gutentag who is my idol so many I really like ulysses s grant he's probably the most American American ever made in America what does your hoodie signify the God Tyr namaste will you be watching the NBA playoff that probably will I see used to be huge Nuggets fan back when George Karl was the coach and then when they fired him I said I'll never watch the Nuggets again ever and I haven't not a single game don't even know who plays you seem extremely patriotic I am pre except for the times I'm not would you write a book yeah I've gotten a lot of offers one of these days I will is the Antarctica trip back on I've always going to go to Antarctica next year though would you smoke a doobie was Jill Rogan oh no he probably should do some other recreational substances I don't care if the Nuggets got a great young team now you don't fire George Karl coach of the year and they fired him it was great every year he was there even the year he had cancer they made the playoffs kind of loyalty yeah luck hungry Charles he I am [ __ ] hungry we're so close to yes you guys see that so close makes me happy favorite coffee there's plenty of good coffees out there in dunya I used to live in Indonesia Indonesia is a great thing I was in Jakarta and debauch City and the island of Java makes tons of coffees a beautiful beautiful place to be and fun to ride a motorcycle through but it's not necessarily where the coffee comes from it's more how its prepared so it has to be roasted at a certain temperature you have to brew it around 200 degrees Fahrenheit and manual drip hand drip that's the way to go then you'll have a great cup of coffee did Epstein kill himself no he was killed Epstein was one of those guys his job was to get leverage on people and when he became inconvenient he suffered the fate of all inconvenient people is ADA gonna be around in five years we built it to be around in 50 I'm still stuck on the Biden plug I didn't plug for Biden I don't like that guy at all man he's a piece of crap 50 years in government last 12 years eight of them he was the number two guy and he says he's to change candidate absolutely not he's just an empty suit so that people can use him to basically the order the hell they want to do it's nuts it's absolutely absolutely nuts and that's not change the whole whole thing is that the only reason that people are voting form is they don't like Trump they don't they can't name a single policy they can't name a single position they can't even one thing they like about they just don't like Trump and they want to get rid of him so there you go because a whole world woke up and said this guy's a bad dude they spent three years basically focusing on all the negative things Mark Cuban chili for Joe Biden yeah a lot of people are because when you become president you get to decide how 5,000 jobs get filled over 5,000 jobs or political appointees by the US president there's a lot of people that are gonna get nice and nestled next to that pretty old ass to ask for a job Cubans looking for something in the cabinet because he wants to run in 2024 but wins he can't run for reelection he'll be too old and too demented are we winning Africa more than you think I might have very good news for you in a few days on that or right at the end of something yangyang not a fan of ubi nikki Haley will run for POTUS yes she will yes you will many will Charles do you think there will be a second kovat wave we have over a hundred and forty vaccine candidates and three of them look very promising AstraZeneca has one advisor has another that it's looking really good and they're already in stage two or three so we should have one by the end of the year early next year just so we'll get a second wave because of flu season in the wintertime but it'll probably be of equivalent damages the current one we have room des aveer and all these drugs now we're much better at treating ard s one of the funny things they say oh the ICUs are all filled in at capacity last year it's like most important anyway hospitals don't make money if ICU beds are not at full capacity they don't just leave them empty forever guys there's always something in the ICU and they're not all covered patients because people have car accidents people have heart attacks people got cancer that causes multi organ failure go figure Charles how did you meet Phil Wadler how did you convince him to join the team called up Phil and said hey would you like to join the team and he said yes I said ok when can you start he said when would you like to and I said how about Tuesday and he said now Wednesday's better and I said ok alright Wednesday works for me and that was pretty much it Macallan Macallan Macallan Macallan Macallan 30 Charles I worry you get enough sleep yeah not at all do you ever see ADA overtaking BTC someday yeah it's on the cards Theodore Roosevelt the most favorite and the most American American yeah he was pretty

dropped it maybe pull it out till it focuses in just does not want to focus why I have her in a power I have no idea who knows okay who's your favorite president yeah there's been a lot Lincoln was a great president he rose to the occasion and dealt with a pretty poor hand and that he didn't even really have a chance to be a real president cuz he got shot right after the Civil War ended but he probably would have done a great job with reconstruction much better than Johnson who was a monster I really admire George Washington he had an enormous character as a person Thomas Jefferson was probably one of the most scholarly and learnand of presidents but he was a deep deeply conflicted man Garfield was very underrated and it's a shame he was shot it was actually killed by his doctors they tore down John C Calhoun every tear every statue down guys is if you tear down this they turned down statues of people who were slaves they just have no [ __ ] clue what's going on man they really don't these people William Henry Harrelson yeah go make a big speech and then die of pneumonia a month later poor guy Harrelson and Tippecanoe - I think was the campaign slogan and John Tyler I think to go over after he died what about Ronald Reagan dude he ran for president of a lot he ran 1968 he ran 1976 and then again 1980 in 1984 in the 68 around against George Romney Mitt Romney's dad and Richard Nixon and Nelson Rockefeller 76 he actually ran against what what was his name Gerald Ford for the nomination sound you might be high on ketones you might be right there Michael that's why
