What if the outcome of a single election could redefine the essence of our society and the values we hold dear? This episode unpacks the whirlwind of emotions that come with election cycles, from the relief of conclusion to the looming prospects of future challenges. We explore critical issues like war and abortion, dissecting the importance of bodily autonomy and the nuanced debate over defining life. As we consider the potential for political transformation with figures like Kennedy and Tulsi Gabbard, we also discuss the societal response to election outcomes, pondering why a Harvard professor might choose to cancel classes in the wake of political shifts. Join me in reflecting on how radically our world has changed over the decades and what these changes mean for our future.

In a surprising turn, I also delve into the gritty reality of "Operation Skin so Soft," an undercover investigation into illegal activities within massage parlors. The operation raises important questions about law enforcement's conduct and the broader implications for society. Amidst political and environmental turbulence, there's a shared hope for stability under new leadership and a return to normalcy. As I navigate these complex times, I emphasize the need for organic conversations and open dialogue, aiming to foster understanding and adaptability in an ever-evolving world.

Speaker 1:

5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Well, hello, hello.

Speaker 1:

Well, it's over. The lead up to the election, all the stress of what may or may not happen, it's kind of done for a moment. I know there's more shit to come, I'm sure, I'm sure there's gonna be more to appear, but the election's done for now. We can rest. We can recoup, regather, recover, regrow, whatever. Until four years from now we do it all over again.

Speaker 1:

The outcome let's talk about it. Some of you probably aren't happy. Some of you are probably ecstatic. I'm on the fence. I mean, let me turn this down just a tad. Just a tad. Not that all that she wants is not another baby.

Speaker 1:

The outcome I know it upset a lot of people. I know it excited a lot of people. I know it excited a lot of people. I was excited. I guess I wouldn't say excited, but I was pleased with the outcome, my reasonings, because I could see some not so good things stirring with how things were going. Not saying that this is going to be any better, but my thing was, what really got me was the whole fact that he wants to stop war. I mean, what a wonderful concept To want to get rid of war. That would be great. I know it's not going to happen. There's always going to be, because we're just human, that's just our way to fight.

Speaker 1:

But I know the big thing was with the abortion stuff and I can't really relate because I already have kids and my kids are adults and I don't know. I've never really had to deal with it. I, each time I got a girl pregnant, I had a kid, so I didn't really think about it. Never really dawned on me to kill something because I didn't want it. The other reasons if it's in regards to rape or molestation or your health issues, you know, financially I can understand too because I have kids and financially they're a drain. But I signed up for it so I held on to keeping the kid, of course.

Speaker 1:

What I'm trying to say is I understand that it shouldn't be. Nobody should be able to tell us what we can and can't do with our own bodies. It's a silly, stupid concept, design. But the only reason why you know that I would have gone against the abortion stuff because it's you, think about it. It is murder. Because it's you, think about it, it is murder. We can fight, we can debate and whatever else.

Speaker 1:

With the age come, you know when life begins. Does it begin at conception? Does it begin within the first few weeks. You know, use your best judgment. That's all I gotta say, and I'm not preaching because I'm religious or nothing. It's just common fucking sense. Think about it.

Speaker 1:

So I guess the next thing's gonna be with this whole thing, with the presidency, is what is that gonna do? Are we? What comes from this? I guess that's the whole thing. What comes from this? Is it gonna turn into a dictatorship? Are we going to get there? I don't know.

Speaker 1:

I think what this is is a unified group of several different minds that were on different sides for a long time, that actually were on the same side for a long time, but they saw that the other side was going wacky, so they all jumped fucking shit. Talking about kennedy and I'm talking about telsey gabbard. I mean, it's just, you know, I think, having those two join the forces to give a different side to what needs to be done to maybe correct the crap that goes on in this fucking country and keep peace with the world, and keep the world at peace, because we're all human, let's all live together in harmony. I don't know who harmony is, but she sounds wonderful, so, and big, I guess, if we gotta live in her. I knew a harmony once. No, just kidding, um sounds like a stripper name, harmony. That lady's got some problems. Oh, all right, enough of the fucking political bullshit. What else is going on? I was looking at stuff today. I saw Now this is where our state of our fucking country has gotten to. Not to jump back onto the politics, but this is just kind of the asinine shit that's going on with the problems of our society.

Speaker 1:

I'm of the generation that grew up. I was born in the 70s, so I grew up in the 80s and 90s and we didn't have internet until the 90s. We didn't have cell phones until the late 90s. I had a pager in high school, you know. I remember when we got caller ID, when call waiting happened, when you had voice, when you didn't have to have a fucking what's my call, excuse me. I remember when we got our answer machine and when those went away. But I read an article, or I saw an article. I didn't read the whole thing Because I really didn't want to go into it too much, because it didn't really fucking matter, but it was a Harvard professor. Harvard professors Cancel classes In the aftermath of the Trump win.

Speaker 1:

Okay, let's dive that for a sec. Let's dive into that for just for a second here. Why? Why are we canceling classes over the result of a presidential election After the fact? Because somebody didn't like it? Because, oh no, this, the major group of fucking society, can see the problems of what's going on in this country and they decided to get the fucking problem out and the only other solution was who Was Trump? So they voted for him. I know there's a lot of people that didn't. They probably voted for him, that didn't want to vote for him, but they didn't want to vote the other way. But to cancel classes To give kids, it's like somebody got fucking killed. Really, your best buddy didn't get killed, but you gotta eat, I mean, or whatever. What's going on with the? The marshmallowy of people these these days, the softness of them, jesus christ, oh it. I guarantee you, if trump would have gotten fucking assassinated, if he would have actually got killed, they wouldn't have canceled classes. They probably would have been celebrating because of how much he's hated by certain groups of people. I don't know Whatever, but I just thought that was quite interesting. Let's see what we did. We did that. Uh, I'll go over that another time. What else? Oh, I was looking and, uh, I saw I posted it on Instagram too um news article. I saw I posted it on Instagram too um news article. Uh, what? 40 something fucking monkeys got loose. Oh, jumanji the world. It's crazy, it's hot there. We got monkeys running loose in the United States, now alright. Oh, this was the other one. Crazy, it's hot there. We got monkeys running loose in the United States, now All right. Oh, this was the other one.

Speaker 1:

A Grady Judd, I guess, an undercover. This was down in Tampa. An undercover massage parlor sting lands nearly two dozen women behind bars. Now here's the funny part. Dozen women behind bars Now here's the funny part. So there's 20 massage therapists that got arrested for accused or for allegedly offering sex acts to undercover detectives during a two-day sting called Operation Skin so Soft, ha ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha ha. What the fuck? What a phenomenal Skin so Soft.

Speaker 1:

What the fuck. What a phenomenal name. Oh, what I mean. I would have loved to have been in the room to come up with that. Who came up with that fucking name? That's hilarious.

Speaker 1:

Operation Skin so Soft, it sounds like. It sounds like out of Silence of the Lambs, you know, that's kind of like what they're, but I get what. It is Sorry, but they went to several, say. According to Polk Sheriff's Office, undercover detectives went to several massage parlors. I'm curious Of the 22 massage parlors that were audited, 12 were not in compliance with the law. So what was the law? And they were also doing things that were illegal, such as prostitution. So my question would be how many of these detectives that went in to these places actually took advantage of the old rub and tug, rub and tug and let it happen? So what were the details of Operation Skin so Soft? I would have loved to have been a part of that. I would have volunteered to be the one going out there and doing some field research, just to no. Probably Maybe, I don't know Depends, I can't tell you. Let's see. Based on what the? Yeah, probably not. I think we're good.

Speaker 1:

The oldest woman that was arrested was 64. Yes, fantastic, good deal. Oh man Well, good deal. Oh man well, outside of the world burning down, there are the United States burning down on both sides, on the east coast and the west coast. We got a new president coming in. Hopefully things stay stable. Hopefully the world will come back to some sorts of sense. Hopefully things stay stable. Hopefully the world will come back to some sorts of sense and we can continue to move on to what this new world is going to look like, more and more the deeper we get into it.

Speaker 1:

That's it. That's all I got for tonight or today or whatever day. So, alright, you guys take care out there and I'm going to keep working on this and we'll be back another time and again. Anybody that wants to. You know, I want to get some interviews done. I want to sit down another time and again, anybody that wants to. You know, I want to get some interviews done.
