00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:09.900
Yo, yo, yo, is that time of the week again, another episode of the culture. It's your boy Jeff with my man and the knee. Do you prefer ant or Anthony?

00:00:10.019 --> 00:00:13.019
I'm not particularly my mother calls me asshole. So it's not anything.

00:00:15.480 --> 00:00:23.309
Yo, we're gonna do it a little bit different. I think going forward last week, you know, we had, obviously you had some things going on. So we did an episode a day late, right?

00:00:24.030 --> 00:00:38.640
And then there was not much going on that week, we did a quick half hour episode, it was actually the shortest episode we've ever done. And it didn't even feel like that short, right? When we were recording, it felt long. It felt like we was talking for hours. And then when I went back to edit it, I was like, Dan, we only spoke for half hour.

00:00:38.880 --> 00:00:42.750
I mean, the lucky part of that, I'd have to take that Monday off. That's why we did it, if I wasn't.

00:00:45.240 --> 00:00:55.799
And it occurred to me and I got to think and I was like, Yo, and I told him I was like, you know, we could do half hour episodes more frequently.

00:00:51.810 --> 00:01:03.060
Instead of doing one hour, one hour and a half, like we used to just try to ram you know, try to cram everything in one episode.

00:00:59.219 --> 00:01:10.890
We could do maybe a couple episodes a week, you know, I'm saying and give people you know, a micro dose head half hour, boom, but then a couple of days later, give them another dose, you know what I'm saying?

00:01:12.209 --> 00:01:26.040
So going forward, that might be how we're going to do it from now on. Excluding the times when we have a guest, you know, we can't rush no guests. When we have somebody come on here, we're gonna let them cook. So those episodes are usually 45 minutes to an hour, sometimes even longer.

00:01:27.209 --> 00:01:28.379
Especially when it gets

00:01:29.670 --> 00:01:45.450
right. Sometimes we get guests, I just want to talk a lot. But if we have a guest on we'll have one episode that week. If we don't have any guests on, we're going to have two episodes a week. So yeah, let me know how you feel about that. Shout out to the coach crew. I got some merch coming your way.

00:01:45.750 --> 00:01:52.650
And don't give it at three did we should either to the world. It's like oh two. How about three? Man? Fuck you.

00:01:53.099 --> 00:02:01.109
I think we only did three one time, right? We did three ones. Yeah, a couple years ago when we had a conspiracy theories guy. He just kept talking for like three hours.

00:02:01.769 --> 00:02:05.819
Let that boy cook. I could. Yeah, I could have ordered them ship off. DoorDash like, man,

00:02:05.939 --> 00:02:11.340
yeah, there was like the word the earth is flat. We never went to the moon. We live in a globe. We live in the site.

00:02:11.819 --> 00:02:20.490
Whatever. I was like, Oh, shit, so he just kept talking for like three hours. I was like, Yeah, we're gonna have to chop this up. And we released three episodes that we I remember this was a couple years ago. It was like Monday Wednesday and Friday.

00:02:22.020 --> 00:02:24.270
That man did not deserve three parts but fuck all

00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:44.460
right, man, let's get down to the nitty gritty of what I want to talk about today. A couple of things to All right, you know? I'm sure you know I'm sure most people that listen to know about the Dylan Mulvaney situation.

00:02:45.269 --> 00:02:52.799
Use son of a bitch. I think you're assuming that people are way more informed than what the I think should break it down for him.

00:02:53.340 --> 00:03:09.930
Okay, we're gonna break it down. I'm gonna read I'm gonna read it right from the articles and I'll post a lot of articles in the show notes. Because there is a boycott now. There is a but a boycott of Bud Light. Right?

00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:22.020
That's gonna fail. It all started in April, which is now this month. About a week or two ago, they sent an influencer named Dylan Mulvaney a handful of beers, right. Mulvany in turn posted a video of herself.

00:03:22.919 --> 00:04:27.000
Dressed like Holly Golightly from Breakfast at Tiffany's using the Set beers to celebrate both March Madness. And her first year of womanhood. One of the cans featured her image they put her image on the can. It was part of a paid sponsorship deal and promotion for some sort of sweepstakes challenge where people can win something like$15,000 from from Bud Light by sending in videos of themselves you know, promoting Bud Light, whatever. This made some people very mad. Why? Because Mulvaney is transgender people like kick rocks, let him make videos where he's shooting the cans. Travis Trent says he's banning the brand from his tour. Many on the right are calling for a boycott of the best selling beer in the country. If this all sounds ludicrous, it's because it kind of is. And in the video that Mulvaney did she's like talking about March Madness right? And let me find her direct quote from the video where she goes

00:04:28.019 --> 00:04:31.529
I've already got thoughts on it I find to be hilarious but please find this you

00:04:32.279 --> 00:05:04.620
know in the video she basically was saying like, Oh, I don't even know what March Madness is. I don't even know what sport it is. But you know March Madness typically, oh, she goes this way. She goes in the video she goes Happy March Madness. Just found out this had to do with sports and not just saying it's a crazy month and celebration of the sport thing, but light has given you the chance to win 15,000 share a video with Eva Baba blah. And this is what she posted like on her Instagram or Twitter or whatever right? I'm more mad at the fact that she doesn't know what the foot march madness is.

00:05:06.209 --> 00:05:35.189
Not like if you're trying to promote March Madness, you don't want to have you know, I don't care whether there's trans, gay, straight, whatever. I'm not gonna use somebody to help me, you know, promote this event in my beer. If you don't even know what the fuck this shit is, like, if this is supposed to be a March Madness campaign, I'm going to try to find somebody that knows what the fuck March Madness is. That's my beef with the shit I don't give a fuck that she's trans. And we'll get to that in a little bit. You feel me?

00:05:35.370 --> 00:05:43.110
Yeah. But you got to understand like, the person's an influencer. Most of them don't know what the fuck they're sponsoring, just like give just to kind of take the check.

00:05:43.800 --> 00:05:57.779
Right? And it wasn't like sponsored by the NCAA or something else like that. As a sports fan, like, like, I can see how someone would know what March Madness is. But the majority of people really don't like even when people do like Office pools for March Madness.

00:05:54.060 --> 00:06:14.579
They have no idea what the teams or whatever, like, Okay, those are birds and like birds and though the Bulldogs are like dogs and start picking fucking teams, it doesn't really click to them it just something that they do. So at least they were honest, admitted, like, I know nothing about the sports sheet.

00:06:11.490 --> 00:06:14.579
I thought it was something else.

00:06:14.579 --> 00:06:18.149
But yeah, Happy, Happy March Madness, like, great.

00:06:19.079 --> 00:06:30.899
But what do you feel about the backlash that Heiser Bush is getting now, because ever since this has started, Anheuser Busch a stock has gone down, they've lost something like $5 billion dollars yo in market cap,

00:06:31.170 --> 00:06:31.860
it'll come back.

00:06:33.300 --> 00:06:49.769
But it's just it's just to tell you you don't I'm saying like, sometimes you want to be inclusive, and this is what they want you to know. They're trying to be more inclusive. And it's like, fuck, we're gonna lose, we're trying to gain this demographic, and we're gonna lose this demographic, you know, I'm saying, and it all comes down to what's you know, what's best for our bottom line.

00:06:51.000 --> 00:07:53.009
And, I mean, you can't even hedge the bet in all honesty, because what it comes down to is like, the world itself is expanding, people are different. This is not what it used to be in regards to, you know, gender and sexuality and things of that nature. So you want to get a broader audience in regards to selling your product you want to get at the whole point of view selling things, you want to get it in the hands of as many people as possible. The thing with Iraq is funny because I'm like, You shot up the beer, but you bought the beer like, the the fuck, like, he lets off an AKA against it. I want someone like I'm banning it from my tour. So once before, look, Budweiser is one of those like American institutions, they're gonna lose it, but it'll come right back. It's like, I don't think people going to go to ball games and be like, you know, what, give me any other beer besides Budweiser. Like they have stadium deals, they have deals with teens, so on so forth, where they like the exclusive, like, you know, no beverage provider, so on and so forth. So you don't walk into a game and not drink beer at all.

00:07:49.889 --> 00:08:01.649
I don't believe that. And I believe the whole thing come that kind of comes down to because we discussed this off air. It was an individual thing for a particular achievement.

00:07:58.589 --> 00:08:10.079
And that was it nothing more nothing less than if it was gonna be on every bottle and sailed around the country like people were trying to find it like none of that is an exclusive thing for this person.

00:08:10.079 --> 00:08:35.639
And that's what the the the influencer deal worked out to be where they worked it out what boat was for them to attend and this commitment, remember, commemorative bottle. And so my whole thing is like I don't get what the fuck y'all are you trying to tell me because someone's transgender they don't have like the right to drink beer is fucking beer so universally. Everybody drinks beer? I had beer when I was like seven years old. I probably shouldn't admit that yet, but fuck it if it happened.

00:08:36.298 --> 00:08:38.788
Yeah, but terrible.

00:08:36.298 --> 00:08:38.788
Parenting broke. Amen.

00:08:38.850 --> 00:08:43.169
Amen. Amen. Hey, Cole.

00:08:38.850 --> 00:08:51.210
40 father dollar 29 that do the best they can to not give one fuck. I salute him. I salute him to have that little yellow food stamp. What singles? Thank you.

00:08:51.600 --> 00:09:02.309
Well, thank you as well your mama was he didn't give a fuck naughty Loki put into writing a brown bag and he's always taking it home like, Nah, we're taking this home dog. We drink tea and spit it right up. It sucked.

00:08:59.399 --> 00:09:07.679
What the whole thing with this situation is dumb. It's really really dumb. Come on Lal, you get mad at them about something that doesn't concern you at all.

00:09:07.980 --> 00:09:19.470
Like, that's the whole problem with people at all like this shit. It's got nothing to do with you. What you're trying to say that transgenders can't drink beer because this person was like his own the bottle.

00:09:15.389 --> 00:09:28.559
They've had a lot of people that have been sponsored by what Budweiser is. Especially let's say like, something like NASCAR, where some of the things that they said and done in the past have been kind of problematic.

00:09:28.559 --> 00:11:07.950
But guess what, people kept drinking beer. Like this, this right here. This is the tipping point tonight. I can't drink Budweiser anymore. Like I can't support this. You've got to phase yourself out because like I said, these companies are becoming more inclusive. They want to keep more people involved. So what's going to happen is that the thing that you're talking about or bitching about all these other companies are gonna start doing it too because like I said, there's more money to be made. There are more people who like your products. They like the product that are supportive of them and they will buy your product because you are supportive of them. Now if they get involved in everything in all companies To make like exclusivity inclusive and apologize, a big thing we're gonna be left with like Alpo or cat food or some shit like that. You can't you can't block somebody from being whatever they want to be just because you feel a particular way and like I said, they take this one thing from this one person and it may be a big ask grandstanding statement about I will not allow this company you know, to sponsor beer on my show, I will not be drinking Budweiser alright man cool fuck you like other people are going to drink it this whole process the way that people go about this to me it just recognize the dumbness of what we do sometimes and like I said, you're running up names that people said I'm we're not doing this shit no more. I'm guessing they're white, right? Yep, bingo. All right, like I said people of color in our community we don't do that like I'm gonna drink what I want to drink like if they want to drink it and go right on it but they're gonna influence me like this. It's not changing anything like I said they only did it's not like they went from store to store promoting it they just had on Instagram the shirt off things showing up there one year achievement alright man good for you. You got the bottle everything's gonna be alright.

00:11:08.370 --> 00:11:13.889
But this other outside knows about them dealing with this shit and everything else. It doesn't make sense. It doesn't lead why

00:11:14.729 --> 00:11:40.649
as of like three days ago, Anheuser Busch had fallen 5.02% in the market cap according to Dow Jones market data group and probably more now, the stock went from 66 point $73 per share and it closed at 63 Point $38 From March 31 till three days later and check this out.

00:11:34.109 --> 00:12:18.509
According to daily wire new details emerge over mistake quote unquote mistake that led to Bud Lights paid marketing engagement with trans influencer. It goes on to say new details have emerged of what allegedly happened inside Anheuser Busch earlier this spring that led to a highly controversial transgender influencer landing a paid marketing engagement with one of the company's top brands and this is a quote no one at the senior level of the company was aware of but lies polarizing partnership with Dylan Mulvaney Sources close to the situation claim this company has also allegedly pausing its marketing efforts and scrambling to implement a more robust process for evaluating future influencer partnerships. So they saw the money getting fucked up and all of a sudden they're like, oh, shit,

00:12:18.539 --> 00:12:25.110
they moonwalk off that ship fast boy like I look bullshit. We didn't know why we didn't know

00:12:25.110 --> 00:12:32.490
bro. We didn't know like I said, I'm more concerned with having somebody promote your shit. That doesn't even know what the fuck they're promoting.

00:12:30.659 --> 00:12:33.659
You know, I'm saying like, that's my only beef.

00:12:33.688 --> 00:12:39.719
I get that but your multibillion dollar company which means you don't know.

00:12:35.489 --> 00:12:56.519
Yeah, you don't know. I don't know what happened. Anybody who got a contract doing Edison influence it? They I mean, you gotta have a contract with them to make money whatever. Like, I'm not trying to hear that you don't know shit. And y'all made a bottle? Who clear that might get fired over the shit. I fucking hate people. But

00:12:57.840 --> 00:13:31.230
this is not the only thing that Mulvaney has been in the news recently about because she made like a video. I don't know if it was a tick tock video somewhere like she was working now. And she had like these tight ends pans. And she's still pre op, right? So she still has the bold, for lack of a better word. So you can clearly see the shit and people were you know, commenting and backlash and over that, like, Oh, you're supposed to be a woman but you show it off. You're bold, right? And and she responded by making a video basically saying like, you know, like she wants to let's normalize the bowls. Like what's wrong with you know, women having a bowl, you know?

00:13:32.970 --> 00:13:37.559
So that you know your statements wrong. Like they're not great. So

00:13:37.559 --> 00:13:48.600
she was basically like, saying, like, let's normalize that, like I man. You know, this is where it gets a little tricky. Like you're a woman. But you want to normalize the bowls.

00:13:49.169 --> 00:13:58.590
Like you got to pick at this point. This is the argument people will make right? You got to pick Are you a man? Are you a woman? You know, you can't be both? Which one do you want to be? Etc?

00:14:00.269 --> 00:14:58.740
Yeah, but that's a choice. It's your choice. I can't I can't fault them and try to say what they should or should not be. You made a very particular choice about your life you can transition from one thing to another I support what you got to do and I understand that you're going to receive a lot of vitriol and hate like I said us on a can and all of a sudden people don't want to stop drinking Budweiser the slot influence got deaths leadership people to deal with. But the problem is that you know, they got to kind of figure this part out like this is the this is this is the struggle this is the journey this the path you gotta go that you got to gonna have to endure this to get the place you want to get and like I said, you can say the thing about like women having a boat like I get it but you got to put in the context that kind of makes sense. And it's more of a message that you can clearly and consistently make because you can't say some shit like I didn't kind of split the meeting like that. I meant more like this. Like no matter what you say something got to stand on it. Like same thing with Budweiser Budweiser. Like I said, there's a whole last marketing team that did that.

00:14:58.740 --> 00:15:03.690
Got them going got there. Look at the bottom, a sensitive person could be an influencer.

00:15:01.470 --> 00:15:08.519
And they took a picture of it now they're like, well, we got to review our practices and standards on you know, influencers and so on so forth.

00:15:08.519 --> 00:15:55.379
Because it wasn't not someone did it, someone got the picture, someone shipped it to them. It was a lot of people involved a lot of hands it exchanged through. But it gets to that point. And like I said, once we find out that you're sucking up the money, stock dropped a little bit, like you're gonna have to eat that that's part of the game, if you want to be really someone who the influence really wants to make a change and difference in the world which all these companies say, we're going to be more inclusive and so on and so forth. The the hit, you're going to have to take this little bump in the stock, you're going to be alright, you've made billions of dollars for years upon decades, basically, just drop in the bucket. Don't let the other people come forward and try to influence you to do what you don't want to do. Like it's Kid Rock would have. If you say hey, listen to the kid rob you.

00:15:57.299 --> 00:16:10.950
That's a whole nother situation onto itself, man. In reality, you do what's best for you. I mean, congratulations on your one year transition. Glad glad you got your bottle. It sucks that you got all the tape but kind of part of the game. Just keep pushing forward.

00:16:12.029 --> 00:16:15.809
And now they're saying tampons is that the company that makes the was a

00:16:15.809 --> 00:16:18.600
tampon or Tampax Tampax tampons camp actually. Okay.

00:16:19.529 --> 00:16:25.980
So they're trying to get involved? I don't know. They want to sponsor her now. And I probably would have a problem with that, simply because she can't use them.

00:16:26.250 --> 00:16:29.279
Right? Yeah, until after surgery. Sure.

00:16:30.720 --> 00:16:38.129
She can't use tampons. So they're gonna have her you know, I mean, being the spokesperson for tampons that might not go over too well.

00:16:38.250 --> 00:16:39.659
What a lot of people have begun to check.

00:16:41.100 --> 00:16:42.720
Well, I'm sure she doesn't give a fuck. She'll do it again.

00:16:42.720 --> 00:16:43.679
If the check will be big.

00:16:44.460 --> 00:16:49.590
If you cut me a check out, Oh, I'll sponsor tampons, and Tampax I got no vagina. But

00:16:50.399 --> 00:16:55.649
just like saying it's like paying somebody who's a straight edge who doesn't drink or smoke.

00:16:53.070 --> 00:17:00.960
And you're paying his mom forgot to promote your cigarettes and your alcohol. Like it just doesn't make sense. And that's it both like when do we stop?

00:17:00.960 --> 00:17:05.460
You know what I'm saying? Like we're inclusive on the show. We don't give a fuck what you are.

00:17:02.970 --> 00:17:06.630
But at what point do the you know? Does it stop being silly?

00:17:08.130 --> 00:17:18.420
It's always gonna be silly, because nobody above the dollar. You know, I'm saying is it is there. Is there? Is there a product that you hate? That?

00:17:14.250 --> 00:17:33.390
Okay, you're a Yankee fan, right? Let's say to Mitzi like, we heard someone who heard on his show. It sounds great. We're gonna give you a three year$600,000 A year sponsorship. But you know, they're all met all day. Could you do that? For how much? 600,000 hours a year?

00:17:34.559 --> 00:17:38.130
Yeah, I'm doing antibody above the dollar. I'm doing this antibody above

00:17:38.940 --> 00:17:44.880
it. But I'm also a sports fan. You know, I'm saying like, I watch the games. Like I'll sit down and watch a Mets game. I got no problem.

00:17:45.029 --> 00:18:42.690
Yeah. What was it? It's a story about Ben Affleck when he's doing Gone Girl. So the scene he's in the airport, and have an argument director argue about this for days. Like he's kind of flinx off to get on a plane, he puts on a hat. And he's a die hard Ball fan. And the director wanted him to put on the Yankee hat. He's like, I'm not doing that. So I'll put I'll put on anything else. I'm Boston throwing through the hour, there's no way I'll put on again. And they stopped production for like three days, they came to compromise so he could put on the Mets hat. But that's the kind of thing I'm talking about. But that's Ben Affleck, he's rich. But other people like when said these influences are people who like their job is to get paid to promote product that basically human advertisements. So therefore when it comes to situations like this, you keep trying to say like, well, Tampax runs viral content packs trying to ride the wave. And I'm pretty sure if they offer this person a very specific amount, understanding that they might have the natural body parts to kind of promote the product.

00:18:39.210 --> 00:18:44.400
They'll still do it man. That's how it goes, man. No one's above the dollar.

00:18:45.809 --> 00:18:55.289
And then she's beefing with Caitlyn Jenner two which to me is hilarious. You know when you see like super right wing people of the LGBTQ community beefing with each other to me that's hilarious.

00:18:56.009 --> 00:19:01.380
Caitlyn Jenner is the Mother Teresa transgender her like that's like that's the that's the North Star. Nobody

00:19:01.380 --> 00:19:22.349
else likes it though. But that's the thing other transgenders don't even fuck when you started it. But after that we kind of done which is like to me I don't even understand how you can be part of the LGBTQ community and be like super conservative and super right wing like Caitlyn Jenner is that to me? I don't I just don't comprehend I don't want to say it doesn't make sense. To me. It doesn't I don't comprehend it. Somebody would have to explain the shit to me change the agenda.

00:19:22.349 --> 00:19:28.170
Don't change your politics. Yeah, I guess you could be a bigger woman to do he's bigger than you as a woman.

00:19:28.380 --> 00:19:29.849
So it comes down to don't change it.

00:19:30.930 --> 00:19:43.980
But I in this segment, we learned that and been drinking beer since he was seven. And that people are trippin that aren't that Bud Light has a trans person promoting they be?

00:19:44.670 --> 00:19:45.269
Let's move on.

00:19:48.960 --> 00:19:51.089
An echo chamber. The fuck man.

00:19:51.869 --> 00:20:21.809
The real topic I wanted to discuss today man. Is this Dalai Lama shit, man. Okay, those that don't know, there was an event recently or in February actually, in the hillside city of Dharamsala. Hope I fucked that up. Good enough. And it's a video that went viral. Where some kid asked you know, a little in the diagram was up there. He's like, what? 8090 years old whatever. Some kid asked him if he can go up and talk to him and he asked him if he can hug him so he hugs him.

00:20:22.470 --> 00:20:40.650
Next thing you know the Dalai Lama gives him a fucking kiss on the mouth right kisses the boy in the lips okay cool. And then he's heard you can hear him saying to the kid suck my tongue. And he then he takes his tongue out on the kid was like looking confused. Like yeah, homie, I'm not doing all that.

00:20:42.269 --> 00:22:03.029
And the video goes viral. Hello backlash. And then his people released a statement on his behalf saying you know, like a formal apology saying he regrets the incident and they saying his holiness often teases people he meets in an innocent and playful way, even in public and before cameras. Really. In his apology came after the video, the exchange was took place during an event and hillside city of Ramallah. In the video, the young boy had been seen approaching the Nobel Peace Prize winner before asking Can I hug you the 87 year old spiritual leader that invites the boy on stage and points his cheeks and says first here, prompting the boy to give him a hug and a kiss? That's just sounds creepy, doesn't it? Then points to his lips it says and I think finally here, boom, kisses him in the mouth, pulls the boy's chin kisses him in the mouth. And then he says and suck my tongue after a few seconds poking his tongue out. Like this is Wow, scary bro. And then they went on to say in a quote, expression of emotions and manners today have been melted together and become vividly westernized is what a Tibetan activist, wrote on Twitter, bringing a narrative of other cultures customs and social influence on gender and sexuality to interpret Tibetan way of expression is heinous.

00:21:57.450 --> 00:22:13.890
No, motherfucker. Religion in the churches in general, and I'm not gonna say all our churches and our religions, you know, it's been prominent in the Catholic Church, we've seen it or some others, that abuse and sexual harassment has been prominent, historically, right?

00:22:15.029 --> 00:22:30.210
So when you see some shit like this, what the fuck are we supposed to think, Oh, this is their culture. You could just kiss somebody in the mouth a little boy. under age boy, you kiss him in the mouth, you can ask him to and I can let the kissing in the ballpark slide right because I know there's some cultures that kiss everybody. Men kiss each other.

00:22:30.480 --> 00:22:44.880
Italians and certain, you know, certain groups of people, they just commonplace to kiss each other. Right? I can let that slide even though that was weird enough. But taking your tongue out and asking the fucking boy to suck your tongue? You got to draw the line at that motherfucker. No.

00:22:45.628 --> 00:22:49.618
Maybe? I know, I know.

00:22:45.628 --> 00:23:04.288
I know. I know. It's maybe because we're looking at it from a Western cultural view. Where we have this really weird affinity for compartmentalize compartmentalizing and sexualizing children. Actually.

00:23:05.459 --> 00:23:23.098
Whenever it is, little boy. They always say things like, You're so big, you're so strong, you're so handsome. They'd never say anything about his intelligence, this little girl. They always say, Oh, you're so pretty.

00:23:18.509 --> 00:23:31.259
You're so nice. Your, your legs are so long. It's already kind of forcing them into a particular role, like the way that you get these compliments.

00:23:31.259 --> 00:24:34.469
And when they variable for men as masculinity, for women's femininity. They don't speak about your emotional state or your intelligence, anything else like that. We kind of divide that pretty early. Things come from that problems occur, so on and so forth. But like I said, That's things that happen in the western world you'd like so you've mentioned things about Italians, about their openness and the way that they show affection. And it differs for each culture. And it seems strange from an outsider's perspective. It's kind of like how, you know how no Westerners such as ourselves, looked down upon like arranged marriages, which is something that happens a lot in the Indian and Hindu cultures. Right? So they pick the person you're gonna marry and so on, so forth. Yeah, they do that we find it weird. That's what works for them. Now, the thing with the Dalai Lama understand how there's going to be a little bit of a schism because we're seeing it from again, a Western perspective.

00:24:31.048 --> 00:25:00.358
It's like you're asking a little boy to you know, suck your tongue, eat your tongue or whatever else like that. Before a quick read, like, it's not necessarily in the Hindu culture is not necessarily meant that way. It's kind of like the teacher in a lesson to whatever degree but again, on the Western Hemisphere, the way that we see it now, like it seems quite, you know, pedophilia ish. So am I shooting the Dalai Lama bill?

00:24:56.068 --> 00:26:17.128
No, I'm trying to work within the contextual clues that's given to me. That's what you guys do. I probably wouldn't need to ask and get more information, I understand why you do it. Like, like, there's certain African African cultures that, you know, they removed the clitoris and young girls because they don't want them to have sexual pleasure. They wouldn't be vessels for child rearing and childbirth. And that's it. Okay, we're looking at it. From our perspective, that seems horrible, and everything else, and I believe it is. I believe that, to me, it's probably a crime. But that's things that they do in their culture, things that they happen to work with and work around. So it's hard for me to argue against it. I just like to understand it. I want more detail on it, because it's kind of weird that it kind of, you know, appeared and popped out. That Dalai Lama said, it's strange all unto itself, period. I mean, there's really no argument to it. Like, from our perspective, that seems, you know, it just seems wild shit. But um, I don't know like it kind of happened and kind of blew over like, it's like for us he just he just doesn't have the kind of influences as a once in the past. Like, I remember maybe, before I was born, have the Dalai Lama was a big thing. But I mean, unless you're really into Hinduism, it's probably not something for you. Like, before this incident happened with last time you thought about him?

00:26:17.880 --> 00:26:43.440
No, never. But my first inclination when I saw the clip, and when I heard it, because I heard it on the radio, and then I saw the clip tool on TV. My first inclination was to say like, Yo, they need to go ahead and check his fucking computer, his laptops, his tablets, chances are, you might find some shit in there. You know what I'm saying? You might find some child pornography or some shit.

00:26:39.539 --> 00:26:43.440
I just want to check real quick.

00:26:43.470 --> 00:26:45.029
I don't think the Dalai Lama has a phone.

00:26:45.420 --> 00:26:47.819
I don't think he does.

00:26:45.420 --> 00:27:01.950
Probably not. But that was my first reaction. I was like, Yo, this is probably not the first time he's done assessed some shit like this, right? Sure. And it's like some Trump complex, like Trump can go around and be caught on camera saying he wants to grab women by the pussy, and all of this crazy shit, right?

00:26:59.250 --> 00:27:01.950
And he could get away with it.

00:27:01.950 --> 00:27:12.869
Because he he feels like he's godly. And he has all the money in the world. And Dalai Lama has his holy, you know, figure that people praise Him and worship Him and bow down to him. And he feels like I'm probably doing say whatever the fuck he wants.

00:27:13.589 --> 00:27:25.619
But Had this been like an American figure? If this would have been, you know, I'm saying do you think it would have been different reaction like the, you know, the Feds would have been after him investigating a little bit of some shit. Like, if this would have been some American type shit? Oh, absolutely.

00:27:26.099 --> 00:27:27.869
Like, see what we look for. We look at it differently.

00:27:28.619 --> 00:29:20.609
And I mean, we're not really strong with that. Because, like I said, the Catholic church thing went on for a really long time. And a lot of people knew and they kind of let that shit slide for a while to start cutting them checks. So I can't necessarily say like, we would go out of full force, because we've had our own scandals here in regards to that. So I can honestly say that we try to do the best we can. And whatever relevant moral state we happen to be in. If we're, if we're on one of the moral high horses, we'll get to it. We want to get everything and so on and so forth. I think this kind of thing going on with Donald Trump right now. Like I, I heard from Brett is a good District Attorney. But the whole thing is like, we want to if he's overstepping his bounds, on the sense of being on his more high horse at this moment, I have no idea. I have zero idea. But that's high tide, low tide, when Trump talks about you know, grabbed people by the pussy and basically like, it'd be dragging up people to be executed and shot and they said, low tide in regards to morality. So it didn't really matter. It just kind of catch it the moment you're catching that, like I said, our Kelly sheet went on for a while. Low tide morality, once it really started kicking out with surviving our Kelly thing and really tried to bring that light really, really into like, all the things that he was doing over decades. Morality was at a high point. And at that point, you get caught up in the wave and you get caught up like this. So I guess it was really more the timing of it. And anything else? Remember, like, I mean, I know you don't give a fuck about the guy now, but remember, fucking Jared the subway guy was a pedophile. Oh, yeah, remember that? Yeah, like, but again, little tie. You didn't care. You're probably doing it for a while. Then when it came up like Jared Fogle, the subway guy. Oh, God that God I see on my TV all the time was you know,

00:29:20.910 --> 00:29:22.109
so we dropped them immediate

00:29:23.849 --> 00:29:44.519
children Oh, Lord. Oh, we can't have this shit. No, no, no, no, sir. Jared you got to go. Yeah, moral high tide it goes up you get caught in that way to get pulled back. So with this, like I said, and because I didn't think they even trippin I bought it over there and Tibet like this kind of a way to culture like I don't think that wave moves but here I guess depending on how

00:29:45.240 --> 00:29:50.730
all these Westerners don't know what the fuck yeah. We don't don't we know we don't

00:29:50.730 --> 00:30:22.890
we have no no, we have no insight in their culture. We, we see it from afar. We take the shit that we like from it. We don't take it into totality. And that's kind of the problem with it like you except shit you like but you don't disregard that shit. You don't. You got to take it off but with them I'm saying how they have a disregard for us because like y'all do it fuck y'all doing y'all gonna jump your moral high horse when y'all have such you know high recidivism rates prison like rest and basically house people in prison and more than anyone else in the world. But Joe was speaking about morality so like, yeah, leave us alone. Dalai Lama was tripping.

00:30:23.700 --> 00:30:29.940
You know if I told you right now suck my dick you're gonna probably drive over and you want to see me now? I'm gonna laugh you're gonna you're gonna probably want to fight me.

00:30:29.940 --> 00:30:30.269
No,

00:30:30.269 --> 00:30:30.900
I'm alive.

00:30:30.930 --> 00:30:59.160
I'm gonna laugh. I'm like, because you know me but if somebody else in the street told you that I'm laughing too because I mean, cuz I'm not I don't know motherfuckers that will punch somebody in the face that want to fight immediately if you tell somebody suck my dick. Or if you say that to a woman, so I'm some Rasmus shoe right here the problem if I tell you Nah, you ain't understand it in my culture suck my dick. I don't mean like that. We just used that you know as a term of endearment like really? See so him saying suck my tongue? I don't know what that means.

00:30:56.759 --> 00:30:59.160
Explain this. shitters Mr. Mr.

00:30:59.160 --> 00:30:59.519
Llama?

00:31:00.329 --> 00:31:19.380
Is dig and say that though. My whole thing that someone thinks like my take, I just brush it off because I'm like, you don't really mean that you just saying that? She had to wrap me up because the whole thing is like, people get real man when someone says like, you'll suck my dick. I like you're gonna run up to do but he's like six foot four to 80 like fuck now you apologize. And like, just brush it off, man.

00:31:19.440 --> 00:31:27.480
That's not That's not to get offended by people. It's like it's like the most Wow, insult.

00:31:22.019 --> 00:31:31.529
You can tell somebody? Like yo, suck my dick. But like, I don't do that. So no, likes not hard.

00:31:32.339 --> 00:31:34.799
Polls. Not hard, but I'm not doing that. Cause

00:31:37.079 --> 00:31:38.819
somebody might get offended by you just saying, Paul.

00:31:38.849 --> 00:31:52.230
I know. I don't say I think that's stupid. People would be saying they would like Yeah, I hate eating meat poles like they got me chicken the heavy meat that y'all? Yeah, we had about that. Let

00:31:52.230 --> 00:31:56.069
that go. The dame dash event that she takes credit for inventing this

00:31:56.130 --> 00:32:04.259
band pretty much takes credit for Yeah, it's it sounds appalling shit. Pause, pause because he fed Campton Jim said Oh, hold on, do

00:32:05.128 --> 00:32:21.719
you? I meant so I'm just curious to hear what people's opinions are on this whole dollars. I'm gonna shit is it blown out of proportion? Is it thrown under the rug and not blown up enough? Is it a cultural thing? Or is this motherfucker a pedophile? Just an old ass pedophile? You know, I mean, yeah, we're

00:32:21.720 --> 00:32:36.269
not taking these things. He's holier than thou because he's a spiritual leader of some some religion or don't don't get me involved some wild as fan base like y'all I hear fucking pedophiles. I'm talking about No, no, no, brother. I not bad.

00:32:37.740 --> 00:32:43.829
But anyways, you know how I usually always end the show with like a quote. I'm like somebody's inspiring.

00:32:45.569 --> 00:32:48.390
I don't want to do that no more.

00:32:45.569 --> 00:33:01.980
Not that I won't do it in the future. But what I want to do from now on is I want to just make my own quotes to end off every episode America, my final thoughts, so to speak. I got to find a better name for it. But right now is just going to be my final thoughts.

00:33:03.839 --> 00:34:53.579
I've always been open and honest on here about how I feel about religion. I think a device I think it draws people into living a life of fear and never actually fulfilling their full potential. And in the case of many young boys and girls that traumatizes them, religion has historically caused more deaths than any other fraternity in the world. And certain sectors have had a history of child rape, molestation, and the like. The Dalai Lama's behavior this past week is a reminder that any religious figures that you may hold in high regard are human and not as holy as you may think. The argument that Western society over blows everything or misinterprets foreign behavior is absurd. wrongful acts of sexual gestures or misconduct towards children are universally recognized and shameful. I just hope this little boy can get past those trauma that will surely haunt him for years and he can live a full and fulfilled life. I respect everybody's face, and views especially when they are used for good. Just ask our people to use their better judgment when following anything or anybody whether blindly or otherwise, and now become so trapped in traditions, or prehistoric norms. Put in place by an obsolete mindset that hasn't adjusted to today's world. Be kind to everybody, treat everybody with respect, accept everybody and that includes trans people, and live your life to the fullest of your capacity. It doesn't take a religious leader or a book to tell you that we should stop putting human beings that sin just like everybody else on holy pedestals, whether they are a Pope or Dalai Lama or any figurehead of any of the over 4000 religious hierarchies that exist, we need to be inclusive, but more importantly, we need to be smarter as a people. I've always said that the easiest place for the devil to hide is in the church. Let's start using our minds and our hearts more than our souls because our souls have been programmed to tolerate and accept unacceptable behavior and print it from generations of ignorance and ineptitude. Nobody on this planet is holier than you and nobody should be above the law either. Whether that's the law of morality, or the laws of criminology. Till next time, the culture

00:34:53.000 --> 00:36:02.030
