I have to get over this idea that self-promotion is somehow narcissistic in some way shape or form. You have to be that, you know, a lot of these guys that are successful have no problem promoting their stuff, and where I feel like I'm a bit of a dork by doing it, and meanwhile here we are in the entertainment business and reluctant to promote oneself, you know, even with some of the takes that we have, they're meant to be retarded. That's it. Many folks come to the show and take it literal, and I become concerned about the state of the nation on taking a guy like myself serious. I don't understand how we got to this point. Even with the recent video that I just threw out there of the Islamic prayer music being played outside of safe injection sites, harm reduction sites, if you want the political correct version of that, right? And some folks thought it was real. Now that to me is beautiful because I enjoy just putting out nonsense at this point, you know, getting over the fact of or getting over whatever it is inside me, that warrants some form of validation through my opinions, it's slowly dissipating. Really be completely removed, absolutely not because we sit on a podcast and give political commentary, social commentary, pop culture commentary, the list goes on. So the needs to get my opinions expressed just come in long form content now, opposed to, you know, ranting and raving all fucked out, you know, we see this happening. One gentleman there hops on, I had a riot watching this, by the way, this is exactly how I hold on. This is exactly what I enjoy. Now to give, give you a little context prior to showing this video is Trudeau had a tense exchange with a Algoma steel worker in Ontario. Many folks are a little upset at the prime minister due to the overall feelings about how the country is being ran. And many of us, like myself, can't form what we want to express in a, in a, in a cute gift wrapped idea in any, you know, this is where the intellects and the high sobriety of of Canada look down upon these men that go to these steel mills for, for work and they work inside the, this type of environment. But the opening scene is what really got me. You know, Trudeau shows up with a box full of donuts for everybody. The classic, like the bosses in town move donuts. That's, that's what these mouth breathers. They forget about everything. Once you put just a glazed donut in front of a blue collar worker, they, they, the idea of that they are pissed off still is completely gone. That's what a dress shirt does. Yeah. I don't know what it is. Is it the polyester that rubs off and, and, and, and erodes a little bit of the brain? Like, are you not conscious of like how these men operate? That donuts will make them forget of all their problems. You know, one savory little baked treat is what is going to win these folks over. Now, thankfully it looks like he went and purchased donuts from an actual bakery and supported local. I'll give them that. I'll give them the, I'll, if that is the case, I'm, I'm analyzing the donut here. All right. Let's take a look together. I'm analyzing the donut here in one gentleman, right, who should not be eating donuts, you know, like this, this is one of those treats that the wife cannot know about. She's concerned about diabetes, high blood pressure, all of this health concerns of a blue collar worker don't exist. Look at the many men who have sacrificed their lives inside of a steel mill or any form of laboring that doesn't involve sitting in front of a computer desk. Most of them have disregarded any health concerns that they've had over the past. Oh, fuck, since they're, they're, they're birth, since they're birth health, not a concern. That's why showing up with donuts is a morale boost. That's what showing up with donuts will do. You forget about the concerns you have about the, the economy. Once you sink your teeth into an apple fritter, are you really worried about the war in Palestine? Once you sink your teeth into a Boston cream donut, are you really that concerned about the tax dollars being sent to the Ukraine to further a war with Russia? No, you're not. And that's what more politicians need to realize. We don't care to hear you speak. Show up with the donuts and some free coffee, even though there's coffee in the lunchroom, you know, this right here is a good example of a great politician showing up listening to the concerns. Now, this guy, let's get into this guy. The opening shot just amazes me with this. This guy right here, shoveling the donut in his face, zero concern that the prime minister is there. There's sprinkles to be had. I haven't sunk my teeth into a donut in about 14 hours since my last shift. When management came down and said that the prime minister is going to be here, we need you all to sign this piece of paper that states you're not going to act a little suspect around him. We need the leader of this country to feel comfortable. So yesterday, they brought in a box of donuts so that way the gents could feel good. This is a feel good mission. And this guy, this guy is showing exactly why folks need to show up to sight or to the plant with donuts. Zero concern. Does this man look like he's upset about the immigration problem that's happening in Canada? Not, not even in the slightest, not even in the slightest, nothing like a savory treat to remove any sort of concern that you have about the state of the nation. It's amazing. It's amazing what icing and donut and fucking carbs will do to the brain. This must, there's got to be scientific data behind this. I know I'm being a sarcastic asshole right now, but I just found it hilarious that the opening three seconds of this clip is a steel worker shoveling down a sprinkled donut down his throat, only to be followed with the exchange between one of the iron workers and the prime minister. There is two types of people existing in this video. There's those that are following the rules right now. And then this guy standing out there with his lunch box being like, I got some shit I got to say and we're going to get it off our chest right here, right now with this son of a bitch in front of me. Now let's carry on folks. We got donuts over here to thank you for your hard work. We got the donuts. Oh, what is going on here? We got the donuts over here to thank you for your hard work and sacrifice in this steel mail couple of these guys. They're like, whatever, don't care the prime ministers here. Do they look like they put they do these two don't look overly concerned. Now now this is where it gets fun. This is where it gets fun, the 40% taxes I have and now there is rumors floating around on acts formerly known as Twitter as the media would say that this guy is part of a media group that this man is a plant. This man right here is up to no good all for the clicks and it wouldn't make sense. See now if that did make we're going to list actually let's listen to this first and then we're going to give our commentary on it. We're going to invest in you and your job. Oh, yes, I favored our work. My favorite type of exchange right there. Two condescending pricks face off towards one another. That's my type of content folks. This is what I wake up for hoping that more of this takes place and we finally got something. Two idiots facing off. It's like if you gave two foam swords to Christ two guys with cerebral palsy to have a sword fight, you know, it's going to be entertaining. You shouldn't watch it, but you can't take your eyes off of it, right? You don't want to laugh. You don't want to laugh because that would be rude. I just wish that a folks would understand what they're actually truly pissed off about and I get it. This guy's trying to squeeze in as much as he possibly can and I'm not about to go old full lib on you here and be like, Oh, yeah, I'll fuck them steelworkers. Not a fuck. Not a chance. Something that chaps my ass is that it does come out and this guy is part of a media company. I can't remember the name and this just seems to turn into a publicity stuntives of some sort just to get a rise out of the public. And this is why I appreciate the American theatrics opposed to the Canadian one because this is very we've seen Canadian film Canadian TV series. It's under it's under produced. There's no real drama here. This is just two guys in what I would call a polite exchange. Nobody raised their voices. It was just condescending. It's this passive, passive aggressive type dialogue that you're kind of interested in, but not overly. There's nothing to push it over the top. Now, if you would have, there would have been some cussing and maybe some raised voices. Nothing to the extent of violence. We don't need to be pushing and shoving and all that. We just need some more. We need some theatrics. And this is why the Canadian entertainment industry is failing because this guy had an opportunity to really in capture what most of the Canadian public is feeling. He's part of a media group allegedly. Okay? Allegedly. And he left a lot of emotion to explore. That is what is upsetting to me, where on the American side of political theatrics, we would see some more expressive language here. Not this passive aggressive pussy. I'm tiptoeing the line and be like, oh, yeah, well, I pay $50 for my fucking dentist, man. Get into it. Let's see some verbal exchange. And then it was like, they couldn't direct the conversation in a way where both of them could come with talking points, where he's like, well, what about the dental plan? Yeah, well, I already pay $50 every time I go, well, what about let's, let's stop. We need more of us to be in tune with that inner theatre kid ready to take the stage of an improv act. We need more of that. This is why Canadian politics is so dis, it's, it's not interesting whatsoever. This is what gets us going is just a small extent. A lot of people, oh, yeah, like I really told him, no, he didn't, no, he did it. You remember that fucking guy in, in grand prairie that went off on Christian Freeland? There is some raw emotion. That was good. Yeah. Fucking bitch. Get out of here. That's what we want to hear. That sparks a little viral moment for Canadians to be like divided on this, not so much. This not so much because then it led into a debate of like, well, if he's paying 40% tax, that means he's in this town. Hold on. We want the theatrics. We want the theatrics. When the hell has anybody cared about facts? Nobody's cared about facts in a long time. And now we want to start throwing them around. When did, when have we cared about facts? It's the feelings that matter. And I'm feeling a little upset that this wasn't a moment in Canadian history that we could look back. You had the perfect opportunity. You're surrounded by folks that are in hard hats. You got some, everything was there. You had the steel worker shoveling a donut in his face because it was free that day and he's not going to pass up on a nice sugary treat. And what did you do? You blew an opportunity to make this something special for the Canadian public. Really divide us. Come prepared. Read your notes. It's a disgrace. And then, and then we have the audacity to sit back and be like, Oh yeah, the country so divided over what this? This is what I'm supposed to be upset about. Now something that, that, that really gets me going, you know, something that should be covered is a story like this, BC conservative candidate who posted about 5G genocide ousted. That's what I'm talking about. Let's go deep in the waters. Let's go deeper. Why is this woman? Why is this woman not being celebrated? Why? This is what we ask for. This is, this is what I want politicians doing. I'm tired of these stupid debates, you know. I'm tired. Well, in our province, healthcare, fucking enough. Here we go. BC conservative candidate who posted about 5G genocide ousted Rachel Webber, baby. A BC conservative candidate was accused of spreading conspiracy theories on social media, including a genocide involving 5G wireless towers has been ousted by her party. Rachel Webber announced her departure from the conservatives in a Facebook post Monday, confirming she has been replaced with another candidate in Prince George McKenzie riding. Despite these challenges, my commitment to the values that brought me to this point remains unshaken, Webber wrote, "I'm seriously considering running as an independent. More on this will come soon if I decide to run. It's unclear who will be replacing her on the ballot. CTV News reached out to the party for more information." Webber's departure comes after BC united leader Kevin Falcon announced he was withdrawing his candidates from the October election and throwing his support behind John Rustad's conservatives. Both leaders agreed to a joint screening process that could see candidates from either party representing the conservatives on the ballot next month, with Falcon telling reporters Rustad's vetting process has not been as rigorous as BC United's. This is where the theatrics of politics becomes fun. We need somebody like Miss Rachel that is in politics. We need a divisive figure in there talking about conspiracy theories, don't we? Note how 5G towers are the reason your kids are turning trans or whatever the reason is behind it. We all know that every fucking day corporations are sinking their money into something that will just plummet the overall health of Canadians into the ground and that's North Americans as well. The water is poisoned, they're finally starting to talk about fluoride in the water and legacy media for Christ's sakes. And I know this is conspiracy theory, it's got for your teeth enough with that shit. This is fun. This is something that people can get behind. This sparks debate. This is, this is exactly what needs to be discussed inside the fucking house of commons or any legislative building across the nation. Make it more fun. Bring donuts. Isn't that what we do? We got to bring more donuts. Let the psychopath in the party. And this is another reason why I'm still like my, my view on politics is changing. And you know, I'm not no political scientist by any means. I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm slowly learning more about geopolitics and the history of where a lot of this, where we are today and, and how history is applied to it and similar things that have taken place. And it's, and it's quite interesting. Once you start diving into it, you know, since I've slowed down the drinking, I've been spending a little more time in the books, which I don't know is a good thing or a bad thing, you know, I don't know yet. I'm still trying to solve that in my own crumpled life. Let me get this over here chewing gum like an asshole. I didn't even realize I hadn't come in my mouth before I sat down. I was so focused and ready to get into this, but this is, this is exciting. We need, we need her to come out and start talking about flat earth. That's what we need. That's what we need. Because that gives something for all of us to start being like scratching our head and be like, okay, so you literally don't need a brain at all to enter politics. And I'm not saying that there isn't some concerns that should surround 5G towers. I'm not saying that, you know, obviously, frequencies flock with us. It's been studied. We know this. Plenty of reports that have come out stating that frequencies do have the ability to change mood to, there's a lot surrounding it. And her having a concern about it should be taken serious, shouldn't it? I mean, this is, this essentially is the opposite of like, we need to start chopping the kids cocks off. And I got, listen, I got, I don't got kids. I don't have my, my, my fucking toes in the water of that debate, but I do like sitting back and giving my own goddamn opinion about it, like everybody else on this planet. And I think that you got to accept this as well. If we're going to have politicians also sitting inside of these respected political arenas, we also got to have the other side and let that fucking nut jobs scream at one another. Make it fun. It's all we're asking. You know, like, like get them in the House of Commons to start debating, you know, like in Congress, wherever, to start debating on how young you should be able to feed kids, puberty blockers. Let's, let's hear that. Let's make that a fun debate. Let's divide the country. You know, what up, there's numerous debates that we can start having. Why don't we start putting rat poison in the fucking water supply? We already are. Oh, shit, fooled me. But this is the enjoyable part about politics is once you start realizing that most of these people are fucking idiots. And if I can sit back here of me, of all people, can sit back here, kick my feet up, read this, and think to myself, boy, it, you really don't need anything but just a sliver of influence, which is why now we're starting to see politicians and bureaucrats start coming out and they're acting more as influencers than they are politicians. And that it's more apparent here in Canada than it is in the United States because I feel like the United States, the politicians still have a little bit of that old school in them or they got to appear that they kind of have their shit together. You want a villain to look like a well dressed that they can walk into five star restaurants at any time of the day where up here is Canada has this problem of constantly being enamored with theater and the costume that comes with it. And I'm not saying that the theater is good, you know, in America, the entertainment value that you can get from just a piece of content that folks are producing is, it's, it's, it's enormous. The entertainment industry there is just fascinating. The, the lengths that they will go to look at 9/11, 9/11. Look at the lengths that America will go to entertain you 9/11. They sat there. The CIA dries up this massive great fucking plan to fly a couple planes into the building. So that way they can invade the Middle East. Is Canada doing that? No, all that was all entertainment, all entertainment. And we soaked it in. We bought it. It was great. It was a wonderful propaganda to then sell you the idea that we should be invading the Middle East because they have fuck because Saddam Hussein has weapons of mass destruction. That's, that's entertaining. But then you, you, you, you shift your focus from America to the Great White North and we're up in arms because some lady has some concerns about 5g towers. You know what I mean? You get what I'm saying here? It's, it's disheartening because we have a lot of free time on our hands. We're not sitting here, you know, having to drum up public support so that way we can go invade anywhere if, if Canada said that we were going to invade somewhere like Somalia, the whole world would laugh. They would laugh. They'd be like, with what? You sent everything to the Ukraine. What are you going to go over there with? CCM hockey sticks and started clubbing these guys over the head like they're fucking baby seals. Is that what you're going to do? What could we do without the support of the United Nations? Practically nothing. We are literally just a money laundering fucking bank account for these war hawks, these chicken hawks. So what I'm saying is let's utilize this free time to make everything a little bit more interesting. Yes, I like the fact that a woman is a little concerned about the five G towers and start spreading this, this type of content on the internet, you know, like the process will see right here in the article right here in the article. They've removed her. Okay. That process will see dozens of conservative and united candidates lose a party endorsement over the coming weeks, Weber came under fire for her years old social media posts last month, including one that reportedly suggested five G towers contributed to the spread of COVID-19. That is great. Another post claim five G can mess with the absorption of oxygen in the human body, according to an August 20 news release from the BC United, the posts have since been removed while announcing her departure from the conservatives on Monday, Weber accused her former party of running under the guise of the name conservative while allowing BC United to infiltrate its ranks. We need a candidate in this writing who is actually a conservative and will fight for these communities, not self seeking opportunity opportunistic candidates who will run for whatever party approaches them. She wrote another great point. That's why looking at the political climate of British Columbia, it should it should raise a concern that politicians have no pro they don't care who they're running for. They don't care. If they did care about the flag that they carry so much, you would think that the BC United is the liberal party and they cross over enjoying the conservatives in the fight to try and take it. It's all just one convoluted mess that we're never going to really truly get to the bottom of. These people hop in these positions, they're paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to practically do nothing to enrich Canadians or solve problems that we actually have concerns of. One of the main concerns right now is mass immigration in Canada. What has happened, it has taken a minute. There's been concerns raised about this for quite some time. We've seen this coming down the pipeline. Many folks have spoken out against it and they were smeared with the brush of being a racist over concerns that we don't have the infrastructure to support the influx of the population that's about to touch ground in Canada. And somehow having concerns about that is racist. Now I started playing this little game on Twitter or sorry Google where I would just take any object, any object in your house. You can look around. You can play this as well. It's a fun little game and we're at the point now where everything is literally racist. And I thought to myself the other night, I was like, "Oh, you know what? If this is true, because I've seen a tweet about that, everything is racist." And I thought to myself, "Is this true?" My investigative journalist that's deeply inside me thought to myself, "I've got to get to the bottom of this." So what I did is I spun around in my office chair and then I would point at something. I would just cover my eyes and point at something and it'd be like, the Google search would be, "Is blank racist?" And I typed in bike lanes for the first one. It was the first thing that came to my mind, "Are bike lanes?" There's no way a bike lane could be racist. And I was corrected. I was corrected. Bike lanes are inherently racist because apparently they only exist really and are not urban, sorry, excuse me, in more upper-class neighborhoods where there is investment in the community. And I thought to myself, "Well, maybe if they stop stealing the bikes, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, don't even go there. Don't even think that that's funny, okay?" But literally, that was the game I was playing the other night just to enjoy myself a little bit, just to have a giggle. What else could possibly be racist? And it turns out everything is. Now I have a solution for this, okay? For those that do get smeared with this, now this is going to be an unpopular opinion that I usually have, okay? But maybe it will help solve a little bit of this, like, we say racist, that's racist too much, or you're a racist, you're a Nazi. Now, I think I've come up with a plan that could possibly help so we can identify the true racist. Because at this point, everything, like I said, I googled, "Are bike lanes racist?" And there was a thesis wrote by some asshole saying that they are. So now what I'm saying is if you're going to slander somebody with these labels, I think it has to be like deeply rooted in truth. Have you caught this person at a rally where they're burning across or, you know, doing something that's like deeply seated in racism, okay? And if you're not, I think that we should all carry around those yellow flags that NFL referees have, and you can challenge that, like a coach's challenge. And you throw it up in the air, you challenge it, and if they're wrong, you know, we take it to a panel, an unbiased panel, and if they're wrong about your opinion being racist, then you get to hit this person in the forehead with a plank. I think that's a great idea. I think that's a great idea because maybe the plank will knock some sense into them. You get to release the frustration that is built up inside you of being slandered in such a manner that you, you know, you may lose your job, you may lose family members, a lot of things can happen with slanderous, slanderous bullshit that's being thrown at you. And I think that would help us solve a little bit of the issue of how everything is racist, you know, like the, like I said, many folks did have concerns prior to where it became a popular opinion. What I'm seeing online anyways is now it's becoming a popular thing to be anti-immigration. You know, and it took a minute to get there, but now the overall consensus of the public now is leaning that things aren't going so well. A lot of jobs have been, you know, given to temporary foreign workers and it doesn't seem to be sustainable with the current Canadian economy and a lot of people are being, sorry, a lot of people are upset about this and rightfully so. I think that you should be able to voice concern without having to censor yourself entirely due to the fact that some looney tune is going to label you something that you aren't, that you aren't. It's crazy. I found this quite interesting. I found this quite interesting. Now a lot of like ex journalists that are now resorting to, you know, Twitter or TikTok or whatever media or social media outlet that they can get their news, what they want to report on out to the public. They don't want to quit what they're doing. And rightfully so. I mean, if that's what you want to do, you have every right within this country to do so. And legacy media is seeing this and now are like converting their news to more of a TikTok style. It looks, it's not the same production value of what we've seen in the late to 2010s anymore. Now we're looking at everything is like watered down and simplified and can be done in a fucking room that I'm sitting in. Literally. I created a fake news story with a green screen and the table that is sitting in front of me and people were duped into believing it's real. So it's not that hard to produce anything anymore, you know, so the hundreds and millions of dollars that are being pumped into these organizations like the Canadian broadcast corporation, it just seems meaningless at this point. And even the news that they're being that they are reporting, this is where the concerns of folks, they're leaning of like more away from it because it just seems like bullshit to them. And where you see bullshit and you smell bullshit, it's most likely it's a Hindu prayer. Oh, you didn't see that coming. I'm sorry. I didn't mean that. That just it's it's rooted in me and it's a joke, folks. I'm not I'm not here to be an asshole. It was a joke. It's just a goofy little thing to say. But what I'm what I'm getting at here is after doing some digging around and I read the report from Kareem Assad named Hategate and she did an investigation into the Canadian anti hate network and they they the organization is really it's it's an NGO that that puts their time and effort into covering the far right now what what is the far right? We still don't quite know, but it gets thrown around a lot. That term gets thrown around a lot if you are even slightly conservative conservative. You get labeled with far right for not being you know, whatever it is happening over there or whatever story or new policy that isn't progressive to the point that we should be allowing mutants into women's bathroom to fucking watch them shave their pussy. I don't know and apparently you can shave your your your male pussy inside of women's and and and and and if they don't collect the pubes and create a beard inside and not not we're getting to out there in the weeds none of this like this isn't even funny. What are you talking about? That's disgusting. What's wrong with you? But what what I found out is that this organization the Canadian anti hate network is then subsidized by the Canadian government and they are labeled hate experts for some odd reason. I didn't even know that there was experts in hate I and where am I? Why am I not in this committee? Apparently I'm very good at it. I'm a hater. I don't like a lot of things in fact and why am I not on this committee? I'm a hate expert. I I believe like I hate a lot of fucking things I do I truly do I hate that when I go to the convenience store that they're senior citizens with a stack of lottery tickets just wasting my fucking time 45 minutes of my goddamn time is dedicated to standing behind this individual just so I can buy a pack of Gama Gatorade and get on my merry fucking way you know. But I politely stand there and I allow this poor old elderly woman to rifle through the months of lottery tickets that she's collected in hopes that possibly she won 60 million dollars anyways this organization is subsidized by the Canadian government and the that they are labeled to hate experts right and and this is what I find interesting is that legacy media in Canada then went to them to get their expert opinion on what's happening in the political climate surrounding the trucker convoys so now you're using something that is all some entity that's already subsidized by the Canadian government and then you move on to legacy media which is also subsidized by the Canadian government to then report on Canadian citizens who are paying into both of these programs to essentially lie to the Canadian public and deceive them into thinking that most of these people there are neo-Nazis so that's the part that where I don't understand how how ctv cbc global don't get why most of the Canadian public don't find their reporting to be authentic or truthful at this point because when when when the government is funding all of these organizations and I'm not saying and and and even for most of bright leaning media is then it they're operating based off donation and subscriptions which then they have a little bit of a they wear their bias on their sleeve which is kind of nice to know that you're going and you know the reporting is going to have a slight slant towards whatever political fucking party they're affiliated with and that's all right that's fine too as long as you're understanding of that where with this we have the understanding and it's and it's very well known that it is propped up from government money similar to the Canadian anti-hate network and I believe that this and this is even like slights at either of these I just think it should be public knowledge is all like I think these are things that should be discussed constantly because the the faith that the normal person has when they go to these media outlets for the articles that they're writing obviously there there is a bias there or it's filtered the stories that that are meaningful possibly get thrown out and then we're led to constant I guess the scrutiny and being under the microscope of like what are they honestly trying to tell us where you know all American media is you know that it's out of control well yeah because you know you know what you're buying into obviously CNN is more of a left-leaning news organization when Fox News is your right-leaning or news organization and they have an audience that they carry cater to and it's entertainment they all know Fox News or Fox Entertainment you know that it is it is drilled into your head you know what you're buying into now do a majority of people maybe know that I don't know I don't care but I just I found that interesting I just found that interesting that that that legacy media in Canada cannot quite understand maybe they do and they're just like ignoring it for the sole fact of like this isn't going it away anywhere this isn't going anywhere fast and even the folks that here's the thing with CBC comedy as well and and look I'm never going to be hired by them I'm I'm I have already came to terms with myself that I am probably never on there I'm not even a sniff away from being on any of their shows a part of any of their programs especially after the last little media cycle that was surrounding us I'd imagine that I'm not going to be their guy anytime soon so I've I can openly talk about this and and not fear that I'm going to miss out on opportunity because I'm never going to get that opportunity anyways but right now I'm seeing a lot of folks that are upset over this hour has 22 minutes and the the comedy that they produce now one thing that again this is a subsidized media corporation okay this this goes through a lot of fucking people before they produce these sketches now the people being hired by these the the comics writers that that they're all quite similar it's a hive mind inside you know like you can look at the writers where they graduated from what they've worked with they know the game there's a game to be played here whether they believe it or not it's entirely up to them and whatever who cares now to keep that job obviously you're gonna write shit for the audience that probably watches this hour has 22 minutes and I assume that they're going to be a little more left leaning for obvious reasons so they write comedy for those people and then you have right wing leaning people getting pissed off over this comedy and now there are plenty of comedians in this country that don't align themselves with the code of conduct that's placed in front of them with a lot of these theaters I assume that that someone I assume okay and I say this because I haven't found any code of conduct or rules or regulations that that pertain to the writers on this hour is 22 minutes okay and for those that don't know what this hour has 22 minutes is it's essentially like a late night talk show spoof sketch show that that that just can't refrain from making every one of their sketches as some sort of gay the fucking musical a lot of musicals happening there you know a lot of musicals taking place out there and there's no again hand-stied I'm never going to be there so what do we do and I'm never going to be on CBC Jimps I'm not their flavor I get that the CRTC has rules and regulations that they have to abide by on what can be put on Canadian television and radio and I don't think that they want somebody like me going up there and be like boy fags are weird aren't they hey they stank gonna have ha that's six million huh you think that's what they want what if I yell free Palestine free Palestine more like half off that should get him out of it I'm not their flavor but a lot of lot of right leaning guys are like upset this is what my test dollars you go to yes yes they are what are you going to do about seeing this is like the solution to this is very simple and I'll keep saying it over and over and over again the solution to this is very simple if there's comics that you like and you enjoy and they lean into more of that space that shouldn't be talked about or oh that's racist then you there's an obligation to pump and promote those comics so that that way there is a popularity that surrounds them because once but here's one thing that I've noticed is you a person like Dave Chappelle can thrive off the controversy because he's popular he's very popular everybody knows who he is he has a fan base that he's won over 10 times over talking about the subject matter that he does you know when when the controversy outweighs the popularity people get a little skittish on whether or not they want to associate with you now if I was sitting with 1.1 million followers on Instagram YouTube whatever social media platform a lot of these places wouldn't have an issue with what we say and what we do because you sell tickets over the course of a weekend and understandably sell because entertainment is also a money making business they don't give a shit what your political affiliation is and if you do you're a fucking idiot you know what I mean if you're more concerned about the political affiliation of who's ever taken the stage and not more concerned on whether or not they can sell tickets inside your club I think you're a horrible businessman at that point you got to step away from it and scratch your head and possibly sprint off a bridge or make an appointment with the maids program because that's what this entertainment industry bullshit all it is it's just ha ha fucking jokes punch me in the cock I'll try and bend you over you try and bend me over let's all walk away with a little bit of scratch in our pockets and to think that there's some sort of fight that we need to put up with no these are just the thoughts and the feelings of an individual that's creating the comedy that's it that's it there's nothing more to it okay nobody nobody in their right mind should have the idea instilled in their head that you're going to shake and change the world enough get up on the stage tell your dumb jokes that's it that's you know even with looking back and seeing the controversy that surrounded us for that that moment of time and seeing the reaction to it seeing the reaction now most people that are very outspoken hopped on it because it was an opportunity to virtue signal that they're good people because they want to see us done over that it was a way to destroy something in the name of being righteous where I find that the other side you know they're they're just maybe the nature of the the the joke or the nature of the shirt even wasn't enough for them to grab a hold and be like whoa yeah I get it you know I get it I totally get it I understand but they're there is a need and want for attention and I would be a liar if I don't want if I would be a liar if I said I don't want the attention because the attention then gets me into a place where you know maybe we do do a weekend in fucking New York or Austin and we're able to sell tickets of course you want that of course you want that as a comic you know do you do you want the arena and fill up Madison Square Garden and all that that's that's up to you would it feel good I would imagine it feel it would feel amazing to pop like pack out radio city in New York in New York excuse me for the doubling up there but here in Canada we would rather complain rather than prop up those comics and give them the opportunity you know there's plenty of people like I see so many people right now on Twitter bitching and moaning about CBC's this hour has 22 minutes when in reality there are plenty of comedians that are putting out content and touring their act that would align more with you and you have an opportunity then to push these people and popularize them to the point where they can't be ignored and if they this becomes the new wave of comedy then those comics they have a better chance of getting into these festivals because they have the ability to sell tickets and then at the end of the day that's the name of the game unless like some of these festivals that have been around for 20, 30, 40, 50 years whatever they're going to pack them out regardless right they know that Winnipeg comedy festivals this weekend every year me and my wife go every year we get our tickets fucking three months before yes of course but I'm saying that these comics then if they're popular in Canada there's an opportunity to possibly go down to the United States and further their career because the ceiling is so low here it's so low there's like fucking nine comedy clubs across the country that are prestigious enough that you would want to perform at and once you burn your name well all of a sudden becomes a little harder but I don't think I would choose a different route I enjoy this route it seems like a little bit more rewarding it's taxing for sure mentally but I feel as if this is the path that I'm on right now is the one that I was meant to be on and if it's going to be hard then it's going to make me stronger mentally it's going to force me to become a better writer to portray the idea in my head in a more in more of a comedic fashion so that way you know that this is just jokes I'm not trying to just be edgy over the top just a garner a reaction from fucking Looney Tunes what I want is just like people who get it that's it people who get that this is just all nonsense we are just living in a fucking false world it's just everything around us and what we see and what we believe is is a constant lie that's it and those people want to just remove the idea of of all these things that they're worried about taxes man I can man every I wake up you want it you know what know what you want to be in my show is the guy eating a donut earlier no problems no concerns I'm going to shut my mind off let these morons take the stage and hopefully they make me laugh with their dirty minds and I can just sit back relax have a drink and enjoy myself for an hour and a half that's it but instead we want to be like I can't believe CBC put out a musical about the fucking trucker convoy put out a musical put out a musical about the trucker convoy that's what you're upset about sounds gay next a musical I'm upset about who the fuck is upset at a me well this is what our tax dollars paying for yeah I get that I would be upset about that as well but I also heard the word musical and I thought to myself hmm sounds gay is it that hard to understand walking around like we fucking yeah I'm tired of like looking at things and getting pissed off about them so I've been I've been you know I search for news stories that that seem fun like a conservative a conservative politician getting punted because 5G towers are causing a genocide during the COVID-19 bullshit you know what I mean like that's good that's those are the lunatics that I want talking to me I have fun conversation with somebody like that instead you know like I noticed now that I'm I've slowed back the drinking quite off quite a bit I've slowed it back I in fact I've pretty much cut it out I had a was a friend of mine's wedding over the weekend and I just had like one beer one beer and I find myself you know it sucks because I'm too inside my head now I'm thinking too much which is a good thing you know but it turns your mind to sinister thoughts I feel like at times and be like I and and and kind of slants it more to a negative where I'm like a pretty fun positive guy while I'm drinking where I just can't bring that out of me without some beers and I'm sitting back and I'm noticing that just normal conversation is just so fucking boring to me and and this isn't a slight to anybody that I was talking with over the weekend or anything like that but I just find myself you know you just have a repetitive conversation over and over and over again and then just like you start thinking like a fucking Christ Almighty is this what it was like when I was drunk you know like is it is it better to be drunk and I start questioning my own reality of the situation like am I annoyed because of what why am I what what am I annoyed of why am I annoyed and it's just the inability to like find a good time of being sober and it's all on me it's all on me it's the self-awareness that in that situation is unreal and I know you'll hack how did you get here nobody knows nobody cares but I just found that now that I I don't I don't hit the piss is hard it's like on a Saturday night I'm going home at eleven or before I be like call the guy we got to see a sunrise and I'm up at nine thirty in the morning playing golf with my mother who am I what is happening but I think it's a good thing you know I spent the better half of five years convincing people that that drinking hard and doing fucked up shit is a good thing is a good thing and I still believe that I don't regret anything in my past I think all of that is a wonderful time and those that still do it I am you because you're willing to just let that be your your your fun let that you know where I'm I'm like I got this twisted head of mine that's always searching for more more information more satisfaction where a simple six pack and and and and playing around of golf or or or just you know calling each other you and your friends getting together call each other gay for five hours six hours before going to a nightclub and striking out with sixes you know what who's who's worse you know I mean who's worse and in that situation I feel like the one that's able to remove himself from everything like a guy shoveling donuts into his face while the prime ministers right there in front of him and he has a perfect opportunity to make you know make this a moment for him and instead is more concerned about the get his hands on the only strawberry icing donut that's covered in sprinkles I envy that guy I do and with that being said folks I'd like to thank you for being here for another episode of the Uncle Hack podcast reminder that if you head on over to patreon.com/dangercat69 extra episodes are there I'm getting caught
