Speaker
I'm gonna go ahead and put the link in the chat so that anybody wants to come up and of talk about their feelings, so to speak. Feelings, I'm here about feelings.
00:06:32
Speaker
ah Yeah, you probably would have, depending on how much you started drinking before you went live. I agree, but no. um Yeah, I'm kind of at a loss here, dude.
00:06:45
Speaker
There he is. There's Chaka. There's Chaka. Well, he, I know he had mentioned, I know he had mentioned talking about the political fatigue or election exhaustion. Oh God. Yes. Yes. yeah Even now, even now it's still, you know, I get it. Some people are bragging. Some people are pissing and moaning, but it's like, you know what? Something else on my FYB would be great.
00:07:12
Speaker
Anything what is fyp? What is fyp for you page?
00:07:19
Speaker
On tiktok that's when you turn it on now you first turn on tiktok and it shows You have the two ops of who you're following and then what the other one home Yeah for you At the top you have follower following and for you the for you is your fyp Oh, okay, you guys have to realize I am I'm learning. I'm still learning to talk like I found out last week that I was getting I made a few bucks just doing debates. So i thought that was pretty I saw that. i saw yeah Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I saw that to you coming up and fucking shit up. I had a good point.
00:08:05
Speaker
You had a good point, but you were du kind of sit on me because I had asked a question. So, okay. So it was part of the conversation. Here's, here's the setup. See there, I see Jeff just said it. He thought it was a conversation. I i participated in a speed debate.
00:08:21
Speaker
And it was 20 minutes. It was me against other people. And I would, I would debate so many different every 20 minutes. Jeff pops up
Veterans Day reflections and military anecdotes
00:08:30
Speaker
thinking it's a casual conversation. No, I didn't think it was a casual conversation. I got that. I didn't think it was a casual conversation. I knew it was a debate.
00:08:39
Speaker
however I wanted to make the point because you were talking, you guys, you guys were at that point talking about freeze. Yeah. But the thing is, i'm i'm like I don't want to get into it. When you, when you come up, it's like, it's debate mode. That's, that's funny. Nobody was responding to my comment saying, well, there's this and nobody mentioned it. Anyways, okay. now hey car's back Networking Jesus.
00:09:05
Speaker
It's like dealing with an amateur that's been doing this for two years. Fuck off. I've been doing this for less than two years. For less than two years. Get it right. Regardless. Chaka got up here before you did, dude. I've had four houses over the course of less than two years. I don't want to hear it about network issues. F off, Jeff.
00:09:33
Speaker
Ooh. Don't stop being um on my turn in the Swiss cheese. ah Yeah, yeah. But that's so so what we because you froze, we didn't know what your topic was for tonight. So we were just kind of rambling. Yeah. So the reason i've I've gathered you all here today minus Chaka, who just kind of joined in. I did. I put the link up. But he's got a gorgeous testicle head. So I'll leave him.
00:10:02
Speaker
thing
00:10:05
Speaker
The reason I've gathered you all here today was so that we can turn off the debate. Jeff. No, look at me. like I know you love the videos I'm sending you. Our debating minds. And we can talk about how fucking exhausting this election has been.
00:10:27
Speaker
free this select or infant pop every this every and all all election all elections this one just felt fucking terror i feel like
00:10:37
Speaker
You know,
Friendship beyond politics
00:10:40
Speaker
it does. Who's got network problems now, bitch? Anyway, he said he had very dropped though. I can't I can't stream it to my channel. So I guess I'm not going to do that today. It's it's not letting me connect. But that's It's not letting me connect. It's letting me connect. It's letting me connect. the whole It's point letting me connect. of It's letting me connect. It's letting me connect. It's letting me connect. It's letting me connect. It's letting me connect. having you and Blaze here tonight, was because Jeff is one end of the spectrum and Blaze is a whole other end of the spectrum when it comes to political views and the way that they see the world. I'm just, I'm just my own spectrum. Are you saying left and right? No, it's fucking weird. It's weird. It's very front, right? No, because Blaze is left.
00:11:25
Speaker
Blaze isn't even left. I know. He's in his own direction. He created a fourth dimension. He's our total left. And you are very blatantly right.
00:11:38
Speaker
And that's OK. He's about as left as But on top of that. On the view. this work, right?
00:11:51
Speaker
This is also, you guys are the perfect people to have up here because it is Veterans Day. Veterans Day. Woo hoo. And so what better, what better three people to have up here than us? And Chaka. I agree. Well, I can think about 40. But yeah, okay. because but I mean, you know, yes, we were all in the military, but better. Listen, i I shuffled the cards between branches. I tried every job. I did basic twice. Fuck it all. you know You know what? You know what that tells me?
Election process and decision fatigue
00:12:30
Speaker
The fact that you did you did the shuffling of cards. I'm stupid. That you're the stupidest one on the panel tonight. Yeah, I never claimed to be intelligent. Oh, we know.
00:12:40
Speaker
Never. Although I did see i did see a ah Facebook post earlier and it was like this sound. This girl's like, you know, the military is worse than only fans because you guys are selling your body to the government. like yeah way not that four point five million dollar check I mean,
00:13:01
Speaker
<unk>re they're not totally wrong. She's right. No, I'm mad because she's right. the worst part about him is maybe i'm the saying The worst part about it is gave me my body back, but in like way a worse condition. It's like a rental car. you're you're You're like how I use a rental car. Just beat the piss out of it. And I signed the insurance. Go for it. Take it back. Exactly. The military is like, yeah, ah you can have be a disability. In other words, if I ran my own hurts, I wouldn't i wouldn't run out to the military. That's what you're saying. No.
00:13:38
Speaker
oh I've I've I've given back. I should have started an only fans at 18. You know, I probably would have been way more would have been around. It would have been around when I was doing the Navy. I'm just saying. I'm telling you, if I would have done only bands for nine years straight, like I'd be killing it. Oh yeah. I'm a cute dude.
00:14:03
Speaker
Well, if no, but if you put the same amount, I could be in the top 90%. Well, if you put the same effort into an
Productive political conversations
00:14:10
Speaker
OnlyFans that you did into your military career, 100%, you would be in the top three. Yeah. Yeah. 100%. You know, there is the difference. The difference between OnlyFans is like you have somebody like Chris who has an OnlyFans, but he's up until recently, he's like, yeah, I have one, but I don't do anything with it.
00:14:27
Speaker
There's that side effect. And then you have a people that spend their entire life sending selfies to their only fans. See this baseball bat? Those are your military grade only fans. That's when I would start watching Glick's only fans. And we made it to baseball bat this year. This is Babe Ruth's real bat. You want to see it disappear?
00:14:55
Speaker
Oh, boy, do I. I would put that in Reddit tomorrow. We'd be famous on Reddit, buddy. Let me tell you. But I thought that that would be a good conversation for tonight. Obviously, Veterans Day, but also the can we like just fucking relax and be friends again for God's sake, please. ah yeah I'm so awesome I'm so proud because like Blaze and Jeff never stopped being friends.
00:15:26
Speaker
They think yeah they're both kind of dumb sometimes. Oh yeah, we both think we're each other. I think no, I'm i'm probably i'm probably i am the dumbest, I'm the dumbest one.
00:15:37
Speaker
You don't realize how dumb we are. Oh, so we can agree on that. Okay. I am dumb. We can start with some common ground. yeah That's the concept. The problem with politics anymore, it becomes a shouting match where nobody can hear what you're saying because yeah you're shouting over the person next to you who's saying something complete opposite is you.
00:16:00
Speaker
Where I have I have caught myself in a few of those. I'm sorry. I have yeah and I have as well. My wife and I don't agree on politics and political things. And after a while, it's like, you know, what excuse me. Death is speaking. Jeff is speaking. Give me give me speaking. Don't you dare interrupt him. Don't you dare.
00:16:25
Speaker
No, but it's like if if you're just in there to scream and holler, there's other shit you can go scream and holler at. Go scream at baseball. Go scream at everything else. Go scream at your only fans. If you're not willing to have a conversation, you shouldn't be in the quote unquote fight. I think honestly, and I think that's how some of us take politics as like we're rooting a for a sports team. So we get emotionally caught up in the in the similar kind of way.
00:16:55
Speaker
That's 100% true. you two two percent true i mean sho you fish i want I want to get a couple real quick points across. Point number one. I got the good stuff today, Chaka. Oh, monster. Dude, it's fucking 6 o'clock. What are you doing? I won't sleep until tomorrow if I drink that at 6 o'clock. I'll do it. I'll be in bed by 1 at the latest.
00:17:23
Speaker
but point number one. that i want argue you we are right I get it. I don't do it. If I don't have one, I'll be asleep by noon. Okay, Connor's trying to make a point. We keep talking. I'm sorry. Oh, no, no, no, you're good. You can talk over me all all day. I'm not speaking. um Damn you.
00:17:50
Speaker
yes point Point number one is even though somebody has different opinions on how to do it than you, everybody wants the same thing. When it comes to politics, when it comes to how to run the country or who should do it, it doesn't fucking matter. Everybody wants the same thing. They want the betterment of the country. You guys just disagree. um You guys disagree on how to how to how to do that and what a better country would look like.
00:18:18
Speaker
Point number two, and I can't stress this enough because back in 2020, we had a whole bunch of dudes on an air basin in Bagram, Afghanistan that were rooting for Trump to win and they fucking lost. And half of them thought that it was the end of the world and half of us were just like, well, we'll wait.
00:18:43
Speaker
to go back to work. What we need to realize is that don't get me, don't get me wrong. I understand that because of the media, because of the way that political ads are run, because of the way that people that politicians feel they have to portray other adversarial politicians. Everyone thinks that if their person doesn't win, that it's the end of the world. But the United States is a really cool system where every four years you get to try again.
00:19:12
Speaker
and the American people get to speak again. And whether you think Donald Trump is in it for fascism or dictatorship or whatever, he's not gonna overrule that. You can't get rid of that. It's not gonna happen. It's almost impossible to go from what we have to something completely different. It's almost impossible for one person to actually accomplish that. Hmm. Well, that's... I just wanna assure the people.
00:19:43
Speaker
Go ahead. What's up, Jedi? No, no. um are you gonna say or you're go say oh nothing i'm past it i' asked to Go ahead. I'm good. But I just wanted to reassure the people who didn't get the candidate they wanted to win and put into office that it will this will also come to an end. And at the end of this, this candidate that everyone seems to dislike so much We'll never be able to run again. And we'll start over with two with two new idiots. And we'll do this whole thing again in three years. years, there will be a fucking shitty one. The only way Donald Trump would be president again, and if somebody appointed him vice president, and then that person died.
00:20:33
Speaker
Right, which which has never happened, which is it's doable. It's just never it's doable. It's just never happened. and And it would be you want to talk about people losing their fucking minds. So so those are those are my two big main like points I want to know, but yes, but regardless of who won. Somebody won, somebody lost. Can we move on to anything else?
00:21:02
Speaker
on on rag social media in general, because as much as i I loved hearing everybody bitch and moan for the past, God knows how long, I'm so over it. It's like, you know what? I want to watch somebody build a truck. I wanted to show up on my FYP going, my motherfucker put 69 inch tires on a 49 Ford. That's pretty cool. i don't I don't want to hear some retard spouting what he thinks It's gonna make the country better but this person is like in bump fuck Egypt nowhere and doesn't know But they're the one guy the what the one of them the there's a guy on on tick-tock
00:21:49
Speaker
He talks about American politics all the time. He's not even American. I found this out like three months ago. He lives in Europe somewhere, but he shits on everything and it's hilarious. I think on some level our our our politics, what happens in our country affects other countries. And I mean, um because our policies and the way they affect the world, they're not in a bubble. And I mean, this whole isolation ideas, oh, no, never, never going to work or never, never really been a thing because.
00:22:27
Speaker
um
00:22:30
Speaker
Go ahead, go ahead ahead. Well, I was just saying, the easiest example is, as you guys know, I work remotely, the company I work for is in the States, I get paid US dollars, but I have to spend pesos. Well, when the dollar and peso exchange rate, the day of the election, jump 3.3 pesos per dollar. So which means when I get paid, I get paid more than I did before. Like if I get a hundred dollars, I get 2,000 pesos as opposed to 1,800, which is a big deal. I mean, granted 200 pesos, but 200 pesos, I can buy four monsters, just saves. It's not lazy Jedi. I think, but but yeah, it affects other countries. Back to the whole exhaustion thing though. i
00:23:29
Speaker
I'm not going to say I'm taking a break from it from like getting into politics and stuff, but between now and inaugural inauguration day, I'm kind of just.
00:23:40
Speaker
over it, taking a break. It's like, um I don't, I don't view politics as a sports, but this is sort of like my off season. You know, that's best I agree. I agree. and Because I get it. There's a lot of people that do politics for a living on wherever it be, whether it be YouTube, where it be TikTok CNN, whoever you work for, you can make money on politics as a commentator and talking about it. I get that.
00:24:10
Speaker
But for it to be every other video that I see on my YouTube, on my TikTok, on everything, I'm so ready to be like, I need to fucking, you know, you can restart your algorithm on TikTok. I'm just saying where it starts scratch. Oh, can you really? You can. It's actually better for you guys because you're in the States. For me, for the next month, I see nothing but Mexican videos, which I'm fine with. but How do you do that? How do you restart?
00:24:39
Speaker
I'll send you a tutorial. I found I found a video on it on on tick tock actually ah But it's it's it's there's really a reset button in your settings That you could basically it clears it kind of like clears your cookies so to speak of your tick tock and it starts from scratch Your followers are still there but it's there, but it reaches its it zeros out your your algorithm and It's like clearing out the cash. Yeah, I've done it twice. And every time I do it, I'm like, why did I do that? Now I have to wait like a month before I can actually see the videos I actually care about instead of the next door neighbor. Hey,
00:25:19
Speaker
i it's not easy finding those videos. Trust me, buddy. I'm just saying. ah but watching it pop up on my F.I.P. again. God damn it. I'm just saying it's hard to find that algorithm. But but you know, if you're I get it, your algorithm switches because the stuff you watch longer and during the election and coming up to the election. Yeah, I watched more political stuff because I was curious on who's leading or who's doing what. Now I'm like now you fucking see.
00:25:55
Speaker
um Yeah, and it's I don't need every every time I see so and everybody's still doing a lot. Wow. I've seen shit for it. And I'm just I just want to fucking watch videos of people doing stupid shit. Like I don't care about the election anymore. It's over. What happened? We just what happened to kitty cats and funny video right for the longest time i happened the cats jumping off roofs and realizing a holy shit that was ah that was hot let talk for you boys let me tell ya
00:26:26
Speaker
on one the other day it's just But animals falling or running into stuff funny thing I've ever seen I Spent like two hours on that one page just going through all their videos um animals falling Yeah. She walks in and she likes to scare her cat. It's hilarious. She scares her cat and the cat doesn't realize it's standing next to a window and slams into the window pane and damn near knocks itself out. I laughed for 15 minutes. I was gonna say there was a moment in my life about five minutes where I spent watching
00:27:04
Speaker
cat scared of cucumbers. So I get it. maybe i want go get a cat Just to see if they really are scared of cucumbers. Animals yeah and are so dumb and it's hilarious. but plays and My kids have a cat and I shit you not I went out bought a cucumber just put it on the floor just to see if the cat would fuck with it. My cat wouldn't come downstairs. It was hilarious. It's carpets, penis, run.
00:27:31
Speaker
yeah right But same kermit's doing i saw like ah yeah he's home like yeah I saw a cat video of this cat standing on it um its like owner's shoulders and like half of it's on the bunk bed behind it. And it stands up straight to like try and touch the ceiling fan while it's going. And it shaves its head off. its but and Like the end of the video shows a picture of the cat and it's missing all of its hair right on top. My favorite video I've ever seen of cats is that one cat that's on the counter and then it backs up and somebody's re-edited it to make it have Michael Jackson's Billie Jean and it moonwalks. Funniest thing I've ever seen. So here's a definition. Yeah. Here's a definition. Voter for tea can be contributed
00:28:28
Speaker
to ah yeah absolutely yeah whatever tea can be contributed to a psychological phenomenon known as decision fatigue. As this suggests, our brains become mentally fatigued after making numerous decisions, so it will attempt to make shortcuts to decrease the workload. As decisions fatigue increases, more voters abstain.
00:28:49
Speaker
And I think, I think that right there as decision fatigue increases, more voters abstain. I think that's kind of, I think that was a ah role in this year's election cycle. Well, but I also get something. I disagree with that definition because like a lot of people made their decision early on the fatigue of seeing it all the time. That's where I got like, yeah you know,
00:29:18
Speaker
Well, what motor fatigue can do is is just prevent people from wanting to turn out because they're just so sick of fucking hearing. like at this point i was i'm just I'm just going off. no um this is This is from Pew Research Center. No matter who would have won or who would have lost, I don't care at the end of the day because what did I do the next day? I went back to work.
00:29:48
Speaker
same as I do every day. You know, I get it. It was a big deal. It looks like I'm not frozen. Stream guard is acting crazy. Like my, my screens are flashing right now. Yeah. Oh, we dropped blaze.
00:30:04
Speaker
oh at me with cat we have no left side of the panel Well, MK, the, the, the good thing about tonight is we're not talking politics to be, um,
00:30:16
Speaker
to be irritating and controversial. We're, we're talking about politics to talk about the relief. we don't talk about politics anymore Yeah. Cause it was for me, like it felt like I, so I went to bed on election night, like it's out of my hands and I don't care anymore. I was like, I was like, Oh God, I feel so, but so good. I wonder who won. Yeah.
00:30:43
Speaker
No, I was up until three. I watched. they just didn't It just didn't matter anymore. My best my favorite part was Rachel Maddow crying, but whatever. You know what? The like yeah the wind is going like crazy here, so it might actually cut off my internet. So I'm hanging out. The past week here, every night, fucking piss is down right. um Stop eating chili chocolate. It won't be as bad.
00:31:10
Speaker
Yeah.
00:31:13
Speaker
what that What's that? What's that? Strong gust of wind coming from the south. am i like When it comes to that decision fatigue, as it were, I experienced that going into dispensary sometimes. You're inundated with so many options. You're like, what am I going to do? Oh, man.
00:31:37
Speaker
I feel that at Taco Bell, dude.
00:31:42
Speaker
there's a restaurant i go that's like like thatco different types of tacos i'm like just give me one of each i guess But the cool thing about Taco Bell is everything tastes the fucking same. what you know it's like it's like It gives you the same effect. ah You eat it, your tummy hurts, you poop, and then you feel better.
00:31:59
Speaker
I think that the decision fatigue too. That's like, that's like very calm. I like my get off work. If I was stressful, I guess that would work. It could me. Yeah. Have you seen the categories of poorly? Holy shit, dude. Not recently. Oh my gosh. There's like 65 on the website. There's like everything. I like your point.
00:32:26
Speaker
Also, I just missionary is out. That's all I that's all I got of mine. I gotta i get it upgrade my form. Yeah, you need to upgrade dude. I come home after a busy day making decisions. about all the gem in time out I don't want to make no decisions when I come home. I like to shut off. I just put in the private chat the link.
00:32:45
Speaker
Nobody wants to link to your porn. This I say is, no, no, no, no. It's not my porn. I don't use porn. Don't do it. I've had this conversation. The best porn site ever is in this prime chat. It's the best porn site in the history of porn sites. No pop-ups. Actually, now I'm serious. Now I'm curious. Jeff's favorite porn site is Blue Waffle. Bluewaffle.com.
00:33:11
Speaker
No, but but but do you think I forgot my point. that it's It's almost like the opposite of of an addiction when it comes to politics. like when It's kind of like you first get addicted to watching. You got to find out everything you got to know. Then after a point, you're less like, I don't fucking care.
00:33:36
Speaker
because there's no real payoff. For instance, there's alcohol addiction, there's drug addiction, there's porn addiction. Those addictions have a win at the end where politics doesn't have that same kind of finite high win. so it it it depends on It depends on what you're looking at politics for. I look at politics is not so much rooting for anything but to kind of just understand why everything is working the way it does systematically and politics is a part of that so that's kind of my second part of that question do you think the election do you think it's always taken this long are we just so used to the instant gratification of
00:34:24
Speaker
Being able to order something and have it tomorrow is what is turning a lot of you off. For instance, if, if I say I'm going to run for president or mayor of my town next year, but the election is not the next year. So yeah. Um, that's actually like what you're talking about. If you, if you compare America to other countries that run campaigns, like let's say England or UK.
00:34:50
Speaker
their their election cycles are a whole lot shorter, they're like a couple months compared to yeah ours is like a year, a year and a half. Exactly. They have a significantly smaller group of people that they need to reach out to, right? That that is the main difference.
00:35:06
Speaker
However, know dispose a lot no, no, it's not, no, they, they do it. Well, it's not because they have less people. It's just, they got more shit to war. They start, they understand prioritization that elections campaigns don't need to run that long. It's just ridiculous. Well, Mexico school and does it for six months yeah and they have roughly the same amount of people.
00:35:32
Speaker
Exactly, Lazy. I agree. Way too long. they're Absolutely way too long. yeah but But that's what I'm saying. come on You don't get that instant gratification. Why won't it show?
00:35:44
Speaker
There it goes. It is showing. i i'm having I'm having a lag bad on this. Mine's very better. Yeah, mine's running perfect. Make sure you have other programs shut down. I will stream yard. Yeah, I should sometimes if you have multiple. If you have multiple things open, it'll it'll slow you up. Like if I have my zoom open, it will slow me up.
00:36:06
Speaker
Well, this is what I, I recently changed my, I was paying 80 bucks for stream art. So I knocked it down to half to the basic one. Now my stream artists like turn it, it turned shitty. Like, but they're like, you want to, you want to lower your plan? Screw you. You can't use ours. That's what happened to us. That's what happened to us basically. Cause cause they changed their plan. And then if you didn't want to pay that $80, you went back to what you were paying, but you get a whole lot less. Yeah. and yeah or some but I went to the $44 plan and now my stream art has been shitty ever since. so just ja stream, stream yard. Come on. I just want just enjoy i want i want to that guy real quick. Um, I, I get, I get that, uh, you, you got some, some feelings and they're strong. Uh, but tonight's not for that big guy. It is, it is for unifying under the relief of it all being over for at least a little bit. Uh, so well much as much as I can appreciate your dedication there, uh, tonight's not the night for that.
00:37:06
Speaker
Well, no, and and I get it, you know, you want your team, your side to win. It's, yeah it's kind of like, so I see, okay, right there. I don't, I, I try my best not to come to come to politics with any like sort of tribalistic team or party mentality. That's the problem. like As you said, it's like people attributed to a sport.
00:37:30
Speaker
and it's It's yeah, it's it's hard not to because we're almost almost like curtailed into that thought. Like we have to take a side. It's absolutely. And I think I think porn and politics.
00:37:43
Speaker
And I think part of that is part of the, of the exhaustion. It's like, it was like, right like the person I voted for really wasn't the person I ideally would want to vote for. But, you know, because of the situation, that's where I'm casting my vote. And in and that right there, you know, and this happens to a lot of voters, we kind of just left with, you know, kind of like,
00:38:07
Speaker
Which two who's gonna punch me in the faceless? Yeah, and the which was the lesser of two evils. Yeah, it's exactly yeah it best Basically at this point nowadays in politics. It is the lesser two evils because yeah and and you can make an argument either way and I don't fucking hear honestly, but at the other day, it's not It's not an easy job running the country or running a town or running a state or whatever the case may be. it's It's not easy. And I get it. It's not a job I would want. But I'm not going to fucking do it either. So it's like. Yeah. Yeah. Let's be honest. Somebody said. I call to run for president and be like, fuck you. I like my ears where they're at. Yeah.
00:38:58
Speaker
okay No, but it's like, it's the, as Blaze was saying, you know, it, like and I'm using as example, when Bernie was running and and Biden was still in it, and then Bernie gets kicked off the ticket and you're like, but I was a Bernie guy. Shit, I gotta go to Biden because he's on our team. And it's like, yeah. but
00:39:24
Speaker
So yeah I get it it. You get pigeonholed with your team, side, whatever you want to put it. Yeah, yeah it's yeah it's this it's the way the system is set up and it's is it it's unfortunate. Is it me or was it always like this?
00:39:43
Speaker
where it was it's our side kind of thing. Yeah. And ever since, ever since the federalist, ever since the federalist in the eighties, we talked about it one day in school. Our founding fathers, our founding fathers were split on a lot of things. They had the federalists and the anti-federalists and they had the wigs. And I mean, this, this, this division in politics has always been there. At times it's, it's lukewarm. Like it's just like,
00:40:15
Speaker
what's that word? Just like basic differences and then sometimes it's extreme and polarizing and it's it's it's gone up and down through our uh your history of our country. You think it's getting worse because of social media and everybody of them who share. I don't I don't think it's. It's hard for people to lie. Let me tell you. I I think well I don't think it's just social media per se but the internet in itself in the way we communicate now. I mean it's so much faster and so much information comes at us and You know, it's, it's not like, it's not like, um, you know, generations ago, like during your brought up Ray and it's not like during the eighties. Yeah. You still had your.
00:40:52
Speaker
your propaganda and your political ads and all that on TV, but you only saw it when you turn it on the TV. Now it's like you pick up your phone, your laptop, you just get notifications. Hey, new YouTube video from this political pundit. This person said this, this politician made this promise. This bill is being debated on boom, boom, boom, boom. And depending again on the algorithm, it's like, what are you getting fed?
00:41:18
Speaker
Exactly yeah and and my ah today's ze today's episode is brought to you by ground news No,
00:41:29
Speaker
but I think that's the biggest problem and it's not I don't I get it it it could technically If it was done, right it could be technically way more informative But there's so much bashing on both sides Then it just becomes annoying as shit Yeah, I honestly, I'm to the point where.
00:41:51
Speaker
And I don't want to say this, because I don't want to discourage anybody from participating in conversations. I think everybody should. I just think some people need to have a little bit more self introspection on how they're having these conversations and what their goal is. Is their goal to have a productive conversation or is it to quote unquote, get a got to to to own your interlocutor or something like that? Yeah. I mean, how honest are you coming at it? and I find in this isn't this isn't exclusive to any one partisan party. I mean, this is it everybody from every walk of political life, the ones that will have a conversations and the ones that want to go into an insult match. so well And I think knowing, yeah.
00:42:41
Speaker
And I think you like me as somebody that will go online and do political baits and has been in screaming matches, I don't prefer it. And there's times where it's like my my mood is like, i amm I'm not gonna engage this way and I'll just, oh for my own personal mental health, I'll hit the leave button. 100%, because so nobody wants to be screamed at and I get it, but if, like for instance, I know if I wanna have a political debate or I have i have a political question,
00:43:10
Speaker
I'm calling you. I'm not going to call. Don't don't call me. Don't do not call Blaze for political advice. I will send you a link to someone better. I'm not saying for advice. I'm not saying for advice, but I can I can count on you to give me your side of it. For instance, if I call somebody that is a, you know, fright or die, they're going to give me their version that is Yeah, so far out of the realm or or or vice versa, you know, if they're super hard left, they're going to give me what the left wants me to hear where you can look at. e's this I just think the noise is with my mouth. It's good for the ears. Wait, what are you saying? And are you are you OK? Untrackable? You want to hear and make noise? He was making. He's making a joke. I think some of that I said. Yeah, I'm making noise. But
00:44:10
Speaker
and But yeah, i I agree. I'm so over the the whole. However, I did for for the first day, I did enjoy the videos of people losing it on who lost and who won. But after that, I was over it. I got a question for Shaka or Connor. You guys follow sports, right? To an extent.
00:44:34
Speaker
OK, do you get excited like when a big game is coming up or yeah seasons about to start or something like that? Yeah, I see. I watch a lot of m MMA boxing like that, and I get excited for big fights by the end of the season. Are you exhausted and in any sort of way? Sometimes you are exhausted with a football. I know that that's why I didn't ask you this question. Yeah, I know that when it comes to like baseball, I can't start watching baseball until like midway through the season because it's one hundred and sixty two game season.
00:45:04
Speaker
i guess It's ridiculous. And then hockey is similar. it like a time It's like a 90-some game season for hockey, too. I love hockey. It's my favorite sport in the world. But I can't watch that. Ninety-two fucking games. And the reason why ask and reason why I ask is even though I'm looking forward to the next four years, not in a not in the way that ah that From a political historical standpoint, this shit's fucking interesting. And no, like before the election to me, it didn't matter who was going to win. This period and in our country is is a pivotal historical point, just like it was in the 60s and the 70s, just like like it was in the early 1800s and stuff. So I think there's I think I think we're actually witnessing sort of like a political realignment of of the country.
00:46:02
Speaker
sort of like i agree i agree like we've been through before. so And that's why i'm I'm excited about it, but it does come with with its exhaustion because it's a lot of information to keep up with. yeah yeah I think that that's a ah very universally felt feeling.
00:46:22
Speaker
is this is all this is all super important. This is all really big. I think that this this election is going to make a difference. You know, either my candidate or this person's candidate, whatever it is, I think that this is going to be a huge tell as to what the next X amount of years is going to bring, which is important. But there's so much information and there's so much disinformation. There are so many lies being spewed. There's so much hate from your neighbors. Yeah, that it's hard to be as excited as maybe you could be if as it if it wasn't as volatile as it is. And so it brings everybody to that point of exhaustion and just being tired, done with it. Speaking of exhaustion, I have Biden bars when it comes to my Wi-Fi, just so you guys know. All right. What the fuck is a Biden bar? got I learned that on TikTok. I learned that on TikTok. When when your internet like bars are low,
00:47:18
Speaker
is buying bars. I thought that was funny. I have Trump bars, which are all the way up here. And then I have Biden bars that are all the way down here. They both fall asleep.
00:47:38
Speaker

Yeah, **** you guys. With bad news. With bad news. As a dessert. Yeah, I was always whenever I was doing things on an Air Force base. and right i And I got to be on the other side of the line, you know what I mean? And I would go through, I would get my food and I'd go scan my meal card and and go eat. And I'd be like, ah you know I'd go ask for permission if it was okay if I could get some more. And they looked at me like I was crazy and like, bro, you can get anything you want.
00:49:54
Speaker
like you're a **** adult. What? Who cares? Yeah, that's an Air Force dude. Back wheel. Come on. **** it up. You do that. You do that in the army and people **** throw a fit. What are you doing, fat **** Yeah. and you run away If people were like, hey, could I get just like a little bit more, you know, not maybe not necessarily your high dollar like your meats or something like that but could like I get an extra scoop of those green beans or something and you tell them you eat what's on your plate before you ask for more motherfucker. Now, go. Alright, I'll be back in five minutes. That Korea was awesome. They had just a **** rice cooker at the end of the the end of the **** thing and you just grabbed as much **** rice as you wanted. I grabbed rice and I **** piled the soy sauce on blood pressures for the week. I went and sat down. Yeah. And if I didn't have that wasn't enough food i' just grab more fucking rice
00:50:54
Speaker
My dad wouldn't he? My dad, he was telling me, you know, he was there. He was in Korea during the Korea war. The dude won't eat rice anymore. He's like, I don't have enough rice to last me a fucking lifetime. Got it. After I got back from Korea, I called him and I was like, got it. You want some soju? You want to fuck off?
00:51:16
Speaker
I could eat rice every day, but kimchi can straight suck a dick. Oh, Kim, she's delicious. Fuck you. I love that shit. OK. Damn. I should like. like to make a photo of it. Yeah, what's going on, guys? Happy Veteran's Day. Fuck you, Brian.
00:51:37
Speaker
But, uh, I mean, like somewhere. Hey, man, I'm love a week. I am on my i ah um yeah. Under the foundation. No, I'm on your You're you're off rotation with me.
00:51:51
Speaker
nice yeah i'll go back next week nice hope put i saw you up on on uh with tony the other day so i literally walking my pants blow over right now yeah man texas win finally there was a rough one but texas won who names themselves the texans Sorry, man. I didn't even want to text us. Everything's got Texas in the name somewhere. no No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. This is what this is what was dumb to me because everyone's like, oh, you know, keep the tradition. I said, OK, if you want to keep the tradition of the Oilers, then we go with Roughnecks. That's pretty much another. That's another nickname for Oilers.
00:52:39
Speaker
So then, so then the when they said the Dallas, I mean, when they said like the Houston Texans, I'm like, the Texans name has already been used. It was Dallas Texans before they later became the Kansas City Chiefs. So not many people know that. When when Kansas City Chiefs does their little throwback and they see the red helmet with the orange outline of Texas, the Kansas City Chiefs was formerly known as the Dallas Texans back in the old AFC days.
00:53:08
Speaker
or American American football conference days. Do you have so violent cabinet on all these stats? Well, I mean, it's just can't I can't keep track of like more than just three things on the phone. Jeff, you know how some people are like World War Two nerds and and no, I get it. I get it. Yeah, it's the it's the same thing. But with football and I agree, it's weird because football doesn't matter. But like, you know,
00:53:35
Speaker
Yeah. So I mean, like that I was all about like, Oh, you know, I want to, because when they were trying to figure out the name, everybody submitted it through email, mail, whatever of what, what you think the team name should be. And my dad saw that I wrote gladiators and he's like, gladiators. He's like, what's that? He's like, what does that have to do with, he's like, what does that have to do with Houston? I said, what does Titans have to do with Tennessee?
00:54:01
Speaker
She's so smart Spartans was I mean like like ah like at the time that was like what 2002 so I was like 21 when 21 when they're coming up with the name and I'm like gladiators I was like that sounds cool You know, that just makes me American gladiators. So they'd all be. And then, and then, and then I thought, and then ah then I also thought about like renegades, like renegades, because like on Madden, on the Madden 2000, I created a football team called like game Southwest because I couldn't use Houston, but they were based out of San Antonio. So I was like, yes southwest renegade yeah, I like my team name on fantasy football. I think it's pretty fucking perfect. Evansville Dementors. What is this?
00:54:47
Speaker
seven untils a v Yeah. That's OK. Mine's going to name the Dusty Sparks. Yeah. like figure just so good just so that you Just so that you know that if we win, it's by accident. We don't know how it happened either. That's right, Brian. We're playing each other this week. Yeah. Good game, sir. I haven't even seen. Clean, sweet. Yeah, what are you going to do? I literally do the auto set.
00:55:16
Speaker
I at least broke a hundred. That's all I matter. That's all I care about at this point. I literally and look at it on Wednesday and then Monday I go, did I win? No. Okay. What are you going to do? I'm forced to play. As co-founder of the network, I was told I have to play, so. Yeah, but I mean, but I remember like how last year or like earlier this year, you're like, yeah, the only thing that matters to me, I beat Brian. Oh, I will.
00:55:44
Speaker
Yeah. So then, so then when I took that photo, my first matchup on the first one, I was like, good game. And you're like, ah, what do you want? You know, and then I'm like, okay, now boom, clean sweep. Yeah. But once again, you beating me, not a big shocker. When I beat you, it's like, it is a shocker. It's like, Oh, believe me. Yeah. Yeah. Like when, like when I projected a win and all of a sudden I get select, I'm like, how the fuck that happened? Cause I love it. Awesome. If you pay attention.
00:56:12
Speaker
this took back stuff and Well, we're going to, we're going to, we're going to go to break real quick and then we're going to come back and we'll roll right back into a little bit of what we were talking about. And then, uh, maybe we'll just bullshit for a little bit, but we'll we'll be, we will put a little bit of words are hard. We will be right back. This is 6AM life is beautiful.
01:00:40
Speaker
That was a good song. Oh my God, that was such a good song. What a great, beautiful song to take a break to just kind of clear our minds. ah For those of ah you who weren't paying attention to our lovely podcast, this is the Men for Men podcast.
01:00:58
Speaker
what What? What were you saying? Continue. I was reading. I was reading. God, why are you yelling so fucking loud? What time is the Tyson Paul fight on Friday? Five. I think it starts at five. Five p.m. PST. Finally. i believe I will not watch. So seven, seven p.m. Eastern. Seven p.m. my time. Central. Central. Nine o'clock here. Sixteen.
01:01:25
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, yeah, I mean, I mean, but the thing about it is, it's like, Mayweather, because everybody wants to go after, after Mayweather, but I didn't want know time to do drugs. Curious because of Friday show. I forgot there was that fight Friday at the same time. No, we could, anyway, and that would actually force us to watch some sports. Probably be problematic. Anyway, problems.
01:01:54
Speaker
Yeah, anyway, welcome back to the men caring for men podcast where tonight we're, we're caring for everybody. We're talking about what everybody is thinking, which is I'm fucking done with this shit. I'm so glad it's over. So glad it's done. Let's, let's step away and forget about politics for a little bit. Let's stop hating each other and just.
01:02:17
Speaker
Everybody loves everybody, man. ELE. We all just get along. Exactly. So that's what we're doing here tonight. And on top of that, it's Veterans Day. We got myself, Jeff Blaze in the house and coming in on the guest lineup. We got the barbecue guru, also known as Brian. Untrackable, the happy man himself.
01:02:39
Speaker
and Chaka, the living testicle ladies and gentlemen. ah Welcome to the show. I got big beans and they click clack. You got what? I got beans and they click clack.
01:02:59
Speaker
I've been listening to that Peter and Bos group, dude. I fucking learned about them the other day on TikTok and I've been fucking bumping them. They're like in their sixty late 60s, 70s, and they're fucking gangster rappers. in the u Oh, I know exactly what you're talking about. yeah but Not us. i absolutely no say check out I need to check it out.
01:03:26
Speaker
I saw you guys mention that on Snapchat, and I was like, I don't know who that is, but I need to check that out. I was actually watching that earlier also. I found them on Spotify, and they're becoming part of my playlist, my rotation. Yeah.
01:03:44
Speaker
I'm starting to steer us. Steer us, Connor. Steer us when we Should we continue with the conversation about how much we hate politics right now? Because even though we enjoy politics, we're kind of over it. Or should we talk about, like, blaze? Or actually, fuck it. Untrackable. Happy, happy, happy. Talk to me, son. What were some of your favorite times?
01:04:11
Speaker
in the Army because it is Veterans Day. Let's let's just do it. Let's let's be those guys. Let's be those guys. Yeah. What do you miss? Well, for everybody, what do you miss about the military?
01:04:25
Speaker
um he been I was the guy. No one cares, Brian. free It's not your day anymore. That's OK. Brian will be deported in like six months. Don't worry about it. Hey.
01:04:43
Speaker
hard in real happy jeff Go Jeff's going to be laughing when it really does happen. That's all right. I'm all that drill baby drill crowd, dude. Hey, I get it, but you can live next door to me when you get deported. Don't worry about it. I guess in ah in a broad answer, I would say I missed that, um, that undeniable family feeling. You know what I mean?
01:05:11
Speaker
um It doesn't matter what your job is, it doesn't matter how much trouble you got in, none of you are going anywhere. Like you have to fuck up on such an extreme to to like be sent away. And yeah, you know, you get your your orders and people move around, but it's so interesting when those orders kind of put you back together again. And if it is somebody that's in the same job,
01:05:40
Speaker
it's It's highly likely that if you spend, or if you move, uh, several times, you, it's highly likely that you're going to meet people that you knew before someplace else, and you will both have moved on or, or gotten in trouble because like, I mean, imagine you meet somebody early on and you're both privates and then you get your first duty and.
01:06:08
Speaker
okay then then you move let's say three times and next thing you know you know maybe they're a sergeant and maybe you have been put down twice you know what i'm saying this fucking reminds me of a funny story i my first duty station my second shop i had this the staff sergeant as a supervisor and i was i was I was not a very- That's E5 in the Air Force, just saying. Yeah, i was I wasn't a very subordinate troop. But anyway, fucking years later down the road, I'm at a whole different duty station, and this guy is in the the National Guard. And we just happened to be keeping some of their munitions in our bomb dump, and he comes out to sign his shit out. And I'm like, oh shit, surgeon nayhy Sergeant Sergeant Naylor looks right at me. He's like, man, I'm surprised you're still in.
01:07:00
Speaker
ah it's like me too meet
01:07:05
Speaker
I was surprised every morning. I'm still here. I had a, I had a Master Sergeant who was our training, our training NCO while I was in the Air Force. So E7, yeah, E7 was Master Sergeant in the Air Force.
01:07:22
Speaker
um And she was super nice. but when i When I left the Air Force to join the Army because I'm a fucking weirdo, she was like, you just don't, you don't seem like that type of guy. You know, we were really close. She was, she was like the mom of the fucking shop. There's, there's always that, that person there. And she was that, that lady. And she was awesome. Super great. And I got to my, my first student stage. Went to Korea. What's up, Michael?
01:07:48
Speaker
went to Korea and halfway through Korea, she's, she messaged me. She's like, Hey, how's everything going? You know, I saw that you're, you're overseas right now. And I was like, I fucking love it. I love it. Fuck all you guys. I love this shit. yeah And she was like, that's awesome. Like she was genuinely happy for me. She called me a couple of times and we talked, but it was, it's, it's cool to hear from people that like, damn, no way you don't hate yourself and you don't fucking hate your life.
01:08:15
Speaker
They're proud of you. Like, externally, no, I'm perfect. I haven't blown into my cynicism yet. That's right. That's right. Gentlemen, what was your longest deployment in any any location? Because mine was no more than three months and ah in that space. Just shy nine. Mine was six. Just shy nine. I've never done more than three months. I was always moved.
01:08:45
Speaker
i didn't have six gospel yeah I was in Korea for a little ah a little over eight months in total, but I got that. I left. less than a week after we found out that my wife was pregnant with my daughter and she went a little late for term and uh I got back three two or three days after she gave birth to my daughter so it was it was just just shy of nine months but that was that was my longest hell I was only in afghanistan for three or four months it wasn't that long I was at three yeah that was uh
01:09:22
Speaker
I was never, um, like combat deployed, but that Korea trip, uh, the first time was two years. And then the second time was one. Oh, so that that first time you were there as a, as permanent party. Oh yeah. I was a area one camp Casey. Yeah. Okay. We were at camp Casey too. And we also, uh, we, we ran around to camp Carol and Foz Carol and we went back and forth between those two. And then we went out to a few other places.
01:09:54
Speaker
You know, it's always cool to hear about people that have like jobs that matter because I'm not saying the cooks don't matter, but you do, you, you go to the kitchen every single day. It's not like, Oh, Hey, we need you over here. This, you know, we we need you to link up with these guys and do this out of the other. It's like, Hey, no, we need you in the kitchen at four o'clock in the morning because breakfast must be on top.
01:10:19
Speaker
yeah actually little long Building bonds on an empty stomach is not fun. um yeah You speak to any infantryman that got just got back from two weeks in the fucking field and ask them how necessary cokes are. They're real. Amen to that. Amen to that. If I never see another MRE, I'll be a happy man. Right?

Speaker
it wasn't it wasn't a ah military finance department it was like the the greater, you know, uh, reimbursement department. And, uh, Oh, I was waiting on some money and I did everything I was told to do. And ah ultimately the unit fucked up and gave me the wrong phone number to to do the claim. So when I called the checkup, they kept putting me to the right department, but I had filed, you know, however it went down.
01:11:38
Speaker
And I did everything short of murder somebody over the phone. Like I punched my steering wheel to my knuckles bled while I was on the phone. And I was like, if I don't get this money, I can't go home. Like I'm sitting here waiting on this shit. right It took, it took like five months where some people were getting it in their next paychecks. And I lost my shit. When I got that money, I was like, okay, I'm showing y'all my deuces. I'm out of here.
01:12:08
Speaker

01:12:18
Speaker
ah You know, happy conversation with finance ah more than a handful of times. Finance always cracked me up because, you know, you're, you're dealing with people that are trained to kill you, but you're going to fuck with their money. Okay. You never made sense to me there.
01:12:37
Speaker
They're trying to defend that money. I i don't know. joking yeah since it i fucking up the travel watching I fucked up a travel voucher one time and I got more money that than I was supposed to. And when the government took their money back, I ended up with a goose egg paycheck. They didn't take they didn't take it back incrementally. They took it all back at once. So I had like no money one month. I'm like, what the fuck? what what is the tre I single living in the dorm. So I mean, I wasn't like starving. You aren't struggling. What's a travel voucher? I i didn't go to the military. It's a travel voucher like whenever you leave. So when you don't want a TDY or deployment or something, when you get back, you fail out of travel voucher. Like how how you drove to the airport. and So you drove to the airport, that gets reimbursed.
01:13:26
Speaker
some of the food when you travel gets reimbursed and you save receipts, it's it's changed over time. But basically, you would save up your expenses and you'd get reimbursed. If any money came out of your pocket, yeah. basically right yeah If you're not eating on base, yeah. yeah which that i I think I've only filled out like three, because I was literally always told me, go get on this boat, go get on this plane, go get on. All right.
01:13:54
Speaker
I feel I'll travel vouchers when I go to the VA up in New Albany. Like when I check into my vet, my VA appointment, like I go online and fill out a quick one and I get 30 bucks just for gas for driving there and back. It's like two hour drive. I saw that at the at the VA down here. Cause I used to live in Vincent, which is about an hour and a half north of where I am now. And I was like, I have to drive to Evansville for like three out of the five appointments that I have a week.
01:14:23
Speaker
I'm like, God damn. And I didn't know ah they nobody told me, hey, you can get reimbursed for this until after I had moved. And they're like, oh just sit until I'm like, you can blow my you can blow me. Yeah, I didn't notice it till I had it. I was I was sitting there and I did an online check in when I showed up early one morning and then I get a message back saying, you can go ahead and fill out your travel voucher right now or some shit like that. I'm like, what? when How long they expire? um I don't know. I'm not sure.
01:14:54
Speaker
I'm not, I'm not going to go back to your receipts. They're not going to give you any fucking. Yeah, you, you have to actually have physical receipts. Well, the thing with the VA one, it's only the drive. So I don't need a receipt. They just calculate the miles because they know where I live and they know where my appointments at. So.
01:15:14
Speaker
It's just a basic travel voucher. Hell, I could have taken Uber and reimbursed that. va a Well, VA works with Uber now. So if you're a vet and you're having a problem getting to an appointment or from an appointment, call your VA information line. And I know here in Louisville, Kentucky, they they they can pay an Uber to get you to or from an appointment at the VA hospital. that's pretty oh One of these days, I'm just going to stop by Blaze's house.
01:15:45
Speaker
Why? Unannounced. On a travel voucher?
01:15:55
Speaker
I'm going to wait till the next night. God, dude, I'm having to choose this involved. I've been in trouble for so long. It's been like a month. We're talking about going to doctors. We're going to doctors since I was in the military.
01:16:14
Speaker
i don't go to this outdoor i got to do I have to go to the doctors. I got you. You're slowly falling apart. It's not slow anymore. No. thanks There's nothing fucking it slow about it. you're like You're like the best looking zombie on the planet. I'm just saying. What it is is my spine just works like the Legos from like the Lego the lego ah video games.
01:16:43
Speaker
We're like, if you locate it wrong, it falls apart. It goes't that sound like that makes that sound when they all fall apart. Those are the Legos you buy in Mexico. What are you talking about? Hey, Legos here. That's it.
01:17:00
Speaker
tunnelno it's it's crazy how legos just exploded on the scene because now like one of the bigger models that we have down here we have our own lego store oh they've been out for decades yeah they've been out for decades they don't have one here thank god because my kids would spend more money in there it's better than a disney store that's for damn sure you can go and build shit legos are crazy expensive right now Yeah, I mean yeah, i but I walked in there and then I saw like they had like the Sith infiltrator then they had like the Death Star the Millennium Falcon and I'm like I don't know if that's a Sith infiltrator that's all I want but then I saw the price of like two that's weather saids that's i go that's why that's That's why there's so much if you look at Legos back in the day when they were their own little
01:17:49
Speaker
little construction designs and then see how they start partnering up with these franchises. And then you're paying for that Star Wars, that Marvel. Yeah. Yeah. So you buy this. yeah inside like I'll buy it for my kids and then they'll leave them on the floor. You ever, I don't know if you guys have ever stepped on a whole pile of layers. It's not the worst experiences that a parent as a parent.
01:18:19
Speaker
After buying the amount of Legos I buy, if I sweep my floor, I sweep my floor this morning. If I sweep it again right now, I will find another Lego. I'm the only one home. How is that possible? I don't know, but there's Legos everywhere. So you're sleepwalking? Yeah, I play Legos. Yeah, sleep Lego can avoid that. You can avoid that by making sure that your kids keep their Legos in their room.
01:18:49
Speaker
and then as you're dealing with then you're singing everything is awesome no i'm not everything's expensive make sure you leave the legos in their room if you ever feel like playing legos just fucking play minecraft it's the adult version of legos wait minecraft is the adult version it's just a different version of the kid version i mean
01:19:15
Speaker
It's a different version, but you don't have to clean up afterwards. I tell you, Connor, I've got three children. Once you get my age, you don't go on games like that. yeah It's weird. aredo is Jeff, um because you i't own I don't go on that show go online and talk to kids like a fucking no, no, no, no, no, no.

Oh, oh, no. like I was kids I was born after kids I was born after fucking 12 A.D.
01:20:00
Speaker
My goodness, I'm so young. I'm hanging out i nursing so home every time I hop on this podcast. I swear to you, dude, I'm looking I'm looking on the Lego website for the Lego Titanic.
01:20:16
Speaker
yeah so I want it. See, when you get to my age, you don't play with Legos anymore. You do minecraft. Oh, no. Fuck you. I'll still play with Legos. Don't get me wrong. I mean, it's $600. I still play Hot Wheels. How much? You say a million dollars? No, $680 for the Lego Titanic.
01:20:35
Speaker
i Could have sworn he said something million. I was like what? that no that would be crazy it' it's It's like this I think that that first the newest version of the Titanic is the third most Lego pieces you can buy in a single set then we have right now the ial tower has more Yeah Java cell bars for 500 Are you guys feeling like Lego well buta citizen bri just cu That's like Lego knockoffs, isn't it? is It is, but their quality and they got some really cool ones.
01:21:14
Speaker
i I think I have, my kids have a setter or two of those, I think. what right sounds like yeah That sounds like the communist version of Lego. Yes, exactly what it is. I got one. What's the brand, MegaBlox has the halos. MegaBlox, fuck off. Agree. mike My oldest had MegaBlox and they got everywhere. And you think that the regular fucking Legos hurt to stand on?
01:21:43
Speaker
Oh my god. Megamooks are worse because they're cheaper so they have more jagged edges. They have more jagged... Dude, I have had to put Band-Aids on my feet because of Megablons. I've never had that problem with Fucking Mega.
01:21:55
Speaker
I wear shoes. The only time we've had, what what are they called, megablocks in our house, is they were gifted to one of my kids. It's like, ugh. But that's the thing. I just can't go without shoes. It drives me nuts. I hate wearing a barefoot. Jeff with his fancy shoes. Yeah. you got You got house shoes? Look at me. I've got enough money for shoes. I wake up in the morning, I put on a pair of shoes, and I don't take them off until I go to bed.
01:22:19
Speaker
All this you wear them out and back into the house. Oh, yeah shoes that's i like wearing my dogs they leave That's what nights is for I really don't put shoes on like build a cool air what kind of deodorizer you invest in them to keep them bad boys clean i actually i buy a certain period of time I don't wear shoes. Yeah, but I don't tie my shoes either. I leave like for instance I don't even want to make it better. Do you wear socks? Yeah. OK, so you you're still not getting the airflow you need. And if you don't wear socks, then you're nasty. right well I tried that once. I'm going to the nose, no socks and shoes. You'll ruin a pair of shoes in like three weeks.
01:23:11
Speaker
You're going out and ruining a place. I'm going to buy me a pair of Jesus eggs. Is that the Citizen Break place? Yeah, that's the Citizen Break place. It's one of the stoners. It's got like a pot leaf on it. I got a bong and lighter ones. Those are a lot bigger than the Lego ones, I think. No, they're regular Lego figurines. Oh, really? They bark and Jeff.
01:23:32
Speaker
Those dogs are barking all at once. My thing is, like if I want to walk outside, I don't have to go find my shoes and put them on. I just go out the door. Or you leave your socks near your shoes so that it takes you five seconds to get your fucking shoes on. Man, I wear socks and crocs, man. I got socks and crocs. Things getting real. and Go anywhere so it's almost pointless.
01:24:01
Speaker
Exactly. So you just wear shoes because you're weird. Maybe it's a midget thing. I can't. I literally cannot go without shoes on. Driving nuts. I can't do anything. Or flip flops. Yeah, I got crocs, man. Oh, no. I won't wear crocs. I won't wear a croc. I won't do it. How do you put a croc on the bottom of a, it's like, isn't it round at the bottom? Do you have feet? Do I have feet?
01:24:31
Speaker
I thought. d track answer right damn iing Oh, yeah. i have fiends cross You have. know I knew he was going to try to bring you around a testicle. these Like, don't you have your feet? Yes, I do. Yeah, I won't wear Crocs. My my brother-in-law wears Crocs all day, every day, nonstop. And I'm just like. Crocs, you know, I can't do it.
01:25:01
Speaker
I'm not, yeah I'm not chef Fatali. Oh my gosh. Mario Fatali was famous until I had that incident. Okay, Croxtor No Crocs is almost as fucking crazy as pineapple on pizza. that Those debates get real out of here. No, I have something to say. I have something to say.
01:25:28
Speaker
No, I have something to say about this and I have a question. I'm bringing Brian back up for it. Do you really hate pineapple on pizza or is it just socially unacceptable to like pineapple on I love the question. I love it. i love about I have no problem with it. But but also, but also zero like but also so people are like, oh, you're crazy. So what about the thing with cracks though? so Hang on though. Hang on though. To be fair, people who work cros all the time are crazy. To be fair, you do have like, you, like but when it comes to pizza, you have like the New York style pizza, Philly style pizza, pineapple on pizza. That's like a Hawaiian style pizza. No. So you got to be respectful of that aspect.
01:26:16
Speaker
So you're saying, do you live in Hawaii or do you live in fucking Texas? I met the Hawaiian, I love Hawaiian. When you go to the pizza restaurant, does it say Hawaiian pizza restaurant or does it say Italian pizza restaurant? When I go to CC's pizza, I was like, Canadian bacon with pineapple, please. So why is it Hawaiian if it's Canadian bacon?
01:26:42
Speaker
which's just weird page he need that all the real question we need the salties and sweet plus you know they they have the pig rose out there so does it really no matter what or is that what's for dinner yeah I tell my kids this, my worm is huge in Hawaii. Well, I think it depends on what type of pizza too, because I can't put pineapples on a Chicago deep dish. I'll put it on like that. I've never even thought about it. Never even thought about it. I mean like, what's better on a thin crust? Every now and then I'll add, I'll make like a classic old fashioned hamburger, but then I'll add a pineapple to it.
01:27:20
Speaker
Hey, I'm not mad at it. Believe it or not, so there's a spicy with it though, right? No, no, you don't just do pineapple on a burger with nothing like you stop to eat you put the meat and everything on it. That doesn't, that doesn't, I like teriyaki sauce on it.
Pizza topping debates
01:27:42
Speaker
there's There's a restaurant here. No, there's a restaurant here. There are po pudding bananas there's people putting on their pizza and you guys are still talking about. They should be shot. Those those people are nuts. I agree. that's the whole mean i get what first so We need to call Trump.
01:28:01
Speaker
Yeah, and terrible the pizza yeah but never to support all the pinapps and they put pineapple on their send back to the country first the first time i heard it i was like that was not buy an apple then i tried one and i love that a just all the but i'm just saying i don't I don't prefer ah the pineapple on the pizza, but they can be clear if they want to.
01:28:28
Speaker
yeah Whoa. It's a thing. happy It's a cultural thing. It's game out swinging. It's only games in the car. It's only games in the car. It's So I got my pizza place here and I put peanut butter on their pizza.
01:28:49
Speaker
again it just yeah we forward wait wait wait yeah yeah you know butter upzz i had yeah my fucking way called happened johnson incredible pizza here in california it's it's actually the oh i forgot you live in it corn you were all it peanut butter and then it didn't regular me of a sauce and and and the cheese and the pepperoni and it actually takes ocean you risk move for california buddy Again, this is one of the a big like, they like their left they're left sided people and I'm cool with that. But even Disney knows that California fucked up by putting broccoli on pizza. They make fun of it in Inside Out One. It's true. to talent drive funny I don't think i't I've ever had a pizza. who you are no broccoli on anything You shouldn't put bananas or peanut butter on a fucking pizza either.
01:29:40
Speaker
Peanut butter? I thought it was decent. Bananas I've never heard of, never thought of. That's something over in in Norway or Switzerland or somewhere is where they do that. The bananas on the pizza. They don't even count. I have a question much attractive to have a question have a question for everybody. Have you ever tried goals gold? Eating it? No.
01:30:01
Speaker

It's good. i i don't want to elvis i i know my table so no's i was trying to i want to die' trying to follow it I forgot the other ingredient. It's bacon. I want to diet it if you eat it the milks are eat it on the toilet before you die. I'm just I don't know, but it looks amazing. I'm asking for a friend. So, you know, you want to eat it on the toilet just in case some shit goes down, literally. I'll just die on that. That's a high risk situation. Why would you not eat it on the toilet? for example I mean, I mean, there's what there's one. Yeah, Elvis died on that. Oh, my God. that is disgust I know. he He made the right call.
01:31:08
Speaker
Peanut butter, bacon, and and thank you will ask a decision stuff with cheese and bacon. Look up. Look up the Luther. Thank you, hello Luther. The Luther. That sounds more threatening. That's because Lazy's a G, and apparently Chaka's not. I'm just telling you, I think Chaka is like the reverse of she's got a great personality. Chaka's an attractive dude, but he has a good personality. I'm not mad at this at all. I do. I do have a really good personality. You've seen Chaka. I know it's fake, but it's actually true.

Let's be honest. it you know what then carry iing arena either way when it comes to When it comes to mental health, I think Chaka's got it right, of having pocket snacks. Look, if bacon adds happiness to your life, it indulges sometimes. indulge sometimes Grilling barbecue. Seven days a week isn't sometimes though. That's all the time. Maybe we should cut that down to maybe five days, four days. I mean, like, like, like as stressful as Glick gets. You can pack more days in the week just so you can eat more bacon. I support it, God damn it. Eight days. MK, are you married? Do you have a good life? Let's have 14 day weeks. I mean, as stressful as Glick gets, the moment I send him a barbecue picture, he gets bacon weeks. What was I mad about?

01:55:51
Speaker
the esprit de corps, the camaraderie, the friendship, the keep meeting people that you don't know because you will find that you have things in common. And, um, and this is one of those places where you, you welcome that. And to be able to come here, regardless, if you ask a specific question and that's what the whole show is about, or it just turns into a good time.

Speaker
A little mental health for you. Good job. That's all. like You kept us on track tonight. What would we do without you? Blaze? Probably better so. Politics is stupid, but it's important, but it's okay to take a break from them and kind of remember where your foundation is. um We have friends and family that don't particularly agree, but again, they're still your friends and family. So that's I think is more important at the end of the day. Just remember that.
01:59:43
Speaker
I don't agree. Agreed. fuck I agree 100%. I like it. It's agree to disagree, then. I don't say that often. That is not something I say often. Ever. No. Even when I sit in the middle on his but on his show, he wants to disagree, too. But ladies and gentlemen, it's been ah it's been a good, interesting night. I think it was a good first Monday for me to be here for the full night.
02:00:14
Speaker
I want to give a ah shout out to all the veterans out there, all the guys guys and gals who have served and sacrificed for this country and for the betterment of this country, or at least what they thought at the time was doing that. um Truthfully, it takes a lot to do that. It takes a lot of gumption. It takes a lot of stones. And it takes a lot away from a life that you maybe could have had if you would have stayed out. It makes you a little bit stupid, but I appreciate you anyway.
02:00:41
Speaker
um On top of that, politics was what the show was all about tonight. ah Let's not forget that we are all friends. We're neighbors. We all want the same thing. We just want it in different ways. Don't hate people because they fucking disagree with you. Quit being a douche. Just love everybody, love everybody. Four years from now, you will care a lot less than Donald Trump won if you didn't want him to win this time. So just remember, it's not the end of the world. It's just not your time.
