Hobo with an Emergency Wall

If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot, stamping on a human face, forever. There are former Trump fans, all over the internet, who are burning their make-American great hats, which is very scary because it means they've discovered fire. It has to be with the fact that in a Soviet Union, if you want to buy an automobile, there is a 10-year wait. We have constructed a governmental welfare scheme, which has been a machine for producing poor people.

I asked you about Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. I think that all government is a waste of taxpayer money. Hello and welcome to the Daily Circus Podcast. I'm your host, and joining me tonight is Hobo with a Shotgun Red.

Hi, I'm Hobo with Shotgun Red, and there are 28 states of emergency that I'm going to solve with a shotgun, because when you've got a problem, I've got a shotgun. Well, that's right. So, yeah, we just came up with that opener off the top of our head right before the show started. Oh, really?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, because I watched a movie called Hobo with a Shotgun, and I was telling Red about it, it's hilarious. I recommend you watch it if you haven't seen it. So, the plot of this film is there's a Hobo, perhaps, with a gun of some sort. Yes, a shotgun.

Ah, OK, I see. And does he solve problems with said gun? He does, and that is the moral of the story, not to ruin the movie for you. But...

So, no twist at the end. He solves problems with the gun. Pretty much. OK, well, there we go.

This is just like our modern media climate. This is the level of reporting that I expect from CNN and MSNBC. I'm glad that we can be part of that. Well, I felt like it really could just be one long news story.

I hope that with a shotgun continues to have shotgun. Donald Trump was crazy. He continues to have crazy. Twitter, Donald Trump with Twitter continues to solve problems with Twitter.

Oh, man, that is so not happening. Create problems with Twitter. With shotgun, you know. Yep.

You're solving one problem, you're creating another. Exactly. All right, well, let's go ahead and jump into it for tonight. We're going to talk about the TSA first.

And this is, of course, in conjunction with our government shutdown, which Red, we're pushing two weeks, two days now. So, you're almost right on your prediction of three weeks. You're getting close there. And everyone's favorite agency is in the news.

These guys, everybody loves these guys. I got to tell you, TSA, this is, if you're not familiar with the acronym, this stands for Transportation Security Administration. And these are the people that ensure that you do not bring any water onto that airplane because we don't want water on airplanes. They're also the only people that are federally mandated to be immune from the Me Too movement.

Now, that doesn't sound true. But, you know, at this point, it probably is, you know, with the level of pat downs and backroom deals. And did you read the story about when they had the naked, full naked body scanners and the text were just sitting in the room laughing at people? Oh, yeah.

Yeah, that's great. That's a good sound part this season on that. No, well, that's good. Yeah, there's a TSA guy in the room with the scanner.

And the people out front just keep telling people to walk back through as a guy in there with a bottle of lotion and Kleenexes sitting in front of the scanner. So, I'm not against the TSA individuals just doing their jobs. But I am against the TSA organization just doing a poor job at Security Theater. Because if you look at any of these websites, people try to hack the system, it's pretty sad.

I think people sometimes get through one leg with a weapon and then they find it on the way back. And that is always very hilarious. When, sir, sir, I believe I found a weapon in your bag. Oh, I'm sorry.

That's been in there for weeks. Isn't this your return journey? Yes, yes it is. So that's it.

And I'm glad you used the phrase security theater because more people need to realize that's what the TSA is. It's a giant waste of money and it's security theater. It's there to make us feel safe. So I agree that it is better than what we had before because there's no more hijackings, generally.

I don't notice any airplane hijackings. But this current level is unnecessary. It is just unnecessary, in my opinion, the way we were doing things that you can't bring water under an airplane does not seem useful in any respect to me. If you have these sniffing machines everywhere, trying to detect chemicals and dogs everywhere and all this crazy stuff, I think we can bring some water.

Well, yeah, and I can't tell you the number of times that I've accidentally went through with gels and liquids and all kinds of crap in my bags that I wasn't supposed to have. And nothing was done. I didn't even notice it was there. Well, maybe they did and they just realized that it's stupid.

It's stupid not to let people bring hair gel on an airplane. You're probably correct. I mean, they were just going and being nice. So thank you TSA people for overlooking the stupid rules that are clearly stupid and make no sense.

Well, I have a feeling they might be overlooking quite a few more rules now that they're working for free. Yeah, so this whole government shutdown thing is having some impact since we've tried to run the entire nation on the federal government. And the TSA is one fantastic example of a federal poor mismanagement of a public good, which is the private aircraft industry that we all who fly take advantage of pretty routinely. And the worst part of that experience is, of course, the TSA.

And so now the TSA is not being paid. But I assume we are still legally bound to use them. It's not like, I'm not sure about this, but I don't think that the airports, because they used to do this, airports used to have their own private security and airlines would have their own private security and they would check people to make sure that they weren't going to try to kill everybody. There is a startup company now that's making ways called Clear.

And you can, it's not in every airport yet, but it is in a lot of major airports. And you can actually sign up for that. It's a service that you have to pay for. And my understanding is they use biometric data to get you through the line and they sort of have their own security set up so you can just go through their area.

And I guess it's whatever qualifies based on the standards that the government set up. And you can use that company instead of the TSA. That is amazing. This is a perfect analog to FedEx, except it's a service nobody wants.

So when FedEx was first designed, people said, why would you need a service that delivers packages and mail? We have the US Postal Service. And the FedEx guy said, yeah, but it's terrible. And everyone said, oh, you're silly.

Why would anyone ever use that? And then he made FedEx. And then came UPS. And I think there's DHL.

And so now we have TSA and everyone hates it. They do their best, I'm sure. But people are not happy, generally. That said, the last time I went through, it was actually pretty good.

I think I went off peak hours. So I got it through there pretty quickly. That's the key. It is.

So I recommend everyone get off peak hours through TSA during the shutdown. Because it sounds like everyone is calling in sick because they're not getting paid. And this is some kind of a protest movement. Is that right?

Yeah, so they're calling it a sick out. Basically, there have been large numbers of TSA employees that are just calling out sick. And it's not that they're never going to get paid, which is even sillier. They're just not getting paid right now.

They're still going to get paid at some point later, which just means all we've done is create a bunch of inefficiency because we're still, we're not saving any money here. We're still paying them. Well, I guess we're not paying them if they take sick leave. So well, they probably have sick days because they're federal.

They probably have a union. Well, that's true. But if sick days are like, well, you know, it depends on the rules because sick days, interestingly, depending on where you work, there are different rules. But a lot of sick days are it's, you don't, it's not worth anything if you don't take it.

And so they have kind of higher requirements to take sick days. Some places, especially when they've had a lot of sick days being abused, they'll have higher requirements to take those sick days like a doctor's note or you'll have to take a day of vacation off first or if you have any or something like that. And so maybe in this case, they just, there's no one watching the sick days. And so they're all just taking sick days.

Well, I think, you know, it doesn't even matter if there's anyone watching them because at this point, it's almost its own little mini protest. And if they were to actually walk out, that would be when the government shutdown ends. Well, I think what would happen is, you know, I don't know what would happen. It would be very, I actually would be very interested to see what happens if the TSA just walked off the job.

If they just, they just did a full strike and just walked off the job. What do you think would happen? Delta, American Airlines, Southwest, and what's, and what's the other big one? Giant and I.

Yeah, that's the four big ones that own 90% of your air traffic seats, by the way. They would immediately call their congressman that they've bought and paid for. And the government would be open again. No, I don't think it would because I don't think Trump responds to that kind of pressure.

I think you're wrong. I, so what, who do you think they would put pressure on? The Dems to pass the wall? Yeah, I don't know.

I don't know if they would put pressure on the Dems to pass the wall. It's going to depend on who they've bought and paid for. Already. But they have to get it passed Trump, whatever it is.

And it doesn't sound like he's not really because they can overrule Avito with two thirds majority. So that's true. You think that you think that Delta and United and Southwest and American could get a super majority? Well, you see, it wouldn't just be those companies because it's also going to be every company that needs to ship people somewhere to get a job done.

So that is interesting. You think they would use their way to try to lobby the government to reopen the TSA? I wonder if they would, I think you might be right. That seems like a reasonable approach.

I think it's also possible that they would just hire their own security. I mean, how could they get them trained that quickly? Yeah, I mean, it's going to be impossible. I don't know.

Because you could do patdowns. You could do, you could do wanding and patdowns. You don't have to use the government machines. Okay.

And just think though, this is the time to do a terrorist tech. What you were telling the American public is you are not willing to keep them safe because you want to build a giant wall. Oh, I think it would look terrible for Trump. Wouldn't that look so bad?

It would look the worst. That would be especially if there was an actual incident. I mean, you know, come on, they would just fake an incident just to have something to throw in the campaign ads. Well, couldn't he use his national state of emergency powers to order the army to be security at airports?

Well, I guess he could, which is a good segue into our next topic, which is the fact that Trump wants to use a state of emergency to declare a national emergency due to immigration on the southern border and build a wall with that emergency power. That sounds reasonable, right? That is the least reasonable thing I've ever heard of. This is the most horrid of, if that happened, it would be the most horrid abuse of executive power since 9-11.

Oh, that's not true. That is totally true. That is totally true. We're going to go through them.

Let's go through them. Right now, today, we're only going to go through the ones that are currently still in effect. I just want you to understand, right? No, I'm sorry, not right now.

But as of 2017, August 2017, there were, how do we got here? There were 28 states national emergency. What are they? Let's go through the list.

I'm sorry, they're not all still active, but that's in the past since Carter, that's how many we've had. Currently active, there are, oh man, there are a lot of them. So let's go through the ones that are currently active. Carter.

So Carter had a blocking Iranian government property, national emergency. It seems like you can end the national emergency at some point, let Congress pass a bill. But no, no, no. And so we've got several more.

Let's go through the list here. Prohibiting transactions with terrorists who threatened to disrupt the Middle East peace process. Prohibiting certain transactions with respect to development by Iranian petroleum resources. Blocking assets and prohibiting transactions with significant narcotics traffickers.

I don't know why you have to do this stuff because of national emergency. This just seems like a change in law. Prohibiting transactions with narcos. Like, can you just pass a law to say, we're not gonna sell things to drug dealers?

Well, especially in the mid 90s, you would think that they, I mean, that's the kind of legislation that they just salivated over. Very odd. Blocking assets and prohibiting transactions. And I think most of these are, most of these have ended.

Blocking assets and prohibiting transactions with significant narcotics traffickers. I think these are some of the ones they're still gone. So these are under Clinton. There's a bunch of these drug ones.

Continuation of export control regulation. They didn't even pass a law for that. But here we go. Here, blocking property of persons who threaten international stabilization efforts in the Western Balkan.

That just seems so crazy. That seems like a couple of dudes. Right? That is not a national emergency.

There's no way that that qualifies. That is the executive branch wanting to take action, trying to figure out how to do it. And they're like, well, what if we do a national emergency thing? And we don't have to get anybody's by.

And we don't need the army. We'll just change how the government works. Okay. So, but the best one obviously is the September 14th, 2001 declaration of national emergency by reason of certain terrorist attacks.

Right? Not a good thing to happen there on 9-11. But you'd think we could end it eventually, but no. Well, I mean, once you get the power, you don't want to release the power.

And they changed the law in like, oh, it's in 1974. They have to renew this stuff every year. And every year they keep renewing these things. It's really disgusting.

Maybe you'll take a, add the picture of the show notes and people can look at this thing. But it's just, it's just, there's so many of these things. They just keep going. I want to be, it should be clear to everyone listening that national states of emergency could not possibly continue for more than two years.

If they did continue, you wouldn't need a state of emergency to grant the executive branch special powers. You just pass a law. We got Congress. That's their job.

But no, we just, we just, I don't know. I don't think that's their job. Not anymore. At more non-laws, blocking property of persons undermining the democratic process in Zimbabwe.

Okay, yeah. Protecting development fund for Iraq. Blocking property, a bunch of this stuff is just about taking money away from political enemies. Blocking property of people exporting goods to Syria, blocking property about Belarus, about Congo, blocking property of Lebanon, certain restrictions for North Korea.

It's just ridiculous. You want to block? There's so many of these things. They just blocked property of people who are, quote, threatening the peace for making things worse.

Blocking, okay, 23. We're almost done. Blocking property of certain persons contributing to the situation in Ukraine. How great is that?

I.E. Putin. You're contributing. So we're going to block your property.

And then it's just, they're just taking money away from people. That's all this is. They're just, it's just asset forfeiture. They're just stealing money.

All those last ones were under Obama. His government was really good at the property, taking property. So I don't know how many of those are still ongoing. So here's the thing though.

Those all seem like things that are going to generate revenue or wouldn't cost that much. This is a $500 billion commitment to build a giant structure that is essentially, I'm just going to call it. It's the same thing as those big statues of Kim Jong Un. All right, well, hold on.

Hold on. Hold on. You said, I think just I want to correct her. You said, $500 billion and it's just $5 billion.

So continue on. OK. Kim Jong Un is giant. $5 billion.

Yes, it's just a $5 billion statue of Kim Jong Un. That's all the wall is. The wall is useless. The wall is not going to stop people from getting into the nation.

Do you know how most people actually get into the nation legally? Secret underground. No. Based on over 80%.

The numbers over 80%. Do you know how they do it? You want to take a guess? I'm going to say visa overstays.

Exactly. That's exactly it. So I wouldn't know why when the wall stops. All these people who are overstaying their visas.

Well, because they're already here. But I don't even know if he understands that, to be honest. As a matter of fact, the wall is going to keep them in. I think the people overstaying their visas are not the people that would be impacted by a wall.

I think the people impacted by a wall would be the people who've already overstayed their visas and been kicked out ones. And so can't make it through the checkpoint. And so they would have to go around. And so they would have to use a coyote.

Or they are the coyote. And they would have to come with some little group or some kind of anti-wall ladder, ladder technology. That'll be really big. Well, that's advanced in the year 2020 after the road technology.

Ladder technology. I think that'll be it. They'll have a lot of ladders. They sell portable ladders in Mexico.

The coyotes will have a lot of these things. Well, yeah. So let's talk about the coyotes too, because the coyotes are a business. For all intents and purposes, this is how these scummy people make their living, is smuggling people in the United States.

So it's not as if they're going to just suddenly wave their hands, yeah, or drugs or whatever. It's not as if they're just going to suddenly wave their hands in the air and go, they built a wall, guys. I guess we're all going to have to go back to being dirt farmers. Yeah, that is definitely, that is definitely.

No, that's not true. I disagree with you. I think most of them will go back to being dirt farmers, because the wall is just too big and beautiful and they don't want to ruin it. And what if it's just big and beautiful?

And they just think, wow, I really like that thing. I don't think that's going to happen. No, OK, so what will happen? But what will happen is my best guess would be that they'll just start taking them across the Gulf of Mexico and up into another state that currently doesn't have an immigration problem.

This is so that I think this is the right way to think about the problem. If we build a barrier, it will. I believe that it will have an impact. And I believe that it will lower whatever amount there is now.

Any time you put a wall in front of something, it's like an economics that called a barrier to entry. And this is literally a barrier to entry. This is a perfect example. So when you add barriers to entry, it lowers the demand, because even though you want it, it's now harder.

And so the people who are on the fence about wanting it, they're like, well, I was on the fence, now it's going to be a little harder. I'm not going to do it. So I think it will have an impact, but it won't have a massive impact. It certainly won't have the stopping, the hunt invasion.

Yeah, and it's certainly not going to stop people that want to get in here for some business or money-making reason to commit felonies. It's not going to stop the criminals, I guess is my point. Yeah, so that's the part that I care about is the drug trafficking part. The human trafficking is bad, too.

But as far as I can tell, most people that are human trafficked across the border want to be trafficked across the border, except for the kids. I don't know what's going on there. I think sometimes they're used as like, I don't know, shields. Yeah, no, no, that's true.

Unfortunately, that is the case. That's pretty terrible. I really detest that part, but putting that to the side, because I don't know exactly what to do about that, the drug part, it seems like that if we could figure out a way to stop the drugs, we would save a lot of Hondurans' lives, a lot of Peruvian's lives, and a lot of Colombian's lives, because there's a lot of people dying in a lot of Central American countries in order to corrupt their governments enough that they can transfer drugs through Central America, up through Mexico, and then into the United States, where drugs are. I think I was listening to a documentary drama thing, and it was like four to five times more expensive as soon as you across the border.

It might have been more than that, but literally your profit margin goes up by at least four times as soon as you cross the border. So if you were going to make $1,000 on this thing, you're now going to make $4,000, and it might have been higher than that. So, yeah, you're right. And it seems like we could just legalize the drugs.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Get out of here. I know, I'm serious, legalize those drugs. Well, so we are sort of legalizing pot.

I'm interested to see what impact that has. I think really it's Coke now is the main driver. Coke and heroin. Yeah, I thought they're both made of the same drug, right?

Same originating drug. No, no, very different. Is that true? Yeah, yeah.

Coke comes from the coca plant or coca trees, and heroin comes from puppies. Oh, that's right. Yeah. So I thought most of the heroin was coming from Afghanistan.

It does, but yeah, the CIA expressed. It does, but a lot of it still goes there to get here. Hmm. Because that's the best way to get it.

Well, yeah, I mean, you got to think they have existing networks. Oh, yeah. And that's really the crazy part. If I encourage you guys to go watch any of those things about narcos on Netflix, because it's just really crazy, the level of distribution they have there, it's like they have a FedEx.

They have their own DHL service, except it's better. It's better than DHL. And they make so much money that they own the whole government in most of the countries, or at least in most of the provinces and cities in which they operate. They just own everybody.

They either own them because they'll kill somebody, or they own them because they bribe them. Yeah, it's really sad. It's terrible. As a matter of fact, the war on drugs, which started in the 80s and then just got progressively worse, it has seriously destroyed Central America.

If there's one reason to avoid those two particular drugs, it would be to ensure that the lives of the Central Americans continue. Yeah, I would say that that reason over just your own health. I mean, you'll get some damage, but a lot of people are going to die, so. Right.

The number of people that died to get you your heroin and Coke probably has like it's way more harm than we are doing to your body. Yeah, yeah, these stories are horrifying where these kids grow up. It's kind of like growing up in the gang in the US in like an urban environment where you grew up in, let's say like a low income housing area and there's just lots of crime in your area and you get sucked into a gang because you have to. It's like that except the gang controls the government.

And so everyone will kill you instead of just like, you know, the government will come to kill you if you don't join in the party. And you can't go to like a higher branch of the government because the higher branch is just higher up in the organization. Exactly. And you know, I would venture to say I would rather have to live in South Side Chicago than most Central American countries.

Yeah, it's yeah. Seriously, at least in at least in like Chicago, they'd shoot you in the central area. Well, at least in Chicago, you could call the police and they'd be on your side. Usually.

Yeah, usually. I mean, in Central America, you call the police. It's they're on the wrong team sometimes. Yeah, most of the time.

So it's it's a sad situation. I would like to find a way to stop the cocaine from being distributed through there. And I think we've talked about some possible ways to do that. But at the end of the day, the question is, is he going to build the wall or not?

I don't know. It'll help anything, but it'll it'll be a wall. It will definitely be a wall for a period of time until it's not a wall anymore, because we're not paying to maintain it. We don't even pay to maintain bridges and roads.

We're definitely not going to pay to maintain a wall. Oh, that's not true. Nancy Pelosi said that she was OK. And so the most recent updates I've heard about this, the government being shut down, the border wall things that Nancy Pelosi said that the Democrats be willing to give like $1.6 billion to a generic border fund border for the border patrol agents or whatever.

And so, you know, Trump could probably swing that into using it to build part of the wall. But it would not be enough to build the whole wall and there's probably enough strings attached that it'd be really hard to use it on the wall. And and as part of that, there's they're talking about a trillion dollar infrastructure bill, a trillion dollars. And if the infrastructure is not doing a good job, OK, I get it, we should fix it.

Maybe we've put off paying for this stuff for so long that we need to pay for it. But that is just a crazy amount of money. Yeah, do you know what happens at the end of the trillion dollars spending? A trillion more dollars.

Well, you better get ready to spend a trillion more dollars because if you pump that kind of money through the federal government without having that kind of money to back it up immediately, you're going to collapse the economy. Yeah, everyone will become dependent upon that trillion dollars. And then the law of the private sector will shift towards that trillion dollars. Oh, yeah, that's just horrifying.

It's maybe a trillion dollars over like a trillion years. We hereby declare $1 per year for bridges and roads for the next trillion years. I mean, there's a real problem. The problem is that we don't actually fix problems when they come up.

And now we're talking about a trillion dollar bill to go back and fix all the old problem. I mean, I guess I'm for it. Well, I think the problem is we don't we're not smart about when we when we do something new when we put something new in place, we don't put money in the budget to take care of the new thing. We just we're like, hey, get those build it.

And then we forget about it. And then it collapses. And you know, some of these things, I don't understand why we don't if we're if we're spending what? OK, so you're spending a trillion dollars to fix roads.

OK, what if you spent? What if you spent? What is a billion of a trillion dollars? It's like 1%?

Yeah, I believe it'd be less. Yeah, I guess it'd be 1%. OK, so so what if you took 1% of your trillion dollars, which is a billion dollars, which is now it's going to be less than 1% is it? Yeah, it's going to be like 0.1%.

OK, so you're going to yeah, oh, yes, 0.1%. So you're going to just end up with the context. The infrastructure bill would be a trillion dollars and the Trump wall would be point then 0.5% because a trillion dollars is so much money. It's insane.

So we have we're going to spend a trillion dollars. What if we just decided to spend, I don't know, a billion dollars, five billion dollars on research and development to make roads last longer and be cheaper? What if we just instead of wasting all this money doing the exact same thing that we've done for, I don't know, a hundred years, we actually try to make something last, like a long time, you know, Romans cement is still in existence in the ocean. There's still Roman cement made breakers because they used a better kind of cement than we do.

That is insane. And it doesn't surprise me. So I mean, we can do better. We can do better, but it's it.

One of the problems we have is most of the government contracts that are awarded to private companies are done through cost plus contracting. And so the government just kind of has some requirements and they say, this is what we want to do. So just who can who can do this at the cheapest amount and then whatever it will cost you to do it, we'll just pay you a little bit more. And so there's no money that's like, that's like ongoing and spent on research and development to try to make these things last longer or be cheaper or be more efficient.

There's like a hundred different ways that you can make roads last longer and be better and be more efficient. And so it's it's disappointing that because I can already guarantee you, if we spend a trillion dollars, it's just going to be like when Russia spent what? Six hundred billion dollars on the Sochi Olympics. It's how much of it went to oligarch, like three hundred billion.

Oh, definitely, probably more than that. You know, I mean, I think there's reporting about it at the time. I think we should just budget all one trillion dollars into inventing the like teleportation, like in Star Trek. We can do we can do a single.

What are they? Yeah, single Adam. Yeah, we can teleport an atom a very small distance now. No, it's probably not an atom.

It's probably like an electron. No, I really think it's an atom. Let me look this up. So yeah, it's all pretty weird, but a trillion dollars is just it's so much money.

And I just I feel like we're going to we're going to screw it up. If we try to spend a trillion dollars in one big bucket, everyone is going to go after that trillion dollars. In fact, if they do it, I think we should try to go after that trillion dollars because it's literally a trillion dollars. So we should build an infrastructure company, connect with some government contacts and try to figure out how to get some of that money.

Maybe we start an NGO for research and development on improving traffic safety or road, whether I don't know, I bet we could do it trillion dollars. There's no way to have enough time and energy to review all that stuff. Oh, yeah, no, exactly. I'm sure it could be done.

So we'll just need to hire some grant writers, find some grant writers on the internet. And we'll get in that pool. We'll try to get our piece of that trillion dollars. And here we go.

They were able to transport an atom three meters with 100% accuracy. That's horrifying. I'm just it's just horrifying. I mean, it is it is really scary to think.

I mean, basically the system for teleporting you would be destroying you and then putting you back together. Yeah, it is. It destroys you. That's how it works.

You know, I'm so I've been I've been thinking more about consciousness lately and how consciousness works and I'm more and more convinced that consciousness is not a deterministic, empirical phenomenon and that there's there's something there's something non non material about how consciousness works. And so if that's true, then I think we could be transported and maintain our consciousness. However, if I'm wrong, I'm pretty sure you're going to come out the other side of potato. Oh, yeah, definitely.

I mean, if you're wrong about that or even if you're not wrong about that and something goes terribly awry, you may just come out the other side of blank slate. Yeah, there's there's there's very little likelihood in my mind that if you transferred your brain from one location to another one at a time, that the thing that showed up on the other end would be you. Yeah, no, you're going to show up with Parkinson's disease or something. It's if you're lucky.

I think you're going to self destruct. It's going to be it's going to be galaxy quest. Or it could be one of those Star Trek episodes where like the other universe you comes back and it's like, you know, evil red and zen gets switched place in, you know, with good red and zen. I like how we don't really get into Star Trek here, which we probably stopped.

Just one more Star Trek. We just lost another listener. I'm sorry guys, but then we gained another one. So it's okay.

They always say it's so safe, right? There's always some guys like, I'm so afraid of the transporter and everyone makes fun of them because it's so safe. And then there's space leeches that try to get you. You go to the Nega universe.

You're blasted off into, you know, some other Klingon, whatever ship. I would do it. I agree. All right.

Well, I think that's going to do it for this podcast. We appreciate you guys hanging in there with us tonight. Of course, you can always find me on Twitter at realzed. That's our EEL ZED.

Oh, no, the gun went off. Somehow that's related to marijuana. Well, you know, I heard that marijuana can pull triggers. Well, it is the gateway gun.

A podcast that takes political issues seriously, but also isn't afraid to have some fun. All right. Let's start with PETA and how they took over the movie. Showy Cook Support!

The Daily Circus Podcast brings you interviews on events you won't believe are happening in 2018 America. I was getting ready to place a video game for some friends, actually, when I get a call from my mom saying that there are six police cars in her yard wanting to talk to me. So, six police cars? While you're playing video games.

The Daily Circus isn't afraid to get into the real issues on gun control. I want the government to be afraid to start a civil war. I think everyone should want the government to be afraid to start a civil war. I mean, we would all like individuals also not to want to start a civil war.

And of course, the Daily Circus covers the latest on Donald Trump. Because his ego is bruised because if there was Russian interference in the election, even if he had no part in it, then that somehow to him means that he's got to be sad now.
