Talking Shit with Doug, Ryan, and Angelo
New York, Free Stuff, And Fallout
The couches are crowded, the takes are loud, and the stakes feel real. We open with election-night bravado about “free” everything and pull it apart piece by piece—what gets promised on the trail, what survives the legislature, and how the bill eventually lands on your doorstep. From the whiplash marijuana rollout and gray-market branding to sudden enforcement sweeps and lopsided licenses, we map how policy-by-slogan breeds confusion, not trust.
Then we zoom into city life under pressure—religious practice in public space, eruv boundaries, and what happens when shared streets meet competing rituals. It’s messy, sometimes crass, always candid. We ask the harder questions policymakers dodge: who decides the sound of a neighborhood, how do we balance respect with common rules, and why do leaders announce programs without the operations to run them? Along the way, we follow the money: county stopgaps for food insecurity, subsidy timing, and the quiet reality that reimbursements don’t stock shelves.
The lens widens to power and competence. Are modern politicians trained to govern or to campaign? We argue for receipts over rhetoric and explain why elite networks shape policy long before a bill gets drafted. Then we rocket into tech: Elon Musk’s pay saga, shareholder votes, and the strange dance with regulators; SpaceX contracts and Starlink’s burn-and-refresh satellite model; and the looming fact that AI data centers demand nuclear-scale power and oceans of cooling. Innovation doesn’t float above the grid—it sits on it, hot and hungry.
We close where the ground is muddy and honest: farms capturing methane to power themselves because the incentives line up. That’s the blueprint cities need—clear constraints, priced trade-offs, visible outcomes. If you’re tired of vague promises and want the math, the mess, and the humor, press play. Then tell us what you think, subscribe for more, and drop a review so we can keep this couch loud and useful.

He's not even he didn't even come in in the studio today. He said Angelo and Doug. Oh, Angelo and Doug. Ryan's not here. I did that again. That was actually my very first entry. My very first show, I did that exact same thing. Only I left myself out, and you called me out on that. So I'm sorry, ladies and gentlemen. Ryan is in this studio. Angelo isn't not acting like he's in the studio.
SPEAKER_02:Well, yeah.
SPEAKER_03:So, guys, what's coming? What's been going on? How you guys been?
SPEAKER_02:This is what's going on right here. Uh-oh. Oh. I say, guys, you know what that means? Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:It makes my loins quiver.
SPEAKER_02:Time to masturbate. That means that the polls just closed in New York City. Oh.
SPEAKER_01:And uh we are officially now socialists. So uh guys, take your wallets out. Let's see who has the most money. Let's spread it out evenly. Stop praying to the east.
SPEAKER_02:All right.
SPEAKER_01:Everybody get a rug. I was tired of living in my apartment, so I'm gonna move in here. Why not? Why not? There you go. Can't tell me I can't now. Yeah, that's right. But yours is mine. We're socialists.
SPEAKER_03:I like what you're eating. Can I have something? Yeah. Yeah, give me a spoonful of that. Yeah, that that other half of that sandwich looks like it belongs to me.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, man. So that's what they're saying. Uh polls are closed, but we don't know exactly. Um, we we know exactly. Come on now. Listen, man, a miracle could happen.
SPEAKER_03:Call us made a spade. New York City is as gullible as it gets. You know what they did.
SPEAKER_01:So I actually saw a really good video of Kevin O'Leary talking about this. Yeah. You know, and he's Canadian, like he don't, you know, he's got no fucking dogs in this fucking fight. No. But he's like, you know what's gonna happen in New York? He's like, Mandavi's gonna win. He's like, it's almost guaranteed he's the fucking leader, he's the he's the favorite. He's out there in the polls. But he's like, but what's gonna happen is what always happens. They run on free shit. Because people in New York love free shit. So, you know, you're gonna have free buses, free food, free money, free fucking health care, free fucking education, free everything, you know, free handjobs, you know, no more fucking sad endings, everyone happy endings, right?
SPEAKER_03:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:And he's like, but then what's gonna happen is he's gonna be able to do that.
SPEAKER_03:I'm gonna change my vote. I'm voting for Madabi.
SPEAKER_01:He's gonna say, free hand jobs. He's gonna say, well, the legislators don't like that. You know, the legislators in Albany are fighting back against all these free things now that he's elected, you know? And he's not gonna be able to do any of the fucking free things, and he's gonna do a pivot on all of the shit he was talking about free everything and all the shit he got elected in. And he's gonna try to do little fucking changes here and there, but ultimately it's gonna be the same old fucking bullshit. Same old song and dance? Same old song and dance that Cuomo gave that fucking.
SPEAKER_03:I don't know. He's Como gave us a different tango. I mean, like with Como, he decided to go off on um the pandemic, just do all kinds of crazy shit, sticking uh sick people in old folks' homes, and going and touching uh like grabbing titties. Yeah, grabbing titties inappropriately like elevators or whatever.
SPEAKER_01:And then he's like, that was the most bullshit fucking thing ever, man. No, I didn't know that was so fucking he didn't grab any titties. That wasn't that was not even what he said. He said, like, you look nice to like a fucking state trooper that was with her partner in an elevator with the mayor, yeah, right, with her gun, with her fucking pepper spray, with the fucking nightstick, like are you kidding me? Like, you know, and then five years later or whatever the fuck it was, like, you know, now you're reporting it. So, you know, what really happened there is he wasn't, they weren't gonna bring him down for the old ladies killing all the old people. They're like, But we need you out of office because everyone knows you're fucking murdering people. Yeah, yeah. But we can't bring them down for that because they did that in every state, they forced every state to do that. But just Cuomo was America's mayor at the time and wrote a fucking book on how great he handled Quovid and everything. Yeah. So like, look at that. Yeah, quoted, yeah. So just fucking bow out gracefully with this stupid little sexual harassment thing that's not gonna go anywhere.
SPEAKER_02:That's right.
SPEAKER_01:And just shut up and stay in the background. And now look at him. Now he's back out in the limelight trying to be a fucking America's mayor again, you know?
SPEAKER_03:America's mayor now. I liked his magic trick he tried to pull off. That one, like, like I really enjoyed it, where he's like, I didn't touch women because marijuana's legal. And you're like, what? Wait, what? Hold on, what just happened? He's like, Oh, you're like, Yeah, marijuana's legal now. Hey, cheers. And you're like, wait, no, we didn't even create laws to this, we didn't even like roll this project out. Why you're just honest all of a sudden just saying marijuana's legal.
SPEAKER_02:He's like distraction, right? Exactly.
SPEAKER_03:And all and all of New York is just like, What the fuck? Uh uh, can can you smoke? That's cool. Are we allowed to walk around with it? Like you didn't say any rules to this, you just said marijuana's legal because you touched peop girls. Yeah, yeah, and put us in a weird predicament. Yeah, New York became really weird. All of a sudden, there was just like clouds of uh pot smoke everywhere on every corner, and then pop-up shops on every single corner, and then all of a sudden, like they said, Oh, this isn't good. So then the cops came and started like uh popping all the shops, yeah. So then they got busted for opening up the shops because Cuomo completely screwed everything up.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_03:So thanks, Como. Like, I don't want you to be in charge of anything.
SPEAKER_02:Oh, yeah. The government, in terms of rolling out the uh recreational use of marijuana, yeah, that was all botched and crazy and took forever to happen. And even to this day, uh the way that they doled it out is kind of silly, right? They gave the criminals like if you had to be like a convicted f felon for like you know, marijuana or marijuana. It was like weird stuff, and then you got the license first. It was like a way to be like, sorry.
SPEAKER_03:Well, sorry, sorry, you went to jail. Sorry, it's legal now.
SPEAKER_01:It was stupid because you had to have like a million dollars in escrow. Yeah, you know, and it's like okay, yeah, I just got off a charge for fucking selling weed. Like I'm not selling cocaine, lady, you know, like I fucking got I got some fucking weed. I sold a few pounds of weed. Where am I getting a million dollars to open up a weed shop? You know? Yeah, and then they only gave one license to the guy in Nassau County, and that guy is fucking killing it for fucking a year solid before everyone's like, why is there only one fucking weed shop? And they're like, Yeah, you know, about that.
SPEAKER_03:Uh isn't that the gas station guy though?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, that was like Sing's cousin or something.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, like Bolo.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, yeah, like quote the bolo guy's cousin. That's where you got the fucking money from. It's a boost. And then they partnered with a guy who had a drug charge, and you know.
SPEAKER_02:That was it. Yep. Say a la V.
SPEAKER_01:They're like, look, man, you don't even come to the store, but we'll give you fucking 500 a week to stay home, you know? And the guy's like, that's better than selling weed, man. Fucking hell. Exactly.
SPEAKER_03:I don't have to do shit. And you and they probably they probably drop off pounds to them. Yeah, that's probably.
SPEAKER_01:I think it was four million dollars a week or some shit.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, but yeah, and that's gonna top off.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, it did top off. Now they opened up like ten more fucking shops. Now there's a weed shop everywhere, and that's okay.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, same owner?
SPEAKER_01:No.
SPEAKER_02:No, no, the only other dispensary that I know of is on uh it's actually part of the Mirage.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, it's happy days.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Next to the titty bar.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. What an awesome combination, huh?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, yeah, yeah. Titties and weed, you know. They wanted it like that. It's actually funny because like where is this magical garden?
SPEAKER_03:109.
SPEAKER_01:How do you not know anything about life, dog? About life. About life.
SPEAKER_03:I'm sorry. I guess titties and weed next to each other has like missed my radar.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, just you know what shouldn't miss your radar? A razor and your fucking wrist. Wow. Just end it, bro. Why do you not know about a weed shop? I can't even smoke weed, but I know where the weed shop is next to the titty bar.
SPEAKER_03:See, but when it comes down to the weed shops, I don't I like to go out to the Indian reservation because in the Indian reservation.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, that sounds fucking smart.
SPEAKER_03:No, but you get it half off. You get the same exact shit for half off. So it's like, why not go? It takes an extra 30 minutes to get out there.
SPEAKER_01:I know the guy who sells shit to the Indian reservation. You ain't getting the same shit. No, no. I mean, it's you ain't getting the same shit, bro.
SPEAKER_03:It's branded. I mean, the brand's the brand. If I'm getting boutique, boutiques, boutique across the board.

A guy was like, they were like at a mall or something like that, and it was a bunch of like, you know, women or whatever, uh, all dressed up like that and uh covering their face and everything, and they were sitting down at like a little, you know, tables eating or whatever. And the guy walks over and was like, Hey, can I get the digits? And she was like, he was she looked around and was like, look at her, but wouldn't talk to him, you know? Yeah, he's like, Come on, just put the numbers in, you know. Maybe I'll take you. It's like a present when I go take you home on a wrap you. That's terrible.
SPEAKER_01:Oh my god. Yeah, I was uh I forget who I was telling earlier today. I saw a chick walking down by my house, yeah, like a month ago or whatever it was. She was wearing the full fucking uh the handmaid tail fucking the handmaid's tail fucking heads head deer with the face all wrapped up. Like dude, it was like all white from head to toe. She almost looked kind of like a nun or something, but like, dude, that little fucking weird hat that they had to wear in Handmaid's Tale, like her face all wrapped up and shit. I'm like, that's too much, bro.
SPEAKER_02:Sometimes you like you don't know. Should I fight? You're an American. Should I fight this thing? Yeah, you know, fight or flight comes in, right? Am I running or am I fucking this thing up? What am I what's happening? I'm like, that shit looks like a like at a especially Halloween. That's a that's a hard time, bro. You know what I'm saying? October? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_01:Looking like a ghost and shit.
SPEAKER_03:You're coming at them?
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, I might have to. You can tell the Indian houses though, because they just shut their lights off and shit.
SPEAKER_03:Like, so so my daughter's she's obsessed with uh those mystery toys. So you go to the store and all of a sudden it's just like question mark. You might get one of these 60 toys. Right. Um, I think that might be like hooking up with a Muslim chick. You know, it's like a mystery girl. What's underneath? Listen, is it hot? Is it not?
SPEAKER_02:I mean, you know, probability uh wise, I would believe that there are there have to be some that look decent.
SPEAKER_03:Well, yeah, there's definitely jasmines out there. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Oh, jasmine. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You know, but I if I had a if I had a guess, I'd say like most of them look like a poop.
SPEAKER_03:Like a like a foot. Wait, as the as the monkey or the elephant?
SPEAKER_00:Either one.
SPEAKER_03:You can tell the elephants. I guess so outside, yeah. Because they wear bigger sheets.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:Would you take an elephant over a monkey?
SPEAKER_03:Uh well, we we got a C set monkey and C set elephant.
SPEAKER_02:I mean, a poo is pretty freaking thin and tiny, you know what I'm saying?
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, yeah, but then now I'm thinking that might be the better one.
SPEAKER_01:You just poke a hole in our little fucking. Was it a poo or was it a boo? I thought it was a boo. A boo, yeah.
SPEAKER_03:I think it's a b u. A boo. How did they even talk? It was like that was like a straight up monkey right there that you did. That was pretty that was good. That was good.
SPEAKER_02:I tried. I tried. Yeah, yeah. Aladdin would be proud. Yeah. That was like a fucked up Donald Duck.
SPEAKER_03:Uh which is pretty much the a boo. Yeah. Right. Yeah. Yeah, you just go kind of like does that like squeaky. Yeah, yeah. So, um, yeah, there you have it, guys.
SPEAKER_01:There you have it. Levitown is now sovereign. So it's a good thing. They're gonna start that in the city, but that'd probably be the one thing Mundavi's like able to actually do. Yeah, we're gonna do the call of prayer.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, like Minnesota. I was I was good with the church bells, you know.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, they're not even allowed to play church bells anymore because it offends the fucking Muslim. Exactly. That's what you don't hear.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, and they want to get their like loudspeakers out there and do the yeah, they want to do the fucking call of prayer bullshit.
SPEAKER_01:The no, he's saying something.
SPEAKER_03:I don't know what the fuck he's saying, yeah. But he's saying something. Yeah, and it's at 140 decibels across the whole like town, and it's god awful. And they play it for like two hours, and it's like, why?
SPEAKER_01:They're gonna have to take down a little Jew rope hanging around the fucking city, too. Oh wow, they're gonna do that, probably, right? Yeah, that's big, though. Yeah, they're gonna have to. That's big for them.
SPEAKER_02:They can't because they can't go out during like a certain period. There's like a ton of things.
SPEAKER_01:They consider it their home, their home area, right? And they're allowed out with the rope up. If the rope's not up or there's any breaks in it, then they have to stay inside.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah. Now he's gonna break the rope and they're all gonna have to stay inside.
SPEAKER_01:I kind of want to go around and just like cut it, you know. Is that wait? Is that why? Yeah, no Jews on Saturday today, cut the fucking rope.
SPEAKER_02:No, but it's only during a certain time.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, I think it's like Saturdays, though. I wonder I don't think it's actually that often. I feel like six or some shit. No, because yo, there's a guy who drives around every day to make sure that that shit's right.
SPEAKER_03:Oh, huh. This really plays into the tunnel conspiracy. Oh, yeah, the tunnel conspiracy, yeah. They're all like in the stone. Yeah.
SPEAKER_01:There's a cut in the rope, we can go underground in top times.
SPEAKER_02:We don't need to be out there no more. Oh man, yeah. And and and it's so crazy, man. Like, ah, I don't know, man. There's different levels of like, well, just I guess there's different levels of Christianity, there's different levels of Judaism, right?
SPEAKER_03:There it no, um like the followers, you know, like there's people who are core. When when it comes down to Christianity, I mean, yeah, I guess we do have Jehovah's Witnesses and like some farmers. Like Musl or uh Mormons are pretty weird when it comes down to this in the Christian side. But the Jews have the ascitics, which are like gung-ho. Um Muslims, do they have do they have their gung ho people? Well, there's two different sects of them, right? Oh yeah, they're called Hamas, right?
SPEAKER_02:No, that's the terrorist group.
SPEAKER_03:Uh oh yeah, I thought I thought that was the hardcore religion people.
SPEAKER_02:Shia, and I forgot the other one. It's two. Shia law. There's there's Shiites and like Shia or something like that. I don't know, I gotta look it up. But yes, there's two different ones. Okay. Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:And like they believe it's like Which ones are the more important ones? To God.
SPEAKER_01:To their God, right? So the Sabbath is every seventh day of the week, which is usually Saturdays, they observe it. Oh, okay. Correct. Okay, Friday sundown to Saturday sundown, and what it allows them to do is allows them to carry items like their keys and wallet and shit when they leave their house. It extends their home domain to the public area as long as they stay within that fucking roped off area. And then like they could have like baby strollers and like do like go out and do things from Friday night to Saturday night. That's crazy, buddy. Instead of just being stuck in their house. How do they hack their religion? They hacked it.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah. Like, is it powered?
SPEAKER_01:Like, I mean, that's like the most Jew thing to do, right? You know, there's a way, there's a Jewish way. You know, there's a way to weasel around shit.
SPEAKER_02:No, but like you said, there's a guy that like specs the shit.
SPEAKER_03:Is he Jewish?
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, yeah, of course he is.
SPEAKER_03:He's probably like a rabbi or something. Yeah, but what if the rope is cut? Then he's caught out. He's got to replace it. Oh, but then he's breaking the laws.
SPEAKER_01:Oh, so he does it on the fucking sixth day to make sure it's intact. We're good guys, go ahead.
SPEAKER_02:Not just that, but I think like, you know, in most religions, I feel like like a priest or rabbi has greater power. Oh, yeah, no, it's definitely than like a regular person. So like if it's the seventh day or whatever, and the rabbi's outside, it's like, uh, well, I'm not going straight to hell. You're allowed out.
SPEAKER_01:I don't know what it is. You're allowed out, but you can't bring anything with you. I wonder you're not allowed to like open doors and shit like that.
SPEAKER_03:You can't turn, you can't do it's like I wonder what would happen in the middle of the afternoon on like a Sunday afternoon when you know everybody's out and about and they're in New York City doing their thing, and then you walk over and you cut the rope and you take a picture and you just send it out like on social media. The rope's been cut.
SPEAKER_02:Like then they just gotta drop all their shit and run. I feel like it's a thin, thin ass wire, too. I don't think it's even translucent wire.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, it's it looks like fishing line. Oh, yeah. Just around all the utility poles and like around the whole city.
SPEAKER_03:So they covered our city in trash once again. Thanks, guys.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah. Meanwhile, they're trying to tunnel to China. Yeah. Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:What happens if a bird lands on that shit?
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. They just fuck it with it.
SPEAKER_03:Should we put we should put fishing hooks on it and like drop them out into the water? Yeah. Yeah.
SPEAKER_02:I don't know, man. This country's going bad. Things are crazy things are happening. Uh the whole like uh yeah, Muslims taking over. They said like within a hundred years, we're gonna take over the United States. And uh, it seems like that may be uh somewhat of a possibility, although I I feel like they're at 13%.
SPEAKER_03:The Christian religion is at 73%.
SPEAKER_02:Are you talking about worldwide or new United States? United States. Uh they're at how many? 13%.
SPEAKER_03:13%. Yeah, we're at 73. I think we're pretty solid.
SPEAKER_02:As long as we're so like 45 million people.
SPEAKER_01:We're not pretty solid.
SPEAKER_02:Because it's 330 million people in the United States. Yeah, correct.
SPEAKER_01:So if there's 75 million Muslims, yeah, but then we're not going to be able to do that. But then we also I think it's 32 states that have Muslim mayors. We're gonna be the 33rd state with Muslim mayors. We got like a call in Congress that are fucking Muslim.
SPEAKER_03:We also had Charlie Kirk die recently, and then there's just been an like opening, like crazy amount of people going back to church. I think we're gonna have another crusades coming up.
SPEAKER_02:I was gonna say, when are we gonna start marching in the streets with the cross and shit?
SPEAKER_03:Oh, I want the I want the I want the banner, the cross, and the chainmail.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, go with the chainmail and the helmet, bro. Are you kidding me? Fucking yeah. That's what I should have done for Halloween.
SPEAKER_01:I don't know, man. You got white people pretty convinced that we're just racist no matter what we do. So like I doubt a lot of rising up.
SPEAKER_02:It's it's wild, like the self-hating people out there is retarded. Oh, yeah. I don't understand it. Yeah, like you like you enjoy hating yourself.
SPEAKER_01:I saw a video of a black guy, a black guy getting arrested, and the fucking this like fat white fucking blue haired, fucking yeah, obvious fucking liberal lady. Right. She parked your subaru to come over and be like, is he okay? And the cops like, man, back up. You're not allowed to, you know, this gentleman's under arrest, and they're like, Yeah, but there's all you cops here, and just one guy there. And he's like, Yeah, that's what happens when you get arrested. You know, fucking turn around, yeah, walk away. She's like, No, I need to make sure he's safe. Like, yeah, the guy's just like, Are you kidding me? You know, he's like, he's getting arrested. He doesn't resist, he'll be just fine. Turn around and get the fuck out of here.
SPEAKER_03:The black guy, the black guy's like, go away, white lady.
SPEAKER_01:So guys like, just leave me your number, fat whitey.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. I'm pretty sure they can arrest her for obstruction of justice.
SPEAKER_03:No, come on. Even the black guys know that's the meaning of the Subaru.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, they do.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, come on. He saw that and he's like, no, just get out of here.
SPEAKER_01:They do, but their love for easy paycheck doesn't outweigh it. So speaking of which, uh Chrysler 300. Who drives it? Does it have the fake Bentley bumper on it?
SPEAKER_02:Or it's got cherry bombs.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, it's got cherry bombs. Uh cherry bombs. I feel like with cherry bombs, it's a cow.
SPEAKER_03:So yeah, the whole EBT thing's coming up.
SPEAKER_01:Nah, that's not happening.
SPEAKER_03:Well, what do you mean?
SPEAKER_01:Well, so like they like threatened that, but like, it's not gonna happen. What's not gonna happen?
SPEAKER_02:Like cutting off EBT? He did already. So, like, um they do it, they so it's funny, right? So they cut it off, he did, and then they were like, Oh, you have to do something. So he was like, All right, and they gave a little bit of money, apparently. Like, they released some funds, but it's gonna take forever for it to hit anyway.
SPEAKER_01:He did two things that they can't do it.
SPEAKER_03:He said that uh uh he went ahead and used tariff money. At least this is what I hear. I don't know if it's for sure, but uh allegedly he used tariff money to go ahead and pay for WIC for any single mothers and new children. Oh, within the last uh like year and a half, and you're completely covered, you're taken care of. Yeah, it's it's really to get all of these assholes that are between the ages of 18 and 25 that want to go don't want to go get jobs to get them back out into the work world because we need them working.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah. I think that um no matter what, I believe that there will be some disruption. I feel like it's not gonna be as smooth as it has been for them. So like this month probably be particularly rough. Although I could say Nassau County, um, you know, Bruce came out and he was like, Yeah, we're gonna uh spend fifty thousand dollars a week and give it to like Island Harvest.
SPEAKER_03:Oh, well that's cool. I mean, I mean food table program is nice, except for the fact that what are they gonna do with the food to harvest? It's the winter. Well, no, Island Harvest.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, he doesn't know how to do that. Island Harvest is a is an organization that gives food to the needy.
SPEAKER_03:Oh, so it's a can it's a can organization, so they collect the cans and then you thought that was like when he was in California farming, farming. I don't like you.
SPEAKER_02:Legit harvest. What are you talking about? It's not harvest season. What the fuck?
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, how many people are gonna eat? It's not making no sense.
SPEAKER_02:Island Harvest is an organization that helps the needy who you know need food. Uh food insecurity is like, or food security in general has a is an issue, apparently. Um, you know, it's crazy. There are people, and I know it, and we hear about it because our kids go to school, but there's a lot of kids who don't get any meals at home, and most of them eat in school. So I mean, you know, there are, and that could be from lack of you know, care, or maybe the parents can't afford it, or maybe the parents just don't want to do it.
SPEAKER_03:I don't know why. No, his dad has a bigger war hammer collection than mine. That's why. His dad has a bigger hammer, okay.
SPEAKER_02:Spending more money on that on them soldiers. Yeah, whatever those choices may be. But um, yeah, so they're gonna spend 50 grand a week. But what's crazy is like, who's paying for that? I guess I guess I'm paying for that, right?
SPEAKER_03:Me too, me too. I got one in jobs that they want to take the money from.
SPEAKER_01:It's amazing how they fucking just find money.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, yeah, it is. So here's my question to this situation. So with with the government on a shutdown, right, and then all of a sudden, like, food is now becoming a scarcity because the subsidy is running out. Now, Mandami has a plan to open up grocery stores in New York City.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:What happens when government shuts down and no food goes to those grocery stores? That's only if he po he can possibly get them to actually function properly, like no man has ever done before.
SPEAKER_01:We're talking about two different governments.
SPEAKER_03:Oh, well, uh no, no, because they get subsidies from the federal government.
SPEAKER_01:They get reimbursed.
SPEAKER_03:Oh, so they put out a pocket and they get reimbursed? Well, what happens when the reimbursement doesn't come? Well, that's the whole thing about even.
SPEAKER_01:Even taxes go up. Even in New York City. That's the whole fucking beef with the federal government right now. That's why he's trying to shut it all down. Because he's the the fact is that the federal government pays out Medicare to states, right? Yeah. All kinds of shit as slush funds, yeah, and not for health care. Right. You know, they would love to. Instead of reimbursing fucking health care expenses and doing what they're supposed to do with the money, they take it and open up a free food store. They take it and give it to Island Harvest. They take it and fucking, you know, open up fucking uh hotels for illegal immigrants because we're a sanctuary city, you know? Like they're doing shit with that money they shouldn't be doing, and that's why Trump's like, no.
SPEAKER_03:Can I get some infrastructure?
SPEAKER_01:No, we're not doing this.
SPEAKER_03:What's that, you know? I'd I'd like some roads paved.
SPEAKER_01:Dude, even the infrastructure money, right? Look at California, right? They got infrastructure money to build that high-speed rail. What the hell they spent$100 billion? Built fucking eight feet of it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And uh, and now they're like, no, it's gonna cost like two trillion dollars, you know, and they want like the federal government to give them more money. And like, they're like the Trump when he was in office first term, was like, no, you fucking took that$100 billion and did what with it? Oh, we paid for fucking immigrants and we paid for this and we paid for that. And it's like, that was for high speed rail.
SPEAKER_03:Do you do you remember the other guys?
SPEAKER_01:Where'd it go?
SPEAKER_03:Do you remember the other guys where he's like, um, who's been fucking in your Volvo? And he's like, Mike and the nasty boys.
SPEAKER_00:Yeah, yeah.
SPEAKER_03:I feel like Mike and the Nasty Boys are just rolling on uh Gavin.
SPEAKER_01:Dirty Mike and the boys.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, Dirty Mike and the boys are getting it in on Gavin.
SPEAKER_01:Well, yeah, I mean, yeah, it's crazy.
SPEAKER_03:Taking them as a town, because like this is the like the situation over in California is absolutely ridiculous.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, because that's new. I mean, New York's close behind, man.
SPEAKER_03:Uh yes, like a vacuum.
SPEAKER_02:States in general, I mean, you know, just the way that they've if they can't balance their budget, they have a budget, and you would think that the taxes that they collected would be able to make a surplus of some kind or at least pay that budget, but it doesn't.
SPEAKER_03:Well, government I mean government salaries are too ridiculous.
SPEAKER_01:I think de Blasio, I think it was De Blasio or maybe Cuomo where they did an audit on them, and there was like eight billion dollars that they thought they didn't have, and they're like, the money's like fucking sitting in this account, you know? And they're like, oh shit, yeah. All right, we could we could finish that now, or whatever the fuck it was. Like, who the fuck is it? Like the comp troller or whatever, just like oh, dude, he must insane.
SPEAKER_03:He must have been so pissed. He's like, dude, I had that in that secret.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, he's like, I fucking had that. Nobody knew that shit. I would have forgotten about that shit for a couple more years, it would have been nine.
SPEAKER_04:I would have had eight billion dollars just chilling there, bridge money waiting for me.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, it's crazy, dude.
SPEAKER_04:That bridge money could have been yachts.
SPEAKER_01:It's crazy because we elect people that have absolutely no business background. Like you think about the early days of this country, we elected people. Everybody was a business person, everybody knew math, you know, everybody knew about the value of a dollar.
SPEAKER_03:Everybody spoke like Mark Twain.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, yeah. But then, you know, that added nothing to the story.
SPEAKER_04:But then they were way more intellectual, yeah. They were very poetic. Very poetic, very intellectual.
SPEAKER_01:Like they sounded way better than we did.
SPEAKER_03:Yes, they had better dialogue.
SPEAKER_01:Okay. So they fucking, you know, but like you elected people who were like prominent in the society that were business owners, lawyers, you know. There wasn't a such thing as a politician. Now we're electing politicians, and these fucking politicians don't know shit. They're fucking children of other politicians who didn't know shit. But what's crazy growing up to tell us what the fuck to do.
SPEAKER_03:What's crazy is they're going to school to try to learn how to become politicians. Like they're being put in private schools to get better educations than normal kids.
SPEAKER_01:Well, it's not better education. Well, they're just they're hanging out with their fucking friends who are gonna be their political opponents later on in life.
SPEAKER_03:When you spend a hundred or well, sixty-eight thousand dollars per year on your child to go to middle school. That's for security. Yeah, you don't want your you don't want your child in your school.
SPEAKER_01:You don't want your child in school with your child. Yeah, I I could promise that's for security. That's really what the fuck that is.
SPEAKER_03:I could well, I could promise you it's it's you know they they pay for a ridiculous education.
SPEAKER_02:It's most definitely who you know. So like you know, in school it's all about popularity. Ain't no different, right? So like the people that you know and you grow up with and you you talk to, eventually you have maybe some business dealings with, or you go to law school with, eventually, like those families all take care of each other in some capacity.
SPEAKER_03:So yeah, I I I I see that the in-house feel, but I can tell you from experience of working in those high escalon schools that they are a cut above like normal school. Uh when I went into there, they have tuition. What? They have tuition. No, they have a lot of things, and I'm not saying they get money. They have lots of money. Yeah. Um, and not everybody get in. I've worked throughout the entire New York school district and I've seen tons of different schools and at different levels. And I can tell you that the rich people, I mean, as far as security, I guess my kid could beat up your kid.
SPEAKER_01:You're not working at the schools politician kids are going to. Okay, how nice of a school you went to. No, no. Politicians' kids go to school in New York City. Yeah, they're probably homeschooled or they go out of state. Yeah. I'm talking about I'm talking about like real politicians' kids. Not not like Mondabi's fucking school.
SPEAKER_02:There's uh what's it called? Like a prep school. There's a lot of people.
SPEAKER_01:Well they have all these charter schools.
SPEAKER_03:Oh no, there's like five, but I'm waiting for him to sit there and like fester in this one. It's not a problem. I'm I'm enjoying the hell out of this. Keep going, Angelo. Like this is your this is your bath, buddy. You make it. You you fill it up with all of those lies.
SPEAKER_01:I mean, you think that you're going to like a charter school in Manhattan, and that's the school that fucking Trump's kid went to. It's not. It's not. Trump's kid didn't go there, you know? No, Trump. Nancy Pelosi's kid's not there. Fucking Schuma's kid's not there. Fucking, you know, we can go down the whole fucking list of them, but like when you're talking about real politicians and people who are worried about their children being kidnapped, killed, raped, murdered. Fair enough. You're absolutely correct. They're not going to school in New York. Fucking city, bro. They're not going to a fucking prep school in New York City. You're right. You're right. Obama's kids aren't going there. It's not happening, bro. Like, yeah, there's nice schools in New York City that are centered around education. Hold on. You're not wrong, but rich people will pay extra to have their children learn better shit. I sir? I get it.
SPEAKER_03:I I do I do believe that because of our current president, you may be incorrect. Because I believe Barron did go to New York City schools.
SPEAKER_01:He went to PS 118?
SPEAKER_03:No, he did not go to a public school. He went to a private school in New York City. Okay. Yeah. You're right. But but but but you're absolutely correct. Yeah, there is a big worry going on, and then yeah, you wouldn't want to send your kid if he's a high risk or if you're high risk to a situation where I'm willing to bet Baron Trump didn't even go to school. He just well, no, because he's going to college. Yeah, but no, he's going going to college now. He's he's been you think celebrities go to college? No, of course not.
SPEAKER_01:They all have college degrees.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, but they do drugs.
SPEAKER_01:Okay.
SPEAKER_03:Well, no, no. The reason I bring Barron up is because during the election, remember, Bar uh Trump actually called Barron out and was like, listen, I wouldn't have gotten as far without social media if Barron and his college students or his college friends didn't help lead me in this direction to start talking to all the podcasters. So that's that's the only reason I have any kind of insight that like Barron was a good thing.
SPEAKER_01:So his college normal said like you should do a podcast?
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, totally.
SPEAKER_01:Alright, because college-age people know about podcasts, and Trump being 70 fucking eight years old doesn't know about podcasts. Right. That must have been school that taught him that.
SPEAKER_03:No, no. I said that like Trump gave credit to Barron and his college buddies.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, so he went to uh NYU Stern School of Business in Manhattan, but he didn't return there this fall because of security reasons. Did he go? He went initially. Yeah, yeah, when he was 19. Alright. But yeah, so um, I mean, and I'm sure that they had must, you know, they must have had some kind of security or something like that. But that kid, he should play fucking basketball. That motherfucker's like eight feet tall, bro. You see that fucking guy?
SPEAKER_03:Oh, he is goon. He is goon squad.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:Holy cow. Oh, yeah. And when he looked down at Biden, he's like, I will eat your lunch. Yeah. And Biden just like looked coward in front of him.
SPEAKER_02:I know. Well, everybody wondered what he said. Like, you know, you're gonna die, old man. Something like that. Something. You know, said some shit to him. He definitely twisted the knife at him.
SPEAKER_01:His face was like, what the fuck? Yeah, he said, you're gonna take this orange dick.
SPEAKER_03:Like my daddy's dick wait till you see mine.
SPEAKER_02:Well, that went sideways. Uh yeah, but um, yeah, now Baron's a fucked up dude.
SPEAKER_01:Well, you know, Biden likes kids, so that's true, too.
SPEAKER_02:Maybe one to like smell them or something. Yeah. We want to smell me, boy. Yeah, it's craziness. Crazy. But uh, yeah, no, other than that stuff, um, oh well, so Elon Musk says that you know, government is just like basically unfixable, you know? Because they were like, he had like a shareholder meeting where he wants to get like his uh trillion dollar salary, and people are fighting him on you know him taking that trillion dollar salary. Um but from his own company or from the government? No, no, from Tesla. Oh, okay. Uh and they were like, Yeah, you know, he was gone. He's like, How long have you been gone, you know, from uh like like when did you like he he said in May was the last time he did anything for the government with the government, and he was like, Yeah, uh they were like, Oh, well, so what did you learn in your time there? And he it was like uh the government is basically unfixable.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah.
SPEAKER_00:Sorry, unfixable.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, because I mean there's a lot of corruption with money and it goes all over the place, and in some cases they they want to fix things, like initially they had like Doge doing its thing, and then you know, obviously the budget came out, uh, the big beautiful bill came out, and it had way more spending. And it was like, well, what was the point in doing all that doge shit?
SPEAKER_03:So what so what happens if you do put up a weird proposal like I want a trillion dollars? And the company's like, yeah, no.
SPEAKER_01:So the fucked up thing about that is that the SEC is fighting on behalf of the shareholders who all voted for Elon to actually get the salary because they don't feel it's fair to the shareholders that he gets the salary that but the shareholders don't care. The shareholders were like, Yeah, man, this guy fucking killed it. Yeah, we're making money hand over Facebook. You know, they're like, What the fuck is that?
SPEAKER_02:Either so what he does is he says, uh it's mostly stocks. I want it's all stock, yeah. And then the way he gets the money out is he goes to the bank and he says, I have millions of stock. Yeah, I need 15 billion loan, and it's not income because it's a loan. Right, so that's not taxed. Yeah, it makes you wonder though. So, like after you go through all that, how do you pay it back? You don't, you just take it on the loan, you leave it in the you leave it in the cloud until you're dead. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It's it's a forever debt cycle. Right.
SPEAKER_03:It's a forever debt cycle, and by the time you die, they're not they can't really go after your children because your children are like, Well, I don't even understand what he was doing at the time. And they're like, Yeah, well, we don't understand where the debt is.
SPEAKER_01:Well, they go after the estate in the event that they're yeah, but it kind of it works like he puts the stock into a trust and then borrows against the trust, it's like a life insurance policy. So he doesn't actually have to pay the money back, but when the stock goes up, it pays the money back.
SPEAKER_02:That's true.
SPEAKER_01:So the the value of the stock recouped a$15 billion fucking loss that's against it.
SPEAKER_03:So he has to be at the head of his studio pushing out shit, otherwise, he's not gonna continue to make money. Yeah, basically, yeah, yeah. So if honestly, if he doesn't get this position and they're like, no, you can go fuck yourself, he's gonna be triple fucked. He's gonna be like they don't want to lose him as CEO, right? I know I know what's going on, but at the same time, I'm not really like looking at all the benefits from this. I'm kind of looking at this as like the devil's advocate. And from that perspective, if he doesn't score this gig, he's out on his ass. He doesn't have anything, he doesn't have a fucking rocket ship, he doesn't have a fucking house.
SPEAKER_01:No, no, he still owns all the fucking stock.
SPEAKER_02:Yeah, and I think so. He still has well, SpaceX is privately held, not has no stock in it whatsoever. It's all his Twitter. But is it Twitter is broken up um turning to X and has multiple investors, but mostly his private. Is it making money?
SPEAKER_03:SpaceX? Oh, any of them, any of them besides Tesla. Tesla's the only one that we know for sure is a money-making money. Made some money, yeah.
SPEAKER_02:They're having some problems, but uh the future is no longer cars, it's it's robots now and AI. Yeah, but flying a spaceship is cool. Yeah, I would uh dude Well you got government contracts, so like they want to do yeah, the government wants them to like bring up like some fucking material to fucking rescue those fucking space station guys, like do you want to launch a satellite, huge?
SPEAKER_03:They fucking launch a satellite, uh but did he but did he charge the government to go and retrieve those dudes? Yeah, okay. All right, cool, cool. As long as he's like reaping, like making making money back on his investment.
SPEAKER_02:I just like that he like beats up on the other guys. He'll be like, oh Boeing, you fucking suck. Yeah, now I gotta modify my capsule to have two more seats for the people you lift up there. Yeah, yeah, like things like that. It's pretty interesting. But um, yeah, no, they make money through Starlink, which is the online, the internet thing. But they also burn a lot of money with Starlink because those satellites are particularly small, but they they fall back into the Earth faster, you know, and so they burn up. So they're like constantly getting burnt up and they're relaunching more clusters. Oh, yeah.
SPEAKER_03:I feel like you should put little uh what what is it? The the the drone propellers on it. Well, it's in geostationary orbit. There's no something to get it give it a little thrust away from the planet.
SPEAKER_02:They do have some, so they can move them. Um, but they eventually just fall back to Earth. Like then once they lose, I guess I I imagine that uh whatever it is is not they have a small lifespan to them. Yeah, I think they also like um they're not protected by the Earth's atmosphere all that much. So they get like blasted with radiation from the sun.
SPEAKER_01:So how many garbage too?
SPEAKER_03:There's a lot. How much precious metals are we pumping into these little fuckers just to send them up there to get burned up?
SPEAKER_02:Oh yeah.
SPEAKER_03:The gold and everything. Tons money over like you could build villages with what we burn up in space.
SPEAKER_02:But you know, they found an they found another like asteroid or something like that that's supposed to be like all gold or something like that, and they want to fucking like they're making missions to pump it? Yeah, they want to hump it. They want to go there and grab that, like mine that shit and bring it back.
SPEAKER_03:No, I just go up there and fucking rocket hump the shit out of that thing. A golden asteroid? You want to rocket hump it? I'm gonna rocket hump it. I'm gonna fly a rocket up there and hump the shit out of that thing.
SPEAKER_02:But no, like space exploration, I think that's cool. I I think that uh he's doing what he really wants to do. We'll let him do it. I don't I don't see any reason why. I think that like going to Mars and stuff like that, like I don't know. That's rough. That's a hard thing to really get done.
SPEAKER_03:What's your next direction with Tesla then that you're actually going to come out with something that's going to be robots? Robots. Yeah, robots and artificial intelligence.
SPEAKER_01:So we're gonna go with the um I think first he's doing Tesla power stations. He's gonna end up winning contract for that.
SPEAKER_02:They have those. And we all know when it comes down to like the Tesla battery for the homes? Are you talking about the power stations for the cars?
SPEAKER_01:No, like power stations, the power of cities. Oh. Yeah. Oh, okay. But they won't let him do it because it's green, but it's not the type of green they like. Yeah, yeah. It's not solar panels, it's not wind power, it's his own fucking design to fucking make electricity out of nothing. Oh. And they're like, nah, we're not gonna let this out. You know, but I think that's it's good. We don't want that. As we get these AI data centers that are eating up fucking I mean, like, you need a nuclear power plant to run an AI data center, you know? Yeah. And yeah, honestly, one of those fucking power stations that t that he builds to run two of them. You know what I mean?
SPEAKER_03:You need a dam's worth of water in a day rushing through there.
SPEAKER_01:And then when you see about them seeding the fucking clouds above it to fucking make more rain over these data centers so they have more water to fucking run through the fucking cloud. Oh, like cool it down and shit.
SPEAKER_03:Yeah, but once the water runs through, it becomes toxic. So it's not something yeah, it's not something they can put back onto the grid. That's great. Yeah. Histotoxic water. Yeah, sucking in all this water, turning it completely toxic. You do you remember the um what was it? Um the Neo um Matrix movies. And you remember when he was on top and like he actually woke up out of the battery and you looked around and everything was just completely fucking fried.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, it's a desolate area. Yeah, that's not because machines don't eat, it's because the toxicity of making greens dealing with this fucking AI-powered bullshit is gonna destroy the planet.
SPEAKER_03:That's the toxic air from just keeping these things running.
SPEAKER_01:But you know what, man? Cal farts. Cal farts are bad.
SPEAKER_03:No, no, dude, if you put them in a-find a way to harness the cow fart. Yeah, you put them in a brown plastic or a brown paper bag.
SPEAKER_01:Yeah, yeah. Yeah. So fucking dumb, man. Yeah, it's crazy. These dairy farmers literally burn the methane, like it's not even like released to the atmosphere. You know what's crazy?
SPEAKER_02:Have you ever seen that where they they they poke a hole in the cow and they fucking hit it with the flame?
SPEAKER_03:Do you know why they need a port? What the fuck? Because they blew up. Well, do you know why they need to put a porthole in? Uh explode? No, because they're feeding them primarily corn diet.
unknown:Yeah.
SPEAKER_03:And they don't digest them well. So they actually have to cut a porthole into their first stomach so they can see if they're digesting the product well.
SPEAKER_02:Oh, I thought it was just to release the gases because they took a light out of that shit and it was like, wow, that's pretty crazy.
SPEAKER_03:And that comes from that comes from the corn. That comes from the maze. Yeah. Yep. It's a bad diet. And as you keep it.
SPEAKER_01:But if you ever see like a dairy farm, they actually have like the fucking ventilation systems that take it and burn, they burn the methane off into generators, and that's what they use to power their fucking farm.
SPEAKER_03:It just, oh man.
SPEAKER_01:Because the first fucking cowboy to light a match inside a dairy farm realized real quick there's something fucking on fire in here. Yeah? Something ain't right around this place, boss. Blew his whole fucking place up. We need to figure this out. And we're burning it.
SPEAKER_03:I lost my mustache, boss. Well, ladies and gentlemen, thanks as always for coming and hanging out with us. We appreciate you as always. Please like and subscribe.
