I hope you and your family had a good time at Thanksgiving.

Speaker 3 Because you know what most families are doing right now instead of having Thanksgiving? And

Speaker 3 I'm actually a little disturbed by this. Most families

Speaker 3 are doing away with the turkey and they're just having sex with each other. Most families in this country are having sex with each other.
Is that right? Is that nice? I don't think it is.

Speaker 3 Most families are meeting up to have an orgy. instead of Thanksgiving dinner where you would have a sweet potato, something like that.
They're meeting up to have sex in the living room for hours.

Speaker 3 For hours with each other.

Speaker 3 That's incest. It's pedophilia.
There's other philias.

Speaker 3 So I'm just saying to those of you who are celebrating the old-fashioned way

Speaker 3 by eating a meal with your family and not fucking them in the living room

Speaker 3 And it's not just, oh, it's a different lifestyle. Don't judge our holiday tradition.
That's what one of my friends said. I said, what do you and your family do? He goes, we all have sex.

Speaker 3 I go, that's sick. He goes, don't judge our holiday tradition.

Speaker 3 Can you believe that? He said that, don't judge our holiday tradition. I like having sex with my own mother on Thanksgiving.
In front of my brother, we take turns on our mother.

Speaker 3 All right, anyway, let's talk about tariffs.

Speaker 3 By the way, I excused myself for my own Thanksgiving. I left.

Speaker 3 And I'm not going to do a whole thing where I go into it, but I'm just going to give you the cliff notes because you do listen to the program and they were insulting you.

Speaker 3 They actually attacked the listeners of this show.

Speaker 3 And listen, here's the thing. I understand people are upset about the outcome of the election.
That is complete. You are within your rights to be upset.

Speaker 3 You are within your rights to be worried or nervous or apprehensive about what's coming down the pike. There are things that I may not agree with.
I don't agree with anybody all the time.

Speaker 3 So I'm just handling things like an adult. I'm an adult.

Speaker 3 And I don't think that

Speaker 3 Donald Trump is going to destroy the country. But if he does, I will move to Tuscany.
I've said that before. I've said I'll go to Tuscany.
People think they corner me. They're like, what?

Speaker 3 If he ruins the whole country? I go, I already want to go to Tuscany, even if it's fine. I kind of am getting excited about Tuscany.

Speaker 3 Have you gone on Instagram and seen Tuscany where you have the pool and it's the Green Hills?

Speaker 3 Now, so the point is,

Speaker 3 my father's wife, they're very liberal people.

Speaker 3 And I don't mean very liberal, like liberal. I mean like

Speaker 3 they have dogs named Freddie, Maya, and Ruth, and the dogs are named after Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Maya Angelou, and Frederick Frederick Douglass, the freed slave.

Speaker 3 My father chases a Bichon around the house named after Frederick Douglass, the slave.

Speaker 3 And him and his wife think it's okay. Okay?

Speaker 3 That's the cliff notes on who we're dealing with, just in case you're accusing me of being

Speaker 3 from Maya, Maya Angelou, who's a black woman, person, poet, who they've named a shihhzu after. They're sick.

Speaker 3 I'm sorry, it's a disease. Political extremism is a disease.
I have to call it out if it's in my own family. And I love them.

Speaker 3 But it's a disease.

Speaker 3 If I was sitting around Thanksgiving and everybody had a burqa on, I'd go, what's going on here? I'd call that out.

Speaker 3 Ditto if everyone was in the clan or whatever. I'm just saying you're naming the dog.
Wasn't Frederick Douglass the wasn't he the escape slave? That's right.

Speaker 3 You don't know. We have a substitute producer whom I adore, but you have no idea if that was the escape slave.
And I think it was, right? Isn't it?

Speaker 3 I think he was the first black man in the White House. I think that's true.

Speaker 3 But

Speaker 3 am I calling him a slave for no reason? Because that's where I'm going to get into trouble.

Speaker 3 Didn't he, he was a slave. He started out.

Speaker 3 Why did my father and his wife get him up on Wikipedia now, please? This is a show that people are watching with their families.

Speaker 3 Frederick Douglass,

Speaker 3 he was an abolitionist.

Speaker 3 Let's see what was going on here. Yes, he escaped from slavery.
I know what I'm doing. Why do I second guess myself and waste precious time?

Speaker 3 My father and his wife have a dog named after this escaped slave.

Speaker 3 Is that right? Is that okay?

Speaker 3 Is that not sick?

Speaker 3 There's a level of political that's you get sick and all they talk about about is these dogs.

Speaker 3 All boomers care about right now is dogs. Have you noticed this? Boomers could not be bothered with their children.
They couldn't be bothered with their children.

Speaker 3 Any boomer ever, if you ask them about their kids, oh.

Speaker 3 I gotta cart them off to karate and then dance and then swim practice, football. It never ends.
When do I have time to sit in the house and drink? They never cared at all for their children.

Speaker 3 But I think as they're nearing, thankfully the grave, as they're nearing the grave, they realize they should care for something on this earth besides themself.

Speaker 3 And it is a dog. This is anyone who has a boomer parent kind of knows this.
And it's not that we don't love them, by the way. This is just we've accepted.
We all accept

Speaker 3 as the boomers are are careening towards the cliff

Speaker 3 and their own mortality, which by the way, I will say from meeting them at my mother's funeral, they are taking it in stride. Like millennials are terrified

Speaker 3 up googling rare diseases. How does it end? Will I have done enough? Zoomers are just so, everything's death with them.
I mean, the school shootings, they're mired in death. They're nihilistic.

Speaker 3 It's unaffected. I mean, the guy next to them is foaming at the mouth on fentanyl and math.
They're really bleak, the Zoomers.

Speaker 3 But the boomers are very interesting because they really are marching towards death in kind of a very calm and peaceful way.

Speaker 3 They came, they saw, they conquered. They came to a planet and destroyed it.
And now they're ready to leave. And

Speaker 3 so, but before they leave, they want to love one thing outside of themselves. And it is dogs.

Speaker 3 Every older boomer I know has gotten a new dog and keeps calling their child to tell them about the dog, how amazing the dog is, how life-changing it's been to have a dog. Oh, we're at the dog beach.

Speaker 3 We love the dog. You got to see the way this dog relates to the other dog.

Speaker 3 These are people who They're more concerned when their dog starts choking than they were when their kid was hit by a car. This is true.

Speaker 3 And so they have these dogs. They bring everywhere.
They bring, when they go somewhere, they bring dogs. They set up cages.
They bring three dogs. They live an hour from me.

Speaker 3 They get dog cages and dogs.

Speaker 3 Dogs are running around the house. They're shitting in a house.
In a house. The dogs that I don't have and don't want and don't care about.
Little shih tzu, bijan, not cool.

Speaker 3 It's not like huskies in St. Bernard.
It's not an Irish setter. What's their little pieces of shit, little rats.
Little rats named after escaped slaves

Speaker 3 okay

Speaker 3 they come over 48 hours early they come over on Wednesday for Thanksgiving Wednesday afternoon to do cooking his wife wants to do cooking she doesn't do any cooking she brings over food and heats it up there's not there's no cooking I get depressed with what's going on now with the holidays don't offer to cook if you're not cooking sorry just don't do it I'll have it catered something.

Speaker 3 Don't offer to cook if you're not cooking. It's rude.
It's disrespectful. It's wrong.
And a lot of people are bothered by it. Don't go to the grocery store and get a bunch of shit and heat it up.

Speaker 3 I could do that. Don't do that.
Don't do that. It's wrong.
It's disrespectful.

Speaker 3 My family, we come from a great tradition of great restaurants. And my uncle has been so kind to us and he's been so good to us because he's in the restaurant business.

Speaker 3 And my grandmother was an amazing cook and would cook.

Speaker 3 She would slave over the, she'd Frederick Douglass over the stove for hours, mashing potatoes and chopping celery and carrots and making homemade stuffing.

Speaker 3 So if you're going to cook, that's kind of what I expect, not getting a bunch of stuff and heating it up. Sorry, not sorry.
Sorry, not sorry. Sorry, not sorry.
Okay.

Speaker 3 Love and light. Again, love and light.
Love and light. Peace, love, light, holiday spirit.
No, no problems. Just you show up with food in a crate.
that you heat up. It's disgusting.

Speaker 3 And then you complain that you're cooking. It's like, this is how psychotic these people are.
They're psychopaths. They're psychopaths.
And again, not negative, but

Speaker 3 if you're claiming that you're cooking and you're not cooking and you're talking that you're cooking, you're a psychopath.

Speaker 3 It would be like if I was talking about working out all day, if I came in and I just got in from a run.

Speaker 3 Somebody would call that out and go, but

Speaker 3 when were you running? No one saw this.

Speaker 3 And it would be like if everyone in the house was like, good for you running. What route you take? Where'd you go? You go up 27, you make a left.

Speaker 3 Instead of someone going, what running have you done in your life?

Speaker 3 But she's talking about cooking like it's happening. This is what's bothering me.
This is what's bothering me. Can I be honest? Yes or yes? She's talking about cooking like it's happening.

Speaker 3 My father is talking to his slave dog. who he's chasing around the backyard uh with the maya angelou and the ruth beta ginsburg and

Speaker 3 the Underground Railroad of the Canine Underground Railroad that they got running through the backyard, my house. And that happened.
Now,

Speaker 3 so, which they had to come to. I would have gone to theirs, but they had to come to mine.
They love it, love it, love. They want to come to my house.
I didn't want them. I didn't want them.

Speaker 3 Don't want them. Love them.
Love them, but no one needs house guests. I'm 39, gonna be 40 soon.
Nobody wants house guests. Nobody wants it.

Speaker 3 I'm telling you right now, when someone says, why don't you come over? They don't mean it. If they're 20, they mean it.
They don't mean it at 40. They don't want you there.
They do not want you there.

Speaker 3 They want you there for a dinner, not a sleepover. This is not a frat party.
Nobody's roofing anybody, okay? This is not a bring out the Narcan and let's have fun.

Speaker 3 This is come over for dinner and then get to step in. Remember the great show, Martin with Martin Lawrence? He had some issues with Tisha Campbell, but you know, it doesn't matter.

Speaker 3 He had a great show and he used to throw everyone out of his house, and I understand and respect that.

Speaker 3 So my father's out there with his slave dog. And then a wife, who's a lovely lady, but she keeps talking about cooking.
I'm cooking all day.

Speaker 3 So hard to cook. She has crates from the market.

Speaker 3 My cousin and her went to the market and they got all this food that she's heating up in an oven.

Speaker 3 They bought a turkey. It's all fake.
The stuffing is pepperidge farm, it's fake. This is the way people eat in trailer parks.

Speaker 3 This is the way people eat in trailer. And by the way, if you're in a trailer park, God bless you.

Speaker 3 I'm not going at you because we're going to get to elitism shortly. And I'm not that guy.

Speaker 3 I love trailer parks.

Speaker 3 My point is this. This is the way people eat in a trailer park.
People in trailer parks are agreeing with me. Pepperidge farm stuffing.
That ain't it.

Speaker 3 That ain't it. You ate better than that yesterday and you were with a bunch of people that weren't even white.
Right? Correct.

Speaker 3 So she brings over like, you know, this is a lady who, God bless her, but this is a woman who one time for my birthday served me Tostito scoops. Me and my friend came over to her house.

Speaker 3 Remember to Tostito scoop? Food can be a thing to show love to someone, but it's also a way to spit on them. It's a way to spit on someone and show them that you hate them.

Speaker 3 Or you're jealous of them or whatever. I don't know.
You hate them or whatever. I don't know what the problem is.
I can guess.

Speaker 3 I should have been in the street dead. They wanted me in the street on junk.
And I'm in the Hamptons. They don't love that.
They'd rather me be dead. They'd want me.

Speaker 3 They wish every Thanksgiving they went to a grave with me in it. Okay? That's what they want.
No offense. Now,

Speaker 3 the,

Speaker 3 what was I talking about? What was I saying? I was making a point about, was it a little pudding? A scoop. Tostito scoops.
Yeah, the scoop.

Speaker 3 I'm going to say a sticky toffee pudding later, but that's later.

Speaker 3 The Tostito scoops.

Speaker 3 So my birthday one year, when I wasn't doing well, by the way, when they called me once a year, when I wasn't doing well, they had me over for my birthday because they probably by accident found out it was my my birthday.

Speaker 3 And they and I came over and they had to, and I went with Ray Comp and me and Ray Comp went to the house and we were stunned. We were stunned.
She served Tostito scoops, scoops,

Speaker 3 and

Speaker 3 the scoop, and then with like some loose beef and like

Speaker 3 heated up cheese, but it was crazy bad. Me and my friend Melanie went once.
She had like ham sandwich, but like cold.

Speaker 3 Me and you went recently.

Speaker 3 Me and you went recently and it was cold chicken cutlets that were in the refrigerator that she cubed up like they were going to be served to Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the dog. Everything was freezing.

Speaker 3 It is not, if you cannot cook, stop cooking. Don't cook.
We're not here to delude you. I don't, I don't, I'm not, I'm not out there talking about my flair.
with

Speaker 3 jiu-jitsu, that I'm great at it. Well, my friends are.
A lot of my friends are good at it, but I'm not doing that. You know why? I don't do jiu-jitsu.
I'm not good at it.

Speaker 3 So I don't say I'm good at it. I'm not lying.
And I don't want it to be accepted.

Speaker 3 When someone says something that's blatantly untrue, I don't have the emotional investment in like propping up your lies and your bullshit.

Speaker 3 So,

Speaker 3 but here's the problem. I'm not going to be insulted in my own home.
I'm not going to have the audience of the show insulted. And I'm not going to have my friends insulted.

Speaker 3 Okay?

Speaker 3 I don't care that you're unhappy with the election. That's not my fault.
I told you I'd put you in a good cell. I told you I'd get you a good cell and a hearing.

Speaker 3 I'll give you a hearing, but I'm not making promises.

Speaker 3 Her parents come in. These are very, very liberal people, which I think is great.

Speaker 3 I have so many friends. of all different political persuasions.
I'm friends with everyone. Communists, capitalists, libertarians, radical Jews, Nazis, black Israelites, all my friends.

Speaker 3 It's America. It's 2025.
We have a communal table where everyone's welcome. That's what I want, a Thanksgiving of all the types.

Speaker 3 She's there, daughter's there, daughter's environmental lawyer. They don't talk, these people either.
They don't say anything. They just sit silently.

Speaker 3 And then my dad will say something, and then her daughter will be like, you like rfk my dad's i like some of the things he says so it's that energy it's that energy in my house

Speaker 3 it's my home

Speaker 3 it's my home don't insult rfk in my home

Speaker 3 he's my friend

Speaker 3 it's true

Speaker 3 And you're actually allied with RFK because you made a bunch of food no one could eat.

Speaker 3 It was the healthiest Thanksgiving I've ever had.

Speaker 3 So the parents, her parents come in and they start in.

Speaker 3 First of all,

Speaker 3 I make a plate. I refuse to eat the food.
I sit down at the table. It's unedible.
It's cold and it's unedible. I won't do it.
Life is too short. I'm 39.

Speaker 3 People I know are going through horrible things. Some of them are not.
I don't really know anyone going through a horrible thing. I'm just my point.

Speaker 3 I don't even know why I'm saying that, but the point is this.

Speaker 3 My point is that there are people out there going through all kinds of things. Life is too short for this bullshit.
It's too short.

Speaker 3 If your family cannot accept you, you have to just find a way to just

Speaker 3 live and let live. And not everybody has to love everybody all the time.
And not everybody has to be.

Speaker 3 uh uh uh in everyone's face and it's not negative there's no there's no baggage with it but if you cannot sit through a dinner without going off on the election and losing your mind, then I can't have you at the home.

Speaker 3 I'm sorry. It's a, it's a, it's rational.

Speaker 3 You have to behave like a rational adult. And I feel for these people on the left, man, because they don't understand why they lost.
They still don't get it.

Speaker 3 It's because the only thing you people have left is a smug sense of superiority. And most people would rather die than agree with you.

Speaker 3 They'd rather give up their rights and walk into the fire than spend five minutes with you because you cunts are so smug and superior and it's based in nothing.

Speaker 3 It's based in the fact that you went to a fucking four-year college and someone stamped a de-fucking degree on a piece of paper so you can sit at a big Fortune 500 firm and lecture everybody else about trannies.

Speaker 3 Shut up. It's Thanksgiving.
Cook the food, it's called.

Speaker 3 I don't give a shit. I'm sick of this crap.
I'm a literal faggot. Do you understand? Suck, cock, faggot.
I don't care about this queer model. You white chicks are queer.
It's fake. It's all fake.

Speaker 3 Chapel Rhodes probably not a lesbot.

Speaker 3 That kid in heart warmer, heart, whatever it is on Netflix, he ain't a faggot either. The kid conduct, they lie.
They're lying about everything. It's fine.

Speaker 3 It's fine. I would lie to keep lying.
The public doesn't deserve honesty, but don't come and lecture me.

Speaker 3 Tell me you're queer and you found out five minutes ago that you're queer and you're dating a guy and now you know everything about the struggle or whatever the hell you think you're in, whatever movie you think you're the lead character in.

Speaker 3 It bothers everybody, okay?

Speaker 3 If you can't make it through a dinner without misbehaving like a dog, you must go. You have to eat outside.
That's all. This is advice.
Life is too short.

Speaker 3 If people are going to insult you and your friends and everybody else, and they're going to be miserable and they're going to sit there and be doom and gloom and misery and fill your life with misery because they're miserable and they're upset.

Speaker 3 And they want to. So here's what, how are you going to tell you what happened? I wasn't going to even discuss it.
I wasn't going to discuss it, but I have to discuss it.

Speaker 3 I have to discuss it because this is not me and my life. This is you and your life and everyone's life, by the way, over the next few months.
This is not rare.

Speaker 3 This will not be rare and it will not be new. You will experience this and it's okay.

Speaker 3 Okay? It's okay.

Speaker 3 I'm telling you how to deal with this. Get in your Bentley and go to the diner.
I'm telling you right now.

Speaker 3 I'm sitting there at my table eating cold food

Speaker 3 that was not cooked. It was heated up, but not heated up.
It was out on the table at 10.30 a.m.

Speaker 3 It was out at the table at 10.30 in the morning. And then the turkey was finished at five.
I was invited to the Kennedy house. I didn't go.

Speaker 3 I didn't go to have Thanksgiving with Bobby and Cheryl so that I could sit here with these liberals and their cold food and their scowls and their dogs named after slaves.

Speaker 3 How dare they? That's not appropriate. That's not okay.
That's not allowed. Do you think black people would feel good if they said, meet my dog?

Speaker 3 It's named after Frederick Douglass, and the other one's named after Maya Angelou? Is that all right? Is that allowed? It's a disease. You people have a disease.

Speaker 3 We're sitting at the table.

Speaker 3 I've made a plate and I cannot eat it because it's cold and the food is disgusting. My cousin's eating it.
God love her. God bless her.
But she also says this is disgusting food.

Speaker 3 But she's trying to put on weight.

Speaker 3 So we're sitting at the table and this woman's parents are there and they start going, so who listens to your podcast?

Speaker 3 What's the demographics? Do they have college degrees? Are they college educated? The people that listen to your pod go, yeah, a lot of them are.

Speaker 3 I said, I don't really give a fuck.

Speaker 3 I, you know, and instead of like flying off to Hamlet and going, you know, they paid for the house you're sitting in right now, the people that listen to the show and that come see me do stand-up and all this shit.

Speaker 3 But I knew where they were going. This is all they have left, by the way.
All they have left is this.

Speaker 3 By the way, once all of these people are thrown in the street, burned like the witches they are, the Democrats can get new people and they can be a viable party again.

Speaker 3 And I think we need a two-party system, but you have to burn the witches. You have to burn the witches.

Speaker 3 One of the people there, this woman's daughter said to me, she goes, do you spend a lot of time in the Hamptons during the winter? I said, no. She goes, why?

Speaker 3 I said, because it's cold and dark and there's nobody around and nothing's open. She goes, well, I would like that.
I go, oh, good, but that's the life of a witch.

Speaker 3 That's the way a witch lives in the woods, all alone in the dark. I don't want that.
It's Thanksgiving. No demons.
No demonology. No Satanism.
Thank you. That's all I'm asking.

Speaker 3 Is that too much to ask? Hot food, no Satanism, please. Thanks.
Now,

Speaker 3 I'm at the table and they start in.

Speaker 3 The level of education and how many people listen to this. And I go, oh, we get well over a million every week.
Millions, lots. Well, do they have college education? Are they college educated?

Speaker 3 And they kept hammering this. And I knew where they were going.
And I know what they're doing. And this is what they are convinced that the fake

Speaker 3 thing they set up where you, by the way, it's amazing to see liberals defend the war industry, the pharmaceutical industry, and the toxic food industry. It's amazing to watch them defend all those.

Speaker 3 Now they're also defending the importance of the college slush funds Sally Mae scam where people are tricked into taking out $200,000 loans to get degrees of communications from the new school, Bingham 10, new house, whatever.

Speaker 3 And

Speaker 3 so I'm sitting there and all they have left is this sense of

Speaker 3 status that has been bestowed on them by a school.

Speaker 3 And

Speaker 3 to me, the most interesting people I've ever met in my life, some of them have been college educated, some of them haven't. Some of the most, the smartest people I've ever met.

Speaker 3 I'm not college educated. A lot of my friends dropped out of college.
A lot of my friends, I have friends that went to Harvard.

Speaker 3 So

Speaker 3 to me, it is not about that at all. It's not about that.
But there is this very weird thing where the Democrats are running around going, everyone that has college degrees voted for us.

Speaker 3 And everyone who didn't's an idiot. And all the people that we pretend to care about, like the workers and minorities

Speaker 3 that are working

Speaker 3 in labor and in the service sector, and all the people that we care about, that we don't actually care about them. We think they're idiots.
They're actually idiots. And we like college-educated

Speaker 3 people.

Speaker 3 So it need not apply. If you don't have a college degree, I guess you don't need to apply.

Speaker 3 They don't want to speak to you because you're not going to understand their gender gobbledygook or you're not going to understand why the Ukraine needs another trillion dollars, by the way.

Speaker 3 You're too dumb. You're too dumb to understand how men can get pregnant.
That's only for really smart, scientific people that have graduated a four-year university, okay?

Speaker 3 You mouth breather. You don't get it.

Speaker 3 You don't get why Israel needs another $90 billion to put the Palestinians on skewers and then make a little kebabs out of all the Palestinian children, which is what they're doing.

Speaker 3 But you won't get it.

Speaker 3 So they start in on that stuff. They start in on it.
And I, and I, I, and I, because my father's there, I'm not going to be a dick.

Speaker 3 I said, listen, I text my cousin. I go, get your stuff.

Speaker 3 I excused myself. I went upstairs.
I got my stuff. I had brought two pies from the Jericho cider mill, apple crumb pies.

Speaker 3 I stole them on the way out and I took them out through the garage into the Bentley. I put my cousin in.
We got out. Then we went to my other cousin's house.

Speaker 3 We had a lovely Thanksgiving with his mother whom we adore and love. But I'm not, and I didn't make a scene at all.
I just said, we have to go. It was a little startling.
It was abrupt.

Speaker 3 Said, we have to go to prepare for the new regime. I did say that.
I did say we must prepare for the new regime. I don't, I'm not going to sit here while they insult people.

Speaker 3 It is really the shittiest thing in the world to go to somebody's house and to try to insult them and say. you're an idiot and the people you talk to are idiots.
You're allowed to feel that way.

Speaker 3 Feel that way from your own house, which isn't in my neighborhood.

Speaker 3 Feel that way any way you want feel that way when you lose another five swing states maybe you lose maybe you know you lost a popular now every article is like well we didn't really lose that much it wasn't that big you lost every swing state and the guy won the popular vote you lost the senate and you you lost the house

Speaker 3 you lost it all well it actually wasn't that bad

Speaker 3 So I'm just saying, if people cannot conduct themselves appropriately, you do not have to have them in your home. I spent a long time in my life believing that to be a good person,

Speaker 3 you had to tolerate people's behavior just because you knew them. And these aren't even family members.
These are extended family, married in.

Speaker 3 This is not nuclear. It's not blood.
These are these divorced families. It don't really work, by the way.
Some of them do. A lot of them don't.
Okay? A lot of them just don't.

Speaker 3 When you're to Thanksgiving, you don't know who the hell's who. It's not ideal.
Pass the gravy, stranger.

Speaker 3 But I'm just saying,

Speaker 3 and you're going to insult Rogan and all these people and say this and that,

Speaker 3 you got to go. You got to go.

Speaker 3 We don't need you here. We don't need you here.
I could have been at

Speaker 3 the Kennedys. Grandma attacks family, stabs daughter during Thanksgiving argument.
Well, I didn't go in this direction, but I could have.

Speaker 3 55-year-old Memphis grandmother arrested for Thanksgiving melee.

Speaker 3 Police say grandma was heavily intoxicated before stabbing a granddaughter and hitting grandson. Let's listen to this.
Let's see if my yeah,

Speaker 3 go back. We're going to start this again because I like these happy Thanksgiving stories.
Because by the way, it's not always going to be

Speaker 3 love and light and peace on earth and goodwill to men.

Speaker 3 Sometimes it's going to be

Speaker 3 get your blade

Speaker 3 and do what you will.

Speaker 3 And we have to love this country in all

Speaker 3 manifestations. And we have to love

Speaker 3 like that. We can't demand always a Thanksgiving where everyone's happy.

Speaker 3 Sometimes we have to demand a Thanksgiving where there is justice. Let's watch.

Speaker 2 This all happened on Delta Road around three this afternoon. Fox 13 Sierra Jordan breaks down the moments leading up to this incident.

Speaker 4 Police say grandmother stabbed two of her family members after a verbal argument happened inside their home on Delta Road.

Speaker 4 The neighbors I spoke with were shocked to find crime scene tape blocking off their street as they were celebrating Thanksgiving with their loved ones.

Speaker 5 And they're just kind of unfortunate to

Speaker 5 have to go through this on Thanksgiving Day.

Speaker 4 James Stevens and his family were enjoying their Thanksgiving Day meal until they were interrupted by the sound of sirens coming from outside.

Speaker 5 We come outside to see all the y'all tape around.

Speaker 5 Got the street blocked off down there.

Speaker 4 Those sirens were police responding to an aggravated assault at a home on Delta Road just after 3 p.m.

Speaker 4 Police say a woman and her mother were arguing about various things, including the suspect pushing her son. Then police say the grandmother attacked her with a knife she got from the kitchen.

Speaker 4 The victim suffered abrasions to her left hand. Just moments later, the suspect then struck her grandson with a knife in his left hand near his thumb.

Speaker 4 That is when the grandmother ran away from the scene before officers arrived.

Speaker 5 The violence around Memphis is

Speaker 5 still

Speaker 5 very high. It's just

Speaker 5 you have to watch yourself on every corner and right here in our own home and neighborhoods.

Speaker 5 Family getting together, family, friends,

Speaker 5 feasting.

Speaker 5 never this. Right, right, okay.

Speaker 3 Well, listen, I withhold judgment because I don't know what they did to that woman before she grabbed the knife. I have no idea what they did to her.
Did they ask her about her college years?

Speaker 3 What did they do to her?

Speaker 3 You don't just pick up a knife. I'm not saying it's right.

Speaker 3 I'm not saying it's right. I'm saying you don't just pick up a knife on Thanksgiving.
You're driven to that. You're driven to picking up a knife.

Speaker 3 Okay?

Speaker 3 I'm not saying it's ideal. I'm just saying, hey, can we, can we at least, I want to hear from the grandmother, get up, put the boom mic through the bars of the cell to talk to grandma.

Speaker 3 I want to know why grandma grabbed the knife on Thanksgiving and went nuts. People are pushed.
People are pushed, man. And I'm telling you.
You have to create a space in your life.

Speaker 3 What do they say, wicked? They go holding space or whatever. Holding, I'm holding space.
That's right. Yeah.

Speaker 3 I'm holding space. What does that mean now? It's holding space for what?

Speaker 3 So it's for the song Defying Gravity. So people are holding space with it.
That's the context of the sentence. What is the meaning of that?

Speaker 3 I think it's up for your interpretation.

Speaker 3 It's like holding space for people that are marginalized. Is that what it is?

Speaker 3 Does anyone know? All right. I don't care that much, but

Speaker 3 I think it's one of those things where

Speaker 3 it's like holding space for people that, for trauma, for people that have trauma

Speaker 3 and people that want trauma. A lot of people want trauma in this country.
Let's be honest. A lot of people are going, where is trauma? I'm going for it.
A lot of people want trauma in this country.

Speaker 3 They indulge in it. They roll around in it like a little pig and they want it.

Speaker 3 And we have industries upon industries built on getting it out of them and then dousing them in it so they can never escape it.

Speaker 3 Museum of Ice Cream, near and dear to my heart, the Museum of Ice Cream, I love them.

Speaker 3 They are now being sued over the sprinkle pool because a weak father, this freak, he said he was injured jumping into the Soho sprinkle pool.

Speaker 3 I really dislike people, by the way, who ruin a good thing for everyone. Let me tell you exactly what this is, okay?

Speaker 3 In New York, which used to be the cultural epicenter of the world, but is now a large hatchet throwing installation, as far as I can tell. That's what New York has become now, by the way.

Speaker 3 It's escape rooms and come throw the hatchet. And oh, look, it's Harry Potter on Broadway.
It's a hell here. It's become a hell.

Speaker 3 But it's a big chase bank where you can throw the hatchet while they run your credit. That's what Manhattan has become.

Speaker 3 So in the middle of Manhattan, they decided to build something called the Museum of Ice Cream.

Speaker 3 And people go there and they jump in a sprinkle pool. This is

Speaker 3 what the greatest city in the world is doing, by the way. And these two news anchors are going to, with a straight face,

Speaker 3 okay, talk to you about the Museum of Ice Cream. And by the way, Andfully, we now have the Raising Canes global headquarters in Times Square.

Speaker 3 Everything they said the city was going to become, it is becoming.

Speaker 3 Let us watch this father who injured himself in the sprinkle pool at the museum, which my fat old agent took me to, Fatty Boombatty. God love her.
She hates when I say things about her.

Speaker 3 She was a great agent, lover, lover, lover, lover.

Speaker 3 And she took me because she had a couple of fatty boom baddies as clients, and we went to the Museum of Ice Cream. And the Museum of Ice Cream isn't great.

Speaker 3 Because here's the thing about Fatty Boombaddies. They don't really give a shit.

Speaker 3 Like, it's like,

Speaker 3 it's not like, hey,

Speaker 3 it's like, hey, where's the sample? No one cares that much. It's not Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory here.
We don't give a shit. We want the ice.
It's like the Ben and Jerry's tour.

Speaker 3 We don't care. Let's go to the, let's skip till the end.
How about we go to the boutique? Let's skip. Let's skip till we go to the boutique, okay?

Speaker 3 We don't care about, yeah, yeah, yeah, they're communists. We get it.
They're communists. They like mint.
Great. Let's skip.
Where's the scoop shop?

Speaker 3 The sprinkle pool at the Museum of Ice Cream is now at the center of a lawsuit.

Speaker 6 A father is claiming he was injured earlier this year when he jumped in. Christy Galician has the story from Soho.

Speaker 7 It's not quite like jumping into a ball pit. The Museum of Ice Cream's sprinkle pool has a harder landing.

Speaker 9 I saw a couple kids land pretty hard, so I'd be surprised if an adult would jump in there.

Speaker 7 But that's what happened back in late March, according to a lawsuit filed by jeremy short

Speaker 3 who says he got hurt in that spring do pedophiles design everything is there anything not being designed by pedophiles by the way is is there is there any it public inst art installation not being designed by pedophiles in this city well what if it's a pool of sprinkles and all the kids jump in that person should from that suggestion there should be a chute that opens and they go

Speaker 3 and they go right into a cell into jail

Speaker 3 right to jail

Speaker 3 i mean jesus christ

Speaker 7 ankle pool when jumping in earlier this year while at the museum's soho location with his daughter the complaint cites an ankle fracture and quote severe and permanent personal injuries to his right leg ankle and other parts of his body saying he needs surgery should have seen that it's not that deep so you should like put your foot in first at least to see it's like not that deep it's like this deep we don't need that The pool here seems to be at about ankle, maybe mid-calf for a little kid.

Speaker 8 and they are hollow there are these little thin

Speaker 7 plastic sprinkles here videos of other people jumping off the nearby diving boards were also included in the complaint like this one where this woman says she sprained her leg and needed crutches and another showing a woman falling why are you getting it you're an adult

Speaker 3 you're an adult

Speaker 3 stop that for a second why are in god's name

Speaker 3 Are adults, and they didn't have this years ago when I went, why did they, why are they

Speaker 3 jumping into the sprinkle pool? Look at this retar. Look how stupid this person is.

Speaker 3 This is a grown-ass woman doing a cannonball

Speaker 3 onto a fucking floor with a foot of plastic sprinkles. Play that again.
I can't get an oven.

Speaker 3 That was like my Thanksgiving dinner. That's how it went, by the way, just like this.

Speaker 3 Boom.

Speaker 3 Why? Do you realize this? Number one, think of how stupid we are as a society now, that we even have a sprinkle pool and that

Speaker 3 it needs to be regulated. That's how bad we are as a society, that there exists a thing called a sprinkle pool.
You can't just eat ice cream. You got to jump in a pool of sprinkle.

Speaker 3 Now, by the way, I think this guy knew this was like this. I think he needed a lawsuit.
I think this is a guy who goes, I'm fucked. I need to go jump in a sprinkle pool right now.

Speaker 3 I think he was sitting there talking to his wife and he goes, I've been to that. I've taken our kids.
I've seen a couple of people really injure themselves. I know how to get us out of this.

Speaker 3 I can get us out of it. They're sitting there, they're having a rough breakfast.
She's going, we are fucked.

Speaker 3 We have about four months of expenses left and then we are fucked. We've got nothing.
He goes, all right, all right.

Speaker 3 Listen, you're going to think it's crazy, but I'm going to go jump in the sprinkle pool at the Museum of Ice Cream and sprain my leg. We'll scare them, it'll get a lot of bad press.

Speaker 3 We'll settle out of court four or five hundred thousand, something to keep us alive here.

Speaker 3 John, that's ridiculous. I'm telling you, I've seen people.
I saw some dumb bitch do a cannonball into it the other day. People are getting hurt.
Really? Yes.

Speaker 3 I'm just saying I'm gonna go there and really hurt myself.

Speaker 3 John, don't do any permanent damage. I got a doctor.
He'll say I'm all fucked up.

Speaker 3 Really? Yes. I'm telling you.

Speaker 3 I mean, listen to this. The complaint failing to have sufficient, proper, and adequate warnings about the dangers and risks of the sprinkle pool.
Can you imagine this?

Speaker 3 Can you imagine being a grown man,

Speaker 3 a grown man, a grown-up?

Speaker 3 People in the Ukraine are dying. People in Russia are dying in this three-year bloody battle, right? People in Gaza are being lit on on fire, okay?

Speaker 3 People in Israel got kidnapped from a music festival and ended up in a tunnel, okay? People all over the, I,

Speaker 3 and my parents have dogs named after Slay, all of the problems in the world.

Speaker 3 And this guy is suing the Museum of Ice Cream because they have not sufficiently warned him about the dangers and risks of the sprinkle pool.

Speaker 3 Can you, you,

Speaker 3 you can never tell that story. I don't care how much money you get You can never tell that story in mixed company again.
Well, Joanna just got over cancer. Well

Speaker 3 John actually injured himself at the have you been to the museum of ice cream? He jumped in the sprinkle pool and hurt himself. He has tendon issues and kind of nerve issues a lot of neuropathy.

Speaker 3 He's got a lot of pain. And I'm telling you right now, there is this is the most undignified thing I have maybe seen in seven years of doing this show: is that

Speaker 3 a man has injured himself in the sprinkle pool here? Let's finish this up, it's disgusting.

Speaker 7 A lack of proper warnings about the risks of jumping in, and how the museum has advertised the sprinkle pool as a place to plunge in.

Speaker 8 Before entering the pool, patrons are told to take their shoes off. We're also told by the sign here, across from the little cubbies,

Speaker 8 not to run

Speaker 8 and not to dive,

Speaker 8 as well as not to eat the sprinkles

Speaker 3 i really believe

Speaker 3 i hope trump if he does anything i hope he bans all of this i hope he bans all of these experiences and he brings back just hookers and gambling

Speaker 3 i all of these experiences that people are getting into these like viral marketing stunts this hatchet throwing this these escape rooms these weird

Speaker 3 odd like quasi, you know,

Speaker 3 social

Speaker 3 experiment type. I just, I want it all gone.
This, it should not be in New York. Let it happen in other places.

Speaker 3 Let it happen somewhere else. I don't feel comfortable.
And if it happens, let it be a pop-up. This thing's been there like a decade.
Like, I'm uncomfortable.

Speaker 3 with the level of banality and mediocrity that New York City is just

Speaker 3 churning out all of this very like

Speaker 3 basic stuff for basic people, which is not what it was.

Speaker 3 The city was not intended to be a mall in the suburbs. It's not what it was intended to be.

Speaker 3 I mean, the fact that we have a sprinkle pool and we have these retards who don't know that they shouldn't dive into it. What's going on here?

Speaker 3 I don't like this.

Speaker 3 it's it's just becoming like

Speaker 3 By the way, the Thanksgiving Day parade, I don't know what it's dark now.

Speaker 3 Something happened to this parade.

Speaker 3 It's something's wrong with it. I don't know what it is.
And it's not like that Disney is trying to make your kids gay or something. I'm not going in that direction.

Speaker 3 I'm just saying like the actual parade itself. Can you play some footage of it?

Speaker 3 I know they were in the rain. There's just the magic is gone.
I don't know what happened.

Speaker 3 Is this this year?

Speaker 3 Yeah.

Speaker 3 can you just pick a random spot and just play something

Speaker 3 look it's this is not

Speaker 3 good

Speaker 3 it's dark something was off this year and a lot of people agree with me

Speaker 3 When you watch the parade, like something was odd. It just didn't feel...
What is that? what is that

Speaker 3 what is that thing some sort of anime character i don't what is happening

Speaker 3 the balloons are scary now

Speaker 3 what is that this is the green giant why is it a thing

Speaker 3 isn't that the vegetable yeah

Speaker 3 something's wrong here

Speaker 3 If I showed you this and this was the beginning of Batman and it was creepy and eerie, you would go, yeah.

Speaker 3 am I totally wrong here to say that this just, is it just the rain? Why is this person on stilts?

Speaker 3 There's something dark. Look at this.

Speaker 3 Listen, maybe I'm wrong and maybe I'm going crazy and maybe people that are listening to this are free to say that I'm, I've lost my marbles.

Speaker 3 There was something about the parade this year. Get some more of it up.
There was something about it this year that I found very disconcerting. I didn't find it to be warm and wholesome and fun.

Speaker 3 And again, it's not because it was like the Drag Queen Story Hour float, although the Death Becomes was a little odd, but it's fine. What is this? The Kinderbar chocolate float?

Speaker 3 Yeah, it's a lot of brands. It was all Spawn Con.

Speaker 3 It's all weird Spawn Con, and no one looks into it.

Speaker 3 All right, SpongeBob. Great.

Speaker 3 What is this?

Speaker 3 No one, I know it's raining, and maybe that explains it, but no one looks into this anymore. People look like they're for, this is like a Soviet-era parade.

Speaker 3 This is like the military parades in Moscow look are seem, people seem happier. This seems like people were conscripted and drafted into this.

Speaker 3 No one looks happy. They look like they're like,

Speaker 3 again,

Speaker 3 I've watched this every year since I'm a kid,

Speaker 3 and I just felt weird about it this year. It is something weird.
This is the marching band from Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

Speaker 3 This is like their whole year, huh? They come to this rainy slum. And New York's the greatest city in the world.
I don't mean it's a slum, but

Speaker 3 I just can't. I couldn't get into it this year, and I felt, I felt bad about it.
Maybe I'm wrong. Homeless court in Florida,

Speaker 3 this is going to be really great.

Speaker 3 New program exchanges homeless crime sentences if defendants show they are taking measures to end their homelessness. I like this

Speaker 3 because here's what we're doing. Number one, homeless court is going to be the best news show on TV.

Speaker 3 Instead of like bringing just helping homeless people, making them show up to a court and kind of verbally joust with a judge duty type is really a good idea.

Speaker 3 Make the

Speaker 3 text bigger if you could.

Speaker 3 Because this is Orlando, Florida.

Speaker 3 Amid fears that a new state law criminalizes those who sleep outside, Central Florida leaders are coalescing around a diversion program to waive court sentences for people experiencing homelessness in exchange for pursuing treatment, housing, and employment.

Speaker 3 Such a program is called a homeless court and

Speaker 3 could apply to unsheltered residents who are frequently arrested for violations like public urination, disorderly conduct, or public sleeping.

Speaker 3 They often are unable to pay the associate fine, and arresting them only creates more barriers to getting back on their feet.

Speaker 3 Under some models of the program, a homeless court judge could drop charges if someone takes concrete steps to end their homelessness. I like this is a good idea.

Speaker 3 I think it's pretty cool.

Speaker 3 I like it.

Speaker 3 So

Speaker 3 the homeless show up to the court.

Speaker 3 And

Speaker 3 is it where we solve disputes between homeless people in the court? I like that too.

Speaker 3 If we find two homeless people that are fighting over something, a resource, we bring them in and then like a Judge Mathis style, Judge Judy

Speaker 3 kind of gets to the bottom of it.

Speaker 3 There's something great about that, that idea of just because they're part of our society, they're having disputes, homeless people are disputing things, that was my chair, stuff like that.

Speaker 3 That

Speaker 3 should be adjudicated in a court of law. A homeless court can't provide shelter to those who need it.

Speaker 3 Central cities and Florida counties to face an urgent need to create more shelter beds, but it can help take advantage of the options that exist.

Speaker 3 Such a program would likely exist outside of a traditional courtroom, though it would still have a judge, a public defender, prosecutor, and other features of a typical legal program.

Speaker 3 This is fucking great. Get it out of the, like, do it on the street.
Have like a fun homeless court. Build one with like

Speaker 3 tires and chicken wire, and you build a podium with like, you know, the homeless court should look like where homeless people live.

Speaker 3 It's ridiculous to put them in a court with like these big marble halls. It's insane.
Build a homeless court out of things in the area. Have ironing boards for the two desks.

Speaker 3 Have the judge sit like on top a mound of stuff, fashion it into a chair, and televise. Please

Speaker 3 televise this every episode of Homeless Court. Every episode of Homeless Court needs to be televised.

Speaker 3 Every episode of Homeless Court, this is a hit. It's a hit.

Speaker 3 There's not a lot of stuff that I'm bullish on now. You know that.
I neg a lot of stuff, and I'm right too.

Speaker 3 But I am bullish on homeless court.

Speaker 3 Homeless people

Speaker 3 hashing out their problems with other homeless people in front of a judge. They get lawyers.

Speaker 3 They have public defendants. Stop biting.
Sit down.

Speaker 3 No drinking in the court. Sorry, Your Honor.
This could be great.

Speaker 3 Homelessness is not going anywhere. We might as well make it

Speaker 3 more

Speaker 3 just.

Speaker 3 They're not leaving the street. Let's make the street more just.

Speaker 3 If they have issues, if they want things, like if you want something.

Speaker 3 The nation's first homeless court was founded in San Diego, and in a three-year period, it handled nearly 11,000 cases.

Speaker 3 Just 16 of those cases resulted in a guilty plea. Yeah, well, of course.
11,000 cases. Did you do it? No.

Speaker 3 No.

Speaker 3 16 of them resulted in a guilty plea.

Speaker 3 He's saying you lit his tent on fire. Nah.
All right.

Speaker 3 So he's saying you came into his tent and at knife point stole drugs from him. No, you didn't do that.
Okay.

Speaker 3 Well,

Speaker 3 by the powers vested in me in homeless court, you are free to go.

Speaker 3 Please, please have a homeless court. That's where this sprinkle pool freak should have to go.
He should go to homeless court, by the way, and he should have to explain.

Speaker 3 He should have to explain that he injured himself in a sprinkle pool.

Speaker 3 When the homeless, when somebody comes up to homeless court and they're bleeding and they're just, they're having like a seizure and they're screaming at the judge. And then they go, all right,

Speaker 3 move on and then they bring up him and he goes hi i injured myself in a sprinkle pool now i i'd like some money i'm sorry about this

Speaker 3 there's two homeless guys trying to figure out who bid who first and then they go we're gonna we're gonna take a recess to do this uh sprinkle pool nonsense what does Zen really give you?

Speaker 3 I also, you know, before we get out of here, I want to talk a little bit about Gen Z because

Speaker 3 Gen Z right now, the loneliest generation, they're spending six hours a day online.

Speaker 3 And this is obviously not their fault. The people writing about these time, I'm not saying Gen Z is putting, planting these articles because we're all a little sick of it.

Speaker 3 We're all a little sick of Gen Z. Every time we see them, they're dancing, by the way.
But we're all a little sick of that they're the loneliest generation and they're spending too much time online.

Speaker 3 By the way,

Speaker 3 Australia just banned social media for people under 16.

Speaker 3 Social media is banned for people under 16 in Australia. Maybe that comes here in America.
Probably not. There's just too much money in it.
It seems like there's too much money

Speaker 3 that these things like TikTok are going to get banned.

Speaker 3 But Australia, they're not letting the kids on social media anymore.

Speaker 3 And a lot of this is probably a benefit

Speaker 3 to them.

Speaker 3 Okay.

Speaker 3 And they're going to really fine these companies if they catch, if they fail to prevent children 16 and younger. Now, what does that do to TikTok?

Speaker 3 If you ban kids under 16 on TikTok, you're eating up their user base. Correct? Yeah.

Speaker 3 So I'll just tell you this.

Speaker 3 I think Gen Z

Speaker 3 is going to end up,

Speaker 3 I think what's going to happen with Gen Z is that

Speaker 3 this type of

Speaker 3 social media,

Speaker 3 whatever you want to call it, if you want to call it censorship, but it really isn't censorship.

Speaker 3 Social media is being blamed for all the ills in society.

Speaker 3 And make no mistake, it causes a lot. of them.
Is it a scapegoat? Sure. But is it a valid one? Yes.

Speaker 3 Young children are being manipulated on social media. They are being made to feel like shit.
They're being

Speaker 3 bullied. They're bullying each other.
They're interacting with adults in very unhealthy ways.

Speaker 3 They're being sexualized. They're being pulled into different communities they shouldn't be in.

Speaker 3 So this is actually the first Australia,

Speaker 3 this is the first

Speaker 3 country to to just say, fuck it, we're not having social media if you're under 16 years old. We're not going to do it.
You're not allowed. Think of how revolutionary this is.

Speaker 3 You're not allowed to have social media if you're under 16.

Speaker 3 None.

Speaker 3 You can be on the internet.

Speaker 3 Prime Minister Anthony Albany said the law supported parents concerned by online harms to their children.

Speaker 3 Platforms now have a social responsibility to ensure the safety of our kids is a priority to them.

Speaker 3 Here's the question: Will America do this?

Speaker 3 Jonathan Haidt wrote that book, The Anxious Generation. And the premise of that book was that social media is destroying the minds of kids.
Here's the problem: it makes a lot of money.

Speaker 3 Social media companies make a lot of money.

Speaker 3 And if you kick everybody under 16 off you're gonna lose a lot of money will America ever pursue that

Speaker 3 will we ever put people's well-being above profit like that it will be interesting

Speaker 3 you know I don't know I can't

Speaker 3 for say

Speaker 3 Some people said this policy will hurt vulnerable young people the most, especially in regional communities and especially the LGBTQI community by cutting them off.

Speaker 3 You know, people were gay before Snapchat.

Speaker 3 I don't know how to tell people this.

Speaker 3 They were gay before Snapchat. They were.
And they'll be gay after Snapchat. They're going to be gay and trans and whatever.
I don't think they necessarily, what they are saying is that

Speaker 3 gay people can find each other on the internet. Well, the argument is that every group of people can find each other on the internet, but those people also exist in real life, by the way.

Speaker 3 They exist in real life. Maybe to a lesser extent, they're straight people, for sure.
Statistically, yes.

Speaker 3 But

Speaker 3 I do think that,

Speaker 3 you know,

Speaker 3 Wayne Holdsworth, whose teenage son Mac took his own life after falling victim to an online sex tortion scam, has advocated for the age restriction and took pride in its passage.

Speaker 3 I have always been a proud Australian, but for me, subsequent to today's Senate decision, I am bursting with pride.

Speaker 3 So there's a lot of kids in australia because australia is very interesting it's a very dark place even though it's very like sunny and you know it's everybody's in great shape and they all go a lot of deadly animals but nobody cares people go swimming they surf they're hot they da da da da da there's a weird darkness underneath it because they're all descendants of criminals and they all live in these kind of like bucolic suburbs but underneath that there's a real darkness they've taken all these aboriginals and put them in the middle of the country um

Speaker 3 there's that they don't really speak about. But even deeper than that is just this idea, I think, that

Speaker 3 the Australian culture is about drinking and partying and having fun. And there's not many more elements to it, except for that.

Speaker 3 And I think you either fit into that or you don't. And if you don't fit into that,

Speaker 3 You know, I don't know what you're doing over there, but there's been some wild stuff in Australia.

Speaker 3 Some weird stories, that woman who poisoned her family with those mushrooms, the largest child child porn bust

Speaker 3 in the 2010s was in Australia. Like there's some weird shit going on.
And I do understand people that go, hey,

Speaker 3 this will deprive the kids of the positive aspects of social media, drive them to the dark web, discourage children too young for social media to report harm, and reduce incentives for platforms to improve online safety.

Speaker 3 I do understand.

Speaker 3 saying that my son or daughter

Speaker 3 has found a community on the internet internet that they don't have in their physical life and it has helped them.

Speaker 3 I get that, but there's a lot of children that are that are being harmed on the internet, that are being taken advantage of, that are not finding physical communities.

Speaker 3 And

Speaker 3 that, you know, they're being extorted. Send me nudes.
And then that poor kid like killed himself because they were saying, give us money or we're going to leak all your stuff. You know?

Speaker 3 I just wonder in America, will we ever do that in America?

Speaker 3 I don't know. It just doesn't feel like it's coming.

Speaker 3 Many of the children in America

Speaker 3 who

Speaker 3 we would be protecting

Speaker 3 by getting rid of

Speaker 3 social media

Speaker 3 are just,

Speaker 3 you know,

Speaker 3 they make too much goddamn money, these kids.

Speaker 3 You know, like

Speaker 3 they have thriving enterprises, some of these children. Thriving.

Speaker 3 They're killing it.

Speaker 3 Killing it. And you got to break a few

Speaker 3 kids to make an omelette or whatever. And I think,

Speaker 3 and I'm saying it's terrible what's happening

Speaker 3 but that some of these kids

Speaker 3 like not everybody on the internet is gonna care about kids as much as that mr. Beast

Speaker 3 right

Speaker 3 like they're

Speaker 3 you right like him and his crew they care about the kids but there are gonna be people on the internet that aren't good to the kids

Speaker 3 mr. Beast's crew was so not they would like talk to the kids

Speaker 3 to me to take time out of your day as a content creator to constantly speak to children is pretty fucking cool

Speaker 3 and not every creator is going to have the time to do that

Speaker 3 I'm just saying

Speaker 3 it warms my heart because I get emotional because I was a kid that was,

Speaker 3 I was misunderstood and I was alone.

Speaker 3 And if someone from Mr. B's team could have reached out to me

Speaker 3 when I was a child and kind of good looking, let's be honest, and

Speaker 3 had me talk to them and send photos of myself, I would have felt better.

Speaker 3 That's my point.

Speaker 3 So maybe we don't ban the kids on the internet. Just do what Mr.
Beast's team does

Speaker 3 and engage with them.

Speaker 3 Right? I mean, isn't that the answer? Isn't the answer, let's not ignore them, reach out to them, DM them,

Speaker 3 ask them what they look like. It makes them feel good, right?

Speaker 3 Am I wrong? I don't feel like I'm wrong.

Speaker 3 I'm curious. I'm asking questions.
I don't know how to do it. it.
My audience is adults, all people.

Speaker 3 It's curious to me.

Speaker 3 We have a lot of selfish creators that are not reaching out and exchanging photos with children on the internet.

Speaker 3 We'll end with this. Canada Mall criticized for using baby shark to deter homeless.

Speaker 3 Montreal Mall Mall plays baby shark in hallways and stairwells so homeless don't sleep there.

Speaker 3 Blasting baby shark to keep out homeless people is just the latest tactic.

Speaker 3 Let's see this. Let's watch this.
Blasting baby shark. Just an adverse.

Speaker 3 Well, there's nothing to really do. You know, you can't, you have to, you have to, that song is annoying

Speaker 3 baby shark to do

Speaker 3 Here, let's see what

Speaker 3 oh What happened here

Speaker 3 What's going on?

Speaker 3 This link is coming in weird

Speaker 3 They probably can't even play we probably can't even play baby shark. That's probably why my godson loves baby shark

Speaker 3 An advocate for homeless people calls it tactic cruel and unusual

Speaker 3 It is impossible to resolve the complexities of homelessness by using juvenile tactics that are conceived to explode. Well, I did a thing about this years ago where

Speaker 3 they were just trying to turn

Speaker 3 every public space into a level from Super Mario Bros.

Speaker 3 Like it all had spikes and it all had like things that prevented homeless people from sitting down and it just had like thromps like falling on the homeless people.

Speaker 3 It just became Super Mario World.

Speaker 3 They just had little Koopas, little mechanical Koopa choppas that go by.

Speaker 3 Well, they're trying to turn all these public spaces into video games so that homeless people cannot sit there or lay down or do anything.

Speaker 3 And now they're blasting Baby Shark.

Speaker 3 It's not easy. Nothing's easy.
Okay?

Speaker 3 They're now hiring social workers to ensure a dialogue with homeless people. Our aim is to not coerce, but to support these people.
Well, that's, you know.

Speaker 3 What if the social workers like keep trying to talk to the homeless people? They're like, we can get you, we can get you a consultation. They'll do intake, they'll put in, and like none of it works.

Speaker 3 So the social workers just like look at the homeless people and then they go,

Speaker 3 grandpa shark to do to do grandpa shark to do to do. And the fucking homeless people are like, no!

Speaker 3 The social workers just sing baby shark very quietly. grandma shark

Speaker 3 grandma shark can you imagine that that's your job i'm the guy that plays baby shark to get the homeless out of the corridor

Speaker 3 can you imagine that point in your day where they go go get him ralph and he's got to go crank up baby shark so that homeless people get up from the stairwell and move on to the next alley.

Speaker 3 That's a guy's job. Like we often talk about these things.
We don't think about that. That's someone's job.
He's got a blast baby shark like he's an Abu Ghraib torturing a detainee.

Speaker 3 He's got, because we did that with like loud music. He's got to blast the song Baby Shark and then watch the homeless crawl out of the of the stairwell.

Speaker 3 Can we is there any non-copyrighted baby shark we can play?

Speaker 3 Or is it all

Speaker 3 it's probably all copyright? Yeah. They probably got it it all covered

Speaker 3 because it's such an interesting

Speaker 3 it is so annoying that song

Speaker 3 and you just see them like lumbering out

Speaker 3 you play baby shark because it had to by the way they wouldn't do it if it didn't work so one night they tried it they go just fuck it flood them with baby shark and they turned up baby shark and then all of a sudden you just saw a bunch of people like that big foot and the blanket and they just started mosing down the road and they went oh we found we found what gets the homeless people moving.

Speaker 3 And it's the song Baby Shark.

Speaker 3 I wonder if it was the first song they tried.

Speaker 3 This has like a million trillion views. It has 15 billion views.
Baby Shark. It's one of the most viewed videos on YouTube.
Some of those views are homeless people being kicked out of a stairwell.

Speaker 3 By the way, that accounts for like the last 200 views are homeless people wandering out of a stairwell
