Episode 348: We Unpack Tuesday's Blue Wave and What Comes Next
We begin with the election results and the significant Democratic gains on Tuesday. I point out that the shift was larger than expected and that a Democratic Congress now faces a Republican president. We warn that Democrats must act decisively and deliver results or risk losing support in two years. I raise concerns about party leadership and name figures such as Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer in that context. We also discuss movies and culture, debating the Ocean’s and Fast and Furious franchises. I share personal notes about our new remix intro and my recovery from a long standing foot injury. We invite listeners to join us live Sundays at 9:00 pm Eastern and to follow us on Twitch, YouTube, and social media.

Speaker A:How you doing?
Speaker A:First of all, I have to sit here and I have to shout out my cousin AG for the new remix theme.
Speaker A:It's beautiful.
Speaker A:I love it.
Speaker A:What's going on, Moby?
Speaker A:What's.
Speaker C:Up?
Speaker D:Chilling, man.
Speaker A:Ah, man, that.
Speaker A:The remix intro is fire.
Speaker A:It's very much fire.
Speaker A:Appreciate you, A.G.
Speaker C:Yes, sir.
Speaker A:It was money.
Speaker A:It was money.
Speaker C:Let's shout out the bad part where it took me, like, six months to get this done when I already had it done, like, five months ago.
Speaker A:I mean, I really won't say nothing about that, but, I mean,.
Speaker C:I want to say it because it took me way too long to get that done,.
Speaker A:But it got done, and it's phenomenal.
Speaker A:Appreciate just.
Speaker A:Yes, sir.
Speaker A:New sound.
Speaker A:Let you know where we at.
Speaker A:At where we going and where we gonna be.
Speaker A:But before we get into all of this, I just have a question that literally just popped in my head.
Speaker A:All right, so which one is better, Ocean's 11, Ocean's 12 or Ocean's 13?
Speaker C:I don't know.
Speaker C:It's going.
Speaker C:It's gonna be a toss up between 11 and 12, but I'm gonna go with 11.
Speaker C:11 Is really good.
Speaker A:Moby.
Speaker D:Unpopular opinion.
Speaker D:They're all the same movie.
Speaker A:Yes, it is.
Speaker D:I mean, so, so like, you know, ask me which one is better.
Speaker D:They're all the same movie, man.
Speaker D:I mean there's not even a lot of nuance in the movie.
Speaker D:Like they try to do character development in it.
Speaker D:But like, let's just be honest, man.
Speaker D:It's just like cool actors playing like cool characters.
Speaker D:Like do we really care about the character development of that?
Speaker D:Like maybe, maybe you convince yourself that you do, but like, nah man, it's the same movie.
Speaker D:They just gift wrapped it like two other times.
Speaker D:Like.
Speaker A:So that means you like them equally.
Speaker D:I, I think they're all B movies.
Speaker A:It could be a D movie.
Speaker A:I was asking if you like them or not.
Speaker D:Once again, I think they're all Bs.
Speaker D:So therefore I'm saying they're the same grade, that they're not bad movies.
Speaker D:But like, if it's on, I'm not excited about watching it again.
Speaker A:Fair enough.
Speaker A:You know,.
Speaker C:I'm curious to understand the reaction you thought you were going to get from them.
Speaker A:I mean.
Speaker A:Nah, it's just, you know, I literally asked for a choice and we didn't get one.
Speaker D:Because it's the same movie.
Speaker D:Like so if you're going to say which one, I give me the first one.
Speaker D:You know what I'm saying?
Speaker D:Just because at least it hadn't been done yet.
Speaker A:Exactly.
Speaker A:See?
Speaker A:See?
Speaker A:And I'm, I'm fine with that.
Speaker A:I think each one is pretty good.
Speaker A:However, I do like the third one just because I felt like the third one really just like kind of stuck it to everybody because everybody got, got a little piece in that from the first two, you know, So I thought that was really good.
Speaker A:I mean, because.
Speaker D:They're not making any more, are they?
Speaker A:I don't know.
Speaker A:I mean they made the Ocean eight terrible one with all the women in it.
Speaker A:Not because it was all women.
Speaker A:It was just not a ridden movie.
Speaker A:I mean, and honestly, like, it was kind of, I thought that was kind of lame to a point because not that any of these would ever really happen, but to me stealing some multi million dollar necklace at the Met gala seems like of all three, the one that's never going to happen.
Speaker A:You know what I'm saying?
Speaker A:So I was kind of like ye, he kind of reached a little too far with that.
Speaker D:This coming from the guy that like loves all the Fast and Furious movies.
Speaker D:Like you're, I thought you were a fan of reaching like the more unrealistic the movie seemed.
Speaker D:It seems like you're usually all into.
Speaker A:It was, it was, it was too much for even Me and.
Speaker A:You're right.
Speaker A:And I'm a fast and furious guy.
Speaker D:Fast and furious.
Speaker D:The motherfuckers was in space in a car.
Speaker A:That was so awesome.
Speaker C:That kind of turned me off.
Speaker C:I didn't even watch it when y' all mentioned that.
Speaker C:I didn't even bother to watch watching after that.
Speaker A:Oh, it was funny.
Speaker A:You should watch it.
Speaker A:It was hilarious.
Speaker A:It was hilarious.
Speaker A:I mean, and that's the thing, right?
Speaker A:At least the Fast and the Furious movies got.
Speaker A:I mean, they got Tyrese and Ludicrous, man.
Speaker A:And those two are just good comedy, you know?
Speaker A:I.
Speaker C:Mean,.
Speaker A:Honestly,.
Speaker C:Man, the Fast and the Furious is never going to be better than the first in the film.
Speaker A:It depends.
Speaker A:I mean, you know.
Speaker C:Ok,.
Speaker A:It depends what you watch it for, right?
Speaker A:Because let's be real, it does.
Speaker A:Because in all reality, it wasn't supposed to go past three.
Speaker A:So Tokyo was.
Speaker C:On purpose.
Speaker A:Tokyo strips is on purpose.
Speaker A:Oh, man.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:And that was.
Speaker A:That's by far the worst one.
Speaker A:Without question.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:However, like, Vin Diesel was like, yo, man, I think we can do something with this.
Speaker A:And that's when they came out with the Fast and the Furious.
Speaker A:Or is that the first one?
Speaker A:That's the first one.
Speaker A:So it's Fast and Furious was the fourth one is like, what?
Speaker A:But I mean, no, it's.
Speaker A:There's some outlandish in that.
Speaker A:But at least this.
Speaker A:At least we know that ain't it real.
Speaker A:That ain't happening.
Speaker A:Close.
Speaker A:Like, but can a.
Speaker A:Can.
Speaker A:Can.
Speaker A:Can a casino be ro.
Speaker A:Robbed?
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker A:Three times, surprisingly.
Speaker A:You know, the Met Gala, definitely not.
Speaker A:Like, I just can't see it.
Speaker A:But hey, hey, man.
Speaker A:I also don't think that didn't make that much money either.
Speaker A:So there's a whole bunch of stuff with that.
Speaker A:Ah.
Speaker A:Which is better?
Speaker D:After the first two, people were like, yeah, do I want to see this movie again?
Speaker A:No, no, I'm talking about the Ocean's 8 1.
Speaker A:That movie.
Speaker D:Once again, after the first three.
Speaker D:Like, do I want to see this recast with women?
Speaker A:Hey, man, I'm a fan of Stop.
Speaker A:Sometimes you got to stop stuff where it is.
Speaker A:But.
Speaker D:But yet you want Mission Impossible to go on forever.
Speaker D:You love every Fast and Furious move.
Speaker D:Like, everything you're saying has been contradictory today, man.
Speaker A:Look, man, I like that.
Speaker A:I like that stuff because at least I know that it's fiction.
Speaker A:And plus, once again, hey, man, if you got some good comic relief in it, I can hang on with some good comic relief.
Speaker D:Once again.
Speaker A:And I would say.
Speaker D:The.
Speaker A:Ocean series, the OSHA series has some good comic relief.
Speaker A:Ocean's 8 did not.
Speaker A:It was just not a good movie all around.
Speaker A:There's no.
Speaker A:There's.
Speaker A:There was no redeeming qualities.
Speaker A:That movie.
Speaker D:Ag.
Speaker D:He hates women, man.
Speaker A:Nah, man.
Speaker A:I.
Speaker C:Was thinking that it's like the most dangerous thing you can say is to critique.
Speaker C:Critique a movie that's got all women in it.
Speaker D:Just like the Ghostbusters.
Speaker D:He hates it.
Speaker D:He hates it.
Speaker D:He's like.
Speaker A:Well, actually, I never said that.
Speaker A:I never said that.
Speaker A:It.
Speaker C:Was.
Speaker A:Actually like,.
Speaker C:It.
Speaker C:It wasn't that good.
Speaker A:It wasn't that great, but it was entertaining.
Speaker C:I don't even know if it was that.
Speaker A:No, I thought it was.
Speaker D:Yeah, he's trying to back off of it now.
Speaker A:No, no, I never said that.
Speaker A:The Ghostbusters.
Speaker A:Women's Ghostbusters was bad.
Speaker A:That's not me.
Speaker A:Because I think all the Ghostbusters are pretty decent.
Speaker A:I mean, but if you're gonna make me rank them, that's gonna be last.
Speaker A:Because they completely went outside the storyline and stuff like that, and they tried to remake.
Speaker A:And it's like.
Speaker A:That's why I like the fact that Dan Ackroyd was like, man, we gotta.
Speaker A:We gotta do this right.
Speaker D:Once again.
Speaker D:You didn't even know Ruben was the first team.
Speaker D:Oh, he's an all NCAA defensive back.
Speaker D:See how he's running backwards?
Speaker A:He's a sack.
Speaker D:Backpack with the best of him, baby.
Speaker A:So Cowboy asked, what's better, the OG Fast interference or the OG Point Break?
Speaker A:First of all, I will make this statement.
Speaker A:That new Point Break is trash.
Speaker A:So, like, OG Point Break automatically win because I. I think it was better than Fast and Furious.
Speaker D:You think the OG Point Break is better than Fast and Furious?
Speaker A:The first one?
Speaker A:Yeah, I think so.
Speaker A:Just because.
Speaker A:Just because, honestly.
Speaker A:Hey, man, jump.
Speaker A:Jumping out of planes and fighting in the middle of the air.
Speaker A:You know, I can't be mad at that.
Speaker A:Keanu Reeves wasn't really that bad in that movie.
Speaker A:The worst thing they did was it was remake that movie.
Speaker A:That is horrible.
Speaker C:Yeah, I didn't bother watching it.
Speaker C:The first one is the.
Speaker C:And that's it.
Speaker A:Yeah,.
Speaker C:I didn't.
Speaker A:Try.
Speaker C:To.
Speaker C:I didn't even try to watch it.
Speaker A:Don't do it to yourself.
Speaker C:I'm not.
Speaker C:If I want to see the Point Break, I'm going to see Sway and Reeves go at it.
Speaker C:That's what I'm going to do.
Speaker C:So,.
Speaker D:I mean, this probably isn't a popular opinion, but, like, the first Fast and the Furious actually is one of my least favorite of the series.
Speaker C:Okay, what's your favorite.
Speaker D:No.
Speaker D:No, it's not.
Speaker D:I don't like him.
Speaker D:But the one that entertains me the most is probably Too Fast, Too Furious.
Speaker D:I don't know why that entertains me.
Speaker A:Oh, because this number was crazy.
Speaker C:Was that after.
Speaker A:That was the second one.
Speaker A:That was the second one.
Speaker A:That's.
Speaker D:Technically.
Speaker A:It's the second one.
Speaker D:Yeah, it's.
Speaker A:The second one.
Speaker C:That's the one where Vin Diesel wasn't in it at all.
Speaker C:It was just.
Speaker D:That's the one that introduced Tyrese.
Speaker A:Tyrese.
Speaker C:Okay.
Speaker C:Okay.
Speaker C:That wasn't bad.
Speaker A:It was funny.
Speaker D:And.
Speaker D:And once again, that's actually the reason I enjoyed the most.
Speaker D:To me, that was the most comic relief.
Speaker A:Yeah,.
Speaker D:Tyrese's character was probably the best in that one.
Speaker C:Okay, understood.
Speaker C:Honestly.
Speaker C:Honestly, if you.
Speaker C:From an entertainment standpoint, out of all the movies that you've named Ruben, all.
Speaker C:None of them are bad.
Speaker D:Yeah.
Speaker C:I think you kind of split hairs when you start talking about, you know, what the.
Speaker C:Because, like most said, there's no nuance between them.
Speaker C:They're all the same.
Speaker C:But it's just like, from an entertainment standpoint, will I waste eight hours watching this?
Speaker C:Maybe.
Speaker C:So it's like, dang, none of them that are bad now.
Speaker C:Tokyo Drift, in and of itself in a vacuum, is not a bad movie.
Speaker C:I think coming off of the first two was like.
Speaker C:It was.
Speaker C:It's kind of like dropped off a cliff, but not too far off the cliff, but it's kind of like, what?
Speaker C:And I don't even know if it was the writing or the idea of it all.
Speaker C:I mean, we got Han out of it, but it's like, what are we doing?
Speaker C:But was it a bad movie?
Speaker C:Nah, probably not.
Speaker A:I would say Tokyo Drift just brought in a different type of driving, and it was more.
Speaker A:I don't want to say experimental movie, but if it's gonna be something, I would call it that.
Speaker A:Then I was like, fuck it.
Speaker A:Let's do a third one.
Speaker A:Let's do some shit that nobody really knows about in America.
Speaker A:Unless you're.
Speaker A:Unless you're a driving person.
Speaker A:And that's drifting.
Speaker A:I didn't know what the drifting was.
Speaker C:No, you're not wrong about that.
Speaker C:I never even thought about it from that angle.
Speaker C:Sure.
Speaker A:So, I mean,.
Speaker D:I think they were just trying to see if they could introduce a new element to the movie.
Speaker D:Because, honestly, I don't think they're unintelligent people.
Speaker D:I think they know people like me exist where I'm just like, all right, you made a first movie, and then you made the second movie, which is pretty much the same as the first movie.
Speaker D:So they were like, hey, we got to do something a little different.
Speaker D:So, hey, we're going to introduce all new characters.
Speaker D:A whole new location.
Speaker D:Yeah.
Speaker D:A whole new background location and a whole new element of driving.
Speaker D:And let's see what happens.
Speaker D:And, you know, it didn't do as great over here, but I mean, it wasn't so terrible that they were like, we got to end the series.
Speaker D:It was just like, ah, people might not want to see a lot of this.
Speaker A:Well, it was entertaining.
Speaker A:I mean, to a point, I would say, you know, that's when Vin Diesel, pretty much at the end, I was like, you know what?
Speaker A:Let's try this.
Speaker A:Let's try to reboot this.
Speaker A:Because he was at the end of Tokyo Drift, you know, with his car going up against the American guy.
Speaker A:I can't remember his name, his character's name.
Speaker A:But like, yeah.
Speaker A:Then they came out with Fast and the Furious and kind of restarted that whole thing again.
Speaker A:Which,.
Speaker D:If we just talk about the first Fast and Furious movies, I feel like they have.
Speaker D:If just the first three.
Speaker D:So with the first two, Fast and Furious and Gild Drift, I feel like they have the Karate Kid problem.
Speaker D:And what I mean by that is I feel like I've always felt like Karate Kid was out of order.
Speaker D:The first movie, fine.
Speaker D:And I always felt like the third movie should have actually been the second movie and it would have made.
Speaker D:It would have been.
Speaker D:It have been a much better flow.
Speaker D:I almost feel like the fast fur.
Speaker D:If they did Fast and Furious, the first one, and then they would have did Tokyo Drift and then somehow they would have made it just connect a little bit to two Fast Too Furious.
Speaker D:I think it would have been more cohesive because after seeing the characters that everybody had kind of fallen in love with in the first two Fast and Furious movies, then you drop Tokyo Drift and you don't have any of them characters in it now.
Speaker D:Your audience was like, I was looking for the characters.
Speaker D:I'd know, however, if Tokyo Drift would have just came out after the first one, you wouldn't have had as much allegiance to the characters in the first one.
Speaker D:And you would have been more accept.
Speaker D:They'd have been more accepting of, like, hey, we're introducing new characters.
Speaker A:Maybe.
Speaker A:But I will give them some credit that at least they tried to retcon themselves.
Speaker A:Because with the fourth one, technically, that was.
Speaker A:They had the reverse time, as it were, because technically that's the second one now.
Speaker A:No, that's the third one.
Speaker A:That's the third one.
Speaker A:Because Tokyo Drift almost didn't exist in this.
Speaker A:And then they didn't bring Tokyo Drift back until they.
Speaker A:Until because remember Han died in like the sixth one.
Speaker A:And then that's when they.
Speaker A:Because Han ended up dying.
Speaker A:So then when he was talking to the other girl was like, I think I want to go to Tokyo.
Speaker A:Then they put in Tokyo Drift right there.
Speaker A:And because Han died in Tokyo Drift, which was.
Speaker A:I.
Speaker C:Didn't think, I thought he didn't like die for real though.
Speaker A:No, he didn't.
Speaker A:He.
Speaker D:Did.
Speaker D:But.
Speaker A:They killed.
Speaker A:But killed the character off and then he's.
Speaker A:But then he's in like number five and it's like, what the.
Speaker A:Han's dead.
Speaker A:So they kind of almost had to go back in history.
Speaker A:It.
Speaker A:It was weird.
Speaker A:But they fixed themselves, I guess.
Speaker A:You.
Speaker D:Know, if you keep a franchise going long enough, writers are just going to find a way to move forward, man.
Speaker D:Like,.
Speaker C:So they going to bring back Gagadot's character.
Speaker C:They gonna do.
Speaker C:Try to do that.
Speaker A:Yes, they did bring her back.
Speaker A:They did.
Speaker A:They sure did.
Speaker A:Fast X.
Speaker D:After.
Speaker C:She died on the Runway.
Speaker C:What?
Speaker A:Bro, but you never saw her body.
Speaker C:Oh, that's what we're doing now.
Speaker A:That's what we're doing.
Speaker C:Oh my goodness.
Speaker C:Okay.
Speaker D:Ag.
Speaker D:It's.
Speaker D:It's why.
Speaker D:I don't get.
Speaker D:It's why I. I just find it odd that Ruben's like, some of this is just too unbelievable for another movie.
Speaker D:And then we just explained Fast and Furious to.
Speaker D:In a vacuum.
Speaker D:And you're, you're shaking your head like, how the possible.
Speaker D:Exactly.
Speaker D:I.
Speaker C:Saw her get swept away going 120 and it's like she's alive.
Speaker A:I can't wait to see how they explain that.
Speaker A:Like, I'm excited,.
Speaker C:Actually.
Speaker C:I'm still trying to wait for them to explain how Han is alive after he burned up in a fiery ball.
Speaker C:Explain that.
Speaker C:They explain that.
Speaker A:In fast.
Speaker A:X.
Speaker A:They explain that in fast.
Speaker C:Oh, I never saw that one.
Speaker C:Okay.
Speaker A:Yeah, it's a good.
Speaker A:It's a good one.
Speaker C:Yeah,.
Speaker A:But.
Speaker A:Cuz he came back because everybody.
Speaker A:Once again, Tokyo.
Speaker A:You know, they flipped the timeline.
Speaker A:Shit.
Speaker A:And he's dead.
Speaker A:And then he appears in fast text.
Speaker A:Everyone's like, what the.
Speaker C:I gotta ask you a question, man.
Speaker C:How can you hate so hard on one thing and then like do gymnastics for another?
Speaker D:That's exactly what the point I was making at the beginning of this.
Speaker D:Like, I just don't get it.
Speaker C:How do you do that, man?
Speaker D:I wish you would just be like, I like it and end the store.
Speaker D:Instead of.
Speaker D:He, He.
Speaker D:He.
Speaker D:Instead of just wanting to own that he likes something that might be an unpopular opinion, he tries to justify it with logic and reason, even though his own logic and reason cuts that off at the knees.
Speaker C:But what I'm saying is, there's.
Speaker A:A shit I like, and they said I don't.
Speaker A:It's just what it is.
Speaker C:But see, what I'm saying is.
Speaker C:But he likes.
Speaker C:He'll hate on somebody else's likes, no matter how preposterous they may be.
Speaker C:But then he comes out with something as unreasonable, and it's like, he can't explain to you how you should like it.
Speaker C:What?
Speaker A:I'll be here all week, actually.
Speaker A:I'm just here on Sundays.
Speaker C:Oh, my goodness.
Speaker C:I was listening to you.
Speaker C:Like, are you like two different people, man,.
Speaker A:All wrapped in one helix, baby.
Speaker C:Oh, my goodness.
Speaker C:Okay,.
Speaker D:Ag.
Speaker D:Reuben is the definition of some Tommy.
Speaker D:Definition.
Speaker C:I haven't heard sometime in, like, 30 years.
Speaker A:I mean, at least I'm not a heer.
Speaker A:So I'm good there.
Speaker C:Oh, man.
Speaker C:Like I said, man, those movies are super entertaining.
Speaker C:I don't care who you are.
Speaker C:But there are times where I'm like, really?
Speaker C:Y' all really?
Speaker C:Come on.
Speaker C:Hot as dead.
Speaker C:Hot as dead.
Speaker A:I go for it, though.
Speaker A:At the beginning of the space, I was like, come on, man.
Speaker A:Well,.
Speaker C:Man.
Speaker C:And somebody had to sign a big check to sign off on the production.
Speaker C:I'm like, really?
Speaker C:Come on.
Speaker A:But once again, I mean, of all the people in the.
Speaker A:In this.
Speaker A:In the series, you put the right two people in space, and this was hilarious.
Speaker A:It didn't.
Speaker A:It made no sense, but it was hilarious.
Speaker A:So, like, yeah, man.
Speaker A:Especially when they're in the car in space and you see the tootsie Roll rappers floating, and then Tyrese is like, yeah, I stress eat when I'm nervous.
Speaker A:I was like, what?
Speaker A:This dude's littering space.
Speaker A:So, I mean, look, man, there's some fun.
Speaker A:There's unfortunately some funny shit.
Speaker A:Of all the preposterousness that happens.
Speaker D:Ag.
Speaker D:Here's my problem,.
Speaker C:Okay?
Speaker D:Just like I said a couple minutes ago, all he had to do is just say, I like it.
Speaker D:But he spends all this time trying to justify it with, like, excuses and, like, reasoning.
Speaker D:And it's like, bro, it's okay to just say you like it.
Speaker A:It's not.
Speaker A:It's not entertaining, though.
Speaker C:Maybe there's a part of Reuben that actually hates on his hate, so he has to explain it, but it just comes out loud.
Speaker D:It's.
Speaker D:It's.
Speaker D:It's a self conscious that he feels like we're judging him.
Speaker D:Because if.
Speaker D:If you don't feel the same passion alike for it's like he feels like we're attacking him.
Speaker D:Like, like when I made the statement about like, you know, Fast and furious movie kind of being a scene saying he says, well, I know you.
Speaker D:Tigo hates fast.
Speaker D:And I never said I hated the Fast and furious movie.
Speaker D:I never said that.
Speaker D:I simply said I don't like him as much as you for the very reason that you're trying to explain to me why you like them.
Speaker C:Oh, my goodness, man.
Speaker C:Look, I just love you, Reuben.
Speaker C:You my dog, man.
Speaker C:For real,.
Speaker D:Ag, I feel the same way.
Speaker D:You just made that statement.
Speaker D:That's why I'm always just like, bro, it's okay to just say you like it.
Speaker D:Exactly.
Speaker D:There's no judgment here.
Speaker D:It's like, yo, you like.
Speaker C:It.
Speaker A:There's always judgment.
Speaker C:From who?
Speaker C:Exactly.
Speaker C:From who?
Speaker C:From you.
Speaker C:I told you.
Speaker C:There's another part of you that hates on your hate.
Speaker C:You might be talking to that guy.
Speaker A:I mean, I don't think I have a Jimney cricket anywhere,.
Speaker C:Man.
Speaker C:Because we all.
Speaker D:Do,.
Speaker C:Sir.
Speaker C:We all.
Speaker D:Do.
Speaker D:Every.
Speaker D:Everybody on this show has expressed something that they like or hate, and they're kind of on an island about it.
Speaker D:And me and ag, we'll say it and we kind of just sit on that island.
Speaker D:Cool.
Speaker D:You try to adopt everybody to come on the island with you.
Speaker D:Like, please, please join me on this island.
Speaker D:I don't want to be alone.
Speaker D:I don't want to be alone.
Speaker C:And now for a commercial break.
Speaker A:How you doing?
Speaker A:This is Reuben from five minute Warning.
Speaker A:And I just wanted to sit here and tell you about JTD creat.
Speaker A:They're the ones that made our shirts and even sweatshirts.
Speaker A:They're pretty dope.
Speaker A:They can put your logo on anything.
Speaker A:Shirts, jackets, hoodies, even hats.
Speaker A:They also do Stanley's and all this other stuff.
Speaker A:Anything you need a logo on, they can put it on.
Speaker A:They can do it for one or two people or they could do it for a group.
Speaker A:It's really up to you.
Speaker A:Hit them up on JTD Creations on Facebook.
Speaker A:Once again, that's who 5minute want to uses for all of our parents.
Speaker A:And trust me, you will not be disappointed.
Speaker A:Once again, hit up JTD Creations if you need a shirt or you need anything for yourself, a family member or your crew, and let them know that five minute one is sent.
Speaker A:You have a great one,.
Speaker C:And back to the show.
Speaker A:What's going on, Nick?
Speaker A:How you living, brother.
Speaker A:Appreciate you watching.
Speaker A:Oh, man.
Speaker A:So, all right, so we had our fun with that.
Speaker A:Let's get into the real meat and potatoes because we do talk about a lot of things, but we will be remiss if we don't speak on what happened on Tuesday.
Speaker A:That's still kind of continuing.
Speaker A:I mean, call it what you want.
Speaker A:Blue Wave, a blue tsunami, Blue Meteor, whatever you want to call it.
Speaker A:However, I think the funniest thing that I saw was watching Mo B's boy talk about it, man.
Speaker A:Watching Cruz talk about it, man, it was awesome.
Speaker A:That might have been the funniest.
Speaker A:The funniest clip I've seen in a while from that guy.
Speaker A:What he.
Speaker C:Said?
Speaker C:What did he say?
Speaker A:Oh, my God.
Speaker D:He said they got their ass kicked.
Speaker D:That's.
Speaker C:What he said?
Speaker A:Pretty much.
Speaker C:Wow.
Speaker A:He was like,.
Speaker D:I'm the only Republican elected official left in Texas.
Speaker A:Yeah,.
Speaker D:He got good old fashioned ass kicking.
Speaker C:Is that because he won his election?
Speaker C:Is that because his cycle's not here yet?
Speaker A:His cycle's not here.
Speaker C:Okay.
Speaker C:Because he.
Speaker C:So he's got like two more years though, right?
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker C:Okay.
Speaker A:Because trust me, I think if.
Speaker A:I think if he was up too, his ass might have been gone, too.
Speaker C:Okay.
Speaker C:I was wondering why I didn't hear about it, but now it makes sense because my wife had to explain to me because I forgot all about this.
Speaker C:Everybody's cycle's not the same.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker C:So, yeah, like in the presidential election, he gonna be gone.
Speaker C:If.
Speaker C:There's a lot of ifs.
Speaker C:And I don't really believe that Democrats are really gonna do as well going forward because they can't even get the Schumer, Jeffries thing right.
Speaker C:And they just don't have a track record of going for the jugular.
Speaker C:So we're gonna see.
Speaker D:Speaking of the names you said, Jeffries and Ruben.
Speaker D:I'm not trying to.
Speaker D:I know you want to get into it, so the Jeffries thing bothers me.
Speaker D:Why do I hate hearing him talk so much?
Speaker C:Cause you.
Speaker C:You smell.
Speaker C:You.
Speaker C:I. I don't know how to say this, but.
Speaker C:You smell.
Speaker C:Wait, I know how to say it.
Speaker C:You smell the Steven in him.
Speaker C:That's what it is to me.
Speaker C:If you're asking me what I think about what you said, I believe you smell the house Negro in him.
Speaker C:He doesn't really come out and say it, but if you really are paying attention to what he says, who he meets with, how he votes things he supports, all the things that aren't really public knowledge, because he kind of got to be paying attention to really notice.
Speaker C:But I'm telling you, you smell the house Negro in him.
Speaker D:You know, there's a large portion of that, but I think bigger than that.
Speaker D:He's just not charismatic.
Speaker D:And I know.
Speaker C:He's a low rent Obama for sure.
Speaker D:I know your policies and how you vote and all that shit should be hiring.
Speaker D:And honestly, for most of the politicians, that's actually all I care about.
Speaker D:But if you're gonna put somebody as a speaker, I want to feel something when he speaks.
Speaker C:Well, that's not the case.
Speaker C:Really?
Speaker C:Because if you were right leaning, do you really think Mike Johnson's that guy?
Speaker D:No, no, I feel that.
Speaker D:That's the thing.
Speaker D:I feel like they're the same person, just maybe vote a little differently.
Speaker D:But like, like, I don't really feel like they don't inspire anything from me when they speak, but I just.
Speaker D:It's like listening to a Kanye west gospel album.
Speaker C:I feel nothing.
Speaker C:You need to get.
Speaker C:We need to get JTD to get T shirts done.
Speaker C:Like, I feel nothing.
Speaker C:I know what he's going to say before he said it.
Speaker C:That is hilarious.
Speaker C:I need.
Speaker C:I. I feel.
Speaker C:I felt nothing.
Speaker A:I don't dislike Hakeem Jeffries.
Speaker A:I just think that I agree with the statement earlier.
Speaker A:As you said, Ag, I feel like he tries to copy Obama's mannerisms and I just wish that he was just himself.
Speaker C:But that might be him.
Speaker C:Because there are some people that are shape shifters.
Speaker C:There are some people that pretend to be whoever they think they need to be to be popular.
Speaker C:It might be him.
Speaker C:I don't think.
Speaker C:Maybe no one knows who Akeem Jeffries is.
Speaker C:All I know is he every time I look at him, the first thing that comes to mind is sometimes it being your own people.
Speaker C:The first time I saw him speak was like two or three years ago.
Speaker C:And I was like, that's the guy.
Speaker C:But then he would say things and he would vote for things.
Speaker C:And then I'm like, and then here lately, since Trump's been back in office, no, he's not the guy.
Speaker C:In fact, he's the enemy.
Speaker C:He's always been the enemy.
Speaker C:And he is a Obama wannabe that will never be number one.
Speaker C:He ain't that cool.
Speaker C:Cause Obama is just cool.
Speaker D:He's a Timo Obama.
Speaker C:Say what?
Speaker D:He's a Teemu Obama.
Speaker C:Not even.
Speaker C:Not even.
Speaker C:Because he's just not that he does and.
Speaker C:And now.
Speaker C:But going back to Timu, he doesn't have the quality either.
Speaker C:Number one, when you order from Timo, at least they send you what you Think you're buying it might not work very well, but at least they send you what you think you're buying with him.
Speaker C:They send you something else.
Speaker C:He's not that dude, man.
Speaker C:He's just not.
Speaker C:And he going behind your back.
Speaker C:As far as I'm concerned, he is a right leaning person pretending so he can have that juice.
Speaker C:And he's about to get it.
Speaker C:Because unless some, unless most of the incoming Congress, no, I mean senators or no congress people come in and help vote them both, him, he and Schumer out.
Speaker C:It's going to be so bad.
Speaker C:It's going to be worse than it is now because now we have our own people handing us our lunch, pissing on our heads, telling us it's raining.
Speaker C:I'm telling you, man, it's gonna be bad.
Speaker C:He's not the one, man.
Speaker C:The guy's dangerous.
Speaker C:He is dangerous.
Speaker C:If you look at what he's done.
Speaker C:Forget, forget who he is.
Speaker C:If you look at what he's done and then you add on the Democratic label, we sleeping with the enemy, man.
Speaker C:He's not.
Speaker C:No, he's not Good.
Speaker C:And I get Chuck Schumer.
Speaker C:He's a Jewish person.
Speaker C:So you already know what's gonna happen.
Speaker C:There's no altruism with these people.
Speaker C:So I'm like, no, no, no.
Speaker C:Both of them gotta go for Democrats to have a chance to keep this position for any amount of time.
Speaker C:Because I promise you, so much can happen in two years.
Speaker C:Ask the Republicans.
Speaker C:So much can happen in two years for you to mess up what happened on Tuesday and those two guys will lead you down the path to slaughter.
Speaker C:Because they're right leaning and they have this facade of Democrat and they're not.
Speaker C:They're not.
Speaker C:If you listen to Chuck Schumer.
Speaker C:For real, bruh.
Speaker C:I agree.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Nick's saying Jeffries is looking out for Jeffries.
Speaker A:President Obama was a generational politician with his presence and charisma.
Speaker A:Where we aren't going to see another like that.
Speaker D:Nope.
Speaker A:Oh, very true.
Speaker A:We're not.
Speaker A:And.
Speaker C:That goes for presidents at all.
Speaker C:That's not just black.
Speaker C:Yeah.
Speaker C:That's just presidents at all.
Speaker C:Now don't get me wrong.
Speaker C:Obama's record, you know, he did some things people didn't like.
Speaker C:He did some things that you could go either side with and then he did a lot of great things.
Speaker C:But what I'm saying is Jeffries is not that he ain't that.
Speaker C:That he ain't never going to be that he's not here to protect you.
Speaker C:At least with Obama, his intent was good, 100%.
Speaker C:This dude is letting you know I am out for me.
Speaker C:Just like Nick said.
Speaker C:Jeffries is looking out for Jeffries.
Speaker C:He love him some him.
Speaker C:You really think the people in the Bronx get down with this dude?
Speaker C:For real, bruh.
Speaker C:No, no, no.
Speaker C:And I'm going on what he said and what he supports and how he votes, because Mo said it on the show, too.
Speaker C:What, What.
Speaker C:What came up that was holding up the government from opening up again.
Speaker C:And he was one of the first ones.
Speaker D:Schumer and Jeffries of one of the first ones jumped online.
Speaker C:Yeah,.
Speaker D:The government.
Speaker D:Because the government people weren't getting paid.
Speaker D:And.
Speaker D:And they were just.
Speaker D:And they were trying to hold out.
Speaker D:And Jeffrey first.
Speaker D:First people to come to the table.
Speaker D:You know, people want to get paid.
Speaker C:And that's my point, because I was.
Speaker C:Well, not me, because I wasn't in that.
Speaker C:I'm not a government employee.
Speaker C:But in my mind, I'm like, I don't need to get paid that bad to let this evil go through.
Speaker C:Because they're strong.
Speaker D:They'd already not been getting paid.
Speaker D:They've already made the decision we're not getting paid.
Speaker D:Even if they really make.
Speaker D:You've already got people not getting paid, so you basically think they're hold out and struggle for nothing.
Speaker C:See, so like I said, man, I don't.
Speaker C:I'm looking for people, how they speak to me, what they believe in, the laws in which that they support, and how they vote.
Speaker C:If you check all the boxes, then I'm gonna vote for you.
Speaker C:If you don't check any of those boxes, you gotta go.
Speaker C:And like I said before, there's nothing worse than having somebody in your own house shoot you in the face.
Speaker A:So this is what I will say to that, to all that.
Speaker A:Like, I'll be honest.
Speaker A:Y' all know more about.
Speaker A:About Jeffries than I do.
Speaker A:And that's why I think there's a problem.
Speaker A:Because, look, you know, Nancy wasn't from California, but when she was running, I knew enough about Nancy Pelosi to know that, A, she a little crazy, but B, she'd be trying to get done.
Speaker A:Like, I don't know enough about Hakeem Jeffries to even speak on it like that.
Speaker A:You know, as far as Schumer, I think he's got two years, and I think he's done.
Speaker C:But why this is, somebody's got to make that happen unless he chooses to retire.
Speaker C:And I don't see that happening.
Speaker A:Well, I think what's going to happen is they're going to try to get him out, out.
Speaker A:And it's gonna fail.
Speaker A:But, you know, no, Nancy.
Speaker A:Nancy was House.
Speaker A:Nancy's House of Representatives.
Speaker A:But nah, man, they're not.
Speaker A:I think Jeffries, not Jeffries.
Speaker A:Schumer will win.
Speaker A:But then I think in two years he gonna go up again.
Speaker A:And they might.
Speaker A:They gotta find somebody, because I don't think they have anybody that they can replace them with right now, but I think in two years they may.
Speaker A:And I would think the same with Jeffries as well right now.
Speaker A:I just think that through the whole thing, my.
Speaker A:My thoughts are that I expected the House to go blue.
Speaker A:I was iffy on the Senate, but what I didn't expect was this landslide of shit.
Speaker A:This.
Speaker A:The numbers is just.
Speaker A:It's just crazy.
Speaker A:So, I mean, we'll see.
Speaker A:You know, we have a Democratic Congress and we have a Republican president, which means usually that ain't getting done.
Speaker A:That's usually what happens.
Speaker A:Unless we go through the whole process of sending something up.
Speaker A:Trump's gonna veto it, then it's gonna go back to the House, and then the House is going to approve it and it's gonna be law.
Speaker A:So it really just kind of depends because he is.
Speaker A:He is probably as lame duck as a president that we have ever had.
Speaker A:I don't think of anybody who was more of a lame duck president.
Speaker A:Maybe Carter, but, like, yeah, he's super lame duck.
Speaker A:So, you know.
Speaker C:Well, all I know is within reason, because there are certain things that can't get undone in two years or certain things that are just in a.
Speaker C:Just in a.
Speaker C:You know, in disarray.
Speaker C: emocrats show any weakness in: Speaker A:Oh, it's going to go the other way, easy,.
Speaker C:100%.
Speaker C:And they.
Speaker C:And I think they understand that.
Speaker C:But then I hear Congress people and senators say stuff that.
Speaker C:It's like, we won.
Speaker C:Yay.
Speaker C:No, that's not the goal.
Speaker C:This is a step, not the goal.
Speaker C:The goal is to get that cowardly stench off of you.
Speaker C:That's the first thing you need to do.
Speaker C:Because you.
Speaker C:You have allowed people to believe that the President can run roughshod over you.
Speaker C:Things are happening that are out of.
Speaker C:That are blowing my mind.
Speaker C:And I'm like, y' all ain't saying nothing.
Speaker C:Not even saying nothing.
Speaker C:Nothing.
Speaker C:Like, for.
Speaker C:You know what?
Speaker A:Well,.
Speaker C:They got a lot of work to do.
Speaker A:What I will say is, with the Democrats, though, because they did not have majority at the beginning, they said a lot of.
Speaker A:But they Couldn't get nothing done because the Republicans weren't doing anything.
Speaker A:So, like.
Speaker A:And I get that because that's the way works.
Speaker A:Like, all these executive orders that he.
Speaker A:That he created, none of those are in line.
Speaker A:All.
Speaker A:So technically, what could happen is they can reverse all that.
Speaker A:The question is, will they do that?
Speaker A:Because they have the overwhelming majority to get that done.
Speaker A:So, like, I know they're trying to go after, like, the family and all that stuff.
Speaker A:I think you need to.
Speaker A:You need to have a goal, and you need to start with certain things, like, snap.
Speaker A:How about you get that restarted for people who need it?
Speaker A:You know what I'm saying?
Speaker A:Fair enough.
Speaker A:A lot of executive orders that hurt people, random shit's out.
Speaker A:That's.
Speaker A:That should be their first step in all reality.
Speaker A:But, you know, they want to have a whole bunch of hearings and.
Speaker A:And do basically a whole bunch of nothing but waste taxpayer.
Speaker A:Taxpayer money.
Speaker A:So I would like to see some actually governing happen out there.
Speaker A:But, you know, it just depends.
Speaker C:Okay, well, like I said, we can say all we want to.
Speaker C:The bottom line is they got to perform.
Speaker C:If they don't, it's gonna be a message to you.
Speaker D:Yeah, I mean, I was talking to my daughter Kara, who has been, like, amazingly passionate about politics, which is.
Speaker D:It was new to me.
Speaker D:I didn't realize she was that into it.
Speaker D:But, yeah, I was explaining to her that just because the country voted this way, does it mean that people all of a sudden care about the issues?
Speaker D:And I was like, the bottom line is, and maybe somebody will disagree with me, and that's okay.
Speaker D:The only reason the white people voted the way they did is because they broke.
Speaker D:They feel in the money situation.
Speaker D:They feel in the gas prices and all the other stuff, this is nothing to do about.
Speaker D:About.
Speaker D:You know, people are like, oh, well, some people just don't like all of the.
Speaker D:The bad world stuff that's going on and the corruption.
Speaker D:I don't believe in white people that much.
Speaker D:This is about, yo, they can't afford them diesel prices.
Speaker D:They can't.
Speaker D:The farmers can't afford the diesel fuel for their tractors.
Speaker D:And white people are like, yo, man, this money thing is affecting us way more than we thought.
Speaker D:You said that gas price and stuff are coming down.
Speaker D:They ain't never been this high before.
Speaker D:Like, I don't think all of a sudden the country showed me that they're more moral than they were two years ago.
Speaker D:I don't believe that.
Speaker D:So because of that, if Democrats waste time on trying to impeach Trump and do all this other stuff, Republicans will be back in power because then they'll be able to say, hey, look, see, Democrats didn't do nothing.
Speaker D:And in fact, I think now we're like, hey, we're going to get out of this war now.
Speaker D:Maybe, maybe.
Speaker D:Because now, yes, Trump is a lame duck president, but he's also a spiteful human being.
Speaker D:So like, I feel like now every, like, oh, next two years are going to be hard for him.
Speaker D:No, he's going to make the next two years hard for everybody else.
Speaker D:And like, you know, and I was telling Karen, like, yeah, like, how many people do you think actually know that the Democrats are in power right now?
Speaker D:And she was like, what do you mean?
Speaker D:I'm like, yo, they're people right now.
Speaker D:Because people don't really pay attention to how government works.
Speaker D:There are people right now that are going to go to the gas pump in a week or two, be like, Democrats are in charge.
Speaker D:And stuff is still the same.
Speaker D:Not realizing that they're really not in charge until January.
Speaker D:But people don't pay attention to that.
Speaker D:So.
Speaker A:Grade civics.
Speaker D:Maybe it was 8th grade civics for you.
Speaker D:They teaching it earlier than that now and we still don't know it.
Speaker A:Why are they teaching it earlier?
Speaker D:Why not?
Speaker D:I mean, they can't, they can't teach kids about slavery and like that is rookie government.
Speaker A:Wow.
Speaker D:When you can reduce that, the section of American history to slavery with saying, you know, some slave owners really weren't all that bad and then move straight on to the next section like.
Speaker C:100.
Speaker D:And then, and then Lincoln made them all free.
Speaker C:He did something.
Speaker A:I mean, so.
Speaker D:Like, yeah, man, they got plenty of time to talk about it.
Speaker D:Doesn't mean that anybody's paying attention to it.
Speaker D:And actually I'm gonna disagree.
Speaker D:I bet they're more teenagers that understand the way government works than 25 to 35 year old.
Speaker D:Because once you get out of school where people even talking about it, most people just check out the whole idea of government.
Speaker D:I still, I still talk to people on a daily basis who will say to me, like, ain't no point in voting because all the candidates vote the same thing.
Speaker D:I'm like, I mean, I feel what you're saying in principle.
Speaker D:Like, you're basically saying, I don't like either one of the candidates.
Speaker D:That's fair.
Speaker D:But one of them potentially can hurt you more than the other one.
Speaker D:And I know that's a terrible way to vote.
Speaker D:Like, who can hurt me the least?
Speaker D:Least.
Speaker D:But it's still on the board.
Speaker C:Is that, is That a terrible way to think, though.
Speaker D:No, no, no, no.
Speaker D:It's, it's a terrible choice to have.
Speaker D:Okay,.
Speaker C:Okay.
Speaker D:Because basically it's like, hey, do you want to get shot or stabbed?
Speaker D:And I guess my answer would be, which way do I have the greater chance of survival?
Speaker D:Like, okay, cool, I'm gonna pick that.
Speaker D:Yes, I still have the potential to hurt me, but, you know, kind of want to survive this thing.
Speaker D:And this whole blunt that happened, I think some people are missing the plot where they're just like, hey, look, the country has Kumbayat and they've, they've rebelled against Trump and the, in the evil.
Speaker D:And I'm just like, nah, man, white people broke.
Speaker D:If we weren't in war and gas prices didn't get jacked up, do either one of y' all think this would have happened?
Speaker D:If we weren't in war and Diesel prices weren't $6 a gallon, do you think all these white people would have voted this way?
Speaker D:I can see maybe the Latino vote coming back to Democrat after the ice, but the big shock was how many white people voted this way.
Speaker D:Do you think if gas prices are what they were a year ago, we see this blue wave like this.
Speaker D:I don't, maybe that's just me.
Speaker D:I don't.
Speaker D:So I'm, I'm not ready to be like, hey, the country's figured out the moral compass and not it happened.
Speaker A:I mean, I, I, I agree with you.
Speaker A:I mean, I was in North Carolina last week for a couple days.
Speaker A:Well, not like, yeah, last week.
Speaker A:And gas was like 333.
Speaker A:Because apparently that was one of the states that got a tax pause on gas, you know, because Virginia's like, It was like four something and I crossed that.
Speaker A:North Carolina, that joint said 3:33.
Speaker A:I was like, what?
Speaker D:Yeah, because that was one of those states they weren't trying to lose.
Speaker A:And they lost that horribly.
Speaker A:Horribly.
Speaker A:I mean, I just, you know, in all, in all of this, man, I think the thing that was amazing the most.
Speaker A:What's two states, man?
Speaker A:Kansas, bro.
Speaker A:Kansas ain't been blue in 90 some years.
Speaker C:Oh, they won in Kansas.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker D:94 Years.
Speaker A:94 Years.
Speaker C:Okay.
Speaker A:That was wild.
Speaker A:And it looks like Mississippi is about to get a Democratic congressman too.
Speaker A:And I was like, what?
Speaker C:Should have let that man be a judge.
Speaker C:Wouldn't be talking about all this.
Speaker A:I mean, very, very true.
Speaker C:Just saying.
Speaker D:I mean, you, you say Kansas and Mississippi and I, I'mma ride with you on your Mississippi.
Speaker D:Kansas doesn't surprise me as much because farmers are really affected Right now.
Speaker A:Yeah, yeah,.
Speaker D:That.
Speaker D:Not.
Speaker D:They rolling Greg Abbott out.
Speaker A:Literally.
Speaker D:I mean, you.
Speaker D:You know what I mean.
Speaker D:You.
Speaker D:You know what I mean.
Speaker C:You know you meant to say that.
Speaker C:Don't even try.
Speaker A:Yeah, when she called him Governor Hot Wheels.
Speaker A:Oh, my God, I was weak.
Speaker D:I mean, look, man, what happened in Texas is like, how bad of a candidate do you have to be as revoke?
Speaker D:Like, him not winning Texas.
Speaker D:If you are in the Republican Party and you're talking to Paxton, and this is not me making light of the idea of like, mental health and people who really feel like this.
Speaker D:But, like, sometimes it's appropriate to be like, man, go kill yourself.
Speaker D:Like, there's no reason on earth you lose.
Speaker D:You should lose Texas.
Speaker D:It's just.
Speaker D:It's just not supposed to happen.
Speaker D:Well,.
Speaker A:Texas shouldn't have ran number one.
Speaker D:Once again, that's what I'm saying.
Speaker D:Like, as much as that's a big win for the Democrats, that's really just a big miss by the Republican Party.
Speaker D:And then like, Elon Musk dropped so much money into his campaign, man.
Speaker D:And I get it.
Speaker D:He a trillionaire.
Speaker D:He don't give a.
Speaker A:Well, they're their campaigns.
Speaker D:I'm saying he don't give a.
Speaker D:About the millions.
Speaker D:No, no, no.
Speaker D:He put money into Paxton's campaign.
Speaker D:Like, in particular, like, almost 200 million.
Speaker A:Yeah, I don't care about that.
Speaker D:Once that's.
Speaker A:A tax write out for him.
Speaker D:Once again, I get it.
Speaker D:He's a trillionaire head.
Speaker D:$200 Million ain't to him.
Speaker D:But I promise you, $200 million is still $200 million, no matter how much money you got.
Speaker D:Somewhere Elon Musk is going.
Speaker D:What the man?
Speaker A:And then, I mean, Abbott was about to go for term number four.
Speaker A:Hello, Texas.
Speaker A:You might want to put some term limits in your strength.
Speaker A:I guess the country was like.
Speaker A:Or excuse me, Texas was like, yeah, this guy.
Speaker A:Like, we gave you three terms this time.
Speaker A:Hey, man, like, she was what they said, the president, the governor elect, like, almost a week ago.
Speaker A:Before that Tuesday, she was still asking for money.
Speaker A:Money.
Speaker A:She.
Speaker D:Was out.
Speaker A:Of cash.
Speaker D:If you, Greg Abbott, you are only mad at Paxton because, like, I firmly believe the only reason he lost was because Paxton was such a bad candidate.
Speaker D:And I don't think most people do the split vote thing.
Speaker D:I don't think people vote Democrat for one, Republican for other.
Speaker D:I think people just decide live.
Speaker D:I' ma vote one way.
Speaker D:So whoever's at the top of the ticket, they kind of help everybody underneath.
Speaker D:So Greg Abbott was probably like, come.
Speaker A:On.
Speaker A:Well, he was the top of the ticket.
Speaker A:But that dude was dragging him down so horribly.
Speaker D:That's what I'm saying.
Speaker D:He was probably looking around like, come on, dog.
Speaker D:Like, accent, like, for real, this who we gonna roll with?
Speaker D:Oh, my God.
Speaker D:I gotta stop doing the roll stuff.
Speaker D:I'm not.
Speaker D:This is who we riding with.
Speaker A:I mean, you know, it's just.
Speaker A:And, well, but you're right on that, Moby, because TALARIGO had like 200,000 more votes, but both of them severely whipped the ass of the people they were going against.
Speaker A:A million.
Speaker A:A million people said, we don't like you.
Speaker A:An extra million said we don't like you.
Speaker C:I mean, as simplistic as it is, that's exactly what happened.
Speaker C:Happen.
Speaker A:Yeah,.
Speaker D:But what I'm saying, I don't think.
Speaker D:Oh, I don't think a million people said they don't like Abbott.
Speaker D:I think a million people said they didn't like Paxton and, And Abbott.
Speaker D:That's your man's.
Speaker D:You know what I'm saying?
Speaker D:It's like that.
Speaker D:That's your man's.
Speaker D:Right?
Speaker D:Because y' all on the same team.
Speaker D:They're not too many.
Speaker D:Like, look, there are people who will say, you know, there are a lot of people who say they're independent voters.
Speaker D:And I vote for the best candidates.
Speaker D:Different.
Speaker D:Most people vote one way.
Speaker D:Either picking all red or you're picking all blue.
Speaker D:They're very.
Speaker D:I, I just don't believe there are a lot of purple tickets out there.
Speaker D:Like people voting that way.
Speaker A:Well, which makes me think, how is that ticket, like, done?
Speaker A:Because in Virginia everything is se.
Speaker A:Everything is separate, you know, like governor, lieutenant governor,.
Speaker D:Blah, blah, blah.
Speaker D:I think, I think all the tickets are in that fashion.
Speaker A:Because if they voted like that in Texas, they weren't Republican.
Speaker A:Nope.
Speaker A:That Republican.
Speaker A:That.
Speaker A:Oh, what was the ag.
Speaker A:Republican.
Speaker A:That, like, they pretty much said, y' all Republicans are not good for us right now.
Speaker A:We're moving y' all and Ted Cruz ass.
Speaker A:If you don't get your straight in two years, you will be with them.
Speaker A:No, because those are four.
Speaker A:So Senate is six.
Speaker A:Six year terms.
Speaker D:Yeah.
Speaker D:And.
Speaker A:The governor's four year terms.
Speaker A:So really, in Texas, the only person who's going to be on the ballot in two years is Ted Cruz.
Speaker A:And if you.
Speaker A:My hope is, is they are trying to find someone to get his ass about the bank.
Speaker A:Provided that the next two years go well for Texas.
Speaker A:I mean, look, we had so many things happen this year.
Speaker A:I mean, you got, you got women governors, you got the first black woman governor.
Speaker A:I mean, they had three.
Speaker A:Three, was it?
Speaker A:Two Latino and.
Speaker A:And one black woman.
Speaker A:Governor, like, you know how bad off your places are?
Speaker A:Like, I'm not trying to.
Speaker A:On them, because I'm not.
Speaker A:But it's just like.
Speaker A:It's like I should have played the lottery on Tuesday with certain numbers, because if your was red, you roll snake eyes like a.
Speaker A:All day.
Speaker D:And.
Speaker A:Lost.
Speaker D:Except for your man.
Speaker A:Except for your man,.
Speaker D:Byron Donaldson.
Speaker D:He.
Speaker D:He represents.
Speaker A:That guy.
Speaker A:God.
Speaker A:But he don't.
Speaker A:But he barely won.
Speaker A:It's.
Speaker D:Not.
Speaker A:Like he beat some ass.
Speaker A:Barely won.
Speaker C:It wins a win.
Speaker D:They don't put no action beside that win and be like.
Speaker D:But you only worry about this amount.
Speaker A:But the interesting thing about that is he also has got his own problems in.
Speaker A:In Florida because a lot of those Republicans did not get reelected in Florida.
Speaker A:There's some blue in Florida, too.
Speaker A:Not as much, but it was more now than it was before.
Speaker A:So, like.
Speaker A:Like, I don't know.
Speaker A:But that guy, straight.
Speaker D:Up dud.
Speaker D:What do either one of y' all think about it?
Speaker D:Like, do y' all think it says anything about where our country is, or do you think it's really just like, no people broke?
Speaker C:No, I think everything you said is correct because I.
Speaker A:Think it's a little bit.
Speaker C:I don't.
Speaker C:I don't want anybody to confuse what happened on Tuesday with this.
Speaker C:The people that make up this country or any better.
Speaker C:Better.
Speaker C:They're not.
Speaker C:Their personal interests weren't met.
Speaker C:And in fact, they were hurt and they were extra pissed off that it happened to them.
Speaker C:They're not used to things happening to them.
Speaker C:They're used to things happening to us.
Speaker C:So when it happened to them, they weren't empathetic.
Speaker C:They didn't get better as a person.
Speaker C:They just got mad.
Speaker C:And this is what mad looks like.
Speaker C:Just like,.
Speaker A:Yeah, yeah, I think that.
Speaker A:I think that.
Speaker A:And Ruben, I.
Speaker D:Think what you said is fair.
Speaker D:I think.
Speaker D:I think that is fair.
Speaker D:It's a comedy.
Speaker D:Like.
Speaker D:Like, I'm not saying that simply every white person decided that they broke, but I'm just saying the large.
Speaker D:Like, I don't.
Speaker D:I'm also not convinced that every white person was just like, you know what?
Speaker D:This rhetoric in politics is just bothering me, so I'm gonna switch over to Democrats.
Speaker D:I don't believe that.
Speaker D:Like, it's just like, no, you just mad all the.
Speaker D:That somebody told you some rich white dude, or orange, whichever color umbrella you prefer to call him, some rich orange dude, told you he was save your money, end wars and do all this, and now we're in wars,.
Speaker A:Everybody,.
Speaker D:No money.
Speaker D:And then he was promising to give you more money.
Speaker A:I mean, hey, man, if the Republicans win Congress, I'm gonna give everybody $5,000.
Speaker C:I'm glad you said that.
Speaker C:I was about to say it.
Speaker D:Shout out to a very particular group of people.
Speaker D:Shout out to the uneducated, broke white person in middle America who heard him say that and was like, nah, we ain't falling for that again, my guy.
Speaker C:But some of them did.
Speaker D:Yeah, I said shout out to the ones who didn't.
Speaker C:Yeah, true enough.
Speaker C:You did.
Speaker C:Yeah, you sure did.
Speaker A:Also, the other two things I. I feel like we need to talk about in this, then we'll move on to something else.
Speaker A:Maine, bro.
Speaker A:Susan Khan's lost to a damn nobody.
Speaker A:He had a hundred and, like, ten days to run.
Speaker A:She been there for damn near 30 years.
Speaker A:And how much do you think.
Speaker A:Because remember, even when the other dude who has some issues was going, they were saying he was gonna beat Susan Collins because Susan Collins don't be looking out for them.
Speaker A:For real, you know?
Speaker A:And they don't like Susan Collins.
Speaker D:And.
Speaker A:They finally found somebody.
Speaker D:She lied to them.
Speaker D:30 Years ago.
Speaker A:Yeah,.
Speaker D:30 Years ago.
Speaker D:She was like, I'm only serving two turns because I don't think people should be able to run without turning.
Speaker D:She said that?
Speaker D:That was.
Speaker C:So 18 years later.
Speaker A:No, no, no.
Speaker A:28 Years later.
Speaker A:I.
Speaker C:Thought you said she'd been there 30 years.
Speaker C:In age terms, six years.
Speaker D:Yeah.
Speaker A:Yeah, but it's math.
Speaker D:So she said.
Speaker D: She said, like,: Speaker D:She was like, yeah, you know, I don't.
Speaker D:I'm only gonna serve two terms.
Speaker D:I don't think anybody should serve more than two terms.
Speaker D:It should be term limits.
Speaker D:And then.
Speaker D:Then she got that.
Speaker D:She got that juice and was like, you know what?
Speaker D:What?
Speaker A:This is.
Speaker D:Not good.
Speaker A:And she.
Speaker A:Apparently she.
Speaker A:She got.
Speaker A:Made a lot of money, though.
Speaker C:Ton of money.
Speaker A:But she didn't get everybody a ton of money.
Speaker C:Well, I mean, in all fairness, she did allow for Maine to get more money than through anybody else.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker C:Because.
Speaker C:Because everything.
Speaker C:All the committees that she was on, I mean, she made sure Maine got paid.
Speaker C:But she.
Speaker A:Got paid.
Speaker A:They've been trying to get rid of her ass for at least a decade, and they just couldn't find anybody to beat her.
Speaker D:She's survivor, man.
Speaker D:And look, man, I'm not gonna shit on her.
Speaker D:Believe me.
Speaker D:I'm not.
Speaker A:Gonna be.
Speaker D:A hypocrite and be like, yo, she said she was only gonna serve two term limits.
Speaker D:That line heifer lied.
Speaker D:No, as.
Speaker D:As Somebody who was currently working at the place that I said I was gonna work part time at until I finished school 20 years ago.
Speaker D:You know, so I understand how it is.
Speaker D:You get the job, you get a little bread, you're like, you know what?
Speaker D:Maybe I was a bit too haste about this whole leaving thing.
Speaker A:I mean, so.
Speaker A:But yeah, man, that's.
Speaker A:That's.
Speaker A:I think the messed up part about it is the dude had like 110 days to run against her.
Speaker A:And they.
Speaker A:They were just like, like, man, we like this dude more than her in 100 days.
Speaker A:That's kind of a slap in the face.
Speaker A:For real.
Speaker A:For real.
Speaker D:Or Reuben.
Speaker D:They were just like, hey, red isn't good anymore.
Speaker D:We're going to go blue.
Speaker D:I mean, I think a lot of people really didn't like.
Speaker D:I know we like to talk about, oh, this person ran this race, or the people just don't like you.
Speaker D:I think the overarching message of this election was really like, people just don't.
Speaker D:With red right now because.
Speaker A:Not for me.
Speaker D:Money.
Speaker D:The economy ain't.
Speaker D:The economy ain't hitting on what it used to hit on for them.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:And I.
Speaker A:And I would say the other thing we need to talk about and then we'll move on is the work that was done in Georgia finally came to fruition because they've been trying to turn Georgia blue for damn near 20 years.
Speaker D:Shout out to Stacy, man.
Speaker A:I mean, Stacey Abrams.
Speaker A:Yep.
Speaker A:You had to find a.
Speaker A:A good governor candidate, which they finally found.
Speaker A:And the former mayor of Atlanta.
Speaker A:And hell if.
Speaker A:If Bottoms can run Atlanta pretty well.
Speaker A:I think she can run freaking Georgia.
Speaker A:So we about to find out.
Speaker D:Well, to most.
Speaker D:To most of the country, Atlanta is Georgia.
Speaker C:100.
Speaker A:Yeah,.
Speaker C:100.
Speaker D:Every time I used to tell people I was from Georgia.
Speaker D:Oh, man, I love Atlanta.
Speaker D:We got all from Atlanta.
Speaker A:I mean, so, like, yo, that.
Speaker A:I mean, the first.
Speaker A:First.
Speaker A:The first African American female governor.
Speaker A:That's wild.
Speaker A:And I think.
Speaker A:I hope she does a good job there.
Speaker A:I mean, because I'm pretty sure she understands she is.
Speaker A:She is literally gonna be a test subject for the future.
Speaker A:Because if she sucks at her job, cancel Christmas in the future for that.
Speaker D:I mean, all she gotta do is be better than fl.
Speaker D:Florida.
Speaker C:Now, my question is, in Georgia, is it the same as it is here where you can't run consecutive terms?
Speaker A:I have no idea.
Speaker C:Okay.
Speaker A:I think, I think it's.
Speaker A:I think you got two consecutive terms and you're done.
Speaker A:Because that's also what happened in North Carolina with the governor of North Carolina, the current governor of North Carolina won a senate seat.
Speaker A:He was like, you know, I can't run for governor anymore.
Speaker A:Anymore.
Speaker A:Let's go to Washington.
Speaker A:And they beat.
Speaker A:He beat the dog out of somebody.
Speaker A:Once again, North Carolina is blue.
Speaker A:Words I've never said in my life.
Speaker A:Like, damn, South Carolina turned blue a little bit too.
Speaker A:What's good?
Speaker A:I mean, once again, I think a lot of it was just the wrong people running from.
Speaker A:For the wrong, like good old Trump.
Speaker A:Man, I'm gonna put these people up here and you gonna run on me.
Speaker A:And it's like, nah, man, your name is.
Speaker A:Because what did we say a couple weeks ago about Brian Donaldson?
Speaker A:Obscure.
Speaker A:Byron Donald's kind of doing the moonwalk back off, away from Trump.
Speaker A:And he's probably like, man, what you're not gonna do is my shit up.
Speaker A:And he is one of the few that survived, you know what DeSantis call it?
Speaker A:An extension level event.
Speaker A:Yo, when he said that, I was like, bro, we ain't nothing to blow up.
Speaker A:But I guess you ain't wrong that and that that dude might be running for president.
Speaker A:Miss me on that?
Speaker C:Oh, it's still.
Speaker C:That doesn't mean he can't do it.
Speaker C:So just,.
Speaker A:I mean, yeah, he could do it.
Speaker A:I mean, but I guess that's the next step, right?
Speaker A:Officially.
Speaker A:Who are the Democrats gonna put up that they gotta find somebody, they got two years to put that person together?
Speaker A:Because I, I don't understand how the Democrats can't.
Speaker A:You can't win the presidency back unless they it up themselves.
Speaker A:Like you actually have, you actually have the worst president approval wise in history.
Speaker A:I mean, you could put a dog up there.
Speaker A:And they should probably be able to win president at this moment.
Speaker A:And then J.D.
Speaker A:Vance is done.
Speaker A:He's trash.
Speaker A:Rubio's pretty much trash.
Speaker A:So.
Speaker D:You know what, man, I wouldn't count those two dudes out, man.
Speaker A:They gonna run.
Speaker A:But.
Speaker D:No, no, no, Reuben, two years, man.
Speaker D:They got two years to just distance themselves from Trump, and now they ain't really got no reason to not distance themselves from Trump.
Speaker D:They can kind of do it it on the slide.
Speaker A:So I think Rubio has a better chance than what's his face because he co.
Speaker A:Signed with Trump on that.
Speaker A:In Ohio.
Speaker A:No.
Speaker A:Michigan.
Speaker A:When they, when Ramaswamy did that, that, that thing about, about the art.
Speaker A:The commercial, about his opponent.
Speaker A:Yeah, man, like what.
Speaker D:You, you think that, you think that's why that candidate lost against him because of, because of the, the hit campaign?
Speaker D:I don't.
Speaker D:I still think people voted for that with their wallets, man.
Speaker D:Like, I know people are saying, oh, that Pete.
Speaker D:That struck people's moral compass.
Speaker D:People just can support that.
Speaker D:I'm just like, yeah, two years, man.
Speaker D:Ain't nobody worried about that.
Speaker A:But.
Speaker A:But what I would say, I think that.
Speaker A:I'm not gonna say I don't think Ramaswamy is going to win anyway, to be real.
Speaker A:But I think that that made it worse for him.
Speaker A:It made.
Speaker A:It gave people a reason not to vote for his ass.
Speaker A:But then when.
Speaker D:They just gave people a story on why people weren't voting for.
Speaker A:But like, I get Trump backing that.
Speaker A:But come on, Vance.
Speaker A:Like, you can't.
Speaker A:You can't back that.
Speaker A:Like, Trump shouldn't even back that.
Speaker A:But if you're gonna do dumb, Trump ain't got to lose because I promise you, his last day, he is going to an extradited country, a non extradition country.
Speaker A:Country.
Speaker A:His ass is out.
Speaker A:Because honestly, if they could make it work, he would be the first president to go to jail.
Speaker A:But I don't think we got the.
Speaker A:I don't think we got the stones for that, America.
Speaker A:I don't.
Speaker A:I just don't think we did.
Speaker A:So Tuesday.
Speaker A:Tuesday craziness from jump.
Speaker A:It started crazy and it's still crazy.
Speaker D:Shout out to Virginia because they.
Speaker D:They decided that race at705.705, Virginia will stay.
Speaker D:I like, damn,.
Speaker C:Bro.
Speaker A:People was out, man.
Speaker A:Especially like.
Speaker A:Cause.
Speaker D:They closed the polls at 7 and like at 704, we had an announcement to make.
Speaker A:Lauria beat her ass.
Speaker A:Which, honestly, living down here, I'm surprised Luria lost the last time.
Speaker A:I'm just being honest.
Speaker A:I didn't think she was supposed.
Speaker A:I think she would lose that to Ken.
Speaker A:I. I was shocked.
Speaker A:And then Kickins got in there and did a whole bunch of nothing.
Speaker A:And so, hey,.
Speaker C:Honestly, the only reason I think Kickins won last time is because they did that redistricting.
Speaker C:But that's neither here nor there.
Speaker C:She got a handed to her today or Tuesday.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Which is funny, right?
Speaker A:Texas, North Carolina, Florida was kind of unaffected, but they were affected.
Speaker A:But not as good.
Speaker A:No,.
Speaker D:No, no.
Speaker D:Florida did five extra seats and I think three or four of those seats for one fight.
Speaker A:Correct.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:So like, you do the gerrymandering and you got.
Speaker C:Well, we talked about that when the Supreme Court did what they did.
Speaker C:I remember all of us.
Speaker C:Well, I know I said it.
Speaker C:I can remember what y' all said.
Speaker C:But the bottom line is this doesn't change the fact that you still.
Speaker C:You can still actually vote Vote, you're gonna have to work harder and it might not look like you, but you can still affect things.
Speaker C:You have to vote and stop planning your food.
Speaker C:So yeah, that showed itself.
Speaker C:That showed itself Tuesday.
Speaker C:People just was gonna vote, period.
Speaker A:The world, well, our country is in dire straits and the majority of the country is like this, this is stupid.
Speaker A:And they let people know, you know, I guess we got two more years left of Ted Cruz.
Speaker A:I wonder what he's going to give us for two years.
Speaker D:I mean.
Speaker C:More Ted Cruz.
Speaker D:I, I wouldn't feel so confident that in two years they going to get rid of Cruz.
Speaker D:I think in two years we could easily be having this pendulum swing back in the up in, in the other direction.
Speaker D:Easily.
Speaker A:What?
Speaker A:Well, it won't swing as hard because in two years it won't be so many seats up.
Speaker A:But.
Speaker C:Got a bad record, man, I'm telling you.
Speaker A:No, no, I agree.
Speaker A:I'm saying, all I'm saying is like something like this happens once every six years.
Speaker A:So like, you know, whatever they're going to do, better get it right or like you said, said that's why people, that's why people can vote.
Speaker A:And that's the positive about our democracy.
Speaker A:Because in two years you don't like switch it up.
Speaker A:Two more years you don't like switch it up.
Speaker A:And that's what usually happens anyway.
Speaker A:It is very rare that a president has 100 complete power throughout their whole presidency, whether a Democrat or Republican.
Speaker A:It's very rare.
Speaker A:I, I don't what Reagan may be the last one to have a Republican Congress and a Republican Senate for four years.
Speaker A:I'm not sure.
Speaker A:I have to do some research on that.
Speaker A:But I can't imagine for four years he might be the only one.
Speaker A:Cuz I don't think Clinton had it for four years like that, you know, straight a straightforward four.
Speaker A:I'll do some research on that.
Speaker A:We'll talk about that next week.
Speaker A:But with that being said, Ag man, what's on your mind?
Speaker C:Well, we talked about what's on my mind.
Speaker C:I think Tuesday was really important.
Speaker C:I'm glad people, for whatever reasons they voted the way they did.
Speaker C:I'm glad they did.
Speaker C:But word of caution to Democrats, this was only a step.
Speaker C:You have a lot to show so it doesn't go back the other way in two years.
Speaker C:If you don't get this right, then everything that the Republican party is holding in anger, vitriol, all of it, man, if you think it was bad, then it's going to be terribly bad going forward.
Speaker C:So Democrats in D.C. get it right.
Speaker C:That's all I gotta say.
Speaker C:Get it right.
Speaker A:Except Moby, what's on your mind?
Speaker D:Completely unrelated to anything that we talking about.
Speaker D:I just wanted to acknowledge that my kids are funny.
Speaker D:So getting in the car today, my youngest said something that was.
Speaker D:Was just fucking hilarious to me.
Speaker D:And it was just funny because of how she said it.
Speaker D:Get in the car.
Speaker D:There's a song playing.
Speaker D:Happens to be one of my favorite songs.
Speaker D:Troop, spread my wings.
Speaker D:The song is playing, it's jamming and cadence.
Speaker D:Gets in the car and says, hey, dad, that it's your gay song.
Speaker D:Can't make that up, man.
Speaker A:Are you.
Speaker C:Okay?
Speaker D:And because I have told both of them that, like, you know, the beauty of that song is, like, songwriters, gay, male.
Speaker D:And if you listen to the lyrics of that song, it's clearly a song about coming out.
Speaker D:Like, it's.
Speaker D:It's literally what the song's about.
Speaker A:This death.
Speaker D:And I'm just like.
Speaker D:But that's why I love it so much, because he did it so nuanced and so blatant.
Speaker D:But the song, jamming, like, it's a jamming ass song.
Speaker D:But the fact that she just like, hey, dad, your gay song.
Speaker D:And that was it.
Speaker D:It was.
Speaker D:It was casual.
Speaker D:It was no.
Speaker D:No malice.
Speaker D:It was just like, yeah, just a gay song.
Speaker D:And then.
Speaker D:And I was like, yo, man.
Speaker D:Thinking to myself, if somebody would just heard her say that, would they be allowed to be offended?
Speaker D:Because, I mean, if I reference something as being some real black, we simply acknowledge the fact that I'm a black person.
Speaker D:Therefore I can say some shit's black.
Speaker D:So I feel like she could clearly tell, hey, this is a gay song, dad.
Speaker D:Because, you know, she can say that, but I'm just like, yo, the casual, honest.
Speaker D:And when she said it, man, it was.
Speaker D:It was no laughter afterwards.
Speaker D:Like, I don't even.
Speaker D:You wouldn't even known she said something that could be deemed as funny.
Speaker D:She just was like, oh, dude, put her headphones on.
Speaker D:It was just whatever.
Speaker D:And nobody in the car reacted to me like, I was the only one that was like.
Speaker D:She just.
Speaker D:I'm like, yo, did you just call that a gay song?
Speaker D:She's like, yes, it's this.
Speaker D:She, like, that's the only reason I know the song.
Speaker D:Because, like, it's.
Speaker D:It's, you know, guy who's gay.
Speaker D:And I'm like, well, I don't think they were gay singing.
Speaker D:I don't.
Speaker D:But that's not important.
Speaker D:Did you just call it a gay song?
Speaker D:That's a Gay song.
Speaker C:I gotta say this.
Speaker C:You were, weren't you just a little proud, though?
Speaker D:No.
Speaker D:Extremely.
Speaker C:Okay.
Speaker C:Because you've been complaining for years that they weren't, you know,.
Speaker D:Good at joking on people.
Speaker D:That, that's, that's the thing.
Speaker D:They're not good at joking.
Speaker D:And Cadence is better at it than her older sister.
Speaker C:Is she better at it?
Speaker C:Does that, her being better at it, does that make her good or does that just make her.
Speaker D:Better than her sister?
Speaker D:It makes her respectable.
Speaker D:She, she can be respectable.
Speaker D:And look, it's, it's, it's a. I get it.
Speaker D:I might have a really high bar that.
Speaker D:So, so maybe other people would be like, no, man, she's funny.
Speaker D:She's, she's good at it.
Speaker D:I'm just like, no, man, I expect more.
Speaker D:I expect more.
Speaker D:But how can.
Speaker C:You expect more if they're really giving you all they have and leaving it out of there?
Speaker C:Leaving it all out there.
Speaker C:I mean, really?
Speaker C:Or is that not true?
Speaker D:No, it's not.
Speaker D:It, it, it might be true.
Speaker D:Ag.
Speaker D:And, and I'm not, I'm not trying to shine one me.
Speaker D:I'm not.
Speaker D:This is just the only, it's the only example I can give Ag.
Speaker C:Okay,.
Speaker D:I, I gotta imagine that Michael Jordan looked at his sons play basketball.
Speaker D:And one of his sons was a pretty decent college basketball player.
Speaker D:And I gotta think that one, Michael Jordan just kept saying, that's it.
Speaker D:Like, did you see me do this?
Speaker D:Like, like, if I did this, you, you should at least be.
Speaker D:Come on, man.
Speaker D:Like, you got to be better than this.
Speaker D:So, so sometimes I gotta say that I'm putting my expectations on them.
Speaker D:And it might be unfair, but I'm just like, I'm way better at this and I had to pass something on to you.
Speaker D:And look, man, I can't just blame their mom for everyone.
Speaker D:Everything, like, personal responsibility has to come into play.
Speaker D:Like, so I just got to tell myself they not applying themselves, man.
Speaker C:Wait a minute.
Speaker C:We just agree that they're leaving it all the way out there, man.
Speaker C:It's like they ain't got nothing left.
Speaker C:So what you.
Speaker D:Mean?
Speaker D:I don't believe it.
Speaker D:I don't believe it.
Speaker D:I, I.
Speaker D:What it, what it is, is they are just too kind spirited.
Speaker C:Well, you're not mean.
Speaker C:You're a counter puncher by nature, so you're not mean.
Speaker D:But I'm a counter puncher.
Speaker D:Like, I don't even.
Speaker D:They're pacifists.
Speaker D:They're pacifists.
Speaker D:So are you.
Speaker C:Until somebody attacks you.
Speaker D:You keep putting that disclaimer up there.
Speaker D:So.
Speaker C:You mean to tell me if somebody attacked them, then they ain't got nothing?
Speaker D:My youngest has a little son, Kira.
Speaker D:Man, I don't know, man.
