00:00:15,360 –> 00:00:33,880
I.
Hey everybody, welcome to
2
00:00:34,000 –> 00:00:37,440
Conspiracy the Show.
I’m your host Adam Todd Brown
3
00:00:37,680 –> 00:00:40,320
joining me as Co host.
Connor’s here.
4
00:00:40,320 –> 00:00:43,120
How’s it going, man?
Debbie Dad is back again with a
5
00:00:43,120 –> 00:00:45,280
pack of smokes and some empty
promises.
6
00:00:46,200 –> 00:00:47,880
I’m here for good this time
folks.
7
00:00:47,880 –> 00:00:52,440
I’ll never leave you again.
Also joining us, returning
8
00:00:52,440 –> 00:00:54,760
champion.
It was just on the pod very
9
00:00:54,760 –> 00:00:57,080
recently.
Logan Trent, how’s it going?
10
00:00:57,240 –> 00:00:59,200
I look forward to defending my
title.
11
00:00:59,360 –> 00:01:02,520
I’ll take all comers.
I tried to clap into my Airpod
12
00:01:02,520 –> 00:01:06,840
so it would pick up.
I’ll just overlay some applause,
13
00:01:07,080 –> 00:01:08,840
some sound effects.
Golf clap.
14
00:01:09,160 –> 00:01:11,840
Yeah, I’ll do some Foley work on
this podcast.
15
00:01:12,440 –> 00:01:15,040
Some Dave Foley work.
That’s where you get divorced.
16
00:01:15,040 –> 00:01:17,320
Then you host the nine seasons
of a poker show.
17
00:01:17,320 –> 00:01:21,800
It’s pretty good poker show.
You know, I wasn’t mad at poker
18
00:01:21,800 –> 00:01:24,120
shows when they were like,
really big.
19
00:01:24,360 –> 00:01:28,320
I loved poker shows.
Yeah, the poker era was fun.
20
00:01:28,600 –> 00:01:30,920
That was like second term George
Bush.
21
00:01:31,120 –> 00:01:34,160
We all watched like celebrity
Poker or late at night.
22
00:01:34,360 –> 00:01:38,360
I loved poker shows around the
Rounders era because I knew how
23
00:01:38,360 –> 00:01:41,440
to play poker from being a kid.
So like everyone in high school
24
00:01:41,440 –> 00:01:44,240
got into it and I just beat the
shit out of them and that’s how
25
00:01:44,240 –> 00:01:46,840
I made money instead of getting
a real job in high school.
26
00:01:47,040 –> 00:01:49,200
Oh, that’s awesome.
Yeah, it was fantastic.
27
00:01:49,440 –> 00:01:52,960
I did the same thing with yugioh
but it pays much less.
28
00:01:53,200 –> 00:01:56,040
You just really get to dominate
the social hierarchy of the
29
00:01:56,040 –> 00:01:58,040
Yugioh playing kids, that’s
about it.
30
00:01:58,040 –> 00:02:00,480
The Yugioh Championships on ESPN
2.
31
00:02:00,840 –> 00:02:03,680
Yeah, and, and I was cheated out
of my prize money too.
32
00:02:03,680 –> 00:02:05,720
When I beat the I there was a
school wide tournament and
33
00:02:05,720 –> 00:02:07,240
there’s this one guy was like,
yeah, I’ll hold all the money
34
00:02:07,240 –> 00:02:08,120
and then I’ll give it to the
guy.
35
00:02:08,479 –> 00:02:12,320
He just spent everybody’s money.
My most lucrative side hustle in
36
00:02:12,320 –> 00:02:16,360
high school and I was only able
to pull it off for maybe 2-3
37
00:02:16,360 –> 00:02:18,920
months.
I would just steal CDs from the
38
00:02:18,920 –> 00:02:21,760
mall and then sell them at
school.
39
00:02:21,760 –> 00:02:24,480
I don’t know if either of you
have ever tried that, but it
40
00:02:24,480 –> 00:02:27,120
fucking works.
It’s pure profit.
41
00:02:27,240 –> 00:02:31,720
Adam’s moving some swag, yeah.
You won’t get as much for CDs
42
00:02:31,720 –> 00:02:35,280
today, but still give it a shot.
Hey there Sonny, need something
43
00:02:35,280 –> 00:02:39,520
to do cocaine off of it.
This is obviously a very loosey
44
00:02:39,520 –> 00:02:41,960
goosey episode.
It’s a bonus episode, but
45
00:02:42,080 –> 00:02:44,800
because through the end of the
year I’m putting out all the
46
00:02:44,800 –> 00:02:47,720
bonus episodes for free.
It’s also a free episode.
47
00:02:48,000 –> 00:02:52,240
Again, subscribe at patreon.com
slash on pops or you don’t

pod.supercast.com if you want to
keep getting bonus episodes
49
00:02:56,520 –> 00:03:00,680
after the end of the year, we
are doing another conspiracy
50
00:03:00,680 –> 00:03:04,480
news roundup episode.
This is where I just type the
51
00:03:04,480 –> 00:03:10,960
word conspiracy into an RSS
reader and scroll through what
52
00:03:10,960 –> 00:03:14,520
it spits out until we have
enough stuff to talk about on a
53
00:03:14,520 –> 00:03:16,280
podcast.
Sometimes there’s more
54
00:03:16,280 –> 00:03:19,080
journalism than others going
into these shows, you know, and
55
00:03:19,080 –> 00:03:21,080
that’s OK.
It doesn’t always need to be the
56
00:03:21,080 –> 00:03:23,760
Elvis thesis.
Sometimes it’s just nice and
57
00:03:23,760 –> 00:03:25,840
light.
Yeah, I tracked down a dude’s
58
00:03:25,840 –> 00:03:29,880
military records and grave site
for an episode recently.
59
00:03:30,920 –> 00:03:34,520
This time around, my friend Barb
sent me a bunch of these
60
00:03:34,520 –> 00:03:36,400
stories.
Shout out Barb.
61
00:03:36,400 –> 00:03:37,640
Thank you.
I appreciate that.
62
00:03:37,840 –> 00:03:41,080
That’s that Barb.
Anyway, let’s talk about cartel
63
00:03:41,080 –> 00:03:43,880
members.
This is local news for me and
64
00:03:43,880 –> 00:03:45,640
Connor.
Yeah.
65
00:03:46,040 –> 00:03:48,720
Fortunately not completely local
because it happened in
66
00:03:48,720 –> 00:03:51,560
Riverside.
Where I’m from, it’s like I grew
67
00:03:51,560 –> 00:03:53,040
up around there.
Oh shit.
68
00:03:53,200 –> 00:03:56,400
And I am not surprised that this
is what’s going on out there at
69
00:03:56,400 –> 00:03:58,040
all.
Riverside seems like a great
70
00:03:58,040 –> 00:04:00,280
place where if you’re like a mid
level drug dude and then you
71
00:04:00,280 –> 00:04:03,000
have, I don’t know, MIL and a
half, you can still get a pretty
72
00:04:03,000 –> 00:04:06,280
fucking bitching MC mansion out
there and kind of just live it
73
00:04:06,280 –> 00:04:09,240
up like some kind of white trash
Tony Soprano and blend in
74
00:04:09,240 –> 00:04:11,160
perfectly.
Just get a Raiders tattoo and
75
00:04:11,160 –> 00:04:13,480
you’re one of the gang.
You know, one of the one of the
76
00:04:13,480 –> 00:04:15,440
crew.
I just feel like if you’re in
77
00:04:15,560 –> 00:04:18,880
California and the place is
named river or something instead
78
00:04:18,880 –> 00:04:23,160
of ocean something, it’s already
kind of like lowering your
79
00:04:23,160 –> 00:04:25,840
expectations.
And I hate to disappoint you
80
00:04:25,880 –> 00:04:27,440
even further.
Ain’t no river.
81
00:04:28,000 –> 00:04:31,320
Oh, wow, There’s no river.
There’s no nothing like that.
82
00:04:31,320 –> 00:04:32,960
That’s too nice.
That would be nice.
83
00:04:33,200 –> 00:04:36,320
Yeah, I mean, we have a river in
LA We got the LA River.
84
00:04:36,480 –> 00:04:39,080
There’s water in it sometimes.
It’s crazy when it rains.
85
00:04:39,560 –> 00:04:42,520
It is crazy, yeah.
And when there’s not water in
86
00:04:42,520 –> 00:04:46,200
it, we film music videos there.
Sometimes Arnold Schwarzenegger
87
00:04:46,200 –> 00:04:49,320
chases somebody.
Yeah, or or a great scene in
88
00:04:49,320 –> 00:04:50,800
drive.
I mean, there’s a lot of things
89
00:04:50,800 –> 00:04:53,440
you could do in the LA River
that go hard, frankly, whether
90
00:04:53,440 –> 00:04:56,160
it’s break dance or or drive a
car really fast.
91
00:04:57,320 –> 00:05:01,200
So this right off the bat, the
headline of this first story is
92
00:05:01,200 –> 00:05:04,400
bonkers.
Cartel leaders son-in-law faked
93
00:05:04,520 –> 00:05:09,560
death to enable life of luxury
in Riverside and there’s no life
94
00:05:09,560 –> 00:05:11,200
of luxury in Riverside.
Come on.
95
00:05:11,520 –> 00:05:12,680
But that’s what I’m saying
though.
96
00:05:12,680 –> 00:05:15,600
It’s like you, you, you’re white
trash killing it.
97
00:05:15,760 –> 00:05:19,720
You know, like, yeah, you have a
5 bedroom house with a pool,
98
00:05:19,880 –> 00:05:22,920
there’s some kind of shitty home
gym in a fucking ghetto ass home
99
00:05:22,920 –> 00:05:26,560
theater and you think that
you’re like fucking Scarface and
100
00:05:26,560 –> 00:05:28,960
it’s enough that you think that
because you live in Riverside
101
00:05:28,960 –> 00:05:31,640
and you’re stupid.
Can’t you become the king of
102
00:05:31,640 –> 00:05:33,920
Reseda?
Like, you know, it’s like have
103
00:05:33,920 –> 00:05:36,320
some dreams you.
Got no karate for that.
104
00:05:36,680 –> 00:05:39,680
Oh, that’s true, yeah.
Reseda, that’s a good market.
105
00:05:39,680 –> 00:05:41,360
That’s the Riverside of Los
Angeles.
106
00:05:42,800 –> 00:05:48,600
So the cartel leader son in
question, Cristian Fernando
107
00:05:48,600 –> 00:05:52,560
Gutierrez Ochoa, who will be
called Ochoa from here on out.
108
00:05:52,720 –> 00:05:57,960
He is the son-in-law of a drug
Lord known as El Mencho, which I
109
00:05:58,040 –> 00:06:01,720
looked it up means the Mencho in
English.
110
00:06:01,920 –> 00:06:05,440
Apparently it’s just like a play
on his name and how it’s
111
00:06:05,440 –> 00:06:08,200
pronounced.
It’s not like an actual word.
112
00:06:08,400 –> 00:06:11,640
Well, we should note it’s not
spelled like the Jewish Mensch.
113
00:06:11,840 –> 00:06:15,160
He’s not like El Mencho, the
nicest cartel guy.
114
00:06:15,400 –> 00:06:19,360
I honestly thought that was what
was going to come out the other
115
00:06:19,360 –> 00:06:23,000
end of that search and I was
like, why is this cartel leader
116
00:06:23,000 –> 00:06:25,680
called the Mensch?
That is fascinating.
117
00:06:25,840 –> 00:06:28,480
Just super friendly.
I always remember send Christmas
118
00:06:28,480 –> 00:06:31,760
gifts to his other cartel
associates.
119
00:06:31,920 –> 00:06:34,520
Well, he actually worked with a
guy who’s known mostly for
120
00:06:34,520 –> 00:06:39,960
eating pussy, El Mancho.
Yeah, my kind of cartel.
121
00:06:40,680 –> 00:06:44,640
Ooga.
Logan make a sound effect noise.
122
00:06:44,880 –> 00:06:47,080
I don’t want to do the pussy
eating sound effect.
123
00:06:47,080 –> 00:06:49,600
I don’t think it’ll come across
for anybody’s here as well,
124
00:06:49,600 –> 00:06:50,920
just.
You, you could have, you could
125
00:06:50,920 –> 00:06:52,360
have gone with boy yo-yo yo
yoing.
126
00:06:52,400 –> 00:06:55,080
You don’t have to be dirty dirty
about it.
127
00:06:55,240 –> 00:06:59,480
That’s more of a boob sound
effect or a Dong too, if you’re
128
00:06:59,480 –> 00:07:00,880
looking down there.
So yeah.
129
00:07:01,480 –> 00:07:03,360
Adam didn’t say do a good sound
effect.
130
00:07:03,360 –> 00:07:05,680
He said do a sound effect.
You could have done windshield
131
00:07:05,680 –> 00:07:10,440
wipers for all weaker, you know.
I’m trying to think of the
132
00:07:10,440 –> 00:07:12,800
greatest sound effect that
doesn’t make sense for eating
133
00:07:12,800 –> 00:07:15,560
pussy.
It has to be kind of like coins
134
00:07:15,560 –> 00:07:17,560
tingling in a fucking fountain.
Just.
135
00:07:19,760 –> 00:07:21,280
It’s not bad.
It’s not bad it.
136
00:07:21,480 –> 00:07:23,440
Kind of sounded like a really
tiny horse galloping.
137
00:07:25,200 –> 00:07:31,320
Yeah, galloping to the pussy.
All right.
138
00:07:31,560 –> 00:07:33,920
I think that ought to solve the
cartel issue.
139
00:07:35,040 –> 00:07:37,280
We’ll send him that.
So yeah, this guy’s name,
140
00:07:37,440 –> 00:07:42,120
Namicio O Seguera Cervante.
I don’t know how you get Mencho
141
00:07:42,440 –> 00:07:45,520
out of that, but it’s fine.
It’d be like if you’re naming
142
00:07:45,520 –> 00:07:48,440
your kid Namicio, you’re just
setting him up to be kind of a
143
00:07:48,440 –> 00:07:51,120
pack.
I mean, yeah, literally a
144
00:07:51,120 –> 00:07:52,400
nemesis, right?
Yeah.
145
00:07:52,920 –> 00:07:54,520
It’s like, well, his brother
evil.
146
00:07:54,520 –> 00:07:55,880
Though it wasn’t much better
either.
147
00:07:56,280 –> 00:07:58,720
OK.
They are both high-ranking
148
00:07:58,720 –> 00:08:02,400
members of the Helisco New
Generation Cartel.
149
00:08:02,680 –> 00:08:08,240
CJNG Ochoa started working for
the cartel in 2014.
150
00:08:08,400 –> 00:08:12,800
Married El Mencho’s daughter,
AUS citizen and coffee shop
151
00:08:12,800 –> 00:08:16,240
owner in Riverside.
You know this Lady Connor?
152
00:08:16,600 –> 00:08:19,600
I think I smashed once after a
gig at the Ontario Improv.
153
00:08:19,960 –> 00:08:23,520
How’s her Yelp reviews?
Yeah, they would link to the
154
00:08:23,520 –> 00:08:27,200
coffee shop in the article.
Yeah, if it’s like a front.
155
00:08:27,200 –> 00:08:29,200
I mean, they don’t have to care
about being a good coffee shop.
156
00:08:29,200 –> 00:08:31,040
It could be the worst coffee
shop ever if it’s a front.
157
00:08:31,040 –> 00:08:34,679
She does fantastic art on the
lattes, but it’s all just like
158
00:08:34,679 –> 00:08:39,760
terrifying cartel kills.
Can I get a Dia de Los Muertes
159
00:08:39,799 –> 00:08:41,120
skull or something?
Nope.
160
00:08:41,200 –> 00:08:42,280
Oh, OK, good.
Another.
161
00:08:42,280 –> 00:08:46,360
Headshot.
So while this guy was in Mexico,
162
00:08:46,520 –> 00:08:51,080
Ochoa, the son-in-law, he is
alleged to have facilitated the
163
00:08:51,080 –> 00:08:57,760
transport of 40 metric tons of
meth into the US.
164
00:08:57,960 –> 00:09:02,000
That seems like a lot because
they follow that up by saying
165
00:09:02,360 –> 00:09:04,760
and also 2000 kilograms of
cocaine.
166
00:09:04,960 –> 00:09:07,680
Or as Diddy calls it, a small
get together.
167
00:09:08,240 –> 00:09:11,960
Yeah, that seems like such a
disproportionate amount of
168
00:09:12,200 –> 00:09:14,520
drugs.
You have to know your market,
169
00:09:14,680 –> 00:09:17,640
you know, you just go where the
customer tells you to go, and if
170
00:09:17,640 –> 00:09:20,400
it’s meth, you go with meth.
It probably all went to
171
00:09:20,400 –> 00:09:22,280
Riverside.
I was about to say, the way
172
00:09:22,320 –> 00:09:23,680
where it tells you to go is
Riverside.
173
00:09:24,640 –> 00:09:26,400
I mean, that’s just good
business planning.
174
00:09:26,520 –> 00:09:29,640
The only thing that can make
that city feel exciting is meth,
175
00:09:30,240 –> 00:09:33,160
because when you’re on meth,
Riverside is like Paris, Paris,
176
00:09:33,160 –> 00:09:36,800
California, which is even worse
than Riverside you’ve ever been.
177
00:09:36,800 –> 00:09:41,240
It’s by Hemet that can go on for
way too long with obscure E
178
00:09:41,520 –> 00:09:44,440
California cities.
Yeah, Hemet, home of the Hemet
179
00:09:44,440 –> 00:09:47,800
Maze Stone, which I hear is very
fucking disappointing.
180
00:09:48,000 –> 00:09:51,040
Like really small.
We talked about it on once.
181
00:09:51,360 –> 00:09:56,560
It’s like a weird rock in the
middle of the desert or whatever
182
00:09:56,560 –> 00:10:01,640
the fuck Hemet is, and it’s got
this weird maze pattern carved
183
00:10:01,640 –> 00:10:02,800
into it.
Oh, weird.
184
00:10:02,800 –> 00:10:05,760
Surprisingly, looks like someone
eating pussy right.
185
00:10:06,320 –> 00:10:11,960
Yeah, with a really long tongue.
You just zoom out and it’s like
186
00:10:11,960 –> 00:10:13,960
a crop circle of someone going
down.
187
00:10:16,240 –> 00:10:18,640
That’s Hammett.
This guy is also alleged to have
188
00:10:18,640 –> 00:10:22,880
kidnapped two members of the
Mexican Navy in 2021 in an
189
00:10:22,880 –> 00:10:25,440
effort to get a stepmom released
from jail.
190
00:10:26,360 –> 00:10:29,480
Sounds like a good good stepson
honestly.
191
00:10:29,760 –> 00:10:31,960
When you get to the next point,
I actually have a point to make
192
00:10:31,960 –> 00:10:33,480
about this gentleman.
So.
193
00:10:34,000 –> 00:10:36,840
Do you think he was into those
stepmom porn videos and he
194
00:10:36,840 –> 00:10:40,000
thought if he did this, you
might be able to Curry favor,
195
00:10:40,000 –> 00:10:42,640
you know?
An Interpol Red Notice was
196
00:10:42,640 –> 00:10:48,360
issued for him after that
endeavour in 2022 and that’s
197
00:10:48,360 –> 00:10:53,240
when Ochoa went missing.
His father-in-law El Mencho
198
00:10:53,440 –> 00:10:57,120
started telling people around
him that he killed Ochoa for
199
00:10:57,120 –> 00:11:01,720
drawing too much attention to
the org, but in real life he had
200
00:11:01,720 –> 00:11:06,360
just led to Riverside to live
with his his love as a more.
201
00:11:06,520 –> 00:11:08,760
Isn’t this like what you would
want if you were in the mob?
202
00:11:08,760 –> 00:11:12,440
Like to get out at some point
and enjoy a fucking quiet life.
203
00:11:12,600 –> 00:11:14,960
Yeah, so I guess I was joking
when I said there’s no such
204
00:11:15,040 –> 00:11:17,600
thing is the life of luxury in
Riverside, because he bought a
205
00:11:17,600 –> 00:11:22,040
$1.2 million house through a
front company when they got
206
00:11:22,040 –> 00:11:26,960
there, and that feels like a lot
of money in Riverside.
207
00:11:27,160 –> 00:11:29,800
That’s what I’m saying.
Tony Soprano, Mick Mansion.
208
00:11:30,600 –> 00:11:33,440
And the house is the reason that
he got caught.
209
00:11:33,640 –> 00:11:36,960
Yeah, Realtor and the seller
both were like, oh, I think
210
00:11:36,960 –> 00:11:41,640
these are cartel guys.
So not to defend the cartel
211
00:11:41,640 –> 00:11:44,480
murderer, but let’s just look at
the facts here.
212
00:11:44,640 –> 00:11:48,840
This man gave up his job to
support his wifes career
213
00:11:48,840 –> 00:11:51,240
ambitions of opening up a coffee
shop.
214
00:11:51,760 –> 00:11:55,280
He also tried to get his mother
back on the right track and out
215
00:11:55,280 –> 00:11:58,040
of prison.
And then the only reason he was
216
00:11:58,040 –> 00:12:01,800
captured was because a racist
realtor looked at him and said I
217
00:12:01,800 –> 00:12:03,720
bet those guys are in the
cartel.
218
00:12:03,720 –> 00:12:06,520
I’m going to be honest a little
bit on this guy’s side right
219
00:12:06,520 –> 00:12:07,960
now.
Here’s the thing.
220
00:12:08,200 –> 00:12:12,640
I’m going to play devil’s
advocate and say I bet this
221
00:12:12,640 –> 00:12:19,800
realtor one has dealt with a lot
of Mexican clients before being
222
00:12:19,960 –> 00:12:22,920
in Riverside also.
We don’t know that she was
223
00:12:22,920 –> 00:12:24,480
white.
We don’t know that the people
224
00:12:24,480 –> 00:12:26,480
who owned the house before were
white.
225
00:12:26,640 –> 00:12:29,760
It’s Riverside Logan.
I don’t know, I don’t know.
226
00:12:29,960 –> 00:12:33,280
I feel like a white person would
be the only one with the
227
00:12:33,280 –> 00:12:36,760
tenacity to snitch on a cartel
person like that.
228
00:12:36,800 –> 00:12:39,000
I think other people would know
to mind their own fucking
229
00:12:39,000 –> 00:12:40,600
business.
Like oh this guy looks like a
230
00:12:40,600 –> 00:12:42,360
cartel member.
I’m not going to say a thing,
231
00:12:42,360 –> 00:12:45,000
I’m just going to enjoy my
Commission and not die.
232
00:12:45,240 –> 00:12:48,880
It is big care and energy to
think that you and your fucking
233
00:12:49,680 –> 00:12:51,920
iPhone can stand up to the
cartel.
234
00:12:52,120 –> 00:12:55,600
That realtor has to be someone
with enough white person
235
00:12:55,600 –> 00:12:57,640
Hairspray in there to deflect
the bullet.
236
00:12:57,640 –> 00:12:59,400
That’s why you feel that
confident.
237
00:12:59,400 –> 00:13:01,680
I don’t see this being a person
of color.
238
00:13:02,000 –> 00:13:05,400
As a person of color, that just
doesn’t seem right.
239
00:13:06,120 –> 00:13:08,000
I’m curious.
I wish we could find.
240
00:13:08,600 –> 00:13:15,360
Yeah, the trail goes cold.
So yeah, the feds caught wind of
241
00:13:15,440 –> 00:13:18,880
this guy still being alive and
being in Riverside.
242
00:13:19,040 –> 00:13:21,920
They start surveilling him.
He starts surveilling them back,
243
00:13:21,920 –> 00:13:23,560
which that’s cool.
That’s funny.
244
00:13:23,880 –> 00:13:27,120
Eventually he got arrested.
El Mencho is still on the run,
245
00:13:27,120 –> 00:13:29,040
though we don’t know where El
Mencho is.
246
00:13:29,280 –> 00:13:31,600
If they didn’t catch him through
the realtor they just would have
247
00:13:31,600 –> 00:13:34,320
noticed the escalation and pussy
eating happening in the
248
00:13:34,320 –> 00:13:37,720
Riverside area so that would
have been how they track him
249
00:13:37,720 –> 00:13:39,680
down.
The thing about El Men show is
250
00:13:39,680 –> 00:13:42,280
he’s got a lot of friends, he’s
done a lot of people some favors
251
00:13:42,280 –> 00:13:44,440
over the years, such a Mensch
that he is.
252
00:13:44,440 –> 00:13:47,480
So there’s many number of places
that they could be putting them
253
00:13:47,480 –> 00:13:50,560
up.
So next story, Remember that
254
00:13:50,560 –> 00:13:53,640
thing where people going on
TikTok and Instagram to post
255
00:13:53,640 –> 00:13:57,720
videos complaining about how
expensive McDonald’s hash Browns
256
00:13:57,720 –> 00:14:00,640
were when you bought them on
DoorDash?
257
00:14:01,760 –> 00:14:04,760
I, I don’t, I don’t, I don’t get
to like, I don’t go to
258
00:14:04,760 –> 00:14:08,200
carbnews.com.
I didn’t hear about this.
259
00:14:08,880 –> 00:14:13,680
I mean, I don’t go to
carbnews.com, but it was a
260
00:14:13,680 –> 00:14:16,440
thing.
Like it was a big story because
261
00:14:16,440 –> 00:14:19,960
it related to inflation and
people being mad about
262
00:14:20,200 –> 00:14:23,000
inflation.
I thought it was It’s kind of
263
00:14:23,000 –> 00:14:27,800
dumb to complain about the price
of a McDonald’s hash brown while
264
00:14:27,800 –> 00:14:30,280
you’re holding it in your hand
because that means, well, you
265
00:14:30,280 –> 00:14:32,320
still fucking ordered it so shut
the fuck up.
266
00:14:32,440 –> 00:14:35,320
Like make hash Browns at home.
Well, it’s, it’s kind of, it’s
267
00:14:35,320 –> 00:14:37,520
like complaining about the price
of something at Disneyland or
268
00:14:37,520 –> 00:14:38,720
711.
It’s like this.
269
00:14:38,800 –> 00:14:40,720
It’s supposed to, you know, what
do you, how do you think this
270
00:14:40,720 –> 00:14:43,080
works?
Also it’s DoorDash, of course
271
00:14:43,080 –> 00:14:46,520
it’s going to be more expensive,
but yeah, that’s the convenience
272
00:14:46,520 –> 00:14:50,840
of not going to a McDonald’s.
Yeah, just go to Walmart.
273
00:14:50,880 –> 00:14:55,560
You can buy like the frozen ones
for like 20 for like 3 bucks and
274
00:14:55,560 –> 00:14:58,160
just put it in an air fryer if
you love them that much.
275
00:14:58,960 –> 00:15:00,760
I didn’t mean to be dismissive
earlier, Adam.
276
00:15:00,760 –> 00:15:03,640
I just was like, wow, there’s so
much unrest that I missed the
277
00:15:03,680 –> 00:15:08,840
potato riots.
So it seems like the other
278
00:15:09,200 –> 00:15:13,760
’cause behind this could be
Speaking of cartels, there lurks
279
00:15:13,760 –> 00:15:20,120
among us a frozen potato cartel
that is made-up of four
280
00:15:20,120 –> 00:15:23,360
companies that I won’t name.
You’re not going to recognize
281
00:15:23,360 –> 00:15:27,240
any of the names.
The Russets, the Yukons, the
282
00:15:27,240 –> 00:15:29,280
Reds.
Yeah.
283
00:15:29,440 –> 00:15:31,600
And whatever a fourth potato is,
yeah.
284
00:15:32,400 –> 00:15:34,680
The I the Idaho Chamber of
Commerce.
285
00:15:35,080 –> 00:15:40,120
This potato cartel has recently
been hit with a bunch of federal
286
00:15:40,120 –> 00:15:44,800
lawsuits, 5 actually accusing
them of conspiring to
287
00:15:44,800 –> 00:15:49,200
artificially fix prices by
sharing trade information and
288
00:15:49,200 –> 00:15:54,360
coordinating price raises
starting in 2021, which is right
289
00:15:54,360 –> 00:15:57,400
around the time people were
bitching about the price of
290
00:15:57,400 –> 00:15:59,400
their hash Browns.
Go figure.
291
00:15:59,560 –> 00:16:02,720
This is not a conspiracy, this
is like just an actual thing
292
00:16:02,720 –> 00:16:05,560
that happened.
Like most of the food inflation
293
00:16:05,560 –> 00:16:10,000
they’ve already shown has like
was drastically upmarked by
294
00:16:10,000 –> 00:16:12,160
companies.
Like there’s a reason Kroger got
295
00:16:12,160 –> 00:16:16,080
slapped with like a food
inflation charge on their
296
00:16:16,080 –> 00:16:18,520
grocery prices.
And like, there’s a reason why
297
00:16:18,520 –> 00:16:22,160
you’re seeing rollbacks from
like targeted places and grocery
298
00:16:22,160 –> 00:16:25,760
prices because they definitely
just scam that shit beyond
299
00:16:25,760 –> 00:16:28,920
actual inflation.
And I guess like whether or not
300
00:16:28,920 –> 00:16:31,920
like the public or the like
Johnny Lock comes after you, you
301
00:16:31,920 –> 00:16:35,240
just go, I don’t know, boat got
stuck, supply chain like.
302
00:16:36,160 –> 00:16:40,560
I’ll just pay my $2,000,000 fine
on the 300 million profit I
303
00:16:40,560 –> 00:16:41,920
made.
Whoopsie, Daisy.
304
00:16:42,320 –> 00:16:44,600
I want to push back on one
thing, he said.
305
00:16:44,600 –> 00:16:47,040
And I feel like we’re going to
talk about it again later.
306
00:16:47,240 –> 00:16:51,280
This is the textbook definition.
Oh yeah.
307
00:16:51,480 –> 00:16:54,800
What’s not conspiracy is
questioning the government.
308
00:16:54,880 –> 00:16:57,240
No, yeah, I I should have
phrased that better.
309
00:16:57,240 –> 00:17:01,480
This is actual conspiracy, not
like tinfoil hack.
310
00:17:01,520 –> 00:17:03,640
Yeah.
This isn’t Roswell Which?
311
00:17:03,880 –> 00:17:07,400
Just because they don’t put it
on carbnews.com doesn’t mean
312
00:17:07,400 –> 00:17:11,040
that you know the the lamestream
media can control this
313
00:17:11,040 –> 00:17:13,599
narrative.
Wow, kind of shit talking our
314
00:17:13,599 –> 00:17:16,040
biggest sponsor.
The lamestream media?
315
00:17:16,560 –> 00:17:18,160
Oh no, I’ve heard carb news, you
know.
316
00:17:18,280 –> 00:17:20,760
Oh I wish, the lamestream media
holy shit.
317
00:17:20,880 –> 00:17:23,400
People are going to find our
bodies tomorrow with a fucking
318
00:17:23,400 –> 00:17:25,720
potato shoved in our mouths for
talking shit.
319
00:17:25,720 –> 00:17:27,839
Oh, that.
‘D be a fun way to go.
320
00:17:28,040 –> 00:17:30,080
I’m Irish, you can’t kill me
with a potato.
321
00:17:30,360 –> 00:17:32,200
You just get stronger and
stronger.
322
00:17:32,640 –> 00:17:34,160
That’s like shooting Suge
Knight.
323
00:17:34,520 –> 00:17:38,280
It’s like Popeye.
So these actions are alleged to
324
00:17:38,280 –> 00:17:43,000
have caused prices for frozen
potato products to rise by 47%
325
00:17:43,160 –> 00:17:46,360
between July 2022 and 2024.
That is a lot.
326
00:17:46,560 –> 00:17:51,320
That’s a big I cancelled fucking
stream yard because they boosted
327
00:17:51,320 –> 00:17:53,560
the price 50%.
No thank you.
328
00:17:53,560 –> 00:17:58,600
Actually 100% it’s $44.00.
They raised it to $88 and Nope.
329
00:17:58,960 –> 00:18:02,440
Nope, fuck that, fuck that and
that’s probably why I stopped
330
00:18:02,440 –> 00:18:05,680
ordering DoorDash.
I mean every once in a while
331
00:18:05,680 –> 00:18:08,840
I’ll do it, but God damn is that
a bad value.
332
00:18:09,040 –> 00:18:12,520
Like if you’re struggling with
your finances and ordering
333
00:18:12,520 –> 00:18:16,440
DoorDash a bunch, stop ordering
DoorDash.
334
00:18:16,760 –> 00:18:19,000
That will help.
I think it’s like an like a
335
00:18:19,200 –> 00:18:20,920
tree, like almost like an
emergency thing.
336
00:18:20,920 –> 00:18:24,120
Like I, but my car’s been, it’s
a shop for the last couple days.
337
00:18:24,120 –> 00:18:26,680
So I literally like I’m limited
to like what’s in walking
338
00:18:26,680 –> 00:18:30,360
distance from my place.
So I was like late.
339
00:18:31,600 –> 00:18:36,200
It’s only for very extenuating.
I don’t know, it just feels so
340
00:18:36,200 –> 00:18:38,400
privileged to me.
Just fucking go pick it up.
341
00:18:38,600 –> 00:18:41,200
You save so much money, be a
total fat piece of shit, and eat
342
00:18:41,200 –> 00:18:43,520
fast food all the time.
Just go fucking pick it up with
343
00:18:43,520 –> 00:18:47,280
your car.
I’ve never used door dash cuz
344
00:18:47,280 –> 00:18:51,400
just but I can’t imagine a
situation where I need a fucking
345
00:18:51,400 –> 00:18:55,680
whopper in that diary of a
circumstance that I have to have
346
00:18:55,680 –> 00:18:59,280
it delivered to me ASAP.
Like just eat literally anything
347
00:18:59,280 –> 00:19:02,720
else or order something from a
place that does delivery that
348
00:19:02,720 –> 00:19:04,400
doesn’t take advantage of their
drivers.
349
00:19:04,800 –> 00:19:06,680
I fuck with a whopper though,
you know.
350
00:19:06,920 –> 00:19:08,680
Sometimes you just, you need
what you need, man.
351
00:19:08,680 –> 00:19:11,080
You know, sometimes you need
some apple cider, salmon Donuts
352
00:19:11,080 –> 00:19:13,600
from Trader Joe’s.
Other times you need to kill a
353
00:19:13,600 –> 00:19:16,520
man.
Here’s the thing, will the place
354
00:19:16,520 –> 00:19:21,040
that already does delivery also
stop at my local grocery store
355
00:19:21,040 –> 00:19:23,880
and pick me up groceries and
beer if I need them to?
356
00:19:24,320 –> 00:19:26,280
DoorDash will pretty fucking
handy.
357
00:19:26,480 –> 00:19:28,960
That is pretty handy.
But yeah, they should treat
358
00:19:28,960 –> 00:19:31,600
their drivers better.
But who shouldn’t?
359
00:19:31,720 –> 00:19:33,880
What company is out there
treating their drivers really
360
00:19:33,880 –> 00:19:34,840
good?
Probably none.
361
00:19:35,080 –> 00:19:38,240
I used to work for a mom and pop
delivery app that was like a
362
00:19:38,240 –> 00:19:40,960
competitor to post mates but not
really like they had a
363
00:19:40,960 –> 00:19:42,360
dispatcher.
They didn’t have like an
364
00:19:42,440 –> 00:19:44,480
algorithm that sorted the
deliveries to you.
365
00:19:44,480 –> 00:19:49,000
Like some dude like messaged it
to you and they you could scam,
366
00:19:49,000 –> 00:19:51,720
they scammed them for quite a
bit of money that start up cash
367
00:19:51,720 –> 00:19:53,320
or whatever.
Like we we milked them.
368
00:19:53,400 –> 00:19:55,280
You know me and the boys.
Nice.
369
00:19:55,480 –> 00:19:58,680
Yeah, When I lived in Wisconsin,
there was a thing, and this was
370
00:19:58,680 –> 00:20:02,800
like in the 90s, but there was a
delivery service like that where
371
00:20:02,960 –> 00:20:06,680
they would just like it was just
a handful of restaurants you
372
00:20:06,680 –> 00:20:10,200
could order from and they like
used a dispatcher type thing.
373
00:20:10,680 –> 00:20:12,520
I would order Hooters from there
all the time.
374
00:20:12,720 –> 00:20:15,680
But then you don’t have the
ambience of a divorced dad
375
00:20:15,680 –> 00:20:18,560
trying to hit on a waitress if
you don’t go there in person.
376
00:20:18,760 –> 00:20:21,200
Some of us read Playboy for the
articles and go to Hooters for
377
00:20:21,200 –> 00:20:23,120
the wings, man.
All right, some people are
378
00:20:23,120 –> 00:20:24,960
enlightened.
I feel like you’re threatened by
379
00:20:24,960 –> 00:20:28,200
it.
I have Hooters flower in my
380
00:20:28,200 –> 00:20:29,920
pantry.
That exists?
381
00:20:29,920 –> 00:20:32,280
What the fuck, Hooters.
Staples.
382
00:20:32,600 –> 00:20:36,800
You can buy Hooters flower and
Hooters wing sauce in stores and
383
00:20:36,800 –> 00:20:40,400
just make Hooters wins at home
Because Speaking of inflation,
384
00:20:40,560 –> 00:20:43,640
Hooters is one of the most
expensive restaurants.
385
00:20:44,000 –> 00:20:47,480
You wouldn’t expect it, but
fucking walk in there someday
386
00:20:47,480 –> 00:20:50,280
and try to order lunch and get
out of there spending less than
387
00:20:50,280 –> 00:20:53,120
$35.
And before someone complaints
388
00:20:53,320 –> 00:20:56,000
about us complaining about
DoorDash, because I know there’s
389
00:20:56,000 –> 00:20:59,560
going to be somebody in the
comments, yes, I understand that
390
00:20:59,560 –> 00:21:02,600
some people have certain
disabilities that prevent them
391
00:21:02,600 –> 00:21:05,000
from going to places, so they
use services like that.
392
00:21:05,160 –> 00:21:06,640
Please don’t make that
complaint.
393
00:21:07,480 –> 00:21:09,680
I don’t understand that.
Try harder.
394
00:21:10,520 –> 00:21:13,400
Try harder not to have crippling
diseases.
395
00:21:13,760 –> 00:21:15,520
Yeah.
Here’s what I’m hearing.
396
00:21:15,520 –> 00:21:18,760
You had two choices, press a
button and give up or be
397
00:21:18,760 –> 00:21:23,640
inspiring and you chose failure.
And if that’s ableist, then
398
00:21:23,640 –> 00:21:27,240
well.
I’ve seen enough montages on
399
00:21:27,240 –> 00:21:31,840
television and movies that show
that it’s really just you need
400
00:21:31,840 –> 00:21:34,920
an old man trainer yelling at
you and that’s enough to get you
401
00:21:34,920 –> 00:21:38,120
out of the chair.
In an upbeat, like 120 beats per
402
00:21:38,120 –> 00:21:41,800
minute song about getting better
or being the best.
403
00:21:42,360 –> 00:21:45,880
My favorite thing was in Dark
Knight Rises where Batman’s
404
00:21:45,880 –> 00:21:49,040
spine is literally broken in
half and the way they fix it is
405
00:21:49,040 –> 00:21:52,440
just some old dude in a nasty
shithole prison.
406
00:21:52,440 –> 00:21:56,840
Just punches his spine back into
alignment and he does sit ups
407
00:21:56,840 –> 00:21:59,360
until he can get out.
Fantastic message.
408
00:22:00,000 –> 00:22:02,240
Why do you keep that guy in
prison, by the way?
409
00:22:03,240 –> 00:22:04,800
Let that fell.
Out Batman?
410
00:22:05,040 –> 00:22:07,120
Well, he’s the Batman, Adam.
You know he’s the only one who
411
00:22:07,120 –> 00:22:09,600
can foil your plans.
I don’t remember, was the guy
412
00:22:09,600 –> 00:22:11,840
who punched him also like an
inmate or did they?
413
00:22:11,880 –> 00:22:12,880
Yeah.
He was an inmate.
414
00:22:12,880 –> 00:22:15,680
He was just somebody who’s like,
eventually, like, you know,
415
00:22:15,680 –> 00:22:19,000
probably three people died
before he learned the perfect
416
00:22:19,000 –> 00:22:21,840
punching for spine techniques.
But, you know, that’s you can’t
417
00:22:21,840 –> 00:22:23,320
make an omelet without breaking
some eggs.
418
00:22:24,200 –> 00:22:26,120
Yeah.
Or spines in this case.
419
00:22:26,600 –> 00:22:29,400
He’s like, I was so fucking
close with Aquaman, just hold
420
00:22:29,400 –> 00:22:31,480
still.
You know that there was some
421
00:22:31,480 –> 00:22:33,480
fucking chiropractor watching
that movie.
422
00:22:33,480 –> 00:22:36,480
He’s like, see, see.
It works.
423
00:22:37,160 –> 00:22:38,120
No, it doesn’t.
No.
424
00:22:38,760 –> 00:22:40,920
Oh, I thought they would be like
you’re making a mockery of my
425
00:22:40,920 –> 00:22:43,880
Fine Arts.
I hope at least one chiropractor
426
00:22:43,880 –> 00:22:45,920
was like, you know what, fuck
it, I’m going to try that
427
00:22:45,920 –> 00:22:48,560
tomorrow.
Someone’s getting the fucking
428
00:22:48,560 –> 00:22:52,320
uppercut to the lower spine in
the morning.
429
00:22:52,320 –> 00:22:55,160
Let’s see what happens.
Prepare to receive the Healing
430
00:22:55,160 –> 00:22:57,640
Fist.
Are you willing to participate
431
00:22:57,640 –> 00:23:00,080
in a clinical trial for a new
treatment?
432
00:23:00,160 –> 00:23:02,840
Sign here.
Wow.
433
00:23:03,080 –> 00:23:05,520
All right, next story.
This will be quick.
434
00:23:05,520 –> 00:23:08,560
This is a follow up to a story
we’ve talked about a lot on this
435
00:23:08,560 –> 00:23:12,240
pod, The Fat Leonard Scandal.
Oh, fat Leonard.
436
00:23:12,360 –> 00:23:14,880
Blam a lamb.
Fat Leonard getting fat blam a
437
00:23:14,880 –> 00:23:17,440
lamb.
Fat Lenny on the back, Blam a
438
00:23:17,640 –> 00:23:19,400
flat Leonard.
I was going to go with the hey,
439
00:23:19,400 –> 00:23:23,200
hey, hey, Fat Leonard.
It’s fantastic that there’s a
440
00:23:23,200 –> 00:23:27,080
line in this article that just
says Fat Leonard known such for
441
00:23:27,080 –> 00:23:29,360
his gigantic size, which is
just.
442
00:23:29,520 –> 00:23:32,320
That’s some nice writing there.
Thanks for that information.
443
00:23:33,000 –> 00:23:37,680
Yeah.
Exposition Fat Leonard is a
444
00:23:38,200 –> 00:23:43,800
Malaysian contractor who, short
version of the story, built the
445
00:23:43,800 –> 00:23:51,240
Navy out of $35 million by
bribing naval officers like of
446
00:23:51,240 –> 00:23:54,000
the 7th Fleet.
Like the most prestigious of all
447
00:23:54,000 –> 00:23:57,640
the naval fleets.
He would bribe them with like
448
00:23:57,800 –> 00:24:00,600
secret blowjobs from
prostitutes.
449
00:24:00,800 –> 00:24:03,360
A suckling pigs.
You know who doesn’t want a
450
00:24:03,360 –> 00:24:05,840
suckling pig?
Sometimes just money, all kinds
451
00:24:05,840 –> 00:24:08,800
of favors.
In exchange for that, they would
452
00:24:08,800 –> 00:24:16,000
give him the fucking routes of
military ships and reroute them
453
00:24:16,000 –> 00:24:19,000
to his ports.
And when they got to his ports,
454
00:24:19,280 –> 00:24:24,000
he would way overcharge for the
services that he rendered to
455
00:24:24,000 –> 00:24:25,720
these ships.
Because when they pull into
456
00:24:25,720 –> 00:24:28,680
port, you have to do shit, you
know, maintenance with ships all
457
00:24:28,680 –> 00:24:31,480
the time.
He would way, way overcharge for
458
00:24:31,480 –> 00:24:34,640
all that shit.
And that’s how he made all of
459
00:24:34,640 –> 00:24:38,320
this money milking the Navy.
Feel uncomfortable with putting
460
00:24:38,320 –> 00:24:41,320
suckling pigs next to blow jobs
just.
461
00:24:41,560 –> 00:24:45,680
I yeah, I don’t know one in the
same like wouldn’t wouldn’t
462
00:24:45,680 –> 00:24:48,400
surprise me.
So just so they like who has
463
00:24:48,400 –> 00:24:51,880
traded just the giant hunk of
flesh for goods and services
464
00:24:51,880 –> 00:24:53,480
since, like, Genghis Khan, you
know?
465
00:24:54,480 –> 00:24:57,680
Yeah, I don’t feel bad for any
situation that ends with the
466
00:24:57,680 –> 00:25:01,560
military U.S. military
industrial complex being screwed
467
00:25:01,560 –> 00:25:04,200
over.
Yeah, and to pay my rent this
468
00:25:04,200 –> 00:25:09,000
month. 4 lbs of fat back.
A bunch of the trials involving
469
00:25:09,000 –> 00:25:12,600
the people who took bribes.
I feel like this, I mentioned
470
00:25:12,600 –> 00:25:16,160
this when we did an update about
this a couple weeks ago and I
471
00:25:16,160 –> 00:25:19,000
mentioned it then too.
I feel like the government did
472
00:25:19,000 –> 00:25:23,040
this part on purpose.
But basically most of these
473
00:25:23,040 –> 00:25:25,960
trials, the ones that went to
trial, some people just took
474
00:25:25,960 –> 00:25:28,800
plea deals.
The ones that went to trial, the
475
00:25:28,800 –> 00:25:34,680
government, the prosecution made
all of these very obvious and
476
00:25:34,720 –> 00:25:38,960
seemingly intentional mistakes
to the point where the judge was
477
00:25:38,960 –> 00:25:42,120
like, all right, this fucking
trial is over.
478
00:25:42,360 –> 00:25:46,560
You all have to pay $100 fines
and you get like a month
479
00:25:46,560 –> 00:25:48,040
probation.
It’s fine.
480
00:25:48,200 –> 00:25:51,520
The shitty lawyer is like hiding
a suckling pig in its jacket.
481
00:25:51,520 –> 00:25:55,400
Like, oh man.
Well, I feel like the government
482
00:25:55,400 –> 00:25:59,400
didn’t want this to really,
really go to trial.
483
00:25:59,760 –> 00:26:04,560
No, because if in the article it
says he was extraordinary Co-op,
484
00:26:04,800 –> 00:26:08,920
extraordinarily cooperative to a
ridiculous degree, which is just
485
00:26:08,920 –> 00:26:12,680
like he was an MVP snitch, which
yes, yeah.
486
00:26:12,880 –> 00:26:17,400
And also it was like 1000 people
got indicted or he had like 1000
487
00:26:17,400 –> 00:26:19,600
people that could have got
indicted, which that is like a
488
00:26:19,600 –> 00:26:22,800
bribery Hall of Fame.
Like, you know, I’m from
489
00:26:22,800 –> 00:26:25,120
Chicago.
That’s that’s ridiculous.
490
00:26:25,120 –> 00:26:27,240
Jordan numbers.
You’re putting in that work.
491
00:26:27,280 –> 00:26:30,920
Like that’s Kobe ethic.
Tammany Hall would be proud.
492
00:26:31,280 –> 00:26:34,760
Yeah, when you’re bribing at
noon, I’ve been bribing since
493
00:26:34,760 –> 00:26:38,520
4:00 AM That’s extra hours you
put in that time.
494
00:26:38,520 –> 00:26:42,280
I’ve have twice as much bribing
as you have gotten into a single
495
00:26:42,280 –> 00:26:44,040
day.
I’ve been bribing so much they
496
00:26:44,040 –> 00:26:48,760
call me Joe Bribing and fucking
president had given our bribes.
497
00:26:48,960 –> 00:26:51,240
He’s making it rain, but it’s
just suckling pigs.
498
00:26:51,240 –> 00:26:54,960
Just.
Bribes vibes giving us some
499
00:26:54,960 –> 00:26:58,360
bribes vibes.
So he’s been sentenced to 15
500
00:26:58,360 –> 00:27:00,240
years in prison, but he’s
appealing that.
501
00:27:00,360 –> 00:27:02,640
That’s the only update.
It’s the only appeal he’s ever
502
00:27:02,640 –> 00:27:04,560
seen.
That fat fucker hates fruit.
503
00:27:05,160 –> 00:27:09,000
I would love if he came out just
prison jacked and they had to
504
00:27:09,000 –> 00:27:12,040
change it to Swole Leonard.
Buff Leonard.
505
00:27:12,320 –> 00:27:16,200
Yeah, he’s just huge.
He is super tall also, so yeah.
506
00:27:16,240 –> 00:27:20,240
He’s like 6-2 and 3:50, but I
want that to switch around to
507
00:27:20,240 –> 00:27:22,080
like.
This is when he comes out Big
508
00:27:22,080 –> 00:27:24,680
Lenny with a bunch of Aryan
Nation tattoos.
509
00:27:25,560 –> 00:27:29,400
So yeah, he’s also only got 8
1/2 years left on his sentence.
510
00:27:29,760 –> 00:27:31,440
I bet he’s still got some of
that cash.
511
00:27:31,600 –> 00:27:34,160
There’s no way he doesn’t.
He’s got something in the
512
00:27:34,160 –> 00:27:36,360
ceiling, right?
These guys like, OK, there’s a
513
00:27:36,520 –> 00:27:38,520
Rubbermaid tub buried in the
desert somewhere.
514
00:27:38,720 –> 00:27:40,640
And you know what?
I want that for him.
515
00:27:40,800 –> 00:27:43,280
I hope he’s still got some of
that military money.
516
00:27:43,400 –> 00:27:45,160
I’ll take some of it.
What do you want me to do?
517
00:27:45,160 –> 00:27:46,880
Military.
And I’m not trying to say
518
00:27:46,880 –> 00:27:52,520
anything bribellous.
So Speaking of updates, you know
519
00:27:52,520 –> 00:27:55,480
that thing where The Onion
bought Infowars by way of an
520
00:27:55,480 –> 00:27:57,960
auction with the help of Sandy
Hook families?
521
00:27:58,160 –> 00:28:00,840
Yeah.
That that might not be happening
522
00:28:01,040 –> 00:28:02,080
after all.
Boo Boo.
523
00:28:03,840 –> 00:28:05,840
That’s a bummer.
This this was one of the most
524
00:28:05,840 –> 00:28:10,120
like 1 to one funny thing.
You know, this was a great feel
525
00:28:10,120 –> 00:28:11,480
good story.
We all needed that.
526
00:28:11,680 –> 00:28:15,240
Yeah, I mean, I’m not as crazy
about it, but we’ll get to it.
527
00:28:15,440 –> 00:28:17,760
Well, because you actually think
about the implications of
528
00:28:17,760 –> 00:28:19,760
things, Adam.
For me, it would be funny for a
529
00:28:19,760 –> 00:28:21,440
few seconds and I never think
about it again.
530
00:28:21,440 –> 00:28:23,960
And that would be fine.
I just like Alex Jones.
531
00:28:23,960 –> 00:28:25,760
Failing that just makes me
happy.
532
00:28:26,320 –> 00:28:29,280
Yeah, but that already happened.
Yeah, but I want him to fail
533
00:28:29,280 –> 00:28:31,800
harder.
I want I want him personally to
534
00:28:31,840 –> 00:28:37,200
succeed, but his views to be
parsed through very carefully.
535
00:28:37,520 –> 00:28:40,360
I really wanted them to reveal
what were in the supplements
536
00:28:40,360 –> 00:28:42,840
that they got.
That would have been fantastic.
537
00:28:43,680 –> 00:28:47,200
Oh yeah.
So what happened is a bidder who
538
00:28:47,200 –> 00:28:52,440
was affiliated with Alex Jones
objected to this deal at the
539
00:28:52,440 –> 00:28:57,480
last minute because that bidder,
which is First United American
540
00:28:57,480 –> 00:29:01,480
Companies, the only other
bidder, actually bid twice as
541
00:29:01,480 –> 00:29:06,040
much as The Onion.
At first, The Onion bid 1.75
542
00:29:06,040 –> 00:29:08,280
million.
This company bid 3 million.
543
00:29:08,280 –> 00:29:10,280
It’s not quite twice as much,
but close.
544
00:29:10,480 –> 00:29:14,600
And eventually, with the help of
Sandy Hook families who promised
545
00:29:14,600 –> 00:29:18,400
to pool their resources once the
money starts rolling in from
546
00:29:18,400 –> 00:29:21,920
their litigation against Alex
Jones, they promised to put that
547
00:29:21,920 –> 00:29:24,520
toward the Onions bid.
And The Onion was able to
548
00:29:24,520 –> 00:29:26,680
increase their bid to
$7,000,000.
549
00:29:26,880 –> 00:29:30,400
The claim here is that First
United American Companies were
550
00:29:30,400 –> 00:29:35,640
not allowed to counter that bid,
and now it’s going to court.
551
00:29:35,800 –> 00:29:40,040
And it was a whole thing where
for a while, Infowars went down
552
00:29:40,240 –> 00:29:42,720
like it seemed like they were
shut down.
553
00:29:42,720 –> 00:29:46,200
And then this happened.
And now Alex Jones is back on
554
00:29:46,200 –> 00:29:48,600
Infowars.
He did a whole thing where he,
555
00:29:48,600 –> 00:29:51,200
like, did a video storming back
into the office.
556
00:29:54,600 –> 00:29:57,040
Yeah, it’s it’s a whole goddamn
thing.
557
00:29:57,240 –> 00:29:59,800
And here’s the thing.
I don’t want Alex Jones to
558
00:29:59,800 –> 00:30:01,880
succeed either.
But I also don’t want The Onion
559
00:30:01,880 –> 00:30:06,360
to buy Infowars.
I want the left to come up with
560
00:30:06,480 –> 00:30:09,600
some sort of resistance that
isn’t just jokes.
561
00:30:09,800 –> 00:30:13,960
And we don’t have that in any
capacity.
562
00:30:13,960 –> 00:30:18,240
We got jokes and retweets.
That’s what we got right now.
563
00:30:18,440 –> 00:30:21,560
And all those pithy salons did
so much to stop the rise of
564
00:30:21,560 –> 00:30:23,840
Hitler.
What all those, that’s a quote
565
00:30:23,840 –> 00:30:25,640
from something.
It’s like all those pithy salons
566
00:30:25,640 –> 00:30:27,200
did so much to stop the rise of
Hitler.
567
00:30:27,200 –> 00:30:29,680
Like yeah, we all mean these
dumb ass fucking jokes, but it
568
00:30:29,680 –> 00:30:32,000
was like that people actually
seizing power behind the scenes
569
00:30:32,000 –> 00:30:33,000
while you weren’t paying
attention.
570
00:30:33,160 –> 00:30:36,520
Yeah, that, that’s the thing.
Like this shit’s not really
571
00:30:36,520 –> 00:30:39,960
funny anymore.
And I don’t know, I mean, I
572
00:30:39,960 –> 00:30:42,800
guess the onions going to try,
but they’re just going to be
573
00:30:42,800 –> 00:30:46,400
making fun of people who are
like winning right now.
574
00:30:46,560 –> 00:30:48,280
Like we’re we’re just going to
laugh about it.
575
00:30:48,280 –> 00:30:51,120
Wow, the country goes up in
fucking flames.
576
00:30:51,160 –> 00:30:53,000
And I get it.
It’s what the onion does.
577
00:30:53,000 –> 00:30:55,920
It’s what it’s what we do.
But I don’t know.
578
00:30:56,040 –> 00:30:57,880
I don’t know.
I’m not in favor.
579
00:30:58,080 –> 00:31:00,560
I mean, what if they, what if
they rebranded and make it
580
00:31:00,560 –> 00:31:03,200
exactly what you’re talking
about, like a left wing, like a
581
00:31:03,200 –> 00:31:05,640
left wing in Infowars with
better research or what you
582
00:31:05,640 –> 00:31:07,280
know?
It would be great if they took
583
00:31:07,280 –> 00:31:10,560
Infowars and they just made it
as like a fact checking thing.
584
00:31:10,560 –> 00:31:13,400
Like legitimately just fact
checked every single.
585
00:31:13,400 –> 00:31:15,040
War on information?
Yeah, that would be really.
586
00:31:15,040 –> 00:31:18,040
Cool, like it actually lived up
to the name Infowars like it?
587
00:31:18,040 –> 00:31:20,360
Was always a cool name.
No one ever thought the name
588
00:31:20,360 –> 00:31:24,120
wasn’t cool.
Yeah, no, fantastic branding,
589
00:31:24,120 –> 00:31:27,440
but like, yeah, that would be
great if it was just completely
590
00:31:27,760 –> 00:31:31,920
just straight up most boring
fact checking, like just a nerd
591
00:31:31,920 –> 00:31:34,600
with his nose in a book.
Just Nope, that’s inaccurate.
592
00:31:34,600 –> 00:31:36,600
Nope, that’s inaccurate.
Nope, that’s inaccurate.
593
00:31:37,000 –> 00:31:42,320
That’s a Mallard, not a duck.
Yeah, they start to get really,
594
00:31:42,320 –> 00:31:45,520
really pedantic.
So yeah, we’ll see how that
595
00:31:45,520 –> 00:31:48,440
goes.
This episode, we’re recording at
596
00:31:48,440 –> 00:31:52,120
least a week in advance, and I
think there will be a decision
597
00:31:52,120 –> 00:31:56,800
on this by Monday, so this could
be completely old fucking news
598
00:31:56,800 –> 00:32:00,000
by the time people hear this.
All right, these last two
599
00:32:00,000 –> 00:32:04,000
stories, the fucking Sean Combs
situation.
600
00:32:04,280 –> 00:32:06,800
It’s so weird to call a mess.
Oh, is there something happening
601
00:32:06,800 –> 00:32:10,840
with Diddy?
Man, I am fascinated by how this
602
00:32:10,840 –> 00:32:13,600
is going to turn out.
Because here’s the thing, I’m
603
00:32:13,600 –> 00:32:16,320
getting strong Jeffrey Epstein
vibes.
604
00:32:17,520 –> 00:32:22,120
But unlike Jeffrey Epstein’s
collaborators, I feel like we’re
605
00:32:22,120 –> 00:32:27,320
going to get names and maybe
lawsuits and arrests out of
606
00:32:27,320 –> 00:32:29,960
this.
I don’t know what the difference
607
00:32:29,960 –> 00:32:36,080
is between Jeffrey Epstein’s
band of pedophiles and ditties.
608
00:32:36,240 –> 00:32:38,600
That might make it different.
I don’t know.
609
00:32:38,600 –> 00:32:41,240
I couldn’t put my.
I think I think they might name
610
00:32:41,240 –> 00:32:45,280
names up to like Trey Songz
level but anybody more famous
611
00:32:45,280 –> 00:32:47,760
might be protected.
I think there’s a very obvious
612
00:32:47,840 –> 00:32:51,920
visual difference between
Epstein and Diddy’s.
613
00:32:52,480 –> 00:32:54,240
Oh, maybe that it’s.
Yeah, yeah.
614
00:32:54,240 –> 00:32:55,240
No.
Is that it?
615
00:32:55,240 –> 00:32:56,640
Is that what you’re tiptoeing
there?
616
00:32:56,720 –> 00:32:58,800
Yeah, that’s, that’s what I was
getting, yeah.
617
00:32:59,160 –> 00:33:01,080
I mean, there’s a reason R Kelly
is in jail.
618
00:33:02,320 –> 00:33:07,040
And I trying to think of is
there ever been a white musician
619
00:33:07,040 –> 00:33:08,720
who has ever done what R Kelly
did?
620
00:33:10,640 –> 00:33:12,720
No, I don’t think so.
Yeah, yeah.
621
00:33:12,920 –> 00:33:14,880
What was it?
It’s that tweet where it’s like
622
00:33:14,880 –> 00:33:19,760
listening to a 70’s rock song
where it’s like, hey, girl, oh,
623
00:33:19,760 –> 00:33:22,640
they mean like girl, like woman,
hey little girl.
624
00:33:22,640 –> 00:33:26,320
Oh, because she’s like tiny hey
little girl.
625
00:33:26,320 –> 00:33:29,080
Young enough to be in grade
school and like.
626
00:33:30,240 –> 00:33:35,040
Yeah, yeah, there’s so many 70’s
rock songs about having sex with
627
00:33:35,040 –> 00:33:38,040
tweens and shit and now?
Ted Nugents.
628
00:33:38,160 –> 00:33:39,400
Yeah, I was just going to say it
now.
629
00:33:39,400 –> 00:33:42,200
Most of them are Trump
supporters anyway.
630
00:33:42,240 –> 00:33:45,480
The Diddy sex abuse case.
This shit just keeps getting
631
00:33:45,480 –> 00:33:49,880
more and more interesting.
Last week we learned somehow
632
00:33:49,880 –> 00:33:53,240
prosecutors had gotten their
hands on handwritten notes from
633
00:33:53,240 –> 00:33:58,800
inside his jail cell that showed
he’d been contacting witnesses
634
00:33:59,080 –> 00:34:03,920
and was planning to try and pay
them off or dig up dirt on them
635
00:34:04,120 –> 00:34:08,679
to compel them not to testify.
And there was a pre planned
636
00:34:08,679 –> 00:34:13,440
sweep of jail cells at the
facility he’s being held at and
637
00:34:13,639 –> 00:34:16,760
surprised they found these notes
of his.
638
00:34:17,120 –> 00:34:20,719
Someone took pictures of them
and sent them to the prosecution
639
00:34:20,880 –> 00:34:24,520
and the prosecution.
I feel like I’ve at least
640
00:34:24,520 –> 00:34:29,159
watched enough legal procedurals
to know you can’t use that
641
00:34:29,159 –> 00:34:31,440
evidence.
That’s not how you get evidence.
642
00:34:31,440 –> 00:34:34,679
You don’t take it from someone’s
cell and take pictures of it and
643
00:34:34,679 –> 00:34:37,600
send it the prosecution.
That’s essentially like breaking
644
00:34:37,600 –> 00:34:42,480
in to someone’s shit.
And the judge, it seems, for
645
00:34:42,480 –> 00:34:45,440
now, has agreed with that
stance.
646
00:34:45,440 –> 00:34:48,960
That was also the defense’s
stance, which was, hey, you
647
00:34:48,960 –> 00:34:51,800
know, in the Constitution it
says were not subject to
648
00:34:51,800 –> 00:34:55,480
unreasonable searches and
seizures and things of the like.
649
00:34:55,639 –> 00:34:59,760
And their contention is that
that’s what this is also that
650
00:34:59,800 –> 00:35:03,680
what they took is protected by
attorney-client privilege.
651
00:35:03,840 –> 00:35:09,640
So the judge has ordered them to
destroy the notes and not factor
652
00:35:09,640 –> 00:35:14,000
them into their work going
forward until they decide on
653
00:35:14,040 –> 00:35:15,760
whether they can actually use
them.
654
00:35:16,000 –> 00:35:19,160
Crazy.
You gotta wonder if they leaked
655
00:35:19,160 –> 00:35:22,880
the evidence in order to
contaminate it so that they
656
00:35:22,880 –> 00:35:26,000
couldn’t use it.
I feel like I don’t feel like
657
00:35:26,000 –> 00:35:29,160
this is gonna make a huge amount
of difference considering the
658
00:35:29,520 –> 00:35:30,320
tons of.
Others.
659
00:35:30,320 –> 00:35:34,080
That’s also a good point.
Yeah, seems to be hours of video
660
00:35:34,360 –> 00:35:36,920
that I’m.
Yeah, this is like complaining
661
00:35:36,920 –> 00:35:40,280
about not getting parsley on
your fucking pasta dish.
662
00:35:40,280 –> 00:35:42,360
It’s like, I didn’t need that at
all.
663
00:35:42,360 –> 00:35:44,400
No, that’s, that’s fine, you
know.
664
00:35:44,920 –> 00:35:50,760
Yeah, I the trial starts May 5th
and boy, am I interested to see
665
00:35:50,760 –> 00:35:53,400
how that goes.
That is, you think he’s going to
666
00:35:53,400 –> 00:35:58,880
make it to trial?
I mean, I mean, I, I can’t
667
00:35:58,880 –> 00:36:03,520
prognosticate, you know?
Yeah, like I I can’t say one way
668
00:36:03,600 –> 00:36:06,480
or the other.
It’s the American prison system.
669
00:36:06,840 –> 00:36:08,760
Someone can fucking kill him if
they want to.
670
00:36:08,800 –> 00:36:11,760
Yeah, I feel like if anybody
could get got in prison, it
671
00:36:11,880 –> 00:36:16,560
probably would be Diddy,
considering the amount of people
672
00:36:16,560 –> 00:36:20,760
that just don’t like him so.
He’s got a lot of money though.
673
00:36:20,920 –> 00:36:23,880
Yeah.
But also on the flip side of
674
00:36:23,880 –> 00:36:26,880
that is Tony Busby.
He’s a lawyer who has filed
675
00:36:26,880 –> 00:36:33,640
civil claims on behalf of 120
victims of Sean Combs.
676
00:36:33,840 –> 00:36:39,080
And now someone who is so far
only described as a powerful man
677
00:36:39,280 –> 00:36:43,560
has sued Tony Busby, accusing
him of extortion.
678
00:36:43,720 –> 00:36:47,840
I’m familiar with Tony Busby,
very much so, being in near the
679
00:36:47,840 –> 00:36:50,880
Houston area.
Oh, is he a Houston lawyer?
680
00:36:51,240 –> 00:36:54,000
He’s a Houston lawyer.
So just because I want you’re
681
00:36:54,000 –> 00:36:56,720
going to go into some stuff, but
I kind of want to set a little
682
00:36:56,720 –> 00:37:00,200
background on Tony Busby.
Tony Busby is the lawyer who
683
00:37:00,240 –> 00:37:02,480
brought the case against Deshaun
Watson.
684
00:37:02,640 –> 00:37:07,320
So he has a big legal toehold in
sex cases like this.
685
00:37:07,560 –> 00:37:12,720
He’s also the person behind the
Travis Scott lawsuit for Astro
686
00:37:12,720 –> 00:37:18,120
World, so this isn’t his first
rodeo when it comes to this.
687
00:37:18,400 –> 00:37:21,640
He’s also insane because he has
a lot of property and he had a
688
00:37:21,640 –> 00:37:25,800
huge argument that in that he
had a tank parked in front of
689
00:37:25,800 –> 00:37:28,960
one of his properties, like an
actual tank, and they had to
690
00:37:28,960 –> 00:37:31,760
keep fining him until he moved
it to Texarkana.
691
00:37:31,760 –> 00:37:35,160
So he’s kind of a crazy Texas
lawyer guy.
692
00:37:35,520 –> 00:37:38,920
More like tanks arcana.
Why does he only sue black
693
00:37:38,920 –> 00:37:40,760
people?
The fuck Tony Busby.
694
00:37:40,760 –> 00:37:43,000
There’s no white people out
there committing sexual
695
00:37:43,000 –> 00:37:45,080
assaults.
I was going to try to think of
696
00:37:45,080 –> 00:37:48,120
something to argue against that,
but he also represented that
697
00:37:48,120 –> 00:37:51,480
fucking piece of shit Ken Paxton
against his impeachment thing,
698
00:37:51,480 –> 00:37:56,760
who is a very white man so.
On Tony, Well, back to this
699
00:37:56,760 –> 00:37:59,440
powerful man.
What they’re claiming is that he
700
00:37:59,440 –> 00:38:02,800
sent a letter with, quote,
entirely fabricated and
701
00:38:02,800 –> 00:38:07,280
malicious allegations of sexual
assault in an attempt to force a
702
00:38:07,280 –> 00:38:10,640
private settlement.
The lawsuit says Busby’s letter
703
00:38:10,640 –> 00:38:14,200
included wildly false, horrific
allegations claiming the man,
704
00:38:14,200 –> 00:38:18,080
quote, raped multiple minors,
both male and female, who had
705
00:38:18,080 –> 00:38:20,400
been drugged at parties hosted
by Combs.
706
00:38:20,600 –> 00:38:24,440
Also claims Busby threatened to
take a different course if they
707
00:38:24,440 –> 00:38:27,400
didn’t make a private
settlement, and they took that
708
00:38:27,400 –> 00:38:31,360
to mean that he was going to go
public, make more public
709
00:38:31,360 –> 00:38:34,040
statements and report them to
the FBI.
710
00:38:34,240 –> 00:38:36,600
The FBI part, it turns out, is
super important.
711
00:38:36,800 –> 00:38:38,760
Apparently letters like this are
very common.
712
00:38:38,760 –> 00:38:41,600
It’s called a demand letter.
And when there’s a situation
713
00:38:41,600 –> 00:38:44,720
like this, the lawyer fires off
a letter and says, hey, we don’t
714
00:38:44,720 –> 00:38:47,720
want to go to court, right?
Why don’t we just settle this?
715
00:38:47,920 –> 00:38:52,040
And that’s perfectly legal.
We’ll link to this Rolling Stone
716
00:38:52,040 –> 00:38:55,000
article.
They talk to a lawyer, you know,
717
00:38:55,200 –> 00:38:59,760
legal expert and what they said
is basically you can send those
718
00:38:59,760 –> 00:39:03,760
letters that standard, but you
can’t end it with or will tell
719
00:39:03,760 –> 00:39:07,200
the cops or or will report you
to the FBI.
720
00:39:07,400 –> 00:39:12,400
That is the part that if Tony
Busby did that, then yes, this
721
00:39:12,440 –> 00:39:16,120
is actually extortion.
But if that’s not in this
722
00:39:16,120 –> 00:39:17,480
letter, this is actually just
like.
723
00:39:17,640 –> 00:39:19,280
That’s why I think it’s
bullshit.
724
00:39:19,280 –> 00:39:22,680
Like I said, he this is the guy
who has gotten like 23
725
00:39:22,680 –> 00:39:24,440
settlements out of Deshaun
Watson.
726
00:39:24,440 –> 00:39:29,360
So it’s not like I don’t think
he’s on the level of trial
727
00:39:29,360 –> 00:39:33,080
lawsuit lawyer where he clearly
knows the law enough not to be
728
00:39:33,080 –> 00:39:35,480
stupid enough to try this type
of thing.
729
00:39:35,880 –> 00:39:38,880
So that’s why I’m going to call
bullshit on this.
730
00:39:39,280 –> 00:39:42,600
Yeah, it seems like someone who
has enough money to file a
731
00:39:42,600 –> 00:39:48,280
lawsuit just to get Tony Busby,
extortionist, in fucking search
732
00:39:48,280 –> 00:39:52,480
results.
But yeah, Tony Busby, for his
733
00:39:52,480 –> 00:39:56,040
part, he called it a last ditch
attempt to stop me from
734
00:39:56,040 –> 00:39:59,880
revealing names in public
lawsuits and then added, it
735
00:39:59,880 –> 00:40:03,160
won’t work.
This is so goddamn exciting.
736
00:40:03,680 –> 00:40:08,360
I want names in lawsuits.
And what’s especially exciting
737
00:40:08,560 –> 00:40:12,480
is Tony Busby has said, well,
now that this happened, now that
738
00:40:12,640 –> 00:40:16,480
I got sued for doing normal
lawyer shit and keeping it
739
00:40:16,480 –> 00:40:19,880
anonymous, now we’re just going
to reveal who we send these
740
00:40:19,880 –> 00:40:22,160
demand letters to.
Going forward.
741
00:40:22,160 –> 00:40:25,720
So it’s all on the up and up and
but that’s not the outcome
742
00:40:25,720 –> 00:40:28,080
motherfuckers wanted.
Also, is this Jay-Z?
743
00:40:28,280 –> 00:40:30,800
I’m going to say no.
I know you’re saying it’s Jay-Z,
744
00:40:30,800 –> 00:40:34,360
but I don’t think Jay-Z is weird
enough where he would just call
745
00:40:34,360 –> 00:40:37,960
himself a celeb like I feel like
his ego would be, and I think
746
00:40:37,960 –> 00:40:39,680
he’s smarter than that in
defense.
747
00:40:40,000 –> 00:40:44,000
I don’t know that he’s the one
calling himself a celebrity.
748
00:40:44,480 –> 00:40:48,600
I think they said that they that
he called himself a person of
749
00:40:48,600 –> 00:40:52,240
interest in a celebrity, like in
the deposit or whatever.
750
00:40:52,400 –> 00:40:54,440
I think it’s Ashton Kutcher.
Really.
751
00:40:55,040 –> 00:40:56,760
Ashton Kutcher hangs out with
Diddy.
752
00:40:56,760 –> 00:41:00,400
Ashton Kutcher has a bunch of
scumbag friends like Wilder
753
00:41:00,400 –> 00:41:07,080
Valderrama and Danny Masterson
and is a weirdo, so I could and
754
00:41:07,080 –> 00:41:09,120
I could see him calling himself
a celebrity.
755
00:41:09,360 –> 00:41:13,000
And and what is assault if not a
really extreme form of being
756
00:41:13,000 –> 00:41:17,280
punked?
The only reason I bring up Jay-Z
757
00:41:17,320 –> 00:41:22,480
is there was a singer named
Jaguar Wright, went on Piers
758
00:41:22,480 –> 00:41:28,040
Morgan’s YouTube show and just
straight up said Jay-Z is part
759
00:41:28,040 –> 00:41:33,560
of this and that Jay-Z is a
fucking pedophile and Jay-Z and
760
00:41:33,560 –> 00:41:37,760
Beyoncé’s legal team fucking
sent the cavalry after Piers
761
00:41:37,760 –> 00:41:41,720
Morgan and that mother fucker
edited the episode to remove
762
00:41:41,720 –> 00:41:45,240
those claims and like publicly
apologized.
763
00:41:46,080 –> 00:41:49,280
It’s going to be crazy if it
just ends up being Mace.
764
00:41:49,800 –> 00:41:51,920
If it’s just Mace after all this
time.
765
00:41:52,800 –> 00:41:54,640
Just ends up being Mace.
Like, yeah.
766
00:41:55,200 –> 00:41:56,600
It’s like, you know, they say
when something’s on the
767
00:41:56,600 –> 00:41:58,320
Internet, it’s it’s up there
forever.
768
00:41:58,320 –> 00:42:00,600
It’s like Beyoncé literally has
enough money she can take shit
769
00:42:00,600 –> 00:42:03,760
off of the Internet.
Beyoncé could just buy the
770
00:42:03,760 –> 00:42:07,000
Internet, like the whole thing.
If she wanted to take away
771
00:42:07,000 –> 00:42:08,880
lemonade from us, she could
probably get it there.
772
00:42:08,880 –> 00:42:11,000
Like only a few people would
have the MP threes.
773
00:42:11,200 –> 00:42:12,840
Doesn’t Jay-Z actually have more
money?
774
00:42:13,040 –> 00:42:15,520
I don’t, I haven’t.
You know, I stopped keeping
775
00:42:15,520 –> 00:42:18,480
track because Beyoncé wasn’t
answering my DMS.
776
00:42:19,880 –> 00:42:22,400
He’s like an actual billionaire,
I know that much.
777
00:42:22,800 –> 00:42:25,600
Yeah, it’s not a Tom Brady
Giselle situation.
778
00:42:25,760 –> 00:42:27,640
Like, yeah, they’re probably on
equal footing.
779
00:42:27,840 –> 00:42:31,520
Yeah, I like Beyoncé had that
line in that song because there
780
00:42:31,520 –> 00:42:35,280
was that video of Solange like
slapping Jay-Z.
781
00:42:35,480 –> 00:42:37,960
Oh she doesn’t.
She kicked the shit out of him.
782
00:42:37,960 –> 00:42:41,280
She was throwing like she was
throwing legs like it was a
783
00:42:41,280 –> 00:42:43,040
fucking cage back.
She knew how to.
784
00:42:43,120 –> 00:42:45,400
She went down trying to stop his
ground game.
785
00:42:45,760 –> 00:42:48,720
I just like that Beyoncé had a
song where she addressed that
786
00:42:48,760 –> 00:42:51,800
and she said, of course shit
goes down when there’s a billion
787
00:42:51,800 –> 00:42:55,040
dollars on the elevator.
I like that line too.
788
00:42:55,280 –> 00:42:57,240
Yeah.
And my follow up line is how
789
00:42:57,240 –> 00:43:02,120
much of that was Solange’s like
$637 probably she.
790
00:43:02,240 –> 00:43:05,920
Probably got 637 K.
Yeah, yeah, probably.
791
00:43:06,080 –> 00:43:08,120
You know, afterwards she was
just like, you’re a great
792
00:43:08,120 –> 00:43:10,200
sister, Like, yeah.
Here’s the thing.
793
00:43:10,360 –> 00:43:13,000
Solange makes better albums,
though we don’t have to dwell on
794
00:43:13,000 –> 00:43:14,240
it.
Fell is fell.
795
00:43:14,240 –> 00:43:16,480
It’s fell.
It’s calm down with this Solange
796
00:43:16,480 –> 00:43:19,600
takes it’s too much.
Exactly, I just I didn’t want it
797
00:43:19,600 –> 00:43:21,520
to get heated, so push him
through it.
798
00:43:21,680 –> 00:43:24,680
What if it’s Rick Rubin?
What if it’s Rick Ross?
799
00:43:25,560 –> 00:43:28,800
Oh God.
I was actually, I read a profile
800
00:43:28,800 –> 00:43:33,920
of Nug on him on carbnews.com.
He’s getting kind of a lifetime
801
00:43:33,920 –> 00:43:36,320
achievement award.
Well, if it’s Rick Ross, I feel
802
00:43:36,320 –> 00:43:39,000
like he could get to Diddy
because of his fucking
803
00:43:39,400 –> 00:43:42,520
correctional officer
connections, which he keeps
804
00:43:42,520 –> 00:43:44,560
trying to hide.
So yeah.
805
00:43:45,160 –> 00:43:47,120
Pictures out there dude, just
embrace it.
806
00:43:47,120 –> 00:43:48,240
Oh.
Man, what?
807
00:43:48,720 –> 00:43:51,600
What if it’s Drake?
Drake would be the most like,
808
00:43:51,600 –> 00:43:53,880
oh, I just you’d instantly
believe that.
809
00:43:53,880 –> 00:43:56,520
Like yeah, no.
Yeah, Drake, I wouldn’t.
810
00:43:57,040 –> 00:44:01,120
I think Kendrick Lamar would
just explode with joy if you
811
00:44:01,120 –> 00:44:03,720
heard that.
Like, Oh yeah, yeah, he would
812
00:44:03,720 –> 00:44:05,840
just be.
He’d laugh himself to death like
813
00:44:05,840 –> 00:44:08,960
that fucking weasel in Who
Framed Roger Rabbit.
814
00:44:10,240 –> 00:44:14,800
Oh, also, Busbeat claims he has
already settled a bunch of cases
815
00:44:14,800 –> 00:44:18,240
by way of these demand letters
and said that those cases quote,
816
00:44:18,440 –> 00:44:22,000
involve people you know.
I mean, like I said, he got his
817
00:44:22,480 –> 00:44:25,920
clients paid with Deshaun
Watson, so this isn’t his first
818
00:44:26,120 –> 00:44:29,800
man dealings with that.
Deshaun Watson should have just
819
00:44:29,800 –> 00:44:33,840
like, not done that.
Deshaun Watson is the only
820
00:44:33,840 –> 00:44:37,040
injury where I heard nobody
feeling bad for him when he tore
821
00:44:37,040 –> 00:44:39,880
his Achilles.
Like everyone’s just like, yes.
822
00:44:41,040 –> 00:44:44,240
Yeah.
So yeah, we’ll see how this
823
00:44:44,240 –> 00:44:46,480
unfolds.
I’ve been following this fucking
824
00:44:46,480 –> 00:44:49,640
Diddy case.
I mean, everyone has been
825
00:44:49,640 –> 00:44:52,440
probably but.
May is a long time.
826
00:44:52,840 –> 00:44:55,600
It is, yeah.
We’ll, we’ll see how it goes.
827
00:44:55,600 –> 00:44:57,280
I’m sure he’ll be fine.
Yeah, I’m sure.
828
00:44:57,320 –> 00:44:58,840
Yeah, nothing will happen.
Yeah.
829
00:44:58,960 –> 00:45:01,120
Yeah.
So hey, that’s our episode.
830
00:45:01,120 –> 00:45:03,040
Logan.
Connor, thank you both for doing
831
00:45:03,040 –> 00:45:04,520
the pod.
I appreciate it.
832
00:45:04,600 –> 00:45:08,160
We are fresh off of talking
about heinous sexual assault
833
00:45:08,160 –> 00:45:12,840
allegations that are probably
mostly true, and that makes this
834
00:45:12,840 –> 00:45:14,320
a perfect time to plug some
shit.
835
00:45:14,320 –> 00:45:17,560
I have a solo podcast called In
Broad Daylight that you should

00:45:55,280 –> 00:45:56,720
mentioned this on other
podcasts.
848
00:45:56,720 –> 00:45:58,920
Don’t commit genocide.
Three of us have not committed
849
00:45:58,920 –> 00:46:02,320
genocide this entire podcast.
Pretty pretty easy thing.
850
00:46:02,320 –> 00:46:04,440
So yeah.
Although Connor did go check the
851
00:46:04,440 –> 00:46:07,080
door so I don’t know if that was
genocide related but.
852
00:46:07,240 –> 00:46:10,080
Yeah, and like, you can’t see my
lower half.
853
00:46:10,080 –> 00:46:11,160
Like you don’t know what I’m
doing.
854
00:46:11,160 –> 00:46:14,560
Oh yeah, no, you could be just
typing out toes instructions for
855
00:46:14,560 –> 00:46:16,640
you.
Directing the troops, Connor,
856
00:46:16,640 –> 00:46:20,640
what do you got to plug?
I am 1/3 of the Mean Voice
857
00:46:20,640 –> 00:46:23,960
podcast, they scripted comedy
podcast that’s very funny and
858
00:46:23,960 –> 00:46:26,840
you can watch it on YouTube
which you should because it’s
859
00:46:26,840 –> 00:46:30,800
funny and people like it.
And thank you.
860
00:46:30,800 –> 00:46:35,440
Adam has been a guest and I have
7 comedy albums on Spotify.
861
00:46:35,440 –> 00:46:36,600
Are you sure that I listen to
them?
862
00:46:36,960 –> 00:46:39,680
And a comedy special on YouTube
called Jokes About Fucking.
863
00:46:40,080 –> 00:46:44,160
And I think that’s it.
Let’s get the fuck out of here.
864
00:46:44,160 –> 00:46:45,600
Logan say goodbye.
Bye.
865
00:46:46,240 –> 00:46:49,000
Connor, say goodbye.
Goodbye.
866
00:46:49,240 –> 00:46:50,440
Goodbye everybody, we love you.
