Somebody went to wah Wah. I believe for the very first time this week. 00:03:22 Speaker 5: That's not true. No, I why do you. I have explained this to you before multiple times. I think of the last week, Russ. I've gone to wah Wah many times, usually when I'm in d C, because it's, like, you know, conveniently on store corners. 00:03:40 Speaker 3: No, because it's a gas station, isn't it. 00:03:42 Speaker 5: It's basically a gas station. 00:03:43 Speaker 3: I don't can. 00:03:46 Speaker 2: Gas, so that's just a lie. 00:03:47 Speaker 5: But it's kind of he's what he's saying is it's kind of the same. 00:03:50 Speaker 3: It's like a quick trip, right, Yeah, it's a quick trip. 00:03:52 Speaker 2: It's a no. 00:03:53 Speaker 4: I mean, like even so quick trip is for people. Quick trips for people who don't like like take and flavor. 00:04:02 Speaker 3: Hey, you know what quick trip is where I get my coffee, So leave me alone. 00:04:06 Speaker 2: They have black yea, yeah, no, I mean no, I understand. 00:04:09 Speaker 7: I mean that's that's one of the reasons that. 00:04:12 Speaker 2: It's because there's no. 00:04:15 Speaker 5: Well, I like wah wah jack. I do like it, and they have great sandwich selection. 00:04:22 Speaker 2: And many What did you get? What'd you get? What you get? 00:04:25 Speaker 5: I mean I think I got like a turkey something or other, but I don't know I was in it. 00:04:29 Speaker 4: But you get you get turkey HOGI or turkey turkey I got. 00:04:34 Speaker 7: As a proper red state American, I prefer. 00:04:36 Speaker 6: Sheets, sheets and from the same state Blake, I know, and I'm from the red and you know, the red part of the state as. 00:04:45 Speaker 7: Opposed to the blue lib part of the state is is sheets. 00:04:48 Speaker 5: So are you saying what both is blue? 00:04:50 Speaker 3: Both? 00:04:51 Speaker 7: Yes? 00:04:51 Speaker 3: Waha? 00:04:51 Speaker 6: Who wah wa is Philly coded? Sheets is heroic American countryside coded. 00:04:57 Speaker 5: Wow, this is a big dividing. It sounds like she is heritage Americans and wah wah is import Americans. Yeah. 00:05:04 Speaker 2: No, they are not really married, so not even not even close. 00:05:08 Speaker 8: So I just don't have an affinity for trumped up gas stations. 00:05:11 Speaker 5: Well, this is my whole thing, my question. 00:05:13 Speaker 7: She's never been so like you. 00:05:18 Speaker 5: Never even been there, Yeah, but never even been more the red coated. 00:05:22 Speaker 6: Yeah, but well, BUCkies there's just different geographic locations. I don't think you can make a bucket. 00:05:25 Speaker 4: But BUCkies is also a different category of things, like BUCkies is more like a truck stop. 00:05:30 Speaker 5: I think I think the the chat needs to inform us what is better sheets, BUCkies or wah wah. By the way, I bet more people know wa just because I think there's more. 00:05:40 Speaker 7: I'm pretty sure there's more sheets. 00:05:42 Speaker 3: People. 00:05:46 Speaker 2: Yeah are pretty they go to to toe these days. 00:05:49 Speaker 5: All right, Why don't you educate me? Why do you like wah wah so much? 00:05:55 Speaker 4: Because I like quality, I like taste, because I believe in maha and real food with sheets is not you. 00:06:03 Speaker 5: Think, is mama Maha? Wait mama, so you think. 00:06:11 Speaker 2: And not w w compared to sheets. 00:06:14 Speaker 5: Absolutely, that's Blake's Blake thinks Maha is it's a bunch of woo woo. 00:06:19 Speaker 7: That's why I don't That's why I don't go for the wah wah. 00:06:21 Speaker 5: That was That was the That was The Atlantic's story about the Maha movement during the campaign. It was like, woo woo. 00:06:29 Speaker 2: Right, yeah, yeah. 00:06:31 Speaker 7: Let's see what it's. 00:06:33 Speaker 4: It's it's it's good quality food. It's Philadelphia based obviously from there. 00:06:38 Speaker 5: Okay, there it is. 00:06:39 Speaker 2: That's me. 00:06:44 Speaker 6: No, he likes it because it's in Philly. Whereas you said, we have these import Americans who took over a heritage city. 00:06:50 Speaker 2: Yeah where America still, Yeah, we found fifty years ago this year. 00:06:56 Speaker 5: So, so I fly into Philly last weekend because I I had to go to an event, and so I made the comment to Jack. I was like, I haven't been to Philly in I mean ages, it's been a long time since I've been to Philly. And Jack instantly the first thing he goes, wowwa, I gotta go to Wawa. 00:07:13 Speaker 4: I was like, yeah, So I was like asking me about the event and trying to get some like what's filet of the land? Who are some of the key figures out there? And I was like, but did you go to wah Wah? Like, I just I just want to know if you went to Wahwai Andrew and he's like, he's like, yeah, no, get there. I'm like, and I wouldn't stop, like, I wouldn't answer any of his questions until he confirmed to me that he was on his way to wah Wah. 00:07:33 Speaker 5: Yeah, it was. It was pretty funny shows. So you have Jack Jack is not even sponsored by wy. 00:07:37 Speaker 7: So you were in Philly for the first time in eternity. Did you go to No? 00:07:41 Speaker 5: I did nothing cool. I think. I flew in on a on a red eye. I woke up, I went to bed as soon as I got to the the hotel, like five thirty in the morning. I woke up. I ended up having to deal with some work stuff that popped up. Wrote my speech, drove to the event in Lancaster, which I say, right, and then that is correctly and then I did it, did the event, drove home, went to bed, woke up, hit the airplane. I did. I was trying to get I wanted to go downtown. To be honest, I wanted to drive around downtown. 00:08:12 Speaker 7: So have you never been to Pat's or Ginos? 00:08:14 Speaker 3: I have. 00:08:14 Speaker 7: I've been to bo Okay, you've been to be. 00:08:16 Speaker 5: Yeah, that was on my original trip to Philly. Actually, the time that I went to Philly before this time was when I went to Pat, Pats and Genos where they come together in little triangles. 00:08:24 Speaker 7: Which did you prefer? 00:08:25 Speaker 2: Yeah? 00:08:26 Speaker 5: I can't actually recall, Yeah, I really can't. I think I was when I went to Pats and Gino's. I think I was like nineteen and so I can't remember which one. I thought they were good, but I didn't think either was extraordinary. 00:08:40 Speaker 7: Be in evasive, Jack, Jack, What do you think what difference? 00:08:43 Speaker 2: The difference comes down to? Like what you prefer? 00:08:45 Speaker 3: Uh? 00:08:46 Speaker 4: Gino's is like a cleaner bun and a you know, like like. 00:08:51 Speaker 2: Very much made to order. Where's Pats? 00:08:53 Speaker 4: Like they soaked the buns into grease and it's just dripping with like flavor and fat and steak, you know, good gooyness. And so if you like that better, then you'll like it Pats better. Do you like that soggy bun? Situation if you if you want the cleaner, but like like so, I generally prefer Pats, whereas my wife generally prefers Genos because she likes that cleaner bund. 00:09:18 Speaker 7: Gena's also the one that they had the stunt where like you had to speak American to order a sandwich. 00:09:23 Speaker 3: Property. 00:09:24 Speaker 4: Yes, so Joey Vento was the former owner repassed away of Genos back twenty years ago. Now, man, that was two thousand and six when you put this up that said this is America. Put up a sign that said this is America when ordering speak English. That was Geno's. 00:09:40 Speaker 3: Base. 00:09:40 Speaker 5: They wouldn't do that now though, base, I mean they might. 00:09:43 Speaker 7: I think they kept on taking it down in twenty twenty or something. 00:09:47 Speaker 4: I don't know. 00:09:48 Speaker 2: They may have taken it down every week to have a country. 00:09:50 Speaker 7: Oh it's worse. 00:09:50 Speaker 6: The sign was quietly removed shortly before the twenty sixteen Democrat National Convention to avoid offending the Democrats, which is in fact that is I I believe when I actually went to Pats and Gena, No wait, no, I went to Pats and Genas because I was in Philly to cover the White Privilege Conference in twenty sixteen true story. 00:10:09 Speaker 4: You know what's yeah, pat Genas was always the move, like after like you after you go to a concert or something, so like al throughout high school or college, like you go to a concert, you you know, then you hit up Pats and Genos because all everything else is closed, but they'd be open late nights, so you just go down there, you get a steak, drive home, good good times. And it was safe enough back when I was in high school in college that my parents would let me go down there with and come on this pre cell phone era, so without a cell phone, they were like, yeah, have the car, go to the concert, go to Patting Geno's, come home. 00:10:40 Speaker 2: Be fine, all right. 00:10:42 Speaker 6: So to get back to our original topic here, which is the wahwah versus sheets, So we have and also so we have wah wah. It's theoretically this top gas station chain, but we all know it's not really competitive with fuckies, and that raises the question, has wah. 00:10:59 Speaker 4: Was and yet he doesn't that as a gas station. 00:11:05 Speaker 6: From the Southern Poverty Law Center, to make it competitive with BUCkies, so that we can pretend that there is a viable gas station on the East Coast, I think we need to ask these questions now. 00:11:16 Speaker 5: BLC been fun funneling money. 00:11:18 Speaker 2: Hey, we have cheaper gas than you, Arizona guys. 00:11:19 Speaker 5: Do It's true, you know why, because of the we're in the we're in a we're in a gas desert in the west, because natural California should be supplying better gas, but they don't. So getting supplies to Arizona is a bit. 00:11:32 Speaker 7: Of a Also, who cares. 00:11:33 Speaker 6: Arizona's just like we flow with wealths almost like almost like God didn't intend for people to live in deserts. 00:11:39 Speaker 5: God didn't depend although I will tell you so. Fun fact Gosha bouncing all over the place, sorry audience, but hey, check this out. So there are a series of canals throughout the valley in Phoenix. Turns out these canals were first used like fifteen hundred years ago by the Native Americans. They have been functional. They charted out the exact like perfect route for the water to flow with gravity, and so we still use the exact same rat as they did originally. 00:12:07 Speaker 7: What happened to those people? 00:12:09 Speaker 5: They got wiped out by the settlers. 00:12:10 Speaker 6: Oh so they're all dead, all right, Well that's an ominous sign. But anyway, but I will. 00:12:14 Speaker 5: Know actually has a water source coming from two directions basically down into the valley, and it flows throughout the valley. Also, people have been here for a long time. 00:12:23 Speaker 3: I will know. 00:12:24 Speaker 7: Phoenix is a fake desert. It rains all the time here. 00:12:27 Speaker 5: So if Blake is the one person in Phoenix who thinks the problem with Phoenix is that it rains, it rains too much and it's too cold. 00:12:33 Speaker 6: It rains all the time. It's too cold, and it rains all the time here. This is a fake desert and in fact, in real life, if you check the science, it is the wettest desert in the world. 00:12:44 Speaker 5: What it is, let me ask you this, this is the wettest. In order to be a desert, you have to get less than ten inches of rainy a year. 00:12:50 Speaker 6: Right, I don't know what the exact amount is, but whatever it is, we are right that divining line. We could they could they could move it a little bit and we just be one of those semi arid planes or whatever. 00:13:00 Speaker 5: Maybe climate change will save us. 00:13:01 Speaker 6: Yeah, all right, so I'm keeping in mind, but we have to get onel c wait, wait before before we do this, though, Andrew, when you were on the East coast. 00:13:09 Speaker 4: When you were in beautiful Pennsylvania. You did not see a desert climate. 00:13:14 Speaker 2: Did you know? You saw what a real springtime looks like. 00:13:17 Speaker 5: I saw lime disease. I saw I saw if I hiked through this forest, I'm gonna get lime disease. 00:13:24 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's Connecticut. 00:13:27 Speaker 3: My fiance can attest to that. 00:13:29 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's what I saw. Jack, I saw man. How how brave and you know, just amazing were the founding generations that that pioneered through those forests and made settlements and established America. 00:13:43 Speaker 6: Philadelphia's where we originally noticed the phenomenon of like everyone being zombified on on fentanel right, I think the original fentan that's Philadelphia. 00:13:52 Speaker 7: That's what I all that. 00:13:54 Speaker 4: So that area is called is Kensington, and it's called the k and A Corner soon and Alleghany in Philly. So what's interesting is that though, so it's it's yeah, we're all the fentanyl zombies are. It's underneath the market Frankfurt, l right now. And what's interesting is that that same area, Blake, I'm sure you would find this interesting, used to be run by a group called. 00:14:15 Speaker 2: The k and A Gang. 00:14:16 Speaker 4: And the k and A gang was basically the Irish mafia of Philadelphia. And let me tell you something, even up through the eighties, up through the nineteen nineties, you could still go down to k and A and you could take your family shopping there on a Sunday, you could go out with your friends. It was perfectly safe and perfectly fine when it was run by the Irish mafia. However, when they cleaned that up and decided to let the fentanyl zombies run in through, we now have a new name for that area. 00:14:42 Speaker 2: And it is called Kensington Beach. Do you guys know why it's called Kensington Beach. 00:14:46 Speaker 5: Everybody's laying out on the sidewalk. 00:14:48 Speaker 4: It's called Kensington Beach because everyone's laying out on the sidewalk, shrung out, like you're on the beach, and like they're sunning themselves. 00:14:56 Speaker 2: Actually, like trying a fentanyl. 00:14:57 Speaker 5: What you're talking about is a true is a true phenomenon, because in Boston. I remember when I was in Boston, there's an area that was controlled by the Italian mafia. Everybody kind of still knew it. I don't know if it still is, but it was. It was the safest part of Boston. Like the urban core of Boston because the because the Italian mafia ran. 00:15:18 Speaker 6: Hey, do you guys know what the name for the neighborhood is where all the vuntional zombies are in Phoenix? 00:15:24 Speaker 7: Because if you do, you should tell me, because. 00:15:25 Speaker 6: I don't have any shorthand neighborhood in Phoenix. 00:15:32 Speaker 7: I think it's also. 00:15:32 Speaker 4: Called I think in uh in Boston it's called mass and casts aka the methodone. 00:15:39 Speaker 5: Mile hold on. We have some really good s pl C memes and like the teams like, we need to abandon that topic. No, these SPLC memes have to be chunk blake. 00:15:49 Speaker 7: Well, yeah, the spl talking. 00:15:52 Speaker 6: It turns out the big plot twist this week is the spl C has been funding various disreputable organizations like the Kuk Clan and the National Socialist Party of America and the City of Philadelphia and wah wah and all of these things, very sinister entities. But it turns out they finally got caught. So they've got a pile of eight hundred million dollars and it turns out they've been paying people on the far right better than you know, the actual far right pays its own people, And they finally got caught and we have a lot, we have a lot of great stuff. 00:16:23 Speaker 7: Let's see what what do you guys think is the funniest one. He needed to rank these by like funniness otherwise, Well. 00:16:29 Speaker 4: So before we before we get into the means, just to make sure everyone, you know, because some people like this is the for some people, this is actually their only source of news all week. I've heard because people are straight up like I only listened to the Thought Crime. 00:16:42 Speaker 5: Somebody told me the exact same thing this week, Jack, Yeah, so fair enough. 00:16:45 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no, I'm serious, Like I have people tell me that. 00:16:48 Speaker 4: So this has come up where the SPLC, which was basically like the the or like they were like the Racism Clearing House, like we determined whether or not people are racist or not. Like that's how they reported themselves and that and they've been cited by everyone, literally everyone from CBS to CNN to the Department of Justice to the FBI, like all the way up and down. 00:17:10 Speaker 2: Courts have cited them. 00:17:11 Speaker 4: PayPal would censor you, and Venmo would debank you if you were listed by the SPLC. 00:17:18 Speaker 2: Amazon would delist you. 00:17:19 Speaker 4: Wikipedia, Wikipedia on Charlie's Charlie Kirk's page still cites the SPLC. 00:17:25 Speaker 2: I checked that this. 00:17:26 Speaker 4: Week, and so over and over and over they are seen as this like reputable clearinghouse of quote unquote, we determine who the extremists are. And they were indicted this week for fraud because it turns out that they were raising a ton of money. He's in direct mail campaigns and scare tactics to raise money and they were actually funding extremist organizations to then go around and scare their donors and say, oh my gosh, look at all these extremist groups and look at all these events, and look at all this racism that's on the rise. But it turns out it was on the rise because they were paying for it in the first place, and they got indicted, and there's that all over the face. It's really really funny and blake to your point. The memes have been absolute fire. 00:18:09 Speaker 5: The memes have been like probably the best part of my week. 00:18:12 Speaker 7: Honestly, Like we probably just go through them all. 00:18:15 Speaker 5: Number one, I think number. 00:18:17 Speaker 7: One is just them announcing the indictment. 00:18:19 Speaker 2: Number two, you guys to read it the podcast, Guys. 00:18:27 Speaker 5: Finding out the SPLC has been paying people to promote white supremacy. You guys are getting paid. 00:18:35 Speaker 2: So true, Hey man, some of some of us do it for love of the game. 00:18:40 Speaker 6: Ya gonna say, honestly, just like a little boy. 00:18:49 Speaker 2: Hitler? 00:18:50 Speaker 6: What is this is from the little kid is marching is goose and doing the Hitler salute after the SPLC five dollars. 00:19:00 Speaker 4: This is the great Clayton Bigsby bit from the Chappelle Show years ago, the black white supremacist. 00:19:08 Speaker 3: Meeting with. 00:19:11 Speaker 5: This is good. We should have had that with the sound. 00:19:18 Speaker 2: I don't know. Some of the sound on that episode might not be great. 00:19:22 Speaker 4: Oh, here's Sabrina Carpenter, my woke aunt, learning her s p l C donations were funding. 00:19:30 Speaker 3: I like it? 00:19:31 Speaker 5: Please, I don't like it. I don't like it. 00:19:34 Speaker 7: Is funny jokes. 00:19:37 Speaker 5: Heading into my new job at the Southern Poverty Laws Center. 00:19:42 Speaker 3: That's good it alright? 00:19:44 Speaker 5: Wait, okay, here we go SPLC employee waking up this morning realizing they were funding the very thing they were fighting are okay? 00:19:58 Speaker 7: Oh dear the Elmo one, But what if Elmo was paid two hundred and seventy thousand dollars by the SPLCA. 00:20:09 Speaker 2: Terrible? 00:20:10 Speaker 5: And that is two black kids on a bench. That's terrible. 00:20:15 Speaker 7: The thing is is you can make jokes. 00:20:16 Speaker 6: But that probably happened because we see in the indictment that someone who was involved in planning the Unite the Right rally was making allegedly was making far right posts under the oversight of the SPLC. 00:20:27 Speaker 7: So the SPLC very well may. 00:20:29 Speaker 6: Have told someone say it to blend in kid say it. The number, the number of nwords in the world possibly went up because of the SPLC's money. 00:20:38 Speaker 5: That's probably the best, well, the most succinct best put way I've heard it said. There have been more nwards uttered in the world because of the SBLC. 00:20:48 Speaker 7: They're paying for it all. They're funding that. 00:20:50 Speaker 5: That's really funny. 00:20:51 Speaker 7: They're funding words the eight hundred million dollar N. 00:20:54 Speaker 5: Word fund Obama. 00:20:56 Speaker 4: But that being said, they're never going to you know, like they're never going to care. You have to understand how the how the liberal mind works. They're never actually going to believe you or care. They're just gonna say the SPLC is on my side and you're not. 00:21:10 Speaker 5: Well, don't we hey, do we have their explanation for why they if we don't have that clip they gave this this like terrible we were far bombed forty years ago, so we needed to do this. I was like, okay, okay, this one's funny because it's uh, you know, hi, mom, why are we so rich? And your daddy was a klansman who did contract work for the SPLC. 00:21:33 Speaker 6: I mean they paid really well. One of the guys got paid a million dollars. 00:21:36 Speaker 9: By them over they call it the Palace, right, Blake, They had a lot of this was great, Uh from the movie Rocky Little Philly Action there, Blake. 00:21:47 Speaker 2: Uh you go. 00:21:48 Speaker 4: I don't see any logging into Blue Sky to tell the lefties they've been funding the kk kid they're running after. 00:21:56 Speaker 7: True them all lineup. 00:21:57 Speaker 6: This will probably increase the SPLC's donations because like the Left is naturally going to be reactive in that way and they're going to say, like, screw you, I'm going to donate to the SPLC. And the funny thing about it, I don't even know if I hate it that much. I would love to destroy the SPLC, but the constellation if we fail to do this and it becomes bigger than ever. The SPLC is kind of a money sink for the left, Like it is a thing that gets a ton of money so that they can have a website up with an annoying hate map. And they used to be more dangerous because they were teaching people at the FBI. They were embedded in a lot of things. But now at this point the right has learned the SPLC's a scam. We're not listening to the crap they say. They don't have the institutional power they used to do, but they still get tons of money. And if you're going to give a left wing org eight five hundred million dollars, I'd be a lot more worried if that five hundred million dollars was going to the ACLU, if it was going to some law fair org. And instead it's going to the SPLC so they can have their you know, gold plated front door on their poverty palace in Montgomery. 00:22:55 Speaker 5: Let's do the Seinfeld one with the sound it says. The caption says, reviewing my speech written by the SBLC for the Hotties for Hitler Rally after they paid me fifty thousand dollars. This is a great scene from Seinfeld play. 00:23:10 Speaker 10: And the Jews steal our money through the Zionist occupied government and use the black man to bring drugs into our oppressed white minority communities. 00:23:27 Speaker 7: Is paying for it, folks. 00:23:28 Speaker 5: Brought to you in part by the SPLC based Seinfield. Do we have any more? 00:23:34 Speaker 6: Dang, we have, we have unlimited amounts, so many of these. 00:23:40 Speaker 4: And I've definitely been texting like everyone in my context list. 00:23:43 Speaker 5: Where I like that hold on the Star Wars one, which one is that? 00:23:47 Speaker 3: Yeah? 00:23:48 Speaker 5: Oh that's our it was already uh SPLC. I'm working on hate crimes like stopping them Ryan stopping them right, yeah, that's then there's the American History X one, which was that one? 00:24:03 Speaker 2: Oh man, that one's bad. 00:24:05 Speaker 5: Edward Norton, that was bad. No, no, no, you're thinking of the like the X rated one or the R rated one if you will. I was just thinking about the normal one where he goes from like normal. 00:24:15 Speaker 4: That actor's name is edr Yeah, changes yeah. 00:24:19 Speaker 5: Yeah, Okay, we don't have that one. Oh well, uh shore. 00:24:23 Speaker 6: The Cash Hotel one twenty one, Cash Hotel whipping off the KKK hood to reveal. 00:24:28 Speaker 7: It was Obamba all along Obomba played again? Why is there an end in that? Obama? 00:24:41 Speaker 3: What is the. 00:24:42 Speaker 5: Colbert one eighteen? 00:24:46 Speaker 3: Oh? 00:24:46 Speaker 7: He did that? He did it? It was Oh man, I can't believe Stephen Colbert did that. 00:24:51 Speaker 5: Stephen Colbert did he went full elon. Must there Stephen Colbert trying. 00:24:56 Speaker 2: I think we have to get credit where it's due, though, because. 00:25:00 Speaker 4: And I've said this a couple other places, I'll say here too that Fox News has been great on this. Fox News has been all over this story. They've covered it. I know, Andrew, they had you on, They've been covering it in daytime. I mean it's they've just been all over the story. 00:25:13 Speaker 2: They really have. 00:25:14 Speaker 5: Yeah, well, you know, it's funny. So I get booked to do the Fox thing with Jesse about it, and I look at the dates of when they put Turning Point in Charlie, you know, on the hate Yeah, and it was late May of twenty twenty five, so that's the fifth month of the year. You go to September, it was less than four months, less than four months. So he gets put on a hate map. Four months later he gets killed by an assassin who says some hate can't be negotiated out. 00:25:47 Speaker 2: It was Memorial Day to Labor Day basically. 00:25:49 Speaker 5: Yeah. So, I mean, and if you kind of it, like we like to laugh at the SBLC, but their influence is tremendous. Not only are they you know, successful and ginning up a lot of money. By the way, after Charlottesville, their donations almost tripled in one year, So talk about a great ROI on investment, return on investment. They they funded one of the leaders of that rally, right, two hundred seventy thousand dollars. But we talked about the statue heat map that they have, a lot of people were tearing down the statues that the SBLC told them they should tear down, and then you could even trace the presidency of Joe Biden. The reason he ran is because he said Charlottesville, because he said that these white supremacists are taken over the country or something, which is bizarre, especially as the white populations dropping dramatically, which, by the way, one of the leaders of the SBLC has had famously a poster on the back of his wall during an interview that tracked the the decrease of the white percentage of the population and so deranged that that's real. Yeah, it's real. So anyways, there you could laugh at them. They are a former husk, hauloed out husk of their former self. But it's like, yeah, exactly and they still got eight hundred million dollars and they still inform the FBI, they still work with the dj at least they did during Biden years. 00:27:09 Speaker 3: You know, if this. 00:27:10 Speaker 6: Lawsuit succeeds, by the way, because they're claiming they fund raised using fraudulent YenS, it would allow the federal government to seize the money. 00:27:18 Speaker 5: Ooh good. 00:27:20 Speaker 6: Is a strategy they have gone for the left that tried to do the same thing to the NRA. They were going to seize all of the NRA's money and basically give it to anti gun groups. 00:27:28 Speaker 7: They failed to do so, but they came close. 00:27:31 Speaker 3: Yeah. 00:27:31 Speaker 5: I mean, I just think the SBOC is a really despicable organization and it really does put a target on your back if you get put on their infamous heat map. So I hope that to the extent, you know, more than the money, more than anything. It's kind of like, I hope that whatever power that is is broken, is shattered, that they are discredited to the point that they can't influence at least as many people. I'm sure there's going to be some people that still believe it, but that's really the goal, is that they they lose the power to target and put conservatives on their hit. 00:28:01 Speaker 7: List destroy the US heels. 00:28:06 Speaker 5: If you are a parent like me, sometimes you go through these growth spurts with your kids at home.

But it was Spirit Airlines is like the Ryanair of America, right essentially, Yeah, I slew it once, but it was like, if you bring up back. 00:30:25 Speaker 4: Ryanair is way better than Spirit way way. 00:30:28 Speaker 7: Ryanair is more ruthless. Ryanair is like you're also ruthless. 00:30:33 Speaker 6: You can get a super stripped down thing and you can fly somewhere for like thirty dollars. 00:30:38 Speaker 7: Yea Spirit Air doesn't go that extreme. 00:30:41 Speaker 5: Spirit Air was front not as good of a model. I remember when I lived in Europe in college for a semester. You know, I flew Ryan Air everywhere basically, yeah right, no, right, it's the only way I got it. Frew Ryan Air last fall, but no Spirit is around. 00:30:54 Speaker 6: I've flown Spirit multiple times, and truthful, I've never really had a bad experience with it. The main bad experience is if you used it to fly to d you fly into Baltimore. But anyway, Spirit Airlines is they're having a rough time right now. As you guys may have heard, gas prices have risen around the world due to you know, macroeconomic effects that can be unpredictable and that is placed budget airlines like Spirit in peril, but racing to the rescue is the Trump administration which is offering five hundred million dollars to bail out Spirit Airlines, which it says something about our federal government that five hundred million dollars bailout for a company like barely makes you blink. We probably spend five hundred million dollars to buy something screw that we use in. 00:31:33 Speaker 5: Like why would you you know, rush in to bail out something is horrendous and culturally, you know, problematic? Is Spirit? 00:31:42 Speaker 6: Is Spirit Airlines culturally problematic? Do you just have a problem with the color yellow? Do you have a problem with the other color that's on that plane? Andrew? 00:31:49 Speaker 5: I think it's bad for air travel and the culture of air travel. It's like the Carnival cruise line of of of airlines. You may have a point, but they you probably go on there and they're plane. 00:32:04 Speaker 3: I don't know. 00:32:04 Speaker 5: So this is an actually and you hate the playing rat. 00:32:08 Speaker 7: Luckily, there's noise canceling headphones that you can use to. 00:32:11 Speaker 5: Blot none of the passengers have enough social grace to do. 00:32:17 Speaker 7: But I can use noise canceling headphones. 00:32:20 Speaker 3: I don't. 00:32:20 Speaker 6: What I will say is arees I am shilling for Spirit Airlines. 00:32:25 Speaker 7: I will say this. I will say this. 00:32:27 Speaker 6: A funny thing that applies a lot to air travel compared to other industries is like a lot of people seem genuinely angry that people who aren't rich are able to fly on planes, because if you check flight prices from the nineteen seventies the nineteen eighties, it used to be a lot more expensive to fly and far fewer people had ever done it. I remember I only flew a handful of times before I was in high school. 00:32:52 Speaker 7: Uh, it was pretty. 00:32:53 Speaker 6: Common to meet people who'd never flown on a plane in their entire lives. It's a lot cheaper to fly now, it's a lot more accessible. One of the things like Spirit Airlines now, Frontier is good. Frontier is good. I'll never rid. 00:33:08 Speaker 5: Spirit. So I just googled what is the cheapest airlines? Said, Frontier and Spirit Airlines are generally the cheapest airlines for domestic use. 00:33:15 Speaker 6: I have a problem with Frontier not because of their service. My main problem with Frontier is when I'm searching for a flight somewhere, It'll always be gummed up by suggesting, well, actually the cheapest option is if you get on this Frontier plane, fly to Denver and then wait seventeen hours to take a follow up flight to another And that's annoying. You can usually you can out, but I have to go and do that. 00:33:36 Speaker 5: Yeah, which for clicking. 00:33:37 Speaker 4: We had a really we had a really bad experience in Frontier once where we were flying back from Orlando and I think it was like one of the seatbacks was. 00:33:46 Speaker 2: Down there at one point. 00:33:48 Speaker 4: And this was when our youngest was still a baby, and they'd oversold the flight or overbooked or whatever, and we're standing there at the door like when they you know when they say like line up if you have kids or whatever. So we're standing there at the door with the baby and they say, oh, you can't get on your over we're over sold, and like we have a baby, like we have children, and they just they just wouldn't let us on the flight. We were there plenty of time and all the rest of it. And yeah, that's so rent. I had to rent a car to drive home. Basically I'll just you know, drive all the way back up ninety five from Florida because Frontier wouldn't let us on with a baby, So I'm never going to forget that. 00:34:26 Speaker 5: Yeah. No, I I flew last time I flew frontier, the one of the windows had like tape around it, and I was like, this feels like a potential weak spot in the what's their tape around this? 00:34:37 Speaker 3: It help? Everything was fine, There wasn't. 00:34:40 Speaker 6: As as a man, I have that male experience of sometimes wanting to go and read historic plane disasters. There was a flight from Hawaii once where they had a vulnerable window window and they had an explosive decompression and it literally did just it ejected like two rows of seats and those people died and then no one else died and they successfully landed. 00:34:58 Speaker 7: But it just sucked it. You uh, seats out and that was the end of them. Could have been you, Andrew. I was like, but you missed out. That would probably been a peak experience. 00:35:07 Speaker 6: Andrew, you have to admit, like you would have died, but it would have been really exciting. 00:35:10 Speaker 5: I lasted. I would have enjoyed it. For not enjoyed it, I would have been terrified. I don't I'm not a good flyer as it is. 00:35:16 Speaker 8: By the way, my fiance is not a good flyer either, I'm a bad flyer. 00:35:20 Speaker 3: I get through it. I get through it. 00:35:22 Speaker 5: But yeah, that's the thing. 00:35:23 Speaker 3: So actually, that's. 00:35:24 Speaker 5: Why I took the Red Eye to Philly, because at least I slept through two thirds of the flights, which was pretty good for me. I can't sleep on most flights, but red eyes. I'm just so tired that I'm like, Okay. 00:35:34 Speaker 6: Caboosa is a hot take. He says flying should be a luxury. The prole masses should not be allowed to fly in the sky like a piker. Yeah, he's been there, being these elitis here. I think people should have access to air travel. 00:35:46 Speaker 3: I think. 00:35:46 Speaker 6: I think the ability to travel to distant places at a cheap price is good. 00:35:51 Speaker 5: Is exactly why America is getting overrun with it. 00:35:53 Speaker 6: And it's good that we have affordable options like Spirit Airlines, which you can choose to not fly on. 00:35:59 Speaker 7: I get. 00:36:00 Speaker 6: I also find it weird when people get angry they say Spirit's bad, so you shouldn't so like it. 00:36:04 Speaker 7: Should go just fly on Delta if you want a nicer plane. 00:36:08 Speaker 5: We're missing the whole big part of the problem with your argument is that you think it's you think that the federal government should come in and bail out a failing airline. 00:36:15 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, going out of business? Why is it going out of business? 00:36:21 Speaker 5: Question? 00:36:21 Speaker 7: Blake. 00:36:22 Speaker 6: I would ideally not bail out any companies, but me too. You know, we bailed out, we build out Silicon Valley Bank because we disagreed with Yes, and we bailed out. You know, we're bailing out a lot of companies. Yeah, and we're going to bail out all of them. Government Motor five hundred million member. Remember we used to call GM government motors after the bailout and uh, I mean, why would you bail out Spirit? It's a terrible brand, it's a terrible paint job, it's bad service frontier. 00:36:50 Speaker 5: Yeah, let's let let another airline buy up the assets. It'll be fine. 00:36:53 Speaker 3: Like that's yeah. 00:36:55 Speaker 2: What if what hold on? 00:36:57 Speaker 3: Hold on? 00:36:58 Speaker 4: If we're going to nationalized Spirit, what if we could say, I don't know, put Steven Miller in charge of it and turn it into a deportation plan. 00:37:07 Speaker 5: What if the federal government bought up all the planes for the five hundred million dollars pennies on the dollar and used them as deportation planes. 00:37:14 Speaker 6: That's a cool idea, This is great. Or if if they bailed them out of the deal. Was they had to supply flights for that? That's or what if we spent the five hundred million dollars and used it as a bribe to have Ryanair expand into America? 00:37:30 Speaker 4: Yeah, why don't we have Ryanair? I guess there's like regulations and maybe regulations. 00:37:34 Speaker 6: I think also probably average flight distance in the US is longer. In Europe they can have all those profitable things where you hop from London to Paris for Yeah, I. 00:37:42 Speaker 5: Fee's like twenty game with Ryanair when you're in Europe as you just like you get on you Google like because they tell you could get a cheap deal. They actually you don't have to go hunting for it. They show you what you can get a hot deal on. You're like, I wasn't planning on going to Frankfurt today? 00:37:56 Speaker 3: Put what Yeah? 00:37:57 Speaker 6: When I and then you realize I would my cousin like an hour and a half outside when my cousin joined the convent, we flew from Naples to Palermo and it was just because right, it was well it was part of the trip, but it was twenty five dollars. 00:38:10 Speaker 5: Yeah, so I I agree. I think that's really fun. That's a fun part about Europe that we can't really match. But it's probably to your point. Probably like the distance between worthwhile airports is pretty far. The one thing with Ryan Air though in Europe is that you have to really look at the airport you're flying into and then google the travel because like it'll tell you can go to London. But it's like, was it Gatwick, there's one other one, there's a London. 00:38:35 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, there's Gatwick and Luton. 00:38:38 Speaker 5: Luton. I thought it was like London Handstead or so I'll have to look at this one and he throws the main one. But they don't fly any heat. 00:38:45 Speaker 4: That's my point saying like there's like these these like Ryan Air uses like the other. 00:38:49 Speaker 5: One Gatwick, Gatwick, Lenn Gatwick. So it'll in Stanstead, yeah London, stand said Letting. Yeah, you're right. So so the Stanstead and Gatwick are like really far out, so you're yeah flying Because I was studying in Spain and so I would go on to like the Seville airport. I would try, you know, take a train up there, and then it would be like where can I go? And it would oftentimes London would be one of the options because it's a major area. But then you go to Gatwick or Stands Dead and you you're you're like three hours outside of London. Somehow, that's how they get away with it. 00:39:21 Speaker 6: So speaking of London, we could go to the next topic if we want, all right, or we could or we could dwell on the spirit question. 00:39:28 Speaker 5: Are we going to banning flags? 00:39:30 Speaker 7: Oh it's not flags. Yeah, we're talking about something else. 00:39:33 Speaker 6: So the British government, brit and it's great wisdom, is banning facts for those born after the year two thousand and eight. 00:39:42 Speaker 3: Cigarettes everybody, Yes, yes. 00:39:44 Speaker 6: Indeed you should explain that. So in British slang that does that word does refer to cigarette bundle and the British government kind of came out of nowhere England and in Britain. What they are doing is they are banning smoking, but they're not just banning it for every one in true boomer fashion. Sorry to all you boomers out there, but this is definitely a boomer move if I ever saw one. They are allowing older people to continue smoking, but anyone born two thousand and nine or onwards, they'll have a steadily escalating band. Basically, if you're becoming an adult. Right now, you can never ever buy a cigarette, and they're gonna raise the minimum age for buying them by one year every year. 00:40:25 Speaker 5: Thought about this, so like at some point, you know, if you're like a sixty year old, you'd be like, give me a pack of smokes and they'll be like, nope, it's sixty one and over there. Only yeah, do you think they'll they'll still be like some random places itself. But this doesn't this doesn't account for like shoulder tapping, right at least in the short term, right, like, hey, you're a year older than me, you were born in two thousand and eight, so you go ahead and give me the pack. 00:40:49 Speaker 7: This is Britain. So Britain's really authoritarian. 00:40:52 Speaker 6: So they're the kind of country that would in this future you envision, probably do things like I'm really distracted because. 00:40:58 Speaker 7: They're showing you give I'm really distracted. 00:41:01 Speaker 6: We have a TV set up here and it's showing an episode of Yu Gi Oh for some reason. Sorry, Total loss five. Britain is an authoritarian enough country that what Britain would do is they will have a network of cameras everywhere, which they already have. Just total panopticon, and they will use AI to detect you if you are engaging in that behavior of having someone buy the cigarettes for you, give them to you, and then they will send in their hid job wearing Gestapo police to kick in your door and say that you didn't have a license for those cigarettes, and they're going to pay. They're going to find you fifty pounds, which, because Britain is an impoverished country, poorer than Mississippi would be like seventy percent of your. 00:41:40 Speaker 5: In real news is the fact that the UK, if it was our first fifty first state, would be the poorest state. 00:41:44 Speaker 7: In the Union by a mile too, like not even close. That's wild, it's incredible. 00:41:48 Speaker 3: But treat them like a proper country. 00:41:50 Speaker 7: They pulled the. 00:41:50 Speaker 6: British and they thought the British people thought they would be the seventh richest state. 00:41:54 Speaker 7: They're completely full of it. They're delulu, delulu. 00:41:57 Speaker 4: But is that is that with GDP a crap capita or is that with purchasing power? 00:42:03 Speaker 6: I can't imagine purchasing power in the UK is any better where you can pay four thousand dollars for a like what five hundred square foot flag? 00:42:10 Speaker 5: Let's see what let's see. Uh, I'm just. 00:42:13 Speaker 2: Saying, like, let's let's compare apples apples. 00:42:17 Speaker 5: Britain would be poor state in US. Mississippi governor responds with vicious one liner. 00:42:22 Speaker 6: Like I have to imagine purchasing power. Parody just makes things worse for Britain. You go to Britain and it's like eight pounds for a sandwich, which would be thirteen dollars here. 00:42:30 Speaker 5: Basically, oh yeah, for sure we'd be in the top ten, maybe top five on a good date. No fifty first, like. 00:42:37 Speaker 7: Compare Mississippi to Britain. 00:42:39 Speaker 6: In Mississippi, I bet you could buy a four thousand square foot house for four hundred and fifty. 00:42:45 Speaker 5: This is funny. So Governor Tate reeves the one liner. I want to put this up on up on the screen for. 00:42:54 Speaker 2: P Yeah, you're right, it's actually still over with purchasing power. 00:42:56 Speaker 5: He goes, as we say, miss higher Yeah. So it's so the governor's reply to this guy goes, if the UK joined the US as the fifty verse state, we'd be the poorest state in the entire Union. Mississippi, which is portrayed as swamp dwelling hillbillies in majority of international media is above us. 00:43:13 Speaker 3: I don't think people grasp how. 00:43:14 Speaker 5: Far we fall on in real terms. So Tate Reeves goes as we say in Mississippi, bless your heart, or as you say in the UK Aslama Lake. 00:43:23 Speaker 7: Yeah. 00:43:24 Speaker 4: Yeah, But do you know what though, I'm gonna I'm gonna push back a little bit on that, because like GDP in general isn't a good measure of median household income. 00:43:35 Speaker 2: You know, it's because you're you're It's. 00:43:37 Speaker 4: Like a measure of a bucket of all companies and all things in your economy. So just because the GDP is doing well, it's like stock market is going up, so that means that everybody's got money in their pocket. 00:43:49 Speaker 2: But it's not true because you're. 00:43:50 Speaker 4: Averaging in corporate earnings along with individual families and individual family earnings. That's why, like GDP just in general, isn't the best measure for something like. 00:43:59 Speaker 2: This, Like you want to look I'd want to look. 00:44:01 Speaker 4: At meeting household income a couple other different things before we actually like like crap on them. 00:44:08 Speaker 5: Well, it is what it is, and I do think that that's a it's one measure. I agree like cause he for example, I lived in Spain in college, I already brought this up for a semester a little bit longer. It was like, I think seven eight months, and I think it was nineteen percent. They called it a stotton pao, which just meant unemployed, like living off the door, living off the dole. And I would say the quality of life even for the people that were not working. In the south of Spain, it was like a hugely high unemployment rate, but the quality of life was still pretty high. They complained about it, they were upset about it, but it was they all got by and they just sat at their bars and drank and smoked cigarettes and walked around, hung out in the plazas. It's a life, they were. 00:44:54 Speaker 6: It's a it's a decaying life. It's a decationally the money runs the boomers supremacy in Europe is actually way more extreme than in the US. 00:45:04 Speaker 5: Okay, hold on, without alienating some of our audience, explain what you mean by boomer supremaciy as. 00:45:08 Speaker 6: In so like everything revolving around the priorities of pensioners to the exclusion of pensioners what they would call retirees, much more extreme, like in France, the average it's gotten so bad where the average retirees pension from the government is actually above the average income of which is the way, which is not how it is in the US wealth people have good net worths, but your Social Security payment is not above the median income of the United States. 00:45:34 Speaker 7: Is that actually is the case? 00:45:35 Speaker 3: Is this? Why? 00:45:36 Speaker 5: Okay, so you just said that in France the average pensioner is making more than the medium average medium income in France, and part of that is birth rates. 00:45:47 Speaker 7: But what's funny is that is that is the justification. 00:45:50 Speaker 6: The justification for it is, oh, we need all these people to pay our pensions which are out of control. But it doesn't work because actually a lot of these people just don't work and they are themselves just making the system worse and worse. 00:46:01 Speaker 7: But Britain has a very funny one. 00:46:03 Speaker 6: In Britain, they have a thing called the triple lock and it is politically impossible to ever change the triple lock. You have ever heard of this? 00:46:10 Speaker 3: Yeah? 00:46:10 Speaker 5: I have, Yeah, I don't remember exactly. 00:46:12 Speaker 6: So the triple lock is by law in Britain they have to raise the amount that of pension that's paid out to a person each year and it has to go by either the rate of inflation as they calculate it some sort of. I believe the average like wage in the country is basically one of three things. 00:46:30 Speaker 7: Actually I should just check what it is. Yeah, the triple lock. It is one of the measures. 00:46:37 Speaker 6: It's either inflation, average earnings based on the average earnings in the country, or two and a half percent. Whichever is basically produces the highest increase. And so if even if there's no inflation, even if there's no increase in cost of living, even if they're in a recession, basically you still get a two and a half percent increase. But if it's above two and a half percent in terms of inflation, it'll go up to that one. This guarantee, it is a mathematical certainty. It is a mathematical law of the universe. This will eventually cause them to go broke, so can't get rid of it. 00:47:06 Speaker 5: Yeah, so you know, it's interesting, and that's crazy that I didn't know that they'd worked. I mean, especially with their zero growth that they have over there. But I remember, I don't know why this keeps coming up today, but I remember I was traveling when I was living in Spain, were in Portugal, and we went to get some food and we're sitting at this cafe and this homeless sprit. He was homeless, but he had been living in Portugal because it was warmer. I guess it was homeless. His clothes are all tattered and he was sitting there and he was having a beer at like I don't know, ten am. And we somehow get into this conversation with this guy and he was over the moon because he said, tomorrow is the day that I qualify for my British pension and I won't have to live this way anymore. And I was like, so, like, how long has it been since you lived in England. He's like, oh, about eighteen years. So the guy hadn't been paying into the system for eighteen years, but he was going to get locked into his British pension even though he's living in Portugal as a homeless guy. 00:47:58 Speaker 6: If you look at the rhetoric in Britain and similar countries, it is genuinely depressing. Like the national ideology of Britain, like they're defining reason to exist as a country. If you even listen to their actual government ministers is basically we don't have America's healthcare system. I'm not even making this up. Gordon Brown once they're they're Prime Minister once suggested we should have a national day like other countries do, because they don't have an independence Day or anything. What should we use and his idea was, how about the day when we set up the NHS. Our defining existence of the country is we have a public healthcare system and then yeah, their pension system. Everything revolves around this. It's very it truly is. It's anti achievement, it's anti greatness. It's very much a I want to maximize the amount I can sponge off of the government. 00:48:45 Speaker 5: You sound like you're just like very pro social murder by capitalists, perhaps pigs. 00:48:50 Speaker 6: I mean doing a lot of social murders. We're achieving a lot of other things. 00:48:54 Speaker 2: Social murder, social murder. Talk about that real. 00:48:57 Speaker 7: Quick, maybe, But how do we actually feel it? 00:49:01 Speaker 2: No, definitely, actually because Andrews brot it up. 00:49:04 Speaker 5: It's crazy, No, I totally. It's It's Frederick Ingels from the eighteen hundreds and Hassan park Piker's sitting there. He just read a book for the first time or something, and he starts, you know, waxing poetic with the New York Times who just nods along like, oh, social murder, Yeah, Luigi Maggioni, cool, really sick stuff. But go ahead, go ahead. We riffed on it this morning, so it's your turn, Jack. 00:49:28 Speaker 1: No. 00:49:28 Speaker 4: I mean, it just goes to show you, right that that these guys the same way you saw how these type guys reacting when Charlie was shot. 00:49:36 Speaker 2: It's the same way that they're up there. 00:49:37 Speaker 4: Talking about how oh, well, you know, actually this guy deserved it. And I can understand why because he committed social murder we're talking about so so Sam Piker was up there justifying the murder of the United Health O Brian Thompson, because he was saying that the refusal to fund the healthcare or health. 00:50:01 Speaker 2: Needs of variety of people of the service. 00:50:04 Speaker 4: Claims, et cetera, amounted to something called social murder. And because he had committed social murder again without any like trial or evidence or anything, it was okay then and justified for Luigi Maggioni to shoot. 00:50:20 Speaker 2: Him in the street. 00:50:21 Speaker 4: And and we already know by the way, and and Blake, you might be more up on this than me, but I believe a number of the charges have been dropped from Luigi MAGGIONI, right. 00:50:31 Speaker 7: I haven't followed it. 00:50:32 Speaker 5: Well, well, they can't get the death penalty on him anymore, charge already. 00:50:36 Speaker 4: Yeah, just can't be down penalty federal or state, So right, which is I mean, it's crazy. They're they're already like losing multiple levels of charges on this guy because he again did this in a blue district and the blue judges are just totally okay with it. And they've got a ton of supporters running around. And remember they were selling the Luigi merchandise. There was a musical which I believe debuted in San Francisco and the Renz New York City, Tila Wrenz talked about how you know, he was dreamy and she was in his fan club and all the rest of this. 00:51:10 Speaker 2: And so it just remains to be seen. These Bolsheviks will kill us all. 00:51:15 Speaker 4: They are very happy about it. That's why I've talked about, you know, oh the infighting. Oh, everyone wants to play this infighting game, and it's like, no, these guys literally want to kill us. They you know, they already murdered the guy who used to co host this show, and they will go to the New York times and talk about social murder and how it was a good thing, and they'll keep going. They will keep going, and they will not stop going until they have been stopped. 00:51:38 Speaker 5: Yeah, and it comes from Angles, who was the collaborator for Karl Marx. So that's just a son Piker saying, yeah, I'm a communist. And by the way, the Communists killed you know, over one hundred million people in the twentieth century doing stuff like this. 00:51:50 Speaker 8: So if we need any it needed anything else to show that he does. 00:51:55 Speaker 5: The communists they will rationalize any type of like violence if they think it's you know, if they've got a moral framework upon which, you know, however shaky or feeble or dumb, they will they will commit murder based upon that moral framework. That's why we need Jesus, Dear Lord. 00:52:16 Speaker 6: Hey everyone, we're excited to tell you about Charlie's favorite supplement.

Because I looked at res I was and Rescott into talk and I was like, OK. 00:54:55 Speaker 7: He's getting the shakes because he's got we have to get. We did promise this. So this is all there's been. 00:55:02 Speaker 6: There's a secondary so this all, this all blew up because there's a background news story Pete Davidson, who I'm told is a famous person. He's younger than me. He is a comedian who dates hot women. Is he funny? 00:55:14 Speaker 3: He he's a comedian. He's an SNL. 00:55:17 Speaker 7: A lot of people are comedians though. No. 00:55:19 Speaker 5: So here's the thing. I remember having the same conversation with my wife and a bunch of her friends, and then they do not think he's attractive, to be fair, But their whole thing was he's got a thing, He's got something that's fair. 00:55:33 Speaker 6: I guess that's that's the that's anyway, Pete Davidson is a comedian, just like Dave Smith, I guess. And then anyway, he's so, he's a comedian and he had a gazillion tattoos, over two hundred, I believe, but recently he has been getting them all lasered off to the extent it's possible. It's pretty tough to fully remove stuff to the extent he has. 00:55:55 Speaker 7: He's not anti tattoo. He actually has a tattoo along his ear that's his daughter's name. 00:56:01 Speaker 3: But he also still has chestetoes that are for his dad. 00:56:04 Speaker 6: Yeah, so he's but he's pretty radically cut them back. It looks like he maybe got rid of his notorious RBG tattoo that he seems to have. 00:56:11 Speaker 7: I'm seeing in this picture you. 00:56:13 Speaker 6: Gots you gotta Ruth Bader Ginsburg tattoo. Uh, they're all disappearing. And so this prompted a bigger debate, which is are the tattoos bad or not? 00:56:23 Speaker 7: Should people be getting them? 00:56:24 Speaker 5: All? Right? But there's so many good tattoos rust before tattoos thirty six. 00:56:31 Speaker 8: I don't know why I put myself on this tattoo alcoly total tattoos, I have twenty, you have twenty, all, Russ, that's me. 00:56:40 Speaker 3: Wait, hold on go to that other one? Yeah, the other Yeah, so that's you. 00:56:44 Speaker 8: Yes, so that's twenty seventeen me, that's uh yeah, so I am twenty two dude. Okay, So hilariously enough about this. This was my like beanie stage where I used to like have it on the back of my had to keep like my hair up. 00:57:01 Speaker 3: And that was also when I so. 00:57:03 Speaker 4: We just see Russ now and that picture. Can we can we do that? 00:57:09 Speaker 5: Holy cow, Russ, because I've never seen your chin. I mean yeah, no, no, got it? Can we side like enlarge it side to side. The podcast is going to really miss out on this. We recommend. 00:57:21 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm sorry, podcast, this is like you just got to watch it. 00:57:24 Speaker 5: Oh gosh, don't look at me. 00:57:28 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know why. 00:57:29 Speaker 5: I think we've messed up the studio. 00:57:34 Speaker 8: So this was all before so hilariously enough. Uh, when I got into college, I started trying to grow facial hair. The only thing I could grow was a goatee. So for yeah, so for like four years all I had. 00:57:48 Speaker 2: Was a teach blake how to do that. 00:57:50 Speaker 8: And then and that's when I started growing out the hair. I started growing out the beard, and then I started I started adding tattoos. Actually, the first tattoo I got was right after I graduated high school. 00:58:04 Speaker 2: It is ahead, make that face. 00:58:09 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that's my normal smile. 00:58:11 Speaker 7: What was the first tattoo? 00:58:13 Speaker 8: It's It was on my wrist. I've covered it up since then, but it said relax. 00:58:18 Speaker 7: Oh are your anti relaxing though? 00:58:21 Speaker 3: H No, it was mainly because my parents used it against me. 00:58:26 Speaker 6: So this is I feel like we're getting a message here, which is wait, wait wait you later came to regret your hand. 00:58:34 Speaker 5: You got like multiples you can tell one. 00:58:37 Speaker 3: So I. 00:58:40 Speaker 8: Consider them as like, so I have lived free, died, well, I count live free, and I count the words as one. 00:58:50 Speaker 3: Tattoo and then don't go gentle. And then I got more hands. I just finished this hand finally. 00:58:57 Speaker 5: So the hands got to hurt though, because the bones are. 00:59:02 Speaker 3: Honestly, the thing that heard the most was getting. 00:59:04 Speaker 5: Closer to the palm. 00:59:06 Speaker 3: That's what hurts. 00:59:07 Speaker 5: There's one of our staff that had a tattoo on the rib cageage it now. I said, I said, did you do you regret that one? And the answer was yes, because the ribcage it hurt. 00:59:18 Speaker 2: So was that a girl? 00:59:20 Speaker 5: I would rather just. 00:59:22 Speaker 6: Yes, Yeah, so as first of all, the number of people with tattoos has gone up. We're getting very close to the point where a majority of people under forty are going to have a tattoo. The majority of women under forty already have one. In fact, it's like fifty six percent for women under thirty have at least one tattoo. So you are now actually the rebel if you don't have one. 00:59:46 Speaker 5: But hold on, this is kind of like is the green head pledge. And by the way, I have zero tattoos, but I will tell you that some girls have. I guess you would say more tasteful, right what an apologies to anybody in the audience that has this. But like where I get kind of like it's the tattoos like on the back of the cat, like a huge one on the back. 01:00:07 Speaker 3: Of a I think. 01:00:13 Speaker 4: Is that girls don't know how to get tattoos, and girls always have like bad tattoos. It looks like when you have like a toddler with a little stamp toy and it's just like. 01:00:22 Speaker 2: Blip blip blip blip blip lip. 01:00:26 Speaker 3: There's a style what's kind of called. 01:00:29 Speaker 4: Subtlets just look like that with the toddler with the baby stamp, but just like stamping all over in random places that don't look asthetic and it looks terrible. 01:00:39 Speaker 8: Yeah, it's definitely definitely. Placement is a big is a is a key thing? 01:00:44 Speaker 5: Is that that that the tramp stamp became a thing, But there must have been a time before the tramp stamp became like a became like a cliche cultural thing where dudes were getting them in the small of their backs too. There's some dudes walking around with tramp stamps. There's gotta be And. 01:01:01 Speaker 7: Yeah, exactly, I mean, I'm so, I'm just my point of view. 01:01:05 Speaker 6: So let's remind people what the Greerhead Pledge was because we debated this back when Charlotte We're back. We debated this with Charlie almost three years ago. Now, the Greerhead Pledge is from a guy, Scott Greer. He's a blogger on sub stack writer. He's in some other magazines. I think he gets he's in the American Conservative sometimes. But he calls it the Greerhead Pledge because his fans are called greer Heads. And it's four things to sort of fight against the cultural and esthetic decay of America, the third worlding of America and the four planks of it are you take it as a pledge. So I will not smoke weed, I will not watch a Marvel movie. I will not listen to rap music. And then this is the newest point, because it used to be I will not watch the NFL, I believe. But that was a little too extreme, and he said that the NFL did have good aspects, like there's bad stuff in the NFL, but it's. 01:01:54 Speaker 7: Not it's not it's not a huge corrupt. 01:01:56 Speaker 6: So he replaced it with I will not get a tattoo, and he has a pretty good argument for it, which is basically that tattoos are spreading beyond the traditional groups and beyond the acceptable parts of the body. Once upon a time, only bikers and ex cons had tattoos. Now you see them on viristas and on sales managers. It used to be only men got tattoos. Now a majority of women under forty have tats. People used to cover up their tattoos when they are out in public, and only prison gang members would show off full body tats all over the place. Now you see face neck tattoos all over the place, out in the street, and tattoos this is Scott's writing this tattoos have turned into an epidemic of ugliness. Publicly visible tattoos symbolize the vulgarization that is eating away at our civilization, and they tarnish the appearance of a person bearing one. And that is why the pledge is I will not get a tattoo. 01:02:55 Speaker 5: Russ. 01:02:55 Speaker 8: Your response, I guess I'm responsible for the degradation of the society. 01:03:00 Speaker 6: The vulgarization says, imagine a world without weed, without rap, without Marvel movies, and without tattoos. It's the world we want, and taking a step towards that world begins at the individual. 01:03:13 Speaker 5: It's true, I do actually believe in that last sentence. But then I know people like Russ, and I'm like, well, it's all right that he hasn't. 01:03:19 Speaker 3: I mean, that's how I feel because I haven't. 01:03:21 Speaker 6: Personally, I'm not anti Russ, but I think I think Russ. I think I think you would be better without tattoos. 01:03:26 Speaker 7: I'm just gonna be fine. 01:03:27 Speaker 8: So actually, uh, one of the reasons actually that I've wanted tattoos since I saw tattoos, since the first I don't even remember the first movie that I watched that had somebody with a tattoo. But I remember being young and wanting tattoos and it was funny. And when I finally did get the eagle and then the this heart. 01:03:53 Speaker 5: It was one of those that's like a human heart pumping. 01:03:56 Speaker 3: Yes, it's not like for the. 01:03:59 Speaker 11: I got Aragorn, I got narsl Q, so I got yeah there it is. 01:04:10 Speaker 8: So I got Narcel through the sword and there's a lot, there's a keyhole and it actually it just kind of describes a lot of my personal journey. 01:04:20 Speaker 3: A lot of most of my tattoos, especially on this. 01:04:24 Speaker 8: Arm, are kind of my value. It's it's it's my story. It's it's kind of where where my journey has led. 01:04:37 Speaker 3: And it's also I mean, this clock is Matthew. 01:04:42 Speaker 8: Talks about the sparrows when Jesus is like, look at the sparrows. 01:04:49 Speaker 3: I take care of them. 01:04:50 Speaker 8: They wor And that's having being somebody who's had anxiety and that kind of stuff. 01:04:57 Speaker 3: That was that was a very big scripture for me. 01:05:00 Speaker 5: Well, uh yeah, Jack, do you do you do you judge people with tattoos? Are you a greer head when it comes to the pledge? 01:05:08 Speaker 4: I don't judge people tattoos as much as. 01:05:12 Speaker 2: I used to. 01:05:16 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I'm the only guy who's ever gone through the Navy without having a drink or getting a tattoo. 01:05:21 Speaker 2: So I've definitely seen definitely seen a lot of it. 01:05:24 Speaker 4: I mean yeah with again like sailors, bikers like this is that that was kind of like what tattoos were for in the past, you know, I I'm generally I'm generally of the view though that Like it's I mean, I I just don't think they're a static, right, I never have. I think, you know, why do you why put a bumper sticker on a ferrari? 01:05:44 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, Like, like if you want to, you want. 01:05:47 Speaker 5: To in this instance. 01:05:51 Speaker 4: So it's just true, like if you see, here's what I say right now, I see my beautiful wife, I see tiny tay and I and I think she's absolutely gorgeous, perfect, and I think, like, what would a tattoo do to that appearance? And it's like it would ruin it for me because it's like she looks I. 01:06:10 Speaker 6: Will say, like when you want there, you know, there are models and such who have tattoos, but when they want them to look maximally hot, they are air brushing out those tattoos every time. 01:06:20 Speaker 5: What about Pete hag Seth thirty seven. 01:06:25 Speaker 3: Yes, yes, Base thirty yes, Base. It's just photo Well, because he's got the chest, the chest, I don't like it. 01:06:38 Speaker 7: I think I will put it this way. 01:06:40 Speaker 6: There's a reason there's never been a US president with a visible tattoo. There's a reason there's never been a King of England with a. 01:06:47 Speaker 3: Tattoo, at least Blake. 01:06:49 Speaker 8: Would you rather have a girl who's been with ten guys or has or has ten tattoos? 01:06:54 Speaker 6: Well, I think there's going to be a correlation there, but that's well known at that court. At this I'll be frank. This is a big reason the crazy guys will like kind of like tattoos. Is the perception is that a woman who gets tattoos is easier. That is the perception. 01:07:12 Speaker 5: Okay, but go with his his hypothetical. I mean he's making a fairly good point. Uh, ten tattoos, zero men, ten men, zero tattoos, You got to pick one of the other. 01:07:23 Speaker 6: I mean probably the zero men one. But again, in real life they correlate and also and the point is is they both they both lower attractiveness, which is why we're making the comparison. 01:07:33 Speaker 5: That is true. 01:07:36 Speaker 3: I think also I. 01:07:38 Speaker 4: Also would notice I also note that that it's kind of kind of interesting, how you know, when it comes to you know, when it comes to iconography, when it comes to tattoos, Suddenly everybody loves the Catholic iconography when they want to get tattoos. 01:07:54 Speaker 8: I mean fair, But I'm also I like, I like the Crusades. 01:07:57 Speaker 2: Would what would process the famously? 01:08:03 Speaker 3: Yeah, I know they're Catholic. 01:08:05 Speaker 4: Someone gets I get I say, like all the based all debate like Saint Michael the archangel because it's. 01:08:12 Speaker 3: It's also based in history. 01:08:15 Speaker 7: I will just know there is there isn't good in the Bible. Don't get tattooed. 01:08:20 Speaker 4: It is. 01:08:20 Speaker 3: It's good. That's it. 01:08:22 Speaker 8: That's that gets back to the point of like, one of the greatest things that that the Catholic Church produced throughout the Middle Ages was the iconography and the art. And that's where we gained as a society. We gained a lot of our value. 01:08:40 Speaker 5: Am trying to tell me that the Protestants couldn't have done the Sistine Actually, as a Protestant, I agree, I don't think they could. 01:08:46 Speaker 2: Where's the Protestantist chap I don't think that. 01:08:49 Speaker 5: Where's the Catholic Sistine Chapel since assist In chapel. But that's that's fine, it's right there in Rome. 01:08:56 Speaker 3: All I'm saying. 01:08:57 Speaker 5: All I'm saying is Barcelona. 01:08:59 Speaker 8: If cathol church churches can have igraphy and can have art on the ceilings, I can have art and an iconography on my body. 01:09:11 Speaker 5: Okay, go to the Bible verse. 01:09:12 Speaker 7: All right, let's go. We've got let's see what is a Bible? 01:09:16 Speaker 2: It isn't it like Orthodox Jewish cemeteries. 01:09:22 Speaker 6: Do not cut your bodies for the dead, or put tattoo marks on yourself? 01:09:27 Speaker 7: I am the Lord. 01:09:28 Speaker 5: Wait, hold on, what is the first mark. 01:09:32 Speaker 7: Do not put? 01:09:33 Speaker 6: Do not cut your bodies for the dead? I think that would be maybe a method of mourning. Is like you'd make yourself believe. But it says that, or put tattoo marks upon yourself. It doesn't say just do the former doesn't say that end. It says don't do that, or don't get tattoos of the dead. Or is it saying don't get tattoos at all? It just says it says, do not cut your bodies for the dead or put tattoo marks on yourselves. And at the least I will note ortho box Jews, known for their pretty rigid adherents to these Old Testament laws. 01:10:04 Speaker 7: Do not allow tattoos. I think you can't even be buried in a Jewish cemetery if you have them. 01:10:09 Speaker 3: Also, don't believe that Jesus is the Messiah. 01:10:12 Speaker 5: Forty five that's true, They says. One will say I am the lords, and another will write, even brand or tattoo upon his hand, I am the lords. 01:10:23 Speaker 7: Let's see, uh duh. 01:10:27 Speaker 3: The thing about is they have forty nine. 01:10:29 Speaker 5: It says God has a picture of you tattooed on the palm of his hand. 01:10:32 Speaker 3: The thing about Leviticus is that it doesn't say that. 01:10:34 Speaker 7: God's not allowed the tattoo. 01:10:35 Speaker 2: It says God's allowed to where he wants. 01:10:38 Speaker 7: Yeah, God can do a lot of things. God can say he's God. You can't say you're God. 01:10:41 Speaker 5: So, but we were talking about if this was ceremonial laws. There are different categories of laws. 01:10:47 Speaker 6: Some Oh here we go, what uh oh, yeah, this is this is getting deep into the biblical Exejesus. 01:10:53 Speaker 5: I'm just saying there are categories. Some are legal some are spiritual ceremonial. Some have to do with civil governance. Right, so depending on the type of law that we're talking about, they may or may not have an application to Matthew. 01:11:10 Speaker 8: Matthew five seventeen says, do not think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets. I have not come to abolish them. I have come to fulfill them. So Jesus is the fulfillment of Old Testament law, which. 01:11:22 Speaker 2: A mental theology baby. 01:11:24 Speaker 8: Which then negates the need for the levitical laws. And being that they were ceremonial. Being also that if we look back at the time period of the Israelites, they were dealing with a nation of the Canaanites that was extremely pagan and so they were doing blood sacrifices, they were doings, yeah, overtly pagan They were overtly pagan Ah. 01:11:52 Speaker 3: And so. 01:11:55 Speaker 8: That that obviously God was writing a law to the Israelites who had just come out of Egypt, who didn't have a set framework, because again this is a this is a body of people that just spent how many centuries being slaves and being under the oppression of the Egyptians. So they come out of that they don't have any idea or any hey ideology of what their guys society is supposed to. 01:12:21 Speaker 6: I'm checking the whole chapter from Leviticus, okay that the tattoo line comes from, and I feel like the immediate follow up verse right after that, do not put tattooed marketing yourselves, might be related. It says, do not degrade your daughter by making her a prostitute, or the land will turn to prostitution and be filled with wickedness. 01:12:43 Speaker 5: This is what gir was trying to get at. Yeah, he just didn't say it. 01:12:45 Speaker 6: Distinctly, Observe my Sabbaths and have reverence for my sanctuary. 01:12:49 Speaker 7: I am the Lord. 01:12:50 Speaker 2: You know what? You know what's speaking of EGYPTO. 01:12:51 Speaker 4: That actually reminds me something that one of one cool group that does have tattoos is the Coptic Christians in Egypt. So to Christians particularly, I think when they're kind of young, I don't I don't know how old exactly, but they will get across tattooed right on the inside, and they all have it. And even though they live in Muslim areas where the Muslims have been like I mean, as you can imagine just horrific in terms of persecution and slaughter of the Christians that copy Christians in Egypt and across the Middle East will get that cross tattoo. 01:13:25 Speaker 2: So I'm like, can't be against that? Like that's pretty based. 01:13:29 Speaker 5: Well, I mean, listen, I'll just say I don't have a moral obligation for it, because I do think it was a ceremonial law that I would put I would chalk that tattoo thing up to I don't think it's a moral law, and I would say that there is you need to guard against legalism. I don't like tattoos personally in most situations because I find them to be esthetically displeasing. When I meet Russ who sort of like the whole mo fits it, like, does I have zero problem with it? 01:13:56 Speaker 7: I can tolerate them. 01:13:57 Speaker 3: I don't. 01:13:58 Speaker 6: I find it fun to bring that up, But I don't know if I would consider it immoral necessarily. But my main thing is, yeah, I kind of go with Scott sense that I think it's generally ugly to have tattoos everywhere. I think a lot of people end up getting tattoos they regret. I think they get tattoos that age badly. I think it goes. I think in general, I think women are just more attractive without tattoos. And so to the extent, it's good to be attractive, it's good to be beautiful. 01:14:24 Speaker 5: Chat says, does the chat like tattoos. 01:14:26 Speaker 7: It's divided. 01:14:27 Speaker 3: It is very divided. It is very divided. 01:14:29 Speaker 4: What I will say and I can I tell you a story about about real quick, just tiny on tiny tay. And so I like having no tattoos was a big like that was like a hard note for me with uh, you know back when I was single, and it was like it was like no tattos, no no smoking, and like I did I was okay with like I didn't drink, but I didn't. I was like okay with a little bit of drinking and uh, but you know, I prefer a non drinker. But I was like, you know, like just in today's day and age, you can't, you know, you can't get every thing right. So even though I did so when I first met Tanya, it was winter and so you know, like you're wearing like long clothes and everything, and so you didn't It was January, so I didn't know if she had any tats anywhere. 01:15:15 Speaker 2: So this was back. This is what eleven years. 01:15:18 Speaker 4: Ago now, January of twenty fifteen. So I'm like digging through her Facebook looking for like, okay, like let's let's go on a tattoo hunt. 01:15:26 Speaker 2: Let's check it out. Let's see do we have any tats here over here, over here, over here, over here. 01:15:29 Speaker 4: And then there was this one picture that she had like on her leg and on her calf. She had one of those big like I think it was like a jaguar, like one of those jaguar things, and but I couldn't tell if it was one of the like a real tattoo or one of those. 01:15:42 Speaker 2: Like penna tattoos. 01:15:44 Speaker 3: What's it? 01:15:44 Speaker 4: So it's still winter, okay, you know, like like like a panther, you know what I mean. Like it's that very common symbol that you always see where it's like the heads at the bottom and the tail's going off. 01:15:54 Speaker 2: Oh like the full body, yeah, the full body, yeah exactly. Yeah. 01:15:59 Speaker 4: So I think like it's second or third date after I see this, I'm just sitting there. 01:16:03 Speaker 2: I'm like, so, uh, you know, I was thinking about getting a tattoo. 01:16:08 Speaker 3: What about you? 01:16:09 Speaker 2: Do you have any have any of those? 01:16:10 Speaker 4: You have any those any of those tattoos. Oh no, Jack, I know right and then and then she's like, oh no, I and I'll have thee I was like, really, you never gotten on your leg like maybe maybe like when you're at the beach or something, I don't know. And she goes, oh, yeah, well I know one time that I was down at the shore and she got that's what we say in pully And she said, I got one of those henna tattoos. Inside I'm like, yes, yes, yes, just Nna. 01:16:37 Speaker 5: Will you marry me? 01:16:38 Speaker 2: Yeah, she had had a tattoo, I would have stoped talking to her. 01:16:40 Speaker 3: Here's what I will say, just straight up. 01:16:43 Speaker 8: Yeah, here's what I will say about I respect having tattoos and about my kind of journey through getting tattoos. 01:16:52 Speaker 3: One, I think you need to have your brain needs. 01:16:55 Speaker 8: To be fully developed, like you were twenty one when you Yeah. True, but I had thought about tattoos a lot. So So here's the thing. 01:17:06 Speaker 3: Yeah, before your here's heroin. 01:17:09 Speaker 8: So I got a tatto. I got one tattoo. My parents were like. 01:17:14 Speaker 3: Hey, anymore and you're you're good. 01:17:19 Speaker 8: They were like, we're like, while you're in college, anything anything, you're cut off. I said, Okay, sounds good. I didn't get any tattoos through college. And then when I got out of college, because I was on my own, I was making my own money, I was doing my own stuff. I started getting That's when I started getting tattoos. So I had planned out, like I planned out all this this sleeve throughout all of college. And then also then systematically, as I started getting tattoos, I started to make sure that that was something I wanted to get and so that I can and then that's when I continue to do it. So I didn't get tattoos because I graduated in twenty uh twenty twenty, so I didn't get tattoos until twenty twenty twenty. 01:18:05 Speaker 5: I mean, this is all really well and good rest, but and I'm getting more sounds like a whole bunch of cope. 01:18:11 Speaker 3: I'm just kidding, And. 01:18:12 Speaker 2: That's what you just have. 01:18:13 Speaker 4: Wait, are your tattoos just arms or do you have like chess back ain't out? 01:18:17 Speaker 8: Well, I've got I've got two okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, this one on my neck, I got one behind my ear, I've got the arms. I have one on my chest, and then I have another full sleeve planned and a. 01:18:29 Speaker 5: Back piece you're gonna get the are you gonna get the full sleeve where it's it's it's one like like machine gun Kelly forty one. 01:18:37 Speaker 3: Oh gosh, Oh no, I'm not blacking out. I'm not. 01:18:41 Speaker 8: I'm not doing blackout work. That's for dang sure crazy. 01:18:45 Speaker 2: That's so my my brother. 01:18:47 Speaker 3: So he was covered in tattoos and then on top of it. 01:18:50 Speaker 5: Yeah, did the black ut Yeah. 01:18:52 Speaker 2: Yeah. 01:18:52 Speaker 4: So my brother's got two tattoos on his back, one that he got in Philly and then the other one kind of interesting, he got done in Jerusalem when we were there, and they have this place where you go and it's basically they say that they have all of these you know, uh, like tracings of tattoos that they claim are from like thousands. 01:19:15 Speaker 3: Oh yes, the Jerusalem place. I want to go there. 01:19:17 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, it's like a famous place. We're gonna it's top my head. 01:19:20 Speaker 4: And and he got basically a crusader tattoo on his back in Jerusalem in the same place that supposedly again like Cabat, caveat, et cetera. You know that a lot of the actual crusaders got Tattooszook tattoo. 01:19:36 Speaker 5: That's really cool and all, but it's not as cool as this back tattoo top forty. 01:19:44 Speaker 3: So good, it's so good. 01:19:47 Speaker 7: This just gets that. As admirable as that is, you're gonna go back to the grill. 01:19:51 Speaker 6: It's still age badly And I'm gonna end with a piece of honest advice. I would just know for any ladies out there who are listening, all five of you. In a survey I believe it was from Britain, I think thirty seven percent of men said their number one turnoff from women was tattoos, and I believe that. 01:20:08 Speaker 2: I think my. 01:20:09 Speaker 4: Two my turn offs yet again, tattoos, smoking and drinking just not into it. 01:20:14 Speaker 5: Yeah, me and my wife, we don't have any. So what can I say. I didn't do it out of like, I did not get a tattoo out of some sort of you know, value set. Really it was just sort of I think it was just an instinct. 01:20:28 Speaker 3: But I'm glad I have the Grier pledge now structure. 01:20:31 Speaker 8: And you know what, at the end of the day, one of my biggest supporters every time I get a tattoo is Erica. 01:20:36 Speaker 5: So I will say, what's that. 01:20:42 Speaker 6: I'm just saying that Charlie had no tattoos. He was a bit of a tattoo bh. 01:20:46 Speaker 8: I think there is she also understands who like how I how I ah. 01:20:50 Speaker 5: But there's also sort of like a there's kind of a thing where if you're going to be a person that has a tattoo and you're a good guy like you, I'm not gonna give you a hard time about it. But I think is that there's the micro in the macro, right, like the macro is no, we have we have preferences in the macro. 01:21:07 Speaker 3: I don't want to know. 01:21:07 Speaker 5: I also don't want to see the degradation of culture, and it is kind. 01:21:10 Speaker 7: Of I. 01:21:13 Speaker 5: Got to like the DMV go to Disneyland where everybody's wearing like shorts. You cant to see all those like parents that should know better with all their kids and they got tattoos all that. 01:21:21 Speaker 7: I think that's what's Yeah. 01:21:23 Speaker 6: I say this is when people say, like a certain tattoo is classic, they usually just mean it's less visible. And I think that's getting at the truth of it in most cases, which is they don't look great for. 01:21:35 Speaker 7: The most part. 01:21:36 Speaker 5: Well, these seems probably do go in trends though, right they. 01:21:39 Speaker 6: Do, which is also that's another. I mean, that's definitely especially A reason I'll be frank women should avoid them is they're more vulnerable to fads and trends, and it's a way of crystallizing and making largely indelible a trend you will you will probably think is lamental. We had one of our comments in the live chats, say, apparently in twenty sixteen, every other chick was getting an Ohana tattoo because Ohan, I mean his family and in what language Disney Hawaiian. 01:22:05 Speaker 7: I believe that it's stitch. I think it's stich. 01:22:09 Speaker 5: Was it was it like a was it like a yeah? Okay yea Maana the movie? 01:22:13 Speaker 6: Yeah, you get all these things that are just a very transient fad, except now they're emblazoned on your body for all time, and you'll be explaining them to people when you're seventy six years old and going into you know, a nursing home. 01:22:28 Speaker 8: To be fair, my, when I started looking at tattoos, I was looking at like like like bikers in the seventies. 01:22:35 Speaker 3: I was looking at you know, all of that kind of stuff. So that's where where the thought problems you pass. 01:22:41 Speaker 5: You're fine, we accept you for who you are. It's great. 01:22:45 Speaker 7: Uh yeah, we accept you more. 01:22:48 Speaker 5: We would we would just like you more if you wait. So wait, lads, I'm trying to think of any of these. I think, Tom Hardy, do I feel like he would? Have you been a guy that? I? 01:23:02 Speaker 2: Yes, Sir, I don't know.
