00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:08.460
 Hello from Baehr and Curadh, a podcast from the Land of Awes Information Services.

2
00:00:19.539 --> 00:00:20.719
 I love you, Curadh.

3
00:00:20.719 --> 00:00:21.559
 I love you, Baehr.

4
00:00:21.559 --> 00:00:25.559
 This is episode 161 of the Baeht and Curadh podcast.

5
00:00:25.559 --> 00:00:28.019
 We're going to talk about flushbunking.

6
00:00:28.019 --> 00:00:28.739
 Okay.

7
00:00:28.739 --> 00:00:31.839
 Charlie Kirk, submit to your husband, Taylor Swift.

8
00:00:31.839 --> 00:00:38.619
 Framing his remarks as congratulations, Kirk said at his Real American Voice channel,

9
00:00:38.619 --> 00:00:46.339
 This is something that I hope will make Taylor Swift more conservative, engage in reality more, reject feminism.

10
00:00:47.039 --> 00:00:48.459
 Submit to your husband, Taylor.

11
00:00:48.459 --> 00:00:49.699
 You're not in charge.

12
00:00:49.699 --> 00:00:51.759
 Jesus Christ.

13
00:00:51.759 --> 00:00:53.299
 That's what they want.

14
00:00:53.299 --> 00:00:55.659
 They want America to be like this again.

15
00:00:55.659 --> 00:00:58.879
 They want it to be housewives that just stay home and be quiet.

16
00:00:58.879 --> 00:01:06.859
 But you can't tell that to one of the most, probably the most popular woman in the world just because she got engaged to another, just because she's getting married.

17
00:01:06.859 --> 00:01:10.659
 Do you think this will ingratiate him with her fans?

18
00:01:10.659 --> 00:01:11.299
 No.

19
00:01:11.299 --> 00:01:12.039
 No.

20
00:01:12.039 --> 00:01:16.859
 She's all about feminism and about women's rights and doing the right thing and stuff like that.

21
00:01:16.859 --> 00:01:26.479
 So she's going to stand firm on her beliefs even more, which will make her friends proud.

22
00:01:26.479 --> 00:01:28.459
 So he's an idiot anyway.

23
00:01:28.459 --> 00:01:33.859
 I'm not surprised by the blather that comes out of his mouth anymore.

24
00:01:33.859 --> 00:01:38.959
 And in this case, it's probably not for wanting 15 more minutes of fame.

25
00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:40.799
 It's probably just stupidity.

26
00:01:40.799 --> 00:01:42.059
 Yeah, exactly.

27
00:01:42.059 --> 00:01:42.939
 Yeah.

28
00:01:42.939 --> 00:01:43.959
 Sullyness.

29
00:01:43.959 --> 00:01:46.839
 This is what people like him want.

30
00:01:47.799 --> 00:01:47.999
 Yeah.

31
00:01:47.999 --> 00:01:48.759
 Yeah.

32
00:01:48.759 --> 00:01:52.599
 The evangelicals and, yeah, everything, every one of them.

33
00:01:52.599 --> 00:01:56.279
 So people who think that they're not coming after them, be ready.

34
00:01:56.279 --> 00:01:57.419
 They will be after you.

35
00:01:57.419 --> 00:02:04.219
 So if you don't fit in their little mold of little husband and wife Christian family, you're out of the loop.

36
00:02:04.219 --> 00:02:06.959
 There's a lot more people that are going to be screwed over than people think.

37
00:02:06.959 --> 00:02:07.619
 Yeah.

38
00:02:07.619 --> 00:02:12.899
 Those who think maybe they'll be happy if they only go after the transgendered.

39
00:02:12.899 --> 00:02:16.719
 They're all wrong because it just, it starts there.

40
00:02:16.719 --> 00:02:17.719
 And then it just steamrolls.

41
00:02:17.719 --> 00:02:18.979
 Mm-hmm.

42
00:02:18.979 --> 00:02:27.859
 And it seems telling to me that public figures like this are willing to say whatever they think.

43
00:02:27.859 --> 00:02:28.579
 Mm-hmm.

44
00:02:28.579 --> 00:02:34.599
 I mean, there was a time when you would at least consider the ramifications of what you would say.

45
00:02:34.599 --> 00:02:34.979
 Yeah.

46
00:02:34.979 --> 00:02:35.659
 Yeah.

47
00:02:35.659 --> 00:02:39.319
 Right now in this America, they can get away with stuff like this.

48
00:02:39.319 --> 00:02:40.919
 And I guess, you know, it's free speech.

49
00:02:40.919 --> 00:02:42.059
 You can say whatever he wants.

50
00:02:42.059 --> 00:02:46.639
 But it doesn't mean I need to stand by and listen to him.

51
00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:48.299
 I'm not giving my two sons up about it.

52
00:02:48.299 --> 00:02:53.919
 There are millions of Taylor Swift fans that do not agree with him.

53
00:02:53.919 --> 00:02:54.619
 Oh, I know.

54
00:02:54.619 --> 00:02:55.319
 Yeah.

55
00:02:55.319 --> 00:02:58.079
 But I don't think one Taylor Swift fan is going to agree with him.

56
00:02:58.079 --> 00:02:58.639
 Hmm.

57
00:02:58.639 --> 00:03:07.339
 So, U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy said windmills are wiping out the whale population.

58
00:03:07.339 --> 00:03:09.559
 You said that with a question mark.

59
00:03:09.559 --> 00:03:10.739
 Yes, I know I did.

60
00:03:10.739 --> 00:03:13.239
 You couldn't believe it when you read it.

61
00:03:13.239 --> 00:03:14.139
 When I'm reading, yes.

62
00:03:14.139 --> 00:03:16.619
 Well, I can't believe half the things he says and does.

63
00:03:16.619 --> 00:03:18.259
 I can't believe him.

64
00:03:18.259 --> 00:03:19.059
 Hmm.

65
00:03:19.059 --> 00:03:22.359
 So, what a shame to a good name.

66
00:03:22.359 --> 00:03:36.939
 The revelation during a meeting of President Donald Trump's cabinet demonstrates a full-throated effort by his administration to undermine an industry that was central to former President Joe Biden's climate and energy agendas.

67
00:03:36.939 --> 00:03:37.659
 Hmm.

68
00:03:37.659 --> 00:03:45.619
 Which, I don't know, that synopsis sounds just as, I don't know, bigoted as the comment.

69
00:03:45.619 --> 00:03:46.399
 It's a comment.

70
00:03:46.399 --> 00:03:47.019
 Yeah.

71
00:03:47.019 --> 00:03:51.399
 It's not another big surprise by this administration.

72
00:03:51.399 --> 00:03:55.799
 And it's anything that Biden did, he wants to reverse.

73
00:03:55.799 --> 00:03:56.399
 Yes.

74
00:03:56.399 --> 00:03:57.159
 Anything.

75
00:03:57.159 --> 00:03:58.539
 It doesn't matter.

76
00:03:58.539 --> 00:04:03.059
 We give Donald Trump a million dollars and nope.

77
00:04:03.059 --> 00:04:04.259
 You know what I mean?

78
00:04:04.259 --> 00:04:07.239
 It's anything that he's done, he wants to reverse.

79
00:04:07.239 --> 00:04:15.239
 And these people that are, the only word I can think of is an absentee.

80
00:04:15.239 --> 00:04:16.459
 The absentee.

81
00:04:16.459 --> 00:04:16.899
 Mm-hmm.

82
00:04:16.899 --> 00:04:20.499
 Um, that will just do whatever Trump says.

83
00:04:20.499 --> 00:04:21.099
 Mm-hmm.

84
00:04:21.099 --> 00:04:22.099
 They're sheep.

85
00:04:22.099 --> 00:04:26.039
 They're, um, there's proof that you should not be doing that.

86
00:04:26.039 --> 00:04:28.179
 And it was called the Nuremberg Trials.

87
00:04:28.179 --> 00:04:28.679
 Mm-hmm.

88
00:04:28.679 --> 00:04:29.239
 Yeah.

89
00:04:29.239 --> 00:04:29.979
 Yeah.

90
00:04:29.979 --> 00:04:30.919
 Pretty big thing.

91
00:04:30.919 --> 00:04:31.359
 Mm-hmm.

92
00:04:31.359 --> 00:04:32.219
 If I recall correctly.

93
00:04:32.219 --> 00:04:32.579
 Yeah.

94
00:04:32.579 --> 00:04:33.259
 Yeah.

95
00:04:33.259 --> 00:04:37.299
 The whole war, war with who, um, yeah, the Holocaust.

96
00:04:37.299 --> 00:04:37.999
 Mm-hmm.

97
00:04:37.999 --> 00:04:38.939
 Um, yeah.

98
00:04:38.939 --> 00:04:40.099
 Quite a bit.

99
00:04:40.099 --> 00:04:40.779
 So.

100
00:04:40.779 --> 00:04:42.479
 So, I don't know.

101
00:04:42.479 --> 00:04:45.099
 Maybe we can hope that they'll get their justice.

102
00:04:45.099 --> 00:04:46.239
 Justice in the end.

103
00:04:46.239 --> 00:04:47.499
 But I don't know.

104
00:04:47.499 --> 00:04:49.859
 Will we live long enough to see it?

105
00:04:49.859 --> 00:04:51.139
 That's a good question.

106
00:04:51.139 --> 00:04:52.179
 I don't know.

107
00:04:52.179 --> 00:04:53.119
 We can hope.

108
00:04:53.119 --> 00:04:53.759
 Mm.

109
00:04:53.759 --> 00:04:54.619
 Okay.

110
00:04:54.619 --> 00:04:56.299
 Wait to read the room.

111
00:04:56.299 --> 00:05:02.639
 As the country grapples with another mass shooting, gun advocates petition the Supreme

112
00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:07.519
 Court to loosen restrictions on weapons that have become synonymous with such tragedies.

113
00:05:07.519 --> 00:05:08.779
 Wow.

114
00:05:08.779 --> 00:05:12.999
 The listeners can't see you shake your head.

115
00:05:12.999 --> 00:05:13.739
 Yeah, I know.

116
00:05:13.739 --> 00:05:14.839
 Um.

117
00:05:14.839 --> 00:05:15.739
 Are you surprised?

118
00:05:15.739 --> 00:05:17.479
 No.

119
00:05:17.479 --> 00:05:20.539
 The timing, I don't know.

120
00:05:20.539 --> 00:05:24.199
 They had to have had this in the works for some time.

121
00:05:24.199 --> 00:05:24.759
 Yeah.

122
00:05:24.759 --> 00:05:28.199
 But, you know, they could have held off a couple of days.

123
00:05:28.199 --> 00:05:29.459
 They don't care.

124
00:05:29.459 --> 00:05:30.859
 Until things settle down.

125
00:05:30.859 --> 00:05:31.419
 Yeah.

126
00:05:31.419 --> 00:05:32.519
 They don't care.

127
00:05:32.519 --> 00:05:33.659
 It's all about them.

128
00:05:33.659 --> 00:05:34.159
 They don't care.

129
00:05:34.159 --> 00:05:35.259
 It's about money, revenue.

130
00:05:35.259 --> 00:05:36.039
 Mm-hmm.

131
00:05:36.039 --> 00:05:36.639
 They don't care.

132
00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:37.879
 It's, so.

133
00:05:37.879 --> 00:05:42.299
 The one good thing is I know working in the pawn business there right now, the AR, the

134
00:05:42.299 --> 00:05:43.679
 AR industry is taking a.

135
00:05:44.239 --> 00:05:46.399
 They're not selling like they used to.

136
00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:47.699
 What a shame.

137
00:05:47.699 --> 00:05:48.239
 I know.

138
00:05:48.239 --> 00:05:49.079
 No, it's good news.

139
00:05:49.079 --> 00:05:50.439
 I know you're being facetious.

140
00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:53.319
 But no, it's, yeah, they're marking them all down.

141
00:05:53.319 --> 00:05:55.319
 They're not holding their value.

142
00:05:55.319 --> 00:05:59.619
 People, a lot of people are buying them for value's sake, which is a bunch of crap.

143
00:05:59.619 --> 00:06:00.939
 Don't tell me you're going to buy a weapon.

144
00:06:00.939 --> 00:06:01.659
 I can imagine.

145
00:06:01.659 --> 00:06:02.919
 Because people's investment.

146
00:06:02.919 --> 00:06:09.679
 I can imagine if it comes close to passing some kind of ban on them, people are going

147
00:06:09.679 --> 00:06:13.279
 to buy them up thinking there'll be a limited resource.

148
00:06:13.279 --> 00:06:13.479
 Yeah.

149
00:06:13.759 --> 00:06:16.999
 And I think that's, they came to the realization that no, they're not going to be a limited

150
00:06:16.999 --> 00:06:20.939
 resource that you can freaking buy them in any, anywhere pretty much, so.

151
00:06:20.939 --> 00:06:22.559
 Can you buy them at Walmart?

152
00:06:22.559 --> 00:06:23.639
 I don't know.

153
00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:26.279
 Probably, probably at Walmart's they'll sell guns.

154
00:06:26.279 --> 00:06:26.919
 Hmm.

155
00:06:26.919 --> 00:06:27.519
 Yeah.

156
00:06:27.519 --> 00:06:28.459
 They're everywhere.

157
00:06:28.459 --> 00:06:29.059
 We have them.

158
00:06:29.059 --> 00:06:31.179
 I handle probably two or three a day.

159
00:06:31.179 --> 00:06:33.379
 It's ridiculous the amount they come in.

160
00:06:33.379 --> 00:06:38.379
 Just how many of these people are going into war zones that they need an assault rifle?

161
00:06:38.379 --> 00:06:39.519
 They don't need any of it.

162
00:06:39.519 --> 00:06:40.439
 They don't need any of it.

163
00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:41.279
 That's what makes me mad.

164
00:06:41.279 --> 00:06:43.279
 I mean, if you're going to use a weapon for.

165
00:06:43.519 --> 00:06:44.899
 In defense, buy a handgun.

166
00:06:44.899 --> 00:06:48.139
 I mean, you don't need an assault rifle.

167
00:06:48.139 --> 00:06:52.439
 No one, no one except military police needs to have those weapons.

168
00:06:52.439 --> 00:06:54.199
 That's, that's in my opinion.

169
00:06:54.199 --> 00:06:58.739
 I mean, they're strictly, and anyone who says that they're, or use it for hunting, then,

170
00:06:58.739 --> 00:06:59.619
 then quit hunting.

171
00:06:59.619 --> 00:07:02.219
 Those, those animals, no, no.

172
00:07:02.219 --> 00:07:02.439
 No.

173
00:07:02.439 --> 00:07:04.159
 They quit hunting because you're not.

174
00:07:04.159 --> 00:07:06.019
 If you want to hunt, hunt with a knife.

175
00:07:06.019 --> 00:07:10.819
 Hunt with a knife or a shotgun or something that will, you know, a rifle, something that's

176
00:07:10.819 --> 00:07:13.039
 not going to tear up the meat and destroy the animal.

177
00:07:13.039 --> 00:07:14.019
 Give them a fair chance.

178
00:07:14.019 --> 00:07:15.039
 Give them a fair chance.

179
00:07:15.039 --> 00:07:15.239
 Yeah.

180
00:07:15.239 --> 00:07:19.099
 It's not something with an assault rifle that is made to kill people.

181
00:07:19.099 --> 00:07:22.079
 That's all it's for is the maids and maim and hurt people.

182
00:07:22.079 --> 00:07:24.519
 The bullets tumble when they hit your body.

183
00:07:24.519 --> 00:07:25.599
 That's what they're made to do.

184
00:07:25.599 --> 00:07:33.079
 So don't come at me with this crap for home defense and nothing scarier than a, than a

185
00:07:33.079 --> 00:07:34.019
 pump shotgun either.

186
00:07:34.019 --> 00:07:34.639
 You know what I mean?

187
00:07:34.639 --> 00:07:38.419
 That's going to scare the crap out of someone who's entering your house in a, in AR.

188
00:07:38.419 --> 00:07:42.599
 So, and then you have people who just buy them and don't know even how to use them and

189
00:07:42.599 --> 00:07:44.419
 that's scary in and of itself.

190
00:07:44.419 --> 00:07:45.099
 Yeah.

191
00:07:45.099 --> 00:07:49.319
 I mean, I don't care for guns, but I did take a gun safety course.

192
00:07:49.319 --> 00:07:49.679
 Yeah.

193
00:07:49.679 --> 00:07:50.299
 Yeah.

194
00:07:50.299 --> 00:07:53.919
 And you'd be amazed with how many people come into my store on a daily basis that don't

195
00:07:53.919 --> 00:07:55.899
 have any idea about gun safety.

196
00:07:55.899 --> 00:07:58.199
 Just, you know, coming in with guns loaded.

197
00:07:58.199 --> 00:08:00.039
 It's, it's, it's amazing.

198
00:08:00.039 --> 00:08:02.859
 So, and then they wonder why I get mad at them.

199
00:08:02.859 --> 00:08:04.399
 I'm like, are you kidding me?

200
00:08:04.399 --> 00:08:06.099
 I've, I've cussed people out before.

201
00:08:06.099 --> 00:08:08.659
 I'm coming to my store with an effing loaded gun.

202
00:08:08.659 --> 00:08:09.699
 What are you, dumb?

203
00:08:09.699 --> 00:08:10.359
 You could have killed somebody.

204
00:08:10.359 --> 00:08:11.359
 I'm like, you could have killed someone.

205
00:08:11.359 --> 00:08:12.499
 And then, then they get mad at me.

206
00:08:12.499 --> 00:08:12.579
 I'm like, you could have killed somebody.

207
00:08:12.579 --> 00:08:13.399
 I'm like, don't get mad at me.

208
00:08:12.579 --> 00:08:12.579
 I'm like, you could have killed somebody.

209
00:08:13.399 --> 00:08:14.379
 Get out of here with your shit.

210
00:08:14.379 --> 00:08:15.679
 And I've told people to leave.

211
00:08:15.679 --> 00:08:17.199
 I'm like, I don't know how I'm going to do business with you.

212
00:08:17.199 --> 00:08:18.259
 You're a moron.

213
00:08:18.259 --> 00:08:22.599
 So, and you've probably seen me do it, or you can see and picture me doing it.

214
00:08:22.599 --> 00:08:23.779
 But yeah, yeah.

215
00:08:23.779 --> 00:08:27.059
 So, so yeah, way to read the room.

216
00:08:27.059 --> 00:08:29.059
 All right.

217
00:08:29.059 --> 00:08:33.059
 And Ray's constituent tells off GOP representative crowd applause.

218
00:08:33.059 --> 00:08:34.479
 Take your head out of Trump's.

219
00:08:34.479 --> 00:08:41.899
 The speaker, an older man and a farmer, blasted representative Mark Alford of Missouri for

220
00:08:41.899 --> 00:08:42.559
 having no idea what he was doing.

221
00:08:42.559 --> 00:08:45.959
 I have no understanding of what it's like for a working class American trying to feed

222
00:08:45.959 --> 00:08:46.559
 their family.

223
00:08:46.559 --> 00:08:48.219
 Very true.

224
00:08:48.219 --> 00:08:53.679
 Probably the source of our problems is when they allowed money to get into politics.

225
00:08:53.679 --> 00:08:54.319
 Mm-hmm.

226
00:08:54.319 --> 00:08:54.999
 Yeah.

227
00:08:54.999 --> 00:08:55.919
 I agree.

228
00:08:55.919 --> 00:09:02.239
 Because, you know, there used to be dollar limits and, and with no way to work around

229
00:09:02.239 --> 00:09:02.539
 them.

230
00:09:02.539 --> 00:09:03.239
 Mm-hmm.

231
00:09:03.239 --> 00:09:04.939
 All of that is just.

232
00:09:04.939 --> 00:09:07.139
 Someone by the wayside.

233
00:09:07.139 --> 00:09:07.659
 Yeah.

234
00:09:07.659 --> 00:09:08.979
 It's just waste.

235
00:09:08.979 --> 00:09:12.539
 Um, it, it, it allows people with the money.

236
00:09:12.539 --> 00:09:14.299
 It allows people with the money to influence politics.

237
00:09:14.299 --> 00:09:14.639
 Mm-hmm.

238
00:09:14.639 --> 00:09:15.859
 Oh, a lot now.

239
00:09:15.859 --> 00:09:16.519
 Mm-hmm.

240
00:09:16.519 --> 00:09:16.959
 A lot.

241
00:09:16.959 --> 00:09:19.019
 I mean, to the point where it's affecting elections.

242
00:09:19.019 --> 00:09:19.879
 Mm-hmm.

243
00:09:19.879 --> 00:09:20.459
 A lot.

244
00:09:20.459 --> 00:09:23.839
 You know, I'm still not 100% sure that he actually won, so.

245
00:09:23.839 --> 00:09:24.779
 Mm-hmm.

246
00:09:24.779 --> 00:09:25.399
 Mm-hmm.

247
00:09:25.399 --> 00:09:28.299
 But I'm not one of those, you know, you've got to deal with the hand that you're dealt,

248
00:09:28.299 --> 00:09:28.899
 so.

249
00:09:28.899 --> 00:09:29.659
 I suppose.

250
00:09:29.659 --> 00:09:32.359
 You know, nothing's going to change.

251
00:09:32.359 --> 00:09:35.679
 I think literally nothing's going to change because I don't think he's going to leave

252
00:09:35.679 --> 00:09:35.979
 office.

253
00:09:35.979 --> 00:09:38.019
 I am, I'm afraid of that too.

254
00:09:38.019 --> 00:09:40.059
 There's some people that really are afraid of it.

255
00:09:40.059 --> 00:09:40.719
 Gavin Newsom.

256
00:09:40.719 --> 00:09:42.259
 I mean, every day he's doing.

257
00:09:42.259 --> 00:09:45.819
 He's doing something a little more inflammatory just to see if he can.

258
00:09:45.819 --> 00:09:46.499
 Mm-hmm.

259
00:09:46.499 --> 00:09:51.459
 Like sending troops to Washington, and now he's talking about in a few days sending them

260
00:09:51.459 --> 00:09:52.059
 to Chicago.

261
00:09:52.059 --> 00:09:52.879
 Oh, really?

262
00:09:52.879 --> 00:09:54.539
 Just to see if he can.

263
00:09:54.539 --> 00:09:55.159
 Wow.

264
00:09:55.159 --> 00:09:56.739
 Just to see if anybody will stop him.

265
00:09:56.739 --> 00:09:58.739
 He's, he's testing martial law.

266
00:09:58.739 --> 00:09:59.159
 Yeah.

267
00:09:59.159 --> 00:10:00.139
 That's what he's doing.

268
00:10:00.139 --> 00:10:01.419
 He's testing martial law.

269
00:10:01.419 --> 00:10:03.979
 With him as the marshal.

270
00:10:03.979 --> 00:10:04.919
 Exactly.

271
00:10:04.919 --> 00:10:10.479
 Trump claims crime is a blue city problem despite red state reality.

272
00:10:10.479 --> 00:10:12.199
 According to Newsweek.

273
00:10:12.239 --> 00:10:19.419
 Out of the 25 most dangerous cities per capita, the vast majority, 18, are in red states.

274
00:10:19.419 --> 00:10:22.539
 Only seven of the 25 are in blue states.

275
00:10:22.539 --> 00:10:23.119
 Yeah.

276
00:10:23.119 --> 00:10:23.839
 Another.

277
00:10:23.839 --> 00:10:25.559
 We were just talking about that.

278
00:10:25.559 --> 00:10:26.119
 Mm-hmm.

279
00:10:26.119 --> 00:10:29.099
 Well, they like to tell you that it's the other way around.

280
00:10:29.099 --> 00:10:29.719
 Mm-hmm.

281
00:10:29.719 --> 00:10:33.079
 That it's, you know, that it's opposite of that.

282
00:10:33.079 --> 00:10:34.159
 I think it's funny.

283
00:10:34.159 --> 00:10:36.199
 Well, how does that go?

284
00:10:36.199 --> 00:10:39.319
 There are lies, and there are damn lies, and then there are politicians.

285
00:10:39.319 --> 00:10:40.179
 Mm-hmm.

286
00:10:40.179 --> 00:10:40.659
 Yeah.

287
00:10:40.659 --> 00:10:41.439
 Yeah.

288
00:10:41.439 --> 00:10:41.559
 Yeah.

289
00:10:41.959 --> 00:10:42.399
 But, yeah.

290
00:10:42.399 --> 00:10:50.739
 So, this thing about taking control of the violence, it's, it's not true.

291
00:10:50.739 --> 00:10:51.379
 Mm-hmm.

292
00:10:51.379 --> 00:10:52.279
 It's just a lie.

293
00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:52.939
 It's another lie.

294
00:10:52.939 --> 00:10:55.919
 It's another lie that's being fabricated by this, by the administration.

295
00:10:55.919 --> 00:11:01.979
 And why aren't, I mean, why isn't the Pentagon saying, you can't do that?

296
00:11:01.979 --> 00:11:04.439
 Because they're all, he's got his minions in the office.

297
00:11:04.439 --> 00:11:05.359
 They're all afraid.

298
00:11:05.359 --> 00:11:07.739
 I mean, no one's safe from them.

299
00:11:07.739 --> 00:11:11.859
 I mean, they do have the right to not.

300
00:11:11.939 --> 00:11:13.739
 Follow an unconstitutional order.

301
00:11:13.739 --> 00:11:14.379
 Yeah.

302
00:11:14.379 --> 00:11:16.319
 But they're all, they're all his minions.

303
00:11:16.319 --> 00:11:17.099
 Mm-hmm.

304
00:11:17.099 --> 00:11:19.419
 You know, they, you know, it's.

305
00:11:19.419 --> 00:11:24.339
 The French Revolution solved that by using the guild team.

306
00:11:24.339 --> 00:11:24.979
 Mm-hmm.

307
00:11:24.979 --> 00:11:25.679
 Yeah.

308
00:11:25.679 --> 00:11:27.779
 God, I think we're coming close to that.

309
00:11:27.779 --> 00:11:28.679
 I hope not.

310
00:11:28.679 --> 00:11:30.239
 That'd be a pretty ugly future.

311
00:11:30.239 --> 00:11:31.139
 Mm.

312
00:11:31.139 --> 00:11:35.579
 The first step of revolution is kill all the lawyers.

313
00:11:35.579 --> 00:11:36.299
 Yeah.

314
00:11:36.299 --> 00:11:37.879
 I know a few that could die.

315
00:11:37.879 --> 00:11:40.799
 All right.

316
00:11:40.799 --> 00:11:41.819
 William Sanders.

317
00:11:41.819 --> 00:11:42.959
 message for gay fans.

318
00:11:42.959 --> 00:11:43.959
 Keep on queering.

319
00:11:43.959 --> 00:11:45.559
 This is a quote from him.

320
00:11:45.559 --> 00:11:51.619
 We all belong to each other, and all of us belong to the rest of existence, the world,

321
00:11:51.619 --> 00:11:52.579
 the universe.

322
00:11:52.579 --> 00:11:58.319
 It also suggests that we are, we are caretakers of our earth, and we must, without question,

323
00:11:58.319 --> 00:12:00.659
 care for the water, the air, the earth.

324
00:12:00.659 --> 00:12:01.219
 Hmm.

325
00:12:01.219 --> 00:12:05.459
 I think his attitude has changed since he went up into space.

326
00:12:05.459 --> 00:12:06.379
 Think so?

327
00:12:06.379 --> 00:12:08.379
 You think you had a moment up there or something?

328
00:12:08.379 --> 00:12:09.319
 Yeah, I do.

329
00:12:09.319 --> 00:12:10.039
 Hmm.

330
00:12:10.039 --> 00:12:10.859
 Interesting.

331
00:12:10.859 --> 00:12:11.799
 He cried.

332
00:12:12.219 --> 00:12:12.559
 Did he?

333
00:12:12.559 --> 00:12:12.979
 Yeah.

334
00:12:12.979 --> 00:12:13.739
 Okay.

335
00:12:13.739 --> 00:12:14.699
 I don't know.

336
00:12:14.699 --> 00:12:15.839
 I don't know that much about him.

337
00:12:15.839 --> 00:12:16.979
 I don't know if he's...

338
00:12:16.979 --> 00:12:23.819
 A lot of astronauts say it's, it's hard to think about politics and boundaries and whatever

339
00:12:23.819 --> 00:12:26.379
 when you look down and you see...

340
00:12:26.379 --> 00:12:27.459
 How small everything looks?

341
00:12:27.459 --> 00:12:29.579
 Yeah, the whole earth in front of you.

342
00:12:29.579 --> 00:12:30.979
 Well, I imagine.

343
00:12:30.979 --> 00:12:32.619
 It'd be amazing to see.

344
00:12:32.619 --> 00:12:33.439
 Yeah.

345
00:12:33.439 --> 00:12:34.299
 So...

346
00:12:34.299 --> 00:12:34.939
 Yeah, it would.

347
00:12:34.939 --> 00:12:36.019
 Would you ever do it?

348
00:12:36.019 --> 00:12:40.499
 William Shatner's never, ever really been known for being prophetic before.

349
00:12:40.499 --> 00:12:40.999
 Okay.

350
00:12:40.999 --> 00:12:41.759
 Hmm.

351
00:12:42.179 --> 00:12:45.899
 I didn't know if he was ever really talked much about in the first place or not, so...

352
00:12:45.899 --> 00:12:49.899
 Uh, specifically talking to gay fans, I don't know that he's done that before.

353
00:12:49.899 --> 00:12:50.539
 Hmm.

354
00:12:50.539 --> 00:12:53.039
 Maybe he's coming around to 2025.

355
00:12:53.039 --> 00:12:53.879
 Hmm.

356
00:12:53.879 --> 00:12:56.239
 So, we, you know, we've only been around forever.

357
00:12:56.239 --> 00:12:58.939
 And he's probably not long for this earth.

358
00:12:58.939 --> 00:12:59.519
 No.

359
00:12:59.519 --> 00:13:00.679
 How old is he now?

360
00:13:00.679 --> 00:13:02.279
 He's gotta be in his 90s.

361
00:13:02.279 --> 00:13:02.979
 That's what I thought.

362
00:13:02.979 --> 00:13:03.599
 Yeah.

363
00:13:03.599 --> 00:13:04.359
 Yeah.

364
00:13:04.359 --> 00:13:06.899
 And then Leonard Nimoy died a few years back, didn't he?

365
00:13:06.899 --> 00:13:08.299
 A long time ago, yeah.

366
00:13:08.299 --> 00:13:08.879
 Yeah.

367
00:13:08.879 --> 00:13:10.619
 And he was pretty old when he died, wasn't he?

368
00:13:10.619 --> 00:13:11.739
 I mean, he had cancer.

369
00:13:11.859 --> 00:13:12.099
 Didn't he?

370
00:13:12.099 --> 00:13:12.919
 He had COPD.

371
00:13:12.919 --> 00:13:13.919
 Said what?

372
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:14.819
 COPD.

373
00:13:14.819 --> 00:13:15.599
 From smoking?

374
00:13:15.599 --> 00:13:16.079
 Mm-hmm.

375
00:13:16.079 --> 00:13:16.539
 Yeah.

376
00:13:16.539 --> 00:13:17.399
 All right.

377
00:13:17.399 --> 00:13:18.599
 All right.

378
00:13:18.599 --> 00:13:21.199
 Trump, I have the right to do anything I want to do.

379
00:13:21.199 --> 00:13:23.359
 I am the President of the United States.

380
00:13:23.359 --> 00:13:27.999
 Trump may be the President, but he doesn't have the right to do anything he wants.

381
00:13:27.999 --> 00:13:32.139
 Years ago, that comment alone would have caused all kinds of havoc.

382
00:13:32.139 --> 00:13:41.459
 But in today's society, which has been desensitized to unconsciousness by an overload of information from a far-right ecosystem,

383
00:13:41.719 --> 00:13:50.659
 the right wing social media influencers and access ambition pundits will probably go over like a thin breeze.

384
00:13:50.659 --> 00:13:51.699
 Mm-hmm.

385
00:13:51.699 --> 00:13:52.939
 Are you surprised?

386
00:13:52.939 --> 00:13:59.239
 He swore an oath to defend the Constitution, and he is not doing that.

387
00:13:59.239 --> 00:13:59.619
 No.

388
00:13:59.619 --> 00:14:02.479
 No, he has no intention of doing it either.

389
00:14:02.479 --> 00:14:03.619
 He hasn't.

390
00:14:03.619 --> 00:14:06.179
 He's in his first term, and he's not going to go into his second term.

391
00:14:06.179 --> 00:14:08.739
 And he's trying to buck the whole system.

392
00:14:08.739 --> 00:14:11.699
 And Christian nationalists are trying to buck the whole system.

393
00:14:11.699 --> 00:14:15.039
 They're trying to rewrite, to say that we are a Christian nation.

394
00:14:15.039 --> 00:14:15.819
 Mm-hmm.

395
00:14:15.819 --> 00:14:17.399
 I don't know.

396
00:14:17.399 --> 00:14:21.179
 Every generation thinks that their generation is the worst.

397
00:14:21.179 --> 00:14:21.859
 Mm-hmm.

398
00:14:21.859 --> 00:14:25.819
 But somehow, humans continue to go on.

399
00:14:25.819 --> 00:14:27.419
 Yeah, you're right.

400
00:14:27.419 --> 00:14:34.179
 At some point, it's got to hit a critical mass, and people will say, we're not going to put up with this anymore.

401
00:14:34.179 --> 00:14:36.919
 Yeah, hopefully for 2028.

402
00:14:36.919 --> 00:14:37.679
 Mm-hmm.

403
00:14:37.679 --> 00:14:39.059
 Hopefully, you know what I mean?

404
00:14:39.059 --> 00:14:41.619
 Because I'm afraid if we don't, then we will.

405
00:14:41.679 --> 00:14:42.919
 We'll have him as president again.

406
00:14:42.919 --> 00:14:43.819
 Mm-hmm.

407
00:14:43.819 --> 00:14:49.319
 I just want to have faith that people will not let it go too far.

408
00:14:49.319 --> 00:14:50.179
 Yeah.

409
00:14:50.179 --> 00:14:52.779
 It's going to happen quicker than people think.

410
00:14:52.779 --> 00:14:55.939
 He's going to have to piss off one of his cronies.

411
00:14:55.939 --> 00:14:56.599
 Mm-hmm.

412
00:14:56.599 --> 00:15:01.099
 And I thought that happened with Elon Musk, but I don't know.

413
00:15:01.099 --> 00:15:03.379
 That guy's kind of gone underground lately.

414
00:15:03.379 --> 00:15:04.139
 Yeah.

415
00:15:04.139 --> 00:15:07.579
 I mean, he's got the most money in the world.

416
00:15:07.579 --> 00:15:08.879
 I mean, he can do anything he wants.

417
00:15:08.879 --> 00:15:09.379
 I don't think.

418
00:15:09.379 --> 00:15:11.579
 But maybe Trump's got something.

419
00:15:11.579 --> 00:15:12.379
 He's got something on him, too.

420
00:15:12.379 --> 00:15:13.039
 You know what I mean?

421
00:15:13.039 --> 00:15:15.619
 He says he wants to create an alternative party.

422
00:15:15.619 --> 00:15:16.779
 Like Musk does?

423
00:15:16.779 --> 00:15:17.419
 Uh-huh.

424
00:15:17.419 --> 00:15:17.879
 Hmm.

425
00:15:17.879 --> 00:15:19.619
 Hopefully, it works better than his cars.

426
00:15:19.619 --> 00:15:24.979
 I've never thought that having only two parties is a good idea, because you need to have one

427
00:15:24.979 --> 00:15:26.839
 on the left, one on the right, and one in the middle.

428
00:15:26.839 --> 00:15:27.619
 Hmm.

429
00:15:27.619 --> 00:15:32.859
 Or several in the middle that can compete for what's best.

430
00:15:32.859 --> 00:15:33.759
 Mm-hmm.

431
00:15:33.759 --> 00:15:39.519
 I'm afraid if Musk does come up with a third party, it will be the Musk party, and nobody

432
00:15:39.519 --> 00:15:40.279
 wants that.

433
00:15:40.279 --> 00:15:40.799
 No.

434
00:15:40.799 --> 00:15:41.519
 No.

435
00:15:42.279 --> 00:15:46.959
 I mean, well, can you imagine it just being more right-wing gibberish?

436
00:15:46.959 --> 00:15:48.999
 The way he's done everything.

437
00:15:48.999 --> 00:15:49.539
 Yeah.

438
00:15:49.539 --> 00:15:50.519
 Okie doke.

439
00:15:50.519 --> 00:15:50.979
 Is that it?

440
00:15:50.979 --> 00:15:51.919
 That's it.

441
00:15:51.919 --> 00:15:53.179
 You got a joke for us this week?

442
00:15:53.179 --> 00:15:53.979
 Yes, I do.

443
00:15:53.979 --> 00:15:54.459
 Okay.

444
00:15:54.459 --> 00:15:55.019
 Can we hear it?

445
00:15:55.019 --> 00:16:00.679
 A German shepherd went to a telegram office, took out a blank form, and wrote,

446
00:16:00.679 --> 00:16:02.039
 Woof, woof, woof.

447
00:16:02.039 --> 00:16:03.259
 Woof, woof, woof.

448
00:16:03.259 --> 00:16:04.459
 Woof, woof, woof.

449
00:16:04.459 --> 00:16:04.979
 Okay.

450
00:16:04.979 --> 00:16:08.739
 The clerk examined the paper and politely told the dog,

451
00:16:08.739 --> 00:16:11.439
 There are only nine words in this.

452
00:16:11.439 --> 00:16:14.959
 In this telegram, you could send another woof for the same price.

453
00:16:14.959 --> 00:16:15.599
 Okay.

454
00:16:15.599 --> 00:16:16.939
 The dog replied,

455
00:16:16.939 --> 00:16:19.159
 But that would make no sense at all.

456
00:16:19.159 --> 00:16:22.159
 That's cute.

457
00:16:22.159 --> 00:16:22.959
 That's cute.

458
00:16:22.959 --> 00:16:23.979
 That's a good dad joke.

459
00:16:23.979 --> 00:16:27.439
 I like that.

460
00:16:27.439 --> 00:16:33.579
 I think it's you who's always cracking me up because you think you're killing me.

461
00:16:33.579 --> 00:16:35.919
 All right.

462
00:16:35.919 --> 00:16:38.019
 Are you sure you're done?

463
00:16:38.019 --> 00:16:38.859
 Yes, I'm done.

464
00:16:38.859 --> 00:16:40.859
 This was episode 161

465
00:16:40.859 --> 00:16:42.999
 of the Baehr and Curadh podcast.

466
00:16:42.999 --> 00:16:44.319

467
00:16:44.319 --> 00:16:44.859
 Goodbye.
