Can I Finish? | Episode 287

All right, you guys, podcast time.

We got the equipment and the perfect business plan.

Give our show away for free and tell no one how to find it.

Ready?

I'm gonna start a podcast that has no focus and it'll take up an inordinate amount of time.

First up, she's the queen of sarcasm, the empress of eyerolls.

This Jersey gal's infectious giggle will always make you smile.

The glamorous agitator with style and sass and her sidekick.

He is an old man with the energy, focus and reading ability of a first grader on a sugar rush.

Together they will dissect world issues, slice through the social justice shenanigans, and make you laugh while the world burns.

Here are your hosts, the Duchess and Jamingo.

Hey, Everybody.

Thursday night, 6:30, 30.

Boy, a lot of shit's going on.

We got a jam packed show for you, Duchess.

Little grumpy pre show.

I'm not.

Why would you say that?

I was getting some attitude, get a little bit of a tude.

It does mean I'm grumpy.

Oh, it's just my jersey.

Oh, it's just your jersey, Toot.

That's right.

All right, all right.

Want to start off by saying next week I have.

Well, this week I had my cherry popped.

Speaking of Red in there, my shitty song of the week.

We went over there, we had a lot of fun with Red.

Straightened some shit out.

Maybe I overreacted some.

I don't know.

John Domingo overreacts.

Well, you know when you go to a guy's Twitter, when you go to a guy's Twitter and you've been blocked, kind of makes you feel a certain way.

That's all I'm saying.

That's all I'm saying.

Think to ask.

Nah.

When someone blocks you.

Okay, why would you ask?

But listen, it's all straight down.

Red and I are following each other.

And you know something?

I'm going to say something about Red.

We had like a really good time.

We.

We're talking about technology.

And then we did our.

Our, you know, we did our shitty song of the week and then they have Patreon.

And you guys want to see something fun, Go to their patreon, go to their website.

Links will be in the show notes.

Go to their website and go to their Patreon.

And we did a show.

We did a game show afterwards.

I was singing.

Yep.

How's that?

Not worth $5.

I don't know.

Well, Red was fabulous and we had a great time.

Yes.

And it was nice to see Jody Too.

And Jody was there, too.

And Jody.

Jody was there, too, but.

Well, I'm glad you two.

You have moved on and we had a great show.

Yeah, let's.

Shitty song of the week, karaoke.

Listen, I'm not saying anything.

Never had a problem with Red.

Like, Red.

Just wasn't sure what was going on.

Figured it out.

Now we're moving on.

It's fine.

But.

But saw an article today that you shared where New Jersey is the 46th unfriendly state.

And I'm like, what the fuck?

I don't know how that is.

I mean, gosh, I thought we'd be like 48 or 49.

I'm a little upset.

Where.

That's terrible.

You know something?

You say that because you always want to be liked.

All right?

I am liked.

I don't need to be like.

But I am.

I can't be controversial.

Oh, don't say that.

No.

Love Me, Love Me.

What's that song?

Love Me, Love Me.

Say whatever.

Now I'm all stuck singing.

Keep singing.

I'm all stuck on I don't know lyrics.

I know tunes, I don't know lyrics.

All right, all right.

So thank you.

So anyhow, I was always that way.

I'd rather be feared, see.

Okay, well, I like that.

It's a dynamic duo.

They can love me, they can hate you.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Fear you.

Please help me.

Please.

I don't have to try me.

I'm friendly, damn it.

I know.

So anyhow, here we are.

We're the 46th state in New Jersey.

The Jersey attitude can be perceived as just outright rudeness.

And in this survey, survey, survey, survey.

In this survey, seems as though that's definitely the case.

New Jerseyans are known for their in your face personalities.

But hey, hey, at least probably unfriendly station attendant.

We'll pump your gas for you.

Got that?

Damn right, Bob.

All right, so I see.

I'm going to go to the chat.

Who.

What three states are more unfriendly than New Jersey?

If you could.

If you could tell.

But yes.

46, 47, 48.

What four states.

Fuck what four states?

Hard you don't get.

Southern Hospital.

Yeah, we have Cracker Barrel.

I mean, that's as close as we get to Southern hospitality.

I'm telling you, when you go somewhere else where everybody's so nice, you feel like they're trying to get over on you.

Yeah, it's Butter's answers.

New Jersey, New Jersey, New Jersey, come on.

And New Jersey, Come on.

All right.

Dean says New York Okay, New York's good guess.

Anybody else?

Let's see.

He says Maine.

Maine.

Okay.

All right.

Anybody else?

Red says South Carolina.

North Carolina as the rudest.

Okay.

Yeah, Ahead.

Ahead of Jersey and rudeness.

Okay.

Matter of fact, I found South Carolina and North Carolina very friendly states.

Matter of fact, one of the much.

Now they're full of Jersey people.

One of the states really surprised me because I thought it would be a friendly state because it is a southern state.

Maryland now.

Yeah.

Maryland.

It's not.

All right, so here we go.

Let's go back.

Lisa says California.

California.

Surprisingly now.

All right, let's go to 47.

47 is Massachusetts.

Now, Mass holes.

Mass holes.

I get it.

Massachusetts locals aren't exactly rude per se.

But the overall indifference towards strangers can take its toll.

Ignoring people isn't exactly a trait that puts all Massachusetts among the friendliest states in the America.

It also takes a long time to be accepted as a true Bostonian, not just to blow it.

Now, let me just tell you something.

Boston's people, boss.

Boston people are assholes.

And they are real assholes.

I mean, you know, so I would almost say that 47 is too low for them.

I think they should be lower or higher.

Whatever.

They're.

They're more of an ass.

They're ruder.

So they're.

They're ahead of us in root.

Correct.

All right.

Josh says.

I would have said mass holes, but he lives too close to those rubbish people.

Correct.

Rubbish.

Love it.

Yeah.

Well, listen, I live in state.

48.

Six, whatever.

All right, let's go.

Here we go.

The next one.

48 Delaware.

I was shocked because, to be honest with you, I've worked in Delaware and, well, you know what?

Northern Delaware.

Drive through state.

Really?

What do you call, like, the southern half of Delaware?

Lower, slower.

Delaware.

And they're your basic redneck mountain people.

Kind of like West Virginia.

Sorry, Red, that's mean.

Delaware might be small.

Red were friends.

Stop it, Red nose.

I'm kidding.

You can drive across the entire state in just 90 minutes.

But that doesn't exactly translate to neighborly.

It is Delaware.

Possibly misjudged reputation as a boring.

What makes our readers think it's unfriendly?

Unfortunately, it's ranked as one of the least friendly states in America.

Six degrees of Joe Biden.

Well, that's true too.

All right, 49.

This one really threw me.

Arkansas, the home of Jody B.

Jody, explain your state.

Arkansas is friendly.

If.

An emphasis on if.

If you're a local.

Mm.

I thought that said white, but it says While.

While that's all well and good for Arkansas residents and their good neighborly vibes, it could mean the visitors might feel like they don't quite fit in and are unwelcome.

I'm pretty sure nobody fits in down there that doesn't belong.

You know, down south.

They have that thing, you know, there's a Yankee and a damn Yank.

You know the difference between a Yankee and a damn Yankee?

No Yankee is from up north.

A damn Yankee is one that came down south and started living there.

That's a damn Yankee.

They don't like Yankees.

And then the 50th is New York.

Of course, that's no shock whatsoever, really.

I think it's from New York City.

Locals might seem a bit gruff at first, even upstate, but it is the melting pot of many cultures.

And the neighborhoods in each bore, bureau, borough, burrow, burrow of New York City have a community feel if you manage to stick to it and stick it out long enough.

But don't dwaddle on the side.

That sounds doodle.

It says d.

A.

Dotle dole, no dole doodle.

Don't doodle.

Don't hang out.

Don't, don't wait.

Don't wander around.

Stay out of the way.

Stop.

Move.

Get out of the way.

Stop dawdling on the sidewalk.

I'm walking here.

I'm walking here.

Or holding up traffic.

Take it.

Oh, doing stuff for the gram.

And they see you holding up.

Oh, they do in New York all the time.

Okay, so Sparky said, why is the list backwards?

So basically what it is, is number one was the friendliest.

Friendliest.

And did you want to.

No, I don't care.

Oh, nobody cares about them.

I don't care.

I don't give a who's.

I don't give a who.

The friendliest.

The link.

The link to this article, I believe, is on my Twitter feed.

So if you follow, I think Duchess nj, you can follow me.

And I would.

I would say that I'll put this in the show notes, but I'll probably forget.

But he won't.

I forget, you know?

So I guess the 50th is the least friendliest.

Friendliest state.

So that was definitely New York.

Yes.

I can't remember what number one is.

So it's one of those southern friendly states.

I got you.

People are nice down there.

Stop being nice.

It throws us northerners off.

Yeah, we can't deal with that.

Yeah, it's too weird.

We really don't like it.

All right, we gotta pour one out.

We Lost somebody today.

I'm ready.

I was.

I was a big fan, to be honest with you.

We lost two somebody's today.

Well, I don't know about the second one, but the first one I thought was amazing.

This would be Bob Euchre.

And I really only knew Bob Euchre from his light beer commercials.

I didn't know him as a baseball player or anything like that.

Didn't even know he was a baseball announcer.

But I only knew him from his baseball.

I'm sorry, his light beer commercials and him on a Johnny Carson show, which used to be hysterical.

But here, here's one of the light beer commercials.

All right, maybe I wasn't the greatest player of all time, but fans, they forgive and forget.

When I go in here, they'll be buying me my favorite beer.

Light beer.

Familiar?

You Bob Euger?

Yeah.

How you doing?

How these fans, I love them.

They know us ex big leaguers.

Drink life because it's less filling and it tastes great.

Well, can't keep the gang waiting.

Always joking.

Lake beer from Miller.

Everything you always wanted in a beer, unless.

I thought he was always so fun.

Yeah.

I'd never seen him play baseball, but I loved him in.

Oh, my God.

Major League.

Mr.

Belvedere.

He was Mr.

Belvedere.

Oh, that's right.

That's right.

I forgot he was in.

Yes, and he used to.

Okay, so anyhow, here you go.

Minnesota was the friendliest, Mike says.

And he knows because he follows at Duchessnj.

Okay, yeah, yeah, follow.

Yeah, follow Dutchess.

Here you go.

Bruce goes just a bit outside.

Just outside.

Or the other one.

And I never really.

That's from Jersey.

Major League.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

He was the announcer for the Indians there.

Okay, so here's the other thing.

There was another thing that he said.

And I don't have that commercial.

I couldn't find that commercial.

But he's going down.

He's like, one of the things about being a former major league player is you just call and you get tickets to any game.

So he goes to sit down and the guy goes, wait a minute, that's not narrative.

He goes, oh, it must be in the front row.

And we used to say that all the time.

Must be in the front row.

And I never.

I forgot where that came from until, you know, the commercial.

But I couldn't find it.

I couldn't find the video of it.

RIP man.

So anyhow, Artie Lang and Norm MacDonald ended up hanging out with Bob Euchre one time.

And Artie Lang's telling the story of this.

And you know, just because you got to know what kind of guy he is.

I love this story.

Norm did a commercial with it for light beer.

Okay.

So it was when we were doing the Norm Show.

So he invited Norm out to spring training in Phoenix, Arizona, and said, look, man, come.

Come the fuck out to Arizona.

You know, He's a guy you hear on the tv, Bob Euchre.

Right.

But.

But he's so filthy when he talks.

Every other word is fuck.

It's unbelievable.

And he's one of the funniest guys I've ever met.

Right?

So Norm says to me, hey man, let's go.

Let's go hang out with Euchre.

Cause he knows I'm a big fan, which was nice.

So we go to Arizona and It's the funniest 24 hour period I've ever spent.

We played a round of golf with Bob Uecker and he let us sit in the booth to listen to him announce a Brewer Cub game.

Okay.

Right.

Now, he had a cough button.

You know, if you're gonna cough, you hit the cough button and you're not on the air.

Sure.

So from what I remember, nor may not remember this, because he's friends with Bob Uecker.

But anyway, Euchre would be announcing the baseball game, right?

And like a jazz musician, it was unbelievable.

If he saw a really hot chick in the crowd, he would hit the cough button, right.

And say something filthy about her.

Then go right back to announcing the game.

It was like magic.

So I believe you think that's a high risk thing to be doing.

That's like walking the high wire, he would say.

So he would say like this, he'd go, here's the 2, 2 pitch to Sosa.

Ground ball to shortstop.

Look at the tits on that whore.

Over to first base, two down.

Hit the button that quickly?

Yeah.

So you must have been out of your mind, entertained.

And now when you listen to him, you're wondering, like during the.

Is what he's saying, Howard, that.

That was that.

That's the story I told on Letterman.

I cleaned it up.

Right, right, right.

And he started using like old guy words for the chicks.

Like he'd go, fly ball to center field.

God, I like to get with that troll up.

That's the third app.

So.

So the other thing he did.

Let me tell the one other thing he did, because this is amazing.

Yeah.

He sees John Fogerty.

Oh, that was what I was going to create.

His Clearwater.

Let me tell that.

So he sees John Fogarty, you know.

From Green Square on her mama.

So he's like, hey, man, that fucker's a rock singer.

He goes, but he can get out of the sand trap like nobody's fucking business.

I played in a charity tournament with him.

So we're like, yeah, yeah, yeah, we.

Know who John Fogarty is.

And he goes, at the seventh inning.

Stretch, he'll have the fucker come up.

And sing for you.

Fogerty's there with his kid, by the way.

He's a big cub face.

He's there with his eight year old son, John Fogerty.

We're like, no, no, you don't have to do that.

Right?

Don't get John Fogerty to sing.

Leave him alone.

It's all right.

We don't want him sing.

Singing in front of us.

So then he gets mad at us.

He goes, do you even know who John Fogarty is?

Yeah, yeah, he did Credence Clearwater Revival.

He goes, yeah, he did all that.

But anyways, so what happened to it?

So that's Bob Euker, all right.

So thanks to Bud Vugger, he went and found the Miller Light commercial, the one I was talking about.

I've watched major league about 800 times as an incredible movie.

It is a great movie.

Really great.

All right, here's the commercial I was talking about.

This is Bob Ucher doing a mowerlight commercial.

These were.

These were all the rage back in the 80s, late 70s, early 80s.

Here we go.

You know, one of the best things about being an ex big leaguer is getting freebies to the game.

Call the front office.

Bingo.

And once these fans recognize me, I probably won't even have to pay for my life here from Miller.

I love them.

These fans know I drink light because it's less filling and it tastes great.

Good seats, huh?

You're in the wrong shape, buddy.

Come on.

Oh, I must be in the front row.

Light beer from Miller.

Everything wanted in a beer and less.

Up in the nose.

Hey, Mr.

Tag.

Oh my God, I love it.

Yeah.

So Bob Euchre, 90 years man, playing with the house's money.

Good on him.

Good on him.

Honestly, when I saw it today, I went, wait, he was alive?

Like, I honestly thought he passed away a few years ago.

Kind of, kind of, sort of, kind of, sort of.

Yeah.

Now, did you also see we may not have anything prepared and that's fine.

Was David lynch died.

Who?

David Lynch.

He was a filmmaker.

He did a.

David.

Are you deaf?

Like, do you not hear what I'm saying?

I don't even know who David is.

He really that important?

He did Twin Pete.

Yeah, he's a big director.

Didn't you ever hear Twin Peaks or Dune, I bet.

No.

You know what?

Twin Peaks I thought was the dumbest fucking TV show ever.

I tried watching, I didn't get into.

It, but it was huge.

Yeah, I don't know, it was.

To be honest with you.

It's one of the dumbest TV shows and I've never seen Dune, so.

All right.

Sorry.

David Lynch's family.

Sorry for your loss.

Yeah, Dune, Dune was good.

Whatever.

The original Dune, I liked it.

Oh, I'm gonna gloss over that.

Alrighty.

Sorry.

I don't.

Just don't.

I don't give a.

Mike says.

Oh, Red says, the Last highway was a great movie.

I'm sure.

David Lynch, Velvet.

Oh, Blue Velvet.

That movie blew.

That's another movie that sucked.

I paid.

You know what?

That's the only movie that I've ever seen in a theater that I said, you know something?

I think I'm going to go get my money back.

That was the worst fucking movie ever.

My God, what a fucking bore fest that was.

Barky agrees with you.

Has no idea.

Yeah, listen, I'm sure he's loved by millions.

Yeah, Blue Velvet.

B, L, E W, Blue and Bug Buggers.

I was in with Blue Waffle.

Yeah, it was just horrible.

Horrible.

All righty.

All right, now I gotta get serious for a second here.

Oh.

Because we talk a lot of politics here.

And on the 19th, which is a Sunday, tick tock.

The congress can't fix grocery prices.

They can't fix gas prices.

They can't fix a thing.

But what they can't, they can't.

They can't shut down the border from fucking people pouring over.

The one fucking thing they could get done was they could put a band on TikTok.

Because the Chinese, the Chinese, they are stealing their information.

Okay?

Now I can understand if you're in a business or you're in the.

In the military and you've had some.

You don't want that kind of shit on your phone.

I get that.

Whatever.

But there's a whole industry.

Do you know how many people are on TikTok?

They use it.

Lots.

Lots.

170.

Over 170 million people are on TikTok, okay?

And they are fucking furious, okay?

And they are white women and gen zers and they got nothing to do and, and all day to do it.

Now Dutchess doesn't give a flying fuck about TikTok.

I don't care.

I mean, I don't give A shit.

She's not on it.

She doesn't care.

Now, as I've got to know, Dutchess, one of the things I know is she's a bubbly personality person.

She's on Facebook, she's on Instagram, she's on Twitter.

She's in Discords.

She's on all kinds of social media.

Which begs the question, why not Tick Tock?

I was on Tick Tock.

And you.

Did you quit when they told you it was stealing your information?

No, no, I quit a while ago because honestly, like a few years ago.

Okay, before the pandemic or after?

Because that's what it really took.

I only went on during the.

I found it during a pandemic.

So did I.

Yeah, so did I.

Because there was nothing else to do but, like, watch TV and watch.

Watch Tick Tocks.

Yes.

And.

And that's when I found it.

And it was fun, it was amusing.

And then after a while, it was.

It's a time.

It's so, for me, it's.

It's addictive.

It's a time suck.

And it's because you just scroll, scroll, scroll hours.

Just thumb and it's out.

And it literally got to the point, like, I can't stop looking at this.

So I had to just took it off the phone.

So addictive.

Stop looking at.

Yeah, I turned it off.

I just stopped doing it.

I get it.

I do.

Cold turkey.

And we've talked about this before, you know, there's big jiggly boob TikTok.

Oh, I don't care who puts their boobs.

I don't give one.

If you want to put your tits out, you go, there's right ahead, girl.

There's cooking.

Tick Tock.

There's hunting Tick Tock.

I mean, whatever.

There's.

There's Manjaro, Ozempic, TikTok, where they get on.

And I.

I mean, for any hobby, any interest, any kink, it's there.

It's all there.

I'm gonna say one thing about the Chinese.

Those made an act.

That's amazing.

All right.

And one of the things I think that pisses the people in America off is that they can't.

They can't duplicate it for some reason, whatever the fuck they did, whatever they.

Did over there with actual seasoning in.

The code, whatever, they cannot look.

YouTube has shorts.

Instagram has reels.

Facebook has reels.

It does not get the engagement in that.

That.

That's where I end up watching Tiktoks.

Right?

And Twitter has shared over there or on Twitter.

Twitter has Does Twitter have stories now or is it just.

It's in the feed.

It's have videos.

It's just in the feed.

All right, so you have videos.

All right, so we did a little experiment today, all right?

I made a video and I put it right on TikTok and then Dutchess took the video and put it on Twitter.

And I gotta tell you, I was really, really impressed with the amount of gay Engage now art Boomer Bunker.

TikTok has like four videos on it.

Okay.

And who runs runs that?

Not me.

Okay, well, I just want to be clear, what's your.

I just want to go, well, what's your issue?

Because when I said we have a tick tock and you first seen anything, you said was, that's yours.

Because I don't have tick tock and I'm not running tick tock.

Well, I don't run it.

So it's.

And you're like, well, I only got four videos because we.

I don't run it.

Yeah, right.

It's.

It's just too much.

I didn't mess around with it because I'm not good with social media anyhow.

I get that.

But today I took a video and I think, what was it?

How long was it?

It was like three minutes.

It was three minutes.

All right, so I did a three minute video and I did it at 10:00 right now, you know, and I had less than 40 people that were on that were following us.

Right.

Right now that video has 512 views.

It's been liked, it's been shared, it's been, you know, and I was.

And there's comments in there.

I was shocked, shocked by the engagement.

Like legit.

Like, it looks like they're legitimate comments.

Yeah.

All right.

So I'm thinking to myself, damn, maybe I should fuck around with TikTok some more.

It's.

I scroll on it all the time, you know, so why not?

That's where you find your boobies, your booby girls sometimes.

But I'm more of a.

Be honest with you, right?

Like I said, I'm.

I figured out how.

When, like if I'm tired of big breasted girls bouncing up and down or country line dancing.

TikTok.

Why are you tired of that?

When I'm tired of that, I want to find something, I will go look for.

I'll just go into the search thing and I'll type in crock pot cooking and then they'll put some crock pot recipes and I'll go in there.

That's how I Found Jess from Jennison.

Her.

Her.

Her Tiktoks.

The grumpy cook.

Yeah, the grumpy cook.

I love her.

All right, so she's my spirit animal.

So again, I found this.

Now 171 million people.

If you take everybody that voted in the 2024 election, that's more people than voted in the entire 2024 election.

I think Trump got 74,000 and Kamal got 71,000.

Somewhere around that.

So there's like 30, 40 million people more than even voted.

And they're furious.

Wait, okay, go ahead.

Million million votes, right?

Millions.

Million.

All right.

You said thousands.

I don't even listen.

I don't.

Million.

I up.

Millions.

Millions and millions and millions.

Sorry, Chad's like millions.

You mean millions, right?

Yes, yes, yes.

Millions.

Just saying.

Billions.

All right.

Hey, do you know how many people are on Facebook?

How many people on Facebook?

Three.

Over three billion.

Oh, really?

Oh, oh, oh, yes, yes.

I think it is something like that.

Yeah.

But you know something?

Facebooks are for the olds.

It's like, you know, for my generation and your generation, the kids aren't on Facebook.

Millions and millions.

They're.

They're.

They.

Because the olds don't know how to do anything else.

They're not going to go to the TikTok.

Some do, but not many.

You know, they're there and they get to share.

You know, it's like, hey, I just saw a dog running around.

Anybody's dog out there.

And they got the little community thing where, you know, in their town where they bitch about everything.

And Facebook has its place.

I think it does for old people.

Clearly, there's over 3 billion people on it.

So, I mean, it obviously suits a need.

It's good for businesses if they maintain it properly.

It's.

It's a good outreach.

You get no engagement.

None.

You put.

I put that video on Facebook.

It gets.

It gets dick and bubblegum, and they're all out of bubblegum.

The thing about Tick Tock is it gets engagement.

All right?

Unless you get like, what is it?

Shadow band or whatever.

I guess now, I don't know.

I'm not on it.

So here's the.

We've.

We've established it.

We've always.

Is that Duchess is not on Tic Tac, Tic Tac, Tick Tock, the tickety talk.

She's not on.

So we.

We've established that.

So she really.

She's not really talking from experience.

Correct.

Okay.

So, anyhow, I don't know what you.

Want me to say.

Okay?

So sorry.

I Locked up there.

All right, so.

Okay, because when you.

When you sit there and you say stuff to me, you throw me the fuck off.

When you say, we've established that you're not on TikTok, and I don't know why you kind of keep telling us that, but.

Okay, because you throw little jabs out like.

Well, if you knew, you know, like you just using it a bit.

So I'm going to just be.

Not everything's about you.

I'm not.

You're talking to me.

Well, I'm talking to you.

Okay, I'm talking.

I'm talking to you, but I'm not talking about you.

Well, I know.

All right.

All right.

Okay.

Do you want me shut my mic so I don't bother you while you.

I just don't understand why you.

Everything's a personal attack to you.

What we're talking.

I get.

It's not an attack.

I know.

Think of it as an attack.

Millions and millions and millions of people.

Listen, Bob, you pull that mic back to where it's supposed to be right now, so.

Oh, we're talking.

You're talking to me?

Yes.

You talking to me?

Yes, I am.

So here.

So the ladies are furious.

Moving right along.

They are furious because there's billions and billions and the white women are really, really mad.

Never have I been so convinced that Americans are burnt out on fucks to give.

Okay?

We have also never been so willing to fuck around and find out because we all just flooded Red Note.

All right?

Red Note for those don't.

That don't know is that the.

The Chinese, they have TikTok for us, but on that for their people, they have Red Note, which is called, like.

I don't know, it's called.

It's got some kind of Chinese name.

I forget what it is.

But anyhow, it's called, like, the Little Red Book.

So now all these white women are like, yeah, fuck you.

Guess what?

We're going to RedNote.

So that all these Americans started flooding and downloading the Red Note app on their phones and the.

There's a million miles between those eyebrows.

All right, here we go.

So anyhow.

Stop it with the chat.

I can't get.

You're confusing me.

All right?

I'm not allowed to.

No, no, you can.

I have to.

I have to maintain focus.

Focus, Johnny sun, focus.

So they all ran over.

Nobody ever heard of Red Note before.

It went from, like, obscurity to number six at the App Store right now.

And it's climbing.

So now the Congress is like, fuck, what are we going to do?

Because that's really, really China.

That's the CCP app that they let the Chinese people do it.

All right?

So they're very.

They're nuts.

Now here's the other problem.

China doesn't want these filthy Americans with their filthy democracy and their filthy Western values coming in there and polluting.

They don't want to start the Americas.

They don't want them to start getting the Chinese all up in arms and want freedom and shit.

Let them start thinking and stuff, right?

So the first thing that they did was they wanted to take and put all these American people on a different server.

So they don't.

We don't want to mix races.

You know what I mean?

We want to keep the.

Your filthy segregated.

Yeah, segregation.

They believe in segregation.

I don't blame him.

And I'm thinking to myself, okay, I get it.

But, you know, I mean, I was on TikTok the other night, and I'm scrolling and scrolling and these ladies, they are not.

They are pissed.

And I don't blame them, number one.

But a lot of people make a lot of money on this app.

Like, you know, you get views and all.

And I was like, how much can you make on this app?

Here's a teacher, and she went, and.

And she's giving you all the stats what she made last year on TikTok.

This might change your mind, Duchess.

I'm sharing with you all how much I made from TikTok in each month of 2024 as a, like, smaller creator.

For reference, I have almost 300, 000 followers, and I better hit 300, 000 followers before this band goes through.

But I get a lot of questions on this, and I figure it's just this app might get banned.

I might as well share.

I'm a little neurotic about tracking my income, and I like to do it all on paper.

So that's why everything's here.

In January, I made $11,700 a month.

$11,700 a month.

That's a lot of money.

Like, in other words, that's raise a family money.

I hope she's paying taxes because she certainly just.

Yeah, well, I'm sure she's paying taxes.

I think at that level, you have to, because you can't just have 11.

You can't just have a monthly income.

Okay, let's see, like another hundred thousand dollars drifting in.

Okay, yeah, in February, my account was hacked, but I still made $2,271.

In March, I made $6,307.

In April, I made $4,626.

In May, I made $4,229.

In June, I made $9,941.

In July, I made $5,800.

In August, I made $1,600.

In September, I made $9,700.

Back to school, she makes more money.

In October, I made $9,211.

In November, I made $7,540.

And in December, I made $4,190.

So, yeah, if this app goes for real, I'm going to be a little sad, a little broke, a little back to living on my teacher salary, which is not the funnest thing to do.

But, yeah, this is why we shouldn't be in Tik Tok.

I know so many teachers that have been able to make, like, a second income with this app.

And it's just, honestly, this app is one of the best things to happen to my life.

I never made an account on here.

I never started posting on here.

All right, so Red's asking, like, what'd she do?

She's a teacher and she talks about teaching and stuff.

And then the lady, Jess from Jennison, she is somebody that.

She angry cooks.

She angry cooks.

She hates her family, right?

They're not just taking and shaking their boobs and stuff like that.

There's a lot of people that are on here that have a following for whatever reason.

There's a guy that I follow, all right, He's a farmer from Arkansas and he's got a bull named Rufus.

I wonder if Jody knows him.

Don't they all know each other?

Yeah, everybody in Arkansas knows each other.

Jody, do you know that guy?

Jody, you know that guy from Arkansas that has the bull Rufus in Redford?

Redford and Rufus.

And he goes in there and he takes videos of this bull, and he's got a huge account, so I'm sure he's making that.

Oh, that's the other thing, because not only do they have that, but they have like a cash app or a Venmo attached to it.

It's his cousin.

It's Jody's cousin.

So they have a cash app and then people start sending him money, like, hey, why don't we get.

I would like to see Rufus get, you know, better feed and a big hay bale and stuff like that.

And then you know what else they like to do is his daughter.

Because they raised Rufus from a little tiny bull.

Little tiny bull, bottle fed that.

Rufus loves his daughter, so his Daughter comes in, feeds him donuts and cookies and shit like that.

And it gets Feed bulls.

Yeah.

Gets millions and billions and billions of views.

And I'm sure he's making money, too, so.

Remember the guy who had the squirrel or the.

That they killed?

Yeah, but he was on different.

Like he was on Facebook.

Well, he's probably on.

Yeah, he was on TikTok.

He was on TikTok.

He was on TikTok, the squirrel and.

And the raccoon.

And they came murdered.

Right.

Kathy Hochul.

Right.

And the people came in and they.

Like trolls do.

They slaughtered his side money.

Yeah, they caught.

And then.

Yeah.

So now he's got to go.

Thank you, Smirky.

Not only did he do that, but see, him and his wife had an only fam.

So they used the squirrel to l.

Or people that are only fans.

They're Squirrel.

Yeah.

Red says, is she teaching school in her birthdays?

No, no, no.

She's very.

Listen, legit.

It's legit.

You know me.

I research.

I went back and I watched her videos and she was talking about school and what her students do and what her students say and, you know, funny stories about her students and stuff like that.

And so she would have to get permission from the school district.

I don't know.

A lot of schools don't allow you to have that kind of social media.

I have no idea.

I'm just telling you what a content.

I don't know what she did, whether.

It doesn't matter.

All right?

Jody says easy money is easily lost.

Yeah.

But it's a nice, nice little side job.

And in this.

And listen, in this economy.

Okay, well, why the fuck are they.

Why are they banning it?

Why are they banning it?

I don't know.

I don't know either.

All right, but they're saying.

Because the Chinese, they have to sell it.

So here is.

And they're so fucking mad at Congress over this.

Watch this.

TikTok will be banned unless it is sold.

Senator Blumenthal.

I mean this in the most dis.

I want to back this up a little bit.

This guy, I watched him talk.

Ghoul, by the way.

Yeah.

I don't trust anybody when they talk.

You can see their bottom teeth.

I don't like that he's hanging.

He's always got his bottom teeth chilling.

He's got his lip over.

His bottom teeth are sticking out.

I don't like this guy.

I saw him during the Senate confirmation hearing hearings.

He's a little creepy.

Yeah, he's a little creepy.

And this lady's Having none of it.

And unless it is sold.

Senator Blumenthal, I mean this in the most disrespectful way possible.

Get bent.

I don't trust a word that comes out of your mouth because you used my family and their tragedy for political gain.

You took the most devastating thing that happened in my life and used it to pass laws and then to get reelected.

You asked me to help you get reelected, remember?

And recently when I emailed your office about tax cuts for veteran families, I heard nothing back.

Not even a stock response.

Now you want to take away a source of income for my family and millions of others in the United States over threats that haven't even been realized.

The only threat to our society is our government.

And I put you at the top of that list.

She's pissed.

She's pissed.

The government.

Yeah, they want it gone because they're eating Facebook's lunch and X's lunch.

They're eating their lunch.

So again, I think that's very much part of it.

But they're not going.

They're not going quietly into the night.

I don't.

I don't think it's going to get pulled.

Oh, I think maybe an 11th hour save.

Right.

I think something's going to come up.

Because this guy here goes on a Jamingo.

Oh, It's a threat to our national security.

No, the.

It's not.

You want me tell you how the.

I know?

Because that would imply that the federal government actually gives a flying about you and they don't.

And I can prove it.

If they did, people wouldn't die because they can't afford fucking health insurance.

If they cared, kids wouldn't get shot in their classrooms if they gave one single fucking shit.

They'd stop sending billions of fucking dollars to foreign countries while 32,000American veterans who fought for this country and its freedoms don't have a fucking pot to piss in.

They never cared about you.

They're scared of you.

They're scared of what you and me can do together.

And you know what?

They should be.

It was never about national security.

If there's one thing that you can take away from this whole debacle, it's that they never gave a about you.

Right wing, left wing, same bird.

There you go.

That's a Jamaico baby.

Well, when it's a Chinese company, it's not.

It's not really doing what it's not following, I guess, American rules or American anything.

They can't grab it, so they'll ban it.

Oh, okay.

Right.

Am I.

Right.

Like, I don't.

I don't know.

I don't.

I don't know enough about Tick Tock.

I really don't.

But you said, really, you don't know that much about it.

That's okay.

All right.

I won't stop discussing it with you because I'm trying to weigh in.

Don't be a dick.

I'm just trying to weigh in.

But I don't know, because I don't know the facts.

I'm clarifying it, but you busted my balls on it.

You know, I felt this.

Listen, when I first list.

When I first thought about this, I was like, you know what?

They don't need our information and all that.

And then I.

I saw this and I was like, so let me play this and then we'll discuss.

What a great point.

If it's so dangerous for China to own an app because it's a threat to our data, then why do they allow them to make our phones, Internet routers, modems, home security devices, cameras, tablets, smart home devices, computers.

Literally every single device that stores our data.

That doesn't make sense.

What a great thoughts.

Okay, so why.

So first of all, tell me about your data.

Because they make everything else.

They make your iPhone, they make your home router, my computer, they make all this shit.

Alexa.

Yeah, yeah, all that stuff.

They make it all.

And nobody bitches.

They don't bitch about that.

So you know who they're pissed at?

They're pissed at.

What's his name, the guy from Facebook, Mark Zuckerberg.

Matter of fact, they're calling him Zuckerberg.

Yeah, they're calling him Kuckerberg right now.

And they are en masse.

Deleting Facebook, deleting Instagram, WhatsApp, anything that has to do with meta, they're all getting rid of it.

Deactivate, delete, defund, Meta.

Here's my puppy to grab your attention.

We now know.

I think your kitty would work better.

But I digress.

Allegedly for legal purposes, that Zuckerberg is.

Behind the TikTok ban and that our politicians were not only bought with his money and other interest groups, but they also likely have stock in Meta.

And so they're going to benefit twice.

From shutting down TikTok.

A lot of you use meta apps.

For essential communications for your businesses or your support groups.

If you need those apps, I'm not going to ask you to delete them.

But please consider deactivating them between January 19th and January 26th at the least.

If that's not possible, consider changing your.

Settings I'll link below to make it so that Facebook and Meta cannot profit from your information in the same way.

And if you can delete the apps, get off defund.

I mean, they're pissed.

And I would love to see this.

Remember what happened with Bud Light?

When a bunch of consumers get together, 170 million people have this app and.

A year later, Kid Rock's drinking Bud Light on stage.

So it doesn't fucking matter.

It's like saying we're going to protest the gas tax.

Nobody buy gas tomorrow, but people will be buying gas in three days.

So, like, it doesn't fucking matter.

So unless people clearly get rid of it, which they're not going to, you know, I think some people will delete it and I think other people will go, yeah, yeah.

And they won't.

It's driving the stock price down.

And here's the other thing.

People are asking how to short.

How to short Meta stock.

So if people start shorting this and then other people start.

Remember I don't know how many years ago when we were sitting there wondering who was going to win MySpace or Facebook.

So there you go.

Just saying.

I mean, it's pretty.

It's interesting because I'll be honest with you, I barely go on Facebook anymore.

I don't really go.

I maybe go once every other day or something like that.

I don't find anything in there that, that that interests me.

I find more.

I get my news from TikTok.

I scroll a lot.

I get my news from Twitter.

X.

You know, I don't go on Instagram.

I don't really use it.

Red rather have MySpace.

Yeah, that was back.

Remember when they used to make your pages and you had the glitter thing for bands and shit.

Poor Tom.

What's wrong with Tom?

That was like the profile, like when you first got.

Oh yeah, that's right.

I forgot.

Tom was my only friend on MySpace.

Tom never would have let us down.

Tom would have let us down.

That Mark Bruce says Tom was my only friend.

Yeah, cuck.

MySpace would be great for podcasters.

It would.

It might not.

Yeah, it might be.

To be honest with you, I think.

That'S what even still around.

It's music now, right?

Or is it?

Who knows?

Do you know anybody has a MySpace account?

I don't even know.

Does it?

Can you get.

I had a MySpace account.

I wouldn't be able to find it.

Yes.

Yeah, I wouldn't even know how to get to it, to be honest with you.

So saying that I think that Congress is going to now the person that they're really mad at is Senator Tom Cotton from Arkansas, because he's like, we're not moving this back.

And that's it.

We're getting rid of it.

And then Mr.

Wonderful from.

What's that show called?

Shark Tank.

Shark Tank to Leary.

Yeah, he wants to buy it.

And then China's like, oh, fuck you, you, you round eye.

You don't have enough money.

Fuck you, round eye.

We don't.

And so I'll be honest with you.

This is the latest development.

The Supreme Court, it's before the Supreme Court to see if it's constitutional.

That's number one.

They say that the Supreme Court is about ready to uphold the band, but the Biden administration is out of here in four days.

All right?

The ban goes into effect on the 19th, the day before the inauguration.

So the Biden administration's like, listen, we're not going to enforce it.

We're not going to find the App Store, we're not going to find Google stores.

Oh, thank you, Sparky.

Like my Chinese accent.

They're going to not find them.

And then the Trump administration is like, you know what?

We don't need this shit.

We don't need to.

You know, why, why, why are you throwing this on my plate the last minute?

Well, there you go.

So I think, to be honest with you, I don't think it's going anywhere either because it'll piss too many off.

Now remember, there was a state senator from South Jersey who was also the president of the Senate in New Jersey.

His name was Steve Sweeney.

Two years before his election, he decided to raise the gas tax 32 cents per gallon.

And everybody had a shit fit.

We were all calling about it.

We called our senators and freeholders and everybody mayors.

We called everybody about this big phone campaign and they raised it anyhow.

And we said, you listen, you motherfucker, we are not forgetting this.

You think that in two years we're going to forget about this.

But.

And I said this because I was pissed.

I said, right before your election, I'm going to remind everybody how much when you raise this fucking tax.

Because you figured you had two years to do this and he's got his campaign going on.

And there was a guy in Salem county, he was a truck driver.

He spent 500 hours on his fucking campaign.

And we, we booted Steve Sweeney out.

And that guy was the new senator of his district.

And he hasn't been back since.

Now they say he might run for governor.

Well, it's more to make a statement.

And it made a statement, right, for sure.

That people had had enough.

Enough.

And I think that's what's going on here.

This might be the fuse that's lit where people are like, fuck you.

Fuck this government.

They see what's going on in California.

What are all the purple hairs going to do if they get rid of TikTok?

Where are they going to?

Where are they going to go?

Where they're going to yell.

They're not going back to Facebook.

See, Mark Zuckerberg thinks they're all going to go back to Facebook.

They hate Facebook.

First of all, they've been on Facebook.

They were never on Facebook.

The reason they got off of Facebook, because Facebook wants your real name and everything.

And these kids want to be anonymous.

They want to be able to be.

You can.

You can make up anything.

Name.

Yes, of course.

I know.

I have one made up a Blue sky.

That's what Jason says.

Listen, I'm not even trying.

Blue sky, that's a hot mess over there.

I wouldn't even.

I wouldn't last 15 minutes over there.

So I don't even bother with that one.

Right.

That's.

X is more fun.

X is like the Wild west, though.

But definitely more fun now that I got my account back.

But even X, like, there's some things that Elon Musk is for and everybody else is against and they're attacking Elon Musk and he's like, guess what?

You're blue.

Check.

You lose a check mark.

You lose a check mark.

He don't care.

Right.

And I don't give a fuck.

Right.

He don't give a fuck.

Whatever.

Right.

We don't like it.

Bye.

Bye.

Exactly.

Which I be honest with you, when you're talking about something supposed to be a free speech platform, as long as you're on his side, then it's free speech.

But if you're not.

Yeah, I don't really agree with that.

You should be able to take your fucking lumps.

Hey.

Well, he.

I think he lets people take their lumps.

Yeah.

Everybody else.

He doesn't take away people's right to free speech.

He may just question it.

You can't make any money.
