He is an author of journalists in three time new york times best seller, three of them that's a year baby at had trick, I suppose, chaser honour what is up my beloved john love. It thank you for,

making the time to talk to us. I wanted to talk to you first and foremost, because look I'm a huge fan of your tweets are right. He dined early lakes lie but you've, you've tweeted, through this historic storm and the power outage and water problems that are Well, how? How has it been for you to be on the ground through this and how family through this period of disaster about the texas I storm, whether to our as others have said, I am going to make sure we can identify. The golden gloves have talked about the novelty emily in paris and am snub of I may destroy. I just I just want to make sure that we were both targeted by the same terrible thing storm. Was nuts dude like they told us it might snow a little bit. Am I get, whatever, and then I went to sleep. And laramie woke me up the next morning and she's. It snowed for real for real

I looked out the window and there was like actual inches of snow and our back. I've never seen anything like that. It was cute fur like ten hours and after that stuff started going real bad. It wouldn't hurt For us we lost water for a couple of days, but then we knew I had a time is gonna happen. So we did. They, like you, know, fill up the bathtubs use one or two flesh, the toilets boils snow if you need like dishwater whatever, but loose power and none of our pipes burst, which was great but like some of my homies my buddy who believes downtown had a pipe burst in his house, earn his apartment and just like did everything lead, his family there in Houston they lost power and water for like four or five days there, just it was awful. We we we, we just not built for that, and that's like a philosophical statement, but also as a practical state like the houses are not built to wits natural was. It was

over there that first day and then after that, Jose I this could get pretty bad pretty quickly. So obviously, part of this is that it was something texas is in built for in ways that makes sense. It also is a manufacturer crisis in terms of yes, what's happened with tee and great the way republicans have managed the state? this moments as even as the disaster was unfolding that there was this quick propaganda campaign that popped up to blame. Basically, I see in the green new deal with how Shhh responsibility do think people and taxes are putting onto their leaders like how much of this do, you think, will follow abbot, follow texas republicans as this as you kind of deal with the aftermath, I think it's going to follow them. Only the amount that the terrible things I've done so far have been following them like that People who know are the people who know, and maybe we get might like you're like a few more people enter. Stand hated, this happened because of these people in china.

Right here. It's like a very hard thing to spread around like I only know about it because, whatever I listen to two shows like yours or on the internet, will they have a thing, and I read those cause, I'm on the internet all day long but like my parents had no idea like to talk to them about this or like other people in my family. This is not a common knowledge thing. I, who knows about the fucking electrical grid of any state, it's like I didn't. I didn't know until this happened. You know what I'm saying yeah so one of the most important parts of our lives, and we don't talk about it. We don't pay attention to how any of it works and one shocking thing for a lot of people who either only lost power for a short time or didn't lose it at all, is suddenly they were getting these wild electricity the air so solar we're waiting to see. What's gonna happen there, they disable in san Antonio or the one that were under anyway. They disable the auto pay. So there You know, you're gonna get the bill first and then there like working a way through it. I guess

I assume on their side they trying to figure out. Is it worth the money that will make to bells because can you do? How can you fight that? You know I'm saying yeah, they just shut the power off and there's no way to win. Remind me a lot of what happens with these surprise medical bills. We're hungry ass is hopefully I mean we ve got these producers chairman in one house committee, whose seems very interested in protecting the insurance companies in a state, but you're in a car wreck or urine, you have a heart attack your unconscious. Your brought an ambulance to a hospital. You get treated there, not in your network. Yeah. If you add any choice in the matter, you need in the middle of a historic storm and ear You need electricity to live and suddenly you get these while bills. Yeah and that's not even an exaggeration, like people froze to death with? Does it breaking sorry that eleven year old kid who froze to death in the trade like what

I do, and why is this? I think the medical thing happened to me and laramie when she had the when she had the twins and we got the bill and it was like twelve. Thirteen thousand dollars that we were spoke responsible for I was a teacher the time I'm making making eleven hundred dollars every two weeks that we can even afford, like a normal bills the ban? And we would say well, there's a thing: that's never gonna get paid. I guess we just china. Its second go to the hospital and enough. Yet what are we doing? What we do and what are we doing here one one last question on us: did you think it possible to hate tag? Crews? Even more do? Did you know? I recognise that it was possible. I did not either. I thought that I had dug to the bottom of that whole and it turns out there was sixty more feed of hate and they're, just every single bad thing. You could do or say here done in the last two weeks, you thank you

each the bottom. But actually that's that's just a piece iraq. We can blow that up. There's more take crews to hate underneath. Have you ever seen a movie called cube? I haven't. I haven't it's a horror movie, these people wake up, and these in this room and whatever Thus the quick summary is this group of people and then and there in a room and trying to like escape wall of the room has a door and some. The doors you go through lead to your death and other ones led like to us if, whatever their basically inside of a giant rubik's, cube, that's moving around and go for like two hours, trying to figure out how to get to the beginning of the end of it, at the end of the movie. They realize their right back where they started. Like that's the that's hate for ted crews, my heart. I think I'm at the end of it and it turns out we're just gonna start a baby.

Of the doors lead to cancun. Yeah huh. Did you see? Did you see him today? Making jokes like orlando is great, but not as good as can't get what what what whites are. Now look we're ready to joke about it. I don't know that we are ted know. I don't know what time you're getting the room. I don't know that you're reading the room and then he's like doing mask material that yeah mike mask. It's appealing unappealing them so obviously is very serious, there's something much less serious. I did want to ask you about, because it's been baffling to me please Apparently, people are spending a lot of their hard earned money on gifts, gifts. If you topshop option baby. What the what types of so, so you bet I a picture

big picture of like a basketball player dunking or something of that nature, mind, and it has a bed. It has like it's a crypto currency of some form, correct there's going on correct. These are highlight this basket: violent, listen, want to preface this, I'm probably spain, a lot of this stuff wrong, but I'll get the general sentiment right? Ok, it is. These are basketball. Highlights that live on blockchain. So there serialized they've got they've got number there's only a certain amount of them and it is in a sense digital version of collecting basketball cards? That's what that's, what it is, and it's lot of fun to participate in, like I just did it today. I just got an I got in a digital line today they really they release like new packs every so often you have today like the button. As soon as they release a pact, you get an align john two hundred thousand people in law digital line till I try to get one of the pact's that they put up for sale for a hundred dollars each

particular back was a hundred dollars because they got you know you get a chance to win a rare whatever whatever, but If you get one the pact's you click the button you get. Some cars that are in their digital cards highlight and, like you, click the thing it shows you whether highlighted and then it just like you stored on you're on your phone or your crypto wallet whatever, but it find a participated so that you can share it. You can like senator the group tax. You can share your own, I'm on a group text. One of the guys on our group text was ever. Get in early t one a one of the packs and then he's like sending videos and we're all celebrating and being excited about it, and then it's like the luck of which ones are in your pack, how cool they are exactly as I got a b and then you have a really good card exactly if you get a really good one they're worth you, you know, medically tens of thousands of dollars, one hundred thousand dollars for a zion. It's highlight or whatever it's fun like it's a silly thing. Obviously it's the thing and obviously very quickly been it until I get an asset, a

center whatever, but wasn't like for those listening for those listening If anyone in your life is up up up, I'm advice is to treat a animated photo as in another guy now you're gonna talk about my aren't. I'm telling you there's a better: do you gyre never lacked any like cards or anything I've? No, I don't have the discipline to collect anything. There, ve been collectors around me. I've seen beanie baby collectors. My father collected baseball cards when I was a kid, was a huge surge of baseball cards and I remember had lots of them lots, you know you would buy, you could buy like it would be like a cardboard box unmarked ahead, like the full slate of maria from that company, lots of those Then I remember, for whatever reason my father thought the baseball player Jim Abbott, Who was, he was one he thought he was

coolest didn't. I was amazing right over one handed and it isn't me, there was incredible to watch man pit. She would he wood pigeon. Throw the glove in the air and he was like a very it was. It was awesome. For whatever reason I believe he decided to buy, I want to say I dont know exaggerate. It is certainly hundreds of Jim abbot. Spock aren't as like an investment, but I love you. May I love you two thousands, however, there was a there were sea would walk. There was a boiler in the basement and you go through the boiler room, and then there was a little closet and in that room there were three things. There were not a suitcases for trips if large, near winter coats and they were made, our hearts and Jim abbot? genetic out, and I wonder what happened. I wonder what happened to those Jim abbot baseball cards. I may ask to find out? Did you

If anything, you should absolutely yeah. I do collect the basketball cards. I've. I've done it. I did it when I was a kid and then I got older and there's like a different version of them now where they are they're graded. Basically like somebody who looks at it to see how good it is and then give it a score, and then those are the ones that sell for a lot of money but I bought some basketball card has been a big boom the last year and a half or so I some before the pandemic started. My buddy Josh labour was, I tell me, hey by some these get these get these. What So like I bought a luka doncic rookie card at the time, It was a couple hundred dollars and then the play ass I like looked it up is nine thousand dollars.

You watch what everyone asks me and that is because things? Don't work? Give me one. Second, I apologize I'm not going anywhere. Finally, we would say you so much for being here. I want to start with It has been on my mind. Why are you doing this show? Why are you talking to me? Someone told me to show my ted

this guy's really good, because I figure there was three possibilities. Either someone told me I was ok, you think, I'm John loves from Saturday night live or you're just saying yes to everything. Well, now I know you're, not you another church, I am I I do not say yes to everything someone told me you're, really good budapest, I actually cannot recall, but Could I didn't not tell you how much I appreciate that I ask you because you I will you talk to carry switching from the times and you you. You talked about toni, morrison and, and you said something that I thought was- was quite sad that in in the final days of her life, she was glued to MSNBC. Because of our collective obsession, the news over the last four years. Can you just a little bit about your new consumption your habits. What's your mind, is the the right level of crisis consumption, given everything that's going on in the world,

My wish that with tony had been just four days to provide it was like most of the trump administration that she was alive for to me, that was horrible, because his so stressful eye, definitely reduced my use consumption because trump, not the president. You know I have lived through an I'm with people now called her, but what I would call old and I'm telling you there been Here's in my life, why paid very little attention politics, because I'm not wholly, a political junkie and show their peers instead are more pacific, where I don't have to keep monitoring the news. Of course, we don't have to monitor the news, because we think if we keep watching it will change in some way, but it does it shows. You know it's like if you keep asking the flight attendant. When are we leaving you're not in charge? He doesn't but I think that I have been able to consume less news because trumpets, not the president,

No, I know there's a lot of horrible things going on. There always are these take on suppression, and that, with this to me, a tremendous relief You know what I'm really worried about is the media. You know who invented trump and who keep mentioning him, bringing him up. I think because it right, because now we have a whole generation. People, not me, maybe more than one we should now like four months recent partridge easy endlessly exciting. Kind of silently emotional, and that is not a good thing I've. He'll conflicted about this. It be nice of power. We're boring again and I think we're seeing I believe that it is through some on media withdrawal. They don't have this big, dramatic, chaotic storm to cover every day, but at the same time there was good in it? If you agree that there are some good, then, all of a sudden everybody was paying attention. We had more people, volunteering more people, caring about the role could play in politics. Do you agree with that now

I am sorry to say I don't mind. I agree that that is true, but it is True, because, all of a sudden, we had a million more altruism people, it's because people being attacked the country is being attacked by the president every single a group of people that were not from supporters were conscious being attacked, undermined and should be more trying to defend the things that they, about, or things said in fact centrally import into the country so would be better if the I do not feel like the president was attacking this. Isn t show you oh yes, it's good that they will be involved in politics is especially good bad. You know, people understand the politics which some of it is just boring. Some of it used to be called It is true that you know people seem to have no idea at all. What actions in the constitution these people mainly seem to be republican senators You know I think it's very good when people act as opposed to just react It was incredibly reactive era.

One thing I've been thinking about. This was from a review of your book. In nineteen eighty one. This is from a review of social studies and it says, among Things ran, liebowitz doesn't like dogs, children, the rich, the poor, los angeles nature, algebra sports, castors freedom of thought, the early nineteenth century nonfiction novels airlines Esperanto. Just by the way heard esperanto in awhile and brunch. She obviously has gone too far at first of all, amazing. It's amazing that you've four hating things for forty years I think sometimes you get tagged as a misanthrope. But you're more of a curmudgeon Do you agree with that distinction and and do you agree that you're that you're a curmudgeon not a misanthrope? Well, I agree, I'm not a trope, I was instantly called or commissioned and when my first book came out, I was twenty seven. Okay, I did that's fairly young. Right away people reading. What we have here is a young curmudgeon.

Very startling thing because I guess conventions are supposed to be old, but of course, this sort of thing you grow into. I we don't think of myself. Motion I'm accused of his being negative, ok, show you know. I've never found myself as being negative. I think of myself ass being a realist during cooperative We have had many protests in every time. They called to tell me my results. They say no failure negative, and I always say I know that I know that my entire life people to be saying friend, you're, so negative. Some of these things when you read me, which luckily I dont remember it was used for nineteen eighty one and then I trow by the way you know I do not do so children, in fact I've written how I like children, but it doesn't fit into people's idea of what a curmudgeon is. Esperanto is something that comes up infrequently minded ah well I think it's a vicious circle right, because you become known for hating things, and so everybody loves to ask you what you hate. What is something you just

recently you can define recently on any time scale. You'd, like that, you love, new passion summit, interested in you dumped me. Um well see that's the problem friend. First of all, I don't mean to criticize you and who advertise to me is a very lovely man, but the word passion is really overused I bid. Everyone is passion about a passion people describing since your passion project people are loud now, capture, shepherd careers, it'll, very plainly, I do this for money and then, on the other hand- and I do this for art. Well, I have good news for you, you're one person or you're the other, so you're someone who does things from money nothing along with that, but on the other hand, nothing like with it. So I don't know have any new passion, and if I do, I really none of them were spring to mind. How does one I doubt that that was an effort to see if we could find something positive and you attacked the question.

Concept of passion I dont think of this tax? I'm just answer your questions automatic agnes! I know so someone said this to me about a famous musician. Who is wrapped in a kind of permanent adolescents in his behaviour that you stop maturing when you get fired, that, however old you are when you come a celebrity. That's it you're, baked dealing it's been true of the celebrities youve dealt with in your life, it depends what you become famous when you say musician and if you're talking about a popular musician it all. That would definitely be true, because popular music is young, if the people making it our old, you know is young nature, young

You know what you see now that we have. You know people who were rock stars, you know for fifty or sixty years and some of them keep trying to act like they're. You know twenty. When the facts are seventy or that is not attractive. I agree because popular music is largely about sex. You know, I don't care what people say it's about, but it's largely about checks, and so it oh, that's u from that's what people should do when their young and I think, Probably is true it in professions where people's looks are paramount. That's definitely true, because you're supposed to keep looking the same as you look when you were twenty two, this is not possible. We can all see that you know. I think this would be less true.

Other kinds of artists. I hope you're not talking about people who are celebrities in this way. That has nothing to do with anything except a lot of people know who they are. I think that's true I I mean, but it's also true of people who are not celebrities, people I think, get arrested at their moment of greatest success. This is why you have fifty year old men wearing high school baseball, jackets or high school football sweaters. You know that was the zenith. I grew up in a small town tell you that you know when I was in high school, then I sort of us old men, meaning like my parents age, would that point would have been. Maybe forty you know coming out to put gas in your car which they used to do. You know wearing a high school football jacket and guys our age would she'll talk to them. I remember that game. You know dishes you know to me. It's basically shed was not a problem for me because I was on deeply unpopular and success, one high school, which is giving me nowhere to go but up the avenue.

I am obviously have no idea what icicles like now accept. Apparently there are closed, but high school when I was in high school. Lots of ways I can see that still somewhat true for boys. It has to do with athletics. This was, absurdity, hunger or when I was young now girls have to also participate in sports, which to me does not really might damage progress. I know they want to do it, they should do it, but I am very glad that was not the case for myself You know you are someone who has been well known now for decades and you know I read that review from nigeria one I think you could write their there could be a similar review really today about you as a as a voice another you have an adapted and changed, but that you kind of to brand in your sticking to it. A question that only someone younger would ask because not gonna, believe this, because this doesn't seem believable to anyone. You know this is actually just who I am very few people become other people. Despite this constant idea that you, you know you, you keep changing like from a cat,

I worked on butterfly and then to an angel or whatever people think now, but basically this is I've been actually who I am tire light as or most people I would like to point out. This is not a brand did not oppose. This was plan. This is just I am. I realise that it angers many people. I have to tell you. It's surprises me, the amount of time people will put into criticising people. They do not. I mean I'm much about the internet, which I'm not on the agenda is one of the wonderful reasons and not on it. But since the publishing it I wish I was twenty one years old fortunately magazine at that point. The number breeders will, I would should be positive- was like two thousand tops right away. I struggled now I get a slip. It is you're gonna happen and my surprise that people don't wake me. I'm sure that, let me assure you just pointed out there's numerous things I don't like there's numerous books, I dont like there's movies,

like the music. I don't like the idea tat. I would waste my time writing to those people telling them how much I don't like it beneath that seems shirt. So my father won't eat sushi do it. He thinks raw fishes now food, it bade, and I say, but look look look at how many people love it every day. All over the world people eat raw fish. No one gets sick, not only that it's healthy to fish, and he says it just doesn't appeal to me. I am sorry that I'm gonna be the only the latest person to ask you about the internet. But- Is there a possibility that internet is your version of sushi. Now, there's nothing about it whatsoever and I dunno how you even came up with that, but I keep explaining to people and no one seems to leave me because otherwise they would just believe me when they first invented. Computers that you have in your own house.

Were that computers were like the size of the pentagon. They were called word. Processors and a friend of mine who screenwriter got one and she thought was. Come and look at this thing is fantastic, so I went and looked at it, and I said this is just a very fast kind of typewriter and that's all it was. I don't know how to type. I don't have The typewriter I dont, like machine is something new machines. I don't like it. I didn't old machines. So you know I don't need this cassandra her tight and I am also you know, such a slow writer. I could write a my own blood without hurting myself, so I do not need this. Of course, I did not know the entire world would go in these machines. How would I know that show if you're asking me, if I had known that, would I have dissipated in this I could say, may but I still don't know how to type if it wishes.

You do on those funds, and it is true, so I know you'd. I understand that that that it got out of hand. You know you thought it was a fast typewriter and all of a sudden, the whole world's on the thing. But here's the thing you're famous, were being productive. Your actually famous for having writers block what would be the harm in taking one month and saying for the next month, I'm gonna learn to use a computer and, if I don't like it after a month, I'll give it You are passing stranger and say here have the internet. What first of all on very flattered that you would think it would take me only one month to learn how to do this: the cash I am ashamed. Car should thank you. Nine and maybe five years ago, I learned had opened the hood show rather than getting arrested at the moment of fame, I got arrested last thing I can really think about. I learned how to do with dr show. You know, and these new cars like,

which are basically computers they can stump make. So I dont think that I want to do in the month. I dont really think about it. I concern other people go that I don't have it in anger, other people, because they think it's something against them is not a stance, its preference. Ok, I just get ready that, but it's not a preference, though, because it will be a preference. I tried it and gave it up what are you I dont know about these people talk about her time. I'm aware of it with courses the things people talk about it. Somebody talks about a musical, they ve seen you can say it's your preference, not you have seen it. It's you You are aware that you know the pros and cons, but like people could scribe swimming to you, but until you go swimming you can't say whether or not you like it now, but I could

without seeing any musical, don't like it. So you could describe it to me. You cannot describe it to me. I already don't like it. You didn't see hamilton, I guess, except for I was going to say, except for hamilton you liked hamilton, I loved hamilton, okay, but the re. I believe the reason that Hamilton you know, wired the positions it has is because how, unlike a mutual it is, I don't mean just not musical, but I mean it's really, unlike any musical I've ever seen. I went the night before it opened on. Broadway show was the last night of previews and someone. Actually you know after what I think- and I should I was just shocked- that it wasn't annoying or added it's fantastic. It's really fantastic, but you know. Are you going to compare every music visuals to hamilton? if not, I guess not be, but I would ask you, as a youth, you ve dodge my question, which is you're out of your questions. If I get a spend most of my life trying to learn how to work a machine that I've never went to work, my answer is no

but I dont know why I dont know why it matters so much to other people what I do I don't know why matters either. I don't why I care. I don't give a shit what you do, It upsets people that are friends of mine who, because they, I can't reach you. You know you're, not home. I can't reach you and I think so what felt at all during this pandemic. That I me look. I think this pandemic is a little is a little bit like. You know that episode of twilight zone where Although the guy had just wants time to be with his book stated that it was his break, yet some tragic thing I've ever seen, pandemic at all, like that that you finally have all this time, but it not the way you would have wanted to go. Of course you know waste. I wouldn't be grateful. The deuce lie in the shop and read it out. I didn't mean and show that for A thousand people die make sure the whole country broke it. Oh no, it was not a good tradeoff. I have to agree. It's interesting though I think some of the reason I think one reason people want to.

Argue with you about the internet is because they want to argue in defence of how much time they ve spent on it. They want to a case for themselves that the internet is not a whole bad thing: it there are good parts that go along with the twitter meanness and influencers and celebrity culture. I think that's part of it. That's part of it. It made but I really think centrally. Here's what it is. Everybody now thinks every single thing is some sort of ideological it out. So everything has to be argued for or against when some things are really just preferences. I was speaking at a high school, which I do like once every two years and hid in the audience, asked me if I like science fiction- and I should know not really this kid went crazy. He was furious at me. He was like it. He was giving me the reasons why, how we did it and I firmly he said to him. I said I don't really like science fiction, though she disapproval,

I'm guessing you shouldn't licence vision saying I'm gonna make a law against serbia. Science fiction is like asking someone you don't wish. You prefer Chocolate vanilla it. It doesn't matter, you know, but every thing is posed as it is a matter of life and death as if it's a matter of politics, you know. Sometimes you just nothin whether or not I use the internet should not be important. Other people, I dont, think people internet, which is everyone, wrong. Looked most people in this country, russia, superbowl, I dont, want you superbowl in writing. Fr shouldn't be a suitable balls. You shouldn't watches before it just means. I don't want you. I am interested in this in an intellectual away because here's my reason for being interested, which is their summing up so appealing about the way you know yourself and our I it in defending your opinions, your view of the world, but there is a part

mobility ability that you're wrong in the sense that why learning to use the internet would be frustrating while getting no a computer and becoming part of this world to be frustrating that, on the other side of that there'd be a man, What were you realize that you liked it that you realise that. Actually, you know what I like having this access to people I like being connected in this way, and I have been resisting it based on assumptions that turned out to not be true. That is totally possible, but the chances they will find that out are not great. But before we get to we're going to do a rapid fire question, but before we get to that Progress by friendly was amazon says that the kindle addition will be published on September six, twenty twenty two high and how you feel about that deadline. First of all, I don't know that on the internet,

Oh it's totally, not true that that book was due. At least I don't remember anymore fifteen years ago, so I dunno, who I don't know, who puts up stuff about me on the internet, but it is not me that is not my publisher who I sure he was not wasting time sitting there waiting for the manuscript to come in and show you know I at the edge of this, because I know who puts your stuff up, but it's not true. I can tell you that I will say that when I saw that your next book was called progress, I did laugh. I do think that that is a very funny name for a book that has been stuck for as long as it has been stuck. Yes, well. What about me friend. Thank you so much more time before we let you go on this, show, love it or leave it. We have a segment called the rant wheel, think you'd hate it, but there is a wheel and we spin it and wherever it lands. We rant about the topic because of you are our special guests. We are introducing a new segment called the front wheel. I have a list of topics here.

And I'm gonna, give you the topic and you can just rant about it say what comes to your mind. This weak on the wheel, we have superhero movies, wellness bill de blasio, star wars, veganism, podcast, ted cruz and starbucks, I'm going to throw them out here we go superhero movies, I've never seen one. Never seen one. I don't know I mean I only I would say is only a few years ago that in frustration with a bunch of people. I said something about batman flying Everyone looked amazed and apparently batman doesn't flies. I never knew that none of them Doesn't phases wits he's a detective it with great wealth? I believe you, but I didn't know that powered by rage. At wellness. Wellness strikes me as a kind of greed for extra help. You know what people use it when people eat me, you said someone how they were. They said, I'm ok event, you're, not sick, if you're not really need your not injured, you know, but basically, what is wellness just like extra help. I'm

sick, but I could be more, not sick. You know I'm in if the condition, but I could be a more perfect condition. Let me put it this way. I don't think wellness is a topic say it in the syrian refugee camp right right bill de blasio. I have to say that bill de Blasio is the great uniter of this political era, because in new york city, everyone hates de Blasio, everyone, people hidden poor people, hidden black people, hate away people hate him. Democrats and republicans hate him. He has shown incompetent- that he is united. The city against him you know I I may I interviewed him. And I asked him if he thought there might be something when we see that because I think something quintessential about build a blog, you hate is how he, six it out that being red sox fan. Who'd goes in our two a why far from his home to exercise. I asked him thought there. There was something psychologically wrong with him that made him want to be hated, and The answer was unsatisfying. Well, you know what I like

in the beginning, you know the first time ever from. I was very happy to vote for him. You know I thought of last year as a mayor paying attention to ninety percent of the city as opposed to bloomberg and pay attention to like half of one percent of the city, and he did this gracing this universal pre k. I thought he was terrific, so he should have gone after. Like the first six months says it went downhill from there. What think the star wars? I saw the first star wars by accident truthfully because, whenever it came out in the seventies and came out, I used to just go to every movie show I went to star wars. I had no idea what it was about about ten minutes into it. I said to my friend it's just a science fiction movie. She said it's called star wars. I dunno I thought. Maybe it was a fight between two movie stars. I dunno what I thought it was. We went to every movie, I was movie crazy, and so I did see the whole movie, but I remembered and that's a west africa star wars which, as you know, is now like twenty science fiction movies. It's an industry

industry weighting of egotism. You don't really care what, the people eat. I have to tell you you don't care. I dont think it said. I don't think it's good. I don't think you're depends how extreme people are because some it becomes very annoying. You know I, as long as people don't talk to me about what they're eating. I don't really care. You know, I'm sure it's nicer, it's certainly sure. You know if you're a cow, that someone should be getting a hum, but I just don't airbus podcast, you know I've, never one I've been on them. I know that are to me. I could be wrong, but they seem like they're radio shows on the internet. That's what they are. No you're not wrong, does radio show that the internet is the radio, but you download it and set about turning on the child. So I can get him ted crews hit. Greece is an era where you could hardly decide who is the worst for public health.

In the last few days he's risen to the top, although there there's so many horrible that the competition for who is the most disgraceful person in american politics, you know his show. Intense said, I'm sure it a few days away from other horrible diet that at the end of it I d. At the end of this. That I was actually almost appreciative. At a time where we can't go to restaurants, we can't go to the movies that ted whose gave us so much entertainment of doing something so profoundly stupid. I sent you skip it. I mean, I don't know it's very much about TED cruz's. You know personal finances, but he's been in office a long time. Where do these centers get money to live like this Well, I think his wife works a golden. You know how I didn't know that show how right so that there is my answer because this way of life is the way of life of which people you know go to cancun shapes he was caught for the weekend, bring your kids. I mean during this whole texas thing you know, which is

In this regard, I was remembering that in the seventies there was, tremendous oil shortage in this country and in texas, people drive around bumper sticker says sittings like new york phrase in the dark shadows from. I remember that today,. And yesterday and what did you starbucks? You know what a cup of coffee is too costly dna fish abrogated like fifty help. Does it amazing thing that you d like to show you people around the world to decide that a good price for a cup of coffee, five dollars, happen. I dont want to brag, but I very rarely if ever to anybody, but my call very skills I happen to me. He dashed coffee in the entire world. Show my coffee shops with it. That's the idea. I would think that coffee is over, now. I know that one of the challenges during this time has been cooking at home. What have you made for yourself to eat today of cultural?

I'll make it I'm not thrilling but adequate dinner. I hate to show The less great thing you know about them have reiser. What am I had. I don't remember work is that the open, the box, it's done Do you have to worry about your friend? We need to send somebody. Do we need to send somebody to check on you and you mean food, wise to say that your several people have the four include Daniel balloon who said that makes it in the saying He is very worried about me. He ready, I said something about him or he read something I said about him and he would like to send me over some food how many people do I limit, I said, tell him twelve, I have to tell you I saw that interview. I saw that interview and I thought that is the smartest thing I have ever seen in my life casually mentioning a specific chef by name and how much you miss their food
