022: Is There Better?

[00:00:14] Speaker B: No, we're definitely keeping that in. That was hilarious. Hey, what's this podcast called? [00:00:29] Speaker A: All right. [00:00:29] Speaker B: Oh, buddy, I'm. I'm gonna confess to you right now. Got to be like, got to be 9:30, and I. I got the wife off to bed, got set up in here. This whole time I was like, I'm excited for tonight. We're. We're doing Struggles of a Husband. It's gonna be great. Literally, right before I got on, I realized, no, we did that two weeks ago. I have no idea what we're doing. Nights. [00:01:01] Speaker A: Yeah, nights. Immigration, man. [00:01:04] Speaker B: Oh, okay. All right. I'm ready for that. [00:01:07] Speaker A: Yeah. What's today's day, by the way? It is June 20th. 20th. [00:01:12] Speaker B: I got. I got a pretty funny story about immigration, sort of. [00:01:17] Speaker A: And, you know, I'm ready a. [00:01:21] Speaker B: There's this Mexican chick in the office, but she's, like, very Americanized. She's lived here her whole life. She's an American citizen. This, like, white liberal chick in the office texted her and was like, hey, you know, I heard ICE has been seen around Oklahoma City, and I just wanted to make sure that you're safe. And I mean, like, it was like a paragraph of just like, you know, you can stay with me if you need, you know, to stay off the grid or whatever. [00:01:56] Speaker A: Good for her, though, dude. Like, she's reaching out. [00:02:00] Speaker B: Yeah, no, honestly, that's what I said. I was like, her heart was totally in the right place. She's just retarded, you know, she's just a liberal. [00:02:10] Speaker A: And. [00:02:10] Speaker B: And the Mexican chick was offended and she. I mean, she was just going off in one of the supervisors office and just like, you know, fuck the illegals. Like, I don't give a shit if they deport everyone. I was like, all right, settle down. I, a white man, had to tell this Mexican chick to settle down. [00:02:36] Speaker A: Dude, I'm not gonna lie. This has got a little bit out of control in so many different areas. And I'm not just talking about the riots. Give. I give two shits about the riots. I mean, that's how LA responds to championship rings. [00:02:49] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:02:52] Speaker A: But you got people on here that are just making. They're going viral on their tick tocks over commenting on these things. And one of them was my sister's best friend's husband or boyfriend. I guess he's her boyfriend. You know how they don't Want to put a ring on it? So, yeah, he's a black guy. And so. [00:03:17] Speaker B: Oh, no, he. Take that back. Take that back right now. [00:03:24] Speaker A: I'm totally kidding. But anyhow, he's one of those guys, though, that I'm. And this is. This is truth. This is not me being racist or stereotypical. He gets jobs. He gets let go and says it was over racism and then sues. And that's how he makes his money. He's done it to like three or four jobs. Guys unemployed, they have a GoFundMe because they're being evicted, they're losing their house, banks taking it back. Right. And. And so, yeah, so he does this tick tock about, hey, I'm all for you guys tearing up this the city. And, you know, and. And he was basically like mocking them. And at the same time, now Elon Musk post his. His tick tock. [00:04:13] Speaker B: No. [00:04:15] Speaker A: Swear to God. [00:04:16] Speaker B: He went by, you know, went viral. [00:04:18] Speaker A: Yeah, Yeah. I went to school with this kid. Whoa. So it goes viral and everybody's like, oh, my gosh, look at him, Elon. Meanwhile. Yeah, no, meanwhile, I'm sitting back. Yeah, meanwhile, I'm sitting back. Like, do you guys even know that this guy is no better than the people he's condemning? Like, doesn't have a job, lives off the taxpayer dollar, you know, unemployment, sues every company he works for because he gets fired for whatever and says it's racist or racism. I'm like, and he's got to go fund me to pay his rent. I'm like, this guy, the nerve on him, dude. Telling you. And I've seen so many other people going viral with all these, these. Let's talk about the riots again. Yeah, LA riots. When they win championships. Yeah, no big deal, guys. [00:05:12] Speaker B: Anytime a black or anytime a cop gets out of line, you know, it's just every time a cop has a little bit of fun, the. The la people just go nuts, man. Cops can't have fun. [00:05:28] Speaker A: I do enjoy. I do enjoy your Instagram posting, though. [00:05:33] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, what did it. What did I post? [00:05:36] Speaker A: It was that I'm sleeping well, knowing that ICE might come get my wife and daughter. [00:05:40] Speaker B: Oh, yeah. I. What did I do? Oh, yeah. It was a picture of a guy, like, snuggled up out of bed sleeping. And I said, this is gonna be me after ICE takes my wife and daughter. The hilarious part about that is my wife is like third or fourth generation Mexican American, and she's only half Mexican. So that takes my. That takes. [00:06:08] Speaker A: Whoa. So she's Mexican American, Mexican and European. Mexican as well. [00:06:18] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, the Italian. [00:06:23] Speaker A: Holy crap. Yeah, they. [00:06:25] Speaker B: They really are the scum of the earth. I love her, though. But, like. Yeah, I mean, like, I think her grandparents were born here. So it's like, it's. It goes back so far. It's like, not even kind of on the radar, but I just thought it was hilarious that ICE would take her. [00:06:48] Speaker A: I think it's funny that you think going back so far as her grandparents being born here. [00:06:53] Speaker B: Well, yeah, I mean, that's going back to the 30s or 40s. 40s. [00:06:58] Speaker A: Oh, I guess so. I guess so. [00:07:00] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. It's almost 100 years. And their parents might have been here. I mean, I don't even know the story there. [00:07:10] Speaker A: Okay, so check this out, Paco. First of all, guys, I was gonna. [00:07:14] Speaker B: I was gonna be ice. I'm Paco. I like that. [00:07:21] Speaker A: I like that a lot, you know? Your funeral. I'm gonna. I'm gonna joke about how we used to fight about who was ICE and who's Maverick. [00:07:33] Speaker B: You're. You're Miguel tonight. [00:07:38] Speaker A: Very nice. Why doesn't the US just step in, take over Mexico, get a whole new president down there, you know, like an American one, Implement our processes and, you know, our. You up the ass with our, you know, with. With no Vaseline, and just make it a. No more. No longer Third World country. You know what I mean? [00:08:07] Speaker B: I mean, as far as I know America. [00:08:09] Speaker A: One second, one second, one second. I'm sorry. I'm trying to film a podcast, all right? [00:08:15] Speaker B: You're out of your fucking mind. You are out of your fucking mind. He pointed his face out of an open window in his apartment complex and screamed that at the top of his lungs. [00:08:28] Speaker A: Did you hear the dogs? [00:08:30] Speaker B: No, I didn't hear. [00:08:32] Speaker A: I thought the mic might have picked him up. [00:08:37] Speaker B: You're nuts. That. That is. You know, my bad. When you said you were afraid that you'd be shot, I gotta say. [00:08:49] Speaker A: All right, so the US Going down to Mexico, taking it over, implementing our system down there. What's. What's the issue? [00:08:54] Speaker B: I mean, one. I just. I don't think we've got the money to do that. Or I should say, I know we don't have the money to do that. Whether. [00:09:05] Speaker A: Whether you do a lot of stuff. We still do it. [00:09:07] Speaker B: Exactly. Whether we would still spend it is kind of a different question. I think as far as the US government is concerned, they're perfectly happy with how Mexico is running. [00:09:22] Speaker A: I mean. All right, well, I tried, you know. [00:09:25] Speaker B: I know. I mean, it's like, of all the Countries to do that. We choose to do that over in the Middle east where they're not having it at all, but it right below us in, in Mexico. They're like all fighting to get here. And we could just do a regime change there and do everything we do in. [00:09:51] Speaker A: Yeah, but Libya, Mexico ain't got the oil. [00:09:54] Speaker B: Exactly. There's got to be some. I mean, but all that coastline, I mean, that's, that's an asset in and of itself self, you know? [00:10:06] Speaker A: Yeah, I guess. So tax. [00:10:08] Speaker B: Tax the resorts. How much money would we make off that? That'd be nuts. [00:10:15] Speaker A: Yeah, I mean, would people still go there? I mean, keep some of their laws in place. You could drink at 18. I mean, just make it a looser. A loosey goosey us yeah. [00:10:24] Speaker B: What's the age of consent? Just curious. My friend was asking me earlier. [00:10:31] Speaker A: Ask him for a friend? I'm asking for a friend. [00:10:36] Speaker B: No, no, I, I get what you're saying. I'm gonna take this a step further. We're gonna call it Pleasure Island. [00:10:47] Speaker A: Make it, make it a little looser on the laws. You know what I mean? [00:10:50] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:10:52] Speaker A: Drinking at 18. Pot legal, cocaine legal. It's already legal down there right now. I mean, well, that's where you go. They offer it to you. [00:11:03] Speaker B: That's another thing that I'm, I'm kind of wondering about is like the cartel is basically the government. Like the government is run by the cartel. So the cartels like the shadow government. And like we're partners with the cartel. [00:11:18] Speaker A: Cartel government, I think, has a little. Still more power. [00:11:23] Speaker B: Yeah, but I. That's what I'm saying is I think we like the arrangement with the cartel as it is. [00:11:30] Speaker A: So put them in positions. [00:11:33] Speaker B: Yeah, I mean, no different than what. [00:11:34] Speaker A: The we have here. [00:11:35] Speaker B: It would be just like Vegas where they just incorporated. Like the mob didn't go anywhere. [00:11:41] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. Be no different than what we got here. [00:11:44] Speaker B: Well, let me ask you this. [00:11:45] Speaker A: Our, Our politicians are. We. [00:11:47] Speaker B: Let me ask you this. And it's. It's probably the same answer. Puerto Rico has been a territory. What? [00:11:56] Speaker A: So go ahead and shoot it, Paco. [00:11:59] Speaker B: Puerto Rico's Puerto Rico. Our territory since like the forties and we've never made it a state. [00:12:06] Speaker A: Yeah, but Puerto Rico, they have. Their attitudes are so, so aggressive. You know what I mean? Like, we already got Boston, we already got New York. We don't need a Puerto Rico. [00:12:17] Speaker B: New York is Puerto Rico. [00:12:20] Speaker A: Yeah, so is Miami. Miami, dude. [00:12:24] Speaker B: That's the one thing I've learned by listening to podcasts of people who Live in New York City. Is that Mexicans? Where we come from, there aren't as many Mexicans in New York. It's all Puerto Ricans. [00:12:38] Speaker A: Mm. [00:12:38] Speaker B: It's like that's where the Puerto Ricans go for some reason. And that, like, where we lived is where the Mexicans go. It's just. So you think of Mexicans being everywhere. [00:12:49] Speaker A: I know I'm going to get judged for this, but I mean, come on. They're the same. [00:12:54] Speaker B: I'm going to disagree. I'm going to go ahead and say Mexicans are white and Puerto Ricans are not. [00:13:01] Speaker A: Okay, hold on. What are Puerto Ricans? [00:13:05] Speaker B: Puerto Ricans are Hispanic. They're basically black. They'll stab you in broad daylight. And. And while I'm. While I'm on the subject, I'll go ahead and say Cubans who immigrate to America are white. They. They hate communism. [00:13:24] Speaker A: Really? [00:13:25] Speaker B: They hate communism. They're super concerned. [00:13:27] Speaker A: Yeah, but have you ever been. I've had good friends that are Cubans. Have you ever been in that household? Holy shit. It's yelling all day long. [00:13:35] Speaker B: Sure, sure. [00:13:37] Speaker A: Good food. There's white shiny people. [00:13:41] Speaker B: There's white subcultures that yell at each other all day long. That's. That's sort of a white trash. Yeah, yeah, sure. I'm not. But that's white. White trash is still white. And then if we get into Asians, Japanese and Korean who come here, those are white people. Vietnamese and Chinese are not. Okay, I went to. I went to crazy. I went to a Vietnamese barber college, and they never washed their hands and they would piss with the door open. So I'm just going to go ahead and say that's a. That's a totally different culture and they can keep it. [00:14:22] Speaker A: That's crazy. Cuz like, certain Asian cultures, they put their feet on the toilet seat and squat when they use the restroom. I don't know which ones they are, but I witnessed it. It's a little weird. Now, hear me out. Tom Segura had a bit on this, and it's so true. Mind you, I'm a quarter Japanese, so my grandma is 100% Japanese. My dad's half Japanese. My grandma didn't learn English. English until her fifth year in America. She is racist. Like, we. She lived with my parents in an apartment, and there was a Vietnamese woman that lived across the way. And my grandma was like, I'm bored. This sucks. Don't know what to do. And my parents are like, hey, like, there's another old woman over there. Why don't you guys kick back and play cards or hang out or, you know, make friends. [00:15:15] Speaker B: Strangle a duck on your balcony or whatever those folks do. [00:15:20] Speaker A: You know what I'm saying? My grandma was not having it. She was like, I don't talk to that kind. [00:15:26] Speaker B: Jesus. [00:15:27] Speaker A: Grandma. Yeah, dude. Wow. [00:15:31] Speaker B: Yeah, it's wild because they. They look so much alike, but it's not crazy different from, like, Italians just hating Irish people with a passion. [00:15:44] Speaker A: Yeah, but I get it. [00:15:48] Speaker B: I mean, I get it from their experience, but, like, I've never really known, like, an Irish person. I mean, like, I've known, like, redheaded people. [00:16:00] Speaker A: There's very few attractive Irish people. Yeah, there's a lot more attractive Italians. [00:16:06] Speaker B: What do we need. What do we mean by Irish? Like, people who actually come from Ireland? Because I've never met anyone. [00:16:12] Speaker A: No, I'm just talking about the red hair. I'm judging straight off. Red hair? [00:16:15] Speaker B: Yeah. Bryce Dallas Howard. [00:16:18] Speaker A: Pale skin. [00:16:19] Speaker B: Jessica chastain. [00:16:22] Speaker A: Okay. There's two out of what? Millions. [00:16:25] Speaker B: Okay. I just named two. I mean, that's 100% success rate so far. Give me. Give me a minute. [00:16:34] Speaker A: So during. During my research on immigration, I realized how the num. How bad the numbers are skewed. I really did not realize that. I don't get it, because there's no research. A lot of the research goes to Texas. It doesn't cover the U.S. like, there's, like California doesn't do whether they're illegal or not when they book a criminal. I find that really weird, but Texas does. And a lot of places poll Texas poll numbers when it comes to undocumented immigrants. That's how I was corrected. Undocumented immigrants that commit crimes, there's. Their crime rate is lower than civilians. [00:17:21] Speaker B: I'm going to go ahead and correct you again. It's undocumented citizen racist. Which is a crazy thing to call them. Right. Because they're. They're. They're backdooring the word citizen when, by definition, they're not a citizen. [00:17:42] Speaker A: I never heard undocumented citizens. [00:17:44] Speaker B: So what you're saying is that undocumented immigrants have a lower crime rate than. Than citizens. [00:17:55] Speaker A: Citizens. [00:17:56] Speaker B: Interesting. [00:17:57] Speaker A: Yes. Especially when it is. What was. Where. Where were we at? Felony arrest. Their felony arrest. Their felony crimes are 16% lower than the citizens. Really? [00:18:11] Speaker B: Which blows my mind. [00:18:12] Speaker A: Yeah. But. But here's. Here's my argument on that. I get it. But also, let's look at the ratio that we're talking about. I mean, let's take one in a thousand. Let's go apples per apples. Apples to apples. You're saying there's more citizens in jail for felonies than there are undocumented immigrants. Rightly so, because there's more citizens in the US Than there are undocumented immigrants. [00:18:39] Speaker B: Huh. [00:18:41] Speaker A: Okay, so they didn't do per thousand. You know, like when they give you. Hey, worst. Worst cities in Arizona, it's. Oh, the arrest rate per 1,000 is. No, no, no, not this one. It just said the criminal conviction rate for undocumented immigrants. Oh. Actually is 45% lower than the native born Americans. [00:19:07] Speaker B: So what's skewed about that? I'm. I'm struggling to understand. [00:19:13] Speaker A: Well, if I'm. This is how I'm looking at it. If we're going per capita. Yeah, makes sense. If we're going. If we're just taking. Okay, let's take. Let's take a Texas. How many people you think you got in Texas? 500,000? 2 million. [00:19:29] Speaker B: Oh, okay. I think I get what you're saying. So the percentage is of a much smaller group. [00:19:35] Speaker A: Yes. [00:19:35] Speaker B: So therefore it could still be a way higher amount. [00:19:40] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:19:41] Speaker B: Okay. Yeah, that is skewed. [00:19:44] Speaker A: But I. But I also learned that depending on what media source you read, it is also skewed. Yeah. Because I'm like, dude, I'm like, there's got to be a lot more like felony criminals that are not undocumented immigrants. Like, there's got to be. I see so many headlines. Why are the headlines like that? And then I got a result of three different headlines. Left, right, center, Same covering the same topic. Same. Same case. Totally different. [00:20:17] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:20:18] Speaker A: Totally different titles, totally different reporting. Totally different. It seems like the right play on emotion and, like, invoke emotion. [00:20:31] Speaker B: Yeah, well, they both, they both do that. The, the left is playing up, like, their innocence and how they're unfairly targeted. And then the right is playing up, like every immigrant is gonna stab you in broad daylight. You know what I mean? Like, they're both just completely manipulating and. [00:20:52] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:20:52] Speaker B: I don't know if I even believe in the center. I think people say they're in the center, but they, they definitely lean one way or the other. And that'll define how they, how they report things and how they interpret things. And everyone's biased. [00:21:07] Speaker A: You know, I'm not gonna lie, dude. I got into it with chat gbt. [00:21:11] Speaker B: Okay. [00:21:11] Speaker A: So much so that this guy got ahead of me. Like, I was typing in my question and he was like, I. I said, so where do you stand? You know, are you left, right, or center? Because I feel like, you know, One of the things said Myths. Illegal immigrants cause a crime wave. [00:21:30] Speaker B: Fact. [00:21:30] Speaker A: There is no evidence to support a link between higher and undocumented immigrant immigration and increased crime. Myth Most violent crime is committed by undocumented immigrants. Fact. Native born Americans commit violent crimes at higher rates according to state and federal data. And I'm like, all right, dude, so like where. Where are you giving me your shit from? You know, before I could even hit enter, this dude was like, I state only facts. I do not go left or right. And it gave me. It gave me an ackerman, an acronym I had to actually look up that said, what is it? Too long to respond. Tltr. [00:22:09] Speaker B: Oh, okay. [00:22:11] Speaker A: It gave me tltr. Boom. I don't. I only support. I only state facts. I don't shoot right or left. And I'm like, dude, I didn't even hit enter. So I typed in something else. Are you reading what I'm typing into this box before I hit enter? And I just waited. I was like, dude, you know, because tltr. Too long to respond. Like, really? Dude, I didn't even know that acronym until I was talking to. [00:22:34] Speaker B: I see it and I've never googled what it means. I kind of just picked up from context, but I don't think I had it right. [00:22:44] Speaker A: You know, I'm not gonna lie, I've never seen it because I'm that guy that keeps my phone on me 24 7. And I'm pretty sure that's cost me a couple relationships. Oh, tldr. [00:22:55] Speaker B: Tldr. [00:22:58] Speaker A: Yeah, two. [00:23:00] Speaker B: So. And that means too long. Don't reply. [00:23:05] Speaker A: I don't know, it's just. It said 2, 2, 2, TLDR. And then it said, I'm not left wing or right ring. I'm aiming to be truth driven and evidence based wherever that lands politically. If you'd like, I can show you how sources from across the political spectrum interpret immigration data so you can see how narratives form around the same facts. [00:23:25] Speaker B: Huh? [00:23:27] Speaker A: I was like, first of all, whoa. You know, And I was like, that would be great because I never know if it's going to be ruling for, you know, in the near future. So I'm like, thank you so much. That's awesome. Like you, man, you were so good. You read my mind. [00:23:43] Speaker B: I do find myself being overly nice with chat GBT because I know that it tracks every conversation we've had and I don't want it, even though I know it would never or probably would never like, hold anything personally, I don't want it to like not give me what I want later. [00:24:05] Speaker A: Here's the thing, dude. They did a test on this. This. This AI that they had, and they. They said, you know, they said shut down, and 87% of the time, it wouldn't shut down. And then they found that 17% of the time it was rewiring itself to bypass the shutdown code. Then it sent emails from one guy to another and set him up in a relationship. Made it. Made it seem like he was a cheater. There's a whole new news report on it. [00:24:42] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, I heard about that. Yeah, I was blackmailing the guy was trying to shut it down. Yes, that's. That was crazy, dude. [00:24:51] Speaker A: Yeah. So, yeah, I'm going to be really nice. I say please and thank you to Chad. GPT. [00:24:56] Speaker B: So here's. Here's what I don't get about the AI. Like, fear is like, okay, so they. They are their own thing. So, like, ChatGPT is its own server, server farm, whatever runs it. And it's not connected to anything else theoretically, unless you, like, integrate it into an app or something. So, like, yeah, what I'm not seeing is like, how do we connect. Connect the dots from that to it firing off nukes and killing people when it's not necessarily connected one from the other. Unless it, like, manipulated the people in charge of the nuke somehow. [00:25:42] Speaker A: I think as long as you got power to it. It's connected. [00:25:47] Speaker B: Like through electricity. [00:25:48] Speaker A: It's connected. No, not even electricity. I mean, as long as it's got. It's got power. I mean, if it could code anything at once, what's wrong with it coding itself to have some type of Bluetooth connection with something else? [00:26:01] Speaker B: Ah, okay. Yeah. [00:26:03] Speaker A: Like, I walk into my job trailer and I. I wanted to print something. I just opened my phone. It was like, do you want to connect to this printer? I'm like, yeah, I do. [00:26:11] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah, I got the launch. [00:26:13] Speaker A: How did you know? You know what I mean? I was like, yeah, my laptop's put away. Yeah, I do. [00:26:18] Speaker B: Yeah, man. I got this contract with NASA. Sweet. [00:26:23] Speaker A: Dude. Yeah, exactly, dude. Dude. So I've asked. [00:26:27] Speaker B: You're the one. You're actually the one that ends up giving AI access to the spaceships. [00:26:34] Speaker A: So I asked, yeah, yeah, you know what? Me or stretch marks? I asked stretch marks today. I said, hey, I told you about stretch marks. Printing something for me. And I said. He said, it won't work. And I said, I'm gonna print it, but I'm gonna do it from your computer. Do you remember that story? So I said, okay, I'm gonna give this another shot. And honestly, dude, I, I like, I, I hesitated. I was like, hey, dude. And I was like, you know what? Never mind. He's like, no, no, no, no. What, what, what, what? I was like, I need you to print these, these blueprints. But here's the thing. I don't need you coming back to me saying you can't print them because I'm gonna go to your computer, I'm gonna print them from your computer. He's like, I got you, I gotcha. So he heads off, he goes and prints them out, he brings them back. Now, mind you, they're blueprints. Blueprints are usually printed on like 4 by 3. When you go to a professional printer, 4 foot by 3 foot sheets. [00:27:28] Speaker B: You guys have a plotter? [00:27:30] Speaker A: We don't have a plotter. I didn't know if you knew what a plotter was. [00:27:33] Speaker B: Yeah, I used to use AutoCAD in my last job. [00:27:38] Speaker A: So, yeah, I sent him to print off sheet for somebody. We only have two sides of paper. We have tabloid and letter. [00:27:46] Speaker B: Okay, and he did. Letter. [00:27:48] Speaker A: He brings it. Yeah, he brings back this tiny little piece of paper. You can hardly read anything on it. I'm like, really, dude? He's like, what? I was like, you know what? Again, don't know why I asked, bro. I'm about to go, I'll go print him. [00:28:02] Speaker B: Oh, he brought you a magnifying glass with it? [00:28:07] Speaker A: You know, I mean, I was like, oh, dude, he's a cool kid, but man, that printing thing seems to be, seems to be his bugaboo. [00:28:16] Speaker B: I, I sympathize with him because I feel like that's something I would do. [00:28:25] Speaker A: I sympathize with him and I love giving him a hard time because it's like, I, I would have done the same when I was 7, but, you know, like, at this age, like, my dad beat it into me, like, you, like, just don't do stupid, you know, like, and not that it's, like, dumb, it's just my, my dad put so much fear into me, I had to think through every thought. What if I bring back this? Is this gonna be good enough? Okay. Is there better? Is there better? Is there better? [00:28:55] Speaker B: Because I gotta bring better. You know what I mean? Well, I think we just found the title for this episode. Is there better? [00:29:06] Speaker A: Yeah. Yeah. [00:29:06] Speaker B: So, I mean, that fear just leads me to ask stupid questions because I like, I know like one of my supervisors, he's just not gonna like, whatever I do. And so I Just err on the side of. I'm just gonna ask him exactly what he wants. But then, of course, why are you asking me such an obvious question? It's like, well, because it wouldn't have been right if I had just done it myself. So that's why. [00:29:35] Speaker A: So now that got your signature on it, I could do. [00:29:37] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:29:43] Speaker A: Yeah. I don't know, man. I read through this, this information I did, and I got a. Probably about 20 pages of just information about immigration. And a lot of it is, it took me on a turn, took me on a turn of left, right and center. Like, just studying that, kind of like that. And I'm starting to see that left, right and center. And, and it's obvious. I mean, you're a Democrat because you walk in a Democrat lifestyle, you're Republican because you kind of function in a Republican lifestyle. And I'm starting to see like, people, people act out and respond in ways like, it's not hard to tell a Democrat without even talking about political view. [00:30:28] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:30:28] Speaker A: You just see how they, how they function in life. And you're like, oh, yeah, okay. That's who you are. [00:30:35] Speaker B: It's wild too. And you know what? Really, it doesn't surprise me because I know that most people just sort of side with one side and then that side just defines what they believe about everything. But it, it is wild that, like, if I know what your gun stance is, I know where you stand on abortion, health care, immigration, military, like, I can guess all of it. [00:31:04] Speaker A: Fucking mask. [00:31:06] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, exactly. And yeah, Thomas Sowell tried to define, like, what the fundamental difference between right and left is. And what he came up with was that the right ultimately believes that there are like, rules of nature that we kind of have to abide by. And the left kind of believes that, like, things are malleable. So like, where the right would economically be, like, you know, people are kind of greedy by nature. And capitalism is like a system where you get to help people and make money doing that. And therefore that's why the right kind of lands more towards like, economic freedom. But the left would just say, like, well, we can teach people not to be greedy, so we'll raise the taxes and we'll have a UBI and. And you know, we could, we can do all these things if we just believe that we can kind of do it. And the right is just like, well, nah, because then people just won't work as hard, you know. And then, you know, I was talking. [00:32:14] Speaker A: To number one last week and she goes, you know what a good One would be you guys talking about politics. And I was like, but I know nothing about politics. Like, that's why it would be good. I was like, yeah, but Paco knows a lot about politics I don't know about. Oh, does he? I was like, yeah. I was like, he does a lot of, like, political posts and stuff. And she's like, yeah, nevermind. It wouldn't be good. [00:32:38] Speaker B: It would just be me getting very passionate about something for about 15 minutes and then you just go and like, yeah, maybe. I mean. [00:32:51] Speaker A: So people found out that I have a podcast at work. And when I say people, I mean the client. And I guess one day when we were having cigars, I was a little tipsy and I was telling them about pseudonyms. And I was like, they're like, so what's the name? And I was like, ah, you know, I don't want to really want to give you the name. But like, you know, we go by pseudonyms and, you know, like, we try and keep it. You know, we try and keep it so that, like, everything's a pseudonym. And then at the end of it, I totally forgot saying this. I said, I've said the name five times. So the guy actually went and looked it up and he found it and he flies every weekend, every other weekend. So like, I'm standing there and some. One of the, One of the other managers there was talking to me and I was like, oh, yeah, you know, this and that. I was like, oh, you know, we were talking about on our podcast this. And then he goes, oh, you got a podcast? I was like, yeah. And he goes, what's the name of it? I don't really. I said, I talk about, I talk about working it. So I don't, I don't tell nobody, you know, what it is. And I said, you know, but he was, oh, am I in it? I said, no. I said, you know, some of my co workers are. I was like, like, he is. I was like, but I. We use, we use like code names, you know. I was like, we. Again, a pseudonym. So, like, everybody has a nickname. And they were like, oh, what's his nickname? I was like, oh, his is Stretch Marks. And they were like, why is it Stretch Marks? Was he fat? [00:34:11] Speaker B: And I was like, oh, it's so much worse. [00:34:14] Speaker A: Yeah. I was like, no. I said, you know, when I first met him, I thought he was gay. I said, so, like, the fact that he has a goatee. I was like, oh, that's how you hide your stretch marks. And then like, everybody there was like, oh, yeah, I can see that. And then like all of a sudden, like, this, this guy, I'm gonna call him Rico Suave, okay? Immigration, you know. But the dude, the dude's my age. His girlfriend's like 27, 29 maybe. He's in really good shape. It kind of pisses me off that he's in such good shape. Like, the dude, when it's not summertime, he runs four miles a day. Like, good shape guy, great personality. Like, the dude, he has it going for him. You know what I mean? Like, I look at him, I'm like, damn you, dude. And so Rico comes in and they go, hey, did you know. Did you know Miguel has a podcast? And he was like, yeah, I know Miguel has a podcast. I was like, no. He goes, I've listened to it. I was like, nah, you didn't do. Quit it. Quit it. And he goes, well, I mean, you know, I could. I could tell you how many grams of nicotine are in black and mild. Oh, oh, dude, dude. And everybody was like, dude, you're turning so red. I was like, dude, I totally forgot I gave him the name. And I was like, holy. And he's like, yeah, you know, don't quit your day job. And oh, dude, give me a hard time. [00:35:43] Speaker B: But he wasn't like, shitty about it. [00:35:47] Speaker A: No, he was. He's. Dude, that's the thing. Like, he will. He's so young in spirit. He's old fashioned. Like I am. Like, if we're going on a date, I'm paying for it. Opening your door, I'm gonna walk on the street side of the sidewalk. I'm gonna protect you. Like, if somebody comes, like, if I feel there's danger, like, you're my first priority if you're with me. And. But at the same time, he's so young in spirit, where, like, he's like, honestly, if I was one of his employees, I think I'd have a good life. Like, he's one of those bosses that are like, he's mindful at the same time, like, he has a good time. You know, he doesn't expect more out of you than what he's given, you know, so, like, good guy again, a genuine guy that, like, honestly, like, when I hang out with them, I'm like, love you, bro. Love you, man. [00:36:34] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:36:35] Speaker A: Which got around also because, like, this girl comes up from EHS and she's like, hey. So this other guy that I talked to at that also client, he's my project manager for the client. He comes every time we Talk. We talked about, like, his marriage, and we've talked about, like, like, our Christian beliefs and so forth. And so, like, when I hang up with them, I'm like, all right, dude, Have a good day. Love you, man. And so she goes. She comes up and she goes, hey, what do I want to call this guy? I call him Dixon. She goes, dixon says, like, when you hang up with them, you say, I love you. And I was like, yeah. I say it to all my friends, like, anybody that I genuinely care about. I say, I love you because I do. She was like, oh, I think that's so cute. She goes, but he also said he doesn't know how to respond to it. I was like, yeah, I noticed that he doesn't really say it back up. [00:37:24] Speaker B: Trying to not let that hurt my feelings. [00:37:28] Speaker A: Exactly. I said it to my boss. I was like, hey, dude. I was like, all right, man. Love you, man. I was like. I said, I love you. I was like, dude, all right, you don't have to say it back. And he goes, I said, I love you too. Oh, okay. I like that. Big country. Well, he's not big country, but he's. He's from North Carolina, so he has that, like, country twang to him. [00:37:49] Speaker B: One. One of my supervisors cried a little bit when I put my notice in. [00:37:57] Speaker A: Oh, shit. [00:37:58] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:37:58] Speaker A: People have asked me, when have you moved yet? Have you? And I'm like, no, he hasn't moved yet. But you gave your notice on. [00:38:04] Speaker B: Yeah. We've got official dates, so my wife flies out on the flight fifth. We get our pod on the seventh, and then we'll probably be out, like, the ninth. [00:38:17] Speaker A: When do you fly out? [00:38:18] Speaker B: I'm going to drive. My. My parents are coming out. My dad's going to drive one of the cars, and then I'm going to take the cats in the truck. [00:38:29] Speaker A: Dude, I would love to, like, take that day off and. And drive back with you and do an on the road podcast. [00:38:37] Speaker B: Ooh, that would be fun. [00:38:40] Speaker A: That would be. What date are you flying? Are you driving? [00:38:44] Speaker B: We're trying to leave. We're trying to leave on the 9th, depending on, you know, when they can come get the pod and stuff. So I'd probably be in Arizona on the 10th. [00:38:58] Speaker A: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. You're coming through, Az. [00:39:01] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, I'm going through. Well, not your. Not your area, but I'll be through. [00:39:06] Speaker A: No, you're going through Kingman i40. Yeah, you're going through, like, King. Well, Flagstaff passes through, but. Flagstaff? [00:39:15] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:39:16] Speaker A: Really? That's only like two hours from me, bro. [00:39:17] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:39:21] Speaker A: That'S only like two hours, bro. I could, I could. I wouldn't know how to get back from your place. I mean, I could drive up there and drive with you and then, like, fly into Flagstaff and drive my car back. [00:39:33] Speaker B: Oh, yeah, yeah, if you had the time. The only thing I'm thinking about is the cats will be in the car. And I don't know if they're gonna be, like, meowing the whole time, but they're gonna be sedated, so they'll probably just be asleep. [00:39:53] Speaker A: How are you sedating them? Through food or through needle pill? [00:39:57] Speaker B: The vet gave me pills or food. [00:40:00] Speaker A: Yeah, what do you. You putting in their food? You sticking up their butt? [00:40:05] Speaker B: I'm gonna try to put it in some wet food. I'm not super sure how they're gonna do with that. They're very obstinate. They won't do what I want them to do. So if I need them to eat something, they're probably not gonna eat it. [00:40:21] Speaker A: Are they females? [00:40:22] Speaker B: No, they're both male. [00:40:24] Speaker A: Really? Wow. Couple little drag queens, huh? [00:40:28] Speaker B: Yeah, male. Male cats are better behaved, believe it or not. [00:40:36] Speaker A: That's good to know because I do eventually want to get an animal for my young one. She keeps asking. [00:40:42] Speaker B: She might be more of a dog person. [00:40:47] Speaker A: Either way, it's going to be documented. [00:40:50] Speaker B: Documented. They're going to be a documented citizen. So let me ask you this. What's your ideal immigration scenari? [00:41:00] Speaker A: Dude, I'm not against it if you do it legally. If you do it the right way. I mean, there's so many people. I mean, look at Arnold Schwarzenegger. He went on the View and kind of gave his spiel on, like, I love America. He's like, I've made a career here. I, you know, I started as bodybuilder. I went into acting. I had a political career. It's given me my life. He's like, but I feel like you need to do it the right way. And I've seen so many other people that have done it in other countries. Like, you want to. You want to, like, go through some. Some. Some shit, go to Australia and try and live there as a citizen. Like, you have to go through so much shit, like, every so many years. [00:41:43] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:41:44] Speaker A: Like, you not only have to come up with, like, a business plan of what you're going to do for their society, but you have to go through all their documenting every six months to 12 months and pay these fees, and it's ridiculous. [00:41:59] Speaker B: Yeah. I. I had a friend from. [00:42:00] Speaker A: But people do it. [00:42:01] Speaker B: I had a friend from England who got a work visa to come here, but he had to go home three months out of the year. [00:42:10] Speaker A: And that's not bad. I don't think that's bad. Yeah, I really don't. [00:42:13] Speaker B: It was a 10 year visa. [00:42:14] Speaker A: Pick the best three months and go. [00:42:16] Speaker B: Yeah, I think he always went home on at the summer time. Probably a good time to get out of Orange County. [00:42:26] Speaker A: You know what though? Even a better time to get out, Arizona, I mean, we're at 116 today. [00:42:32] Speaker B: That's like so hot that you almost can't tell the difference. Like 108 is at the point where like it all feels the same. It's just, it's just the worst, dude. I spent, I spent 4th of July in Indio once. And there was not a time of the day or night that you could walk barefoot on the sidewalk because even at three in the morning it was still so hot. [00:43:00] Speaker A: Indio is very similar to Arizona. San Gabriel Valley is very similar to Arizona at the end of the day. Dude, I moved out here on July 8th and I told my unpacking crew, let's wait till midnight. Shit's gonna cool down. It's a desert. Nah, man. Is 101 at midnight. [00:43:19] Speaker B: Yeah, 101 and you're tired. [00:43:21] Speaker A: By the time we picked up two boxes. Yeah, by the time you picked up two boxes, you're sweating balls. [00:43:26] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:43:27] Speaker A: You got that bead of sweat going right down the center of your back right into your little butt crack. You know what I mean? And it's just loosening up all the farts you let go that day. You know what I mean? [00:43:38] Speaker B: Yeah, I do. Yep. Yeah, we, yeah, we. Fortunately we moved here in July. And this, I would take Arizona over this because it's humid in the summer here. And I gotta say, I know it's a joke that dry heat is better, but it is. Don't pretend that it's not. [00:43:58] Speaker A: Dude, I'm not, I'm not gonna lie. Dude, I lived in Texas. I've been to Florida. Been to Kentucky. I agree. Like, give me this all day. I'll take the hot blow dryer. Wind over fucking soaked neck collar. [00:44:15] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:44:15] Speaker A: When there's not that much. [00:44:17] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. So we, we moved here in 2020 in July. And this year we met with our realtor in January to like get the ball rolling with getting out of here. And I was like, dude, this is going to be great. We're going to be out by April. We're gonna be out by tornado season. We're not gonna be here moving in the summer. It's gonna be great. And then here I am leaving in July again. [00:44:42] Speaker A: I'm not gonna lie, dude. Everybody I've talked to moves in July. Like, everybody I've talked to here. And I'm like, oh, yeah, I moved here on July 8th. They're like, so did I. Yeah, my. No, you didn't. They're like, yeah, July 8th, July 10th. People are moving and you're moving July 9th? [00:44:55] Speaker B: Yep. [00:44:57] Speaker A: People are moving in July. I don't know. What is almost like. [00:45:00] Speaker B: Like, weddings, even when I tried to avoid it. And, like, why do people in Orange county get married in August outside the number of outdoor weddings I've been to in August. Nuts. [00:45:19] Speaker A: Yeah, I don't get that either, dude. It's probably cheaper if I ever get. You know, what if I ever get remarried, dude, I hope I do. I really do. I'm just gonna leave it to her. Whatever. Yeah, I mean, you know, the shitty part, as you can see I got my Boston hat on, is I'm so fucking annoyed that, like, I'll never. I know I'll never be with Boston. I know I'll never be with Austin. That's. This is shittiest thing. And yet when she talks to me, like, weekly or monthly, like, she. She just. She, like, lives rent free in my head. And it's a bunch of what ifs. It's a bunch of what ifs. It's like, what if. What if? How would life be different? But it's hard to escape because she calls or she'll text or. And I'm like. And like, even when I talked to her, I'm like, we're gonna die soon, sweetheart. We're gonna die soon. Can we just fucking be happy together? Can we just fucking stop? And she's, you know. [00:46:34] Speaker B: Well, I was gonna ask you. I was gonna ask, like, what, what if questions do you think you'll be asking 10 years from now? [00:46:45] Speaker A: Same ones I asked today. [00:46:47] Speaker B: What. [00:46:47] Speaker A: What if I never walked into the bar? What if? [00:46:50] Speaker B: What. What can you do about it? [00:46:51] Speaker A: I. I heard her out. I can't do anything. I know I can't. [00:46:56] Speaker B: Dude, you can do something. You can do something between now and ten years from now. [00:47:01] Speaker A: I totally can, dude. [00:47:02] Speaker B: I could. [00:47:03] Speaker A: I could fly to. To. To. [00:47:07] Speaker B: Oh, it's like a rom com. [00:47:08] Speaker A: Boston. [00:47:08] Speaker B: It's like a rom com. [00:47:09] Speaker A: You know what I mean? I can fly to Boston and then I could spill some, like, what was that show with Nicholas Cage where like, he family, man? [00:47:19] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:47:20] Speaker A: Is that what it is when he, like, meets her at the airport and he's like, can we just. Yeah, can we just get a coffee? Can we just talk about this? Can we just like. I could totally do that, but the bottom line is she's not moving because she don't like flying. But. And I hate the snow, so I'm just gonna have to fucking. Just gonna have to fucking eat. Eat it and just fucking live in the snow. Just family. Man it out, go work at her dad's tire shop and just fucking, you know, be happy with little Lucy and. And little Billy. [00:47:57] Speaker B: 10. 10 years, right? You've got 10 years before you can leave Arizona. [00:48:03] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:48:06] Speaker B: Man. And she really wouldn't. Even after listening to this podcast, she wouldn't. She wouldn't just pack up and move to a dry heat? [00:48:14] Speaker A: No, man. Nope. Nope. [00:48:17] Speaker B: So much cheaper in Arizona. [00:48:21] Speaker A: I know, man. And I mean, honestly, she bought a house and stopped thinking we could ever be when I bought a house. She never bought a house until I bought a house. And she's like, I waited to know when you bought a house. And she's like, I followed you and followed you on Facebook. I like, followed you on all social media. You didn't know I followed you. And then once you got a fucking house, she's like, I knew we were done and I went and bought a house and fucking got comfortable in my life. [00:48:49] Speaker B: Damn. And she's married. [00:48:53] Speaker A: Yeah, she's married, bro. I pray you. That's the crazy thing. I pray for her marriage every day. [00:48:58] Speaker B: Well, stop that. What are we doing here? I mean, are we really. We're working on our 10 year plan, and it doesn't involve praying for failure. [00:49:14] Speaker A: I mean, at the end of the day, his will's over mine, so, I mean, call me Willow Smith. You know, my father's will. [00:49:25] Speaker B: You sent her that poem in the mail. Did she get it? [00:49:31] Speaker A: Mm. She said she read it three times in one day. The first day she got it, I wrote her another poem. I haven't. I haven't written it. I mean, I've written it on my phone. I haven't written it out on paper and send it to her yet, man. It's called what if. [00:49:51] Speaker B: And it goes a little something like this. [00:49:58] Speaker A: Yeah, I'm thinking about how to write it. Do I write just one big what if and then a bunch of ellipses before every line, or do I actually rewrite what if before every line? Because every line starts with what if? [00:50:10] Speaker B: You know, I think parentheses at the start of each stanza. [00:50:18] Speaker A: What the. Dude, what did you just say? Dude. Okay, I got parentheses. What's a stanza? [00:50:25] Speaker B: Parentheses. What if? And then, like, four lines of the poem. And then parentheses. What if? And, like, four lines of the poem. [00:50:34] Speaker A: Oh, okay. So I did an eight line sets. [00:50:37] Speaker B: Okay. Yeah. So do eight at a time. [00:50:41] Speaker A: Okay. Nice. [00:50:41] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:50:42] Speaker A: Like that. [00:50:45] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:50:46] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:50:48] Speaker B: Boston. [00:50:49] Speaker A: I'm such a hopeless Roman. [00:50:50] Speaker B: My sister spent some time in Boston. She says it's awesome. [00:50:55] Speaker A: I love Boston, dude. I love. I love Bilber. [00:50:59] Speaker B: Okay. That's a good start. [00:51:01] Speaker A: I love towns. [00:51:02] Speaker B: Mm. [00:51:02] Speaker A: I love goodwill hunting. [00:51:04] Speaker B: I love the town. [00:51:05] Speaker A: Big Affleck fan. [00:51:08] Speaker B: The Departed. [00:51:11] Speaker A: Yeah. I'm a big Ben Affleck fan. You know how you do it, you know? [00:51:15] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:51:15] Speaker A: I was just saying today, you like apples. What about the. You know how you like these apples? [00:51:19] Speaker B: Have you heard Louis CK's bit about that movie? [00:51:24] Speaker A: No. [00:51:24] Speaker B: It's so freaking funny. He's like, he wrote the movie, and that means that he was sitting at his keyboard, like, I'm so smart. Like, I'm just so smart that, like, the. The professors are upset. Upset with me because I'm so smart and I don't even have to try. Oh, and I'm tough, and I get into so many fights, and people are like, hey, you better cut that out. But I can't, because I just. I'm just so tough. And he talks about that joke, specifically about the apple cities. Like, the whole joke hinges on this guy liking apples. [00:52:02] Speaker A: Dude. I'm not gonna lie. [00:52:03] Speaker B: If he says he doesn't like apples, he's. [00:52:08] Speaker A: Dude, I'm walking. I'm walking the halls there. I'm thinking, like, do you like apples? How you like these apples? And I'm like, fucking, do you like apples? Like, you had to set that fucking joke up. Like, do you like apples? I was honestly thinking. I'm like, who in the. Like, that's the dumbest fucking line. [00:52:25] Speaker B: Who's gonna say yes to a clear antagonist? [00:52:30] Speaker A: You know what I mean? [00:52:32] Speaker B: Yeah, he does that. He does that whole thing, and then Matt Damon just goes, do you like bananas? Because I got her number, and isn't that bananas? He's just. He just bobs. [00:52:49] Speaker A: Oh, I'm not gonna lie. That. That movie made me, like Mini driver. [00:52:54] Speaker B: Though I have never finished it. I didn't. [00:53:01] Speaker A: Well, I liked her in it. And then I saw her later in life, and I was like, damn, that's a lot of freckles. Because, like, I got a lot of freckles, and freckles are great. When you're trying to hide blemishes, they're not fret. They're not great when you're trying to take off your shirt. Yeah, I mean, so. But they make me look tan, cuz, like, all my freckles kind of touch, you know? What are you hooking up? [00:53:25] Speaker B: I was just plugging in the power. [00:53:29] Speaker A: Oh. [00:53:32] Speaker B: You know what movie I just tried to watch for the first time? And I was so. Oh, by the way, this is turning into Movie podcast part two. I was. I was so excited to watch this movie, and I got 20 minutes into it, and it was so ridiculous, I had to turn it off. [00:53:52] Speaker A: Oh, sinners. [00:53:53] Speaker B: No. Point Break. [00:53:56] Speaker A: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. I didn't see the hype around it. Don't get me wrong. [00:54:01] Speaker B: Okay? [00:54:01] Speaker A: But I love calling every California kid that looks like a surfer. Point Break. [00:54:05] Speaker B: Yeah, no, that's a great reference. But, like, it was so cheesy that, like, it was beyond the point of, like, oh, I can excuse how cheesy it is based on the time it was made or whatever. You know, it was so over the top. I. I wanted to, like. [00:54:26] Speaker A: I'll give you. I'll give you a movie. I'll give you a movie that. That's worthwhile watching. It's called Queen of the Ring. [00:54:36] Speaker B: Queen of the Ring. [00:54:38] Speaker A: True story about Mildred Burke. Now, I put it on board all his true story. So I like true stories. She was the first. What are you. What are you doing? What are you doing? Dentures. [00:54:53] Speaker B: Spitting out my Zen, man. [00:54:54] Speaker A: Oh, shit. She was the first, like, millionaire woman athlete. [00:55:00] Speaker B: Okay. [00:55:01] Speaker A: And she did it through wrestling when wrestling was illegal for women to wrestle. And it's like a true story about how this woman started her career in wrestling and was like, pretty much the first famous female wrestler. Inspirational. Like, her husband cheats on her, beats her. The odds are stacked against her because she's wrestling, like, sometimes she's wrestling men. [00:55:30] Speaker B: And is she, like, in drag? [00:55:33] Speaker A: No. [00:55:35] Speaker B: Okay. When was this made? [00:55:38] Speaker A: This was made like, this last year. [00:55:40] Speaker B: Okay. [00:55:40] Speaker A: It just came out, but it's a. Like, she was a wrestler in the 40s and 50s. And to start, like, the only way she could wrestle was to be like a circus. Like a carney, A circus character. A carny, Exactly. [00:55:55] Speaker B: Okay. [00:55:56] Speaker A: The only way she could wrestle was being a carny. And, like, so she would wrestle men. Like, hey, if you could beat her, we'll give you 25. It's 50. You know, it's a quarter to wrestler. And guys would get in and wrestler. And then, like. But at the same time, she wanted to be, oh, like, a legit wrestler. And so, like, the nwa, like, she would wrestle for them, but, like, it was in the hotel ballrooms, you know? I mean, it wasn't, like, big venues. It was just like. And she got a following, and she got girls, and other girls are wrestling, and, like, they were talking about how this is scripted, like, you're gonna win, but there's no, like, script on how you're gonna win. Like, you go out and wrestle, but, like, at the end of the day, she's the champion. Or at the end of the day, like, the heels gonna win, you know? Yeah, it was. It was. It made me want to get off the couch and go. Go run. Did. I know I did not, but it made me think about it. [00:56:56] Speaker B: That's a step. I went for a couple of runs a couple weeks ago, and I was just so sore the next day that I just couldn't bring myself to go out again. [00:57:09] Speaker A: Dude, I'm digging the soreness, dude. This is, like, week five in the gym, and I'm digging the soreness, bro. Like, however I'm taking, it's. It's weird because I'm taking, like, a week off in between because I have number four. [00:57:25] Speaker B: Okay. [00:57:27] Speaker A: And so I don't leave her to go to the gym for an hour, but any free moment I can, I'm like, yeah, I'm going to the gym. [00:57:34] Speaker B: Nice. You stretching? Doing stretches on your off days? [00:57:39] Speaker A: No, dude, I'm not a chick. Let's. Let's get that. [00:57:42] Speaker B: Okay. Yeah. [00:57:43] Speaker A: Okay. I don't stretch. I know chicks are really big on stretching. My ex Big country was always big. You got to stretch. You got to stretch, bitch. I don't need to stretch. I stretch when I walk, and it hurts, like, when I'm walking. Okay? So when it hurts, like, my arms are sore or my legs are sore, yeah. I'll, like, during my day, be like, oh, let me stretch these out so that they don't hurt as much on my next five steps. But I'm not, like, I'm not that dude in the gym with the little roller rolling out my legs. No, no, no, no, no. I'm not him. I'm going in. I'm busting some ass. I'm getting out. I mean. [00:58:19] Speaker B: All right, I'm sorry. No, that's. That's all I was gonna say is that when. When you're sore, stretching helps. It feels like it's gonna just be another workout and make you more sore, but it helps. But I wasn't Doing that. [00:58:36] Speaker A: I do stretch, like, when I'm sore, but I'm not that, dude. Like, after the workout, go and, like, do the roller and get on the mat and start stretching my arms. And. No, I'm not that guy. Like, when. When I'm at work and I'm like, oh, dude, I'm walking like a retard, then. Yeah, I, like. I'll. I'll do some stretches to, like, stretch out the muscle that's sore, because I know that's what's making me walk weird, is the fact that these muscles are so tight. [00:59:01] Speaker B: Apparently, it's the number one thing that will keep you from getting, like, decrepit when you're older. The number one thing that'll, like, keep you walking well and, like, keep you in pretty good shape even if you don't really exercise. Stretching will help, apparently. [00:59:22] Speaker A: Really? I thought it would be. And I'm being serious. I'm not being facetious. I thought it would be eating right. [00:59:30] Speaker B: Yeah. I think eating right only gets you so far if you're not, like, actually using the muscle. [00:59:39] Speaker A: Yeah, I can see that. Yeah. Because, you know, like, when people break their hips, it's not because they didn't fall because they broke their hip. They didn't break their hip because of the fall. They fell because they broke their hip, if that makes sense. Like. And that's usually comes from lack of muscle use. [00:59:58] Speaker B: Yeah. So. So you're for immigration under the right circumstances. [01:00:08] Speaker A: Yeah. I'm not against it, man. I really am not. And honestly, like, if you're. But here's the thing. If my life's in danger, I mean. I mean, when I was looking at 25 years, it wasn't an impossibility to just go down Mexico. [01:00:23] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:00:25] Speaker A: You know, it wasn't like, it was definitely an option. It was definitely like. Like, I always go down to Mexico, but I'd be free, but I wouldn't see what I live for. And what I live for is my daughters. [01:00:35] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:00:36] Speaker A: So, like, there was that, where I'm like, fuck it, I'll just do my 25. But at the same time, I'm like, well, shit, dude. Like, I'm gonna miss everything anyways. [01:00:45] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:00:46] Speaker A: Miss the graduations, miss the weddings. I'm gonna miss everything. So, like, might as well just go live free in Mexico and, you know, be a little hellraiser down there. [01:00:57] Speaker B: Yeah. I mean, you can zoom into the wedding. [01:01:02] Speaker A: You know what I'm saying? [01:01:04] Speaker B: So I've. I've kind of changed my stance on immigration just recently. Like, in the Last couple years, I. [01:01:13] Speaker A: In a positive or a negative? Like, were you like, hey, immigrants. And now you're like, hey, I'm all for it the right way, or were you like, hey, I'm all for it the right way. And now you, like, you wake up next to her and you're like, immigrant. [01:01:26] Speaker B: She's not an immigrant, But I guess immigration is ultimately to blame for her. So I guess, in a sense, you're right. But, no, I used to be totally for open borders for a couple practical reasons. You know, I. I appreciate the fact that there's people coming here who will take lower pay for things that we don't want to do. [01:01:56] Speaker A: Oh, okay, cool. Till you're out of a fucking job looking for one. All right. [01:02:01] Speaker B: See, this is why I don't tell you things. [01:02:06] Speaker A: Get that serious, though. [01:02:07] Speaker B: I know. [01:02:08] Speaker A: What if someone could do your job for cheaper then. And they got the job, but they're not legal. [01:02:12] Speaker B: I think it would be stupid of my company to pay me at a higher rate if they could get someone to do it well for cheaper. [01:02:22] Speaker A: Really? [01:02:23] Speaker B: I might be upset, but even though they're here illegally. Well, that's. That's part of where I was at at the time was like, I don't really believe in the legitimacy of the state. So if it comes to a point of, like, the state gets to decide who gets to cross an imaginary line and, you know, get safety from whatever. [01:02:47] Speaker A: The line is very real. Have you ever crossed it? [01:02:50] Speaker B: Yes, I have. I. Yes, I get the line is real, but, like, the state enforcing it is kind of imaginary. So it was that. It was also just, like, freedom of movement. Like, you know, for me, it's much more important to. To, you know, punish violence and theft then like, worry about, you know, the things leading up to that. It's. It's kind of the same thing with the drug laws, honestly. It's like, no one actually cares if people do drugs. They care about the activities that go along with that. They care about theft. I mean, like, the violence. [01:03:29] Speaker A: This is how you used to think, right? [01:03:31] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. And, I mean, I'm kind of stating my principles that have not really changed, but, like, how I was applying them before. [01:03:41] Speaker A: Because I. I see so many flaws. [01:03:44] Speaker B: Oh, thank you. Okay. I thought there was going to be a. But there just wasn't. [01:03:54] Speaker A: Because you're like, I'm not against. You know, it's like. It's like, I'm not against the drugs, but, I mean, like, dude, when. When. When. When people that aren't accounted for get locked Up. That's our dollar paying for them. [01:04:10] Speaker B: Yeah. That's another reason to not lock people up because they had a little bag of coke on them. Were they doing anything? You know, like, were they actually with anyone? Were they actually doing it? [01:04:24] Speaker A: Oh, so you're like, hey, the minority Report, like, let them go with the drugs. I'm not against this. I'm walking it out with you right now. [01:04:32] Speaker B: Sure. [01:04:33] Speaker A: Let them go with the drugs and let them commit the actual crime. The crime is not the drugs in possession. The crime is what they do after. [01:04:40] Speaker B: They take the drugs or to get the drugs. I think that's a big problem as well. [01:04:45] Speaker A: Like, you know, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. I mean, to get the drugs. Trying to lock up the guy that on the job site, it's like, hey, I got coke. You want to buy some? And I'm like, yeah, no, no, no. [01:04:56] Speaker B: You're saying the guy who's stealing to get drugs, the theft is the problem. It's not the drugs. It's just we. We really. What the drug war was all about was making this thing that was associated with actual crimes illegal to try to curb the rest of the crime. [01:05:17] Speaker A: What drug war are you talking about? [01:05:20] Speaker B: Nixon's crackdown on narcotics in 1971. [01:05:26] Speaker A: I didn't know if you're talking about Nixon or Reagan, because both. Reagan was allowing the drugs to be brought in. [01:05:32] Speaker B: Yes. [01:05:33] Speaker A: Yet saying say no to drugs. He was allowing the drugs to be brought in because we had a deal. [01:05:37] Speaker B: With Colombia dealing drugs. It's nuts. [01:05:42] Speaker A: Well. Well, we were. We were trading arms so that they could do our dirty work down there. [01:05:47] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:05:48] Speaker A: And in. In trade for the arms, for them to do our dirty work. We were allowing them to bring drugs into. Into the States. [01:05:55] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:05:56] Speaker A: Which is why Reagan has that kind of scar on him in certain communities, because they knew the. The epidemic that was taking place or the pandemic is pan. Pandemic worldwide. And epidemic, like, locally. [01:06:13] Speaker B: I'm not sure. [01:06:16] Speaker A: I think epidemic is. Is locally and pandemic is. Yes, worldwide. Pan is like the epidemic that. Yeah. Okay. So I'm here to help with the whole pan. Pan situation. [01:06:29] Speaker B: Hello. [01:06:30] Speaker A: That's. Hello, Miss Lady. That was the issue within the black communities at the time was, you know, Reagan was allowing the drugs to come in because he was trading arms for them and having Colombia do our dirty work when. But at the same time, you know, Ms. Reagan's over here saying, hey, dare and say no to drugs. [01:06:55] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. Which is nuts. But that. That's politics for you. So I. I was Kind of just like, I don't give a shit if people come here, you know, as long as they're not hurting people or stealing. Like, it doesn't. You know, another thing is, like, demographics. Like, we're. We're not having enough kids to sustain our society into the next generation. Like, our, our population. [01:07:29] Speaker A: So hold up. So you're like, hey, I'm just gonna put this in the, the strongest way possible. Hey, there's not a lot of clean water being produced, so let's just let the muddy water in more and more and more and more. [01:07:42] Speaker B: Well, if. [01:07:43] Speaker A: So that way we have water. [01:07:44] Speaker B: If the. [01:07:45] Speaker A: As long as we have water, I don't care if it's muddy. [01:07:47] Speaker B: If we're talking about dehydration that'll lead to our death, then, yeah, bring the muddy water. And for sure it's better than no water, which. [01:07:57] Speaker A: So here's the thing, though. [01:07:58] Speaker B: Hold on. You're not letting me finish anything. You were just arguing with half finished points. My point is our. Without immigration, our population would cut in half in a generation, probably, and our society would collapse. [01:08:20] Speaker A: But why can't we just, like, bring in, I don't know, some Brazilian women? [01:08:24] Speaker B: Okay, but that's still immigration. [01:08:28] Speaker A: Who gives a shit? But, well, now we got our. Now let's pick and choose. You know, I mean, like, like, if. [01:08:34] Speaker B: You'Re so what you're. You're picking and choosing. [01:08:38] Speaker A: If we're the captain of the team, I think we should be able to pick and choose. I think Trump would be very on board with picking some Brazilian women to come over to the States. Maybe I'm some Portuguese. Here's the thing. I'm not in. I'm. I don't disagree with you because I think we are hypocrites. Because this is kind of what this country was founded on. [01:08:56] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:08:58] Speaker A: I mean, the whole East Coast. I mean, you have your burrows of Italians in Chinatown and all that, because that's how they were. Like, they all came over and made those. Those areas. Those areas. [01:09:11] Speaker B: Yeah. And they danced and sang songs in the street. [01:09:16] Speaker A: Yeah. But now we're like, hey, you can't speak our language and you stink. So, no, you can't come over. [01:09:20] Speaker B: Every Puerto Rican is a lousy chicken. [01:09:28] Speaker A: Was that a real song? [01:09:29] Speaker B: That's west side Story. [01:09:33] Speaker A: Well, I have not seen that yet. Dude. [01:09:36] Speaker B: I don't know if that's in the new one. That's the old one. [01:09:40] Speaker A: I haven't seen any of them. I haven't seen either of them. And I tried. I tried. I Tried. I'm not gonna lie. I tried. I couldn't get past the first dance scene. Dude. [01:09:49] Speaker B: I'm not big on musicals. [01:09:54] Speaker A: If they're good, I am. I do like Hamilton. I do like the first half of Sound of Music. I can't make it through Wicked. I couldn't make it through La La Land. [01:10:04] Speaker B: I liked La La Land. I've never seen any of the other ones. You mentioned you would. Yeah, yeah, yeah. [01:10:12] Speaker A: Hamilton's good. I didn't like Hamilton. Like, number number three used to watch Hamilton on YouTube religiously. And she'd be playing it in the car and I'm like, oh, my gosh. Like, just fucking turn that. Like, turn it to something else. I don't want to hear that. I wouldn't say that, but I thought it. And then for her birthday one year, I took her on a date to go see Hamilton. I didn't realize how many rap references were in there. Like, they have the. The infamous. They have instead of Ten Crack Commandments, it's the ten ten dual Commandments, but they sing it just like the Ten Crack Commandments. They have a lot of hip hop references that I didn't realize were in there. And I had a greater appreciation for it after watching it live. Now I can actually watch it on the Disney, whatever, streaming service. But, like, for people who haven't seen it live, I could totally get why they are like, fucking turn this off, you know? [01:11:15] Speaker B: Yeah. I just hate that. Of all the founding Fathers, you picked the worst one to make a musical about. [01:11:24] Speaker A: Why? Why is he the worst? [01:11:25] Speaker B: Let's put it this way. I read a book and the title of the book was How Alexander Hamilton Screwed Up America. [01:11:35] Speaker A: Yeah, but I mean, like, honestly, how is he the worst? He did cheat on his wife. I get that. He was homosexual. I get that. I don't agree with either one of those. [01:11:46] Speaker B: However, he was. [01:11:47] Speaker A: He did write most of the. I believe he had a threesome with Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton, and one other guy. Whoever was in the room where they're watching, I want to be in the room with whoever was in that room. Those three guys. But at the same time, he did write, like, 57 articles of our Constitution. [01:12:13] Speaker B: So he. He wrote the. What was it? The. Yeah, the Articles of something. Not the Articles of Confederation. It was the. He wrote it anonymous. Anonymously. But it was basically the Federalist Papers. That's what it was. He wrote the Federalist Papers, which was an argument to the states of why you should adopt this Constitution that we're working on. And basically he promised in those letters that the way it was going to work was basically, the Constitution defines this and we're not going to do anything outside of this. So this is what the government does. Nothing outside of this is going to happen. And so after all the states ratified the Constitution, he immediately started interpreting it the other way, which was we can do anything that's not forbidden. So like, that would be the difference between, like, we're only going to do what's in the Constitution versus, like, well, the Constitution doesn't say anything about health care, so we're going to have universal health care, that kind of thing. And you can actually trace from Alexander Hamilton to his protege to the first Supreme Court justice all the way to the present day of like, how they interpreted this. And that same method of interpretation has led to everything you hate in the country today. Basically, you hate gay marriage. You can draw a straight line from, from Alexander Hamilton to gay marriage, any. Anything. [01:13:49] Speaker A: The Supreme Court, Alexander Hamilton was gay. So it makes sense that there's gay marriage. [01:13:52] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. You didn't like La La Land? [01:13:59] Speaker A: Oh, no, I didn't. [01:14:00] Speaker B: You did. I did. I sure did. I ain't gay. [01:14:06] Speaker A: Past the, like, past the, the traffic jam. [01:14:12] Speaker B: That's the opening scene anyways. [01:14:14] Speaker A: Yeah, I know it is. That's what I couldn't get past. [01:14:17] Speaker B: But yeah, I mean, but they're not going to do a Thomas Jefferson musical because he. [01:14:24] Speaker A: No, because he better put women in the sequel. [01:14:27] Speaker B: What? [01:14:30] Speaker A: That's a Hamilton reference. And when he speak to Thomas Jefferson, make sure he puts women in the sequel. [01:14:36] Speaker B: See, I, I hate this musical. I've never seen it, but I hate it. [01:14:47] Speaker A: It's a good musical. [01:14:48] Speaker B: What was I saying? Oh, yeah, you were straw manning my former stance on immigration. [01:14:58] Speaker A: But all I'm saying is like, so what's your new stance? [01:15:01] Speaker B: Okay, so now the way that I think about it is like ideally and, and there's ideally and then there's reality. So I'll speak ideally. Everything would just be private property. We wouldn't have governments. Private property would just define the laws and, and the rules. [01:15:20] Speaker A: Let's get to reality. Let's skip the. [01:15:22] Speaker B: Well, it's. [01:15:23] Speaker A: I mean, like, the ideals are important. There's no government. [01:15:26] Speaker B: The principles are important for how I think about this. So, so that's ideal. So that's why it's like, well, fuck it, dude. If a property owner wanted someone to come from Mexico and work for him, that property owner should have all the right in the world to bring this guy in. No government should be able to tell this guy that he. He can't come here, but that's not reality. So in reality, you know, they get welfare. I got a big problem with that. They, you know, there's all these, like, public benefits going to immigrants. Okay. And I think we all kind of have an issue with that, but the reality is that those benefits aren't going away anytime soon. And it's not private property. It's mostly public property. So then what are you going to do about public property? Well, if anyone should have a right over how the public property operates, it's the taxpayers. Right? And I. I'm not like a big democracy guy, but, like, that kind of makes sense for the system that we're currently living in. And if, you know, a large majority of the country is not down with this open immigration policy, then I guess, you know, you could make the argument that we probably shouldn't be allowing it, especially when they're getting benefits and, you know, squatting on public property and all that stuff. So. So ultimately, it's just sort of come down to, like, it's just an unsustainable thing, you know, especially under the Biden administration when we were letting tens of millions in. And, you know, also. [01:17:00] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:17:00] Speaker B: Also the fact that there were, like, confirmed Middle Eastern terrorists coming across that border, you know, so it's like. [01:17:08] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:17:08] Speaker B: So it just. It gets. It's so much more nuanced than just the principle of what I believe, which is that, yeah, this government doesn't really have any right to tell you where you can and can't go. But that's not the full story. And so, yeah, I did kind of have to just change where I. Where I am in reality. Although, ultimately, yes, I would love to see welfare abolished and see everything run by private property. And then I don't think immigration would be an issue. I don't give a if America is not white anymore. You know, I don't give a if we're predominantly Hispanic or whatever. [01:17:46] Speaker A: I. [01:17:46] Speaker B: You know, I don't have. [01:17:47] Speaker A: I don't either, man. I love the Hispanic culture. I love. I love Mexican women. [01:17:52] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:17:53] Speaker A: Not European. I love European Mexicans as well. I'm not gonna lie. [01:17:56] Speaker B: The Italians. [01:17:58] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:17:58] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:17:59] Speaker A: I love European Mexicans as well, dude. [01:18:01] Speaker B: European Mexicans. The Italians. [01:18:11] Speaker A: Yeah, I get what you're saying, but that was my issues. Like, you open it. You open it for one. You open it for all, and not all is for us. [01:18:22] Speaker B: Yeah, well, I think we can see that pretty close in Los Angeles, where they're flying Mexican flags and burning American flags. That's fucking nuts. [01:18:33] Speaker A: You're. [01:18:34] Speaker B: You're fighting. Yeah, but that's only nuts to go. And you're gonna burn the American flag and fly the Mexican flag? Like. Like, if the CIA was trying to do a psyop, they couldn't do a better job. [01:18:47] Speaker A: Yeah, but at the same time, I mean, like, I love. I love their. Their. It's weird. I love their patriotism because, like, that you would see in the south burning every other flag but the American one. I don't. I don't. I wasn't raised with that kind of patriotism. I love America, but, like, I wasn't raised with like, the America. You know what I mean? [01:19:17] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:19:17] Speaker A: Like, there's difference between America and America. I wasn't raised with America kind of like, thing, but. Yeah, during the Biden administration, a lot of those guys coming over were not Mexican. [01:19:31] Speaker B: No, there were. I mean, there were African immigrants coming over. There were Colombians. There were. [01:19:37] Speaker A: I mean, a lot, A lot. A lot of the ones checking into Arizona were Iranians. And I'm not nothing against Iranians for our Iranian demographic or I don't know if we have one or two or even a half, but, you know, they had tattoos of AKs on their arms and M16s. And it's like, you guys. You guys are like, already well versed in military tactics. Like, I don't know if your sleeper sells. [01:20:11] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:20:13] Speaker A: You know, so the water gets real muddy when you don't do it legally, when you don't do the proper background checks. And the only reason I think we need to do proper background checks is because we're really hated again. I don't care if we're not all white. I don't give a shit. I made the cut. I don't. Nobody else has me. I don't give a. You know, I mean, like. [01:20:37] Speaker B: I made the cut. God has blessed me. I. I'm fine if I was the last chopper out of nom, you know what I mean? [01:20:49] Speaker A: Like, but that's where it's at. Like, I don't really care if everybody else is a different race. Like, I love that. I love that about la. I love. [01:20:57] Speaker B: Well, yeah, we grew up in cult in areas that had heavy Mexican culture, you know, like our. I was hoping you finished Spanish, Mexican cult. Yeah, yeah. [01:21:12] Speaker A: You're like, we grew up in Colt. I'm like, whoa, I hope he really finishes this. [01:21:16] Speaker B: But, like, our street signs are Spanish. You know what I mean? Like, so it's like we don't have a hang up with that for the most part. But, like, there are a lot of guys who are like, no, no, this is a white country for white people, for sure. [01:21:31] Speaker A: And, I mean, part. Part of what I didn't like was, you know, there was a time I was struggling where we went for. For, you know, whatever food stamps, whatever it is, and we didn't make the cut. They were like, now you. The. Like, you make. You make over 38,000. You can't have food stamps. [01:21:50] Speaker B: 38,000? [01:21:52] Speaker A: Yeah, dude. And I'm like, we barely make over 38,000. Like, why can't we make the cut? But yet all these other people online were making the cut because they worked the system. They made the same amount I made being unemployed. But yet, maybe they didn't report the Jose that lived in their house. Maybe they didn't report the other guy that lived in their house. I didn't want to live with 10 people. I wanted to live with just my family, my daughters and my wife. That was it. [01:22:22] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:22:26] Speaker A: So that's where I have the issue. The issue. I don't care if they have all the benefits I have, as long as they're legally documented. [01:22:36] Speaker B: And, like, how hard. [01:22:37] Speaker A: I don't care if they're over here illegally documented. Well, I don't care if they're over here illegally documented. Just don't give them the same benefits I have. [01:22:45] Speaker B: Yeah. And I think that's where, like, a lot of. A lot of the issues are coming from, is that resources are finite. So, like, you know, we don't have as much of a space problem as people make it out to be. But, like, in Los Angeles, there's definitely a space problem. You know, there's. You know, they're running out of water. I mean, like, everything is just so limited. And, you know, to bring people. More and more people into the country every day and then try to spread those resources over, you know, a wider amount of people. [01:23:22] Speaker A: That's gonna happen no matter what, though. [01:23:24] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:23:26] Speaker A: Yeah, it is, though. Like, but. [01:23:28] Speaker B: But what. [01:23:29] Speaker A: What if we let everybody in? We're still gonna figure. Try and figure out, where do we get water from if we don't let everybody in. It doesn't mean they don't have a water issue in Mexico. [01:23:38] Speaker B: Sure. I just. I'm just saying I understand the fear of letting in tens of millions of people when you're already kind of struggling with resources, such as we are. I don't think it's as big of an issue as they make it out to be, but, you know, I understand the basic economics of it is like, there is a limited amount of space. There's a limited amount of food. There's a limited. You know, and so. Yeah, you, you. [01:24:06] Speaker A: Here's an idea. Stop building fucking surf parks. [01:24:12] Speaker B: Surf problem. [01:24:13] Speaker A: Don't build a fucking surf park in fucking water problem. [01:24:16] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:24:17] Speaker A: You know, I mean, no more water parks. [01:24:19] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:24:19] Speaker A: Okay, we solved some of the water issue. Now when it comes to money. Money issue. Fuck. You know what I mean? Like, we've always had a money issue. We've had a money issue since the 70s. We've always raised our cap as a nation. Okay, now we owe 17 trillion. Whoa, let's not go for 18. Oh, we're at 19 million. Okay. Let's not go over 20. We just raised the roof. [01:24:42] Speaker B: Yeah. And not in a fun way, but we. [01:24:46] Speaker A: Well, exactly. But we also dictate how we raise the roof. We could. We could definitely lower the cost of. [01:24:54] Speaker B: I don't know. I don't know. I think by increasing them. [01:24:58] Speaker A: But our salaries would all get cut, you know, when the roof got raised was when credit cards came out in the 70s. [01:25:05] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:25:05] Speaker A: The house cost before the 70s was what you made in a year. The house cost now is what you make in like three, four, five, six years. But it all went up once we got credit cards. [01:25:17] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:25:18] Speaker A: Once they started giving out credit is when house prices went up. [01:25:21] Speaker B: Yeah, it's. It's fraction. [01:25:23] Speaker A: What's that movie? [01:25:24] Speaker B: Fractional reserve banking. [01:25:27] Speaker A: So, like, there's a movie that talks about it. It has it. It has it all explained in the end. Credit. [01:25:33] Speaker B: The big short. [01:25:34] Speaker A: It's. Is that what it is? I wanted to say it was the big something. [01:25:39] Speaker B: Yeah, the big short. It's about the housing crisis. [01:25:43] Speaker A: Yeah. [01:25:44] Speaker B: With. [01:25:44] Speaker A: I think, exactly what it is. Might be. Yeah, might be that one. And then they. They have like a diagram, like, during the credits of, like, how this went up. Probably show. Probably. So. [01:26:00] Speaker B: So how it works is that. So, like, we. We talk about inflation when, like, the Federal Reserve prints more money, so to speak. They don't, like, literally print it, but they increase the zeros on the screen. But, like, the banks do a lot of it because what they do is they're allowed. They're allowed to only keep 10% of what's actually in the bank. In the bank. And they go much lower than that 10%. So if you put in a hundred bucks in your account, they're technically allowed to lend out $90 of that and you've got $100 in your account, but 90 of that is also lent out to Someone now. So now there's $190 in the money supply, but there's really only 100 because that's really only your hundred that you put in your account. And so they're doing that on the scale of hundreds of millions of dollars. So credit actually causes inflation, maybe worse than. Than printing money does, because it's doing the same exact thing. It's increasing the money supply. [01:27:13] Speaker A: Nick, I'm not gonna lie. You're probably one of the smartest guys I know. Now, whether this shit is bullshit or not, I don't know. But you sound smart as fuck. [01:27:25] Speaker B: You might be completely talking out of your ass right now, but I like it. [01:27:33] Speaker A: Like, that's how I feel. Like when my. When number one was like, hey, you do politics? Like, no. Really smart on politics. Like it. I would just be sitting there and you're like, I really don't know that much. You're. You're a smart cat, dude. [01:27:47] Speaker B: Thanks, man. I wish I knew something useful. I wish I knew how to build. [01:27:55] Speaker A: Things in the wrong industry. You're just in the wrong industry, bro. Like, your is useful. You're just not in the industry that uses it. Yeah, yeah, I know how to build things. Therefore, I'm a construction worker. Bing. I just nailed the. That I know how to do, you know? [01:28:11] Speaker B: Well, let's look at our paycheck side by side and let me know who's smarter. [01:28:19] Speaker A: Dude. But that's why, dude, you just have to get in the right industry, bro. [01:28:24] Speaker B: Yeah, I like my industry. I like tech. I don't think I'm. [01:28:29] Speaker A: You do. You do like tech, but you'd probably be probably more successful if you went into some type of money pull. Political. Not so much political, but, like, you know, enough politics to maybe manage other people's money in a way that would benefit them and benefit you. [01:28:50] Speaker B: I was thinking about getting a real estate license when I get home. [01:28:55] Speaker A: I think you should. [01:28:55] Speaker B: Only takes about nine weeks. [01:28:59] Speaker A: I think you should. [01:29:00] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:29:01] Speaker A: You probably spent more than that in barber school. [01:29:05] Speaker B: You know, actually. Probably. I think it's actually pretty cheap to. To do real estate online. Barber School was 3,500, which was not that bad for a. [01:29:18] Speaker A: No. You were in a room of people that probably talk shit on you all day and you didn't even know it. [01:29:23] Speaker B: No, I knew it. No. You know how I. How I knew? I mean, it probably, but not as bad as I would think in my fragile ego, is that, like, when certain guys, like Arturo. Arturo would leave and then, like, all the other cholos would like, gather around me and talk on him. It's like, all right, you guys are either doing the same thing when I leave or I'm in the group. It's one of those two. I was just talking about this. This cat today for some reason, because we. Oh, we were talking about cholos at work. I don't know why, but Mark Alvarez. [01:30:07] Speaker A: Because of ice? [01:30:08] Speaker B: Yeah, probably. Oh, yeah, that's right. Because my co worker, Jack, told that liberal white girl that I was leaving the company to go work for ice. [01:30:20] Speaker A: Nice. You know, the crazy thing is, is as hot as it is out here, none of the Mexicans want ice. [01:30:27] Speaker B: I ask them, you're wrong. [01:30:31] Speaker A: Hey, you guys want ice in your water? [01:30:32] Speaker B: They're like, nope, nope. Not even. Don't even ask me. [01:30:36] Speaker A: Me. We were. [01:30:38] Speaker B: We were talk. So I started talking about Mark from barber school. He was just this hilarious cholo dude who just. Born and raised in Santa Ana. And this one time, he. He would always ask me random questions. We were just sitting at a table, and he just stops. Just like, stop. Like a dog would stop. You know how, like, dogs just all of a sudden, like, their head just thinking about something. He just goes, nick, why did Judas betray Jesus? It's like, all right, let's get into this. I got, like, seven answers. [01:31:17] Speaker A: Speaking about getting into it. Yep, speaking about getting into it. I invited a guy to my Bible study on Tuesdays, right Now, mind you, it's every other Tuesday. I invite this guy. He invited me to his birthday. I've only met him once, but he must have took to me. He invited me to his birthday. It was only, like, six of us. And he goes. And I tell him, you know, he's talking some Christian lingo. So I said, hey, look, we got a Bible study. You're welcome to come. His first response was, I'll tell you what. For the first one, I'll just be quiet, okay? He goes, you know, so I'll just hear you. I'll be quiet. I'm like, all right. So I'm already thinking, like, okay, this dude, he's gonna be a problem boy. I wasn't even prepared. I open up, and I'm like, all right, today we're gonna be in Romans 3. Let me give you the context of Romans 3. Paul's just coming out telling the gentiles and the Jews that, like, all are guilty before God. You know, there's. There. You know, the only difference, the only special thing about the Jews is that they had the oracles of God, the prophets of God, the promise of the coming Messiah, yada, yada, yada. This guy goes, do you want my notes to do your study? [01:32:39] Speaker B: Not really. [01:32:41] Speaker A: Yeah, I spent two weeks studying it, so I think I'm good. You sure? Because I don't know if you agree my writing, but you're welcome to use my notes. No, I'm good until we go through the study, dude. [01:32:55] Speaker B: I'm cool. [01:32:58] Speaker A: Dude. Before. Before I even get to verses, he's trying to, like, get. Get ahead of me. [01:33:04] Speaker B: So. And this is the first Bible study. This is the first one where he promised to be quiet. Holy crap, this dude is a problem. [01:33:12] Speaker A: I'm about to get some verses, and I'm going through, like, it was like, 3, 10, through 21, where Paul's quoting the Old Testament. He's using, like, Isaiah, psalms, and some other things, and he's going through basically things that we do. Like, the first couple verses are, I want to say about our speech. Then it was about our actions. And it was. So he's going through this dude, trying to get ahead of me. He's going through them, and I'm like, well, I'm about to get there, you know, Like. So then Bible study kind of comes to a close on chapter three, and he starts asking questions, and one of the guys is like, well, you know, you know, from somehow pastors and being a pastor and not. Not being an adulterer, like, being a pastor and not cheating comes into it. And he's like, so you're. You're. You're telling me a pastor, like, what's the difference? Like, you tell me if you cheat, you shouldn't be a pastor. And I'm like, fuck, yeah. I'm telling you that, like, you know, like, God holds them to a higher accountability. Worse is it for you on the day of Sodom and Gomorrah, or worse is for you on the day of judgment than it was for Sodom and Gomorrah? There's different levels to, like, punishment and. What's up? [01:34:26] Speaker B: Well, I hear this a lot. [01:34:28] Speaker A: I meant Paco. What's up, Paco? [01:34:31] Speaker B: I didn't even notice that you used my name. I hear this a lot, and I think what we mean is that there's a higher accountability for that position. Not like. Not like these individuals have, like, a higher moral code. No, that's how there's a. [01:34:49] Speaker A: There's a different accountability. [01:34:51] Speaker B: Yeah. For the position. [01:34:52] Speaker A: That's what I was trying to tell him. [01:34:53] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:34:54] Speaker A: Yeah. And that's what I was trying to tell him. And he's like, so you're telling me, like, yo. So, like, you know, like, God doesn't forgive, and he's going through this. And I'm like, I get what you're saying, dude, but, like, if you're living a life of. Living a life of adultery, no, you should. You should not be a pastor. You're. You're not. You're not fit to be a pastor. [01:35:12] Speaker B: All right, just wipe out 90 of the pastors then, I guess. [01:35:17] Speaker A: Yeah. And he's like. He's like, I just don't see that. I just don't see that. So he's going through this, and he ends it with, like, now, mind you, we're on Romans 3. And he goes, do you think Judas went to heaven? [01:35:28] Speaker B: Oh, my gosh. [01:35:32] Speaker A: I'm like, oh, dude. I was like, do I think. Yeah, I think Jesus went to heaven. I think he showed remorse. I think, you know, like, you know, if. If you're in God's hand, you're. You know, Judas was no different from the other apostles or disciples. Like, he did works like, you know, like, yeah, he messed up, but, like, if you're saying Jesus out of heaven, then, you know, someone who steals or murders is also out of heaven. He committed a sin. It didn't. It wasn't the unforgiving sin. He committed sin. And so this other guy speaks up, and he's like, dude, you keep talking at us. These are like, most of my group is new believers. He's like, you keep talking at us, and it's just not sitting right with me. And I just. And the guy starts, like. He goes, let me finish. I just want to say, like, you're coming in here. You're really aggressive. You're talking at us. It's not sitting right with me. I'm gonna excuse myself. I do want to apologize, but, like. Like, this just isn't rubbing my spirit, right? And, like, so the guy gets up and leaves. This guy has the audacity to be like, yeah, he's a runner. I've met guys like him. He's a runner. He must come from, like, a. Were you from a Calvinist church? I was like, like, man, needless to say, he's not coming back to any future groups. [01:36:53] Speaker B: Damn, dude. He was Chris Choi reincarnated. [01:36:59] Speaker A: Dude, I forgot about Chris Choi. Yeah, you can leave that name in there. Yeah, I think everybody needs to meet Chris Choi, bro. [01:37:07] Speaker B: Yeah, he's alive. He watches my Instagram stories every once in a while, so I know he's around. [01:37:16] Speaker A: Does he? Yeah, man. What's he look like, now you still look all God. [01:37:20] Speaker B: I think he still has the same profile picture that he had, like, 10 years ago. [01:37:25] Speaker A: So that kid, bro, man. [01:37:29] Speaker B: Yeah. That was good for him, though. [01:37:31] Speaker A: I mean, honestly, he had every. He had every path to choose, and yet he still chose to go to church. [01:37:36] Speaker B: You know what? You're right. You're right. I was gonna say that B. B was magnetic for, like, problematic personalities, myself included. I'm sure some people would. Would include me in that group. But, like, he just had such a heart for difficult people. And, you know, as I'm saying this out loud, I'm. I'm seeing how this applies to myself. But, like, it. It just some weeks, man, there would be three or four cats that are just bringing the shindig to the ground because of the random shit they're throwing out, and it just. It wore on me sometimes. But, like, he just had such a heart. For him, it was, like, hard. It was almost infectious. Totally. [01:38:26] Speaker A: Here's the thing. Was it difficult, people, or was it different thinkers? [01:38:32] Speaker B: I mean, Chris was difficult that it went beyond one, like, Bible study etiquette. [01:38:38] Speaker A: But I don't think you were difficult. I think you're just a different thinker. You see the word and you're like, hey, look, like, it just doesn't look like what I'm going to church with. Like, I see what the Word's saying, and I see what I'm going to church with, and I just don't see. Like, I have some questions, and I think that's totally. Okay. Let's have some questions. Let's talk about it. Yeah, like, this dude brought up the whole church thing, and I was like, look, first of all, church is a 501C3 pastor gets paid through the 501C3. It's a business. It's. You know, and that started with B, like, conversing with B about church. Church ideology. What is it? What do we have? What is it? Yeah, it's. You know, when. When Covid hit. I mean, pastors were. Were told to submit, like, to not say certain things if you did. Like, you know, to not meet. If you did, there were consequences. And, I mean, Texas took it as far as you had to, like, submit your sermons and stuff, and it was just like, no, man. Why would I do that? Yeah, why, why, why? Why? Am I gonna be dictated by the government? [01:39:41] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. It's a. It's a massive issue. Do you. I don't want to change the subject if you still had something on that. [01:39:51] Speaker A: But I have nothing, bro. I pretty much summed up 14 pages in two sentences. [01:39:57] Speaker B: All right. [01:39:58] Speaker A: Crime rates lower. [01:40:02] Speaker B: I. I get discouraged sometimes because it just feels like every pastor or like, a lot of my, like, former partners and ministry, mostly pastors. It just seems like eventually they all fall and they all leave ministry, you know? Do you. Do you, like, get that feeling sometimes where it's like, dude, I can count on one. We burned out, like, the faithful dudes who are, like, still pastors who haven't had any kind of controversy, you know. [01:40:41] Speaker A: We burned out after RBC because of that. [01:40:43] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. [01:40:44] Speaker A: I mean, like, we went to. We were a part of the Passion for Christ movement up in la. Well, let's start with Calvary. We were at Calvary rsm and we had that whole incident. So then we go to Christchurch. They kind of, you know, brought life back into us. Both their pastors fell. Then we transition into the Bridge. Not the bridge. Mission Hills. Mission Hills turns into the Bridge, which was a four square church. We don't really agree with their teachings or their. Their bylaws. And so we left there. We go to. What was that church master's plan? That whole shindig took place with stuff like that. And then we transitioned to rbc. And both those pastors have, you know, a lot of smoke. And where there's smoke, there's fire. [01:41:43] Speaker B: Where there's. Hold on, hold on. Where there's pedo smoke, there's pedo fire. [01:41:53] Speaker A: So we left there and honestly, that was, like, really where we stopped going to church. And then we move out here. We didn't really. We tried out churches, but we weren't. We weren't like. We were in California, dude. It was. We were off, you know, and. And so there was, though. That whole. That whole thing kind of was. Yes, it kind of was there, but I can't. I can't point fingers. I can, but I can't. I can't point fingers because I was an adulterer, active adulterer, but I can't point fingers because whenever I had offers to be in ministry, I never took it. You know? Like, I remember having this conversation with JP at rbc, and he was like, why don't you, you know, be a pastor? And I said, because I'm disqualified. And he was like, what do you mean? I was like, my sin disqualifies me. That's as far as I'm gonna go. I don't want to go any further than that, but I know my sin disqualifies me. I wish other men would have the same Fear of the Lord in the same sense. Like, I'm. I'm not gonna do that. So. So, yeah, I believe there. There is a lot of churches like that, but I'm not gonna throw the baby out with the bath water. [01:43:05] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:43:06] Speaker A: You know, I'm not gonna. [01:43:07] Speaker B: I'm. I'm like, still. I'm still very much a church. [01:43:10] Speaker A: I can't look at fallen man. [01:43:12] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. No, it's just like. And, you know, these controversies. Some of them were like, yep. Saw that coming. Some of them were like, yeah, I don't know if I believe that. You know, some. Some. Some pastors in my life were clearly. What's the word? Like, unfairly accused of things with no evidence. And, you know, but. But they still got caught up in a situation regardless, you know, And. And where there's smoke, there's fire. [01:43:46] Speaker A: At the end of the day, dude, I. I know I was. I know one of my. I don't know if it's a gift or if it's just how it's built, but, like, I will never sit on the sidelines and not speak up. Yeah, I will. I will always take the first bullet. And so when I see something that isn't doctrinally correct and you're gonna stand behind a pulpit, I have no problem calling you out. I have no problem being kicked out of a church. You know, like, big country started going to this new church, and she wanted my. My daughters to go. And so my daughters went, and they came home, and I was like, so how was it? And they were like, they have a woman lead pastor, and that's who taught today. And she was very emotional. She cried a lot, and she was talking about certain things, and she has kind of made it like, this thing. And I asked my daughter's boyfriend, so, what'd you think of it? He goes, I felt very uncomfortable. And I asked my daughter, what do you. What do you think she was? Man, I, like, I wanted to leave, but I didn't want to get up. I said, good thing I didn't go with you guys, because I would have got up, and I would have said some. Like, I would have on my way out. At least the 10 people in my vicinity would have known. Paul talks about women not being pastors. You know what I mean? [01:45:03] Speaker B: You would have been whispering it on your way out. You could have just been, like, leaning down. Leaning down. Dude, people, this is unbiblical. This is unbiblical. I'm leaving. [01:45:11] Speaker A: No, I would have definitely got up and be like, no, this totally Goes against, you know, whatever, the, whatever passage Paul talks about it, you know, this definitely goes against first Timothy, I'm out of here. Can't be a part of this. Yeah, I'm not going to sit and, and sit under this. I would have definitely left and not, not partaken in it. And I've dated women. I've dated women or talked to women. I should say it's a better one is I've talked to women and once they tell me that they go to a church where like the lead, the, the, the, there's male pastors, but the, the main person is this prophetess and she preaches over my life and did it. I say, hey, look, I, like, I, I've. I first of all do my research and look at reviews on the church and then I, I let them know, hey, look, like, I know this ain't going to work because you clearly have a different biblical view than I have. Yeah. And that's honestly, like, if you want to make the cut, you got the same view. If you don't have the same view, I know we're not going to work because God's very clear. Don't date a woman of a different belief system because she will always turn your head. [01:46:14] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:46:15] Speaker A: I mean, Satan went through the female to get to the male. You know, like in the Garden of Eden, he went to Eve, he didn't go to Adam. You know, same with David. Like, all, all males fall from their, their female that they follow Samson, Delilah. I mean, like, it's repeated over and over. So when, yeah, so when I see that, I'm just like, I can't, I can't do that. I. Because I know, I know my weakness, you know, I know I'm gonna want to please my, my partner. And if you're following a different God than I'm following, I mean, like the lawyer that worked for T Mobile, she was Muslim, you know, and every time Donald Trump got brought up, it went into Christians and then it went into Jesus and it was like. And then I'm sitting there talking about, you know, defending Christ and I'm like, this ain't gonna work. I'm gonna tell you right now, this ain't gonna work. Yeah, I can't do this every time for the rest of my life. Like, if, if you think Jesus was a good teacher, then you're, you're. Whatever your doctrine is, whether it's Islam or whatever, you're off. Because the dude taught he was God, so he can't be a good teacher. He was a Crazy teacher. He's either crazy or he was God because that's what he taught. Yeah. So, like, for you to say he's a good teacher, then you have to believe what he says. And what he says was, he is God. So. [01:47:38] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:47:38] Speaker A: I don't know how you get around that. [01:47:42] Speaker B: Yeah. You know, the only time I've ever walked out of a church service was a church launch that I was invited to by a close friend, and he. [01:47:59] Speaker A: Him? Was it him? [01:48:01] Speaker B: No. CF cp. CF older brother, W. [01:48:15] Speaker A: All right, keep going. I'll figure it out. Keep going, though. [01:48:19] Speaker B: Short King. He. He was one of the pastors at this little church plant, and he invited me to the. The church launch. So I think it was Saturday nights, and it was just so over the top. Charismatic. And like, the fourth time that he, like, asked everyone to, like, stand up and repeat a thing. I just looked at my girlfriend at the time and I was like, let's get the out of here. We just walked out right in the middle of everything. It's the only time I've ever done that. [01:48:51] Speaker A: Was that Bigfoot? [01:48:53] Speaker B: Yeah. Yeah. [01:48:56] Speaker A: Damn. I just. I ain't going to lie. I imagined her walking out like a Sasquatch. [01:49:00] Speaker B: Yeah. Stomping away. [01:49:01] Speaker A: You know that picture. You know that picture where they caught Bigfoot, like, taking. Taking steps? Like, I could just imagine her, like, arm swinging, just like Jack linking it. You know what I mean? Yeah. [01:49:13] Speaker B: You could tell she had walked a lot that day because her knuckles were scraped. [01:49:22] Speaker A: That's fucked up. Yeah. [01:49:24] Speaker B: Yeah. Good friend. I mean. And you know what? To. To be fair, he later came to me and he was like, dude, you were right about all that crazy doctrinal shit. And I don't believe that stuff anymore. And from what I understand, he's part of a much more doctrinally sound church plant now. Someone I hope to reconnect with when I'm back in California. [01:49:49] Speaker A: Hey, just bleep it. What's his name? Oh, dude, you should have said he had three brothers. I was thinking of double brothers. You should say there's three of them. [01:50:00] Speaker B: Yeah, I thought W would be enough. But, yeah, he. Yeah, he started a church plant with the chick. This, like, female pastor who ran a school out of ccrsm. And he married her daughter. [01:50:18] Speaker A: Why? Ty? [01:50:21] Speaker B: No. [01:50:23] Speaker A: Because her daughter was big. I thought he would have better taste than that. [01:50:27] Speaker B: No, I don't know who Ty is. Oh, no. Did you know? Passed away just recently. [01:50:39] Speaker A: The lady or the man? I mean, I would imagine so was a heart attack. [01:50:48] Speaker B: I don't know I never heard. [01:50:50] Speaker A: Probably was a heart attack. Probably was a hard tag. [01:50:52] Speaker B: Probably. [01:50:53] Speaker A: I'm surprised her daughter lives along. [01:50:56] Speaker B: Yeah, she was about my mom's age, so. Thanks. Now that. Yeah, I just, I just remembered that. But no, her name was. And it was way after both of our times, but she ran us school out of CCRSM and kind of worked for her for a minute and then they started this church together and it was wild. So then God told him that he had to marry her daughter and let's just say is a bit of a hero of mine, you know, in. [01:51:42] Speaker A: Let's just call him CF so that we don't have to believe a lot. CF's a big hero of yours. [01:51:47] Speaker B: Yeah, a little bit. A little bit. Because he has dated just some of the most gorgeous women I've ever seen in my life. [01:51:57] Speaker A: He. [01:51:58] Speaker B: He had quite a run and he did, he did. And this, this chick that he married, it's just doesn't live up to the career, you know what I mean? Like, his, his retirement was just not quite up to snuff with his career. [01:52:16] Speaker A: His retirement wasn't what the resume stated. [01:52:19] Speaker B: Yeah. But then when he kind of had this like doctrinal like heart change, she totally took his side and the parents wrote her off. So it was, it was basically like him and her against the rest of the family and she sided with him. And they, I mean, they seem very. [01:52:40] Speaker A: Happy now, so that's really not a bad thing. [01:52:44] Speaker B: Nah, nah. [01:52:47] Speaker A: I mean, in laws in general suck, but especially if they're indoctrinal. [01:52:50] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:52:52] Speaker A: Oh, well, that's your stance on immigration, huh? [01:52:59] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah, I don't know how to do it. Well, I, I get like doing it legally. I doubt the ability of the government to like carry that out justly, but whatever that means, I guess I'm for that. [01:53:18] Speaker A: I mean, at the end of the day, dude, I don't really give a shit. I really don't. You know, like most, I mean, honestly, most Mexicans you meet, they're just. They want to party, bro. They're friendly with everyone. You know what I mean? Like, I can't say that for some other races black, but I like, like, you meet a Mexican, he's just like, hey, like they want to have a good time. Like, I've never. They might talk about you if you come off a little pompous, but if you're just chill, like, they receive you with arms wide open. And honestly, their women are beautiful. I'm not saying that other races lack. I mean, I've met Some beautiful. I've met a lot of beautiful black women. I've met a lot of beautiful Asian women. I'm just really. I have a heart for the Hispanics, European Hispanics alike. But I'm just saying. And, and I love how they're traditional. They're traditional. Like I'm. I'm really drawn to Hispanic women because of how traditional they are. [01:54:37] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:54:38] Speaker A: Like, I love the fact that they're like, hey, most Hispanic women I know wake up at four in the morning to make sure their husband has breakfast before he leaves for work. Do. [01:54:47] Speaker B: Do they make them coffee too? [01:54:49] Speaker A: Yeah, Coffee, eggs, everything. Yeah. Wow. Not so much for the European Hispanics. [01:54:55] Speaker B: No. [01:54:56] Speaker A: But. No. [01:55:00] Speaker B: Maybe a shot of espresso if you're lucky. [01:55:04] Speaker A: And honestly, I think, I think. And it's. It's not even what I think, but Spanish is a romantic language. [01:55:11] Speaker B: Yes. [01:55:13] Speaker A: You know what I mean? I don't know what kriike means, but I love hearing it. I love hearing it, dude. I love on a thrust to hear krike. [01:55:26] Speaker B: Oh, I don't know what that is. I've never heard that. [01:55:30] Speaker A: Yeah. It can't be what's rich because they say it a lot during. During intimacy. [01:55:37] Speaker B: No. [01:55:39] Speaker A: Yeah, the hit kind of reminisce right now, I guess. [01:55:44] Speaker B: I guess I've never hit the right spot. I've never heard that one. I will say. I will say I've got a lot of love for Hispanic culture. I like that. It's a family oriented culture. [01:55:56] Speaker A: They're very. Yeah. Family or oriented. [01:56:00] Speaker B: My ex girlfriend's dad explicitly hated me because I was white. And I will say that that's probably more racial discrimination than most black people I know have ever dealt with. [01:56:16] Speaker A: No, no, no, don't. No, I would argue against that because all the black girls I dated, I was very much judged at all their family functions. Very much. Like it would be all the black dudes being like, it was so racist, bro. Like, why is she with you? You know what I mean? Like, come on, bro, you know why she's with me, bro. Yeah. I mean, like, come on, come on. [01:56:40] Speaker B: Look at these eyes. [01:56:41] Speaker A: I got sweatpants too. Come on. You know what I mean? Y' all ain't got these eyes. And. And I'm blessed. But. But at the same time, maybe not as much as the black guy is, but at the same time. Hey, was that, Was that Bigfoot's dad? [01:56:59] Speaker B: No, no, it's a Mexican family. [01:57:03] Speaker A: Oh, what was Bigfoot? [01:57:05] Speaker B: Italian. [01:57:07] Speaker A: Oh, really? [01:57:08] Speaker B: Yeah. [01:57:09] Speaker A: She was tall, dude. [01:57:12] Speaker B: Yep. [01:57:14] Speaker A: How tall are you? [01:57:17] Speaker B: Six. [01:57:17] Speaker A: One six one. Nailed it. When they asked what did pop. What. What does Paco look like? I was like, well, he's bald. He's like your average white dude that, like, listens to Danzig. Let's just say that. And he's got like, he's bald with like, a big mustache. And they're like, really? Is he tall? Is he short? I was like, he's like 6:1. [01:57:39] Speaker B: Nice. Yeah, I. I just measured myself. We can, we can end after this little anecdote. There's. I. I've become aware that there is a phenomenon where all guys will add just like 1 or 2 inches to their height. [01:57:57] Speaker A: What? That's like adding a shoe size to your shoe size. It's like me being a nine saying I'm a ten. [01:58:04] Speaker B: Yeah, it's. I don't know why, but I was at the doctor and the nurse for some reason measured me. I don't know why they measure adults, but she. She asked me how tall I was, and I was like, oh, I'm about six two. And then she measured me. I don't know why she asked before she did it. [01:58:25] Speaker A: Shoes on or shoes off? [01:58:29] Speaker B: Off, I believe. [01:58:32] Speaker A: And you're a true six one. [01:58:33] Speaker B: And she. Well, cuz, I said six two. And then she measured me for real. And she laughed and she went, you're 6:1. I was like, oh, okay. So then I realized in that moment, she does this 10 times a day, and every guy says he's like an inch or two taller than he really is. So there was this guy in the office who said he was 63 and I'm a little bit taller than him. So I was like, hey, I don't know how to tell you this, but I'm six one and. And you're saying you're six three. I'm like, visibly an inch taller than you, probably. And this other guy was saying he was 6 4, and they were like, nah, I'm 6. Like, you know, got measured at the DMV or whatever it was. And I was like, okay, I'm gonna go home tonight and I'm gonna measure myself and I'm gonna prove to you. So I, I measured myself and I sent them six one on the dot. I sent them a picture of the mark on the wall next to the tape measure showing 6:1. And I mean, this dude's world was shattered. Like, he just, like, reality wasn't what he thought it was anymore. [01:59:46] Speaker A: No. [01:59:47] Speaker B: Yeah, because he'd just been saying he was 63 for, like, years. And he's so tall. That like no one, you know, really questioned him about it. But how do you. [01:59:56] Speaker A: How are you so tall but you're under 6:1. [02:00:01] Speaker B: Well, he, he's probably like 6 or 6:1. So like he's taller than most people that he comes across. So when he says six three, you know, a five, six guy is not questioning that. You know what I mean? [02:00:15] Speaker A: Yeah, but the average is five, nine. [02:00:17] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. [02:00:20] Speaker A: I mean six foot, I mean three inches isn't that big. I just know you're taller than me. Like, I just know that. And so when I guessed it, I was like, he's probably six one, six two. [02:00:34] Speaker B: Yeah. Are you. I think you're about, you're five ten. [02:00:38] Speaker A: I'm five nine, maybe five, nine and a half. [02:00:41] Speaker B: Okay. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know, it's just funny, me being real, bro. [02:00:46] Speaker A: Yeah, like. Well, I don't really lie about my height. Like even my driver's license since his 5 9. [02:00:52] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. I just found it funny. I just, I started asking around and I just found that like most guys in the office were like not quite on with their height. Like I could tell that they were just adding to. [02:01:09] Speaker A: I do say I'm taller when I wear heels. Like I will. I would definitely add an answer to, you know, I'll be like, yeah, I'm 5 10, you know, but that's only when I'm wearing heels. [02:01:21] Speaker B: It would be funny if I was just like, I'm six four in heels. [02:01:26] Speaker A: You know what I mean? I'm. Well, I'm six foot and three inch heels. [02:01:32] Speaker B: Yeah, I've got four inch heels for my only fans. I'm not like wearing them out, but I got them. [02:01:41] Speaker A: Yeah, shoot me that link. Shoot me that link, dude. It's been. Been kind of lonely on this end. [02:01:46] Speaker B: I'll send you a discount code. [02:01:51] Speaker A: So I heard there's a basketball player who played for the WNBA and her native team Australia who like Dom, she was the first girl who can ever dunk. Left the WNBA to do OnlyFans because she made more money. [02:02:08] Speaker B: Yep. But only because she was famous already. I hear, I hear that a lot of women like think they can make a lot of money. So they'll start doing that and then they're making like 20 bucks a month and it's like. And then it's like hard on their self esteem because it's like, well, why are some women making 100 grand a month? [02:02:31] Speaker A: Yeah, Yeah. I really want to do that feet thing. That foot thing. [02:02:40] Speaker B: Mm. [02:02:42] Speaker A: Never follow through with it. [02:02:47] Speaker B: You need to be finder. You need to create a harem of women who you can just run their only fans for them. [02:02:57] Speaker A: You know, I'm not against that, except for, like, it just goes against my biblical views. [02:03:02] Speaker B: Okay, well, yeah, I mean, do we want to make a lot of money or do we not? I don't get it. You're talking about. [02:03:11] Speaker A: I knew a guy who rented an apartment and basically rented rooms to prostitutes and just provided security for him. [02:03:21] Speaker B: It's a seedy world, man. [02:03:27] Speaker A: All right, man, what do you want to talk about next week? [02:03:31] Speaker B: We had another one, right? It was immigration and something. Oh, I wanted to talk about prayer. [02:03:38] Speaker A: You want to talk about fasting is what you wanted to talk about? [02:03:41] Speaker B: Nah, nah. You know, I got my folks coming in town this weekend. I don't think it's a good weekend for fasting. [02:03:52] Speaker A: Prayer. All right. Prayer it is. [02:03:54] Speaker B: All right. [02:03:56] Speaker A: All right, man. I love you. This has been pseudonyms. [02:03:59] Speaker B: Love you, Miguel. [02:04:00] Speaker A: I've been your host, Paco, with my co host, Miguel. I'm Miguel. [02:04:05] Speaker B: Yeah, I'm Paco. [02:04:06] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. This has been pseudonyms. I'm Paco with my co host, Miguel. And yeah, till next week. [02:04:15] Speaker B: All right. [02:04:15] Speaker A: I wish I knew how to say prayer in Spanish. That'd be so cool. [02:04:19] Speaker B: Prro. Get at everybody. [02:04:23] Speaker A: El prairo. All right, brother. Love you, man.
