Speaker: Together, we remember them all.
Speaker: Okay, let's all shut up, please.
Speaker: Warning.
Speaker: The podcast you are about to hear is often based on true events and people.
Speaker: It chronicles the dialogue and actions of random, anonymous, obnoxious, self-entitled, unintelligent, self-centered idiots.
Speaker: Attention whores, ignoramuses, dolts, clods, nimrods, douches, weirdos, drama queens, overly sensitive crybabies, and people who think they are better, more important, and special than the rest of us.
Speaker: In one word, amateurs.
Speaker: Amateurs.
Speaker: It's Amateur Nation with Lou Santini.
Speaker: We call attention to and call out the amateurs.
Speaker: The people who are doing life wrong.
Speaker: The speed bumps of life.
Speaker: The people that are in your way every day.
Speaker: The unintelligent, obnoxious, attention-whoring, self-entitled drama queen victim types who chip away at the moments of your life due to no self-awareness, common sense, manners, or social skills, and are disturbing the flow of the pros.
Speaker: Hi, Mom.
Speaker: Oh, hey, Lou.
Speaker: Amateur Nation.
Speaker: It's not just a podcast.
Speaker: It's a movement.
Speaker: And this is episode 254.
Speaker: What are you, vaccinated?
Speaker: On today's episode, Sometimes in Life You Gotta Pick a Side, This Week in New World Order Crap, and This Week in Pronoun Stupidity.
Speaker: Then sharing is okay on a la carte.
Speaker: And just when you're despondent about Amateur Nation, here comes three things that are done right on Three Pro Things.
Speaker: As always, Pro Nation first.
Speaker: Shouts out to Kim Hill, Rosie, Marcella Ruiz, Rockin' Rides, Richard Leach One, Chris Hall, Wesley Covert, Christopher Walton, Lee Barron, Paul Roseberry, and Scott Kiggins on Instagram.
Speaker: And a special shout out to Dean Homan of Manassas, Virginia on Facebook.
Speaker: Your post of the week by TheAlphaDwarf on Instagram.
Speaker: Remember when your mom would say, if your friends jumped off a bridge, would you jump too?
Speaker: COVID showed who would jump.
Speaker: Real quick, regarding Jacoby Johnson.
Speaker: The amateur who went on a stabbing spree at Louisiana Tech committed a random act of violence, according to mainstream media.
Speaker: Yes, the black suspect who stabbed four white women went all random on campus.
Speaker: Because when you stab someone, you just never know where that blade will wind up.
Speaker: How many of you have been walking down the street and caught a stray blade?
Speaker: Oh, when will there be stricter anti-knife laws?
Speaker: Do you know why the shooters always go after schools and passive places like malls and music concerts?
Speaker: Because they know it'll be a while before they are met with resistance.
Speaker: There's no immediate threat.
Speaker: They know even with the fastest response, the police won't be there for a bit.
Speaker: These amateurs aren't standing up to or for anything.
Speaker: I'd like to see these amateurs try to shoot up a rough city neighborhood or a gun or great outdoors type show.
Speaker: Guns don't kill people.
Speaker: The government does.
Speaker: Here's what's happening in Amateur Nation.
Speaker: Now dig this.
Speaker: Step one.
Speaker: Topic number one.
Speaker: The Hollywood elite just can't decide if they're woke, commie, or closeted conservatives.
Speaker: From newsrollup.com, this headline, shame on you.
Speaker: Sasha Baron Cohen accuses TikTok of creating the biggest anti-Semitic movement since the Nazis.
Speaker: Here's the article.
Speaker: The Borat star lashed out during a virtual discussion with executives from the social media site, which has since been flooded by people even praising late Al-Qaeda mass murderer Osama bin Laden.
Speaker: He was joined by fellow celebs Deborah Messing and Amy Schumer, as well as more than a dozen Jewish content creators, according to a recording of the meeting obtained by the New York Times.
Speaker: The article says what is happening at TikTok is it is creating the biggest anti-Semitic movement since the Nazis, Cohen told execs at the site where he does not appear to have an account.
Speaker: He said, if you think back to October 7th, the reason why Hamas were able to behead young people and rape women was they were fed images when they were small kids that led them to hate.
Speaker: The British star told the TikTok execs they could simply flip a switch to fix anti-Semitism on the platform, which the meeting was told included people saying Hitler was right and I hope you end up like Anne Frank.
Speaker: Shame on you, he told the execs, led by TikTok's head of operations, Adam Presser, and global head of user operations, Seth Melnick, the Times report said.
Speaker: The virtual showdown came after many of the same group sent an open letter to TikTok decrying Jewish users being bombarded with such hate.
Speaker: Simply put, TikTok lacks critical safety features to protect Jewish content creators and the broader Jewish TikTok community, leaving us in digital and physical danger, said the letter also signed by Messing and Schumer.
Speaker: Sadly, rampant anti-Semitism is a common problem that TikTok has failed to address for far too long.
Speaker: He's not wrong.
Speaker: Tell me that if TikTok went on a rant spouting black hate or the now not-so-trendy Asian hate, all hell wouldn't break loose.
Speaker: Funny how they forget that Jews come in many colors, not just white.
Speaker: Funny how Amy Schumer and Deborah Messing were so anti-Trump, anti-conservative, anti-anything common sense, yet it's the Trump supporters, the Republicans, that are pro-Israel and truly anti-hate.
Speaker: Compare protests.
Speaker: Pro-Israel protests, peaceful.
Speaker: Pro-Hamas protests, violent.
Speaker: But now that that hate has come into their own backyards, directed at them and their families, and that it affects them and their heritage, and they're not screeching about their hatred for conservatives, they suddenly take the correct stand.
Speaker: The same way the people who supported BLM have come to see that that anti-Semitic hatred is funded by and falls under a bigger umbrella.
Speaker: The same way Democrat politicians who wanted to defund the police changed their tune when they got assaulted or the crime was literally in their neighborhoods.
Speaker: I get why they stand up against the anti-Semitism.
Speaker: Of course, they should.
Speaker: But now they need to wake the hell up and get on the right side for all causes, rights, and freedoms.
Speaker: Still waiting for the Jewish population in Hollywood to denounce Hollywood for not speaking up.
Speaker: Denounce the Democrat Party and liberals.
Speaker: I mean, come on.
Speaker: They're not that offended or mad.
Speaker: You can be open-minded.
Speaker: You can be tolerant.
Speaker: Sometimes you can sit back and just not get involved in fights that don't involve you or your neighborhood or your city, your state, your country.
Speaker: But sometimes in life, you must pick a side.
Speaker: And that side is the one that stands for morality, respecting a higher power somewhere, common sense, and accountability.
Speaker: You don't get a pass to let pro-nation do the heavy lifting.
Speaker: Remember when you were in high school and the teacher would say, alright, everybody get into groups of four and then choose a leader or a spokesperson for such and such group project or presentation?
Speaker: Remember how there was always at least one person in the group of four who would do zero work and this fuck up would always say something like, hey, I'll do whatever you guys decide, you're the smart ones, and he or she would sit there each day in class doing nothing or pretended to help whenever the teacher would walk by.
Speaker: The group was graded as a whole instead of individually, which was stupid of course, but the group was given one overall grade.
Speaker: And what did you high schoolers do back then, me included, carried that amateur so you wouldn't get the bad grade?
Speaker: Somehow the teacher thought we could pressure this numbskull into helping, when in reality, we other three pros had to use our time in actually completing the project and going for that A.
Speaker: That's what's happening now.
Speaker: The pros are doing all the work and the heavy lifting while the amateurs sit by and are either fine with America falling to communism or will sadly reap the rewards of pro-nation's efforts to preserve America's freedoms, privileges, and rights and say nothing, not even a fucking thank you.
Speaker: Call them out.
Speaker: Always.
Speaker: Daily.
Speaker: Loudly.
Speaker: Embarrass them into action or retreat.
Speaker: This is our country.
Speaker: You don't get the benefits without the work and sacrifice.
Speaker: Period.
Speaker: And now this.
Speaker: And now for step two.
Speaker: Topic number two.
Speaker: It's time for This Week in New World Order Crap.
Speaker: Special thanks to Mind of Resistance on Instagram for the heads up on these intrusions on our freedoms.
Speaker: Still need more proof that the untested gene experiment is a joke?
Speaker: The Communist Disease Center, the CDC, along with the New Mexico Department of Public Health, has started chair care.
Speaker: That is, enlisting local hairstylists as, quote, trusted messengers to promote flu vaccines and the untested gene experiment to their customers.
Speaker: Free myocarditis with every blowout.
Speaker: Makes sense to me.
Speaker: Of course, I also get my meal prep ideas from my local truck stop.
Speaker: Listen to this asshole speaking at the World Economic Forum talking about in the future who gets to travel and who doesn't.
Speaker: There's going to be people of means who are going to travel.
Speaker: And then there's going to be people maybe of lesser means who might actually be able to use an Oculus or some other kind of device to travel to the same place but from their own couch.
Speaker: So, to recap, the wealthy get to travel.
Speaker: The poor get to use a virtual reality headset.
Speaker: Or it is fully flushed out words, magically or some other device to travel from their own couch.
Speaker: That's way better than actually experiencing the sights, sounds, art, food, and culture in person.
Speaker: Those rich suckers have to actually go there.
Speaker: Okay!
Speaker: As Alert Pro Nick K on X perfectly stated, Honestly, we can all get behind this vision of the future, can't we?
Speaker: By all, I mean the 2,000 or so really, really wealthy people that believe they own the planet Earth.
Speaker: The World Health Organization, a.k.a.
Speaker: God, is working on instilling a pandemic treaty that will extend their powers.
Speaker: Here's a few fun highlights.
Speaker: Listen carefully.
Speaker: Here today, because we are all concerned by the World Health Organization's strong pressure to extend its powers, its structural, and its financial capacities with a permanent effect over the sovereignty of the country's
Speaker: and over the self-determination of the people.
Speaker: It was in the wake of the COVID-19 crisis that the WHO has initiated a reform process which will bring significant changes to all of us that will concern every human being and every of the 194 member states on this planet.
Speaker: This reform process was started in 2021 with two working streams, preparing two separate legal instruments
Speaker: Number one, a complete new treaty, the so-called new pandemic treaty.
Speaker: Number two, significant amendments to the already existing
Speaker: international health regulations.
Speaker: These two legal instruments, treaty and IHR, are about to be negotiated and finalized and they bring material changes.
Speaker: The contents of these drafts are on the table.
Speaker: They are available.
Speaker: They are available for everybody.
Speaker: And already in eight months time from now,
Speaker: In May 2024, the 194 member states of the WHO will have their final vote on both of these international agreements.
Speaker: This process takes place behind closed doors and at a tremendous speed.
Speaker: It is not reported nor discussed in our newspapers, in our national parliaments, in universities.
Speaker: All right, we waste him.
Speaker: No offense.
Speaker: Hard to believe New York's tourist theme song was I Love New York decades ago.
Speaker: Well, you better love it and say so because you can say goodbye to the First Amendment.
Speaker: That's the free speech one for you in amateur nation.
Speaker: New York Governor Kathy, my last name sounds like a noise when you want to get something unstuck from the back of your throat.
Speaker: Hulkl is unveiling a statewide surveillance system just like China.
Speaker: Here's the best part.
Speaker: They're doing it in response to the escalating incidents of harassment against Jewish and Muslim communities as a counter-terrorism measure surveilling all social media platforms.
Speaker: You know, creating a problem, incidents of harassment against Jews and Muslims, ignoring the problem, then coming up with an oppressive solution that punishes everyone.
Speaker: Like when you were in grade school, one amateur threw a spitwad and you all got a pop quiz.
Speaker: Take it away, asshole.
Speaker: Also, we're very focused on the data we're collecting from surveillance efforts.
Speaker: What's being said on social media platforms?
Speaker: And we have launched an effort to be able to counter some of the negativity and reach out to people when we see hate speech being said.
Speaker: spoken about on online platforms.
Speaker: Our media analysis, our social media analysis unit, has ramped up its monitoring of sites to catch incitement to violence, direct threats to others.
Speaker: And all this is in response to our desire, our strong commitment to ensure that not only do New Yorkers be safe,
Speaker: My favorite part is where she mentioned how they'll reach out to people who engage in hate speech.
Speaker: Aw.
Speaker: They're just idiots who've been given too much power.
Speaker: Well, since the WEF won't let you fly because you're poor scum, and the WHO wants you drugged up and New York is watching you, you might just want to get in your car and get the hell out of Dodge.
Speaker: Nope.
Speaker: Lawmakers failed to stop a federal mandate that requires all vehicles sold after 2026 to be equipped with a kill switch.
Speaker: It was part of the 1.2 trillion, 1,100 page infrastructure bill.
Speaker: It already passed in Congress and the House.
Speaker: Well, at least we all got to vote on this stuff.
Speaker: Remember?

Speaker: a la carte and three pro things soon, but first, this week in pronoun stupidity on topic number three next.
Speaker: The honor and remember flag is a nationally recognized symbol that sends a message of appreciation for the sacrifice made by our fallen heroes and their families.

Speaker: Text FLAG to 71777 or visit honorandremember.org to learn more.
Speaker: Together, we remember them all.
Speaker: There's been an odd shift in human behavior over the last 15 plus years.
Speaker: A sense of entitlement, a constant need for attention, ironically coupled with the need to be left alone, a desire to be treated the same as everyone else, stupidly combined with the mindset of, I'm special, so treat me accordingly.

Speaker: I'm ready to go pro.
Speaker: All right.
Speaker: Now, step three.
Speaker: Topic number three.
Speaker: Hit me.
Speaker: It's time for This Week in Pronoun Stupidity.
Speaker: I've often said, if your pronouns are the most interesting thing about you, or even any little part of your identity, you have nothing to offer the planet.
Speaker: Get a hobby, a job, and life purpose besides making the rest of the world stop to coddle your amateur ass.
Speaker: Listen to this, Broad.
Speaker: You'll understand why I use that term soon enough.
Speaker: A millennial whining, shocker, at Amateur Nation's favorite location, the front seat of her car, about not only people who are supposed to just know her idiotic pronouns, but her new response to her superiors at her job.
Speaker: Yes, she somehow has one when they address her royal anus improperly.
Speaker: I'm non-binary.
Speaker: I hate to...
Speaker: Yep, hate.
Speaker: That's the right word.
Speaker: Chew on it, swish it around in your mouth.
Speaker: I hate hate.
Speaker: Amateur Nation is gonna say this whole topic is hate speech anyway.
Speaker: I go by they them.
Speaker: Do ya?
Speaker: Do ya go by they them?
Speaker: I always wondered what the thought process was of amateurs who play the pronoun game.
Speaker: I mean, what did they do before all this crap?
Speaker: Were they frustrated?
Speaker: Did they not figure out this crap for themselves?
Speaker: No!
Speaker: They had to wait until the media and higher education told them they could play the mental illness game in public.
Speaker: And I work in a store that is pretty much all women.
Speaker: Whoa, slow your roll, they.
Speaker: How do you know they're women?
Speaker: So whenever they're, like, addressing us or when they're talking, they're always like, hey, ladies.
Speaker: So I've taken it upon myself as someone that is non-binary to use this to not listen.
Speaker: And whenever anyone addresses a group as ladies, I am not included.
Speaker: So when they say, hey, ladies, let's, like, stop talking or, hey, ladies, let's, like, get to work, I will do none of it because you're not talking to me.
Speaker: I will not listen to anything that is said when it is started with, hey, ladies, I'm a they-die.
Speaker: Not a lady.
Speaker: A they-die.
Speaker: Shut up!
Speaker: Shut the fuck up!
Speaker: You have no right to take me to the truck!
Speaker: Shut up!
Speaker: Will you?
Speaker: Shut up!
Speaker: Shut up!
Speaker: Shut, shut, shut, shut, shut up!
Speaker: Shut up!
Speaker: Hey, lady, look out for that car!
Speaker: But she did listen when they said, hey lady, how'd you like a free donut when you get an untested vaccine?
Speaker: Sidebar, you know, U.S. universities received $13 billion in undocumented contributions from foreign donors.
Speaker: Gee, I wonder why this generation is indoctrinated, brainwashed, lazy, fragile, and stupid.
Speaker: Also, with that kind of money coming in, aren't you amateur parents kind of pissed that your kid didn't get a full ride?
Speaker: By the way, she herself used the words whenever they're addressing us or they're talking to us.
Speaker: So they are also they?
Speaker: How do you know they aren't she's or he's?
Speaker: I'm good.
Speaker: She must bust a spring when the Beastie Boys' Hey Ladies comes on the radio.
Speaker: In fact, let's have even more fun with this in hopes that this drain on society is listening.
Speaker: How about these popular revised songs?
Speaker: How about Beyonce's All the Single Vady's?
Speaker: And Look, be a Vady tonight.
Speaker: Oh, Vady Marmalade.
Speaker: Vady's Night by Cool and the Gang.
Speaker: She's a Vady.
Speaker: Who's that Vady?
Speaker: More like What's That Vady?
Speaker: Oh, here's one.
Speaker: Vady in red is mentally ill.
Speaker: That's why the Vady is a tramp.
Speaker: Hey, here's some irony.
Speaker: The song by The Temptations, treat her like a Vady.
Speaker: Vady Madonna.
Speaker: Oh, Sugarloaf's green-eyed Vady, more like green-haired Vady.
Speaker: Once, twice, three times a Vady.
Speaker: Kenny Rogers' simple love song, Theydy.
Speaker: Oh, Jimi Hendrix's foxy, Theydy.
Speaker: And the best for last, Aerosmith's Dude Looks Like a Theydy.
Speaker: Oh, thank you.
Speaker: Thank you very much.
Speaker: And as always, my beloved pro nation chimes in on point.
Speaker: This one from Kimberly Kitts said, your pronouns are on slash employable.
Speaker: This one from Broke Built LS 13.
Speaker: This is why most employers throw resumes with their gender bender shit on them in the garbage.
Speaker: This one from Grizz 172.
Speaker: They will get fired.
Speaker: Bye.
Speaker: This one from Arivero 0818.
Speaker: I'm gay, but I am really tired of this shit.
Speaker: Like it couldn't stay the way it was before, lesbians really make everything difficult.
Speaker: As I've often said, these amateurs literally won't live past age 40.
Speaker: I'm guessing more likely 30.
Speaker: Maybe that's why Amateur Nation, via the globalist regime, is promoting the fictional holiday of Transgender Day of Remembrance.
Speaker: Oh, suck my dick, all of you.
Speaker: Ha ha ha ha
Speaker: All right, it's time for a la carte.
Speaker: You hungry?
Speaker: Here we go.
Speaker: Well, here we are into December, approaching Christmas.
Speaker: A time of giving, family, friends, thankfulness.
Speaker: And this reminder from Bruce Willis.
Speaker: Die Hard is not a Christmas movie.
Speaker: It only takes place during Christmas.
Speaker: There's no Christmas theme.
Speaker: There's no spirit of Christmas message.
Speaker: No one falls in love during Christmas.
Speaker: No one is reminded of the true spirit of Christmas.
Speaker: So I guess what?
Speaker: Gremlins is a holiday favorite now.
Speaker: A Turkish Islamic preacher has said men without beards cause indecent thoughts in other men because they look like women.
Speaker: Tell me you're gay without telling me you're gay.
Speaker: If the only thing keeping you from being attracted to a man is a beard, you're gay.
Speaker: In Major League Baseball news, the Oakland Athletics will soon be playing in Las Vegas, making Oakland the first city to lose all four major sports franchises to relocation.
Speaker: And the great city of Cleveland gets the bad rap?
Speaker: In This Week I Told You the EV Hoax is Real News, New York is going to stick with diesel-powered snowplows after a failed test run of electric snowplows.
Speaker: And they worked great, except for they didn't have enough power.
Speaker: And they needed to be constantly moving.
Speaker: And they needed to recharge every two hours.
Speaker: But other than that, they worked great.
Speaker: I'm sensing a little sarcasm.
Speaker: Time to scour off or up?
Speaker: I just picture some seven-year-old child slave in China or the Congo who's been digging for lithium the last two years.
Speaker: You know, a miner miner.
Speaker: Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold up.
Speaker: You're telling me my spine looks like the letter C so you assholes could give up on Eevees after a couple years?
Speaker: British gay themed magazine attitude named Dylan Mulvaney, Woman of the Year.
Speaker: Uh, that doesn't make any sense.
Speaker: Got that gay men?
Speaker: Men who are attracted to men?
Speaker: A man like you, who is gay, is pretending to be a woman.
Speaker: A straight woman.
Speaker: A reminder that she, Dylan, is the sex that you're not fond of.
Speaker: Is Woman of the Year.
Speaker: When you say she, are you talking about a woman?
Speaker: No, I'm not.
Speaker: Because you, as a gay man, would never want fellow men to be crowned woman of the year since you like women so much.
Speaker: Good luck, gay men and women.
Speaker: You're all the same.
Speaker: Ah, equality.
Speaker: That's a bunch of cock.
Speaker: In other real women take it on the chin news, the Miss Universe pageant has filed for bankruptcy after accepting transgender contestants.
Speaker: Amazon tyrant Jeff Bezos is moving from Seattle to Florida.
Speaker: Not because of the lower taxes and the personal freedoms, but to be closer to his family.
Speaker: No, he couldn't afford to fly in his private jet anytime he wanted to visit his family or buy them a home near him in Seattle.
Speaker: Maybe he's moving back in with his parents.
Speaker: Oh, and Amazon is going to start selling cars online starting with Hyundai.
Speaker: That sounds a little crazy.
Speaker: Nah, what could possibly go wrong?
Speaker: I just hope they don't leave my new car on my doorstep.
Speaker: I'd hate to have my car stolen by porch pirates.
Speaker: I mean, I wonder if they'll deliver it in one of those environmentally friendly plastic bubble wrap envelopes.
Speaker: I'm sure returns are easy peasy when they send the wrong car.
Speaker: Just think of the Amazon reward points.
Speaker: The US Defense Department failed its financial audit for the sixth consecutive year.
Speaker: But you make sure you declare that 600 bucks you made on Etsy.
Speaker: We are talking about the US government, right?
Speaker: And finally, the crappiest place on earth, Disney World will issue pronoun pins to its janitorial staff saying, and I quote, it'll help us understand each other more and bring a positive impact within our community.
Speaker: It even has an exclamation point so you can see how fun it is.
Speaker: Finally, now you can overhear things like, hey, did Carl clean up that puke in the men's room?
Speaker: Nah, she's on break.
Speaker: It's so dumb.
Speaker: It's so dumb.
Speaker: It's brilliant.
Speaker: No, it's just dumb.
Speaker: Time for three pro things.
Speaker: Three things that are done right.
Speaker: Number one.
Speaker: Have I mentioned that I love drag racing?
Speaker: I'm a huge NHRA fan, but any kind of drag racing on any level is in my wheelhouse.
Speaker: Give me two cars starting at one point saying, I'll race you to that, and I'm watching it.
Speaker: Besides the sights, sounds, and smells of rubber and fuel, I love the Pro America stance and through line that drag racing fans and those behind the sport embrace.
Speaker: Listen to this audio of a drag race track announcer speaking before they play the national anthem.
Speaker: Number two.
Speaker: Truth Bomb time.
Speaker: This one from Tucker Carlson regarding governments, not our government, not government in general, governments, plural, worldwide.
Speaker: Listen.
Speaker: In the end, most governments are run by a small group
Speaker: of people for their own benefit without reference to what the majority wants.
Speaker: And I hate to believe that that's true in this country, but all the evidence suggests that it is.
Speaker: In fact, it's provable.
Speaker: You know how you prove it?
Speaker: Public opinion polling.
Speaker: Take a look at the latest Gallup poll.
Speaker: Pick a poll.
Speaker: What are the top 10 issues for people in the United States?
Speaker: And then compare those to the priorities of your leaders.
Speaker: If you assume that just because everybody wants something, you're going to get it.
Speaker: Think again, pal.
Speaker: It's very likely that, in fact, you won't get anything that you want.
Speaker: You will just pay for what a small group of other people want.
Speaker: That's the way it works.
Speaker: It's not just frustrating.
Speaker: It's a betrayal of the core promise of the country, which is the people rule.
Speaker: That's a criminal act.
Speaker: Number three.
Speaker: When I lived in Los Angeles, the late Ralphie May was one of the biggest draws in the city.
Speaker: Blunt, fast, clever, likable, and hilarious.
Speaker: Ralphie did not pull any punches.
Speaker: Here he is on the rainbow symbol of the LGBTQ community.
Speaker: And gay people just take shit.
Speaker: They used to be everybody's and make it gay.
Speaker: Remember when you was a kid, just draw a picture of your house?
Speaker: You put a nice big rainbow in the sky?
Speaker: You can't.
Speaker: They done took the rainbow.
Speaker: I want the rainbow back.
Speaker: You can't have the rainbow, goddammit.
Speaker: We didn't vote on this shit.
Speaker: I didn't get an email.
Speaker: Fuck you, you greedy bastard.
Speaker: How many colors do you need, goddammit?
Speaker: And what the fuck does a rainbow have to do with sucking dick anyway?
Speaker: Ain't like it's magically delicious.
Speaker: Isn't that right, girls?
Speaker: Cause if it wasn't, it'd be sorry to get you to do it once in a while, huh?
Speaker: And look, if you're gay and you're all worked up, well, guess what?
Speaker: It's just a fucking joke.
Speaker: Even though personally I do want the rainbow back, it's just a fucking joke.
Speaker: Look, you can take a dick in the ass.
Speaker: You can damn sure take a joke.
Speaker: Now before I go, I'm going to break format just a bit and leave you with a great quote.
Speaker: As I've said before, I talk about and give my opinion on social commentary and a lot of heavy weight, often negative stories and topics on this show.
Speaker: I try to add some levity with plenty of sarcasm and jokes and of course those audio drops you hear throughout.
Speaker: Call it my ability to somehow find the funny and the evil and the ludicrous that we pros must endure on a daily basis.
Speaker: It's why the world looks to comedians to help lessen their burden and help the world laugh at its problems.
Speaker: I leave you with a quote from the late Matthew Perry of Friends fame, who simply said, There's nothing better than a world where everybody's just trying to make each other laugh.
Speaker: I couldn't agree more.
Speaker: If you likey what you heary today, please leave a review of this fine program and copy and paste the link from whatever platform you listen on and text it to a fellow pro or an amateur that is doing life wrong.
