wow wow Wes we're live Sager thank you. dude thank you for coming thank you for. having me I like your setup than thank. you it's it's uh it's since I'm in. politics you know I kind of think I I uh. I Vibe with the set more I think I think. it's a good look for you too D I think. you look good on that I I there's. something see now I feel really. self-conscious I should have worn my. suit the only reason I didn't is cuz I'm. going out after this you know I'm like. going to be about the town you don't. want to be walking around Austin Texas I. did it yesterday after Lex freedman's. podcast and I was getting a lot of look. you guys both Su yes we both wore suits.

that's right that's kind of nice but his. is the black suit his is different he. has like a uniform and I like to change. it up he's like an alien fighter he. dresses like Will Smith from men exactly. it's kind of there's something nice. about that I've always wanted to do the. Steve Jobs thing where I wear the same. thing every day you could do it I think. you could do it I feel like I could I. know one guy who's been wearing all. white for seven years and I might Jack. his swag in comedy do you think it is. useful to have a uniform or no cuz I. noticed that comedians have been getting. very like fashion forward and sometimes. I'll go to a set and I'll be like. honestly what he's wearing is kind of.

distracting me right now yeah I don't. understand why I mean I I have like a. loose uniform it's just jeans usually. these sneakers and I just switch a plain. color T-shirt that's fine see that. that's that's like uh that's comfortable. I could see that working but sometimes. I'll see these guys in like crazy ass. Gucci stuff dude I'm blinded by you. right now I can't even hear what you're. saying I I never understood that too cuz. it's like dude you're supposed to be. making people laugh you tell me I it's. your it's your profession I I don't know. what it is I I see people go way fashion. forward on the stage and I'm kind of. like dude you're kind of it's like a. distraction totally nobody I totally.

agree like nobody cares your job here is. to play the fool like you're trying to. dress like a cool guy it's like I I. think it detracts I I'm with you man I'm. with I think it detracts if I if I ever. wear anything that is remotely. eye-catching I'll think about it on. stage the entire time really I can't. yeah they took me forever to this is my. a ring it's just for tracking my. Biometrics uh took me forever I would. meet every every person I met I'd be. like I'm usually not a two- ring guy. you're the only or ring person I know. who's a guy I know track their periods I.

know that's why every women I know is. like they're obsessed with period. tracking but so how does how does it. feel be a guy wearing an aura R what do. you even get out of the me and sex from. 311 I'm not the only guy 311 wears oring. too real men real men wear whoop straps. whoop straps are cool but here's the. thing sleeping with something on my. wrist I I I get it to track my sleep my. sleep is way with this you can sleep. with this just too clunky on my hand is. too clunky on your hand it's too clunky. I tried doing the Apple watch sleep and. it just I can't get with it I'll tell. you when I got my wedding ring it took. me months to get used to this [ __ ] I was. just even now I'm always like this I no.

subconsciously I'm T banging on [ __ ] I. felt weird for the longest time and then. now if I don't have it on I feel like a. right like a naked boy do you ever get. terrified that you're going to rip your. finger off I think about that all the. time how are you going to rip your. finger off I don't know like the the. trunk or something like something will. catch just exactly the right way oh. you're going to come into it like that. yeah and your entire finger is going to. be completely ripped off then it's well. you look if you rip your ring finger off. then it's on you can do whatever you. want just be like bro my bad what you. even tell your wife put the ring on the.

nub yeah she like I lost my ring you. just cheat on her all the time cuz you. don't have a ring finger like I don't. have a ring finger it's gone our vs are. over yeah if you lose that finger you're. a batch you're a b good I like that wait. you remember those rules in the 2000s um. I love watching you know 2000s movies or. actually 1990s like American Pie when. they're like it's not cheating if you're. in not in the same zip code yeah and. rewatching it 25 later 25 years later. you're like that makes no [ __ ] sense.

here like what are you talk like how was. this conventional wisdom in 2001 that. the hall pass was another big one. like that was there was a whole Friends. episode like what's your hall pass and. all like but that's not real it's. totally fake yeah you're you're [ __ ]. lady in a hotel room like stop acting. like it's a cute thing to do yeah I was. literally just thinking about hall. passes yesterday I was like they tried. to push that for a little bit they like. it was auge 2000s Trope as if all. relationships functioned on uh if you're. not in separate area codes you're not. married or engage hall passes were.

apparently an allegedly a thing what. else was there there was work work was a. huge thing that sh pisses me off yeah I. don't like that stuff the entire work. wife concept is [ __ ] weird you know I. me I understand how it arises but it's. like it's not your work wife you're. cheating on your wife exactly you're. having an emotional relationship you are. having an emotional affair that's going. to bleed over right yeah things were. weird in the 90s things and there was. also in the 90s it was like very invogue. we talked about this before but it was. like very invogue to like like jail bait.

the concept of like having sex with. under women was just like yo Bro [ __ ]. jail bait that was a big that's another. big American Pie thing too yeah I mean. man re they don't age well but they are. still hilarious they're so funny they. should remake it they should do it again. they we need what was the last one. American Wedding is that what that I I. lost track American Pie I saw that that. was like a huge thing to see when I was. younger I I I kind of jumped off that. and hangover I didn't really Follow The. Hangover as well so good comedy's they. stopped making comedy movies for the. whole reason I'm here is is filming TI.

now it's the emerg it's reemerging and. that that technically is a show The. Comedy the Great American Comedy there. was like the fly Brothers all these. people you don't have they don't you. don't have like a comedy in the theaters. and the weirdest thing too is that the. director Todd Phillips I mean he made so. many of those movies that I love old. school he made what else did he make he. made road trip I think which is an. incredible film road trip is so good but. now and then he did The Hangover he. became filthy rich but then he just made. he made the Joker movie and then he made. Joker 2 just adorable it's like to why.

did they do that I don't know I mean um. the Galaxy brain case Tarantino had a. really good quote he's like Joker is. Todd Phillips saying you know the way he. talks he's like Joker is Todd Phillips. saying way I'm saying [ __ ] you to the. audience and and that's why it's. brilliant and I was like I don't know. Tarantino I think you're Galaxy braining. yourself and how that this shitty movie. is actually really sucks yeah it's just. bad it's just empirically bad I know. even even though to be like yeah cuz it. for me I always think of like the move. like the I guess if you're already you.

have that track record it's like people. will still invest in you well that's. thing is [ __ ] you money and also he's. super weird dude one of my favorite. books uh I read about Hollywood was. Molly's game actually also became a. movie which is a good movie I think it's. on Netflix um and it's about that girl. who ran the high stakes poker game in in. Hollywood but I ended up reading the. book and I found out Toby Maguire is a. complete and total psycho so Toby yeah I. had no idea so Toby was part of the. quote unquote [ __ ] posy.

so I knew that but then I'm reading. about these weird psychological mind. games that he would play in the book and. he would at one point he had a quote. where he's like poker is not about. winning poker is about destroying. people's souls and he would string. people along and bring them and get them. into debt and he was constantly charging. this girl the girl who ran the games and. he was [ __ ] with her and her. livelihood and he would take the G he's. a multi hundred millionaire or whatever. right and he's con's he's charging her. for using his automatic shuffling just.

weird power game [ __ ] like like True. Hollywood he's like an evil nerd he's. like an evil nerd psycho reading that. book I was like dude you are an actual. psychopath like and this CIS he's the. jockey that's that's he Spider-Man. that's all I know about this guy I was. like oh man this is well he's probably. upset his parents died when he was. younger and he had to become like. superhero got bit by a spider he's got. that and then uh yeah the more I learned. and then Todd Phillips was in the book. too that's what made me think of so this. is all like a biographer basically like. digging into these she wrote the book.

she was like my journey running States. poker she was like the assistant to some. rich Hollywood [ __ ] and he brought her. to run the games and then so she got in. with like Toby Maguire apparently Leo. came and Toby got Leo to come and py. yeah but Leo also apparently like didn't. talk to anybody and just put his. headphones on the entire time while he. was playing po dude I've heard a. headphones story about Leo i g to say so. so that's what reminded me of the other. you know the song You know the song he. listens to no what is it oh dude it's uh.

[ __ ] Time to Pretend he listens to Time. to Pretend while like like someone who's. wearing like basically young women I. mean I look I don't get it I mean Time. to Pretend dude what in what she's 27. It's Time to Pretend she's 27 she's no. Younger what's what's the saying she's. 18 he's pretending oh that's right he's. trying to pretend that she's 18 he's. trying to pretend she's 27 but she is 18. the whole thing is very strange the Leo. thing I don't get it I love Leo he's. such an incredible actor he's got great. instincts he's actually a very very. smart guy um but yeah his personal life.

it's weird I think we need to call spade. a spade it is and it's also one of those. things where I think Bill bar is like. another avowed kind of like yeah I [ __ ]. 19 year- olds and I'm 65 and he's like. he's older than that I think he's like. 67 bro he might he might be pushing 70. actually really yeah and he it's another. one where it's like yeah it's it is. weird it is definitely weird dude. because just the mental difference is. crazy yeah I mean we're talking like. order like statistical like like think. about how many standard deviations of. what you are it's like a vampire it's. like you're an immortal vampire at that.

point you're 70 talking to an 18yearold. 18-year-old girl you're kind of. babysitting her absolutely you are. there's no question I don't know man and. if it's like dude like you can be like I. can make a you know I can make a. geometric case for their breasts it's. like all right dude well like dude just. stop being such a pervert go jack off D. you don't have to date an 18-year-old. just go jerk off you don't have to like. try to make it a lifestyle see I love. this because this is a very just natural. way of us like you know bringing. ourselves to being like yeah you know. there's actually really something about. you should just get married bro just get.

be normal being normal is good it's. actually a good thing people who aren't. normal are [ __ ] weirdos and I mean. you know you and I are in a unique. position where you actually probably. eventually get to met meet some of these. famous people that you see or other or. you get to just hear little things that. are not the public and you're like oh. yeah there's a real cost to this isn't. there like and I'm like I'm not really. sure you like I don't want to [ __ ] with. this this is not the way that I choose. to live my life and I don't really want. to be a soci well dude there comes a. point where you're either involved in. this like you know cuz yeah you're. absolutely right cuz you get to like you. know they're like the rarified air of.

like Hollywood and all stuff and it does. turn into like a diabolical power game. and it's like we all have those. instincts to participate in some level. but there are people who give their. entire lives to like you know like. looking at another guy's car or be being. like he got what project [ __ ]. [ __ ] where's my 19-year-old. girlfriend I need to [ __ ] eat her. [ __ ] right now to real like weird. consumer like idolatry of the self and. it's like everything that I've learned. you know in life is just like all of. that is is horrible and it's bad there's.

a good political you know thing to this. too if you stay in washingt the thing is. lots of people who are young come to. Washington 22 23 years old wide-eyed. bushy tailed all of that most people. burn out by 27 so I'm like in my mid-30s. now and so I'm in the cohort like we. made it like the people who actually got. the job stayed in the lifestyle and all. that but this is also you know there's. this uh cringe show but How I Met Your. Mother and there's a very important. concept that Barney lays out in that. show where he's like relationship and I. think life is like this have off ramps.

like an exit where it's like. relationships is like one year 3 year 5. year 10 year 25 something like that. you're and if you look statistically. he's not wrong in terms of like when. divorces and breakups and all that stuff. happen but for yeah for like. professional DC or honestly any career. where it requires you to give [ __ ]. everything to it but then you start to. see one of the most important pieces. advice I got was like look at where you. are and then look at the guy who's 10. years in that same path and I was in the. White House briefing room for example. and I was looking around I'm like wait a.

second I'm like I don't want to be any. of you people like I need to get the. [ __ ] out of here I'm like this is I'm. like if we're on this track I'm like. this is a bad track we got to get out. what was the White House briefing what. do you would you was that like when you. sit and ask questions at like yeah. that's where well I didn't even get to. sit I had to stand like a [ __ ] in the. corner um but excuse me you're like just. yelling questions it's horrible man yeah. so uh actually I'm hopeful with the new. Administration that we can change some. of this up so the way it works is that. the White House correspon Association is. like a cartel and uh even though it's. unofficial they run everything so all.

the briefing room seats are assigned by. the White House correspondence. Association I was working for the Daily. Caller at the time which is like. conservative media outlet and if you. want a seat you have to apply and. applying takes years to get a new seat. and so if you don't have a seat then. obviously you have to get there early so. I would get there hours early ahead of. time just to be able to stand in the in. the um in the hallway like on the side. uh and you're literally crammed in up. against like all these different people. there's all this jockeying and there's. like foreigners.

literally it looks it's like a movie. right and then you just sit there and. you kind of like poke your hand I was. lucky cuz I'm tall so I actually get my. hand above there was a short girl behind. me and she was like can I get in front. of you I'm like sorry [ __ ] I got yeah. it's a doggy dog world like get here. earlier yeah I don't know what to tell. you that that's the pro that's what I'm. talking about though I don't want to be. that person that actually sucks or there. was this girl who she's like hi I'm. shooting a documentary I'm from England. and all this and I was just wondering if. I get my shot I'm like yeah but if you. get your shot I'm I get my question so I. like and then my boss is going to chew. my ass out so it's just not going happen. yeah like and you don't want to be in.

that mind space is more what I'm saying. so that's probably it takes a toll ites. Hollywood Finance politics all these. other things all function the same way. in that if you want to be in the top. point. one% of your field you have to. give everything to it and that's it. there's no other choice yeah and you. know people should be real with that so. if you're listening and you're like. thinking like oh I really want to do. something like that just be just. understand what it takes understand what. it actually takes to get there oh dude. yeah for sure dude it's funny cuz I'm. I'm viewing schools now for and it's. like kind of related so I'm looking at. schools for my uh daughter she's going. into kindergarten next year so we're.

like looking at and it's like dude. schools now are I think it's good but. they're what I've been seeing it's like. they're educating people to like do. something for everybody to like bring. something to the world rather than like. you know when we were in school it was. more like build yourself up so that. you're a high value individual that you. can just take resources for yourself and. just you know like [ __ ] off and it's. like yeah but the problem is is like. they sold everyone that dream but the. reality is is like most people aren't. going to get those well and it's.

most people don't want to do that you. don't want like for I'm Indians so I. know a lot of doctors it's like do you. want to know how hellish medical school. is be real whenever you like for real do. you want to spend eight years in school. four years making [ __ ] money with. $300,000 in debt working 89 days hours a. week getting [ __ ] on by the attending. physicians then hoping hoping and. praying that you get you know your. placement or whatever for the next job. so by the time you're my age you can. finally get your first paycheck oh but. [ __ ] you even though you get your first. night paycheck 90 % of that is going to. be going to clearing off of all your.

medical debt and you've lived 10 years. you're probably now addicted to smoking. food like somebody of something there's. no way again you you know this too when. you work really hard like it takes it. all from you you're going to be addicted. to energy drinks nicotine whatever like. you need something it's not possible to. do it natural it's dude it's true I've. I've gone back and forth and it's like. I'm like no I don't need anything and I. had like a pretty harsh caffeine phase. for myself I'm like sensitive to it I. had to stop that cuz I wasn't sleeping. but how do you cuz you travel a lot.

right that's. brutal it sucks I've recently introduced. the Melatonin I'm a very like natural. type I don't want to take anything but. i' I've succumbed to just like. interesting just can I give you a. warning about melatonin though so Andrew. huberman says not to take melatonin I. know man I know it's not good right it. was something about something he said. like the the label on the bottle can be. anywhere between like 2% and 100 1,000%. of what's actually in there what yeah. and he said something don't take my word. for it but it was something along the. lines of I've seen them give into rats. and it shrivels their balls so he like I.

think that it messes. with my opinion stay stay off the. Melatonin I'm off it's it is a i as soon. as I started taking it I was like I get. why Michael Jackson had a guy with like. an IV in his arm I'm like no that was a. whole other level man that's like prop. what was it propil propil it was propil. but you start to like dude it's like. you're just sitting there reading a book. and all of a sudden the Melatonin just. starts to like weigh you're like a stone. statue and you're just like did you uh. read about this Matthew Perry thing. oh it was so [ __ ] up Perry uh so I.

mean it's really sad I read his book. actually after he died and Perry was. obviously everybody knows he was a drug. ad but you know it's uh his parents it. turns out his mom was like the press. secretary for Justin trudo's dad when he. the Prime Minister yeah he was actually. and apparently beat the [ __ ] out of. Justin Trudeau when they were kids which. is why Matthew Barry beat up Jus Matthew. Barry beat up Jus Trudeau that's kind of. Boss yeah it is cool but so Perry it. turns out when he was like a really. little baby and he was crying his. parents would give him like benzos it's. like benzo dipine like really [ __ ] and.

he was like yeah some of my parents. funniest stories is about me as a baby. just sitting there like drooling out of. my mouth when they were plugging me full. of benzos cuz I was crying he was like. kaky and so his theory of why he's so. [ __ ] up and addicted to drugs was. because at a very early age that he had. benzos and he talked about how the very. first time he ever felt like anything. was good in this world was when he was. drunk at 14 years old and that was the. rat race and then he becomes a [ __ ]. 100 millionaire Cent Millionaire. whatever from friends and that's why you.

can see his weight wildly fluctuate on. the show cuz he was either drunk or he. was on pills or he on oxy but dude the. the K the thing is with Perry is he died. of a ketamine overdose I believe and. they uh Los Angeles District took. attorney filed this case against a. so-called like ketamine Queen and they. have text messages in there of the. doctor and the girl who was selling him. all this illegal ketamine being like how. much can we take this Rich [ __ ] for. you know charging him thousand of. dollars per hit of ketamine of which.

they're buying it's like not very chill. ketamine Community deeply exploitative. [ __ ] like really bad horrible I have a a. lot of people are really into ketamine I. have a very kind of like weird thing cuz. I knew a lot of evil hippies who were. likey they got like addicted to that. [ __ ] they used to call they used to call. it hippie heroin called khole right. khole well dude before it became. mainstream it was known like people like. oh it's hippie heroin CU they would like. nod out what does it do cuz I thought. that it helps but there's the depression.

as there's like the therapeutic aspect. and apparently he'd been having ketamine. in a therapeutic setting but then I. guess he got addicted to that and that's. why he died in that hot tub man because. yeah dude and it was like his assistant. his little drug assistant they were. working to procure him drugs and charge. him thousands of dollars cuz they were. ripping this guy off that's not right. they it's called cying someone out. they're cying him you Tre them custy. prices yeah it's not a good thing to do. but yeah I I've heard people who swear. by it they're like if you do like cuz. you can do like you know they like they. make like little L and and stuff so you. could like lay there my brother's all.

about it he's like you lay there he's a. big K guy gu big Special K guy he was. really selling me on it and it was like. you know I'm like and I get like if. you're laying there it's like a 30. minute ordeal you come out of it he's. like it is it's good it's like you know. blah blah blah but then there's doctors. who like will prescribe you a little bit. like you can just kind of have it to. kind of like cuz you can either like get. into a khole or just kind of take the. edge off I knew like these dudes that. would just snort K constantly but if you. snort too much then you you'll just be. sitting there like the other K that I. see signs for everywhere and I actually. don't know what it is this is it katom.

what is katum it's you see signs for. this everywhere CBD you sell katum I. don't know a single person's ever used. katum I don't know what katum is I just. know it exists but it's everywhere it's. literally everywhere it's every gas. station in America gas stations sell. like drug like full on they sell drugs. or you can sell weed legally at gas. stations now it's dude they did it it's. the the hemp farm bill allowed thca uh. which is weed the active ingredients THC. is that the same as uh was it spice or. whatever those no it's dude spice is a. synthetic so it's like if you take you.

know Delta 9 tetr hydr whatever it's. called there's the exact molecule that's. illegal spice is like let's remove a. couple carbon molecules and like a. hydrogen and now it's like very similar. but it's legal because it's not. technically the same sub it's like an. analog or whatever you want to call it. sure sure sure so what katom is well. with the thca stuff it's like it th like. weed picked off the plant is thca cuz. there's a carbon molecule that's why if. you have to make brownies you have to. heat the weed up to DEC carboxilate it. and that's like T is illegal but THC is.

legal so now you can grow hemp which is. just weed yeah with thca which is just. THC and it's legal and you can sell it. at a gas station it makes it's. completely schizophrenic it makes no. sense it makes no sense but I mean I. think it's sick you can mail it right to. your house but really oh yeah you can. just get it mailed right to you are you. a big weed guy I was for the longest. time I can smell weed in here you know. it wasn't me okay it wasn't me I know. you hate it it wasn't me that was you. bro you were blazing me and Saga blun. dude I like don't put misinformation out. there right. the moment my moment I came down here my.

nostrils flared I didn't want to say. anything but I did suspect you I'm not. going to lie I immediately suspected you. I was a big weed guy since I was like in. high school through college but you quit. right so it's a success story I I cut it. out but here's the thing it becomes too. much like especially when you have kids. it's like I just can't I can't be high. like can you tell that to more people. yeah some people claim but like for me. personally it's like having like a like. um like a weird panic attack at a play. ground not serving your family oh [ __ ].

dude I got to be brave for my daughter. everybody says it's chill no it's chill. dude it's totally chill dude the thing. is the weed's different the weed is so. strong now thank you please different. dude I have and I've dude I've literally. I I was selling weed from 2008 uhuh up. until whatever pretty embarrassingly. recently but. the whatever I don't remember call 91 pH. maybe 2009 is weed legal in Philly I. knew a guy who got it's totally it's uh. medical okay I knew a guy who got caught. with Coke in outside of the you know.

whatever uh Delaware County uhhuh and. apparently they the Del or like whatever. Township police called the Philadelphia. PD and they're like we caught this guy. with cocaine we also think he's been. buying weed from Philadelphia uh and. dude the philia PD just went hung up on. he was in the room he was like in. trouble for I mean to be fair they have. like actual problems murders and and. they were just like he's like dude they. the Philip PD hung up on Township. Police they're like dude we don't care. about that but it is with the dabs it. has become drugi so I like watched weed.

develop for years like very close to it. and it was like uh it became a thing. that was like dude this is like dude. like you you know it was like everyone. talks about this like in the 70s it was. like 7% THC and you get like 14 15 was. like Wow dud it's like 30 some of them. are like 28 to 30% it's too much and. they also the percentage was that are. sold to you it's kind of like what I. just said about meaton you have no idea. whether that's correctly in there or not. so yeah let's stay off the weed let me. that. allow me a weed die tribe that's fine.

I'll give you one I what my thing is now. it's like so now they're starting to. regrow it and introduce like the um grow. it so it's like only 7% with CBD okay. and that's very relaxing and it's not as. psychoactive it just it really can like. make you it's like the Founding Father. weed that's like the Hem George. Washington smoked oh is it okay it's. very chill you're not like you might get. like you know well he was doing opium. too do you think other people was he. doing opium of course they all were. doing opium back then that's how the. painkillers happen true I guess the. Forbidden part of the 1900s and nobody. ever talks about the shocking number of.

opium and cocaine addicts that were up. until like the. 1920s a incredible amount of society was. addicted to Morphine opium cocaine you. could get it readily across the counter. uh a lot of the doctors were going to. prison because they were Coke addicts. and they were prescribing cocaine to. different people it's actually pretty. wild yeah yeah I think you can get it in. prison you can get like opium in prison. in like the 20s I think you could. ordered on commissary wow I think so I. just read I read a book about like an. old uh like a burglar from like bad way.

to spend the time you know you're. already locked up yeah you just you. could just gobble it up you could just. take yeah exactly op you could just. gobble it up I think I think it was like. either the guards were selling it but I. I remember the guy was saying in the. book he just ordered some opium from the. it wasn't illegal for for a long time. yeah I mean it took a long time because. there was a lot of there the same. problems we have now opium addicts at. the time that it's like for a while. they're in opium they can't afford opium. you start robbing people to pay for your. opium and that's like they're like okay. we got to get rid of this yeah this is a. problem dude the katum now is is a it's.

not what is it is technically an OP it's. a plant it's a natural plant but it has. this is what they say about it's natural. it's natural yeah yeah it's natural what. do you just talk about oh the cross. players with this 30 40% now it's like. that's not [ __ ] natural exact As. Natural as the red tomato in a grocery. store I totally agree I I think they've. totally they've ruined weed now it's. called type two gabis they're walking it. back and I think that cuz dude I. couldn't I would just like freak out I'm. like this sucks this isn't fun at all or. I do think though and this is like a uh. it's I do like saying this to people. people get very like Bully is with weed.

they'll be like dude [ __ ] 5 milligram. I can take a 50 Mill it's like it's cuz. you're a dumbass you don't have anything. going on in your brain so you're it's. like you've actually cooked so much of. your IQ off that you no longer have the. IQ to understand I'm say naturally. they're a dumbass always been people can. do like 200 milligram Edibles it's like. yeah cuz you're a [ __ ] dumbass you. don't have anything going on in your. mind you're just sitting there like like. like a dog gets a browny you're just. kind of. like or you metabolize it differently I. don't know okay yeah do snag people with. the natural stuff but it's like it.

mimics opiates so people will use it to. get off of like you could be sick from. like methanone heroin if it was a plant. but it also is different like if you. take a little bit it's energizing if you. take a lot it's like you ate like four. perco setes get it man dude and people. get addicted to it man no no I do know. that that's why I brought it up because. there is a lot of this weird stuff that. like katom uh obviously weed now with. the mass legalization and nobody ever. talks about you know if you look at the. weed graph like over 20% of weed users. are using it on a multi-a basis so that.

is like imagine if 20% of people who. drank alcohol drank like straight liquer. all day every day that's not even close. what is the percentage of people who. drink alcohol daily who are daily. drinkers I think it's like s to 8%. actually by the way I'm not putting. alcohol off the it's really bad people. who are alcoholics it ruins your life. you're you know it will kill you early. there's all this stuff and actually Weed. and Alcohol almost all vices actually uh. have the same effect where between like. seven it's like the parto principle.

where 7 20% can be responsible for 80%. and So 20% of weed users consume almost. all of the weed and because they're. using it every single day and it's. extremely high THC and it's psychoactive. uh anybody who knows anybody who's ever. owned a liquor store it's like the vast. majority of your sales are going to the. same like alcoholics honestly it's. really sad and then gambling is the same. way like a huge percentage of Casino uh. rures like you know people go to Vegas. and they have fun but like if you have. ever spent time in a casino like the. people that come every single day they.

just like pissing their livad that's the. saddest part like that is really sad. it's so I when you see especially the. old people there and you're like damn. your kids stop talking to you you've. worked your whole life you do you have. sports gambling uh advertisers do you oh. big time yeah oh do you okay you can. talk whatever you want all right well. I'll say it it's on Free Speech you. think I'm going to fre speech sorry. DraftKings and FanDuel and uh all these. other people those okay good all right. well we've definitely had that before. say whatever you want okay all right I'm. not worried about that well I don't want. to get you in trouble but you know get.

me in trouble I I have become totally. convinced by I put uh cards on the table. I actually like to go to the casino I. think casino gambling is really fun but. I think it's very important that I have. to go to the casino to a physical. location the stats right now on Sports. gambling it's just like weed all vices. disaster if you look at the amount of. money that is being sucked out of. people's pockets it's horrible so in. this in September in New Jersey alone. New Jersey betters lost $200 million.

gambling online in full online gambling. they lost 400 million that were gambling. on Sports and a total of 900 million in. a single month of September just if you. include also the casinos so you can see. that almost half of the money that New. Jersey betters lost by the way jersey's. not that [ __ ] big so we just talked. about a billion dollars that got sucked. out of the market people are addicted to. sports Gambling Man it's terrible and. the other thing is if I studied I I went. and I read a little bit about how. casinos operate and Casino profits like. the amount that they take is called the. hold like on a game and the hold for.

DraftKings FanDuel and all these others. is way higher because traditional. gamblers and casinos they'll bet the. money line or they'll bet the spread but. these retards on Sports gambling are. buying and doing all these parlays that. get algorithmically pushed you have no. [ __ ] chance of winning your parlay. sorry sorry you're not going to win your. parlay um and it's don't ask me check. the stats and look at the profits for. where all these people are coming from. so dude Mass Sports gambling has been a. [ __ ] disaster like you've seen domestic. violence that's gone up in the places.

where it is bankruptcies are up you're. seeing a huge amount of credit card debt. 25% increase amongst the people uh where. it is legal and and actually I just read. an article about Brazil yesterday where. basically it's a social transfer program. where the government is cutting checks. to working-class people those people are. gambling almost 40% of their paychecks. away on a consistent basis so it's like. a mass wealth transfer that's happening. right now and uh yeah I mean sad because. you can do it online just imagine if you.

could take your phone out and there was. a app on your phone where you could. drink alcohol do you know how popular. that app would be imagine or see naked. girls yeah oh yeah well that's a we'll. get to that next we're going to come. next this is going to be the kill droy. podcast but imagine if you could like. suck marijuana from an app that was out. of your phone EV people will be addicted. that gambling is honestly worse a double. addiction cuz the phone's addictive. Addiction on top phones and you have.

money that is now at stake every single. state where this has happened has been. an absolute Nightmare and you know if. all you have to do the thing is is that. the gambling companies legally they have. to disclose all of this so all you have. to go do is go and read their profit and. loss statements and look how much of. this is coming from the parlay bets it's. the vast majority of their profits and. yet you idiots keep signing up for it. and uh I get that it's fun but it's not. funny whenever your wife is like hey. baby can we buy these uh be Ares for our. child and you're like I actually pissed.

it all the way on a par last night and. you know now you have guys who are you. know you've seen this explosion and. people like I'm gambling on uh women's. softball or in Korea and I'm like bro. you have a problem you have a problem. they that's always been people like. that's a degenerate Behavior like World. Little League World Series like. you're you are a de bro and this is okay. this is my case I think gambling should. be legal I think but it should only be. in casinos because one of my favorite. Parts about going to the casino is you. meet the characters right you go to the.

crafts table and you see a guy who. hasn't showered in three days and he's. got his colostomy bag on and by the way. he will teach you how to roll the dice. and so shout out to that man for showing. me showing me how to do it but seeing. him I'm like I don't ever want to be. even SE in the same like Universe of. like whatever this dude is but you can't. see that when you're on the couch you. don't understand you're the sucker last. thing on this that I found out from Nate. Silver's book is that if you are any. good at sports gambling you're banned. and so that's kind of [ __ ] up so if.

you win consistently on DraftKings or on. FanDuel they will cap your bet size to. like $2 they're like oh you're allowed. to bet $2 14 [ __ ] yes and but you. know why and then people are like I'm. actually really good at sports gambling. I'm like oh how you been on the app. they're like three years I'm like you're. not any good at sports campling I'm like. it would have baned your ass that's. everyone know I'm I'm like breaking even. basically it's like than [ __ ] that. it's like well first of all you need to. win 52% of your bets just to beat the. house because 2% is the viig that goes. to the house but then over that it's. like the look you're not winning if.

you're still gambling consistently on. the apps you have not won and they're. you're the sucker that's just you they. should do an easy amendment to this that. wouldn't be such a money suck is that. when you lose your gambling money it's. held from you for six months they get to. make money on the interest and then they. send it back to you so you're like that. be nice momentarily penalized I just. read in New York uh I mean why would. they do that they would be like [ __ ] you. over keeping all how about we keep all. of it and make interest these guys are. making the biggest killing in the planet. and like the best part is all the states. are doing it too because they want the. money but the thing look they're going.

to pay for it because it's one of those. where you're getting this fake tax. revenue but yeah you know you have to. come and send cops to Johnny's house. because he went [ __ ] broke and he. beat up his wife or his girlfriend or. whatever you're paying for that you know. he blowing off some scene. parl parlay goes down he's going to. house uh one of those plastic bottles of. whiskey from Costco and uh we all know. what happens next it is weird that like. when like it's like when jobs are scarce. like just people just end up beating up. girls like if there's not good stuff.

going on people like well I guess I have. to beat up a girl now it happens across. like every culture it's every culture uh. actually a lot of people got mad at me. on the show because I was talking about. it was during one of our immigration. debates I think you talked about it a. little bit actually on your show uh and. uh and I was just like look and by the. way just full disclosure I married into. an Irish family from Philadelphia all. right so I I uh I have no discrimination. against the Irish but what I'm saying is. back in the day uh I think it was. reasonable to be like well you know all.

these people are coming over here and. they drank a lot of whiskey and so. here's the nobody under knows this the. very first thing that women did whenever. they voted was ban alcohol that's why. the temp the temperance movement was. entirely driven by women and if the. reason why is cuz they were getting the. absolute [ __ ] kicked out of them by. their drunk ass husbands who are. drinking a liter of whiskey per day on. average to deal with you know the the. Industrial Revolution all this but it. was also let's let's be honest was part. of their culture right and so but and so.

that that just people don't forget is. like that for some reason it's intrinsic. like alcohol gambling and beating the. [ __ ] out of your wife it's it's just a. package deal it's one big thing you are. signing up for that you are 100% so. don't in yeah it's just impulses ruling. the roost and then eventually the. curtain closes and you're like yeah well. really really what I think it is is just. somebody for the first time is showing. the reality of what you've done where. you can rationalize your parlays away. you can rationalize all this but the. very first time like I just said we're. like hey can we pay to go see I don't.

know like I want to go see my mom next. week or whatever can I get a FL they're. like no we literally don't have any M. yeah and or the ultimate being like I. told you the Chiefs weren't going to. kick a shut the [ __ ] up you didn't know. that it well is funny there is a huge. cuz you know my whole I'm all like Irish. Catholic out and it's like like we. seeing someone fall at a wedding I'm. like it's like it's so normal and like. my wife would like cry she like that's. not right I'm like that's so sad I'm. like dude. family are not like people fall at. weddings it is what it isop being baby a.

really funny tweet like you know I uh I. I left Dublin and I moved I forget where. they moved like somewhere in South. America or something and they're like. and what I thought was we were all. having a good time it turns out we're. just crippling. alcoholics yeah like family beach trips. were just like adults hammered for seven. days and I'd just be like all right then. the kids would get hammered they would. pass out Beach culture is weird it's I. tell you this I had no exposure to it. cuz I grew up here uh but yeah I went to. like I think to raob which is like the. nice Beach right but even then I'm like.

man these ladies are hammering Tios at. like 9:00 a.m. in the morning I'm like. there's some crazy [ __ ] going down Beach. culture is like getting it's like quiet. it's not like as like cool like. Margaritaville just people just quietly. quietly DJ my un yeah my uncles would be. like they would old joke they' be like a. man who's going to crack the first one. they I don't give a [ __ ] I'll do it just. crack of course light now they don't let. you drink on the beaches like that. really yeah they're tiing L of people. doing it well in the do in the Solo cups. that's I'm saying they used to and. they'll still come around and police you. at I grew up going to Sea a and you dude. it was just beers whatever really now.

it's like you have to have a cup and. they'll come around if they if you have. alcohol in your cup they'll write CU. they can just write you a fine CU. everyone's going to drink on the beach. of course they are yeah see see and this. is where my like nanny State instincts. I'm like all right well [ __ ] off all. right they people are also on the beach. and that's just a money grab for what we. need rules but really what it is is like. we just need a better we need a better. culture around this stuff because no you. we just got to acknowledge the downsides. right that's that's all I'm asking. everybody's asking like sports gambling.

is the greatest thing ever it's about. Freedom you're going to get and look at. their ads right they're like you're. going to get rich you join free $15. we'll give you $500 five bucks $5 a $500. deposit like I'm like once again bro. like have you ever been to a casino that. [ __ ] doesn't get built based on winners. like 99% of the people walk out of there. are [ __ ] losers the odds that it are. you is almost 99% so I think the. gambling companies would be happier. doing this cuz they they do do that. little disclaimer like by the way guys. if you know if in case you yeah that's. mostly [ __ ] and a lot of it is. because they're uh required by the state.

to put it in there and then what the. states do is they take part of these. losses and they fund these gamblings but. it's like you are the rece look The Rise. in sports gambling addiction has created. the need for these gambling addiction. Center so it's like just don't have it. in the first place the weirdest part. about gambling addiction is that it's. not even about winning or losing like I. I for I read they like when they lose. that's that's the craziest part they. love it when they lose or it's more like. the flow state of just being like it's. not the winning or losing. going and just your brain Focus again I.

get it I like it I love to play I don't. like to gam never I'm just filled with. anxiety the whole time when I I love. games of chance poker is more actually I. think I could justify poker because I. wouldn't even really call it gambling. although it is technically like kind of. a game of chance but there's a lot of. strategy and obviously like the famous. rounders quote it's like the same 10. people end up at the finals for a reason. it's not a game of [ __ ] chance. whereas if you go to Blackjack. competitions or B Rock competitions. [ __ ] you get lucky right that's how. it works I see the appeal of both but.

there is something I this is where I'll. flip the script man the magic of the. cards like when the bakara thing like. you're like nine nine n n you're just. sitting there that moment the. anticipation and it's fun and when you. hit it oh my God it's so fun it's. unbelievable also i p i play like $15. tables in Charlestown West Virginia next. to toothless Chinese women who are uh. getting their Chinese Ash on my I prefer. honestly I'd rather be around them I. love shout out to the uh yeah you always. want to gamble with Chinese if you're.

playing bakarat Chinese and Vietnamese. they know what's up that's a good idea. that's a good call and the less teeth. they have the more the more good at the. game they are they got patience they. they have all these superstitions about. dragons and and colors and that's the. thing though man cuz I was like sitting. there one time uh backstage at a comedy. show and they were like playing dice. like in the green room as like this. little box and I was like it is just. people interacting with magic people are. tracking gambling it's it's it it's just. it's magic it's like a Divine thing. you're like and everybody that craps is. also definitely most fun in the game in. the casino although it is minus EV every.

single bet on the on the craps table so. but when you play the magic of it is. it's a crowd's game because and I love. craps gurus right like I was talking. about the diabetic guy and he's like. he's yeah he threw it over here threw it. over here it's like the first time. throws to the right he's going to roll. seven which means we all get [ __ ] so. he was like he's like he about to roll. that take your bet off and I was like. all right got it got it he was right I. was like dude I my only time they know. something my only time playing craps a. guy was like just do what I do and I was. up $1,300 very quickly. [ __ ] very quickly and I was just like.

playing higher Stakes than I am I I was. just drunk to like just F and then I got. cocky I was like I know what's going on. as soon as I started doing my own bets I. was back down to 600 I just picked it up. I was like thank you sir and just walked. I was like I'm [ __ ] he left up that's. you know that's I will do that I'm. ruthless at a casino if I win a 100. bucks I'm out I'm like get me the [ __ ]. out of here I just won 100 bucks it. could be 200 that's to me I'm like I get. so disgusted when I lose feeling I get I. just I'm like I think about just just. like taking like the time I spent into.

like work and life especially when I was. like just working a job where I was like. I could be like oh that was a day of my. life yes and I would just think of that. just getting like sucked into a vault. with just a huge chamber M pay for free. drinks for these fat alcoholics like it. would K me sitting in the slot machine. like no it would [ __ ] kill me the. worst part is if the I I don't really. gamble much anymore but it was like when. I first did it I was in Vegas for my. cousin's bachelor party and he was like. you know do this do that and I won the. first four times I gambled I won every. time what game was it Blackjack and I.

would just win I win like very high. variance game though that's the problem. you get [ __ ] so easily dude I win like. $200 and I'd win 200 and I'd just get. right the [ __ ] out and I would spend all. my my code was every every dollar I won. gambling I'd spend it on everyone around. me immediately oh it worked you got to. spread the love you got to get the juju. you need the luck just exactly and then. like I tipped the dealers heavily and. then like I like was like I think I'm. good at Blackjack and I instantly lost. like $700 so so fast dude oh yeah the. fact 15 minutes I was just oh yeah. that's that's what they do cuz it's a. high variance game and they know they.

can wipe you out way before you're going. to wipe them out so what they want to do. is just deal all those hands per hour. and uh already Blackjack I think. Blackjack is a 5149 game I'm pretty sure. even with perfect Bas were you playing. basic strategy like perfect no idea the. [ __ ] I was doing there was a guy yeah no. idea and there be guys like dude you got. to hit and I'm like no oh yeah I'm sure. they get mad at you actually if you. don't play basic strategy correctly they. because if you [ __ ] it up you're going. to [ __ ] the whole shoe up for the entire. table so they got very upset I they were. very they were displeased with me but I. was like bro this is not my problem. we're not on a team you're not sharing.

your money gamblers know this this is. Gen pop. [ __ ] this gen poop [ __ ] i' like dude. we're not on a [ __ ] team we're not. putting this money this is my call no. but it is a team because if you [ __ ] the. math up then he's going to hit it he's. going to get the wrong card because he's. playing math and you're not and so what. screws but Dana White has a theory yeah. Dana White is like sometimes you got to. go to war with the shoe and you got to. you got to he's like you got to turn. basic strategy on the shoe I was like I. don't really think that's how math works. but I mean he's super rich so he doesn't.

care yeah I heard he likes to gamble oh. he's heavily me and my friends who like. to go to the casino we will hype. ourselves up with Dana White Clips yeah. yeah it's just like cuz he has uh he has. like a Love of the Game like he he he's. like he's like you know I'm rich as hell. I can get on the Jet and I can go. anywhere else if my kids are gone I'm. going to the casino yeah he's just like. that's what he's like that's what I do. it's what I do it's scary once you're. that rich you have to play with big sums. to excite yourself he plays for for. Millions like I think he he said his. dream is to play $1 million per hand on.

bakarat a million dollar a hand he said. I think the highest he's gotten is like. 300,000 to be fair one of the reasons. they probably won't let him and that's. one of the reasons I like bakarat is. bakarat is an actual 50-50 game thought. the house just like 05% so you actually. have pretty I mean you have like good. odds but like better than [ __ ]. Blackjack any of these especially crap. crap's a [ __ ] show it's most fun game in. the casino but every single one of the. games like I said is minus EV you're. almost certainly going to lose money. like whenever you play especially. thetimeline so if you do win like just.

get out of there if you're up like if. you have 100 and you won 200 get get the. [ __ ] out out immediately same with. roulette do not play triple zero. roulette that is the biggest scam in the. entire casino which triple zero so uh on. roulette you know they if you could just. bet black or red the way that the house. has its Edge is in the old days they had. a green zero so after a while the casino. execs were like what if we had two zeros. we like maybe these idiots in Vegas and.

you know people are drunk and they're. like oh there's only two zeros I don't. even think about the zeros the math goes. from like 49% or whatever to like the. house Edge goes from like 1 or 2% to. like 7% and then after a while they. couldn't add three zeros so they added. like whatever the casino no they added a. third one so they go zero then double. zero and then they have like the MGM. logo on the wheel so now the edge is. like 11% I thought you were saying they. add it one Z One Z and then a third but. it was a double zero no no so there's a.

zero then there's a double zero and then. there'll be so like MGM or Caesars. orever you're just pissing your money. away like people you know you know you. know there's the meme it's like if you. win you're like put it all in black or. whatever like well check the zeros. because if there's triple zero you're. [ __ ] all right like you have not good. odds dude that's the you know what I've. done though with with uh poker not poker. um the last couple times I've been in a. casino environment for like standup or. something a lot of times they give you. chips so something I I've had fun yeah. they'll be like they'll give you like a. couple just let me know the dates I'll.

come with you they'll give you they'll. give you like a hundred bucks they'll. give you like a $100 oh man we you could. break that down we turn that yeah we. could turn it into 150 yeah yeah we turn. it into 150 dude what I started doing is. when they give me chips I put it on I go. to roulette or Blackjack I put it all on. one hand and if it wins I give it to the. dealer so here you go I love that kind. it's kind of and if I lose I go hey man. you know whatever feels good that does. yeah I mean they make dude you know the. people they have to deal with like what. a shitty job like I'm sure they make a. lot of money some at least some of them. but probably the good ones but I can't.

imagine you're dealing with the absolute. like dregs of humanity especially like. at you know at their worst like [ __ ]. up and like being like I hate that too. when people get mad at the dealers and. they're like it's your fault like you're. not that gu sucks I'm just like dude. [ __ ] you but then you also don't really. want to do anything because you're like. this guy's kind of. crazy so I'm not I'm not going to be a. whole white night like you put your. hands on maybe but like you know up. until that you're like like can we get. security over here something yeah dude. it's it's uh I've never got bit by the. gambling bug man I I I tried to be a.

bookie for a while whoa I tried and it. was just like yeah but how where were. you getting your lines. from oh I it was like my friend knew. another book it was like a sub bookie. thing where I was like sending them kind. of just bets basically but it was my job. to like collect them all really it was. just my friends it just my friends and. then like but what about when they don't. pay so here's what happened they were. like I don't watch sports like that so I. didn't know what the [ __ ] was going on. so they would just if they lost they. would call my and they I like they would. just leave me voicemails all weekend. being like put up put it and they just. kept doubling down doubling down. doubling down and then eventually like.

some of my friends owed me money and I. just got to the point where I was like. I'm not taking your money for this and I. just like told the guy I was like I'm. I'm not doing this anymore I just felt. bad like if you like sell something to. somebody yeah that's like yes you gave. me that but to be like yo the Bears lost. you owe me $250 just I was like and you. actually have to collect it too yeah and. I was like I don't want to do yeah. exactly that's the big thing man I don't. know yeah I mean East Coast G Sports. gambling culture has always been there I. don't know I mean I grew up here I don't. remember thinking or hearing like other. I guess I grew up in a Bible Belt area.

so I'm they wouldn't be doing it but I. don't remember a lot of money changing. hands on college football but now these. days college football is actually even. more where the action because apparent. it's like there's the mismatches or. whatever there's like underdogs and you. know for somebody who hates gambling I. know way too much about gambling I had. it's. relationship that and weed too you don't. know a lot about weed you don't know a. lot about weed though I don't know a lot. about the experience of weed but uh I've. have you ever smoked weed um I think I. smoked weed when I was very drunk when I. was in college once and that's pretty. much it that makes sense that's fair.

yeah what' you blaze uh I don't know I. don't know dude you're at a. partybody passes you whatever it. probably was fake it was probably like. not even marijuana it was like. somebody's grass that he had boughten. off of somebody else and got ripped off. dude the K2 is big in prison that's like. the stuff you're SP and that [ __ ] I. have friends that are like lose their. minds is that right yes I have these. guys you know do anything like speed. balls and [ __ ] I have friends that are. like bro the K2 [ __ ] up really you're. in jail you're in like the county jail. you just blaze K2 and have like an.

absolutely satanic experience he's like. dude it's for real like terrifying I. think I saw some videos about that um. for some reason my YouTube feed has been. pushing me a lot of prison. content you can go down a serious Rabbit. Hole prison prison tube shout out to. Johnny Mitchell by the way the connect. you should have him on your show. actually what he do he's a comedian he's. like 67 but he does this show called The. Connect where he interviews he when he. went to jail as a weed dealer and um he. interviews like other people who were.

drug dealers and then also talks about. their prison experience so I actually. did a show he's an inter he actually. likes politics that's why uh we talked a. little bit but some of his content is. really good dude it's the best he. interviews like you know like highlevel. drug kingpin and he would be like tell. me about the story but then also like. what was it like to be in federal prison. or whatever uh what a nightmare dude I I. just finished a book about an LSD dealer. who got caught in the early '90s so he. got sentenced for like 20 years for it. never even got caught with acid they it.

was just all he was doing. Western yeah exactly got a conspiracy. charge 20 years and it was during he was. in jail during the race riot like the. crack laws sure and he had a altercation. with a lieutenant like one of the guards. and uh he was a white guy and when the. crack riots happened it was more it was. just black inmates having riots or doing. riots and the lieutenant was like he was. he inited the riot sent him to [ __ ]. Marion which is like a super Max and he. had to do I think like three years in. marrying before he he ended up only. doing five years out of the 20 years.

well I think everyone likes prison. content because it's like what would I. do EXA exactly exactly I thought about. that too I'm like well I'm not white not. black not Hispanic everything's you'd be. another you're another that's what it's. called but how many are others are there. the other Indians in prison going to be. like doctors for Medicare fraud you know. like hello doc you. know I think it's called others I think. you're your Tech it's like Inuit Indian. Inuit yeah it's like actually probably. pretty good right they can fight exactly. pretty Jack your numbers your numbers.

are not great no it's not good so yeah. it's I think it's like I dude I got so. deep into prison [ __ ] but it's like yes. so then my what would your strategy be. my strategy would be getting my parents. put money on my books right and then we. pay the others for protection that's the. big thing you can do my plan was always. to pay the Muslim Brotherhood oh you can. pay the Muslim Brotherhood to protect. but then it's like yeah it is like. racial but I could fake it and I could. just grow my beard and say that I was a. Muslim right yeah you can get good you. can get the Muslim diet too oh oh you. have to answer the Hal food is better.

yeah people do the Kosher diet that's a. big thing really if you can prove like. you're Jewish and you're allowed to. switch your religion every like six. months or so to get a different diet I. swear to God I read that Ramsey Yousef. who was the uh he was the World Trade. Center bomber the 93 bomber he he. apparently stayed in his cell for like. 10 years straight whenever uh cuz he. refused to do a strip search because he. said it violated his religion but then. apparently he was like okay I'm now. converted to Christianity. apparently the warden and all them don't. believe him so it's set up for I don't.

really know what's going on but I think. he has started to like he's finally left. his cell after 13 years to he's a. Christian now uh well he claims he's. Christian are they going to scope out. his butthole or like he's he's like all. right I'm ready well I think you have to. do that thing where with the squat and. cough or whatever he refused to do it he. was like I won't do it so he literally. he did not leave his his cell in. supermax in uh adx Florence or whatever. for like 133 years like it was totally. crazy and f after 13 years he like I. mean understandable it's like you spent. 13 years you literally haven't you have. never laughed you're like okay I'm.

that's so impressive I would make 13. minutes and i' be like you know what I'm. going to show this guy my [ __ ] and. get over with you know they say they. sleep a lot that was the interesting. thing yep that's a big one you can train. yourself to sleep 12 hours a day but. it's like what do you do all day you. know even when you're awake like that. just sounds you work out sleep a lot and. yeah just right yeah and it's the guy in. the book I read about the LSD dealer. Joel Blazer um he was saying like he got. schooled on like masturbation techniques. whoa and like just nothing nothing hands. on he never he said he never was a punk. that was his term a punk but he was like.

going into it how like you like use a. sock and you flip it inside out so. you're hitting like more of the soft. area and then at the very end he said. you'd apply Force to the under part of. your head and he's like and it's so. funny him writing he's like my orgasms. were intense and powerful and it's like. damn yes yeah I mean that's all he's got. did you watch the show uh Escape at. damura uh it's in it's on Netflix it's. really good it was created by Ben uh Ben. Stiller and it's jav was it no benio. it's benio and then the guy from There. Will Be Blood the guy who's the twins.

any anyway Paul Dano that's his name. Paul and so those two are inmates who. like basically sweet talk this woman. this like obese but prison worker and. then they both started a relationship. with her and they get her to smuggle in. tools and then they literally tunnel out. of the prison it's a real life story it. happened in 2015 so I watched the show. it was a fantastic really good acting. and then I went the red the real story. dude it was wild like it it's it's a. high they're both in there for murder. like one guy literally murdered a police.

officer the other guy like butchered and. kidnapped an old man for money these are. like no [ __ ] Killers locked up in this. high security prison in uh I think it. was in north New York like you know. Upstate New York yeah up there yeah it. was in the anondo and uh yeah so they. were up there and they were able to get. her to smuggle in like hacksaw blades. they cut their way out of their cells. were able to make their way like through. the pipes and everything use a sledg. Hammer Hammer through multiple walls and. then cut a hole in a drain pipe or.

whatever Crawl Through the pipe come up. out on the other side call crawl through. a manhole and they were on the run for. like 23 days one guy almost made it to. Canada they shot him like 10 miles from. the Canadian border yeah one guy was. killed the other guy sorry spoiler alert. what year was this 2015 it was yeah was. like they shot him at the well I guess. yeah if he's that high-profile well they. were Trooper was like hey who are you. and he just like took off running and uh. the the other guy apparently was like a. drunk and they would find they would. find like hunting cabins and he would. just be like all right just grabbing.

whisk like a bear he was like a bear. literally like a. bear that's that's a good way of putting. it thought he's like we need the pill he. was just walking around yeah so that the. other guy left him he was like [ __ ] this. dude he's like turned into a drunk he's. never going to make it and then he's not. going to make anything of himself and so. then he got he got killed and the other. guy actually almost made it to Canada. damn yeah I know he almost I I the weird. part of the show is uh it structured. really well the first like six episodes. you're really rooting for the prisoners. and then before you get to the uh last.

episode they do a flashback that shows. what they did and you're like wait [ __ ]. these guys like this is terrible cuz you. don't know what they're in there for you. know they're in prison but then they're. like oh he literally murdered a cop and. then the other guy like kidnapped this. man and tried to extort money from him. and [ __ ] like butchered him and CAU. him up into little pieces you're like. his parlays didn't. work like we got to get this guy out of. here like this not good yo guys welcome. to the advertisement portion of the.

could have 5 lbs and you wouldn't really. you could like get locked up but you. wouldn't do like a sentence at a certain. point but that's what I've heard but. like before though like in the see like. the 2000s it started getting more LAX. more lack more LAX by the end of it. nobody was going to jail for weed they. even like the cops would find a half. pound of weed on you and Jesus Christ. and just take it make the [ __ ] out of. here how does it all work though like in. terms not the cost so were you selling. to other dealer cuz you had enough yeah. event it was like I would do both you. would like you would get like like the. way it would work is you'd have to like. I remember I like saved all my money so.

hard then I eventually saved up $1,600. and I bought a half pound and then I got. to like actually make money off of it. and then eventually I started you just. get it front it to you you like find. somebody it would front me like 30. pounds of weed yeah that is the. interesting thing I read from Johnny's. uh podcast is like there's a lot of uh. Consignment in the drug business and. then double Consignment I would get. something front it and double consign it. to other people then you have to kind of. what if he doesn't pay you and then you. got to pay the guy you tell him hey man. I'm falling on tough times that that's. the that's the thing it's like I you're. never supposed to meet that person like.

the top level person because they want. to Cape like an air of like cuz they're. going to tell the guy like you tell him. I'm like I'm [ __ ] murderer but I met. the guy really it was you know it wasn't. it were you ever physically threatened. did you ever see we I got robbed D comeo. yeah really oh yeah what was that like. what happened it was surreal it was like. so I got I got I got threatened with a. club one time that was embarrassing I. gave in to the club just outside this. guy I was like I want to [ __ ] hit you. with this and I was like like what kind. of club like a handmade Club just a. [ __ ] like a 1920s police officer. baton dude he was like but I was in West.

Philly like trying to buy he did the. right thing yeah and there was like. seven guys around me and I was like. seriously guys where are my perets and. they were like dude we'll [ __ ] bash. your brains in I was like all right you. guys can keep the $200 you win you win. this round um but yeah it was that and. then I had a guy one time he got robbed. and blamed it on me I think he just took. my money but he came out like we were in. an apartment he was like something's got. he like cocked a gun and walked towards. me and I was like oh [ __ ] that time it. was just like everything just goes super. slow I remember just being like very. slow terrified too people were like dude.

if someone pull a gun on me I'd [ __ ]. it's like I was frozen totally Frozen f. fight yeah exactly second time I you had. robbed twice oh well that time I had got. like I had already I like paid this guy. money to go get something and bring it. to me and he's like I got robbed after. you gave me the money and I was like bro. it's fine I like was like it's all good. man he's like no man this is [ __ ] up. and he just [ __ ] like cocked a gun. like walked he was like did you do it I. was like how the [ __ ] did I. oh like you set him up right I was like. why would I do that oh man whatever but.

that was the whole thing and then the uh. the second time I was in an apartment. and it was like someone had owed me a. bunch of money and I was bringing them. more stuff so I had like the money they. owed me and like about four pounds of. weed and there he was going to give it. to some other guy and then this just. dude comes up in a ski mask with the kid. who was like supposedly his customer and. the kid set it all up um but that one I. was like I remember everything slowed. down again but I was able to read their. faces and the kid I knew was very much. afraid the other kid I was like he's. pretending to be afraid and then once. the the guy with the ski mask left with.

all the money and stuff I was like you. did you did that you beat him up I. started choking him good pretty badly. and then the the kid I I knew was like. St cuz I was in like a blind rage I was. you almost you have like a gun in your. face you're terrified that's horrified I. was just [ __ ] just holding this kid's. neck like I know you [ __ ] did that. and the kid's like stop and like thank. God I was like okay yeah you know but I. don't I don't think I wasn't violent. like that though I was never that was. the only time it was all it was like. almost all my money that's crazy man how. did you get out of this what what got. you out of it cuz you.

on I wasn't on per sets I was selling. them I never you were selling per I'm. not a vice I was never a really good. Vice ridden man porn obviously true D. you were a true leech on society I was. absolutely yeah I had. no you honestly should have got to. prison I'm not going to lie I think you. owed three years of your life to the. state I think I should actually but now. I now I do service through high podcast. yeah that's right you're doing a service. but I I do uh I honestly um it's not. like a sexy tail because yeah usually. you have the Redemptive Arc of like then. I got caught but I was always I was.

pretty principled like I I remember like. I was like pills are evil I didn't know. anything about them I'm like oh these. are very addictive Coke I was like this. stuff's no good either but weed there. was a thing where it was like this is. good for people because I was smoking so. much of it I was like weed is good for. people I was like people need weed it's. good for you I thought it was good for. me you know I was obviously killing it. in life fting right people people need. to be more like you you like if you. smoke weed you can also end up and West. Philadelphia with a club in your face uh. that was for pills okay that was for.

pills we were you were high was chill. were I was high forever go I remember I. tried to start a policy with every. customer I would smoke a blunt with them. and I end up smoking like nine Blunts. and it was just how function I didn't I. wasn't functioning oh so do you still. smoke a lot you said no no now it's like. very I honestly try to um there was a. big impulsive element of it but now I. I've been trying to do it where I've. tried to do this for years where like I. almost like Incorporated it into a. meditation practice. then you get into it you're like why do. I even need that if medit you know so. that was kind of like well so now it's.

like special occasions how much better. did your sleep get so much better that's. the thing with weed you don't you can. even say like well I'm sleeping better. but your REM sleep is trash yes thank. you that's what I about to bring up. totally true there's a lot of people. there's a big scop by the weed guys who. are like oh you just smoke a bowl right. before bed and it's like actually you're. nuking your REM it's like people you. know when you get on an airplane and. people are like just going to have a. glass of wine just to go to bed I'm like. actually you're way shittier sleep yeah. it's like you're actually not sleeping. at all nobody wants to hear. semiconscious but nobody wants to hear.

this I tell people all the time it's. like and the weed does [ __ ] up your REM. sleep you don't dream you don't dream. you don't dream and everyone knows when. I stop smoking weed I have crazy dreams. like that's cuz you're REM rebounding. interesting same as alcohol oh dude it's. yeah it's like I I was completely like. um when I was younger also I was making. a living off it I'm like weed is awesome. this stuff rules everybody needs this. stuff everybody needs to be selling this. stuff under me that's what happens with. Heroin though heroin if you're using. heroin you try to convince people to do. heroin because you want to start selling.

it to them so then you don't have to pay. it's really it's very that's kind of De. yes it's very very evil and you like. you're like want to inject them too yeah. I remember someone explained that to me. and I was like someone offered for me to. sell heroin I said no I said no thank. you sir evil I mean heroin's evil the. pills were evil but no one knew what the. [ __ ] they were yeah I came out of a I. got a uh is perco set the same as oxy. oxycodone yes perco set is oxycodone. mixed with a met Tylenol basically okay. so oxycodone and oxy cotton and peret. are the same thing that is it the same. strength is that no what was the whole.

like pill thing in the 2000s then was. oxy conton right or Oxycontin it was all. of them it was perets um there's a bunch. of them it's uh VI Vicodin was uh Hydro. something hydrod hydrocodone that's. right that's viin vins were less. desirable if you had vicin people like. fine but perets people wanted them and. then the oxies came out which was just. like five milligram peret 10 m you know. whatever it was oxy would have been like. 40 80 right I read a I read a book about.

it and I remember I watched some. documentary about the Sackler fan that. [ __ ] is evil man in terms of the cash. programs and those pill Mills and they. had total knowledge that's really what. led to the heroin Spike all the black. tar heroin everything these people had. no idea it wasn't it wasn't just the. sackers it was every doctor in the. country dude I got like I would give a. sore throat like from my college campus. they like do you want perets and I like. no yeah but I when I I was like 19 or 18. and I I got my wisdom teeth out and my. friend was like bro I will pay you he's.

like you'll get um you get P pills I'll. buy them off you and I'm like I'll give. you $200 I'm like what I like for sure I. hate medicine you can have my medicine. and uh dude and it was like I I remember. coming out like of my wisdom teeth in a. haze but remembering like I asked them I. was like what can I like what am I going. to get and they were like we're just. going to give you like uh ibuprofen I I. was like um I'm a real baby with pain is. there anything else I can have like yeah. we'll give you like per I think it was. like perco set or hydro and they just.

gave me a full vial and that's that was. the whole thing that set the whole thing. off because I made $200 off of it and. then once I went to college I was like I. got to find more of those things and my. friend was like yo these things are. awesome so I didn't do them interesting. and then I watched dude I watched. firsthand a whole there was like this. apartment complex at a certain time I. was getting I ended up finding like I. would get like. 2500 uh Viking in at a time and I. remember my friend would bring them into. this like apartment complex and they'. all get distributed through out there. and I dude I watch this whole like. little ecosystem of people like f. degenerate yeah that's when I was like.

oh I'm like 1920 at the time and I was. like this is [ __ ] bad no it's bad uh. yeah the pills man that that is should. go to jail dude I'm such a piece of [ __ ]. uh you just got to give back to society. I do I do though I do I'm I'm telling. you that's my I'm all service now I'm. all service all right I'm I'm I'm wildly. overpaid but I'm a wildly overpaid. servant that's all dude for real though. the thing is is like and I this is why I. like. um I've been researching the world. religions a lot there's really good book. called the religions the world's. religions by Houston Smith and he goes. into like the connective tissue between.

like Hinduism Christianity Judaism you. know everything else Islam and um I I do. like growing up in a Christian like. environment it was they don't sell it. very well to young people it's like this. sucks I'm not it's like it's just a. bunch of [ __ ] you got to take on face. value I started researching Hinduism. when I was like mean it's a classic. Stoner mov just be like so high and be. like oh dude there's nothing more. annoying than white guys who. then George Harrison and wannab just. like [ __ ] off in India they they.

literally laugh at you they're like yeah. we'll take your money but yeah but it is. a beautiful religion yes it's it's a. very and it was like for me that was it. gave me a concept of God from. researching it from that angle that I. was like oh that kind of makes sense. good yeah that's great but I like their. Rel their their relationship with. pleasure from what I've read is like. it's not as and correct me from it's not. as like forbidden it's like yeah if you. want pleasure go get it till you're. tired of it or is it kind of um well. that's hard to say man because you know. even calling Hinduism a religion. obviously it is a religion but it is.

intrinsic to the land of India and I'm. really convinced of that as in like the. practice of Hinduism like you don't go. on Sunday you're just have temples. everywhere people stop on their way and. off from work like at the end of the day. for special occasions for little stuff. like you'll go and you'll ask a blessing. it's not in the the abrahamic faiths. require like rigid practice and this is. much more like a part of daily life so. religion itself doesn't like say yes or. no or whatever about I don't know. pleasure hard work ex it doesn't like.

prescribe rules but the Indian culture. definitely also plays like a huge part. of it so I'm not really conin that's why. I think Buddhism is a religion I think. that actually is a religion and that's. one that can transpose into you know. Western Society or whatever but Hinduism. like you really you really got to be in. India if you want to be real Hindu I. think or at least practice it in the way. that it's meant to be practiced you can. try obviously and everybody can do their. own thing but there's a huge amount of. people who are Hindus who are uh. atheists they don't even believe like in.

God it's more you're saying it's more a. cultural kind of part of the Indian. culture like it really like when you're. there it just makes sense like that's. how people practice their lives like. each Village has its own deity the way. that you know there's a certain type of. blessing or they call it a Pua which is. a ceremony which is the type of Pua that. you would do for I know this El this. milestone in your life or whatever. whereas like abrahamic Fates is like on. Sunday or on Friday we pray we pray five. times a day and we do it at this time. and the you know the the whatever the. chant of the prayer and with the meat. that we eat is like this where you know.

even amongst Hindus like 40% of Hindus. are vegetarian but 60% are not so you. know there's no there's no yes and no on. life or on how to live like it's just. it's just uh very much yeah part of the. culture over 8,000 9,000 years yeah that. is uh it is it is such a funny soner. move though to be like dude I think two. mushrooms yoga it's like girls who are. into yoga it's like shut the they're. like my shasana like oh yeah that uh. that is that is tough when they start. you start you know like four Sanskrit. words and you're like Suka.

yes or the M tattoos you're just like. yes spare me man I will say dude I will. say though if from like just like a. isn't that a Hindu isn't that the Hindu. de kind of looks like it what do you got. going on over there yeah this might be. that's sript that's sript down there I. can't read it yeah oh this no dude this. was a shirt I designed and try to sell. as merch and it's a very low. chucker yeah I dude I I do think though.

there's something um religiously Glo. let's just say in the United States it's. like Christianity is it's cool it's. getting Resurgence I don't think so. statistically no yeah I guess maybe. that's just the internet memes I'm think. I think you're thinking of tradwife I'm. think of tradwife if you take a look at. the stats uh Christianity has never I. mean not Christianity religion we have. never lived in a more secular country. honestly even coming back here is. shocking like to Texas in modern I mean. I literally grew up here this was a deep. Bible Belt State that's what I remember.

and to watch it become like Cosmopolitan. is is weird honestly even when I go back. to college station I mean I don't know I. guess I just don't feel the same pre I. don't live there anymore it's is kind of. different but it doesn't just feel the. way that it did back then and in general. stats wise the evangelism uh Catholicism. all practicing religions and the rise of. people who just call themselves. spiritual whatever it's never been. higher and that's really I mean the. right-wing Trad people are the ones who. blame that for where we are but honestly.

uh kind of to make it political I think. that's why Trump is the first like real. secular president like everybody knows. like you talking about he loves yeah he. he loves it so much he sells sells a. copy but you know 30% of the people who. voted for Trump uh are literally. pro-choice like over 30% that's crazy. right if you think about it in terms of. the abortion election uh and all that so. the mass secularization of America has. made being conservative like just so. though the Texas I grew up and George W. Bush was literally my Governor that type.

of you know conservatism it's [ __ ]. gone oh yeah for sure for sure I I I. think they're well my to bring me back. to my main point I think the I do think. like there's a lot of people who have. left organized religion who are going. towards kind of spiritualism but. everyone has a I think now it's like. everyone has a very strained. relationship if people are trying to. like practice some form of like God in. their. life I do feel like researching other. religions helps people kind of like. conceptualize it because you're like. yeah I'm not going to do this but you.

can read that like yeah that kind of. makes sense if you look at like a giant. conscious and then even then I mean I I. could defend there's what what are your. stances on that what religion yeah. religion God godie God I'm not religious. at all um I mean I grew up around here. so I still have a very like side eye. view of a lot of the Bible Belt stuff um. but I I think it's good for people now. that I've been removed from it for quite. a long time there look there's you know. it's like the South Park episode about. Mormonism like look this is some bat. [ __ ] crazy stuff but the truth is like. they're living a better life than you so.

like maybe maybe we're The Crazy Ones. right you know they're the ones who. believe in Planet collab or whatever but. they have nine children they're really. happy they help each other the Mormon. church has no debt they uh make sure. that you get very cheap education at BYU. is if you stay in the faith they take. care of you they take care of each other. I grew up around a lot of Mormons there. are some of the happiest people I know. they have like multiple children they uh. settled well they seem like they're. doing like really well in life and uh. they get to you know they they have a. big Community aspect where they you. always have just dozens of people who.

share your values who are around who if. you're out of town somebody can come. watch your pets or if you need help with. your kids or whatever so like they're. the winners in life man like that's. that's the that's what people need to. take away that's that's my yeah that's. my question is like that's what I'm what. I've been trying to like read about and. like think about a lot is like what is. the grounding Force for like people's. lives and if it you know if it. dissipates into like if if there is no. that's like what religion has been. forever and now. people the anti-depressants all that. people are now like you have to like. back up the molecules in your brain.

because you're sad because your. worldview is inherently kind of Bleak. very very well said and also I mean like. wokeism quote unquote is a religion any. s being anti-woke is also a Rel politics. is a religion so religion will find a. way in its life whether you find. religion or not the thing is about it is. what I you know would advocate for is. that I think especially in big cities. and like in Elite circles there's a real. sneering at religion but they don't look. at it in the way that I just said where. it's doing quite a lot of good for. people who are in the faith and the.

community so for me I'm just like look. you know do whatever you want to do and. actually having lived my entire adult. life in Mass secular America we have a. lot of problems right like the Gathering. Place of the secular American is the bar. it shouldn't be it that you know that's. weird actually like waiting until you're. in your mid-30s to even try to start. having children and then by that time. like I I don't know I just think there's. a lot. BL they should be turning into Christ. blood there's just choices that you make. that make it all about you and one of.

the things that are really important. about religion is like actually no it's. not about you it's about other people. and so by doing that and by choosing the. secular Elite path you are literally. pursuing something that is just all. about you it's about the pursuit of your. own pleasure about your own money about. all of this but it will strip away any. of the great things in life that will. genuinely make you happy so uh if you're. not religious then you have to actually. consciously seek that out and I you know. you Pro tell you about this you have. children now right like it's probably. harder to connect and find like groups.

of other parents whereas in the if you. grew up in Texas in the 90s and you went. to church that's dusted bro like it's. day one it's so it's sold like someone. will be at your house when your wife. gives birth they will have food waiting. in your house all but if you don't have. that type of community that's really. hard they stuck the number of people. actually there's a really interesting. like American family studies uh study. that shows that the number of friends. particularly among men uh the number of. like male friends that people have has. an all-time low I think the record.

number is actually in the zero to one. category people who consider themselves. like close friends and so if you think. about it like in that Community aspect. people are lonelier than ever they're. having difficulty really finding a mate. they're really having problems in terms. of fostering close friendship so they're. doing what betting parlays on gambling. in order they just want to feel. something so they're stimulating the. brain EX that's my problem is like there. needs to be some sort of cohesive. organizing force and most of them are. negative where it's like you know again.

it's like [ __ ] you know proud boys. all that you like the things are and. it's it's not even like you know a lot. of it I think does come down to the. media because it's like you know it's. like you don't have to take your. worldview or your life prescriptive path. of the media but it's like they are. experts they are this and it is looked. upon as like this is an authoritative. source of information yeah and it's just. mean like everything you see is just. like he's a [ __ ] this guy is such a. loser let me tell you about this guy. it's on both sides yeah absolutely I. think that's bad for people mentally. like definitely but uh I will give. that's some that's a bit cope also cuz. people blame the media and it's like.

look that's what you people want like at. a certain point like it's true I could. be so much more successful wealthy and. famous if I just did that I actually am. actively giving up I'm saying that's. what I'm saying it's no I know but. that's a choice that I'm making but the. truth is is that that is what most. people want most people want to fulfill. their Bas instincts they want to have. that uh you know that dopamine Rush of. saying yeah I mean honestly Shane's bit. about the Fox News dad I mean I actually. the first time I met him I was like you. know that really is like one of probably.

one of the most important bits you've. ever done because it's deeply true it's. in the vernacular now people will say I. have a fox I have a fox it is a deeply. true like it's a bit it's a comedy bit. but that is like an archetype and and. something that really does exist like in. in American society no it is it's true. and it's I would flip it and say you. there are also MSNBC moms out there. right who are just as bad wine moms and. all that but it is a cancer on American. society but honestly that's what they. want like uh I was talking with Lex.

yesterday and I brought up one of my. favorite media quotes and it's from a. book called the loudest voice in the. room and it's a biography of Roger ales. who was the chairman of Fox News and the. Creator and he said people want to be. informed or people don't want to people. don't want to be informed they want to. feel informed and I think that is like. the most deeply true thing about media. that I've ever read yeah no that that's. true I I guess what I'm saying is is. like it's just bad it's like it's bad. because it's like it's like you were. saying there's a financial incentive to. be like a major [ __ ] which when I.

when I first saw reality TV I was like. this is bad this is going this is. creating a pathway being just a absolute. it's so bad it's so good though though. it's bad for America if you were smoking. weed back then you would have been like. what the [ __ ] dude this is so [ __ ] up. I remember I was just High watching. reality TV like this this is modeling a. type of behavior that also pays off. genuinely which Taps into people's you. know own like biological drives and I. was like this is not good CU that's. what's being modeled that's what's. you're pushed unconsciously to do and.

like you were saying like dude if you. wanted to like really Double Down anyone. any of us can do it hang couple American. flags back here and be like let me tell. you something [ __ ] I get so. annoyed be like you're a grifter or. whatever I'm like [ __ ] I'm like I could. make way more money I could gri if I. wanted to grift I would grift you you. [ __ ] yeah yeah like be like if I just. sat there and like look at these liberal. tears that are flowing from their faces. I'm telling you all the channels you put. in American flag behind you you sell. your merch hat and just like especially. for me Brown guy be like brown guy loves. Trump and all I know I know dude the.

problem is is that I get bored man I. find I find those people so utterly. boring that I have no interest in even. talking to them it's embarrassing it is. humiliating you could make a lot of. money I [ __ ] ton of money if you're. especially if you're a black black guy. is at top of the market value if you're. a black guy with a red hat being let me. tell you something it's like you'll be. famous overnight magga mimos will be. sending you five bucks a month and being. like have you seen this nice young. man but yeah I I do hope we can like.

somehow move to a something that. animates people other than you think. people will ever be animated other than. their base Instincts by the masses or. you think there will be like an actual. like gen pop no uh gen pop will always. be the same always be yeah look look. America Society these M rise of mass. media has always looked exactly the same. like people think it's worse now than it. ever was total [ __ ] uh if you go. back and you look at the yellow. journalism era like it was insane people. were people were you know slamming each. other and I mean Imagine This American.

America's news in the 1800s was. literally political like when you would. read the news you would read the. Kentucky Democrat or you would read like. the Kansas City Republican like your. literal newspaper was the party that you. supported and one of the ways that. people would get interested and. instigate Politics as socialists and. others be like we're starting a. socialist newspaper because the news. itself was a political Vector that's. crazy I didn't know that oh yeah the new. because I was totally bought into like.

dude it's never been this bad no. absolutely not it's [ __ ] uh so like. the thing is is that in the old days the. rise of yellow journalism of the penny. papers people like William Randolph. Hurst and others uh and before him like. Joseph Gordon Bennett it was all. sensationalism tabloid that's where it. all comes from and that was. overwhelmingly popular what happened is. is that the old days that we. romanticized is actually a very unique. time in American history where the vast. majority of Americans were getting their. news from the network TV so in the ' 60s. and the 70s everybody romanticizes.

Walter konai all this stuff let me tell. you something the news was just as fake. back then as it is today it's just that. thank God we have the internet to be. like no no no no it's fake and it's. [ __ ] because what so book it's a. slog but people should read it it's. called personal history by kathern. Graham she ran uh The Washington Post. she was the owner of it and her father. bought the paper and then her son is the. one who sold it to Jeff Bezos but so she. ran the paper for basically her entire. life her husband ran it then he uh. committed suicide and she took over and.

ran it for decades and if you read that. paper actually if you've ever watched. the movie The Post it's directed by. Steven Spielberg with Tom Hanks and it's. about the Pentagon papers Merill Street. plays her in the movie and it's really. like when reading that book you're like. you know she's getting politicking with. Kennedy is at dinner and he's like. giving them advice on how to write in. the paper and her husband who was her. owner of the post is friends with JFK. and he's skewing the coverage in a. certain way so everyone has this. romantic nature about the 60s and. kronite it's like no they were just as.

partisan as people are as today as. Rachel M and these people they were but. America didn't know they had much more. higher like institutional trust and. cable news exploded that obviously after. the network era but and then the rise of. blogs and uh everything but people were. really romanticized this oh the news was. fair and balance it's like no it's not. that the news is what got us into. Vietnam you know the no it wasn't fair. and balance these people were writing. columns and justifying all this [ __ ].

they knew what was happening they didn't. report any of it it was only in like. what 1968 we finally tell everybody the. truth by that time 500,000 Americans are. sitting in Vietnam JFK we used to go and. hang out and all of his secretaries. mcnamer and all these guys were hanging. out in Georgetown which is a very rich. neighborhood at their fancy ass Mansions. secretly telling them what they should. write in their papers like dude it's. it's always been like as corrupt people. didn't know it yeah I feel like Trump. did kind of crack the uh he like he like. parted the veil to be like this is.

actually a lot of this is [ __ ] the. roots of trump are uh in there's a. famous clip 2012 n Gingrich was the. Republican debate South Carolina debate. and the opening question even I will. admit it's a crazy question uh they were. like Mr Gingrich uh you're W he like I. don't know what the circumstances he's. on his third wife and he like divorced. his wife I think she was going through. cancer or something like it was terrible. it was. and it was the second time that he done. something like that anyway so like that. was the opening question and gingr is. like let me tell you something that was.

one of the most disgusting acts and the. mainstream media is a direct participant. something like that in the Democratic. party and the crap the pop as he would. say from the audience oh Roars like you. can hear it on the microphone of. like and all of that and I I watched. that clip because all the ingredients. for Trump were there the whole time it's. just like have to go and look for it. like Michelle he the first one that. tapped into that well he was the first. one who attacked his media on the stage.

and flipped the debate and made it about. them and it was a referendum it was like. no [ __ ] you actually when they and you. could see John King is kind of Taken. aack because he's never experienced this. before and now it's the norm in. Republican politics people expected at. that time it was crazy it was shocking. um but yeah I mean I watch that clip a. lot because I'm like that's that's it. that's where Donald Trump 2015 the. famous debate you know and Megan Kelly's. like Mr Trump you've called women pigs. you know he's like only Rosie OD and was. just everyone the crowd just Roars man.

and it's like that was it like that's. the moment that he won in my opinion uh. in the 2015 primary broke politics. forever but the ingredients were there. they were there funny it's funny that he. was like like that was like one of the. first dominoes that toppled the. mainstream media and he was just trying. to get a fourth wife he was just trying. to get some new he was like bro. nothing's going to stop me not the. entire mainstream media no I think what. it is is in all of this is that the Bas. has always hated the media it's just.

that the the politicians they need the. media I mean this is another like. fakeera out of all of this is that the. idea that the Republicans hate the media. like nobody craves media attention more. than Republicans specifically mainstream. media there are some good ones out there. who actually understand that the news is. bad and like don't want to give them. access but in reality like as much as. they say they hate it like they want to. be on CNN bro they like it you know they. want to go on Fox they want they don't I. don't know so speaking of the politician. stuff what so Matt Gates that's.

something I can't like wrap my head. around he got he got appointed that's. his name attorney general that's right. attorney general yeah he's nominated to. be the attorney general and what the big. the big thing about him is that he might. have trafficked kids so man that's a. weird that's a weird one the details are. very uh strange so uh and and to be fair. the doj did drop their case against so. they investigated it and they leaked a. lot of the details so he was never. convicted or even prosecuted um of any. of this and there genuinely was some. weird I I'd have to go back and look at. the details but somebody was trying to.

blackmail him for like $25 million and. that's how some of this stuff came out. but like empirically he was definitely. like hooking up with like very young. girls and like hanging out with sketchy. people and getting blackout drunk like. all while he was a congressman so uh the. detail as I understand it 2021 uh from. to now there's been a three-year. investigation in the house Ethics. Committee about Gates and his behavior. from that was in instigated by an. attorney who filed a complaint claiming. to represent an underage girl who says. that she slept with Matt Gates whenever.

she was underage now obviously though. she may claim that but as I understand. it the feds did investigate at least. some of these claims and of course they. haven't brought charges so the report. itself was due to be released uh I think. tomorrow actually when from the day that. we are taping and that report now will. not be released because what happened is. is that Gates got nominated to be the. Attorney General he resigned as the. House of Representatives so the house. Ethics Committee 2 Days Later of his. nomination was supposed to release that. but they will no longer release the. report because he's no longer a sitting.

member of Congress considering his. resignation so there's some background. uh in that's kind of sketchy yeah yeah. look I mean his behavior has also made. it a little weird in terms of first of. all just what he admitted to is wild. also why would he be appointed though it. almost seems like he'd have perhaps dirt. on djt I don't know you know what I mean. I don't think it's a dirt thing dude. Gates is just one of like he's one of. his biggest of bros yeah no not bros. he's one of his biggest Defenders on. television he's one of those people who. like anything goes like he's all in uh I. mean look it seems tactical I'm saying.

they like they abandoning Congress have. a higher job two days before potentially. the shoe drops you could read that into. that if you want but I mean but at the. same time like why would Trump go along. with that scheme then right like CU for. this Trump would have to be like okay. Matt I'll bail you out but that's what. I'm saying that's hence the dirt I I. don't know I'm I'm just wildly. speculating I'm trying to figure out why. appoint somebody with such a sketchy. record oh I mean I think think the case. is a True Believer that's what it is. he's been all in for Trump for eight. years he was his biggest defender on. television Trump loves him he always.

goes on Fox and he's always Matt Gates. is always like I'm all in for Trump to. be fair Gates is an interesting guy like. from my perspective he is generally been. anti-war like he's been sponsored a lot. of stuff with Progressive Democrats. about trying to end forever Wars he's. somebody who wanted to paren um Edward. Snowden he opposed the Julian Assa. you'll like this he's very Pro weed he's. one of the most marijuana members of. Congress I don't care I like mushrooms. but uh well well we're coming for that.

next um but uh he had uh he yeah he's. he's actually quite libertarian is the. way he's Pro Bitcoin you know he's. heterodox guy for a while so I'm. actually I'm not that you know worried. about people hate Matt Gates because you. know I mean look he's he's kind of an. [ __ ] like media wise for sure he's. got a reputation about town and he likes. to come in and he blow like he he he. likes to mouth off can we put it that. way. he's got bad like the Hans hate him. because he's he's the one who mounted. that coup against Kevin McCarthy and got. Kevin McCarthy kicked out so a lot of.

the establishment types hate him but. Trump loves him because he's loyal and. uh he wants him to like root out a lot. of the people who are in the Department. of Justice who he would see as like you. know deep state or enemies or whatever. and I honestly think Gates would do that. but I mean it is crazy because AG is. like a real dude you're the chief law. like legal officer of the United States. like you have to determine the legality. of president's actions you direct the. Department of Justice and the FBI like. what type of cases we're going to. prosecute or not like you make the call.

on some like really big decisions like. you have to write the legal. justification sometimes for what the. president is doing work with the White. House council's office I mean it is a. real no [ __ ] job like it's a real job um. and uh yeah I'm glad you said that cuz I. had that was my next question attorney. general I had to go look it up CU I was. like yo does he even have a law degree. but he does but I was like I don't know. if a lawyer you know that's [ __ ] wild. so it is about we're about to enter like. you know what's the the Senate and the. house are Republican now Supreme Court.

picks most likely uh yeah Alo and. Clarence Thomas that's right they'll. probably resign although Sonia Sodor one. of the Democrats she's 70 uh but she. does have type 1 diabetes and uh. Democrats tried to get her to resign. because they were like hey you need to. go so that Biden can somebody but she. pulled an RBG and she's like I'm not. going anywhere who yeah damn they wanted. one yeah we're like what's up can you. believe that she do these people are. such narcissists she so believes in. power and uh that and like not even.

being part I mean I'm look I don't. really care but it's more from a liberal. perspective it's like if you think this. is fascism and the end of democracy like. [ __ ] then resign like what are you. doing you're literally type 1 diabetic 7. years old and you're obese like what do. you think's going to happen look at a. [ __ ] Actuarial Table like dude it's. like it is sad though if you think about. like um even like what happened to Biden. it's like being that old and being. driven by by kind of like the power. drive until like your brain just falls. apart it's pretty [ __ ] terrible I. mean I say it's sad but it's also like.

pathetic and deeply egom maniacal and. narcissist and that at the end of the. day you know that's what it takes to be. a politician like that's the truth is uh. he by the way has been the same his. entire life so I talked about this book. yesterday with fredman called what it. takes is written in 1988 it's about the. 1988 presidential campaign that's where. Biden had that plagiarism Scandal he's. been an egomaniacal narcissist chip on. his shoulder guy for his entire life so. you know what they say about when you. get old is it just makes you more of. what you already are like you're just. more you're just if you're already an.

arrogant [ __ ] like you're just going to. be more of an arican [ __ ] when you're. old like that's that's so sad man it's. true yeah that's so sad that that was. that was my overarching point with. religion it's like you need I feel like. as a society we need a vehicle for. self-transcendence so that you don't. become a just 80-year-old walking around. demented like trying to lead the country. yeah it's I mean I at the end of the day. that's like genuinely like self idolatry. he's like I am the one I will stop. Donald Trump I'm the most important. figure nothing is bigger than me I you. know it's it's pure narcissism and he's.

chiefly responsible for both for being a. terrible president but also for the loss. of the democratic party it really I mean. it's it's crazy if I were them I would. be freaking out I'd be I would I would. be so Furious I mean nobody has [ __ ]. their party more than George than Biden. since George W bush uh and his handling. of the Iraq War yeah for sure what do. you what do you think the the future of. the Democratic part's going look because. I thought the same thing like dude if. they don't like I think they're going to. need an outsider C they're going to need. a Democrat Trum yeah that was my.

prediction I not necessarily Democratic. Trump but uh if we're in an era so for. example like Obama like rose From the. Ashes right because you know he was a. no-name Senator he gave it a great. speech no4 big [ __ ] deal okay uh uh. but then he came out of nowhere he had. anti-war credentials and Harry Reid is. actually the one who was like you should. run for president he's like you're not a. good Senator he's like you don't like it. here he's like get out of here go for. president he's the first person who put. that in Obama's mind but uh with the the. rest of them like if we look in the past.

Bill Clinton also came out of nowhere in. '92 we had 12 years of Republican rule. 1980 to 1992 it was Reagan and it was. Bush and Clinton I mean he was a no-name. governor from Arkansas but he created. this thing the Democratic Leadership uh. committee which like basically moved the. Democratic party much more to the right. and made it more of like a neoliberal. thing and that's how he was able to win. like a major victory in 92 so somebody. will come I think that person needs to. Come From the Ashes though I think.

anybody tainted by the stain of like. wokeism from the 2010s and the great. awokening onward on top of like the. Biden and all the trans [ __ ] and all. this plus you just this whole last. decade has been a nightmare right it. collapsed in on it collapsed in on. itself so anybody really tainted by that. at the national political level they're. going to have a tough time in my opinion. that's why even though I think Gavin. Newsome's very talented and I think that. Josh Shapiro Gretchen Whitmer Pete Budaj. and all these other people I think that. they you know they like to believe that.

they could overcome it and maybe right. like Trump could [ __ ] everything up and. he could be a nightmare right in terms. of his popularity and it'd be easy to. beat him anybody could but if if he. doesn't and if he governs even. reasonably well 40 50% approval rating. you're going to need somebody with like. real political entrepreneurship and. skills to be able to rise out of that. yeah and they have they kind of the. Republican side has a kind of like a I. feel like a deeper roster they could. people could tap that or also like you. know like like RFK he can like talk he's. not like like a total robot he's not. Republican right so he's uh's yeah he's.

an independent he's endorsed Trump yes. uh although I don't think RFK will ever. run again I don't think he will but I'm. saying they seem to have like a tulsy. gab like they have like a deeper roster. of people maybe that's just me because. I'm biased but it's like maybe I don't. know if anyone like bu like you saying. like these like Newsome bued is like I. really think they need a new person ABS. en you need somebody who is totally. tainted by the system um and that's. really that's what Obama was that's what. Bill Clinton was I mean the appetite for.

although I will say the appeti the thing. is about the Democratic base is now it's. rich white people and the thing is about. rich white people is they don't really. give a [ __ ] about a lot of stuff they. just want to win like I'm serious like. they are just like we want to win. they're like oh you need to say what. okay whatever you know like say it just. win so it is a little different this. time because this time around as. whatever narrative they're sold about. what will beat Trump that's who they're. going to nominate that's why they that's. why they nominated Biden they didn't. care what he stood for they were like we. need somebody we need Trump out of here.

you that's what it's going to be like. bring out the dancing black ladies they. threw they threw everything they were. like Beyonce cardi so were you as. shocked as I was that they get paid I. had no idea that these I had no idea I. didn't know I was so naive I thought. celebrities just did it because they. supported them if they didn't get paid. it man it's because they're at the Diddy. parties so like you better like you. better show my W2 it's just so weird to. be like we million dollars to Oprah a. million ion million bucks dude she's a. billionaire what the [ __ ] do you need a. million dollars for what are we doing I. mean it's a nice little treat though. yeah sure don't you already support.

comma like just just do it you know and. that's the thing is I don't think. they're getting paid to say something. that they don't already believe but if. you already believe it just do it for. free like why why would you I don't. think they believe it you can't you. can't you can't like there's no way. there's no like you know again it's like. Republicans I'm not like a a big. Republican guy but I really like zoom in. on like the liberal Democrat like the. modern liberal Democrat type it's like I. don't really see a coherent Vision at. all it's it's all it's too bought in on. the the postmodernism which is in itself.

is self-contradictory and goes nowhere. definitely so that's kind of what. happened to them they like it was their. like Trump was the rights Energizer. battery pack theirs was like the. postmodern racial power versus you know. worldview yeah it was very it's very odd. and it just it just literally collapses. in on itself and it contradicts itself. like you know there's no hierarchies. it's like well who do you prefer Trump. or well Biden well there's there are all. that [ __ ] mhm but it's like they all. they're going to have if I were a. Democrat like leading the campaign. Outsider candidate and I would come by. and be like if you're a trump supporter.

I still love you man that's all they. have to that's all they have to do. that's all they have to the whole. dictator fascist Playbook that they ran. this time that was very stupid you know. that they did so I don't know how. they're going to do it man I I really. don't uh I have confidence that they. will figure it out just because people. are too triumphalist as in I know I was. talking about the 20 8 Obama wins right. they're like we will never lose an. election again James Carville literally. wrote a book called 40 more years about. how the Democrats will be in power.

forever demographics are Destiny it's. over it's a white party and now Donald. Trump has won two out of the last three. presidential elections the last one he. won the popular vote and he won Latino. men he basically completed a racial. realignment of the US politics imagine. going back you know to 2008 and telling. me that that was only 16 years ago man. it wasn't that long ago Obama lost his. juice when he they like him out to be. like go yell at young black guys like. dude it just is like man he's sneering. just like that's the I I I have Obama.

derangement syndrome like I hate Obama. and like not for the reasons that like. white Boomers hate him we like he's. destroying this country I was working. construction when he got elected and it. was a somber day for like white yeah. like Boomer age white guys they come in. work and be like they were and they were. just mad he was a black guy that was it. it it were just they came in and they. were going. it was so it was kind of funny yeah but. yeah I I do agree I I think there's. something very Sinister about wrapping. yourself in that like cultural identity.

and I call him the Instagram president. he he's this [ __ ] you know he's just. this cultural Elite he's everything that. he supposedly stood against and the way. that he governed you know he came and he. was supposed to end the Iraq War and the. financial crisis he was supposed to. solve he [ __ ] both of those up we had. a horrible economic depression um for. that you know entire period I mean look. if you want to look at the wealth. inequality the explosion the lack of. wage growth um that all happened under.

Obama he got lucky that Mitt Romney ran. against him all the ingredients to be. able to beat him were there ramney. Romney just ran a terrible campaign and. then immigration in 2014 he over. interprets his mandate and he's like you. know what [ __ ] this I'm going to do. whatever I want on immigration and he. goes all in and he does DACA and it. honestly that is responsible for Donald. Trump because what he did is he both. polarized the liberal base on the issue. of immigration. which was amnesty first maybe border. security sometime in the future but he. also energized the Republicans who were.

like oh my god when they have power. they're going to mass legalize literally. millions of illegal immigrants and that. it leads to the 2014 uh that 2014. executive order leads directly one year. later Trump comes down the escalator and. says no we're going to build a wall and. Mexico is going to pay for it so there. are direct consequences for these. actions and immigration is the number. one reason in my opinion why Donald. Trump was elected like there's no. question what do you think about the. population collapse that's going to come. when all like the Boomers go and you. don't think you don't think we're going. to have to be just importing people uh.

no um I think that's a very convenient. explanation um I mean look at a certain. point too uh if how if the numbers dip. how's it how's it not real no what I'm. saying is that the idea that first of. all we're going to have population. collapse and we're like Japan is just. like not true but there's there first of. all but the second is there's this. presumption that the only way to do it. is to import like basically like second. class citizens from South America. years by George Freedman I have not read. that book I think I'm familiar with the. thesis I mean this is a very popular way.

that people justify like Mass migration. um first of all like there's another way. which is you could try both economic and. social incentives to change the picture. but the other thing is there's something. like really sick about this idea that. the only way to like incre that the. birth rate itself is the only thing that. matters and not like what the actual. makeup of the United States is and all. the secondary and the third secondary. tertiary effects of what Mass illegal. immigration like does to the US economy. to us Society it makes a mockery of like.

us law and like the the entire way our. immigration system works is just totally. [ __ ] up like people don't understand. like the our immigration system is. totally unique in the Western World the. entire rest of the western world has. basically merit-based immigration we are. the only country still left on family. based chain migration so the way what. that means is that so I'm a US citizen. right and so cuz I was born here I was. born here in Brian Texas uh but uh the. way it would have worked is my parents. who immigrated here their family members. have a preference in the US immigration.

system if they were able to sponsor. someone to come to America it doesn't. matter whether those family members are. are they college educated like who are. these people right like do you have a. degree like what's your job like are you. to support yourself that makes no if you. maret to Australia they're like they. have a points based immigration system. so they're like a college degree cool oh. you speak English much higher up at the. list right that's how it should work it. should be Merit based it be based upon. are you going to benefit the America now. people get very squirly about this. because it is contrary to the way that. what I talked about earlier the 1800s.

Mass immigration yeah that was my mom's. dad came remember but oh no it was the. 1900s sorry right but here's a good. quote that I heard we don't make. immigration policy for our grandparents. we do it for our grandchildren so just. because some so in the 1800s we had what. Industrial Revolution we needed a [ __ ]. ton of basically just like bodies to sit. there shovel oh you can swing a shovel. cool you're [ __ ] Slovenian who cares. whatever but that's not how the US. economy works the US economy is a. service based economy our manufacturing.

jobs are Hightech manufacturing like you. need to be able to speak English to. function in America uh 12 million people. illegally entered this country in the. last to four years the 27% of them don't. have a high school diploma in Spanish by. the way so they're barely literate in. Spanish 20 something per of them have. barely completed a high school education. by Latin American Standards or wherever. they came from and then only a small. portion are actually college educated so. look be real look at the stats what is. that going to cost the United States are.

they bad people absolutely not but it. makes a mockery of this idea of first of. all of just order like in terms of be. able to just come here no matter who you. are you just raise your hand and fake. say I fear for my life you're an. economic migrant let's all be honest and. if you interview these people they'll. tell you the same they're like came for. a job I don't begrudge you that's fine. but the point is is that you can't allow. that system to be in place where. basically the cost of the Bill of all. this is going to come down to us so we. need to dramatically shift to a to an.

actual merit-based immigration system. that's number one but two what we really. need to do is also consider after that. period of massive immigration of. European migration we had social chaos. in this country we actually were. becoming like ethnic there was a whole. War over this Teddy Roosevelt gave a. famous speech there is no h we are done. with hyphenated America and hyphenated. like you know like I'm a Slovenian. American he was like no we're all. Americans we need to be done with. hyphenation and that led to a complete.

shutdown basically of US immigration. from the 1920s up until the immigration. nationalization Act of 1965 that. immigration moratorium actually allowed. for assimilation where the term white. became popular because it's like as you. know if you read a book it ask white. Protestants were Irish people white 1920. absolutely not okay like like they like. Lithuanian they're like you're. Lithuanian you're not white okay that. was bad just so we're all aware that was. bad um and so the change in that we need. to go through that again like we need to.

completely change the way that we've our. foreign born population has never been. as high uh than previous from the 19 I. think the late 1900s right around when. we had the same immigration moratorium. we're signing up for the same levels of. problems where our heterogeneous. population is just way too removed from. each other we don't have a common Civic. understanding or any of this and the. truth is is that if you just keep. importing 1 million people for year per. year and then the vast majority of them. are illegal no disorder disorderly.

process like dude this just breaks the. Civic foundation of the country like. it's just not going to work uh and I say. this to somebody whose parents came from. India like but that's my point is I'm. here now I'm a citizen like I have to. care about my children my grandchildren. what country are they going to grow up. in yeah and it's also it's it's like so. and is kind of a [ __ ] thing to be. like well since your you know parents. came you have to just sign it's like I. change my [ __ ] mind EXA the way they. left the third world so I could live in. the first world and I can make up my own. mind the best part of coming to America. and to the West anybody who is from uh.

like a western or a non-western country. will know this in the non in nonwestern. countries you're kind of like told what. to do there's a path and there's you. know there's a CL rigid class system and. there's like this is how we live our Liv. and like that's the best part about. coming here man you can do whatever you. want you can say whatever the social. Mobility here is better than anywhere. else in the entire world dude and that's. that was the problem I went to school. for uh social work like when I went to I. got my graduate degree in social work. and uh and you would like if you brought.

up Social Mobility the teachers would. for real like be like that's a myth no. no it's not no it's not I like that's no. it's not they're like that's a myth does. wealth give you privilege absolutely but. uh actually think I read that people who. are born in the upper quintile if you. look at the across Generations after. like three generations their kids are. usually back down shirt sleev shirt SLE. Shir Shir. it does have money extreme money has a. degenerative effect like it's obviously. it's incredible you know bounty to be. born a ton of money but dude it like.

kind of warps people big one of my. favorite books is uh the Fall of the. House of Vanderbilt and it's exactly. about this and it's basically uh I think. 100 years after Cornelius Vanderbilt. died his Generations uh not a single one. of them was a millionaire not one and. the first Vanderbilt after Cornelius. Vanderbilt to make anything of himself. was one of the only Vanderbilts not to. born with money his name is Anderson. Cooper he is the first vanderbelt member. of the Vanderbilt family to not be born. with money the first one who was broke.

who made anything out of himself what. the [ __ ] yes yeah that's it Anderson. Cooper is the first successful. Vanderbilt in like 200 years since. Cornelius since Cornelius the the. Commodore Commodore commodor I I've. heard he's a vanderbelt but it's always. like he's a CIA his mother was GL Gloria. of Vanderbilt yeah and uh yeah I mean. and and you read their stories the money. just destroy them it destroyed their. family uh all of them just became like. degenerate dants who became you know I. mean they were addicted to alcohol and.

drugs and they would blow it on these. gigantic houses and uh you know they got. caught up in the British Rat Race and. they they all became dollar princess I. love the term dollar princess a dollar. princess is in the 1800s American. industrialists were Filthy Rich and the. way to have social Mobility is they were. like we need to get our daughters. married to English Lords but the English. Lords were broke and so they were like. oh we'll marry your kids so Winston. Churchill's mother she was a dollar. princess Jenny Churchill um and uh there.

the hit the Duke of Marboro I forget. exactly what his name it was another. Churchill I think it was Randolph. Churchill he married one of Cornelius. Vanderbilts I think he a granddaughter. or great- granddaughter same thing it. bailed him out so he literally he could. rebuild his house and after they got. married he was like by the way I don't. give a [ __ ] about you at all he's like I. literally don't care I married you for. your money he's like I'm just going to. go do whatever I want to do like I'm. just going to go live my life yeah uh. it's horrible it's horrible her life. ended up it was a nightmare. unfortunately for her yeah it's also.

very rigid I know if you have. generational wealth it's like you're you. have to you can get cut out of the whe. then you're [ __ ] because there's stuff. like there's all that and then you know. you have that house the builtmore down. in uh in North Carolina the largest. house literally ever built in the United. States it was built by a Vanderbilt um. you know just you read about them like. this guy would have like seven marriages. in the course of his life dude I I did. work in Arland spectre's estate he was. dead and it was I think one of senator. from Pennsylvania yes I painted his out.

like me and my friend helped paint his. house you ask him about JFK huh about. JFK they were dead he was dead I should. have asked him but that's why I think he. got a nice little estate but the uh dude. it was it was just like his surviving. family members and it was for real like. sad man like we were in there like using. oil primer and like the lady came in was. just like this smells like yeah we had a. yeah it's [ __ ] right oil paint like. why have a party coming in we're like. should and dude she started spraying. just walking around as if you were like. an in she would just spray perfume in.

the room and if you were standing there. she would just go like right in your. face jeez my mom my mom was a maid for. the DuPont and she said it was the same. thing she was a maid at the house of the. guy who was like a became like a psycho. killer wrestler guy wow she was down. there and she said it was like she was. like I remember being like it was a very. sad it was just like a sad vibe in the. house I mean after 100 years yeah. basically destroyed them all and it it. is very sad because most of them the. burden of and it's not just them I read. another book about the the asra family I. mean John Jacob asra was like one of the.

first like real millionaires in the. united he was a slum Lord um in. Manhattan he was like this Dutch slum. Lord he was like Hey yes he like how. many of you immigrants can have charge. $20 today um but and then and you know. and his family like they become these. Titans of society and all that and one. of his what great grandson I think died. on Titanic he was the one he was the. richest man on the Titanic and he died. on Titanic his 19-year-old wife who just. impregnated she got off she had a baby.

he became the Titanic baby um and. because yeah because he was literally in. his mother's womb uh whenever she was uh. she was saved off of the Titanic but. basically after him and he was by the. way ended up being like some degenerate. Playboy you know like didn't really live. up to it that is the funny thing you can. achieve it is very funny though to be. like you can achieve at the highest. level just so your grandson can just. like a boat while he likeed up right. yeah I mean day blow up on River. Rockefellers you know John John D Rock. he was kind of a psycho actually but his.

his son actually was relatively. successful he seemed like a good guy his. Grand his son's Nelson Rockefeller he. the Vice Presidential nominee for the. Republicans governor of New York but. after that you know things start to. drift off and now we're in the you know. the fifth and the sixth generation. you're like who it happened to the. Kennedy family dude you know it's like. the longer you go down the Kennedy. family you're like is there anybody. impressive in the I saw JFK's grandson. going around the DNC when I was there. like filming Tik toks and stuff and I. was like bro a that's the kiss [ __ ] John.

F Kennedy's grandson I want to shake him. I'm like live up to your goddamn father. your grandfather it's got to be a crazy. family to be a part of oh yeah I just. want to be like if your. great-grandfather the patriarch could. see you he'd be sick like looking around. dancing yeah he's like taking selfies be. like hey guys like you suck dude Lady. Gaga like yeah I was like dude this guy. blows he's like Dandy it is is is. absolute Dandy behavior that it just. does suck cuz it's like you want to do. well but it's like if you kind of like.

you know if you just try to go for the. absolute top yeah it does like without a. vision of some sort you just end up just. kind of like I think that uh anybody who. comes into even like a modest amount of. money like you probably need to do some. serious thinking and you really need to. be like okay like what is my life going. to look like children. this is why people need to sell a lot of. weed when they're 20 really I did this I. had the hero's journey I came into like. I would make like $4,000 a week and just.

be like holy [ __ ] dude I was killing it. well 4,000 I I I lost all I lost all it. 4,000 time 52 is how much that's 200. something, as like a 25-year-old dude. and I got to like I got that's all cat. you're not even paying taxes yeah I pay. taxes no you get the ego inflation and. like I got by the rug swept out out from. under me so that was one of the best. experiences of my life to lose all get. like the ego pump and then to have it. just ripped away from you cuz otherwise. yeah dude if like if you if you catch. that like um it gives you the thing like.

when things are going well I have an. understanding like you think you're a. boss they can definitely not go well. very quickly oh absolutely also I would. just say I've met a lot of people who. are like super wealthy and all of them. are pretty weird like every person I. know every person I've ever met with a. 100 million more net worth I'm like dude. you're a weirdo well you can't connect. with anybody you can't talk about like. if you even broach certain subjects 80%. of people are going to be like you want. to know funny I was talking guy and I. was like yeah you know when you're in an. airport and he's like oh I haven't been. in an airport in 20 years and I was like.

whoa I was like oh cuz you fly private I. was like I've never even been on a. private plane I was like that's a crazy. that was it was just so casual he's like. I haven't been in airport in 20 years I. know I was like. whoa what a life yeah like what does. that even look like yeah dude I I was. talking to somebody one time was excited. about like flying first class and he was. like dude my kids have never not flown. private I was like didn't think about. that I was like [ __ ] yeah but that that. probably really [ __ ] them up what are. they going to do then whenever they have. to fly economy either they'll be stoked. oh here's a thing I remember I grew up.

in like a upper middle class suburb so. like I moved to West Philly and I was in. the hood and I was like this is so cool. and then like so maybe they'll just be. on an airplane be like wow maybe yeah. but I mean you know sometimes you're uh. what is it like C on Southwest and. you're like trying to go for the middle. seat or whatever and you're like my life. sucks yeah true that's that's I'm. talking about plane now I'm talking. about you know this you're Northeast guy. Mega Bus like when you're taking like a. midnight mega bus to New York City the. cheapest one and you're like well I'll.

take a bag and uh when I get there like. change in a bathroom. and mega we did the CH there was a. chinatowns pregnant lady driving in. you're like what the. [ __ ] but dude yeah it's stomach's up. against the steering wheel yeah for real. dude there was for real a pregnant lady. driving it before drug addicts are like. freaking out in the back and someone's. like hey can y'all keep down back there. like shut your goddamn mouth yeah that. is true it is it does kind of set the. bar too high and then it's like all you.

can ever do is be disappointed in Life. or you know like like again I I did. eventually become very disillusioned. with life in the hood I was like this is. sad I was like this is so sad bro it's. so dude it's for real so sad yeah cuz. it's the systems are like designed to. just keep everybody down and I mean look. they have individual responsibility for. sure but like also the the way the. entire thing is designed it's like they. keep it contained nobody cares everyone. just wants to pretend like it's over. there and dude it's real like it's like. uh I remember me I I bought a house in.

West Philly with my brother when I was. like 21 it was like the house dude the. house was. $27,000 I lived in there yeah it's. pretty it was pretty [ __ ] awesome but. the uh did you hang on to it did you. sell it we sold it and then it got. knocked down immed it was structurally. it had a tree growing through the. basement it was bad but the uh but I. remember like going into like my. neighbor's house and they were like it's. funny cuz when you live there like there. are a lot of like like you know when you. grow up like I grw up my parents. watching Fox News it's just the news. being like black guys are up to no good. again it's like so you get this like. skewed picture and then you meet the.

individuals and you're like damn these. are like some of the nicest people then. there's obviously there's people like. just doing monstrous Behavior but I. remember like the first time I walked. into somebody's like their H my. neighbor's house it's like visually. jarring because it's like everything's. just [ __ ] up like every there's no. symmetry that everything's built [ __ ]. up and it's like I remember like being T. you know there's just like bugs yeah. just being like [ __ ] dude that's it was. like just crazy I know but then it's. like that's why you have to do good it's. that's like the brutal reality behind. all of like the you know let's save.

everyone political messaging it's like. dude nobody you have to bail yourself. out at the end of the day you just have. to sad it's not fair yeah I look at it. have to do two ways as in we have to of. course like design and move systems to. create like a quality of opportunity but. you also have to have a responsibility. given the circumstances for example like. I don't know any money anything anything. that you're working with I'll often be. like what a [ __ ] for example and you. guys probably have this too I you know. Crystal and I co-own our shows we're.

small business owners too and we have to. deal with all the small and all of the. paperwork and all the [ __ ] accounting. and all the [ __ ] behind it is. mind-numbing it's stupid it makes no. sense it's genuinely not fair because. these major corporations and all these. other people get all of these crazy tax. breaks and we're sitting here trying to. figure this stuff out and it sucks all. of our time and it's super stressful and. I could just be like oh it's not fair. and it's actually not fair but people. who are small business owners you get. [ __ ] like that's the reality but you. just have to do it right so I'm like.

okay I'm just going to sit here I'm. going to spend 10 hours of my goddamn. time learning the ins and outs of all of. this to make sure I'm not getting ripped. off on my account pay oh you double. check the account you got to double. check man I you're I'm like you you. patreon and all this I want to be a good. Steward of other people's money like I. don't mean pissing people's money it's. not nice you can't do that to people. that makes sense I mean it's a serious. responsibility when you're like hey pay. me $10 a month like it's not a [ __ ]. joke dud you're like actually you have. to become a steward of that money for. real you want to give their money man.

that's but no I agree I agree you got to. give them something you got to do. something you can't just P away you're. working for them and you can't just you. know it's also money it's like look I. grew up Indian so you know we're F we we. money it means something you know you're. taught from a very young age and I don't. care how much money you have like $100. will always be $100 to me I know exactly. what that buys and I know what it means. what it does it's well it's funny cuz. it's in where I'm from in Garner Valley. Pennsylvania there has there's been like. a massive influx of the Indian.

population all everyone I know like. people like landscaping companies. they're like bro they're like just. haggling on the [ __ ] La he's like. their lawns are this [ __ ] high and. then they be like I'm not paying it's. like my cousin's like bro they haggle me. to [ __ ] death it's really funny yeah. [ __ ]. him that's what he gets yeah but dude it. is uh yeah it is like it's one of those. things I feel like it's like they were. out of the race conversation for a long. time of course we are yeah we're uh. we're the inconvenient minority um. because Asians in general are completely.

invisibilized by us racial discourse big. time um I mean look you guys are killing. it dude yeah we're the richest people in. America um uh yeah I think it's cool I. mean okay I mean I I'll say this it's. not really fair because Indians in. America are uh like so-called like the. twice selected Elite and so why do they. say that because India is a billion. people okay but the cast system where. bramin which is the top cast those. people oh yeah so you do bramin 40% I.

think it's only like one or two% of. India my math could be wrong so Indians. but uh you know 40% so one or two% of. India but 40% of Indian Americans are. bramman so that means 40% of the people. here are part of the top 1 to 2% already. of the Indian cast system yeah because. they're doctors Engineers lawyers people. who are Highly Educated so part of. bramman culture that's where I come from. too by the way on table um but no but. I'm saying our family has Generations. sense you would able to get yeah of. revering like education family we don't.

drink alcohol we're like this is how we. live our life like our our life is about. family it's about furthering the Next. Generation individualism really as a. concept is like not part of that and. that's actually why I think it meshes. really well with America is America will. drag you to individualism America will. drag you to a little bit of consumerism. a little bit of like you can be whoever. you want to be but the back stop that. you have is like no no no no no this is. not what we do like money we don't spend. it on stupid [ __ ] when we have money we. spend it on books on education so the.

the my upbringing was like the budget is. Limitless for anything educational the. budget is like zero for anything stupid. for [ __ ] around and I no offense. white people but I have noticed you have. proclivities for new cars and for nice. seers uh and and nice kitchens and you. know you so I'll be like so your kids. got $25,000 in debt and you got a new. [ __ ] kitchen interesting um in our. culture that [ __ ] does not fly but. that's why I would say Indians are very. successful in America because it's like. we're we're both obviously Highly.

Educated that's number one but two I. really think the culture is a huge. aspect of it is the way that you Revere. money you think about family there will. there are no Indian parents out there. who have the money who are not paying. for their child's college education it's. just it would never happen and in white. families there's this weird uh hyper. indiv like they got to this like Boomer. mentality of like they've got to figure. it out cuz back in my day I'm like well. have you looked at inflation like what. the [ __ ] are you talking about and you. know they're like well they'll get it. when I die I'm like yeah but it's.

actually way more useful to help your. child out when you're 18 19 to 25 those. are the foundational years of your life. so it's a mindset difference that was no. no dude I I appreciate you saying that. that was the one thing my parents were. actually really good about is like don't. go into debt if you ever avoid it at all. costs and also keep a low profile like. don't try to my dad does Spazzy like. he'll get he has like phases where he. has like 57 bicycles in his basement I. don't know what [ __ ] he's doing but they. were very and my parents weren't like.

educated really they you know they went. to high school and they got out and that. was it but they were very like that was. the one thing I think that's the thing. I'm going to copy off of them they like. sent us to like an all boys Catholic. High School paid for our college and. it's like that's the one thing with my. kids it's like we're I'm looking for. schools for my my daughter right now and. it's like I was telling my wife I'm like. is your mom's big on a lot of people I. know are like the public school is just. as good it's like. I don't think so I don't I gen don't. think so it's like I'm assuming you live. in a nice area it probably yeah it's. pretty nice yeah well lot of indans lot.

of IND you're probably fine then man I. went to public school yeah no I but no. the public schools around me are it's. like it's newly nice so the public. schools are but it's like you compare it. to a private school and it's like I mean. you done well for I'll give you two. cases I'll give you the case for it's. just my my point is sorry before I cut. you off my point is if you if you can't. afford it you should spend money on your. kids education that's all I was trying. to yeah yeah absolutely and so in that. CA I it's interesting but more what I. meant in terms of that is uh sometimes. people will be like I don't know like I. knew a girl who wanted to take a like a.

graduate test like study for the GRE and. she was like oh my parents won't pay for. my GRE test you know thing but they have. the money to pay for it but they're like. you have to work to go for your GRE test. prep I'm like what like I like who are. your. parents that's so ruthless yeah yeah in. my head I'm like that doesn't even fly. like it's just you know but if I was. like Hey Dad so if I was like Dad I need. $5,000 for a gr Prep course and I was. like 23 or whatever like absolutely but. if I was like I need $5,000 to go hang. out in Sant Trope or what it's like he's.

like what no way no that that does make. sense that's what I'm talking well and a. lot of the the suburb like that I'm from. I've learned that many of the families. are just debt it's just like the whole. thing runs on a giant balloon of debt. and it's like kind of Americans are. obsessed with that Americans are. obsessed with consumerism and uh you. know I can't my dad when he was making. good money was rolling around in the. 1988 Mazda with no air conditioning in. 150° such a with his windows rolled down.

uh and he refused to get it he. eventually sold it for $11,000 after he. put 2,00,000 miles on it so it's like. that's where I come from um and it's. like do you need a new Raptor truck. Texas probably not you know it's like. these guys no offense but you know if. you look at the average car payment. Texas is the highest average car payment. in the nation because all of these. idiots are rolling around in trucks you. don't need a brand new truck $8,000. Raptor it's ridiculous like sorry you.

need a Toyota Camera Camry or a Hyundai. or like any of these other car they're. great cars they'll get you so I actually. a big proponent of uh Dave Ramsey for. the vast majority of people I think. Ramsey his what you were just saying I. think his like Common Sense approach if. 95% of people uh followed their life. that way they would be better off he. preaches like avoid debt you know don't. use credit cards and all this I. personally am a big credit card Point. fiend but you know I pay my balance and. all that stuff but here's the thing I. think what he gets at is what we were. talking about with impulse control and.

all that it's look look at the stats. people can't control themselves they're. only paying the minimums they're taking. out 35 40 50% debt or whatever on their. APR helck loans and all this he has. taught me about financial products I. didn't even know existed I'm like wait. so people out there are taking two. mortgages and then another mortgage on. top of that one how do you sleep at. night bro dude insane oh my God I. actually cannot imagine so if for. anybody out there who's listening if you. listen to Dave and you actually take at. the very least like take some of that.

advice to heart you know the number one. thing is budget too no matter how much. money you make you still need to budget. and the reason why is you just need to. know where your money is going and you. need to be conscientious about every. dollar that you spend so like you were. just saying like you need you and your. wife need to sit down and make a choice. and be like we're sending our kid to PR. private school that means this is our. nut we need X Y and Z amount per month. this is how it looks like and we're. saving and this is what it looks like. with I'm still I have an open mind right. now I'm like I'm I've looked at like. four schools and it's like I've noticed.

a huge difference between but it's like. if I see a public school that works I. would go I don't I don't not like one or. the other but so I went to both so I can. make the case so I was very lucky so I. grew up in College Station I went to. public school for the first 16 years of. my life my last year is of high school. my parents we moved to Qatar and I got. to go to a very fancy private school. they didn't it was part of the deal like. an international. the amican school of Doha right so went. from a school where probably the median. income of the parent was like let's say. like. $40,000 to a school where the medium.

income of the parent was probably like. $300,000 something an elite school it. was it was an outrageously nice school. and we like we were flying for school. trips like everybody there their their. parents work for Exxon and dude that was. one of the schools we looked at like. we're going to send your fourth grader. to France for a week I was like what the. [ __ ] I like that's what my last years of. high school were like and I will tell. you I definitely loved it loved it but I. would worry that if I had grown up in. that environment and anybody out there. if you've ever interacted with people. who are in that bubble there's a lot of.

downside that man like that's when you. were talking about the first class thing. we were on a school trip once and one of. the kids had never flown economy before. and we were all flying economy together. he was like 17 years old the [ __ ] he had. never been in economy class he only ever. flown first and frankly he was a. Pampered little [ __ ] you know it's like. and I the people like that like there is. there is something important and I think. about it too where you know about the. people that I grew up with I didn't even. love them that much I'll be honest with. you but there was it was it was. important I got to interact with people.

from all across different walks of life. I think public education is very. important and I actually think at a. young age too you know I think in high. school I could make a really good case. if you have the money to go to private. school if you look at the stats private. schools send the vast majority of their. kids to Ivy League and other uh schools. especially if that's what you want for. your child but K through what middle. school it's not really about education. it's about socialization and so for. socialization purposes I don't really. want my children just me personally like.

to be growing up in a bubble uh and in. that bubble like I I've spent enough. time now in Elite circles that I can see. how dangerous that it really can be to. the mind and and to how that person can. eventually use that privilege in others. and first of all they're over. interpreting their own success like this. idea like they'll be like oh we're doing. pretty good I'm like you are not doing. [ __ ] yeah I'm doing good you're not. doing good like you have not done. anything and yeah dude it is it is weird.

man that's that's the kind of the thing. I've been struggling with it's like you. know CU I don't want to be like get them. older and be like what the [ __ ] you. could have sent me to a nicer school. like I don't want you to be a [ __ ]. yeah but you can also just track each of. your children and like what if them one. of them is really like there are. different types of schools there's. magnet schools there's math schools. there's uh Sports there's drama there's. like all these other ones like you got. to what I would do is I would be like. okay but first of all again k through. eight is about it's not about education. actually a lot of that education my man. is on you all right if anything you're. trying to pay somebody else to teach. your kids how to read better that's.

that's about you you need to step up in. the house I'm [ __ ] what are you. talking about dude we spelled her name. the other day but that's what I'm saying. we you got to be keeping that [ __ ] up. every day after school not even tutors. you you need to be engaged you need to. be making sure that you're sitting there. and making stuff this stuff done because. that's where the parent really uh is is. the most important of course you know. middle school high school when we start. talking about SATs and that's when I. think education and the quality of. teacher can really make an impact on. them but that's by the time they're. starting to become like formed as a. human being and may have an idea of what.

they want to do but those initial years. I think it's really just about learning. how to like be a person in the world. about how to interact with others. following rule like what does it mean to. like live in a society and and be in. like this ordered weird thing that we. call that's the purpose of school man. like at the end of the day that's why. homeschool people are [ __ ] weirdos. can we all be honest have youever met a. normal one they're freaks all right it's. true man like it's true I know I know. people who are homeschooling right now. they're going be pissed at you dude I.

don't care I mean every we met one. homeschooled kid sometimes they do it in. pods and they're okay we met a home. school kid in my baseball team and like. we drove him to tears yeah you should it. was and he deserved it be honest he. deserved it dude there is a huge aspect. of the socialization for sure it's. important for sure but then it's like. with the public schools like what are. they getting socialized into then you. look at all the other [ __ ] they had on. with like you know like when're like. don't tell your parents if you want to. trans come to us and we'll send you to. that was a [ __ ] that was fre we living. here in Texas dude what are you worried. about you actually dude youever these. schools dude now all the in Austin so.

the schools are like dude they're pretty. [ __ ] they go pretty hard with that. [ __ ] and that's the stuff that I'm like. H but I don't know I'm what about the. rest of the BBS around it Round Rock. Fredericksburg all those other they. can't be there I mean I grew up around. here man like that's those people those. those some Bible Bel you've been going. for a long time dude yeah that's true. yeah right place changed you left bro. yeah. that's that's I guess you're true that's. that's kind of yeah I don't know I I. went to a wall I we can get out of here. soon how long are we doing. Josh damn dude we almost did it ran uh.

I'll let you out of here in a second but. I was laughing we we today we toured a. because again it's like I'm going to. Public Schools I'm just trying to find. like I just that's the one thing I will. try to give my kids the best in. education well you should I mean look. there's nothing wrong with go doing. private school or anything I will say. today so so I was thinking that I went. to uh the Walder school today fa. familiar know I'm familiar with what it. is dude seen anything like that in my. life and it was like almost I. theoretically I'm like it's all the. stuff I like I like and I saw the. reality of it and I was like no f it was. just like almost creepy I agree there.

was a there at one point there's one. there's one dude in the tour no matter. what the person said he would go oh. that's so important and like dude at one. point at one point they were like we. have climbing trees we have trees we. don't climb those are the climbing trees. and he goes so yes and it and then they. were in another room and they're like. for math we have a tactile sensory. aspect where we have these Marbles and. they're actually counting the mar and. the guy literally over marbles goes oh. yes I was like dude would you shut the. [ __ ] up that's so weird there becomes a.

point of it where it is like there are. some Millennial a fake favor like we did. the entire Odyssey School play in fourth. grade it's like yeah all right dude like. Millennial trends like the wal I don't I. need to look more into them not 100% I. think they do well I think it has like. but go ahead I'm sorry well I was going. to say gentle parenting is the one that. I've become familiar with for this old. trend of being like they don't say the. word no right everything is about. redirection and the Indian In Me Is like. how can you possibly turn out like a.

well formed ad like actually a huge well. I would say majority of adulthood is. learning how to deal with the. consequences of the word no you want a. job [ __ ] you no more money [ __ ] you no. there's a giant no hovering over your. entire life yeah it's Lally like you're. like or like oh you want to go on a date. it's like what are 99% of these Wom. women going to tell you no absolutely. you're a loser actually yes yeah I go. back so it's like I I grew up in like. the rigorous old school like you if you. get in trouble you get hit all that. stuff I do think that's not a good idea.

to do probably I think I think it's. genuinely it's like you know it I I. don't think it's the end of the world. especially if you're not like getting. drunk and like coming in for no reason. if there's like a rhyme and reason to it. it's not the worst thing but I do think. the um punishing physically makes you as. a kid like I'm not going to tell my. parents anything I don't want to get. smacked no but they need consequences. like take away the things that they like. or like you're in silent treatment or. like I do I think consequences are. really because man when you get shielded. from it and honestly you know even even.

I remember like that first time when. you're 22 years old and you graduate. from college and you're actually out on. your own and you really are like you're. like oh my God like this is this sucks. like so you make a bad decision and. you're sitting there you know and you're. like holy and this is on me and I'm by. myself right and nobody's going to bail. you out right now I'm telling you the. worst the worst possible is when you're. making bad decisions and it's paying off. because eventually it all hits you and. you go oh and it it comes for everybody.

dude and you go oh man and the older you. get you go there's no way I got to live. my way through this now and it's like. bro dude thank you so much for coming I. can talk to you for I can talk to you. forever I really enjoyed it this. actually pretty fun dude thank you man. appreciate you thank you.
