16:27
our back
16:31
very grateful to have or please welcome to the
16:33
same los angeles city council person if iraq
16:35
and
16:38
oh thank ,
16:40
so much for being here and you for having
16:42
me so i'm really goes your here because they
16:44
think you are the local level tackling
16:46
an issue that cities across the country are facing
16:49
and one of the reasons i was eager to talk to you is i
16:52
don't totally understand this but you
16:54
have been posting on social media the fact that in
16:56
los angeles a city like many others grappling
16:58
with an unhealthy crisis that instead
17:01
of a coordinated city response l a has built
17:03
a system where each of our fifteen tell to
17:05
districts handled the issue for themselves
17:08
themselves i instinctively new this especially when i
17:10
saw criticism of other council
17:12
members for their response it's amazing that this
17:14
we're down to a council district as opposed to
17:16
a citywide office keys or the little bit about why
17:18
that is and why that the implications
17:21
the reason why it's the way it is actually
17:23
makes sense when you're in office and i didn't quite
17:25
realize how bad it was before
17:27
i started by when you're
17:29
in a council office when there is an encampment
17:32
in your district your office
17:34
gets calls about they just want
17:36
it gone people wanna gone immediately they don't care
17:38
how you do it they want to gone immediately and
17:40
your office is facing an incredible amount of pressure
17:42
and so the system that we developed in
17:44
the city were really developed at the council
17:46
district level in many ways and people want to
17:48
retain that control they want to decide
17:51
what happens to encampments in their
17:53
district whether it's you build housing
17:55
and you put people into that housing are you put
17:57
up a sign saying you can't camp here and
17:59
people have morale and whatever the
18:01
responses people want to control it themselves
18:03
and that's the system that we built here and that's
18:05
a system that continues to be in place
18:08
though on the one end though i know you've
18:10
done some innovative things to try to get people into
18:12
hotels but , the other
18:14
hand there's an issue where but another district basically
18:17
says we want to clear this encampment they
18:19
don't care if they go one street over right
18:21
so how do you think about that conflict were in the one
18:23
hand it's good that you've been able to make a difference
18:25
in your district in their a conflict there
18:27
between saying there between there should be a citywide response
18:29
and yeah you've been able to make
18:32
progress at a local
18:33
edit but i don't think that those two things are
18:35
in opposition to each other we have been able to make
18:37
an incredible amount of difference in our district we've
18:40
housed we estimate about a third of done
18:42
house population in our district since i started
18:44
a little over a year ago which is
18:51
and the way we've done it has been really sustainable
18:53
which means we find housing unit the
18:56
people indoors and that mean they
18:59
are able to not just move across the street
19:01
which is what happens a lot of the time they actually go indoors
19:03
and they stay indoors and we have five
19:06
people on our staff were devoted to the issue of
19:08
homelessness which means that we follow up on
19:10
the places where they go indoors to make sure that they're getting
19:12
the housing navigation to move from hotel
19:14
rooms into permanent housing such an incredible
19:17
amount of work and we've been able to put that work
19:19
interpol
19:20
yeah i think a centralized responses weighed
19:23
more effective because
19:25
that's are you have
19:27
a center site for example in in our district
19:29
we have a couple that was right on the border
19:32
of our district and there was a shelter site that
19:34
was two blocks from them that
19:36
had beds available but because
19:38
they were in a different council district they couldn't go
19:40
indoors to that once and they had to wait till
19:42
shelter beds opened up in our district and it took
19:45
weeks for those beds to open up and
19:47
they could have been indoors so long ago
19:49
a centralized system allows you taxi
19:51
avoid all of that and the other thing
19:53
that thing think is really important to understand
19:55
about the way in which we've responded to homelessness
19:57
for so long and away is that
20:00
just have never had the
20:02
bed for people to go into whether
20:04
it's hotel rooms whether it's apartments
20:06
whether it's interim sites like congregate
20:09
shelters or tiny homes whatever
20:11
it is don't have
20:13
the reason is because we've
20:16
given the responsibility for building these
20:18
bed councilmember and
20:20
council members whenever you build a site
20:22
face incredible opposition from the community
20:25
if you put up a building in your neighborhood you're
20:28
gonna get community to come out
20:30
and say we don't want this in our neighborhood so
20:32
you've literally created a system where the
20:34
person who has least incentivized
20:36
to build that housing is in charge of building
20:39
that housing
20:40
the you can see why we got to the place that we
20:42
are today because this is how it's been set up
20:44
when thing you said earlier which i think is reflected
20:46
in some of the politics of people just want to solve
20:49
and into their contacts you have someone like recruit so
20:51
running on a platform pledging to declare an emergency
20:54
creighton an year what would have taken years
20:56
to create was thirty thousand beds claiming
20:59
to just add police and address the problem
21:01
right the cut it for people just
21:03
want it solves what do you think
21:05
of that kind of a plan is it possible that
21:07
cynical
21:08
well you know i think for me this
21:11
thing when i hear something like that it's
21:13
or to think about how we've responded to homelessness in
21:15
l a for a really long time a
21:18
lot of the interventions that we've been
21:20
putting into place whether it's more money for
21:22
service dollars for measure age which just
21:24
past the handful of years ago and the money is
21:26
just getting spent now whether
21:28
it's building through prop eight hh and we're just
21:31
getting those apartments constructed now
21:33
that they're it's home to your room key funds all
21:36
of these dollars are just coming into
21:38
place now to address this crisis
21:41
which means that for years we let
21:43
homelessness grow an incredible
21:45
amount and good almost nothing to
21:48
address it through services are through housing
21:50
then over the last two to three years
21:52
we've seen an explosion of services
21:55
of housing of exactly the kinds of things that
21:57
can really end homelessness
21:59
the thing i always want to tell people as we
22:02
just got started on anyone
22:04
who was coming in and saying to
22:07
us i'm minute break down
22:09
this whole system the
22:11
me that feels like it doesn't
22:13
acknowledge where we are in this journey which
22:15
is really the first moment in los
22:17
angeles when we have the tools and
22:19
place to really take on the crisis
22:21
at the level of urgency that it needed to be taken
22:24
on so many years and
22:26
to try and break that system down i think is sad
22:29
one of the issues i think is i don't know if people understand
22:31
how district by district this is severe
22:34
in a part of the city where there's not much
22:36
help being provided the problem seems
22:38
to be getting worse you might look to a mayoral
22:40
candidate who just as admin to fix it yeah
22:42
you don't worry about this anymore i'm coming in on declaring
22:45
an emergency i'm gonna fix it but
22:47
it seems as though i think people's fears
22:49
being exploited means people understand just
22:51
how hard it is create thirty thousand beds and what i would
22:53
actually look like where the legal implications for
22:56
saying that encampments are going to be banned or people can't
22:58
sleep on the street right like a couple donors
23:00
in a nuance of what it takes actually the
23:02
work
23:03
i don't think people do and the other thing that i want
23:05
to really emphasizes that we don't know we didn't
23:07
have the homeless count last year we just had it this year
23:09
again after coven started and
23:11
so we don't know whether we are doing worse or
23:13
better in my district maybe
23:15
this is naive but it feels
23:18
like we're doing so much better i mean i have
23:20
so many people indoors who are outdoors
23:23
for years i saw them when i wasn't
23:25
an office and i want to see
23:27
what the count shows after we've
23:29
made all these investments after we had all these hotel
23:31
rooms in place after we built new housing
23:34
like we've never built it before does
23:36
the number look different right now the
23:38
other thing that i want to say is that i think for
23:41
a lot of specially
23:43
during covered days felt like homelessness
23:45
was getting worse because the tense grew bigger
23:48
and this was because we had a policy in los
23:50
angeles based on cdc guidance
23:52
that people who are living in tents shouldn't be
23:54
disturbed to keep them safe like everyone else
23:57
and so for a long time i'm
23:59
like what open the whole hence
24:01
the name
24:02
and sometimes the grew even bigger and
24:04
so to people who are walking around it felt like
24:07
there were so much more homelessness and
24:09
we don't know if that's true or not we
24:11
just don't have the data to say we
24:13
had a few volunteer counts that we're done
24:15
last year and were those volunteer
24:17
counts for done homelessness either stayed
24:20
flat over this period or actually
24:22
decrease so the minimal
24:24
data we have actually shows that were
24:26
people are feeling about this moment
24:29
may not be reflected in the reality but
24:31
i think we can work to make sure that
24:33
people actually getting indoors that tense
24:35
come down and that people can see that
24:37
dissonance slowly go away yeah i do think
24:39
there's a on
24:40
the one hand you want to give people the facts
24:42
were you don't want to let demagoguery lead people
24:45
to think that the crisis has exploded
24:47
a way that hasn't necessarily yet at the same time
24:49
i think there is in the news a lot
24:51
of reporting about homelessness i think
24:53
is what offering a crime there's also evidence that
24:55
there was during the pandemic a spike in gun
24:57
crime a spike in homicides and
25:00
i do think sometimes there is this impulse
25:02
on the last which is self destructive which is the
25:04
right tucker carlson declares our city's
25:07
kind of nightmare woke health scapes and
25:09
then people on the left her six no
25:11
no no no no these fears overblown your fears
25:13
are not real the fears are not real how would you talk
25:15
to your constituents who raise these issues do both
25:18
kind of the be to be issue honestly
25:21
with facts without dismissing people's
25:23
fears based on news that sometimes both things out of
25:25
proportion
25:26
yeah i mean i think that's a really good question
25:28
and something that we grapple with all the time in the onset
25:31
you never dispel fear
25:33
by dismissing fear when people
25:35
come to you and they say i'm feeling afraid think
25:38
the only thing you can say to them
25:40
the responded empathy you have to and
25:42
the numbers did buried out i mean there was a rise
25:44
in homicides in los angeles through the pandemic
25:47
but it was a rise that was reflected in
25:49
every city across america so
25:51
i think the thing that we have to be careful of
25:53
doing as politicians
25:55
in this city is to
25:57
say that we know exactly the to do interest
26:00
it is game because
26:02
if you look at every city across america during this
26:04
period homicides grew rate and
26:06
by the way in los angeles over the past couple
26:08
of months are going down again but over
26:10
the pandemic they did grow it didn't
26:12
matter whether cities increase police
26:14
funding or decrease play sending it didn't matter
26:16
whether they had ah republican mayor's
26:19
or democratic mares it really didn't
26:21
matter what the policies were in that
26:23
city homicide grew during the pandemic
26:26
i think that seeing that as a politician
26:28
is hard to do the
26:30
thing that this moment cause for which is to say
26:32
we don't actually know what led to the
26:35
rise in homicides over these last two
26:37
very very traumatic years we
26:40
do see some change in those numbers right
26:42
now but we need to look back we need to understand
26:44
what were those triggers that led to an increase in
26:46
violence and we need to make sure we're addressing
26:49
those issues i think the thing that
26:51
we cannot say as we know exactly what happened
26:53
we more police on the streets immediately that's
26:55
the only way to stop it because it
26:57
don't have the evidence to be able to say that that's the response
26:59
that's we need to have
27:01
no question i think a lot of people wasn't
27:03
as in their cities they're grappling with similar
27:05
kinds of politics what is
27:07
the way people have can be the most helpful
27:10
is in los angeles your office what's like the best
27:12
way people can get involved get involved fight
27:14
to kind of help iran has neighbors
27:17
so on homelessness specifically i
27:19
think the way that you get involved is actually
27:21
just by reaching out to your local
27:24
elected we hear from a lot
27:26
of people who want a lot of things from her officer
27:28
usually looking to us to solve problems i
27:31
would love to hear from people who want
27:33
to work on solutions i would love
27:35
to hear from people who want to say yes to
27:37
housing in their neighborhood or yes to homelessness
27:39
resources in their neighborhood i want
27:41
to see in los angeles a whole community
27:44
of yes come together and the thing
27:46
is that it's really easy to get people involved during
27:48
an election people want to volunteer they
27:50
want to vote it's really exciting
27:53
and then once the election is over
27:55
most people don't engage on that
27:57
issue anymore or don't engage at the local level at
27:59
all i think the best way the
28:02
get engaged on this issue and to move the city in the
28:04
right direction as to make sure that
28:06
that community that comes out during an election
28:08
and says we want a more just
28:10
future for los angeles we want a better future
28:12
for los angeles we want to los angeles that addresses
28:15
homelessness in a way that treats
28:17
people who are experiencing homelessness with dignity
28:20
that same community needs to be engaged
28:22
even between election thank
28:24
you so much
28:28
you so much for similarly
28:31
it be incredibly educational
28:33
and i know
28:36
i know for me personally there
28:40
are or what
28:41
i'm sorry i'm so so
28:43
the garden what is no need to know
28:46
what is going on air sees
28:48
your size is and
29:03
not again
29:05
that why
29:08
did you make your entrance or spooky however
29:10
to the was just thunder that's just rain
29:13
however i don't understand how that spooky it's
29:15
universal literary symbol of spooky that
29:18
but okay why are you interrupting my incredibly
29:20
powerful interview with councilwoman
29:22
divya ramen
29:26
well john
29:28
i'm here to talk about rainwater sorry
29:31
triggers the other trigger be i'm not trigger
29:33
physicists and triggered or why
29:37
does tell us why you're here
29:38
i'm here because you're blowing it you
29:41
, one of our politics is most
29:43
vocal advocates of stormwater capture
29:46
on your shows and you have a
29:48
single question of that are
29:52
no i'm taking over the ,
29:54
yeah hi how are ya first
29:57
of all let me apologize for joy
30:00
he's not exactly a policy wonks
30:03
so yes he is a little is
30:05
a little out of the zaps on these top i
30:08
know everything come on the show
30:10
to talk about stuff like this john has acted
30:13
like he's too good for it but he
30:15
seems willing to listen to you
30:18
though an idiot why don't you explain
30:20
to john
30:21
in terms you think he'll understand why
30:25
can't you install model is so important
30:28
especially here in allies
30:32
i'll try to follow
30:35
wow right now l a
30:37
doesn't that much rain or that
30:39
many periods of rain but when we do get
30:41
rain the only capture about thirty
30:43
percent of that rain right now which is a
30:46
pretty low figure and
30:48
l a currently imports about eighty
30:50
percent of its water from mostly from
30:53
northern part straight and so
30:55
in a city that's really prone to earthquakes
30:57
those lines get interrupted during an earthquake
31:00
the level of disaster that could result
31:02
for this city is pretty immense i think for
31:05
earthquake preparedness the combat
31:07
this incredible drought that we're back into
31:09
i think we really need to think here the stormwater
31:12
capture right okay
31:14
the are you following so far from do my best
31:16
okay ah my
31:19
fucking shell so
31:21
we're only capturing thirty percent that the slow
31:23
and f word i'm a
31:24
that hit the street right yeah or and that's
31:26
part of the issue as it tried to tell you
31:28
the other said like his blade runner cancer
31:31
the rain we need permeable
31:33
hearts taping is that okay okay
31:36
i'm in a backup because i get a little heated when i'm
31:38
talking about this so this did the
31:40
turf replacement rebate here in l a is
31:42
offered by the l a dwp they
31:44
offer use three dollars per square foot for
31:47
every square foot of lawn that you were place
31:49
with california friendly landscaping
31:52
friendly landscaping ask you to install ah
31:54
water capture features that is rains wales
31:56
i am a hero thank you and
32:00
it with a very easy process it
32:02
completely radicalized me on this issue
32:05
it taught me everything about
32:08
how we need to be setting up our land
32:10
so that ah water sinks down
32:12
replenishes our water table ah
32:14
the watershed principle of landscaping everything
32:17
like that it made me want to burn every one i see
32:19
ah so i know that there are
32:21
individual things there are programs
32:23
in place in the city that incentivize
32:26
people to take steps to alleviate
32:28
this problem of the fact that we not
32:31
only lose so much rain water by not capturing
32:33
it but then when we don't capture it
32:35
it just runs off our lawns and are paid streets
32:38
into the gutters carrying trash into the
32:40
if a big problem but ,
32:42
has to be bigger citywide solutions
32:44
right yeah and first of all this is
32:46
like more advertising i think
32:48
that had our this issue
32:51
then has been done by the dwp
32:53
it it's just like there
32:58
i ran i am a zero six years
33:01
and i feel like the city is making
33:03
a huge mistake not fading away to
33:05
work i thought
33:08
i might give him my number
33:09
let's get it , garden
33:12
show brought to you by the
33:15
municipal government los angeles
33:17
the cry of one other
33:19
pitch about why grass is terrible yeah
33:22
good sometimes there's little kid
33:24
that don't feel comfortable walking on grass
33:26
because one time someone told them there were maybe business
33:30
until they refused to put their bare feet
33:32
on grass and won't touch
33:34
it unless a parent
33:37
whose indulging their child in which may be leads
33:39
them to have kind of a complex that follows them
33:41
to the point where the only way they can be happy as by getting
33:43
applause from strangers scratchy like
33:45
towels on the ground to get them to walk across
33:48
allies who they literally won't touch
33:51
who this day just
33:54
another argument against grassroots is help all
33:56
of it's normal and you around happening
33:58
right now did you think your
34:00
the waning why you don't like grass and
34:02
what i'm hearing is why you don't like this segment
34:05
you have have aversion
34:09
then i think you've been taking it out on me
34:12
i'm really sorry and if the a we have personally
34:14
that it would be there there's some paper was
34:17
, takes up a lotta work work
34:19
out it sad as
34:22
it aired she's aired vegetarian
34:26
how guy
34:28
i am too silly around
34:30
when i don't even remember the
34:32
only lama here
34:35
let's get back to policy i know john
34:37
tries to have waited a real why that's why
34:39
are we doing more yet why are we
34:41
doing were what actions will be asking are
34:43
elected officials to take on stormwater capture
34:46
and in your experience
34:47
haven't been a challenge getting
34:50
other politician on board
34:53
we're
34:55
publicity is doing stuff it's just
34:57
moving very very slowly so we passed
34:59
a measure a few years ago and
35:02
a huge amount of money came from that for huge
35:04
capital projects that are gonna do a better
35:06
job of capturing are rainwater then we've
35:08
done it so far there's another big
35:10
part of a which is exactly what you're talking about which is doing all
35:12
these improvements in your home per
35:14
meal or landscape and rains wales
35:17
rain barrels range chains is average
35:19
i know it arranged in his arrange a is a change
35:22
the little cup and little cup and little cut the gets bigger
35:24
and bigger to capture the rain as a fall that
35:26
would have right
35:27
your i will miss it or so i was
35:30
hearing a listen yourself because i'm a great
35:33
get guest
35:37
the
35:38
you're so close it's basically a bunch of
35:40
cops they don't have to get bigger and bigger as they go
35:42
down that's optional and
35:45
they don't they don't have to the water they slow
35:48
it down so that instead
35:50
of a gutter was just like suits your water down
35:52
at your property giving it
35:54
no time at all to sink
35:56
down into the soil it just slows
35:58
it down so that it has the time to think
36:00
down instead of running off your pro speaking of
36:03
slowing things down
36:05
at any time you can just sort of hand the show back
36:11
whenever you'd like
36:12
in so everyone should be doing this
36:14
at their house doing by everything that you
36:16
did and the dwp has a program
36:18
we they were supposed to have something like five
36:21
percent of users do this at
36:23
their homes annually in order to meet
36:25
these very very ambitious rainwater
36:27
harvesting goals and
36:29
so far they have done it for less
36:31
than one percent of homes yeah
36:34
so it were behind were
36:35
where you bully none of you people done as yes i'm
36:38
in canada
36:39
yeah i strongly recommend the
36:41
program you're a renter talk your landlord into
36:43
it they can keep the money i guess i dunno
36:46
like there's a lot of good reasons to
36:48
do it i just want to talk about armada cannot energy

41:01
the batman dead wrong maybe
41:03
joke him booster
41:09
oh hello was a bath
41:11
his hand over to see you in
41:13
person sees that you want to talk about the
41:15
batman ya the podcast i when you
41:17
that you were books and it happened it happened
41:20
it happened
41:21
though i'm robert pattinson hottest them
41:23
into date ah i'm no
41:26
dissent , i think christian bale
41:29
and also listen this might be controversial
41:31
michael keaton keaton
41:34
something there there's something
41:36
there there's a safety and the michael keaton
41:38
batman there has softness to
41:40
at michael keaton star and actress
41:44
is actress not everybody is both by minds
41:46
yeah robert pattinson
41:48
star after yeah come
41:50
on up for debate the brooding
41:53
the nobody broods like robert pads and
41:55
brew that's true that's true other
41:57
twi hards in the audience and i rather
41:59
than
42:00
we're really have like we've really one
42:02
this year because case to nominated
42:05
for an oscar throbbing had like
42:08
a celebrated after now i say we
42:10
won okay bring ,
42:12
boys home we won the war
42:16
the cultural no more fast
42:18
though is it a problem
42:20
that the best make up in
42:22
the history of motion pictures there's
42:25
a hard guy turned into the penguin in
42:27
a very very derivative batman
42:30
film but i enjoyed a great deal just isn't
42:32
a problem that is the best makeup
42:34
in history our best
42:36
make up in history and history is a stretch
42:39
his yeah i don't know
42:41
about that but i will say because the
42:43
here's the thing about the make up you look at call
42:45
and feral as the penguin
42:47
they couldn't do anything about those going
42:49
i can do it either
42:52
right right there you look at the penguins
42:54
and i was like i would i was
42:57
in the pathetic and us also he's
42:59
like a successful business owner the club is
43:01
dope okay and
43:04
i'll say i'll be the first one to say
43:06
i want to try that drug i want to try oh
43:08
yeah and i want to try it yesterday
43:10
yeah who doesn't want to try a drug that the
43:12
d a love yeah he said the
43:15
a lot in your i give it to me
43:17
something that we should talk about the parking
43:19
rules of that club
43:20
there's one space and it's for the da
43:22
and right in front i'm going to say gotham
43:25
unlike los angeles has a functional public
43:27
transportation system so it
43:30
, easier one other thing i did
43:32
enjoy but the film is ah there was
43:34
valet parking at the mayor's funeral
43:38
ah that's when bruce
43:40
we hate arrives hate the funeral
43:42
for the mayor for just sauces the keys
43:44
at the church says a valet guy
43:47
and i are such that about gotham city that's
43:50
that cool funeral i'm putting that on my
43:52
will there must be valet one
43:54
of there thing and what i'm about to say is what sport is anyone
43:56
here to me uncomfortable with a spoiler it's not really
43:58
a spoiler
44:00
the movies three hours long even if we spoil
44:02
one thing for you you will forget
44:04
about it by our to okay and
44:07
get , it but here's
44:10
the thing and it's not a spoiler for with a reason about to say but
44:12
if you're concerned and you're want to go in jump
44:14
forward thirty second a
44:16
minute you will miss much
44:19
probably so , they act
44:21
like they're building to some big twist at
44:23
it turns out the bad guy is the
44:25
penguins evil boss young who
44:28
was bad and the first moment we saw him
44:30
yeah it's like they forgot know indices
44:32
this is one of my major is is with him
44:34
as a box with the film i and and
44:36
i like you i enjoyed we enjoy know when
44:38
you enjoyed the movie how to cut off my nuts i
44:40
loved the movie by the pay for sees
44:43
a sequel i will go i am before
44:45
burying our i had okay my
44:47
mascara on batman this is the thing like when
44:49
you are remaking a movies
44:51
have an ip that has been done this
44:53
many times it really does have
44:56
to answer the question why
44:58
and and
45:00
i don't think that this movie adequately
45:02
answers that question because and it gets close
45:04
to it because one thing that one interesting thing
45:07
the movie does do is it really tries
45:09
to hone in on batman being a detective
45:11
you know us there is an aspect of it the
45:13
feels like seven it feels like one of those like
45:15
late nineties like thrillers and
45:17
it's great it's very much an enemy seven
45:20
is a lot of that but the mystery
45:22
then turns out to be that the
45:24
most obvious evil person in the in
45:27
is the villa and everyone keeps saying
45:29
this thing goes all the way to the top and
45:31
were like you mean to the mayor who was killed
45:33
for being killed yes this
45:37
will we know that killed by the missouri
45:39
was in cahoots with yes
45:42
so that was confusing in that regard
45:46
in found that confusing and i wish
45:48
they would have leaned into that more or done
45:50
anything to differentiate itself
45:53
that's truly from the christopher
45:55
nolan batman movies which they didn't really do
45:57
like i would have rather they turn the volume
45:59
up the comic book net
46:01
the films and gone back to a joel schumacher
46:03
cartoon their ,
46:06
out and stay in the same sort of realism
46:08
universe yes it's fun to watch batman
46:10
use like gadgets that anybody
46:12
could use and fuck up and and become
46:14
a flying back and then you know fall fall
46:18
mothers wireless worse for like thirty all
46:20
eggs the villain of the movies actually
46:23
i'm impotent white male white
46:27
and that is like the thing is is
46:29
like i'm sorry gratitude berg
46:31
poison ivy is right there you
46:33
know like if you're gonna go realism
46:36
in the moment that we're in right now
46:38
school eco terrorism is the
46:40
way to go it's to now
46:43
i also think it's fine when a movie like oh this
46:45
is a movie about batman being a detective and and
46:47
then he's like let's see us more batman he's like
46:49
there's blood on the ground over here last
46:53
ah i'm really last or riddles i'm
46:56
good at tongue twisters and wordplay
46:59
or i gotta go put or more miscarriage
47:01
birmingham i'm
47:03
sorry not a single movie in existence
47:06
needs to be three hours long as you
47:08
want to make a movie set is three hours
47:10
long make a fuckin television
47:12
show okay the shallow sorry
47:14
blake lively is eighty seven minutes long
47:16
and that is the perfect length for a movie and i said
47:19
at it is especially insulting for to
47:21
be a batman movie
47:23
that three hours long when we make a batman
47:25
movie every six eight weeks hey
47:28
if you're getting close to the end of of making your batman
47:30
movie and you realize you have three hours
47:32
i have some great news for you have made to batman
47:35
movie will see a book in both
47:38
our families what and six months book
47:40
in and again and again we loved
47:42
every single minute of it will i
47:44
love that will not it whereas edna every
47:46
single minute of those three hours and i
47:48
loved thrills entertains but
47:51

47:53
go to the bathroom at the beginning of a riddler
47:55
speech get another drink get
47:57
a hot dogs do a bump of ketamine in the bathroom
47:59
and the
48:00
hum that and he was still doing
48:03
the same
48:05
that's not right ketamine
48:07
or the drops of lol central just threw in a
48:09
lot of weight when you think about don't put
48:11
it in your eyes of us so
48:14
we want to dig a little bit deeper ah you
48:16
claim to be familiar with the canon during i own
48:19
hundreds of them income so we're going to post i'm
48:21
hurting question so
48:22

48:26
, would you like to take a long road trip with
48:29
cesar romero jack nicholson
48:31
heath ledger jared leto leto
48:34
phoenix mark hamill who is batman
48:36
animated series and deserves more praise for is wonderful
48:38
voice acting or barry keegan
48:41

48:43
it is that who cares ah
48:46
i'm gonna say the only one
48:48

1:05:24
modified reunion but i'll
1:05:26
try to be as sexy as i can while
1:05:28
talking about reach
1:05:29
where i do pivotal of is fine because i
1:05:31
have a lotta say
1:05:34
reach her is the television
1:05:36
adaptation of the jack reacher book they
1:05:39
made movie adaptations before
1:05:40
with tom cruise and that are not
1:05:42
turned on ah wait
1:05:45
i'm not fair yes
1:05:48
and nine am i heard of foreplay
1:05:53
the thing is the movie it starred tom
1:05:55
cruise the main
1:05:57
thing in the books and i know this because
1:06:00
my husband has read a bunch of jack
1:06:01
read your book and will not stop talking to me about
1:06:03
them regardless , how many times
1:06:05
i've asked him to the
1:06:07
main thing about the character jack reacher
1:06:09
is that he's very big he's a big man
1:06:12
his body looks like a condom full of
1:06:14
walnuts this
1:06:15
direct quote we are
1:06:18
is direct quote from the book the
1:06:20
book describes him as describes him
1:06:23
full of walmart yeah that rules
1:06:25
that is so hot
1:06:28
and i'm aware that frankly had
1:06:30
like thanksgiving turkeys the
1:06:32
grocery store chickens
1:06:36
let me tell you the guy they got for the
1:06:39
amazon so pretty
1:06:41
big
1:06:43
they not only got a really big guy but
1:06:45
they also got a bunch of sword people
1:06:47
to act in excess and
1:06:49
they sued him from below like power
1:06:51
rangers point is i
1:06:54
i well as as a sub how can we bought the books but then he
1:06:56
talked me into watching the show and that has
1:06:58
enabled him
1:06:59
talk about the books lot more but i do
1:07:01
need to talk about shake from others wind i
1:07:05
have to talk about this about talk about
1:07:07
the reunion i'm not going to catch anyone
1:07:09
up who has watched it i
1:07:12
, give shake this he went into the reunion he
1:07:15
hadn't agenda he wanted to say love
1:07:17
is not blind this so is stupid stupid
1:07:21
i agree with him on that the problem is
1:07:24
this was season two and
1:07:27
he signed up the show
1:07:30
and the first words out of his mouth
1:07:33
at the reunion we're
1:07:36
i'm really worried about how i'm going to get edited
1:07:40
in such a stupid strategy for
1:07:42
strategy for
1:07:45
one the
1:07:47
over time in a pod asking the women
1:07:50
questions like
1:07:51
why we're close what size are you
1:07:54
and thus the you think
1:07:56
i could put you on my shoulders and
1:07:59
if you could have dinner
1:08:00
the one person living or dead wood that person
1:08:02
be having dinner with a fat woman are you fat
1:08:05
ah yes
1:08:07
i'm sorry no one is going
1:08:10
to believe that it's the editors
1:08:12
fault that you came off like an ass
1:08:15
going and say i'm worried
1:08:17
the at it is not the editors
1:08:19
fault man but second of all
1:08:21
according to his ex fiance on
1:08:23
from the show he got a good
1:08:25
at it the
1:08:28
had a vested interest in making it seem like these
1:08:30
two people might get married at the end of it so
1:08:32
they try and make you think that he's growing and appreciate
1:08:34
her for what
1:08:35
they haven't come in and what a good partner she could be
1:08:37
even as he's telling everyone behind her back that he's not
1:08:40
attracted her and according
1:08:42
to her he said way we're stuff that they didn't include
1:08:44
because of the narrative so i'm
1:08:46
calling bullshit on him blaming the editing
1:08:48
but third
1:08:51
i would maybe by his i was a victim
1:08:53
of bad editing act is the second
1:08:55
the reunion started all the other cast
1:08:58
members didn't start like booing him basically
1:09:02
you didn't get a bad edit if all the people who
1:09:04
spent a ton of time with you are literally telling
1:09:06
you to shut up as if you start talking but
1:09:09
not for
1:09:11
you're on a reality show and you're
1:09:13
truly worried about how you're gonna be
1:09:16
edited
1:09:17
don't open with i'm nervous
1:09:19
about how this is gonna be edited
1:09:22
you need to say hey i love
1:09:24
the editors of this wow
1:09:28
i trust them to do their jobs
1:09:30
that they're so smart and cool and i bet they can

1:09:48
everyone already knows this guy's a zillion and
1:09:50
i'm probably just adding to the pile on
1:09:52
that already happened in the reunion but
1:09:55
to defend myself i wanna read you
1:09:57
a comment instagram that
1:10:00

it landed on and
1:10:52
, is foundered guys that
1:10:54
are real wrong says hills well as hey hungry
1:10:59
feels wrong when i saw that
1:11:01
the founder of and summon so long island
1:11:03
native from bayshore who turned us
1:11:06
local baking concern into local
1:11:08
thriving national brands
1:11:11
my first reaction
1:11:12
the only reaction only
1:11:15
of response whatsoever with physical
1:11:17
hunger when
1:11:19
i saw the life of this man lad
1:11:22
right starting from basically nothing
1:11:24
making something excellent these incredibly
1:11:26
soft cookies in these fucking fantastic
1:11:28
donuts with little nubbins on on the make no sense
1:11:31
or magical and
1:11:33
, that he built it into a kind of thriving
1:11:35
enterprise by with grits and ingenuity
1:11:38
and hard work became a philanthropist
1:11:41
that helped his community all i thought
1:11:43
was i'm hungry that
1:11:47
i thought about how many times as a little kid
1:11:50
no matter what was going on
1:11:52
i could distract my mother and just
1:11:54
throw a box of those tiny little soft
1:11:56
to eat cookies into the car when
1:11:59
i saw that man was dead all
1:12:03
i cared about
1:12:05
these weather would impact the availability of
1:12:07
these cookies and streets
1:12:10
i thought to myself what a life
1:12:13
the brand protected what
1:12:15
, the same process gonna look like who controls
1:12:18
the engines i p p
1:12:21
is the an inside of intimacy not intimacy
1:12:24
now that i think about as you say and ten mins
1:12:27
entertainment intimate mins
1:12:30
, is the family going to squabble over the
1:12:32
intimates fortune could that lead to
1:12:34
recrimination and ultimately lawsuits
1:12:36
that might lead to this lack of availability
1:12:38
of those tiny little cookies or that delicious
1:12:40
cake
1:12:41
or that that the don't us again that
1:12:44
