[0:01] Speaker 1: Understand the thinking atheist. It's not a person, it's a symbol,
[0:09] Speaker 1: an idea.

[0:13] Speaker 1: The rule, rejecting faith, pursuing knowledge, challenging the sacred. If
[0:18] Speaker 1: I tell the truth, it's because I tell the truth,

[0:43] Speaker 1: Thinking Atheist podcast hosted by Seth Andrews.
[0:56] Speaker 2: Every call today on any subject and you choose. The
[1:00] Speaker 2: begins with a conversation about your first car, just because
[1:05] Speaker 2: I think it would be awesome. My first car was
[1:09] Speaker 2: actually my dad's and I kind of inherited it. It
[1:12] Speaker 2: was an old Volkswagen Rabbit. Anybody remember the old VW Rabbit.
[1:17] Speaker 2: It was a tiny little roller skate of a car.
[1:19] Speaker 2: It was gray in color, and it got amazing gas
[1:23] Speaker 2: milette she'd had no power. It was five on the floor,
[1:26] Speaker 2: so it's a stick shift. And I remember one day
[1:30] Speaker 2: I was seventeen eighteen and I was driving to school,
[1:34] Speaker 2: which was ten miles away and I was almost out
[1:37] Speaker 2: of gas, and I kid you not, I stomped off
[1:40] Speaker 2: at the convenience store. All I had in my wallet
[1:43] Speaker 2: was one dollar. I had a dollar bill, and I
[1:47] Speaker 2: walked in through the guy at the counter and I
[1:49] Speaker 2: gave him a dollar. I said I needed dollars worth
[1:51] Speaker 2: of diesel on pump seven or whatever, and he just
[1:57] Speaker 2: looked at me, and I'm like, look, I can get
[1:58] Speaker 2: forty miles out of it thing thirty five forty miles
[2:02] Speaker 2: and this is all I got. So he put it
[2:05] Speaker 2: in one dollar diesel pump whatever, and I went out
[2:09] Speaker 2: there and pumped gas. Took that long, and I was
[2:12] Speaker 2: able to get to school and back, but the car itself.
[2:15] Speaker 2: It was one of those charming stories today. There was
[2:18] Speaker 2: a nightmare back then. I was dating a girl named
[2:21] Speaker 2: Dawn and we were going to go to prom. Well,
[2:24] Speaker 2: the problem was is that the air conditioner and the
[2:28] Speaker 2: heater didn't work correctly. So in order to switch from
[2:33] Speaker 2: AC to heat, he had to take part of the
[2:35] Speaker 2: dashboard off and flip the little switch that was well
[2:39] Speaker 2: behind the vents. And so every I don't know November,
[2:45] Speaker 2: I would get my Phillips screwdriver and I would have
[2:47] Speaker 2: to undo the screws and then pop the dash off,
[2:50] Speaker 2: and I would switch from air conditioner to heat, and
[2:54] Speaker 2: I put the dashboard back on, and I would have
[2:57] Speaker 2: heat through the winter months, and maybe March I would
[3:02] Speaker 2: switch back and then I would click it over to
[3:05] Speaker 2: cool and I would have air conditioning for the summer.
[3:07] Speaker 2: The fabric, the upholstery was not properly glued, so fabric
[3:15] Speaker 2: came down off the roof of the car. And I'm
[3:19] Speaker 2: six' one and so it was resting on my. Head
[3:22] Speaker 2: so AS i, DROVE i had the. TURTLENECK i actually
[3:25] Speaker 2: stuck my head down into, it just because there was
[3:28] Speaker 2: fabric hanging over the. Top and the left door handle
[3:33] Speaker 2: wasn't properly, secured so if you reached over and you
[3:36] Speaker 2: pulled the door close too, fast it would pop. Off
[3:40] Speaker 2: the whole, handle the big armrest handle thing popped off
[3:45] Speaker 2: in your, hand and you had to find the little
[3:49] Speaker 2: holes or whatever it went into and then pop it back.
[3:52] Speaker 2: On AND i don't know how many TIMES i had.
[3:54] Speaker 2: TO i had to replace that. Thing AND i drove
[3:57] Speaker 2: that car for two years BEFORE i finally got an
[4:02] Speaker 2: actual car THAT i. PURCHASED i got a Little MAZDA
[4:05] Speaker 2: b two thousand pickup. Truck and that's a whole other.
[4:08] Speaker 2: Story but, man THE Vw. Rabbit and it's funny when
[4:11] Speaker 2: we talk about our first. Cars everybody's, like oh my,
[4:14] Speaker 2: GOD i remember my sister drove A. Chavette anybody remember This,
[4:18] Speaker 2: chavette the Old Chevrolet chavette five on the floor and
[4:22] Speaker 2: it was, tiny, little sort of a bulb shaped car
[4:26] Speaker 2: in that seventies, brown that wood paneled brown that we
[4:31] Speaker 2: saw so much of in that. Decade and of course
[4:34] Speaker 2: we were driving in the, eighties but it was an older.
[4:36] Speaker 2: Car and my best friend at the, time his mom
[4:40] Speaker 2: owned A. Pacer anybody remember The. Pacer if you don't
[4:45] Speaker 2: know what A pacer, is go. Google it is a
[4:49] Speaker 2: death trap because almost the entire half of the car
[4:54] Speaker 2: is just made of bulbous. Glass if you're in an,
[4:59] Speaker 2: accident prepare yourself for a shower of flinging knives coming
[5:04] Speaker 2: right at you the Whole it wasn't dangerous like the
[5:08] Speaker 2: old seventy Two pinto was dangerous where you would tap
[5:12] Speaker 2: the back and the gas tank would. Explode BUT i
[5:15] Speaker 2: remember The. PACER i was always thought this. Sketch it
[5:19] Speaker 2: was a popular. Car i'm just, thinking oh my. GOD i,
[5:22] Speaker 2: mean if someone was to smash into the side of
[5:25] Speaker 2: the rear of this, Vehicle i'm going to be scarred for.
[5:28] Speaker 2: Life and this was the decade where if you had
[5:31] Speaker 2: a station, wagon it wasn't uncommon just to put the
[5:34] Speaker 2: kids in the very back and face them toward rear
[5:37] Speaker 2: traffic and then drive on a family vacation totally, unsecured totally.
[5:43] Speaker 2: Unmonitored we would just sit back. There if we had
[5:47] Speaker 2: been in, wreck we would have been flung through the
[5:49] Speaker 2: windshield and probably one hundred feet down onto the. Highway it's.
[5:53] Speaker 2: Horrifying AND i know there's an entire generation of people
[5:56] Speaker 2: who were, like, ah we were tough back. Then we,
[5:59] Speaker 2: Survived we didn't need none of these seat belts and,
[6:02] Speaker 2: restraints and people just need to suck it up these.
[6:05] Speaker 2: Days or it's more likely that we were just dumbasses
[6:12] Speaker 2: when it came to. Safety and those people that they
[6:15] Speaker 2: boast about the fact that while back when we rode
[6:17] Speaker 2: bikes and, scooters we didn't need no, helmet And i'm, like,
[6:23] Speaker 2: yeah and we saw a shit ton of head injuries
[6:28] Speaker 2: much more statistically because people weren't wearing a. HELMET i
[6:33] Speaker 2: did a true story on my other podcast about a
[6:37] Speaker 2: guy who had spent his, WHOLE i don't, know decades
[6:40] Speaker 2: of his life as a motorcycle. Rider and he had
[6:43] Speaker 2: been petitioning against mandatory helmet laws in the state Of New.
[6:49] Speaker 2: York and he was out as part of a ride
[6:52] Speaker 2: an actual formatted almost a, parade but they were all
[6:56] Speaker 2: riding to protest mandatory helmet. Laws was in a, wreck
[7:00] Speaker 2: struck his. Head he was killed from a head injury hashtag.
[7:05] Speaker 2: Irony it's remarkable the stuff that we allowed each other
[7:09] Speaker 2: to do in the seventies and the. Eighties fortunately we.
[7:14] Speaker 2: Survived it's almost like when an, animal like a fish
[7:18] Speaker 2: or something in the, ocean has one thousand babies and
[7:21] Speaker 2: you expect fifty to survive and the rest get eaten
[7:24] Speaker 2: by predators or wash up on. Shore that's kind of
[7:28] Speaker 2: what it was, like you. Know it's kind of A
[7:29] Speaker 2: darwinian childhood survival of the. Fittest so that's my car.
[7:35] Speaker 2: Story you have to forgive me. Digression i'm a little.
[7:37] Speaker 2: Cranky i've been on the phone all morning with insurance.

[7:48] Speaker 2: so the Big actually it's a weird. Crack it's not
[7:51] Speaker 2: just like two inches three, inches but it's almost an,

[20:51] Speaker 4: i Believe portentum.
[20:53] Speaker 2: Was that the explosive.
[20:54] Speaker 7: One oh.
[20:55] Speaker 2: Yeah we used to have funny names For. Ford it
[20:58] Speaker 2: was they were bandied, about found on the, roadside dead flipped,
[21:02] Speaker 2: Over russian Dune buggy was another one THAT i had.
[21:05] Speaker 2: HEARD i don't know what was your opinion of The pinto.
[21:08] Speaker 4: As terrible, car trouble starting on a regular, basis very.
[21:11] Speaker 4: Unreliable the nickname For ford we had back then was
[21:15] Speaker 4: six or repair, daily.
[21:17] Speaker 2: Fix or repair. Daily was it a part of the
[21:21] Speaker 2: conversation that you had at all about the exploding gas
[21:24] Speaker 2: Tank as.
[21:25] Speaker 4: A, teenager we'd laugh about it with my, friends AND
[21:27] Speaker 4: i know it wasn't something we talked about very.
[21:30] Speaker 2: Much you weren't concerned about. It.
[21:35] Speaker 8: Okay we knew enough back then that it wasn't easy to. Do,
[21:40] Speaker 8: okay we'd have to really work work at. It it's
[21:43] Speaker 8: like being a drummer and spinal. Tap you, know the
[21:45] Speaker 8: odds of us surviving are actually pretty. Good they're, Okay,
[21:50] Speaker 8: ray what else do you want to talk?
[21:51] Speaker 2: About my Friend.
[21:53] Speaker 4: Ryan, Walters there was an interesting thing about that story
[21:57] Speaker 4: with THE. Tv two things the REPORTING i heard is That,
[22:02] Speaker 4: SAMSUNG i believe it made THE. Tv they have their
[22:05] Speaker 4: own stream movie streaming. Service and, yes they do default
[22:08] Speaker 4: to let that, movie the streaming thing be the defaults
[22:12] Speaker 4: when you turn on THE. Tv that's what it goes,
[22:14] Speaker 4: like the channel it goes to by the fault unless
[22:16] Speaker 4: you change. It and, yes it had a version of
[22:19] Speaker 4: That Jackie chan. Movie there are two. VERSIONS i, heard
[22:21] Speaker 4: one with nudity and one. Without the one with.
[22:24] Speaker 2: Nudity at that, time on that, day it was A
[22:27] Speaker 2: Jackie chan. Movie, YES i, MEAN i is always jumping open.
[22:33] Speaker 9: Now the other interesting things go, Ahead oh go, ahead no, no,
[22:37] Speaker 9: no go, ahead, no no go.
[22:38] Speaker 4: Ahead, YEAH i thought of.
[22:39] Speaker 2: You And i'm just Saying Jackie chan in my mind
[22:41] Speaker 2: is always you, know he's jumping over cars and leaping
[22:45] Speaker 2: through windows and doing amazing, stunts you, know without a.
[22:48] Speaker 2: STUNTMAN i never realized that he, had you, know his
[22:52] Speaker 2: movies got all hot and. Bothered so that's that's interesting
[22:55] Speaker 2: trivia for.
[22:56] Speaker 4: Me, yeah the ones made In, CHINA i, believe Or
[22:58] Speaker 4: Hong kong or wherever they were. Made, Okay so, yeah
[23:01] Speaker 4: so there's good plausibility to that. Analysis but the interesting
[23:07] Speaker 4: thing to me is How ryan started using his political
[23:11] Speaker 4: opposition of setting him, up and he went away, overboard
[23:17] Speaker 4: and when he saw the analysis that oh there is
[23:19] Speaker 4: a plausible explanation for, this he really didn't. Apologize he didn't,
[23:22] Speaker 4: say oh my, BAD i. Overreacted that's not his.
[23:25] Speaker 2: Style so it is plausible BECAUSE i want to be
[23:29] Speaker 2: on the right side of, this even THOUGH i Think
[23:31] Speaker 2: Ryan walters is, Well i'll leave it. There you're saying
[23:35] Speaker 2: it is possible that THE tv turned on and in
[23:39] Speaker 2: the channel that it defaulted to was showing something that had.
[23:43] Speaker 2: Newed do you say that's? PLAUSIBLE i think everything.
[23:47] Speaker 4: Suffered THE tv turned on by. Itself, SURE i think
[23:50] Speaker 4: THE tv was on and it defaulted to that. CHANNEL
[23:54] Speaker 4: i think that's.
[23:54] Speaker 2: Plausible all, right you REALIZE i have to hold on
[23:57] Speaker 2: to the idea that he was actually. WATCHING i just
[24:01] Speaker 2: it gives me. Joy but we do need you, too me.
[24:04] Speaker 2: Too we need to be creatures of the. Evidence so,
[24:07] Speaker 2: fine all? Right was there anything else BEFORE i move?
[24:10] Speaker 6: On?
[24:11] Speaker 2: Ray, no that was what was on my. Mind all,
[24:14] Speaker 2: right appreciate you have a good one. YouTube i, mean
[24:18] Speaker 2: do you buy? THAT i suppose then IF i don't,
[24:24] Speaker 2: Know i'm struggling with. It i'm struggling with. It i've
[24:28] Speaker 2: got web call From oh look at zombie. Reushue he
[24:32] Speaker 2: was joining us once.
[24:33] Speaker 9: Again hi, THERE i wanted to.
[24:35] Speaker 3: TALK i can't talk about a car That i've actually,
[24:37] Speaker 3: driven BUT i would like to bring up a childhood
[24:40] Speaker 3: car That i've ridden. In, Okay, so my, father when
[24:45] Speaker 3: he was, alive got had an OPAL gt from nineteen seventy,
[24:51] Speaker 3: two AND i didn't realize how bad this, is but
[24:55] Speaker 3: it ran on leaded. Gasoline now keep this in, mind
[25:00] Speaker 3: a child who has cerebral palsy riding in a car
[25:05] Speaker 3: that runs on leaded.
[25:08] Speaker 2: Gasoline this must have been in the, seventies, right.
[25:13] Speaker 3: It was in The it was actually around nineteen eighty
[25:16] Speaker 3: five or Nineteen, NO i think we had it as
[25:18] Speaker 3: late as nineteen eighty. Eight, wow but the thing fell apart.
[25:21] Speaker 3: Constantly but it was made by a company Called, opel
[25:25] Speaker 3: and there were two models. Made there was a they
[25:27] Speaker 3: looked like baby, corvettes and it had this really weird,
[25:31] Speaker 3: rotating funky spinning headlight thing where you to turn the headlights,
[25:36] Speaker 3: on you pull the lever and the headlights spun up
[25:40] Speaker 3: out of the front of the vehicle and came, on
[25:43] Speaker 3: and then you pulled the lever back and they would
[25:45] Speaker 3: rotate back inside the. Vehicle it was really strange.
[25:47] Speaker 2: Looking, well the ople was a. CLASSIC i remember the
[25:50] Speaker 2: Old fierro and The dots in three EIGHTY. Z they
[25:53] Speaker 2: had the headlights that would pop. Up we just thought
[25:56] Speaker 2: that was the coolest. Thing and when one side, broke
[25:58] Speaker 2: the car would win catch. You so whenever the one
[26:01] Speaker 2: headlight would and the other.
[26:02] Speaker 3: Glitch it looked like my Father's opal was exactly like.
[26:06] Speaker 2: That was there anything else you wanted to talk? ABOUT
[26:13] Speaker 2: i think that's.
[26:14] Speaker 3: ANNO i, mean, YEAH i don't THINK i don't have.
[26:16] Speaker 3: Anything the only REASON i brought this up was because
[26:18] Speaker 3: you were talking about CARS i grew up. WITH i
[26:20] Speaker 3: grew up next door to a car guy who mixed
[26:22] Speaker 3: airplane fuel raised the octane in His Mustang cobra to
[26:26] Speaker 3: raise the octane fuel above what was street legal by
[26:30] Speaker 3: going and getting his gasoline out of fuel made for

[31:55] Speaker 2: Chip you're on what's on your? Mind what was your first?
[31:58] Speaker 7: Car, so my first car was De Wu.
[32:01] Speaker 11: MATIS i come From romania and there was this Brand
[32:06] Speaker 11: Eastern asian Called daevo and my first car was.
[32:11] Speaker 7: A very small One. Matis it was Called.
[32:13] Speaker 2: Matis i'll have to google.
[32:15] Speaker 11: It, yeah it's A it's a not a pretty car
[32:19] Speaker 11: by any. Means it was a pretty shitty, car LIKE
[32:22] Speaker 11: i think it has like fifty horse, power but you,
[32:25] Speaker 11: know as a, teenager it.
[32:27] Speaker 2: WORKS i mean it's like having a lawnmower engine strapped
[32:30] Speaker 2: onto four, wheels but it got you. THERE i think
[32:33] Speaker 2: most first cars are the. Best first cars were really,
[32:36] Speaker 2: junk but they were junk in a charming. Way So
[32:40] Speaker 2: i'll have to look that one. Up what else is
[32:41] Speaker 2: on your, Mind? Jip what's going?
[32:43] Speaker 11: On SO i wanted to ask. You i'm starting under
[32:46] Speaker 11: the assumption that you are not, vegan SO i wanted
[32:48] Speaker 11: to ask you why you are not, vegan BECAUSE i
[32:51] Speaker 11: myself an animal rights, activist AND i feel like you're
[32:54] Speaker 11: clearly an intelligent and well spoken Land SO i don't
[32:59] Speaker 11: know if you've ever thought about it or what's your
[33:01] Speaker 11: stance on.
[33:02] Speaker 2: It, Honestly natalie AND i have had that conversation AND
[33:06] Speaker 2: i may be a hypocrite about. It you, KNOW i
[33:10] Speaker 2: go back and. Forth my biggest challenge is the industrialization
[33:15] Speaker 2: and the cruelty of. It but DO i believe that
[33:20] Speaker 2: it is always immoral to eat? MEAT i haven't quite gotten.
[33:24] Speaker 2: There BUT i do have, concerns and you, know Maybe
[33:28] Speaker 2: i'm a coward for not pursuing those concerns. Further you,
[33:32] Speaker 2: KNOW i. AM i do consider myself an animal, lover
[33:36] Speaker 2: But i'm also the guy who will make chicken Palmersan
[33:39] Speaker 2: so it's Possible i'm a. HYPOCRITE i don't. Know tell
[33:42] Speaker 2: me what you.
[33:42] Speaker 11: Think so what happened to me was THAT i REALIZED
[33:46] Speaker 11: i can't possibly call my Don't i'm not an animal,
[33:48] Speaker 11: lover BUT i call myself a person who respects.
[33:50] Speaker 7: Animals who you, KNOW i do my, thing they're do their.
[33:54] Speaker 11: Thing they do their. Thing and the WAY i saw it,
[33:57] Speaker 11: IS i can't possibly even call myself. THAT i can't
[33:59] Speaker 11: say THAT i respect animals while at the same TIME
[34:02] Speaker 11: i would be paying for a product THAT i do not. Need,
[34:04] Speaker 11: right because veganism is not a. Diet it's not about the,
[34:07] Speaker 11: diet but it's essentially about respecting, animals and when it
[34:11] Speaker 11: comes to. Food that's sure that there's a diet there
[34:14] Speaker 11: called a plant based, diet but it also means for,
[34:17] Speaker 11: clothing entertainment or you, know like cosmetic testing and all
[34:20] Speaker 11: this kind of. Stuff LIKE i would assume that when
[34:22] Speaker 11: it comes to, clothing you would have no issue in
[34:24] Speaker 11: saying no to leather or any type of animal, product, Right.
[34:28] Speaker 2: Yeah that would be easy enough for. Me you, know
[34:30] Speaker 2: bring on the cotton and yeah that would be maybe even.
[34:33] Speaker 2: Polyester but don't tell, anybody so go. AHEAD i appreciate.
[34:38] Speaker 11: That, Yeah and the reason for that is because we
[34:41] Speaker 11: know that killing an animal to where their skin would
[34:44] Speaker 11: be highly, immoral, right it would.
[34:45] Speaker 7: Be extremely cruel to the.
[34:46] Speaker 11: Animal and we know that specifically because it is optional to.
[34:50] Speaker 11: Us we can always choose something. Else but then isn't
[34:54] Speaker 11: it optional also for? Food can't we always choose something
[34:57] Speaker 11: else also for? Food doesn't that already make the exploitation
[35:01] Speaker 11: and the killing of the animal already cruel to?
[35:04] Speaker 7: Them knowing that we don't need to do.
[35:05] Speaker 2: It, well may be the. Case what do you do
[35:09] Speaker 2: to replace the, proteins. Etc that you would normally get
[35:13] Speaker 2: from meat in your own?
[35:14] Speaker 11: Diet SO i personally am Not i'm a certify, nutritionist,
[35:18] Speaker 11: Right But i'm also a lazy, person SO i go.
[35:21] Speaker 7: BUY i buy some mock meat twice per, week maybe
[35:25] Speaker 7: three times these days Because i'm even. Lazier but WHAT
[35:27] Speaker 7: i do is just.
[35:28] Speaker 11: Take some, tofu marinate it a little, bit cut it into,
[35:31] Speaker 11: chunks and then put it in the air, fryer AND
[35:33] Speaker 11: i get enough protein from. That and of, course if
[35:36] Speaker 11: you eat a regular balanced, diet you're not going to
[35:39] Speaker 11: have any issues with.
[35:40] Speaker 2: Protein Air frying tofu Something i'd never heard of. Before
[35:45] Speaker 2: is it have the texture of meat or cheese or.
[35:48] Speaker 11: What it's not Necessarily. NO i think it's got its own,
[35:51] Speaker 11: texture to be, honest it isn't a specific texture of its.
[35:54] Speaker 11: Own it's a little bit like when you air fry,
[35:56] Speaker 11: it it becomes a little bit crispy on the.
[35:58] Speaker 7: Outside and a little bit soft on the.
[36:00] Speaker 11: Inside and if you marinate, it it also takes the
[36:03] Speaker 11: tofu has no taste, essentially so it just takes the
[36:05] Speaker 11: taste of anything you marinated.
[36:07] Speaker 7: With it's kind of like chicken breast if you think about.
[36:09] Speaker 11: It chicken breast doesn't really have any taste of its.
[36:11] Speaker 11: Own we add spices to it and we kind of
[36:14] Speaker 11: make it taste in a way or. Another so you
[36:17] Speaker 11: can do exactly the same thing with tofu and in
[36:20] Speaker 11: exactly the same. Manner if you want to fry it,
[36:22] Speaker 11: fried if you want to air fry, it air fry.
[36:24] Speaker 11: IT i think you just need to adjust a little
[36:26] Speaker 11: bit to get the texture that works for. You but,
[36:30] Speaker 11: otherwise taste, wise you.
[36:31] Speaker 7: Could make it taste almost identical to any animal.
[36:33] Speaker 2: Product, honestly you raise a good. POINT i don't have
[36:38] Speaker 2: a great response other Than i've always done. IT i
[36:42] Speaker 2: am more upset about the cruelty of the industrialized. Process
[36:48] Speaker 2: but you, know to respect the right of an animal to,
[36:52] Speaker 2: live AND i think maybe some of that is rooted
[36:55] Speaker 2: back In i'm not saying this is, right but you,
[36:58] Speaker 2: KNOW i came from a humans have dominion over the earth,
[37:02] Speaker 2: background and maybe there's some of that baked into me
[37:05] Speaker 2: THAT i need to deal. WITH i will make a
[37:08] Speaker 2: guarantee to you that that's a CONVERSATION i Think natalie
[37:11] Speaker 2: AND i will will, have AND i genuinely want to
[37:15] Speaker 2: be on the right side of. It, Nutritionally i'm not a.
[37:18] Speaker 2: NUTRITIONIST i don't fully understand how you replace the proteins
[37:24] Speaker 2: from meats and other things and, meats but it's SOMETHING
[37:27] Speaker 2: i would be willing to. Explore so in good, Faith,
[37:30] Speaker 2: CHIP i receive what you have to, say and just
[37:32] Speaker 2: know that we're all on that. Journey we'll, ALL i
[37:34] Speaker 2: think we all want to try to do the right.
[37:36] Speaker 11: Thing, Okay, OKAY i appreciate what you're. SAYING i would
[37:39] Speaker 11: just say one. Thing keep in mind that when we
[37:42] Speaker 11: make these. Choices you Know i'm going to be a
[37:44] Speaker 11: little bit of a pushy person right. Now just keep
[37:46] Speaker 11: in mind that when we make these, choices an innocent sentient,
[37:49] Speaker 11: being somebody who, feels somebody who has, emotion does get
[37:53] Speaker 11: exploited and killed for. Us maybe not the ones that
[37:55] Speaker 11: were exploited specifically for the product that we're, buying but
[37:58] Speaker 11: because of supplying the men we're buying these, products they
[38:01] Speaker 11: in order to replace, it they do exploit and kill
[38:03] Speaker 11: another centien. Being AND i feel like there is some
[38:07] Speaker 11: urgency in that, matter Because i'm sure that if you
[38:09] Speaker 11: are on the other side of, it somebody would to
[38:11] Speaker 11: be exploiting and killing. You you wouldn't, well you are
[38:13] Speaker 11: members of your. Family you wouldn't want somebody to Say
[38:16] Speaker 11: i'll look into. It i'll see WHAT i can. Do
[38:18] Speaker 11: but of COURSE i cannot hope anything else other than
[38:21] Speaker 11: you actually doing your best and you're actually looking into,
[38:24] Speaker 11: it SO i cannot hold you accountable for, anything.
[38:27] Speaker 2: Like you're not going to push me into a. Decision
[38:30] Speaker 2: IF i may appreciate your verve AND i totally get your,
[38:34] Speaker 2: conviction AND i like, that but you, know being pushy

[43:17] Speaker 6: talking about. It it was a scandal that lasted for
[43:22] Speaker 6: at least three or four, weeks people in the church,
[43:25] Speaker 6: saying did you hear that satanic rock music coming from

[48:11] Speaker 2: say they took four of. Them but the car was
[48:14] Speaker 2: so small that WHEN i would be in class and
[48:17] Speaker 2: they were out for whatever, reason they went out to
[48:20] Speaker 2: the parking lot and they lifted the car up and
[48:23] Speaker 2: they turned it horizontally in the parking space with a
[48:26] Speaker 2: car on each, side SO i couldn't get. OUT i
[48:29] Speaker 2: had to wait till whoever was parked in the space
[48:32] Speaker 2: next to me to leave BEFORE i could go. Home
[48:35] Speaker 2: and they thought that was the funniest. THING i just
[48:40] Speaker 2: never forgot, That, Steve what else is on your? Mind anything? Else?
[48:44] Speaker 5: YEAH i wanted to talk About trump and his health
[48:47] Speaker 5: scare or whatever you want to call. IT i, mean
[48:49] Speaker 5: the man is. OBESE i heard the conversation about the vegan.
[48:54] Speaker 5: Diet trump is definitely not a. VEGAN i think he
[48:58] Speaker 5: subsists entirely on junk. Food And i'm just wondering what you.
[49:02] Speaker 5: Think is he on his last? Legs is the guy
[49:06] Speaker 5: gonna are they gonna keep him alive through some kind
[49:08] Speaker 5: of chemical treatment or what the hell is going to happen?
[49:11] Speaker 5: Here because it's pretty. Scary he's got the, cankles he's
[49:14] Speaker 5: got the bruises on his. HANDS i, mean it's uh
[49:19] Speaker 5: one and one Thing i'd like him To i'd like
[49:22] Speaker 5: him to move, on go to the the next world
[49:25] Speaker 5: if there is, one and, uh but Then i'm scared
[49:28] Speaker 5: shitless ABOUT. Jd vance becoming. President so what do you, Think.
[49:32] Speaker 2: Well we have proven on the left that we are
[49:35] Speaker 2: not immune from conspiracy theories BECAUSE i think he disappeared
[49:40] Speaker 2: for a period of time and everybody started to speculate
[49:44] Speaker 2: and lose their. Minds and that's fun to do, SOMETIMES i.
[49:48] Speaker 2: THINK i, mean in my, GOD i Think trump will
[49:51] Speaker 2: live another decade on hate, alone hate. Fueled. MAN i don't.
[49:56] Speaker 2: KNOW i have no. IDEA i don't want him to
[50:00] Speaker 2: be on stage at a rally and suddenly clutch his
[50:03] Speaker 2: heart and fall, over and then he gets a king's.
[50:05] Speaker 2: Funeral he'll die a martyr in some ways, Anyway BUT
[50:09] Speaker 2: i would REALLY i agree With James. FELT i want
[50:12] Speaker 2: to see him more and more diminished and adult and,
[50:16] Speaker 2: weak AND i want to see him stumbling over the,
[50:19] Speaker 2: stages AND i want to see him making more and
[50:21] Speaker 2: more word, salad AND i want to see drool coming
[50:23] Speaker 2: out of his, mouth AND i want to see him
[50:25] Speaker 2: shit himself at a press. CONFERENCE i, mean is this?
[50:27] Speaker 2: PETTY i don't think. SO i want to change the
[50:30] Speaker 2: perception Of Donald trump in the minds of The magat
[50:34] Speaker 2: cult where they used to, Think, wow he's so, big
[50:37] Speaker 2: he's so. Strong he's standing there in his, lifts. Etc,
[50:40] Speaker 2: right and you, know he's chest thumping and wanting to
[50:44] Speaker 2: be mister army. Man And i'm, like, HEY i want their,
[50:47] Speaker 2: memory their last memory of, him to be that he
[50:50] Speaker 2: was adult and weak and fumbling and, crazy AND i
[50:55] Speaker 2: want that to. Happen will we lose him tomorrow or
[50:58] Speaker 2: ten years from, TOMORROW i don't. KNOW i will Say
[51:01] Speaker 2: i'm sick and tired of having to see his name
[51:04] Speaker 2: in the news every day for the last ten. Years
[51:09] Speaker 2: as far AS. Jd vance is, CONCERNED jd is smarter
[51:13] Speaker 2: and in some ways he's, slicker but he does not
[51:17] Speaker 2: enjoy the cult. Following Even maggiz think that guy is
[51:21] Speaker 2: about as compelling as a tax. Audit SO i do
[51:25] Speaker 2: think When trump finally kicks, It vance is not going
[51:28] Speaker 2: to hold sway and there will be a power struggle
[51:32] Speaker 2: within THE. Gop but you, know WHEN. Jd vance comes,
[51:35] Speaker 2: in he's going to be a little, smoother but he's
[51:38] Speaker 2: not going to hold the cult the Way Donald trump.
[51:41] Speaker 2: Did AND i think there may be a big blow.
[51:45] Speaker 2: UP i think people are going to be jockey and for.
[51:47] Speaker 2: POSITION i think it's going to get super nasty and
[51:51] Speaker 2: all these transactional people are going to be groping for
[51:54] Speaker 2: their moment in the spotlight And i'm here for. IT
[51:57] Speaker 2: i don't, Know, steve what do you think is going to?
[51:59] Speaker 5: Happen it seems to me that the hardcore mega followers
[52:04] Speaker 5: are it would almost take him to be. DEAD i,
[52:07] Speaker 5: mean he could be put out there in some kind
[52:09] Speaker 5: of a with life support systems on him connected to,
[52:13] Speaker 5: him and they'd still be, Saying, oh he's the greatest
[52:16] Speaker 5: thing that ever, happened you. Know AND i almost think
[52:20] Speaker 5: the only way we're going to get rid of him is, a,
[52:22] Speaker 5: uh he kicks the, Bucket so, dude.
[52:25] Speaker 2: They could take. Him he could, die and they could
[52:28] Speaker 2: take his skin and go down to hobby lobby and
[52:31] Speaker 2: buy some of that, batting the fluffy, batting and they
[52:34] Speaker 2: could stuff his body and they would sit it at
[52:37] Speaker 2: a press conference And maga would be, Like he's the
[52:40] Speaker 2: greatest thing. EVER i swear these people are. IMPENETRABLE i, Agree, yeah.
[52:44] Speaker 2: IMPENETRABLE i. AGREE i don't know what's going to be
[52:47] Speaker 2: we get, It BERNIE'S i have seen those weekend At

[53:55] Speaker 2: don't all think. Alike Fun Fact canada removed Darry is
[53:59] Speaker 2: a food group in twenty. Eighteen, Yay shannon And. Paul
[54:03] Speaker 2: you are much. Appreciated So i've been having this. Discussion
[54:07] Speaker 2: SO i was on The Piers morgan, show, remember and
[54:10] Speaker 2: we had that conversation about the shroud of turin ad.
[54:13] Speaker 2: Nauseum i've been talking about, that But, piers that show
[54:17] Speaker 2: was what forty minutes, long and there must have been
[54:22] Speaker 2: twenty interruptions with. Ads it was impossible to get any,
[54:26] Speaker 2: momentum and it just got. Irritating NOW i understand. MONETIZATION
[54:33] Speaker 2: i get. IT i monetize my. Stuff so let's say
[54:39] Speaker 2: you're a full time content. CREATOR i take a commercial.
[54:42] Speaker 2: BREAK i try to space them out twenty, minutes twenty
[54:47] Speaker 2: five minutes when. Possible WHEN i released this speech THAT
[54:52] Speaker 2: i gave forty some, MINUTES i did not want to
[54:55] Speaker 2: interrupt this speech BECAUSE i wanted to take people on a.
[54:58] Speaker 2: Journey SO i purposefully didn't add any commercials on that,
[55:02] Speaker 2: show which MEANS i didn't earn really hardly any revenue
[55:06] Speaker 2: for that whole week on that. Podcast BUT i wanted
[55:09] Speaker 2: the integrity of the show to come. First i'm paying my.
[55:12] Speaker 2: Bills it's. Cool WHEN i released it to, YouTube i
[55:16] Speaker 2: did the same. Thing but even when we, stop we
[55:19] Speaker 2: take what IN fm radio it's called a commercial stop,
[55:21] Speaker 2: set when you take a break for a sponsorship so
[55:25] Speaker 2: that you can monetize and make a. LIVING i think
[55:29] Speaker 2: you have to be a good steward of. That AND
[55:33] Speaker 2: i SWEAR i am seeing some of these videos in
[55:36] Speaker 2: every five. Minutes it's boom boom, boom and it irritates.
[55:39] Speaker 2: Everybody it's self defeating because then fewer people are going
[55:45] Speaker 2: to click on your, thing, right which means you're not
[55:47] Speaker 2: really getting the, hits which means you're not going to
[55:50] Speaker 2: get paid nearly as. Much and you've alienated the people
[55:53] Speaker 2: who came for the. Content and it's a back and.
[55:56] Speaker 2: Forth and it's one of the reasons THAT i ask,
[55:58] Speaker 2: people if you like what you, hear to consider becoming
[56:01] Speaker 2: a patron at patreon dot com Slash Seth. Andrews not
[56:05] Speaker 2: just BECAUSE i provide a completely commercial free and early
[56:08] Speaker 2: version of the, show but another reason THAT i do
[56:11] Speaker 2: that is BECAUSE i want to support my work without
[56:15] Speaker 2: having to hit the freaking breaks every five minutes for.
[56:19] Speaker 2: ADS i don't want to be that. GUY i don't
[56:21] Speaker 2: want to run. That i'm not going to do that
[56:23] Speaker 2: to my. Channel i'm not going to do it to.
[56:24] Speaker 2: You and if you don't Like, patreon you can go
[56:27] Speaker 2: to the, website The thinkingatheist dot com and do a
[56:30] Speaker 2: little subscription thing. There you, know no one's required, to
[56:34] Speaker 2: but you also don't have to hit skip ad every two. Minutes.
[56:39] Speaker 2: Jesus After Piers, MORGAN i thought this is a. Cancer

[1:00:00] Speaker 2: i also feel like this is where a lot of
[1:00:03] Speaker 2: people at in our cultural. Moment they don't want the
[1:00:07] Speaker 2: spark to die in their, heart but at the same
[1:00:09] Speaker 2: time they're pissed and. Exasperated and IF i can do,

[1:00:32] Speaker 10: That thank you so. Much all, right NOW i have
[1:00:35] Speaker 10: a question for. You a, question and Now i'll be
[1:00:37] Speaker 10: out of.
[1:00:37] Speaker 2: Here you're.
[1:00:38] Speaker 10: Fine miss A JOY i forget her first, Name APRIL A.
[1:00:42] Speaker 2: Joy, yeah just interviewed her on the channel epar A.
[1:00:45] Speaker 10: Joy are we ever going to see more of?
[1:00:47] Speaker 2: Her she is really getting noticed for those who may
[1:00:52] Speaker 2: not know. Quickly she is a Progressive. Christian she's a
[1:00:56] Speaker 2: friend of, mine and she is a fierce opponent Of christian.
[1:01:00] Speaker 2: Nationalism and many people think this is an, oxymoron but
[1:01:03] Speaker 2: it is.
[1:01:04] Speaker 4: Not.
[1:01:05] Speaker 2: Her jesus would never judge, Anybody he would never condemn gay,
[1:01:08] Speaker 2: people he would never create or send people to. Hell
[1:01:11] Speaker 2: and she has sort of walked through and we've had
[1:01:15] Speaker 2: a conversation about The bible and all, that but Her
[1:01:18] Speaker 2: jesus would never do. That so hers is very much
[1:01:20] Speaker 2: a cherry picked by her own, admission cherry picked personal.
[1:01:24] Speaker 2: Faith but she's lovely and she is a wonderful person
[1:01:27] Speaker 2: and we share. Values but she is really getting noticed on,
[1:01:31] Speaker 2: TikTok AND i think Even Ben, shapiro was It Ben
[1:01:37] Speaker 2: shapiro Or Charlie kirk has been giving her, shit specifically
[1:01:42] Speaker 2: her with. Response. Yeah so if you're getting noticed By
[1:01:47] Speaker 2: cretans Like shapiro And, carlson THEN i think you know your.
[1:01:51] Speaker 2: Star for lack of a better way of saying, it
[1:01:53] Speaker 2: your star may be on the. Rise SO i think
[1:01:55] Speaker 2: we'll be seeing and hearing morphrom.
[1:01:57] Speaker 10: He that also means that she's ruffling the.
[1:02:00] Speaker 2: Feathers, yeah if you pissed them, off it's been a good,
[1:02:03] Speaker 2: day Right, Patrick oh, yeah, yes, sir. Awesome, well thanks
[1:02:08] Speaker 2: for calling so.
[1:02:09] Speaker 10: That the discussion you had with, HER i thought was
[1:02:12] Speaker 10: just an introduction and you would have another, discussion although
[1:02:17] Speaker 10: here a speech from her.
[1:02:19] Speaker 2: Later, well by the time she AND i sat down
[1:02:22] Speaker 2: for the interview that published on my channel three or
[1:02:25] Speaker 2: four weeks, ago she had already published a nationally known
[1:02:29] Speaker 2: book Called Star Spangled jesus and had a lot of
[1:02:32] Speaker 2: success on her own. Channel and in, fact it was
[1:02:35] Speaker 2: because of that THAT i noticed her AND i reached
[1:02:37] Speaker 2: out AND i, Said, hey we're going to be at
[1:02:39] Speaker 2: this convention, together let's Hang and, so you, know she
[1:02:44] Speaker 2: certainly didn't need to need me to signal boost. Her
[1:02:47] Speaker 2: but she's. FANTASTIC i just think she's, wonderful and she's
[1:02:51] Speaker 2: on the right side of so many issues when it
[1:02:53] Speaker 2: comes to Opposing christian nationalism and protecting state church separation
[1:02:57] Speaker 2: and saying let's love people AND i judge, them and
[1:03:01] Speaker 2: SO i JUST i think she's, Fantastic, Patrick but appreciate.
[1:03:05] Speaker 2: You you know the fact that it resonated with. You
[1:03:08] Speaker 2: that's that's pretty. Amazing so thank.
[1:03:10] Speaker 10: You one last, Question, okay the topic of divine appointment
[1:03:17] Speaker 10: for kings so kind of like what they do In
[1:03:21] Speaker 10: europe in THE. Uk what do you think about? That
[1:03:24] Speaker 10: AND i do have a personal story with. THAT a
[1:03:26] Speaker 10: friend of mine maybe is of the lineage of chiefs From.
[1:03:31] Speaker 10: Africa so he's been appointed or he's getting ready to
[1:03:35] Speaker 10: eventually one day become to succeed his. Father but in
[1:03:40] Speaker 10: order to succeed his, father he has to be divinely
[1:03:44] Speaker 10: appointed in their traditional, religion which Is. Christianity but he's
[1:03:50] Speaker 10: also been grappling with the idea Of christianity through watching
[1:03:53] Speaker 10: people like, yourself and he doesn't think that he's A christian.
[1:03:56] Speaker 10: Anymore but he's also very very interesting and invested in
[1:04:03] Speaker 10: leading his, people and not only, leading but serving his.
[1:04:06] Speaker 10: People but in order to get to that, point so
[1:04:09] Speaker 10: it would have to be A. Christian that way he
[1:04:12] Speaker 10: can get appointed by the religious leaders and you, know
[1:04:16] Speaker 10: quote Unquote god choosing. Him do you think that he
[1:04:20] Speaker 10: should hold onto His christianity and maybe almost be in
[1:04:25] Speaker 10: a closet with His christianity or should he come out
[1:04:28] Speaker 10: and profess to be an?
[1:04:30] Speaker 7: Atheist?
[1:04:31] Speaker 2: OH i, can't. SIR i, Mean i'd like to see
[1:04:33] Speaker 2: as many people as possible be their authentic. SELVES i
[1:04:37] Speaker 2: think if you are a non, believer but Profess christianity
[1:04:42] Speaker 2: as a. STRATEGY i can't get around the fact that
[1:04:45] Speaker 2: you're still. Lying you're giving cover to the. Religion, now
[1:04:50] Speaker 2: if he's playing chessnut checkers because he wants to maneuver
[1:04:53] Speaker 2: into a position of influence to further secularize, it that's
[1:04:59] Speaker 2: a different. Discussion BUT i just don't like the idea of.
[1:05:03] Speaker 2: Lying you, know the greater good, thing you, know the
[1:05:07] Speaker 2: means justifying the ends. Things i'm just not there in my.
[1:05:11] Speaker 2: Mind and you, know you don't choose to be A.
[1:05:14] Speaker 2: Christian you either believe or you don't. Believe, organically, hey
[1:05:18] Speaker 2: you know you can choose what you, profess and beyond,
[1:05:21] Speaker 2: THAT i don't really care too much about your. LABELS
[1:05:24] Speaker 2: a lot of people who Are christians and then begin to.
[1:05:27] Speaker 2: Doubt they enter kind of. Spirituality there is A, god
[1:05:31] Speaker 2: but he's he loves, everybody and then you, Know i'm not,
[1:05:34] Speaker 2: religious But i'm, spiritual and maybe there are there's an,
[1:05:38] Speaker 2: afterlife and then they kind of. Drift sometimes they go
[1:05:40] Speaker 2: All New. Age there's there's this membrane of safety where
[1:05:44] Speaker 2: you haven't left, god belief or a spirituality per. Se
[1:05:50] Speaker 2: so it's not as scary because when you SAY i
[1:05:54] Speaker 2: don't believe In. God there's a finality to that that
[1:05:57] Speaker 2: freaks some people. OUT i can't tell this person how
[1:06:00] Speaker 2: to act or, react other than to encourage them to
[1:06:02] Speaker 2: find a way to do so without being a. Liar, okay, yes,
[1:06:07] Speaker 2: sir that makes. Sense thank. You the speech THAT i
[1:06:11] Speaker 2: am giving In sacramento and In albuquerque, again and, WOW
[1:06:16] Speaker 2: i Just i'm not Drunk albuquerque And denver has to
[1:06:20] Speaker 2: do with those who have claimed the divine right of.
[1:06:23] Speaker 2: Kings they have said, that, well it's not my idea
[1:06:26] Speaker 2: THAT i have been appointed to rule with the CAPITAL.
[1:06:29] Speaker 2: R i am an appointment of The. Almighty and this
[1:06:34] Speaker 2: has been. Done god has been, Weaponized this shit has

[1:06:55] Speaker 2: choices and identity to bend the knee. Right, yes It's god's,

[1:10:59] Speaker 9: mean just reality that own nothing and like it or.
[1:11:03] Speaker 9: WHATEVER i, Think i'm just willing to accept. IT i
[1:11:06] Speaker 9: don't see myself being able to. RETIRE i don't see
[1:11:09] Speaker 9: myself owning a. HOME i don't see a lot of my, generation,
[1:11:12] Speaker 9: millennials you, know to do any of that. STUFF i
[1:11:15] Speaker 9: see a lot of, addiction drug, addictions all sorts of. Addictions.
[1:11:18] Speaker 9: REALLY i see suicide. RATES i see a lot of
[1:11:23] Speaker 9: problems with this country when it comes to money. Economics
[1:11:27] Speaker 9: people are full of a lot of, greed. PRIDE a
[1:11:30] Speaker 9: lot of people claim that they're middle class whatever that.
[1:11:33] Speaker 9: Means you, know they could be sitting there in debt
[1:11:36] Speaker 9: and they could still tell you, know, oh you, know
[1:11:38] Speaker 9: they're buying a, home they got the, car but they're
[1:11:40] Speaker 9: in debt and they're telling you that they're middle class
[1:11:43] Speaker 9: and they're proud of. It there's just a lot of
[1:11:45] Speaker 9: things that just doesn't make. Sense all the money that

[1:12:02] Speaker 9: just trying to be. Creative but, YEAH i JUST i
[1:12:05] Speaker 9: think that the other thing about this election maybe is
[1:12:09] Speaker 9: the last, one you, know maybe maybe that's. It maybe
[1:12:13] Speaker 9: people aren't going to stand. Up maybe people are just
[1:12:15] Speaker 9: eventually just going to give up and just Let america
[1:12:17] Speaker 9: just get taken over by who's already in control basically,
[1:12:21] Speaker 9: anyway as the. Billionaires SO i don't, know, man you,

[1:13:52] Speaker 2: One appreciate. You for those who are international, Callers Wells
[1:13:56] Speaker 2: fargo is a. Bank i'm sure you made that. Connection
[1:14:01] Speaker 2: we were talking about buying a, home, Like i'm a
[1:14:04] Speaker 2: man in his fifties And i'm still paying this house, payment,
[1:14:06] Speaker 2: right AND i was looking at the amortization, schedule and
[1:14:11] Speaker 2: it is remarkable that our system has us pay for
[1:14:16] Speaker 2: our homes three times, over, right with all of the
[1:14:21] Speaker 2: interest in the way they've stacked. It you pay for
[1:14:24] Speaker 2: your house with a, mortgage BECAUSE i, mean who's got
[1:14:26] Speaker 2: the cash to buy a? House i'm NOT i don't,
[1:14:28] Speaker 2: know are you kidding? ME i don't know? That so
[1:14:31] Speaker 2: you get the mortgage AND i did a fifteen year
[1:14:35] Speaker 2: the last time we went, in BECAUSE i was, like
[1:14:37] Speaker 2: at least that's a way not TO i Think i'm
[1:14:39] Speaker 2: paying for my house twice now instead of three. Times
[1:14:43] Speaker 2: But i'm still paying for that, house going to be
[1:14:45] Speaker 2: paying for it for many. Years and you, know you
[1:14:48] Speaker 2: don't own the home because banks from the, world AND
[1:14:53] Speaker 2: i think about all of the interest and the fees
[1:14:57] Speaker 2: and the, extras the add, ons the ansel very. Stuff
[1:15:00] Speaker 2: we just bleed to. Death we just bleed to. Death
[1:15:04] Speaker 2: it's just. Immoral but we do it anyway because it's
[1:15:08] Speaker 2: a system that we're acclimated to and we don't know
[1:15:11] Speaker 2: any different than it is better than some other. Systems
[1:15:14] Speaker 2: and at Least i've got a, home got a roof
[1:15:17] Speaker 2: over my. Head this is our, place our safe. Place
[1:15:21] Speaker 2: but why have we agreed to allow banks to charge
[1:15:26] Speaker 2: us essentially three times for something we're buying. Once i've
[1:15:32] Speaker 2: also heard something. Else don't take this to the, bank
[1:15:36] Speaker 2: if you'll pardon the, expression But i've heard that if
[1:15:39] Speaker 2: you pay an extra house payment or two every, year the,
[1:15:45] Speaker 2: principle the extra principle at the beginning of your mortgage
[1:15:49] Speaker 2: schedule will knock years off of the end of the mortgage.
[1:15:54] Speaker 2: Schedule so instead of paying something off in, thirty if
[1:15:57] Speaker 2: you pay an extra house payment or two at the front,
[1:16:00] Speaker 2: End like who can afford to do? That but if
[1:16:03] Speaker 2: you do that in the first five, years you might
[1:16:05] Speaker 2: KNOCK i don't, know ten years off the end of the.
[1:16:08] Speaker 2: Note somebody said something like, That i'm not a financial.
[1:16:12] Speaker 2: Advisor last, call it's going to be six one. Nine
[1:16:16] Speaker 2: it Is. Darcy, Welcome. Darcy are you? There?
[1:16:20] Speaker 12: Hi how you?
[1:16:21] Speaker 2: Doing i'm? Good first, car let's start.
[1:16:24] Speaker 12: There, WELL i had motorcycles up until the TIME i
[1:16:27] Speaker 12: was in my late, twenties so my first car was
[1:16:32] Speaker 12: a brand new. Car it was a nineteen eighty Seven
[1:16:36] Speaker 12: Toyota tursell The. Hatchback we bought it In florida and
[1:16:41] Speaker 12: drove it across the country a year and a half
[1:16:44] Speaker 12: two years later To San diego with three, cats a,
[1:16:48] Speaker 12: bike a, surfboard and most of our daily needs packed into,
[1:16:52] Speaker 12: it and it was about a five day. Trip it
[1:16:55] Speaker 12: was kind of.
[1:16:55] Speaker 2: Fun we weren't. Allowed my mother's brother was killed in
[1:17:00] Speaker 2: a motorcycle, wreck so motorcycles were forbidden in Our dad
[1:17:05] Speaker 2: wanted to buy, one AND i had one for two
[1:17:07] Speaker 2: months WHEN i was like twenty and she lost her.
[1:17:11] Speaker 2: Mind AND i do agree that they are extremely dangerous
[1:17:14] Speaker 2: that knock yourself out if you're a. BIKER i think
[1:17:17] Speaker 2: they can be. Amazing but for some reason she did
[1:17:21] Speaker 2: allow us to have a. Moped do you remember the? Moped?
[1:17:25] Speaker 12: Yeah and you KNOW i think my opinion is that
[1:17:28] Speaker 12: the moped and the electric bikes of today are much
[1:17:32] Speaker 12: more dangerous than a, motorcycle simply because of their breaking.
[1:17:38] Speaker 12: CAPABILITY a, motorcycle a true motorcycle has very powerful, breaks
[1:17:44] Speaker 12: and mopeds and electric bicycles have bicycle. Breaks and what'll
[1:17:50] Speaker 12: get you in trouble more than not being seen is
[1:17:52] Speaker 12: not being able to.
[1:17:53] Speaker 2: Stop for those who don't know what a moped, is
[1:17:56] Speaker 2: it's not like the electric, bikes quite like the electric bike,
[1:18:00] Speaker 2: today although they are kind of. Similar imagine a weed
[1:18:03] Speaker 2: eater motor wired into an Old shwin bicycle and it
[1:18:09] Speaker 2: had a max speed of maybe thirty so you could
[1:18:13] Speaker 2: pedal like a bicycle if you, chose and it didn't
[1:18:17] Speaker 2: have a, kickstart so you would pedal and then you
[1:18:19] Speaker 2: would pop the clutch and the moped would, start and
[1:18:22] Speaker 2: then you sounded like this going up the. Road it
[1:18:26] Speaker 2: was just like a pathetic and you're. Right that thing
[1:18:29] Speaker 2: Was rickety had a friend come over and he wrote
[1:18:32] Speaker 2: it for a little, bit tipped it broke his. Arm
[1:18:35] Speaker 2: it was just a. Nightmare but you, know hashtag. Irony
[1:18:39] Speaker 2: we had a moped in our house for a number of.
[1:18:42] Speaker 2: Months what kind of do you still ride? Today?
[1:18:45] Speaker 12: WELL i have two motorcycles now THAT i haven't ridden
[1:18:49] Speaker 12: in a few years Because i'm getting on in ears
[1:18:51] Speaker 12: and my balance and my reaction time it's just not
[1:18:55] Speaker 12: what it used to.
[1:18:56] Speaker 9: BE i miss.
[1:18:58] Speaker 12: IT i WISH i could still, ride but my strength
[1:19:01] Speaker 12: and my balance are Just i'm not confident.
[1:19:03] Speaker 2: ANYMORE i kind of like the e. Bikes we rented
[1:19:06] Speaker 2: some of those at the park where you Had natalie's grandkids,
[1:19:10] Speaker 2: over and those things can. MOVE i wasn't expecting.
[1:19:15] Speaker 12: That i've got one of those, too and it does
[1:19:17] Speaker 12: both pedal and brottle and it does go pretty.
[1:19:20] Speaker 2: Good yeah, Yeah, well was there anything else on your mind? Today?
[1:19:26] Speaker 12: Well two. Things, one you were talking about, mortgages and you're.
[1:19:29] Speaker 12: Right if you pay more in your premium against your
[1:19:32] Speaker 12: principle every, month you will pay off. QUICKER i have
[1:19:36] Speaker 12: been paying more THAN i owe for about five, years
[1:19:41] Speaker 12: AND i knocked about five years off of my mortgage
[1:19:45] Speaker 12: And i'm actually paying it off next.
[1:19:47] Speaker 2: Month look at, you which is a look at. You
[1:19:50] Speaker 2: the idea of waking up without a car payment must be. Magical,
[1:19:57] Speaker 2: yeah and.
[1:19:57] Speaker 12: Without a house, payment so.
[1:20:00] Speaker 2: THAT i say car, Payment, DARCY i THINK i said

[1:20:06] Speaker 2: mind needs more more sweet, nectar more coffee with cream
[1:20:10] Speaker 2: and splendid anything else on your.
[1:20:13] Speaker 12: Mind just one thing that's in the news THAT i
[1:20:19] Speaker 12: don't see too many people talking, about and that was
[1:20:23] Speaker 12: the extra judicial extermination execution of eleven people in a
[1:20:29] Speaker 12: boat in The caribbean off Of, venezuela like THE Us,
[1:20:33] Speaker 12: navy that was allegedly drug. Runners and in NO us
[1:20:39] Speaker 12: That i've lived in has drugs been a capital offense
[1:20:44] Speaker 12: for one? Thing and we're not at war With. Venezuela
[1:20:48] Speaker 12: and where's.
[1:20:50] Speaker 4: The hag there's my.
[1:20:51] Speaker 12: Question and who's going to hold this administration accountable for
[1:20:56] Speaker 12: eleven souls that were?
[1:20:57] Speaker 2: MURDERED i think the answer to your question is, nobody
[1:21:02] Speaker 2: because they tick the boxes, right they are the other
[1:21:06] Speaker 2: they are outside our. Border and we live in a
[1:21:10] Speaker 2: time when war is a video. Game so we've so
[1:21:15] Speaker 2: depersonalized the, violence, right you just go out and take
[1:21:18] Speaker 2: the boat. Out everybody, dies but there's no personal. Feeling
[1:21:21] Speaker 2: no one has the gravity of that event in their
[1:21:24] Speaker 2: mind and. Hearts they just wiped out a bunch of,
[1:21:27] Speaker 2: vermin you, know so to. Speak so, hey it's a
[1:21:29] Speaker 2: net positive for. Humanity and this is the culture that
[1:21:32] Speaker 2: is being promoted from the. TOP i don't think there
[1:21:34] Speaker 2: will be any accountability.
[1:21:35] Speaker 12: Whatsoever, sadly, well there will be when some of, them
[1:21:40] Speaker 12: the dehumanized, other decides to take it out on Some american,

[1:23:47] Speaker 2: was this Old Toyota corolla station wagon and it was
[1:23:51] Speaker 2: funny for two. Reasons first of, all my younger sister
[1:23:55] Speaker 2: decided one day she was going to do our parents
[1:23:57] Speaker 2: a big favor and she was going to go and
[1:24:00] Speaker 2: wash and wax the. Car but what she didn't realize
[1:24:05] Speaker 2: was the sponge that she was using was corrosive or
[1:24:08] Speaker 2: it had almost a sand papery kind of a. Texture
[1:24:15] Speaker 2: so when she was waxing the car with this, sponge
[1:24:18] Speaker 2: she actually grooved circles into the. Paint so she depainted
[1:24:26] Speaker 2: the car and until they GOT i don't know if
[1:24:28] Speaker 2: they did they even get it, fixed it had these
[1:24:30] Speaker 2: swirls in the. Paint but the best part about The
[1:24:34] Speaker 2: Toyota corolla was that on the back hatch of the station,
[1:24:38] Speaker 2: wagon you know those little nozzles that shoot the washer
[1:24:41] Speaker 2: fluid straight down onto the window and then the wiper
[1:24:45] Speaker 2: will clean the. Window, well our nozzle it snapped. OFF
[1:24:48] Speaker 2: i have no idea. How it was an old, car
[1:24:52] Speaker 2: so when you hit the button for the back window,
[1:24:58] Speaker 2: washer the liquid would shoot straight out on the vehicle behind. You,
[1:25:04] Speaker 2: WELL i was a pain in the ass. Kid and
[1:25:07] Speaker 2: we would be in traffic And i'd be sitting along
[1:25:10] Speaker 2: and driving along on the city. Street somebody's tailgating my.
[1:25:14] Speaker 2: Ass now get off my bumper to get and so
[1:25:19] Speaker 2: WHAT i would WHAT i would do IS i would
[1:25:21] Speaker 2: just reach down and and the washer fluid would fly
[1:25:25] Speaker 2: all over the. Car one guy was so. Pissed he
[1:25:31] Speaker 2: had a two liter bottle of, soda like half drunk
[1:25:36] Speaker 2: bottle of, soda and he pulled he chucked it at
[1:25:39] Speaker 2: my vehicle out of his. Window he missed the, car
