Speaker 2 0:36

I have nowhere to go, nowhere to go.

Speaker 1 0:38

We're doing back-to-back episodes today and Leo's here and Perrielle Hi.

Speaker 3 0:44

I missed you guys. Ashton Brown Still no. How many years haslle Hi? Ashton Brown Still no. How many years has he known you? Ashton Brown, can't get your last name right.

Speaker 4 0:50

Ashton Brown Not even close. There's so many added sounds in there that don't.

Speaker 1 0:54

Oh my God, I had a horrible situation at the Comedy Cellar. Oh, you didn't remember someone's name, Amina. Don't say the name now, no, I'm saying it. What happened? So Mateo Lane has a very close friend, Amina Amani Now, great name for someone who's, for me, dyslexic, and the whole thing and stuttering, it comes out Ani Mami. I walk by her, I go hi. She goes hi, Modi. I go bye, I go to the whole table and I walk away and then she goes Modi. I go yeah, she goes what's my name? And I was like and that's, if I would have gone back without her asking that it would have come out, my brain would have triggered it all. But then I was like, oh no, you blanked, I completely blanked and I almost said Alicia, which would have just made her take the sharp knife and put it through my throat. But it was a horrible experience. So what did you do? How?

Speaker 2 1:54

did you pivot it out?

Speaker 1 1:55

Can I say something about the no hold on? What I did do was the other three comics couldn't stop laughing. Reggie and I forgot who else was there. A few of the comments and oh will still events. Okay, modi, shut up, they were just like you, just you, just you, just just shut up and say you don't know, and it was, it was, it was a funny.

Speaker 2 2:12

you, you know the situation so their ridicule saved the interaction with her yes, yes, okay, yes but it was, I will say, the comedy seller.

Speaker 4 2:21

Um is hard to be on your toes conversationally, socially, sometimes, because there's such a rotating cast of people that are constantly traipsing through the olive tree.

Speaker 1 2:32

I mean, if you sit there, no, but she's somebody I know and love.

Speaker 3 2:36

I've been with her and her child and I'm.

Speaker 1 2:39

What's her child's name? Moody? Oh, that I have no idea.

Speaker 2 2:42

We need to move on, but during.

Speaker 4 2:43

Yeah, okay, okay. Anyway, we're going to talk about the assassination attempt, thank you. Do we want to talk about no, no no Major historical event.

Speaker 3 2:53

Yes, we have to address it. We have to.

Speaker 1 2:55

We're usually not a political conversation.

Speaker 2 2:58

They want to hear from us.

Speaker 4 2:59

They want to hear, they're waiting.

Speaker 3 3:05

They're on pins and needles. New York commentary let's hear it Go ahead. The first thing that's amazing is that everyone that is in support of Donald Trump is now walking around with a maxi pad taped to their ear.

Speaker 1 3:15

It's the pillow from the pillow guy. It's the pillow guy.

Speaker 4 3:18

Yeah, the MyPillow guy is making that the.

Speaker 1 3:19

MyPillow guy made these little things. He didn't, but that's what it looks like. Made these little things he didn't.

Speaker 3 3:24

That's what it looks like. Hot takes you go first.

Speaker 1 3:25

Let's hear it Donald Trump took that bullet. He took a bullet. It did hit him. It did hit him, as if it like I don't know how everything just aligns for him.

Speaker 4 3:39

Literally.

Speaker 1 3:42

I don't know how everything aligns for him between his court case, which was the best political campaign that has ever happened for any president. He's in New York, a state that's not a Republican state, and he's coming out of court and connecting and bonding with coffee salesmen from the carts, from going into delis and going into, and whoever loved him loves him even more and who I the pictures of him with his fist in the air and the blood coming down his face, I mean.

Speaker 2 4:14

Bravo, bravo we no, no you give you like him or not, you gotta give credit where credit's due.

Speaker 1 4:22

Editorial iconic, iconic it's a historical picture, historical moment he knows when credit's due. Editorial Iconic Editorial Iconic, iconic, iconic. It's a historical picture historical moment.

Speaker 2 4:28

He knows his angles.

Speaker 4 4:29

He knows his angles. That mugshot girl, the little pouty face mugshot, the mugshot he has it looks like James Dean.

Speaker 1 4:36

It's a James Dean. You know the hardest thing that, leo. One of the hardest things in comedy besides travel is the promo pictures Leo puts on the date. We're doing promo pictures for your next tour and it's like I'm like oh, it's literally like a 15-hour flight somewhere. You go with suits, you get dressed, they put makeup on you and you're doing hey and huh and huh and eh, and Leo knows how to direct me so I don't look like an idiot. Whoever directed Donald Trump for that mugshot, bravo, do you?

Speaker 3 5:10

think he has a secret gay.

Speaker 4 5:12

I think he must have there has to be Because Melania at the RNC. It's called the RNC exactly, by the way during the RNC, if you looked and there was a video going around TikTok of someone in the stadium where the RNC was being held on Grindr, just swiping through like zero feet away, zero feet away, zero feet away. Like all blank profiles of just like closeted people, but Melania looked amazing.

Speaker 1 5:39

Melania wow, wow, wow, wow wow.

Speaker 4 5:42

She looked great, she looked insane. I do want to talk about something, and it's not an opinion, it's just kind of like I kind of talked about it with you this morning. Yeah, is that something I'm trying to parse out and figure out? You posted a clip from the Comedy Cellar. We were talking about Kamala Harris and you didn't say anything pro-Kamala or anti-Kamala. You were very neutral, you, and you didn't say anything pro Kamala or anti Kamala. You were very neutral. You were more just talking about it in general, the fact that the news happened.

Speaker 3 6:09

That was funny.

Speaker 4 6:09

People weighed in both sides, being like I can't believe you support Trump and this and that, and then also like the other way, like they just construed it, however they wanted to construe it, even though you didn't like say anything really. And then something that keeps popping up is, like you know, jewish people and you guys will have to help me walk through this as someone who's not jewish, please. You know, keep hopping in, being like you know, the democratic party is the worst thing that could happen to the jewish people blah, blah, blah, blah. And then, like, another jewish person will comment on their comment and say, oh well, she must really hate her jewish husband then. So then it becomes this idea of, like the candidates, proximity to judas, judaism, you know, like for.

Speaker 4 6:47

So, like trump, they're like, oh, neo-nazis and white supremacists love him, but his daughter's a jew and he's good for israel. So it's like so there's the trump jews. And then there's the jews who are, like you know, super kamala or whoever's going to be the candidate, and their whole thing is like oh well, the democratic party may be, you know, iffy on israel, but she's going to be the candidate, and their whole thing is like oh well, the democratic party may be, you know iffy on israel, but she's married to a jew, so she's okay. Do you see what I'm saying?

Speaker 4 7:11

yeah, it's like personal proximity to judaism and how it like affects so she has a house, she kamala.

Speaker 1 7:19

kamala has a husband who's jewish, and and trump has a husband who's Jewish, and Trump has a daughter who's Jewish. So Trump has, in the White House, seen somebody do negelwasser before making hamotzi on challah. That's a part of his vision. And then there's nonstop, every Jewish holiday, you see Kamala's husband at a Seder or lighting a menorah or doing all of that. Okay, that they have equal. They both have Jews in their lives.

Speaker 4 7:54

What's interesting is seeing how Jewish people choose to interpret that Right.

Speaker 2 8:00

It's neutral, it's a neutral reality, and then you perceive it, and then you you project it in the way that you think, if it's, if you're against her, so then it's a point against her well, I think people's, I think jewish people's problem with the democratic party was like that they wanted to pull out a lot of support for Israel.

Speaker 1 8:22

right, right and yeah Go ahead, which I, by the way. Everybody just says whatever they want, now Nothing. There is no truth to anything being said by anybody. We watched we in our house, at the same spot on our sofa where we watch rupaul's drag race religiously, both leo and I in clean baby. Oh, people loved that. Keep going, clean baby. Leo took his shower, had his smoothie I was sitting there I try not to lay down so I don't get tired and I can still get to sleep and we watched from the beginning to the end of Donald Trump's speak at the RNC.

Speaker 1 9:12

And at one point I literally remember Leo like this going. Like this he goes, I'm in.

Speaker 3 9:19

I got it. No, no.

Speaker 1 9:21

I'm mesmerized, he goes. I am completely mesmerized. This is, I'm in, I go, I get it, someone get me a Mac and a half.

Speaker 4 9:29

There was nothing, there's nothing there that has any credential to any.

Speaker 1 9:35

Trillions of millions were lost and because of Biden, and he's funny, and it's funny, he's funny, and I'm thinking in my mind. I mind, I'm thinking okay, there's a speech. When he was on the speech, whoever wrote it did an amazing job. But whoever is moving the speech along has to stop when he goes on the rants oh, the prompt and then has to make sure that the rant doesn't have something that's coming up so they might have to move it up forward. What a hard job that is. But he went and kissed the helmet of the firefighter.

Speaker 2 10:14

He went and he the theatrics. His voice also is very meditative. He's a showman.

Speaker 1 10:19

They tried to shoot me.

Speaker 2 10:21

This was like Malava Malka voice.

Speaker 1 10:23

Malava Malka. What is your view?

Speaker 4 10:27

on this, because you're a little wasted line if nobody gets it. I want to hear Periel's thought. Hold on. I want this clip in there.

Speaker 1 10:34

Donald Trump spoke in Malava Malka voice during the office.

Speaker 3 10:37

What is that? I don't even know what that means.

Speaker 1 10:39

I'll tell you what Malava Malka is. Okay, so Shabbat has, you know. You wake up Friday night. You have Friday night. You go to synagogue. You come home, you're hungry. There's a meal. The whole day is gone. You just sang these beautiful songs in synagogue. You can't wait to eat. Then, saturday morning, you wake up, you go to synagogue, there's the prayers, and now you're hungry. There's a beautiful meal. You're hungry, you're ready to eat prayers, and you're now. You're hungry, there's a beautiful meal. You're hungry, you're ready to eat. Now you're full. You go home, you take a little nap, you come back to synagogue. You come back to synagogue and there's the third meal. It's called sudachli shudus and it's called, and it's. And then and you sit there like when is this ending? And now someone makes a dvar torah. And they're like when is this ending? And now someone makes a Dvar.

Speaker 2 11:27

Torah and they're like, and that's kind of like how he was Right. It's like end of so. Malavumalka is really after Shabbat.

Speaker 1 11:31

You can cut this out if you want. It's the fourth meal, it's the third meal. Whatever, it doesn't matter. No, that Shalashudis is the third meal, malavumalka is the fourth.

Speaker 4 11:41

Okay, so just tired and out of it you can cut that whole thing out. Okay, okay, I'm glad we stopped for that. That was great Sorry.

Speaker 3 11:48

All right, the million dollar real question is no million dollars.

Speaker 1 11:51

She's already putting a price on this question. This better be amazing.

Speaker 3 11:54

Big time scratch, go ahead. Is Donald Trump going to be able to make peace in the Middle East? Who the hell knows.

Speaker 2 12:07

Well, I don't know. Okay, can I say something?

Speaker 3 12:09

That I think there has been such division between the Democrats and the Republicans with Jews. The Jews have historically been almost full force Democrats.

Speaker 2 12:22

Okay.

Speaker 3 12:23

Right, and now, since october 7th, you have seen a very serious fraction in that right and a lot of jews are saying that the democrats are pandering to far, far left wing samad hamas sympathists um, which are different than reasonable liberals, to be very clear about that, and that's the question Like they have lost a lot of support.

Speaker 4 12:56

I guess I'm curious to see how I feel like a lot of voters are being pigeonholed and forced into being single issue voters. Yeah, they are Now it just boils down because I'm not Jewish. So I have the privilege of you know, thinking, considering other parts of the platform, but if I was Jewish I would only vote on Israel, basically right, I mean no, because there are other things that there's.

Speaker 1 13:22

I don't know. I'm Jewish, I'm gay, I'm gay.

Speaker 3 13:26

You want to have an abortion. If you want to have an abortion, you want other people to be able. I mean, there's women's rights, there's education, there's gay rights, and, of course, it's not just Israel though.

Speaker 2 13:37

It's Western civilization, it's anti-Semitism, it's really allyship is, is really fragile and it's really like intertwined and it's and it's complicated. Here we have the guy who is so good for Israel, purportedly, who's also the same person who's going to be so bad for women's rights and for gay rights, and so, and that's what we're, that's absolutely what we're seeing now. We've now conflated being good to Israel with being anti-gay, and that's how we're in this mess on college campuses. It's how every progressive that we would have loved before this is now against us.

Speaker 1 14:12

What Modi said is true Again. This is a comedian, this is a comical podcast, and I know we went into politics, so, on a level of a comedian's thought like this the world is run by maniacs right now, yeah, but the world is run by Putin is a complete nut job crazy person. The guy in China is Mr Get some tight also. He's also completely crazy. The guy the, the, the.

Speaker 3 14:40

North Korea.

Speaker 1 14:41

North Korea, trump is saying hi, you haven't seen crazy yet I will show you a level of crazy that will scare the crap out of all of you and put you all in line. Iran, you're running under crazy of religion. I will hold this bible up and get this country into a frenzy that you have never even imagined, but I don't want to live in that we don't want that kind of escalation but you don't want that.

Speaker 1 15:12

But you also need to have somebody in that white house who I'm not, I'm not, I'm not, uh, anything, but I'm just saying that people are thinking like that too. We need to have our crazy in there he's right.

Speaker 3 15:26

I mean I am right, because when, who are those lunatics going to take seriously?

Speaker 1 15:31

another lunatic, another lunatic. So this guy's crazier than we are.

Speaker 2 15:36

We used to this car, my friends and I used to have this slogan of Kampfmischiger, mitmischiger, you fight crazy with crazy.

Speaker 1 15:45

You can't fight crazy with. Joe Biden is a neshama. He's a soul. He's a soul. Listen to his old speeches. He's a soul, but that's not what we need.

Speaker 4 15:59

I think history is going to remember him very well for deciding to drop out Joe Biden.

Speaker 1 16:05

Yes, 100%, even if Trump wins again or whatever.

Speaker 4 16:09

This or that. I think they're like. This is a man who served his country for like decades.

Speaker 2 16:14

Terrible life. He had a terrible life, terrible life.

Speaker 4 16:17

Tragedy in his life.

Speaker 1 16:18

Lost a son All that.

Speaker 2 16:19

No no.

Speaker 4 16:20

And did great things for gays, for women, for no he did flip-flop on issues as time went on, but that's normal if you're a career politician, Right so like. But he's too old.

Speaker 1 16:32

Yeah, of course.

Speaker 4 16:33

Of course. And you wouldn't let him drive home at night from a restaurant who shouldn't be? Able to run the country 100%.

Speaker 3 16:41

He was like my grandfather when he hit the homeless man's shopping cart and didn't even notice and just kept driving.

Speaker 2 16:49

But that's a point that goes both ways. Also, we like to say oh Biden, he's not great for this, but the people around him know how to run a government, and so then we could say the same thing about Trump. His personality and his criminal record might not be something that we feel much affection for, but the people around him might be able to govern effectively. No, the problem is this.

Speaker 3 17:12

The problem is and this is not my opinion I'm taking this because I get to sit in on these shows with Noam who's? Talking.

Speaker 3 17:20

These are like the great minds who are saying that everybody who worked with Trump at the highest level is saying do not ever give this guy the keys to the White House again um, that having been said, I really, really and I'm not endorsing him, so nobody get it twisted but I really do think that that photo that Leo was talking about, with the hand and the blood, this guy is winning this election.

Speaker 4 17:50

I mean Mark Zuckerberg said in an interview. It was the founder of Facebook said in an interview that was the most badass picture he's ever seen, ever and Elon.

Speaker 1 18:00

Muskk who runs twitter x, he's got full, maga he's full and maga and let me tell you what an amazing line he had in that speech. He goes they're anti-maga. Maga means make america great, they're anti-making america great. I was like where did he pull? It's literally on the level of bring your friends to the comedy show that's Mashiach energy. We listen to anybody listening to this podcast. We are not casting our votes for anybody.

Speaker 4 18:33

Yeah, I'm scared of both of them, I'm not.

Speaker 1 18:35

Yeah, I just don't know what's.

Speaker 3 18:39

Today, today, but then again, luckily, I do don't know what's Today, today, but then again, luckily.

Speaker 1 18:43

I do believe in God. I do believe that the right person will land in there. I do believe that the country you get what you are.

Speaker 1 18:52

But if you get what you are. Let me tell you, we were this weekend up in Hudson, New York. We have a friend whose name is like Chewie Jew, Jew Jew. It's like literally it might as well be Ben Horowitz, Benjamin Horowitz, it's such a Jewish name and he's a gay guy that bought a house on a lake and there's the lake in front of him. He has a little dock, so he has two jet skis and a platoon boat, Pantoon, Pantoon boat, a pantoon boat. Next to him, the dock. Next to him is the pontoon boat with all the trump flags flying, but like in every color, white background with blue trump, blue background with white trump, red with blue blue with red all over the boat. Wow, he's next door, next door to Yachiyachovitz. He's right there and like that's welcome to America. Do they get? I bet you. They're like hey, how are you?

Speaker 4 19:57

Good, how are you?

Speaker 1 19:59

Are you using the garden we recommended to you? Good for you. But he's got the Trump going up and he's got the this.

Speaker 3 20:04

There's a strategy here too. Right Like this morning, I was reading the news and you know there's been this whole debacle and I think what you said is so true. People are saying anything, they could say anything, it doesn't matter.

Speaker 2 20:17

None of it's true.

Speaker 4 20:18

Making up acronyms.

Speaker 3 20:31

Kamala said that she's not meeting with Netanyahu, which wasn't true in all of this. But in the midst of all of this, donald trump released a message that he had gotten from mamoud habas, who had sent him a note saying he was glad that he was okay after he got shot. And what did the note say? It said mamoud so sweet, thank you for worrying about me and hoping that I feel better. I'm very much looking forward to making peace in the region. And he's releasing this before he's announcing that he is going to meet with Netanyahu, which is insane. So now this guy is putting on his political platform that under his presidency, he is going to be the one to make peace in the Middle East.

Speaker 1 21:16

Again, I don't know what to tell you. It's insane that the Jews are. You cannot, you can't. The Jews, as small as we are, you have to take care of the Jews. They've been around forever and anybody that ever went against them did not do well. They did not end up well, and that's it's a thing.

Speaker 4 21:47

It's a thing he hopped because his it's like if he loses the vote they're gonna just do another insurrection again.

Speaker 1 21:55

I I'm so. I hope whoever wins wins by a landslide no matter how, even if it's a landslide, he's gonna say it was rigged even if he, even if he loses the, the, the, the election, he still knows that he has an army behind him and I don't know what he's going to do. But what can I tell you? You have to believe there is a God and you have to believe that, and again, by God, there's an energy of oneness, of unity, and that's trying to get us to where we need to be.

Speaker 3 22:28

You're putting a lot of faith in that. Huh yeah, I put a lot of faith.

Speaker 1 22:32

Every day I wake up in the morning, I put faith in that. Every day in the morning, God put me up. God, the energy of oneness and unity put me alive today to create a little more Mashiach energy. I put a lot of faith in that. I put a lot of faith in that.

Speaker 3 22:46

Well, I hope you're right?

Speaker 2 22:47

Do we like Kamala? Is it Kamala, kamala? We still don't know Kabbalah.

Speaker 4 22:51

That was the joke that he posted about the seller. It was like whether or not he was mispronouncing her name. I said her name and then everyone took it as like an endorsement.

Speaker 1 23:02

And the room went mashuggah. Yeah, the room. I said it Kamala, kamala, it's Kamala, it's Kamala, what are you?

Speaker 3 23:10

Kamala, you think you just fell out of a coconut tree.

Speaker 1 23:13

Now I remember it as Kamala, because she looks like she's on some serious benzoids that are just calming her down. So Kamala, that's how I remember it. Now she's listen. If you look at that, she's been a whatever if you look at that, she's been a.

Speaker 4 23:32

Whatever she, the reason why I think she could win is because of the way I see gen z, who are now voters yep, uh, reacting to her campaign on tiktok and instagram and twitter etc. She changed her twitter header kamala harris's official campaign twitter yeah, changed it to the charlie xcx album art. Charlie xx is a british pop star who is like very big right now with the kids and changed it to say from the album art. She changed it to say kamala 2024. Right, and like all the kids are doing like the memes with it. They're like remixing her speeches with like pop songs.

Speaker 4 24:08

I'm like, and these kids are voters now, like they are rapping so brat is the name of charlie xcx's last album that came out this summer. Um, it's called brat. Brat means, uh, you know, a girl who likes to have fun, doesn't play by the rules, whatever. That's what charlie said in an, and it's funny because Fox and Friends and CNN have both had sit-down like talking head discussions about what brat means.

Speaker 4 24:33

Because, CharlieXCX tweeted when Kamala announced, when this whole thing went down. She tweeted Kamala is brat in all caps, b-r-a-t. And so now CNN and Fox News have this sit-around and it went viral. And then CNN and Fox News had to sit around and be like what does this mean? And they had to get some young person to come on and be like Also the coconut. Oh yeah, the coconut tree. Have you heard about the coconut tree? Oh my God.

Speaker 1 24:58

By the way, last night I dropped it at the comics table and no one knew.

Speaker 4 25:01

No it's a thing. It's a gay thing. I think it's a gay. There's a party tonight at city winery called coconuts for kamala. It's a dance party fundraiser.

Speaker 2 25:13

It's a thing what does it mean?

Speaker 4 25:13

so she made this unhinged speech again. She's on some combination of like mood stabilizers or benzos or something, because when she speaks sometimes it doesn't make sense. But she was at this event. I showed you the video where she she goes, you something, something. You think you just fell out of a coconut tree. You exist in the context of all that came before you and people just took that line.

Speaker 3 25:37

You can go on tiktok go on tiktok search coconut tree.

Speaker 4 25:41

Search coconut tree, kamala harris on google. You'll see. It's a thing, it's trending, it's like I'm telling you tonight in new york city at city winery, there's a dance party fundraiser for kamala called coconuts for kamala. And it's a thing, it's trending, it's like I'm telling you, tonight in new york city at city winery, there's a dance party fundraiser for kamala called coconuts for kamala and it's like a tropical luau theme.

Speaker 1 25:55

I said she, she's not. I hope she gets the speech thing done. Trump gets up there and let me tell you something as somebody who has spoken and performed in one of these political situations with the cameras and the red, white and blue, the press box, the press box, the entire back of the room is people tweeting your jokes. As you're saying them, there is a high, there is an insane high. Your adrenaline is flying. You can't get. When you get that joke, it wants you to the next high of the next joke. Trump has it, he loves it. I don't think she does. I don't see her Maybe she might change.

Speaker 3 26:40

I hope she's amazing. I really genuinely hope that she is amazing.

Speaker 4 26:49

Who do you think she's going to pick as her VP, by the way?

Speaker 1 26:50

on that same note, our friend Matt Brooks spoke at the Republican convention and he had that run. He got two big jobs. When you do those conventions they rate you on the applause breaks. He had two right up front and you could see in his eyes. Here's the high. He looked like a crackhead High more. I want more applause breaks and you're working for the applause breaks, taylor.

Speaker 3 27:21

Speaker 2 30:39

Yeah, we made those yarmulkes before it stopped being funny. Yeah, you did, you did. Yeah, wait, the uh, the assassination attempt though the uh, you said it all lined up. Do you have like conspiracy theory friends that are going crazy on this topic?

Speaker 3 30:58

I have no conspiracy theory leo, I am.

Speaker 4 31:01

Are you a theory friend on this particular thing?

Speaker 3 31:04

you know what you think? It's like a glass, are you?

Speaker 4 31:07

asking in terms of like is it a deep state inside job?

Speaker 2 31:10

yeah, anything. I mean, what's your theory I?

Speaker 4 31:12

think it was a fuck up. I think it was a really big oversight how, how I just think it was. I think something fell through the cracks. I don't think it was like, because people are saying it was like some deep state thing trying to take him out they said it took forever for the Secret Service to get that guy who shot him.

Speaker 1 31:32

They got him right away.

Speaker 3 31:34

No, they had told him, someone fell off a roof. Yeah, they were like there's a guy on a roof and they were like ah.

Speaker 4 31:43

Yeah well, the director of the Secret Service resigned. I don't know he got to that roof.

Speaker 1 31:47

If you see the picture of the kid, he's white and has all his teeth, which means he can go anywhere in the world he wants. Okay, so he got to that roof by just getting on that roof.

Speaker 2 31:57

And if he looks weird, he's amongst the biggest Mishugan in the country.

Speaker 1 32:03

He's amongst the craziest people on earth, and so he just. I'm going to go on the roof and wash him. Do you want to know my?

Speaker 4 32:09

latest conspiracy theory yeah and this is something that no one put in my brain. This is something I put together on my own oh, by yourself okay, no, all right at the gym yes, when they're playing on those tv screens above the treadmills.

Speaker 4 32:23

What are they advertising lately? Like hardcore, like really pushing, making a push for this. Full body deodorants oh, full body deodorant sprays, full body deodorant roll-ons. I even saw on my instagram a full body deodorant pill that you take every day to help deodorize your like sweat glands or something. Wow, okay, now let's break this down. A full body and and they show in the commercial a girl in a, in a towel, yeah, and she like cheekily, like sprays under her crotch, like it's for everywhere oh, okay so now let's break this down.

Speaker 4 32:59

This is not new technology. Aerosol deodorant okay. Aerosol cosmetics farm, whatever. This has been around for a while. So this is not a breakthrough in technology we're experiencing. So why are they making this hard line push for full body deodorant? This is because they're going to start rationing the water. The water is going to be rationed, they're going to start controlling it and they're maybe not now or next year or the year after that, but they're.

Speaker 2 33:25

It's a psychological thing that they're prepping us to get ready for and you don't think they're just targeting people in the gym who might be a little smelly?

Speaker 4 33:33

No, because no. These ads are everywhere and you're going to start noticing them.

Speaker 1 33:37

No, no, at the gym I don't watch television, I don't watch news. If I'm at a certain gym and luckily the gym that I go to the Equinox doesn't have the screens but when I do go to an Equinox it does have the screens. So now you're jogging or running or doing whatever you're doing, and all you see is they have MSNBC, fox, they have CNN and all it looks like. It all looks like, because I'm not listening to it. It all looks like Trump has already won the election. That's what it looks like. And then you have the ads for the catheters and for all the stuff full body deodorant what is that? Did you?

Speaker 4 34:13

watch the big short about the housing crisis that was based on a true story. Did you watch that?

Speaker 4 34:17

oh my god, amazing what like that, like when the awesome, the best picture of the year or something that year. At the end of the movie it says based on a true story, bubble, and it talks about the analyst or the guy who you know like, basically predicted the 2008 crash. And it says, you know, as the credits are starting to roll, they do one of those like black title screens with some text and goes, oh and, by the way, this is based on a true story and the person who figured all this out says the next incoming crisis is a water supply shortage.

Speaker 4 34:43

Oh, my God and he's investing all in it and has invested all his money in water.

Speaker 1 34:46

Luckily, Israel has figured a way to take salt water from the ocean and make it to drinking water.

Speaker 3 34:51

Yes, I believe you just because it's you.

Speaker 1 34:54

Maybe not today Maybe not tomorrow.

Speaker 2 34:55

What's your favorite conspiracy theory Did?

Speaker 3 34:58

Jeffrey. Epstein kill himself.

Speaker 4 35:00

No, absolutely not. If anyone thinks Jeffrey Epstein actually killed himself.

Speaker 1 35:04

Speaker 4 35:16

I think the CIA killed John F Kennedy.

Speaker 2 35:17

Oh, I think it was the mob for the CIA.

Speaker 4 35:24

I think someone that was an inside job and I think. I'm starting to think no, I think we didn't.

Speaker 3 35:30

I'm starting to think no, there's no way.

Speaker 4 35:33
