Pardon The Insurrection

Prepare to be swept away by the political currents of Arizona as D Knight, Carol, and Ty navigate the tempestuous waters of subpoenas and eclipses with a side of irreverent banter. We don't just scratch the surface, we plunge into the deep end of the nation's political saga, examining the subpoenaing of Paul Gosar and Andy Biggs and the undeniable impact of the Roe v. Wade overturn in Arizona. As the state grapples with resurrected pre-Civil War abortion laws, we dissect the reverberations through the lens of Trump's influence claims and Kari Lake's political pirouettes. With the midterm elections looming, we explore how these seismic shifts could alter the national terrain of abortion rights and political power.

But wait, there's more than just heavy politics! We light the fuse on offbeat topics that'll ignite your curiosity and evoke a few belly laughs. From the nation's collective eclipse-gawking (and the subsequent Google surge for "eye pain") to the outlandish travails of hypersexual cicadas, we weave the peculiar and the profound into one wild ride. After all, who else would dare connect the dots between a celestial event that had Trump squinting at the sky and the comical tragedy of lovelorn bugs with a rather unfortunate infection?

Strap in for a journey that's equal parts serious analysis and playful mockery. Share in our fascination with the head-spinning financial saga of Trump's empire, the implications of prevailing abortion restrictions, and the unexpected hilarity of nature's weirdest quirks. Whether it's dissecting Trump's rollercoaster of purported billions or musing on cicadas with STDs, we've got the commentary to keep your mind whirling and your spirits high. Remember, this is Pardon the Insurrection, where the unpredictable is the norm and every episode promises a fresh perspective on the chaos that is our modern world.

...

Speaker 1:

did we talk about um paul gosar getting subpoenaed last week? I don't even remember.

Speaker 2:

I don't think so. I don't think we did, did we?

Speaker 1:

I have no fucking idea it must have happened after we recorded. I look, man, it's been so much going on that I really like time. It just has no like days or just a blur. But yeah, so Gosar and Andy Biggs got subpoenaed from the Arizona State Attorney General about their role in the fake elector plot.

Speaker 3:

I was picturing Jason Biggs.

Speaker 1:

No, andy Biggs not.

Speaker 3:

Or Teddy Biggs.

Speaker 1:

Yeah there you go. You nailed it Way to nail our intro for the podcast, carol except that this is not a visual medium, but Ty's still here. You should just all know that yeah, ty aimed the camera down from her face and now she's fixing her breasts into the zoom camera yes, also, look at this gloriousness.

Speaker 3:

You could kind of under my sweatshirt. One, two, three, four. Hey, this is D-Night, this is Carol.

Speaker 1:

You could cut this stuff under my sweatshirt. One, two, three, four. Hey, this is D-Night, this is.

Speaker 2:

Carol, this is Ty.

Speaker 1:

You're listening to the Pardon the Insurrection podcast. Where are you? I?

Speaker 3:

don't know.

Speaker 1:

We don't pardon, insurrection. Remember. Well, everybody knows that, like, if someone's listening to this podcast, it's like you forgot.

Speaker 1:

And we don't forget it that like if someone's listening to this podcast, and we don't forget it, if someone's listening to this podcast and they're expect, expecting a pro pardon podcast, I can only imagine the severe levels of disappointment that they must be feeling after like one episode of the shit, because we are vehemently anti or anti-insurrection and anti-pardon for insurrectionists. But obviously there's been a lot of developments in the news. We'll get to those momentarily after our obligatory shout out to Sheets and Giggles. Make sure you go to sheetsandgigglescom, pick you up a set of the most delightfully soft and luxurious sheets on planet Earth, those delightfully soft and luxurious sheets on planet earth. She's so good that even if you bad in bed, like these sheets, will make your partner feel like you are awesome, like you would champion in the set. Ty would know because she said she had a lot of amazing sex this morning.

Speaker 2:

I don't know why she felt the need to.

Speaker 1:

I don't know why.

Speaker 3:

Was it too mean to this podcast?

Speaker 1:

yes, yes, it was it'll, it'll tie in momentarily. Trust me on that, uh, because, as you may have heard, uh, that whole roe v wade thing is casting its shadow over the Republican Party. Yes, that's like a play on the fact that we had a national obsession, out of nowhere, with the solar eclipse yesterday. Did either of you two happen to?

Speaker 3:

Out of nowhere. I mean it's pretty cool.

Speaker 1:

I'm at the obsession, right. I didn't actually realize so many people would be excited about a solar eclipse, because so I live in tennessee in in case you somehow didn't know that and I think it was 2016 when we had like one of the last eclipses where, uh, you had like a total eclipse go over the path of the united states and, like the, the line of sight was directly over nashville. So, um, you know, we got the chance to check that out. I happened to be at a place this army supply store where they was giving out some, some free glasses to a few people, so I got to check it out. I mean it's, I guess it's cool, but, to be honest, pictures of eclipses, like really good high quality pictures, are actually better than looking at the thing through the damn glasses. So I guess I'm I'm poo-pooing like an exciting event for hundreds of thousands of people across the country. Shame on me. Um.

Speaker 3:

I had fun and my kids had fun and I saw a nice unverified chart this morning showing an increase of Google searches. For why do my eyes hurt?

Speaker 1:

That is hilarious because I bet, like optometrists all across the country, was sitting there rubbing their hands ready for some money, like an Internet meme or something.

Speaker 1:

It's like yeah, baby, bring on this eclipse. You about to get 150 cent, 150 percent boost in appointments, baby. Why do my eyes hurt? 150% boost in appointments, baby. Why do my eyes hurt? Luckily for us, we have a president in office who doesn't stare directly into solar eclipses, because I feel like, when it happened in 2017, of all the shit Trump had done up until he got into the office, I think you can kind of, if you're pro-Trump, you can kind of like, if you're pro trump, like you can kind of look at, like the porn star thing and the hush money is like, yeah, that's crass, but okay, I would still vote for the guy. Or like conspiring with russia to rig an election. You might look at that and be like you know, he just really wanted to, he was willing to do whatever it takes. You kind of make excuses for that the Muslim ban. You could be like well, you know 9-11, like get the terrorists, even though, like, conflating Muslims with terrorists has got its own problems.

Speaker 3:

You could fast forward like seven years now and you can justify anything by now. Okay, you are fair enough.

Speaker 1:

I'm sorry what I was getting at is like when he looked up at that and stared in the fucking eclipse with no glasses on.

Speaker 2:

That's the moment you got to be like all right, this motherfucker's too stupid to be god I I never tire of that picture when he's, and the way his stupid fucking face. Oh my god, where he's like I.

Speaker 1:

I had a twitter account at the time, um, but I wasn't really active on it like that at that point in time. I must have missed out on it on an absolute glorious day of shit posting, because that was fucking bananas, uh, but more importantly than that. So back to roe versus wade. Since that's been repealed, uh. And of course, um, if you're listening to this, I'm sure you're aware of the news in Arizona. That is going to be a huge issue come November. But if you missed it Arizona Supreme Court they allowed a law from 1864 to go into effect in the state of Arizona, effectively banning abortion in the entirety of the state. And this comes on the heels of Trump taking credit for repealing Roe versus Wade just the day before, even though he lied and claimed Democrats also wanted it. He failed to state whether or not he is for or against a federal abortion ban, totally dodging the fucking question which, you know, seems extraordinarily important given that he's running for president. We kind of need to know these things.

Speaker 3:

Well it was, it was completely on brand and I also think that I mean he's not gonna have any sort of discretion. But I think maybe they're realizing their um, recent trend of being more honest than usual about their plan hasn't been popular, so they may just be going back to lying again. You know, like yeah, yeah, yeah, we would leave it to the states, like what they said before.

Speaker 2:

It should be up to the states and then they, then they can unless they're removing him from the ballot, unless they're removing him from the ballot, and oh yeah, it's, it's state it states rights when it's something convenient for them and it's not states rights when it's something that's inconvenient for them.

Speaker 1:

Got it totally, totally on board with that.

Speaker 1:

Now look, anybody like in the media's obsession here because they couldn't wait to jump on the fact that Trump didn't outright say that he was for a federal abortion ban, which I feel like is insane, given his track record of lying about, like you said, things like when they're inconvenient for him he's totally willing to lie. But also like he, literally in the same couple of sentences, was like yeah, I'm the one who is responsible for the overturning of roe v wade, and then immediately lied after that and said everybody wanted that. No, it was like the least popular decision in in, he was the one of the least popular supreme court decisions in modern history, and like the idea that he's willing to lie about that he's like lying, or he just doesn't have the wherewithal to know that um other people don't always agree with him no, carol, I know he, I know he was lying about that, because the fact that he was willing to like that he wouldn't necessarily go so far as to say, yes, I want a total abortion ban, federal abortion ban or no.

Speaker 1:

I don't Like the way he hedged it. You could only do that if you knew that it was unpopular position with both your base if you, if you don't want to, yeah, and unpopular with the majority of Americans, you, if you don't want to, yeah.

Speaker 3:

And and I'm unpopular with the majority of americans if you do so like he tried it only by psychophants who won't tell you anything but what you want to hear.

Speaker 1:

Uh well, that's why he took credit for it. That that's, that was the sycophant part. Like he couldn't wait to take credit for the supreme court overturning roe v wade, but he threaded the needle with the federal ban, which, which again just proves it like, while he may sometimes be insane, he does have the political savvy, or at least enough, to know that something that's obviously that unpopular is obviously that unpopular well, it seems like a couple of them do, and I mean arizona, the, the uh republican politicians there weren't responding, responding favorably to it either, like they know it's gonna fuck their chances.

Speaker 3:

I mean, I was just reading that carrie lake was like no, this isn't good, we should put it to legislation yeah, well, this is ironic because she's not actually an elected official, though.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, former candidate for governor, like whoop-dee-doo. But yeah, it's ironic because, as she was campaigning in 2022, she's like literally on video saying actually this this, you know, post-civil war ban on abortion. It's awesome, it's great, I love it. She was she, she couldn't get enough of it then, and now that like again, it's like the dog that caught the car. Now that they've got what they were clamoring for all of this time, we're like, actually this shit is super unpopular and we shouldn't take credit for the thing we supported this entire time and hope no one notices. Yeah, look, this is a huge deal.

Speaker 1:

If you're listening to this, maybe you don't live in a state where you know abortion is on the ballot one way or the other. Maybe you live in a blue state where you have, you know, abortion protected on the books. Or maybe live in a red state, like me, where abortions already been made illegal. Like, oh man, what does this Arizona ruling have to do with you? Well, a lot for one. Um, arizona, given the set of circumstances with a number of other swing States.

Speaker 1:

Uh, it could be what decides the white house.

Speaker 1:

It could be the difference between you getting another four years of president Biden or, you know, four years of a biden or, you know, four years of a republican who will institute a federal ban which will affect you regardless of whether you live in a blue state or not.

Speaker 1:

And then also there's a senate seat up for grabs and there is the potential that, with a republic, rather a democratic president and a Democratic-controlled Senate and House, if they were willing to change the rules on the filibuster, they could pass a federal law enshrining Roe v Wade and making sure that, even with red states who have laws in the books manning abortion, that abortion access is made available in those states. So this, could this like this one state could change things for everyone across the country, for better or worse, depending on the outcome and little side note. So there's also going to be at this point, you know there's some groups taking signatures up for a ballot measure to to put abortion access into the state constitution in Arizona, something similar to what's going on in Florida. And you know, theoretically, should things play out like they did in 2020, but Biden wins Florida and Arizona, he could lose Michigan, wisconsin, pennsylvania and North Carolina and Georgia and still win the White House.

Speaker 1:

So yeah you know, if, if abortion or the right to access to abortion is enough to bring people out to vote for Biden or, at least you know, suppress the vote for Republicans in Arizona and Florida and Biden picks those up, he's damn near guaranteed his path to victory in November. So just keep that in mind, guys, his path to victory in November. So just keep that in mind, guys. And again, I hate to minimize, like you know, the effect this will have on people in these states. Like I don't want to take away from that, but you know that is a microcosm of a larger issue. So if you just zoom out a little bit, like, of course this stuff is important to those, the residents of those States, but it also can have.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, on all of us.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, I mean here, I'm in Texas, I'm high risk and and 2001. I had an ectopic pregnancy, that it ruptured before I left the hospital and the last thing that I fucking remember is I was strapped to a gurney, taken to an emergency room and had three fucking procedures, one of which was a DNC. If this had happened today I would not be fucking alive. That my doctor did not have to think about or question whether her license was going to be revoked or that she wouldn't be able to. She gave me the best care and I remember waking up and they explained to me what the fuck had happened and everything that they did.

Speaker 1:

So there's going to be women who were in a similar position as you who are going to make it because these laws are on the books and you know it's not. It's not like like we don't want to make it all about, I mean it's not that. You know, women don't like women get deserve. They deserve to get to make decisions about how they start their families and when and those circumstances. But beyond that, there are a lot of medical procedures involving abortion that exist solely for the health of women and just to have that outlawed as well is going to result in the loss of lives. It's going to be unfortunate and again, I would remain sensitive to that. And also a little side note here I knew I shouldn't have started off with this, because it always brings us down on this Like none of us are excited to talk about this. It's always a bummer and you know we're all. Ties are wrecked now. So that concludes this episode, apart of the insurrection. No, I'm kidding, but yeah, the mood is ruined. We're all sour and somber now.

Speaker 1:

Yeah we were trying to have a fun, cool conversation.

Speaker 3:

About abortion rights being restricted. I did.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, good. Sorry I brought the mood down. No, no, no.

Speaker 3:

She's giving us boobs. They look really nice. Anyway, I guess I wasn't complaining.

Speaker 1:

I was just trying to address the. You know, and I'll never forget this, because when we recorded our first episode it was basically on the eve of, it was like right after Dobbs, and not that I'm not happy to have the opportunity and the platform to talk about it, but fuck, was that heartbreaking to to start off your, your podcasting endeavor was such a dark and dreary moment for just so many people. I mean, just like an example of how fucking deleterious the effects are of that decision, just all these red States who've outlawed abortion, like even in cases of rape and incest. And then you look around and there's, you know, since that decision, there's something like 60,000 pregnancies that resulted from rape. That's insane, like just anyway, I brought the mood down again.

Speaker 3:

I apologize, I will look back to something fun, like how we can be happy about those people's misfortunes, because yeah. No, but it's going to be a galvanizing issue and it's going to bring people to the polls in November, as you were saying yeah.

Speaker 1:

I mean again, I wish we didn't have this issue to run on. I'm not like Republicans, where they're complaining about the border but they want to actually fix it because they want to run on the problem. No, I would much rather not have this problem.

Speaker 2:

That would be great too.

Speaker 1:

Yes, and then, you know, there would be women's lives who were saved, and then we would just have to find something else to run on. In November, let us celebrate and have a joyous occasion at the downfall of others that we hate because they're trash, like the fact that shares of company trump media and technology group shares of that company have completely tanked, losing 53 percent of their value from their high two weeks ago. Uh, I think I'm not sure what it closed at today because I I forgot to check after the stock exchange closed, but I saw it at somewhere around what was it? $3 per share, I mean $37 per share. $3 per share, that's two weeks from now.

Speaker 3:

I didn't have a reference point so I've heard it's gone down like a thousand percent from what you just said Nevermind.

Speaker 1:

No, I think it's at $37 a share, somewhere around there 36 maybe. It was in the 70s two weeks ago at its high, not long after its peak. And I know this is probably eating away at Trump because, like he's not in a position to sell his shares of stock and obviously is going to keep going down and down and by the time he does have the opportunity to sell some shares, the shit it probably won't be worth shit. You know, unless we've got foreign adversaries propping it up.

Speaker 3:

Or it's like an insurance company it's backed by an insurance company that does bonds.

Speaker 1:

Or sells subprime loans. Yeah, can you get an insurance policy on a stock price? I don't know, because it's, because I think it's funny. I mean, it's not funny, obviously it's, it's terrible. But so, like there's this instance for, like collegiate athletes who are projected to go on the draft, right, they can take out insurance against their future contract in the case of injury or something where, even though they haven't made it to the league, like they can take out a contract against what you know their perceived value would be. I wonder if you can take out insurance against like the perceived stock loss I mean, I guess if you're Trump you could against like the perceived stock loss. I mean I guess if you're Trump you could probably short the stock. Oh, that's definitely what he did.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, you could, like you. He can't sell his shares of True Social, but he can have someone else short the stock, knowing that the price is going to fall and try and double dip the stock. Knowing that the price is going to fall and try and double dip anyway, who knows. But his personal stake in the company now is down to a 2.9 ish billion um. That is a 3.32 billion dollar loss from the initial public offering. He he lost a lot of net worth. I know what's really eating away at him is that like this thing finally got him on the bloomberg billionaire list, the launch of his company, and then now, two weeks later, he's off of it it's a short-lived yeah, you know he's.

Speaker 1:

He's such a vain individual. I think was do you remember that story from michael cohen? Uh, talking about how he paid fifty thousand dollars or something to get on um the forbes? 400 or something like that, was it the forbes for? Maybe he paid $50,000 to get like a higher ranking or something like that. The list this dude is willing to go to to seem as though he has more money than he actually does.

Speaker 3:

Well now, I just think that the Forbes 400 list is just for anybody.

Speaker 1:

If he was willing to go through these links to actually engage in good business practices, he would have as much money as he would. You know, as he pretends to be worth, it's beyond insane. Colorado accounting firm the one that did the initial evaluation of the true social company since the merger? Yes, the one I was saying. Did I ask you this? Have you seen the accountant Ty with Ben Affleck in it?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, we spoke about that last week.

Speaker 1:

Yes, well, this guy that he hired is basically like that firm, like it looks like some shit that should be in a strip mall somewhere with like a laundromat next to it, like the chinese restaurant. That's what this shit looks like. It's one dude right and he handles like like he really handles some low revenue companies. The fact that he's handling like a multibillion dollar initial public offering is insane. Also, it appears as though this guy, this financial auditor, has a 100 percent deficiency rate in his evaluations rate and his evaluations. It's like a restaurant getting a hundred percent one-star rates or votes or something.

Speaker 2:

Oh dear.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's not ideal. Not ideal circumstance, I mean. It's not equal, it's not like a one-to-one comparison to like a Yelp review, but it's not ideal. This is not the type of person that you want, looking at the finances of a multi-billion dollar company and not not the truth I'm not surprised that that's the kind of person we found looking at it for him.

Speaker 1:

Yes, it's very ironic, but to give this dude some credit, though he he did accurately express a lot of concerns about the valuation of the company and its ability to make revenue and continue to function. Uh, he was pretty straightforward about the well, the fact that it's a very distressed company and probably won't be around um, so he did that. Kudos to him on at least managing to get that far. I'm surprised they actually kept him after that Cause. Well, obviously this dude can't lie, cause with that comes an sec investigation and potential charges. So you got to kind of keep it on the up and up, especially when this thing is obviously failing. I still don't know how this dude lost 60 fucking million dollars on a website in a year. It's a website. It's not like Twitter where there's like this massive tech organization. It's a regular fucking website. No offense to my guy, christopher Boozy over there at Spoutable he ain't lost no, 60 fucking million dollars building Spoutable.

Speaker 3:

Oh, you said lost and then he said earned. I was like isn't that the point?

Speaker 1:

No, well, it's earned. It didn't Sorry, it's earned. Sorry, I'm distracted.

Speaker 3:

There's a stink bug on my microphone.

Speaker 1:

That's unfortunate All around there.

Speaker 3:

I swear he was just making eye contact with me. I could squish him to death, but he might jump at me.

Speaker 1:

Maybe he was just enjoying watching the podcast.

Speaker 3:

Maybe he's saying something right now, probably broadcasting to all the other stink bugs, and now we're going to have a takeover. I should never have.

Speaker 1:

Let him get this close to the microphone. All right, pardon the stink bug podcast, episode one. Let's go.

Speaker 3:

And we just had a little speculative stink bug spinoff there Carry on.

Speaker 1:

Speaking of bugs, given that we've had the earthquake and then the eclipse and we're set to have, like these std infected locusts, ravaged the country here over the course of the summer. Yeah, you didn't hear I didn't hear they had stds yes, one of the plagues um the theDs and the locusts they combine to make these horny, overly sexual active locusts that are controlled by some zombie.

Speaker 2:

Horny locusts.

Speaker 1:

Like some zombie virus. It's some the Last of Us level type shit. Shut up. You think I'm not making this up. Look at my face Audience. I know you up. Look at my face audience. I know you can't see my face. I was talking to Carol. Where's the joke? No, I reject this why would I make it up? Okay, okay, feel free to google it.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, yeah, I'm gonna look at it, I'm gonna have a panic attack and it's your fault, because you wouldn't let me reject your information I'm sorry you should.

Speaker 1:

You should have got raptured yesterday hate to disappoint you yeah, but you know I'm excited for true, uh, trump's true social, untrue social, like I keep stumbling over that because like I hate. I hate that. Like it's the same shit with like fox news they put news in the fucking title to get you to associate the company with something that's not, it's, it's inaccurate. Um, and this thing with like true social, where it's but it's nothing but lies and but they don't, it's not titled ironically like our podcast. So I hate saying I like to say untrue social. I stumble over that all the time, but I'm eventually going to nail that down, don't you worry, kids. But yes, the fact that, like Trump, had a glimmer of billions of dollars of net worth, he, that he got a little taste of it and is about to lose it, is actually more exciting for me than if he had never gotten it at all.

Speaker 3:

Like it makes me feel better that he was like better to have loved a billion dollars and lost. Never had a billion dollars at all all right shakespeare almost never got to ask trump that.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, he's the Shakespeare fraud.

Speaker 3:

He briefly had $1 billion recorded, even though it was pursuant to one of his frauds, which I'm sure we'll find out why it was a fraud, and then maybe he can be prosecuted for the fake numbers that got him on that list.

Speaker 1:

I think it was closer to $7 billion. It was, you know, high. Six billion, um, yep, and and it was almost there, almost. I mean. Can you imagine how fucked up it is to feel like, yeah, I'm worth seven, almost seven billion dollars on paper and then you can't get any money out of it and then you lose all of that, like I would lose my shit, to be honest. All right, can we like rather roam off topic for just a second?

Speaker 3:

Yeah, because you got me looking up Cicada STD.

Speaker 1:

OK, this is more on topic than that, but like, can you imagine trying to run for president as you're facing all these fucking criminal trials, as you're facing all these fucking civil trials and you just lost like two and it's gonna cost you over half a billion dollars? But you also are like trying to scheme your way into making this website that you know is losing money that was only being held afloat by this loan from russians some shady ass russians that are also connected to a plot to try and remove biden from office. Like, and you're trying to get this thing to just like limp along and to get, you know, make it to this spec merger, after the spec merger was under criminal investigation and and had was found by the sec. And you're like, oh, we finally made it. Now I've got my fucking six billion dollars. And then you're like watching that deteriorate every single day and it's like it's only been two weeks and now it's worth half the money, and now you can't even sell it.

Speaker 1:

And you're like, how in fucking sane must this be driving him like, how does he like what kind of sociopath must he be to be able to even function with all of this shit going on? And then his wife hates him and he won't let Lauren Bobert suck his dick no more. His ex-wife died, he had a barrier on the golf course and then Melania's mom died and he don't eat, probably don't even know her fucking name, you know. And then she was like got here by chain migration. He hates fucking immigrants. Like for the man to continue to just wake up every day and exist Like I don't even. I don't think I could even, just like I wouldn't get out of bed.

Speaker 2:

That energy, the exhausting fucking energy that he has just to fucking hate, is incredulous to me, like I don't understand it.

Speaker 1:

I don't understand it, I don't get it and but part of it, part of it ain't even hate, right he's. He is at this point running. He's just like this is his existence on the line, right, because he could be going to jail. Like, if he loses his election, he's going to jail, he's definitely going broke. Uh, he won't be able to have the powers of the federal government to protect him from all these civil judgments or these trials, like. But even with all that pressure, if I was in the same situation, I might be curled up in the bed like a fucking baby, sucking my thumb because this is, it's bananas, like that.

Speaker 1:

He is able to stand in front of a camera and try and pretend to recite some crazy shit Like I honestly don't know how he has it in him. Well, actually I say that, but if you watch his speeches here lately at the few rallies that he's held, he's clearly not holding it together. He's actually crazy. He says crazy shit, like like the doubling day. Like first of all, when he called immigrants animals the other day. And then not only did he like call immigrants animals, he like doubled down on it to the point where he was like I you know, I know they say I shouldn't do it, they say I shouldn't cut. But but they animals. You know his fucking thing. He like he's totally lost it, except for today when he was trying. Well, yesterday, when he was trying to walk back the federal abortion ban, for some reason, that was like the point in which he decided to get it together.

Speaker 3:

All right back on topic here I got distracted because I had to read about the fucking cicadas, but I just want you to know that it says that the spores that are growing on them produce an amphetamine. So I'm imagining there's going to be trillions of fucking amphetamine cicadas flying around making people start eating them and becoming hypersexual. But if part of the deal of the hypersexual hypersexuality fungal std is that your genitals are actually replaced by the fungus, so all of your mating is unsuccessful, just but you by you I mean a cicada- yes, exactly way to clarify that.

Speaker 1:

That's important information.

Speaker 3:

This is a cicada disease and and they won't make more cicadas because all their freaking junk falls off yeah, our our listeners need to know that that doesn't apply to their genitalia like your vagina. Get in. There'll be a lot of cicadas and then they'll die. Yes, your clit is more safe than the cicada STD.

Speaker 1:

Your vagina's not going to fall off. Your dick's not going to shrivel up and turn into fungus. That's very important information for our audience, who clearly came here to talk about cicada STDs.

Speaker 3:

Well, you've made me mad.

Speaker 1:

No, I was just saying that.

Speaker 3:

Okay. So anyway, the next thing of stuff, yeah, Perfect transition.
